[The Legend of Mulan] Daughter Love

After the Rouran army had assembled in the royal court, it was only waiting for Da Tan Khan to appoint a general before he could send his army to invade the south.Duo Lun, the second prince of Rouran, who was about to accept the commander-in-chief, left the royal court at this time and went all the way south across the border of Wei State to Wufeng Valley.Duo Lun's original intention was to take his loved one away, but the world is unpredictable, and many things can't be done by his wishful thinking, just like the imperial edict back then.

The peaceful and prosperous Wufeng Valley is no longer what it used to be. Rouran went to war with the State of Wei. The Emperor of Wei ordered conscription, and more than half of the males here have been conscripted to go to the front line.Wufeng Valley is famous for its weaving and embroidery, and the war was about to break out. Rouran cut off the Silk Road, border trade stopped, and no merchants came to buy silk.There were no people on the street, giving people a sense of depression. Duo Lun rode into the city, feeling a little uneasy.

He went straight to Huaerjin, but he didn't see Mulan, who he was thinking about. He could only blame and reprimand, because as the prince of Rouran, he failed to fulfill his promise. He could neither stop the war nor bring peace.Hua Mulan disappeared, and the despair and pain in the eyes of Hua Hu and Jia Jun deeply hurt Duo Lun. They had regarded him as an enemy and refused to say anything. At this moment, he felt helpless and sad.

Duo Lun went around the city but did not find Mulan. He went to Huanhuayuan to look for Zisu.He thought of Zhiqing again, so he immediately rode out of the west city, and was about to go to Luoshen Manor, but he met Babeican on foot near the horse farm in the outskirts.

Confused, he jumped off his horse and ran over, anxiously asking: "Grandpa Eight, why are you here alone, where is Zhiqing?" When he was still in Wufeng Valley, whenever Grandpa Eight went out, Zhiqing would always follow him.

Babeican raised his dull eyes and looked at Duo Lun, the lines at the corners of his eyes were much darker than before.He shook his head sadly, and said in a whisper: "Qing'er is gone, General Xie has not found her so far, I wonder if my old bone can wait..."

"Grandpa Eight, what are you talking about? Zhiqing is gone! Then...Mulan is also missing?" Duo Lun eagerly grabbed Babeican's arm, "Did something happen to them? Tell me, Grandpa Eight!"

"The smoke is everywhere, and the mulberry and hemp are all withered..." Ba Beican sighed sadly, "Don't look for Mulan anymore, she won't come back again."

"What about Zhiqing, is she with Mulan? Where did they go?"

"Qing'er, where is she? She was taken away... As for Mulan..." Babeican sighed, turned around and walked away with unsteady steps, "Maybe in the flames of war, swords, and iron hooves." ..."

Wufeng Valley and even the border towns of Wei State are shrouded in the cloud of war, and people are panic everywhere. Duo Lun has nothing to gain and it is meaningless to linger any longer. Perhaps, as Zisu said, Mulan may have gone to the border to find him. .As long as he thought of the danger that Mulan, a woman, might encounter, Duo Lun felt very worried. He didn't dare to stay any longer, and went all the way north to the border.

Rouran, who is thousands of miles away, Zhiqing's mood has calmed down in the past few days. She is a smart person and knows that depression and tears can't help herself.Perhaps she was also hoping that someone would come to rescue her, but the battle was imminent, and she knew that Xie Qichen, who was far away in the army of Wei State, must be actively preparing for the battle, and was unable to come to the royal court in the hinterland of Rouran.That being the case, she can only save herself.

Fuling, as the princess of Xihai, is under house arrest in Xingyuan, a post station. It took a lot of effort for Wuluohou to let them meet.From the ambush on the marriage road to the current house arrest, Fu Ling has also suffered a lot, especially Duo Lun did not marry her, which made her position in Rouran very embarrassing, and if a war broke out, her life might be in danger.When Zhiqing and Fuling met each other, apart from crying, they could only comfort each other with words.In this situation, even if Zhiqing wants to leave, she must not leave Fu Ling alone, so she must have a perfect plan to escape.

