I chased General Shen for three years, and even my maid was with his bodyguard, but he still didn’t respond at all.
Shen Yao told me coldly, “Princess, please respect yourself.”
“I’m not heavy.” I blinked at him.
But I couldn’t cover his heart with everything. Princess Huan of
the Western Regions vs General Gao Leng of the Tang Dynasty, chasing his wife at the crematorium!
I am a princess who is not good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. That’s what Shen Dahe, Shen Yao
‘s bodyguard, told me. He was very embarrassed to scratch his head, and very guilty to look at my side of the maid Xiaolan, the fifty-third time to block me outside Shen Yao’s mansion.
Just the incorruptible Shen Dahe, has no confidence, he trembled, trying to hide his hand behind his back.
Sure enough, Xiaolan angrily took away the food box he wanted to hide. Shen Dahe looked at Xiaolan reluctantly and looked at the food box in her hand, almost without crying.
I looked at them and couldn’t help sighing in my heart. For
three years, I have been chasing Shen Yao for three years. Even Xiaolan and Shen Dahe have been in love for a long time because of my perennial squatting. Shen Yao still doesn’t like me. In fact, he barely even spoke to me.
So I had to ask Shen Dahe. Shen Dahe is a Han Chinese, a Han Chinese who is most familiar with Shen Yao, or a Han Chinese who likes Xiaolan very much, he may know what the problem is.
Thus, there is the above answer.
Although I can’t do these things, I can dance the most difficult dances, sing the most beautiful songs, play the most touching songs, and tame the strongest horses. I think, one for one, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, singing and dancing, music horse, here, just right.
But Shen Dahe did not hesitate to say, “Princess, forget it, the general really doesn’t like you.”. Before
he had finished the last word, Xiaolan was so angry that she gave the food box to the guard by force, then dragged my hand and turned away.
I looked back at Shen Dahe. The burly and fierce people of the Central Plains were watching our backs desolately. Their arms were still holding tightly the food boxes snatched from the hands of the small guards.
Well, I’m sorry for him. He quarreled with Xiaolan again.
(2)
My name is Long Anasha, and I am the princess of Yanqi.
Father said, I am the pearl of Yanqi, the most magnificent ruby in the whole Western Regions. Mother handed me a piece of honeydew melon and said with a smile that I was the most beautiful wild rose in the oasis, the brightest red and blue flower in Yanqi, and no one would not like her dearest Anasha.
I miss them.
But Yanqi was eight hundred Li away from the Anxi Frontier Command, and every time Alan and I had to ride camels for more than half a month to get there. I haven’t seen Shen Yao this time, and I don’t want to go home now.
I lay listlessly by the window of the inn, looking at the distant moon. The first time
I saw Shen Yao, it was also such a bright moonlight night.
When I was just sixteen years old, my elder sister came back from Qiuci and said she would give me the most unforgettable birthday. So she took the second elder sister, the third elder brother, the fifth younger brother and me, and a group of people swayed from Yanqi to the Tang Dynasty.
Had it not been for the fact that the elder sister found the spy in Qiuci when she was shopping and quickly pulled us to the next place, I would have been moved to tears by her love for me. Seeing that she couldn’t hide it, the
elder sister told us with a cheeky smile that she had a big quarrel with the big prince of Qiuci, that is, my brother-in-law. She was so angry that she ran out.
“Little Si, actually, I quarreled with him just by the way. Wayan mainly wanted to celebrate your birthday.”
I pulled the corners of my mouth to show that I believed her evil.
The elder sister also said that the spies from Qiuci were all looking for her. I believe
this. After all, who dares to come to the Tang Dynasty to assassinate the intelligence? Do you still want the years to be quiet. Oh, except for the fierce Turks.
But Datang is really fun! A lot of fun, a lot of delicious food, and a lot of tricks I’ve never seen before.
As a result, several of us who had never seen the world magnanimously said to the elder sister, “Brothers and sisters, we will not pursue, but elder sister, you are too bad, why not bring us to Datang earlier, this time we must play enough before going back.”.
At that time, we were still too young to understand what kind of deep feeling the elder sister’s eyes were full of. The consequence of
not reading was that in less than a few days we were taken back by the emissaries sent by our father and brother-in-law, as well as the guards of the Anxi Frontier Command.
I saw Shen Yao at that time. He was dressed in silver armor, with a sword hanging from his thin waist, and his complexion was slightly dark from years of exposure to the sun and wind. He rode majestically on a purplish red horse and led a well-trained guard towards us.
He is the most handsome young man I have ever seen, and everything is perfect except for his lack of height. Perfect, when the third brother and the fifth brother were ready to pull me to run, I “snapped” their hands off.
So until now, the fifth brother, who still likes to go to the house every other day to uncover the tiles, will still nag in my ear, saying that when he thinks of the strength when I hit him, he decides that the elder sister can only rank second, and let me win the first place.
Yes, I almost forgot that our location was sent to my father by the elder sister quietly. Although she solemnly said that she was afraid of my father and mother, we agreed that she missed her brother-in-law. Because when she said goodbye to us the next day, she was so anxious that she missed the fifth brother who was waiting in line for a hug.
At that time, the fifth brother was still holding up his hand in a daze, and he saw her speeding up and riding the dust. The ground is out of sight.
As for the news that the messenger of Qiuci had not run as fast as she had, so that he had been left behind for two or three days, it was what we heard from our little nephew later.
In a word, that willful and reckless incident made me know Shen Yao. It was probably because my father handed urgent documents to Tian Khan and Anxi Duhu respectively that Shen Yao found us so quickly and escorted us back to Yanqi.
Although my father severely punished us afterwards, I didn’t feel sad at all. Because when I think of him, I think of the cheese cherries I ate in Suzhou, which are very fragrant and sweet.
(3)
In order to pursue Shen Yao, I have done many things. Not to mention, anyway, none of them succeeded. My father has never been happy about
my pursuit of Shen Yao. He always said that the most regrettable thing in his life was that he listened to his brother-in-law’s sweet words and married his big heart to such an unreachable place.
I looked at the map hanging on the wall of the palace, moved over quietly, and tactfully
blocked Chang’an, Shen Yao’s hometown, with my head.
Mother was quite supportive of me, and said that she had never seen such a handsome young
man in Yanqi. She thought about it again and said that she had never seen him even in the Western Regions. But when I had wasted the first
two years without any progress, my mother began to ask me to go on blind dates.
Well, I was upset when it came to this. Recently, my mother ignored me again, because I once again dove
on the man she had taken the trouble to introduce to me.
I heard that girls in the Tang Dynasty usually get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen. In fact, we will get married earlier in the Western Regions
. In the past, our parents spoiled our sisters and were willing to let our daughters
stay with them for two more years.
But it was a little too late to get married at nineteen.
Alas, so how can I make Shen Yao like me and give birth to a monkey with me?
While I was thinking deeply about this question, I heard a strange and regular
dog barking outside the window.
It was Shen Dahe’s secret signal for Xiaolan to go out and meet.
I don’t understand. Is it so hard to knock on the door? I’m not going to hold someone up and not let you two go on
a date.
Xiaolan was still angry about what had happened in the afternoon and sat angrily and refused to move. I pushed
her, and she reluctantly got up and went out.
I sat back at the window and watched Shen Dahe, dressed in fancy clothes, pull and pull with Xiaolan with a smile for a long time, and finally took him away. He was probably in a good mood, strutting like a colorful rooster.
It’s so sweet. I want to fall in love, too.
Xiaolan is a Han Chinese name. In fact, her name is Ranchema. Shen Dahe went out of his way to ask their master book and gave him the name. He also got a picture of orchids, pointing to say, this is the orchid, noble and elegant, is the most beautiful flower in the hearts of the Han people. Holding the painting in her arms
, Xiaolan was moved to tears and announced that she would never be called Ranchema again. She was Xiaolan, a beautiful flower of the Central Plains.
I think it’s good. Anyway, the person who named her is an old goat who bullies little girls. It’s better not to.
Hey, I’m sour again. I also want Han names, but Shen Dahe said that Han people only give their wives names, so I can only go to Shen Yao.
On that occasion, I managed to block Shen Yao in the Frontier Command. As soon as I explained the purpose of my visit, he pushed me to another moustache beside me and walked away.
The moustache asked me kindly what name I wanted. Does he want me to be his wife? How can I do that? So I left him very rudely and ran away.
Xiaolan did not know when to come back, the young couple had not seen each other for a long time, and would always be bored for a while. I might as well go to bed first. When I got up, I saw a bunch of flowers on the windowsill with the words “for Xiaolan.”.
Thanks to Shen Yao, in order to pursue him, I have studied Chinese for two and a half years, and I can understand all the commonly used words.
Although the dark circles are not more obvious, Xiaolan doesn’t seem to be sleepy at all. As she happily took the flowers, she told me that two months later Shen Yao would be responsible for escorting the emissaries from the Western Regions who paid tribute to the Tang Dynasty to Chang’an.
I was immediately overjoyed, pulled up the little orchid, who was still immersed in the fragrance of flowers, and ran to the horse house. I want to go back to see my father and ask him to allow me to go to Chang’an. When the time comes, Shen Yao will not be able to hide. The journey is so long, so boring, if nothing happens, how can we live up to the loneliness of the journey?
(4)
I smiled at Shen Yao, who was not very happy in front of me, and stuffed my favorite white jade rabbit into his arms. At the time of
departure, I had observed that the princes and princesses had come with Shule Suiye, and two of the younger princesses had their eyes shining when they saw Shen Yao. I have to admit, they are really good-looking. It’s not good to
look good. I saw Shen Yao first. They all have to line up behind. But looking at them staring at Shen Yao’s ferocious eyes, I immediately decided to strike first.
Shen Yao frowned slightly like a knife, trying to give me the little jade rabbit again, but I couldn’t resist my cleverness, and immediately jumped three feet away. I cleared my throat, patted my chest and said loudly, “This is my favorite little rabbit. It’s for my favorite General Shen.”
Shen Yao’s face turned black immediately, but he didn’t give it back to me. The main thing is that if he wants to return it, he has to throw it away. If it hits me, in front of the envoys of so many countries, it will affect diplomatic relations. If it hits the ground, then. The rabbit whose eyes are inlaid with rubies and whose whole body is made of fine Hetian jade is very expensive, and he is reluctant to part with it.
Shen Dahe said that although Shen Yao was a prince who respected gold and jade and had no worries about food and clothing, he had been left to hone in the military camp since he was young. He lived and ate with ordinary soldiers. He understood how difficult the people’s livelihood was and how difficult the bottom was. He also developed a frugal temperament, which was very different from those dandy boys who drank and gambled all day long.
At that time, when I heard Shen Dahe say this, my heart was full of joy. Anasha, you have a good eye.
Now, my first successful gift-giving, I couldn’t help but say something from the bottom of my heart: “General Shen is really cute. He’s as cute as a little rabbit, but he’s a little dark.”
Shen Yao pinched the little rabbit, and his face became darker.
No, I’m not saying that black is unlovable. Black spots are lovely, too, and healthy. I’ll find a craftsman and make a black rabbit. It must be very cute, just like General Shen.
