Chapter 12 Resentment and resentment

The calm of the autumn days was shattered, and people watched in horror as groups of black-clad soldiers searched every tent, specifically for children, even of slaves. Shu Yu Shirt

A child in a red robe?!

People were shocked and amazed at the same time. Who does not know that red is a forbidden color, and even slaves do not wear that color in Winkol.

People don't know what happened, but they have a vague guess about the fact that the queen suddenly fell ill recently. For a while, rumors abounded, and the most widely circulated version was that the queen had had a miscarriage, and the reason for the queen's miscarriage was because she met a child of unknown origin wearing a red robe, and the child gave her the most taboo snake dragon fruit for pregnant women.

This statement is getting more and more powerful, and some people even describe the child as a demon, the snake dragon fruit is not a wild fruit that can be collected so easily, and red has always been considered by the people of Wuyang to be the color of the devil, so they believe that the child is actually an evil spirit in the mountains.

At this time, troops should not be mobilized, and the royal court should be asked for help from the high priest, who alone can expel evil spirits.

This queen from Wushuang is indeed an unlucky woman!

People were talking about it, feeling sorry for the crown prince who had suffered misfortune before he was born, and at the same time, there were many criticisms of the queen who came to Wushuang, some sympathized with her, some gloated, and even cursed her, and people were panicked for a while.

A young man in black close-fitting armor, in a corner of the slave tent area, grabbed a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy who looked nervous, struggled desperately, kicked and beaten, but could not shake the young man for half a point. The young man smiled slightly, revealing his snow-white teeth, making his handsome face even more charming.

"Boy, if you want to escape from me, I'm afraid you will have to practice for many years!"

"I don't know anything! don't want me to betray my friends!" the boy snorted, pouting his cheeks and not moving.

"You really know!" the young man's eyes lit up, and the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened, "I didn't ask you anything, you said it yourself." ”

Only then did the child realize that he was overly nervous, and he had already revealed his mouth, and he was immediately very annoyed.

"Tell me, what's the name of that young man in the red robe, and what family is he?" the young man suddenly raised his voice, and his eyes were full of coldness.

The young man was taken by his gaze, and his heart was terrified, but he still stubbornly pursed his lips, but a pair of black eyes turned left and right, his gaze wandered, and his heart was already chaotic.

"Speak quickly!" the young man did not relax.

The young man reluctantly opened his mouth and said, "Yes...... My lord, we don't know his name either, but once I heard someone call him Ajag. ”

"Ayag?" the young man couldn't help but frown.

There was wind behind him, striking at his right shoulder, and he instinctively sank his right shoulder, grabbed the attacker's arm with his backhand, and whirled beautifully, while pressing the comer to the ground.

"Ah!" exclaimed, her voice delicate, clearly a woman.

At this time, the young man also saw the comer clearly, and was stunned for a moment. At that moment, the young man turned his head to look behind him again, and the child had taken the opportunity to slip into the tent and disappeared.

The young man snorted and said, "If you can't run, I'll find you." ”

He turned his face to look at the snow kite girl lying on the ground with an embarrassed and aggrieved face, with a shy smile on his face, touching the back of his head in disguise, and muttering: "I told you not to stand behind me, are you okay?"

He stretched out his hand to the snow kite, who glared at him angrily, ignoring his sincere outstretched palm, got up from the ground, rubbed his sore shoulder, pouted, and said, "Ghost Ges, the queen asked me to tell you, she said that you just need to send people to make a constant search posture, and you don't really need to track down the whereabouts and identity of that child." ”

Ghost Gus was a little surprised, and asked rhetorically, "Why? If you hadn't suddenly appeared just now, I would have known the identity of the young man in red, just a little bit." ”

"Who is he?" the snow kite blurted out.

"His name is Ajag. Ghost Gus said, a slight smug look on his face.

"Ayag?" Snow Kite looked blank, "And who the hell is he?"

Ayag means "cloud" in Wuyang language, and is a very old title, often used as a child's milk name. In other words, this name is like a peerless person calling his own children, cats and dogs, purely for the sake of kindness and easy maintenance, among the children of Wuyang, there are countless people who call this name.

Ghost Gus smiled and said, "I was just about to continue asking, but you let people go." ”

Snow Kite glared at him.

"Why doesn't the queen let us really track down the identity and whereabouts of that child, I, the ghost, can vouch for the head, as long as the child is still in Winkol, I will bring him to the queen in three days. ”

Snow Kite sighed and said, "I don't know, the queen said, as long as you know about this matter alone, don't make a noise." By the way, the queen let you go there. ”

"Yes! I'll be right over. ”

The two walked side by side on the road, and Ghost Gus searched his stomach and finally thought of a word.

"Well, the queen is all right......? Is it true?"

Snow Kite frowned and glanced at him, this man was the mysterious and cold-blooded young general of the "Ghost Bow and Wolf Knife"?

"Ghost Gus, can you stop being wordy like your mother?" Snowkite complained.

Then she sighed softly, lowered her voice and said, "Queen she--"

She seemed a little uneasy, leaned into Ghost Gus's ear, and muttered a few words, and Ghost Gus showed a look of surprise.

"Really?!Great!"

"Who?" said Ghostgoth, drawing his cutlass and lunging at the back of a tent beside him. He threw himself into the air, there was not even a figure there, and Ghost Gus furrowed his slender eyebrows slightly, and a cold light of wisdom flashed in his eyes.

Compared with the noise outside, the queen's tent was too deserted, and only Zhuang Meiyan was lying on the bed alone in the tent, which seemed extraordinarily quiet.

