Chapter 33: Empathy

After listening to the words of the concubine, Xiangyang Muran's heart immediately sank to the bottom of the pool.

She covered her chest, only to feel that the air was unbearably hot and unbearable, and she felt an uncomfortable churn in her stomach, and the grievances and fears spread in her body, and finally turned into rolling tears that emerged from her eyes.

Concubine Shi looked very distressed and half-hugged the princess.

"The concubine knows that you are uncomfortable, but there are some words, and it may be more beneficial for you to say them earlier."

"So far, we can only take one step at a time."

Since leaving the customs, this road has been bumpy and bumpy, not as good as the official road of Dayin, and the footsteps of the people in the north are fast, the people in the sedan chair only feel that the sky is dim, and the bile is about to shake out, the mother and son tightly hold their chests, and they are silent and do not speak.

I don't know how long I walked, but the sand and gravel on the ground gradually disappeared, and a piece of green came into view.

"Mother, look!"

Xiangyang pointed to a group of white sheep in the distance.

Fang Cai's gloom and discomfort were swept away, and in just an instant, her wilted eyes became cheerful and excited again.

"It's beautiful!"

"Is this the prairie?"

Seeing her appearance, Concubine Shi was very pleased. This is Yaoguang, a child who grew up beside her, a person who will always smile no matter what difficulties and obstacles she encounters.

"From now on, these are all yours, and you are the princess."

You are the princess......

Looking at the eyes cast at his mother, Xiangyang's heart moved, as if he understood the true meaning of the word "princess".

It's almost evening.

The carriages and horses were still jolting on the road, the sun was setting, and a cool breeze was blowing into the curtains.

"Appeal ......"

With a gesture from the man, the carriage stopped.

When the two looked through the tassels, the scimitar men escorting around the wedding sedan all disappeared, leaving only six maidservants from the north, who behaved very respectfully.

Prince Zuo beat the horse to the delicate, and his voice sounded modest and polite.

"The men in the north are vulgar, and I hope that the princess will not see the outside, my king has been accustomed to the culture of Da Yin for a long time, and he is a genuine hero and hero, and he is extraordinary."

He actually heard it!

At such a distance, her voice was as weak as a gnat, and he actually ...... Listen to their conversation clearly!

In addition to being frightened, Xiangyang's little face turned red.

At the critical moment, it was the mother concubine who came forward to play a round.

"The prince is too worried, the princess just said it casually, and has no other intentions, thank you for taking such careful care."

"It's okay, the princess is fine."

After speaking, he continued to rein in his horse and walked forward, his appearance seemed elegant, but his posture was very sassy.

The tassels in the sedan car are still shaking, and after a while, a large area of white emerges from the front side, as if it is connected with the clouds, frozen in the huge grassland, majestic and dazzling and beautiful. When the sedan chair slowly approached, it was realized that it was countless tents.

The voices around him gradually increased.

When passing through the white tent, Xiangyang lowered the curtain, only to feel the sedan car surrounding, and the voices in his ears were boiling, and he couldn't help but feel panicked.

"The Mother ......"

"Yao'er is not afraid, the mother concubine is here."

The cheers of the crowd came and went, crowding around the welcoming procession, and the stars marched forward like the moon.

Half an hour later, the sedan chair finally stopped.

There was silence around me, as if everything I had just heard was an illusion in my ears.

The mother and son were suspicious, and Prince Zuo's voice came in faintly from outside the curtain.

"There is a tooth tent ahead, please Princess Xiangyang get off the sedan chair and enter the tent to marry my king."

Pipa has been accompanying in front of the car, although it has been tiring all day, but at this moment she is very conscious, and without waiting for the servant girl from the north to step forward, she took the initiative to lift the curtain in front of the sedan chair, and whispered through the red tassels:

"Princess, princess, slave and maid help you out of the car."

Concubine Shi held Xiangyang in her own hands and slowly walked out of the red wedding girl.

The tassels are swaying, and the pearls are ringing.

At first sight, a breath of fresh air penetrated into the nostrils, and the whole body felt a kind of liberation from the cage.

