Volume 2 Xin Guo Chapter 77 Ten Miles of Red Makeup
In the past two days, the people in the regent's palace did not know who they were instructed to lose, so they tried their best not to let her escape at all, and put cartilage powder that would not harm her body in the water, and dotted it with a weakly ecstasy incense...... The means can be described as exhaustive.
Bai Yan Xiao strongly supported his weak body, raised his sword and came out, and a guard guarded in front of Bai Yan Xiao's room: "Princess, you can't go out." ”
Bai Yanxiao didn't bother to talk nonsense, and slashed the knife: "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?" ”
The two guards hurriedly knelt on the ground: "If I can't stand you, the two of us will also die, both horizontally and vertically, princess, you better do it now!" ”
Bai Yanxiao lowered her eyelids faintly, knowing that this guard was just bullying her for being soft-hearted, and then the long sword went straight to her neck: "Get out of the way!" Otherwise, if I die here, you won't be able to pay the difference! ”
"This ...... The princess is angry, don't hurt herself! The two guards were torn between a dilemma.
"Get out of the way, don't you hear me!" Bai Yan smiled and roared, but his voice was soft because he had no strength.
"What is this doing, White Girl?!" It just so happened that Mrs. Ru came to see this scene and couldn't help but turn white, "The white girl has something to say, don't hurt yourself!" ”
"Get out of the way!" Bai Yanxiao said coldly.
"Go down." As Madame commanded.
"This ......" The two guards were a little embarrassed.
"If there is anything, I will bear it." Mrs. Ru said, and the guards breathed a sigh of relief and left step by step.
Seeing them go away, Bai Yanxiao took down the sword, and his arm hung down weakly.
"White girl, why are you doing this?" Mrs. Ru stepped forward and helped Bai Yan smile.
"I'm leaving, if you want to stop me, go back, you're kind to me, I don't want to hurt you." Bai Yan said lightly with a smile.
"I don't know that you don't want to stay, but do you know that inside and outside this palace, within a radius of five miles, hundreds of officers and soldiers have been encircled, and a net has been laid in the heavens and the earth, not only can you not escape, but even those who want to save you will definitely die. It's come to this, it's better to get married, I've never seen the prince so interested in a woman, I know you have a knot in his heart, but time will eventually dilute everything. The day after tomorrow is the wedding of you and the prince, he transferred the Xiao family army to escort you for you, that is the soldiers left by the old prince, and they will never move easily, I also heard that His Majesty also transferred thousands of soldiers and horses from the Yufeng Battalion as escorts on the wedding day! Mrs. Ru said.
Hearing this, Bai Yanxiao's eyes lit up: "You mean, Your Majesty transferred the people from the Yufeng Camp?" ”
"yes, what's wrong?"
"Nothing." Bai Yanxiao rolled his eyes and covered it quietly, but he seemed to see hope in his heart. It is impossible for Xiao Yu to mobilize the people of the Yufeng Camp in vain, something will definitely happen on the day of the wedding, and at that time, it will be her best chance to escape.
"White girl?" Mrs. Ru was stunned when she saw Bai Yan smiling and waved her hand.
"It's nothing, I'm a little tired, I'll go back to the room first." Bai Yan smiled.
"It's great that you figured it out." Mrs. Ru said happily.
In the past two days, the news of the regent's wedding to marry the county lord Bai Yanxiao spread all over the Great Xiao Kingdom, all the neighborhoods and restaurants in Candle City are hung with red silk and happy couplets, and the red carpet is paved with a radius of three miles from the Regent's Palace, and its battle is not lost to the princess's marriage at all, and the streets and alleys are full of discussions.
In the Regent's Mansion, a black-clothed figure lingered, and a pair of gray-blue eyes stared coldly at everything in the mansion. It's just that the inside and outside of this palace are extremely strictly guarded, and Gu Beiyu has been lurking here for several days, but these guards are patrolling day and night, and Rao has a chance to enter, and it is impossible to bring her out safely.
A figure turned in from the small door, attracting Gu Beiyu's attention.
The figure knelt in the garden of the palace: "Lord, it has been arranged, and the Tianci Terrace and the Willow Pavilion have all ambushed people." ”
Only then did Gu Beiyu discover that the figure standing in the darkness was Xiao Sheng. Xiao Sheng turned around: "Send another twenty secret guards to protect Bai Yanxiao's safety, these days, and there must be no mistakes." ”
Gu Beiyu pondered for a moment and disappeared in the darkness.
The three days were soon here.
The sky was white, Ru'er led the maid into the room with a smile, the maid held a gilded phoenix crown and a bright red wedding dress, the wedding dress is the most famous silk brocade embroidery in Da Xiao, Bai Yanxiao only glanced at it and knew that it was priceless. I couldn't help but sneer on my lips, but I regretted this good fabric.
Ru'er saw that Bai Yanxiao did not resist, and dressed up for her with the maid. It was still early, and Bai Yan smiled and closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, as if he was just having a wedding banquet that had nothing to do with him. An hour later, Bai Yanxiao opened her eyes lightly and looked at the woman in the mirror, the scar on her face was covered by thick powder, lining her skin white and snowy, with red eyebrows and lips. Long hair is like ink, and red makeup is glamorous but not flattering. Bai Yanxiao looked at it indifferently, and the coldness in his eyes was just right with this red makeup.
Alluring.
