Slave to Queen: One Night Bride

Chapter 438 Seeking Medicine
After drinking the fish soup, the little tiger fell asleep after playing for a day.King Qin went to the bedside to look at him, stretched out his big hand to stroke his head, and saw his long eyelashes hanging like a row of fans, grinning, dreaming of something weird.After all, a child can feel like a duck to water without his mother.But what about adults?

He strode out and returned to his room, seeing the mess of the room, the smell of alcohol, the smell of sweat... I don't know when this room became so messy, and he didn't want to let the minions clean it up.

It seemed to carry a breath, a familiar feminine breath.Here, spending a year with a woman day and night, her gentle eyes, combing my hair, gently massaging myself, and sometimes cooking a few small dishes by myself, and eating with me... It’s nothing if I haven’t experienced it before, but once I have such a Living habits, if you have to give up, it is like cutting flesh.His hair was matted and tangled, and it hadn't been combed in how long.Every morning when I open my eyes, I always look forward to a miracle. She will come back, that woman will come back, and comb my hair with gentle hands.

A little boy's voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, Liu Zhiyong is back."

King Qin hurried out, only to see Liu Zhiyong faltering.It was the expected result, but he was still uneasy. Liu Zhiyong saluted: "Your Majesty, this subordinate has neglected his duties. Madam refuses to come back. She said she is safe and told you not to go to her."

"Where has she gone now?"

"She attempted to assassinate Zhao Deji and went north."

Sure enough, this crazy woman went to assassinate Zhao Deji alone, this is doomed to fail, isn't it?But what did she go to the north for?Assassinate Jin Wushu?
"Madam told you never to look for her again."

"Get out, I know." He turned around and entered the room and closed the door with a "bang", and fell on the bed in a daze, gnashing his teeth: "Damn girl, do you think I will find you? Don't even think about it. In the future you Even if you figured it out and wanted to come back, and begged me on your knees, I wouldn't want you anymore."

Liu Zhiyong hurriedly walked to the ship, and Uncle Yang slowly came out from the shadows, with a look of relief on his old face, and said to the two minions: "Hurry up and prepare for the king's wedding, it must be lively, and everyone in the world will know it."

"Yes."

................................................

The morning sun shines through the birch bark mud wall, creating a dusty kaleidoscope.

Hua Rong slowly opened his eyes, watching the dust dance in that long circle of light.She pushed open the door, only to see that the washing water had already been placed at the door, and Zhahe was standing at the door, seeing her coming out, touched her hair in surprise: "Little brother, I prepared breakfast for you..."

She smiled and nodded, after a whole night of sound sleep, her spirit was more relaxed than ever.On the simple wooden table were a few dishes of game from the Liao Kingdom, and a large bowl of camel milk milk. Hua Rong was not too polite, and he ate and drank as soon as he sat down.Seeing Zhahe standing next to him, she asked him to eat together.

"Zhahe, will I delay your business?"

"No delay, no delay. There are only customers in the evening, and the business is very bad." There are only a few down-and-out veterans who come to patronize Zhahe's stall at night. Can it be temporarily closed?"

"Sure. Little brother, the shop doesn't have much money anyway, so I will help you whatever you want to do in Yanjing."

She said sincerely, "Thank you, Zhahe."

He rubbed his hands with joy.

Hua Rong looked around, seeing his dilapidated "house" like a kennel, a few messy furs, and some haystacks, it was really a barren house.She smiled slightly: "Zhahe, when this matter comes to an end, I will marry a virtuous woman for you to form a family..."

He touched his head in embarrassment, but he couldn't say anything. He was already dressed neatly, with a dagger and bow and arrows that were common to Jurchen men pinned to his waist. "Little brother, where are you going to kill your enemy? I'll help you." Hua Rong laughed, did he think he was going to kill someone now? "Zhahe, we don't need to kill people yet." "What are we doing now?" "Look at the customs of Liao Kingdom."

Zhahe was very surprised. Could it be that the little brother specially went to Yanjing to visit mountains and rivers?But he didn't ask too much, anyway, Hua Rong said what he said, and immediately prepared a horse to go out with Hua Rong.

sunset.

The green grassland is like a layer of light gold plated.The two rode across the prairie, making seven bends and eight turns through a pine forest, a stone forest, grasslands and shallow mountains.After going around like this for two days, there is an endless virgin jungle in front of us.Looking at the jungle, Zhahe's expression changed suddenly: "Brother, we are going in the wrong direction, change the direction."

Seeing the sudden change in his expression, Hua Rong said, "Zhahe, I think the forest scenery ahead is very nice, why don't we go and have a look?"

"I can't go. Little brother, that's the 'Forbidden Land of the Demon King'..." Zahe said these words, and his expression became even more ugly. The defeated Liao army broke in here, there were 800 people in that Liao army, and we had 1000 people. Everyone entered this jungle and never came out again..."

Hua Rong wondered: "Did they bury soldiers inside?"

Zhahe shook his head violently: "There is a demon king inside. He ate them all. None of the Liao people and Jin people survived. Their hearts and livers were all eaten, and their limbs were also eaten..." His voice trembled, " At that time, because my left leg was injured, I was left behind with seven or eight wounded people, and I couldn't rush in, so I was lucky enough to survive..."

