The Four Concubines

When Dai Xue was born, Dai Shu was already five years old.

Dai Shushu shrank in the small room, watching three gorgeously dressed people walk up to her mother indifferently, and dropped money, a bag of rice, some furs, and pieces of meat.

Although at that time she didn't know that those people were servants of the royal court, and the birth of this younger sister brought her and her mother a slightly more relaxed life, Dai Shu began to like this younger sister.

But immediately she didn't think so.

When her mother usually went out to work, Daixue could only be entrusted to Daishu to take care of her. In Daishu's impression, before she was [-] or [-] years old, there was only one thing in her life - taking care of Daixue.

Compared with Daishu, Daixue is a skinny monkey. She jumps up and down every day and can't play outside. Her mother has to train Daixue every three days. After eating it, Dai Shu couldn't bear it.

After all, she was the one who pulled the big baby with one hand.

Because of this, the relationship between the two sisters is very good, and this relationship lasted until Daixue was 15 years old.

That year, Daishu was 20 years old. Although she was not yet married, the suitors had already stepped through the threshold of their family. Her mother just smiled and said there was no rush, and Daishu also politely said to wait and see.

But she was not happy.

When she thought that her sister was about to get married, she felt very uncomfortable, as if she was squeezed in the crack of the door and couldn't breathe, but she was a woman and couldn't change anything.

Dai Shu could tell Dai Xue was unhappy, but no matter how she asked, Dai Xue just shook her head and said it was okay. Dai Shu grew up by another year. The dancers of the family chose to learn to dance.

When Daixue brought the news home, Daishu was very happy, but her mother was uncharacteristically silent, but she didn't say much.

Daishu began to practice dance desperately, her master told her that this was to be performed in front of the king, as long as she performed well, she would have the chance to get various rewards.

That period of time was the hardest time in Daixue's life.

And this period of time was also the period when Daishu was most confused.

Her mother told her that she and Daixue were not real sisters, and that Daixue's father was the enemy of their mother and son who were exiled to the royal court and became servants.

When Dai Shu heard it, she felt that her mind was over.No wonder she always felt that something was wrong, yes, there would be no Daixue without a "father", and since there is a "father", why has she never seen her... Then, who is Daixue's father?

My mother didn't want to say more about this question. No matter how Dai Shu asked her, her mother's answer was silence.

But soon she knew who Dai Xue's father was.

Daixue was favored by the king because of Yiwu, and then found that Daixue was his daughter, so Daixue was named Princess Yinxue.

The good news spread throughout the royal court in an instant, but Dai Shu's heart was cold. She understood why her mother didn't tell her who Dai Xue's "father" was.

Daixue's biological father, her father-killing enemy, is the king of Guangxia Royal Court.

Can Dai Shu take revenge?On the one hand is the younger sister raised by himself, and on the other hand is his father-killing enemy.

Before Dai Shu had time to think clearly about this problem, another bad news came from the family. Her mother fell ill, and the disease was violent and violent. She didn't even have time to react, and her mother passed away in just one day.

Before she died, her mother gave her a sign asking her to find a man named Abek in the imperial army.

Dai Shu buried her mother silently, and at that time, Dai Xue was accepting the canonization of the princess in the palace.

Daishu took the sign and found Abek who was on duty in the Imperial Army. Abek looked at the sign and asked her, "Is there anything you want to do?"

"I want to leave here." Dai Shu was silent for a long time, and finally answered this answer.

And Abek really took her away from the Guangxia royal court, and she glanced at the brightly lit Gobi royal city outside the royal court.

Daisy will have a good life in the future.She thought so.

……

Princess Yinxue is looking for someone recently.

This is something that the whole royal court knows. It is said that it is her elder sister named Dai Shu. In order to find this person, Princess Yinxue dispatched the army at all costs, but in the end the entire royal court did not find any trace of that person.

Silver Snow has recently started drinking heavily.

This is what the maid of the princess mansion said, the princess seems to have lost her soul, besides drinking, she just mutters in the room by herself.

……

"Would you like to hear me tell a story?"

When Daixue was drinking the third jug of wine, a male voice suddenly came from inside the room.

"Who!" Dai Xue's eyes widened immediately, but her tone was limp because of drinking too much wine.

"Don't be nervous." A man came out of the shadows of the room slowly. The man had a refined face and his clothes looked like he came from the south.

"Who are you?" Dai Xue continued to ask, any time anyone can enter her princess mansion.

"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I know where the person you are looking for is." The man said.

"Where is my sister?" Daixue asked hastily.

"Before I tell you, let me tell you something about the past." The man smiled slightly, and spoke against the cool moonlight.

