Chapter 20: The Book Pavilion Steals Incense
Zhu Dong's guess was right, we spent the New Year in Donghu, and there was still no news from the Southern Wei side until the end of the year. Our group was abandoned here.
Princess Jinglu's temper is getting worse and worse, and Zhu Dong and I are always careful when we wait, that is, Mo Yi is waiting outside, and Zhu Dong and I are by her side to take care of her.
The day he found Guang Gaping's body was Xiao Nian, under a tiger's cypress tree, he was lying under the fallen leaves, the fallen leaves were still green and verdant, he covered some leaves, and the corners of his bleeding mouth were smiling, and he died not very sadly. His body is in our yard.
We talked about him on the grassland, and Zhu Dong, like me, thought the pile of feather duster-like hair on his head was particularly ridiculous. At this point he had a hat on his body, which was over his stomach, and I guess he could have worn it to cover the tufts of hair.
Boduange said that he was Mohedo's nephew, a well-known falcon trainer in the Lost Grassland, and that no eagle could survive his taming.
Such a master of eagle training died in a small mansion in Liangzhou, here is not a loss of Wei, he violated the rules and left the grassland, I am thinking, what lured him to leave his hometown, to the territory of the Donghu people, to die in a foreign land, how unfortunate.
Zhu Dong covered his nose with a silk handkerchief, and asked a few little guys to remove his body as soon as possible, the little guy carried him, he clenched his fists, I saw the golden light looming, he had something in his hand, but my courage was not enough to support me to break his hand and take a look.
I saw that he was missing a large piece of flesh and skin behind him, as if he had been peeled alive, and the whole back skin was torn off alive, I was scared, the men on the grassland like to tattoo tigers, leopards, eagles and birds on their bodies, I have seen them wrestling by the fire, the men took off their shirts, and the beasts and birds of various colors were tattooed on their backs, which were lifelike in the light of the flames, and he tried his fists and feet with Paibatu next to Boduang, and I saw a one-eyed golden eagle on his back. Now it seems that someone has ripped the golden eagle from his back.
Visitors come and go in front of the house, today is the day of purchasing New Year's goods, adults and children go out together, the year of the Donghu people and the year of the Southern Wei people are the same, I think the year of the world is the same lively. It's just that we are a group of strangers, but at the end of the year, we can't be happy, the situation between Donghu and Southern Wei is tense, Princess Jinglu and we travel under the noses of Donghu people, if it weren't for the protection of Boduange and Yushi Chengge, we would have been caught by King Donghu a long time ago.
At first, I thought that the Donghu people would not move us for the sake of the marriage between the Southern Wei and the Northern Qi, but now that the Southern Wei and Northern Qi have not sent anyone to respond, we dare not act rashly for a while.
Boduange and the rain master came to our house in the evening.
I heard the maid outside laughing and saying, "Thirteen kings, fifteen kings, Wanji." ”
At the end of the year, the maids all put auspicious words on their lips.
The rain master smiled and said, "There is a reward." ”
I'm afraid that I heard that someone died in our house, so I hurried here.
Snow fell on the road, and although the snow was heavy, it did not fall for half an hour, and the heat on the ground dried up in a few moments.
Boduange patted the snow foam on his body, and the soles of his boots were full of mud, and I stopped him and didn't let him into the house, "Where did this step on the mud?" ”
He threw me the snow-covered hat on his head, and I felt that the brim was still warm, and threw it on the table, and pulled him into the hallway, "You just stomp your feet here before you enter the house." ”
He chuckled under his breath, and really wiped the mud off his feet, "How many days have you been going out to play?" ”
He put his arm on my shoulders and rubbed the mud at his feet as he talked to me.
"I didn't go out for half a day before I was called back by Sister Yi."
"Oh?"
"Your Highness has been in poor health lately, and she wants to talk to me, and when she can't see anyone, she is angry with her and Dong'er."
"I found the notebook you asked me to find for you some time ago, and I'll give it to you when I'm done."
I was overjoyed, "Where?" ”
I thought he had forgotten about what I asked him about a month ago, but today he brought it to me, and I knew he was in good hands.
"Here you go in a moment."
I remembered that incident, "Hikari Agaping, you know about him, don't you?" ”
There are eyes inside and outside the courtyard, that is, Mo Yi said it well, even the cracks in the walls are eyeballs, not anyone else, they are the eyeliner of these two bastards, I don't know what they do with so many people staring at us every day.
"yes, I know." He didn't lift his head.
"Do you know who killed him?"
"Don't ask, little ones."
"We in the Southern Wei Dynasty are based on the age of the year, and you in the East Hu are according to the virtual age, so I am fifteen years old, not a child." I argued.
"Children get homesick, will you?" He asked me.
I couldn't slap myself in the face, "Naturally I don't want to, I wish my family didn't care about me." ”
I think that my brother and mother, when I think of it, I can't help but hold my chin and look in the direction of home, and sometimes I think about them when I eat, thinking, at this time my brother should go down, at this time my mother should turn off the lights and sleep peacefully, and I think that they must miss me very much.
"Really?"
I didn't hesitate, "Of course." ”
"Originally, in February of next year, I was going to take you to meet someone."
"Who?"
"Your brother."
I tugged at his sleeve, "Really? Isn't it! ”
"Seeing that you don't want to go home, just give up, and I won't help arrange it." He said.
"No! No way! Yes...... No, I ...... I just lied to people...... I miss home...... "I grabbed his arm and didn't let him go."
He ignored my entanglement and walked forward on his own, "You don't want to, I won't deliberately please people anyway." ”
"I was wrong, I was wrong...... "I stood in front of him, "I lied, I want to see my brother, do you really have a way to arrange it?" Will my brother really come to Donghu? ”
He didn't tease me anymore, "I said that there is a way, and there is a way, and I am not like you, who deceives people every day." ”
I walked and defended with him: "I don't lie to people every day, I only lie to you......"
"My brother will come in February?"
"Is he tall or thin?"
"What about my mother? My mother is coming too? ”
I was stupid, shook my head and said to myself, "It's impossible for my mother to leave the palace." ”
"Then he wrote to you, didn't he?"
"Show me the letter."
"Boduang, don't go so fast."
"Don't ignore me......"
He didn't speak, so I followed him.
When I thought of this while eating, he was asking me to divert my attention from Guang Agaping, Bo Duange didn't want me to participate, he must know the inside story, or even Ji Mo Yi knew, but I didn't know, the moment the body was found, Ji Mo Yi didn't have a look of surprise on his face, I did suspect for a moment that she made a move, but there had to be a reason for killing, and the two of them didn't even talk more than five sentences.
I was stunned with the bowl, and Zhu Dong filled me with a mushroom, "What do you think, don't eat yet?" ”
I came back to my senses, several people at the table were staring at me, quite embarrassed to move the stool forward, but my foot stepped on the person under the table, I raised my head, just in time to meet the eyes of the rain master Chengge, he looked at me slightly sideways, I withdrew my foot, and said "sorry" silently.
He must have been able to see the shape of my mouth, but he stepped on it again, and I was annoyed, and stepped back on it, and he stepped it back......
"Arrogance!" Your Highness called me.
I stepped on him and was stunned for a moment, "Huh? ”
"Eat." His Highness sighed.
"Oh." I glared back at him viciously.
