Chapter 177: The twisted melon is not sweet
Li Siye and his entourage embarked on the way home, the green green mountains and pastures spread out from the feet, the peaks of the Karakoram Mountains are jagged, and the top of the snow peaks is like the posture of an independent immortal, distant and unattainable.
Gong Juezan was tied up as a zongzi and rode on a horse, his body swaying from side to side with the bumps of the horse, like a tumbler.
The reins of the horse were held by Tian Zhen from a distance with hemp rope. Zong Lu fell far behind the team without a trace, Li Siye didn't have to worry about him escaping or other premeditations, as long as Gong Juezan was in his hand, this fly would not be able to fly out of the palm of his hand.
In the kidnapping and bondage of Yan and Aranda, the water and rice were not eaten, the meridians of the hands and feet were stagnant, the body and mind were traumatized, and they were too weak to ride alone, which required two or three months of conditioning to recover.
On the way back, they must be protected, and if they take the initiative to ride a horse with their mother, Aranda?
Li Siye immediately sent a hard errand and pointed to a chief and ordered: "Yang Wulong, Aranda is taken care of by you, you ride with her on the same horse, and escort her back to the Green Ridge to guard and capture." Yang Wulong frowned in embarrassment: "Guarding the envoy, I have a mother-in-law, look at me...... I rode a horse and held a lady, what is this like, if my lady knows, she must have stripped me of my skin. ”
"You're still not a man? I'm afraid of the lady! Li Siye raised his finger in hatred and poked him in the air, all the soldiers laughed, and Yang Wulong bowed his head shyly.
He glanced left and right and saw Tian Zhen.
"Tian Zhen, you don't have a lady, you can take care of it." Tian Zhen put her hands on her chest and was about to speak, when she suddenly frowned, stretched out her hand to cover her chest, and crawled on the horse's back with her teeth bared in pain, almost rolling down on her side.
The soldiers rushed to the ground, and hurriedly held him up and asked, "Tian Teamzheng, what's wrong with you!" You seem to be hurt! Tian Zhen frowned painfully, his breath was uneven, his face was originally waxy yellow, but he couldn't see any flaws.
"The day before yesterday, when I was fighting against the Tubo people on the battlefield, I was stabbed in the chest by an enemy gun, and it has not healed, and I didn't expect it to have a seizure now." Li Siye looked down suspiciously, this Tian Zhen closed his eyelids slightly, and he didn't look at him.
He had no choice but to nod helplessly: "Since you are injured, why did you follow me for a hundred miles to pursue Gong Juezan?" Tian Zhen said intermittently: "This injury is not too serious, it is okay to ride a horse and shoot a crossbow, I can take care of myself, but if I have to take care of another sick number, it will not work." Li Siye snorted and looked at the newly recruited Hyoku Banni of the Tang Army: "Kubani, you are only seventeen years old, should you have a lady?" Don't tell me you're hurt too! Kubani blushed and said: "I am indeed not injured, but I already have a lady, although it is not public, but they have lived together, if Suozhu knew that I was carrying other women home, she would definitely be so sad that she left me and went to drill other men's felt tents!" The surrounding soldiers let out a mocking laugh, Li Siye laughed instead of anger, and waved his hand helplessly.
When he turned his gaze to the others, they all bowed their heads and avoided them. Aranda sat weakly on the felt, and Li Siye had no choice but to go up and help her up, and put his own shoulders against her feet, so that she crawled on the horse.
The face of this frail woman was particularly pale, fine beads of sweat condensed on the bridge of her tall nose, and her loose braids were all shaken out, forming long shawl hair, which had a bit of the style of a modern woman in later generations.
Li Siye didn't turn over, but just led the horse on foot. Aranda staggered on her horse, thin and thin, as if a gust of wind could blow her off her horse.
The soldiers followed behind him, and they couldn't help but be a little anxious, but they didn't know whether they were anxious for Li Siye or Aranda.
