Chapter 9: Memories of Him Alone
Jingyu hurriedly chased after her, jumped out of the window, and there was an open space behind her, Guan Duyuan was waiting for Jingyu in front, and Jingyu quickly followed.
"General, how do you stop?"
Guan Duyuan paused for a moment, "Jingyu, I...".
"How?" Jingyu rarely saw Guan Duyuan like this now, and asked uneasily.
"I ......"
"Then, it's the same as before, don't go in." Jingyu wanted to pat Guan Duyuan on the shoulder to show encouragement, but she still had some scruples about her identity.
Guan Duyuan adjusted his breathing, totoed a little, jumped up, flew onto the roof in front of him, and landed steadily, very light and light, which shows that he has martial arts.
Jingyu toed a little, her feet off the ground, jumped slightly, and also flew up to the roof, landing gently beside Guan Duyuan.
The two squatted down, skillfully uncovering a piece of rubble, and Guan Duyuan couldn't wait to lean over and look at the room cautiously.
Shu He was lying on the bed, his face was as pale as paper, his lips were chapped, and he was much thinner than the last time he came to see it.
He Huan lay on the side of the bed, quietly accompanying her, she seemed to be still unconscious, so quiet, quiet made him afraid. This is not her, she shouldn't be like this, I remember the first time I saw her, what a lively and playful girl she was......
Kwan Duyuan's thoughts flew far away, back to the first time he saw her.
That year, the emperor issued a holy decree and issued an order, asking "General Zhenyuan" Guan Zhen to go to Beiwan for a secret visit.
The emperor's mind is revealed, he wants to expand the territory. On the battlefield, not only the martial arts and combat skills of the generals and soldiers are high, but also the war horses are also quite high.
If you find a thousand good horses, then the battle will be twice the result with half the effort.
Guan Zhen is a loyal general, and he will fulfill orders when he gives them, and he does not consider whether this matter is right or wrong. Besides, as long as the emperor thinks it is right, it must be right, and no one dares to disobey. Disobey the holy decree and be punished.
Guan Duyuan was stalking and wanted to follow, but Guan Zhen couldn't, so he had to take Guan Duyuan with him, and they went to Beiwan together.
The road is long, and it takes more than a month to reach the border of Beiwan.
It is a completely different world from the Great Plains, the vast Gobi, there are rows of poplars in the distance, in this vast world, it is so poetic and picturesque. It was a day of tranquility, primitive, free, mysterious.
Guan Duyuan was fascinated by the scene in front of him, and couldn't help but spur the horse to gallop, Guan Zhen laughed behind him, and then spurred the horse and followed him.
The horse's hooves are flying, the whole person is like flying in the wind, blending together with the wind, and integrating into the vast world with the vast world, at that moment, you don't need to know who you are, you don't care where you are, you just need to integrate into the sky, the earth, the wind and the sand......
I don't know how long I ran wildly, the vast yellow sand had already been left behind, and a grassland appeared in front of me, the vast blue color, and a clear river was like a ribbon, winding down on the green grass. In the distance, flocks of sheep and horses were grazing comfortably, and the white sheep were like white sand on a green disk.
The grass and blue sky, the breeze and green water, the sheep are fat and the horses are strong, and the songs are loud.
What a beautiful painting this is, I can't bear to disturb, I don't want to destroy it, Guan Duyuan pulled the reins of the horse, jumped slightly, turned over, he tied the horse to a poplar tree, and lay on the grass to watch the blue sky.
After several days of running, the body was already exhausted, and the horse was also tired and hungry, so he simply rested.
Guan Duyuan went to the river to wash his face, drank the water in a big gulp, and when he was full, he filled the water bladder again, brought it back, and handed it to his father, Guan Zhen. Guan Zhen took the dry food in his bag and beckoned his companions to eat.
The accompanying people, about Duyuan, Guan Zhen and his entourage, and an inner attendant, was arranged by the emperor, and the inner attendant was used to life in the palace, and it was very hard to follow along the way.
There wasn't much dry food, and barely anyone had a little to share, so I chewed it with water, and soon filled my stomach.
Guan Duyuan returned to the poplar of the bolted horse, lay down, crossed Erlang's legs, looked at the blue sky, bathed in the breeze, because it was so comfortable, he soon fell asleep.
Guan Zhen instructed the others to rest as well, and the group had been running around for several days, and they were already exhausted, and now they were full of food and drink, and they were full of spirits, and then went to the horse village and market outside the city of Beiwan Wang, and secretly checked the situation of the good horses.
When they arrived at the market, Guan Zhen found a shop and stayed overnight first, while the other people were tired and needed to rest. Guan Duyuan couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, so he went for a walk on the street alone.
The street outside Wangcheng is very lively, and after walking a distance, you will arrive at Liangshi, which is a lively and interesting place. Although it is not as bustling as Yeongseon Street outside the Ohara Imperial Castle, there are many shops and shops in this good city, and there are all kinds of strange knick-knacks.
The women here are very characterful, with long boots and mid-length skirts, unlike the women of Ohara, where the long landing group covers the three-inch golden lotus tightly. The women here all wear braids, and there are not so many hairpins rings, which look much cleaner and lively.
They walk on the street generously, they don't need to cover their heads and faces, they don't bow their heads and are shy, they are all beautiful and lively. Guan Duyuan thought to himself, the women here should be very happy.
