Chapter 74: The Five Princes of the Seven Sects (1)
After eating and drinking, the three of them continued on the road, their current location is a forest, in order to reach Liuzhou faster, they decided to take the straight road, not the official road, so the place they walked, most of them are barren and overgrown forests, this walk has two advantages, one is to shorten the distance by almost one-third, and the other is easy to hide their whereabouts, after all, no one thought that they took a road that no one had walked.
Fortunately, although there are mountains from the imperial city to Liuzhou, they are not the kind of mountains that stretch continuously, nor are they steep and steep cliffs, the slopes are relatively gentle, and horses can also climb over the mountains.
However, there are also disadvantages, that is, there are too many insects, snakes and beasts in the mountains, because the proposal to walk in a straight line was put forward by Ye Shengge, so she naturally prepared the anti-insect medicine, and prepared enough seasoning for a day or two, ready to rest at night, if you are lucky enough to hit the prey, you can use it.
When dusk came, they would stop to rest, and the small fish would go near to see if they could catch their prey, and Yesheng Ge and Pingqiu would go all the way to dry wood in the forest, and at night they would not only keep warm, but also drive away wild beasts.
Yesheng Ge was holding a dead branch in his arms, so much so that he couldn't hold it with both hands, so he asked, "Let's take some back first, shall we?" ”
"Give me what you have in your hand, you are responsible for picking it up, and I am responsible for taking it." Pingqiu said from afar, his hands stretched forward, his arms slightly bent, and there were many dead branches on his arms.
"Yours also have a lot there, I'm afraid your hands hurt if you take too much." Yesheng Ge said, it's a big deal that they go a few more times.
"It's too troublesome, you put it up, this weight is nothing." Pingqiu said from afar.
"Alright, I'll give you mine." After listening to his words, Yesheng Ge didn't insist, and put the dead branches in his hands on his dead branches, and when she picked up the dead branches, she made them into two or three short, not long or short, just right.
The withered branches of Yesheng Song were put up, and the withered branches that Pingqiu Yuandao was holding with both hands were all up to his shoulders, and at this angle, Pingqiu Yuandao could no longer see the road conditions under his feet clearly.
"You just stand there and wait for me to collect some firewood." Ye Shengge looked at the distance and stood there, as long as the person is good-looking, even if he messes up his hair and clothes by doing this kind of thing, the person is naturally good-looking.
"Thankfully, ma'am." Pingqiu said with a smile from afar, he felt that his wife was the best, at least he liked it very much, and he liked it silently for ten years, and now the two of them have become husband and wife, and he found that the advantages of the other party are more and more, and he likes it even more.
Ye Shengge walked a little farther, and there was a dead tree in front of her, the pixels were not high, only half a head taller than a person, she kicked the dead tree to the ground, and the dead tree smashed into the dead leaves on the ground, making a crisp sound.
"Husband, why don't I sing to you." Yesheng Ge looked at the fallen tree, she was suddenly in a good mood, when she was in a good mood, she liked to sing, even if the key was not accurate, even if she only had one or two lyrics.
"I didn't expect Madame to be able to sing, I listened to it." Pingqiu said with a smile from afar, looking at Yesheng Song expectantly, watching her easily divide the branches of the dead branches, and then make the branches into several sections.
"Flowers bloom quietly and quietly"
"The sound of cicadas is quiet at the end of summer
……
"We were travelers along the way
How winding and bizarre the encounter is......" Yesheng sang while making all the dead trees into sections and putting them aside.
"The hug that used to be was real
I really can't go back
I understand that I can never say goodbye again......" After a while, Ye Shengge got the dead tree right, squatted down, picked up all the branches with both hands, and walked towards Pingqiu.
Pingqiu listened to Yesheng singing a gentle and somewhat sad song softly, and his eyes kept looking at her, and wherever she went, his eyes saw it.
"You who are gone with the summer
Lost in memory
Go to the end of time
I carry what I have lost
Continue to drift in the sea of people
Say goodbye to loneliness and be gentle......" Yesheng sang, the person walked to Pingqiu Yuandao, stopped singing, looked at him with a smile, and piled up the dead trees in his hands again, only to see those dead branches, covering half of his face, she was in a good mood.
"Let's go back." Ye Shengge clapped his hands and said.
"Madam, singing~" Pingqiu wanted to hear her sing, although he couldn't understand it, but the Yesheng song when singing was soft and very good.
"Erased names
I can't give it back again
Yesterday waved in the wind
I was reluctant to leave
So let's be free in forgetfulness
In an instant, ...... forever" Yesheng finished singing, and sang repeatedly, she just likes this song, the singer's voice is very gentle, and the person who sings this song is also a very gentle person, every time she listens to it, she will feel warm in her heart.
When they arrived, the little fish had not yet returned, and by this time the sun had already set, and only the end of the day was a little ruddy, and the sky was cold.
Pingqiu put all the dead wood in his hand on the ground at once, making a huge sound of wood hitting the ground, and then took out the dead branches and put them together, and started the fire with a fire breaker.