Behind me came the giggles of the soldiers. I didn’t quite understand. I thought I had explained it all right.
Shen Yao pursed his lips tightly and gave the rabbit to Shen Dahe without saying a word. With Xiaolan, Shen Dahe would never dare to give it back to me. Maybe he would try to hide the rabbit quietly in Shen Yao’s pillow core or under the bedding. Shen Yao is pillowing the white jade rabbit, but isn’t he pillowing me?
Thinking of this, I almost laughed out loud, and then happily arched to Shen Yao’s side
: “General Shen, I want to have dinner with you!”
Shen Yao did not look at me. He turned back to his room and said coldly, “Princess, please respect yourself.”
“I’m not heavy.” I pretended not to understand, and quickly slipped in before
Shen Dahe selflessly stopped me. I sat down beside him and said, “General, what are we going to eat
today?”
In the end, Shen Yao grabbed me by the back of my neck and threw me out, slamming the
door.
Fortunately, the ministers of all countries had gone to settle down, and no one had seen the embarrassment of the four princesses of Yanqi.
Hey, I’m going back, too. My ass hurts.
(5)
Recently, Shen Yao felt a little uncomfortable when he saw me.
Maybe it’s because I’m a little too aggressive.
In the morning, I would put a bunch of dewy flowers
in front of the window of his room or outside his tent. I admit that I learned this trick from Shen Dahe.
Halfway through the rest, I would beat the horse to his side, put a gadget into his hand
, and then immediately ride back to Yanqi’s mission. When I set up camp in the
evening, I took advantage of the interval when Shen Dahe stretched his neck to look at the sky or changed the guard, slipped into Shen Yao’s camp and ate with him. At first, Shen Yao would always throw me out, but later, he could only let me act like a tyrant inside, ah, no, eating next to him.
Well, this move is also taught by Shen Dahe. Once he was scolded by Hsiao Lan, who felt sorry for me and threw me on my ass. With an obsequious look on his face, he offered advice: “The general’s face is thin. If he wants to throw you, the princess should shout, the louder the better. It’s absolutely OK to do whatever is fierce.”
So the next day, when Shen Yao wanted to throw me, I immediately shouted at the top of my voice according to the words taught by Counsellor Shen: “Ah, General Shen, after drinking the milk they fed you and eating the cherries they fed you, are you going to drive them out? Heartbreaker, fickle lover, Chen Shimei..” Whoo, whoo, whoo.. I haven’t held back my
tears yet, but Shen Yao first held back the internal injuries on his face. He covered my mouth with a red face, was stunned, and hurriedly released me, and did not drive me out again.
Because his red-faced appearance was so rare and beautiful, I couldn’t hold back and kissed him. Excited and nervous, I danced and ran out. I
always feel that I have forgotten something. What have I forgotten?
(6)
Oh, I forgot to eat.
Because of hunger, I lay in bed weakly. Xiaolan found some cakes for me, watched me eat them, and went out on a date again.
Really, I can’t see enough during the day, and I have to continue dating at night.
After sleeping time, I simply went to find Shen Yao, not knowing if he would be as lovely as during the day when he slept.
As a result, when I slipped to his door, he was sitting on the roof looking at the stars without sleeping. It was quiet, the soldiers were on guard, and the others were asleep.
Ah, this charming starry night, hazy beauty, can be too suitable for love! With this in mind, I immediately moved the ladder and climbed to the roof. General
Shen, how lonely it is to watch the stars alone at night. I’ll accompany you. Hey, do you want a bite? I untied the wine pot from my waist and handed it to Shen Yao. For the first time,
Shen Yao did not move away because of my approach, and I could even see some blush on his face. He stared at the flagon for a moment before he looked away. You don’t speak
again? All right. If he doesn’t speak, let me speak. What a big deal. At first I knew I was talking about embarrassing things when I was a child, and then I didn’t know what I was talking about. When I finish my last sip of wine, I just want to kiss his face again. It tastes smooth, like an egg. It’s so sweet.
Shen Yao was never directly facing me. When he finally turned his face sideways to look at me, he asked, “Does the princess like Shen’s face, or does she like Shen?”
“Can’t you all like it?” Why do I get drunk so easily today? It’s so strange. I hold on to my drooping eyelids and look at his side face doubtfully. “The face is yours, and the person is yours, too. It’s all yours, so I like it all.”
“Did the princess like Shen’s face or the person first?”
“Face.” I answered honestly.
Shen Yao seemed to smile, and I wanted to see it clearly, because he really never showed a smile in front of me. But dazed, I tried to open my eyes, but I couldn’t see Shen Yao’s expression clearly.
Shen Yao, I really like you very much. May I kiss you? I felt like I was going to pass out, so I pulled his sleeve and made a request. After all, I am a pursuing princess, and I want to kiss Shen Yao openly, legally and reasonably. In the
blur, Shen Yao seemed to shake off my hand. And then I woke up in my room. Xiaolan looked at me worriedly and told me that Shen Dahe and her passed by and found me lying on it, so they carried me down.
That’s strange. What about Shen Yao?
After that, I didn’t go to see Shen Yao for several days because I caught a cold on the roof that night.
When I recovered from my illness and went to see Shen Yao for dinner, he didn’t drive me away, but he didn’t have a good look, and he didn’t allow me to feed him.
But I’m still happy that we can eat together and sleep together soon. Well, this logic is indeed a bit exaggerated, but the future is long, Shen Yao this ice may be covered by me.
Shen Dahe is also very satisfied with my progress, he taught me a trick, man, catch his stomach is equal to catch his heart. So one night when he took off his armor, I plucked up my courage and grabbed Shen Yao’s stomach.
“Well, do you have any feelings in your heart?” I asked expectantly, my hand still resting on his stomach.
Shen Yao frowned and knocked off my hand. After warning me not to practice witchcraft in the Tang Dynasty, he drove me out.
“Yes, yes, yes. It’s all my fault that I didn’t make it clear.” Shen Dahe laughed so hard that his face turned red. “But it’s all right. The day after tomorrow is the general’s birthday. Princess, you behave well and try to make the general forgive you.”
The day after tomorrow, is it so urgent? Why didn’t you say so?
Shen Dahe scratched his head and said, “I’ve been busy making a book of dried flowers for Xiao Lan recently, and I forgot.” I have no time to be sour
this time. I have to rush to pick out a gift for Shen Yao. I went back to my room and rummaged through the boxes I had brought with me, especially the boxes I had specially prepared for Shen Yao. Now there was only a set of clay figure I treasured, a sword spike woven from a colorful silk sash, a branch of a thousand-year-old Populus euphratica, a precious stone belt I liked best, and some miscellaneous gadgets.
I held the belt and looked at it again and again, gritted my teeth, and put it back.
This thing, wait for him to like me, then give it out. When the time comes, I will give him a big surprise, together with myself.
None of them could stand up to the birthday ceremony, so I decided to go to the city for a stroll.
(7) The
room was very dark, the air was filled with a strong smell, and outside was the sound of string and bamboo, accompanied by some obscene laughter from time to time.
I know exactly where I am now, a brothel, or the kind that sells two women. At the moment, my hands are tied behind my back, which is very uncomfortable, but more important than that, it is too smelly here, and it is constantly refreshing my nose and spleen.
If my mouth hadn’t been gagged with rags, I would have really thrown up. Don’t be
next to the toilet. When I
think about it, I want to vomit even more.
It happened that I was going to rest in this city these two days, so I asked some of Yanqi’s warriors to follow me to the city to pick out gifts for Shen Yao. I’ve thought this through, and yet I’m still abducted.
This bunch of wine bags and rice bags! When I go back, I will let my father withhold their salaries!
I don’t know if Xiaowu and Xiaolan will let Shen Yao save me when they go back and find me missing.
I don’t know how long I waited until someone pushed the door and came in. Several strong servants carried me out, sent me to a courtyard to dress up, put on the gauze skirt of the Qiuci dancer, took me to a beautifully decorated room, and retreated. After
waiting for a long time, a portly Han Chinese, now black and blue, staggered in, his eyes fixed on me like a mouse. He walked lightly and staggered to sit beside me, calling greasily, “Little beauty, little beauty.”
“Although I am quite beautiful, I am the princess of Yanqi, and I don’t do this.” I propped up my chin and looked at him in embarrassment. Oh, it was disgusting.
Princess? Even if you are the princess of the Tang Dynasty, you have to serve me well today! Come on, give your father a kiss. The potbellies are getting closer.
Ew. I really threw up this time.
Pot-bellied seemed so angry that his face contorted and he came straight to my collar. Before he could get angry and shout, I jumped up and pushed the drunk’s head into my vomit.
Well, in fact, I don’t want to do this. I also want to poison him gracefully, but I spit out all the poison I hid in my teeth just now.
After confirming that Pot-Belly was unconscious, I hummed the guy to the bed, and when it was almost time, I kicked the bed hard to simulate a discordant sound.
This kind of thing is not difficult for me, after all, how many countries in the western regions of joy, there is no I haven’t seen. This time, I really want to ask what the Datang looks like.
Just when I thought it was not safe enough to run away now, or I would wait, Shen Yao came to save me. The problem,
however, was that when he lifted the bed curtain, I was eating a snack with one hand, rummaging through the spring pictures found in the room with the other hand, and shaking the leg of the bed with one leg; beside me lay an unconscious middle-aged man with a dirty face. I
looked at him as if he had seen a ghost, and I couldn’t help regretting it. If I had known this, I would have thrown the dead pervert on the ground, and then I would have been three points of spring and seven points of shyness. In my shyness, I would have lain in the curtain with eight points of tears. Then I would have bitten my lip softly and called out, “General Shen.”.
“General Shen.” In reality, I tried to pull out a smile that there was no silver here, and with one hand I hid the picture of spring under my body. “Why don’t you come in again?”
I saw that Shen Yao’s eyes moved down with my hands, and then he blushed, the kind of red monkey buttocks.
But he seemed to be very angry, wrapped me up in a quilt, and then rode me to a strange place.
“If anyone asks about what happened tonight, they will say that you and Princess Ding hit it off immediately, and that the princess asked you to go to the mansion for two days, but there was a mistake in the middle of the message, and there was a misunderstanding.” Shen Yao put me down, and Junlang’s face was still expressionless.
“But that’s a lie. I don’t know any princesses..” Shen Yao’s face was so cold that I dared not say any more.
“There are clothes in the house. Go and put them on. Rest first. I’ll pick you up early tomorrow morning.”
“OK, I’ll wait for you.” In order to save me, he must have been tired and distressed for a long time.
Shen Yao asked me to rest, but my mind was so full of him that I couldn’t sleep at all. I leaned against the window and counted the hours, hoping he would come.
It was not until the sun went down and rose again that Shen Yao came in the morning light. He was wearing the same Han Chinese robe as the night before, but today it was silver, embroidered with delicate bamboo. There is no bamboo in
the Western Regions, and there is no bamboo in the Western Regions.
I jumped to my feet and trotted up to Shen Yao. “Happy birthday, General Shen!” I said.
