Chapter 143: Unless I Die
Chapter 143: Unless I Die
When the sky was completely obscured by dark clouds and the north wind was howling again, Zhao Yanshen finished saying goodbye to Zhao Jing, Zhao Jing pushed away his father's embrace, stepped into the sedan chair with tears on his face, and cried with his mouth covered.
Although this separate scene has appeared in dreams more than once in the past two days, when this moment really came, Zhao Jing's already dead heart was still uncontrollably full of sadness and nostalgia.
"Get up!"
Under the loud shouts of the palace heralds, the procession embarked on the journey again like a long dragon, carrying the burden of national stability and the thoughts of relatives, gradually disappearing into the white wilderness.
The crowd gradually dispersed, and in the eyes of many, the princess's wedding was a memorable bustle, a pleasure in their numb and monotonous life. They are not concerned about the prosperity of the country, nor who the emperor is, they only care about whether the dinner will be settled today, and whether the imperial court's forced labor tax will be reduced a little in the coming year, and they can only care about these things.
When the sky began to scatter messy snowflakes, there was no one in the empty field except for Zhao Yanshen, Zhao Zhongjiang and a group of family members.
Zhao Yan looked at the direction of Zhao Jing's departure in the north, his old face was full of helpless heartache, and muddy tears flowed down silently, slipping from the folds of the skin on his face, and before he landed, he froze into Xiaoice particles and was blown out by the whistling north wind.
"Father, go back, you have to leave for Chang'an, don't hurt your body because of Jing'er's matter! The Zhao family can do without Zhao Jing, but they can't do without you! Zhao Zhong choked his voice, dragged Zhao Yanshen's arm with trembling hands, and his tone was unusually low.
"Alas, the old man is incompetent, incompetent!" Zhao Yan sighed deeply, and then with the support of Zhao Zhongjiang, he slowly walked out of Yecheng, in addition to his sentence in the wind, the north wind that seemed to be more and more fierce not only blew away the last two lines of tears in the corners of his eyes, but also filled his sentence full of sadness and helplessness, like a cuckoo's words crying blood.
Wu Shun tightened his collar, looked at the empty and white fields around him, sighed silently, and let out a thick breath of white gas, and couldn't help but feel a little desolate.
I'm afraid I'll never be able to come back!
Wu Shun thought so in his heart, and couldn't help but think of the voices and smiles of his relatives in his mind, recalling the scene of laughter and play between Zeng and his sister, he couldn't help but feel warm and sweet in his heart, and a happy smile appeared on his face. But when I thought that I would be like duckweed in the wind from now on, and my fate could no longer be controlled, I couldn't help but become desolate again.
For some reason, a faint shadow suddenly appeared in Wu Shun's mind, and as he walked through the snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow, the shadow gradually became clear. The man who looked at him indifferently and coldly, almost taking his own surname. It seems that at this time, his eyes are no longer terrifying! In his deep eyes, there seem to be countless stories hidden, and there seems to be a lonely and fragile heart, which always makes him want to explore and care for him!
He promised to come and see me, but I'm gone, and I'll never see him again! Wu Shun shook her head, feeling a little sad for no reason, and two lines of tears silently slipped from the corners of her eyes, but she didn't know it.
Suddenly, the advancing team stopped, Wu Shun looked up in shock, and in the distance, a black figure appeared in front of the team. At the foot of the black shadow, there were several bare trees, which happened to seal the road.
Could it be that he is coming? No, he's a little shorter and thinner than that.
Just when Wu Shun was confused about where the black-clothed man who was blocking the way was sacred, the groom's official Ashina Cave Hezhen stepped out of the team and came to the front, standing five meters away from the black-clothed man.
"Who are you, and why are you blocking our way?" Ashina Guzhen looked at the black-clothed masked man in front of him unhappily, and his tone was stiff and jerky.
