Chapter 164: If Someone Is Not Good For You
The owner and his wife invited Zhuang Siyan into the tent, entertained her with good meat and milk, and even took out some fruits for her to eat.
In the case of a gale crossing and the loss of all things, this thing is indeed too rare, so Zhuang Siyan is also grateful.
But when it comes to Ge'an, the owner couple has a lot to say.
The royal family in the Kashgar clan seems to be more transparent to the outside world, not as secretive as the Dasheng Dynasty, and even ordinary people know about the royal affairs.
The owner of the house said that Prince Ge'an was not born to the queen, but was just a concubine of the king, so he was bullied by his two elder brothers since he was a child.
It was not the first time that he had been thrown into a strong wind and blown away, and almost every time a strong wind came, Ge'an would be tried by his two brothers to get him out of the house, trying to let the wind blow him away and never come back.
But I don't know if it's Ge'an's luck or God's blessing, over the years, he has been able to come back every time.
Zhuang Siyan finally understood his expression when Ye Cheng said "habit".
He's not used to this kind of injury, once a year when there is a gale, he will be thrown once, and twice when there is a gale, he will be thrown twice.
I must have been scared at first, but over time, I got used to it.
"Then why didn't he tell the king of Kashgar about this?" Zhuang Siyan asked.
The landlord shook his head: "What's said, the king of Kashgar also attaches more importance to his queen's two sons, besides, this prince of Ge'an has been cowardly since he was a child, and he does not fight with others, and he does not have the wildness of the Kashgar people, so he is not loved by the king." ”
In this way, Zhuang Siyan understood that Ge'an's situation was really a bit similar to Ling Tiancheng.
The mother has no power and cannot protect her son, and her own character is not what the father likes, so she has been bullied and kicked out of the house since she was a child.
Zhuang Siyan asked the landlord: "What about you?" Do you like Prince G'an, or his two older brothers? ”
The owner of the house did not hide it at all: "We are just ordinary people, of course we like Prince Ge'an, he has a good temperament, he is easy to talk, and he usually doesn't embarrass us when he comes out, even if he wants something, he will talk to us well."
His two older brothers were different, and everything in the city of Shakash could be snatched at any time if he liked it, including the girl. ”
"Huh? No, in that case, why are you still leaving, staying here and being robbed? ”
The homeowner smiled: "Go? Where to go, the vast desert and this grassland belong to their family, where to go is not the same? ”
In this way, Zhuang Siyan couldn't understand the people who fled earlier and have not returned to the Dasheng Dynasty now.
Life here is not good, why do they stay and not leave?
Speaking of this, the owner of the house actually laughed: "They have no place to go, right?" I heard that the Dasheng Dynasty has been in trouble again recently, and even the princes and generals have fled to Shakhash. ”
"Huh? Listen to whom? Zhuang Siyan was shocked.
The owner of the house replied naturally: "There are people living in the royal palace in the city of Shakash, and they came not long ago." ”
Zhuang Siyan knows, this group of people is likely to be Zhuang Changyuan's sons, but I don't know if he is in it?
She didn't do much in the city, but waited for Ge'an to come and see her.
When Ge'an came, she would be able to follow him into the palace to see who those people were.
This opportunity came just one day later.
Probably Ge'an was in his own palace, and he really didn't even have half a friend, and he lived very lonely, so he soon came to play with Zhuang Siyan.
It's just that when Zhuang Siyan told him that he wanted to follow him into the palace, Ge'an immediately shook his head: "You can't go." ”
"Why? I can see you every day when I go, and I don't have to run around like this, how nice. ”
Ge'an shook his head again: "It's dangerous there, you can't go." ”
"I'm not afraid, you're fine, I'm sure I'll be fine."
Ge'an was still not allowed, but Zhuang Siyan had to go, and said that if he didn't agree, Zhuang Siyan would find a way to get to know his two elder brothers and go in.
Ge'an's face changed suddenly, his teeth bit his lips, and after a long time, he said, "Okay." ”
On that day, he didn't let Zhuang Siyan go with him, but went back first, took his clothes and a curved knife.
"Change your clothes and treat them as my servants, ...... have wronged you like this, but you won't be able to get in otherwise.
You put away the knife, and if someone ...... and someone is against you, you poke him with the knife and run away. ”
Zhuang Siyan neatly put all the things on the ground, and praised Ge'an and said, "I can't see that you are quite thoughtful." ”
She reached out and pinched Geran's face again.
Ge'an stood still, but said something when her hand was withdrawn: "I'm not a child, I'm twenty years old, and I'm an upright man." ”
Zhuang Siyan was stunned when he heard this, as if he suddenly remembered that he had just dug him out in the desert.
His expression at that time was really mature and steady, if he didn't look at his face, he would believe it when he was thirty years old.
But after they went to Yecheng, Ge'an seemed to have changed his temperament, and behaved like a teenage boy in front of her.
Now pinch the head and remove the tail, and sum up the age.
