Chapter 120: Painstaking
In the middle of the warm and comfortable yurt, a huge incense burner is placed, and the rising green smoke sends a burst of fragrance. Sitting on the couch, the younger brother Shi vaguely remembered that Qing Ling said that there is a kind of incense that smells very intoxicating, but it is actually an invisible poison that harms people, some make people dizzy, some make people insane, and some have aphrodisiac effects.
Thinking of this, Di Shi shook his head in a panic, and he didn't recognize the man who held her hostage at first sight. I haven't seen him for half a month, and he seems to be a different person, but even if his appearance has changed a lot, his words and deeds are difficult to change in a short period of time.
Yes, the person who held her hostage was Prince Jiangbin, and his whole body had lost a lot of weight, as if he had shrunk twice, and his body seemed to be taller and taller, but he was no longer as stout as a herdsman, and he looked a little long. After he lost weight, his outline became much clearer, and his double chin, which used to tremble when he walked, disappeared without a trace, revealing a pointed chin that could be compared to a woman's pretty.
And his eyebrows and eyes are also like a trick, elongated and widened a lot, and his nose is even straightened, in short, Prince Jiangbin is much better looking than before, enough to be called a beautiful man. But even if he is a beautiful man, at best, he is a straw bag with gold and jade, his handsome appearance can't hide his flashy nature, and he is still a good-for-nothing guy with an empty belly.
Biting her lip in resentment, she jumped up and ran out the door, without exception, she was once again stopped by the fierce guards, and told her to wait honestly for the prince to come and see her.
"Joke, who is he, why should I honestly wait for him to come to see me?" Brother Shi scolded and fought with those sturdy guards, "If you still want to live, let me out quickly, and tell you that my father and mother will not let go of Qiuzi, and my brother Wannian, he is the general of Wusun, as long as he comes, you will only die." ”
The guards were beaten by her and had a sad face, but Prince Jiangbin had an order not to treat her badly, that is, if they didn't fight back, they scolded and didn't fight back, but let Di Shi go crazy like this, no one could stand it, and there was no choice but to have an order from above, and if he wanted to resist, he was powerless.
"Princess Dishi, we are all ignorant and coarse people, where is there anything to offend, please bear with me!" One of the older guards first showed weakness to her, pretending to be very humble and apologizing to her, "We are also acting on orders, it is not worth your temper to be so big, you have something to say, just wait to tell Prince Jiangbin!" ”
"you, you daring beasts, you dare to imprison this princess, it's an unforgivable sin! You are accomplices in holding this princess hostage, and don't even think about getting away with it! Brother Shi suddenly remembered something, and coerced and seduced, "General Chang and Brother Wannian will soon be able to find here, you don't have much time to live, it's better to take the initiative to release me now, and I will consider interceding for you at that time, otherwise, you don't blame me for killing them all!" ”
"Come on, Your Royal Highness Princess, we respect you for not having the same knowledge as you, and that's not for the sake of Prince Jiangbin's face. You don't want to make an inch, and use this set of words to scare children to bluff people, don't forget, this is Qiuzi's territory, and your General Chang is not so easy to find. Another guard, who had nowhere to vent after being beaten, said mockingly.
"I am the princess of Wusun, and I was tied up like this by you, my father and queen mother will definitely not give up, and will definitely ask King Qiuzi for guilt. If this matter is a big problem, none of you will want to survive except Prince Jiangbin. You don't care what your identity is, this princess doesn't appreciate it if she intends to let her live, okay, you just wait to be asked, but before that, you have to think clearly, whether there is a prince's identity to save your life! ”
A few little guards were indeed frightened, and they were a little frightened when they held the princess hostage, but fortunately, they had Prince Jiangbin as their backer, and if something happened, Prince Jiangbin could carry it. But now things are getting bigger and bigger, this princess is obviously not easy to provoke, in case of a big disaster, Prince Jiangbin has the support of the king, he will definitely be able to protect himself, but if he uses them as scapegoats, and if something happens and puts the blame on them, what should he do then!