He was stupefied and then turned away. “Thank you, Princess, for your kindness.”. But why doesn’t the princess change her clothes?
I dragged him into the middle of the open courtyard, and the golden light of the sun also fell on my face: “Just in time to wear this for you to dance, to celebrate your birthday. Watch, I’ll give you the most beautiful dance in the Western Regions.”
When I finished dancing, I ran and wiped my sweat. When I stopped beside him, his shadow just covered my shadow in my arms. General
Shen, isn’t it beautiful? I’m dancing so hard, I’ve never danced so hard. I lowered my head apologetically and felt very sorry. “I’m sorry. I didn’t know where I lost the gift I finally chose for you when I was taken away.”. And I’m sorry for the trouble I caused you the night before.
“Princess, you dance very well. I like it very much.” Shen Yao hung down his long eyelashes, looked at me, and said earnestly.
“So, can I kiss you now?”
(8)
“Princess, I think you’re a little impatient. It’s easy to ruin the atmosphere.” Shen Dahe thought with his chin propped up.
“But I really want to kiss him..” I also want to do something to him that can only be done between husband and wife. But I didn’t have the nerve to say the last sentence.
I looked up at Shen Yao, who was riding at the front of the procession, and I couldn’t help feeling a little dejected. He had not spoken to me for many days since that day, when he had heard the request for a kiss and had picked me up with a livid face and returned to the mission.
Don’t stop, don’t block, don’t cover, just refuse to talk to me. No matter I act shamelessly and coquettishly, he refuses to talk to me. Summoning up my courage,
I moved to Shen Yao’s side again and accosted him pitifully, “Shen Yao, do you like me?”. You see, the six princesses of Suiye laugh at me secretly, and the eight princesses and nine princesses of Khotan bet on a golden crown of precious stones and a box of gold to see if you like me.
If you don’t like me, I’ll make a joke of the Western Regions.
Shen Yao took one look at me, but he didn’t avoid me any more. You caught the six princesses of Suiye and laughed at them. The eight princesses of Khotan bet you to win, so you added a box of gold to her. Princess Anasha, who spends a lot of money and is never willing to suffer losses in words, who dares to laugh at you?
Embarrassed, I had to giggle and say, “You, you pay attention to me!”! Aren’t you angry? Shen Yao looked at me with a giggle and shook his head helplessly.
After that, my journey revolved around the firm theme of “pursuing Shen Yao,” and I returned
to my usual state.
The days passed quickly, and we arrived in Chang’an and were received by the Khan of Heaven. The
legendary Khan of Heaven is a man like the God of War, but the real man is just a heroic and kind
middle-aged man. He loved his queen very much, and I saw him peep at
the beautiful and graceful wife from time to time at the ceremony, and his eyes were full of twinkling stars.
I couldn’t help looking at Shen Yao on the table. Today he wears the official clothes of the Han people,
eats and drinks slowly, handsome and noble, and smiles more than usual.
Chang’an is very good, Chang’an is very prosperous, Chang’an has Shen Yao, I would like to stay in Chang’an.
But I did not expect, there are many people do not want me to stay in Changan.
(9)
The ten princesses of Tang Emperor invited me to visit her princess mansion. When I
arrived, I found that the ladies in the Central Plains were much better at playing than we were. They played polo, played
cards, drank wine, recited poems, played the piano and appreciated paintings. There was no one they couldn’t play.
I wanted to learn to play polo, but after watching for a long time, none of the ladies who came off the stage were
willing to change me.
I continued to wait eagerly, but felt someone patting me behind my back. A beautiful
lady in pink said with a smile, “Princess Yanqi, we have something to find you, you come with me
.”.
I followed her doubtfully to a secluded place, only to see a few of the most beautiful ladies standing there.
“What are you looking for me for?” “Princess Yanqi,” said
a square-faced girl dressed in green, “don’t bother Shen Shizi any more.”
I don’t understand what you Han Chinese mean by entanglement. But I really like Shen Yao, and I’m pursuing him. I explained earnestly. A girl in yellow
next to me gave me a discontented snort: “Shen Shizi is going to be engaged to our third mother. Even if you don’t know how to be polite in the Western Regions, you won’t be unaware that seducing a married man is a shameless act, right?”
“I don’t believe it. He never said that.” The girl in
green grabbed me and said, “Don’t pretend you don’t believe me. Do you want to stick to Shen Shizi and stay in Chang’an?”? Do you deserve to fight with Lushi’s legitimate daughter?
I broke away from her hand, pressed the whip on my waist tightly, and raised my voice: “How can I not be worthy? My father is the king of Yanqi, and I am the most noble princess of Yanqi.” The girl in
green laughed lightly and exchanged contemptuous glances with her companions. She said that Yanqi and the Western Regions were just small countries, princesses and princes, and a group of people outside the world.
I really want to say no, this is not the case. Yanqi is the pearl of the Western Regions. The grass is abundant and the water is beautiful. The people live in peace. It is a place blessed by the gods.
But I suddenly thought of my father’s increasingly bent body. It was very late at night, and he was still sitting on the throne wearily. I remember that day the emissary of the Turks came and asked his father to be loyal to him.
I almost ran away and failed to maintain the dignity of a princess. I’m going to find Shen Yao. I just want to find Shen Yao. But when I saw him, there was only deeper heartache.
(10)
When I broke into Shen’s mansion and found Shen Yao, he was standing with a graceful young girl.
The girl stood gracefully by the lake covered with new lotuses, her silks as thin as cicada wings fluttering in the wind, and her pomegranate red skirt was as brilliant as the sunset glow on the horizon. She turned her head softly and slowly, revealing the color of extreme beauty under the power fence, and her noble spirit was clear. All of a sudden, people can’t tell whether people are more beautiful than flowers or both beautiful scenery and beautiful women. Shen Yao, who
was silver-white and embroidered with bamboo, stood beside her. As soon as she saw me, she came over frowning.
“Shen Yao.” I looked up with my brightest smile. “Shen Yao, are you going to get engaged?”
Shen Yao grabbed my hand in silence and pulled me out of the door. It was so painful to be pulled by
him that I struggled to stop with all my strength. I asked him again, “Shen Yao, do you like me?”? If you like me, I’ll personally go and make amends with the girl you’re going to be
engaged to. I’ll go up to the mountain of swords and down to the sea of fire, and I’ll do whatever she says.
“Sorry.” We were deadlocked for a long time before he answered the word.
“Sorry for what?” I stared into his eyes, trying to find out. But he just grabbed my wrist fiercely, his eyes were red, and he said nothing.
“Shen Yao, I want to ask you one last question.” I looked at the humble reflection in his eyes and suddenly felt that the reflection was very pitiful. “Did you look down on me and Yan Qi from the very beginning?”
“Anasha..” His brow suddenly became heavier, as if he wanted to say something, but finally he tightened his lips.
My wrists were numb, and I had probably fallen to the bottom of my disappointment, but I still felt the need to erase my unlearned image: I know that in your Tang Dynasty, all aristocratic sons and daughters admire women with five surnames. Shen Yao, you are so lucky. The Lushi of Fanyang, whom many people can’t ask for, is now willing to marry your Shen family.
I thought about the demure Lotus Fairy and said earnestly, “Lu Sanniang is very beautiful. She is the most beautiful Han Chinese girl I have ever seen. You are really right. This should be what you Han Chinese call a match made in heaven.”
“Shen Yao, from this moment on, I don’t like you anymore.” I collected myself, wiped the tears from my face, blinked hard, forced the remaining tears back, and solemnly announced.
Shen Yao seemed to be choking, neither speaking nor letting me go. Finally, Xiaowu and Xiaolan came and took me back. They were followed by an official who did not know what his position
was, saying that I had to pay a high fine for riding in the street.
Xiaowu rummaged through boxes and cupboards to find the gold I had hidden and handed it to the official with a serious look.
As soon as the official left happily, I grabbed the small wooden box containing the gold and fell on the bed, dying. “Xiaowu, I’m crossed in love. I want to go home.” “Oh, I haven’t had enough of Chang’an,” said
Xiao Wu, waving indifferently. “Go back to Long Anasha by yourself. You won’t be in any danger anyway.”
When I chased Xiaowu all over the yard with a whip, he said angrily, I not only lost my love, but also my family.
No, Long Sugu, you are wrong. What I lost is Xiaolan.
(11)
Shen Dahe moves so fast that people are surprised. On the third day of our arrival in Chang’an, he proposed to Xiaolan. This guy made a lot of strange ceremonies and invited his mother to be a witness.
So I watched Xiaolan cry with joy, and I couldn’t help shedding lemon, oh no, moving tears.
So when the silly girl was so angry that she packed up and wanted to go back to Yanqi with me, I stopped her and opened the door to let Shen Dahe in. The natural
consequence is that Xiaolan stayed in the Tang Dynasty. Shen Dahe is a good man, I am very relieved, but I may not see Xiaolan again. She has been with me for ten years. She is my best partner
, friend and sister. There was a box in the luggage that had never been opened, which was the dowry I was going to give to Xiaolan.
On the day of departure, Xiaolan brought Shen Dahe to see me and Xiaowu off. Shen Dahe quietly told me that Shen Yao is a good person, but emotional things have always been unreasonable, more difficult to distinguish between right and wrong, let me take it easy.
I nodded and said, I will, new love and time, are good medicine. Just correspondence in the future, don’t mention Shen Yao, everything about him has nothing to do with me anymore.
Xiaowu is urging like an old maid again. I waved at them, got on my horse, and headed west. When I walked a few hundred paces, I suddenly heard someone calling me.
Xiaowu returned to the horse and blocked the man in front of him. Out of the corner of his eye, he looked at me over Xiaowu, holding a rabbit with white jade and ruby in his hand. I didn’t stop. I knew Shen Dahe would give him another female rabbit carved out of white jade and the wedding gift I had prepared for him.
And my most precious belt, pressed at the bottom of the box, can not be sent out. The voice
behind me became noisy, and I pretended not to hear it.
In fact, my heart did not die that day. Only later, Shen Yao’s mother came to me and invited me to a very beautiful garden. She is a very elegant lady, but she doesn’t like me.
She said that Shen Yao liked Lu Sanniang very much. That year, facing Shen Guogong’s proposal, Lu revealed the meaning of refusal and wanted to promise Lu Sanniang to Cui’s lineal husband in Boling.
Shen Yao was hurt, please go to guard the western regions. Now he came back, got the appreciation of the day Khan, Lushi in his phase again, Guogongfu also waiting for him to pick up, after marriage, he definitely can’t go to the western regions.
Finally, Mrs. Shen picked a flower and gave it to me. She said that Shen Yao felt ashamed of me, and she also felt ashamed of me.
“Why?” I asked, holding the flower. Mrs.
Shen grinned gracefully, “a little cat or dog picked up by the roadside likes you and looks up to you with wet eyes every day.”. It’s hard not to feel guilty and hesitant, especially when you have to throw them away again.
“Anasha, don’t go, don’t go!” The shouting voice became hoarse and a little crazy.
Shen Yao is very strange, obviously unintentional, but doing this kind of thing that makes people misunderstand.