"Turkic barbarian, leave Princess Dayi, I will let you live, otherwise-" The black-clothed masked man snorted coldly, and a pair of dissatisfied, bloodshot eyes stared at Ashina Cave Hezhen, full of anger and murderous intent. His voice is unusually hoarse, making it impossible to discern his age.
"Haha......" Ashina Cave Hezhen seemed to hear a very funny joke, and looked up and laughed. After laughing for a while, Ashina Cave Hezhen restrained his laughter, stared at the black-clothed masked man viciously, and said with a murderous face: "You hidden head and tail, can't you see these warriors behind Ben Khan?" Or did you take the wrong medicine and break your brain? ”
"Turkic barbarian, don't talk nonsense, leave the righteous princess alone, otherwise, die!" The black-clothed masked man scolded angrily, pulled out the long knife at his waist with a "choking" sound, and a faint murderous aura pressed towards Ashina Cave Hezhen.
"How daring!" Ashina Guhe really laughed angrily, he always thought he was arrogant, but for the first time he found out that there were such arrogant people in this world, and he wanted to fight against the five hundred elite Great Qi Yulin Army and three hundred Turkic warriors with the strength of one person, or that this world was really crazy.
"Little Khan, it's not early, let's hurry up and get on the road, lest we can't enter the city before dark and sleep in the wild, the princess is noble and delicate, I'm afraid I can't withstand this cold weather." Qi Hesong stepped forward and said in the ear of Ashina Cave Hezhen.
"Warriors, take down this madman, Ben Khan wants to see how capable he is!" Ashina Cave Hezhen nodded in agreement and ordered loudly, thinking of Zhao Jing's slender and charming figure, that skin that was fairer and smoother than milk, his heart was hot, and he couldn't wait to meet Zhao Jing frankly in Dujin Mountain now.
"Wait!" Just as the Turkic warriors were gearing up and rushing towards the black-clothed masked man with fierce eyes, a cold voice came from behind them, causing everyone to stop their movements and look at the gorgeous palanquin.
"Princess!" Everyone saluted, quickly got out of the way, and let Zhao Jing, who was supported by Xiao Lu, slowly come to Ashina Cave and stand one meter beside Hezhen.
As soon as Ashina Cave Hezhen saw Zhao Jing coming, he immediately jumped off the horse, took two steps eagerly, and asked with concern: "Madam, why did you come out, it's windy outside, you have to be careful about your body!" ”
Zhao Jing frowned in disgust, took half a step back slightly, and said lightly: "Thank you Little Khan for your concern, this person is here because of this palace, according to the opinion of this palace, let's ask the reason first!" ”
"It's up to Madame to decide!"
Listening to Zhao Jing's noncommittal words with a hint of order, Ashina Cave Hezhen was not angry, but agreed with a smile on his face, compared to before, Zhao Jing's attitude towards him was much better, which was undoubtedly a good thing for Ashina Cave Hezhen.
"Your Excellency, who are you? Why? Zhao Jing frowned slightly, her voice was cold, and she was not gentle and peaceful at all.
"Who am I? Don't you recognize it? Since Zhao Jing appeared, the anger in the eyes of the black-clothed masked man has been replaced by obsession and helplessness, and now listening to Zhao Jing's inquiry, a sad and lonely look can't help but appear in his eyes, and the sad look makes people feel sour.
Looking at the eyes of the black-clothed masked man, Zhao Jing was shocked, and was just about to blurt out the identity of this person, but he stopped abruptly.
"Thank you for sending me!" Zhao Jing's voice was a little gentler, and she didn't have the arrogant posture of the princess before, which made people dare not get close.
"I'm not here to see you off, I'm here to take you away!" The black-clothed masked man was stunned, then took two steps forward and said firmly.
