Chapter 30: Yuchi's Choice

[Please vote!].













In front of Princess Yicheng's big tent, Yuchi Wan sat alone on a big rock, her back seemed a little lonely. She led dozens of soldiers to protect the princess's safety. At this time, the tent was very quiet. Yuchi Wan remembered what Yang Yuanqing said to her during the day. She seemed to see her elderly and staggering figure, and her heart felt like a needle-like pain.

"what's on your mind?"

At some point, Princess Yicheng, wearing a white dress, suddenly appeared behind her, and Yuchi Wan was so scared that she stood up quickly, "Princess, why are you here?"

Princess Yicheng smiled sweetly and sat down slowly on the big stone. She glanced at Yuchi Wan. If it weren't for Yang Yuanqing telling her that this was a female soldier, it would be hard for her to see that Yuchi Wan was a woman with thick and dark skin and a man-like manner. No wonder she could be in the crowd of men for five years without being discovered. Princess Yicheng couldn't help but sigh in secret. As a woman, she could not be a woman. Isn't this a kind of sadness?

"You sit down!"

Princess Yicheng patted Dashi beside her, "I know you are a woman."

"Is General Yang telling you?" Yuchi Wan sat down, feeling a little uneasy.

Princess Yicheng nodded, "He told me."

She smiled again and looked at Yuchi Wan, "Your name is Yuchi Wan, right!"

"But in the army, my name is Yuchi Dun, which is my father's name."

"You are a real heroine. Sometimes I wish I could step on a war horse like a man, unsheathed my sword, and die on the battlefield for me in the Great Sui Dynasty. Unfortunately, this is just my dream. I always think that women will not be welcomed on the battlefield."

Princess Yicheng's eyes became very bright, and she stared at Yuchi Wan, "But you erased the weakness of women. You let me know that women can actually fight on the battlefield."

"Princess, sometimes, I'm also very weak."

Yuchi Wan sighed softly, and endless sadness surged in her eyes. She seemed to say to herself: "Many times, I also hope that I can be like a real woman, wearing a long skirt I like, sticking my favorite silk flowers on my forehead, dreaming of having a sedan chair to marry me. If I have another choice, I will not choose to join the army again. Princess, you won't understand the pain."

Yuchi Wan spread her palms and looked at the calluses on her hands with some sadness. "Five years ago, my hands were white and smooth, but now they are black and thick, strong and powerful, and they are almost no different from their companions' hands. They never thought that I would be a woman."

Princess Yicheng gently held her hand and felt that her hands were really rough and powerful. She didn't look like a weak woman at all. She couldn't help but feel sympathy for Yuchi Wan.

"Yuchi, how old are you this year?"

"I'll be twenty next month."

The two of them were silent for a moment, and Princess Yicheng suddenly laughed and asked in a low voice: "Tell me, do you like your General Yang?"

Yuchi Wan's face suddenly turned red, and then she shook her head gently, "At the beginning, I liked him a little bit, but I spent too long together and were too familiar with each other, this feeling disappeared. Many times, I think he is my brother, but in fact he is one year younger than my brother. I watched him grow up. Five years ago, he was as tall as me, but now he is half a head taller than me, and he is so strong, I feel like watching my brother grow up."

Although Yuchi Wan denied it, Princess Yicheng still used her sensitive intuition to capture the deep emotions in Yuchi Wan's heart. She should have liked Yang Yuanqing, but because Yang Yuanqing is younger than her, she dared not admit it in her heart.

"But you are already twenty years old. Haven't you ever thought about your marriage?" Princess Yicheng asked curiously again.

Yuchi Wan shook her head, "I don't want to get married in this life."

She looked up at the hazy night sky, with tears flashing in her eyes, "When I feel lonely, I will die in the battlefield. I ask Yuanqing to take my ashes back to my hometown."

Princess Yicheng used her unique sensitivity to women. She felt the contradiction and sadness in Yuchi Wan's heart, and felt that there was another secret hidden in her heart. It was this secret that prevented her from getting married, so Princess Yicheng couldn't ask in depth.

