Chapter 4: Truth 03
At night on the grassland, the cold wind howled, and the felt of the tent rose and fell with the wind. Leaning against the warm glow of the tent, a little Mongolian boy wearing a delicate tiger-headed felt hat is singing a song on the grassland, his young face is full of smiles, and he dances to the rhythm of his own singing. On the side were two good-looking women beating to the rhythm of the children's ballad, one in his early thirties, with a delicate face and a gentle expression, and at first glance it was clear that he had not grown up on the grassland.
Another little girl was seventeen years old, with gauze wrapped around her shoulders, and it was the age when she bloomed like a flower. Her eyes were so beautiful that they shone like stars in the sky.
There are two camphor wood chests beside him, which contain a lot of silk jewelry in the style of the Han family, as well as tea books and children's toys. The little boy happily finished singing a song, and the little girl held him in her arms and couldn't help kissing his cute little face. The woman looked at these objects from the Central Plains, and a warm current crossed her heart, and she was infinitely happy.
She looked at her son's felt hat again, and the eyes of the little tiger on it were big, round, lifelike, and cute. The stitches of the tiger's eyes were fine and dense, and she recognized the familiar needlework as the queen mother.
"Auntie, Eqi taught me a song, and I'll sing it to you!" The little boy said proudly to the little girl.
"Come, what song is Hada going to sing?" The little girl asked dotingly.
"The thread in the mother's hand, the wanderer's shirt, is densely sewn before leaving, and I am afraid that I will return late. Whoever says an inch is careless, and he will be rewarded with three springs! ”
The sound of the little boy's milk making the woman sigh in her heart, when will the daughter see you......
She stroked the child's head and said, "Look, Grandma gave you a hat." Do you like it or not? ”
Xiao Tong's round head nodded and said, "Eqi, I like it." ”
The little girl looked at the silk in the box, the light and elegant color fainted under the lamp, the light golden light, and the dark lines of the clouds on it loomed, and couldn't help but admire: "The fabric of the Southern Dynasty is so beautiful, no wonder the prince refuses to wear our clothes!" Sister-in-law, these materials must be very beautiful when made of clothes! ”
The woman said in her heart that Xuanqi didn't wear Mongolian clothes for the sake of integrity, not because she was good-looking. But I don't want to ruin the little girl's interest at the moment. Seeing that the little girl couldn't put it down, she said, "Qiqige, you have a choice, just take it." ”
"Thank you, sister-in-law. But these clothes are so soft, let Hada wear them. Dark clouds said.
"He's a boy, he has to dress so fancy, and you are the age when you should be dressed, you must be beautiful in it." After saying that, she picked out another pair of gold bracelets from the jewelry in the box and put them on her wrist. The bracelet is strung with gold beads carved into begonia flowers, which is very chic and suitable for a girl like her to wear.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. You're welcome. Kikige said happily.
The two women looked at the clothes and jewelry, and they talked endlessly. That woman was the eldest daughter of the Queen Mother, Princess Xuantong of Heyi, and the little girl was Princess Qiqige, the sister of Buri Gude.
At this moment, there was a sudden trumpet outside the tent. The trumpet was sounded to welcome the return of Burigude. Xuantong and Kikige stopped talking, took Hada's hand and walked out of the tent.
"Eqige!" The boy threw himself into the arms of Burigood like a gust of wind, and Burigood kissed and kissed the little baby carved in pink and said, "Have you listened to your words?" ”
Xiao Tong nodded and said, "Hada is a man, and he will protect Eqi when he grows up." ”
Břigood smiled knowingly as he looked at the child. But when he saw the cute tiger head hat on his son's head, his gentle eyes gradually became cold. He walked into the tent with the child in his arms, and Xuantong and Kikige followed.
After entering the tent, Burigood saw the two boxes full of treasures from the Southern Dynasty, turned back to Xuantong and said, "Ah Tong, are these things sent by the emperor of the Southern Dynasty?" ”
Xuantong said: "It was sent by my mother." ”
However, Kikige said happily: "You see Hada likes this little hat very much, he wears it so cutely." ”
As soon as Bu Rigude thought that the boiled duck of the emperor of the Southern Dynasty had flown not long ago, not only that, but he also lost one of the generals, Batu died, Wokotai was seriously wounded, and countless cavalry were lost. Now I see my wife and sister intoxicated with exquisite jewelry and clothing, and I am suddenly unhappy. He picked up his son and said, "Hada, my son." These things are beautiful and exquisite, but they are used by our enemies to confuse us. Do you still like it? ”
Little Hada seemed to be confused when he heard this, and he said, "Father Khan, how are Eqi's relatives our enemies? ”
"Your younger brother, that is, your uncle, is the emperor of the Southern Dynasty and is our enemy." Buri Gude said.
"Father Khan, then I don't want these things." So saying, he tore the little tiger's felt hat off his head and threw it into the burning coals, and in a few moments it was reduced to ashes.
Xuantong, who was watching from the sidelines, saw her husband behaving like this, and the person stood dumbfounded like a stump. Qiqige saw her sister-in-law's embarrassed look, and she was stupid and didn't dare to speak.
Back in his tent, Qiqige still had the scene just now in his mind, and said to the maid Wulan: "It's a pity that all the things sent by the Southern Dynasty were burned by my brother's order. Fortunately, my sister-in-law left me a pair of beautiful bracelets before she was here. Then she thought of the young man who was wielding Fang Tian's halberd and was dressed in fresh clothes. After a rain of arrows, she fell off her horse with heavy arrows, and seeing that the iron halberd was about to sink into her chest, the emperor of the Southern Dynasty suddenly retracted his hand. Otherwise, he would have been able to knock the platform off his horse, and later he was also wounded, and then he was picked up by the Southern Korean army. Wokotai still can't get out of bed, and I don't know if the Southern Dynasty emperor's injuries have healed.
Qiqige didn't know that Xuan Nan took back the iron halberd because he was worried about the ice blue, and he was worried about it. She actually had a thought in her heart, this emperor of the Southern Dynasty was not interested in herself. Batu is a brave and unscrupulous man, with a meaty and lustful face, and goosebumps arise in his heart when he thinks about it. The elder brother even wanted to marry himself to Batu, but fortunately, the Han general fell off his horse and died, and now the marriage contract was also nullified. Naturally, my heart is indescribably relaxed and happy!
That night, Burigude stayed beside Xuantong, and recalled over and over again in his mind the process of Bao Zhuo bringing news that the Khitan was going to rebel to Xuan Nan and fled, and he lost a general. Suddenly sat up from the collapse, which startled Xuantong, and she quickly got up and asked, "Great Khan, what's wrong?" ”
Burigood turned his head and saw his wife, whose eyes were full of fear, softly comforted: "Ah Tong, those treasures I burned today will be replenished to you tenfold and hundredfold. Don't you have to contact the Southern Dynasty again in the future......"
Ah Tonghua lost her face and said: "Great Khan, I never dared to inquire about you, and I would not leak the news to the mother country. Today's things were sent by the queen mother a long time ago, and they are all the private property of the queen mother, and they have nothing to do with the emperor of Chu. Great Khan, you have to believe me. ”
Břígood's eyes suddenly became warm: "Of course I believe you. Ah Tong won't hurt me. So saying, he got up with a robe and walked out of the tent.
Xuantong sat on the spot, listening to the thunderous anger of Burigood outside: "Find out Bao Zhuo and cook it for me!"
"Great Khan, Bao Zhuo is gone!"
"Then chase south, you must kill this villain!" Burigood said angrily.
Xuantong couldn't help but shiver and wrapped the blanket tightly.