Now the battle situation is chaotic, Rouran has already had vanguard troops to disturb the front line, if a war starts, even if they leave the royal court, it will be difficult to safely cross the grassland and return to Wei.The best way is to take advantage of the chaos and escape from the royal court as soon as possible. As long as they reach the border of Wei State before the war starts, Rouran's pursuers will be blocked from Wei State's blockade when the war starts.

Zhiqing walked out of the tent, looked up at the blue sky, and couldn't help but sighed.Although she has cleared her mind now, it is not easy to escape from Rouran Royal Court.Duo Lun, who can only rely on her, is not around now, and Zhiqing told Fu Ling that once she sees Duo Lun, she must tell him about her situation.But just pinning her hopes on Duo Lun, Zhiqing was not at ease.

As he himself said, Wu Ti will treat Zhiqing well, bring her all the good things these days, and send a lot of maids to serve her.For such an honor, Zhiqing was not happy, and followed a lot of maids all day long, didn't she have several pairs of eyes staring at her.So, she found an excuse to lose her temper with Wu Ti and drove all the maids away, but this time she was careful not to make Wu Ti run away in anger.She understands him, and some things will bring her benefits if she follows him. Just like now, she can already leave the tent and move around in the prince's camp.

Zhiqing walked around in the courtyard, followed by Wu Luohou and several guards.She turned around and glanced at Wu Luohou, and asked, "Duo Lun hasn't returned to the royal court yet, what has Wu Ti been up to lately?"

"The Great Khan has always preferred His Highness Duo Lun to take the position of General and lead the army, but he has not returned yet. The important ministers headed by the prime minister are trying their best to recommend His Highness Wu Ti to be the General. These days, Your Highness is not going to train soldiers Ma is discussing important matters with the prime minister."

"Prime Minister?" Zhi Qing frowned, "Wuluohou, do you think Prime Minister is really helping Wu Ti?"

"Li Duo!" Wu Luohou looked around carefully, "It's better not to say these things, the prime minister is not something we can criticize." It seems that the prime minister Jin Canzi's position in Rouran is indeed detached, and he is deeply trusted by Da Tan Khan Zhiqing looked at Wu Luohou's nervous expression and didn't say any more.Seeing that she didn't speak, Wu Luohou thought he had offended her, so he said, "Maybe it was a misunderstanding, the prime minister has always treated His Highness well, I think..."

Before Wu Luohou finished speaking, there was a loud noise behind them, and they were getting closer.

"Wu Tiren, let him come out for me! Khan has already said that he wants Duo Lun to be the general, so why should he grab it!"

At the sound, Zhiqing turned around with a headache, and saw He Hong rushing in regardless of the guard's obstruction.Anyway, Wu Ti had always been patient with He Hong, so his guards naturally didn't dare to do anything to him.Seeing that the situation was not good, Wu Luohou rushed to meet him.

"Miss He Hong, His Highness Wu Ti is not here, you should come back another day."

"Not here?" He Hong arrogantly pointed at Wu Luohou with a whip, "Stop coaxing me with words, what can he do, let him come out quickly!"

Naturally, Wu Luohou didn't dare to neglect her, so he could only salute and said: "His Highness is really not here, I'm afraid he is still practicing in the school ground."

"Hmph! He hasn't become a general yet, so he's just so active. When Duo Lun comes back, the position of the general will still be his!" He Hong snorted angrily, and turned to leave, but the corners of her eyes swept behind her. A standing woman saw that she didn't look like a maid, so she strode over. "You, turn me around!"

Zhiqing had been standing with her back behind the guards, thinking that she would be able to avoid He Hong by doing so, but now when she heard a high-spirited voice behind her, she had no choice but to turn around and look at her coldly.

"Why is it you? Didn't you get burned to death?" He Hong widened her eyes in surprise, and tightened the whip in her hand with some fear, "Are you a human or a ghost!"