Look around, the tents in front of you are clustered, and the one in front of you is extremely unique, its body is inlaid with gold edges, and the top of the upper end is decorated with colorful auspicious clouds, complex and beautiful, all depicted with colored pen vermilion, sitting alone on the top, majestic and breathtaking.

And on the round about the golden horde there was a circle of small tents, all of the same shape.

Watching everyone walk down from the sedan chair, everyone watched, but no one avoided it, and they all showed curious and excited eyes.

"My king has been waiting in the tent for a long time, so please come with me into the tent."

His tone was calm and calm, and there was no trace of emotion in sight.

Concubine Shi said softly and half-politely: "There is Lord Lao." ”

Helian Yu led the way in front, and the concubine took the princess's hand in front of her, and she was very cautious in her heart.

The meaning of today's wedding banquet, whether the rest of your life will be happy or sad, will be revealed in the next moment.

She shook her mother's hand.

"The princess doesn't need to be nervous, this king said that our new king is a true hero of the grassland."

The two of them were shocked again, and then a little warmth flowed, because the person in front of them was ...... It's horrible! At this time, they could not determine whether this man was friend or foe...... She remembered the brocade bag in her sleeve, but she had doubts in her heart.

After it is credited.

People from the left and right removed their heads.

There are small cases on the left and right sides of the tent, and there is a man sitting on each side of the table, very casually, most of them are sturdy, with tattooed hair, and their clothes are mainly sheepskins, all staring at her directly, as if she were a lamb to the slaughter.

Unexpectedly, this was the scene, and she immediately blushed.

With a low chin and low eyebrows, two earlobes, a shy appearance, a slushy complexion, and a delicate and beautiful look.

At the top of the middle of the desk, a man sat cross-legged on the floor, his eyes shining brightly, and the corners of his eyes smiling, staring intently at his wife who had come from afar.

"Don't be afraid, you look up."

His voice sounded gentle, not at all like the people he had just met.

Xiangyang raised his head again.

Looking ahead, with just one glance, her heart was like a deer crashing, "plopping" and jumping.

A sudden burst of joy rose in my heart.

The man was about two years old, wearing a multicolored detailed robe, brown chestnut skin, or weathered by wind and frost, looking a little rough, his facial features were sharp, his nose was high and thin lips, thick eyebrows and starry eyes, black hair was tied with mutton fat jade on the top of his head, and he wore a white jade and agate jet-black forehead band.

There was a smile in his eyes.

Almost instantly, the man Huo Ran stood up, holding a glass of joy wine in each hand.

Helian Jiayi walked towards Xiangyang.

The person in front of him, with a long and clear body, sonorous steps, handsome and chic, revealed some indescribable wildness, a kind of unruly like a wolf and a tiger, not as obedient and gentle as a big Yin man.

At first glance, it is majestic and involuntarily timid.

Helian Jiayi raised the glass, slowly paced closer, and handed her the wine in the glass.

A beautiful sound sounded in my ears, like the chime of a jade bell.

"She is so beautiful that she is worthy of my princess of the North!"

"I heard the customs of Dayin, on the wedding day, you must drink the wine, come, princess, let us drink this cup together!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of jokes and jokes in the tent, and everyone raised their glasses to congratulate, bold and joyful, and everyone present was a drunkard and a drinker, and they ate very happily.

"After drinking this wine, it is like worshipping the church."

"You and I are already husband and wife, don't be afraid."

He stood in front of him, just a stone's throw away, but his voice was low and soft.

She clasped her hands together in her wide red sleeves, nervously stirred up, her cheeks were flushed, but now she was burning, and when she faced those bright eyes, she suddenly relaxed.

He took the glass, looked at him, hid his face and drank it all.

"Come!"

"Help the princess stay and rest first."

Helian Jiayi's words aroused the warm sighs of the audience, and some bold and unruly courtiers ridiculed:

"The king has not yet taken the bed to protect the short, it seems that this princess is undoubtedly favored, and the minister only looks at a few little beauties by the couch in the past,...... Afraid you're going to fall out of favor? Why don't you give it to us? ”

After speaking, there was another laugh in the tent.

