Chapter 126: The Old Man (1)
Cheng Jinrong's heart set off a huge wave.
In her previous life, she had been at the border for several years, and she recognized these men at a glance as Tatar cavalrymen.
The Tatars were a nomadic tribe of men and women of all ages who were good at riding horses and archery. Tatar cavalry, coming and going like the wind, fierce and murderous. The Tatar cavalry in front of me, all young and strong, with bright eyes, are the elite of the elite.
Why did so many Tatar cavalry suddenly appear in the capital? And just galloping on the royal streets in such a grand manner?
There is only one reason.
The Tatar prince came.
At this moment, the side face of a young man came into view.
This young man, about nineteen years old, was slender and extremely tall. Looking at the past from Cheng Jinrong's point of view, he couldn't see the man's face clearly at all.
But she recognized the young man at a glance.
Sure enough, it was him!
Tatar prince, Gathlan!
……
In that year, he went to Beijing to marry the princess. His mother is Princess Roujia, and Princess Roujia and Emperor Xuanhe are brother and sister. In this way, Jia Silan is also the nephew of Emperor Xuanhe.
Princess Roujia married far away, causing a truce between Da Chu and Tatar for five years. Later, the old Tatar Khan died of illness, and Princess Roujia endured the humiliation and committed herself to her brother-in-law Buchi. I don't know how much effort it took to raise my son as an adult.
Princess Roujia personally wrote a letter to Emperor Xuanhe, which was full of twenty years of sadness and pain, and wanted to marry the princess for her son.
I haven't seen each other for 20 years, and only Emperor Xuanhe knows how much brother and sister love is left. However, from a political point of view, harmony is undoubtedly a good thing.
First, he came to recuperate for a few years of truce, and secondly, Bu Chi made a promise before the old khan died that he would give up the position of khan to his nephew after marrying a wife and having children. Bu Chi is an ambitious man, how can he really give up the position of Khan? When Gathlan marries, there will be a civil war in Tatar.
This is of course a good thing for the Great Chu Dynasty. It is better to have internal strife in Tatar and the depletion of troops. Da Chu will be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
In order to show his sincerity in marrying the princess, he took a Chinese name for himself, took Yuan as his surname, and called himself Yuan Silan. He lived in the capital for two years.
In the end, Emperor Xuanhe responded to the harmony and married his beloved daughter Princess Shouning to Yuan Silan.
Emperor Xuanhe must not have expected that within two years, he would relapse from his old illness and return to the West. The eldest prince succeeded to the throne as emperor and killed the second prince. And the second prince had already secretly colluded with Yuan Silan, and the Tatar cavalry successfully broke through the border pass. also ruined half of Dachu's country.
During the two years that Yuan Silan was in the capital, she only heard of his name, but did not see him. Later, Yuan Silan personally led the troops to break through the border passes, and led the Tatar cavalry to burn, kill and loot, killing and cruelty, and was notorious. It can stop crying in three-year-old children.
The first time she saw him, he was seriously injured and would have been cured for a long time, and he would choke at any moment.
The handsome and evil face was pale from the pain, but the eyes were fierce.
She hid the hatred in her heart tightly and healed his serious injuries with exquisite healing skills. Yuan Silan wanted to marry her as a side concubine, half because she was young and beautiful, and the other half valued her wonderful medical skills and wanted to keep her by her side.
He must not have imagined that he would end up dying at her hands.
……
reuniting with the "old man" made Cheng Jinrong feel uneasy, and subconsciously stared at the figure of the young man.
At this moment, I don't know how many people are staring at the Tatar prince on the horse. The young man glanced nonchalantly.
Cheng Jinrong came back to his senses awe-inspiring and quickly lowered the car curtain.
Cheng Jing'an was looking at it, and was stunned by Cheng Jinrong's sudden move: "Cousin Rong, what's wrong with you?" ”
Cheng Jinrong's heart was not flat, but his face was quite calm: "These people don't know where they came from, their appearance is very different from ours, and their clothes are strange. Looks weird. ”
The Tatar prince came to the Great Chu Dynasty to ask for relatives, which was a major event of the national dynasty. All civil and military officials, no one knows. After Cheng Fang returned home, he also mentioned it twice.
Zhao lowered his voice and said, "Among these people, there must be a Tatar prince. I heard that the Tatar prince entered Beijing to seek a truce and peace, and asked to marry a princess. ”
The three of Cheng Jinghong's brothers and sisters, who heard about this for the first time, showed shocked expressions together.
Cheng Jinrong also pretended to be surprised: "It turned out to be a Tatar cavalry!" No wonder it looks so fierce! ”
Great Chu and Tatar fought one after another, as a Great Chu person, he naturally hated the Tatar cavalry, and it was difficult to have a good impression. Zhao frowned and whispered, "I don't know how long these people will stay in the capital." In short, if you meet them in the future, you would rather take a detour and never have anything to do with them. ”
The four brothers and sisters of the Cheng family nodded together.
Cheng Jingan even grinned and said, "My mother is too worried." We don't go anywhere except the medicine hall all day. How can it be involved with them! ”
Not necessarily.
Cheng Jinrong thought silently in his heart, and echoed with a smile in his mouth: "The second cousin is reasonable. Tatar cavalry, we can't afford to provoke, just hide farther away. ”
For the Cheng family's mother and son, this is just a small episode. The crowd quickly put the matter behind them. The carriage drove towards the medicine hall.
……
Half an hour later.
Inside the Bohol Temple.
Emperor Xuanhe summoned several generals to discuss the matter.
He Qi and Pei Zhang were called to accompany them as usual. The two stood solemnly, their right hands resting on the hilt of their long swords and the hilt of their swords.
Gonggong Zhao walked in quickly and bowed down to report: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince of Tatar has been summoned into the palace, and he has arrived outside the Baohe Palace at this time. ”
As soon as the name of the Tatar prince entered his ears, a trace of cold killing intent flashed in He Qi's eyes.
Those who practice martial arts are particularly sensitive to murderous aura.
Pei Zhang's heart sank, and he glanced at He Qi quietly.
At this moment, Emperor Xuanhe opened his mouth and said, "He Qi, Pei Zhang, the two of you go and lead the Tatar prince into the palace to meet you." ”
He Qi Pei Zhang bowed his hand.
The two of them walked out of the Baohe Hall one after the other - of course, He Qi was in front.
The original commander of the imperial guards beside Emperor Xuanhe happened to be thirty years old, and now he went to serve in the Imperial Forest Army. He Qi is now the commander of the imperial guards and Pei Zhang's top boss.
No matter how unwilling Pei Zhang was, he was helpless.
Emperor Xuanhe deliberately asked He Qi Pei Zhang to show up, of course, he also had a purpose.
The Tatar prince is nineteen years old this year, and he has no idea what the appearance and temperament of this nephew, whom he has never met. There are many outstanding sons and daughters of the Great Chu Dynasty, and they must not be compared to the Tatar prince.
He Qi and Pei Zhang are both outstanding teenagers who are unique in thousands of miles. Let the two of them go, it is a shock and a warning.
Pei Zhang knew it in his heart, straightened his back, and showed the best demeanor.
He Qi is like a sword out of the sheath, exuding an incomparably sharp aura.
The Tatar prince Gathlan, who was waiting outside the Baohe Palace, looked at him quietly.
