Chapter 1: The Return
The spring rain has been raining for three or four days, lingering, wrapped around the clothes, but it can't get wet, giving people a faint sadness.
A gloomy cloud hung over the entire Chang'an City.
What makes people worry is not only the spring rain, but also the tense war in the distance.
Everyone in Beijing seems to be worried, unable to dissolve or move.
Just like this spring rain, it is soft, and there is no trace of weakness.
"It's been months since the war in Jiangcheng, the Duke of Wei is trapped, and the two generations of eleven members of the Li family are trapped in the valley with an army of 200,000, how can this be good?"
The flower boat in Yanhu Lake has long been closed, and the Qinlou Chu Pavilion has not been opened for nearly half a month since the war situation has deteriorated, and even the storyteller under the bridge of the Chu River has also changed his livelihood.
Everyone is worried, if the city of Xinjiang can't be defended, Chang'an can't be protected, and the only way to move the capital is to move south.
The relatives and friends in the south have not been in touch for a long time, and they don't know if they can accept it.
"I heard that the Queen Mother prayed for blessings in the White Horse Temple for more than ten days, and now the entire Kyoto Chang'an has banned Chinese music."
"The eldest princess Xuanci, the old lady of the Wei State Mansion, has been ill for more than half a month, and the imperial doctor has come four or five times. The three ladies in the family were sick and crying, and the eldest daughter-in-law, the Duchess of Wei Guo, would still be holding on, otherwise the entire mansion would not be messed up. ”
"It is also difficult for the eldest princess of the Huiji, and two of the eleven members of the Li family are her sons. Now this old and young, in addition to her, only the third master of the third room is still there, and the rest are women, children and children. is the eldest son, who is less than six years old. ”
"Poor ~"
Everyone hoped that Grandpa Guo's family would return victorious, but no one said this, and they all knew that it was really difficult.
The imperial court is already thinking about it, preparing to choose a princess of the right age to calm the war.
I don't know if this border army will wait to get this paper and the marriage letter?
……
"Princess, the weather is cool, you be careful."
Princess Le'an was stunned, she looked at the gloomy sky outside the window, and her eyes were gray and misty.
"Winter solstice, it's been half a month, Ah Wan hasn't written to me yet, will something happen?"
Looking at the empty eyes of the master, the palace maid covered her mouth and cried.
When she stopped crying, she tightened her cloak for her master, and said with a smile, "How come? How could something happen to a person like the county lord who is so immortal? ”
"Don't think too much about it, the princess will definitely be fine."
"Didn't the county lord promise to come back and teach the princess to dance the sword, she never missed the appointment, the princess is not afraid......"
"Winter Solstice, you go and persuade your father and queen mother~"
"Huh? Princess? ”
"This palace is willing to marry~"
"Princess!"
In the end, the palace maid couldn't cry, stood behind the woman in gorgeous clothes, covered her mouth and cried silently, and knelt on the ground.
And in the palace, there is a flaming red wedding dress.
The luxurious palace seemed to be dead silent, only the cry of the palace maid and the figure still looking into the distance.
……
The foul-smelling stable, Li Xin had been walking in this desolate desert for four or five days, and now she was hungry and thirsty.
It was the nineteenth day she had woken up.
In order to escape the war at the border of the border city, Li Xin was "sold" to the merchant as a slave and went to the enemy capital city along the steepest Gobi.
During the day, she walked in the blazing sand in tattered shoes, painful, stuffy, and weak.
When he arrived in Tiandu City, Li Xin only had one breath left.
Built on an oasis in the desert, Beirong's Tiandu City is the most devout holy city in the surrounding countries.
Although it was not the first time he had seen it, Li Xin was still shocked by this majestic city.
The castle that stretches for dozens of miles, the endless city, and the prosperity of the city is no less than that of Kyoto, which is thousands of miles away.
As night fell, the stables were littered with horses and straw.
And the slaves of the rich merchants lay on the straw.
The night cold in Tiandu City was three points colder than the winter in Kyoto, and although his limbs were already numb under the exposure, Li Xin still felt the bone-chilling cold, and his body trembled involuntarily.
From time to time, there was a woman's soft smile in the room, and the sound of the man drinking vigorously.
Seeing the moon on his head slowly reaching the middle of the sky, Li Xin took out the dagger in his boots, untied the hemp rope tied to his hands and feet with a knife, and disappeared into the darkness.
"County Lord."
In a goldsmith shop on the south side of the city, a dozen secret guards fell to their knees on one knee, and there were three hundred of them in all. These people are Li Xin who came from Emperor Xuan, and all of them are fierce generals with one enemy and one hundred.
Li Xin nodded, and helped up Zhao Ran, the captain who was the leader.
"As planned."
Li Xin looked at the secret guard who had not yet dispersed and frowned, "What else is the matter?" ”
Everyone looked at Zhao Ran, except for Li Xin, the rest of the people in this room were all masked men.
Zhao Ran hesitated, and Li Xin looked at him even more.
Looking at Li Xin's eyes that were as bright as stars, Zhao Ran's face turned red.
"County Lord, if you can return to Da Chen alive, I hope we can meet you on the school grounds."
Li Xin was stunned for a moment, then raised the corners of his mouth instead, and slapped one hand on the shoulder of the man with half of his red face. "Okay, that's a deal."
Unfortunately, this is a promise that is not destined to be fulfilled.
On March 21, Beirong Khan was assassinated at his birthday banquet and became critically ill, and the princes secretly rushed back to Tiandu City.
An unknown dancer is wanted in the entire Tiandu City, and the dancer is wounded in the face by their bravest warrior, the second prince Yalu Jiaye.
Beirong Tian Khan was assassinated, and the princes fought openly and secretly. The battle in Tiandu City was inextricable, and although the troops in Dachen were not withdrawn, they were not approaching.
The struggle for imperial power is imminent, and no prince is willing to sacrifice his troops this time.
Li Xin was camelized back to Dachen by a silver wolf, and the team of 300 people, except for her, had no life.
The situation between Beirong and Da Chen is still tense, as long as the dispute between the royal court subsides and the throne is set, then capturing Da Chen is the best tactic for the new khan to stabilize the people's hearts.
Just when all the frontier warriors were in danger, a girl wearing a mask and riding a silver wolf came from afar in the desert between the lines.
Since then, one man and one wolf have become an indelible myth of Da Chen, opening a new chapter.