The older guard just now saw the worry of his subordinates, waved his hand and said softly: "Isn't it just a little girl, what is there to be afraid of, if something happens, there is still our Prince Jiangbin, it has nothing to do with us." It's a big deal to blame the above, let's all go back to our hometown, wouldn't it be better not to do this kind of errand. Hey, we are poor and white little people with no status and no backing, and we can live anywhere, what do you want to do with those useless people! ”
"Yes, yes, is there anything to be afraid of, this is all the trouble caused by Prince Jiangbin, even if King Wusun wants to make trouble, he can't find us, he only knows Prince Jiangbin, he knows who we are!" It still depends on the owner to beat the dog, can our king just watch? ”
"Haha, you think you're a dog, you're a dog, we're not! Hurry up, let's draw a line with him, it's hard enough to be a little commoner, and he still has to be a dog! ”
"Fuck you, it's true to say it casually, I'm a dog, what are you, you're the same as me......"
The guards were in a mess, no one took Brother Shi seriously anymore, and Brother Shi lost his temper and returned to the yurt in a huff, listening to them making fun of each other outside, and his heart was very upset. However, smelling this aroma, her mood gradually eased again.
Suddenly, it was quiet outside, and then a small footstep was heard, and Di Shi sat up straight, for fear that Prince Jiangbin had returned.
"Strange, why should I be afraid of him, obviously he made a mistake! He should feel weak and feel sorry for me! Brother Shi cheered himself up, and after thinking about it, he couldn't help but be discouraged, "But he has already snatched me in, and he doesn't stop doing it, even if he does more excessive things to me, no one can ask now, and besides, he is the prince of Qiuzi, can my father and queen mother really declare war on Qiuzi for me?" ”
Brother Shi lowered his head with a bitter face and muttered to himself: "No, my father and mother will not fight for me, no one is more important than Wusun's stability, let alone being held hostage, even if they are killed, they will not let Wusun fight again." Prince Jiangbin just wants to get me, and when he succeeds, he should be able to let me go!" ”
"Brother Wannian......" Brother Shi regretted very much at this time, "I knew that today, I might as well hand myself over to you, why did you push me away, is it in your heart, I don't even have the qualifications to warm your bed?" Woohoo......"
"Slave and maid, see Her Royal Highness the Princess!" Four maids walked in front and back, and they respectfully saluted their younger brother Shi, as if they didn't see her crying.
Brother Shi raised his head in surprise, seeing that they were dressed very exquisitely, they should all come out of the palace, and they didn't know how many times better than the vulgar guards before. Even so, Di Shi was still not happy in his heart, Jiang Bin found these maids to serve her, did he plan to imprison her here for a long time? Even if you don't want to let her go after you succeed?
"Woo woo......" Brother Shi lay on the table and cried loudly, it seemed that there was no hope of leaving here, that straw bag not only wanted to get her person, but also wanted to get her heart, why did he treat her like this.
I don't know how long she cried, but when she looked up again, the maids were gone. Brother Shi walked out with sobs, and the guards were gone. When night falls, the moonlit meadow glows with a little silver, and the small river not far away flows, accompanied by the cry of birds in the mountains and forests, as if you are in a paradise.
Di Shi thought that this was Jiangbin's trap, but she waited for a long time and didn't see him appear, the guards and maids left, and it seemed that she was the only one left here. Di Shi didn't feel scared at all, she even thought that maybe her father and mother had found out that Jiang Bin had kidnapped her and put pressure on the Qiuzi court, and Jiang Bin could only let her go in a hurry. Or General Chang and Brother Wannian came to him, returned his body in the way of others, and caught Jiangbin as well, forcing him to let her go.
Brother-in-law walked towards the river, and finally regained her freedom, and she must get out of here as soon as possible. As she walked, she saw a table by the river, which was piled with flatbread, roast, fruits, and other foods, and thought that this might have been left by the guards, and she planned to dismiss it, but her stomach was growling.