Hua Rong recalled the act of gouging out the heart he had witnessed that day, and gradually got a sense in his mind. This place may be a mysterious stronghold used by Yelv Day, and those wild men probably obeyed him.As for cannibalism, many former primitive tribes have this custom.

Seeing that she didn't believe it at all, Zhahe was even more terrified: "Little brother, let's go, if we provoke the devil, we must die..."

She smiled slightly: "Zhahe, those are not demon kings, they are just savages."

"Savage?"

"Yes. I suspect that they all take orders from a fallen nobleman in Khitan."

Zhahe cried out in surprise: "How could it be? No matter if you are a Jin or Khitan, as long as you get close to this jungle, you must die. For so many years, we have never dared to come here, even Dajin's thousands of troops dare not come here .That is the Demon King, and Daikin's kidnapper is no match for him."

Hua Rong thought of Yelu Dayong's actions, and he was even more sure that these savages were related to him. He must have used the theory of witches and monsters to make people witness the scene of cannibalism and increase their fear. Since then, no one dared to approach this mysterious place .Zhahe saw that she had no fear on her face, and became even more flustered: "Little brother, you don't want to break in, do you? Going in is a dead end..."

She lowered her voice: "I have seen those savages with green feathers on their heads, they are definitely not demon kings."

Since we met, Zhahe had never disobeyed her in the slightest, but this time his attitude was very firm, he stopped in front of her horse, didn't dare to speak loudly, and just shook his head: "No, absolutely can't go."

Hua Rong didn't insist, and looked at the luxuriant jungle again, his heart suddenly moved: "Zhahe, can you speak the native language of the Khitan people?"

"I have been in Yanjing for more than ten years. I can speak more than a dozen kinds of Khitan dialects, and I can understand even very remote ones. I am more proficient than Jurchen."

Hua Rong was overjoyed, nodded and said, "Okay, then teach me Khitan dialect."

Seeing that she no longer forced her way into the dense forest, Zhahe heaved a sigh of relief.But I heard her say: "You come with me."

Zhahe raised his heart that had just been let go: "Where are we going?"

"Look at what these savages are doing."

Zahe was too shocked to speak to himself.

This is a mysterious valley, in which the pine wind blows, and there is a strange fragrance of flowers.A woman in black clothes and gauze knelt in front of the wooden door, kowtowing non-stop: "Yelu Guanyin pays homage to the prince..." There was no movement around.She continued to kowtow, for a while, there was a cool wind above her head, and a black shadow floated out from nowhere, and said gloomyly: "Yelu Guanyin, you are so bold, how dare you come here?"

Yelu Guanyin's voice was full of resentment: "My country was subjugated in Daliao, and tens of millions of people fell into the hands of golden men, living a life that was not as good as pigs and dogs. My father and brother were killed, and my son died because of a smallpox..."

"Your son died? When did it happen?"

"It's the plague this year."

"The plague happened in Shangjing, and your son is in Yanjing!"

"But he is still dead. God has no eyes, my family has lost its only sustenance, and now I have no one to rely on, doing the most despicable menial work in the Fourth Prince's Mansion..."

"what do you want?"

"I want to go back! Go back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion and be the mistress of the Fourth Prince's Mansion!"

Yeluda smiled strangely: "It's because you didn't live up to your expectations and couldn't seize the opportunity. Now, how can you go back?"

"So I need you to give me a medicine."

"What medicine?"

"Let the fourth prince charm me, make me a princess, and let me give birth to a son for the fourth prince."

"Yelv Guanyin, you are crazy."

As a high-ranking noble in the former Liao Kingdom, her family occupies an important position in the Yelu family.Yelu Dayong is the crown prince and her uncle of the same clan.

"I'm not crazy, prince, uncle, you are the only hope for my Daliao, the king of my Daliao, and my family is willing to be your right-hand man. Now that the fourth prince has power in the world, if you can help me ascend to the throne of the princess, I will give you my best." I must join hands with you to restore my great Liao country, and serve you all my life. My family has suffered enough from the destruction of the country, and no matter how painful it is, I will grit my teeth and persevere..."

Yelu Dayong fell into deep thought. Over the years, he has been pursuing the dream of restoring the country, and never refuses any opportunity for cooperation.It's not that Yelu Guanyin has never been considered before, but at the beginning Yelu Guanyin purely wanted to preserve the prosperity and wealth of the Fourth Prince's Mansion, and was unwilling to cooperate with him.Now that she has nowhere to go and her state of mind has changed greatly, it would be a good thing if she could help her become the princess of Yue and open the gap from the fourth prince.

"Okay, good. You get up."

Yelu Guanyin only felt a strong push, and stood up by herself.

"Yelv Guanyin, since you are planning to re-enter the Fourth Prince's Mansion, are you prepared?"

"Yes. The fourth prince is a fanatical fighter. What he loves most is galloping across the enemy's land, killing the men of the enemy, and plundering their wives, children, and treasures. Now that the Song and Jin peace talks, his temperament , it won't be boring."

"Okay, your task is to inquire about his peace war against Song, and it is best to provoke him to start the Song-Jin war again."

Yelu Guanyin nodded: "I understand."

Only the Song and Jin Dynasties fought endlessly, and the harder they fought, the better. In this way, in the troubled times, the Liao Kingdom had a real chance of revival.

"Women's revenge, you must remember one thing, don't touch the enemy's true feelings."
