The night was warm and lingering, and the scenery was infinitely beautiful. But the happy time was short-lived after all. When the red candles burned out, it was almost dawn.
Despite all kinds of reluctance, Lin Jue stood up at Wanyan Mingyue's urging. The two of them got dressed and took care of themselves briefly. Wanyan Mingyue even folded the white sheet carefully.
Put it away. After the white sheet was rolled and rolled all night last night, the juice of the petals below printed the shape of flowers of various colors on the sheet. The most beautiful one is the blossoming red plum below.
It is the proof of Wanyan Mingyue’s love from a girl to a woman.
"Husband, it's still dark, you can leave now. Husband can choose to cross this mountain or leave from the mountain pass to the north." Wanyan Mingyue took Lin Jue's hand and said softly.
Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "You and I are already husband and wife, you just come with me."
Wanyan Mingyue shook her head and said: "No, I can't leave with you. Although I really want to do that, I am the Golden Flower Princess of the Jurchen tribe. My Jurchen tribe is going through earth-shaking events. How can I leave you at this time?"
How could my tribe leave my brother? Although I disapprove of many of their actions, I cannot leave them. We all swore an oath in front of Changshengtian. If you betray your tribe, you will not only suffer disaster, but also others.
It will harm the people around you and future generations. So, forgive me for not leaving with you."
Lin Jue nodded thoughtfully. He knew Wanyan Mingyue's feelings. Just as he could not stay in the Jurchen army to serve the Jurchen tribe, Wanyan Mingyue felt the same way. This was also the relationship between the two people that was destined to be fruitless from the beginning.
The reason is that they are originally from two worlds.
"In this case, I won't advise you anymore. Mingyue, I want you to remember that no matter how far apart we are, after last night, you will be my wife, Lin Jue. There may be a chance for my husband and wife to reunite in the future, but this time
At this moment, I have to leave." Lin Jue said softly.
Wanyan Mingyue's face was sad, she lay in Lin Jue's arms and cried for a moment, then she suddenly pushed Lin Jue's body away and said: "It's not too late, hurry up and get on the horse, or something will happen later. I have put water and dry food in your horse bag, which is enough for you."
It’s only for a few days. Within a few days, you should be able to rejoin your companions.”
Lin Jue was even more moved. Without her knowledge, Wanyan Mingyue had already made all kinds of preparations for her departure. Everything she had planned today was indeed the outcome she had planned for a long time. Although she was a Jurchen woman, she
She is a wonderful woman who acts decisively and straightforwardly, and is affectionate and righteous.
Lin Jue thought quickly for a moment and chose a route to escape. Going into the mountains was naturally a way, but although Fengtai Mountain was not big, it had steep peaks and dense forests. Even if there was a road that could go through the mountain, it would probably cost a lot of money.
It took a long time. Moreover, the Jurchens were good at moving in the mountains. They were afraid that they would be chased by their people before they could escape from the mountain. In this case, it would be safer to escape quickly from the mountain pass and rely on the power of horses.
As long as no one is blocking you at the mountain pass, you can quickly escape to the north after exiting the mountain pass.
Lin Jue told Wanyan Mingyue his considerations, and Wanyan Mingyue agreed. Of course Wanyan Mingyue knew the Jurchens' search capabilities in the mountains. To put it bluntly, for people like Lin Jue who have difficulty moving in the mountains and forests, Changbai Mountain
The Jurchens can also identify and track the fast-moving tiger and leopard beasts in the high mountains and ridges, and use very few people to track them.
He can round up and kill the prey with his strength. If Lin Jue is found to have escaped, even though the army will leave, his brother's temper will definitely send people to search for him in the mountains. In this way, Lin Jue will be even more dangerous.
The two of them had made up their minds and decided to leave from the mountain pass. Wanyan Mingyue got on his horse first and took a dozen guards to the mountain pass to investigate. After confirming that there was no one at the mountain pass, Wanyan Mingyue galloped back and urged Lin
Feeling left.
Lin Jue had already mounted his horse and was ready, and followed Wanyan Mingyue's horse to arrive outside the mountain pass. It was already dawn, and the sky had turned slightly white. Although the surrounding fields were still dim, they were slightly distinguishable. Outside the mountain pass, the hillsides were undulating, and the wilderness
Xiao Ran, except for the sound of the long grass blowing in the morning breeze, there was no sound. It seemed that there was nothing strange about it.
In the distance, in the direction of the camp, there was the faint sound of horses neighing and the sound of horns. It was obvious that the Jurchen army was preparing to leave. At this moment, it was the perfect time to escape.
"Husband, let's go quickly. I'll give you a ride to the small slope in front, so that I can see your husband for a while." Wanyan Mingyue said in a deep voice.
Lin Jue sighed and nodded, urging the horses and Wanyan Mingyue to gallop north together, galloping up a small hillside in front of them. However, when the two of them reached the halfway point of the hillside, at the top of the hillside, one after another,
The figure of the black cavalry quickly appeared against the blue-white sky. It was the figure of a large group of cavalry. The next moment, a strange whistle sounded, and hundreds of cavalry galloped down the hillside, approaching at an extremely fast speed.
Lin Jue and Wanyan Mingyue were surrounded by two people. The cavalry circled around, making strange noises, as if they had surrounded prey.
