006 Rescued (2)
This night, Qin Luo did not return to the prison. The sixth prince looked at the empty position around him, and his heart was uneasy. However, within a few days, the news of Qin Luo's rebellion came.
"When I went to work as a coolie, I saw Qin Luo and Xiang Qiang's prince from a distance, riding horses and hunting together, talking and laughing."
"Really? You're not dazzled, are you? Someone asked incredulously.
"Qin Luo is wearing the clothes of the Xiang Qiang people, they are glamorous, and it seems that he has surrendered. I didn't expect him to be a despicable villain, groveling to the enemy. ”
"It's really strange, why did Xiang Qiang fall in love with him?"
It is said that he won the trust of the khan and was summoned as a staff member. This matter has spread all over the grassland. ”
"Hehe, looking at the silent ones on weekdays, it's really extraordinary to make a move."
…………
The sixth prince lowered his head and listened silently to the discussions of others. When the nurse saw it, she patted the prince on the shoulder and comforted: "It's the incompetence of the minions, who have seen the wrong person and put the master in danger." You can rest assured that the slave will fight to protect the master. ”
The nurse thought that the sixth prince was afraid that Qin Luo would confess himself, but the sixth prince said: "I don't believe that Qin Luo will rebel and will take refuge in Xiang Qiang." ”
"I don't know my heart. Little master, you are still too young. "The nurse has been in the palace for many years, and how many harem battles have she watched. Her cloudy eyes revealed the wisdom that had been precipitated over the years, and she no longer dared to entrust the Six Princes to anyone.
However, the sixth prince had a childlike intuition, and he had always believed in Qin Luo. Until many years later, many people were scolding Qin Luo for being a traitor, but he still firmly believed in Qin Luo's loyalty.
He believed that people like Qin Luo would not betray their country for petty profits.
After a few days, the third prince really took Qin Luo to run away. Qin Luo's equestrian skills are not good, nor bad, but he can barely keep up with Tuoba Yan. Seeing that he was running hard, Tuoba Yan gradually slowed down his horse, and the two of them wandered around the grassland.
"When is the Khan going to release those children?" Qin Luo waited for several days, and when he saw that the khan didn't move, he finally couldn't help but ask the third prince.
"I have already notified the Chu State to come and collect people." The third prince rode a red sweaty and bloody horse, lazily strolling on the grassland, walking as he walked, "There are quite a few children caught this time, and it will take time to verify them one by one." ”
Qin Luo's heart sank, it turned out that the child was not only what he saw, but also his younger brother...... Could it be that it is also in the captive group? Fortunately, the younger brother is the same age as the sixth prince, even if he is unfortunately caught, there is still a chance to be released.
"Hey, what do you want?" Seeing his frowns, Tuoba Yan couldn't help but guess, "You are so anxious, is there a child you know among the captives?" ”
Qin Luo shook his head, "I just can't bear to see them suffer at a young age, let them go for a day early, and get rid of them as soon as possible." ”
"You're quite compassionate." Tuoba Yan said, "I'll help you keep an eye on this matter and urge them to hurry up." ”
"Thank you, Prince." Qin Luo rode on the horse and thanked Tuoba Yan slightly.
And Tuoba Yan waved his hand indifferently and said to Qin Luo: "Let's race horses, run from here to that mountain." ”
"I'm not good at riding." Qin Luo is a native of Chu, and he is also a civil official, so it is already very good to be able to ride a horse.
Tuoba Yan smiled: "This is not good, in our grassland, everyone is a master of equestrianism. If you don't practice, you will be ridiculed in the future. ”
After that, Tuoba Yan took advantage of Qin Luo's inattention, waved the whip in his hand, and whipped Qin Luo's horse. The horse roared and galloped forward with Qin Luo.
"Eh, the third prince......" Qin Luo was startled and hurriedly grabbed the reins. The horses of this steppe are really wild, and they can't pull it, and they run happily. The third prince laughed behind him, then rode over, and soon caught up with Qin Luo.
"Hahaha, how do you feel?" The third prince laughed.
Qin Luo's feeling was naturally terrible, he was torn up and down on his horse, and he almost fell down. However, looking at the smile of the third prince, Qin Luo had no choice but to say, "It's okay." ”
"Don't tell lies." The third prince said, "I know, the first time it was not easy. You used to walk horses slowly, what kind of horse riding are you? Only in this way can you really learn to ride a horse. ”
The two rode another distance, and Qin Luo gradually got used to the bumps of a fast horse. Suddenly, Qin Luo saw a woman standing by the river, her whole body was black, wearing a black cloak, wearing a long black dress, and even her face was covered with black veil.
As she walked, Qin Luo heard a crisp sound of bells. On closer inspection, it was found that the woman had a silver bell on her left wrist and a fist-sized bell around her waist. As soon as a person moves, the "bell bell" rings non-stop.
