Chapter 3: The Divine Decree Arrives
The endless Taihang Mountain, the clouds and mist are intertwined with the peaks, the pines and cypresses are lush and green, the trickle is like a jade belt hovering in it, the crisp sound of the wooden fish comes from far and near, the ancestral hall with green tiles and white walls is faintly curling with green smoke, and the wisps of sandalwood are mixed with the fragrance of plants, which is exceptionally fresh and pleasant.
There was a young girl in front of the Buddha case, dressed in green clothes with her eyes slightly closed, her hands folded and chanting scriptures, she was concentrating on praying for blessings, and someone behind her was even calling her unaware.
"Ye'er, Ye'er......" The man saw that she didn't respond for a long time, and rushed into the ancestral hall regardless of 3721, pulled her up, and said breathlessly, "It's amazing, something is wrong......
Liu Ye slowly opened her eyes, as clear as autumn water and as bright as starlight, her white and red face revealed a bit of innocence, she smiled slightly and lightly opened her red lips: "Sister Xiao, what big things can we have here, don't worry, talk slowly." ”
"Ye'er, something really happened, just now, the imperial court sent someone just now, saying that they wanted to summon you into the palace......"
"Into the palace? The royal palace? Ye'er was slightly stunned, and hurriedly got up and grabbed her hand and asked, "Sister Xiao, what else did you hear?" Did the king of Chu want us to go back to Pengcheng? ”
"No, it's the palace, the palace of Chang'an City, the official said that there was a holy decree from His Majesty, and Daddy will tell you to go back. Ye'er, you say, what the hell is going on, how could His Majesty suddenly summon you into the palace for no reason? ”
It's coming, it's finally here!
Liu Ye couldn't hide the ecstasy in her heart, her eyes burst out with excitement, the long-awaited moment had finally arrived, and she was fully prepared.
Two years ago, because he accidentally traveled to this dynasty and incarnated as his idol Princess Jiewei, Liu Ye finally accepted this reality, and also studied the words and deeds of women in the Han Dynasty for the upcoming test. At first, it was difficult to get used to both the dialect and the diet, and if she wasn't familiar with the history of the Han Dynasty, I'm afraid she would have been unbearable.
Coincidentally, Princess Jiewu's milk name is also Ye'er, and at that time, Liu Yi's family didn't know that their daughter would marry Wusun as a princess, if they knew, I am afraid they would take her away at all costs. After all, in the minds of ordinary people, it is somewhat shameful to be a princess, and in the kind of barbaric place in the Western Regions, men don't take women seriously at all, no matter if you are a princess or whatever, they are all tools for inheritance.
Of course, Liu Ye will not obediently accept the arrangement of fate, let alone be at the mercy of other people, what about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, what about Wusun Kunmo, she has passed through from modern times, and she has the ability of "unpredictable prophet", if she doesn't want to go to the Western Regions, she will be able to fool that Emperor Wu of Han.
However, history does not allow change, and if she falsifies history because of her own selfish interests, the consequences will be unimaginable. Besides, Liu Ye doesn't want to change, she is now the princess of anxiety, a heroine among women she has always admired, and her life experience like her can be described as unparalleled.
It is now 103 B.C., and the historical records record that Wusun Kunmo proposed to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in this year, asking to marry the princess of the Han Dynasty again, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty thought about it, thinking of the family of Liu Yi, who was far away in the mountains for the first emperor to guard the tomb.
Although Princess Heqin has the name of a princess, the treatment she suffered is very different, and Princess Xijun, who was sent to Heqin before, died depressed because she couldn't stand all kinds of barbaric acts in the Western Regions. Therefore, the emperor was reluctant to send his daughter to suffer, so the best candidate was the daughter of a clan relative with royal blood and no status.
Of course, no one, including Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, thought that Princess Xie Wu would make a big difference.
"Ye'er, did you hear me, why aren't you afraid?" Feng Yan noticed the changes in Ye'er in the past two years, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.
"Scared?" Liu Ye thought that his reaction was indeed unreasonable, Liu Yi's family was still guilty of it, and they had nothing to do with the royal family for so many years, and they would definitely be frightened when they suddenly received the holy decree.
In the past two years, Liu Ye has been getting along with them day and night, and emotionally they are already a family, and in the next few years, Feng Yan will not only be her sister, but also her right-hand man.
