Chapter 539: The Gift of Love

Speaking of mastery of the topography of Lingnan, these Yue people are even more proficient than guides, and in recent decades, this small Huang Yue alone has migrated many times, and each time they cannot live in one area for a long time. Liu Yue also learned that Duo Lin's parents had died during another migration a few years earlier, when Huang Yue was still a relatively large ethnic group in North Vietnam.

Because of this, Daqiu at that time looked disdainful in the face of Bai Yue's He clan, but now, there are only dozens of women and children left in the entire Huang Yue, who want to beg Bai Yue's people to find a place to live.

In Lingnan, if there are no men, the women and children of these ethnic minorities are like orphaned souls. The caravan walked with Huang Yue's people for a day, and Liu Yue could clearly feel that Huang Yue's women were "seducing" these young men around Liu Yu, they had the unique customs of the Yue people, and they also had the openness that the women of the Central Plains did not have, Liu Yue could feel the spring mood of the soldiers around him spreading.

Doreen, on the other hand, felt that this was very bad, and she didn't care about the fact that the women of the same race helped the soldiers make fires and make meals, but she couldn't help but accuse other people who had "transgressed the courtesy", and she and the women of the same race seemed to be very unhappy about this matter. Every time Duo Lin went to say, when it came to the most embarrassing thing, her eyes must have fallen on Liu Yu, and Huang Yue's women seemed to say: "Look, you have one, why don't you let us find it?" ”

Doreen was young and thin-skinned, so she basically didn't say anything about it.

Food and water were necessary for the Huangyue people when they fled, and Liu Yu's caravan could not provide much help to the Huangyue people, and basically only had medicinal herbs. But these Huangyue people are very knowledgeable about the herbs in the mountains, even Duo Lin. She can also tell which ones are useful to her. Pick up the herbs casually and chew them to apply to the wound. And it works pretty well.

The children of the poor are in charge of the family early, and for an ethnic minority like Huang Yue who depends on the sky for food, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl must marry if she can't even take care of herself. Liu Yu could see that Duo Lin was very capable, at least among the women of the clan, she also had a special status.

Everywhere he went, Liu Yu would mark the map. Although the map is very sloppy and may not be useful to mark the future, Liu Yu still tries to remember the way so as not to get lost when he returns. Originally, the mountain road they chose to go to Yizhou was at the junction of the ethnic minority gathering area and the local military force, but now they are taking the road in the hinterland of the ethnic minority gathering area, where the environmental conditions are even worse, but there is no local military nuisance.

Along the way, all the barren mountains and mountains, Liu Yu couldn't help but imagine himself as a Daqiu who was migrating with his people, trying to find a habitat in this poor mountain and bad water. It is indeed not an easy task. Liu Yu also began to understand why the Huangyue people respected Lao Daqiu so much.

"A little further south, you will reach the range of the Baiyue tribe." Three days later at dusk. The group was making a fire to cook, and Duo Lin came over and said to Liu Yu.

Liu Yu nodded with a smile while roasting the dried meat, he had always wondered about something, Doreen was obviously a child when she was young when she last migrated, but she was leading the way all the way.

"Have you been to Baiyue's village?" Liu Yu asked.

"Hmm." Doreen nodded shyly, "A year ago, our people suffered a famine, and Daqiu took his brother and I to Baiyue and borrowed food from them. ”

"They borrowed it?"

"Well, but they also had difficulties with Bai Yue, and only lent us very little, and then we survived that time by eating leaves."

Originally, Liu Yue thought that the Baiyue tribe's small-bellied chicken intestines would not be borrowed, but he didn't expect them to be quite generous. After all, in Lingnan, in the event of a natural disaster, the two villages are not far away, and no one can escape, Bai Yue can explain that the Bai Yue people also know that they unite and help each other in the face of difficulties.

Liu Yu said: "Tomorrow you will enter the realm of Baiyue, but do you need us to escort you up the mountain?" ”

Duo Lin hurriedly said: "No, the Baiyue people are very hostile to the Han people, and they think that the Han people make them homeless. Originally, the land of Baiyue was very fertile, and it was the Han people who robbed them of their homes, and they once said that they would not let go of any Han people. ”

"Oh." Liu Yu nodded, "Tomorrow you go up the mountain, I wish you good luck." ”

"Hmm." Doreen also nodded, but she didn't know what to say.

Today's relationship, they are quite harmonious with each other, especially Liu Yu took his people to save her clansmen, Duo Lin is also full of gratitude, but there is a banquet in the world, and she will soon be separated, and she is also going to take the only remaining clansmen to send people under the fence, she herself is just a young man, and she usually doesn't know what it feels like, but now that the family is broken and people are separated, how can she be sentimental.

Duo Lin sat next to Liu Yu, watching Liu Yu barbecue, while looking around, as if looking for someone.

"What are you looking for?"

"The ...... of the big boss Oh, I hear them all call you that, can I call you Brother? Duo Lin suddenly looked at Liu Yu very sincerely and asked.

