Thousand Miles of Bright Moonlight

On the endless snowfields stand undulating hills, and a clear river winds out of the valley and flows across the plain.

Many felt tents almost hidden in the snow were scattered beside the river under the hills. The Khan arrived from Princess Wen Zhao, whom Wei had married, and the people in the tents swarmed out, rejoicing.

The front of the tent was crowded with people, laughing and laughing everywhere.

But it is a strange language, a strange accent.

The Li brothers and sisters stood in front of the tooth tent, relatively speechless.

Just like a few years ago, they found each other's identities, stood on the bow, staring at each other silently.

Chibi Jitou, a glance of smoke.

The wooden door of the tooth tent opened from the inside, Ye Lu Khan walked out, his gaze fell on Yaoying, who was still unconcealed, with a tired face, she rubbed her hands with joy, her old face was full of ravines, and she patted Li Xuanzhen. On the shoulder, smiled and said: "Princess Wen Zhao arrived safely, the prince can rest assured."

With that said, without waiting for Li Xuanzhen to speak, she graciously opened the curtain and asked Yaoying to enter the account.

Without squinting, Yaoying walked into the tooth tent from the gloomy Li Xuanzhen.

After Li De set the wedding date, Li Xuanzhen led the army to Liangzhou. At this moment, he should have guarded Liangzhou. How could he return to Yelu's tribe with Yelu Khan?

Does he have to confirm with his own eyes that she and Yelu Khan are married to be at ease?

Yelu Khan followed the tooth tent, seemingly at a loss, laughed dryly, and said: "The princess is tired all the way, take a good rest tonight, and the wedding will be held tomorrow night."

He is not proficient in speaking Chinese, and he is slow to bite.

Yaoying looked down and said nothing, showing exhaustion.

Yelu Khan looked at the white and delicate skin exposed between her neck, her heart must be softer than mutton fat, I wish I could taste it right away, and see her eyebrows full of fatigue, distressed, heart Thinking that the Han princess was tender and shy, exquisite about etiquette, and too young to be too rough to frighten her, she rubbed her hands and took the person away.

As soon as the tent door closed, Yaoying sank down on the felt blanket, and Tali and Ayi knelt aside, taking off the heavy corolla on her head and shaking.

Tali said sympathetically: "Princess, although Khan is old, he is in good health and he loves you very much. The people in Yelu's department say Khan has never been so considerate to a lady."

Yaoying didn't speak, she took off the hairpin and jade from the sideburns, and her head was scattered with jet black and green silk.

She was sore in her bones and didn't want to think about anything. She leaned on the couch, closed her eyes and slumbered.

Just get a good night's sleep, and get enough energy to deal with this unfamiliar environment.

There was a noise from the tent door, and a moon-shaped scimitar opened the curtain, the wind and snow poured in, and the black leather boots stepped into the tent.

Yaoying heard the sound, opened her eyes, glanced at the pair of boots, and signaled Hu and Xie Qing to go out.

Only her and Li Xuanzhen remained in the account.

Yaoying was still curled up on the side of the couch, pouring down like a waterfall of colorful green silk, covered with half a blanket, like a lazy cat.

"Is the eldest brother staying to watch the ceremony?"

This plain tone was as if she was not going to marry an old alien leader.

The black leather boots moved in front of Yaoying, Li Xuanzhen leaned over, grabbed her wrist, forcing her to look up, Fengmu stared at her unblinkingly, and said: "Seven sisters, I will give you another choice. Chance."

Yaoying's eyes raised slightly, her eyes clear.

"Okay, I choose the eldest brother, can the eldest brother take me back to Chang'an?"

Li Xuanzhen was stunned.

Yaoying smiled and said mockingly: "Eldest brother, you can't give me a chance to choose now, Ye Lu's department did not miss any appointment. Tomorrow is the wedding. Could the eldest brother want to ruin the diplomatic relations between the two countries?"

"You are not such a person."

Li Xuanzhen couldn't do such a thing, nor would he offend Ye Lubu and anger Li De for the sake of a mere one. She was not Zhu Luyun.

Yaoying glanced at the direction of the tent, "You don't have that ability either."

This is Ye Lu's site, he can't take her away.

Li Xuanzhen looked at Yaoying silently, undercurrents in her phoenix eyes.

"Eldest brother, I have chosen that year. I am Li Zhongqian's younger sister. If the eldest brother harms my brother, I will be at odds with you."

Li Xuanzhen held his fingers tighter.

At that time, his fingers squeezed Yaoying's fragile neck tightly. As long as he exerted a little force, she would die on his hand.

