Chapter 9 Life as an Alliance

The noble Prince Chinas, the princess of Azlan and the trembling little slave all looked at the boy! Looking at his quiet smiling face like a god, looking at the smile on his thin and sharp lips, looking at his coral-red eyes narrowing into a line, and even his slender stag-like neck intoxicates them! This is a too beautiful child. The beautiful makes people afraid, and the beautiful makes them feel unreal! They didn't even dare to breathe and looked at it like that!

The child sat weakly on the bed, still smiling and repeated: "How are you, my name is Ye Xingchen!" His tone was extremely natural, as if he was talking to an old friend who couldn't remember him for a long time!

Yu Meng reacted first, jumped in place, clapped his hands and shouted with a smile, "Great, the southern children are so beautiful! It's better than Shen Fanshuang, and it doesn't look so dull!"

'Isn't it so dull?' Suil and Ke looked at Ye Xingchen's eyes. Those dark red eyes were indeed rare, but they were missing the innocence that a 12-year-old child should have, faintly revealing a sense of death and a perverseness! Pale, the child's face is very pale, which makes his smile as if it were carved out of his face, which was unreal! Too beautiful things appear in front of people, people's first feeling is often afraid, and that's how he feels at this time!

Su Iller strode forward, stood in front of Yu Meng, looked down at the child named Night Star, and said, "Hello, my name is Su Iller and Ke Chi Na Si!" This is the far north, on the banks of the Rilana River, where we spend the winter!" His voice was very low and under great pressure.

Yu Meng poked his head from his back, smiled softly, and said crisply, "My name is Yumeng Erdun Ketu!" Saying that, he waved his hand to the night stars, and his eyes narrowed into a line.

Su Rile looked at Yumeng lying on his shoulder in surprise. This proud girl always added her title when she said herself. Generally, people who heard the words 'Princess Yumeng of Azlan' would kneel down in panic, and Yumeng laughed loudly and looked at them at their loss. I think it's fun! This time, it's really rare for this girl to only say her name and not suppress others with a sealed account!

Ye Xingchen looked at them and smiled, with a weak and soft smile, like a ripple on his pale face. He turned his head to look at the trembling little female slave and asked, "What about you? What's your name?"

"Me?" The little slave's face showed a very surprised look. She was just a humble slave cub, and no one would look at her more when she died, but now the master she wanted to serve took the initiative to ask her name, and her tone was completely the same as when she spoke to the prince and princess. When did she receive such courtesy? In an instant, he was flattered. She stood awkwardly and said like a mosquito, "Uma! I don't have a surname, because I'm a slave of the China family!"

Ye Xingchen was still smiling. He lifted the sheepskin felt on his body, sat by the bed, and his legs drooped. He saw the panic of the little slave. In fact, the female slave was not many years older than him! In the night country, he recognized every palace warrior who waited on him. Everyone would respectfully call him son when they saw him, and he was never arrogant. It was natural to ask the female slave's name to tell him, but he didn't expect it to scare her.

Uma quickly turned around and took the cowhide boots from the brazier in the corner of the tent, squatted down and put the master on his feet. Then he said respectfully, "Master, are you hungry? Uma will find something to eat for you. The big shaman said that as soon as you wake up, he will come here immediately! Why don't Uma call the big shaman before the prince and princess leave?

"It bothers you!" The night stars said quietly. Uma's expression became more nervous. She turned back awkwardly and almost ran away when she left the tent.

Yu Meng said with a little surprise, "Why are you so polite to a slave? There are tens of thousands of such slaves when they wave..."

"They are all people!" The child still said with a smile, and the blue Hyacinth on his chest shook with the ups and downs of his chest, as if dancing in the wind.

Yumeng is a little puzzled by this sentence. She has been a noble princess since she was a child, even if she wants that slave to die! In the eyes of the nobles, slaves are goods, property, and property that can be abandoned or used to trade goods at any time! In a sense, slaves are like cattle and sheep... Anyway, they are not human!

Su Rile turned around and sat by the brazier, adding some fire to it, and the fire flashed. Yu Meng also sat down. She smiled and waved to the night stars, "Come on, sit down together!" It is rare for her to speak so softly to Ye Xingchen. Su Ille is a little unaccustomed to it. She looks at this girl who has bullied him for more than ten years like a monster.

