If Guangyang Street is an eye-opener for Qiu Yizhi, then the Turkic Horse Market is simply another world. The field of vision was full of curly-haired and bearded foreigners, the melodious Turkic words were recalled in their ears, the body odor of cattle and sheep was filled with the nostrils, and even the layer of sand wrapped in the skin made Yizhi extremely excited. Zheng Miao had also been to the horse market a few times before, but they were all accompanied by his father and brothers, but today he came to the horse market with Qiu Yizhi, who was one year younger than him, and he was responsible for following his brother, which made Zheng Miao full of adventure and excitement.

Because there are no fixed buildings in this horse market, it is still a wide passage today, and it may be a new guest business district tomorrow, so there is no fixed route to follow. Qiu Yizhi couldn't walk a few steps in the horse market, so he lost Zheng Xin and Zheng Sen with him, and hurriedly turned back to find Zheng Miao, fortunately he was still beside him, and hurriedly asked: "Can my brother still see where the two brothers are?" ”

Zheng Miao shook her head, but she was not worried, and said, "It's always in this market, let's find it slowly." ”

With Zheng Miao's words, Yizhi also put his mind at ease, looking for his brothers, and watching this never-before-seen wonder. As I walked, there was a sudden commotion in the horse market, and I didn't know what was going on, but I saw that those who were doing business stopped shouting, and leaned in one direction. Yizhi couldn't figure out what was going on, so he turned his head and asked Zheng Miao. Unexpectedly, Zheng Miao, who was still by his side, had already run a few steps, turned around and shouted at Yizhi: "With such a big movement, my brothers will definitely go, let's go and take a look!" After shouting, he continued to run. Qiu Yizhi felt justified when he heard it, but he was afraid that even Zheng Miao wouldn't be able to find it, so he hurriedly followed.

Qiu Yizhi ran a few steps and finally caught up with Zheng Miao, grabbed his clothes, lest he run again, and when he looked up, he saw several layers of visitors. Zheng Miao stared at a pair of big and round eyes, and winked at Yizhi a few times, as if to say: Let's take a look too? Although Yizhi was three points afraid, seven points of curiosity made him nod, took Zheng Miao's hand and squeezed into the pile.

The two of them were short and flexible, looking for a vacant place for the crowd to squeeze, and after a while, they squeezed into the bottom of the crowd, and then they saw a Turkic man in the open space, dragging a girl and about to go out. Yizhi had no interest in the Turkic dwarf man, but his eyes looked the girl up and down. The girl looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, dressed in a bright red robe with yellow and blue trim, and at first glance she was known to be dressed as a Turkic, but she looked different from the ordinary Turkic woman with a big mouth and small eyes—a thick brown curly hair tied into a ponytail like waves rippling in the air, a wheat-colored and healthy face with a small round nose, the clenched teeth in the cherry mouth, the willow eyebrows twisted into a pile, and the round light eyes showed the stubborn personality of her steppe daughter. Although the Turkic man was short, he had big shoulders and a round waist, and he waved his hands to catch the girl, but the girl did not show weakness, and scratched the man's face and eyes with both hands, and the man immediately retracted his hands to protect his soft gear, but he couldn't help the girl. Suddenly, a Turk shouted something in the crowd, and the big man seemed to have some guidance, and he didn't catch the girl, so he simply picked her up from behind, put her under his armpit and was about to walk away. At this moment, several women, who were probably acquainted with the girl, rushed out, hugging their waists and hugging their legs, just not letting the man leave. In the midst of the stalemate, a dozen Turks jumped out of the crowd, lifted the obstructive woman like a chicken, threw it aside, and escorted the man to leave.

Qiu Yizhi has been bullied by his two uncles with his mother since he was a child, and he can't see women and children being bullied, but he is only a thirteen-year-old child.

