Loulan Feisha
In the seventh year of Tianbao, Prince Loulan led the team to Chang'an to ask for marriage.
My father is the most promising emperor since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. The house is not closed at night, the road is not picked up, and a song and dance is flat. But my father has a heart disease. This heart disease is me.
I am the youngest daughter of my father. He always says that I am the most beautiful and cute of all my children. Maybe it is because I am the youngest child. My father loves me very much. My beautiful moon palace is full of strange flowers and plants from various countries. There are the most dazzling birds in hundreds of bird cages, and there is the most comfortable swing in the backyard. There is the most exquisite ring in front of the dressing table, and there is the most gorgeous fit dress in the closet... But I'm not happy because I can't talk.
When I was seven years old, I accidentally fell off the stool. Two days later, I couldn't speak. My father asked famous doctors all over the country to treat me, but it didn't work. I still can't speak or say to my father that I love you. Please don't worry about me anymore.
After, I began to learn to write. Pen, ink, paper and inkstone are still the best, Taifu, and the best. His name is Li Bai, and he is a famous "poetry fairy" all over the world. I can't understand his cursive script, but I can see the desire in his poem - the desire for freedom. Just like the hundreds of birds in the Moon Palace.
Master Taibai.
I always call him like this in my heart, but what I write on my hand is Taifu.
"Taifu, you are drinking again." I wrote.
He looked at me, smiled and asked why.
"Because you have the smell of wine on your body."
He smiled happily: "The thin smell of wine? Ha ha ha..."
I watched him laugh, and I laughed myself.
Out of the door, I looked at the birds in the yellow bamboo cage, took Taifu and ran over to open all the cage doors. Looking at the birds rushing to the sky excitedly, tears in my eyes rolled down.
That year, I was ten years old.
Until now, I still remember the last sentence I said: "Father, don't kill her!"
She is my personal maid. When I fell off the stool when I was seven years old, my father stroked the bag behind my head and wanted to kill her angrily. I cried and stopped her. Now, by my side, she often shows self-reproach and gratitude in her eyes, and everything about me is well-tied and very good.
Her name is Jasper, which is the name I gave her.
"Princess, it's time to start." Jasper is calling me.
Half-closing my eyes, I let her gently dress and wash my clothes and comb. When she inserted the last hairpin for me, I was completely awake. I smiled at the jasper in the bronze mirror, because this is the only way I can praise people.
Jasper has a good voice. I often ask her to take a few maids of honor to take turns singing, but I don't want any of those father-in-law. I don't want something incomplete. Even if it's a dead person, I want a complete one.
When I saw my mother, she always knelt down and saluted, and my mother always pulled me up with heartache. The Laoyue Palace is quiet and deviates from the main hall. Mother - I always call her like this in my heart - I don't come often and think about me very much. I'm an unfilial daughter." I often blame myself in my heart.
My father came to talk to me about new things when he was free. One day, he mentioned Lou Lan. The mysterious country deeply attracted me, the desolation of the yellow sand and sunshine, the continuous vastness of the sand dunes, the pride of the eagle flying high... Everything fascinated me.
"Lou Lan... Lou Lan..." I remembered the charming name deeply in my heart.
"Jasper, is there an eagle in Chang'an?" I asked.
"Princess, there is the emperor's paddock outside Chang'an City. Those who follow must have eagles." Jasper stood behind me, holding a plate of freshly made snacks, and answered respectfully.
"I want to go to Loulan."
"Princess, I will go wherever you go."
I turned my head, looked at her beautiful eyebrows, and gave her a negative smile.
As the only person in the royal family who can't speak, I'm not afraid of others talking in front of me, and I won't make a sound. Sometimes, my mother looked at me with a sigh and wanted to find a candidate for my son-in-law, but my father and I refused. I don't want to get married so soon, but my father is reluctant to part with me. He is afraid that I will be wronged.
My father told me that if I were a prince, he would definitely pass the throne to me, because I have a loving heart. I always shake my head and smile when I hear this. I don't want to get close to a big palace, let alone a country? I'm not the material for governing the country. With those idle feelings, I might as well listen to the singing of jasper, watch the swimming fish in the pool, enjoy the flowing clouds in the sky, and taste the wine of the world. My father said that Taibai Taifu ruined me and I couldn't change the habit of tasting wine for many years.
"Father, will you govern such a big country?" I asked presumptuously.
"Alas..." My father took a sip of Biluochun and lost his color in vain, as if this bowl of fragrant tea I made with my own hands was tasteless.
"How can it be good? People are always greedy. My father only said this sentence.
I understand what my father means. Even in prosperous times, there are also corrupt officials who want to accumulate wealth, and the people also scold their father for being blind. Therefore, the father carries the biggest black pot in the world.
My father drove back to the palace. Jasper and I listened to the maids singing in the lobby, but my mind flew.
Because the Louyue Palace is too far from the main hall, it looks like a paradise here. A mute princess lives here with more than 30 maids of honor, and even there are few guards outside. They were all driven outside the palace wall and guarded this huge "garden" outside the wall.
Tianbao on the ninth day of June in the fourth year. Child time.
I looked at the clouds of sorrow in the sky and thought of a person. Jasper took out the mutton fat jade glass and got a glass of wine.
"Twenty-year-old daughter Hong!"
I turned around and smiled at Jasper. Why don't you go to bed?" Princess, you haven't slept yet. How can I sleep!"
