female concubine

Nine months ago, it was midsummer in the 11th year of Jianping.

Floating down the northeast direction along the countercurrent river, it hit the reef under the turbulence, and the moment it touched it, it woke up the dying person.

King Chu struggled to get up from the shoal, but found that his swollen body was numb and had no feeling, let alone the strength to support her to do anything. The dark sky gradually brightened but her vision became more and more blurred. There was no sound of horseshoes coming from the side of my ear.

The fast horse galloped all the way east, and the steed was dragging a woman in exotic attire.

-----------------------------

When he woke up again, the beam of light hit his face through the broken window, and instead of the swollen river water under him, it was replaced by dry grass. People who saw a few spider webs opened their eyes.

"Hey, you're not dead?"

Seeing that she was still breathing, the woman who dragged her back lit a bonfire in the ruined temple, but because she was wearing Song army armor, she hesitated between saving her and not being able to make a choice, so she had to throw her away. To the side, thinking that he would wake up before making plans, and if he couldn't wake up, he couldn't blame her.

The bonfire made her feel a little warmth, and the unwillingness to die supported her to survive.

"You are really lucky, you are not dead?" The hot weather woman sat away from the bonfire, "But this girl will not save you."

The person lying on the hay had several injuries, including what appeared to be burns in addition to knife wounds.

The king of Chu struggled to get up, but he was shot by an arrow in his leg and couldn't move. Seeing her, the woman seemed to have reluctance and sorrow in the face of death.

The sad expression made her feel unbearable, so she sighed and said, "The war is the fault of the one who started the war. What has it to do with the people and the soldiers." There are wound medicines, and there will be some food to eat soon, if you ask me, I may give alms to save you if I am happy."

The woman scratched her head immediately, "Oh, I forgot that he is a Han Chinese and I can't understand..."

The King of Chu said weakly: "If you save me, I will promise you one thing, whatever you want."

"You can speak party language?" The woman immediately covered her mouth and laughed, "Hey, you are seriously injured now, and I am a dignified girl...do you need a promise from a pawn?"

The woman asked curiously again: "But you can speak the language of Daxia... Are you a border dweller?"

The two armies were still fighting, and he was seriously injured. Now there is only a glimmer of hope in the person in front of him. The King of Chu nodded without thinking, "I was forced to join the army."

For this, the woman felt deeply guilty, "I just brought you here, you are obviously a soldier, but why do I think you look like a woman, are you a man or a woman?"

This question penetrated King Chu's heart and asked about her pain, "What do you think, Miss?"

"Could it be Hua Mulan in the Han Dynasty?"

The king of Chu didn't nod or shake his head, but just opened his unwilling eyes, "I never forget that I am a woman, and I don't hate that I am a woman. It can keep me alert at all times. Only when a person is in fear will he struggle desperately and keep moving towards you." Before." Gradually, he murmured to himself: "There are too many injustices in this world, and if you want to break it with your own power, you must have enough shaking power."

The woman scratched her head as if she didn't quite understand, "I thought you were a man before, men and women are different, and I wanted to wait for them to find me before handing you over to the military doctor. I don't understand what you said, but it makes sense. From the conversation, she guessed that the person lying on the ground should know a lot.

"Let me treat your wound first." The woman moved towards her and began to remove her armor step by step.

It didn't take long before the sound of horseshoes came from outside the ruined temple, and several maids rode over when they saw the familiar horses in front of the temple.

Regardless of whether this person hurts or not, the woman wrapped the cloth strips around the wound and tied it hard, "You wait for me here for a while."

Seeing the master walking out of the ruined temple with blood stains on his body, the two maids were shocked, "Princess, you..."

"I'm fine. I'm tired and don't want to ride a horse. You go back and drive out now, and bring some more clothes of yours."

"Our clothes?" The master's voice didn't sound like he was injured, but what he said was so strange that the two waitresses were suspicious.

