Chapter 12: The Search (I)
Chapter 12: The Search (I)
Namu Duoer sat in a gorgeous colored sedan chair, wearing a phoenix crown and a xia veil. The bright red wedding dress is the hazy longing in the heart of a fifteen-year-old girl, but for her, there is only the indescribable misery in her heart.
Lift the sedan curtain, look at the map, and you'll be on the trail. Walking out of the mountains is to return to people's accounts. There is the final destination of her life.
I can't help but think of my sister who has gone. Since her mother died, her sister is the person who loves her the most besides her brother. My brother often leads troops outside, and it is rare to come back once. Every time her half-brother bullied her, it was her sister who helped her block it. The last time, after the defeat and return to the city and get drunk, her father wanted to kill her, but it was her sister who used the condition of marrying someone to spare her life.
My sister was originally going to marry the son of a powerful minister in the court. The son who treated her well was modest and elegant, very different from most of the vulgar clansmen, who were not good at weapons and preferred Chinese. My sister's surname is gentle, and if she can get married, she will definitely be enviable. It's just that they can't be together anymore.
She often thinks that if her sister hadn't married the king of Hui, she would have been the one who married back to Xinjiang. After his sister left, the weak son fell seriously ill, and for the first time he found that he was so useless. He is powerless, and he is not even qualified to keep her. The wedding team was huge, and in the sound of cannonballs, my sister cried and was pulled into a sedan chair. The beating of the gong in the sky could not cover the gentle crying of the two of them.
It didn't take long for the news of my sister's death to arrive. Harmony is only a means of politicians, and sometimes it represents only surrender and humiliation. King Hui is brutal, a princess of a weak country, in his eyes, she is not as good as a plaything. King Hui did not bury her according to the princess's ceremony, he felt that it was not worth it. A roll of broken mats, half an acre of wasteland, is the last place of the eldest princess of Tubo.
She cried and searched the snow-covered wasteland, but found nothing. is like the soul of the princess of Tubo, floating out of the world with attachment.
King Hui must not have imagined that the princess who married this time was not the princess of Da Zhou, but an assassin who wanted to take his surname.
She also thought of Jiaoyue, the princess of the Great Zhou, and wondered how she was now. Will she know that in Bo Yan's heart, she is the only one who has always pretended?
Now, is that person about to wake up, so badly injured, and still holding on in front of her for so long. He wouldn't know that he wouldn't hurt Bright Moon. If the sneak attack is successful, as long as she is out of the gate, her subordinates will let her go. It's just that at that time, no one could trust anyone in the face of the enemy.
The sedan chair was swaying and swaying, and Namu Duoer, who had not slept all night, was sleepy, leaning against the small window, and slowly fell asleep.
Bo Yan was galloping on horseback. I didn't close my eyes for two days, so I rushed all the way over. There was a small town not far ahead, and he was going to take a short break before hurrying, and by the way replenished some dry food and water.
I entered a small shop, where a group of people were talking and laughing loudly.
sat aside and ordered a bowl of noodles. I was about to fill in the Five Organs Temple first, when I heard a loud voice shouting: "Don't say it, I saw that princess look like a flower with my own eyes..."
Bo Yan pricked up his ears suddenly, he originally thought that the Tubo princess would swagger all the way over, and it would not be too difficult to catch up with them. Unexpectedly, after inquiring all the way, I didn't even see a shadow, only saw several waves of heralds from the imperial court passing by in a hurry, and the scorching flames never stopped. I thought I was on the wrong path, but I didn't expect to have some gains in this humble town.
Bowing his head and eating the Yangchun noodles that had just been served in front of him, he carefully analyzed every word he heard. The loud doorman said that he had seen the princess, most likely to show his face in front of his companions. When he mentioned that he saw the team in Xiaochazi Village, not far ahead, this may be true. I am not familiar with the life here, except for the big road, there are few small roads to know. So, you have to use the person in front of you.
He raised his head and shouted: "Xiao Er, you serve them a few good dishes here, and say that I will invite them." As he spoke, he pointed to the group of villagers who were eating noodles on the other side.