I waved my hand and let the maids go down to sleep. It's enough to have jasper here.
After drinking a few cups of daughter red, I couldn't help but feel a little drunk. Looking at Jasper, I was already sleepy. A pair of slender eyes were red. I think I haven't slept well these days. I looked at the uncircular moon outside the window and thought of him again - "The difficulty of Shu is more difficult than going to the blue sky!" It has been a year since Master Taibai was given gold by his father. I don't know if he is tasting wine like me.
I pointed to the incense burner, and the jasper took it over, and there was an unburned rose fragrance in it. The fire was lit, and the curling green smoke rose slowly. The charm was like the wind and as charming as clouds, as if it was more breathtaking than the dance of the Hu people. I motioned to Jasper to go to bed, wanting to be alone.
The light in the lantern occasionally jumped softly, which made me slightly surprised. I simply blew the lamp, only took the half of the incense, and sat in front of the window tasting the silver waterfall sprinkled by the half moon.
The moonlight suddenly darkened and returned to the previous coldness. I looked up at the moon and smiled gently. Yun'er, you are really naughty. Why do you want to cover the beautiful face of the moon? But the cloud seemed to fade too fast, and I frowned suspiciously.
Soon, I knew what was going on.
The door was gently opened by a man, and a stream of black smoke floated towards me, followed by a moonlight sword on my neck and rubbed it hard. I thought I was going to die, and I was so scared that I wanted to see who was behind me. But I'm not dead. It was Jasper who saved me. What she used was the red jade blood hairpin she inserted in her head every day.
Then, there was a jingling fight. The maids called the bodyguards, and the torch lit up my residence. The flower beds outside the window were shrouded in fire and could not accept the caress of the moonlight. At this time, I saw that the man was blindfolded, and his long black hair and moonlight-like sword responded to each other, which dazzled me. Suddenly, a sword stabbed me, and I stood there until I heard a man's scream.
The jasper is injured!
My first reaction was to hold the jasper. Her shoulders were bleeding, but her eyes were staring at the man very keenly. Her eyes were full of hostility. The red jade blood hairpin became the continuation of her arm, with dark red anger flowing down. I looked up at the man. His face towel had been picked off by jasper, revealing a pale face. Perhaps because of surprise and resentment, the face became distorted and reflected by the fire outside, with indescribable horror.
"Huh! Unexpectedly, the 'red-blooded spider' that disappeared in the world would be a lackey for the royal family!"
Jasper suddenly opened her mouth and sprayed blood, shook the gear in front of me, and looked at the man coldly: "I'm not a spider, I'm just a maid of honor in the Moon Palace!" I want to protect the princess! I don't know what kind of person the emperor is, but why did you kill Princess Anping far away from the government?
The man in black looked disbelieving and snorted coldly.
"Do you know that there is a dumb princess who doesn't want to ask about the world today?"
The man in black's eyes fell on me over Jasper. Such cold eyes made me shudder.
"That's her!" Jasper looked at me slightly and stared at him: "I think, with your experience of killing, there will never be a woman who is silent after being assassinated."
The man in black didn't say anything. He held the sword and wanted to leave, but he was stopped by the bodyguard at the door. I wrote with my pen, and the words also opened my teeth and claws: "Let him go! No one is allowed to talk about today! Be careful of the wind!" The bodyguard hesitated, but still retreated. Jasper walked to me and still observed him carefully.
"Go quickly! When my father comes, even I can't save you. I believe that you are a chivalrous person. No matter how much my father is, he has done his best. It is not easy for a person to govern a country like this. Don't deny a piece of beautiful jade because of a flaw. Take care of yourself." I wrote in a hurry, and I wish I could have a few more hands. At this time, I blamed myself for being so delicate that I couldn't speak after falling.
Jasper threw the words I wrote to the man in black. He didn't say anything. After reading it, he raised his legs and left. But the sudden noise outside changed his face. You are also a despicable villain!" He shook the sword in his hand and stabbed it again. Jasper was still in front of me. The bodyguard had rushed to fight with him, but soon, a piece of people fell on the ground. I admire that he didn't move a maid of honor. As I thought, he was a gentleman.
"The emperor is here--!"
I was shocked and finally knew why he changed his face. There are a lot of officers and soldiers outside. He must think I'm using a probation plan!
"Anping!"
My father's anxious voice came. I quickly walked to the table facing the gate of the courtyard and saw the sword of the man in black and the protected father five feet away.
"Catch him alive! How dare you kill in the only pure land in the palace!" My father was angry and listened to his majestic announcement, which made me sad and happy.
"Hung King! You don't care about An Lushan's ten evils. You have to add him to the title. You don't care about the life or death of the people at all! The rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed in your hands! Look, I'm for the people in the world today, except you!" As he spoke, he rushed to his father. I instinctively ran forward, but somehow the sword swayed in front of me.
I became his hostage again.
"Anping!" My father's surprise and momentary panic filled my eyes with tears. Father, my daughter is unfilial, and my daughter has gone.
I closed my eyes and waited for the cool moment and hot-blooded moment in my neck, but he didn't do anything for a long time, that is, he didn't talk to his father or kill me.
"Princess, you are shocked!"
It's jasper! It's the voice of jasper! But why didn't the man in black move?
I opened my eyes and saw the frank and calm smile of Jasper, who suddenly jumped into her arms, regardless of whether she would be stained with sweet blood. The man in black behind was tied up, and my father escorted him to my lobby for interrogation.