Walking and walking, I saw a square room, it was a wine shop, and when I looked up, the words "street and alley restaurant" came into view. There is wine to drink, think about it, he feels that he has not drunk wine for a long time, buy it three altars and five altars, you must drink enough.
Guan Duyuan stepped into the wine shop, walked in in a dashing manner, and Xiao Er came over and asked, "Guest officer, how many?" ”
Guan Duyuan raised a finger, "One, please upstairs, the downstairs is full." He looked around, and it was empty.
Guan Duyuan followed Xiao Er up to the second floor and found a window seat to sit down, this position is very good, you can see the people coming and going on the street, and you can also see the shops on the opposite street.
He asked for a jar of wine, two taels of beef, and a person leisurely ate meat and drank wine, satisfying himself, this is a comfortable day that he has not enjoyed for a long time.
This wine smells very good, and when you take a sip, it is very mellow. Mellow and delicious, the entrance into the dantian, the hot feeling travels all over the body, it feels very comfortable, and it makes people very relaxed.
While he was enjoying the wine, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the street, the sound of horses' hooves was thick and sonorous, and he had never heard such a sound of horses' hooves in Ohara, no, it was a sound of horses' hooves that he had never heard so far.
"Drive! Drive! Drive! ”
It was a woman's voice, and the sound of whipping the wind, and she couldn't hold back her curiosity, Guan Duyuan opened the window, poked her head out, and looked in the direction where the horse's hooves came from.
A nimble white horse, galloping in, what a good horse! On horseback is a young woman, the goose yellow dress flies on the horseback, and you can see the corner of the middle white trousers, the light yellow veil is blown tightly against the cheeks, although the facial features can not be seen clearly, from the overall outline, it is a dexterous beautiful woman, three thousand green silk in the wind messy, messy very beautiful.
Like the wind, it flashed by, leaving a cloud of dust and smoke, and a hazy back, which was free and easy, beautiful, and pretty.
At this time, Xiao Er sent broad beans up, "Guest officer, the store will send a plate of broad beans for free, please use it slowly." ”
Guan Duyuan said: "Thank you! Thanks a lot! ”
The little second put down the broad beans and was about to leave, Guan Duyuan couldn't help but inquire about the news, he first took out a tael of silver and stuffed it to Xiao Er, and then asked, "What did you just pass by?" ”
Xiao Er accepted the money, he was very happy, and his face was smiling, "The guest officer is from out of town!" Guan Duyuan nodded.
"That's the youngest daughter of our Beiwan King, who likes to ride horses, and the whole good city knows that she is good at riding."
Guan Duyuan couldn't figure it out, a king's daughter, a princess, appeared in front of the public like this? Like those princes in Ohara, they can't rashly appear on the streets, let alone princesses, so they can only stay in their boudoirs.
"You mean the youngest daughter of King Beiwan? That's the princess too, what's the matter..."
"Our princess is different from those princes and nobles. Since she was a child, she has followed her grandmother, and her grandmother cherishes her, so ah, she is bold, lively and cheerful, and eclectic. She, she has been outside for the past three days, and she has done a lot of good things, and she is also prone to trouble, which makes our King of Beiwan also have a headache. ”
"Then this princess just ran so fast, where is she going?"
"The princess lives most of her life with her grandmother, and this is to go to the Herenda tribe outside the border to find her grandmother and grandfather!"
Guan Duyuan thanked Xiao Er, Xiao Er accepted the money, and left satisfied.
Guan Duyuan went downstairs, paid for the drink, stepped on the horse, and ran in the direction where the back had just disappeared.
Running all the way, after a short time, he arrived at a pass, Guan Duyuan looked up at the name of the pass, and the three words "Shensha Pass" were prominently displayed there.
He tightened the reins and slowed the horse, and then he remembered what he had thought about his reckless gallop all the way.
He looked around, and there were only soldiers standing guard at the pass, and no one else. He thought he was really funny, why did he come here, see her? I don't know each other, why do you want to see it? It's funny that I didn't see a shadow.
Guan Duyuan turned over and dismounted, led the horse and walked slowly, he had arrived here, so he simply walked and sobered up.
He led the horse forward, and kept walking, maybe for a long time, when suddenly he heard the sound of the horse's hooves, a familiar sound, and his heart began to beat wildly, and he panicked.
"Hey!"
He turned to her.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, a white horse and a woman, wearing a veil, a light goose yellow coat, white medium boots, a strand of green silk and a braid hanging down from her chest. Heroic on horseback, condescending, looking at him from a short distance.
At a glance, he had fallen.
"Hey, hello!"
He tried his best to hide his panic, but the more he disguised it, the more panicked he became, he didn't know what to say, he just bowed his head and returned the salute.
"Why are you so strange, why don't you ride a horse when you have it?"
She rolled over and dismounted, and with a deft movement, she walked towards him.
One step, two steps......
It was coming from his heart, and his heart was beating out of beat.
"Talking to you, why don't you answer me, could it be that you are dumb?"
He shook his head, clasped his hands into fists, bowed his head, and finally only said three words, "It's rude!" ”
She laughed, "I thought you were dumb when you could talk!" ”
He smiled shyly, smiling without saying a word.
She tore off her veil and looked at him, "What an interesting person!" ”
The person in front of him, with a sloppy posture, picturesque eyebrows, black shining eyes as if talking, a cherry mouth, thin lips and charming, a clear jawline is beautiful, a sexy collarbone is high and promising, and three thousand green silks float in the evening breeze......
He's drunk!
