480.Chapter 480: You're Not the Emperor's Woman
The thick black eyebrows of this General Ba furrowed, as if he was pondering something, and the people around him all paid attention to him, and several of them gathered around him and said, "General Ba, what are you thinking?" β
General Ba shook his head, did not speak, but was still pondering, a pair of red eyes looked at the flames in front of him, the fluttering fire reflected his eyes, as if faintly uneasy, the people around him were puzzled, more people came over, and said cautiously: "General Ba, what did you think of?" β
"......" General Ba hesitated for a moment before he said, "When I see him, I always think of someone. β
"Someone, who?"
"Do you remember the Eight Heavenly Kings?"
The people around immediately laughed: "The Eight Heavenly Kings, that is the great hero who gallops across our grassland, who doesn't know." β
General Ba said: "When I see that Huang Tianba, I always think of the Iron Mask King. β
"The Iron Mask?" When the people around heard these three words, they were all slightly shocked, and their faces showed a little respect, and one of the young soldiers said: "I heard that the Iron Mask King is the most mysterious of the Eight Heavenly Kings, always wearing an iron mask, but he is brave in battle, just like the strongest eagle on the grassland. β
"That man, who looks like a girl, how can he compare with the Iron Mask King?"
"That's it, that little white face."
I heard them call Huang Tianba "girl" and "little white face", and I was immediately a little angry, indeed, Huang Tianba's appearance is too handsome compared to these rough grassland men, like an immortal in a painting, especially those amorous eyes, poetic and picturesque, otherwise Pei Yuanchen would not have been so infatuated with him at the beginning, until death, but I know very well that he is a real hero, definitely not the little white face that those people say!
The Ba general sneered and said, "Then you know, why does the Iron Mask King always wear an iron mask? β
"Well, I don't know."
General Ba said: "Because the appearance of the Iron Mask King is also very handsome, and it is also because there are some people like you who make assertions based on their appearance, so he is not convinced, and he wears an iron mask every time he goes to the battlefield." β
"Oh?"
"I see!"
The people around me suddenly realized, and I could hear it, but I didn't expect that there were such people on the grassland, and the general Ba looked at the flames again and muttered: "He gives me the feeling that he is like the Iron Mask King." β
At this time, Butu suddenly said: "I remember that among the Eight Heavenly Kings, it seems that only the Iron Mask King died young, and even his sect has declined. β
"Well, that's good." General Ba nodded: "But it's okay, he also has a younger sister." β
"Where's his sister?"
General Ba said: "At the beginning, the Pei clan went south to conquer, and the clans of the Eight Heavenly Kings gave great support, so they also had an agreement that the emperor of the Pei clan and the imperial concubine of his harem in the future must be the women of the Eight Heavenly Kings family." The imperial concubine of the previous emperor of the Central Plains was the sister of the Iron Mask King. β
"Oh......"
Imperial Concubine? My mind turned - the imperial concubine of the previous emperor, that is, the concubine of the previous emperor, I don't know if it is the biological mother of the current emperor?
However, these were already too far away from me, and I turned my head to look at Butu and said, "Now you can sue me, Yuan Gongzi, who is he?" β
When the people around me heard my words, they all looked at me attentively, and the expressions on everyone's faces were a little strange, and Butu was silent for a moment and said, "I guess you have guessed some too." Yes, Yuan Gongzi didn't tell you the truth, he is the elder brother of your Emperor of the Central Plains, but in fact, he should be the Emperor of the Central Plains. β
"What?" I was stunned.
"He is the real prince!"
The night in the wilderness, accompanied by the moist mist and the chirping of insects and birds, was originally the easiest to fall asleep, but I almost opened my eyes until dawn, and in my mind, in front of my eyes, the scenes of the past flashed over and over again.
Yuan Yichu...... Yuan Gongzi ...... Emperor...... Prince......
What happened during this period was only briefly told me by Butu, but I had already figured out from his language the earth-shattering upheavals.
But what role do I play in this? What role did Nangong Lizhu play? Why did Buttu look at me like that and say to me, "If only the prince could be ruthless, even if he was ruthless"? What did the prince, who was as gentle as a fairy, lose because of his ruthlessness?
As the night receded, and the morning light dewed, I heard the sound of people moving outside in the tent, so I got up and dressed myself, opened the tent and went out, and there were already some soldiers feeding the horses and sharpening their knives.
They looked at me and didn't say much, and I wasn't worried.
The people of the steppe have an upright temperament, and although they are extremely fierce on the battlefield, they will not bully a weak woman.
