Thousand Miles of Bright Moonlight

Chapter 77: Take off the mask

Views:

In the carriage, Yaoying was awakened by the voice of her personal soldiers, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.

"General Su wants to see me?"

She sat up, raised her hand and brushed the stray hair on the side of her temples, woke up from a light sleep, her cheeks were reddish, the color of the dizzy flowers painted with peach rouge on the brows became lighter, and it became more gorgeous, like a flower that was about to bloom. The flower buds, tremblingly open the petals, revealing the fresh tender stamens.

The courtyard lit up, and the flickering candle flames loomed over her face, and it was heart-wrenching to see the beauty under the lamp.

Yuanjue's heart trembled suddenly, and he felt that the regent should not let the regent see the current princess, but he quickly put down the footstool, and secretly rejoiced in his heart that it was fortunate that the princess had changed into the graceful flower hairpin dress.

Yaoying got off the carriage, walked across the courtyard, and stepped on the stone steps, her footsteps wobbly.

Yuanjue thought about it, raised her heels, and followed her step by step.

A fire was burning in the hall, the snow was flying outside the house, and a room in the house was cracking softly.

Yaoying walked in, "General Su."

Sultan didn't look back, he pointed to a letter, wearing the pair of black animal leather gloves on his hands.

Yaoying brushed the snow off her shoulders, walked over to him, sat cross-legged, picked up the letter and looked at it carefully, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.

"We can go see Yuchi Damo."

She threw the letter into the stove and said softly, her voice hoarse.

Sultan Gu looked at the blue flames rising from the furnace, and said calmly: "Haidu Aling has come to Gaochang. Today the goshawk found his white falcon on the Dahaidao."

Yaoying's heartbeat quickened a bit, and her brows frowned.

Haidu Aling is here, she has to finish the affairs here as soon as possible and return to the royal court as soon as possible to avoid hitting Haidu Aling.

"Yang Qian told me that Mrs. Yina holds a banquet in the palace every day, and he can bring us into the banquet... There are so many dreams in the night, we will go to see Yuchi Damo tomorrow."

Yaoying looked at Sultan Gu.

Sultan was wearing a mask, the firelight reflected on the ghost face with green face and fangs, and two clusters of light flashed in the blue eyes under the mask.

When he didn't speak, he was cold and sullen, and it was really scary.

But this person would sit on the bedside and read scriptures for her when she was feeling down.

He said that Haidu Aling was here, and her first reaction was panic, but his tone was so plain, so plain that it dispelled her anxiety, and she felt less nervous when he thought of him protecting her by his side.

Yaoying asked softly, "What does the general think?"

Sultan's ancient martial arts are strong, even if Mrs. Yina's personal soldiers are heavily guarded, he can enter and leave the palace at will.

When she was in the Buddhist temple, the little novice told her that there was a tribe that attacked Wang Ting from behind while the Northern Rong army was pressing down on the border. All the way straight in, the people along the way took their families and escaped back to the holy city. Other small tribes that coveted the wealth of the royal court also wanted to take advantage of the robbery. Seeing that someone had tasted the sweetness, they were eager to lead their troops to attack the royal court.

When the battle report arrived at Tanmaraka's desk, the people in the court were panicked. Tanmaraga was in danger, and only one person was dispatched to solve a crisis.

That man was Sultangu.

He didn't bring any of his personal soldiers, and he entered the enemy camp alone, wearing a black robe and a long sword, beheading the leader of the opponent in the army, and then retreating.

The leader's son succeeded the chief and did not retreat. The next night, Sultan Gu appeared again in the tribal tent and cut off the head of the new chief.

Kill one person overnight, only the leader.

Ten days passed, and ten leaders fell to the ground.

Sultan Gu is like the legendary ghost Shura, even if he is guarding a strong camp like an impregnable wall, he can come and go freely, as if entering a land of no one. All the tribes that besieged the royal court were terrified, and without waiting for dawn, they immediately pulled out their camps, turned around and fled back to the tribe, lest they would become the souls of the sultan's ancient sword.

Obviously, Sultan Gu wanted to see Yuchi Damo and could go to the palace to see him at any time.

Yaoying suspected that Sultan had secretly met with Yuchi Bodhidharma, and they stayed in Gaochang only because she had not met Yuchi Bodhidharma.

She had to meet with Yuchi Dharma as soon as possible, so as not to delay too long and miss Sultangu's affairs. Although he is usually elusive, and Wang Ting seems to be no different when he is away from him, he must not be away for too long.

Others can't see it, she understands what he means to Wang Ting.

Tamara is a god that people are willing to follow. It is noble, holy, does not cause dust, and is admired by all people. Sultan Gu, who silently carried all the murders, was feared, hated, and hated by others.

The angry eyes of the King Kong and the lowered eyebrows of the Bodhisattva are all just to calm down the troubled world.

Yaoying added in a low voice, "Yang Qian's father is Yuchi Damo's teacher. He has often entered the palace since he was a child. With him around, nothing will happen."

Sultan Gu looked at the charcoal fire and said, "I will escort the princess into the palace tomorrow."

Yaoying nodded, of course he was more secure with her than others.

She waited for a while, and seeing that he didn't speak again, she guessed that he was waiting for her just to talk about Haidu Aling. She got up and said, "It's cold in the middle of the night, so General Su will settle down earlier."

Sultangu's body, which seemed to have frozen, moved, his chin lifted, and his eyes fell on her face.

Yuanjue, who was standing in the corner, couldn't help widening his eyes and holding his breath.

Yaoying stopped in her footsteps, facing Sultan Gu's eyes that were so cold that there was no fireworks, her eyes widened and she made a puzzled expression. The makeup of the age is dripping, the leaves are full of fresh dew, the flowers are fragrant, and the bright and beautiful are not square.

