Chapter Twenty-Six: The Ursu Dynasty
Only a few days later, I heard that Usu's mission was only a few miles away from the city gates. The Emperor of Chu ordered the city to be decorated to welcome the courtiers.
Wusu is located at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, the court tent is set up in Yanyun City, there are more than 10,000 miles to Dachu, 600,000 people, and 280,000 soldiers. The folk customs gradually became stronger, and almost everyone in the prime of the country was still martial, and he conquered the countries of the Western Regions and became the strongest overlord in the Western Regions.
It's just that this powerful Wusu in the West suddenly came to the DPRK, and there must be some political conspiracy.
Early in the morning, the Wusu delegation entered the city, and the princess, her father, Xia Duo and other courtiers and nobles were summoned into the palace. Xia Chuxin naturally will not let go of this great time. packed up a simple outfit, looked at himself in the bronze mirror, and recently looked a lot better.
Squatting in the gate to observe for a while, seeing that the two guards did not squint, he mustered up the courage, and walked out of the gate without stopping, and then walked forward, until he walked to the street one hundred and ten meters away from the gate of the princess's mansion before daring to turn back, the two guards were still standing straight, did I add a new stealth skill?
Just thinking about it, someone patted him on the shoulder, and he shuddered, and turned around to be the housekeeper's uncle.
"Is the second lady going out?"
Xia Chuxin smiled awkwardly: "Ah, Xia Bo, where did you come from?" ”
The housekeeper said with an expression of insight into everything: "Hehe, Wusu's mission has entered the city, there are many people on the street, and the eldest prince has instructed that the second lady needs to go early and return early." ”
"Big brother?"
"That's right. Before the eldest young master entered the palace, he specially instructed the old slave that if the second lady wanted to go out, he would let the guards at the door let him go, but the second young lady should go early and return early. ”
Oops, what's going on? What about the two faces of this black-faced sullen man? Sure enough, people's hearts are full of flesh, how can there be people who can't cover their heat.
In this way, I said goodbye to the housekeeper uncle with peace of mind. I've been here for more than half a year, and I've never come out to go shopping and see the scenery. What's more, it's a big day for foreign envoys to visit, and it's really sorry for my gossip attribute if I don't join in the excitement.
It was difficult to find a place to go down in the bustling streets, and I heard from the crowd that the prince and princess of Usu had entered the city gate, and now they were heading towards Tongbu Street in the direction of the palace. It is said that the prince of Nawusu is brave and mighty, and the princess is even more outstanding. also said that Wusu was really different from Da Chu, and the princess of that family even came on horseback like a man. There is also the prince's attendant, I don't know what his identity is, he looks like a tall young man, but he covers half of his face with a black and gold mask, which is a little terrifying at first glance.
Being squeezed in the crowd and listening to these gossip, Xia Chuxin regretted a little why he came out to join in the fun, after all, now he is just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl with a thin body, not the powerful twenty-seven-year-old woman.
As the crowd moved slowly, after a while, he heard the joyful sound of the musicians playing happily, stood on tiptoe and looked vigorously in that direction, and finally saw the Usu Mission.
At the front were eight guards, followed by a red horse, and the man on the horse looked like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old man of great martial arts, dressed in fine clothes, and a pretty woman on a white horse alongside him, about the same age as himself, dressed in a round-necked dress, with many braids on his head, and colored threads of different colors tied between his hair. These two are the princes and princesses of Wusu, both of whom have high noses and deep eyes, and they exude exotic customs that the people of Dachu have never seen.
On the horse behind the two was a twelve or thirteen-year-old young man dressed in an ink-colored beard, with his hair tied but half covered with a black and gold mask, suddenly, the young man set his eyes on Xia Chuxin in the crowd, that gaze was sharp and cold, only a glance, the young man withdrew his gaze, and walked forward with the horse team.
Xia Chuxin stood in the crowd in a daze, recalling the gaze just now, and had some indescribable feelings in his heart.
In the end, with the crowd came to the vicinity of the palace, and the Yulin army had set up a barricade in front of them, and the people were forbidden to go. The no-go zone is guarded by a group of feather guards. was trying to escape from the crowd, but was dragged out, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Helianmo's attendant Pinggu.
"Pinggu?"
"My family greeted me in the palace and ordered that if I saw the second lady, I would bring it into the palace. Pinggu has been waiting here for a long time. ”
What's going on today? Xia Chuxin thinks I don't behave so much on weekdays, right? It seems that everyone has calculated that she will go out today to join in the fun. However, since Helian Mo is so enthusiastic, it is not easy to live up to his kindness. He followed Pinggu from the back of the crowd to the no-go zone. Pinggu showed the waist card on his waist, and the guarding feather guard made a gap, and the two quickly entered the palace gate through this gap.