Night Xingchen stood up from the bed. His body looked thin and weak, as if a gust of wind could blow down. His bones were slender and light, and the big sleeves of his robe were like folded wings twice in his body. Yu Meng suddenly felt that the child would fly in the sky like a kite at the beginning of spring!

Night Xingchen sat cross-legged opposite the rain, with his elbows on his knees, his chin in his hand, and fixedly looking at the burning flame. The child became extremely quiet in an instant, and the firelight jumped on his face and hands, and his body was covered with a gold edge. Silk is extremely bright under the firelight, and the bright silk is unmatched by the rough sheepskin on the grassland, and even Yumeng is a little envious, although her white fox fur is more precious.

For a moment, no one spoke, only the roaring wind outside the account. In the future, grassland people will spend a long five-month cold winter in tents. After the first snow falls, the herdsmen will kill good cattle and sheep and bury them in the snow cage to eat for a winter. In the future, you will basically live by roasting fire, eating meat and drinking! If luck stops, herdsmen will ride their horses across the frozen Rina River and hunt foxes or yellow sheep in the north, so that it won't be too boring.

Yu Meng finally couldn't calm down. She couldn't stand such a quiet environment. So he said, "Xingchen, are you from the south? Then tell me about the south. What I want to go most is the south... I want to see the cities in the south. I heard that there are very prosperous cities, high buildings, and many people! There are all kinds of delicious and fun things along the street, kites? Sugar-coated haws? Doll? Emerald bracelet? There are also a lot of fun and delicious things... Well, by the way, and your imperial capital of Mengyang, is the winter of the sky all frozen on the building? Full of crystal clear ice, and then hang lanterns of different colors on the ice at night. The whole city is colorful?

Yu Meng said a lot in one breath, and the more he said, the more excited he became! What she wants to go most is the south. The first time she saw the exquisite things brought by merchants from the south, she fell in love with it! I even found merchants from the south and asked them to secretly take themselves to the south. If it hadn't been for the timely discovery of the Great Khan of Erdun Ketu and sent a lion's tooth to shoot the team of southern merchants overnight, I'm afraid that the pearl on the grassland would have become the beauty of the southern wind and moon!

But this girl still doesn't give up and asks about the south every time. When Suille just came back, Yu Meng came to him and was angry that he didn't bring him a gift.

She looked at the night stars eagerly, waiting for him to speak. But as if he didn't hear it, the night stars were still silently looking at the burning flame. His dark red eyes seemed to shine under the light of the flame, sharp and perverse!

"The south is not as good as you think!" The night star finally opened its mouth! His voice suddenly became low, like something in his throat. A sense of grief, helplessness and sadness gushed out of his thin body, and the tide flooded them sitting in front of the fire. His voice was so cold that Suzile and Yu Meng couldn't help tightening their necks, as if someone was blowing behind their necks!

"There are killings, dead people, and a lot of terrible things in the South! If it had been a few months ago, I would have agreed with you, but now it's different! Southern Mengyang is no longer the original Mengyang. Many things, many people no longer exist. Southern is just a place name for me, which is meaningless! And the beautiful things you said are only superficial!" Ye Xingchen said that when he said these words, Su Rile and Yu Meng had an illusion that this teenager was already very old, as if he had experienced dozens of years, and saw through a lot of dust whitewashing, tired and angry!

"If I go back to Mengyang one day, I can take you with me!" For a moment, the night star's eyes narrowed into a thin line and looked at the rain through the flames. Take you to the south to have a look. You can stay in Mengyang as long as you want. You can do whatever you want to eat and what you want to see!"

"Really?" Yu Meng shouted in surprise. She didn't expect Ye Xingchen to say so. Although he may just say so, Yu Meng is still very happy. Who made her so obsessed with the south?

"Night Xingchen, your surname is Ye, so what is your relationship with Mengyang's general Ye Mingshan?" Suzile and Ke asked, this is what he cares about, and he wants to figure out why this weak-looking child appears here!

"My father!" Ye Xingchen didn't seem to want to say more, and replied briefly and indifferently.

"So he is now?"

"Dead, I was exiled!"

At this time, people with a little brain can figure out why the noble son of the night country appears in the wild grassland! General Zhentian died, and this child was exiled by those in power! Really pitiful!

