Shen Yao slowly closed her eyes, recalling the night she married Uli when she was fifteen years old.
The marriage customs of the tribe are completely different from those in Chang'an. Their men marry their wives, drink by the bonfire, sing and dance, just like a grand dinner.
The moonlight shone over the vast land, and she was sent to the king's tent.
What was she thinking at that moment
Crying is unlucky, she didn't dare to cry, but her ears were full of that person talking to her.
"Of course you don't marry."
"What do I dare not swear, listen! If I, Sui Youan, bully you in the future, I will be lonely for the rest of my life..." When Sui Yu said this, Shen Yao covered his mouth.
"Yaoyao, in a few days, I will come to propose marriage."
Sui Yu, in a few days
At this moment, Uli pushed open the door and entered.
He wore a pointed hat, tied his chin with a ying, dressed in a dark red brocade robe with a sash around his waist, and walked towards her slowly with Liuhe boots.
Behind him are four entourages, all wearing flat-top fan-shaped caps, braids hanging back, large pleated clothes, and three small knives pinned to their waists. At the end, followed by a nodding interpreter.
Wu Li backed away his entourage, left the interpreter behind, and sat beside Shen Yao.
Wuli's mother is Han Fei Luo Jiana, who is also Baoyi Khan's favorite woman. A woman is favored not only because of her status, but also because of her outstanding appearance. Concubine Khan obviously occupies both.
Therefore, Uli is also more handsome than the prince next to him, with deep eyes and high eyebrows, and a sturdy body. Shen Yao sitting beside her was like a budding flower under a big tree.
Uli looked at the girl in front of him, at the delicate girl in front of him who seemed to be able to fly away when the wind blew, the perennial bloodthirsty heart, could not help softening a little, he raised his hand and touched her face, Seeing her trembling slightly, he smiled very happily.
Immediately, Shen Yao was hugged by him in his arms, and the big rough palms were lightly on her back. When the clothes were half undressed, the interpreter was still standing aside.
Language barrier, but this matter of men and women, do not need language, after grinding together, Wu Li held Shen Yao's head and placed it on his knees.
How could Shen Yao know what he meant at that time, until the man brought the horror closer to her... She screamed in fright, grabbed the hand of the female interpreter, and asked: What is he doing?
Uli frowned, looked at the interpreter in confusion, and then smiled and whispered a few words.
Tong Yi's face was flushed, and he bravely conveyed this to Shen Yao.
Your Highness, the prince asks you if you would like to serve him like this.
Of course she didn't want to.
On the night of the wedding, she rebelled against Uli and tried her best to break free from his shackles. But she was afraid of angering the second Uyghur prince. After calming down, she covered her face and sobbed: "I won't, I don't dare, I'm afraid, I don't like standing next to others."
Uli thought of her from Zhongyuan, and pity her for her young age, so he patted her on the shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid."
Seeing her trembling so much, Uli drove the translator out too. In the dark night, two people, pitch-black, Uli took her body in the most gentle way.
Afterwards, the man bit her ear again, as if angry, she couldn't understand what he said.
Although the women on the grasslands are enthusiastic and unrestrained, and their bodies are agile, when it comes to this face, naturally, it cannot be compared with Shen Yao, who has delicate facial features and a soft mood. Because it is rare, it is extremely precious.
What's more, Uli fell in love with her at first sight.
After that night, Uli loved her more and more. Not only did he set up another stove for her, but he also reused the cook she brought from the Central Plains, often accompanied her to dinner, and also learned Chinese for her.
If that incident hadn't happened, Shen Yao would probably have lived like this forever, just like a fish can't live without water, she can't live without her husband Uli.
The peaceful days have lasted for about a year. One morning, Wuli suddenly rushed into the tent, dragged Shen Yao off the couch, glared at her, and said coldly, "Who is Suiyu?"
Shen Yao sucked in a breath of cold air and clenched her fists, not daring to answer lightly.
Uli continued: "Is the Youan embroidered on your veil his name? Do you adore him?"
Shen Yao forced herself to calm down.
That handkerchief was her only thought, but she hid it early in the morning and never took it out. If he knew so much, he must have heard of it.
She retorted at this moment, it was deception. Can admit... how can she admit that she has another man in her heart in front of her husband
With a rebellious man like Uli, will he let him go
Obviously not.
Uli picked up the front of her dress with one hand, with an indifferent expression, Shen Yao was about to grab her throat when she saw the rough palm.
Shen Yao had never seen this man get angry, and her eyes instantly turned red with fright.
After staring at each other for a long time, Uli put her down and walked out of the tent. She breathed a sigh of relief and fell to the ground.
After Uli left, she began to find out who had spread the word. The maid beside her told her that the female interpreter had gone to Uli's camp this morning.
Shen Yao fell down on the couch and took a deep breath, realizing her realization.
The interpreter was found for her by her friend Xu Sanniang. Knowing that she was going to marry far away, Xu Sanniang immediately sent the interpreter to Hou's mansion.
I remember Xu Sanniang saying: "Yaoyao, most of the interpreters in Honglu Temple are men. It's very inconvenient to be with you, so I decided to find a female interpreter for you, and the journey is safe."
