Chapter 26: Marriage Revealed (4)
The horse walked along a forest, and the Gobi field in winter looked quite empty, the grass and trees were withered and yellow, and even the sunlight shone with a foggy light. But the distant silhouette of the desert forms a mysterious background element, a soft beauty that has never been seen before.
The kings rode so fast that An Ning felt his bones fall apart on his horseback, and their rampage alarmed the wild dogs, wild cats, and rabbits in the woods.
"You brought me out just to ride a horse?" An Ning felt that the horse's speed felt like an arrow was flying, not much slower than the arrow she shot.
"It's not all. The king's breath of speech passed through the ears of tranquility, and when he saw the rabbit running on the meadow, he reined in the reins of his horse and said, and the horse slowly stopped. The kings turned over and dismounted, and An Ning also stepped on his crotch and dismounted, and the kings handed An Ning the bow and arrows prepared in advance, and took the other one in his hand, "There are a lot of hares here, I have to compare with you, which of us has the most accurate archery." ”
"Oh......!" An Ning was interested, "the idea is very much in line with me. She said as she searched into the distant woods, searching for her target to appear.
First, the kings locked on the hare behind the woods, and then set up an arrow at the bow and arrow, and set the standard direction, and An Ning also sensed the direction of the other rabbit, and made the same movement as the kings, aiming ahead. The king's arrows flew at the hare, An Ning drew his bow and arrows, concentrated all his spirits, and set the arrows out, but the hare got into the secret woods and ran away without a trace, An Ning drooped his face and put away the bow and arrows.
"Enough picnics for tonight. "We must find a village and offer delicious rabbit meat to my beautiful young lady." ”
"I love archery, but I don't like rabbit meat. An Ning said, "Let's go back, it will soon get dark." ”
"Don't you think the beauty of the good day is suitable for both of us?" said the king, smiling, "and I have no intention of going back when I bring you out." So saying, he tied the hare in his hand to his horse, and laid away his bow and arrows.
"Is it okay?" said Anning, "my father will send troops out to find me when he sees that I am not returning at night, and they don't know where we have gone. ”
"When my men see us coming out, your father will not fear for your safety. The king explained, and he lifted An Ning up on his horse, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Let's go to our next destination." After saying that, a faint smile tugged at the corner of his mouth and he got on the horse, which made An Ning feel very uneasy.
The increasingly dense twilight shrouded the boundless forest in dark gray shadows, and the night sky, which gradually darkened, looked quiet and gentle, and a few lonely stars dotted the dome. At this time, there was a gurgling sound in the woods, and An Ning and the kings heard it, and An Ning became nervous, "Prince, let's go back." ”
"Don't be afraid if I'm here, let's go and see. The kings mounted their horses and walked in the direction from which the voice came. It felt like the sound of horses' hooves came from the front, not only one, but when they walked in, An Ning recognized it, it was Xuenuo, and An Murong, I was really glad that they appeared at this moment, which was enough to see from An Ning's expression.
The king's lips wrinkled together in anger, he stared at Snow in front of him, and reprimanded, "Haunted fellow, did you do it on purpose?"
"What's wrong with me coming to find my fiancée?" Snow said sharply, not putting up with the prince at all, after speaking, he dismounted, walked into the king's horse, and looked at Anning, "My beautiful fiancée, you should dismount, a woman who has a marriage contract really shouldn't ride the same horse with another man so late." ”
"So what?" said the king, holding Anning with both hands, without the slightest intention of letting him dismount, "I will take Miss Anning to camp here." ”
Snow's eyebrows furrowed, his eyes burning with rage, and he pulled the king off his horse, and the king fell to the ground with an "oops", and An Ning rolled off his horse.
The king hurriedly rose and drew from his waist his long sword, which had been cleverly miniaturized to suit the needs of a fifteen-year-old boy, and An Ning saw that the sword was made of stainless steel, glowing red, with blades on both sides, the hilt of the sword wrapped in leather, and the tail end was a lion head made of gold. He pointed his sword at Snow, and he looked back at the vicinity, "The snow wolf didn't come with you today, and you are dead." ”
"Just let it go. Snow roared, without the slightest sense of fear, "My snow wolf will definitely know that you killed me, I can guarantee that the archers of the entire royal court will not be able to stop it, and it will definitely let you pay for your life before it dies." ”
The king grinned, he took his sword, inserted it into the sharpening, frowned and nodded, "Okay, count me unlucky." So he climbed over his horse, "Your fiancée has been handed over to you, and you must keep an eye on him, and you will not be able to find him easily next time." With that, he led his horse and galloped into the secret forest.
"Prince. An Ning called, "Wait for me." Seeing that the kings did not look back, she crossed over Snow and said to An Murong, "Brother, let that stupid pig ride a horse with you, I have something important to tell the prince, I will go back before dark." After saying that, she drove her crotch and dismounted, chased after her, and ran for a long time before she caught up with the kings, "Prince...... Prince....... ”
When the king saw that An Ning was chasing after him, he slowed down his horse's gallop, and when An Ning was with her, he turned his head and said, "You should go back with your fiancé." The expression was impatient.
"I have something important to tell you. An Ning said seriously.
"Oh?" the kings tensed their faces, waiting for An Ning to speak.
"I want to intercede for those women who have a child. An Ning said.
"What do you mean?" the king suspected, "I don't quite understand. ”
"I see today that many of your men have been taken from outside, and men will be your slaves in the future, and women will be tools for bearing children. ”
"So what?" said the kings impatiently, "this is normal, what kind of person should accept what kind of fate, for example, me, I am the prince above ten thousand people, and in the future, I must be admired by ten thousand people." ”
"Your army of the Red Fangs is strong enough that there is no need to increase the population in these ways, don't you think these are cruel to a woman?"
"How are you like your fiancé's master, full of nonsense. The king's face turned red, "The law of my Red Tooth people has been made for hundreds of years, and it has always been like this, and no one can change it. After speaking, he shook his head speechlessly, "I thought you followed me to tell me that you were willing to camp with me, I have never been so delusional about a woman, you are the first, only an instant time, I can't get you, I have a feeling of death, I didn't expect to hear this from your mouth, which reduced my desire by more than half." He galloped away on his horse, "Go find your fiancé, don't follow me." His voice echoed through the woods, where the centaurs had vanished.
Anning felt lonely and annoyed, so she had to return to the city alone, knowing that Angel must be waiting for her in her room. Judging by the attitude of the kings, the law of the Red Fang man has lasted for so many years and no one can change it, and the king's habits are even more cruel than those of his father. Thinking that her sister would share a bed with someone like the kings for the rest of her life, the hairs on her whole body would stand on end, and her tears fell from the thought of it. She just wants her sister to have a good life as the fairy tale depicts, but why should she marry a cruel and vicious king, her sister was originally a sweet, elegant and kind girl.
An Ning couldn't figure out how Angel, who was conceived in the same mother's body at the same time, could have such a big personality. She is almost as timid as a cat, and the meekness and well-being of the cat are fully reflected in her. She was as thin as a bony tree, and there was no place like twins except for her height and peace. When An Ning was very young, she couldn't help but ask her mother if she was mistaken, could it be some kind of eccentric who took her real sister away, but her mother only smiled, and then said that there was no such thing, Angel and her were indeed twins, and An Ning couldn't think of any reason for her mother to lie to her, so she took her words seriously.
