Chapter 297 [Dream Talk]
After running for a whole day, the two girls were hungry and thirsty, and fortunately found a fruit tree in the mountains, the fruit on this book was green and unripe, and after picking it, they tried to taste it, although it was sour and unpalatable, but it was barely enough to eat. The two girls ate some indiscriminately, found a stream in the mountains and forests, and drank a half-full.
Daphine is the youngest daughter of the Duke of Minas, whether in the family in the past years or later married into the royal family, she is the proud daughter of the sky, when did she suffer such a hardship? Even if she was captured by Governor Hughes, that guy Hughes was also provided with fine clothes and food.
This half-ripe green fruit and a belly of stream water suddenly made Daphany a little unbearable.
Adeline, on the other hand, has a much stronger endurance than Daphany in this regard.
Seeing that Daphany was biting into the fruit and it was difficult to eat, Adeline smiled lightly, "Is it unpalatable?"
Daphne shook her head, but watched Adeline eat with relish, and smiled wryly, "You can endure much more hardship than me." ”
Adeline heard this, but put down what he was holding and sat there with a faint sigh. In those eyes, there was tenderness and longing, and then he shook his head and laughed in a low voice: "What is this food, when I was with that hateful turtle on the wildfire field, when I was very hungry, that turtle almost made me eat roasted goblin meat." ”
Daphne suddenly lost her face: "Roast, roast goblin meat?!"
Daphne hadn't seen a living goblin with her own eyes, but she had heard that goblins were filthy, ugly, and even higher—how could they be eaten as food?
Adeline covered her mouth and smiled: "I didn't really eat it, that turtle caught a goblin as a prisoner, and in order to scare that guy into making it obedient, he pretended to roast it to eat." Oh, by the way, that goblin is the princess of a goblin tribe...... But, hehe, you wouldn't guess it, it's a male goblin!"
As she spoke, Adeline was elated, and while making a comparison, she told the story of how she and Char encountered goblins in the red wilderness and how they caught the "Mr. Princess".
Her eyebrows fluttered, full of interest. Daphany began to listen attentively, but seeing that Adeline said more, her eyes gradually revealed a strong sense of longing, and she couldn't help but sigh softly and looked at Adeline: "Well, you...... You must miss him, huh?"
"I ......" Adeline's face turned red, but she gritted her teeth and said, "That turtle will only bully me, I ...... I don't miss him!...... Moreover...... He's just afraid that he still thinks I'm a man!"
As she spoke, she chattered about the past with Char - of course, on the night of the imperial capital, in that Fengyue place, Char was drunk and confused about the embarrassing thing she did, so she naturally hid it and didn't mention it.
Daphine looked at Adeline with a shy look like a little girl, she was a little girl who fell in love, her eyes were half shy and half affectionate, she had seen too much, but Daphany suddenly sighed faintly.
"What's wrong?" Adeline noticed that Daphany's face suddenly darkened. He whispered, "I...... Am I saying something wrong?"
"Nope. Daphany forced a smile: "It's just that you love that Char so deeply, I am happy for you in my heart." Actually, you can have a man you really love, I am happy for you, and I deeply envy you. ”
Adeline blurted out, "What do you envy me? Don't you have my brother too......"
Speaking of this, Adeline suddenly woke up in his heart, looked at Daphine's face was pale, and her eyes were darkened, so she immediately stopped her mouth, hurriedly went up and hugged Daphany, and said softly: "Ah, sister, it's me who is not good, I am talking nonsense, don't take it to heart." ”
I secretly scolded myself for being confused.
His brother Crown Prince Garcia, although he is Daphany's husband, is ...... What his brother is like, who doesn't know in the imperial capital? My brother doesn't like women, but prefers men. Sister Daphany is such a stunning beauty who captivates the country and the city, but he has no interest in it, and he is just a superficial appearance on weekdays, but in fact, he has no husband and wife affection at all.