If you want to go back to Wusun, you always have to bring something to eat on the way, Di Shi took two cakes casually, smelled the aroma of barbecue, and couldn't help but look at it a few more times, she took a fruit and ate it, but she didn't expect that instead of being able to divert her attention, she became more and more hungry. Finally, Di Shi sat on the grass, grabbed the barbecue and ate it, until he couldn't eat any more, then rubbed his stomach contentedly, got up and continued to hurry.
At this time, there was the sound of drums behind her, and countless torches were lit up overhead, and Di Shi was stunned in place, and before she could turn back, she heard the music of the guqin again, and she was at a loss, and instantly overturned her previous conjecture. She turned her head stiffly, and saw the maids playing the drums, playing the harps, and dancing in bright costumes.
Brother Shi watched all this in a daze, and her heart gradually sank, until she saw Jiangbin playing the flute slowly coming, and she almost wanted to plunge into the river. Her father and mother didn't know where she was, and General Chang and Brother Wannian didn't come to her at all, she was still a prisoner imprisoned by Jiangbin. This hateful Gangbin makes her think she is free, but he ruthlessly breaks her illusions and makes her recognize her situation.
How long is he going to torture her, hide aside and watch her happy, I'm afraid he's snickering! Seeing her gobble up so many things, he staggered with laughter! Seeing that she was stunned by his design, he was proud in his heart!
"Don't jump, don't jump......" Di Shi covered her ears with her hands and ran towards the mountains and forests, she wanted to escape from this ghost place, she wanted to escape from the clutches of Jiangbin, even if she died in the forest, she would never return to that cage.
The drums and pianos stopped abruptly, and the maids looked at each other, not knowing if they had done anything wrong.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince......" The maids subconsciously went to chase after their younger brother, but unexpectedly Jiangbin shouted, "Stop, you all wait here for me." ”
As he spoke, he ran towards the back of his younger brother, they were far away from the light of the torches, and the forest was pitch black, and they couldn't see their fingers.
"Princess Dishi, Princess Dishi......" Jiang Bin began to be anxious, he was afraid that Dishi would not even care about his own safety in a fit of anger, "I can't go any further, there is a cliff in front of me, and it will be dangerous to go further......"
"Don't come here, if you come over again, I'll jump off the cliff!"
Hearing Di Shi's voice, Jiang Bin breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, I won't go over, and you don't have to go any further, we won't move around a step anymore, okay?" ”
"You stand still and don't move!" Brother Shi pointed at Jiangbin and said loudly, "I see that you are still walking, you are not keeping your promises!" ”
Jiang Bin knew that she could see him, and it was worth stopping: "I didn't go any further, I already stopped, Princess Dishi, don't move." ”
"If you want you to care about me, what kind of person are you, and what am I." Brother Shi scolded hatefully, "I have no grievances with you, why do you want to get along with me, I'm going to Dahan, but you hold me hostage in the middle of the road, aren't you afraid that my father and queen mother will settle accounts with you?" What's so great about you turtles, aren't you afraid of our general Wusun? ”
"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid!" Jiang Bin followed the voice to face his younger brother Shi, smiled slightly, and said, "Wusun is the number one power in the Western Regions, we Qiuzi really dare not go against Wusun, if it is because of my reckless actions that cause a war between the two countries, then I will be a sinner for the ages." ”
"You know you've caused a big disaster, but you still won't let me go?" Brother Shi thought he regretted it, and hurriedly said, "If you let me go now, I promise you that I will definitely persuade my father and mother not to pursue it, and treat it as if this kind of thing had never happened." ”
"But I don't regret it, if God gave me another chance to choose, I would still do it." Jiang Bin's tone was mixed with a bit of pride, "A manly man, you have to take responsibility for what you have done, I will not pass the responsibility on to others, if King Wusun blames him, I will confess my guilt, and I will never affect the people of Qiuzi." ”
"You bale of straw, fool!" Brother Shi was so angry that he was dizzy, "What are you going to do, you can't get along with me, right, what did I do wrong, you want to do this to me?" ”
"No, you're good, you're so perfect, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Bin smiled and said, "It's just that I like you too much, I can't help but miss you, even if I have a serious illness after returning to Qiuzi, and I can't eat and sleep every day, I still miss you uncontrollably." ”
"Crazy, you're really sick, you and I have only met once, and I haven't spoken to you, nor promised you anything, why do you want to do this!" Brother Shi tried to persuade him, "You are a dignified prince of Qiuzi, what kind of woman do you want, although I am a princess, I also have many shortcomings, in fact, you don't know, there are more princesses who are better than me, if you have seen their talents and knowledge, you don't want to look at me at all." ”
"I don't care what the other princesses are like, I just like you." Jiang Bin paused, and then said, "I know you don't like my looks, so I deliberately didn't eat or drink when I was sick, and I told myself that if I can't become what you like, I might as well die." ”
"You know? How do you know I don't like you? Di Shi was stunned for a moment, and then asked.
