May your heart be like mine

I called Huadi hysterically from inside and outside the camp, but what responded to me was a king's order: King Hetu sent an order, and everyone pulled out the camp and retreated westward.The camel team carried the belongings of the entire kingdom, and the king's team walked in the middle, guarded by warriors on both sides, whether willing or not, they marched mightily westward.

After walking for a day, I arrived at an oasis and set up camp. I sat in the tent and wrote a memorial to King Hetu in tears: In the past, my concubine’s father and the late king Lei Lie concluded a surrogate diplomatic relationship. In the death of King Lie, the concubine also homesick deeply, begging the king to take pity on the concubine, and allowing the concubine to return to the generation.

On the second day after the memorial was delivered, King Hetu summoned him. In the king's tent, I bowed softly: "I have seen the king."

King Hetu was more extravagant than his father, King Leilie, the tent was shining with gold, and he also wore a lot of jewels.Sitting on the throne, he said condescendingly: "Your memorial book has been read by the king. You have been in Xiangguo for many years, and the previous king did not grant you a promotion, but I have wronged you. Now, the king is new, and I will send an envoy soon." Go to the country of Dai to show friendship. If you are homesick, you can send a letter to your father by the envoy, and when the envoy returns, this king will choose a day to honor you."

I was stunned, but I had no choice but to hope that my father would come forward and take me back.

I wrote a letter to my father with anticipation and apprehension, and entrusted the envoy to deliver it.In the letter, I wrote a lot of memories of when my mother and concubine were alive, my father took me to watch her dance together, and asked about my father's physical condition.Talking about the customs of the state of Xiang, he specifically mentioned the tradition of inheriting his father and his wife from the son, and stated the loyalty, filial piety, etiquette and righteousness of the state of Dai.At the end, at the end of the letter, it is said that if the daughter hopes to return to the Dai Kingdom, she will definitely dance at the knees of her father and emperor, and dance a neon dress dance for her mother and concubine.

After the letter was sent, I looked forward to it day and night, hoping that my father would come and pick me up;

One day half a month later, I was washing clothes in the backyard, and received a message from the guard that the envoys of my father had arrived.I threw away my clothes and went back to the tent. Before the envoy saluted me, I couldn't wait to ask: "But the emperor wants to take me back?"

The envoy presented a small box and said, "This is a gift from His Majesty to the princess."

I reached out tremblingly to take the box, but I couldn't hold it firmly. The box fell to the ground, and the gift inside fell out. It was a dagger that was shining with silver light and cold. It was obvious that it was a very good dagger. , very sharp.I asked in a hoarse voice: "But it was given by His Majesty?"

The envoy didn't answer, and quietly retreated.

After the envoy left, I took a dagger and wanted to end it several times.But after all, I thought of Huadi. After the palace change, Huadi disappeared. I always believed that he was still alive.I said to myself, I must not give up until the end. Brother Hua said he would rescue me, marry me and protect me. I must wait until Huadi comes.

I hid the dagger under my pillow and continued to live humblely.