And I, when I fell to this point, I calmed down, others can't protect me, I can only protect myself, fortunately, Butu arrested me because he saw them arrest Miss Nangong at that time, and they wanted to exchange me for me, and they wouldn't hurt me for the time being.
After a while, Butu also came, he handed me a bowl of porridge, I looked at him a little stunned, he said, "I see that you can't get used to our barbecue, drink this." β
I took the bowl and was about to thank him, when suddenly I heard a commotion from under the mountain road on the side, and the people around me immediately walked up, looked down, and immediately showed a smile of ecstasy on their faces, and said loudly: "Look, the prince is back!" β
"Great, the prince is fine!"
Prince? Rosh?!
I was startled, and hurriedly walked over, and sure enough, I saw a tall man surrounded by several soldiers on the mountain road below, and it was Rosh! The snow-white clothes on his body had been torn apart, half tucked into his belt, revealing his strong upper body, some scars on his strong muscles, and some abrasions on his face, but it did not affect his handsomeness, and he did not look too tired, not like a person who had returned from the brink of life and death.
He's fine, what about Huang Tianba?
Seeing that he had already come up, and many of the soldiers around him had come up to him, and while calling out to the prince, and welcoming him carefully, as soon as Rosh came back he went into his tent, and some people brought hot water and clothes and food in, and I stood outside, and it was more than an hour before he came out of it.
When the people around him saw him, they all saluted, but he ignored anyone, but slowly walked to a prominent rock cliff on the side of the mountain, and stood there with his hands in his hands, the wind blew behind him, lifting his long hair and clothes, and hunting in the wind, he didn't care at all, the focused and rigid gaze like a falcon followed the wind, and kept looking to the south.
What is he looking at?
For some reason, I think he is a little different from before, although I can't tell what has changed, but on his face there seems to be no arrogance that is not in the world, but a little more peaceful. I don't know what happened in the past few days.
I walked slowly: "That'sβthe prince. β
He looked back at me and frowned, "Is that you?" β
I cautiously asked, "I want to ask you, the man who fought with you, how is he?" β
He frowned: "You mean Tian-Huang Tianba?" β
I hurriedly said, "Yes, it's him!" How is he? Alive, right? Are you hurt? β
His brow furrowed even tighter, and he looked at me with some displeasure: "He's still alive." What do you care so much about him? What is your relationship with him? β
When I heard this, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "I, I am his friend." β
"Friends?" He thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Then you must know who Mu Hua is." β
Mu Hua? Huang Tianba's wife.
I looked at him a little strangely, I didn't know how he would know about Mu Hua, and suddenly asked in front of me, could it be that what happened to him and Huang Tianba during the time they fell into the river valley?
"Mu Hua, it's his wifeβuh, it used to be."
"Oh."
Losh's brow had already been twisted into a pimple, and he let go when he heard my words, but he didn't ask anything more, but turned his head to look at the south again, where heaven and earth meet, and faintly could see the shadow of Dongzhou City, but it was too far away for me, too far away......
I just stood behind him and watched with him, and I don't know how long later, he turned to look at me, his face was full of arrogance, and he sneered: "I didn't expect them to arrest you." β
"......" I was silent and didn't speak.
"Hmph, your emperor of the Central Plains is really useless, and he can't even protect his own woman."
My face turned pale.
If I say anything else, maybe I can refute it, but Yuan Yichu - no, it should be Pei Yuanhao, the emperor of the Central Plains, I was captured by his side, if he paid a little attention to me, Butu was not so easy to get his hands on, but unfortunately, he didn't have that "little attention", and I am now trapped in the enemy camp.
Losh looked at me and suddenly sneered again: "Oh, I was wrong, you are not his woman. β
β¦β¦ What?!
I raised my head all of a sudden and looked at him in amazement: "You, what did you say?" β
Luo Shi crossed his arms and looked at me with a bit of ridicule: "No wonder Yuan Xiu said that you have amnesia, you really forgot everything." β
My heart pounded suddenly, glaring at him: "What did you just say, I'm not the emperor's woman?" β
So why, I have a child with him? Why hasn't he sued me for so long?
Luo Shi sneered: "You used to be his woman in the past, but Yuan Xiu has been inquiring about your news, I heard that you have long been abolished by the emperor, and you have been beaten into something, what kind of cold palace, even your salary has been cut, and your life is worse than that of a pig and a dog, and Yuan Xiu is crazy because of this." β
I stood in front of him in shock, completely unconscious, and felt that my mind was blank, only to hear him sneer and say: "So, you are not the emperor's woman at all, you are a person who is not even as good as a palace maid." β
