Chapter 055: Respected
As for why this Great Khan was so revered, it was mainly because of his great exploits, which unified the entire Great Tribe. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Before Legor Khan, there were tens of thousands of scattered small tribes on the grassland, they attacked each other, fought each other, and grabbed all the resources needed for survival. And Legor Khan was also one of them, he continued to recover the surrounding tribes through various means such as marriage, vassalization, conquest, alliance, etc., and then slowly became stronger, and finally unified the entire steppe, established what later generations called the Great Tribe, and was called the Great Khan by all. It was under his rule that this steppe people awakened their national consciousness, and in their attitude towards the surrounding tribes, in addition to threats and grain reserves, there was an option of allies. After the death of Legor Khan, although the tribes began to conquer and plunder each other, the name of the Great Tribe was still preserved, and no one was willing to give up the name. This is one of the reasons why the Kugit Khanate was able to be formed in the steppes of Eastern Calradia.
When it comes to national sense, the Nords are too primitive. Until now, they still do not regard the Nords who are not their own tribe as their own, and the current Nord Kingdom, although it has also annexed many other Nord tribes, is also based on the one tribe in Gangding. And the other Nords, although they also admire the leader of this great empire who has slapped him in the face, but they are just worshipping, and they will not be soft when they should rob or can rob, and these chaotic pirates have also given the Nord kings a headache for generations.
Well, although there are some digressions, but then again, Legor Khan has such a high place in the hearts of all Kugit people that his biography is as sought after as the knightly novels of Swadia. Moreover, in order to commemorate this leader, the elders of each festival will rehearse the bridge, and the most applauded is the bloody story of the Great Khan who rode into the snowy mountains alone, killed the White Devil King, and hugged the beauty when he was young.
"So," Mu rubbed his forehead, "this knife fight is a drama, alas, what does it mean to have such a messy name?"
"It should have been like this," Almaty also rubbed his forehead as if with a headache.
"Originally?" Mu keenly captured this unlucky word.
"Yes," Almaty nodded, and said helplessly, "Originally, Dabei begging was a drama arranged, but Nayan Aguer didn't think it was very good, and said that since it was a wedding, there should be some activities that matched the wedding, but every time the festival Legor Khan passed on it, it couldn't be without, so the conversation was deadlocked." ”
"And later. Mu Xin was ominous. "Then it was my father's suggestion," Almaty rubbed his temples, and continued, "that he was going to quote the story of Legor's defeat of the White Devil and the return of the White Devil, with me as Legor and Tuan as the concubine." All three of them thought it was good, but it was too late to rehearse the play, so it was simply reduced to a duel. The two sides used wooden knives to fight, but they must go all out and not release water, but after the duel, both sides must laugh and enmity, and not hurt the peace. Dabei beggars also think it's good, and even want to promote it throughout the kingdom. ”
Mu was clear for a while.,Co-authored this is a story of two middle two diseases with the other two middle two diseases together.。。。 However, he suddenly chuckled in his heart and asked, "By the way, your duel opponent is... ”
Almaty grinned and showed a big smile, "There must be you!"
"Damn, I knew you weren't in a good mood!" the merchant slapped Na Yan the shoulder. He understood, this is a duel, this is the last chance before the marriage, the groom and the enemy have revenge, there are grievances and complaints, and at the wedding must sincerely offer blessings to the newlyweds... Hey, honestly, it's a pretty good idea.
"But... What if I defeat you?" Mu Zhuan thought for a moment and asked.
"Needless to say, Legor Khan is not alone, he still has an army of 100,000. So, I can also call a buddy to come up and help. ”
"And what if I get lucky and win again?"
"Of course it's another one," Almaty grinned, "until I know that I can knock you down, or you can take down 100,000 people." Of course, if I win like this, I don't look good. ”
The businessman gasped and beat 100,000 people, just kidding! However, she also understood that after all, it was someone else's wedding, so it was better to save some face for the groom, right?
"Okay, okay, I'll serve you," Mu shook his head helplessly, "It's time for you to win the pretty." ”
"No," Almaty firmly refused, "you have to give it your all, even if you beat me like you did last time." ”
Mu first looked impatient, but after a while, he sighed leisurely, "It's the so-called martial artist's sense of honor again, right, I've seen a lot." ”
"No, it's my own wish. Almaty laughed, "It's been my wish since I was a child to defeat you, and I don't want to leave regrets." ”
"Okay, grant your wishes. Mu sighed and smiled, "When the time comes, don't cry your nose!"
"You are!"
The two of them clasped their hands tightly.
Suddenly, Mu spoke again: "Speaking of which, where is Tu'an, I haven't seen her since I came, and Sister Betiel is gone, so it seems that I didn't even participate in the morning festival." ”
Almaty's eyes immediately became vigilant, as if he was guarding against a wolf, "What do you want to do?"
Seeing this, Mu couldn't cry or laugh, "I just ask, ask... ”
Nayan sighed, and said, "You know, the bride of Kugit was not seen before the wedding, but she did not miss the festival, but she followed my mother and some of her dependents in some tents. ”
"Well, that half-cooked meat... Mu gasped.
"Of course there is, this is the blessing of the ancestors. "Almaty is right.
"This, this... Isn't it not good for your health?"
"You Ryordian people just have a lot of trouble," Almaty glanced at the merchant, "We've been eating meat for hundreds of years, and we haven't seen anything." ”
"Oh, and," Almaty said suddenly, "now that Tuan is my concubine, you should see her less." ”
"Damn, what kind of person are you to me!" Mu said frantically, "I've already made my attitude clear, okay?"
Speaking of this, Na Yan did not give up, and completely lost the attitude of the good brother before, "You are my old enemy!"