He and Li Zhongqian, she can only choose one.

Either completely sever relations with Li Zhongqian and Xie Manyuan and live as A Yue, or die with them.

She couldn't even breathe, and she still chose Li Zhongqian without hesitation.

In the past few years, he embarrassed Li Zhongqian again and again and forced her to choose again and again. Knowing that she would not say the answer he wanted to hear, he still asked it again and again.

Li Xuanzhen's fingers were hot.

Yaoying lowered her head, pushing away his fingers little by little with cold fingertips.

She once thought that she could reason with Li Xuanzhen, but later discovered that everything was in vain. In front of the strong, the reason of the weak is the most useless thing.

Tang's phrase "kill them all" is Li Xuanzhen's heart demon. Thanks to Manyuan, Li Zhongqian, Li De, the Xie clan, and the Li clan, no matter whether they are innocent or deserved, they can't escape.

So she didn't want to waste her tongue.

What if Li Xuanzhen is the Son of Destiny?

Li Zhongqian will never leave her alone, and she will never give up Li Zhongqian, it is truly a desperate situation, the big deal will die with Li Xuanzhen.

Li Xuanzhen looked down at Yaoying, without saying a word or moving, Junyi's brows and eyes were a bit hideous.

Yaoying leaned on the edge of the couch, her chin resting on her arm, her expression indifferent.

"I'm tired, the eldest brother is free."

She closed her eyes, her thick eyelashes quivered, and after a while she seemed to really fall asleep, breathing evenly.

Li Xuanzhen stood in the tent, his eyes were turbulent, and his hands slowly clenched into fists.

He shouldn't go to Chibi.

That way, I won't meet her, I won't feel sorry for her, I won't think of taking good care of her, and I won't suffer between her mother's instructions and her.

He actually begged the enemy's daughter to choose him.

And she dismissed him.

Li Xuanzhen trembled all over, as if awakened in a dream, suddenly turned around and strode away, her eyes red.

After a while, Xie Qing entered the account and told Yaoying that Li Xuanzhen had left.

Yelu Khan repeatedly tried to stay and asked Li Xuanzhen to attend the wedding before leaving. He also said not to Mu Tie waiting to fight with him. He said that there was still military affairs in Liangzhou and he left with his soldiers.

Yaoying hummed faintly.

Xie Qing sat cross-legged next to the felt blanket, his eyes fell on Yaoying's snow-white wrist, where there were a few faint fingerprints.

"What happened to the princess and the prince?"

Yaoying slowly said: "It's nothing...I have been in poor health since I was a child. Someone said that there was a genius doctor in Chibi who had excellent medical skills. Brother immediately took me to Chibi for medical treatment. At that time, Chibi was under the treatment of Nanchu, the genius doctor. Only to save the subjects of Nanchu. Brother Pei had previously attacked Chibi with Governor Pei. He was afraid of revealing his identity and the genius doctor was unwilling to save me, so he asked the servant to take me to the house for medical treatment..."

The dialects of Jing Nan and Chibi are very similar. Yaoying spoke in a decent Chibi dialect. The genius doctor did not doubt her identity. He saw only a few old servants with her, kept her at home, and treated her with care.

The genius doctor's medical skills are indeed excellent, and Yaoying has been living in his house for several months, and her complexion is getting better and better.

It was there that Yaoying met a young man who was seriously injured.

"He said his name is Yang Changsheng, from Nanchu."

Yaoying smiled.

When she was a child, she had poor legs and feet and didn't go out very often. Li Xuanzhen always hated Xie's family. She never met with Xie's family. Moreover, she often fought abroad. The brothers and sisters knew each other's existence, but they had never seen each other.

They all pretended to be from Nanchu. Li Xuanzhen had a wound on her face. She didn't recognize Li Xuanzhen, and it was even impossible for Li Xuanzhen to recognize her.

The genius doctor told Yaoying to move more. She often helped the genius to run errands to help take care of the patients. Seeing Li Xuanzhen alone and unattended, she took the initiative to take care of him.

After going back and forth, they met as A Yue and Yang Changsheng.

Later, the wound on Li Xuanzhen's face healed, and Yaoying also joked with him: "Brother Changsheng, your eyebrows are a bit like my brother, and your size is about the same."

Li Xuanzhen frowned, "Your brother left you in Chibi for a few months, don't you feel angry?"

Yaoying lightly beat him dissatisfiedly: "My brother doesn't care about me, he has important things to do, and when I grow up, I can take care of myself!"

Li Xuanzhen smiled and bowed his head to make a clay figure for Yaoying.