He, Ge'an, is a twenty-year-old, dignified man, and most likely has unknown ambitions.
Zhuang Siyan sorted out the information he got in his mind, and his clothes were almost changed, but all the cosmetics he brought were lost, and there was no way to fix his face at this time, so he could only do this.
She followed Ge'an's side, tried her best to make it look like I was a little maid, and walked towards the palace step by step.
Zhuang Siyan had been to this place before, and before the gale, she had quietly come here to see it a few times, but she didn't have a chance to enter.
Now with Ge'an, I thought it would be smooth when I entered through the door, but I was intercepted by the guards.
"Who is she?" One of the guards asked.
Ge An looked at him coldly, and paused for a few seconds before speaking: "My slave, what's the matter, you still have to ask about the prince's affairs?" ”
The guards looked at him, and then at Zhuang Siyan.
That look really didn't treat Ge'an as a prince, but he didn't embarrass him in this matter, just said that it was their duty to protect the palace.
Maybe he thought that a little slave couldn't make any waves, so he let them in.
Zhuang Siyan looked at Ge'an's eyes with a little more sympathy, he was really depressed to be questioned like this in his own home.
He was even more pitiful than Ling Tiancheng.
The two finally entered Ge'an's residence, only to see him breathe a sigh of relief, smiled at Zhuang Siyan and said, "You will live here in the future, don't go out if you have nothing to do, it should still be safe." ”
Should it still be? Listen to this and know that it is not safe.
However, Zhuang Siyan didn't want him to worry, so he nodded and said, "Okay, listen to you." ”
Ge'an smiled again, and took the initiative to drag her hand and said, "Go, I'll take you to meet my mother." ”
Zhuang Siyan was a little resistant in his heart, and withdrew his hand without a trace, and said embarrassedly: "It's not okay, I'm only one servant, and it seems a little inappropriate to see someone like the princess." ”
Ge'an: "You're not a servant, you're my friend. ”
Zhuang Siyan: "......"
Seeing that he is honest and serious, it is really irresistible.
Ge'an's mother was so beautiful that Zhuang Siyan was suffocated, she thought that she came out of the palace of the Dasheng Dynasty, and she also read countless beauties, but as soon as she saw her, she felt that her two eyes were not enough.
She rubbed it vigorously, rubbed it again, and then looked at her again.
In an instant, layers of jealousy arose for Ge'an's father.
This old guy, where did he get the blessing to have such a beauty, but he didn't know how to cherish it, and he didn't even treat her son well.
At this point, Zhuang Siyan felt that Ge'an's father must not be a good thing.
If you extrapolate by age, Ge'an's mother is not as old as forty, but there is no trace of age on her face, but she has the charm of a mature woman.
Charming, gorgeous, like a rose blooming in the desert, people want to take her into their arms at a glance.
But her demeanor, words and deeds are the same as Ge'an's, especially formal and solemn, like a layer of golden light, covering this rose layer by layer.
It will make people reluctant to do it.
She didn't have the slightest doubt about Zhuang Siyan's identity, but after hearing Ge'an's introduction, she came over and gently held her hand and asked, "There are many rules here, so the girl is not used to it, right?" ”
Zhuang Siyan hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, it's all good." ”
The princess smiled: "If you need anything, just tell me, don't be restrained." ”
Zhuang Siyan was busy agreeing again.
Only then did she turn around, let her servant take out a box, and handed it to Zhuang Siyan's hand: "When we meet for the first time, please be sure to accept it, don't dislike it." ”
Zhuang Siyan was embarrassed and turned his head to look at Ge'an.
Then she saw a look of affirmation.
Zhuang Siyan didn't think much about it at the time, after all, Ge'an gave her a good knife before she came in, so she thought that it was the custom of people here to give things, so she didn't think much about it, so she accepted the box.
As a result, when I went back and opened it, I saw a necklace made of rubies inside.
The bright red color, shining brightly in the sun, flashed Zhuang Siyan's eyes.
People who have never seen the world again, and who have lived in the palace, can still be divided by gems.
This thing is too valuable, not an ordinary gift, and certainly not for ordinary people.
When Zhuang Siyan realized this, he hurried to find Ge'an.
"What, this thing is back to you, please help return it to the princess."
Ge'an looked at him with a frozen expression: "Why?" ”
Zhuang Siyan said embarrassedly: "It's too valuable, I can't afford it." ”
"Mother gave it to you, it means that you can afford it, take it."
Zhuang Siyan shook his head, put the things on the table, and when he turned around to leave, Ge An said: "I won't return it, it's better for you to give it to the princess yourself, after all, it was what she gave you, what if you have anything to say?" ”
What will the princess have to say to her? What could it be?
Zhuang Siyan couldn't imagine it, but what Ge'an said made sense, the thing didn't come from his hands, and it seemed a little inappropriate to return it to him.
She turned around and took the box back again: "Then I'll go and return it to the princess." ”
Ge'an said behind him: "Mother has just left the palace, and she may not come back until tomorrow." ”
