The day dawned, and the morning sun rose. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info [n look]
The silent grassland is once again full of life. Herdsmen drove cattle and horses, and their loud songs echoed over the pastureland.
Cao Peng was dressed in civilian clothes, took Han De, Wang Shuang and four Feixi, and Shi Shiran left the mission station.
The group rode horses and marched towards the residence of King Zuoxian. On the way to the Xiongnu station, Cao Peng explained to Han De and others again and again. For this trip to Saibei, Cao Peng also made a lot of preparations. Especially for the customs of the Huns, Cao Peng has made a lot of efforts. At noon, I saw a troop of iron horsemen marching out of the garrison from afar......
This is the men and horses of Liu Bao, the king of Zuoxian, walking towards the embassy station.
Cao Peng narrowed his eyes and led the people to avoid Liu Bao and the others. After Liu Bao's men and horses left, they slowly approached the Xiongnu station.
The king tent of Liu Bao, the king of Zuoxian, has a large area.
According to rough estimates, there are at least tens of thousands of people on this Shentu Ze Pastoral Plain, and these are also the foundation of Liu Bao's foothold in the Southern Xiongnu.
Below the royal tent, there were many dependent tribes.
Depending on the size of the population, these tribes are either called handsome or handsome.
Generally speaking, those who have more than 3,000 string control personnel can be handsome, and those who are less than 3,000 are handsome.
If you draw a structural diagram, you can clearly find the entire Xiongnu system.
Shan Yu is the largest, and below it is the left and right virtuous kings. Below the left and right virtuous kings, there are tribal adults, also known as heroes. Below the handsome, there are many small tribes attached to them, and they are handsome...... In this way, it becomes a pyramid-shaped structure.
Over the years, the Southern Xiongnu and the original have been very closely connected.
In particular, after the succession of Hu Chuquan, it was more closely connected with the original area.
So when Cao Peng and the others entered King Zuoxian's residence, they were not subjected to too much interrogation, and no one embarrassed them.
"Han Jialang, what's the matter?"
"Beautiful girl, we have come a long way to this beautiful pasture...... It's just that the mouth is dry, so I want Thai food. ”
Basically, the Huns at this time were quite polite to the Han Chinese.
After all, to a certain extent, the Huns were in a state of naturalization and dependence. So, when Han De spoke to them in fluent Xiongnu, some of the women took out food and milk wine and gave them a warm welcome. There are also many Han women, who seem to be accustomed to life on the grassland. They surrounded Cao Peng and others to ask for news from their hometown. One by one, with a different kind of enthusiasm...... Prairie, natural selection! The women who can survive naturally have their own differences. However, when it comes to their hometown, these women still shed tears.
"Han Jialang, sing the song of your hometown."
A woman in her thirties looked at Cao Peng and pleaded.
"We left our hometown and almost forgot the folk songs of our hometown...... I don't know what new songs are there in my hometown now? ”
The king's tent in the distance stands majestically.
The golden roof of the tent shimmered in the sun.
That is the residence of Liu Bao, the king of Zuoxian.
Around the king's tent, there were Xiongnu soldiers guarding it. Cao Peng could vaguely see that outside the big tent, several Hun teenagers were playing.
How can we get the princess out?
Cao Peng thought about it for a while, and suddenly smiled: "I have a song that can be compared to the song." ”
He asked Han De to take out a guqin from his horseback pocket and place it in front of him. The ancients commented on talents, in addition to poetry and songs, classic chapters, but also on the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. As a scholar, if you don't know how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, you will be ridiculed. In the past three years, Cao Peng, under the supervision of Huang Yueying, has also been able to understand the rhythm of music and can play a few songs......
He steadied himself, his fingers brushing over the strings.
The sound of the piano rose leisurely and reverberated over the station.
"Withered vines and old trees, faint crows, small bridges and flowing water. The ancient road is a thin horse with a west wind, the sun sets, and the broken intestine is ...... at the end of the world"
As he grew older, Cao Peng's voice more or less had a sense of vicissitudes.
Especially in the past few years, the voice change period has passed, and after the vocal cords mature, Cao Peng's singing voice has a trace of magnetism.
After a song, the surrounding women showed a sad look.
Some are even weeping...... To them, why not be disemboweled? A group of heartbroken people far from home!
In the distance, a woman walked out of the king's tent.
She was dressed in a white bearded skirt and a slanted animal skin undergarment.
"Mother, why did you come out?"
A little girl ran over, hugged the woman's leg, and asked Jiaohan.
She speaks Chinese and has a crisp and beautiful voice. The woman smiled slightly, bent down and hugged the girl in her arms.
"Ah Meigui, who was singing just now?"
"It's like singing from over there...... My brother said that there were a few Han Jialang. But he sang so badly that it wasn't as pleasant as his mother's. ”
The woman looked in the direction of Ah Mei's finger, her heart moved, and she suddenly said, "Ah Di Gui, let's go over and have a look." ”
A stout boy ran over with a smile.
"Han Jialang, you sing well is good, but it's too sad!
Can you change the song? ”
Cao Peng smiled slightly when he heard this, and the corner of his eyes inadvertently swept in the direction of the king's tent, and saw a woman with a daughter in her arms and a son in her hand, coming slowly. Is it her? Cao Peng had some doubts in his heart. Looking at her outfit, it seems that she is not an ordinary Hun woman. But the bun is slightly unkempt and obscures the face, so that it is not easy to see clearly.
