2345 Thunderbolt (11)
Sky Wolf Mansion, the inner courtyard of the Imperial Governor's Mansion in the center of the tic-tac-toe street, the water outlet where the rain continues to pour in, the circular water fountain in the courtyard formed a gushing, like a large splash of water blooming, walked up to the second floor, pushed the door open, Yue Xin'er's eyes were unconsciously attracted by the woman leaning on the windowsill in the room,
In his hand, he had bought a copy of "Wenhualu Jiyu" from a merchant, his eyes were bright and gentle, his long black hair was coiled into a cloud bun, his shirt was carefully cut in vermilion silk, his wide collar was like a lily petal and towering open, it looked noble and graceful, it was embroidered with cloud-like patterns, the exquisite placket reflected the snow-white neck, and the lower body was a long emerald skirt dragging on the velvet carpet.
The whole person sat there, like a fairy out of the dust, and outside the windowsill, the rain flew away, just like the person in the painting
The same piece of clothing, worn on herself, is really different from wearing on this woman, Yue Xin'er sighed secretly, thinking of this woman's incomparably noble bloodline, Yue Xin'er unconsciously felt a faint sadness, the Yue family migrated before the Dijing catastrophe, so for that catastrophe, it was just heard,
But the whole woman in front of her was a witness to the catastrophe, as the most noble princess of the empire, comparable to the bright moon in the sky, she was soaked in the sea of corpses and blood, in those bright moonlight eyes, I was afraid that what I had ever seen was the most cruel hell I had ever seen, and the fate of being pushed around like a cargo was finally settled in this foreign land thousands of miles away, "Am I shameless? shouted in front of so many people to marry him." As a result, she was ruthlessly rejected!" the woman in front of the window raised her head, her eyes as bright and clear as water, and there was a hint of trilling in her tone
"Your Royal Highness the princess can rest assured. There are not many people in the empire who can understand the Chinese language, and even if they really leak something, no one dares to say it!" Yue Xin'er put down the food box in her hand a little helplessly, and Princess Mingyue broke into the imperial tent for the emperor alone, shouting about marrying the emperor of the Falcon Empire, although there were very few people in the imperial barracks who could understand the Chinese language, but there was one outside the tent. He was almost frightened on the spot, that was his father, the general affairs officer of the Imperial Yueshan Province who had just escorted the military rations to the imperial military camp that day. Yue Shan, according to his father, the scene at that time was really imminent, but the emperor was not angry. Just called the guards in the imperial Chinese. Handed over this woman to his father and brought back to the Sky Wolf Mansion, no one knew what was going on in the tent, only his father knew something, "But he understands, I know!
Princess Mingyue gritted her teeth and whispered, her face flushed slightly, remembering the scene of that day, even if she had calmed down. I also felt a sense of annoyance that I couldn't hide, and I was also the princess of the Central Biya Empire. A first-class imperial nobleman, the other party clearly knew the Chinese language but gave an order in words he didn't understand, and then he was escorted here "He is the emperor, I heard that there are ten official wives alone, lovers or something, and I don't know how many, such a flowery man is not suitable for Her Royal Highness the Princess"
Yue Xin'er said with a wry smile, her father let him serve Her Royal Highness the princess of Zhongbia, which seems a little unreasonable, but a sentence that her father secretly told Yue Xin'er didn't dare to have any ideas, the emperor wanted to let Her Royal Highness the princess escape, but this highness herself didn't have the slightest intention of running, if you can persuade her, it will definitely be a great achievement. "Ten wives are nothing!"