Su Rile nodded silently and didn't talk much! Looking at the stubborn calmness on Ye Xingchen's face, he felt a little sad and uneasy! Maybe we shouldn't mention the past to this child.

"Then your father died and you were exiled, so how can you take me to Mengyang?" Yu Meng said angrily with his cheeks bulging. Where will I live when I go to Mengyang with you? Who do I ask for money to buy food, play and drink? Lie, lie, lie, you southerners, just lie..."

"Yu Meng, don't say anything!" Su Rile saw that the light in Ye Xingchen's eyes faded, and his god-like face was covered with loneliness that day. He really couldn't bear to see it.

The rain looked at Su Rile angrily and was about to refute a few words, but he heard the night stars whisper, "Sooner or later I will go back. I will break the erratic city, step on the star fall hall, kill the emperor of Mengyang, and kill everyone who makes me sad..."

His voice was very soft, like a breeze, but the two of them recognized the murderousness and blood in the voice. The child said such words quietly without a sound, and his expression did not change, just like saying particularly ordinary things, but the two people couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts. It seemed that the child said that the stars in the sky would fall and they all felt that it would be true!

He raised his head, looked at Yumeng, and smiled, "When I kill the emperor of Mengyang, you can come to Mengyang, play as long as you want, and do whatever you want. At that time, I will be the owner of that land, and everyone will know my name..."

"It's a deal!" Yu Meng's eyes shined, and she didn't care whether any poor Mengyang Emperor would be killed by the night stars. As long as she could play, eat and take a good look at the prosperous southern city, she would be satisfied! She clapped her hands excitedly with a smile on her face.

"I want to hook with you. Our grassland barbarians usually give high-fives. If you are a southerner, forget it! According to the habits of you southerners, we pull the hook! You have to swear to kill the emperor of Mengyang, become the master of Mengyang, and take me to Mengyang to play generously. I want to go to the tallest building in Mengyang, eat the best food, and play all the fun things! Yu Meng said excitedly, and her soft hair swayed with her movements.

Suil and Ke shook their heads helplessly and smiled. Does this little princess really think that the words 'Master of Mengyang' can be realized by casually speaking? The emperor of Mengyang, how many warriors of the barbarians bury their bones in their hometown? Now Emperor Linxi even took away his father's hand... How can the words 'Master of Mengyang' weigh more than a thousand? Outstanding people! How can the owner of the fertile land of Mengyang be a mediocre person? How can it be so easy to kill such a person?

But Yu Meng has bypassed the fire and stretched out his hand to the night stars, raising his little finger and looking at the night stars with a smile.

Ye Xingchen was stunned, but did not hesitate and stretched out his hand. His hands were delicate and slender, like a warm jade, and the firelight hit his hand with a soft halo, like a miracle. For a moment, they had the illusion that they could see the veins of the night stars through the fire, and even what kind of blood was flowing in his body!

He also stretched out his little finger and hooked it with Yu Meng's fingers, and the fire shining on their hands tightly connected their hands like a fiery chain. He just looked at it silently and didn't want to talk much. And Yumeng's voice is as clear as a wind chime: "Tengli God is on it. In the future, the night stars will become the owner of Mengyang. At that time, he will take Yumeng Erdun of the Azlan Department to play all the fun things in Mengyang, eat all the delicious food, buy the best satin to make clothes, and go up the highest building to pick the stars... Well, What else? Let me think about it... Forget it, that's all for now. I'll tell you when I remember! If he didn't keep his word, Tengri God hit him on the head as stupid as a stupid cow, haha"

"Hmm!" Ye Xingchen just smiled and answered briefly, and then he said unexpectedly, "Tengri God is on top..."

Yu Meng withdrew her hand. She only felt that the child's hand was very cold. Although the fire shone on his hand, she felt like ice when she touched it, without any warmth. It seems that what is left in his veins is not warm blood, but just thawing in early spring, and still floating in ice water... But she doesn't think much about this much. She is a child who is easy to be happy. Now Ye Xingchen has agreed with her, that's her wish.

"From now on, you will be my friend. Whoever bullies you, you will say that you are my friend of Yumeng Erdun. I'll find someone to beat him!" Yu Meng patted his chest and said with a heroic face, quite like a heroine.

