Chapter 52 Prisoned Love
I sat on the horse without saying anything along the way. When I came back, Yekel asked me to ride on his mount. It was a purebred sweat-blooded horse with a dark body and shiny hair. Yekel had trained him for many years and was full of aura.
Love General. Regarding Yekel's move, Fia and Saiya both expressed envy, but more of them were puzzled.
He originally wanted to ride with me, but I declined on the grounds that men and women cannot be intimate.
He smiled and changed to another horse, and just like that, the three of us rode side by side, followed by more than a hundred horses, and slowly returned to the royal court.
As soon as Amis got off the horse, she said goodbye to Yekel and me, saying she was going back to change clothes. She was sweating all over while riding. Yekel nodded in agreement and told Amice to be obedient and not to cause trouble again. Amice
He nodded in annoyance, like an inertial robot, and answered um, um, yah, yah, yah, yah, ah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, etc.
Finally, with Yekel's permission, Amis led Fia away as if she were running away.
Time seemed to have stopped, and we were silent to each other. I could feel Yekel's probing gaze, and after a while he slowly said: "Follow me into the palace!"
I followed him indifferently, walking up the stone steps and entering the Underworld Wolf Hall.
The interior of the temple is a little dark, perhaps because there are no windows, or perhaps because the decoration is too solemn and plain. In short, I feel that the inside and outside are like two heavens of ice and fire. It is dark and dark inside, and the outside is dark and dark.
sunny.
He led me into the side hall and sat down on the throne covered with silver fox fur. In the center of the hall, curls of white smoke rose from a large golden hollow incense burner, and the fragrant aroma lingered on the tip of my nose. I took a breath,
Suddenly I felt a little stuffy in my heart. I really don't know how he could like such a strong aroma.
"There is a small medicine box in the second drawer of the cabinet on your left. Didn't you say you want to bandage it for me? Why are you still standing still?" He stared at me with squinted eyes and a narrow smile on his lips.
I glanced at him and moved to the left. Just as he said, I found a small medicine box in the second drawer. I carried the medicine box to him, opened it, found gauze and alcohol, and returned
There is gold ointment for wounds.
I disinfected his wound carefully. I knew it would be very painful, but he watched the movements of my hands motionless. I quickly bandaged his hands, packed the medicine box, and prepared to
After that, I said goodbye and left, because I didn't want to have too much interaction with anyone here, except Yue Ming and Amis.
"Wait, you haven't told me why you are here? Who are you?" He stood up from his seat and stopped me from leaving.
I looked into his eyes fearlessly, and his pupils were slightly shrunk, filled with unknown emotions.
"I had no intention of coming to Xiyue. It was only by chance that I was injured and was rescued by Princess Amis. That's why I came to Xiyue. King Khan doesn't have to worry. Avril's injury has healed now. I originally planned to say goodbye to the princess and leave today. It happened to be
The princess invited me to ride a horse, so I was delayed. Thank you King Khan for saving your life today. Avril will remember it in my heart. Now it is time to leave. Please forgive me for disturbing you!" I returned slowly and said nothing.
The wording is calm and unruffled.
"Oh? That's it. It's so rare to meet the girl again, and Ben Khan is really reluctant to let her go back like this. To be honest, last time there was a turtle on the snowy peak, the girl's beautiful figure was burned into Ben Khan's heart.
I can't get rid of it, making me dream about it. Now that I meet the girl again, it is really a blessing from heaven. I want to make you the queen of Xiyue Kingdom!" His voice was like thunder, hitting my already uneasy heart. Why?
Will this happen?
I stared at him with my eyes wide open, and saw his sincere and serious look. I believed that he was really not kidding me. I tried hard to suppress my mixed emotions, and pretended to be calm and replied:
"I understand the kindness of King Khan. King Khan is wise and powerful. He should be married to a dignified and virtuous man who can serve as an example for women in the world. My long-cherished wish in my life is to live an ordinary life, travel around the world, laugh at the mortal world, and live a life with red walls and high tiles.
It’s not suitable for me, so I ask King Khan to grant it and let Avril go!”
He hummed in displeasure, walked up to me, and pinched my chin with his big hand. I frowned in pain and stubbornly tried not to breathe out. He seemed to be greatly provoked, and his handsome face came closer.
On my cheek, I whispered: "Tell you, don't know good from evil. Do you know how many people dream of becoming the queen of this Khan, but you actually sneer at it like this? Are you doing it for freedom or for that declaration?"