"How can Gao Jing not know your intentions, but the will of heaven makes people!" Zhao Jing sighed and said, "Now that I am responsible for the country, I will not leave with you, you should leave quickly, there are thousands of good women in the world, don't delay your good future because of Zhao Jing alone, so as to affect Ling Zun!" ”
"Bullshit providence, bullshit country!" The black-clothed masked man was furious, he waved the long knife in his hand, and the snowy blade split countless snowflakes, "These so-called responsibilities shouldn't let you be a weak woman at all, shouldn't!" The black-clad masked man's voice became hoarse, and when he spoke, his voice was filled with tears.
"Hehe, go back, your mind Zhao Jing will always be remembered in my heart!" Zhao Jing smiled softly and said, her laughter was full of helpless desolation.
"Will you remember him?" The question of the black-clothed masked man made the Ashina Cave Hezhen people like the monks of the second zhang puzzled, but they did not dare to act rashly, and could only look at the black-clothed masked man vigilantly, in case he suddenly attacked.
Zhao Jing's body shook suddenly, and she pursed her mouth tightly, but the tears in the corners of her eyes stayed again.
"Hey, Lord Changli, why are you here, did Your Majesty ask you to come?" The eyes of the black-clothed masked man suddenly burst into a light of surprise, and he bowed his hands as he spoke.
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and couldn't help but look in the direction where the black-clothed masked man was looking, but there was nothing but the white expanse, where was Han Changluan's figure. Qi Hesong was stunned for a moment and then knew that he had been fooled, he quickly turned around, and then suddenly pounced on the black-clothed masked man
"Ahh When everyone's attention was attracted by the sudden appearance of "Han Changluan", the black-clothed masked man suddenly jumped out and pulled Zhao Jing into his arms at once, and the sudden change made her exclaim involuntarily.
Qi Hesong is worthy of being the guard of his bowl khan, his reaction speed is definitely sharp and fast, Zhao Jing's body will be pasted with the clothes of the black-clothed masked man, and Qi Hesong's fist will be handed to Zhao Jing a foot in front of him.
Feeling the strong wind blowing in his face, Zhao Jing did not have the slightest fear in his heart, instead of joy and relief, perhaps, dying in his arms is the most perfect ending, and he can leave innocently, and he can also repay his true feelings for himself.
"Beggar Song, you!"
"Princess!"
Zhao Jing's exclamation woke everyone up, but the scene that appeared in front of him made everyone frightened, and Qi Hesong didn't know what was crazy, and he actually wanted to "kill" the princess, the wife of the little khan. As a result, Ashina's roar and everyone's exclamations sounded together, and at the same time, Ashina's strong body like a bear also swooped out like the wind.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Just when Zhao Jing closed his eyes and waited for the big fist of Qi Hesong to descend, his body was suddenly turned in a different direction, and two ** collision sounds sounded almost at the same time, and Zhao Jing's body fell forward with the black-clothed masked man.
"Uh-huh", the black-clothed masked man snorted, and then Zhao Jing felt a heat on her neck, and a fishy smell reached the end of her nose, she knew that the person behind her was injured, and she couldn't help but worry in her heart.
It turned out that at that critical moment, the black-clothed masked man and Zhao Jing switched positions, and used their backs to withstand the powerful punch of Qi Hesong. But Qi Hesong also kicked Ashina Cave Hezhen at the same time, and his body flew straight out and fell on the snow.
"Stop!" Ashina Cave Hezhen kicked Qi Hesong and was about to pounce on Zhao Jing, but the black-clothed masked man shouted, looking at the bright knife light in front of Zhao Jing's neck, Ashina Cave Hezhen had to stop.
"Let go of the princess!" Ashina Cave Hezhen clenched his fists and shouted angrily, his rough face was completely distorted at this time, and his appearance was very hideous.
"Want to take her unless I die!" The black-clothed masked man stood in front of Zhao Jing, looking at Ashina Cave and saying word by word.
The categorical voice made Zhao Jing tremble, and the back in front of him suddenly became a little taller, and only the nine words "I want to take her away, unless I die" kept echoing in his mind.