She was swinging the whip in her hand and was about to fall, but was grabbed by a strong force, "What are you doing!"

He Hong regained consciousness and looked at Wu Ti beside him, "Why are you yelling, what's going on with her, isn't Li Duo dead?"

"She's not dead." Wu Ti glanced at He Hong, let go of his hand, and said impatiently, "Go back."

He Hong saw that Wu Ti finally remembered his purpose of coming, and stared, "I ask you, are you going to grab Duolun's position as General?"

Wu Ti said angrily: "What do you mean I should grab it? Duo Lun didn't live up to it, and he hasn't come back until now! He Hong, don't mess around with me, go back to the prime minister!"

"Okay, you dare to talk to me like that now!" He Hong was full of anger, but she grabbed Zhiqing's arm with her backhand, "Is it because you like her too, so you don't pester me anymore? I told you You, you better keep an eye on her, if she dares to approach Doron, be careful of my whip!"

"Come on, send her back to the prime minister and let him discipline my daughter!" Wu Ti had He Hong escorted away, and then turned to look at Zhiqing, "Are you alright?"

Zhiqing felt that she had been wronged too much, even if she came out to breathe, she would meet He Hong, a savage young lady.And Wu Ti, since he is still pampering He Hong, why does he insist on tying himself to his side? What is going on in his mind!She doesn't have any freedom in Rouran, and she still has to be angry. Is this what he said was good to her?

Zhiqing glared at Wu Ti, turned around and walked back to the tent.Wu Ti followed behind her and also chased in, "Li Duo..."

Zhiqing stopped, and Wu Ti also stopped quickly, she turned her head to look at him in anger, "I heard that you have been in close contact with the prime minister, does he not mind if you kill Da Na? "

Wu Ti was stunned for a moment, and said truthfully: "Dana shot and killed Duo Lun. The Prime Minister will understand. Your matter, Da Na is dead, and it has passed long ago. Besides, I will not let anyone hurt you. "

"Really? I think the prime minister will remember it right away. Don't you think He Hong won't sue her father when she goes back?" Zhiqing looked at Wu Ti and suddenly smiled, "If you are really good for me, why don't you send her away as soon as possible?" I'm leaving, or the prime minister might send someone to kill me right away."

"No, I have always respected the prime minister, and the prime minister also said that he would fully support my succession to Khan. With me around, he dare not do anything to you."

Zhiqing looked at Wu Ti, although she didn't know how Jin Canzi won him over or what agreement they had, but with Wu Ti's mentality, she would definitely not be able to win against Jin Canzi.He was seeking skin from the tiger, and before Rouran and Wei Guo started the war, Jin Canzi was already planning for succession, he was really a man with deep plans and plans.

She sighed, and said calmly: "I knew that Da Khan favored Duolun when I was in Rouran. The prime minister valued him more before, but now why does he want to win you over instead? You once said that the prime minister is resourceful. How can you be so kind to such a person?" Can you understand him and know what he wants? Even if you can inherit the position of Khan in the future, how can you suppress the prime minister?"

Wu Ti fell into deep thought because of Zhiqing's words, he did not understand a lot about the prime minister.But he thought that the prime minister just wanted He Hong to be Rouran's princess, but now that he thought about it, it might not be that simple.

"But I need someone like the prime minister by my side..." Wu Ti suddenly realized what he was talking about with Li Duo, and couldn't help but put a smile on his face. In the past, he often told her what was in his heart, but she always It was very clever to help him figure out a way, maybe... Wu Ti happily held her hand, "Li Duo, I knew you still cared about me, right!"

Zhiqing withdrew her hand expressionlessly, lowered her head and said, "Maybe you need him, but you have to be on guard against him, especially if you can't completely believe what the prime minister said. Although you are planning for a rainy day, you are sweating profusely, so I don't think it is necessary." It's too hasty."