……

Dai Xue's alcohol has subsided a lot, although there is no evidence for what the man said about her relationship with Dai Shu, but she has a feeling that what the man said should be true.

So Dai Shu left without a word for this reason?

"What do you want me to do for you?" Dai Xue asked blankly.

"Princess Yinxue is smart." The man hooked the corners of his lips, "Actually, my purpose and the princess's are the same. You don't like this royal court, you don't like these dirty things in the royal court, my purpose is also the same, Guangxia's The royal court is too corrupt, what can a royal court with no ambitions achieve!"

Dai Xue raised her eyes to look at the man, and saw the man took out a small jade bottle and a letter from his bosom.

The man put both things on the table, "This letter contains where your sister is now, as well as my plan and what I need you to do."

"Aren't you afraid that if I find out where my sister is, I won't do what you say?" Dai Xue asked.

The man shook his head confidently, "You won't, we are the same kind of people, and what we want is the same thing."

After the man finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at the moon outside the court, "It's getting late, I'll take my leave first." After the man finished speaking, he stepped into the shadow of the court and disappeared without a trace.

Dai Xue looked at the letter on the table, and without lighting the lamp, she began to read by the moonlight.

After reading, Daixue put down the letter, picked up the jade bottle, and drank the contents without blinking.

Heijo

After Daishu came out of Guangxia Royal Court, she and Abek headed eastward, leaving Shanping Pass and arriving at Pingcheng in Daqin.

Abek is a reliable guard. She arrived in Pingcheng without eating much sand along the way. When she arrived in Pingcheng, she didn't know where he got so many friends. He gathered a small hunting group and went out to hunt some wild animals, and she was in charge. Sell ​​fur in Pingcheng.

Abek and the others are all good players, and the prey they hunted after going out for half a month can fill a small cart.

The people in the hunting group are also very cheerful, except for one person, who has been in the hunting group for three months, and Dai Shu has never even seen his true face.

That person always covered half of his face with a thick scarf, leaving only a pair of...peach blossom eyes.

Abek's evaluation of the man was only that the man's kung fu was good.

Dai Shu originally thought that her life in Pingcheng would always be so dull, but unexpectedly, she heard about Dai Xue in Pingcheng in just half a year.

Princess Yinxue came to Pingcheng.

Although the official document was not handed over in a serious manner, the people in Pingcheng knew that the princess of Guangxia was coming.

After the arrival of Princess Yinxue, the unification of the gentry in Pingcheng began to take action. They sent private soldiers to start door-to-door in Pingcheng looking for a Guangxia woman who was about [-] years old and had just entered Pingcheng for half a year.

Dai Shu knew that it was Dai Xue who was looking for her.

Abek also had a serious face when he heard the news, apparently he didn't expect them to find Daishu's whereabouts, but they had no choice but to pack their things overnight and prepare to enter the desert again.

Abek wanted Daishu to leave with the hunting group, but the good-natured neighbors led her directly to Daishu's small courtyard for a reward.

Abek frowned, and put his hand on the knife hanging at his waist. At the critical moment, the peach-eyed man grabbed Daishu and walked into the room, without looking back, he shouted at Abek, "You follow the The plan is to go first, and I will take her to find you."

Is it Daqin language?

Dai Shu was dragged into the room in a daze, and when she entered the room, she saw the man tearing off the scarf and the hat on his head.

Dai Shu was taken aback again, this almost coquettish facial features turned out to be a man?

Yun Ting looked at Dai Shu who was in a daze, and raised his eyebrows, "Take off your clothes, exchange."

Simple Guangxia dialect, but Dai Shu understood what he meant.

"I can understand Daqin language." Dai Shu said as she began to undress.

Yun Ting turned around consciously.

Dai Shu blinked, thinking, this person is sarcasm, I didn't expect that there are quite a lot of tricks, yo...

Dai Shu looked at Yun Ting's complexion which was obviously a lot lighter than that of Guangxia people, and she thought to herself that she was an authentic Daqin native.

Yun Ting is a head taller than her, but fortunately she has a slender figure. Although Yun Ting's clothes are a bit big for her, Guang Xia's clothes are always loose, so it is reasonable to say that they are bigger.

It's just that Yun Ting suffers, not only to wear women's clothes, but also to have women help him dress...

He really can't wear it.

Dai Shu suppressed a smile and helped him tidy his clothes, Yun Ting had a dark face.

"How is your Great Qin Yu?" Yun Ting asked suddenly.

Dai Shu nodded when she heard the voices getting closer outside, "Communication is fine."

Yun Ting nodded slightly, and wrapped her scarf around Dai Shu's face.

"Bang." The door was pushed open.