Walking all the way, Xia Chuxin followed Pinggu to a garden, from time to time there were polite music and human voices, this garden should not be far from the Mingxin Hall where the envoys saw it.
"Second Miss, let's wait here, as long as Wusu's mission enters the hall, the prince can come."
"Oh, how did you know I was coming out?"
Pinggu smiled and said, "The prince said that the second lady is a person who can't be idle, and she will definitely come out to join in the fun." And the people from the princess's mansion will definitely not take you into the palace, so the prince will wait for the second lady in Pinggu. ”
This Helian Mo is like a roundworm in his stomach, can't go on like this, this stupid boy is now bent on himself, but sooner or later he will go back? We must not do such a thing that poisons the seedlings.
Having made up his mind, Xia Chuxin was ready to explain it to him clearly when he saw Helian Mo for a while.
After taking a look at this garden, the royal style should not be underestimated, Xia Chuxin sat on the railing of the corridor and looked at Pinggu beside him.
Pinggu looks like he should be fifteen or sixteen years old, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, revealing a trace of integrity and resoluteness from his appearance.
"Pinggu, are you also from Beiguan?"
Pinggu thought for a while and said, "Second Miss Hui, Pinggu is also from Beiguan." ”
"Count?"
"Pinggu is the same as the son, he grew up in the Central Plains since he was born, and later came to the capital with the son, in fact, only the year before last, he returned to Beiguan once."
"And where are your parents? Is it in Beiguan? ”
Pinggu paused and said: "Pinggu's parents are the vanguard envoys of the king, and they died in the Beiguan Holy War to protect the king and defend Beiguan, and after that, Pinggu was sent by the princess to the Central Plains to learn martial arts to protect the prince. ”
I see. Xia Chuxin no longer asked, he should have been a carefree and upward clan boy, but he had been burdened with the responsibility of protecting Helian Mo since birth. It's really ridiculous to say, even if the winner is the king and the loser becomes the villain, but the unjust act of Helian Tao killing his brother to seize the throne turned into a holy war to defend Beiguan many years later. And in this endless river of history, how many facts have been distorted?
"Is it Sister Chuxin?"
The thoughts were pulled back by an immature female baby's voice. Looking in the direction where the voice came from, Princess Huaiyu had already run towards her, and the maidservant behind her followed with a nervous face.
"The princess is well." Xia Chuxin got up and said.
Princess Huaiyu pouted and said, "Sister Chuxin, why are you saluting me again." You are Huaiyu's sister, so you don't have to salute me. ”
Seeing that she was a little person but angry, Xia Chuxin hurriedly smiled and said, "Okay, I won't salute you in the future, and I will save a lot of trouble." ”
Hearing her say this, the little baby became happy again, and said, "Sister, why didn't you come to Huaiyu when you entered the palace, Huaiyu's health has been much better recently." ”
"Hehe, didn't I meet you just when I was about to look for you?" When he said this, his heart was empty.
"Is Brother Yi here?"
"The second brother is in the front hall."
"When will Brother Yi come to Huaiyu?"
"When the envoy of the Wusu Kingdom enters the inner hall, the second brother will be able to disperse, and then they can come to you."
"Hmph." As soon as he heard that he couldn't see Xia Yi for the time being, Su Huaiyu's little face became puffed up again.
"These people in Wusu are really annoying, aren't they a small country with a side area? Why did so many of us Da Chu go to greet him? ”
"This is to show that our Dachu is a state of etiquette. Let's wait a little longer, and we'll see you soon. ”
"Don't, Huaiyu is going to see Brother Yi now." As he spoke, Su Huaiyu's eyes were filled with tears.
Oh my God, I got lovesick at a young age, so what should I do?
"Huh?" Su Huaiyu seemed to have thought of some good idea, her face turned pale, she was overjoyed, and said, "Sister Chuxin, let's go to the main hall too." ”
"This is not possible, without the permission of the emperor, female dependents are forbidden to enter the main hall during the Congress." Xia Chuxin just came to join in the fun, but he didn't want to make extraneous branches.
Su Huaiyu made up his mind, pulled Xia Chuxin's sleeve and walked forward, saying as he walked: "That's the other female dependents I am talking about, this is my father's palace, Huaiyu can go wherever he wants." ”
Xia Chuxin was surprised when he heard this, that's right, that's your father's palace, where do you want to go, but it's not my father, in case I get caught, but I have to go wherever your father wants me to go.
wanted to stop, but in vain, this little girl who looked sick on weekdays has now become a strange force Lori, and Xia Chuxin was dragged forward by her.
"Pinggu, Pinggu, Pinggu." Xia Chuxin tilted his head and shouted at Pinggu.
Pinggu was about to step forward, but Su Huaiyu glared at him fiercely and said, "You dare to stop this princess?" ”
Helpless, Pinggu could only report with a helpless expression.
Come on, help, I don't want to die!