The prince of the country?"
It turns out that he knew it, so why bother pushing him so hard? I pulled his hand away. He seemed to be a little shocked by my sudden or bold and rude behavior, and looked at me blankly. I rubbed it.
With his sore jaw, he smiled coldly and said: "Since King Khan knows where my heart belongs, why bother pushing me so hard? Hasn't King Khan heard that melons twisted by force are not sweet?"
"I believe that time can change everything. I am willing to wait for the day when you agree to become my Queen of Xijue. From today on, you will live in the Xinan Pavilion of the Underworld Wolf Palace. I will send a few maids to serve you.
.During this period, without the handwriting of this Khan, you are not allowed to step out of Xinan Pavilion!" He grabbed my hand with a devilish and cunning smile on his face.
"You want to imprison me? No, you have no right to do this. Aren't you afraid of provoking war between the two countries because of me? If Ye knew about it, he would never let you go. Please think again, King Khan.
!" My heart was beating in panic, what should I do? My mind was constantly searching for what kind of words I should use to make him give up this crazy move.
"I heard that Ling Ye, the third prince of Xuan Kingdom, has been named Prince Rui and is responsible for coordinating the affairs of the government and taking care of everything. I am afraid that he has no time to take care of you at all, let alone knowing that you are in Xiyue? Haha, don't worry, even if
It’s a war between two countries, and I’m happy to accompany you, just to keep you by my side! Avril!” He deliberately emphasized the word Avril, and his deep breath blew in my ear, which only made me feel more bored and disgusted.
I looked at him with a determined face, completely speechless. I knew that nothing I could say now would change his determination to force me to stay in Xiyue. Now I can only wait for Nangong Han to come back, and I have to find a way to make Amis
Help me escape from this place of right and wrong.
In this way, I have been under house arrest in the Xinan Pavilion by Yekel for three days. During these three days, he came to see me at court and gave me many valuable things. The side hall of the Nuan Pavilion was filled with dazzling gifts.
Red agate, as bright red and as moist as pigeon blood. The priceless Tensilk brocade is said to have come as tribute from the remote country of Perth. It is hard to buy even one piece for a lot of money. It feels soft and nothing when worn. There are only two pieces in total, one is white.
Yizi, all of them were sent to me. Not only these, but also various dresses, hairpins, toys, etc., all of which were jewel-like, exquisitely made, and sparkling silver that made people’s eyes shine. However, I didn’t even see much of these.
At a glance, Petofi said: "Life is precious, but love is even more valuable. If it's for freedom, both can be thrown away." He imprisoned me and deprived me of my freedom. Did he think that he could impress me with these mere external things?
?Hmph, if I were such a vulgar person, I'm afraid I would even look down on myself!
"Don't you like these things that I have been rewarded by this Khan?" Yekel asked angrily, looking at the mountain-like pile of rewards that had never been touched in the side hall.
I pretended not to hear his words and continued to look at the only thing I could do at the moment: reading.
"You!" Seeing my disrespectful attitude, Yekel's face turned livid in an instant. He snatched the medical book I placed in front of him and tore it into pieces. The broken pieces of paper were like
It floated away like fallen leaves, swirling in circles in the air, and finally lay helpless on the ground.
Seeing his extreme behavior, I sneered: "I didn't expect that the son of a wolf, who is a majestic king of a country, has such a low emotional intelligence." I slowly stood up from the chair and faced him without any fear.
His eyes have long been blazing with anger. I just want to provoke him. It's best if he kills me, otherwise he can't make me surrender.
He stared at me closely, then the anger on his face suddenly disappeared, and he burst into laughter. He looked at me who was a little surprised, with a trace of pride flashing in his eyes. He walked around me in a circle, and whispered teasingly in my ear.
Said: "You have character! Do you know that in order to get the favor of Ben Khan, the women in the royal court tried their best to please him, but you are the only one who dares to treat me with such an attitude. Haha, there was a time when Ben Khan
I don’t understand why I keep thinking about you. What fascinates me so much? Now I finally know: because of your character, your arrogance, everything about you attracts me deeply. Even when you are angry and indifferent.
, it’s so cute and intoxicating!”
I was completely speechless. Could this man have schizophrenia? One moment he looked horribly angry, and the next moment he started smiling so contentedly. It seems that I really underestimated him. For him
With such stubbornness, I didn't want to talk to him for a moment, otherwise, I would be mad, and it would be my turn to enjoy the words about low emotional intelligence. I rolled my eyes at him, and asked coldly: "You
How long are you going to imprison me for? If I don't agree to become your queen, do you plan to imprison me forever?"