Speaking of this, Princess Mingyue smiled instead, what is a woman, a royal woman, she has long looked down on it, closed the Wenhualu in her hand, and said very disapprovingly" I grew up in the palace since I was a child, and I have seen a lot of this kind of thing, the prince of the Son of Heaven royal family, which one is not a group of wives and concubines in the family, one is six concubines, and eighteen concubines, that is, my brother, in addition to the queen, there are eleven concubines alone, and there are not one hundred or eighty other concubines with names, not to mention those female officials and maids, all counted, three or four thousand is not too much, the house of the Son of Heaven, even if there are three thousand beauties in the harem, it is not a three-year round of concubine selection, that person is also the emperor, and it can be regarded as the family of the Son of Heaven, only ten women, it is too stingy!“
Princess Mingyue's delicate eyebrows raised slightly, her voice paused, as if she had thought of something, her eyes glanced at the stunned Yue Xin'er, and asked in a hesitant and low voice, "No, it's the queen who is too strong, so she ......" "I heard that the empire has no queen, only ten princesses" Yue Xin'er shook her head, and subconsciously said that she had been frightened by the attitude of this Princess Mingyue, the emperor sat in the harem with three thousand beauties, this is a folk rumor, but to hear the emperor's own sister also say the same, that's another matter, the emperor of Zhongbia chooses a concubine once every three years, this year is exactly the third year, if he is still in Zhongbia, the Yue family is also a three-grade martial artist, how can he not escape this concubine, once he enters the palace, in the catastrophe of the imperial capital, even a character like Princess Mingyue is still like duckweed in troubled times, and it is unimaginable how a little person like himself will end
Yue Xin'er, who sighed to herself, didn't notice it at all, as soon as she said this, Princess Mingyue's eyes on the other side lit up, and Princess Mingyue's hand clenched under the table, "There is no queen?" "There is indeed no queen, but each of the ten princesses is not an ordinary person!" Yue Xin'er said, women's fanatical love for gossip is common, once they find a common topic, the distance will be shortened, although Yue Xin'er has not been to the long wall, but she is also the daughter of the general affairs officer of the province on the imperial side, and she also knows a little about the empire.
As a girl who has not yet married, the half-hung imperial Chinese, there are few people who can find chats on weekdays, and now when I meet one, or the most noble princess in Central Bia, naturally she will confide in everything, know anything, say anything, such as ten imperial princesses except for two or three obscure, most of them are real princesses, and even queen-level characters with tens of thousands of soldiers
"Queen?"
Princess Mingyue twisted her eyebrows. secretly thought that Yue Xin'er was exaggerating, concubine and queen are two different concepts, and the concubine is the emperor's wife. Although there is a certain amount of power, it is attached to the emperor, and the queen represents a certain degree of autonomy, and may even have her own land and army.
Princess Mingyue doesn't believe that if she really has such authority in her hands, who would be willing to become a man's appendage!
Seeing Princess Mingyue, she didn't believe it. Yue Xin'er hurriedly said, "For example, there is a princess in the Heavenly Wolf Mansion now, Princess Rui Tang Tingna, who is the eldest princess of the Dongting people. Tens of thousands of Dongting iron horsemen under his command are invincible and have killed countless people" "When the Heavenly Wolf Mansion was fighting, I heard that the princess's horse hooves were soaked in blood. Remain calm. But this is such a woman, when she saw the emperor, she didn't even dare to take a breath, the emperor said that she wanted her to stay in the Heavenly Wolf Mansion, so she stayed obediently, and she didn't even go out of the gate of the Heavenly Wolf Mansion, but she could be heard singing a very sad song at night, and I heard that it was a bad battle some time ago. Many people died, and the eldest princess made a vow to pray to heaven! Don't look at the wilderness of the northwest for more than a thousand miles. How vast, in fact, for the entire Falcon Empire, it is just a remote corner, only when you enter the long wall, you can see the sea, go down the sea road, and everywhere you see is the territory of the empire, where the real empire is!"
Yue Xin'er's eyes flickered, and she was full of memories in an instant, a few months ago, at the annual meeting of the emperor, she had followed Yue Shan into the long wall, and only then did she really read the true face of the empire, the vast and boundless land, the densely planted various crops, the spacious main road that made people have to sigh, the caravans were endless, the city stood next to each other, and it extended to the megacity of hundreds of thousands of people, the flow of people was like a tide, the prosperity of the imperial capital was coming, and the central and bia imperial capital may exceed in terms of population, but when it comes to the commercial atmosphere, the dazzling shops are pù, the white sails at the port are magnificent, and the imperial capital of Central Biya seems to be a little more extravagant,
Not to mention the breath of the Red Imperial Palace, which vividly embodies the fierceness of the entire empire
In the conference room of the Ministry of Military Affairs, Yue Xin'er stared at the whole map of the empire as an ornament, which was almost a super-large territory spanning two continents, and saw that the Gallic Empire, which had been fighting against Central Bia for a hundred years, was not even a third of the top, Yue Xin'er's mouth did not close for a long time, and she was completely shocked by the territory of the empire, this is definitely the largest territory so far, this is definitely the most powerful empire in history!"I don't believe it, is the empire bigger than my territory in Central Bia!"
Listen and listen, Princess Mingyue's temper as a member of the Zhongbia royal family is on the table, Danfeng's eyes are full of bloodshots, although she knows that the empire is strong, but it is only limited to military affairs, and she knows that the grassland people can't win the empire, but when it comes to the size of the territory and the prosperity of the country, Princess Mingyue doesn't believe that the barbarians of the Western Kingdom can compete with the Central Beya Empire!