Ru'er was stunned and couldn't help but envy: "The white girl is so beautiful, even I am a woman." ”
"Since ancient times, the red face is either a disaster or a thin life." Bai Yan smiled and said inappropriately.
Ru'er held her hand to comb her hair, and thought that Mrs. Xian was indeed such a celestial appearance, and she unconsciously felt pity and persuaded her: "The white girl will not, you are a blessed person." I'll comb your hair, and be a bride to look like a bride. ”
Ru'er combed the top of her smiling hair to the end, and there were words in her mouth: "Once you comb your hair, you don't have to worry about being rich; Three combs to the hair, many sons and many longevity; Then comb to the end, raise the case and raise eyebrows......"
Bai Yanxiao closed his eyes tiredly.
The auspicious time has arrived, the sound of gongs and drums sounded, and the palace was lively for a while, and Xiao Sheng had arrived.
Xiao Sheng had been placed in the palace the night before, and went from the palace to the regent palace to pick up relatives, and then went to Tiancitai to get married. Tianci Terrace, that is the holy place for royal sacrifices to get married, at that time, Xiao Yu will also come in person, smiling and pursing his lips, the regent is really a big face.
"Princess, the auspicious time has arrived, please pedal the sedan chair." Outside the door, Xi Po called respectfully.
Ru'er saw that Bai Yanxiao had no intention of getting up, so she persuaded and explained: "The matter has come to this point, this fate is suitable for the white girl to marry into the palace, no matter what, don't compete with yourself, people have to look forward." ”
Bai Yanxiao slowly got up and walked to the door.
Ru'er had a smile in her eyes and put a red hijab on her.
At the moment when the door was about to open, Bai Yan smiled and turned to look at Ru'er: "After today, no matter what happens to me and the Regent's Palace, I will keep in mind your heart what you want to do with me." ”
Ru'er was surrounded by the words in the clouds, and looked at Bai Yanxiao in puzzlement, with a bad premonition in her heart.
Bai Yanxiao slammed the door open and strode out.
As soon as the door was opened, the servants kneeling on the ground in the courtyard said in unison: "Congratulations to the princess!" ”
Bai Yanxiao couldn't see clearly with her hijab, but she could still feel the grandeur of this scene, and the red carpet under her feet was rolled out, and from a distance, Bai Yanxiao felt the figure standing at the end of the red carpet.
Xiao Sheng saw Bai Yan coming with a smile, and his eyes were full of surprise and joy that could not be concealed.
"The newcomer is on the sedan car! Please take the princess into the sedan chair! Xi Niang said loudly.
Xiao Sheng walked up to Bai Yanxiao and put her hand into the palm of his hand, Bai Yanxiao's back stiffened, but he didn't struggle, and let Xiao Sheng hold it indifferently. Xiao Sheng saw that she was obedient, and his mood became more and more bright.
It wasn't until the sound of horses' hooves sounded that Bai Yanxiao sat in the sedan chair, his white fingers relaxed slightly, raised his hand and pulled it hard, and forcibly broke off half of the golden hairpin from the phoenix crown and hid it in his sleeve.
In order to prevent Bai Yanxiao from escaping, Xiao Sheng ordered someone to take away all the sharp weapons around her early in the morning, including the short knife that "Shen Ning" gave her at the beginning.
Beating gongs and drums to shake the sky, from the regent palace to the Tianci Terrace for several miles of streets, red silk is hung, ten miles of red makeup, all the same. The convoy of hundreds of people sent off relatives, and the formation was no less than that of a princess getting married. At the end of the convoy, there were a few people who did not belong to this place quietly hid in the middle.
The cool breeze blew and blew the curtain on the sedan chair, and Bai Yanxiao inadvertently glanced at it and saw a familiar figure in the send-off procession, but in just a moment, the figure disappeared. Bai Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head, how could it be him, the one who swore that he would rather kill her than protect his family's honor.
A butterfly landed on the window, its blue wings beautiful. Bai Yanxiao stretched out his hand to touch it, but the butterfly felt the palm wind fly away all of a sudden.
The wind passed through the fingertips, leaving nothing.
It's obviously a few miles away, but Bai Yanxiao seems to have walked as long as a lifetime.
"The heaven-given platform has arrived, please help the princess get off the sedan chair." As the voice sounded, Bai Yanxiao felt that his heavy steps were approaching him step by step.
Xiao Sheng stood in front of the sedan chair, took a deep breath, and slowly raised the hand that lifted the curtain, and his fingertips trembled a little.
The red sedan curtain was lifted all at once. The next moment, Bai Yanxiao was led out of the sedan chair by Xiao Sheng, and the two of them each held one end of the brocade and satin, and slowly walked to the center of the Tianci Terrace.
Xiao Yu waited on the dragon chair on the Tianci Platform early in the morning, and through the red hijab, Bai Yan could feel the resentful gaze of Yaohua behind Xiao Yu.
Before leading to the center of the stage, you have to pass through a long road, the two ends of the red carpet are the court officials, and the outer layer is the guarded soldiers, and outside the soldiers are the people who watch the ceremony on the inside and outside three layers. Bai Yanxiao's bright red wedding dress dragged to the ground, supporting her for several meters on the ground, and the golden silk lines outlined her tall figure, and as soon as she appeared, she had already caused a sensation in the audience.
"Although I haven't seen my face, I must be a beauty!" Far away, the people talked about it.
"This battle, this figure, the regent is really blessed!"
The smile in Xiao Sheng's eyes deepened.