It turned out that his name was Zhou Kuangsha, and he was a subordinate of An Lushan. Because he didn't like An Lushan's behavior, he was angry and assassinated his father. Unexpectedly, he came to me by mistake. He thought I was his father's concubine and didn't know that I was a princess, so he couldn't help getting angry with me. After that, my father came with troops and wanted to escape from the palace with me as a hostage.
My father was not angry with him for him to assassinate him. On the contrary, it was because he angered me as a hostage and was determined to kill him.
I knelt down and kowtowed to my father. Only the sound of my head touching the marble floor was quiet in the room. My head began to hurt, I began to faint, began to swell, began to bleed, and my eyes were blurred by blood. Then, I didn't know anything, but the moment before I lost consciousness, I held Zhou Kuangsha's hand tightly. I can't let him die.
When I woke up, it was the next morning, and there was only one person's back in the room. The long black hair spread on his shoulders, which was particularly touching. And then my head began to hurt, and it hurt so much.
I'm probably afraid that I'll break it again. I still have the robe of last night, and I haven't changed it. I raised my hand and touched the silver bell at the head of the bed. As soon as the silver bell rang, my head hurt even more, but otherwise, he couldn't turn around and let me see who he was.
Zhou Kuangsha! Yes, it's him! It's Zhou Kuangsha! He is not dead! Father, you know what I mean! He didn't kill him!
My heart turned upside down, I was grateful to all the gods, and tears flowed down inexplicably. Zhou Kuangsha rushed over and knelt in front of my bed and hit ten heads. I couldn't pull it up, which made my head hurt badly again.
"Princess, Zhou has no eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai. This life was saved by the princess. It's all up to the princess's command. Go to the knife mountain and go down the oil pot!" Zhou Kuangsha's voice trembled, and he could still hear the choking sound of his best.
I looked at his serious look and wanted to laugh, but I couldn't laugh. He is a person who speaks for the people. How can I let my father kill him and lose the reputation of an unkind king? Speaking of which, I'm a little selfish. By the way, where is Jasper? How is her injury? I got up and ran out, but was pulled by Zhou Kuangsha: "Princess, you are injured now. I'll do anything!"
I looked back at him, grabbed him with my backhand, and rushed out of the door.
The jasper's room is next door, but she is not in it. Strangely, there is no maid in it. I ran to the rockery again, but still couldn't find her. In the end, I had to go to the secret place, where only I and Jasper knew.
Zhou Kuangsha has been following me through pavilions, rock caves, gardens, streams, and going up against the current to find a small garden. Jasper is washing the red jade blood hairpin by the clear pool.
"Jasper!" Zhou Kuangsha's voice shocked Jasper. She turned around and saw me. She immediately ran over and tidied up my messy robe and hair.
"Princess, your injury hasn't healed yet. Don't come out. Go back quickly. It will leave a root of the disease!"
I hugged Jasper and carefully didn't touch the wound on her shoulder. She immediately understood what I meant and said to me, "Princess, I'm fine. It's just a skin injury. It will get better in a few days..."
Jasper picked me up and walked back. Zhou Kuangsha didn't say a word and followed us. I turned my face and looked at him and found that he was staring at Jasper's back, as if he was very confused. His big eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of fog and could not see clearly.
Zhou Kuangsha was so desperately saved by me to take care of my safety.
Until now, I didn't know that Kuangsha's eyes at that time were not confusion, but love.
At that time, I was thirteen years old.
Jasper was combing my hair and suddenly stopped. Princess, I..." She knelt down with a begging look in her eyes: "Princess, let me go, transfer me wherever you go, let me go! I...I really..."
I ignored the half-combed hair and picked up the pen: "What's wrong with you?" After reading these words, Jasper looked at me in surprise. Don't think that I don't know anything. There are more than thirty maids in the Yueyue Palace. Only you are closest to me, and the sand is by my side every day. Can I not know what happened between you? I even know that you are dating by the pool. Jasper's face is pale and ugly.
"I said I was going to Loulan, do you remember?"
Jasper raised her head and saw the smile in my eyes. She couldn't help smiling: "Princess, I will go wherever you go!"
I gave her another negative smile: "Not only you, but also the wild sand. You two, I can't leave you. I'm going to take you to Loulan and then give you a marriage, so you don't have to suffer from lovesickness anymore.
Jasper's tears surged like a tide, rushing. I pulled her up and pointed to the half of her uncombed hair. She quickly dried her tears and removed my hair again.
I inexplicably looked at the jasper in the mirror and watched her take off the newly inserted pin rings one by one. I couldn't laugh or cry.
"Princess, you are going to see someone today. Have you forgotten?" Jasper said, but her men kept pulling up my hair high and combing a bun that I had never seen before. She was right. Today is the day for the prince to propose marriage to his father, but I didn't even attend the welcome ceremony for him to the city.
"Princess, this hairpin... If you don't dislike it, put it on!" Jasper pulled out the red jade blood hairpin that had saved my life and offered it with both hands: "It's just the only thing my mother left me. It barely matches this robe, princess, you..." I shook my head and found the jade hairpin, jade bracelet and jade pendant, but none of it could be compared with that hairpin.
"I'll give it back to you! It's just a very important thing. It's also your weapon!" I hurriedly wrote on the paper, and the palms of my hands were sweating.