"If you come from your hometown, you should know about your hometown.
Leaning on the window in the coming day, the cold plum blossoms are not blooming. ”
A wisp of piano, a poem......
The woman stopped abruptly and looked this way blankly.
I saw her, her cheeks twitched slightly, and after a while, she turned abruptly and went to the king's tent.
"Mother, why do you want to go back?"
"A-Niang is a little uncomfortable...... Adigui, you go and ask the singing man to come to the account, I have something to ask him. ”
Adi said yes and ran quickly towards Cao Peng.
And Cao Peng also noticed the woman's reaction at this time, so the singing voice changed, "Don't believe in people's words, Yu is not as good as a bear, and a tile is not as good as Zhang." Supplement the history for Meng Jian, Ban Zhaocaixue, Lang Chuanye, Cai Yan's words and chapters, all the lead is washed, and there is no Yingluo, still with the fragrance of the sandalwood country......"
Then he saw the woman stumble under her feet and almost fall to the ground.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?"
Ah Mei asked in a coquettish voice.
The woman was in tears.
"Wu Na Han Jialang, what are you singing nonsense?"
Adi ran forward, pointed at Cao Peng's nose, and scolded sharply: "My aunt let you go over, don't leave quickly." ”
"Who is your aunt?"
Cao Peng pretended to be confused and asked.
Someone on the side gave an answer, and Cao Peng was overjoyed, but on his face, he still showed doubts.
He motioned for Han De and the others to wait on the side, and followed Adi into a big tent. I saw that the woman from before was sitting upright in the banquet, combing her temples and pulling it into the hairstyle of a Han girl, and she was watching Cao Peng come in blankly.
"Who are you?"
Cao Peng took a deep breath, "I am a businessman, and I came to the grassland to find the daughter of the master's mentor at the behest of the master's family. ”
"Who is your lord's house?"
"Dare to ask you, who is it?"
The woman looked at Cao Peng quietly, and calmed down after a while.
"Cai Yan's words and chapters, all washed lead, there is no Yingluo, still with the fragrance of the sandalwood country......
Zhao Ji was ashamed to praise him, twelve years later, Zhao Ji did not expect that there were still people in his homeland who still remembered the name of Zhao Ji. ”
Cao Peng was as calm as water, staring at the woman at the banquet.
Stuffed with wind and frost, it can't hide the elegance. The complexion is slightly rough, but it still retains the same touching as it was back then. Cao Peng stepped forward and waved his hand, "Under Cao Peng, on the order of Cao Sikong, I came to visit Cai Jia......
Sikong said: Zhaoji, return home! ”
Tears gushed like springs, and Cai Yan suddenly cried loudly.
Even Ah Meigui, who was beside her, began to cry...... Adi rushed up and grabbed Cao Peng's shirt.
"You bad guy, you actually made my mother cry."
This Hun boy, like a little tiger, grabbed Cao Peng's clothes and beat him.
Cao Peng stretched out his hand and grabbed Adi. Although the young man's body was stout, in Cao Peng's hands, it seemed to be nothing.
"Adigui, Hugh is rude!"
Cai Yan hurriedly stopped crying and scolded Adi.
"Sir, please let go, Adi is just a ......"
Without waiting for Cai Yan to finish speaking, Cao Peng had already let go of Adi's crutches, squatted, and put one hand against Adi's forehead, letting Adi crutches do it.
"Cai, don't worry, I won't hurt him...... I came this time to welcome everyone Cai back to their hometown. ”
Go home?
It's a throbbing phrase.
After twelve years of exile, Cai Yan has thought about this word countless times, but the result is ......
She stabilized her emotions, holding Amei with one hand and Adi with the other, "Meng Degong is already commonplace?" ”
"Exactly."
Cai Yan raised that very charming face, looked at Cao Peng and said, "But, how are you going to take me home?" ”
"I should plead with King Zuoxian."
"No!"
Cai Yan suddenly said loudly: "King Zuo Xian categorically will not let my mother and son return. ”
Cao Peng keenly captured that Cai Yan used 'my mother and son', not 'me'. In history, Cai Yanling's big stain is that when she returned to her hometown, she abandoned a pair of children. So much so that many people think that Cai Yan is the woman who is ruthless and doesn't care about her children. But now it seems that her love for her children is completely unpretentious.
Just imagine, Liu Bao let Cai Yan go back, it was a last resort.
He can let Cai Yan go, but it is impossible for him to throw away his own flesh and blood...... It's just that what the fate of Cai Yan's children was in the future doesn't seem to be recorded in the history books. This trip to the plug has completely exceeded Cao Peng's knowledge. He was lucky to be able to find Cai Yan, but it was probably not easy to take away this pair of children under Liu Bao's nose. In history, why did Cai Yan abandon his children? The truth is no longer known.
Cao Peng looked at Cai Yan's brother and sister in his arms, hesitated for a moment and said, "If Cai everyone is willing to return, I should do my best to bring his brother and sister back together." ”
Cai Yan heard this, and his face showed surprise.
"Really?"
"Cao is not talented, since he has spoken, he will definitely not regret it.
It's just that, before that, I ask everyone Cai to be patient a little more. I need to look at the situation and then I think about it.
Please also ask everyone Cai to take good care of their children and not be noticed by King Zuoxian. ”
When Cao Peng said this, he had secretly made up his mind.
No matter what reason Cai Yan abandoned his children in history. But now that he is here, he must not make her infamous again.