Soon, it seemed that Shen Guogong shouted to Shen Fu’s soldiers to take him away, but I never looked back. The eight princesses of Khotan lost the bet, and so did I. She has lost her magnificent crown, and I will fulfill my promise.
(12)
The Empress Mother sent a lot of silks, all of which were rewards from the Tang Emperor for paying tribute to Yan Qi. Such a good silk material was also top-notch in the Tang Dynasty, and only the royal family could enjoy it. With a smile on his face
, Xiaoliu looked at me and took all the sample cloth and sent the palace people back to reply. “Sister,” he said sourly, “at least leave me two horses. I’m going to get married next year.”
“Then you will marry Ab for me, and I will marry Hei Cui, and all these will be yours.” Smiling, I snatched two pieces from her hand and replied with my head tilted.
Hsiao-liu immediately flicked away. Before he left, he glanced plaintively at the silk again. “Then I don’t want it, stingy.”
I’m going to marry Abu soon. This is the bet between my father and me before I leave for the Tang Dynasty.
Abu is the son of the general of Yanqi, who will inherit his father’s position and guard Yanqi in the future. Speaking of it, Abu is two years younger than me. When he was a child, he liked to play behind my buttocks all the time, and behind his buttocks, there was a difficult brother, Xiao Wu.
Abu and Xiaowu, one by one, pulled his beard while his husband was sleeping, smashed the precious stone on the belt of the general’s wife, and took my father’s swift horse to exchange for the things from Tianzhu, too numerous to mention, so they were almost broken by the general and the father.
I don’t know why Father put me and Ab together. As early as two years ago, I heard Xiao Wu say that Abu had a little girl he liked, and I wanted Xiao Wu to take me to see her.
As a result, I ran to find Shen Yao and killed the little five pigeons.
Hey, I don’t miss this person. Anyway, I’m willing to gamble and admit defeat, but I don’t understand why Ab agreed. Where did his little girl go?
“Four princesses.” A maid came running in a panic. “Your Majesty has asked you to come over, saying that someone has come from the Anxi Frontier Command.”
I dressed up and followed her out, but I murmured in my heart that it was none of my business to be a girl from the Anxi Frontier Command? With this in mind, he soon arrived at the main hall. I saw the familiar
silver robe and wanted to run away immediately.
It’s Shen Yao. There was a tired look between
his eyebrows, which was quite different from the high-spirited, fresh-dressed and angry appearance of a few months ago. It took
me a great deal of strength to force myself to calm down and sit down demurely beside my father. Looking up, I found that Abu was also there. The little boy who called me sister in a milky voice in those days is now very tall, but his whole face shows some fierce indifference.
Shen Yao took a deep look at me and bowed to his father, saying, “Shen wants to ask King Yanqi to marry Princess Anasha.”
He’s crazy, I’m sure in my heart.
The father rubbed his eyebrows in silence for a long time before saying, “Thanks to the general’s wrong love, my son is engaged to the general’s son and will be married next month.”. General Shen, young hero, please.. Find someone else.
I stared at the ground, only to find that Abu suddenly crouched on one knee beside me and held my hand tightly. I looked at him and said to Shen Yao in a cold voice, “Anasha is going to be my wife. If General Shen is willing, please invite the wedding party to have a cup of wedding wine.”
After that, Abu saluted and led me out of the hall in a protective gesture.
Coming so close, I realized that Abu is also very handsome today. Okay, I’m sure and certain that I’m willing to marry him. Maybe the girl he had a crush on was me. I’ve worked so hard to have a crush on him for so long. I’m so touched. I must treat him well.
But before I could ignite the little spark in my heart, I heard Abu call out “Sister.”.
I pulled out my ears and asked, “What did you call me?”
“Sister.” Abu withdrew his hand, raised his eyebrows, folded his arms and looked at me. “Isn’t that what I always call it?”
You.. Don’t you have a crush on me? You’re going to get married. I don’t mind if you give me an interesting nickname. I smiled and looked at the innocent Abu. It doesn’t matter. It’s the same for anyone to poke the window paper. Besides, I’m two years older than him. It’s right to give up.
Ab slanted his head and laughed out of breath. When he finally covered his stomach and laughed, I finally knew that Abu was absolutely pure to me.
I fell on the railing of the palace, holding a deep memorial to my second feeling that died before it was formed.
“Can we still get married like this?” I prodded the man next to me with my elbow.
“Yes! Why can’t it be done?” Ab whistled to the sky and said nonchalantly, “Sister, it’s a miracle that people like us can marry the person they like.”
Come on, we are all lost in the world. After a while, Abu walked shoulder to shoulder with Xiao Wu who was passing by.
I sighed, intending to continue to think about the feasibility of the plan with Abu, but I caught a glimpse of silver in the corner of my eye. Just as I was about to run away, the owner of the silver robe stopped me.
“Shen Yao, what are you doing?”
(13)
Shen Yao’s eyes burned as if to melt the precious stone on my forehead: “Why did you marry him?”
“If you want to get married, you can get married. There aren’t so many reasons.” I pulled away to go, but he blocked me with his body.
“But I am the one you like.”
I wanted to give him a dirty look, but a decent princess could not do such a rude act, so I looked at Shen Yao in my spare time: “General Shen, when I was in Chang’an, I decided not to like you.”. Do you think I’m just talking, or am I playing hard to get?
Shen Yao has probably never seen me unsmiling, after all, I always smile cheekily when I face him, as if I have endless love. He was stunned, and the light in his eyes dimmed. “Why don’t you wait a few more days before you decide? I can give you the answer you want in just two days.”
I interrupted and looked into the distance. “Shen Yao, I’m going to get married. Don’t come to the wedding feast next month. I’m afraid Abu won’t be happy.”
Shen Yao didn’t stop me any more, but as I passed him, he suddenly took my hand and whispered, “Anasha, I won’t let you marry anyone else.”
I gently broke free and calmly left, ignoring Shen Yao’s next words.
Since then, Shen Yao has never appeared again. I was still the heartless princess of Yanqi, and I pushed all the things to be married to my mother. When the fifth brother saw me, I was playing Shuanglu with the maids, shouting at the thief. With a livid look on his face, the
fifth brother pulled me out and said angrily, “How could I have such a silly and sweet sister like you?”
“You’re the sweet fool, and your whole family is sweet fool!” After I retorted in a muddle, I realized that I had lost my mouth and felt the eyes of my fifth brother who cared for the mentally retarded, so I had to shut my mouth in silence. “Sister,” said the
fifth brother, “Abu is dating a woman behind your back. I’m so angry. I’m going to break up with him!”
‘Oh.. Is that man good-looking?
“She’s pretty, and she’s got a good figure.” The fifth brother recalled carefully and looked at me in disgust. “Although you are much better than you, you are still a princess, and you are my sister. How can Abu treat you like this?”
I patted the little fool on the shoulder and said, “Did you see him holding hands or kissing?”? Maybe just a distant relative to talk to.
“As if, as if not.” Xiaowu shook his head with a red face, and then ran away like the wind. I guess he had a quarrel with Abu before he came, and he was busy apologizing to his childhood friend.
I looked at Xiaowu’s back and sighed. Hey, I really love sighing recently. Speaking of, I am really a miserable woman, a princess, and it’s really hard for me to cover for my fiance
before I get married. The day after I met
Shen Yao, I went to find Abu, intending to cultivate my feelings with him. Isn’t it beautiful that the love between sister and brother develops into the love between sister and brother? Isn’t the little milk dog and the little wolf dog fragrant?
Who knew that I had just propped up Abu’s chin and was going to look at him affectionately. Abu turned his head and burst out laughing, and when he stopped rolling all over the ground with difficulty, I understood the fact that Abu not only had never had a crush on me, but also had someone in his heart!
My fiance has a white moonlight in his heart that he refuses to forget, which is a bit too much.
But he’ll still have to marry me, and I’ll still marry him.
(14)
On the wedding eve, I saw Shen Yao again. This time, he wore a black suit of Yanqi and a short knife, which was much more energetic than previous one.
But the way he looked like he was in no man’s land made me feel like he needed to be beaten, and I regretted why I didn’t let my father deduct the salaries of the palace guards last time. This is a bag of wine and rice, simply do not want to make progress!
Grand Yanqi Palace, did Shen Yao come in when he wanted to, ah?
All right, yeah. And he brought a man with him, and the two of them walked into my palace together.
This man is.. Shen Dahe?
When Shen Yao wrapped me up like a rice dumpling and took me away, I was shocked. Was the person next to me who handed me the rope really Shen Dahe?
Shen Dahe did not dare to look directly at my torch-like eyes. I think he must be afraid that I would accuse Xiaolan of helping a tyrant to do evil and acting in collusion with him.
Shen Yao carried me and left the palace. I don’t know where they took me, but I remember that when Shen Yao finally put me on the bed and untied the rope wrapped in rice dumplings, he didn’t leave. His chapped lips kissed me lightly on the forehead, his hand half propped up on the edge of the bed, his eyes fixed, unable to melt into the darkness.
“Anasha, I think of you like crazy.” He said. A few sparks
outside the window fell into his eyes through the night. I got up a little, put my face close to his cheek, put my arms around his broad, thick shoulders, and rubbed the tip of my nose against his chin. “Shen Yao, can I kiss you?”
Without waiting for him to speak, I took the initiative to kiss him. Shen Yao did not know what he was thinking. First, he let me toss and turn several times on those two lips. When I easily pried open my teeth and moved restlessly deeper, he suddenly used his strength to lean forward, holding my waist with one hand and stroking my hair along my back with the other hand, deepening the kiss.
His kiss was so intense that I suffered passively and gradually became short of breath. I think it’s time. He probably doesn’t know that he’s one of the people I’m guarding against now.
Shen Yao finally realized that something was wrong, but he could not support it. Even so, it took me a lot of effort to push him down, turn over and get out of bed, and tidy up my skirt. “Shen Yao, I told you, I don’t like you. I’m going back.”. If you embarrass me again, I can only ask my father Tongtian Khan to present his credentials. Though he is small, he must seek justice. Before falling asleep, Shen Yao spoke with difficulty: “Anasha, don’t go back.”
I ignored him, pushed the door and went out. Shen Dahe was standing outside the courtyard. He was neither surprised
nor stopped me, but asked when I stepped out of the threshold, “Princess, do you really
want to go back?”?
I nodded.
“I respect your opinion, but..” Shen Dahe’s tone was somewhat melancholy. Ah Yao
, in order to be with you, he also carried a lot of burdens. Once you are gone, you may never
have a chance to stay together again.
I still nodded and decided to leave. Before I left, I told Shen Dahe that in fact, Shen Yao and
I could not fall in love at the beginning. But I understood this truth too late.
By the time I got back to the palace, the sky had changed.
(15)
After his father and mother were imprisoned, Abu was detained in the general’s mansion, and Xiaowu and Xiaoliu disappeared
.
In fact, I have known for a long time that there may be such a day.
But I don’t want to think about it, and I’m always used to beautifying everything. After
my father and mother, there was no love between them; the eldest sister’s marriage to the prince
of Qiuci was initially just a political marriage; the marriage of the second sister and the third brother was only to make the position of the royal family with the surname of Long
in Yanqi more stable.