Jasper bowed her head and said no. She silently inserted the hairpin for me, and then called the sand in. When Kuangsha saw me, he was stunned at first, and then smiled stupidly, saying that I was shocked. In the past few years, I have been used to the delicate, gentle, mature, considerate, funny and evil of the sand. Every time I hear his voice of practicing swordsmanship in the forecourt, I can always sleep at ease. When I wake up, sometimes I can see Jasper sleeping on his shoulder at ease. At this time, I will pretend that I have not seen anything, and then Go to sleep at ease.
"Princess, it's time to go."
So, I took Jasper and Crazy Sand out of the Moon Palace for the third time. The first time was to bury my mother, the second time was to pay for Master Taibai, and this third time, it determined my future.
If it weren't for the father's token, I could hardly enter the hall. The strict guard made me uncomfortable.
My father was very surprised by my arrival. Although I said I would go to Loulan before, my father probably forgot about it. I haven't seen you for many years. My sisters have become beautiful girls. They are pearly and arrogant. Fortunately, there are jasper and crazy sand, otherwise I think I will definitely escape. My father didn't ask me why I was late, because I couldn't speak. More importantly, he didn't expect me to come, just as I didn't expect someone to be staring at me.
I glanced at the corners of my eyes, and finally, my eyes met with an alien young man. His clothes were strange and luxurious, and there was an endless piece of jade around his waist. His bronze face was slightly red, and his rough lines were handsome. His thin lips moved gently, but in the end he did not make a sound.
"This is my youngest child, Princess Anping. An Ping, I have met Prince Loulan. My father stretched out his hand to invite the young man. He calmly got up and saluted me, and I saluted him politely. When I looked up, I saw the surprise in his eyes and found that I didn't say a word of etiquette, and I was even a little angry at my "arrogant" behavior.
My father smiled bitterly and relieved me: "Prince Ankeda, please don't be surprised. The little girl has a strange disease since she was a child and can't speak. Please forgive me.
The prince smiled boldly, and his thin lips were very beautiful.
Next, the father talked about politics with him. I never thought that such a prince would lead a war on the border, and his words have shown that he is so knowledgeable, which makes me admire him. However, these words remind me of a person.
Master Taibai.
Master Taibai has been released by his father for four years. I don't know if he is free to live.
"Wow! It's dangerous! The difficulty of Shu Dao is more difficult than going to the blue sky!"
I miss Master Taibai's poem, his slender and delicate hands, his deep and melancholy pupils, and his expression when he watched the caged birds rush into the sky.
I miss everything about him. I think I have always loved him.
Tears drowned my eyes, and everything was hazy and beautiful. Jinzhan, silver plate, glazed palace lamp... Dazzling beauty, telling the loneliness and helplessness after the majesty of the royal family.
In the blur, I felt uncomfortable. My eyes came back from the sky and turned my head to meet those eyes. Those eyes as sharp as eagles. There are extremely complex things in it, curiosity, pity, desire, and a trace of tenderness hidden behind all the toughness, which flashes by.
Spring water, yellow sand, grassland, eagle.
Master Taibai!
My heart twitched to the bone.
Since you can't get it, then give up. Master Taibai will always treat me as a child. He will not accept the darkness in officialdom. Then I will stay away from here and go to the place where I used to miss so much. My father can also forget this heart disease. I can also forget everything here: pavilions, platforms, buildings, pavilions, ponds, fish, courtyards, wood, birds, things--
People.
"Anping, you can play a song for everyone first!" My father looked at me and hoped for my answer.
"Father, let the sisters come first. I'm the youngest. How can I be the first to take people away?" My words were inherited by Jasper, and my father nodded.
The six unmarried sisters performed in turn, which made the envoys of Lou Languo full of praise. Then, I heard Jasper's cold hum, and I couldn't help hooking the corners of my mouth.
Twelve Princess Wu Yue took her sword, walked up to me and patted me gently on the shoulder. I haven't seen her for many years, she is still very kind to me.
"Anping, is it your turn this time?" There was hope in my father's eyes, which made me feel heavy.
The sand has taken my piano and handed it to Jasper, and Jasper handed it to me.
I haven't played the piano for a long time, and the traces of the crazy sand hurriedly wiping the piano are still on it. What are you playing? I stroked the strings and made a "sss" sound, and the familiar face appeared in front of me.
Master Taibai!
So, I began to pluck the strings without any tune, but I felt that Master Taibai was so elegant and did not eat the fireworks of the world. May I ask, which ordinary man can write such a magnificent poem?
As soon as the last note popped up, I covered the strings. My father looked at me and was puzzled; Lou Lan's envoy looked at me and puzzled; the sisters looked at me and puzzled.
But the man smiled astringently.
Prince Loulan, Ankeda.
The person who has bronze skin and thick lines is handsome. He leads troops to war at the border gate and blushes unexpectedly smiled astringently!
"An Neng can break his eyebrows and bend his waist, which makes me unhappy!"
In the quiet hall, his voice slowly floated through my ears, thick and low, like rolling thick clouds lying on the eaves, as if to crush the world.
"Your Majesty, does your princess like the dim yellow sand eagle desert and the endless grassland?" Prince Loulan's voice was loud, and it hit everyone's eardrums like a sinking cloud: "The people there are kind and friendly, and there are flocks of horses and sheep. There are flowers that have never appeared in the Central Plains, and there are birds flying and fighting in the wind. There are batches of warriors raised and guarding the wall. All this is what I am proud of. There is such a country that there is me. Therefore, I want to marry a princess who loves my country, even if... she is a maid of honor!"
