Looking back

Chapter 93 On the Dying

Although the two are full of longing, the fief is not something that can be obtained in a short time. The two still need to stay in Aolun Sumu for a long time. Yang Kang has to entrust the goods of the Escort and arrange the people, and Huazheng still has many things to do. I want to ask Ala Hai for help, to receive the reward from the great Khan at this time—her third brother Wo Kuotai, for destroying the faction of the old people in the mountains, and to prepare for the marriage. The rest is cumbersome.Although there was not much free time during this period, when they got together, the two of them still discussed many future ideas with great interest, who can adopt them, and what policies might work. They also recalled and analyzed many ideas of traveling through powerful countries one by one, and compared them with history. By analogy, the two sometimes learn from each other's strengths to make up for their weaknesses, and sometimes confront each other. The discussion was full of enthusiasm and hearty, and the time passed quickly unconsciously.

At the end Huazheng smiled proudly, "After talking for a long time, I still plan to do more things." Yang Kang laughed and said, "So what, little dreamer? At least you can do more than me in weapon manufacturing." Huazheng curled her lips, "I know the formula of gunpowder." She was very confident in what she said. She had seen several firearms improved by Yang Kang. There are also a minority among them, and it would be futile for her to try to be strong in this regard.

Yang Kang continued, "You want me to lead the training." Huazheng also continued to give him a blank look, "I know who is the barbarian!" After she finished speaking, she suddenly sighed, "It's a pity that the Jin Dynasty is here. If they didn't squeeze out your father and son, they wouldn't be allowed to join the army..." Yang Kang interrupted her, "It's no surprise that the ancient dynasty spends all its nourishment on maintaining its rule. The heir to the throne is more of a life-and-death battle, and in the past ten years, the direct line of the royal family has lost countless lives in battles."

Huazheng stared blankly at the scene outside the window, separated by the flowers and trees in the courtyard and the low courtyard wall, the bustling atmosphere of the street still couldn't be concealed.Aolun Sumu City has its own luck. It and the people of Wanggu tribe are the undoubted winners in this great change of the century. At the same time, there are more city-states that are not as lucky as it, such as the neighboring Xixia.Yang Kang pulled her back from the fugue, "What are you thinking, why are you becoming so sentimental? It's too late to change the melancholy route at this time."

Huazheng came back to his senses, "I was thinking, which ones can be changed, which ones are inevitable, which ones can be achieved, and which ones are a mantis' arm. If I hadn't talked about practicing martial arts, maybe I would have been on a different path. I succeeded, and I tried my best to collect the secrets everywhere, but in the end I couldn’t practice all of them, and it took me more than ten years to draw water from the bamboo basket in vain.”

Yang Kang asked with a smile, "Does it feel like a game? It took a long time to level up, and finally found out that I added the wrong skill points?" It took a lot of time, and I can't do this in the future. Stop, stop, stop, don't tell me the truth that if you have experienced it, you won't waste it. I understand it all, and I just feel like it."

She smiled slightly, "In fact, I feel that I have never been so happy as I am now. After deciding what to do in the future, I feel that the world is bright, not to mention, you are willing to accompany me to risk the world's disgrace."

"That's the biggest problem in the world, you dare, why don't I? Don't always put me in the position of sacrifice and dedication?" Huazheng spread his hands and expressed helplessness, "Okay, okay, let's count you as the boss It's cheaper! By the way, don't you want to go to your escort agency to explain things?"

"Yes, do you want to go together?" Huazheng shook his head, "I'll go to Third Sister and ask about the preparations for the ceremony." The two looked at each other and smiled, even though they complained about how cumbersome and redundant these formal things were. , It also has its own joys in preparation.

Yang Kang came to the Escort alone. These days, the Escorts who came back from the long journey in Persia are all on vacation, and it was the first time they gathered together today.During the few years when Huazheng hadn't heard from him, these people were the ones who accompanied him the longest. During the few years, they were regarded as his half disciples.Since the Escort Bureau is located in Aolun Sumu, it manages up and down, looking for business, and the news network is naturally well-informed. The fact that his identity is about to change, Yang Kang has not confessed himself, everyone already knows.The bodyguards who grew up in the north not only had no objection to this matter, but also felt elated. The land where they grew up changed owners several times, and intermarriage between different races was common, while those who grew up in the Southern Song Dynasty had different views. It's okay to do business, but I always regard intermarriage with barbarians as unethical in my heart, not to mention that this marriage always looks like a dragon and a phoenix.

In any case, the Chief Escort, who has been alone for many years, is finally approaching a good thing. Whether it is true or not, everyone must congratulate first.After Yang Kang thanked, he looked at the faces of the people with different thoughts, some of them were ecstatic, as if they were in front of their eyes, while others were indifferent, Yang Kang sighed in his heart, and solemnly talked about the business.

Before he left this time, he completely offended everyone in the Southern Song Dynasty. The Escort Bureau had already been looked down upon in Xiangyang before. If the news of his marriage with Huazheng spread, there would be no place for him in Xiangyang.As soon as these words came out, those few people stood up with worried faces, "Our family is all in Xiangyang, especially the old man is not in good health, and he has moved back to his hometown. What does the head of the security guard think?" Another person asked He said, "Guo Daxia and Huang Gangzhu, do you really want to part ways?"