Liu Yue knew that "Brother" meant elder brother in the Huangyue clan, and Duo Lin called her brother like this, Liu Yue smiled and nodded: "Yes, then should I call you ...... Mei? ”

Doreen's face suddenly turned red, her head lowered slightly, and she nodded again, "Hmm." ”

Liu Yu couldn't help but smile on his face, this brother and sister are like talking about love, this Duolin is an uncivilized little girl, thin-skinned, even if she recognizes him as a brother, she will not have a chance to meet in the future.

"Sister, is there anything I can do with my brother?" Liu Yu half-jokingly.

“…… Is Sister-in-law here? Doreen asked suddenly.

"Sister-in-law?" Liu Yu was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood who she was talking about, and pointed to Qu Ning, who was wrapping bandages with the soldiers over there, "It's not there." ”

Duo Lin watched Qu Ning seriously wrap the bandages and boil the medicine for the soldiers, and only sighed slightly after a long time: "Sister-in-law is really virtuous." ”

Liu Yu was quite helpless in his heart, can Qu Ning, a man's wife, still be called "virtuous"? is like an enemy to a man, and only when she completes her job, that is, when she is a medical woman, will she let go of that stinky face a little.

"Brother, I have something for you, I hope we can't meet in the future, and you can still think of me." Duo Lin suddenly handed a yellow thing to Liu Yu, and then ran away in shame. Liu Yuzheng frowned and felt that there was something wrong with Dolin today, and took a closer look at what she stuffed, it was a yellow cloth bag, which should have been sewn very carefully with needle and thread, it seemed to be a purse, and it also seemed to be a small pocket for things.

Liu Yuzheng looked at the yellow cloth bag inexplicably, Qu Ning walked over to this side, and asked a little narrowly as soon as he came over, "Did you succeed?" ”

"What's the catch?"

"Why did Your Highness pretend to be garlic, did you come here to send you a love token?" Qu Ning smiled and sat down next to Liu Yu, "Look, I still said that I didn't succeed." Even the love token of the Huangyue girl has been obtained, and it seems that there will be another love rival under His Majesty in the future, alas! O misfortune of the country! ”

Liu Yu also realized that since he left Meiguan, Qu Ning had lost a little respect for him, as if he really regarded himself as a princess.

Liu Yu stuffed the cloth bag into his arms at will, and saw Duo Lin sitting in front of the bonfire of the women of the same tribe from a distance, looking at this side with his knees hugged, Liu Yu smiled at Duo Lin, and Duo Lin also smiled and nodded in return.

Liu Yu asked Qu Ningdao: "Do you know what this is?" ”

"The little woman listened to the women in her clan talking on the side, saying that Dorin's little girl was going to come and confess to you, and she estimated that she would not go to Baiyue's village with them, so she came to take a look. The little woman also knew that the girls of the Huangyue tribe would give a thing embroidered with their name to their lover as a token of love...... Your Highness has nothing to hide, right? ”

Liu Yu pulled out the cloth bag, and there were a few words embroidered with red thread on it, but not two words but three, of course, Liu Yu couldn't understand the words on it, it should be a unique font for ethnic minorities in the south.

"She just came to recognize me as a brother, and she didn't give a gift to her brother as a sister?" Liu Yu frowned.

"Your Highness, you may not know that in the Huangyue clan, you respect your brother when you call your brother, and you call your brother Brother when you are not related by blood...... Giggles, that's calling the lover. Qu Ning smiled happily, "It's bad, it's bad, Your Royal Highness Linwang, you are taken by the girl of the Yue family, and it is estimated that you can't escape." ”

"Can you understand the language of the Yue people?" Liu Yu asked.

"Just because the little woman doesn't say it doesn't mean I don't understand. Your Highness ......"

"Shut up!"

Liu Yu straightened his face, as if he was angry, Qu Ning's body shook, and she felt that it might be her faux pas that made Liu Yu angry. She was about to apologize, but Liu Yu's face suddenly smiled again, and Qu Ning realized that he was just pretending just now.

"Doctor Qu, this matter is not very easy to do, what do you think this king should do?"

"Those young ladies who didn't take a fancy to His Highness, His Highness may not be willing to let go. What's more, Dolin is in love with His Royal Highness, and he voluntarily wants to go with His Highness, and His Highness has to bring one more person by his side. ”

Liu Yu suddenly remembered Duo Lin's shame and the melancholy on her face before, and probably guessed that she should be worried about Qu Ning.

"Qu Yinu, do you know that the men of the Yue tribe are monogamous or have three wives and four concubines?"

Qu Ning shook his head and said, "I don't know." Why don't you ask the little girl for your highness? ”

Although Liu Yu was a little tempted by Duo Lin, but he didn't want to occupy it, compared to Duo Lin, Liu Yu wanted to conquer the unknown Qu Ning in front of him, although Liu Yu didn't have much interest in Qu Ning.

"Forget it. When the south is pacified, I will come over again when I have time to help them recover their due benefits. ”

Qu Ning listened to Liu Yu's meaning, and knew that Liu Yue didn't want to bring one more person to trouble, Qu Ning sighed: "The girls of their Yue clan have not been married until they are sixteen years old, and when the time comes, His Royal Highness will come over and return disappointed, so it won't be good, right?"