"What?" Everyone in the hall was moved by his words. I looked at him and met his eagle-like eyes. Clear! Clear! What a clear pair of eyes! He came to propose marriage. He not only wants the stability of the country, but more importantly, he wants to find a lifelong companion. Even if he comes from a lowly background, he doesn't care!
The sisters have different expressions on their faces, either happy, or meditating, or worried, or at a loss, but their flashing eyes have the meaning of the committee. Who wants to leave their hometown and go to such a faraway country? Let's not talk about what will happen after that, just the distance is also daunting. I thought that I couldn't bear to let Jasper and Kuangsha follow. If I don't follow, how can I make them happy for a hundred years?
"Father, I'll go. I hope Prince Loulan doesn't dislike it." Jasper took my rice paper and refused to accept it. Her tears swirled around her eyes, and when she came back to me, she finally shed a tear. After reading it, my father handed it to Prince Loulan. There was something in his eyes, but he couldn't say it. He just smiled astringently.
"Your Majesty, Ankeda is afraid of humiliating the princess's golden body." He said this with a sincere sincerity, and even his father couldn't help smiling and nodding.
The father's face showed a relieved smile and pressed the matter temporarily. Playing music, singing and dancing, banquets, visiting the garden... On this day, I always inadvertently think of Master Taibai, and my strong thoughts surprise me. Is it because Master Taibai and Prince Loulan are so similar?
Back to the Moon Palace, I was exhausted and fell on **. I let Jasper take off my hairpin and robe one by one, but she did not take away the red jade blood hairpin. Are you really going to give it to me? I turned over and pulled the jasper who was about to leave and stuffed the hairpin into her. This is yours. Take it back. This hairpin can't be given to people casually. It's okay this time. If I really like it next time, won't your mother be sad? I laugh and go to sleep.
The next day, Jasper didn't come to call me. It was already late when I woke up and looked at the sky. He put on his clothes and opened the door, which hit a person's back. Princess, how are you? I looked up and saw the appearance of the crazy king.
"Where's Jasper?"
The sand helped me into the room and looked at my words. My big eyes blinked and shook my head.
"I don't know? OK, come and comb my hair!"
"Combing your hair?" After reading the last two words, Kuang Sha held the moon-like sword with a sad face and was at a loss. I had the intention to joke with him, pulled him to the dressing table, stuffed a comb in his hand, and sat on the stool, waiting with a smile.
I set off the sword and began to comb my hair. I found that his hair combing skills are no worse than jasper's, and he even has a little special creativity.
"Prince Ankeda of Loulan visits Princess Anping!"
Kuang Sha's hand stagnated, looked at me in the mirror, and continued to comb until Jasper pushed my door open.
"Princess, Prince Loulan is here."
I waved my hand and asked her to come over: "Crazy sand, go and tell him, I'll be there in a minute. I can't let me see him like this! Talk to him first. Don't ask anyone to say that the princess of the Tang Dynasty is arrogant and unreasonable. After the wild sand retreated, I looked at Jasper's drooping eyebrows and wrote, "What are you thinking?" Jasper shook her head and was speechless until she combed my last strand of hair. You and Kuang Sha really have a good heart!" She still didn't say anything, silently changed my clothes for me, and went out.
In the front hall, the laughter of the mad sand and Prince Loulan came from afar, occasionally mixed with a few "jingle". I went over and saw that both of them put their swords around each other's necks. Kuangsha turned his head and saw me. He quickly took his sword and stood aside respectfully. Prince Lou Lan leaned his sword back against the corner of the table and saluted.
I asked him to sit down. I didn't want him to come straight to the point and asked if I wanted to go to Loulan. Princess, I will tell the emperor tomorrow that I don't know which princess will go back with me. I can see that you like Loulan very much, so I will ask your majesty to be my princess, but I'm afraid your majesty won't agree.
I think he saw his father's love for me in the hall yesterday, so he is speculating whether to convince his father. And my heart has long been pierced by him.
"I like Loulan very much, but will your parents and ministers allow a mute to be their princess?"
He smiled, and his thin lips were beautiful: "This is my business. I marry a princess, not they marry a princess. Don't I even have the right to marry a princess?
"But can you tolerate a woman who has another man in her heart?"
His smile froze, and then became bitter: "Li Bai?"
My heart stopped. What does he know? Why did Prince Loulan mention Master Taibai? Why didn't he mention that others would mention him?
"I still remember the song you played in the hall. The technique is very similar to that of Brother Li. But I was not sure at that time, until I said those two poems, and your expression told me the answer.
I let Jasper and Kuangsha retreat, and there was only me and Prince Loulan in the whole lobby. Well, you can say whatever you want."
"I just want to make sure if you are the Princess Anping mentioned by Brother Li. He once told me that there is a favorite princess on the emperor today. She is as beautiful as a flower, but the only shortcoming is that she fell down when she was a child and would not speak in two days. He came to me and stared at me: "If you want to find Brother Li, you have to get out of this palace. Therefore, I must take you away and make you my princess.
I didn't write another word until he came out of the Moon Palace. After thinking all day, I finally decided to show my father that I was going to Loulan!
"Father, I'm going to Loulan." When my father saw my words, his eyebrows were immediately locked.
"Go to Loulan? Why? Anping, you know that I only love your daughter, but you are going to marry Loulan! OK, tell me your reason!" My father seemed to suppress his anger and look at every word I wrote.