Yang Kang nodded and said, "It's not just Guo Daxia and Huang Gangzhu, but almost everyone in the Southern Song Dynasty martial arts. I want to part ways. I called everyone today to tell you that the situation will change in the future, and everyone has the right to choose to retreat at this time." Get out and go back to my hometown, so as not to cause conflicts in the future. The plaque in Xiangyang has since been removed, and the case has also been canceled by the government. It has nothing to do with me since then. The house and utensils are all handed over. For those who want to continue to run darts on their own or use them for other purposes, I believe Guo Daxia and Huang Gangzhu will not make things difficult for you."

He didn't focus on Xiangyang in the first place, so it's not a pity to give up this time. Besides, not many people leave, and those who stay are those who will always follow faithfully.After arranging all kinds of trivial matters, and saying goodbye to those returning home one by one, it was already noon on the second day if I had free time.Unexpectedly, at this time, someone suddenly came to inform him to pack his bags and go to the palace immediately.

Yang Kang has always prepared simple luggage for traveling lightly, so he didn't need to make any extra preparations. When he arrived at the palace of Alahai, he saw it was in a hurry, messengers shuttled everywhere, and dozens of grooms were leading horses galloping. And orderly, it seems that they are preparing for the guard of honor to travel.

After a while, Huazheng and Alahai sisters both changed into their riding clothes and hurried down the steps in front of the hall. When they saw Yang Kang, Huazheng said loudly, "Hurry up, let's set off for Helin! My ah Mom is sick!"

The situation was urgent, no one said much, and even the carriage was disliked for being slow, so they abandoned it.Everyone set off on horseback in light clothes. The two princesses have been pampered for many years, and their riding skills are not unfamiliar. After a few sips of milk wine, the rest of the people naturally followed suit. After dark, they lit torches and walked in the dark, and arrived at Hara and Lin before midnight.

The tent of Queen Puertie, Genghis Khan's first wife, was brightly lit. After dismounting from their horses, Huazheng and Alahai stumbled towards it, followed by Yang Kang, and the rest stayed outside the tent.After entering, the two flung themselves in front of the bed, surrounded by many people, only faint cries could be heard.

Puertie married Temujin when they were teenagers, and she was one year older than Temujin. Now that she has a lot of children and grandchildren, she is considered a long-lived in this age, and all the hardships and hardships she suffered when she was young are finally reflected in her old body. It was fully revealed that falling down from this disease was like a mountain crumbling.After a long time, Huazheng got up from the collapse and returned to the desk, ready to write the prescription.

Hua Zheng didn't know how to write with a brush in the first place, but now his hands were trembling so much that he could hardly hold the pen. In the end, he dictated the prescription, and Yang Kang wrote it down and handed it to the medical officer.After feeding a dose of decoction, Pu Ertie finally opened his eyes, seemed to be in better spirits, and stretched out an old and withered hand to the children around him.

Among her four sons and five daughters, only Wokuotai, Alahai, and Huazheng rushed here, and the rest were surrounded by other concubine children, and Some grandchildren.She looked around with her cloudy old eyes, and said to Wo Kuotai, "Where's your brother?"

Wo Kuotai held his mother's hand and said, "The messenger has ridden the fastest horse to their kingdom."

Pu Ertie smiled reluctantly, "No need, it's too late." Wo Kuotai said, "Don't worry, Mama, Huazheng is here, and she will cure you." Pu Ertie moved, as if thinking Shaking her head, "My good boy, I know, if you get sick, you won't die." She stretched out her hand and motioned for others to help her up, so that Wo Kuotai sitting by the couch was lower than her line of sight , she looked down at him, "My son, do you remember the story Grandma Hoelun once told your father Khan and his brothers?"

Wo Kuotai nodded, "I remember that Father Khan tied up Khasar and questioned him. Grandma Hoelun taught him to love his brothers like his own fingers. Only when the fingers are healthy and united can we clenched our fists and Draw a bow and shoot an arrow."

"My son, my mother wants you to remember the teachings of your grandmother, remember my teachings, obey the instructions of your father Khan, discipline yourself, cherish loyal warriors and virtuous people, and love your brothers and sisters. You can do it Is it?"

Wo Kuotai nodded in response, and Puertie said to Alahai again, "Among all my children, you are the best, and you are the one who suffers the most." Alahai unloaded her in front of her people. She was firm and graceful, she burst into tears, and leaned her head in the arms of her grandmother. Among the brothers and sisters of the same mother, she was the only one who suffered three times of bereavement, and all the children she gave birth died young. He stroked Alahai's hair with all his strength, "But you are the one who makes me feel at ease the most, my good boy, you can take good care of your home and your country, and you will never disappoint grandma and papa."

"Huazheng, I'm sorry, grandma can't marry you off." Huazheng listened with red eyes all the time, and tears welled up after hearing this. She wiped away the tears fiercely and said, "Grandma Don't lie to me, you can definitely come."

Puertie sighed inaudibly, and murmured two syllables over and over in his mouth. Yang Kang didn't quite understand it, but he only knew that it was a Mongolian word for the youngest child in the family, full of intimacy, love and affection. Yi, "You are the one I worry about the most."

After calling several times in a low voice, she asked again, "Where's Guliejian?"

Yang Kang understood that he was calling him, so he went forward, only to hear Pu Ertie say, "She is the little daughter I love and worry about the most, and I will hand her over to you. She is the smartest and well-behaved girl since she was a child, but She is also the most stubborn, please take good care of her..."

"Mongolians don't need to observe filial piety. After the funeral, you should get married as soon as possible, don't delay any longer."
