Chapter 14: Three Women

Anuri walked through a few large tents worriedly, she was very anxious, she was very worried about her sister, in front of her was a small purple tent, Anuri walked to the tent and slowed down.

"Asto, I'm Anuri, can I come in?"

"Come in!" There was a cry in Asto's voice.

Anuri sighed in her heart, opened the curtain and walked into the tent, and Asto huddled in a corner of the tent with her knees crossed, wiping her tears from her eyes.

Anuri felt sorry for her sister, sat down beside her, gently hugged her shoulders and smiled: "Are you still angry with your father?" ”

"Anuri, why didn't Father Khan allow me to attend the banquet?"

Asto chōuchōu choked: "Didn't he say that I like anyone to do whatever I want?" Why do I like Yang Yuanqing and he quits? ”

"Did Father Khan say so? You are not allowed to contact Yang Yuanqing? Anuri asked curiously.

Asto shook his head, "Although he didn't say that, I know that's what he thinks, he is bent on marrying me to Brother Qibi, Anuri, you should know." ”

Brother Qibi Bo is the youngest son of the great chief of the Tiele tribe, Anuri of course understands in her heart that their father Khan likes to do this kind of thing, marrying his nv son to the son of the big chief of the Tiele tribe, last time he wanted to marry himself to Xue Qiluo of the Xue Yantuo tribe, and two days ago he said that he wanted to marry an NV to Brother Qibi, but this does not necessarily refer to Asduo.

"Asto, I don't think this matter is still far away, and it's not realistic, that Brother Qibi is only nine years old this year, and he can't think about marrying a wife until he is at least fourteen years old, and you are eighteen years old at that time. You've already been married early, and I think it's more likely that Ah Mí will marry Brother Qibi. Father Khan doesn't necessarily mean you. ”

Amí is the other son of the Khan of Qimin, who is only eight years old, and is not a mother with Anuri.

Ah Siduo wiped away his tears, looked up and asked, "Then why didn't Father Khan allow me to attend the family banquet to welcome General Yang?" I was not allowed to attend with all my family members. ”

"This ..... There could be something else. ”

Anuri thought of her father Khan's rebuke to her husband, and she smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe it's because Father Khan doesn't want General Yang to have too much contact with his clansmen, especially because I'm afraid that you will have too much contact with him." ”

Asto sighed lowly, "Anuri, do you think he's going to like me?" ”

In fact, this is what gives Anuri a headache. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Yang Yuanqing doesn't mean that kind of thing to his sister at all. But her sister was wishful thinking, making the whole clan know that she liked Yang Yuanqing, and several young warriors who wanted to pursue her dispelled their thoughts.

Asduo has been enthusiastic about everything for three days since she was a child, and she has no interest in three days at most, last time she fell in love with Yang Yuanqing, Anuri didn't take this matter to heart, thinking that after three days, Asduo would inevitably forget him. I didn't expect it to be almost a year. She still remembered him, and she had a deep affection for him, which made Anuri a little bigger. She didn't know how to persuade her sister.

She thought about it and smiled: "When we were chasing butterflies when we were children, the more fierce we chased, the more we couldn't catch it, but when we didn't want to chase it anymore, it stopped beside us, I think Yang Yuanqing is a butterfly, the better you are to him, the less he values you." ”

"Anuri, do you mean to make me cold to him?"

Anuri shook her head, "You don't need to be as cold as ice, as long as you treat him with a plain heart, he can feel that he has lost one of the most beautiful prairie swans, and he will cherish you." ”

Anuri smirked again, "That's how I subdued Utu back then, do you remember?" I was cold to him during last year. ”

"Ahh It turns out that you were pretending to be at that time. Asto covered his mouth in surprise.

"Of course it's pretending, if I'm really cold, will I still agree to marry him? But you can't tell Utu that he's still in the dark. ”

Asto nodded, "I won't tell him." ”

She then sighed again, "He is Han, and he is not by your side every day like Utu, so this method is probably not effective for him." ”

Anuli has good intentions, she wants to help her sister get rid of this unrealistic relationship and get rid of her unrequited love for Yang Yuanqing, first of all, she must let her sister have as little contact with Yang Yuanqing as possible, and let time wear off this relationship.