"Father, do you remember once mentioning Loulan to me in the Raoyue Palace? Yellow sand, grassland, eagle, all of these are a wonderful picture, deeply rooted in my heart. Since then, I have yearned for that country, but this is not the main reason. The real reason is Ankeda. He is a good prince.
My father looked at it, opened his eyebrows and smiled. Oh, the women's university doesn't want to stay! What, do you like that prince?" I only have a little head. The father shook his head and smiled, and sighed, "Okay, you go, go." When I retreated, I suddenly found that the white hair on my father's ears had been added a few more, and the wrinkles seemed to appear on my father's face in an instant. I'm sad and blame myself, but what can I do for Master Taibai? The birds in the golden cage are most yearning for the sky! How can it escape the call of the sky?
Five days later, my father announced that Prince Ankeda would take me back to Loulan. The sisters came to congratulate them happily, but only Sister Wuyue cried. She told me that my father likes me the most. Can you change with her and let her replace me? I stroked her tears and asked Jasper to tell her that Loulan was the place I longed for. I didn't want to stay in this huge and luxurious bird cage, and my father always looked at me sadly. I don't want to make my father sad anymore, so I have to marry in that distant country.
Sister Wuyue hugged me and said "cherish".
My father has gone to the study and planned the trip with Prince Loulan. He doesn't want to see me for fear of sadness.
In the next few days, Jasper was busy packing up, and Kuangsha was busy running to Prince Loulan. On the contrary, I am the most idle. I play the piano, enjoy the flowers, write poems and swings in the garden, as if nothing happened.
Youshi three quarters.
I sat on the swing and swung gently. Jasper stood quietly holding a pot of bamboo leaves for 20 years. The moon is shining coldly, reminding me of the sword of the wild sand.
"Princess Anping!"
I was shocked, and Jasper was also shocked. Looking back, Prince Lou Lan was standing not far behind me, standing alone with a sword in his arms. Obviously, he climbed over the wall and came in. I got off the swing and invited him into the lobby.
"Princess, I'm here to tell you something. Brother Li is in Lushan, and it is estimated that he will return to Shu next month. Prince Loulan took a breath: "The old bamboo leaves are clear!" He laughed.
I also laughed and asked Jasper to pour wine and drink a few glasses each. Does the prince also study the wine of the Central Plains? I wrote.
Research? No, no. The wine in the Central Plains is mellow, not as strong as Loulan's wine, but I sometimes drink wine in Loulan.
Wine? I looked at him with a puzzled face and turned his face red.
"Princess, Your Majesty said that you will leave in five days. I think you can enter Shu first and then wait for Brother Li. If Brother Li wants to take you away, then you can go."
I shook my head gently and got drunk. I felt sad and always felt sorry for him, but what could I do? I don't love him! Who made me fall in love with Master Taibai?
"Do you... Brother Li also love you?" His eyelids drooped.
I was stunned. Yes! Does he love me too? I'm afraid he has already forgotten me! No! It's not like this!
"You have seen Master Taibai, otherwise how do you know how dumb I am?"
He looked at my words, his eyes were clear, and his thin lips were bent up, which was very beautiful: "I once drank with Brother Li for three days and drank seventeen jars of aged flower carvings. He said to me that the whole palace, the Rage Moon Palace is a pure land, because there is you in it.
Me?
"Brother Li told me that Lou Lan would not fight with the Tang Dynasty within a hundred years, but she had to guard against the importance of the border. Now the soldiers are self-respecting, but I'm afraid it's difficult for your majesty..." He suddenly changed his words: "He also said that I must take you away. If there is fate, I will travel all the famous mountains with you."
Travel to the famous mountains of the world with me? Does that mean that I can hide with Master Taibai?
"You are his proudest disciple. He doesn't want you to be destroyed in this golden cage. He especially told me to protect your safety."
My tears suddenly fell down, mixed with joy and sorrow.
It turns out that I have always been affectionate. Master Taibai has always regarded me as a child, an ungrown child. And a child is always loved by his elders.
"Forget it, I'll go back to Loulan with you, and I may meet him. Don't go to Shudi, go straight to Loulan!" My tears dripped on the paper, which turned the ink into black flowers. And Prince Loulan smiled astringently, and the knuckles holding the sword had turned white. He stood up, said goodbye to me, and then flew up the wall like a big bird and disappeared into the night in an instant.
Too white. I called in a low voice in my heart, and even the "Master" was abandoned.
Five days later, I left my homeland where I had lived for 17 years and went to a distant country. The sisters cried, but I could see the happiness behind those eyes. Only Sister Wuyue, who sent me to the outskirts of the city and gave me the dance sword as if she were life.
Fourteen days later, we arrived in Xianyang.
"Prince, where will we pass all the way?" I sat on the chair in the post hall and handed the paper to Prince Loulan, who was sitting beside him. We keep going west, passing through Fufeng, Qingshui, Huining, Wuwei, until we pass the Yumen Pass, and then go west, and then we will go to Loulan. He said and drank a glass of wine: "Princess, you don't have to call me prince in the future. Just call me Ankeda."
I smelled the bad wine and nodded unhappily. Now it's not like in the palace. There is no daughter's red bamboo leaf clear flower carving and my special fruit mellow fragrance. There is only such a pot of bad wine, which is also a strong wine. Jasper poured a cup and was taken away by me. My stomach began to burn hotly, and it hurt a little.