"General?"

Sultan Gu withdrew his gaze, motioned Yaoying to sit back, and took off the animal skin gloves on his hands, revealing thin, strong fingers with well-defined joints.

Yaoying suddenly realized, she bent down and sat down, lowered her head and rolled up her sleeves. Under the firelight, her white wrist stretched out in front of Sultan Gu and looked at him eagerly.

If she was in front of other men, she would not stretch out her arms so generously. Sultan was different from others. The several trials on the way to Gaochang made her understand that there might be no difference between men and women in his eyes. She was in front of him. Just a patient, naturally there is no need to be coy.

And he has to check her pulse every night these days, she's used to it.

Sultan Gu put two fingers on Yaoying's wrist, didn't speak for a long time, and frowned slightly under the mask.

Yaoying was exhausted after a long day of exhaustion. She sat by the fire and was roasting. Her bones were soft, her cheeks were hot from the heat, and her eyelids were getting heavier. I dozed off, I don't know how long it took, suddenly a jolt, suddenly woke up, saw the grimace mask close at hand, and stayed for a while.

She subconsciously stretched out her left hand and touched the mask with her fingers, which was cold.

Sultan didn't move, the blue eyes under the mask lifted up and looked at Yaoying.

The two were very close, and their eyes met.

There was doubt in Sultangu's eyes.

Yaoying looked up at him from the bottom up, her eyes were wet, her eyes were blurred, her eyes were blurry, her brows were dazzling and enchanting, as if there were bursts of fragrance escaping.

The room was quiet, the needles could be heard falling, and the atmosphere was strange.

Sultan Guxian averted his eyes.

Yaoying came back to her senses and found that her fingers were on Sultangu's face, and she was still holding his mask. She suddenly stiffened her hands and feet and didn't dare to move, and her face became even hotter.

Yuanjue stood in the corner, staring at Yaoying's unbridled hand, her face twitched, her eyes almost popping out.

The princess actually did it!

Yao Ying kept raising her hand, she didn't dare to move, her eyes swayed around, and she was completely awake. Out of the corner of the eye, she caught Yuanjue's terrified and condemning eyes, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, feeling embarrassed all over her body. sweat.

Sultan was silent.

Why not reprimand her for being rude

Yaoying's hands were sore. Seeing that Sultan had no intention of opening her mouth, her heart swayed, and she simply continued to lean forward. She touched the edge of the mask with her fingers, and took off the mask with slight force.

"It's all my own, the general doesn't have to wear a mask all the time."

The mask was lifted, and Sultangu's face was revealed.

Yuanjue was stunned, his jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Yaoying holds the mask tightly in her hands, her face is confident, but her hands and feet are actually stiff and her heart is beating like a drum.

Sultan Gu lowered her eyes and said nothing, letting her take off her mask and continue to check her pulse.

Like an elder who indulges a child's mischief.

Yaoying looked up at his face.

His expression was calm, and under the light of the fire, his face covered with ferocious scars looked a little soft.

Yaoying breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the grimace mask, thinking that his face was much prettier than the grimace mask.

Sultan Gu retracted two fingers and motioned Yaoying to change one hand. Both hands took the pulse, frowned, and said, "Princess is a little feverish. I will take two more medicines tomorrow."

A look of distress appeared on Yaoying's face.

When she sent Yang Qian away, she felt hot on her body, thought she was tired, and didn't care. Later, she couldn't hold back and fell asleep. When she woke up, she felt better, but she was a little dizzy when she got off the carriage, thinking about tonight. It would be good to have a good night's sleep, but I didn't expect that this discomfort was discovered by Sultan Gu.

Sultan Gu got up and said, "Since the princess is unwell, it is not advisable to go out tomorrow, and enter the palace the day after tomorrow."

Yaoying got up and heard the words, and quickly shook her head: "No, I must take my medicine and go to the palace tomorrow."

Sultan Gu glanced at her and said lightly: "The princess is born with insufficiency, and she must be diligently maintained the day after tomorrow. It is taboo to avoid medical treatment, and it may become a serious disease."

Yaoying acted like she was obediently listening to the instructions, and after he finished speaking, she smiled and said, "What the general said is, but I have an old problem. Get a good night's sleep tonight, I will be fine tomorrow morning, the general will see you again tomorrow morning. Check the pulse for me, if I am well, we will enter the palace today?"

She asked for his opinion, her eyes were fixed on him, her voice was hoarse, her tone was soft and reverent, and it sounded a bit like she was coquettish.

Sultan Gu raised his head, looked at the falling snow outside the courtyard, nodded, and glanced at Yuanjue in the corner.

Yuanjue understood, bowed his head, walked up to Yaoying, and said, "Princess, it's late at night, my subordinates will take you back to the room."

Yaoying turned around and walked out of the hall, and just after returning to the house to rest, her personal soldiers sent a bowl of the freshly fried medicine, and said, "The regent said that the princess should take the medicine before going to bed."

She was stunned for a moment, thanked her personal soldiers, drank the medicine and fell asleep, lying on the pillow, thinking with her eyes closed.

Sultan understands medical theory in ancient times. Who did he learn his medical skills from? Ashina Bisuo and he are from the same school, why haven't they studied medicine

Yaoying became more and more certain that Sultan Gu must have taken care of someone who had been ill for a long time, and that that person, like her, needed to take long-term medication, so he knew so much about loose medicine.

In her impression, it seems that only Tamara is taking medicine in the palace...

Yao Ying was really tired, and before she could sort out her thoughts, she had already fallen into sleep.