As for my bet with my father, it was probably that my father could give Xiao Si his last dream.
Why Abu? Because his father, General Yi, secretly urged important officials and other people in the royal family to turn the whole Yanqi to the Western Turks, his actions became more and more frequent and obvious in the past year. However, Yanqi is now a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, and defecting to each other may lead to a punitive expedition by the Tang Dynasty.
My father had seen the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the ferocity of the Western Turks. Although the Tang Dynasty was strong, the Western Turks were on the neighboring side. Yanqi but more than five thousand households, fifty or sixty thousand people, can’t afford to offend any party.
I married Abu as an appeasement to the Iraqi general. More importantly, Ab stood with my father. If this goes through, the Western Turks will decline or fail in the future, and Abu will personally kill General Yi and take over the military power to deal with the anger of the Tang Dynasty.
Yes, my father is sitting on the fence, trying to seek a delicate balance in this dangerous situation for the survival of Yanqi.
You see, I am not a qualified princess. Since I was born to be supported by the people, I should devote my life to Yanqi. But in the face of my father’s guilt for his first few children, I pretended to be naive and ignorant, and my eyes were full of selfish love.
Shen Yao thought I didn’t understand and reminded him when I was in the palace, but where did I need him to remind me? Princess or victim, I have to shoulder the responsibility that I should have shouldered long ago.
This time I didn’t become a deserter. General Yi threatened the life of his mother and imprisoned me separately from my father and queen mother after I fell into the trap. But the only thing I don’t understand is why General Yi mutinied at this time. After all, on the surface, my father gave him
enough sincerity.
Until I saw Ab.
I thought Abu, who was in custody, came in calmly. He looked down at me and said he was sorry
.
“Why?” I asked with red eyes, “Abu, when your mother died at the hands of Yuji and your
father, you vowed to avenge her. Have you forgotten?”? When Xiaowu and I
saved you from Yuji, you said you would repay
us anyway in this life. Betrayal, ah, betrayal! Is that your vow?
Sister, she’s back. The Turks will give her back to me. Ab turned his back to
me. I’m sorry, Sister. She is the one I most want to keep.
You can kill me. Don’t call me sister. It’s disgusting.
After a while, Abu finally turned around and looked at me with an iron and cold expression. “Four princesses
, the Turks want you to marry the younger brother of the great nobleman Qu Lixiao, in order to cultivate the friendship between the two countries.”
In fact, you don’t have to be angry. If it’s not you, it will be the six princesses. According to my father’s original
idea, you marry me, and the six princesses marry the Turks. Now you’re the only one left, and
the six princesses may still marry her childhood sweetheart, Hei Cui.
I closed my eyes and did not know how to accept this fate, my fate of Yanqi.
(16)
Fate is not the most cruel, only more cruel, such as now.
Squatting in the grass just after diarrhea, I called Shen Yao in a complicated mood and asked him to lend me some cloth. Wipe.
Yes, that’s right. It’s Shen Yao. Originally,
I only knew that Shen Yao was powerful, but I didn’t know that he was so powerful that even the Western Turkic wedding guards could sneak in and become full-time guards to protect me.
Therefore, when the princess was in the field, he stood not far away to watch to prevent me from escaping. Don’t ask me why I didn’t ask the maid for it. I stared at the Turkic maid standing mowing the grass not far away and felt a pain in my ass.
I went back to the carriage with a black face. Oh, he must have heard my fart. As soon as he sat down, someone followed him in. What
are you doing in here? Don’t hurt me if you want to die. I can not help but doubt Shen Yao’s intelligence quotient, he sat down so careless, not afraid of being found out that there is a problem?
“I told them that the princess was acting suspiciously, so I had to take care of her.” Shen Yao looked calm, he bowed his head, his breath just fluttered on my hair, and his lips were filled with a faint, gentle smile.
This man is really..
Even though I have given up Shen Yao, I have to admit that this face is really easy to bewitch unmarried girls, such as me.
Until Shen Yao raised his hand and stroked my pigtail, and squeezed me to the innermost, slightly sideways, like a wall surrounding me inside. I was so confused that I felt as if he were holding his hands against the wall of the car, his eyes falling straight on me
, and his tone was very serious: “Anasha, I
will go with you to the ends of the earth when things are done here.”
Shen Yao’s nose was getting closer and closer, touching my eyebrows. “Since you already had a husband and wife in
Yanqi City last time, you have to be responsible for me.”
Husband, the reality of husband and wife? Didn’t he bully me because he didn’t understand and wanted to blackmail me?
“Shen Yao, what do you want to do?”
“I never fell in love with Lu San-niang.” The
answer is not the question.
I shrugged indifferently and turned my head with a long yawn.
Before he finished yawning, he was grabbed by his hand. His palms were cold and his voice was low. He had
never said in such a low voice: “Sorry, it took me so long to figure it out
.”
“At first, I really wanted to marry a woman from an aristocratic family, but when I got back to Chang’an, I still hadn’t made up
my mind.” Shen Yao suddenly looked up, his clear eyes filled with a little moisture, and said earnestly
, “After you left, I realized that my heart was happy with you, and I must have you.”
(17)
I had a hard time getting to the court of the Western Turks.
Shen Yao changed his ways to tease me every day, but the Turks did not suspect me at all. A broken carriage stuffed with two lonely men and widows, dry wood fire, but also not afraid of the whole point of emotional disputes. Am
I too sophisticated, or is the enemy too simple? When I
finally arrived at the royal court, I was relocated to the camp of the Turey family, waiting to marry Turey. The Turks were more anxious than I was. The day after I arrived, I was dragged into the wedding room. There was a lot of noise
outside, and I sat quietly on the bed with a soft wool blanket and waited.
Shen Yao didn’t come and said he liked me, a liar.
Passed for a long time again, I had yawned, just see Qu Li pushes the door to come in namely. Trey is the go-getter middle-aged man I’ve ever seen. I had thought that his only brother should not be much younger, perhaps, or the kind of dead wife, married me to his son as a stepmother.
But the young man in front of him had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was very upright, which was the favorite appearance of the girls in the Western Regions. If the Turk had not gone too far, I would have happily married such a young man.
Qu Li walked towards the bed full of alcohol, and then was stunned by a knife from Shen Yao’s hand and fell to the ground. Shen Dahe did not know how to slip in.
I watched dumbfounded as Shen Dahe took out a small box of strange things and tinkered with them in front of Shen Yao. Then Shen Yao’s face turned into the appearance of Qu Li, and then changed back to Shen Yao’s appearance.
My God, Shen Dahe is immortal! After
Shen Dahe made a color and helped Qu Li out, Shen Yao immediately sat down beside me and told me affectionately that we had to eat and sleep together to deceive people.
I believed in your evil. I didn’t want to be forced to marry Qu Li, but I didn’t want to hurt him. Shen Yao did this, in addition to completely tied me to his side, to me, to my father and mother, to Yanqi, what is the use. In
a moment of anger, I kicked Shen Yao out of bed: “Who wants to get on your pirate ship?”
Unexpectedly, I finally got on Shen Yao’s pirate ship, and I had several more titles: the undercover agent jointly appointed by Tang Dynasty and Yan Qi, Shen Yao’s contract wife, Shen Yao’s direct offline, and Shen Yao’s warm bed sister.
(18)
I said I was undercover, but I really had nothing to do. But Shen Yao went out to collect information every day, and when he came back at night, he recorded important information and taught Shen Dahe to pass it on. Only
then did I know that Xiaowu and Xiaoliu had fled to the Anxi Frontier Command and had now been escorted by Guo to a safer city in the Tang Dynasty. When the war with the Turks was over, the Tang Emperor would send troops to send them back to Yanqi.
I actually do not quite understand, the Tang Dynasty is so powerful, why wait?
Shen Yao put down his pen and clasped my forehead, saying that the Turks had not attacked Yanqi, and that the control of Yanqi was also carried out in secret. If attack at this time, the division is unknown.
Well, the Han Chinese is trouble, like to do anything for a justified. I covered my head and drew back into the quilt, then I saw Shen Yao turn up the corner of the quilt with his lips hooked, and then lay down. He propped up the back of his head and looked at me happily. Here we go
again. In order to cooperate with each other in this scene, Shen Yao and I had to make some noise every night, just because he heard that Qu Li was inseparable from women.
I turned my back to him and shouted, but for a long time, there was no sound behind me. It shouldn’t be. Didn’t we say that we should perform together and forbid monologues. Turning to look, I saw him staring at me in a trance, with a suspicious blush on his face.
“Shen Yao..” I tried to push him in the chest, but he threw me into his arms.
Shen Yao leaned over to kiss my forehead and quickly blew out the light: “Sleep.”
“What’s the matter with you?”
“Don’t move, Anasha.” Shen Yao hugged my waist and put his head close to my neck. “Why can’t I stop thinking about you when you’re right in front of me?” He sighed.
“May I kiss you?” He asked hoarsely.
(19)
I’m a little angry. Shen Yao hugged me and kissed me for a long time
last night. I wanted to push him away, but he said that I had kissed him secretly when I went to Chang’an. Princess Yanqi dared to do it and refused to make up for it.
As though That makes sense. But I stole a kiss, as for so long? Besides, I think this kid can’t hold back his lust. That thing is very prickly.
So as soon as I got angry, I threw him to his second wife, Shanning.
The beautiful and sharp Shanning is also said to be an aristocratic woman, but she is willing to marry Qu Li as her second wife. Even Tury dotes on her with all his heart, and the jewel on her belt is bigger and shinier than that of my first wife. On the third day of
my marriage, she came to me with a group of little ladies who dared not even lift their heads. She said in a strange way that I should not take advantage of the newlyweds to occupy my husband and influence Qu Li to give birth to children. “Oh, did you give birth to his son when you occupied him?” I said to her with a smile as I
carried the hot milk tea.
Shanning immediately left in a huff, without the consciousness of a concubine. Later, I had to look for something to do every day, but when I couldn’t find Shen Yao, I sent a message to me, sometimes saying that she was ill and asked Qu Li to visit her, and sometimes saying that her noble family had come and asked Qu Li to see her.
I didn’t want Shen Yao to get involved, but he went too far, and I didn’t want to see him again. So when Shanning came to stop the drunken Shen Yao in the evening, I asked someone to carry him away directly.
Without Shen Yao’s teasing, I lay in bed and didn’t fall asleep for a long time. When I was about to put on my shoes to see the moon, I heard a dog barking three short and two long.
It’s Shen Dahe’s emergency signal.
I hurried out of the camp, followed the hurried Shen Dahe, and turned to another camp. Get into a look, Shan Ning fell to the ground, unconscious. On the other side, Shen Yao, whose original appearance was revealed, was tied to the animal foot cabinet in a disheveled manner, his face flushed, and his forehead was cut.
No, Shen Yao won’t be forced by Shan Ning, will he? I felt so guilty in my
heart that Shen Dahe’s voice sounded faintly behind me: “Fortunately, I found it in time and didn’t let Shanning find it.”. But Ah Yao has been given an aphrodisiac this time, Princess. Now he can only rely on you.