Although Daphine is nominally the crown princess, she is actually ...... To put it bluntly, just a poor woman, just a vase used by the royal family to decorate the façade.
Thinking that she is also in her youth, but she married a husband who likes male style, every girl at such an age, who does not yearn for a love? Who does not fantasize about having a lover who cherishes herself?
It's just that Daphany has all the glory and wealth in this world, but she can only wither her youth and watch her years pass away little by little......
The pain and loneliness in this can be imagined!
Adeline is still young after all, although she sympathizes with this sister with the best feelings, but she doesn't know how to comfort her for a while, she just hugs Daphine, and she is in a hurry, but she sheds tears.
Daphine's own heart was already sour, Adeline cried so first, and Daphine could still hold herself in her heart, but instead, Adeline's tears hooked up the sadness in her heart.
The two girls hugged each other and cried bitterly, crying for a long time, before Daphany gradually calmed down, wiped her tears, and smiled softly: "It's all you, saying these words made me cry for a while." ”
As he spoke, he picked up Adelin's face, carefully wiped away the tears from the corners of Adeline's eyes, and said softly: "Okay, you are not young anymore, you have reached the age of falling in love, and you still cry at every turn, such a temperament, I am not afraid that your turtle will annoy you in the future." ”
She looked at Adeline's face carefully, Adeline was originally beautiful and moving (and only the kind of outlier like the turtle would see such a beautiful woman like a flower and jade as a man, or an ugly man, right-the old guy smiled n times...... )。 Looking at Adeline's face like pear blossoms and rain, Daphany smiled lightly, carefully wiped a trace of dust off Adeline's face, and said in a low voice: "Look at you, you have become a beautiful girl, such a beautiful face, I want to come to that turtle, I will definitely love you in the future." ”
Adeline blushed, turned her face slightly, and said shyly, "I...... Sister Daphine, you are really beautiful, in the imperial capital, everyone says that you are the first beauty. ”
Daphany said quietly: "What's the use of no matter how beautiful her face is......"
Adeline saw that Daphine's mood fluctuated again, and quickly said a few other words at random before the matter was diverted.
The two girls rested for the middle of the night, and then continued walking in the woods.
Trekking through the woods and mountain paths is naturally very hard. Especially in the mountains and forests, the terrain is rugged, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and there are occasional rocks and tree roots. Daphine had never suffered much since she was a child, her delicate feet had already blistered, and she staggered when she walked, and finally it was Adeline who took the initiative to carry her forward.
After that, the two girls went around the path in the middle of the mountains for two days, and the next night they finally walked out of the hills and came to the main road.
At this moment, both of them were in tattered clothes, and their faces were covered with dust, like two beggars, but it was okay to cover the beautiful faces of the two girls, and the two walked on the road for a long time, and they did not encounter any greedy for beauty to harass.
Finally, on the evening of this day, I got on a passing carriage.
The carriage was loaded with a cart of firewood and grass, and it was said that it was transported to the front of the Silver Horn City to be sold.
The cart was pulled by a country couple, the husband was a deaf man, and the wife was rough and strong, and she looked like a typical village woman. However, people are kind, and Daphany only says that she is fleeing the war and going to Silverhorn to join her relatives.
The husband and wife were simple villagers, the husband was a woodcutter and the wife was a peasant woman. Seeing that the two were pitiful, they generously let the two of them take a ride for free.
After getting into this carriage, the two girls finally got rid of the hard work of walking, although the carriage was simple, and the horses pulling the carriage were also the kind of shoddy old horses, and when the carriage was running, it was bumpy, and the bones of the people who were straight up and down were about to fall apart.
But at this moment, in the eyes of the two girls, it is already a hundred times stronger than that kind of trekking on foot.
On the third day, we finally arrived at Silverhorn.
This is already the border of Esria, and further north is the county of Sirtan, which has been occupied by the Odins - if you cross Sirtan again, it will be County More!