Yue Xin'er didn't argue, she rolled her eyes, in the past six months after entering the empire, she has already been surprised, Zhongbia may be very prosperous, but it is definitely not the real world center, if there is really a world center, it must be the Falcon Empire, when you really open your eyes to see the world, you will find how wrong your previous views are
"The Gallic Empire, which once had millions of troops, should be no stranger to the princess, right?"
"Although I don't care about military matters, I naturally know about the hundred years of conquest between Central Bia and Gaul!" Princess Mingyue nodded with a gloomy face, when the Gallic Empire fell, she was still in the imperial capital of Central Bia, although the details are not very clear, but I still feel a little emotional about the fall of this overlord of the Western Continent,
At that time, she didn't understand the cruelty of war, but she just felt that a powerful country with a strength of one million troops was inexplicably destroyed in this way, which was so incredible, and after experiencing the catastrophe of the imperial capital, she deeply realized that the war of millions of corpses was a tragic thing for a country! The world of corpses and mountains and sea of blood was incomprehensible to herself at that time
"It is the empire that destroys Gaul!"
A wry smile appeared at the corner of Yue Xin'er's mouth, she could clearly see that the stubborn princess's face suddenly turned pale, and she felt a trace of unknown happiness in her heart,
When I first knew, I probably had this expression, but I was still stupidly pointing to the north of the huge map, and in a very lame imperial language, curiously asking how far this place was from the Gallic Empire?
"It only took three years for the empire to destroy Gaul! In the next two years, it destroyed the southern Gangfei Empire, which was similar to the territory of Gaul, and just conquered Central Europe and Barrow last year, defeating 500,000 Huns, and in Feshan, the emperor personally killed 300,000 Feshans, and now half of the entire Western Continent is the empire" "And the wilderness where we are now is just an arc at the top of this continent!"
Yue Xin'er decided to give Her Royal Highness the princess a good science popularization of basic knowledge, and didn't care whether Princess Mingyue's eyes were about to burst open, but she just said very seriously, "So don't ask who is bigger in Zhongbia or the empire! If it really talks about strength, if the empire really wants to start a war against Zhongbia, it may not take three years!" "You ......"
Princess Mingyue's long skirt was fluttering, her chest was short of breath, she was obviously angry to the extreme, her eyes were angry, her hands were clenched, and the strong cyan veins were bulging, it was not the Zhongbia people who said this, but the imperial people, even if she risked death, she would slap it over,
"I know that in the princess's heart, I, my father, may not have a good impression, we are from Central Bia, but we have invested in the empire, in Central Bia, this is called betraying our ancestors!" Yue Xin'er's voice paused, and there was a hint of coldness on her beautiful face. But compared with the current situation of the princess, my father's behavior of clinging to the empire is not so unacceptable, after all, I have fought desperately, at least my father has saved me and the family, and that country can't even protect its own women, as the emperor of Zhongbia, but he has abandoned hundreds of thousands of people in the imperial capital and become the soul of the enemy's horses, what an irony!"
At this moment, a loud horn sounded from outside, and then there was a continuous horn relay, like a wave of air drums, and immediately, the entire Heavenly Wolf Mansion was like this, and the rain in the sky seemed to become silent and overpowering the city
"It's!"
Yue Xin'er Huo Ran stood up, and looked sharply at the house on the right side of the Heavenly Wolf Mansion that had been closed, which was the place where the horn first sounded, the residence of the princess of Rui Tang Ting, the door that had never been opened, opened, and Rui Tang Tingna, dressed in a fiery red suit, came out, ignoring the wind and rain that was drifting, like a fire cloud rushing into the white rain curtain, lighting up the vastness, and hundreds of grassland cavalry followed,
Outside the Sky Wolf Mansion, a team of black appeared in the distance, the military flag rolled, the iron armor was cold, even if it was far away, it could be cold to people's hearts, under the stunned eyes of Yue Xin'er and Princess Mingyue, countless grassland cavalry began to dismount outside the Sky Wolf Mansion,
Everywhere the red clouds passed, the steppe people knelt down on one knee like a tidal wave,
"In this world, there are really women who hold power and are willing to become men's appendages......" Princess Mingyue muttered in a low voice, and then the entire Heavenly Wolf Mansion heard a row of voices that shook the ground all day long,
"Long live the Khan, long live the princess!" Countless black cavalry spread out like a huge fan, revealing the man in the middle,
The black hair is so unique in the distance, and the horse is parked on the earth, like the most powerful lord of heaven and earth! (To be continued......