"Princess, don't drink this wine! At this time, the people in the market drank it. Be careful not to hurt your body. Ankeda grabbed the wine glass in my hand and asked someone to take it down with the pot of wine. The knife is too strong." He made a cup of tea and put it on the table.
Jasper took out the mad salad, leaving Ankeda and I sitting opposite each other, waiting for the other to speak first. He probably forgot that I was a mute. After a moment of silence, he broke the deadlock first: "Brother Li said that he will never see you again."
"What?" There was a sudden pain in my heart.
"He said it was better not to see each other. As for the reason, he didn't say why, probably because he was afraid of touching the scene. You also know that he is not valued by your father and can't serve the court, so he has to travel between famous mountains and rivers. Do you want to go to him or go back to Loulan with me? If you decide to go to him, I'll do everything. His knuckles turned white again. I'm really afraid that if he works harder, the sword will be deformed by him.
"Taibai doesn't want to see me. Naturally, there is a reason for him. I don't want to embarrass him, I don't want to embarrass you, let alone humiliate my father. So, I have to go with you. Maybe you're right. He thought I was a child, and there was no me in his heart. Since there was no me, why did I shamelessly chase him? It's better to forget it."
He read these words, just smiled astringently and went out of the door.
On the third day, we set off.
After Fufeng, Qingshui, Qin'an, Huining, Lanzhou, Anyuan Town, Wuwei, we stopped in Jinchang. Just because I said I wanted to see the flying eagles on the grassland.
Ankeda only took a small team of people and took a few days to go north. He said it was a small grassland, but I couldn't see its edge at a glance. There are several nomads herding sheep here, like picking off the clouds and letting them move on the grass. The beauty is fascinating. In the sunset, Jasper and Kuangsha exchanged messages with their eyes from time to time. They met my eyes halfway, and the message was interrupted again. Just let them talk enough to relieve the pain of many days of lovesickness.
If it is too white, it will definitely write a famous sentence! My mind flew to the man tens of thousands of miles away, and I haven't come back for a long time. Even if I don't want to see him, how can I stop thinking about him?
"I think of him again!"
Ankeda replaced "Brother Li" with "he", which made me feel uncomfortable.
"He is so important to you, why don't you fight for it?" Ankeda's eyes stared at my pupils and penetrated deeply, making me unable to escape. You miss him because you don't get him, and you don't cherish what you get. You don't regret it until you lose it. It's too late!" He came over and held my shoulder: "Anping, all the way from Chang'an to here, you still can't forget him and still can't face me. Although you are my princess, I didn't force you to do anything, and you torture me every day. Isn't it too unfair and cruel? You have even planned the happiness of jasper. Why do you turn a blind eye to your own happiness? His voice was soft and lingering, like a wounded lone wolf, which made me sad.
I opened his hand, held it, and wrote in the palm of his hand, "I can't forget too white, and I can't forget you. I know how good you are to me, but it's too hard for me to fall in love with you. I have to learn to forget first, and then learn to love before I can accept you. Although I know this is an extremely unfair thing, I can't wake up and forget that I fall in love with you. I can't do it." His hands trembled slightly, gently closed, and put my hands inside, with an astringent smile on his face: "I won't force you. Take your time, but don't wait until I lie under the loess to tell me that you love me, so I can't wait." He took a breath, put my hand on his chest, and said softly, "When I saw you for the first time, I was just surprised. When I saw you for the second time, I was a little confused. It was not until I turned into your lovely moon palace that night that I was convinced that I had loved you. Although I knew that you loved him, I still Your Majesty wants you. I have thought about it. If you leave and go to find Li Bai, I will also remember you for the rest of my life.
My tears were about to overflow again. Fortunately, I was forced back in time, but my body was held in his arms and wrapped around with my arms, which was as warm as spring.
When night fell, Ankeda sent people to set up a tent and make a fire to make something to eat. It was a meal he often ate on the frontier. It was so rough that I even began to feel sorry for him.
The next day, Jasper hurriedly called me up and went out of the tent. I saw Ankedala bow and arrow, aiming at an eagle!
No! I shouted in my heart and grabbed his arm.
"I won't shoot, but if Jasper doesn't call you now, I'm afraid there will be no luck to see the goshawk again!" Ankeda smiled, with a mischievous look in his eyes, like a child who succeeds in mischief. Let's go back. The sheep are very fat now. It's not good in case they meet the wolves. He said he would leave, and the tents disappeared in a blink of an eye.
On the way back to Jinchang, Jasper and Kuangsha had been married by me. They spoke openly, and I also began to pay attention to the prince who was naughty like a child, did things like a brother, and thought like a father.
More than ten days later, we passed through Shandan, Jiuquan, Yumen, Anbei, and arrived at Yumen Pass. In the past few months, I still don't forget Taibai, and An Keda's eyes make me feel guilty. I really don't know what to do.
I sneaked out of the post station and came to the marginal yellow sand outside the city. I looked at the faint sun and thought of Taibai again. That clear and dusty face, that thin and muscleless body, that set of thoughts that do not become the world! How can I forget him? How can I be worthy of the painstakingly waiting for Ankeda?
"Ding beep, beep beep!" Ringtone.
"of, of!" The sound of horses' hoofs.
Why is it so strange that these two sounds are mixed together? Ankeda's horses also ring bells, but it's not so strange. I didn't care and continued to watch the sunset.
"Big boss! This woman still doesn't run!" A presumptuous laughter penetrated into my ears, with a strong Hu sound. I turned around and saw a group of people. If I remember correctly, Ankeda said that there were horse bandits here.