Anuri smiled again, "It has nothing to do with whether he is Han or not, men all over the world are like this, but you always pester him like this, it will only make him despise you and look down on you, so be it!" Let me go talk to him and I'll see what your chances really are? ”

Asto thought about it and agreed, "Okay then! I'm waiting for your news. ”

She took out a pot of the best Ma Nǎi wine from the box and handed it to Anuri, "This is the best wine I made for him, it is the best wine in the Turks, I hope he will like it." ”

Anuri put her arm around her sister's shoulders and smiled: "You just be happy, don't think nonsense, if you feel bored, go to Wei Chi to chat, in short, I also hope that your wish will be fulfilled." ”

.........

In Princess Yicheng's big tent, Yang Yuanqing respectfully presented Princess Yicheng with a gift from Queen Xiao to her, a Bi yù flute.

"Empress Xiao said, I hope this flute can relieve your homesickness."

Princess Yicheng knelt down and took Xiao Di and nodded, "Please General Yang tell Empress Xiao that I will remember her care." ”

"I will definitely write to tell you."

Princess Yicheng stood up and said with a smile: "I forgot that you are in Fengzhou, not in the capital, forget it, I still write a letter, and you send someone to Beijing." ”

"General Yang, please take a seat!"

Princess Yicheng invited Yang Yuanqing to sit down, and a cup of tea was served next to him, Yang Yuanqing took a closer look at the teacup, there were only a few leaves that were light and light, and it was strange that those Turkic people who pursued strong would like this kind of tea, no wonder Dye Gan saw that it was tea and was disappointed, at this moment, Yang Yuanqing suddenly became confident, and he asked them to cook a pound of tea at a time, and they would definitely like it.

"What, General Yang is interested in this tea?" Princess Yicheng couldn't help but ask curiously when she saw Yang Yuanqing staring at the tea intently.

"One of the purposes of my visit this time is to sell tea and make the Turks like to drink tea. I'm going to do tea trade with them in the future. ”

"It's useless!"

Princess Yicheng shook her head and smiled: "They don't like tea, I've been here for so many years." Teach them how to sencha, a little heat and a little water, but it didn't work, no one liked it, only Anuri listened to me. ”

"Not necessarily, I think I can convince them."

Yang Yuanqing took a sip of the tea slowly, although it was very light, but the mouth was fragrant, it was estimated that only the southern Han people knew how to drink this kind of tea. The Han people in the north did not necessarily like it either, let alone the Turkic people

"That's right. Why doesn't the princess attend the family dinner? Yang Yuanqing remembered that Princess Yicheng didn't attend just now, and Dye Gan didn't explain, he thought she was sick.

"It's that I don't want to go, I don't want to be so hypocritical."

Princess Yicheng sighed and said: "If it is a formal banquet, I will participate in it, and I will give him a face, but for a family banquet, I don't want to force myself." ”

Yang Yuanqing was stunned. He didn't understand what Princess Yicheng meant?

Princess Yicheng smiled faintly and said, "When I went to the Sui Dynasty with him, we seemed to be very affectionate and intimate. It was just a pretense for the sake of the saints, but in fact he and I were only husband and wife in name. I'm just an identity, Turkic Kedun. ”

Yang Yuanqing remembered the intimacy between Dye Gan and other wives at the family banquet, he understood a little, Dye Gan didn't like Princess Yicheng as his wife at all, and he made Princess Yicheng as Kedun, which was just a jiāo generation for the Great Sui Dynasty, which was often the end of a political marriage.

Yang Yuanqing was helpless, so he turned the topic to business, "This time I came to the Turks, and another purpose was to form an alliance with the Qimin Khan and jointly deal with Xue Yantuo, but the Qimin Khan was not willing to talk about this matter, does Her Royal Highness the princess think it is unrealistic?" ”

Princess Yicheng smiled and asked, "Does General Yang represent the Great Sui or Fengzhou?" ”

"On the side of the imperial court, we can report afterwards, in an emergency, the Holy Lord allows the envoys to decide some things independently, and Changsun Sheng has also done this before."

