317: Conflict
The north wind of the grassland became more and more harsh in late autumn, Liu Chu walked alone against the wind and went up the Wangting hill, the wind-curled wind swept her sideburns messy, she stretched out her hand to level it, and the long red brocade deep robe was blown back by the wind.
The king of Liqu in the left valley rode his horse down the hillside, and suddenly heard a sound of beards.
He couldn't help but slow down.
The melody of this piece is melodious, with melancholy and sadness, and the unique low timbre of Hu Ji, which becomes more and more sad. It seems to have come out of the depths of memory, with familiarity, but too far away, a little insignificant. Qu Yu recalled slightly, and suddenly his whole body trembled.
It's "Out of the Stopper".
This is the "Out of the Stopper" hummed by Liu Danru of the Jing Yan clan when he was dying.
He dismounted, let go of his steed, walked freely on the golden meadow, and quietly walked up the hillside. I saw a woman standing on the sharp corner of the hillside with her back to her, holding a mustache in her hand, bowing her head and playing a tune intently. The red and gorgeous robes, with the splendor and gorgeousness dyed by the Han land, will make people's eyes hot in the future.
The song of "Out of the Stopper" is low and dumb, tactful and sad. The lyrics of this song are too sad, although it is beautiful to sing, but it is still too straightforward, and now Liu has abandoned the words and only played the tune, but it is more subtle, twists and turns, and touches people's souls in tactfulness.
Qu Plover stood with his hands in the wind, thinking of the few Han women who appeared in his life.
Liu Danru of the Jing Clan is a lifelong watch for him, the girl like the black spring water will always stop in the depths of his memory, fresh and peaceful, and the passage of time cannot take away her beauty; And the woman whose name was smiling, he didn't know a little about her identity until she left. Once he fulfilled her and left himself, hoping that she would be happy. Many years later, after living in peace with each other, I occasionally recalled that time, and my memories were covered with a veil, with the color of appreciation and a slight regret.
The north wind blew and broke, and Liu picked up the mustache. The tune of "Out of the Stopper" suddenly became agitated.
And, what about the woman in front of you?
Qu Yu raised his head and quietly looked at Liu Zhu not far away.
The woman is tall, with cloud temples and pearls, and the gold threads on the red brocade robe are brilliant and gorgeous. Although the years are deep, it has worn out the freshness and moisture when he just entered the Huns, but the bright colors are becoming more and more aggressive. It is undeniable that Ning Yan's Liu Chu has always been a beautiful woman.
For Liu Chu, he has another feeling.
She doesn't have Liu Danru's purity and kindness. is not as elegant as Zhang Yan, but there is no doubt that because of the common blood relationship, she has some common relationship with those two women. She is like a rose, blooming in the frost of the bitter cold grassland. Bright and aggressive, but with sharp thorns all over his body. He was slightly disgusted, but he couldn't help but be a little attracted to her.
At the end of the song "Out of the Stopper", Liu Chu sighed softly at the grassland below the slope, turned around, and saw the canal plover standing with his back not far away. Slightly taken aback.
The years flow like water, and the once bright and bright lord of Chu in Chang'an City has become the glamorous and silent Ning Yan clan on the grassland, and the young and hot-blooded boy many years ago has gradually become the mature and calm King of Zuogu Li. With a kind of adult vicissitudes.
The two walked slowly along the hillside, Liu picked up the shawl on his shoulder, and smiled with a smile on his face, "The daughters of the Han family on the grassland will sing the song "Out of the Stopper", out of the stopper. It's an unfortunate song. But I wish this song would never be sung for the rest of my life. ”
Those who sing this song are unfortunate people.
Such sadness. If you can't empathize, you won't be truly understood, Qu Yu didn't care, and smiled faintly, "The Yan family has been away from the Han Dynasty for many years, but can you miss your hometown?" ”
Liu Chuliu raised his eyebrows, raised his head and sneered, "Do you think of the Jing Yan clan?" ”
The expression on Qu Yuan's face sank suddenly, and he said in a deep voice, "Ning Yan, there are some things that can't be done indiscriminately, and some things can't be said indiscriminately, before you speak, you should also think clearly." ”
"I've thought it clear enough!" Liu Chu sneered, his teeth struck each other, and he refused to give in an inch, "It's just how big a deal you think it is, there are not hundreds of people in the entire Dragon City who know about this matter, but there are more than a dozen people, and you yourself see it as heavy as the sky, and you don't know if you hide it." ”
Qu Yuan was choked by her, and said stupidly, "It's not good for women to be too cold and hard, you have to learn to be softer to please men." ”
Liu Chu sneered, "Who do I need to please?" Her voice fell silent with a deep bitterness, "You know, I don't want to come to the Huns." ”
The grassland of the grassland is vast, and the blue sky is more and more high, and the white clouds flow in the sky, like rushing streams.