The two girls were penniless and had no identification. Knowing that Silver Horn City has long been guarded by rebels, where do you dare to enter the city?
Outside the city, he said goodbye to the husband and wife who were driving the car, and then the two discussed it, and simply took a detour from the wilderness, preparing to go around the Silver Horn City and continue on their way.
This Silver Horn is the gateway to the north of Esria County, garrisoned by two flag regiments, and although the rebels and the Odin have reached an alliance, but I heard that in the north, the Odin army in Syltan County, I don't know why, and the rebels of the Corsican Military Region actually fought infighting, and the movement is not small, both sides have invested tens of thousands of troops, fierce battles for many days, and even the Odin people beat the Corsican army across the Rollo River in one go, the war situation has been out of control, and the Odin people even have the intention of taking the opportunity to annex the Corsican Military Region.
These days, the rush of military envoys in and out of the Silver Horn is constantly coming, and the military districts everywhere on the main road are watching this small war in the north.
After all, the Corsican Military District is also a member of the Red Round Table, and the Red Round Table is a great and a bad. Although this is only a nominal covenant, after all, it seems that the Byzantine royal family is immortal, and the members of the Red Round Table are still tied together. If the Odin really annexed the Corsican Military Region, the other Military Districts would inevitably have the same hatred or sorrow for the death of the rabbit and the fox.
There were even some military governors who couldn't hold their breath, so they directly sent a letter to the Chixue Army, asking the Odin to withdraw their troops in the name of "mediation" and maintain the terms of the covenant between the two sides.
But when the war comes to this point, it's not something that the Chixue Army can stop if they want to stop.
Therefore, in Esria County, the army of the Best Military Region, which originally occupied this place, still maintained a face-to-face harmony with the Odin people in the north, but after the war in the north, an army was immediately mobilized to guard Silverhorn City, the gateway to the county, and at the same time, around Silverhorn City, a wide range of parade scouts and cavalry, keeping an eye on the movement in the north.
At this time, how easy is it for two girls to bypass Silver Horn City and go north?
The two girls rushed recklessly, passing around the city from Silver Horn, but on the way they passed through a surrounding village, and met the patrol soldiers who were checking, fortunately the two girls were in tatters and unkempt, and the rebel soldiers only thought that the two were fleeing beggars, and they did not care and let them go.
But after walking through two villages, I encountered two more patrols, and gradually the investigation became stricter.
The two girls became more and more uneasy, and then they simply got together and went into the wilderness and mountains to hide again.
Isn't it easy to walk the road in the mountains and forests? Naturally, we have endured enough hardships by trekking through mountains and rivers. Although there are no rebel patrols in the mountains,
But in the end, the two found that they couldn't find any food.
It was early summer at the moment, and although some wild fruit trees could occasionally be seen in the mountains and forests, both of them were golden branches and jade leaves, so how could they know which fruits could be eaten and which ones could not be eaten? The fruits that I ate indiscriminately a few days ago were just a mistake, and Adeline had only learned a little bit from Char for a few days.
The two had no choice but to find food to satisfy their hunger, but they accidentally ate it and didn't know what they couldn't eat, and that night, the weaker Dafanie fell ill, with a high fever that did not go away, and her face was burned red, and even a little unclear, and she didn't know how much nonsense she said in her sleep.
Adeline was in better health than she was, and could only barely carry Daphine on her back.
During the night, Adeline heard a lot of dreams from Daphine behind her.
And the fantastic content made Adeline even more frightened!
At first, it was just some words of resentment about why her father let her marry into the royal family, but later, when a sentence suddenly came out of Daphine's mouth: "Crown Prince, why did you kill me ......", Adeline was suddenly startled, her feet slipped, and the two of them rolled on the ground together, and when she got up, she found that Daphine's forehead had broken on the stones on the ground, and blood flowed, which made Adeline almost weak in fright. Fortunately, I found a stream of water and carefully rinsed the wound, the wound was not deep, and the bleeding stopped. Adeline was relieved.
