01
Half a day had gone by for the guard of honor of the marriage ceremony, and even the people who watched the excitement gradually disappeared after leaving the pass. At this time, there were only a few sparse footsteps and horse hoofs outside the sedan chair.
With a flick of his wrist like a white plum in winter, the curtain of the car window was lifted.The dark night is like satin, only a thin crescent moon hangs high in the sky, giving off a thin and cold light.
The moon outside Guanwai is also the hometown moon. The beauty in the sedan chair only looked up at the moon, then put down the gauze curtain, and never looked back at the way she came.
Lin Maomei doesn't have the slightest nostalgia for the place where she grew up, but it's just a cage that tends to be popular.The children in the palace understand people's hearts earlier than those outside. In the past 17 years, he has seen all the cruelty of the world, and all the warmth comes only from his mother, concubine and only sister.
His mother and concubine were not favored and had little background, so Zhou Quan had tried her best to protect him and his younger sister. She died of illness within a year, and her youngest daughter was sent away to marry and get married.
That Hakata is a remote tribe, Lin would never allow his own sister to be a pawn for the man with more than [-] people to consolidate the regime, and ruin his life just like that.
He put down the gauze curtain, if everything goes well, the personal guards must have escorted Qiaomei to board the fishing boat heading south.At least they parted on such a day when the new moon was out, and the dim moonlight could protect her a bit.
Thinking of his sister, Lin's stern face stretched two points. Under the red hijab, Lin lowered his head and smiled quietly.
Under the same starry sky, the distant prairie is extremely lively. Add another bonfire, and the night will be red and bright. To be full.
From today onwards, the joy of welcoming the bride will continue until fifteen days later when the princess of the Central Plains arrives for the big wedding.
People around the bonfire were playing, singing and laughing, and those who were too drunk to stand up were yelling with their arms crossed.Baba Zenzhi also smiled when he saw their happy looks, but he would not refuse anyone who came to toast, and everyone who had a drink counted as one.
As their king, Ma Chang was naturally happy to marry the princess of the Central Plains.Their Hakata tribe was fought down from horseback by their ancestors. They have never been afraid of war, but they also know the value of peace.If the two countries have good relations, there will be fewer wars. His people can live and reproduce better. Children can fall and run on the grassland and grow up, and the elderly don't have to worry about being scared.
As for the marriage itself, he was not very happy about marrying a stranger as a princess, and certainly he did not have much resentment.There is no sweetheart in the racecourse, and the princess is just a girl, who eats and drinks well.However, people from the Central Plains are thinner and more delicate, and their arrangements need to be more elaborate.
There are two things to say about being able to come and go everywhere. First of all, this is not a girl.The closer he was to that tribe, the more flustered Lin became.
The road to marriage is very long, and it's not that there is no chance for him to escape along the way. After all, no one knows that under the wedding robe is their little leopard-like sixth prince.It's just that Lin Duo pretended to be one day, and the day after the incident happened, Qiaomei could escape farther and be safer.
Anyway, staying in that cage, Lin is just a victim of the power struggle, it is better to let him replace Qiaomei, at least one of them can be free.When they separated, he coaxed her to leave, and he also sincerely promised her that he would find a way to survive and then go find her.But Lin also knew that the future was bleak, and most likely there was no day of reunion.
Although he had already prepared for his death, Lin was still nervous and afraid seeing that it would be here in two days.
The road became more and more deserted, and there were no houses to be seen. The grasslands stretched as far as the eye could see. Sometimes you could hear horses galloping by, and sometimes you could hear distant hawks calling. If you escaped, there would be nowhere to hide.I don't know what the tribe in this scary place is like. The barbaric leader executed him in a fit of anger. If he became angry... I heard that there are also cannibals in the tribe in the backing mountain...
Lin should think of a countermeasure quickly, but he can't help himself and thinks wildly, scaring himself to death.He hurriedly touched the outside of his right leg, which he always did in the past few days. If he was afraid, he would touch the dagger pinned to his leg through his skirt, so that he could feel a little more at ease.
Otherwise, let's run away at night, Lin Xin thought, just tonight, the team has been tired and slack in the past few days, and tomorrow night will be the last night, I'm afraid they will be vigilant... Just as I was thinking, I suddenly heard the noise of people outside the sedan chair When they got up, even the bearers chatted happily.
Lin's intuition was not good, his heart was beating non-stop, his palms were wet, he quietly lifted the gauze curtain and looked out, only to see that the front was straight in the direction they were going, and the junction between the green grass and the blue sky was black and crowded with people.They were all riding on tall horses. It was such a big battle that even the rising light of the sky was covered.
That barbaric leader must be a scumbag, he couldn't wait for two days, so he came to meet him in advance!
