Chapter 14: Captured (2)
The vermilion carved wooden windows seeped in warm beams of light, scattered on the soft collapse. The blue gauze tent swayed with the breeze, bringing in some delicate floral fragrance. Yu Tianjiao was only wearing a red single dress, draped in soft black hair, holding a silver-inlaid jade wine glass, the crimson bead chain squirmed with the movements of her arms, she smelled the wine in the cup again, the fragrance of the wine slowly wandered on the tip of her nose, she seemed to be drunk, her eyes were blurred. Good wine, just like she is in the mood right now.
Xiao Han rubbed her shoulders on the side, and he said, "Princess, why don't you just kill her?" "This she refers to Yu Tianqing.
Yu Tianjiao's voice was no longer clear, and she was a little intoxicated, and she said, "Why did you kill her?" Wouldn't it be better to keep her alive? Let her live to see me snatch the throne that belongs to her! My mother said that she would not pass the throne to me that day, and look, tomorrow, tomorrow, I will sit on the throne! ”
A hint of fierceness flashed in her eyes, Mother, do you see that? Even without you, I would still be able to sit on the throne!
A trace of unnaturalness flashed on Xiao Han's face, the people sent this time were originally going to take Yu Tianqing away and imprison him, but for some reason, he killed the soldiers of the Desert Country halfway. In the end, they had no choice but to abandon Yu Tianqing and escape, only imprisoning the little girl beside Yu Tianqing. Let's keep this matter from the princess. Anyway, she is going to ascend to the throne, and she is the only Heavenly Sage. Let's wait until it's over!
Moguo Barracks
There were several elderly cooks in the barracks' dining room, and a little girl named Ayili. Yu Tianqing stayed with her all day. Ayili has a round face, a little baby fat, and a pair of apricot eyes that are big and round, but she is 15 or 6 years old, and she is very disciplined. As soon as she stepped into the tent, she took out a small paper bag from her arms and handed it to Yu Tianqing
"Sister Wang, it's for you."
Yu Tianqing opened it and saw that it was a few pieces of dim sum. The barracks are already hard, and it's good to be fed, but snacks are quite luxurious.
"Let's eat together." Yu Tianqing handed Ayili a piece, and the two sat on the ground and ate it.
"I heard that we will be pulling out the camp the day after tomorrow."
"Why?" Yu Tianqing's heart froze, and she asked with a pretended relaxed face.
"The lord of the Beauty Villa has asked His Majesty the Emperor for peace!"
Seeing that Yu Tianqing lowered her head and didn't speak, Ayili explained: "The original lord of Beauty Villa has abdicated and passed the throne to the eldest princess Yu Tianjiao. ”
Looking up at the sky, it was still spring, and the sun was dazzling, but Yu Tianqing seemed to be in a white and vast isolated island wilderness. Thousands of mountains and birds, thousands of paths are unmanned, and they are alone to meet the cold of winter twilight. She suddenly understood why the palace maids waiting in the Purple Qi Hall were the same size as her, it turned out that at the critical moment, they could still play the role of her Yu Tianqing! These palace maids who are close to her know all her habits, and as long as they change their faces, she can do whatever she wants. Abdication, rather than fighting for the throne by force, comes faster and more directly, with little effort.
The day after tomorrow, she has two more nights to escape. In the past few days, she has already figured out all the locations of the military camp, and she also knows the time of the soldiers' change of guards. Soon, soon. She'll run away.
"You two come here, there's going to be a bonfire tonight, come and help." A slightly chubby cook shouted.
Yu Tianqing and Ayili ran over.
As it darkened, rows of bonfires lit up. Roasted whole lamb has an enticing aroma. Rows of soldiers sat neatly on the ground. Someone began to sing, and the song was long and long. Several soldiers danced swords with singing, and there was a scene of singing and dancing everywhere.
Yu Tianqing picked up a kitchen knife on the board, this is a knife for carving, smaller than an ordinary kitchen knife, and picked up a hat hanging on the tent. At this moment, it is the time when the entire barracks guards are at their weakest. She quickly ran out of her tent and toward the west. She had seen the map when she was in Kitaguchi Castle, and to the west was a forest, which was best for hiding.
Yu Tianqing had just run a few steps and found that it was even smoother than she imagined!
