Four hundred and sixtieth eight chapters Persian princess
Leah had to obey the emperor's father's orders. She had been dependent on her mother since she was a child, struggling to survive in the indifferent palace.
Because they are the ugliest women in the palace, their status is very low.
If he didn't still have a layer of emperor's blood, he would even have to work as a handyman.
Now Leah is going to the distant and mysterious East, but her departure can provide her mother with some favorable living conditions.
So Leah had to go, and she went willingly.
"Mother, my daughter is going to be married to the far east, where everything is full of troubles, but she will serve that bad old man well! Mother, don't worry, my daughter will make your life better!"
Seventeen-year-old Leah bid farewell to her mother Jesus.
Ye's daughter is only in her early thirties this year. Mother and daughter look very similar, with long legs, big eyes and fair skin.
Knowing that her daughter would marry to the far east, to a dying monarch, she felt filled with guilt.
In the past few days, everyone in the palace knew that Leah was given to Da Gan as a gift.
Everyone said that King Daqian must be a bad old man and he had a grudge against Persia, so His Majesty the Emperor gave him the ugliest Leah.
Leah and her daughter thought so too. Leah was fully prepared mentally for the miserable life in the future. She wanted to persevere for her mother.
"Lia, it's my mother who is sorry for you. You should run away quickly and leave me alone!"
Yesu wanted her daughter to escape, but how could Leah escape?
"Mother! I will not leave! I have made up my mind to go to Daqian!"
Leah's eyes were firm and she could not let her mother suffer.
On March 22, the second day of the Persian New Year, a team of two thousand people left Isfahan and set off towards the mysterious east.
Leading this team was the new commander Wellesyu who had just joined the army.
The sixteen-year-old captain Wellesyu was the son of Kafu.
He is Leah's nephew.
Before leaving Isfahan, Kaif took his son to meet Leah.
This is the first time Leah has met his nephew.
Kafu introduced to his sister that his son had been appointed captain of thousands and would escort Leah to the Eastern Kingdom.
"Don't worry, Cousin Kraft. Leah will definitely go to work wholeheartedly." Leah thought that Kraft asked Welles to spy on her.
But Kafu said extremely politely: "Your Highness, it is a long way to Daqian. If you need anything on the way, just ask Wellesti. If you are tired, you can rest in a safe place for a few days. Don't do it for My body is exhausted from traveling.”
Leah was stunned. Although Kafu was her cousin, he was a famous person on his father's side, and he was the heir to a super-large family in the Persian Empire.
You don't even have to be so polite when meeting the princes, why are you suddenly being polite to yourself?
Leah didn't quite understand, but nodded to show that she could persevere.
Kafu smiled and said: "Your Majesty has prepared a lot of things for the princess, and I will take them with you this time. I have also prepared the most comfortable carriage and the warmest blanket for you. I hope it can reduce your bumps on the road."
Leah couldn't stand Kraft's enthusiastic attitude. In her seventeen years of life, no one had ever been so kind to her.
"Cousin Kafu, just give me your orders! Do you want me to assassinate the King of Daqian?" Leah asked.
Leah felt that the emperor's father asked her to go to Daqian because he wanted her to carry out a mission that required death, and he might have told her before leaving.
But she couldn't stand Kraft's care, so she asked directly.
"Pfft!" Kraft sprayed directly.
This frightened him, and he hurriedly waved his hands and said:
"No, no, no! Cousin Leah! You must not do this! Dagan is so powerful that we in Persia cannot afford to offend him!"
"You are asked to go to Daqian to serve the great and respected King Daqian! You must not think wildly!"
If Leah kills Song Yang, then Dagan will have to fight with Persia.
Thinking of those terrifying artillery pieces, Kraft's face turned a little pale.
Again, kind words and advice.
Finally, Leah set off in confusion.
On the way, my eldest nephew Welles greeted me three times a day, and I had to take a rest after walking twenty miles.
There is a constant supply of delicious food and drinks, and from time to time there are seasonal vegetables delivered by the fast horse behind you.
At first, Leah thought the fresh vegetables might be poisonous.
In the end, I took it hard and nothing happened.
In this way, the journey eastward actually felt like being on vacation, with food and drinks to eat and no need to rush.
There is a comfortable carriage and two maids who are more beautiful and stronger than her!
These two maids were also arranged by Kraft.
For this eastward trip, Kraft spent a lot of money to build a luxury travel team for Leah.
The team also brought a lot of Persian specialties.
Moreover, Kraft went out of his way to find his cousin Jalal and asked him for an old servant who could speak Daqian.
He was responsible for teaching Leah the Dagan language on the road.
Now Leah is even more curious, what kind of person is the king of Dagan?
Do you have a special hobby and like ugly girls?
Leah thought so.
But in the process of learning Dagan language, the old servant actually told Leah that her appearance and figure were indeed beautiful in the eyes of Dagan people.
This makes Leah somewhat doubt her aesthetic knowledge over the past seventeen years...
The road ahead is slow. From Isfahan to Jiangzhou, it is probably thousands of miles away.
Leah could only learn the Daqian language and think randomly at the same time.
During the two months from Isfahan to the border, Leah learned some basic words such as "hello", "eat" and "sleep".
She felt that Daqian's language was really difficult to learn, and she even wanted to give up at one point.
But the old servant told her that this is what she must learn. If she cannot gain the favor of the Lord of Daqian, her mother may also lose her good life.
Leah then gritted her teeth and persisted.
In mid-May, the group finally arrived at Dolegien.
After Duoljian we reach the Western Region of Daqian.
Originally, Dolejian was also a state capital of Daqian, and was once called the Kunxu Prefecture Governor's Palace.
However, it was abandoned a few years ago, and later it was completely destroyed due to natural disasters.
It was only in the past two years that Persia took over this area.
In early June, Leah met her first Dagan man.
It was a caravan from Daqian. It was said that they came to a place called Qiuci to do business in Persia.
The leader of the caravan is named Wang Kai.
Wang Kai, who was traveling west, and Lia, who was traveling east, met.
There were two thousand Persians in Wang Kai's team.
They were those who worked in Suiye City. After several months of repairs, Suiye City was almost restored, so they were allowed to return home.
The two sides met, and Wang Kai heard that it was Kafu's son who had brought the Persian princess to give Song Yang a gift.
He immediately greeted Welles very friendly and politely, and then saluted Leah respectfully.
This is a woman who may become a princess, so of course Wang Kai cannot lose his etiquette.
From then on, on the eastbound journey, all Dagan people who saw Leah would bow respectfully regardless of their status.
Leah, who has lived at the bottom of society since she was a child, has some fears in her heart.
She didn't know how to face King Daqian in that position.
