Slave to Queen: One Night Bride

Chapter 158 Mrs. Jin

By the Liangjing River.

The first thing that catches the eye is hundreds of tents, large and small, on the flat ground.At this time, the sun was shining brightly, Hua Rong had no choice but to be attracted by the strange and beautiful grassland scenery beyond the Great Wall.

The Liangjing River is in the northwest of Yanjing, with a clear river to the north and a grassland where nasturtium blooms to the south.At this time, it is the season when the nasturtium is in full bloom. This kind of flower is a famous flower in the Kingdom of Jin. There are several flowers on one stem, each with seven-color petals. The flowers are huge, and a large area blooms continuously, almost covering the entire land.

At this time, there are already many men and women on the grassland, all wearing bright clothes, laughing and playing in this splendid sea of ​​flowers.

Sitting on the horseback, Hua Rong looked around. She really didn't expect that there is such a good place in the bitter cold north, which is completely different from the south.

She breathed in the rich fragrance of the grassland, and thought of the poem "The wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep", and she felt very relieved.Every nation has its own way of survival and joy of life, nomadic outside the Great Wall, and farming in the Central Plains, why do the ethnic groups outside the Great Wall always invade the Huahua World of the Central Plains?
By the river, flocks of wild ducks and wild geese, as well as some unknown beautiful birds, flashed colorful feathers and chirped in the sun.

She was watching intently, when she heard a "whoosh", Jin Wushu shot an arrow, and there was a burst of cheers, a guard ran up and picked up two wild geese, Jin Wushu said loudly: "Hua Rong, Today I will let you have a taste of my Dajin's wild game."

She didn't take it seriously, and from a distance, she saw Zong Han and several Jurchen nobles coming out of the huge tent, and behind them, Yu Wenxu and others followed.

It's just that there are no Zhang Xian and others.

When she saw Yu Wenxuzhong, she was both happy and scared. Could it be that Yuwen Xuzhong had betrayed?

However, when he got closer, he saw that Yu Wenxu was haggard, and he definitely didn't look like a surrender.

Yu Wenxu was also surprised and delighted to see her, the two greeted briefly, Zong Han had already interrupted their conversation, and looked at Jin Wushu coldly: "Wushu, why are you late for today's discussion?"

"Is it late? I think it's just right. Also, wouldn't it be better to hold this meeting in the second brother's tent?"

Zong Han turned to look at Hua Rong, glared at her fiercely, then looked at the scars on Jin Wushu's face, and sneered: "Stop talking nonsense, let's start right away."

Jin Wushu winked, Wu Qi stepped over and said in a low voice: "Girl, please go to the fourth prince's tent."

He obtained the Golden Wu technique, never called "Mrs. Yue", but always referred to as "Miss".

Seeing her leaving with Wu Qimai, Jin Wushu entered Zonghan's tent.There was a fierce quarrel at the alliance meeting two days ago, and the wolf lord has personally sent someone from Shangjing to Yanjing.Zong Wang intervened in the middle to mediate, suggesting to go hunting and hunting in the Liangjing River, while discussing matters, in an attempt to ease the relationship.According to the meaning of Wolf Lord and Jin Wushu, it was discussed in the Zongwang tent, but Zong Han knew that changing the location would mark the loss of authority, and he would never give in.His tent is also the largest and most luxurious among the princes, surrounded by his five thousand elite soldiers.

Jin Wushu saw banners waving around, soldiers all dressed in black and white, they were the elite Jurchen troops.He sneered, Zong Han is showing off his force.

Zong Han said coldly: "Wu Shu, I heard that you have a tigress at home?"

Jin Wushu said angrily: "What did you say?"

Zong Han laughed wildly: "You useless thing, you were beaten up like this by a woman, and you thought everyone didn't know about it? Wushu, you really disgraced me, a big gold man, and confessed a tigress like a fairy , did you fall under Song Zhu's Gu?"

The sound of "Song pig" was heard in his ears, and Jin Wushu added fuel to the fire. He rushed forward and grabbed Zong Han: "It turns out that you are the one who caused trouble in my mansion and insulted me..."

