The love of Daqin

Chapter 2;

The August Lake is level, the confinement is too clear, the clouds are vaporized, and the city of Yueyang is shaken by waves.

The former Dongting Lake is the ancient Yunmeng Lake, the most extensive lake in China, with a territory area of ​​450 kilometers.It is also the most beautiful royal holy land in Chu State.

Flowers bloom all year round here. Legend has it that Emperor Shun's daughter, Ehuang Nuying, was born here and has been living with a fairy concubine.

The women who grew up drinking Yunmeng Zeshui water are all big eyes, beautiful and slender waist, graceful and graceful.

In 365 BC, in the middle of the Warring States Period, Chu State was one of the most powerful countries with a vast territory and millions of armors.

But in ancient times, the ancestors of the Chu state were the descendants of Zhu Rong, who were called barbarians.Therefore, fire is the weapon for their survival, and the bear is the beast of the Chu people, so the surname Mi, the Xiong family.

During the Zhou Dynasty, the commander of the state of Chu was only the advisor of Emperor Zhou.

When the world was settled and divided, the leaders of the Chu people were only assigned the title of jue, the lowest rank among the princes.

The territory is only 50 miles away, so he will always wait outside the palace to meet the emperor of Zhou, and he is not qualified to participate in the feudal feudal alliance.

But the people of Chu are very motivated. They are brave and tenacious. After several generations of efforts, they have continuously recovered small neighboring countries, relying on the natural barrier and rich products of Chu.

The rise of the state of Chu was crowned king, and it rivaled the royal family of Zhou.

Yunmengze has a pair of sisters named Mi Xiaoya and Zheng Xiuer.

One often goes out with adults to pick camellias, and the other practice singing, dancing and singing by the lake all day.

Mi Xiaoya is a fallen noble of the Chu state. Her great-grandfather once ran into the royal court, so she was sent to Yunmengze's hunting factory.

Therefore, Mi Xiaoya grew up in Yunmengze since she was born, and was accompanied by ferocious animals.

At the age of six, Mi Xiaoya's father died, and her mother remarried a wealthy businessman surnamed Wei because she couldn't stand the poverty in her family, and gave birth to a younger brother named Wei Ran.

Since then, Mi Xiaoya has lived with her grandmother.Grandma taught her to read and write since she was a child, and when she grew up, she taught her Nvhong, but these Mi Xiaoya didn't like to learn.

Zheng Xiu's mother was a concubine and had a low status, so although her family was well-off in business, she was also an unpopular young lady.So Zheng Xiu sneaks out every day, finds a place where no one is around, and hums a song.

When she was ten years old, one day, Mi Xiaoya's mother brought someone to take her out of Yunmengze.It was the first time that Mi Xiaoya met her younger brother Wei Ran, who was seven years younger than her. Her eyes were bright and sturdy.

When Wei Ran saw Mi Xiaoya for the first time, she kindly took her hand and called her "sister" softly.

Mi Xiaoya looked at the half-brother in front of her. Although she was only three years old, she was smart and smart, and she gave an embarrassed "um".

Mi Xiaoya stubbornly rejected her mother's good intentions, and refused to leave Yun Mengze. She wanted to spend the rest of her life with her grandmother in Yun Mengze, and she even had a fierce quarrel with her mother.

So her mother had to leave with her brother in her arms, leaving some clothes and silver taels for Mi Xiaoya before leaving.

Grandma said, "It's good for your mother to pick you up, why don't you go?"

Mi Xiaoya said, "She picks me up now, just to see that I am approaching the age of first marriage, and to promise me a good marriage in exchange for some money."

Grandma was surprised that her granddaughter, at such a young age, could see so thoroughly, and was very pleased.

"Women will get married sooner or later," said the grandmother.

"I have to stay with my grandma forever, so I won't marry." Mi Xiaoya pouted.

One day Mi Xiaoya was on her way to look for Zheng Xiuer by the river, when she heard a male voice singing a ballad in front of her.

"Guan Guan Jujiu, in Hezhizhou, a slender lady, a gentleman is a good man."

Who is this?It sounded so nice, Mi Xiaoya curiously followed the sound.