When he heard this, his expression was not angry, and he smiled straightforwardly: "If you like it, take it, so as not to say that this king is stingy!" ”

"No...... That's the king's woman, I don't dare to ask for it, but I heard that there are many stunning women who are close to each other this time, why don't you push the boat down the river and pick out a few from here to reward me? ”

"Wendu, you're not authentic, the brothers haven't spoken yet! Yes? ”

After the man finished speaking, everyone echoed loudly.

Knowing the truth that "the holy monarch does not be a miser", Helian Jiayi has a beauty in hand, and he never thought of taking another concubine.

He raised his glass and drank it all, and said boldly:

"Hahaha...... Since ancient times, heroes have been sad to pass the beauty pass, all of you are heroes, and you must have beauties to match...... Don't worry, this king has always had clear rewards and punishments, and everyone in this golden tent today has a share! ”

"Good!"

"Worthy of my king!"

……

There was another hearty laugh from a man in the tent.

After holding ceremonies such as worshiping the heavens and worshipping ancestors, Xiangyang was already exhausted, and the whole person was so prostration, unable to speak, and his neck was stiff, like a puppeteer.

Concubine Shi asked for orders to enter the account and take care of the princess herself, but was rejected by Helian Jiayi.

The lean face smiled wickedly.

"On the wedding night of this king, don't think about making trouble!"

When he thought of the talented man, the smile in his eyes deepened, and even the guards in front of the tent understood: The king is very happy today.

Inside the Golden Horde.

Xiangyang sat on the gum of teeth, only to feel that her eyelids seemed to have a thousand pounds of burden, constantly drooping slowly, and just when she was about to lose consciousness, her hand hidden in her sleeve pinched herself fiercely, and then she was full of excitement.

After repeating this a few times, her feelings gradually became numb.

And the two servant maids watched her silently. Of course, they didn't know what the new princess was doing.

Finally, Xiangyang couldn't hold back any longer, "hula", and fell backwards.

…… It's so soft...... Comfortable......

As if lying on top of cotton, swaying in the clouds, she only felt extremely sour for a moment, and immediately it was pitch black in front of her.

"Princess......

"Princess!"

……

No matter how the outside world called, she could no longer hear her.

Outside the tent, there was a bonfire, the smoke was thick into a red dusk, and all the local people were killing sheep and cattle, drinking and eating meat, singing and dancing in a noisy and jubilant place.

Their king married the princess of Da Yin.

This means that, at least for a few years, there will be no more war between the North and Dayin, and they will be able to avoid poison and will not die in vain. These people, they just want to live in peace.

Because they were never the ones who wanted to fight!

But they have to bear the consequences of the war.

This heartfelt joy, as a princess, Xiangyang, who has been in the deep palace for many years, naturally can't understand. While the people of the North were cheering, she was still a little unsure, so shouldn't they hate her? Just because she is the princess of Da Yin.

The noise outside came and went, as if it was more lively.

In a daze, she felt her body leap into the air and fall into a thick arm, warm and soft, steady, and very reassuring.

Unconsciously, the sleeping person let out a sigh.

The man in his arms had a slap on his hand.

He laid her down on the couch, stretched out his hand, and gently scraped the tip of her straight and delicate nose.

One time...... Double-click...... Three times ......

"Don't move...... Sister Junzhu ......"

She stretched out her snow-white paws, waved them softly forward, and then rolled over.

The corners of his mouth came out, and a smile appeared inadvertently, and his eyes were soft, adorned with the starry sky. It was his dream, and now that it had come true, he felt extremely lucky.

"Little fool ......"

"You've forgotten the king!"

Seeing her sleeping and pursed mouth, Helian Jiayi laughed unconsciously. Who would have thought that this former majestic king of the Northern Realm would be like a child at this moment.

Reminiscent of the recent struggle for the throne......

He almost died, but fortunately, at the most critical moment, Uncle Wang resolutely came to his aid, ambushed the soldiers in the tent, and chased and killed the old enemy, so that he could successfully seize the throne.

Uncle Wang, on the other hand, put forward a condition to him, the content was simple and harsh.

Now looking at the person in front of me, I feel that it is worth it.

Xiangyang slept soundly for a long time.

In her sleep, she was like a young baby, soft and simple, and smacked her lips from time to time.

"Hmm...... Mother ......"

She flipped over and nearly fell off her teeth, but the maid beside her held her firmly.

