Chapter 580: A Dream of Nan Ke (Part II)
The harmony between the Great Fan Dynasty and Miao Jiang was huge, and the red makeup and army sent each other for ten miles. However, it was not the princess of the dynasty who was married, but the daughter of the martial arts alliance leader Mu Jingwen, who was only twelve years old.
Miao Jiang has always been the strongest force on the border, and it is also the one who provoked the most wars and eyed the Great Fan Dynasty for a long time.
It is precisely because of this that Mu Jingwen, who has blocked the war in Miaojiang at the border for many years, will be deeply loved by the people. Now the daughter of the alliance leader is married to Miao Jiang, quelling the war and bringing about a peace covenant, which makes the people even more grateful.
Miao Jiang's dowry and welcoming team are also very spectacular, which is enough to see the sincerity of King Miao. In order to show goodwill, today's saint also specially named the daughter of the alliance leader as the county lord with a different surname, and sent 2,000 royal troops to send his relatives to the border.
This political marriage is probably the grandest event in the Great Fan Dynasty in the past hundred years.
Miao Jiang was cold and humid, and as soon as he entered the border area, Mu Shi felt the change in the environment. Sitting in a wedding sedan chair pulled by eight horses, she wore a black wedding dress, embroidered with a phoenix totem with red and gold threads, which was very luxurious and noble. The Great Fan Dynasty is good for black, and the clothes for grand festivals such as weddings and festivals are also mostly black.
Fortunately, Mu Shi has insisted on practicing martial arts for many years, and his body has grown much faster than his peers, and he has the body of a flower girl at the age of twelve, and he can support this complicated wedding dress.
It's just that I've been stuck here for so many days and hurrying, which is really difficult for the joyful Mu Shi. Seeing that he was about to enter Miaojiang, Mu Shi couldn't help but open the curtain of the sedan chair and look out.
Immediately, a sharp-eyed maid came over and whispered, "Does the county lord have any orders?" ”
"Uh...... It's nothing, I just want to breathe. Mu Shi had a headache, and now she was guarded twenty-four hours a day, and then a bunch of maids came out of the hula to ask questions, and she couldn't wait to go to the toilet to solve it for her, for fear that she would run away.
This feeling of being watched made Mu Shi roll her eyes in disdain at first, if she really wanted to run, the people here really wouldn't necessarily find out.
"County Lord, are you a bride, or better to show your head less." The maid persuaded bitterly.
"There are no people on the official roads in this wilderness, so what's the big problem for me to breathe." Mu Shi didn't mean to retract at all, and leaned on the window with his head full of pearls, shaking with the slight bump of the carriage, "Do you want to suffocate me?" ”
"Okay, but don't stay too long, it's not good to be seen." The maid reluctantly compromised, still uneasy.
"Got it, got it." Mu Shi only felt that there were mosquitoes flying in his ears, and he was noisy, and waved his hand to signal the other party to retreat. The maid sighed softly, saluted slightly, and turned back to her carriage.
Mu Shi pulled the tassel on his forehead to his ear, feeling the wind blowing on his face as the carriage moved forward, moist and fresh, mixed with the fragrance of the earth, but it was very similar to Jiangnan, which made Mu Shi feel a little intimate.
When he thought of Jiangnan, Mu Shi couldn't help but think of the only relative and friend in this life, that day when he saw his father in the palace with the emperor, he was already too weak to look good, and he relied on the precious medicinal materials of the treasury to hang his life.
The dark wounds on his body had consumed most of his life, and the man who was only over forty years old was already graying his temples, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were getting deeper and deeper. The sunken black eye sockets and the pale skin covered with green tendons made me feel angina pectoris.
In the first life, Mu had no parents and no relatives; In the second life, I didn't experience much family affection. Although Mu Jingwen was busy, he gave her real fatherly love, as well as the short two-year companionship of her deceased mother.
Mu Shi is grateful to them and truly loves them. Even though Mu Jingwen always blamed himself for not being a good father, Mu Shi had no complaints. She is only deeply proud to have this father.
Mu Shi watched Mu Jingwen go from the high-spirited martial arts alliance leader to the frail old man who is dying today, and her parents are affected by her body, she feels that it is time to do something.
Mu Shi clenched her left hand, and the foreign body in her palm made her feel a little painful. She was a first-time bride, but she was a bride with fatal injuries all over her body. I guess this is the only one.
Mu Shi couldn't help but light a piece of wax to the husband who had no chance, if he knew that he would lead the wolf into the hole, I don't know how the powerful Miao King would feel.
Mu Shi looked at the border town that was getting closer and closer, and the light of expectation in his eyes became brighter and brighter......
The handover of the wedding ceremony went smoothly, perhaps because the Great Fan Dynasty and Miao Jiang had fought for so many years, and the people and the army had long been tired of the war.
The leader of the contact was Miao Jiang's general, and he was also Mu Jingwen's lifelong opponent. Mu Shi opened the curtain and looked at the famous golden armor general, the powerful aura with three meters was really not covered.