"I have plenty of time to wait for you. You have to think clearly whether you want to be the queen of the world happily or live in this world forever." He stared at me with a charming and meaningful smile.
.
"I'm tired. King Khan, please go back and let me think about it carefully!"
He was quite surprised by what I just said. After all, my attitude was much tamer than at the beginning. His shrewd eyes looked at me with inquiry, and he seemed to be very satisfied with my performance. He nodded and said with a smile: "Okay.
, Ben Khan will come see you again tomorrow!”
After that, he turned around and left, and the door of the palace was tightly closed the moment he left. I sat slumped on the chair as if I had lost my center of gravity, and my hands unconsciously formed into fists. It seems that I need to change my strategy. If I just blindly
If I resist and refuse, he will definitely keep his promise and keep me imprisoned here forever. It is better to give him a hard time and let him relax his vigilance. If I can move around freely, the chance of escape will be greatly increased.
After making up my mind, I suddenly felt relaxed. I had hardly slept well in the past three days, and now my head was very dizzy. I stood up and walked towards the bed. As soon as my body touched the bed, I felt deep.
Fell into a deep sleep.
This sleep was long and deep, and I woke up suddenly when I felt someone whispering next to me. In the dim light, I clearly saw a dark figure sitting in front of my bed, and I sat up quickly.
He used too much force and his forehead hit the black figure's chin hard.
"Oh..." I covered my forehead and looked at him displeased. Is this damn Yue Ming sitting here silently trying to scare me to death?
Wait, I took a look at the palace door. It was tightly closed. Outside the palace, I could vaguely see the silhouettes of the four guards reflected diagonally on the paper window. How did this guy get in? I was suspicious.
Stare at him.
Yue Ming showed a charming smile, and his white teeth were particularly clear in the dim light. He made a shushing gesture and said in a weak voice: "There are masters out there, we must keep our voices down."
I nodded and asked, also holding my voice: "Why didn't you come until now? Do you know that I have been imprisoned here by Yekel for three days?"
"I know, you are serious. You can't provoke anyone, but you choose to provoke Yekel. It seems that he is determined to make you his queen." He knocked my head with some annoyance, not forgetting Bai Bai.
I glance at it.
God knows how wronged I was, so I sniffed and said with a grimace: "Who provoked him? The most innocent person in the whole thing is me. Yue Ming, you have to help me, you can't bear to look at me no matter what."
Is this fellow countryman being bullied by them?"
"Of course I don't want to see it. But Yekel is now overwhelming the sky with one hand and has huge power. With the strength of you and me alone, let alone escaping from Xiyue, it will be difficult for us to break out of the royal court. Do you know that he can't even break out of his own brother?
He has been forced into the Zen position, and his methods are extraordinary. First of all, if you want to have a chance to escape, you must first paralyze him and make him relax his vigilance. Therefore, you must agree to him and become his queen!"
"I've thought about this too, and I told him today to let me think about it."
"That's right, at least you have to regain your freedom in the royal court. Let's make long-term plans next." Yue Ming nodded and comforted.
"Yue Ming, is there any news about Nangong Han?" If there is, I believe he is willing to help me. He has great martial arts skills, and the chance of winning will be much higher with his help.
Yue Ming shook his head and teased: "Do you still expect a killer who once wanted to kill you to come back and save you? Let me tell you, Avril, you are really stupid!"
I pinched his arm hard, and he grinned in pain, but didn't dare to make a sound. The embarrassment was really funny. I tried hard to suppress my laughter, for fear that if I couldn't help it, I would cause trouble outside the hall.
Attention of those stationed guards.
"Hey, Yue Ming, can you bring me a book on spice preparation next time you come?"
"What do you want that book for?" Yue Ming asked, raising his thick eyebrows in confusion.
"Of course it has its uses, you will know when the time comes!" I whispered pretending to be mysterious.
"Okay. I'm going back. Don't worry. At least you still have me as a fellow countryman by your side. I will protect your safety in Xiyue!" His deep and clear pupils were full of determination, and I felt a little sore in my nose.
It’s sour because it’s really touching. When you feel lonely and helpless, there is someone who is willing to protect you and accompany you. How happy that is!
"Well, be careful!" I watched him slowly leave the edge of the bed, quickly climb up the skylight on the top of the attic, and disappear in the dark night.
