Chapter 9 North Mountain Division

The Northern Wilderness Palace, the Wutong Palace.

Outside the hall, there are green bamboos surrounding, very quiet and quiet.

A clear stream of water flows through the bamboo forest, and the stone steps are mottled with moss.

The palace ladies held all kinds of gift boxes in their hands, and the shoes on their feet made a rhythmic sound on the stone steps. If there are people who know how to do it, they can hear from these footsteps that these palace maids all have martial arts.

The first is the gift box, and the later is a relatively large box. There were only two women in the Wutong Palace, one sitting and the other standing, looking at all this expressionlessly.

The palace maids stacked everything neatly on the ground, bowed to the woman who was sitting, and said softly: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, all the things that the king ordered us to send are here. ”

The standing woman waved her hand, and the group of palace maids retreated, and suddenly the whole palace became silent.

Xuanyue sat on the chair, her beautiful eyes scanning all the boxes.

There was a bronze mirror in front of her, and at this moment, that bronze mirror reflected Xuanyue's face. In six years, she gradually faded away from the youthfulness of the year, her long hair was scattered behind her, and although her face was not made up, her face was already delicate.

Xuanyue was wearing a white jade thin cigarette dress, the tail of the skirt was long and dragged on the ground, sitting on a chair, like a lonely bird.

"Your Highness, most of the things sent are jewelry, and some gold and silver. It seems that the king treats His Royal Highness like the group of women outside. The maid Xiaocui opened the box and said calmly.

Every box contains unimaginable wealth in the outside world, and if someone is here at this time, they will definitely go out of their way to snatch it.

Xuanyue sighed: "It seems that he really wants to marry me off." ”

Xiao Cui hurriedly closed the door and whispered, "Your Highness, let's talk here, but we can't let others hear you." It would be bad if the king heard it. ”

Xuan Yue sneered: "This is the palace, and it's not his left tent royal court, what can I say!" ”

Xiao Cui smiled helplessly, her own highness has always been very bold, and she has not felt surprised all these years.

Xuanyue did not follow the route Tang Yun said, but found a caravan to go to the imperial capital of the Northern Wilderness halfway, pretending to be a lost rich girl from the Northern Wilderness, and promised to give them benefits when they arrived in Shangjing, so she went to Shangjing with the caravan.

This is also her chance, as the caravan has not yet reached Shangjing, the battle between the Great Zhou and the Northern Wilderness has started again. At that time, Beizhen was only allowed to enter and not leave, and even if she arrived in Beizhen, there was no way to leave.

That royal token is just a cover-up. What really proves her identity is a pendant that she has been tied around her neck.

There is a huge wolf tooth on the pendant, which was a gift from Kunlun Khan to her mother.

There was one thing Tang Yun guessed wrongly, and the intelligence obtained in the army was not accurate. She was not the illegitimate daughter of Kunlun Khan, her mother was the first imperial concubine of Kunlun Khan, but she was later persecuted, escaped from the palace, gave birth to her halfway, and then raised Xuanyue incognito.

The Muroyama tribe is not a powerful clan, but the entire clan is actually only there to protect Xuanyue's family, and their patriarch is the chief of the guard of Kunlun Khan. It's just that the Kunlun Khan of the Northern Wilderness died later, and no one knows the secret of the Muroshan Department anymore.

Helian Xuanyue was named the eldest princess of the Northern Wilderness, which did not cause too much controversy. is just a princess, as long as she is not a prince, the ministers of the court and the central government can choose to ignore it.

Now, Helian Xuanyue has reached the age of marriage.

This marriage was completely handled by King Zuo Xian. She is going to marry the son of the patriarch of a large clan with a population of more than 40,000 households.

Even so, as a princess, marrying such a person is considered a lower marriage. Helian Hu sent these gifts just to compensate for something.

Outside the door, there was a sudden sound of flapping wings.

Xiao Cui quickly pushed open the window, and a pigeon flew in from outside, Xiao Cui took off the letter tied to the pigeon's leg, and then led the bird to the trough next to the bird cage to feed.

Xuanyue opened the letter and glanced at it, her face couldn't help but be a little heavy.

"Xiaocui, get ready, let's go out in a while." Xuanyue said in a deep voice.

……

In the afternoon, a group of palace maids walked out of the palace.

They are the palace maids in charge of purchasing, and they are only given half an hour, and when the time comes, they will return with their things. If it's too late, you'll never be able to go back to the palace.

Most of them will go back, and the person in charge of the purchase is already an old man in the palace. They don't have any survival skills other than serving people, and they will starve to death when they go outside.

When the maids left the palace, they suddenly left the two of them from among the maids, because there were so many people on the street, and no one noticed them.

The weather in the Northern Wilderness is very cold, the people in the streets and alleys have already put on cotton clothes, the cold wind is cold, and the smoke on some stalls is blown back and forth.

Under the veil, are the faces of Xuanyue and Xiaocui.

"Princess, which restaurant is Zhong Shaobao talking about?" Cui asked.

"Shh Xuanyue made a silent gesture, "Don't make a sound, follow me!" ”

They came all the way to a large restaurant, the restaurant was very lively, Xiao Er just wanted to say hello, and was stunned for a moment when he saw the costumes of the two girls.

"We're looking for someone, you go and do your business!" Xuanyue commanded in a deep voice.

They went up to the second floor and stopped in front of a room. Xuanyue knocked on the door a few times with her hand, and it didn't take long for the door to be opened.

"Meet Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess!" In the room was a middle-aged man, dressed in a gray coat, looking very tough.

Xuanyue waved her hand: "Time is pressing, if there is anything, just say it." ”

Xiao Cui understood, she turned around and closed the door, guarding the door and staring at the movement outside.

The middle-aged man said: "At this morning's court meeting, the family of Zhang Peng, the governor of the southern state, was tragically destroyed. King Zuo Xian used his black wolf guard to kill Zhang Pengyuan's nephews in the border town army. ”

"Don't leave a living mouth......"

Xuanyue suddenly thought of something, and asked in a deep voice: "Except for Zhang Peng, there are still a few old ministers left by my father and emperor to His Majesty. ”

"There's only one left." The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, and then said, "It's Tuoba Louyu, the patriarch of the Beishan tribe!" ”

"Kitayamabe!"

Xuanyue's eyes widened suddenly.

The Beishan Department is a large clan in the Northern Wilderness, not only with a large population, but also with the children of the clan holding various important positions in the imperial court of the Northern Wilderness.

Such tribes are no longer confined to territory and cattle and sheep, and their every move will affect the changes in the Northern Wilderness.

But for Xuanyue, what is more important is her upcoming wedding.

The one she wants to marry is the son of the patriarch of the Beishan clan!

King Zuo Xian has tried his best in the past few years to cut off the old ministers entrusted by the emperor, and now, it is important to do something to the Beishan Department!