Suddenly, seeing that the two brothers, Zheng Xin and Zheng Sen, were also in the crowd, Qiu Yizhi secretly made up his mind at an instant, gritted his teeth, and ran towards the Turkic man with the girl under his armpit like an arrow from the string, and kicked him hard. The man was caught off guard, and he ate this trick coldly, and his legs suddenly softened, and he didn't care about the side, he threw down the girl, covered the vital point with both hands, and rolled wildly on the ground. Qiu Yi saw that it was an opportunity, and he was about to run out by the girl's hand, but he didn't expect that the crowd around him had already surrounded this place of right and wrong, and the two of them couldn't rush out. A few Turks who came to help just now, after a moment of surprise, also came to their senses at this time, and one by one they pulled out the steel knives that they didn't know where they were hiding, and forced them towards Yizhi with murderous energy.

Qiu Yizhi swallowed his saliva, and was covered in cold sweat, but he didn't forget to protect the girl, but his eyes looked at Zheng Xin and Zheng Sen with pleading eyes. Zheng Xin and Zheng Sen originally planned to save the girl, but they didn't know the reason for the matter and didn't dare to do it easily. At this moment, Qiu Yizhi's eyes were obviously asking for his brother's help, Zheng Xin thought that this Guangyang City would just let the Turks commit murder, if the dignified Youyan Wang Yizi suffered a loss on the ground in the capital of Youyan Dao, then the Youyan Wangfu would have no face, so he stepped forward and pointed at the Turkic people with steel knives in their hands and scolded: "Northern slaves! I am Zheng Xin, the eldest son of King Youyan, where is this Guangyang City where you are committing murder, and if you don't quickly put down the murder weapon, you can be arrested! ”

Some of the Turks seemed to be able to understand Chinese, and they knew that the person in front of them had an extraordinary background, so they discussed a few words one after another, and although they still held the steel knife in their hands, they did not dare to take another step forward. At the moment when the atmosphere froze, Qiu Yizhi had already found the gap in the crowd, pulled the girl and ran out. When a dozen Turks saw it, they screamed and were about to chase after them. But before he moved half a step, the crowd scattered all of a sudden, and it turned out that it was Zheng Miao who saw Yizhi to save people, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to clean up, so he ran outside to find the Youyan officers and soldiers who were inspecting the horse market. When the officer saw that it was the young son of King Youyan who came to invite him personally, and heard that several princes were trapped by the Turks, he didn't think about ordering five hundred soldiers, copying stainless steel swords, and went to the place where the incident occurred. Even though a dozen Turks were extremely brave, where were they the opponents of 500 elite soldiers, they were disarmed in a few moments and tied up in a ball.

Qiu Yizhi couldn't control so much, so he took advantage of the chaos to save the girl and ran to Guangyang City, but he got lost between the streets and couldn't find the gate to enter the city. After running for a long time, the two men were out of breath, and when they turned around and saw that no one was chasing them, they found a poplar tree and sat in the shadows to breathe slowly.

The trunk of this poplar tree is straight, and it runs into the sky several feet high, and there are no trees around to compete with him for light, so that it stretches its branches to its heart's content, and the leaves fall away, looking like a thousand-armed Guanyin from afar. Qiu Yizhi saw that sweat was oozing from the girl's forehead and nose, as if it was a pear blossom with rain, and she liked it very much, and she didn't dare to look more and didn't want to look at it, and her two eyes looked around excitedly, but she was still attracted by the girl from time to time. Yizhi wanted to talk to her, at least ask the girl's name, but after thinking about it, she was a Turkic woman, and she didn't understand the Turkic language......

In the midst of sorrow, the girl patted Qiu Yizhi on the shoulder and said in Chinese: "Thank you for helping me out of the siege, what is your name?" ”

It was the first time that Yizhi had been so close to a woman other than his mother since he was a child, and he was shocked by the girl's fluent Chinese, and his mind was turbulent, thinking about how to answer, but he only said a few numbers: "My name is Qiu Yizhi, what about you?" ”

The girl didn't understand the reserve of the Han women in the Central Plains, and grinned: "I am a woman from the Ulin Yala clan, my name is Yibilu Kuyalaran, according to the rules of your Han people, you can call me Ulin Yala Yibirukuyalaran." ”