“There was such a thing in ancient times. I always thought it was a legend..”
Shen Dahe’s voice suddenly became far away, and I was stunned, aphrodisiac. Wait, an aphrodisiac?!
(20)
Shen Yao is lying on my bed at the moment, his face is like a spring peach, his eyes are like silk, he bites his lips painfully, and from time to time he calls “Sasha” in a low voice.
Shen Dahe, who had no loyalty, moved people back and ran away, leaving me alone to face the embarrassing situation. After
a long hesitation, I finally resigned and moved to the bedside. If it wasn’t for me, Shen Yao wouldn’t have been defiled. You know, in our Yanqi, the chastity of boys is also very precious.
“Shen Yao.” The aphrodisiac of the Western Regions is hard to solve. I just lay flat beside him and whispered, “If you really feel sick, I can help you.”
Shen Yao’s eyes were full of eyes, and the broken hair on his forehead was wet with sweat. He put his hand on my face and said, “Then will you marry me?”
I shook my head. “I just wanted to make up for my mistake. I shouldn’t have thrown you to Shanning when you were drunk and had no resistance.” The light in his
eyes faded, and he withdrew his hand and turned his back to me. “You go out, and I will fight for myself.”
“The aphrodisiac of the Western Regions is very domineering. If you don’t understand it, you’ll lose it!” I struggled to break his shoulder, only to find that his eyes were wet and his face was full of grievances. When I looked at him, I choked up.
Like this, just. That’s good, honey.
Shen Yao shook off my hand and turned his back to sob. As soon as I thought of my secret work with him, of Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu, who had stayed in the Tang Dynasty, and of his father and mother and Yan Qi, who were waiting for rescue, I could not help but feel my anger burning. I pulled his collar and kissed him: “Marry, marry, marry you!”. With quick eyes and quick hands,
Shen Yao covered his mouth. “Really?”
“Really, really, really.” I was discouraged, but I was very upset. “Are you bored?” I didn’t finish my words, because Shen Yao turned over and pressed me under his body, blocking what he wanted to say
. His mouth and hands were moving at random, so that my heart was beating so hard that I forgot everything
and just wanted to sink into this strange and beating desire. After all,
Shen Yao did not take the last step. He said that there must be a formal wedding
.
I rolled my eyes. I didn’t know
who was flirting so much last night, but now I was very serious.
Wait
That’s not right!
If this thing can be solved by one person, then what am I doing?
Shen Yao closed his eyes and circled me into his arms. I could feel his smooth arms
and several scars in front of his chest.
“Sasha, there’s actually good news. We’ll be out of here soon.”
I sat up happily, suppressed my excitement, and asked in a low voice, “Really
? That’s great!”
Shen Yao half narrowed his eyes: “Should Sasha
express her gratitude to me for bringing this good news?”
“Huh?”? Oh, thank you.. Whoo, whoo, whoo.. Shen Yao took advantage of
me again. While he was dressed, I buried my head in the quilt and thought angrily, “Shen Yao is a bastard.”.
But I didn’t expect that the bastard didn’t come back for several days, so that the aggressive Shanning took me away smoothly.
(21)
I can’t look directly at Shanning, because Shen Yao whispered to me that Shanning and Qu Li probably like some more exciting activities.
This is why Shen Yao was tied up and given an aphrodisiac.
If Cully were here, I probably wouldn’t be able to look him in the eye.
I had mixed feelings and looked at the superior Shanning, not noticing whether she was scolding me as a fox spirit or a little bitch. I just thought that this girl was two years younger than me, and she was so good at playing.
“Long Anasha, I really regret that I didn’t just kill you in the Tang Dynasty.” Shanning’s gorgeous face twisted into a deep hatred. “Otherwise, how could you have the life to snatch Ah Chi’s heart today?” Kneeling numb,
I shifted my weight to the other leg, lifted my head and explained sincerely, “Would you believe me if I said I had nothing to do with Turey?”
Do you expect me to believe your lies? You pestered Ah so happily day and night that he broke his head and didn’t want to be with me.
“Actually, there are only nights, not days.” When I finished correcting it, I realized that the damn mouth was faster than brain. What fuel did I add to the fire!
But Shanning was so angry that he ordered me to be dragged to a small room. After a while, a burly Turkic man came in through the door and walked towards me.
I’m sure this Shanning is much more stupid than me. I just can’t speak too much sometimes, but this Shanning is simply mentally retarded. If you want to frame me for adultery, you can’t do it in her own camp. Besides, this man is much more ugly than Qu Li. At least he has to find someone who looks better.
Otherwise, my grand marriage princess, the serious lady of the great nobleman Trey, is it for his old age, or for him not to take a bath?
But the Turk was stared at all the way, there is no time to hide too much medicine, with one less one, or see if you can outwit it.
“This strong man..” I spoke slowly. “What does the Second Lady promise you? I promise you twice as much as the First Lady, who is loved by the tetrarch day and night!”
“Ha ha, Princess, you have sex with Ah Yao so often that you are not afraid of kidney deficiency. Ha ha!” The strong man laughed and suddenly changed into another honest and honest face.
“Shen, Shen Dahe?”
I What a shame.
“What are you doing here?”
Shen Dahe moved to sit next to me and patted me on the shoulder with great satisfaction: “I am also undercover, but I belong to the Wuqi clan, that is, the tribe of Wuqi Shanning.”. It happened that today they were sneakily picking people to do things, so they came over to have a look, and they really picked me. It’s a good thing it was me.
“Okay, so what do we do now?” I asked him with a shy face.
Shen Dahe scratched his head and said in embarrassment, “Then just wait.”. They must have invited Ah Yao. Tut, I didn’t expect that the Turks also had a house fight scene. Ah, women at all times and in all over the world are as terrible as ever.
But when he saw me look at him and spit out the words “I want to tell Xiaolan,” he was as quiet as a chicken.
About an hour later, Qu Li, played by Shen Yao, arrived. He kicked the door open with a livid face and carried me back to my room. Shan Ning and many people followed Shen Dahe to trot all the way.
He was probably very tired and anxious, his forehead was oozing sweat, his eyes were red and there were tears.
Only I can see.
(22)
Shanning was angry and cried.
With Shen Dahe as a “rebel” witness, Shen Yao did not listen to her false accusation and love confession at all, but severely rewarded her to Shen Dahe.
Shen Dahe almost jumped up to fight with Shen Yao. As soon as they left, Shen Dahe began to cry and scold Shen Yao.
“I just told you to keep an eye on her and Uchi and not to make any more mistakes. I didn’t tell you to do anything to her.” Shen Yao drove his brother out with an iron face. He quickly turned around and walked to my side. He buried my face in his chest and said very gently, “Sasha, you can’t stay any longer. I’ll send you back tomorrow.”
Shen Yao, when I had an accident in the Tang Dynasty, it was Shanning who sent a Turkic spy to rob me to a brothel. At that time, Qu Lixiao already wanted to marry with Yanqi. Under my father’s throne, only Xiaoliu and I were not married. In Yanqi, if Ah Jie was not married, Ah Mei could not get married. Therefore, I am the most likely candidate. She didn’t want me to marry Turey, so she planned it.
This might even kill two birds with one stone. I have lost my innocence, my reputation is ruined, and Tury will not marry me. I had an accident in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and I could also drive a wedge between the Tang Dynasty and Yanqi. Perhaps I could easily persuade Yanqi to defect without marriage.
“She hurt me, and I want to give it back.”
Shen Yao’s expression was filled with heartache: “How can Sasha pay it back?”
I can’t do what she does. She loves Turey the most, so let her watch Turey love others one by one.
Shen Yao did not speak. Shen Yao did not speak
when Shanning, with the face of a maid whom she used to bully, looked in horror at another “Shanning” in splendid clothes and jade belts and many women playing exciting games with the real Qu Li, and severely humiliated and hurt her. I
am this kind of person, and I will be vindictive. Anasha, the queen of Yanqi, is not an object that anyone
can bully.
“I’m leaving. General Shen must take care of himself.” I waved my hand and joined the
horse team back to Yanqi without looking at him.
Shen Yao will not know that I have repeatedly sent people to send the news
that I am in love with Qu Li, in order to deliberately provoke Shanning and let her find trouble for me. Once Shan Ning starts
, Shen Yao will send me back to Yanqi first.
Of course, all this is a dangerous move, even if I have prepared the poison and hidden weapons to protect myself.
But I have to go back to Yanqi.
(23)
When I saw Shen Yao again, I was already the new queen of Yanqi.
Shen Yao was ordered by the Tang Emperor to escort envoys to congratulate me on my coronation and renew the agreement
between the two countries. Within
a year and a half, the Western Turks were first defeated by the Tang army, withdrew from Yanqi, and then attacked by the Tang army
.
He seemed rougher than before, with blue stubble on his lips, and stood upright behind the envoy
, saluting me with an expressionless face.
I smiled gracefully, not caring that the man on the throne on the side reached out to cover me.
It’s Ibrahimovic, my husband and now the king’s husband.
That night, I prepared good wine in the palace, sent someone to wait for the banquet to break up, and took Ibrahimovic back to drink together. When Ibrahimovic came, he was already three points drunk, but it was still hard to hide his success.
I snuggled in his arms, poured a glass of wine, took a sip first, hooked his neck and handed it over. Holding his hand and stroking his bulging abdomen.
The night was silent, and the smoke rose softly from the incense burner.
A moment later, I suddenly chuckled.
Ibrahimovic frowned with blood on his face. “What are you laughing at?”
I couldn’t wait to get up. I took out my veil and wiped my hands carefully. I stared right at it, but I still felt dirty. “Because, ah, I can finally kill you today.”
“You..” As soon as Ibrahimovic had time to touch the hilt of the knife, he fell straight down, bleeding from his seven orifices.
I squatted on the ground, pulled out the knife for him, played with it in my hand, and then slowly inserted it into his heart. Looking at his pained face, I finally felt satisfied. People who
have just experienced the peak of power tend to turn in their grave. I kindly explained to him, “Yes, this is all acting.”. I’ve been preparing for this day for more than a year, and you really didn’t die unjustly.
How can it be wronged?
I thought you loved that girl so much that you would betray your vows to your mother and our friendship. But you saw that the Tang army was strong, and the Turks seemed to have no chance of winning. You killed your father and took over his power to control the royal family. You showed your loyalty to the Tang Dynasty several times. Holding the hilt, I slowly pushed the knife to the end. “Ibrahimovic, you are just a greedy coward.”. The girl was really pitiful. She was falsely accused of being a Turk spy and died under the sword of her beloved.
I stood up and looked at him with a little pity. The more cruel a person is, the easier it is to do great things. Ibrahimovic is such a person, but his brain is very nervous. For example, “You actually believe that I have completely fallen in love with you.”
Am I good at acting? From the extreme resentment and resistance at the beginning, to the heartbreak and struggle of every contact later, to the loosening of every inch after pregnancy, to the complete collapse, I would like to have children with you, and to govern together. Have I handled it very well?
“But who would love a man like you, not to mention an enemy who indirectly drove his father to his death?”