"Wu Shu, don't provoke me..."

"You still don't admit..."

At this time, several other princes had come in one after another, Zong Wang pulled Jin Wushu, Gu Shen pulled Zong Han, and separated the two.Gu Shen shouted: "Wu Shu, are you going to rebel?"

Jin Wushu sneered: "You guys are about to turn against each other."

Zong Han's complexion suddenly changed, and he stopped arguing, Zong Wang hurriedly said: "Brothers, stop fighting."

Everyone sat down, their faces were cloudy and uncertain.

Seeing Jin Wushu's sneer, Zong Han was even more annoyed, and said loudly, "Wushu, why have you repeatedly opposed me?"

"When did I go against you?"

"How dare you obstruct me from arresting Song prisoners."

Jin Wushu pretended to be surprised: "Isn't Yuwen Xuzhong in your hands?"

Zong Wang hurriedly stopped him, and patted the two of them: "Shooting today is a joy, don't hurt your friendship."

Zong Han is in the center, and the envoy of the Wolf Lord is on the left.A group of princes lined up on both sides.Everyone knows that today, the peace talks between Song and Jin are secondary, and the main thing is that the internal power struggle has reached its peak.

There were endless disputes in the big tent, but it was a different scene outside.

Most of the followers are the family members of the Jurchen nobles, and almost everyone has one or several Song girls as concubines. On the grassland, there are many Chinese people bustling with each other.

Hua Rong stood beside Jin Wushu's tent, and was going to meet Yu Wenxuzhong alone, but Yu Wenxuzhong was watched by two golden men, and entered another tent, and was never allowed to come out again.

At this moment, Hua Rong listened to the surrounding Chinese, not only did not feel kind, but was very distressed in his heart. These were all vivid displays of Jingkang's shame.

She looked at those Song girls, many of whom had already resigned to their fate, especially the concubines who were outstanding in appearance and favored by Jurchen men, chatting and laughing happily, watching the beautiful grassland scenery, mixing with Khitan, Jurchen and other women, they were so happy The point of madness.They ran around picking nasturtiums all over the place, put them on each other's heads, laughed and laughed, and went to the still water on the river bank to take pictures together, seeing the flowers all over their heads bring a new and exotic style to their homes, they all giggled in amazement laugh.

Yelu Guanyin is also listed, she is counted as a family member of Jin Wushu, but she is still in her sister's tent.Originally, when he saw Jin Wushu, he wanted to come over, but when he saw Hua Rong was at the door, he stopped.

Her sister asked her in a low voice: "The fourth prince wants to marry that Song girl?"

She was ambiguous and very angry in her heart: "I really don't know what the fourth prince likes about that tigress..."

"I heard that the fourth prince's face was injured by her?"

"Who else is it not her?"

"Ah? Is it really her? Dare to be so vicious before passing the door, but it's okay after passing the door? Is the fourth prince also 'fear of internal affairs'?"

…………

Hua Rong went back to the tent and sat down, when suddenly the curtain was lifted, and a woman walked in.The woman was dressed in the service of a golden man's upper class woman, with a red dress on her upper body, a golden long skirt on her lower body, and a golden crown on her braided hair, which is the kind of golden hair crown that golden women like.

Hua Rong was a little surprised, and immediately recognized that it was Princess Maode. Among all the female relatives, Maode's appearance was indeed worthy of the first place, even better than Yelu Guanyin, the so-called number one beauty in the grassland.

The two looked at each other, and Princess Maode spoke first: "The scenery outside is very beautiful, why don't Madam Yue go out and enjoy it?"

"I've seen the princess. I've already seen it briefly. The scenery of the grassland is very different from that of the Southern Dynasty after all."

The two sat down, and Princess Maode said in a low voice: "After meeting Mrs. Yue at the Shooting Willow Festival, my father, mother and concubine have been longing to see Mrs. Yue again, but unfortunately they never had the chance."

Hua Rong let out a long sigh: "There is no personal freedom for envoys to the Kingdom of Jin, so we really can't meet each other. Princess, are you alright?"