Yang Changsheng, whom Yaoying knew, was taciturn, but he was righteous. At that time, there was a month of heavy rain in Chibi, and the flood was raging. He went into the water to save his life despite his serious injuries, and was almost swept away by the flood because of prostration.

Therefore, when they returned to Weijun by boat together and saw Li Zhongqian and Tang family waiting on the shore, and realized each other's identities, Yaoying did not immediately avoid Li Xuanzhen.

She always felt that since a person can save a stranger regardless of his own safety, he should also be able to deal with hatred.

Li Xuanzhen’s reaction was much greater than that of Yaoying. He stood on the bow, glanced at Li Zhongqian on the shore, and then at her. The smile on his face became stiff and cold, and the clouds in his eyes suddenly caught her. , Pinch her neck.

Yaoying almost died in his hands.

To this day, she still remembers the feeling when Li Xuanzhen's rough and cold fingers strangled her neck.

Xie Qing commented blankly: "The prince is too stubborn."

Yaoying rubbed her wrist and smiled, "Okay, let's not talk about these things."

She put her mind back on her situation: "A Qing, what did the prince do that night?"

Xie Qing recovered and said, "I've inquired about it. The prince looted several carts of goods that night."

Yaoying frowned.

After the meeting that day, the prince said that he had robbed several herdsmen. She observed carefully and found that the prince and his entourage had all put on new saddles and harnesses. How could ordinary herders afford such an expensive saddle?

"I suspect that the prince killed the royal caravan."

Xie Qingmu looked surprised: "The people of Ye Lu's department said that no one would dare to rob the caravan with the flag of Buddha."

Yaoying's mouth twitched: "Others dare not. That's because they know the current affairs and advance and retreat. The prince is not that kind of person."

She had always wondered before, why did the powerful Yelu tribe fall silently?

The reason is likely to be here. The prince is greedy and cruel, and has angered too many tribes. Now he is very likely to rob the subjects of Tamoraka. Even if the royal court does not retaliate, the surrounding tribes will come here as an excuse. attack.

Yaoying pondered for a while, and told Xie Qing: "You have a chance to see what those big trucks are."

Xie Qing should be.

The next morning, before dawn, there was a lively voice from outside the tent.

Tali served Yaoying to freshen up and told her that the people of the tribe were preparing for the evening wedding. There would be a bonfire in front of the big tent at night, and the men and women of the tribe would come to congratulate them.

Yaoying put on her wedding gown, and Tali pulled up her long hair and braided her hair.

She looked at her slightly pale face in the bronze mirror, ignored the fear and anxiety in her heart, and encouraged herself over and over again.

Xie Qing got into the tent and motioned Tali and Ayi to go out and walked behind Yaoying: "Princess, I found this."

Yaoying turned around and saw that he took out a blood-stained banner from his arms.

Exquisite golden lines can still be seen on the dirty fabric.

As expected, the prince was still not convinced, and looted the caravan.

Yaoying's scheming flew: "I have to tell Yelu Khan about this... I can't tell Yelu Khan. Yelu Khan may not believe me, but when I'm provoking a discord and the news leaks out, the prince must retaliate... Qing, you find some more evidence and reveal this to the second prince."

Tali said that the first prince and the second prince have never been at peace.

Xie Qing responded and turned to go out.

The second prince did not live up to Yaoying's expectations, and after hearing the wind, he immediately reported to Yelu Khan.

Yelu Khan was furious, and sent someone to call the prince: "You actually robbed and killed the caravan of Buddha, you are bringing disaster to our Yelu department!"

The prince didn’t panic when the matter was revealed: "I have killed all people, and even the livestock. Who knows that I am the one who killed them?"

The eldest son is so ignorant of the heights of the sky and the earth, Yelu Khan became more and more angry: "Zoo God is on the top, if the anger of the Buddha descends on Yelu's tribe, you will be the sinner of the entire Yelu's tribe!"

The prince said indifferently, "Buddha is far in the Western Regions, so he can't show his supernatural powers and suddenly fall from the sky! Besides, what if he comes? He has the ability to fight me for three hundred rounds!"

Ye Lu Khan turned purple with anger, and was about to draw his sword when footsteps came from outside the tent.

"Khan, Don't Mu Tie is back!"

Ye Lu Khan immediately said, "Don't come in here, Mu Tie."

Don't Mu Tie stepped into the big tent, frowning slightly: "Khan, why did Prince Wei leave suddenly? Didn't you say you want to fight with me?"

Yelu Khan was so devastated at this time, and said casually: "He and Princess Wen Zhao were not born of the same mother, and there is no love between them. After a few words with Princess Wen Zhao, they left..."