"Father said that Xingchen and the twin sons are both distinguished guests of Chi Nasi, and no one is allowed to offend them!" Su Rile said, but he immediately smiled and said, "From then on, I am also your friend. Don't worry, I am the future barbarian king. I have more face than the princess of the Azeslan tribe. No one dares to bully you with me!" If you can be friends with the owner of Mengyang in the future, then I will ask you for help in the winter, so I don't have to go to Mengyang to kill and rob. Robbed! If your Mengyang is in danger in the future, I will send my vigorous horse and swan horse to help you. My barbarian iron horse is very powerful!" He didn't know why he suddenly said such a thing, but he really felt that Ye Xingchen was a person who could make friends deeply. This southern child had a certain attractive temperament, very approachable and irresistible!

The rain beside him was unhappy. He stretched out his slender arm and knocked hard on Su Rile's head and said fiercely, "Is my princess of Alesland not as good as your prince? Suil, you remember that I have bullied you since you were a child. In the future, whether you are the king of the barbarians or not, you will be bullied by me... Humph"

Su Rile suddenly looked like a bitter gourd and rubbed his head and whispered, "It's evil... it's evil!"

Ye Xingchen looked at Suil and Ke, smiled gently and said, "Then we will make an alliance. I will be the emperor of Mengyang in the future. You are the king of the barbarians, and we will make an alliance. We will never fight again. If you don't eat enough and don't have enough money for winter, I will give it to you!" If Mengyang fights with other dynasties, you can send cavalry to help us! We are allies!"

"Good! Let's high-five as an alliance. Don't hook like this woman. We are men and want to create a man with the same achievements as the god of war. Let's high-five as the alliance!" Su Rile couldn't help but get blood hot and stretched out his thick palm and said.

Night Star's slender hand hit his palm, and the crisp sound echoed in the tent. The two said at the same time: "The Tengri God is on top... he will be an alliance all his life!"

The young emperors met in such a hurry. They didn't know whether they were serious or not, but they stood side by side like this! They can't even guess what will happen in the distant future, but they made a promise to remember and fight for it all their lives!

Sometimes it seems that many fateful things are often coincidentally contributed by gods! Later historians always like to write the night stars of the general of Beichen of Fanyang, who was also the emperor of the later Mengfan Dynasty and the king of China Sizun. In the heroes who are rampant in troubled times, the two will always be compared! Perhaps without the night stars on the grassland in the far north, there will be no China Si Zun Wu Wang in the future. Without Zun Wu Wang, there will be no General Fanyang Beichen, let alone the dream Fan Dynasty that will be awe-inspiring when people think about it!

A few years later, the elderly king of martial arts, Suil and Ke Chinasi stood on the high ground of the wilderness and mountains, quietly looking at the boundless land in the south, with quiet eyes. Although he is very old, he still clearly remembers a man named Night Star! I still remember that they spent the best five years of their lives on the grassland together, and there are also traces of Yumeng Erdun Ketu, the pearl of the grassland! But the beacon of troubled times will eventually burn such a beautiful thing! Even the passing of his beloved Yumeng is related to this boy named Night Star!

But he doesn't hate the night stars, because men's achievements have nothing to do with women! It's just that what good friends they were at that time, but they finally became enemies! He still remembers that when he first saw the weak and delicate child, Yu Meng agreed with him to give him a high-five! But in the end, Yu Meng died tragically under the arrow, and he also stood opposite the night star. There was no room for turning around. Every time he thought of this, he couldn't help sighing...

In the end, he didn't know whether the night stars who became the emperor of the Mengfan Dynasty still remember their agreement at that time? Do you still remember the alliance of that life? Do you remember a girl who made an appointment with him to go to the south with him? I don't know! He didn't even have the strength to question Ye Xingchen face to face, just waiting to die!

King Zunwu turned around and said to his son, "The land south of the wilderness and mountains is not easily captured by us barbarians!" You are far worse than the owner of that land! Remember, before the death of the night stars, don't use troops against the Mengfan Dynasty. No matter how big the white hairy wind is, no matter how dry the summer is, don't cross the wilderness and mountains to invade the south..." The old King Zunwu's voice was sad and hoarse. Even if he forgets, I still remember the lifelong alliance at that time!"

But history is so unpredictable, just like a devout prayer who can't guess the god he worships! Only endless regrets and sorrows...