"So he won't agree, if you have a holy decree to put pressure on him, maybe he has to agree, reluctantly send troops, if there is no holy decree, he will definitely not fight Xue Yantuo, Xue Yantuo has broken away from the Western Turks, Dye Gan is doing everything possible to win over Xue Yantuo and resolve the previous hatred, this time I heard that Xue Yantuo suffered a catastrophe, Dye Gan also promised to help them with a million sheep, but you let him fight Xue Yantuo, how is this possible?"

"What the princess means, it is absolutely impossible for him to attack Xue Yantuo."

"Yes, it is absolutely impossible, unless Xue Yantuo is dizzy and comes to attack the Qimin Department by himself, otherwise, you can only break this thought."

Since he had said this point, Yang Yuanqing understood that his political mission had failed this time, and they could only ask the imperial court for support, but the civil officials of the imperial court would often wait for what losses had occurred in Fengzhou before considering sending troops, and it was already too late by then, which was also the reason why Yujuluo and Yang Yuanqing did not count on the imperial court.

Now that the political mission has failed, I hope that he can gain something in the tea trade, and he really does not want to go back empty-handed.

.......

By the Egen River, Fat Fish and Yu Chi Wan walked slowly, although Fat Fish had thousands of feelings along the way, but when he really arrived at Yu Chi Juan's side, he became clumsy and stupid, and he didn't know how to express his admiration.

"Wei Chi, when you were in the army before, no one bullied you! For example, Liu Jian and them, those sè ghosts, bastards! ”

Fat Yu scolded with hatred, he felt that Liu Jian's hún egg must have done something, his sè ghost, he didn't even let go of the female mosquito, would he let Wei Chi go?

Yu Chiwan was completely dressed as a Turkic NV, and even the long knife on his waist was a Turkic knife, which made Fat Yu even more worried.

Yu Chiwan shook his head, "Where did you think of going?" The general has always protected me, how can I be bullied, besides, I have only been in the same account with you for a few months, I am still an eagle slave, and the eagle will protect me, but it is a little inconvenient to live with you. ”

The fat fish breathed a long sigh of relief, as long as he was not bullied.

"Wei Chi, I have something..."

He finally mustered up the courage to say, "Wei Chi, you and me.... Let's go back! I don't want you to marry a Turk. ”

Yu Chiwan smiled, "How could you have thought that I would marry a Turk, even if I have that heart, the princess will not allow it." ”

"But... You'll be twenty-one soon, and I'll be twenty-five. ”

In a hurry, the fat fish finally said what was on his mind, his face was swollen and red, and he turned around and left.

"Fat Fish!" Yu Chiwan stopped him, the fat fish stopped, and said without replying: "I'm sorry, Yu Chi, I'm fat and greedy for money, and my character is not good, how can you take a fancy to me, it's me who wants to eat swans." ”

Yu Chiwan walked up to him, wiped the sweat on his forehead for him and said with a smile: "I'm not a swan, and you're not a toad, because the princess is too lonely now, I don't want to leave her, do you understand?" ”

"But I'm willing to wait for you, when you're thirty-five years old, someone else will be a grandfather, and I'll be the bridegroom, is that okay?"

Yu Chiwan's eyes were a little red, and she nodded lightly, "I don't dare to go home when I go back to the Central Plains this time, but I still want to see my father, next year, you can accompany me home, is it okay?" ”

The fat fish jumped up happily, "I am willing, I will definitely accompany you next year, if Yang Yuanqing's kid dares to stop me, I will ...... with a knife"

He suddenly didn't dare to continue, he saw Yang Yuanqing coming out of the princess's tent from a distance, he suddenly smiled slyly, and thought of the topic that Wei Chi would be interested in, "Wei Chi, let me tell you the story of General Yang!" That sister of his, you know, is also in Dali City. ”

"Hmmm! You say, I'd love to hear it. ”