Mu is helpless, the boat of friendship... Kugit was not like Swadia in the first place, and there were many rules. So, the wedding hall was quickly prepared and began to welcome guests. As the Khan's loyal dog, Aguer has a very high status in Nayan, and Nayan naturally refused to accept the invitation, and soon, Lana's castle was crowded. The Kugit people were not accustomed to using tables and chairs, so the castle hall was covered with bright fur blankets, intricate banners on the walls, and soft cushions were placed on the carpet so that they could lie on the carpet and enjoy the food on the ladies on their trays while enjoying the wedding performances. The oil lamps were placed in the open space between the blankets, exuding a leisurely brilliance, and countless oil lamps were like stars.
Hawkers, what a luxury.
Of course, the Khan of Saiga also came, and after praising the great deeds of Aguer, he also blended into the crowd and laughed with the guests, and of course, he did not let go of the great merchant Mu, especially after taking a share of his caravan two days ago. This time, it seems that a long-term agreement is still being reached. When business comes, Mu naturally will not refuse. Like a swimming fish, he flexibly shuttled among everyone's faces, and reached a rather promising contract.
With the sound of a pleasant horse-head piano, the venue became quiet, Mu Ye took a glass of wine, hurriedly ended the conversation with Na Yan beside him, and found a cushion in the corner and sat down. Aigna also got rid of a group of noble sons and naturally sat next to Mu.
After all the guests were seated, a curtain was opened, and Tu'an Farewell Concubine, who was dressed in a gorgeous wedding dress, oh no, now it was another concubine, and walked out gracefully, supported by the maid. It's just that Mu felt strange in his heart, yes, this woman is about to marry a wife and become a graceful noblewoman, and she is no longer the little girl who stares at the dinar after her. TODAY'S GIFT ... Mu couldn't help but touch the wooden box she brought, and she didn't know if it was her intention.
The first step in the bride's participation is the dedication. The gift in Kugit customs is very interesting, the value of the gift is only secondary, and the first is the heart of the giver. Therefore, when it comes to gifts, all the guests agree to give only one gift, but they must show their sincerity in the gift, not all kinds of treasures in large bags. In other words, on this occasion, a hand-carved wooden carving of a skimming foot is more likely to win the favor of the owner than a large gold brick.
The first to give gifts, of course, was Saga Khan. The old man presented a battle-hardened horn, which was not valuable, but its symbolism was clearly more valuable than a gift. This horn represents the great military exploits of the Agur family for the Kugit Khanate, and the knife marks and cracks on it indicate that the Khan recognizes the hard work of the Agur family, in other words, he appreciates the loyalty of Agur to him, and once again elevates Aguer's status in Nayan, which is a supreme honor.
Tuan gratefully bowed to the Khan, who nodded in satisfaction and gave up the place of the gift to the next guest.
Later offerings were much more ordinary, with the powerful ones offering precious jewels such as pearls and gemstones, while the weaker ones offered handmade cheese and bacon, and one of the most striking tribes brought a life-size wood carving of Tuan directly from outside the door, which attracted a burst of exclamations from the surrounding guests.
Finally, it was Mu's turn to appear. He got up from his seat, picked up the box beside him, and then stepped forward, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw her wedding dress. Bright red velvet, embellished with gold threads to conceal imperfections, is not the finest material as it was more than a decade ago, but the wedding dress is still very beautiful thanks to the craftsmanship of a good tailor. Mu put the box in Tu'an's hand and smiled, "I hope you still like it." ”
Tuan was stunned, lowered his head, and vaguely smelled a faint fragrance. The carving of the box in his hand is very exquisite, and it seems that there is no carving left by a knife change or mistake. The box itself, under the illumination of the light, glows with a deep purple luster, faintly exuding a tranquil aroma, extremely graceful, and not ordinary at first glance. At this time, that moonlit night, the decadent wall, and the boy holding the velvet seemed to appear in front of her eyes again. It's just that the box in my hand is far more expensive than the previous one, and I believe that the contents will be a surprise.
She suppressed the excitement in her heart and opened the lid of the box, which was not velvet, but a set of well-made palace clothes, one of the more modest Swadia styles. It's just that this simplicity is not its shortcoming, but it brings out the delicacy and softness of the clothing. There is no flaw in the long dress, only a simple and graceful pattern embroidered with gold thread, although it is not gorgeous, but it is more generous and confident. At least in Mu's opinion, this design is very much called Tu'an Farewell Concubine, at least... It's the same Tuan Farewell Concubine from more than ten years ago.
Seeing this palace costume, Tu'an couldn't come back to his senses for a long time. She has become a beautiful woman, and the paranoia and stubbornness of her childhood have long been worn away in the long past, replaced by gradually growing knowledge. She knew that this palace costume was so hard-won, and the velvet without any flaws was definitely a franchise of the Rhodok royal family, and even wealthy businessmen could not buy it directly. Although it is not absent from the market, it is definitely not enough to get such a piece of clothing, but it is definitely not just a little dinar, especially to find an extraordinary tailor who can so harmoniously blend the two seemingly opposite characteristics of low-key and luxurious, which is definitely not small, not to mention that when Mu received the invitation, he was still halfway through, so it can be said that he was not prepared at all. The value of this palace dress may be more valuable than those jewels and gems combined.
Tuan felt some tears flickering in the corners of his eyes, not for this priceless clothing, but for the heart, more than ten years ago, that immature girl, stubbornly little wish, he, remember.
Concubine Bei couldn't help choking, gently wiped away the tears that didn't have time to gush out, and a big smile bloomed on her face, just like a heartless Lori, "Thank you, Mu, I like it so much." ”
Mu smiled slightly, bowed slightly, "If you like it, it's fine" Then he turned his back, waved his hand, and left the concubine directly, just like the last time they met.
