Chapter 228: Wan Yan Yan's Determination
Xingzhou City, the bustling field is bustling, and the voices are boiling. All kinds of people shuttle among them, and the hawkers shout one after another, and the bargaining voices of buyers are intertwined into a lively market picture.
The sun shines through the clouds, adding warmth and vitality to this important border town.
In the northwest corner of the field, a young woman dressed in a gorgeous costume and dressed as a golden figure is particularly eye-catching.
She has a slender figure, a delicate face, and a heroic spirit between her eyebrows.
At the moment, she was happily walking from stall to stall, picking out the goods she wanted. This woman is the princess of the Jin Kingdom, Wanyan Yan.
Wan Yanyan was followed by a little attendant maid, who looked to be fourteen or fifteen years old, and her appearance was delicate and cute.
She carried the things she had bought in the field in her arms, and as she walked with difficulty, she muttered, "Your Royal Highness the Princess, these things are so heavy, the slave and maid are about to lose their hand." β
Wan Yanyan glanced back at the maid when she heard this, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Xiaolian, are you complaining?" You know, we're going to do something big this time. What is this little thing? β
Xiaolian stuck out her tongue when she heard this, not daring to complain again. She knows the temper of Her Royal Highness the Princess, although she is usually kind and amiable, but once she gets serious, she is the same.
Wan Yanyan continued to walk in front, her eyes scanning the stall from time to time, as if looking for something special.
In fact, she had something else in her heart - she didn't really run away for shopping or play, but to find a Han man she met in Zhending City.
Thinking of this, Wan Yanyan couldn't help but speed up her pace.
She knew that her trip was risky, not only to hide from her brother Wanyan Zonghan's eyes and ears, but also to find an unknown man in the vast sea of people.
But she trusts her instincts and fate, and believes that one day she will find him.
Just as Yan Yan was pondering, a familiar figure suddenly broke into her sightβit was a Han man wearing a green cloth robe and a square scarf, standing in front of a stall not far away, picking things.
Wan Yanyan only felt her heart beating faster, and there seemed to be an inexplicable force driving her towards the man.
She stepped forward and walked briskly towards the man.
When she got closer, she found that the man had a delicate face and an elegant temperament, and he was the person she thought about day and night.
Wan Yanyan only felt a burst of excitement in her heart, as if all the waiting and dedication had been rewarded at this moment.
She took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to walk up to the man, and said with a smile: "This Langjun, don't come to harm?" β
Zhao Yingluo was slightly stunned, she didn't know this woman, but Wan Yanyan's eyebrows revealed an affectionate look, as if there was some kind of special connection between them.
"You know me?"
Wan Yanyan said softly: "I know you, what I am looking for is you." β
Zhao Yingluo was even more puzzled in her heart, she looked at Wan Yanyan carefully, but found that she did not look like an ordinary Jin country woman. Wan Yanyan's temperament is noble and elegant, and there is a heroic spirit between her eyebrows, which makes people can't help but take a few more looks.
"Looking for me? Is there something wrong? Zhao Yingluo asked.
Wan Yanyan smiled slightly and said, "This is not the place to talk, let's talk in another place." β
Zhao Yingluo glanced at the sun, it was noon, and then proposed: "Why don't we go to Drunken Furong to have a hot pot together, the hot pot there is very good." β
A look of surprise flashed in Wan Yanyan's eyes when she heard this, and she nodded and said, "Okay, I also like to eat drunk hibiscus hot pot." β
So, the two went to Drunken Hibiscus together. Yue Fei, as the general who accompanied Zhao Yingluo, followed behind, and he looked at the two women in front of him, always feeling that he was a little redundant. But he also understood that this was a private matter of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and it was inconvenient for him to ask more.
After coming to Drunken Hibiscus, Zhao Yingluo and Wan Yanyan chose a private room to sit down. The hot pot was steaming, and the two chatted while eating, and the atmosphere gradually became harmonious.
During the conversation, Zhao Yingluo learned that Wanyan Yan was actually the sister of Wanyan Zonghan, the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, which made her a little surprised. At the same time, she also felt her emotions for herself from Wan Yanyan's words.
Zhao Yingluo glanced at Yue Fei with a strange expression, and a hint of inquiry flashed in her eyes.
Yue Fei smiled slightly bitterly, his eyes revealed a little helplessness, as if to say: "Your Royal Highness Princess, this is a love debt you have caused yourself, and I am helpless." β
His eyes made Zhao Yingluo understand that the appearance of Wanyan Yanyan, the princess of the Jin Kingdom in front of him, was indeed a bit unexpected by him.
Zhao Yingluo secretly complained in her heart, she didn't expect that she would get into such trouble on a whim.
Wan Yanyan's identity and background are too complicated, which makes her have some headaches.
However, in the face of Wan Yanyan's enthusiasm and expectation, she couldn't refuse ruthlessly.
So, Zhao Yingluo had no choice but to chat with Yan Yan after chatting awkwardly.
Although the two speak the same language, the topics are always a little incompatible.
Wan Yanyan didn't seem to notice Zhao Yingluo's embarrassment and uneasiness. She talked about the scenery and food of Xingzhou City with great interest, as if she knew everything about it well.
Her words revealed her yearning and love for the Great Song Dynasty culture, which made Zhao Yingluo can't help but have a good impression of her.
However, this goodwill did not last long.
When Yan Yan asked her if she could go out to visit the market together tomorrow, Zhao Yingluo suddenly felt a big head.
She hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to make an excuse to shirk it. She pretended to regret and said, "I'm really sorry, I have something important to do tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you to the show." β
When Yan Yan heard this, a look of disappointment flashed in her eyes.
After hastily eating, Zhao Yingluo hurriedly said goodbye to Yan Yan.
She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, as if she had unloaded a heavy burden.
However, when she looked back at Yan Yan, she found that she was standing there alone, her eyes full of loss and helplessness.
Night gradually fell, and the lights of Xingzhou City began to light up.
Zhao Yingluo stood in front of the window, looking at the bustling street scene and the bustling crowd outside the window, but she was at a loss in her heart, and she didn't know how to face this sudden emotional problem.
Just then, a knock on the door interrupted her thoughts.
Zhao Yingluo walked over and opened the door to take a look, only to find that it was Yue Fei standing outside the door.
He looked at Zhao Yingluo with a solemn expression and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, there is something I must tell you. β
Zhao Yingluo motioned for Yue Fei to come into the room and speak, "General Yue, what happened?" β
Yue Fei took a deep breath and said, "I just got the news that Wan Yanyan did not leave Xingzhou City, but stayed in an inn in the city. Moreover, she doesn't seem to have given up on finding you. β
Zhao Yingluo's heart sank when she heard this, she knew that her previous worries were not superfluous.
Wan Yanyan's identity and background are too complicated, if she continues to entangle, I am afraid that she will bring unnecessary trouble to herself and Da Song.