“…… I used to hate a woman very much, and I always felt that it was because of her that I had to be with the Huns. When I first came to the Huns, I always blamed her in my heart. Until a few years ago, I was pregnant with a child," Liu Xuan showed a soft look of memory on his face, and reached out to touch his abdomen,
"Lord, you may never know, the feeling of having a little life growing up in your womb is so beautiful, I feel very happy, and suddenly I figured it out, in fact, everything is fate, and I really can't blame her. I'm very fond of kids. I looked at Shan Yu and said to Shan Yu when I was serving, "
Liu Chu fell into the memory, and his eyes showed a painful look, "I hope this is a daughter, as beautiful as Lili, I will carefully bring her up, teach her, and watch her grow up and marry......" Tears burst out of his eyes, soaking into his white cheeks, "I thought so beautifully, but I finally hadn't been born yet, and when I didn't know his gender, he was gone!" ”
She couldn't help herself crying, Qu Yu looked at her with pity, and soothed her voice, "Ning Yan's festival mourns!" You're still young, and you'll have other children in the future. ”
"Kid?" Liu Chu laughed miserably, "I don't dare to look forward to it anymore!" This feeling of getting and then losing is too painful for me to experience again, so I'd rather not have it in the first place! Qu Plover," she asked, "you say, why?" The struggle of men's politics always has to be borne by women. I don't ask for much, I just want to live in peace, why can't I get it? ”
The canal plover was dumbfounded.
A flying horse galloped from the direction of the royal court, and immediately the Hun rider saw the canal plover from afar, turned down, hurriedly ran to this side, and worshipped in front of the canal plover, "King Guli." Shan Yu summoned the kings of all the tribes to the Dragon Court King Tent to discuss matters. ”
"Deliberations?" Qu Yu was slightly surprised, "Got it." ”
He summoned his love to ride and rolled over. The sunset sun shone brightly, rendering the man's broad back extremely tall, Liu Chuyang looked at the back of Qu Yu in the distance, and frowned:
Over the years, the Xiongnu have spread their prestige, and all the departments of the steppe have surrendered, although there are some trends in the dark, but they are still peaceful on the surface. At this time, Maudun summoned the kings of all the tribes to gather at the royal court. What is it for?
The Great Tent of the Royal Court
The leaders of the Huns gathered in it, whispering to each other, and Mao Dunshan, who was wearing a black dragon head belt, strode in from under the curtain. The kings of the tribes fell silent suddenly. He bowed down to Maudun, "See my lord." ”
"Get up." Maudun sat down on the majestic throne of the Lord, "I have summoned you and others here today to tell you something important. Turning to look at Wu Feng who was standing aside, "Wu Feng, let's talk about it for the kings of the various departments!" ”
Wu Feng stood up from behind. Bow respectfully towards Maudun, "Yes." Fu stood up again, saluted the Hun kings in the tent, and said loudly, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am the envoy of His Royal Highness King Wu of Wu State. My king is willing to form an alliance with the Xiongnu to jointly attack the Han court, and after the matter is completed, he is willing to reward Shan Yu with 800 miles of fertile land outside the pass. ”
The explosive news suddenly ignited the king's tent. The kings of the tribes suddenly became in an uproar,
"That's a great thing!"
"I have been trapped in the grassland all these years, and my beak has faded out of the birds. It's great to be able to go to Han Land and loot! ”
Zuogu Liwang Qu Plover sat behind everyone and looked up. Seeing that each of the kings in the tent was full of jubilation, with excitement about the coming war and greed for the property of the Han land. I can't see a sense of crisis.
He raised his head and said, "I don't agree. "The sound is like ice and snow.
There was a sudden silence in the tent, and everyone took a step back, looking at the Qu Plover who had just spoken, and their eyes were very complicated.
Mao Dun's hand holding the golden dragon head around his waist clenched suddenly, and after a moment he relaxed, and smiled, "Oh? Why did King Zuogu Li say this? ”
Qu Yu stood up and walked a few steps in the king's tent, "Shan Yu, I experienced a great war with the Han Dynasty a few years ago, and I still know a little about this nation. The Han is different from other neighbors of the Xiongnu, it is a behemoth, and they have developed over the years, and it is no longer something that the Xiongnu can bully at will. ”
"Joke," Mao Dun sneered, standing up from the black otter fur throne, with an imposing momentum, "I, the Huns, are like eagles in the sky, and I am not afraid of any enemy. Just a thief, why bother? Back then, Emperor Gao's 300,000 male soldiers, didn't he still hate Bai Deng? It is precisely because the Han land is a great disaster for the Huns that the Huns can not make them strong, and our Hun cavalry is invincible on horses. ”
A wry smile appeared on Qu Yuan's lips, "The Battle of Baideng is indeed the glory of the Xiongnu, but that was decades ago. In these years, the Xiongnu fought in the south and the north, but the Han Dynasty has also been improving. The last time I fought against the Han Dynasty, I already felt that the Han Dynasty was gradually becoming stronger, but the impression of the Han Dynasty by my Huns people still lingered in the past. If you always maintain this attitude, I have a hunch: this expedition to Han will end up in vain. ”
"What do you mean by King Zuo Guli?" Du Kangha stood up and said in a strange manner, "We Huns have grown up on horseback since childhood, and they are all brave and good at fighting. How could he not even beat a white-faced Han man who grew out of the water in the south? In vain, you Qu Yu is called the god of war of the Huns, even if you don't want your own name, Shan Yu is still here, Zuo Tu Qi Wang Ji porridge has also grown in recent years, and has made great achievements on the battlefield, even I, Du Kangha, can also go into battle and kill into the Han land! ”
Qu Yu glanced at the people in the tent, and saw that everyone looked nervous and weird, but no one could really understand and trust, so he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, and said lightly, "I have said all this, if you want to go on the expedition, Qu Yu will not stop it, but this time to conquer the Han, Shuxiong Qubu will not participate!" ”
He got up and strode out from under the curtain that had been raised. There was silence in the tent behind him, and Mao Dunshan sat on the throne, his right hand on the armrest, looking at the direction of Qu Yuan's exit, his eyes were calm, and he couldn't distinguish between joy and anger.