"Who's inside!" Someone yelled loudly.

"Is there something wrong with this official?" Yun Ting got up and said with a choked voice.

Dai Shu wanted to get up even when she was nervous, but was held down by Yun Ting.

The visitor looked Yunting up and down, amazed that such a small place has such a stunning woman.

"How old is my little lady?" The gentry private soldier outside the door immediately changed his name.

Yun Ting's face turned cold, "The official, please respect yourself!"

"Yo, the little lady looks pretty when she is angry." The private soldier continued to tease.

Yun Ting remained silent, another person came in behind him, he looked at the attire like a small captain, looked at the clean yard outside, and the two bundles on the table inside.

"You..." Turning his head and just saying a word, he was interrupted by Yun Ting's "beauty", shaking his head, remembering the business that his master told him, "Where are you going?"

Yun Ting said, "Returning to the official, my concubine is three months pregnant and is planning to go back to Daqin's hometown with my husband."

The team leader glanced at the tightly wrapped Dai Shu and raised his eyebrows, "What's the matter with him?"

Yun Ting sighed, "Isn't it just to earn more money for the children, staring at the prey in the desert, and not finding a place to shelter from the wind at night, so I caught a cold when I came back."

As Yun Ting spoke, he motioned to Dai Shu with his eyes, and Dai Shu immediately reacted, lowered her voice, and coughed a few times.

Yun Ting's tone was resentful and gentle, and his face was genuinely sad, which really made me feel pity.

The captain nodded, thought for a while and then asked, "Where is your hometown?"

Yunting smoothly announced a place.

The team leader took another portrait from the person behind him, and carefully compared it with Yun Ting. After confirming that it was correct, he asked again, "Someone reported that a Guangxia woman came to you half a year ago. What about this?"

Yun Ting quickly said in Guangxia dialect, "No, sir, I did come here half a year ago, but I am an out-and-out Daqin native, and the reason why I can speak Guangxia dialect is because I want to deal with those Guangxia hunters. .”

A private soldier next to the captain came to the captain and translated what Yun Ting said just now, and the captain nodded, "Well, Pingcheng is not peaceful these days, if you want to leave today, you can leave early, and you can't leave later out."

Yun Ting quickly made a blessing, "Thank you, Guan Ye, thank you, Guan Ye."

The team leader led the people away, and Yun Ting watched them leave until they could no longer hear their footsteps, then he was relieved and sat down straight away.

"Crack!" There was a strange noise from outside the house.

"Who!" Yun Ting got up, stretching his feet apart, ready to fight, his posture is handsome, but the clothes he's wearing are really...

Abek climbed over the wall and came in. As soon as he entered the room, he saw such a "enchanting" Yunting, and the usually steady person was taken aback.

Seeing the person coming, Yun Ting let out a sigh of relief.

"I can't go to Guangxia." Abek said after regaining his senses, "The city gate leading to Guangxia is extremely strict, and Shanping Pass has also set up troops to check people who come and go."

"Then what should I do?" Dai Shu asked, she knew in her heart that Dai Xue was looking for herself, and she might have a lifetime of food and clothing when she went back, but she was really satisfied in the past six months after she came out. It feels really good to be free.

"Go to Daqin." Abek looked at Yunting and said.

Yun Ting frowned, his face was very bad.

Seeing this, Dai Shu also understood that Yun Ting might not want to help, so she hurriedly said, "Those people just came here and won't come back for the time being, let's see if there is another way, this one..."

Dai Shu was taken aback when she said this, and found that she still didn't know the name of this person.

"This one has helped us a lot."

After hearing this, Yun Ting frowned, and glanced at Abek, "We'll still gather here when the wind dies down."

Abek nodded, and took out a few banknotes from his bosom, Yunting was not polite, and took them all.

Yun Ting put away the banknotes, picked up the heaviest burden, looked at Dai Shu and said, "Follow me."

Daishu looked at Abek, Abek nodded, and then Daishu carried another burden and followed Yun Ting's footsteps, Abek stood in the yard watching the two leave.

The two left Pingcheng without any risk. Although they were also stopped for interrogation, but with "Yun Meiren" present, the soldiers didn't question them carefully, and let them go without hesitation.

After leaving the city, Dai Shu let go of her tense heart and took a deep breath.

Yun Ting still walked in front, Dai Shu followed and said gratefully, "Thank you."

"Yunting."

Yun Ting opened his mouth and kept walking, "My name is Yun Ting."

Dai Shu was taken aback, paused for a moment, then her eyes lighted up slightly, she ran a few steps to catch up with Yun Ting, and also said, "Dai Shu, my name is Dai Shu."
