Chapter 205: The Dust Settles (I)
He yawned, and found himself asleep in the carriage, with his head resting on his shoulder, while he flipped through a book of war in his hand.
"How long have I been asleep, why haven't I arrived?"
He closed the book and pinched the tip of my nose. "I'm getting more and more sleep now, and it should be in the afternoon."
"Hefeng is so cold." I wrapped my cloak tightly and shrunk into his arms.
Originally, he said that he would go to Hefeng to see Xueling in a few days, but he was not worried about Hefeng's public security, and he set off when Jibei completely took over Hefeng's affairs.
It's already summer, but you can still feel the temperature gradually decreasing when you are approaching Hefeng.
I saw the scratches on his wrists, compared them again, and asked, "Why are they exactly the same?" β
His voice was soft: "When I was a child, my mother said that there is a legend in Liangxi that if there are exactly the same traces on the body of the person you love, you can recognize each other in the next life." β
I stroked the lines on the scar, and there was a faint pain in my heart. Secretly, let Xia Xiying inquire about the news of the life and death Gu, but there was no clue at all, I don't know how long he can last, three or five years, or ......
The sound of horses' hooves tapping echoed through the rugged mountain road, and I thought with my eyes closed, and my mind was a mess.
It wasn't until Xiying called out that the wind had arrived, and I reluctantly changed my smile.
I was about to get out of the car, but he stopped me, first wrapped a cloak around my back, and then took out a plain ribbon from my cuff and blindfolded me. Without sight, the sound in my ears is clearer, and I can hear the whistling sound of the wind and snow blowing slightly, and I can also hear some slight footsteps.
He carried me out of the carriage and walked for about a while before he put me down and untied the ribbon.
Before opening my eyes, I felt a little uncomfortable, and I could only see some scenes vaguely when I squinted my eyes.
A few flakes of snow fell to the tip of the nose and melted away.
When it snows, the garden where I am is still warm, with hot spring canals on both sides, and the white heat in the canals melts the snowflakes in mid-air into water droplets.
"Teiji." There were more than a dozen people around, some young, some old, and a few children.
Imperial ...... Are they calling me?
These people wore narrow-sleeved colorful costumes with white silk tassels hanging from the hem of their clothes, and each of them had a friendly smile on their faces.
At this time, Redsleeves walked over from the crowd, also wearing the same clothes. "Niangniang, these are the old tribes of the Lu Yao clan, including the red sleeves, and they are all your mother's kindred. The prince has been looking for the Lu Yao people since last year, after all, he has experienced a life-and-death battle, although there are not many people found, but they all gather here to surprise Niangniang. β
I turned my head to look for Beiyu Jinchen, and he rubbed my hair as if encouragingly. "I want to find your relatives and give you a home."
When my eyes are sore, I always feel like I'm going to cry.
He probably hasn't understood that my relatives are him.
"The emperor and the queen are quite similar." An old man stroked his beard and held a cane in one hand, looking kind.
Behind him came a chubby woman, her hair meticulously combed, and she held my hand, which had many marks from rough work.
"We have prepared a gift for the emperor, although it is not a valuable thing, but we hope that the emperor will like it."
Several other women in the crowd rushed up and led me into the house.
The buildings of Hefeng are all made of whole logs, and you can smell the strong wood fragrance before you enter it. A piece of the front side of the house was carved out, and the crystal was used as the wall to cover it, and clusters of flames licked the charcoal, and the light was cut by the crystal, which was extremely beautiful.
The inside and outside of the house are two worlds, and as soon as you enter, you can feel enveloped in the warm sun.
They took out a plain shirt with a light collar style and gestured, at first glance there was a glazed luster surging darkly, the beads at the skirt seemed to ripple in the water, the silver thread was heavily embroidered on the neckline cuffs, the gradient petals were the appearance of white hibiscus in the water, and the fine velvet tassel shaped like a cloak was behind him, and the length was mopping the floor, adding a bit of luxury.
They asked me to try on the clothes, but I didn't expect them to fit.
The plain three-dimensional flowers on the outer layer of the jacket set off the whole person like a fairy in the picture, and the whole design is unique and exquisite.
"The prince really knows the size of the mother, and I was afraid that the clothes would not fit when I made them." Red Sleeves tore apart my already curly hair and combed it again.