"Who's that man?" Qin Luo pointed to the woman in black and asked the third prince.
After Tuoba Yan saw the woman, he frowned slightly, "She, it's my eldest brother's woman." ”
"Oh?" This answer surprised Qin Luo, seeing that this woman didn't eat the fireworks of the world, she was actually married to a wife.
"What, interested in her?" The third prince looked at Qin Luo clearly, with an expression of "I understand". Qin Luo smiled awkwardly and hurriedly explained, "It's just curiosity." ”
The third prince said: "She used to be a military prostitute, and many men on the grassland liked her." It's a pity that the eldest brother took a fancy to her at a glance and married her home. The men never got a chance to get close to her, not even their faces. ”
No wonder he was covered in a black veil, Qin Luo wondered: "Can such a person also marry into your Tuoba family?" ”
"My father didn't bother to care about these things, but as for my mother, she said a word."
"What?"
"Mother said that the son of a slave and a lowly prostitute are a perfect match." Tuoba Yan learned the tone of Mozang Kedun at that time, and said very contemptuously.
"......" Qin Luo was speechless, Xiang Qiang's matter really can't be deduced by common sense.
By this time the bell had faded, and the woman had already walked away.
The release of the captives went very smoothly, and Da Chu sent someone to pick up the child as soon as possible. Qin Luo stood on the high hill, watching the groups of children being escorted back to China, and the big stone in his heart finally fell.
"A total of two hundred and thirty-five children, all of them have been handed over to you Chu people." Tuoba Yan rode a horse and slowly came to Qin Luo's side, "The rest of the captives are all used as slaves and distributed to the Great Khan of each tribe for disposal. ”
"That's good, that's good." Qin Luo arched his hand and said, "Thank you to the third prince here." ”
"You really have a compassionate heart." Tuoba Yan sighed.
Qin Luo smiled: "Isn't the third prince too?" ”
"That's different." Tuoba Yan said, "I didn't want my father Khan to kill those women, but I thought it would be a pity to spend so much effort and kill them all the way away." ”
"......" Qin Luo did not comment on this.
"I heard that you are a Tanhua of the Chu State, so you are very knowledgeable?" In the past few days, Tuoba Yan sent people to ask the captives of Chu and found out all the background of Qin Luo.
Qin Luo was not surprised by this. He smiled and said, "Prince False, in our place, there is one Tanhua every three years, which is nothing. ”
Tuoba Yan shook his head, "It's not common to know the Qiang language's Tanhua. I want to learn your words and read your books. Can you teach me? ”
Qin Luo looked at Tuoba Yan in surprise and wondered, "Why is the prince interested in these?" ”
"Father Khan said that it is easy to capture a city and a pool, but it is difficult to rule. Only by learning the culture of the Chu people can the Chu state be defeated. Tuoba Yan made no secret of his intentions.
However, the culture of the Central Plains is broad and profound, Qin Luo did not believe that Tuoba Yan could master it all, he asked tentatively: "So, what kind of knowledge does the prince want to learn?" ”
"I heard that you have this 'son' and that 'son', as well as the art of war and the way to govern the country. I want to learn all of this. ”
Qin Luo smiled slightly after hearing this, laughing that the third prince didn't know the difficulty of learning.
Tuoba Yan smiled inexplicably when he saw Qin Luo, and asked, "Do you think I can't learn so many things?" ”
Qin Luo shook his head lightly and said, "The prince is gifted and intelligent, learning these is a piece of cake for you." ”
"Then why are you laughing?" The third prince asked.
"There is no end to learning, and there is no end. Although the prince has good talents, he is frozen three feet, not a day's cold. If you want to stick to it for a long time, it's not easy. ”
Tuoba said, "Okay, I will keep learning, as long as you can keep teaching me." ”
"It's nature." Qin Luo thought that Tuoba Yan just felt that it was novel, and he studied for a few days to have fun. Unexpectedly, this teaching has been taught for many years, and Tuoba Yan really studied the Central Plains culture with his heart.
On the side of the prisoner camp, Zhao Ruize, the sixth prince, lowered his head and walked out of the prison. He finally regained his freedom and could return to the state of Chu.
Last night, the nurse kept pulling the six princes, crying, and chattering a lot to him. Let him not reveal his identity on the road, and wait until he arrives in Yangcheng and confirms his safety, and then reveals his identity.
And Otomo, the Sixth Prince hasn't seen him for a long, long time. The identity of the eunuch of the great companion has been exposed, and he does not dare to approach the six princes, and even before leaving, he does not dare to give the six princes a ride. At the moment of life and death, the six princes finally had the opportunity to return to China, how dare they make a little mistake at this critical moment?
The six princes followed a group of children and were taken over by the Chu people. He finally glanced back at the vast prairie, and the nurse, the eldest companion, and Qin Luo were all left on this land. He thought that one day, when the state of Chu was strong, he would definitely take them all back to his homeland.