In the evening, by the river, Li Siye helped Aranda down from the black fat body, she finally regained some sanity and physical strength, and after dismounting, she was able to salute Li Siye: "Thank you Li Zhijun for supporting you all the way, Aranda is grateful." Li Siye had no choice but to return the salute: "No need to thank you......" A bonfire was lit by the river, Li Siye rolled up the sheep felt and let Aranda lie on it, and Yan Shi lay on the other sheep felt, and her son Ruoluo did not know where to run.
Aranda didn't feel the slightest sleep, caressing her long hair to reveal a beautiful side face, and the high bridge of her nose made her face more prominent, with both Western and Eastern features.
Li Siye was disassembling the saddle, but heard Aranda behind him: "Li Yuanjun, I heard that my father wants to marry me to you, what do you think?" He was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that Aranda was weak all the way, and he was strong enough to speak, and when he opened his mouth, he asked about marriage.
It's like an older woman who has been urged to marry on a blind date. Li Siye nodded and said, "Gayan seems to have mentioned it to me from the general, so I asked me to refuse." Aranda looked sideways at her reflection in the river, then raised her chin arrogantly and asked, "Then don't you regret seeing me now?" ”
"Regrets? Why should I regret it? Aranda closed her mouth and twisted her face to the side.
…… Tian Zhen and a few others hid behind a sunny mountain rock, lying on the slope and enjoying themselves, accepting the mint leaves sent by Ruo Luo with peace of mind.
This is the Datang version of chewing gum, which can keep the breath fresh when held in the mouth.
"These two leaves are my father's stock, thank you for creating opportunities for Aranda and Li Shouchuang." The soldiers smiled tacitly, and some people were witty, wanting to take the opportunity to increase the reward: "For a few mint leaves, he will capture and sell Li Shou, in case he will find a future account in the future, but the gains outweigh the losses." Tian Zhen took a sip and said, "Be content, if you don't give you mint leaves, you will still betray him." He leaned out and peeked at Li Siye and Aranda in the distance, and then quickly lay back on the stone slope, spit out the chewed leaves, and said: "If you lose Luo, your father's good intentions may be in vain, and the twisted melon is not sweet, and the two of them have no fate." Ruo Luo nodded, but shook his head again: "I don't want Aranda to marry him." ”…… Li Siye blew the wooden whistle that he had taken out of his arms, and the scattered soldiers ran towards him like a flock of happy sheep.
"It's not too early, let's go now!" Aranda was still on the horse, and Li Siye led the reins of the horse and walked in front.
She looked at his back, and a strange thought flashed in her heart, because this man would not ride with her, but only on foot, slowing down the speed of the procession.
"Envoy Li," Aranda exclaimed sweetly.
"Hmm."
"You get on the horse and sit for a while."
"No need, I'll walk to school"
"Then you come up and ride, and I'll go down and walk."
"No need, you haven't recovered yet." After only a moment, Aranda let out a sobbing and crying sound, and bean-sized tears flowed down her cheeks, and then the sound grew louder and more poignant, like a river of sadness flowing backwards.
The soldiers looked sideways and did not dare to come forward to inquire.
"Why are you crying?" Aranda rubbed his eyes with his hands and sobbed: "The envoy personally pursued thousands of miles and saved Aranda's life, Aranda is grateful for this, but the envoy would rather go alone than ride with me, is Aranda so filthy and so disgusting to you Although I fell into the hands of the enemy and could not protect myself, but the Tibetan thieves approached a little, and I killed myself by biting my tongue!" Aranda is still as white as the snow lotus on the Karakoram Mountains, not as you might think. Li Siye turned back in shock and annoyance, spread his hands and said:
"What kind of person is yours, we Han people have a saying, men and women don't kiss, that's all, why think about it" Aranda wiped her tears and choked up:
"I don't care about a woman, but you are a man with a lot of concerns, can I eat a piece of your meat or can you give me an extra piece of meat when you ride with me" Li Siye was suddenly dumbfounded, and the soldiers snickered behind him.