"What is this garment?" Although the clothes are gorgeous, they are mainly white, and only in the funeral will people wear such a plain color.
"The Lu Yao people revere white, which is the purest color and symbolizes ...... Love. Therefore, only if there is a marriage matter within the clan will the elders sew white wedding dresses. She curled up all her hair and wore a silver lotus tiara with nine jeweled chains hanging from the tails.
The center of the eyebrows is dotted with cinnabar, and the lip color is also dyed with rose cream.
I grabbed her hand and asked, "Why ......?"
"Why do you groom now?" She saw my doubts, but the movements of her hands did not stop, and the other people went in and out without knowing what they were busy with.
"Because the elders have calculated, today is the best time to get married." She paused and said, "Although the prince and the mother have worked hard to come to Qin Se and Ming, the prince said that he owes you a wedding, so ......"
"So you've been preparing this lately?"
Red Sleeves nodded, and Ruo ran in with a grin and stuffed me with a handful of fresh white lotus with water droplets, which was still wrapped with white ribbons, which was very beautiful. "Sister Redsleeves said that the bride has to marry with flowers, which is also an excellent meaning."
"Just run fast." Xiying poked her head, rarely revealing a slightly angry look.
"Original...... Are you all hiding it from me? "No wonder I always feel that they look strange in the past few months, and I think it's because they don't adapt to the environment when they come to Daiguo.
Ruofei stuck out her tongue and tilted her head to look at me. "But I can't even say it."
The ghostly appearance amused the woman present, and I couldn't help but pinch her cheek.
Red Sleeves handed me a small piece of paper and a gold pen, "This paper is soaked in the water of the spiritual pool, according to custom, the bride is required to write down her wedding wishes, put it in this silver bell box, and hang it around her waist." The next morning, exchange wish sheets with your husband and bury them under the ivy, and you can last a long time. β
I thought about it and wrote: This life is inseparable.
No matter what happens in the future, I don't want to be separated from him again.
"The groom is here, come to pick up the bride, are you ready?" I don't know who shouted, everyone hurriedly put away the sundries, Ruofei hung the silver bell around my waist, and finally covered my head with a layer of snow veil, although the vision was hazy, but the general can see clearly.
The snow outside the door had stopped, and at the beginning of the moon, countless low silver candlesticks were lit on both sides of the road, like stars falling into my eyes.
He was dressed in white and painted in the shape of a white hibiscus, with a silver crown and a chain of fringed bells tied around his waist, and I wondered what he would write on that piece of paper.
When I walked in front of him, I could see the familiar face clearly, and the white wedding dress became more and more handsome like snow.
"Ladyβ" He bowed wryly, handing over a small box in his hand.
When the warbler opened the box, it was actually a handful of crushed snow wrapped in ice. "The first handful of snow in Xueling is a dowry, but it is still in line with the lady's heart?" His tone rose slightly, and his tone was gentle and mu.
"My husband has a heart." Holding the tone and the shelf, I also bowed slightly.
"Lead newcomers to bow down to heaven and earth." The kind-eyed old man shouted loudly, and Xi Ying took my hand in his hand in a matter-of-fact manner.
The warmth entered the bottom of my heart little by little from the palm of my hand, raised my eyes to look at him, and walked slowly, as if I could go all the way to the day when I grew old together.
A few wisps of wind blew by, ruffling the hair.
For some reason, I smelled the sporadic smell of blood.
The old man and the warbler walked ahead of us, and the fierce sound of the wind pierced the sky.
The uneasiness in my heart deepened suddenly, and I shouted: "Xiying be careful! β
She was able to dodge the dart, but the old man could not dodge in time, and was pierced through the center of his eyebrow, and before he could even say another word, he fell to the ground with a bang.
The screams were intertwined with the child's cries, and he subconsciously blocked me behind me, and Ji Bei, who was still fiddling with the candlestick, rushed up and asked, "Who is so bold?" Why don't you show up in the first battle! β
A woman in red jumped from the rooftop, with a bewitching gait, followed by a group of people in black masks.
I know her, and she was the one who kidnapped me that day......
"Su Rong?" I hesitated to whisper the name.
She clapped her hands: "Liu Sujin, Beiyu Jinchen, don't come to harm?" β
