Chapter 80: The Secret Realm
Gao Yuxiang continued: "The Ula country is relatively close to the Nanzhao country and the Shu land, according to the reason, the Yi people of the Ula country should be the southwest Yi people, but for some reason, they just added a 'less', called the Shaoyi tribe, which is really strange!"
Xue Yun asked, "Don't you know why?"
Gao Yuxiang smiled: "I don't know. You should ask your second cousin about these esoteric questions, he has some research in this area. ”
Xue Yun immediately said: "Then let's not talk about Nanzhao Kingdom, you continue to talk about Ula Kingdom." ”
Gao Yuxiang said: "The country of Ula is located at the foot of the Ula Mountains, shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, there is a country where a woman inherits the throne, although the status of the uncle is very high, but no matter how high it is, it is not as high as the eldest daughter." The most noteworthy thing is that there is a place in the country of Ula that is called a paradise by the outside world, a place of paradise, which is beautiful. ”
Xue Yun said tightly: "Could it be the place you said is more famous than Caiying Valley?"
"That's right, it's the paradise of the Ula country. Gao Yuxiang said: "Every seven years, the peach blossom source will hold a grand flower party, this flower will be different from the Haizhou Hundred Flowers Group, it is a national beauty pageant, the day will be selected from the flower fairy selection of the most beautiful woman, the most beautiful woman will be given the title of "peach blossom fairy" by the female monarch of the Ula country. If a woman from an ordinary family is chosen, this is a great blessing, no matter what her family background is, she will be accepted as a righteous daughter by the female monarch and become a "princess of Ula" who is admired by women all over the country. ”
"If that's the case, wouldn't there be a lot of righteous daughters in the female monarch?" Xue Yun asked.
"There is a difference between a righteous daughter and a biological daughter. The righteous daughter only enjoys the treatment of a princess and has no real power, even if she marries in the future, she must obey the arrangement of the princess. To put it bluntly, this is also a means for the kings of the Ula Kingdom to balance the wealthy families in the country. Gao Yuxiang said: "And it is very interesting that in the country of Ula, men can only marry, not marry, while women can marry and can marry, but it is very rare for women to marry, it can be said that it is rare in a hundred years!"
"Isn't this a typical preference for women over men, it's too different from the customs of our Shu land!" Xue Yun was surprised: "You see, take our Xue family as an example, since we have Hua Lin, my father's smile has increased. ”
"Changbing, I found out that you never call your uncle Aya, you always call him father in a proper manner, how much resentment do you have in your heart?" Gao Yuxiang glanced back at Xue Yun, and a touch of distress flashed in his eyes.
Xue Yun listened, and his heart seemed to be screwed by someone violently, and he almost cried in pain. She raised her chin slightly and said with a smile: "Father is now Ningxiang and Hualin's Aye, not my Aye." Yuxiang, and then said the country of Ulla. ”
Gao Yuxiang sighed lightly, and continued: "I heard that this female monarch only has two daughters, and they are all born like flowers. In this country of Ula, not only the princess is beautiful, but even ordinary women are also beautiful. Many people from the outside world want to marry a woman from the Ula country, but this probability is not high, because the average woman from the country of Ula is not willing to marry far away. In addition, the country of Ula does not allow people to go out on weekdays, let alone outsiders are not allowed to enter, only when the flower fairy festival, the only entrance and exit of the country of Ula - the Peach Blossom Source will be open to the public for seven days. ”
"Seven days? It only opens for seven days every seven years? My God, if there is really a woman from the Ula country who marries outside, won't it take seven years to go home to save her relatives? If you enter the Ula country and miss the opening time of the Peach Blossom Spring, won't it take seven years to come out?" Xue Yun was surprised.
Gao Yuxiang nodded and said, "That's right, your analysis is right." That's why we think the country of Ula is very mysterious. ”
Xue Yun asked again: "Yuxiang, you live so far away in Pingzhou to know the Ula country so well, it's amazing!"
After hearing this, Gao Yuxiang actually "giggled" and said, "How do you know about it? I eavesdropped on it from my brother." ”
Xue Yun was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but smile: "It turns out that Cousin Yugui wants to go!"
Gao Yuxiang said, "That's it." Think about it, how beautiful the woman with the titles of 'Peach Blossom Fairy' and 'Princess Ura' is! For a young man like my brother who doesn't want to be motivated, isn't looking at beautiful women his current serious business? If it weren't for A-Niang Aye's close attention, Gao Yugui wouldn't have sneaked away a long time ago! Of course, the most important point is that the Peach Blossom Land is only open to the outside world once every seven years, and it's useless for him to go, hahaha!"
Xue Yun looked at Gao Yuxiang's gloating appearance, raised his hand and slapped her, and said with a smile: "I really can't understand the way you get along with Cousin Yugui, they are hurting each other every day. ”
Gao Yuxiang's face was full of disapproval, and said: "He, you have to cherish me as a sister." ”
Xue Yun said: "You have belittled him like this all day long, if I were cousin Yugui, I would like you to marry him quickly." ”
After listening to Xue Yun's words, Gao Yuxiang sighed for no reason: "Changbing, in fact, I envy the women of the Ula country. You see, they can marry the man they like as they want, or they can marry the man they like, but what about us? We must be ordered by our parents, and if our parents don't agree, even if we like it, it's useless. Many women marry people who have lived in plain life! Where do you say that such a marriage cares about the happiness of our women?"
After hearing this, Xue Yun smiled and said, "Then do you think about the men of the Ula country, is the situation the same as that of the women of our Shu land?"
Gao Yuxiang was reminded by Xue Yun, pondered for a moment, and said, "That's really the case." Changbing, I really look forward to when we will be able to be free to be with the man or woman we love without any interference!"
"Who knows?" Xue Yun smiled and asked again: "Yuxiang, there is one thing I don't understand, you said that the men of the Ula Kingdom can only marry but not marry, and their women can not only marry, but also marry." Excuse me, if this man can't marry, how can a woman marry?"
"Who said you have to marry a man?" Gao Yuxiang glanced at Xue Yun and said slowly. However, Gao Yuxiang immediately realized that something was wrong after saying this, and quickly changed his words: "Who knows what they mean by this?"
"But what you said just now!, why?" Xue Yun still persistently asked.
Gao Yuxiang patted Xue Yun's head and teased: "Thinking too much, it hurts your brain!"
After Xue Yun heard this, she thought it was Gao Yuxiang's concern, and after thinking about it carefully, she found that Gao Yuxiang was ridiculing her that she was not talented and virtuous, so she immediately grabbed Gao Yuxiang's arm, pretending to be "vicious", and said, "Yuxiang, you dare to entertain me!"
Gao Yuxiang was twisted by Xue Yun's arm and screamed: "Chang Bing, Chang Bing spares his life, I won't say it!"