She pushed the two waitresses forward, "Oh, I caught something interesting, don't tell me Ah Soo."

"Yes."

------------------

After treating the wound for her, the princess changed the clothes brought by the maid for her. The dilapidated armor was thrown aside. She picked up the mirror that fell from King Chu's chest. There was a groove on the mirror, " Oh, it turned out that this mirror blocked an arrow for you."

"Give it back to me!" The pale man waved his hand with some strength, but it was useless.

"Isn't it just a broken mirror? It's a rare thing." She threw the mirror back to King Chu.

"I've read Mulan Ci in the Han book "Ancient and Modern Music Records". Ah Sock said that you people from the Central Plains can't let women go to the battlefield. This kind of stuff is all nonsense. I didn't expect it to be encountered by me."

"Since you know our language, do you know the poetry and books of the Central Plains? I heard that you Central Plains women don't read these books."

King Chu nodded slightly.

The woman clapped her hands happily, "Great!"

——Boom! ——

"Master, the carriage is here, and it has brought some food. The general will come to pick you up later."

The Princess of Xixia opened the dilapidated door, brought in a plate of mutton, and deliberately placed it far away from the King of Chu, "The war has stopped for two days, if you don't eat, you may starve to death if you don't suffer from pain. "

The princess drew out a dagger, cut a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, "And your injury, I only have a rough knowledge of medicine, and I have never been treated by others when I grow up. If I don't let the medical officer diagnose and treat me, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive." As he spoke, he cut off the meat piece by piece.

Listening to the tone, it seems that the woman has some request, the roasted meat is full of fragrance, the king of Chu is lying on the hay wearing the maid's clothes, hungry and sleepy, helplessly said: "What do you want me to do?"

"Follow me back to Daxia to be my attendant, oh, don't be my bachelor, according to your Central Plains dialect, it should be called Mr."

"Impossible." King Chu turned his head away.

"Oh?" The Xixia princess brought the meat closer, "I have looked around this place, and there is not even a field for you to grow wheat. As long as I leave, you will definitely not survive tonight. This place is surrounded by mountains, and there are still a lot of people around here." There are wolves."

King Chu twisted his face.

Seeing that she still didn't respond, Princess Xixia tied up a piece of mutton and ate it, "Hey, I wouldn't have saved you if I didn't see you as a woman. Forget it, since you're so ignorant, I'll throw you to the wolves."

King Chu turned his head, frowned awkwardly and said, "I can go back with you, as long as you save me..."

"Of course, this girl keeps her word." Princess Xixia then cut the cooked meat into a small piece and put it into King Chu's mouth.

He looked at the scars on her face and thought for a long time, "The scars on your face, if I just bring you back to the barracks, Ah Sock will definitely ask you..." After thinking for a long time, he smiled and said, "Yes."

She went out and took a quick veil, "This way others can't see it. The military doctor is the master who taught me medical science, and you are a woman. Ah Soo should be able to get away with my private affairs."

Then the woman called the maid to carry the King of Chu and her into the carriage.

"There are also Han people in Xixia, why are you holding onto me?"

The man who wiped the dagger stared at her and said with a smile: "The prey I hunted by myself is naturally much more interesting than the ones sent by others."

"you..."

The King of Chu was lying on the carriage and could not move. It would take a long time to wait for the injury to heal, so there was nothing else he could do except attachment and patience.

The carriage went all the way to the west, and the sun was shining on the face. Princess Xixia looked at the slightly yellowed winter wheat, "Do you know why I want to arrest you?"

King Chu was lying in the carriage, just staring blankly at the grooved mirror.

Regardless of whether there was an answer or not, the woman still said to herself: "This time the war ceases, Ah Soo should withdraw his troops and go back."

Only this sentence attracted the attention of King Chu, "Withdraw the army?" She turned her head to look at the woman.

"I heard that the court of your Han people is full of suspicion, and the monarchs and ministers suspect that the generals are at odds?"

