Chapter IX: Freedom
Satsuki fell to the ground, hit her head first, and woke up in pain.
In fact, it was not only her head that hurt, she found that her body was like being run over by a heavy truck, and she felt that her limbs and Wufu internal organs were about to be broken. She wondered if she was going to die, and there was nothing in her stomach that made her want to retch.
She sat on the floor in the middle of the tent and watched the light from the tent. She finally saw the sun.
She looked back at the back of the prince who was sleeping soundly on the bed, and her heart slowly became very calm when she thought about everything that had happened.
Theoretically, in fact, this night is not so embarrassing, but it turned a girl into a woman, but the way the two get along seems less humane, more primitive, in addition, Satsuki didn't feel any uneasiness, maybe too rational thinking often ignores the inner voice.
Yes, willing to gamble and lose. Satsuki looked down at her naked body, trying to ignore any marks on her body.
I'm sorry, Wen Xiaoyue, I didn't take good care of your body, I will treat it well in the future, Xiaoyue silently thought in her heart.
Considering the prince's unfriendly behavior towards him, Xiao Yue felt that it was best for her to leave quickly, worried that the prince would be angry with her when he woke up, so she tried not to make a sound, slowly packed up her dress, and walked out of the big tent gently.
The sunlight outside made it impossible for Xiao Yue to look directly at the pillar-like man standing in front of the big tent door, this person named Mu Ziyu.
Raising her hand to the light, looking at the man with an expression on his face, Xiao Yue simply said, "I'm hungry." ”
Mu Ziyu was originally a little worried, but Wen Xiaoyue's reaction was surprisingly calm, and he didn't know what to say, so he simply didn't say anything.
led Xiaoyue to the small tent next to her, drank some porridge, and ate some dry food.
After Xiao Yue ate and drank enough, she looked up at Mu Ziyu and said, "When will you fulfill the conditions we talked about before." ”
Mu Ziyu looked at Xiao Yue's eyes seriously, he couldn't find a trace of emotion in them, they were very pure, and there was no greed, he suddenly found that this woman's eyes were very bright, beautiful, and clean. He asked softly, "This is fine, are there any other requirements?"
Satsuki shook her head and only said, "Take me to my sister." ”
Mu Ziyu originally thought that she had other requirements, but she didn't expect it to be so simple, but she was worried that the prince might have other ideas when she woke up, so she was a little hesitant.
Xiao Yue looked at his uncertain expression and asked, "What are you waiting for? What if the prince wakes up and wants to kill me?"
Mu Ziyu was shocked, and felt that it was not impossible to do so, so his sin would be great.
So he hurriedly arranged a carriage to send Xiaoyue back to the camp, secretly thinking in his heart, send Xiaoyue away first, and when the prince woke up, if he wanted to kill, he would secretly release the people, and if he wanted to take the people back to continue to serve, he would go back and pick up Xiaoyuezai back. If the prince ignores it and stops, he will release Xiaoyue as agreed.
Xiao Yue didn't expect that on the way back to the camp, lying on the hard carriage, she actually cried, yes, she actually cried. Because she couldn't remember the last time, when she cried.
She knows that she rarely cries when she has a manly character, fills in the hole when she encounters it, solves it when she encounters it, learns to swim when she encounters a river, there is nothing she can't solve, even if she travels to a strange world, she has no relatives and friends, she doesn't want to shed a single tear. But why at this time, she cried?
Maybe the planks of the carriage were too hard, she thought, and it was uncomfortable to knock her bruised body.
Maybe it's because this world is no longer the world she lives in, there is no protection from her parents, no friends to accompany her, and this loneliness makes her sad.
But she felt that it had nothing to do with what happened last night, she thought that in fact, the prince was not a big villain in Xiao Yue's eyes, after all, this person was still very upright, and he was also good-looking, and then he was cheated, but Xiao Yue just felt aggrieved, and there was a feeling that she couldn't make it.
In fact, she can't remember exactly what happened that night, or she is reluctant to remember it, because what made her lose something that night she felt she would not lose again, was not the membrane, but a naked sense of shame. She was like a tool, and it was unacceptable to her.
She thought that perhaps the prince would be ashamed when he woke up, and killed her, because she clearly felt the prince's contempt for her. If you think about it differently, she is the prince, and she will also feel that there are a lot of things wrong with this night, so she has to flee quickly. Even if the crown prince is not a faint monarch who cares about human life, she does not dare to put her life in such a dangerous situation. She didn't think that the prince would keep her by her side, and she didn't dare to imagine that the prince would be responsible for her or anything like the world she lived in. In the nearly two months since she came to live in this world, she deeply felt how closely class, power and life are related, and the casual judgment of a small officer can make her lose her freedom and become a slave, this world is too cruel.
Satsuki wiped away her tears and said to herself, I must live well in this world, I don't want to cry, nothing can hurt me.
The prince completely slept until he woke up naturally, and he hadn't slept so comfortably for a long time. It seems that he hasn't relaxed himself like this since he can remember, and he usually feels half-asleep and half-awake even when he falls asleep. Seeing the light coming out of the tent above his head, he felt that it should not be early, and was about to get up, when he suddenly saw the messy quilt beside him, and on the bed was a white tiger skin, with a bit of dazzling red on it that seemed so abrupt that he couldn't look at it directly. He immediately remembered everything from last night, and he didn't want it to be true, but he couldn't control his eyes, and looked around for the woman's figure, but he was the only one in the tent. When he thought of the woman, he thought of that ridiculous night. He felt that he must be dreaming, but unfortunately he had no way to convince himself of all this in front of him. After the prince was dressed neatly, he felt that this matter still needed to be explained to others and himself. So he went out of the tent, but he still did not see the woman, nor did he have the woman's clothes on the bed in the room, as if she had never appeared before him.