Bie Mu Tie's faint golden eyes flickered twice, and a fierce color flashed across his eyes.

Yelu Khan told him about the prince's looting of the caravan: "Bie Mu Tie, what do you think? You are from the Western Regions. Will the words of the scourge really work?"

Bie Mu Tie looked at the prince and smiled, "Although the prince is reckless, but there is a saying that is correct, the Buddha is far in the Western Regions, and he has never left the holy city in these years. The prince just killed a few Hushang’s **** is fine, Buddha will not fight for this."

Yelu Khan glared at the prince fiercely and sneered: "I hope so."

The wedding is still going on as planned.

Starting at noon, the men and women of the tribe began to dance with drums and sing songs, laughing and noisy. When night fell, most of them were half drunk, and a raging fire lit up in the camp. Yaoying was helped out of the tent.

Countless eyes fell on her, and the eyes of several young princes were unconcealed one by one.

Yaoying once again noticed the sight that had made her shudder.

She swept away, and a tall and strong young man stood beside Yelu Khan, with deep eagle nose, eyes like torches, and a pair of light golden pupils reflected by the fire.

The look in his eyes smiling at this moment made Yaoying's anxiety even stronger.

She calmed her mind and finished the worship service under Tali's guidance. Just as she was about to get up, Yelu Khan, who was opposite, suddenly made a few faint noises in her throat, and fell on her back.

Everyone was shocked, Bie Mu Tie rushed forward and hugged Yelu Khan, and smiled: "Khan is drunk!"

Several princes looked at each other, rushed forward, and helped Yelu Khan back to the tent.

Before turning around, the prince took a deep look at Yaoying, and the corners of his mouth were slanted: "Beauty, don't worry, if my father sweats this disease and can't help him, I will cherish you for him. Tonight, you Just rest in the tent."

As he said, his face suddenly sank, and his eyes revealed a fierce look, "The princess's guards are not Yelu Warriors' opponents. Don't act rashly later."

He wiped the corners of his mouth and walked into the tent with a big laugh.

Yaoying stood in the crowd, cold all over, looking around for a week.

Yelu Khan’s personal soldiers happened to be absent, and the princes’ personal soldiers had separated, and the bonfire was still burning, but the cheerful atmosphere had long since dissipated, replaced by the tension and depression of the storm.

Yaoying returned to the tent, immediately took off her wedding clothes, and asked Xie Qing to count the people.

"Ye Lu Khan doesn't seem to be drunk, something will happen to Ye Lu's department tonight."

She thought that reminding Chief Yelu would allow him to prepare early, but she didn't expect something to happen in the evening. It seemed that the prince was already prepared.

No wonder the prince dared to tease her so blatantly along the way.

In the eyes of the prince, she had long been in his pocket.

Xie Qing quickly summoned his soldiers, dozens of them stood in battle, and firmly guarded Yaoying's tent.

Others did not come to inquire. Several clan elders of the tribe went to Yelu Khan's tent surrounded by the second prince, third prince and other righteous sons.

After a while, there were shouts of killing from the tent.

The knight in ambush drew his sword and rushed into the battle. The soldiers of several princes roared and fought, the cold light flickered, and the flesh and blood flew across.

Tali and Ayi huddled and shivered in the corner of the tent.

An hour later, the prince was covered in blood, and he strode out of the tent holding the heads of several younger brothers: "They want to assassinate father Khan while his father Khan is sick. They have been killed by my father Khan's soldiers!"

Ye Lu was respected by the strong and saw the prince killing other princes. Except for the soldiers of the princes, everyone else knelt down and crawled at the feet of the prince.

Bie Mu Tie walked out of the tent, stood beside the prince, and respectfully invited him in.

The prince threw his head and turned around to pay.

Others stood up one after another, and began to tidy up the mess in an orderly manner. The heads of several princes and elders were thrown into the fire, and they burst into flames.

Xie Qing's face was tense, and he stood in front of the tent: "Princess, what should we do?"

Yelu Khan is not dead yet, but he is not sober. The prince killed the other princes. Now everyone in the tribe listens to the prince's orders. Sooner or later, Yaoying will fall into the hands of the prince.

Yaoying had no time to think about when the prince was poisoned in Yelu Khan's bowl. She was wary of the prince, but she did not expect the prince to be so cruel and cruel.

"We have too few people..." Yaoying closed her eyes, "Let's watch the changes first."

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

It is necessary to write these above. With Yaoying's personality, it is impossible to rush to the monk when she arrives in the Western Regions and ask for help, right, she has no choice but to defile the monk...