Looking at Feng Yan, whose eyes were red, Liu Ye's heart was hot, and he patted her hand and comforted: "It's useless to think about it so far, tears won't change our fate, we must face it, Ye'er is not afraid, and my sister should not be afraid." ”
Feng Yan nodded heavily: "Okay, whether it's a blessing or a curse, my sister has to be with you." ”
Doctor Qing unfolded the holy decree and read it aloud, and glanced at Ye'er lightly, this girl is beautiful, but her body is too thin, I don't know if she can withstand the long journey of thousands of miles, whether it is really as good as Princess Chu said.
Six years ago, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty married Princess Xijun to Wusun Kunmo, although he did not make much achievements, but he did not discredit the Han family.
This time, Wusun begged again, and the delicate princesses cried and made trouble, and none of them were willing to go to that wild place. If someone hadn't remembered Liu Yi's family who guarded the tomb of the first emperor at the foot of Taihang Mountain, I was afraid that the emperor would still be worried about this matter.
Liu Yi was originally a descendant of the king of Chu, and his father Liu Wu rebelled, and as a result, all his descendants were demoted to commoners. Although he was demoted, Liu Yi is still in royal blood, and his daughter has become the most suitable candidate for this relationship.
Liu Yi has been a servant since he was a child, he has neither read nor seen the world, he can't do anything but feed horses, is a rough daughter like him really as smart as Princess Chu said?
Doctor Qing was deeply suspicious of this, and after he read out the holy decree, Liu Yi and his wife were still lying on the ground and shaking, not even daring to raise their heads, and then looked at the girl who was named the princess of worry, not moving at all, expressionless, as if they were scared stupid.
Doctor Qing was too lazy to speak, but the will of the saint still had to be conveyed clearly, lest they not understand and pretend to understand themselves, he cleared his throat and looked condescendingly at Liu Yi and his wife: "Liu Yi, you are the son of a rebel, a grass people are ignorant and ignorant, originally this kind of honor is unimaginable, now Your Majesty the emperor is magnificent, named your daughter a princess, and married Kunmo of Wusun Kingdom, this is a great honor, your family must know how to be grateful to Dade, teach your daughter well, and never make immoral acts, Insult my big man's face. ”
At this time, Liu Yi was already in tears, he had been accused of rebelling against the son of a minister since he was born, and it was unknown why his father, who had never been masked, rebelled against the court, and he didn't want to fight for right and wrong. He only has one daughter in his life, Ye'er, not seeking glory and wealth, but seeking peace and security, but the emperor will separate their father and daughter with a holy decree, and let his daughter replace those golden branches and jade leaves to marry the barbarians, this is not the emperor's grace, but the holy order is difficult to disobey!
Even if Liu Yi has never read, he also knows that the Western Regions are barbaric, and the daughter who is like a flower and jade marries thousands of miles away, which means that she will say goodbye forever, no matter whether she will live well or not in the future, it will be difficult to see each other again, and she is not familiar with life in a foreign land, and she does not dare to speak out when she is bullied, and she does not even have a person to complain.
The father is still so sad, not to mention Ye'er's mother Zeng, she raised her head with courage, her pale lips trembled slightly, and she snorted: "Since we are grass people, we dare not ask for a prestigious position, and please ask Your Majesty to take back your life!" ”
"Presumptuous!" Doctor Qing snorted sharply, and pointed at the Zeng family with raised eyebrows, "You are resisting the decree, and resisting the decree is a capital crime!" ”
Hearing the word "death", Liu Yi shuddered with fright, and hurriedly pulled his wife and explained to Dr. Qing: "The grass people don't dare, don't dare...... It's just that Ye'er is still young, I'm afraid she can't take on this heavy responsibility! ”
"Diao Min, Your Majesty has made up your mind, how can you say more!" Doctor Qing pointed at Liu Yi's nose and reprimanded, "Don't forget, you are just a son of an anti-minister, the first emperor has left you alive is already benevolent and righteous, you don't have to know what is good or bad, your daughter represents the Han and Wusun harmony, it is regarded as a meritorious service." Unexpectedly, you don't know how to be grateful, but instead use strong words, don't you also want to rebel! ”
Liu Yi hugged his wife and shrunk his head, he didn't dare to say a word, his desperate eyes were full of tears, the couple felt sorry for their daughter, no one was willing to let her suffer this crime, they would rather suffer more than look at the name of the emperor's relatives, but the holy order is difficult to disobey, they have been degraded for many years and have no support, and they really don't know what to do.