He summoned Mu Ziyu, and the two sat in the big tent without saying a word, I don't know how long it has been.
Mu Ziyu, who had been stared at by the prince for a long time, kept feeling furious in his heart, held back for a long time, and asked: "Brother Chenhao, are you hungry?"
The prince scolded in his heart, and after holding back for a long time, such a sentence came out, but his body still told himself that he was really hungry now.
So he nodded, and Mu Ziyu hurriedly slipped away.
"What a fox!" the prince sighed, thinking that Mu Ziyu hadn't called him Brother Chenhao for a long time.
Next, no one mentioned the incident of that night again, the prince waited for them to give an explanation, but Mu Ziyu didn't mention it, and Wu Yong pretended not to know anything, so it was not easy for the prince to take the initiative to mention it again. As the war approached, everyone didn't have the energy and mind to think about this ridiculous night, this thing actually passed like this, as if it really never happened, although the three of them knew it, but this incident happened so oolong and disappeared strangely, even Xing Xiaoyu, the guard who returned to the prince's side after recovering from his injury, did not find anything unusual. It's just that he found that the white tiger skin on the prince's bed was gone, so he asked the prince casually, but when he saw the prince's murderous eyes, he immediately shut up. He vaguely knew that it seemed that something had happened to this big tent, but it should be something that the prince didn't like, and it was also a forbidden area for the prince.
After Satsuki returned to the baggage camp, Xiaolan asked her curiously how she got there, what happened, and she couldn't sleep for two nights. When Xiao Yue heard that two days had passed, she didn't notice it at all, she just whispered to comfort her and said that nothing happened, that is, she was pulled to ask questions, and it was estimated that they would be able to leave here soon. Xiaolan was very happy to hear it.
Xiaoyue later found out that No. 1 was no longer in the camp, and she asked Xiaolan what had happened in the two days she had been away? Xiaolan said that the front line was about to fight, and there were not enough slaves to work as coolies on the front line, so she pulled some young and strong female slaves to the front line. Satsuki thought that No. 1 should have gone to the front line, and she didn't think much about the others.
A few days later, General Wu's personal guards arrived at the baggage camp, showed the general order to the guards and said a few words. On the same day, Xiaoyue left the barracks with Xiaolan. When leaving, the guards gave them some paperwork for entanglement and customs clearance, and told them that General Wu said that Dongshan was in the war zone, and asked them not to go back directly, but to stay elsewhere until the end of the war before returning home.
Xiao Yue thought to herself, yes, the gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, and first avoids the war. Xiaolan said to the guards with tears in her eyes: "My father's name is Hu Dayong, he joined the army at the beginning of this year, I am his daughter Hu Xiaolan, and my little brother will help me bring peace when he sees him." The guards couldn't see the little girl's tears, and hurriedly agreed. Xiao Yue had no choice but to keep comforting Xiao Lan while thinking about what to do next.
To avoid war-torn areas, of course, you have to go in the opposite direction, but you always have to set a destination. Xiao Yue asked Xiao Lan if she had distant relatives at home, Xiao Lan shook her head, Xiao Yue had no idea in her heart. Forget it, take one step at a time, and leave the war-torn land first. In order to avoid being regarded as spies, both of them took the official road. The road was faltered by either merchants or heavy transporters, and there were no idlers.
Although they were young, they grew up in the mountains, and their steps were not slow, and when it was almost dark, a small village appeared in front of them.
Satsuki thought that she could only stay here tonight, but it was still difficult for the two little girls to deal with the bad guys. After observing for a long time, she saw that there was an old man with a kind face, so she asked Xiaolan to hide on the side, and she stepped forward to talk. The old man was drying vegetables in front of the door, watching it get dark and ready to pack up and enter the house for the night, Xiaoyue went over to take a hand, the old woman was a little kind, looking at this little girl is also a diligent person and couldn't help but chat a few more words, and as a result, he understood that the two sisters had no place to stay at night, so they invited the two to the house as guests. Xiao Yue thought to herself that the people of Great Britain were simple, and it seemed that there was a way to govern the country. After settling down that night, Xiaoyue was not reconciled, thinking that she had not yet settled in the future, so she asked the old man many questions, wrote them down one by one, and thought about them carefully.
The village where they settled is called Luoshan Village, which is on the west side of Dongshan, about dozens of miles away from Dongshan, and the place where the war broke out is not more than 10 miles away, so Xiaoyue feels that this place is still not very safe. There is a town called Rakdai Town to the west of Luoshan Village, and there is a waterway in Rakkudai Town, which can lead to many places, such as the Imperial City of Great Britain, and Satsuki thinks it should be the capital, and it is said that that place is called Yingjun, and the legend is very prosperous. Xiaoyue feels that since she has come to this world, it is not a bad thing to look around, since Yingjun is so prosperous, you can also see it for a long time, but she doesn't know if the travel fee is enough. Of course, it's not too early to worry about these things. Thinking about it, Satsuki fell asleep, but she still didn't dream.
It's as if I had a dream when I came to this world, and it was that long dream.