Seeing this situation, Lin Jue sighed secretly in his heart. The matter was indeed not that simple. In fact, Lin Jue had always vaguely felt that Wanyan Agu would not let his guard down so much, allowing him such a chance to escape. But Lin Jue always hoped in his heart that there would be a chance to escape.
Miracles happen. Since there is a slight chance, you must give it a try. Besides, apart from the opportunities in front of you, once you follow the army, there will be no chance.
"Hahaha, I expected it. I knew it would be like this. Lin, I must have caught him. What else can I say? The chief treats you so well and even marries Princess Jinhua.
I gave it to you, but you half-heartedly planned to defect. Hahaha, you are dead now." Amidst the harsh laughter, a black horse slowly passed through the crowd and came to Lin Jue and Wanyan Mingyue.
I realized that it was the Jurchen general named Hulu.
"Hulu, what are you doing? Are you so rude? Why don't you get out of the way?" Wanyan Mingyue scolded sharply.
Hulu smiled and bowed his hands and said: "Princess Jinhua, please forgive me for not obeying my order. I am here to arrest the traitor who defected. The princess was bewitched by him. Is she going to defect with him? If that is the case, I am afraid that even Princess Lian
I’m going to take it together too.”
Wanyan Mingyue scolded: "You are talking nonsense. We were just going out of the mountains to return to the camp, why did we escape? Hulu, I warn you, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will not spare you."
"Go back to the camp? Hahaha. Princess, the camp is in the south. You are going north. Sure enough, you have been deceived by this person named Lin. Can't you tell the difference between north and south? Hey, do you think this person named Lin has any problem?
What's so good about it? You are obsessed with him and insist on marrying him. There are many good men among our Jurchen tribe, but none of them fall in your eyes, Princess Jinhua.
What? You have to marry a foreigner. But it doesn’t matter. This guy surnamed Lin has no chance of living today. He can be killed on the spot for defecting. I will kill him today. As for you, princess, you can only make the leader angry.
Hey. Hey, I felt something was wrong yesterday. I went out to camp to play? There must be something fishy. It’s not in vain that I and my brothers stayed here for most of the night and were bitten by mosquitoes and insects. If I can kill this guy named Lin, I
I also let out a bad breath, hahaha." Hulu said with a laugh.
Ever since Lin Jue inadvertently exposed Hulu's secret possession of drinks that day, Hulu had hated Lin Jue. In addition, Lin Jue actually married Princess Jinhua, who was the object of Hulu's longing.
He was rejected, but never gave up. Lin Jue actually got married to Princess Jinhua, which made Hulu hate Lin Jue even more. After Lin Jue and Wanyan Mingyue left the camp yesterday, Hulu went to Wanyan
Aguda spoke in front of him, saying that Lin Jue must have the intention of escaping, and he was willing to lead people to block it.
Wanyan Agu was naturally suspicious, so he agreed to Hulu to take people to monitor him. Hulu actually brought two groups of people, one group quietly entered the mountain pass and hid far away in the forest, and the other group was outside the mountain pass.
There was an ambush behind the hillside. No matter Lin Jue tried to walk through the mountain or escape from the mountain pass, he could be blocked. Wanyan Aguda also gave Hulu instructions, allowing Hulu to kill Lin Jue on the spot if he really had the idea of escape.
Kill him. Wanyan Aguda just doesn’t want Lin Jue to be used by others in the future. It’s best if he can be used by himself. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a pity to kill him. As for the feelings of his sister Wanyan Mingyue, Wanyan Aguda doesn’t care.
.If Lin Jue wants to escape, it means that the girl is bewitched by him, so killing Lin Jue can make the girl wake up.
Hulu waited for most of the night and finally waited for this moment. Naturally, he was extremely excited. Just like hunting before, the feeling of finally falling into a trap is extremely wonderful. Killing Lin Jue relieved the hatred in his heart.
It’s even more satisfying.
"Young men, kill this man named Lin and chop him into meat paste." Hulu ordered sharply.
A dozen Jurchen warriors came on horseback, bared their teeth and screamed strangely. The crescent sword in their hands was flexibly hovering in their hands. Lin Jue was unarmed. Gao Muqing and others took away Lin Jue's box of bastards. It was Lin Jue's
Actively requested. Because he is deeply involved in the Jurchen army, the two bastard boxes will not work. Moreover, once Wanyan Aguda gets it, there will be a risk of leaking the secret. If Wanyan Aguda forces himself to tell the manufacturing method, it will be even worse.
Big trouble. This kind of firearm may fall into the hands of Wanyan Aguda. So at this moment, apart from the horse rein in his hand, Lin Jue only has a dagger in his boot. But how can he deal with his opponent with these?
A Jurchen soldier rushed the fastest and rode his horse to Lin Jue's head. The rotating and dancing crescent knife in his hand suddenly raised high and chopped off Lin Jue's forehead. With this knife, Lin Jue must be killed.
His head was shattered and he was dead.
"Canglanglang!" There was a crisp sound, and a cold light passed by. Amidst the screams, the Jurchen warrior fell off the horse holding his bleeding shoulder. The hand holding the meniscus knife fell on the grass.
Twitching, that was exactly one of the fallen soldier's arms.
"You dare to touch a hair of my husband, do you want to die?" Wanyan Mingyue screamed sternly, with blood dripping from the crescent knife in her hand, and her face was stern. At the critical moment, it was she who rushed forward on horseback and chopped off the Jurchen with one blow.