Wu Ti only felt that Zhiqing hadn't fully thought about it, maybe it would be fine in a few days, and didn't care much about her cold talk, and continued: "I heard from the prime minister that he arranged for someone in the big tent to send news that Father Khan's body is getting worse day by day, and he is fainting, so he told me to make plans early."

Zhiqing was startled, could it be that there were Jin Canzi's eyeliner all over the royal court. "The prime minister dares to put eyeliner beside Da Khan. Do you think there is no eyeliner around you? If one day, the prime minister has the heart to disobey you, what should you do?"

"I..." Wu Ti remained silent for a long time.

Seeing his appearance, Zhiqing breathed a sigh of relief, and finally bluffed him.Although these words are not all alarmist, she said so much just to appease Wu Ti and let him relax his vigilance towards her so that he will have a chance to escape in the future.She suddenly changed the subject and said: "I am just a little girl, you should think about your affairs yourself. If you marry He Hong in the future, the prime minister will be the head of the country, so what I said may not be true!"

Wu Ti, who was still in thought, looked up at Zhiqing, walked over to hug her, and laughed happily, "After talking for a long time, you still care about me, otherwise, how could you be jealous of He Hong?" Tightening the person in his arms, he promised gently but firmly, "Li Duo, believe me, one day I will become a profuse sweater, and you must be my princess!"

No matter how sweet Wu Ti's words are, Zhiqing will not take them to heart, because these are not what she wants, and she doesn't have the energy and strength to pursue them.Machinations, intrigues, power struggles, these are not something she can handle as a woman, it is really tiring.She could only mention Wu Ti from a few trivial things, but that was all she said, her purpose was still to plan how to escape from Rouran Royal Court.

At this time, He Hong was so angry in her tent that she didn't even see Jin Canzi walk in.Jin Canzi naturally heard her angry words.Jin Canzi has always been scheming and never allowed anything unknown to him in the royal court. He immediately sent someone to investigate the girl from Wei State who was in Wu Ti's camp.Hearing that this girl from the State of Wei was the maid who was burned to death in Xingyuan three years ago and now she is alive again, Jin Canzi frowned deeply, thinking of Da Na, he always felt that Da Na had something to say before he died, and now suddenly It is not that simple for a woman from Wei State to emerge, neither the person nor the matter.

……

The slow change of Zhiqing's attitude and the deliberate alienation made Wu Ti feel that she was slowly re-adapting to Rouran's life, and gradually she was no longer very restrained by her, while Zhiqing still stayed obediently. Xingyuanli.While waiting for the news of Doron's return, she was thinking about something in her heart.

As she expected, the next morning, taking advantage of Wu Ti's absence, He Hong blatantly broke into her tent.She has such a fiery temper, if she didn't come, she wouldn't be Jin Canzi's daughter He Hong.

Zhiqing kept smiling at He Hong's anger, when she got tired of cursing and wanted to swing the whip, she dodged and deftly avoided. "Don't you want to know what kind of woman Doron likes?"

The fluffy words made He Hong stop immediately, she bit her lip, and said, "What did you say!"

"I told you a long time ago that I have no intention of being interested in Duo Lun. If you are willing to speak well, I will tell you." He Hong stood there dumbfounded, apparently acquiescing.Zhiqing smiled slightly, "Duo Lun likes gentle and strong women, and..."

"And what?" When Duo Lun was mentioned, He Hong seemed to be a different person. She looked at Zhi Qing and asked urgently.

Zhiqing knew that He Hong was a straightforward person, so she didn't intend to beat around the bush, "I can teach you how to make Duo Lun like you, but you have to do me a favor."

"Can you make Duo Lun like me?" He Hong snorted and said, "Why should I trust you! I heard people say that Duo Lun now likes a witch named Hua Mulan from Wei State."

