Chapter 299: Departure
On the day of the fifth princess's wedding, Shi Qingqian was also caught by the eldest lady and talked for a while, fortunately, she didn't need to participate in the big ceremony as a wedding girl, just keep up when she set off.
"Why! Don't always look absent-minded, you listen to your mother! The eldest lady noticed that Shi Qingqian's thoughts had run far away, and said loudly, "Do you remember what your mother just said?" It's not a good road, but you have to be safe! ”
"Mother...... You know! Shi Qingqian shook the eldest lady's arm helplessly, and said coquettishly, "Today is different from the past, and even the master has been praising the master's current kung fu, not to mention that there are secret guards sent by the emperor to follow, how can something happen?" ”
"Then you have to pay attention to safety, too!" The eldest lady sighed, and helplessly raised her forehead and scolded, "If something happens to you, your mother won't be able to live." ”
Although Yu Banxian said that the second half of Shi Qingqian's life was 'smooth sailing', it is undeniable that Shi Qingqian has also experienced many times of 'surviving in danger', fortunately she has a good life, and fortunately she is clever, otherwise she would not have survived at all.
It is precisely because of this that the eldest lady is particularly uneasy.
It was said that it was auspicious, and the blessing official waiting outside the door urged again and again, and Shi Qingqian patted his chest again and again to assure him that he could escape under the nagging of the eldest lady.
"Miss! Please be careful......"
She walked to the door, and Xue Ying chased her out again, and said with teary eyes.
"Don't worry, Ying'er, it's not like I'm not coming back." Shi Qingqian sighed and patted her head helplessly. "Go back quickly, you and Xiaolian will have a holiday this time, you can rest and rest!"
It's a pity that the bridal girl can't carry the suitability, but Shi Qingqian thinks it's okay, if something really happens, according to Xue Ying's temper, he will definitely be the first to rush to the front.
Compared with the people around him who were injured, Shi Qingqian would rather let himself be injured.
Shi Qingqian tidied up the clothes on his body. She wore a red dress sent from the palace, embroidered with peacock feathers and lotus on her shoulders, a night pearl inlaid around her waist, two phoenixes embroidered with gold thread on her belt, and a pattern of night pearls on her open mouth. She wore a big dark red cloak with a peacock feather collar on her body, and if she didn't have any hair ornaments on her head, it really made people think that she was married today.
When she first got this dress, she thought it was too gorgeous, and when she asked, she realized that this was originally one of the wedding dresses chosen for the five princesses. It's just that I chose a more luxurious outfit later, and this dress is overshadowed by comparison.
But the fifth princess still liked it very much, so she simply took it for Shi Qingqian to wear. Shi Qingqian couldn't refuse, so he could only put it on his scalp.
When Shi Qingqian's carriage arrived on the official road, it happened to be when the fifth princess was about to get into the car, she leaned out, and the fifth princess also turned her head tacitly.
She cried when she saw the makeup of the fifth princess, but she still showed a relieved smile to herself.
Yes, except for a guy like Shi Shuning who only wants to get married as soon as possible, which daughter won't cry when she gets married? Especially for a princess like the fifth princess, this buckle is a farewell to her homeland.
Shi Qingqian's carriage followed behind the carriage of the fifth princess and slowly drove out of the capital from the official road. The huge procession made the whole street red. From a distance, you can only see a red dragon-like winding ribbon through the market, moving out unhurriedly.
Shi Qingqian sat alone in the carriage, he was really bored, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep. Due to the shaking of the carriage and horse, she couldn't sleep at all, and when she woke up and fell asleep, it was night in a blink of an eye.
She came to her senses and asked, only to know that she had arrived at the inn.
After following the people to move in, before Shi Qingqian could sit down, he was called over by the slave maid beside the fifth princess.
"Sister!"
As soon as she entered the door, the fifth princess pounced, and the hollow golden hair ornament she was wearing on her head could weigh five catties.
"Fifth princess, it's been a day of traveling, you can take off your headdress and sleep well......" Shi Qingqian helped the fifth princess to sit down, "If you want me to say, there are still many days to go anyway, why don't you bring it at all, and you can bring it when we get to the boundary of Dongwu, otherwise it will be so uncomfortable to carry such a heavy thing all the way?" ”
"You think I don't want to......" The fifth princess gagged and asked the maid to help take off her hair ornaments, complaining, "But according to the etiquette system, doing so will be against the gods...... I'd better take it with me. ”
Shi Qingqian shrugged her shoulders, although she didn't believe in any gods, the fifth princess still had this belief, so she had to give up, "Okay, then I'll help you unload it, you can rest tonight." Now we are still in Yu Kingdom, and after leaving the scope of Yu Country in three days, and going to the territory of the nomads, there will be no city passes, and we can only sleep in wool tents at that time, five princesses, you have to be mentally prepared. ”
"What do I have to prepare," the fifth princess smiled bitterly and took Shi Qingqian's hand, "I, when I think of so many people suffering with me, I feel that no matter how difficult this road is, I can persevere, who made me a princess?" So many people are on this journey because of me......"
Hearing her say this, Shi Qingqian was relieved. In fact, this road is not afraid of dangers and difficulties, what I am afraid of is that the fifth princess's heart is uncertain, as long as she is willing to move forward firmly, as if everything is not a problem.
As she spoke, the maidservant had already removed all the things on the head of the fifth princess, Shi Qingqian gently pinched her palm, and said with a smile: "Then in this case, I won't disturb you to rest, you freshen up and go to bed quickly, there will be a longer way tomorrow." ”
After speaking, Shi Qingqian paused, then remembered something, and took out a sachet from his arms, "By the way, if you put this next to your pillow, you can calm your mind and calm your mind, and you won't be afraid of not falling asleep." ”
The fifth princess looked at the sachet and was so moved that her eyes were moist, what good things had she never seen? But he still took the little sachet as if it was a baby, "Sister, I'm glad I have you with me, otherwise I really won't be able to hold on......"
"You can, you're the strongest woman I've ever seen!" Shi Qingqian hugged her, and after speaking, he turned around and left.
The road to harmony is long, Shi Qingqian really experienced it once, in order to understand why the deeds of Princess Wencheng have been sung by future generations for thousands of years, she looked at the endless loneliness on the face of the fifth princess from the crack in the door, and seemed to be able to empathize with it suddenly, a woman, carrying the harmony and friendship of the two countries, carrying the common people of the world, anyone, will not feel tired?
It's a pity that not everything in the world can be stopped when you feel tired......