Zhuang Meiyan closed her eyes and breathed evenly, in fact, she was just pretending to sleep.

She can't sleep, of course she can't sleep, and the saddest person for something like this can only be herself. She wished that guy would come back soon, but what about when he came back?

This matter is by no means as simple as it seems, Zhuang Meiyan has a premonition about this, and her premonition has also been confirmed a little in the conversation with the Great Witch Doctor the day before yesterday.

That day, she asked the Great Witch Doctor, "Great Witch Doctor, let me ask you, is my current condition really because of eating snake dragon fruit?"

The Great Witch Doctor looked hesitant, and then said something that was a little confusing.

"Queen, the smell of your tent is very good!"

The tents of the nobles and the royal family usually had incense burners with fine incense sticks, and the fragrance permeated the tents throughout the year. He said this sentence as well as not saying it.

Zhuang Meiyan heard the faint sound of footsteps in the room, followed by the crisp sound of iron rubbing, very low, but it was particularly abrupt and clear in the lonely tent. Zhuang Meiyan knew that this was a slave girl who came to replace the incense pieces in the incense burner. Sure enough, after a burst of chatter, the fragrance became more intense and fragrant, apparently because of the new fragrance.

Zhuang Meiyan took a deep breath.

It tastes! Well, it smells good!

A string in her heart was plucked deeply, and in an instant she suddenly understood the meaning of the Great Witch Doctor's words.

"Slow, where are you going?" Zhuang Meiyan sat up without hesitation, supported her body a little weakly, and pointed to the other party's back and shouted softly.

"Queen. The man slowly knelt down and said in a low voice, "Aunt Suna has told us not to disturb the queen's rest, so I want to hurry up outside the tent so as not to disturb your rest." ”

Zhuang Meiyan sneered and said, "What's your name?" ”

The man hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Yes." ”

A cold light flashed, only to hear a "ding", a dagger flashing blue light fell in front of Zhuang Meiyan, Zhuang Meiyan lowered her eyebrows slightly, her expression was calm, and she was not frightened.

The man finally turned around, and it was a woman with clear eyebrows, and she glared at Zhuang Meiyan angrily, but at this time, the two of them were not the only ones staying in the tent. There was a young man beside Zhuang Meiyan, dressed in black soft armor, holding a scimitar in his hand, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The woman frowned slightly, cursed in a low voice, and turned to run towards the tent door.

Ghost Gus didn't mean to come forward to chase, he pouted into a whistle and blew softly, and several black figures immediately flashed at the door of the tent, blocking the woman's way, facing the obviously dangling blade and black bow and arrow, the woman could only slowly retreat.

"Don't kill her!" Zhuang Meiyan said to stop the fall of the Ghost Goose Scimitar.

Then the blade of the ghost came to a halt on the woman's white neck, and he withdrew his weapon very respectfully, and saluted, "Yes!

"I ask you, what did you just add to the incense burner?"

The aroma in the tent is getting stronger and stronger, and I usually smell it, but today I feel that it is particularly strong, and after smelling it for a long time, I have the illusion that I want to vomit.

"Do you think that if you don't say it, no one will know?" Zhuang Meiyan commanded outside the tent: "Suna, take out the incense burner and let the great witch doctor see it." ”

The woman's expression changed slightly, she bit her lip, but remained silent.

Zhuang Meiyan's attitude softened instead, and she looked at the woman, and after a while, she said, "I've seen you." ”

"You are a slave girl who serves Princess Sumya, why did you come to my tent?"

Zhuang Meiyan remembered that night in Princess Sumya's tent, a faithful slave girl begged her to stay away from the princess, so as not to be involved with her, and the stubborn face slowly overlapped with the face in front of her. She sighed softly and asked, "What's your name?"

"Asura. ”

At this time, Suna hurriedly walked in and said a few words in Zhuang Meiyan's ear, Zhuang Meiyan nodded, and then turned her face to look at the woman who claimed to be "Asula".

"Asura, who is your slave who was killed in public by the Queen Mother's executioner that day?"

Anger erupted in Asura's eyes, and she gritted her teeth and said, "She's my sister. ”

Zhuang Meiyan bowed slightly, and said, "I see, Asura, are you resentful of me because of this?"

Asura was slightly stunned, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Yes." ”

"So you're going to hurt my children and let me taste the pain of losing my loved ones. Originally, you had already succeeded, and the young man in red who couldn't find out the history happened to pick the snake dragon fruit for me to eat, which just covered up your crime - you should have stopped there, but unfortunately, you are still not very reassured. ”

"You secretly followed the snow kite, and heard the clues from the conversation between the snow kite and the ghost, so in order to fully fulfill your vicious wishes, you repeated your old tricks and sneaked into my tent, this time you put several times more 'incense tablets' than before, in order to achieve your goal. But you didn't expect that I was already on guard at this time, and everything I did before was just to wait for you to fall into the net. ”

Asura pursed her lips with a stubborn expression, and she expressed her approval of Zhuang Meiyan's speech in a silent manner.

"Do you admit your guilt, Asura!" the other party had already pleaded guilty, but Zhuang Meiyan still persisted.

"Kill me!" Asura erupted, and Ghost Gus gripped the hilt of her knife defensively.

"Is it really that simple? Asura!" Zhuang Meiyan suddenly slapped his hand on the table at the head of the bed, and said sharply: "Then I'll ask you again, where did you, a lowly slave girl, get the secret medicine of the southern country?"

This last sentence seemed to hit Asura's soft underbelly, her lips were about to break, her face became more and more pale, her expression was excited, and her body trembled slightly.
