I blurted out without thinking: "Aren't you going to eat dumplings?"
He looked at me with interest, "Where is your hometown?"
I had no choice but to nod. He looked at me, stopped his chopsticks, his eyes were shining, and said softly: "There is another allusion to 'eating wontons'. According to the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty", during the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu often harassed the Han Dynasty's borders.
, in the Xiongnu tribe, there were two leaders, the Hun clan and the Tun clan, who were very ferocious. The Han people hated them so much that they used meat fillings to wrap them into wontons, taking the sounds of Hun and Tun, and eating them as "wontons".
Because this day is the winter solstice, every household has had the custom of eating wontons since then. If you eat more wontons, you can defeat the Huns as soon as possible."
He said, looking at the wontons in front of me, and then looking at me again with bright eyes, "Eat more and help me get rid of the wontons as soon as possible."
I knew what "wontons" he was referring to, so I didn't answer his question. Instead, I told him about my previous life when I was celebrating the Winter Solstice Festival in modern society.
I only remember the habit of eating dumplings in modern times. I still remember one year during the Winter Solstice Festival, I went to a restaurant with my friends after get off work to eat dumplings. There were many people queuing from six o'clock until nine o'clock in the evening to eat the dumplings. It seemed that they didn't eat the dumplings. It's really like freezing your toes or ears off.
Sima Jue listened to me attentively, with the corners of his lips curved upward, his eyes as deep and bright as morning stars, and his face full of curiosity, as if he was a focused boy listening to an interesting story.
But I looked at another "him" who was different from the past.
"Your Majesty, the time has come." Song Chu's voice came from outside the door, interrupting our trance.
Kobalufo led the ministers and others to welcome a group of twenty or so of us into the royal court.
Everyone was polite, and the Erma tribe's "Winter Solstice" festival sacrificial celebration began with the sound of musical instruments. All the Erma tribe members gathered in a large open space in front of the temple where the "Sunbird" was built.
Kobalufo led the elders and ministers of the clan, as well as Sima Jue and us, to stand on the high platform.
The people of the Erma tribe performed a series of solemn and complicated ceremonies under the leadership of Buddha Kobalu. Afterwards, Buddha Kobalu led everyone to recite the sacrificial speech loudly.
I can't understand the Erma language, but I'm sure it's nothing more than congratulations to the gods and prayers for the harvest and safety of the people. This posture is very similar to the scene of worshiping the Yellow Emperor in the era I lived in.
The words of sacrifice were like a book from heaven, which made people tremble in the cold wind. I cast my eyes among the crowd, looking for handsome men and beautiful women to amuse my eyes.
Her eyes unexpectedly found Princess Cobameisi again. The little girl looked disrespectful to her ancestors and was not focused at all. She blinked her beautiful eyes and focused entirely on looking at Sima Jue. Her eyes were filled with excitement, and she was completely gone.
Removed from Sima Jue.
I took a sneak peek at Sima Jue and saw only his side face. The lines on the side of his face were smooth and clear, showing seriousness. Yes, he was pretty. He was listening carefully to Buddha Kobalu's memorial speech.
After the ceremony, everyone presented gifts.
I wanted to know what gift Sima Jue had given to Kobalufo, so I craned my neck to take a look. I was shocked when I saw it. It turned out to be a pair of shoes and socks. I almost couldn't help laughing out loud. Sima Jue! You!
Why are you so stingy about giving gifts like this? Not to mention giving some gold or jade is so honorable. It's strange that Cobalt didn't throw it in his face.
Unexpectedly, Kebalu Buddha's face became solemn when he saw it, and he said with excitement in his tone: "The King of Yue is very respectful, I have exceeded it, and I feel ashamed. From now on, I will definitely pay homage to the leaders of the Northern Jin Dynasty, and work together for the great unity of the world."
My mouth was open and messy in the wind. I was so excited to give shoes and socks? Then if you give gold and jade, don't you have to worship me sincerely? What kind of custom is this? Could it be... I don't have it again?
Cultured?
"There is no need for the prince to blame himself. The whole world is the same as we travel on the great road, and we all lead to the same destination through different paths. I, the Northern Jin Dynasty, have always been broad-minded and have never been complacent. We are good friends and good neighbors. The Erma people must not have any different ideas. We will win."
Enjoying peace, the people under the Great Harmony will be able to have adequate clothing and shelter, and have no worries about food, so that all nations will be in harmony." Sima Jue said with a solemn look on his face.
"What a harmonious alliance for all nations. What the Prince of Yue said is exactly what I want. I also hope that our people will have no worries about food and clothing, live in peace, and enjoy their careers! Please!" Ke Balufo said and toasted to Sima Jue.
I didn't care what they were talking about, I was only interested in the food in front of me. I watched the rich ethnic dance in the venue, which was really lively and eye-catching!
"Prince Yue, I respect you." Keba Meisi Meimei finally appeared. She couldn't hide her admiration for Sima Jue. She was holding kumiss with excitement on her face. She had a smile like a flower, a red dress and two long braids.
On my chest, I wore a necklace made of red beads on both sides of my bun. Pearl tassels hung on my forehead. With my movements and smart eyes, my pretty face shone accordingly. I sighed sincerely,
Why am I a woman? There are so many beautiful women in ancient times.
He quickly turned his head to look at Sima Jue and then at Lou Yang. Well, that's about right. My eyes feel better.
