After the divorce, the salted fish beauty took the script of the villain

Chapter 663 Fox City

Xie Jue and Fang Chuning made an appointment at a racecourse in the suburbs of Beijing. Fang Chuning was also very familiar with the racecourse. When they returned to Beijing, Xie Zhang, the three brothers Xie Jue and Xie Xun all liked to come to the racecourse to race horses, and occasionally stayed for a few days. Fang Chuning followed them even if they had nothing to do. Get up and play at the racecourse.Deep in the racecourse is a bamboo forest. This is near Yilingzhuang, with beautiful mountains and clear water. In winter, the sky is filled with snowflakes. The mountains are cold and clear, with gurgling water. There is also the faint fragrance of falling bamboo leaves and snow, mixed with the fragrance of tea, which is refreshing and refreshing.

Xie Jue stood in the pavilion wrapped in white fur and looked at the way he came. The wind blew through the bamboo forest and snowflakes rustled down. Fang Chuning came walking on the snow. Xie Jue couldn't help but look at the familiar and evil face in the snow. I remember the Northern Barbarians that year.

In the seventh year of Jianming Dynasty, Xie Jue was 17 years old. He crossed the Shaling River from the Ningzhou border and entered Qianling Town, the northern barbarian town closest to the Ningzhou border, and found a contact person for the northern barbarians.Ningzhou and the Northern Barbarians have been fighting for so many years, and they have infiltrated each other. The Northern Barbarians have planted chess pieces in the Ningzhou Iron Cavalry Army, and the Ningzhou Iron Cavalry has also planted chess pieces in the Northern Barbarian Army. Several Ningzhou women have married Northern Barbarians. , secretly conveying information to the Ningzhou Cavalry.The person who came to pick up Xie Jue was a Ningzhou woman who had been married to Qianling Town for 20 years and had three sons and one daughter with a Northern Barbarian.The youngest son drowned by the Shaling River when he was five years old and disappeared without a trace. Now Xie Jue plays the role of the woman's long-lost son named He Lianfeng.

Xie Jue had been in contact with the woman for two months and was already familiar with the situation in Qianling Town and at home. Because his facial features were too obvious, Xie Jue learned the art of disguise from the military camp, adjusted his appearance, and applied special cream to his skin. , darker than his original skin color, his eyebrows were specially drawn black and deep, and the freckles on his right cheek could not be washed away, and his hair was combed into a Northern Barbarian bun. Even those who had seen Xie Jue on the battlefield might not be able to Recognizable, he looks like a dark-skinned, ordinary northern barbarian young man.

Xie Jue chose to enter Qianling Town at this time because Qianling Town wanted to select a group of boys to serve in the Northern Barbarian Imperial Court. The Helian family happened to be selected. Xie Jue used the identity of He Lianfeng to come from Qianling Town. Enter the Northern Barbarian Imperial Court.

He first lived in Helian's house for half a month, getting more familiar with the town, imitating the demeanor of the northern barbarians, adapting to the northern barbarian food, and correcting his accent.

Half a month later, the imperial court indeed sent someone to pick up the selected boys. A total of fifty boys were selected from Qianling Town. It is said that these people were selected to the Northern Barbarian Imperial Court and could hardly return to their hometown, so among the boys There was a lot of wailing, some of the boys were only about ten years old, and their parents cried heartbreakingly, but it didn't change the outcome.

It is two days' journey from Qianling Town to the Northern Barbarian Imperial Court. This is Xie Jue's first time entering the hinterland of the Northern Barbarians. The deepest place they usually go into is the Shaling Tianshan Mountains, but there is an ambush on the Tianshan Mountains with the Northern Barbarian army, and they cannot enter. Too deep.This time, they crossed the Shaling Tianshan Mountains directly from the northeast of Qianling Town and entered the depths of the Beiman hinterland.

