As soon as she heard the name "Ma Yiha", Ha Ziqian's eyes turned red and she said, "Ma Yiha should be in the Silver Eagle tribe... I came to see the warrior this time just for his sake."
Hong Chen knew that a lot of things must have happened, so he said, "Sit down first, and we can talk about things slowly."
"Um."
There was a cry in Ha Ziqian's voice. She sat on the chair and took two more deep breaths before saying, "Actually, I can't stay too long. I can only keep the story short."
Hong Chen nodded: "You can just say it, I will listen carefully." If Ha Ziqian hadn't persuaded the Lord of Tamu City repeatedly before, he might have been tempted to use force. If she had any difficulties, he should help her now.
Ha Ziqian said slowly: "After Mayiha and the warriors parted ways that night, we traveled north along the Yangtze River and finally stopped at an abandoned market. The market was located in the Gobi Desert and was probably abandoned.
For more than 20 years, there was only a small oasis nearby. Mayiha and I lived there, and spent some money to buy a few lambs from a small tribe dozens of miles away, planning to start from now on.
Settle down and live the happiest life together."
Lei Feifeng then interjected: "With just two people, life must be so boring. What's the point of being happy?"
"Third brother, don't talk nonsense." Hong Chen scolded him, "If two people love each other and live together, they will naturally be happy."
"Actually, he was right." Ha Ziqian sighed heavily, "Well... I did feel very happy at the beginning, but after a while, I felt that my life was monotonous. I missed my dad
Mom, I miss my younger brothers and sisters. So I said to Mayiha, "Mayiha, can you secretly go back to the tribe and pick up my father, mother, brothers and sisters?" Mayiha was a little embarrassed at first.
, but he saw that my daily life was too boring, so he agreed."
"So Mayiha rode his horse back to the tribe and waved his whip. I stood on the Gobi and waved my sweat scarf to say goodbye to him."
When Ha Ziqian said this, she suddenly buried her head in her hands and started crying.
When Lei Feifeng heard her crying, she suddenly felt uncomfortable and said, "Why are you crying? Hey, hey, don't cry, don't cry. I don't even cry as a child, why are you crying as an adult?"
Hong Chen was startled: "Did something happen to Mayiha on his way back?"
Ha Ziqian stopped crying and shook her head: "No, there was no accident and he returned to the tribe safely. It's just..."
Ha Ziqian choked up again halfway through her words and couldn't speak anymore. Hong Chen had to wait for her mood to gradually calm down before asking, "Just what?"
"Mayiha returned to the tribe and never came back." Ha Ziqian said, "I kept waiting for him to come back in the Gobi Desert, but in the end it was not him who came... only a group of angry tribesmen came."
"Angry?" Hong Chen was surprised at first, and then understood, "Yes, you did not choose Gu Ercai or Ge Sixie, but eloped with Mayiha. They must be very angry."
"Angry? They are not just angry." Ha Ziqian's face looked sad, "There were dozens of tribesmen who came, including my father, mother, and Gulce Ge Sixie. I thought they wanted to arrest me at first.
I went back, but unexpectedly they caught me and tied me up as soon as they came up. I asked them what they wanted to do, but my mother
They said that I was an unruly woman who ran away with a man and should be thrown into the river and drowned. I was afraid and asked my father to save me. But my father said nothing. A group of them took me to the river and I cried.
"I don't want to die, I don't want to die." Then my mother said, if I want to live, I have to marry Gulce or Ge Sixie."
"So which one did you choose?"
Lei Feifeng asked. Ha Ziqian was obviously alive and must have chosen one of the two at that time.
Ha Ziqian shook her head again: "Before I spoke, Gu Erce said that he would not marry an unchaste woman like me, and would throw me into the river with my own hands. Ge Sixie stopped Gu Er.
Cai, tell everyone that he is willing to marry me and let everyone let me live."
Hong Chen was curious: "Since you are married to Ge Sixie, how come you came to Tamu City?"
"I didn't marry Ge Sixie." Ha Ziqian said, "I can't marry Ge Sixie. I married Ge Sixie. I'm sorry for Ma Yiha, I'm sorry for myself, and I'm sorry for Ge Sixie. Ge Sixie is
A warrior with a very noble character should marry a woman who loves him very much. So I refused. I said that sooner or later, Ma Yiha could find a girl like me, and Ge Sixie could also marry a woman who loved him. Although I
I don’t want to die, but I can’t let them both down.”
"Then what?" Lei Feifeng asked, "They really threw you into the river?"
"Yes." Ha Ziqian nodded with tears in her eyes, "It's just that when they were about to throw me into the river, Ge Sixie said that my body was very dirty and I couldn't die in the river on the grassland. I had to follow the river.
I have to float all the way to the Yu Kingdom and die in the Yu Kingdom. He is the son of the Khan, so everyone listened to this suggestion, so they bound my hands and feet, tied me to a wooden board, and threw me into the river."
Hong Chen was heartbroken when he heard this. They were obviously relatives in the same tribe, so why did such horrible customs still exist? In the past, it was enough not to let Ha Ziqian and Ma Yiha be together, but then they had to break them up after they were done.
Let their yin and yang never be separated.
Lei Feifeng said: "No, no, the water flows towards the east. Then you should go down the river and reach Yu State? How could you end up in Dizhou, which is farther west and further north?"
Hong Chen said: "Lao San, please don't interrupt us all the time. Let Ha Ziqian finish what he has to say."
Ha Ziqian continued: "I floated along the eastward river, floating from day to night, and from night to day. I knew that Ge Sixie asked everyone to tie me to the wooden board to let me
There was a glimmer of hope for survival, but the current in this wide and long river was fast, and I was tied to death. How could I escape? I could only hope that someone could save me, but I met some people drinking by the river.
There were two people on the horse and two boats. When they saw me like this, they all knew that I had committed a crime and no one was willing to save me... I became more and more frustrated and hungry, and my whole body was soaked in water.
I was getting wet, and my body was getting more and more uncomfortable. I thought my life was going to end on this wooden board, but finally on the third day of drifting, I met a boat going upstream. It was the people on that boat who rescued me.
Get up."
"Which ship is the Lord of Tamu City on?"
Hong Chen couldn't help but ask.
"Yes." Haziqian said, "The Lord of Tamu is a good man! The person who first discovered me at that time didn't want to save me. After seeing me, the Lord of Tamu jumped into the water and rescued me back on the boat. Listen.
When I told him the reason, he was still very angry, saying that the rules of the grassland were too pedantic and that every girl deserves to live with the person she loves."