When she heard this, she didn't know how grateful she was.
Xu Sanniang knew everything about her and Suiyu.
Don't say it early, don't say it late, but chose to stab her when Uli was the best for her. Obviously, this was planned in advance.
After this, Uli didn't see her for a long time, not once. Without Uli's love, Uli's concubines were the first to change their faces. One of them was named Leiman. At a hunting banquet, she drew a bow and used a sharp arrow to touch her forehead.
She was laughing, and the other concubines were laughing too.
Shen Yao didn't understand, but she knew what they were laughing at.
They were laughing at a fake princess who lost her husband's favor and had nothing to say, not even a word.
They asked her with their eyes, Your Royal Highness Princess of Jin, do you want to go back to the Central Plains
The sharp iron pressed against her forehead, Shen Yao felt anxious in her heart, but her eyes did not evade.
She guessed that her stubborn appearance must be extremely ridiculous in the eyes of the man surrounded by concubines.
In the end, it was Concubine Khan who rescued her.
Whether it is a real princess or a fake princess, it is the princess who is close to her, her life is in it.
That night, Ulito drank a lot of wine, walked into her tent, pinched her chin roughly, and asked her in authentic Mandarin, "Am I being bad to you? Why are you half-hearted."
"I accompany you to eat every day."
"I learned Chinese for you."
"I left others out for you."
"Yonghe, how about you?"
He left these few words on the basis of alcoholism, and before she could answer, he turned and left.
Shen Yao couldn't describe in words the growth that that night brought her. Under the most difficult circumstances, she didn't think about the illusory love, let alone the humiliation his concubines brought her.
She opened the veil to look at the Uighur moon, and pondered what Uri had said.
again and again…
She suddenly woke up.
A man like Uli, he only remembers what he paid for, and he doesn't remember how much she has done for him.
His anger came from the fact that his efforts were not rewarded in return, and his unwillingness was also here.
If Shen Yao chased him out and learned from his concubines who bent down to please him and please him, maybe she would be replaced by the next woman soon. she guessed.
So, after several days passed, Shen Yao still didn't move, Uli gave her a step, but she still didn't go down.
But this is someone else's territory, and you have to weigh your own identity when putting on airs.
During this period, Shen Yao only did one thing - learn Uyghur language.
She would never let herself fall into such an embarrassing situation again. Next time, Laiman or the vines, one by one, don't even think about saying something she doesn't understand in front of her.
The news soon reached Uli's ears.
At night, Uli leaned against her and asked, "You know what's wrong?"
Shen Yao was gambling, as if she was going out of her way, she said in Wuli's ear: "You fell in love with me, and then opened your mouth to tell me that Your Majesty wanted me. Before that, did you ask me if there was anyone else in my heart? I left my homeland and left. My family is here with you, what's wrong with me?"
Uli's eyes were angry, and he pinched her waist tightly, annoyed that she would not obey the discipline, but he couldn't say anything to refute.
Shen Yao continued: "You neglected me and condoned your concubines to humiliate me, but... But Uli, I can't go back to Chang'an, I can't go back again, I just want to be your wife well."
"That's all in the past... What's wrong with me?"
Uli's face was tense, the force of the impact was getting lighter and lighter, and the man's heart was completely softened at the moment when he closed his eyes and groaned. He raised his hand to wipe her tears, and said word by word, "No one can bully you in the future."
This prairie man has a great advantage, he does what he says.
For the next three years, Wuli taught her to hunt and teach her to ride. Everything she knew was taught to her by Wuli. Shen Yao was self-willed and asked him to teach her by himself. Wuli was willing to coax her, so he obeyed her. meaning.
Except for the cheeks that are not red in the wind, she is more and more like a woman who was born in the grassland and grew up in the grassland.
Uli poured more and more feelings into her, he no longer called her Yonghe, he called her rumors.
rumors.
rumors.
For four years, more than a thousand days and nights, Shen Yao would forget that in that distant dream, there was also a person who called her like this.
The next morning, Shen Yao woke up in the Shen mansion, she watched Shen Zhen lift up Shen Hong and covered her ears, saw the smile on the corner of her mouth, and called back to her, "Yao Yao, I bought you a chestnut cake, come here quickly. ."
Shen Yao responded and rolled over to the ground.
She is not greedy, it is enough to come back once.
Four days later, in the nineteenth year of Yuanqing, the first day of the first lunar month.
Uli came to take her into the palace for a state banquet.
She looked at the towering palace gate and smiled.
Empress Xu, Xu Sanniang, is everything going well
—
The people of Honglu Temple brought envoys from all over the world into the palace, the wind was cold, and Lu Yan was patrolling outside the door.
The majestic palace gate opened like a nine-layered heaven gate, and the envoys of various countries dressed in Chinese costumes and held a dazzling array of tributes outside the hall.
Everything outside the hall was the same as in his dream.
Only the interior has changed.
The lanterns in the center of the hall are dazzling, as bright as day, with delicious delicacies and beauties like clouds.
Emperor Cheng Yuan, who was sitting beside Xu Hou, had clear eyes and a majestic appearance.
The prince sat beside him.
The eunuch at the door shouted: "The envoys enter the hall—"
