Chapter 57: Shock
Concubine Yue was worried, and from that day on, the dome was even more silent. In addition to the daily work arrangement, the rest of the time is practiced on the back slope.
In addition to not letting Qiong'er go down the hill, Yue Jinsheng is indispensable for her to practice martial arts every day. It's just that there is estrangement between the two, and even Concubine Yue and Mama Yun sigh that fate makes people.
The days flowed like this between the crazy growth of the dome itself, and September arrived, and the autumn wind had already risen in the grasslands of the north.
Mama Yun gave Qiong'er a piece of cloth and some cotton wool, and asked her to sew her own jacket for the winter. Taking advantage of the good afternoon sunshine, Qiong'er sat on the edge of the hillside, sewing winter clothes for herself.
A lame figure came from a distance, stopped at the bottom of the slope, raised his head and asked in a soft voice, "Ugly slave, do you make winter clothes?" ”
Knowing that the ugly slave would not answer her, the lame slave girl sat down the slope by herself. Ever since that day, the slave girl had come to the hillside every day to talk, and although the ugly slave never paid attention to her, she did not let her go. She knew that she was not qualified to go uphill, and she never dared to force it.
She just said to herself that she used to be from the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and her father turned out to be a big official in the south of the Moon Dynasty, and he was in charge of a place. She has been learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, and is in charge of the inner house. She has a childhood sweetheart, who is the son of their family's family friend. She could have had a noble status, a rich life, and a lovely child.
But her father was wronged, and her home was raided overnight. The whereabouts of his father and mother are unknown, and his brother is unknown.
Qiong'er heard how unwilling this cripple was in his heart, the golden branches and jade leaves fell into the dust, it hurt to think about it! It's a pity that the goal that can save her is not herself, looking at the figure walking back in the distance, Qiong'er packed up the needlework in her hand and got up to leave.
The cripple seemed to have just seen Yue Jinsheng return, stood up in a panic, and shyly greeted the third prince. Yue Jinsheng glanced at the distant back of Qiong'er, raised his eyebrows, and talked to the slave girl with a pleasant face.
After dinner, Yue Jinsheng told Concubine Yue that he was about to hunt in autumn.
Concubine Yue knew that the annual autumn hunt was not just for hunting, so she muttered for a moment and said, "You don't have to fight with them, just shoot some prey at will!" ”
Yue Jinsheng nodded indifferently, "I don't want to fight for anything, as long as they are willing to let me go!" Turning his head to look at the quiet and decorative dome, "I'll take the ugly slave!" ”
Concubine Yue looked at Qiong'er in surprise, take her? Do?
"I need someone who can keep a vigil for me, someone I can trust!" Yue Jinsheng stared at Qiong'er's eyes and said in a deep voice.
Can you trust yourself? Qiong'er's eyes were waveless, but her heart moved, can she go hunting?
Concubine Yue and Mama Yun winked at each other, vigil?
……
On a crisp autumn day, the Great Khan personally brought 5,000 elite cavalry, as well as more than 1,000 warriors from each of his five sons, and 10,000 mighty cavalry to leave the tribe.
Riding on a horse and following the team's dome, he saw what the real north wind was blowing, and the autumn grass was yellow. Obviously, when I mentioned autumn hunting before, it was still green, but it was only a dozen days of work, and from the tribe to the outside, it was already golden everywhere.
I haven't ridden a horse for many years, and I was still a little uncomfortable when I first climbed into the dome of horses, and I quickly regained the feeling of being together. Under the strange eyes of all the elite riders, he followed closely by Yue Jinsheng's side, only half a horse's head slower.
Qiong'er has been exercising herself diligently in the past two months, and the time spent practicing is several times more than the time spent eating and sleeping together. The posture is not stiff a lot, and her temperament has changed a lot unconsciously, and the cold arrogance of that body has become more and more connected with Yue Jinsheng.
Yue Jinsheng glanced at the skilled Qiong'er, and the color in his eyes darkened a little. Often some people can't understand this girl, can understand multiple languages and read without barriers, but the writing is ugly. The behavior is quite educated, but he can wash his hands, make soup, sew and mend like a servant. The killing technique she used in the dark was not a trick taught by herself, indicating that she had been taught before, but when she picked her up more than two years ago, she was obviously still a rookie.
Not to mention horseback riding?
The Moon Dynasty women rode horses less, and even men rarely could control the horse breeds in the North, which is why the Moon Dynasty cavalry was weak and had a kind attitude towards the North! Yue Jinsheng glanced vaguely at the northern wild horse under the crotch of the dome, this horse was not long after they came back, the temperament is very wild, even if it can put on the saddle, it never lets people ride, this girl rides steadily!
He didn't know who pulled the horse out and gave it to the dome, but what did the man want to test her? And where did she come from? Why does the mother always stop talking to herself, and Xiao's entrustment
After galloping for half a day, the mighty team stopped in front of a meadow.
The Great Khan Honglie Yuan was dressed in military uniform, and his sturdy figure looked even more vigorous on a tall horse with a dark body. Tima came to the front and took out a huge iron gall bow from his back, such a heavy bow could not be pulled by ordinary people, but Hong Lieyuan was full in one pull.
The tip of the arrow pointed straight into the sky, and after a buzzing sound, a bird hit the ground.
There was a moment of silence and pause, "Great Khan, Heavenly Khan!" Great Khan, Heavenly Khan! The deafening cheers instantly resounded in the sky. The dome was also touched by such a strong breath, and drank with the cry! However, she acted as a personal guard behind Yue Jinsheng, and she never ignored the mutual exchange of eyes of the princes in front of her, full of fear.
It turns out that the Great Khan performed so hard just to directly deter his sons by force?
It seems that this hunt is really not a simple hunt!
Qiong'er admired in her heart, no matter which dynasty or generation in history, the emperor and prince were in a high position and covered the sky with one hand, but under the illustrious life, there were all kinds of precautions and calculations. However, the opponents they fear the most are often not their enemies, but their sons and relatives who always want to replace them!
It's hard to prevent it!
"The autumn hunt begins!" A roar came from the mouth of the Great Khan, announcing the purpose of their visit.
The eldest prince turned his horse's head and said to Yue Jinsheng, "Third brother, you are participating in the autumn hunt for the first time this year, don't let your father Khan down!" After saying that, his eyes bypassed Yue Jinsheng and looked at the ugly slave behind him, "Hunting is dangerous, it's not child's play, the third brother should leave this female slave behind!" ”
The fourth prince taunted with a smile on the horse's head, "The third brother is reluctant to give up his precious slave girl, and the eldest brother still doesn't have to persuade him!" The four princes all understood what the master meant, and laughed aloud, watching the elite riders of the third prince's department teasing each other.