Suddenly, Xiangyang suddenly woke up!

She opened her eyes and looked around, and found herself lying on a gum, and the couch under her was even bigger than the beginning!

The gums were as white as jade, wide and low, with no curtains around them, and they were empty.

"This ......"

When you look closely, it is covered with a thick brown and black mink fur, covered with a red plain brocade, and falls to the ground. The two ends of the dental bed are set up, and there are two jade entwined lampholders on each side, and four huge night pearls are placed in the place of the lamp holes.

"I ...... Where am I? ”

The maidservant beside her smiled and said, "Princess, this is the king's golden horde." ”

"What about these ......"

She gestured around, speechless in horror. That means they're going to be in that kind of place......

"I remember, Fang is the curtain?"

Unexpectedly, the maidservant just smiled and explained in an unfamiliar Da Yin dialect:

"That was the king's order, specially prepared for the princess, so that you can rest in peace, and now this is the wedding couch of the king and the princess......"

What the servant girl said later, she could no longer hear.

Do you really want to be here......

The thought of this made her cheeks feel feverish.

"Mother...... Mother ...... What am I going to do? ”

She whispered silently in the depths of her heart.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, two slaves and maids dressed in northern clothes cautiously opened the tent curtain and came in, and their hands were holding **, Xiangyu and other toiletries, walked to her side, bowed down and half-knelt down and said:

"Ask the princess to wash up and rest."

Xiangyang was suspicious and uneasy.

"Why...... Why don't you see my handmaiden? ”

The maidservant looked up at her.

"The king said that the women who were married by the princess were all very beautiful, and they didn't want to be monopolized, so they gave them to the adults."

With a "pop", her whole heart was lifted.

Xiangyang's eyes widened, and he spoke very slowly, word by word, word by word.

"That'...... What about my mother...... And what about her personal maid? ”

As if seeing through her worries, the maidservant couldn't help but smile.

"Princess, don't worry, Madame is a distinguished guest, we naturally don't dare to slack off, we have already served in the tent to rest, as for the maid that the princess said, she must also be by her side."

The palpitations were immediately relieved, and she tentatively made a request:

"Can that ...... Would you like to come over at this moment? ”

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, the other party shook his head firmly.

"No, you can't. Tonight is a night of rejoicing between the princess and the king, and no one else can disturb it unless there is an order from the king, no matter who it is, otherwise it ....... ”

"Hmm......"

The spark in his eyes dimmed for a moment.

Even as a princess, she didn't dare to make a mistake when she first arrived, so she had to be served by these two maidservants, remove her makeup, take off the hairpin ring and wash, and secretly took out the rouge she was carrying, and re-leveled her makeup.

There should be none here.

In terms of the rules of life, she is not as particular as in Yin Palace, she only feels a little sad, and her face is always unhappy.

"Alright, you all go down first."

When they turned around, Xiangyang suddenly said worriedly:

"I ...... The princess ...... Shall you lie down before your king comes? ”

The tone was half inquiry, half pleading.

The maidservants looked at each other, muttering at each other, not knowing what to say.

"You are the princess, this is your home, you can do whatever you want!"

After a whole day, she was relaxed at the moment, and she felt even more unbearable to sleep, so she left all her emotions behind and began to fall asleep in a daze.

When I slept until half past two o'clock, it was noisy outside.

At the same time, she faintly heard the sound of a flute coming from the distance, the timbre was low and fluttering, but it penetrated into the eardrum very clearly, and it continued one after another, as if venting, as if she was confiding.

"Who's playing the flute so late?"

The man on the couch was fully awake.

The sound of the flute is sad but not sad, high and low, low and frustrated, tactful and straightforward, stating a strong feeling of longing.

Secretly suspicious, so she left the noise outside behind, and listened carefully, she has always been well-informed, and she heard that this song was actually a little-heard of "Hu Ji Eighteen Beats".

"It turned out to be the voice of Hu Ji......"

"At this hour, I don't know who it is, and who are you missing? It turns out that there are such elegant people in this northern border. ”

Thinking of his current situation, a faint sadness swept up again.

Thinking for a long time, I couldn't sleep alone, I thought about it for a long time, and then I fell asleep again unconsciously.