Wisps of green smoke rose, if they hadn't rushed to Liuzhou to save people, the current situation would have been really good, the evening breeze blew, blowing the leaves.
"Master, I caught two rabbits and a snake." The little fish also returned, and said loudly from afar, holding a rabbit that had been cleaned in both hands.
Xiaoyu was followed by Wuxi, and Wuxi was a washed and motionless snake in his hand, the snake was cyan, and I don't know what kind of snake it was, but it was okay to eat it, and it didn't matter what kind of snake it was.
They put branches on either side of the fire, found a long stick, skewered the rabbit and the snake, placed them on the branches on both sides, and began to eat the meat.
Since the rabbit and snake Wuxi have been rubbed with spices in advance, they will be eaten just after they are roasted, and Yesheng Ge still believes in Wuxi's cooking skills.
"Madame, you're singing to me." Pingqiu was bored from afar, so he opened his mouth and said, he hadn't heard enough about him, although the lyrics were full of parting.
"This ...... Let's tell a horror story. Ye Shengge looked at the sky and looked dark, and it was estimated that even if it was completely dark after a while, the black light would be blinding, which was very suitable for telling ghost stories.
"Horror Story...... Madame, I don't want to listen, I'm afraid! Pingqiu didn't want to refuse quickly, although no one in this world had ever seen a ghost, but thinking about it in the middle of the night always gave him a chill in his back.
"Coward." Ye Shengge made a rolling eye movement at Pingqiu Yuandao, who was sitting next to him.
"Madam, why don't you tell me about yourself, did Madam encounter a lot of interesting things when she was selling Yunjiu to other countries?" Pingqiu said from afar, she rarely said these things, even to Pingfeng Gongzi, she rarely said it, so she was more curious.
"You want to hear this? This is a long way to say, Wuxi is my personal guard, he knows it, why don't you ask him, after all, there are too many things going on, and I don't know what you like to hear. Yesheng Song said, speaking of which, he has experienced a lot of things and met many people when he came to this world, and it has been ten years in the blink of an eye.
"I'm going to listen to my lady tell me, why don't you ...... Why don't you tell me if you have done anything chivalrous and righteous in the rivers and lakes? Pingqiu said after thinking for a while.
"There is no such thing as chivalry and righteousness, but I have saved some people, one of whom you must know, is an unfavored prince of the Seven Sects Kingdom, that was four years ago, because of the help of that prince, my Yunjiu was able to enter the Seven Sects Kingdom." Ye Shengge said, speaking of which, it was really luck at the time.
"Madame, can you say a little bit?" Pingqiu was listening to the story from afar, and Xiaoyu also pricked up his ears, but Wuxi turned over the barbecue with his hands.
"This incident was also an accident, when I was on my way to the Seven Sects with a cloud wine, on the way, I was surrounded by the man in black, who recognized the wrong person, thinking that they were the prince's helpers, blocking our way, and by chance, we saved the prince. The prince is still young, three years younger than me, thin, even shorter than me, but he is naughty and lively, I don't know his identity, I just think he is too pitiful alone, so I took him to the Imperial City of the Seven Sects.
After he arrived in the Seven Sects, he revealed his identity, he was still a favored prince at the time, it was the year before last, I heard that the prince's mother died of illness, he was a little mentally disturbed, so he was not favored, I haven't seen him for a long time, and I don't know whether it's true or not. Ye Shengge was a little emotional, Yu Guang looked at Pingqiu Yuandao, and always felt that the five princes seemed to be more pitiful than Pingqiu Yuandao, after all, Pingqiu Yuandao was favored by the emperor.
"It is Jiang Yueya, the fifth prince of the Seven Sects Kingdom, who was once the most favored prince of the Seven Sects, and his mother concubine has been favored by the emperor for many years, and her power is monstrous, it is said that his mother has committed a great ban, it seems that ...... How to put it, most of it is party strife. After the mother concubine of the five princes was executed, the five princes went crazy on the spot because they witnessed the tragic situation of the mother concubine before her death, and the emperor finally sighed and let the five princes go. Pingqiu said from afar, he had heard these things at the time, and it was just a sigh, born in the emperor's family, there are many helpless things, if it is not for his father to protect him, whether he can grow up is still a problem.
The father is not only five princes and a few princesses, but many princes or princesses, and sometimes they are artificially drained before they have time to see the world.
"What a poor man, I'm afraid that after such a change, his smile will be gone." Yesheng Song has also heard it, but she is far away in Great Xia, so she really rarely helps, and she also has her own things to do, and the affairs of the five princes also need to be faced by himself.
"But the crazy one, but he was well protected by the old emperor, he didn't have to worry about food and clothing, he was crazy and stupid, no matter who inherited the throne, for the sake of face, he would not be biased too much." Ye Shengge said again, this is not a way to survive in the cracks, she knows that the fifth prince can't really be crazy, but she thinks that maybe he is really crazy, but there will be a lot less trouble.