Qiu Yixin thought that you were very good, where did such a long name come from among the Han people, and I listened carefully twice and still didn't remember it clearly, so I scratched my head and said, "Your name is too long, right?" Just scream, and a stick of incense burns out. ”

The girl laughed: "You're right, it's too long, everyone in my family calls me Yi Ran!" ”

"Yiran...... Remembering ......" Qiu Yi said, "This situation can be recalled, but it was already lost at the time, what a good name!" ”

The Chinese of this girl from the Ulinyala clan was also learned in the street and country slang, and she couldn't imagine that the abbreviation of her name should respond to such two extremely beautiful Chinese poems, and she was very happy in her heart, so she also praised Qiu Yizhi: "Your name is also very good, but your courage is better than your name." ”

This sentence came to Yizhi's heart, and he asked, "Those Turks, why did they arrest you?" ”

Yi Ran didn't have any scheming, and said bluntly: "Those are all people from the Viromel clan, and they don't dare to compete with us Ulin Yala people on the grassland, but they come to arrest me, a little girl." But I don't know if I'm not easy to mess with, don't you escape! With that, there was a burst of laughter. It is not unusual for two children to hide under the shade of a tree and chat, but one wearing a Hanfu and the other wearing a Hurobe is too eye-catching, and Yiran's unbridled laughter inevitably attracts everyone's attention.

Qiu Yizhi hurriedly put his hand on his lips and made a silent gesture. This gesture is really common in the world, and Yiran immediately stopped laughing. Yizhi nodded at this time, and asked in a low voice: "Since you have said this, why are you defenseless?" Anyway, I have to let a few guards accompany me, what use can those old mothers have just now? ”

Yiran paused, smiled, and replied in a lower voice than Yizhi, "What do you know as a child?" Do you know that Prince Youyan captured more than 700 Turkic women and children? Seeing Yizhi's big eyes, Yi Ran felt a little proud in his heart, and continued, "Our Ulin Yala clan and the Piromel clan are fighting, see who is the real eagle on the grassland, the men are all going to fight, where is there anyone to protect us?" ”

Although Qiu Yizhi was young, he had seen some of the world with King Youyan, and while he was surprised, he also knew that this matter was really important, so he immediately changed his expression and said to the innocent girl next to him: "In this case, do you want to meet King Youyan?" ”

Hearing Qiu Yizhi say this, Yiran blinked, and suddenly laughed loudly: "I see that you are quite honest, and you can actually talk big." But this is not a good thing to say, you are such a child, how can you see the dignified Youyan King? Hahahaha......"

"Stop laughing! Whose children are you? A gruff voice interrupted Yiran's laughter. It turned out that the surrounding residents saw that the two children chatted for a long time, and their behavior was really suspicious, so they reported it to the government. The chief on duty in the outer city of Guangyang did not hesitate to receive the report, ordered five or six soldiers to investigate the big poplar tree, and sure enough, he saw two children talking under the tree, especially the girl in the bearded robe who was very presumptuous and laughing, so he rushed up to ask for an understanding.

This long reprimand was only half a sentence, but he didn't expect the Hanfu young man to grin and say, "Do you still recognize me?" ”

Shi Chang was taken aback when he heard this, and after a closer look, it was actually the righteous son of Youyan Wang, and hurriedly apologized: "It turns out that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is here to enjoy the coolness, a small faux pas!" ”

Among the five hundred elite soldiers brought by King Youyan when he entered Beijing, there was this chief, and Tongqiu Yizhi was also half an acquaintance, so Yizhi was not polite, and said: "I went out to play with the three brothers, and I didn't want to get lost, so I wanted to ask the trouble to lead the way, I don't know if it's convenient?" ”

Shi Chang smiled stupidly and said: "Since His Highness said it, Xiao is naturally happy, please go here ...... Your Highness" After saying that, he let go of the side and asked Yizhi to go ahead.

Qiu Yizhi stood up, pulled up the stunned Yiran again, patted the dirt on his buttocks, and walked in the direction pointed by Shi Chang.