The rider circled around me and smiled, "boss, this woman is not bad-looking, thin and tender. Take it back to be Mrs. Zhai!" Look at this, it doesn't look like the people here!"
A man with a beard got off the horse and came over with a smile, blocking my sight of the sunset.
"Where is the lady's house? Why do you wait here alone? Didn't your brother come? Why don't you let me teach you two hands, and I will serve you in the future! Ah?"
A group of people laughed and kept shouting on the horse, saying things I didn't understand.
The beard stretched out his hand to touch my face, but I patted it off. Then I stretched out my other hand and was patted it off. He approached me, and I could only retreat and keep a distance. He stretched out his hand again, and I slapped five fingerprints on his face, and then everyone stopped laughing.
"Fuck! Bitch, how dare you beat me! Look, I won't tear you up!" He pressed so fiercely that I could only grab the neckline and retreat all the way. In my arms, Sister Wuyue's sword is still there. I think if I can, I will use it to end my life.
"Anping--!" Princess--!" Princess--!"
I turned around and my heart beat wildly: it's Ankeda! It's Ankeda! He came to save me! Come and save me!
I smiled, turned my head and ran, but I was taken back by someone, and then there was a bright steel knife on my neck.
"Brothers, retreat!"
Only then did I know that the beard took me as a hostage.
In an instant, I remembered the scene of Kuangsha threatening me. At that time, Jasper was by my side, but now, there are only horse bandits around me. Three feet away, there was a pair of eagle-like eyes staring at me.
"Ren you!"
I never thought that the first time I saw the general demeanor of Ankeda was the current situation, and those eyes moved me.
"Let go, I'll let you go!" Ankeda walked slowly forward, and I was dragged back by the beard.
"Brothers, get on the horse! Let's go!" He put me on the horse's back, still put a knife around my neck, and ran away as soon as he pulled the reins.
"Hight!"
The people behind are chasing after it. I closed my eyes and felt that those eagle-like eyes had been staring at me, trying to imprint me deeply.
Ankeda!
I shouted in my heart, hoping that he could stare at me with those eagle-like eyes in front of me again, and then raise a happy and sweet smile on his face.
The beard gradually moved away from the horse team. A horse with two people can't run fast. He grabbed my back and threw it back hard. I only heard the wind in my ear, and my eyes were already closed. I must die this time.
"Anping!"
I was caught. Opening my eyes and looking at Ankeda's eagle-like eyes, I hugged his neck tightly: "You are so accurate!"
"If I can't catch you, isn't this martial art in vain?" He smiled bitterly and tightened my building: "Are you all right? Did they touch you? Do you want to let Jasper have a look? I shook my head and felt that he was drawing his sword.
"Kill the horse bandit leader! The others are caught alive!" Ankeda entrusted me to Jasper and Wild Sand and rushed up on horseback. I followed waywardly, and the jasper took care of me, and the mad sand killed the bandits who occasionally rushed over.
The sand is flying all over the sky. I can't see how Ankeda and the dozen attendants are doing. I can only faintly hear his voice.
"...kill her!"
I watched a knife fly over and couldn't avoid it. Jasper and Kuangsha were in the horse bandit circle and couldn't get out of it. When they saw the knife, it was too late. The knife rushed straight to my chest, and suddenly a dark shadow pulled me to the ground, and then I heard a cracking sound.
"Princess!" Prince! Prince Ankeda!"
No matter whether we were covered in blood, Jasper and Kuangsha rushed over to help me and that man.
Ankeda!
I looked at this pale face and panicked. Looking down, I was almost sad to die: the knife pierced Ankeda's left chest and abdomen!
Ankeda! Ankeda! I crawled over and picked him up. I was so scared. Even if the bandit wanted to take me away, I was not so afraid to kill me. I'm afraid of losing him, I'm afraid of losing those eagle-like eyes, the once astringent smile, and the thin and beautiful lips. I'm scared! I'm scared!
I didn't care if the mad sand was stopping the bleeding for him, but held him with tears until I returned to the post hall.
I made all the decoction, feeding, and cold compresses. I don't want anyone to touch him! Not now, not in the future! He is my husband! I don't want anyone to touch him!
Ankeda, wake up! Wake up! I'm scared! I'm really scared! Please! Wake up! I'm in love with you! Please! I want to write it to you!
On the afternoon of the fourth day, I was still looking at him with tears. I take care of him sleeplessly just to make him feel better. But why don't those eagle-like eyes open? I won't let you have an astringent smile on your face anymore!
"Anping..."
I quickly wiped away my tears and listened carefully.
"Anping..."
He woke up! He woke up! My Akeda is awake!!!
I rushed out of the door and asked Jasper to find the doctor. I folded back and knelt in front of his bed. I watched him open his eyes, gently spread out his palm and wrote, "You finally woke up!" Finally woke up! I want to tell you one thing: I'm in love with you!"
Ankeda looked at me gently, and his weak voice floated over faintly: "When?" Just when I was put on my neck with a knife by a bandit, or earlier. Maybe it's on that grassland, maybe it's in the Crescent Palace, maybe it's when I first saw you, but I didn't know.
He smiled happily and sweetly, like a child.
Three months later, we arrived in Loulan.
On the wall, I snuggled in Ankeda's arms and was wrapped in a large coat, looking at the sun in the west. There is also a big word "happy" left on the wall pillar next to it.