"Oops," she suddenly bumped into a human wall. She narrowed her eyes and looked up. I saw a pair of eyes as vast as the sea staring at her.
"Will... General." Yu Tianqing stammered.
"Where's the little girl?" His voice was very calm, unexpectedly pleasant.
"I... I'm going to put on a show for the general! Yu Tianqing waved the kitchen knife in his hand, and the sharp knife shot out a cold light.
"You're on the wrong track, come with me." Bei Zhiyao held one hand behind his back, and walked towards the front.
"Not leaving?" Seeing that Yu Tianqing didn't move, the man stopped and said.
Yu Tianqing followed sullenly, feeling embarrassed. If he escapes and is caught, will he hack himself to death with a single sword? Thinking of this, I felt a sadness in my heart. The pace slowed even slower, almost one step back and three steps back. The people in front were not in a hurry, and they walked unhurriedly with long legs.
Yu Tianqiong shook the large kitchen knife in his hand towards his head, making a vicious grin.
Bei Zhiyao suddenly turned his head as if he had eyes on the back of his head, and saw that she was panting slightly, her face was a little red, and her eyes seemed to be a kitten that had been caught doing something bad.
He was turning his head, and the corners of his mouth were hooked into a faint smile, as ethereal as fireworks.
This road seems to have been as long as a century.
When all the soldiers saw the general coming, they stood up and saluted.
Bei Zhiyao waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down, the dark robe took advantage of his tall and slender figure, his blue eyes seemed to be more sultry than the starry sky, he moved his lips slightly, and his tone was as light and long as water: "Miss Wang Xiaodian wants to dance for everyone."
The soldiers all cheered when they heard this, and the sound shook the sky. The young faces were full of anticipation, they were tired of seeing the soldiers on the battlefield, the majesty of the mountains and rivers, imagining the graceful and gentle dancing and gentle singing.
Can you imagine? A girl dressed in the costume of a cook, wearing a coarse cloth apron, carrying two green onions in her pocket, wearing a hat, and holding a kitchen knife appeared in the eyes of everyone's expectation.
"This girl's dress is really special."
"yes, yes, I don't know what show this is going to perform?"
"It's not going to be chopping vegetables, haha"
Yu Tianqing stood beside the fire at a loss, a little fire crossed her face with a layer of golden light, she bit her slightly white lip, she was a music idiot in her previous life, the five tones were incomplete and the movements were uncoordinated, after Dad found her, she would sing at home when she was in a good mood. It was a small home, but it was clean and tidy. At night, the dim light came on, and Dad sang like a cook, his voice seemed to pour all the tenderness of his life, and the fragrance of the food, gently rippling until the bottom of her heart. She searched the entire Internet, but couldn't find the song. It was much later that her father told her that the song was called "An Inch of Lovesickness".
She slowly opened her mouth:
The moon sets, and the blue sky becomes a lonely shadow
Laughing, lovesick to the bones
Encounter, dyeing of the flow of years
The sea has been shaken
Light rain, dead leaves that do not return
The east wind, the shadow of the Yiren
Gentleman, the glory is as remnant as snow
Beauty, say goodbye to tears and ripples
Who laughs at my infatuation and hatred is too crazy, who dances a song for me with a beautiful dress and feather coat,
Who blows a song and an inch of acacia for me, and drinks turbid wine alone
Already,
Ten years of traces and ten years of heart.
……
Bei Zhiyao's right hand rested on his left arm, and his index finger beat lightly. His eyes looked at her through the blazing firelight. Her pair of willow eyebrows are like a crescent moon, although a little light, but always showing a sense of beauty, two Wang Hongtan like stars, the straight nose bridge adds a touch of delicate to her, the slightly white lips are a light and melodious timbre floats out, I don't know if it is the reason for the nervousness, the timbre is slightly tight, but it is very good. At this point, time seemed to stand still, all the voices were silent, only the curling song floated far, far away.
In the distance, Ayili and several cooks heard the singing and pretended to be her. Wearing an apron, a hat on his head, and two green onions in his hands, he came running. They formed a circle around Yu Tianqing, and a few green onions swayed with the song. Years later, Beizhiyao still remembers this scene, her clear singing voice and her hilarious outfit, and everyone swayed to her singing.