But you didn’t really believe me completely. It’s just that now you mistakenly think that you’re in power and that you’re getting carried away, which is why I’m taking advantage of it. If there is no accident, your confidants must have died under the knife of Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu, and they will be with you in the afterlife.
People are already dead. Why do I say so much? I put away the amulet I
touched and asked someone to drag Ibrahimovic’s body down. The moonlight in front of the
window is thick, but I feel relaxed that I haven’t had for a long time, although my heart is empty. Turning around, Zhang Yingjun’s face appeared in front of him.
I curled my lips and decided to send the guards of the palace to the Tang Dynasty to learn martial arts tomorrow.
Without waiting for me to speak, Shen Yao pushed me into a corner. He wanted to go further, but failed.
I covered my bulging stomach and looked up fiercely. “Bullying a pregnant woman, Shen Yao, what kind of man are you?”
Shen Yao reached out and rubbed my cheek, his eyes red. “Sasha, you lied to me.”
I turned my head away from him and said, “I am the king of a country. Please respect yourself.”
Shen Yao’s voice was low and hoarse: “There is no need to respect oneself when making a marriage. The most important thing is to cultivate feelings as soon as possible and promote peace between the two countries.”
And. And the object of marriage? What the hell is the Tang Dynasty doing? Is it difficult to send Shen Yao to me as a male concubine?
Ah, when I think about it, I actually think that Datang is a little stingy, and I don’t say that I will send a few more.
I swallowed nervously. “I have a husband.”
“Dead.”
Mother, how long did he look at it? Did he squat on the roof or at the window? The martial arts of the Central Plains are too superb! To learn, must learn! Send a delegation tomorrow. No, send a delegation later. Let’s go immediately! “I have a baby.”
Shen Yao looked down at my stomach. “I can be his father.”
My eyebrows were all twisted together: “I won’t have a second child!”
Shen Yao put his hands on the wall and said, “I accept it, and I am willing to accept it.”
Thoughts run fast, trying to find a suitable reason to refuse Shen Yao.
Wait, no, I’m the queen of Yanqi now. Do I need to find a reason
to refuse people? So I stiffly puffed out my chest, not seeing that Shen Yao’s expression became strange:
“I won’t!”
(24)
I really want to find a crack in the ground, but I can’t.
Because when Shen Yao saw my stomach deflating quickly with a fart, he pressed me like
crazy and kissed me fiercely.
I couldn’t push him, I just felt the world spinning, and when I woke up again, I had been moved
to bed.
Shen Yao kissed my face heavily, my earlobes and neck, but suddenly stopped and buried his
head in my shoulder socket.
“Why didn’t you wait for me?”
“Why did you lie to me?”
I listened to him choking, and this was the second time that Shen Yao cried in front of me. There was a wound on
his body, several inches long, which was shocking even when it was healed, and it was easy to think of a deeply embedded sword. I saw these wounds many years ago when I was peeking at Shen Yao’s bath. At that time, my heart ached so much that I shed tears, but Shen Dahe told me that Shen Yao never cried, as if he would not cry or say anything no matter how painful it was. The gauze clothes on his
shoulders were soaked, and I think he was really hurt by me. After a long
silence, I finally spoke calmly: “At that time, Ibrahimovic killed General Yi, controlled my father, and planned to set up another puppet.”. Unfortunately, my brothers and sisters are scattered all over the place, and it is difficult to contact them, so my father, under heavy imprisonment, can only let the undercover agents in the Western Turks contact me and let me return to the court to fight against Ibrahimovic. Now
that Ibrahimovic wants to curry favor with the Tang Dynasty, with me as the logical successor and the voice of Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu in the Tang Dynasty, he has to weigh the consequences of re-establishing the new king. My father and I joined hands in this game. He pretended that he was afraid of being thrown off the throne and forced me to marry Ibrahimovic. He promised that he would ask for a reward from the Tang Dynasty and formally let the Yi family and the Long family rule Yanqi together.
“In order to convince Ibrahimovic, my father became more and more crazy, indulged in debauchery, and poisoned himself slowly to ensure that the throne was handed over to me smoothly.” In
those months, the most common thing I did with my father was to quarrel. I accused him of failing his mother and breaking his promise to his officials and people. My father smashed the palace and wanted to expel me and break off the relationship between father and daughter. When Ibrahimovic came, my father smiled and explained to him that it was just angry words. He was careful and pleasant. Until he died, we were all acting, and only crying and mourning were real.
I took a deep breath: “Shen Yao, I can’t wait for you.”. As for lying to you, I’m sorry. I have no choice.
Shen Yao put his forehead against mine. He closed his eyes and murmured, “I’m the one who should be sorry. I wasn’t by your side when you were in the most difficult time.”. I will be with you in good fortune, in misfortune, in life, and in death.
“I won’t let you leave me again.”
I also closed my eyes, my nose was suddenly blocked with my chest, and my tears burst out: “Don’t, don’t like me late.”
(25)
Shen Dahe asked me to drink.
He took out a red silk bag from his bosom and threw it to me, saying that I didn’t go to the wedding at the beginning of the year. Xiaolan left a wedding candy specially for him to bring me. Originally, Xiaolan wanted to come with her this time, but before she left, she found that she was pregnant, so she gave up. Speaking of children,
Shen Dahe laughed like a fool. He has always been like this, in the past, every time he saw Xiaolan, the smile in his eyes could not be hidden.
I opened the silk bag, which contained ten pieces of sugar wrapped in red paper, and took a bite, sweet and crisp to the bottom of my heart.
I mumbled my drink and said, “That’s nice.”
“Princess, I never really understood.” Shen Dahe became serious. “Why don’t you accept Ah Yao?”
I knew he must be a lobbyist for Shen Yao this time.
I don’t know. At that time, when I said I wanted to give up, I felt that I had exhausted all my enthusiasm and courage, and I didn’t want to continue to be humble and suffer from an impossible dream. Besides, many people in the Tang looked down on Yanqi.
I stood on the edge of the terrace, squinting at the bustling capital, with the countryside in the distance, dotted with scattered houses and bonfires. This is the land where I was born and raised, my hometown, the place of attachment, and the place where I can’t be desecrated.
Shen Yao is one of them. Perhaps I can love humbly, but I can’t allow it. I can’t even ask for equal self-respect.
“Later..” I clasped my knuckles on the wall of the stage. Too many things have happened between us, and we can’t go back to the beginning. I think what he likes is the innocent and lovely Anasha, not the Queen of Yanqi, who is full of calculation and lies and has blood on her hands. Everyone
has limitations, of the times, of the class. Yao is no exception. To be fair, choosing to follow your relationship with the princess from the heart is tantamount to breaking through all the cognition and pursuit and finding a new beginning for him. It was a difficult choice. Although it was a little late, he still chose you. From the moment he made this decision, Ah Yao never flinched.
“The respect that the princess wants, I think he has given you with practical action.”
I turned my head and said, “What do you mean?”
Undercover Western Turk, he took the initiative to invite, but in exchange for the safety of you and Yanqi. After you left, Ah Yao had a narrow escape from death and finally came back from the Western Turks.
He probably won’t tell you that in order to be able to be with you one day, he asked the emperor for a decree to give up the position of prince and the protection of Shen Fu. When the matter of Yan Qi is over, he will resign and no longer become an official. I asked him if he would regret giving up what he had wanted for many years. He said that nothing in this world is more important than you, and he would like to go with you to the end of the world to see the great rivers and mountains in this world, and he would like to stay in Yanqi as long as you like.
“Princess.” Shen Dahe also leaned forward. Feelings must go forward with people. No one’s feelings will be confined to a certain moment, a certain stage. Just as he loved you before, he loves you now. No one can judge for the other person whether a relationship changes or not. It only counts if two people say it together.
I murmured, “It’s only when two people say it together.”
Shen Dahe nodded and pointed to a corner of the palace. “Princess, Ah Yao is waiting for you. You should talk about it.” The
cool breeze blew across my face, and I suddenly remembered that one day in the court of the Western Turks, Shen Yao suddenly came back wounded, but refused to tell me why. I was so anxious that I scolded him several times. He just gently wiped away my tears and told me not to worry.
Sasha, if I were discovered and died here, I should only be able to set up a tomb. When the time comes, I will ask you to set up half of my tomb in Yanqi and half in the Tang Dynasty.
I almost burst into tears: “Why, why are we here?”
He held me in his arms, put his firm chin on my forehead, wiped my tears with one hand, and said very gently, “I want to see my beloved girl and her beloved family and people live a good life.” I immediately turned around and ran in the direction of Shen Dahe. Sure enough,
Shen Yao was there.
I ran to him and put my hands around his neck. He has a nice smell. I
like the smell for five years.
“Shen Yao, you don’t have to wait. I like you. I’ve always liked you. I want to be with you now
!”
I hurriedly untied the jewel belt around his neck and stood on tiptoe to kiss him on the
lips.
Shen Yao held me tightly, and he kissed me back gently, his eyelashes trembling and two tears
falling.
(Follow-up)
I slipped away from Yan Qi.
To be exact, I slipped away with Shen Yao. Before I slipped away, I put the crown and the amulet
on the pillow of Xiaowu, who was dizzy by Shen Yao.
I’m sorry, Xiao Wu. Although you don’t like to be the king, sister, I’m really going
to be the king. Now Yanqi has recovered well, and I have not failed to live up to my father’s instructions
. Shen Yao and
I are going to see a wider world and give birth to a string of monkeys.
Shen Dahe knew our idea and gave us a very small tent, which he said was a must in the field, keeping warm and rainproof.
Well, now I’m lying in the desert with Shen Yao, looking out at the stars. Looking at the stars for many days in a row is really a bit boring. I looked at Shen Yao faintly and quietly took his belt away while he recognized the constellation.
I quickly straddled him, ready to do Shen Yao thoroughly. Who let him get angry every day and put it out because he was not clean. People
in the Central Plains are fastidious and annoying.
When I was about to kiss him, Shen Yao suddenly began to twist. He said it would take a few more days.
I don’t know yet. He must have learned some tricks from Shen Dahe to please me. Gimmick I want, in front of this jade face Han man Lang Jun, I want now.
So he began to strip him. “What are you waiting for? Can’t you do that?”
Shen Yao was stunned for quite a while, then suddenly rolled over and pressed me down, exhaling in my ear: “That won’t wait. Try it now and see if I can do it.”
When I was panting and ready to meet him, Shen Yao stopped, bent over and asked me hoarsely, “Sasha, will you marry me?”
“Oh, marry, marry, what are you doing at this juncture?”
Shen Yao laughed as brightly as the stars outside.
But the star outside belongs to the world, and he belongs only to me.
I love him.
I am Shen Dahe, an investigator of historical materials.
I live in an era when scientists have found ways to travel through time and space. My job is to travel through time and space, go back to the past, verify historical facts, and compile objective, unconcealed and hidden historical records.
In order to prevent shuttles from arbitrarily tampering with history, or causing a butterfly effect due to a small act, which deviates from the original development of history, this technology is not open to the public, and can only be used by scientists and maintenance workers authorized by the top level of the Time and Space Administration.
