The sky is bright summer on the banks of the Red River

Chapter 066

Maybe it was because the people brought back by Ming Xia were too difficult and troublesome. The old patriarch of Croa stayed up all night, hesitating back and forth in the felt tent, and almost didn't step out of a hole in the blanket.

Ming Xia, who also didn't fall asleep, walked into the yurt where Senasha was resting temporarily. When Ihabi saw Ming Xia coming in, he said softly: "Patriarch, he has been talking nonsense."

Only one oil lamp was lit in the dark felt tent. Under the dim orange light, the face of the person lying on the low brownish-red wooden bed could be vaguely discerned, haggard, pale and weak.The cheeks were flushed and the lips were chapped due to the high fever. With the weak breathing, the chest covered with white bandages rose and fell. If he hadn't heard him whispering, I'm afraid the prince would have fallen into such a deep sleep.

Ming Xia smiled faintly at Yihabi, who is always serious and steady, and persuaded him: "Ihabi, you go to rest first, and I'll take care of him. Don't worry, this matter is actually not as serious as you think, it's still serious." It's easy to handle." She spoke in a soft voice, and the eyes that stared at Ihabi naturally revealed a kind of peaceful and peaceful streamer, which made Ihabi's restless state of mind look at her pupils. Be quiet from within.

After seeing Ihabi leaving the yurt, Ming Xia adjusted the turban and robe on her body, gently sat sideways on the side of the bed, twisted a wet strip of cloth from the cold water basin beside her, and walked lightly It covered Senasa's high and smooth forehead.Perhaps the water temperature at night was cold, which immediately made his befuddled mind feel a little better, and he stopped uttering weird nonsense.

It was only now that Ming Xia took a closer look at this face that he hadn't seen in a year. His facial features were as beautiful as a jade carving, his slender beautiful eyes were tightly closed, and the ends of his eyes were slightly raised.Ming Xia remembered that when he smiled, he was always very good-looking, and there was a special charm in the corners of his eyes and brows, which was different from his imperial brother's domineering and flamboyant, but a kind of reserved, gentle and gentle.The formation of his temperament and temperament mostly stems from his embarrassing position in the royal family, and he suffered a lot, which is indescribable, which brought him to the situation he is in today.

Now he was wounded and sleeping here. Xi Li who was traveling with him in the original book must have met that rascal Ramses, right? !Thinking of this, Ming Xia couldn't help but twitched a little self-deprecating, when was it, and he was still thinking about that bastard.

After meditating quietly for a long time, a bean-sized lamp swayed in the night, stretching Ming Xia's figure to a long distance, and cast it on the felt tent. In the silent felt tent, this solitary figure revealed A faint feeling of bleakness and loneliness.

It was late at night and the dew was heavy. I don't know how long I sat there, and I don't know if the pill Ming Xia gave him had an effect. Senasa opened his eyes drowsily after sweating profusely.

br>"Alina?!" He let out a low voice, his voice was weak, but full of surprise and astonishment.

Interrupted from his contemplation, Ming Xia turned his head and stared at his face quietly without answering.

He was taken aback by Ming Xia's actions, and then a thick self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He stared at the top of the felt tent with some laziness, and whispered to himself: "How could I see you as her? She has already She got her wish and left the place she hates the most, how could she appear in front of me..." As he spoke, his voice became heavy, and he couldn't help being a little choked up, and finally closed his eyes sadly, and vomited heavily. His tone seemed to be trying to control his emotions.

After a while, he opened his eyes again, stared at Ming Xia with a polite smile, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I lost my composure just now, thank you for saving me."

Ming Xia sat quietly at the side, watching his every move, and the softest part of his heart couldn't bear it, and asked in a low voice with concern: "It's good if you wake up, does the wound still hurt?"

The same voice, the same tone, the same eyes, and the similar face instantly made this dazed prince fall into a dream, as if he was deeply trapped in his dream at this moment, but he didn't want to wake up.

"It's better, it's not so uncomfortable anymore." He asked, "What's your name?"

"Sarshat," she answered.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes suddenly, looked at Ming Xia's eyebrows and eyes, and said with a soft smile: "Alina, the way you speak hasn't changed at all, you can't hide it from me." Unable to express his joy, he looked at Ming Xia with eyes full of admiration and envy, and he said, "Now you are free, but I am still in that shackle, imprisoned for life."

Being exposed by him, Ming Xia was not angry, and replied with a smile: "You really have the guts to go to Egypt, aren't you afraid of being assassinated?"

"It's better than staying in the West Terrace and being questioned and questioned by the emperor every now and then..." He was still very weak, and he found it difficult to speak, "Staying in Egypt, there are enemies inside and outside, so there is no need to worry about the emperor's brother The lack of determination was provoked, and then he stabbed me in the back. On the contrary, he had to secretly send someone to protect me, or to monitor me. How to put it, he would not stay in Xitai, but in him So tired around."

Seeing that he was struggling to speak, Ming Xia picked up the purple jade spring water that he had prepared earlier, picked up a silver spoon, scooped up a spoonful without any explanation, and handed it to his lips, "Drink some water, you had a severe fever earlier. , lips are chapped."