"That's all rumors. Duo Lun has been in Wufeng Valley for nearly half a year, and I have been in Wufeng Valley. We have always been good friends. He trusts me very much, so can you believe what you say about me?" For He Hong , She loves Duo Lun deeply, and I'm afraid she is more willing to believe the fact that she hopes.Seeing her silence, Zhiqing went on to say: "I just want to go back to Wei country, as long as you can help me realize my wish, I will help you too."

He Hong couldn't believe it, "You have been with Duo Lun in the Valley of the Five Phoenixes, how could you not like him, what kind of tricks are you trying to play!"

"Miss He Hong, you should know that I am from the country of Wei, and all my relatives are in the country of Wei. To tell you the truth, I am already engaged to someone, and my future husband is also from the country of Wei. Wu Ti forced me to come back. Of course I really want to Go back." She said while taking out something from her embroidered bag, "I know you don't believe it, so how about it, I'll give it to you."

He Hong looked at the round and clear jade pendant in his hand, touched it, and it looked very expensive, and asked, "What is this?"

"Duo Lun gave it to me. It is said to be very precious. I will give it to you. You should believe me." This oval ice stone is indeed not like ordinary jade. Give it to her, because she likes it so much, she always wears it on her body.

He Hong thought for a while, then clenched the stone in her hand, "Deal! But if you dare to lie to me, I will..."

"Miss He Hong, it is very difficult to help me leave the royal court, can I trust you?" Zhi Qing looked at her with clear eyes and asked back.

"There is nothing I dare not do in this royal court, tell me, how can I help you!"

Zhiqing didn't ask He Hong to help her implement the plan right away, on the contrary, she still stayed quietly in the Xingyuan every day, or wandered around, until she found out the guards and all the loopholes in Xingyuan and the royal court at each time period.She had to be sure that nothing would go wrong, and she could go out even without He Hong leading the way.

However, after a few days, Duo Lun has not returned, and Da Tan Khan will decide the candidate for the general tomorrow.Wu Ti told Zhiqing that if Duo Lun didn't come back, he would be the general who would lead the army, and he would take her with him.This was like a bolt from the blue to Zhiqing. When war broke out, it must be more difficult to escape in the chaos than in the royal court. Besides, she left, what would Fu Ling do?

Her plan had to be implemented before Wu proposed the expedition, so when she met He Hong in the royal court, she told her to implement the plan tomorrow night, sent her away, and prepared two fast horses outside the sphere of influence of the royal court.In order not to arouse suspicion, Zhiqing never went to the post station again, but she believed that Fu Ling would definitely escape with her.

The next day, a court meeting was held in Khan's big tent, but Duo Lun still hadn't come back. Da Tan Khan waited until the last moment before deciding to appoint Wu Ti as the general.Just when the seal was about to reach Wu Ti, Duo Lun walked into the big tent just in time. At this moment, the candidate for the general was finally settled.

When Wu Ti returned to Xingyuan, he told the news to Zhiqing who was waiting for him. Although he was a little disappointed, he was always in a good mood with her by his side.Besides, there is no need to fight for the length of a day. In the past two years, he has somewhat figured out Duo Lun's temper, and he doesn't seem to be very interested in Khan's position.

"The war is about to start, Fuling, what about Princess Xihai?" Zhiqing asked Wu Ti.

"According to Rouran's rules, the ministers will probably suggest killing her to sacrifice the flag." Wu Ti replied casually.

"What are you talking about! You can't do this!"

Wu Ti was taken aback by Zhiqing's angry look, he stood up from the table and walked over to comfort him: "Don't be angry, if Father asks questions at night, I will speak for Princess Xihai."

"Thank you." Zhi Qing eased her eyebrows and smiled at Wu Ti.

Her smile dissipated the last bit of unhappiness in his heart.Wu Ti held Zhiqing in his arms, and Zhiqing leaned in his arms, his heart could no longer be at peace, whether he could leave Rouran or not depended on tonight.

The author has something to say: There are a lot of words today, so let’s be late~ By the way, if Zhiqing can leave Rouran, when and how will she meet the general?I'm thinking about...