It is said that this general is as good at palm skills as Mu Jingwen, and the fight is intractable, more like a relationship between enemies and friends. From the fact that he also nodded to Mu Shi, it can be seen that Mu Jingwen's relationship with him may not be as bad as rumored. If it weren't for the difference in position, maybe they would be confidants.
Mu Shi guessed like this, bowed slightly to General Miao Jiang, lowered the curtain and returned to the carriage.
The carriage drove again, and the congratulations of the people and the family sending team came from behind him, which was genuine, containing gratitude and blessings to Mu Shi.
Mu Shi was shocked by this neat and earth-shattering sound of congratulation, and grabbed the corner of his clothes and fell silent. If that Miao King is really sincere and wants to coexist peacefully, will her move cause war again?
Was she really right to do that? Mu Shi was a little confused.
It is said that this Miao King is lenient and strict, and he has made Miao Jiang happy and surrendered after three years on the throne, and has solved the problem of royal turmoil that Miao Jiang has "inherited" for many years.
But this may be a coincidence, because Miao Jiang, who has had many sons and grandchildren in the past generations, is the only Miao prince in his generation. There are a lot of his uncles, but unfortunately they either died of internal strife or were killed by him, and the remaining Miao prince still loves him very much.
Such a good Miao King, did he really kill him out of jealousy?
Mu Shi understands the jealousy and thoughts of the Great Fan Dynasty, now that the Miao Jiang royal family is empty, as long as the new Miao King dies, Miao Jiang will fall into the embarrassing situation of the dragons without a leader, and the internal strife will definitely not be avoided.
But if you can't avoid it, you will be ruined again. It is always the common people who suffer the most in war.
Mu Shi sighed, and then was stunned, when did he start caring about these things? This shouldn't be her character at all.
Mu Shi pressed her eyebrows, and when she thought of this, she faintly felt a little numb, what the hell was going on, what did she forget?
After Mu Shi fell into the recollection of hard work, the wedding convoy also entered the royal city of Miaojiang - Ancient Phoenix City.
What Mu Shi didn't expect was that King Miao personally rode a horse and led the army to greet him at the gate of the city, and the sound of "Greeting the Princess" sounded, pulling Mu Shi back from his bitter memories.
"Your Majesty, the princess has been brought." General Miao Jiang's fierce male voice could not be concealed even in this tidal wave of welcome.
"Thank you for your hard work." The voice was low and mellow, full of masculine magnetic charm, and brought a calming magic, which silenced all the people and soldiers who were originally excitedly shouting. If you want to describe it, it is like gurgling water across the heart, like the notes of a cello flowing through the tip of the heart.
Mu Shi's heart was also trembling by King Miao's voice, not because it sounded good, but because of the inexplicable throbbing. Mu Shi felt that her heartbeat had obviously missed a beat, and she sat in the carriage for a while, and the urge to rush out to see King Miao's face became stronger and stronger.
But after all, reason overrode the impulse, and Mu Shi slowly relaxed his body, and his eyes showed confusion.
Why, this sound makes her heart pause, it makes her throb, it makes her feel so intense. She seemed to have heard it somewhere, and she seemed to be familiar with the voice.
The carriage pulled up again and headed towards the Miaojiang Palace.
Along the way, the lively sound kept sounding, even with the quality of this wedding car, it couldn't stop the excitement. There are also many children running behind the wedding car, wanting to see the true face of the princess.
It can be seen that this marriage contract is a grand festival for Miao Jiang.
Mu Shi couldn't help it after all, and quietly opened the corner of the curtain to watch, and the child after the remarriage car immediately screamed in surprise.
"I saw the Princess's eyes!"
"What beautiful eyes! I said that the princess must be a great beauty! ”
"But just saw a pair of eyes, how can you be so sure!"
"Let me see, let me see!"
The children's arguments continued, Mu Shiwan smiled, and shook his finger at the children chasing the wedding car, they were stunned, and then stopped obediently.
The folk customs here are very simple, which is very different from Mu Shi's imagination.
After thinking about it, Mu Shi opened the curtain a little again, poked out his head a little and looked ahead, wanting to see the appearance of King Miao. But King Miao was at the front, followed by such a large guard of honor, which completely blocked Mu Shi's sight.
In the gap, Mu Shi could only vaguely see an elegant and noble figure, wearing a wedding dress of the same color as hers, and a snow-white fur coat, looking very rich.
Mu Shi noticed that Miao Jiang liked to wear fluffy clothes, although Mu Shi knew that it was due to the climate, he still thought it looked quite cute.
Just as Mu Shi was looking at the customs of Miao Jiang, King Miao suddenly glanced back.
The face hidden in the crowd was still not clear, but those dark red eyes made Mu Shi's heart skip a beat, and he hurriedly lowered the curtains and pressed his beating heart.
For some reason, there was a burning sensation from the middle finger of his left hand, which was so hot that Mu Shi frowned slightly. Mu Shi subconsciously raised his left hand to check, but found that there was nothing wrong with the delicate-skinned hand.
However, the burning sensation really exists, not a momentary hallucination of Mu Shi.
Why......