"I think I'm going to say sorry, but I went to say goodbye to you that day, and when I went to the yurt, I saw the queen, so I hid myself and waited for her to leave to see you again, but I overheard your conversation. Princess Shishi, I didn't mean to eavesdrop on you, but when you talked about me, I couldn't help but listen. Jiang Bin explained to her honestly.
"What? Why are you so despicable? You actually overheard me talking to the queen mother? Di Shi couldn't help but rush out, clenching his fists and pounding Jiang Bin's chest, "You are such a bastard, you are not only a useless straw bag, you are also a sneaky scum!" ”
Jiang Bin stepped forward and grabbed Di Shi's hands: "Yes, I'm a bastard, I'm a straw bag and a scum, I'm useless in your eyes." But I will change, I will definitely be your pride, I will work hard to learn to enrich myself, you also saw just now, I learned to play the flute, I have seen you dance, someone played this instrument, I came back and I learned it, and when I was sick, there was no delay. ”
"So what, even if you can become what I like, you are still a vulgar straw bag, you can learn the superficial things, but you can't grasp the substance, you can't draw a tiger and become an anti-dog, do you understand? You'll never be my pride! Brother Shi raised his head and glanced at him contemptuously, "I won't like you, never, don't waste your thoughts, you say so many high-sounding words, you just want to take advantage of me, okay, I'll let you succeed, but you have to promise me, after you succeed, you will let me go, don't want to continue to occupy me!" ”
"What are you talking about, I like you, I want you to be my queen!" Jiang Bin exclaimed angrily, "What do you think I am, you think I just want to occupy your body?" Why should I do that, you are my beloved woman, how can I do that to you? ”
"Isn't it? Otherwise, why are you holding me hostage? Aren't you doing this to take me by force, so that I will never be able to marry and ruin my reputation? Brother Shi struggled hard, kicking and kicking, "I'm not afraid of a good reputation, even if you occupy my body, my heart will not belong to you, who is rare to be your queen!" ”
"Because you're going to Dahan, don't you dare to say that you didn't go to Dahan to avoid me, you haven't given me a chance to get to know what kind of person I am, you don't know when you can come back, I don't do this, can you stay?" Jiang Bin begged bitterly, "Don't refuse me again, okay?" I'm sincere to you, can you give me a chance? ”
"It's not good, I don't want to give you a chance, there's no need for this, no matter how long you keep me, I won't like you." Brother Shi said categorically, "If you want to marry me, you can dream of it, I don't want to marry you even if I die, you are not worthy!" ”
Jiang Bin looked at her in despair and hatred, gritted his teeth, picked her up and rushed to the yurt: "You will change your mind, you will definitely ......"
Brother Shi slapped his face hard, and cried out loud: "Brother Wannian save me, save me, Brother Wannian, where are you......"