Sena's eyes were full of smiles, and he obediently let Ming Xia feed him with water.There was silence between the two of them, except for the crisp metallic sound of the spoon hitting the cup.

After feeding the water, Senasa also felt that his physical strength seemed to have recovered a lot. Lying on the bed, looking at Ming Xia's silhouette, he said: "Alina, in fact, on the way to get married in Egypt, I had a dream. But I brought Xili to join you."

Ming Xia turned around in surprise, looked down at him, but heard him continue to say in a low voice and calmly: "We have been together for all these years, is there still something I don't understand about you? According to your nature, you will definitely come to the desert, here Although the conditions are tough and the environment is harsh, I believe that you have the ability to make your life in the desert comfortable and nourishing." He paused for a while, as if he was gathering strength, and after a while, he said, "Nowadays, Xili may not be happy if she stays by the emperor's side. She is more or less implicated because of me. Why don't I bring her to the Bedouin, live with the desert people, and live her life freely. Or It's waiting for me to find you, and I'm trying to find a way to send her back to the West Terrace after I'm safe."

After Ming Xia listened without saying a word, he said with a soft smile: "Your brother, I'm afraid you won't let her go back?! You are sure of it in your heart, and you even said that you will send her back to the West Terrace."

"I still can't hide it from you." He chuckled, causing pain in his chest, and gasped again, "Alina, how have you been this year?"

"Look at me, don't you think I'm having a bad day?"

"That's right, you will definitely have a better life than anyone else." He paused, and then said, "Alina, if I had told Brother Huang about your talent and wisdom from the very beginning, your situation would definitely be different. Being hostile and suspicious by the emperor like before, maybe you will not choose to leave the West Terrace..."

"You want me to stay in Xitai that much?!"

"Alina, don't you understand my heart? Do you really have to tell me?" He kept asking questions, and finally smiled wryly, more out of anger, "Okay, I'll tell you." , I like you, I really like you, and now I really regret that I didn't try to keep you at the beginning."

Ming Xia chuckled indifferently, but there was a hint of helplessness in the smile on the corner of his mouth: "Senasha, even if I stay, I can't be with you."

"But I can see you anytime, as long as Brother Huang treats you well, you will live happily. I am very satisfied."

"You're really burnt out..."

"That's why I regretted it. I regretted that I kept your promise and kept it secret for you." While speaking, he didn't know where he got the spirit, but he grabbed Ming Xia's hand tightly and squeezed her always His white palm, which was as cool as cold jade, pressed against his own face, rubbed it lightly, and he closed his eyes slightly, feeling the delicate softness in the palm and her unique temperature, and said in a low voice, "But , the world is just like you

As said, there is no if.Your previous identity is destined to let me look at you from afar, across the shore.I can't harm you because of my own selfishness. "The faint fragrance from the palm made Senasa feel a little uneasy.

The past is unbearable, and her annoying identity is destined not to be involved with anyone.If the king finds out that she has any affair with Senasa, he will think that she has provoked the feelings between their brothers.The final outcome is that the king will find a reason to kill her secretly without anyone noticing.The water in that pool was too deep, and it wasn't enough to explain what was going on inside in a few words.

"So, no matter what you do, as long as you show a little thought and stay with me, your dedication and sincerity in front of your emperor brother for so many years will be in vain. The most serious consequence is that you will be killed by him. Be assigned to the hostile side." Ming Xia sighed, feeling sorry.

Suddenly, Ming Xia felt a little warmth and dampness at her fingertips.Faintly, with bitter and salty water vapor, revealing such despair, helplessness and unwillingness.

"Are they all dead?" Before Ming Xia could think about it, he changed the subject and asked.

"Well, they're all dead. None of them survived except you."

The room suddenly became quiet, only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard, quiet and peaceful.

In the flickering candlelight, Ming Xia's thoughts went upstream with the long river of time, and in a trance, he returned to the great temple of Hattusha four years ago.

At that time, the two sat on the empty balcony of the temple, talking and laughing, playing chess and drinking.The once frivolous and arrogant handsome smile and the flamboyant youthful loyalty seemed to have become blurred.

All she remembered was that she said to him: You want to show your sincerity and ability in front of your imperial brother, but don't involve me in it.

He asked: why?

She said: I don't like it, I just don't like it.

He wondered: If Brother Huang asks about you, what should I say?

She laughed and said: You can say that I am an undercover agent sent by Princess Najiya, or that I am someone arranged by other nobles.No matter what, don't drag me into your imperial brother's camp, otherwise we won't even be friends.Maybe if you say that, your emperor brother will let you stare at me secretly, so you have enough reasons to come to me.

Sure enough, Senasa really obediently kept it a secret for her.

The lack of enthusiasm in front of his imperial brother means that Xia's origin is not clear, and it is very likely that the imperial concubine arranged for him.Successfully made Prince Kailu suspicious of her.At that time, when she saw the result, she was quite satisfied, but later, she deliberately acted in front of Prince Kailu, acting as if she was not happy.

Inadvertently mentioning all kinds of good things about Prince Xiuda, from time to time, causing some obstacles to Prince Kailu, making him completely lose his mind to pull her into the team, and also clearing an invisible obstacle for her own future retreat.