This technology also has a flaw for unknown reasons-workers who need to travel through time and space often have a short life span, and some people do not even live for three years from the day they enter the shuttle channel.
But it is also because of this that workers who sign confidential agreements can get a luxurious compensation opportunity when their career and personal life are coming to an end.
You can put forward all your wishes, and the Time and Space Administration will examine and approve them at its discretion.
Most of my colleagues wish to leave a lot of wealth or resources to their families, but I only want to go to the Tang Dynasty outside my duties.
I thought my request would be rejected directly. Unexpectedly, the Bureau approved and even allowed me to carry some modern equipment with me, but when they left, they warned me that if I did not follow the rules, I would be obliterated by the maintenance personnel. The faint life monitoring chip on
my wrist suggests that my life is less than a month old. But it doesn’t matter, after the shuttle, the time passing on me will become extremely slow. The ten-day period granted by the
Bureau is worth ten years.
It’s enough. After I
came to the Tang Dynasty, by mistake, I recognized an adoptive mother, who was the sister of the wife of Shen Guogong, the founding hero of the Tang Dynasty. As a result, I also got to know Shen Yao, the eldest son of Shen Guogong.
Although things didn’t go as orderly and dramatic as the plan I had listed in my diary, I finally got the result I wanted. In line with
my imagination, Shen Yao is a handsome and steady young man. Although he was born in a high family, he is not a bit pompous. I am satisfied
to have such an ancestor.
Soon, because of the congenial temperament and several common hardships, my ancestors and I became brothers of blood alliance. When
a Yao left Chang’an and invited himself to garrison in the Western Regions, his marriage had just suffered a setback. In the
old days, the Lushi, a powerful family, looked down on the noble military generals who were born in the wilderness. They would rather give their daughter to the youngest son of the Cui family in Boling, who only thought highly of himself, than marry her to the eldest son of Shen Guogong, who was good at literature and martial arts. This failed courtship severely dampened the young man’s inner spirit and pride.
In the end is the occupational disease, I also very much want to see the history of the real western countries, so I went with him.
Later, I learned that this was the most correct decision in my life.
Because I met Ranchema, my little Rancho.
Speaking of it, although I felt amazing at the first sight of Xiaolan, I fell in love with her after a long time.
At that time, she followed Princess Anasha of Yanqi and stayed outside the general’s mansion, hoping to see Ah Yao.
The little princess was only about sixteen or seventeen years old. Dressed in an exotic red dress, wearing a string of bright and delicate sapphires on her forehead and a small braid, she sat on the stone steps at the gate of the General’s Office. Her big eyes stared at the door expectantly. Her face was very cheerful, and occasionally she hummed a tune.
I cannot understand.
But I have a translator for ancient small languages.
It’s a love song.
I gloated over Ah Yao, who was quietly coming back from the back door, and told him the lyrics of the bold Yanqi love song, waiting to see him blush.
Yao glanced at me and walked away coldly.
Ancestors are good at everything, but their character is too boring and boring.
The little princess often traveled from Yanqi to the Anxi Frontier Command, riding camels for horses, walking in the desert and Gobi Desert for more than half a month, often dragging all kinds of gifts and specialties to Ah Yao, and sometimes even blowing outside the gate for half a day. In the long and warm exotic music, I think, with this heart, as long as a man is moved, but a Yao is not moved, always avoiding her, the gifts sent are not accepted. If I hadn’t
known that Ah Yao wanted to marry Lu Sanniang before, I would have doubted whether he was a good man and whether he needed to keep a safe distance from him.
The little princess was not discouraged. In order to catch up with her sweetheart, she persisted for three years.
Of course, Xiaolan, a silly girl, is exactly the same as her princess. She is not ambiguous about who she likes. At that time, I could hardly hold back my feelings. I was hesitating to tell her my heart. Who knew that Xiaolan had opened her mouth first in front of the guards of General Manchuria. Her eyes were burning and her face was full of expectation, as if she were saying, “Don’t say no.”. That
‘s it. She’s got it.
We got along very well, but Xiaolan refused to stay and had to share the joys and sorrows with her princess, working hard between the two places. As a result, I had to endure the loneliness of long-distance love, and whenever I thought of the hardship of the two girls’long journey, I could only
stare at Ah Yao’s dead face plaintively. Had it not been for my concern for brotherhood, I think I would have knocked him unconscious with a hammer, given him to the little princess, and hugged the little orchid.
Brothers are like clothes, and wives are ribs.
Before I completely lost my mind and became a person who valued sex more than friends, Xiaolan finally agreed to go back with me. I was just waiting to ask her to marry me, and this time, I had to keep her. The reason why
his girlfriend relented was that the little princess was determined to follow the tributary envoys to the Tang Dynasty in order to pursue Shen Yao.
Yao can’t avoid it. She is often teased by the little princess, but she has no alternative. However, I can feel that the stubborn iceberg of a Yao seems to be melting slowly.
But I didn’t tell Xiaolan good news, because I knew that the story had no good ending. After
arriving in Chang’an, Xiaolan agreed to my proposal, but at the same time, the little princess broke up with Ah Yao completely. Xiaolan and I went to see her off. Her eyes were swollen and covered with red silk, as if she had cried all night. But she just smiled and said that the past was gone and there was nothing to regret.
Xiaolan bent over my bosom and wiped her tears. She said that when the little princess went back this time, she should marry an important minister according to the will of King Yanqi.
“I hope Anasha is happy.”. I patted her on the back in a slightly empty tone. On the day the
little princess left, I went to the martial arts field to look for a Yao, but I saw that his breath was unstable, his sword was messy, and his eyebrows were covered with a layer of doubts and bitterness that could not be dispelled. Yao, have you really thought about it? After this parting, perhaps you and Anasha will never meet
again.
“The Great River.” Shen Yao withdrew his sword and turned his back, so that I could no longer see his face
. “You’re worrying too much.”
I was silent, and I would rather that I was worrying too much.
Less than a year later, I heard that Yanqi had changed, King Yanqi had been imprisoned, and his
four princesses had been married to the Western Turks, who were the ministers
of the Western Turks’war faction, the old enemies of the Tang Dynasty, and the children of the Quli family. The five princes and four princesses
of Yanqi were lucky enough to escape from the Yanqi Palace Incident and asked for help from the Tang Dynasty. When Emperor Tang
promised to fight, Ah Yao was appointed as a lieutenant, and as soon as the renegotiation of the
marriage contract between the Shen family and the Lu family had taken shape, it was delayed. When
I saw Ah Yao, he was rubbing his sword, his eyes were red, his hand was shaking, and he didn’t
say a word.
“Ah Yao, I’ll go with you.”
After a while, he shook his head. “No need. This is a real battlefield. It’s extremely dangerous.”
“I can stay in the trench camp. I won’t cause you any trouble.” I pretended to be relaxed and said,
“It’s not for you. It’s Xiaolan who wants me to go. She’s very concerned about Anasha.”
Yao wiped his sword with his hand.
Since the little princess left, our brothers have tacitly never mentioned her again.
I’m afraid he will be sad.
I guess he’s afraid he can’t keep his heart down.
Another year, the Tang Dynasty formally sent its troops to attack the Western Turks, and the Tang army won a great victory in this battle. On the day of the invasion of the Western Turk tent, the flag of the Tang army was planted in the tent, and the last threat to the western territory of the Tang Dynasty was completely eliminated. The mountains and seas in the army were jubilant and worshipped, but only Ah Yao was not seen.
I searched for a long time before I found Ah Yao in Qu Liji’s camp.
He was half kneeling on the ground, his sword was deep in the earth. Although he looked up at me, his eyes were confused, his eyes were full of tears, and his hands were bleeding. On
the bloodless face, his lips opened and closed several degrees, but he could not speak.
I walked heavily past Ah Yao, but I didn’t intend to help him. Some things, can only carry their own, carry the past, is a bright future, can not carry the past, is a lifetime of knots, can not open, can not forget, suffering in pain.
“Ah Yao.” Remembering the purpose of my coming here, I finally couldn’t bear to say, “The Hetian Jade Rabbit that the princess gave you that day was hidden in the pillow core that you didn’t like to use.”
The hand that held the blade pinched it more tightly, allowing the sharp blade to gnaw at its master’s will. After
returning to Chang’an, I told Xiaolan a story in which the little princess in her heart got eternal freedom and sincere love.
Xiao Lan’s eyes sparkled, and she held tightly in her hands the precious stone beads that I had asked the new king of Yanqi to give me. They were the old things of the little princess. Her face was covered with tears of joy and sadness: I knew that the princess was so good that Shen Yao would regret it. Fortunately, the ending was satisfactory. But. Where has the princess gone? Will she come to see me?
I hugged her and said, “Of course I will, but she and Ah Yao are too playful. Maybe we’ll have to wait a while.”
But at the thought of Ah Yao’s lonely figure, standing desolately on the edge of the desert, under the wind-eroded gate tower, I couldn’t help but raise my hand and hug Xiao Lan more tightly with both arms: I don’t have much time, and I can’t leave you a child. Xiaolan, are you sure you don’t regret it? “Don’t say any more,” said
Xiao Lan, pouting.
“I told the princess that we would have a baby soon, and she was very happy.” I swallowed my jealousy and said softly, “After I die in a few years, you can find a good man to remarry and have a child, so that the princess won’t say I cheated her later.” With a “hum” of displeasure
, Xiaolan turned her head angrily and looked out of the window at the starry sky again, probably missing her princess.
She would never know that the four princesses of Yanqi had shown their determination to the motherland in the most tragic and strong way. On the eve of the war, she assassinated Turey, and then had her throat cut by her abusive husband.
She fell to the ground, red with blood, red with the white clothes of the dead.
In fact, Yao didn’t even see the body of the princess. Before he went, the soldiers of Yanqi had sent their princess back to Yanqi with grief.
Changan a farewell, unexpectedly forever.
Xiaolan will never know the truth, because the other hero of the story will be stationed in the Western Regions for a long time until he is buried.
After lulling Xiaolan to sleep, I opened my diary, and after recording the facts of the Tang Dynasty’s World War I against the Western Turks, the tip of my pen suddenly stopped. I
remember when I was in middle school, the tomb of a general of the Tang Dynasty was excavated in the northwest. The simple tomb was empty, except for a pair of dry bones, only a piece of armor, a long sword, and a half-fist-sized first-class Hetian jade inlaid with rubies.
I couldn’t take my eyes off the TV, listening to the narration about the life of the owner of the tomb. I shouted at my parents, “Mom and Dad, come and see, this man is our ancestor!”! I’ve seen it in the family tree of my hometown! The name
“Shen Yao” appears in the most dazzling position of the second generation of the Shen clan’s genealogy, but it is lonely and has no wife, children, or heirs. At the age of
fourteen, I couldn’t help wondering why he went to the northwest? Why is there a white jade rabbit in the tomb of the general?
These initial doubts led me to the door of the industry I loved very much in the future.
Now I choose to come back because I want to ask for an answer. Late
at night, I rubbed my eyebrows, went up to the couch, and held my wife in my arms. I think, I have no regrets in this life, has been complete, this world for me, is very love.