It's so cold!
When Xie Jue came to Beiman, it was early autumn. It had just turned cold in Ningzhou, and Beiman was already covered in ice and snow, with heavy snow falling. They hiked into the Shaling Tianshan Mountains, and everywhere they looked, there was white snow, and the snow from the Tianshan Mountains. Wolves, snow leopards, etc. In winter, huge falcons occasionally fly over the snow-capped mountains. Some people dig mines deep in the snow-capped mountains. The mines will be in the lee. When there is heavy snow, they can avoid the cold wind in the mines.The weather here has changed greatly. Just now, there was a violent storm and snow, and soon the sun was shining brightly. But not a quarter of an hour after the sun came out, there was a heavy downpour mixed with snow that was freezing and clinging to the bones.

Xie Jue had not encountered such weather, so he was inevitably a little uneasy. He entered Beiman with enthusiasm, but actually had no detailed plan. This place was far away from the Ningzhou cavalry, and life and death depended on himself. From the moment he stepped into the Shaling Tianshan Mountains , his life and death can only depend on himself.

After marching for two days, we finally crossed the Tianshan Mountains. There is only one road in the Tianshan Mountains leading to the outside. This road is a military road and is extremely strictly guarded. Everyone who crosses this road must go through strict choices.Their names, identities, and tokens all had to be checked. After all the verifications, they were finally selected into the Northern Barbarian Imperial Court.The Imperial Court of the Northern Barbarians is located in Fox City, east of Shaling Tianshan Mountain. The entire capital is covered in white snow. The city wall is made of stone and red sand ore, which is extremely hard. Outside the city is a stone ballista forged from red sand ore. It has dozens of stones. With these red sand mines and crossbow vehicles, it is almost impossible to attack Fox City. The Ningzhou Cavalry does not have enough equipment to deal with the red sand mines.

After all the boys were sent to Fox City, they were also sent to the Imperial City. Ten people lived in a big shop, which was very crowded. Xie Jue knew that this time he chose boys to serve in the Northern Barbarian Imperial Court, and he chose the one with no hands. Why did a young boy with such strength choose Qianling Town to choose a boy? It was because Qianling Town was a border buffer zone and the only town in the Northern Barbarians that had intermarriage with Ningzhou people in the early days. The blood was impure.

The status of the people in Qianling Town is not even as good as that of a war horse in the Northern Barbarians, and very few men in Qianling Town have participated in the war for many years.The Northern Barbarians feel that they are the only descendants of the gods and a blessed nation. However, the Northern Barbarians who are mixed with the blood of Ningzhou are not pure-blooded Northern Barbarians. They have a low status and can only serve others.So every time the imperial court needed servants, they would choose them from Qianling Town.

The boy needs to be trained in the imperial city for a month. He must understand the interpersonal relationships of the Northern Barbarian royal family, know the preferences of the royal children, and learn how to serve others.

The Northern Barbarians retained a slavery system for the people of Qianling Town. The hierarchy was strict and the servants could not resist. Once they resisted, they could be killed at will. Therefore, the mother-in-law warned all the boys that they must restrain their tempers and be submissive. As long as they survive for five years, they can get it. Freedom, return to Qianling Town. As far as Xie Jue knows, there are very few young people who can return to Qianling Town for the selection of servants every three years. Even if they are lucky enough to come back alive, they are still walking corpses. This shows that the Northern Barbarian Imperial Court is not something blessed land.

Xie Jue has never been a waiter, but he has been patient this month and is familiar with everything about the Northern Barbarians. He also knows that he is deep in the hinterland and has no choice, so he is cautious and does not expose his true nature. He is hardworking and taciturn. He is still considered a wife. The child's eyes.

During this period, boys were not allowed to move around at will, so Xie Jue never had time to take a good look at everything in Fox City. The buildings in Fox City were almost the same as Ningzhou City. It was more prosperous than Ningzhou, and the houses were dotted with various All kinds of gems, crystal clear colored stones, etc., looked colorful and beautiful, so the Northern Barbarian nobles and royal family also dressed up very gorgeously. Xie Jue had seen several young princesses from a distance, all dressed up. Be gorgeous and energetic.Two boys were beaten until they were bleeding because they looked at a few more.

Xie Jue has been in Fox City for nearly half a month and finally has a chance to go out freely.
