Chapter 124: An innocent girl
I heard someone call Jieli Laozi.
Li Chengqian couldn't help but look back suspiciously.
I saw a little girl about my age in the prisoner of war camp.
Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and walked over.
When he got closer, Li Chengqian began to look her up and down.
The little girl wore a silver forehead ornament around her white neck and a bright red gown.
Her appearance may just be a little delicate.
But her clear eyes reveal a kind of innocence that people will never forget when they see it.
Li Chengqian tilted his head and asked with a smile: "Do you understand what I say?" β
The little girl glanced at Li Chengqian, and nodded innocently on her face.
"What's your name?"
"No worries."
"Worry-free ......"
"That's a great name."
Li Chengqian pointed to Jieli, who was escorted away, and asked, "He's yours...... Atta? β
"Hmmm......"
The little girl nodded innocently again.
Li Chengqian couldn't help laughing.
It seems that Jieli doted on this daughter very much.
Otherwise, it can't be so naΓ―ve.
She didn't seem to know what it meant to her to be here.
Li Chengqian slowly squatted down and looked at the little girl: "Do you know what kind of place this is?" β
"Prisoner of War Camp ......"
The little girl looked at Li Chengqian, her little brows furrowed tightly.
"Do you know what it means to you when you enter a prisoner of war camp?"
The little girl shook her head.
She didn't know what the enemy was.
She didn't know why there was a war in the world.
She was the daughter of Jieli when she was forty years old, and she was loved from birth.
Under Jieli's favor, he is as white and flawless as a flower quietly blooming in the cold wind, innocent.
See her like that.
Li Chengqian shook his head and sighed.
In such an era, if a woman is captured by an enemy country, then the fate is very miserable.
Those with low status will be thrown directly into the army barracks to serve as military prostitutes.
Those with high status will also be thrown into the inner teaching workshop and become official prostitutes for others' enjoyment.
To be honest, seeing this girl's innocent appearance, he was really moved by compassion.
Li Chengqian turned to the soldier beside him and said, "This person, I want it." β
It was also common for the prince to ask for two prisoner of war women in this era.
And being taken away by the prince and grandson is better than being sent to the church as an official prostitute.
As soon as Li Chengqian's words came out, the woman who could understand Li Chengqian's words hurriedly showed pleading eyes.
"Your Highness, take me away too, please."
"Laundry, cooking, picking up manure and watering, I can do anything."
Face these voices.
Li Chengqian could only choose not to hear it.
Truth be told, he also wants to save these people.
But can he save one, two, or even ten or twenty, can he save tens of thousands?
Instead of saying these useless things to the other person.
He might as well pretend he didn't hear.
Tang Pawn on the side heard Li Chengqian's order, opened the floodgates, and pointed to Wuwu: "You, come out." β
Wu Wu didn't know what was going on, he stood still and didn't move, just looked at the Tang pawn with a worried face.
When the pawn went in to pull her, she showed a look of fear, turned and ran.
This time, it can make that Tang pawn angry enough.
But because Li Chengqian has already asked for it by name.
He can't just do it with his hands.
Therefore, he could only follow in.
grabbed the little girl by the back of her neck and slipped out like a chick.
looked at Li Chengqian without worry or grievance, and was about to cry.
Li Chengqian pretended to be fierce: "Do you dare to cry and try?" β
The little girl was startled, pursed her lips, and didn't dare to speak.
Li Chengqian rolled his eyes: "Okay, you can follow me in the future, at least you won't be bullied and eat and drink." β
After speaking, Li Chengqian turned around and left.
He thought that the little girl would follow him.
Who knows, this little girl is still standing in place, motionless.
"Hey ......"
"I'm saving your life."
"What's the matter, you little girl still doesn't appreciate it?"
Li Chengqian tilted his head and looked at the worry-free.
Carefree lowered his head timidly, and whispered: "The finch is still inside......
"Sparrows?"
"Who's the finch?"
Li Chengqian was a little puzzled.
"The finch is a little slave given to me by Atta."
A carefree explanation.
The little slave is nothing more than a maid.
Li Chengqian rolled his eyes: "Didn't I say that you girl has to make inches?" β
"And let me help you save the maid? You are crazy? Or are you floating? β
The little girl didn't speak, still keeping her head down.
Li Chengqian couldn't help her, so he simply shouted: "Who is called Que'er?" β
An older woman hurriedly responded.
Li Chengqian turned his head to look, and the woman in front of him looked about twelve or thirteen years old.
Although he was wearing Turkic clothes, he had a pure Han face.
Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you from the Central Plains?" β
Finch nodded.
At this time, Li Chengqian began to carefully look at the people in the camp.
He found that there were many of them, all dressed in Turkic costumes but with Han Chinese faces.
These are obviously from the Central Plains.
Bowing his head and groaning for a while, Li Chengqian suddenly remembered.
When the Sui destroyed Chen, they took many women from Jiangnan and sent them to the Turks in exchange for war horses.
After the Tang Dynasty destroyed the Sui Dynasty, many families opposed to the Tang Dynasty went to the Turks to settle down.
It's no wonder that there are these Turkic people with Han Chinese faces......
Li Chengqian shook his head helplessly.
This was their own choice.
Now that he has become a prisoner of war, who can blame him?
Li Chengqian is not a holy white lotus.
Thinking about these things is also only adding to the troubles.
In the end, Li Chengqian simply left the prisoner of war camp with Wuwu and Qi'er and returned to his place of residence.
His current job is to look after prisoners of war.
When the time comes, Li Shimin tells him what to do, and he will do it again.
But counting the days, Li Shimin should not be able to stay here for a few days.
Because of the capital, I'm afraid something big is about to happen.
Li Chengqian rubbed his chin: "My third brother should be about to die......
Who could his third brother be?
Naturally, it was Li Zhi.
But now Li Zhi is still in the belly of the eldest grandson queen.
According to the words of the imperial doctor, the delivery will be within this month.
β¦β¦
In fact, Li Chengqian's guess was right.
After Li Shimin learned the news, he had already begun to think about returning to Chang'an.
It's just that the war is going on at a critical time, and he can't get out.
But this time Li Chengqian's conspiracy really gave him a big surprise.
Especially after learning that the front line had broken through Jieli's tooth tent, he kept sending a message to ask Li Jing if he had caught Jieli.
After all, he made a vow to let Tuli dance and Jieli to compose poetry.
Some time ago, Tuli had already announced his surrender, and his oath was already halfway fulfilled.
Now everything is ready, and only one is missing.
And when Hou Junji escorted Jieli to come.
Li Shimin was even more pleasantly surprised to go out of the city to see it in person.
Seeing the embarrassed appearance of Lao Jieli, Li Shimin smiled very unkindly.
"Jieli, Jieli, have you ever thought that you have today?"
When he saw Jieli, Li Shimin's mind flashed all that was the appearance of him walking proudly on the bank of Weishui before.
But two years later, he became his own prisoner.
Jieli looked up at Li Shimin, full of bitterness: "Li Shimin, I admit it, you won." β
"But I don't admit it, I lost to you......"