Xiao Er looked at Bo Yan, who was covered in mud and sweat, and said sarcastically with disdain: "Come on, you, please return it?" People who eat just a few pennies and a bowl of Yangchun noodles still invite others to dinner? I see, you better leave quickly after eating, don't get in the way of my business. ”
Bo Yan looked at Xiao Er, who was full of sarcasm, and was very unhappy. Isn't there a little more mud and water on your body? Isn't it just that your body is soaked with sweat and still smells rancid? Isn't it just grizzled and scumbag? Why do others look at themselves as if they are called Hanako? Throw out a silver ingot and secretly use internal force.
The silver rolled in front of Xiao Er, smashed it hard, and was firmly embedded in the table.
Glancing at Xiao Er, who couldn't close his mouth, Bo Yan said lightly: "Is it enough?" ”
Xiao Er, who was in a cold sweat, only promised, and ran away in a whisper.
In less than a cup of tea, the man's voice sounded on the adjacent table: "Shopkeeper, we didn't ask for food, are you mistaken?" ”
The shopkeeper, who was still there and wanted to pry the silver out, carefully pointed to Bo Yan, who was eating noodles leisurely: "It was the ・・・・・・ invited by the master."
Dahan had already seen the scene just now, and he was puzzled, he was farming in the mountains, and he didn't offend anyone. stood up and clenched his fists: "I'm an iron bull, I want to ask why you invited me to dinner?" - Did I offend you somewhere? ”
Bo Yan couldn't cry or laugh, the mountain people here are used to being looked down upon, and his kindness turned out to be this result in the end, I really didn't expect it.
He also hugged his fist at the man: "I have something I want to ask you for help." ”
The man tilted his head and thought for a long time before saying, "I don't dare to kill people and set fires, I still have my mother at home." ”
Bo Yan smiled bitterly, "It's not for you to kill people and set fires, you come with me after eating quickly." What do you think of the fact that I will give you a piece of silver when it is done? ”
hurriedly pulled out a few mouthfuls of food, poured the remaining soup into his mouth, and ran out of the store with Bo Yan. "What are you going to do?"
"Have you ever seen the team of kinship?" Bo Yan stared at him tightly, and if people lied, their eyes would unnaturally avoid the other party's gaze. Time was running out, and he couldn't afford to be mistaken.
"Yes, yes, I've seen it. Not only did I see it, but I also saw the princess!"
Tie Niu's face was intoxicated, "She's really handsome, how nice it would be if I could marry a daughter-in-law like that・・・・・・"
Bo Yan interrupted him impatiently: "Okay, you can marry someone like that in the future..."
Tie Niu looked excited: "You mean it really? Can I really get married? That's a good feeling・・・・・・"
Bo Yan stiffened his head and patiently took his surname: "Did you really see Heqin's team passing by?" Where are they headed? "It's not that he's careful, it stands to reason that a princess (although a Tibetan princess) wouldn't show up to meet such a person. But looking at this man's expression, he doesn't look like a liar. I thought that if I found the family team, I would be able to find the princess. I didn't expect things to be a little complicated, could it be that the princess and the team were separated? It's impossible to think about it on your toes.
Tie Niu was very strange to see that Boyan was not interested in the princess: "Why don't you ask the princess?" By the way, I saw that she was wearing a beautiful jade bracelet on her wrist・・・・・・"
Bo Yan's face changed, and he touched the jade bracelet in his arms, and sure enough, he was nowhere to be seen. He said lightly: "Really? What does that bracelet look like? "The original unbelieving Boyan now believes a little, although the princess must have a lot of dowry, but there will never be two identical jade bracelets.
Tie Niu was extremely happy to see him listening carefully: "It's just a slippery bracelet, and there is nothing else to say・・・・・・" The disappointment on Bo Yan's face was overflowing, and when he stared at Tie Niu in frustration, Tie Niu immediately added: "That bracelet is a little strange, it seems to have a red line in it, I haven't seen it..."
Bo Yan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly interrupted him: "Are you sure?" ”
Nodding affirmatively, Tie Niu said with a big bag: "Absolutely." ”
It really took no effort to break through the iron shoes and find nowhere to go, so Bo Yan hurriedly asked: "Where are they going?" ”
Tie Niu's face was proud: "They took a path that only mountain farmers who collect medicine in the deep mountains know, or did I tell them・・・・・・"
"Where, take me there!" Bo Yan pulled him onto the horse.
When the horse ran away, I could still hear the screams of the iron bull: "Don't, don't worry, I'll go eat two more bites of food..."