Maode nodded sadly: "Fortunately, the second prince took pity on him and never suffered. But, my father, queen, mother and concubine, alas, they have poor clothes and poor food. There are also Jiusao and Mrs. Wei, all suffering in the laundry yard..."

Hua Rong said lightly: "Empress Xing has committed suicide."

"Where is Mrs. Wei?"

Hua Rong knew that he couldn't keep it a secret among the Song captives, and he didn't need to hide it. He just said, "The Empress Dowager Wei married a Jurchen man, and she is currently pregnant with Liujia."

Maode was stunned, silent for a long time, not very surprised, just said: "Miss Wei, how could she do this?! Ninth Brother, alas, she is Ninth Brother's mother!"

Hua Rong is silent, how can it be up to Empress Dowager Wei to decide?
"Poor Ninth Sister-in-law has no luck. Madam Yue, what is my Ninth Brother's plan for your visit this time?"

She was eager to know whether Brother Nine would work hard and whether her father and brother would be able to return to the south. The reason why she made compromises with Zongwang was also in exchange for her father and brother to return to the south.Hua Rong couldn't tell the truth that the only person Zhao Deji wanted to save was the Empress Dowager Wei, so he said, "The officials are looking forward to your return every day."

Even if it was a lie, Maode also got some comfort, and his eyes lit up: "To be honest, I have been serving the second prince in every possible way these days, begging him every day, and he finally agreed to let my father and brother return to the south as soon as the order from the wolf master came... ..."

When Hua Rong saw Zong Han's posture, his heart skipped a beat, but he didn't dare to be as optimistic as Mao De.

Mao De said again: "In the past few days, the eldest prince and the fourth prince had a fierce dispute, and I am afraid that there will be another change of mind. Mrs. Yue, can you intercede with the fourth prince and ask him to say more good things..."

Jin Wushu searched mountains and seas to arrest Zhao Deji, he is a fanatical main fighter, and to intercede with him is simply seeking skin from a tiger.

"I heard from the second prince that the fourth prince loves you very much and is even willing to marry you as his wife. If you beg him, he will definitely agree..."

"Hehe, what the princess said is wrong. Since you call me 'Mrs. Yue', you should know. How could I marry Jin Wushu?"

Maode sighed: "I don't know! I was also the wife of Cai Zhonglang (Cai Jing's son) at the beginning, but I had to commit myself to the second prince. The country was ruined and the family was destroyed. What can a mere woman do? I had to give up the loving relationship between husband and wife and commit myself to the second prince. Serving the enemy is not for my broken body, but for the safety of my father and brother..."

When Song Huizong and others first arrived in the Kingdom of Jin, the Jin people did not even provide food and clothing. They only gave each person five buckets of barnyard grass and some cotton and linen to support themselves. These people could neither weave nor farm, and most of them died of starvation.Later, with Zongwang's permission, Maode secretly took property to help his father and brother many times, and they barely survived.Over the past year, Song Guo has visited three or four batches of envoys, but none of them returned. Seeing that Yu Wenxu was detained, she concluded that Hua Rong naturally had no chance of escape and could only rely on Jin Wushu.

Hua Rong really couldn't blame her for thinking, and felt at a loss in his heart, everyone knew that Jin Wushu was now a wolf shepherding the sheep, how long could he survive?
She whispered: "I have heard the second prince talk about the grievances between you and the fourth prince. The fourth prince really likes you, far from being comparable to a prisoner like this slave. I also heard that Yelu Guanyin is his second wife. The second prince guessed that he is keeping the position of wife for you. The way the fourth prince treats you is far from being comparable to how the second prince treats a slave. If you beg him, he will definitely agree..."

Everyone agrees that "Mrs. Yue" is going to become "Mrs. Jin"?

Hua Rong shook his head indifferently, whether the "Second Sage" can return to the south is definitely not a matter of a few concubines begging the nobles of the Jin Kingdom to achieve their goal.And Princess Maode, always wants to grab life-saving, even if it is a straw.

She only said: "Since Hua Rong came here according to the order, he will do his best, not only the 'Second Sage', but also the Queen Mother, etc. Princess, please rest assured."