The king of Chu turned his head to the side again, "I'm just a pawn and an ordinary citizen. I don't understand the affairs of the court. I only know...an emperor who makes the people suffer is definitely not a good emperor."

"It's hard for a person in a high position to let himself go. It's only natural that a girl has never felt it and doesn't know it."

"You are in a high position..." The King of Chu looked at her hesitantly, "I am just a pawn of the infantry who went to the battle with the army, but you should win this battle."

The woman just shook her head and asked, "Have you ever hurt your throat?"

The King of Chu raised his hand with difficulty, touched his throat, "Yes."

"Why does such a pretty girl wear armor and serve in the army..." Just now the king of Chu had said that the emperor of the Central Plains caused the people to suffer, so he subconsciously stopped, "It's a pity on this face, the scars will take many years to fade away. " Then asked: Do you have a husband?But even if there is, I will not let you go. "

"Husband?" Chu Wang opened his eyes, "I don't have a husband, but I have..." After some hesitation, he continued: "The one who wants to join hands for a lifetime."

"A person who will join hands for a lifetime?" The woman lowered her head and smiled, "Originally, I also had it. Since the grassland of Dangxiang became a fertile field in your Central Plains, the boy grew up and was destined to become the king of this country."

The King of Chu was surprised and said, "Your Majesty?"

Halfway through the carriage, we ran into Xixia iron cavalry who came to meet us. At this time, it had been a day since the princess of Xixia disappeared. Please forgive me, princess."

The door of the carriage was opened, and Princess Xixia looked at his father's confidant general in front of the carriage, "I just came out to get some air, so is it necessary to mobilize people like this?"

"The princess?"

"I forgot to tell you, my name is Han Ling, and I'm the daughter of Party Marshal Wei Mu's family."

The King of Chu only felt a burst of distress in his heart, and he was so depressed that he could not speak. He was about to die at the hands of Wei Mushi, but was rescued by his daughter. The current situation is more like being captured than being rescued.

[Before the war, Xiao Xianrong was still discussing with him in the tent of the King of Chu.

"Shen Yi'an deliberately separated the lower official from the six kings because he wanted the six kings to escape the protection of the lower official."

The king of Chu looked at the bright candle, "The horse army on the left wing is the horse army in front of the temple, maybe even the manpower for the assassination has been arranged."

Xiao Xianrong worried: "Six kings, do you need to..."

The King of Chu shook his head, "In the chaos, who remembers the face in the armor? Taishan only needs to protect himself."

"The next official will definitely be careful, and will also follow the Xiao family to assist the six great kings to achieve great things."

The King of Chu nodded and waved to him, and then a young guard came in.

"Six kings."

"Do you still have concerns at home?"

The guard knelt down on his knees, "The little one was bought by the six kings. Because of the famine, the relatives couldn't escape, so the little one was locked in a cage and sold like Kunlun slaves. The prince provided me with food and clothing, and people Teach me martial arts, just like reborn parents."

"My martial arts skills are not as good as yours, and I'm afraid I will be hard-pressed to defeat those unruly people." King Chu pointed to the armor he had replaced, "I'm not greedy for life and afraid of death, but I can't die."]

The remaining strength was exhausted in the dialogue and vigilance, and the lying person gradually fell into a coma.

Two female maids helped King Chu into Mu Liang, the princess, and Wei Mu Hanling sent someone to call for a military doctor.

Half an hour later, the military doctor walked out of the princess's Muliang, glanced behind him, then turned and went to the commander's tent.

"Reporting to Mo Ningling, she is a Han woman who was affected by the war. Her injuries are not serious, but she is no longer in serious danger after being diagnosed and treated by the lower officials."

"Is she a Han woman..." Wei Mu Shanxi tilted his head, beckoning, "Herald officer."

"exist."

"Let the princess let the Han woman go, tell her that she will be a class teacher soon, and stop messing around."

"Yes."