"Prince Yue, I have one more thing to ask Prince Yue to agree to." Kobalufo's voice made my ears prick up again.
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"My little girl Meisi has always admired the King of Yue. I have an unsolicited request. Please ask the King of Yue to accept my daughter as his concubine. In this way, the Erma people and the Northern Jin Dynasty will become one family and jointly resist foreign invasion. The world will be peaceful. I hope the King of Yue will make it happen."
I stopped eating. It turned out that this was the "highlight". I stared at Sima Jue intently, hoping that he would never agree and think carefully, otherwise he would suffer from kidney failure!
I saw that Sima Jue had a charming smile on his face again, and he said: "Princess Furong is out of the water, she is so beautiful and graceful, I will definitely report it to our emperor as soon as possible to show the princess's wishes."
I shook my head secretly: Since ancient times, heroes have always been like vixens. Besides, I don’t think Sima Jue is a hero.
"That's great. We will be a family from now on. We, the Erma tribe, will do our best to clear the border!" Cobalufo laughed happily, and he and other leaders of other small tribes toasted to Sima Jue frequently.
.
After hearing this, Princess Meisi was even more happy and said hurriedly: "King of Yue, please let Meisi go back to the Governor's Mansion with you so that you can serve the King of Yue more conveniently."
"What Mei Si said is absolutely true. The King of Yue has been away for a long time, how could he not have a woman by his side to serve him? I think it's settled." Cobalufo nodded happily.
"Thank you for the good intentions of the princess and the princess. However, I am often away on expeditions and have not been in the governor's mansion for a long time. I am afraid that I will neglect the princess and it will not be safe on the battlefield. I hope that the princess will wait at the village mansion first and wait for me to report to my father to make a decision as soon as possible."
"Prince Yue, please don't refuse..."
Why is the house so hot in the middle of winter? I didn't want to listen anymore, so I quietly got up and walked out. Why are the women of the Elma tribe so open-minded? They have to live with the man whether they are married or not. It's really uncultured.
It’s no wonder that Cobame thinks that he and I have the same thoughts.
Tutoring is also a technical job and is really important!
Lou Yang on the side saw me coming out and he followed me out. "It's not a good time to leave at this time, don't you think?" he said, pointing to the warnings around him, and I nodded helplessly.
"We'll take action in the dark!" he said.
I nodded, "Stay inside for safety first," Lou Yang reminded.
I hurriedly said: "Go up, go up to the latrine!"
"In the back." Lou Yang pointed in the opposite direction, "Be careful, I'm waiting for you here."
My heart felt hot and I nodded to Lou Yang. Lou Yang is better!
The sky that had stopped snowing now had snowflakes falling again, and it was dark and cold, just like my depressed mood at this time.
Rather than going to the latrine, I felt depressed and found an excuse for myself to stay away from the noise and quiet my mind, but why did someone bother me even with such a small request?
As soon as I arrived and walked around the back of the banquet hall, someone touched me from behind and waved his hand in annoyance, "Sister, I'm upset, don't pay attention to me." When I turned around, I felt a sudden chill on my neck, and a sword was placed across my neck.
superior.
"I'm annoyed too, but catching you will relieve my troubles." A man in navy blue clothes behind him said, his tone was cold and not joking. He looked like he was in his twenties, with long hair hanging loose.
, his skin is dark and reddish, his appearance is quite handsome, he has deep eyes and a high nose, and he wears a big single earring, but his eyes are as sharp as an eagle looking down at his prey, and the coldness of the sword itself makes me feel this from the bottom of my heart to the outside.
The man was even more trembling than the weather was. I looked at the earring on his left ear and said tremblingly, "Brother, I, I am a woman and I don't have such a hobby!"
The visitor smiled sinisterly and said, "You're not a woman, so I'm not looking for you!"
Ah! What a tragedy, it turns out that this is not his hobby!
I was immediately horrified, pointed behind him, and exclaimed: "Look, it's a handjob!" The man was stunned for a moment, and when he turned around, I quickly ducked under his side and let out a scream that was almost hysterical, "
I'm going to die! -" Actually, what I wanted to shout was "Help", but I was so frightened that I shouted out what was in my heart.
My screams were probably a bit heartbreaking, and they made me itch to hear them. The reason why I made such a sound was because the evil spirit emanating from this person's body really made me feel scared from the bottom of my heart.
I ran away after shouting. Before I could take a few steps, I felt numb all over in the snow. Just when I opened my mouth to shout, I felt numb and painful again. I couldn't move or shout anymore.
After being tapped on my acupoints by the man, he said, "Bitch, you lied to me!" He picked me up on his shoulders and ran towards the outside of the village house.
After leaving the village house, we reached the back, where there were about twenty people in foreign costumes waiting. When they saw this man carrying me out, they hurriedly led the horse to surround me. The man threw me on the horse and ran away.
I couldn't care less, my stomach was pounding as if the food I had eaten was about to come out. I rolled my eyes desperately and looked behind me. Why hasn't anyone come to save me? I shouted loudly! A hero saves a beautiful woman at a critical moment.
Scene, why did it fail me again?
Finally, when my eyes turned sore and blurry, I saw the shadow of a flying horse coming from the distance. I quickly closed my eyes to calm down, then opened my eyes and took a closer look. It was Lou Yang, followed closely by a horse.
The black horse is so familiar to the people on it. The flying black brocade-covered mink fur cloak flies over like a black cloud against the white snow.