When she thought of her life experience, she couldn't help but feel sad and sighed softly, "Actually, I don't want to get married either."

"Why?"

Yuchi Wan looked at her strangely, "You are the princess of the Great Sui Dynasty, now Turkic Kedun, do you think...?"

Princess Yicheng shook her head gently, "I never thought I would marry a Hu people in the grassland. Just because I am a royal woman, my fate was destined to be born. Yuchi, you don't understand the rules of the Turks. If Rangan dies, I have to marry his son. If his son dies, I have to marry his grandson. Women on the grassland are always just men's property. If I can choose, I would rather not be this princess and be a commoner in the Han family."

Tears unknowingly emerged from Princess Yicheng's eyes. She wiped away the tears in her eyes and forced a smile: "No one can talk to me about my heart. Yuchi, although this is our first time meeting, I feel like you are like my sister. Today I am really happy. I haven't talked to people like this for a long time."

Yuchi Wan was full of sympathy for Princess Yicheng. She always thought that the noble princess was a fairy living in the clouds, but she did not expect that their fate was even more miserable than that of ordinary people. Yuchi Wan bit her lips gently. She seemed to be making a decision, but she was reluctant to make up her mind.

When she saw Princess Yicheng's eyes full of expectations, she resolutely made up her mind, "Princess, I will go home to visit relatives. When I come back, I will be the princess's guard."

Princess Yicheng's eyes became joyful, but she was still a little worried, "But... Will General Yang agree?"

Yuchi Wan nodded, "He will definitely agree. I understand what he meant when he sent me."





















Fat fish didn't expect that his other task was to go into the water, and it was to go into the water at night. He was worried all the way. What should he do if the water snakes bit him while the night was dark?

It is undeniable that the snake that Fat Fish is most afraid of in this life. When he was eight years old, he didn't know that the murderous bastard threw a snake on his neck. The slippery fear made him unforgettable for his whole life. When he was twelve years old, he once went ashore to buy wine for his father and met an artist who played with snakes. Someone threw money over, but he smashed the wine bottle and fainted locally.

The fat fish was wearing a wooden box on its head, swimming slowly in the lake, holding a sharp dagger in his hand, and nervously observing the situation on the water surface. At this time, the snake was more deadly to him than the Turks.

The wooden box was nailed very strongly, with pine resin coated in the gaps, and two layers of oil paper were laid with water. There were bows and arrows and tinder oil in the wooden box. After half an hour, he swam near the Turkic camp and hid under a weeping willow. In early spring, the willow branches sprouted and the branches were dense, which could block the Turkic people's view. More importantly, there were fewer water plants here.













The camps of the Western Turks were noisy and lively, and the main tent in the middle was brightly lit. Two burly men were fighting in the tent. On a wide Hu couch in the tent, three important figures sat cross-legged. Asanabhan, Asanachilifa and Xue Qiluo, the son of Xueyantuo's tribe, drank while discussing the tasks assigned to them by Datou.

Datou was in poor health and could not withstand the cold wind at night. As soon as it was dark, he went back to his tent and lay down early. He was seriously injured by Yang Yuanqing's ejaculation. He lost a lot of fun in his life.

Ashnabohan visited Shishuhu again in the afternoon, and he brought back important news.

"Rangan has already made a clear reply to us. He refused to kill the envoy of the Sui Dynasty. From this we can see that Rangan really wanted to ride two horses at the same time. Khan meant that not only wanted to kill the princess of the Sui Dynasty, but Changsun Sheng also wanted to kill them together, forcing Rangan to break with the Sui King."

Asuna Bohan is Datou's third brother and is relatively thin. Asuna Boli, who was shot and killed by Yang Yuanqing five years ago, is his son. His plenipotentiary representative of the signing of the contract this time, Datou did not come forward.

Ashinashi Lifa, who was sitting opposite him, was the son of Datou's second brother. On the contrary, he was nearly seven feet tall, with a tiger back and a bear waist, and in his early twenties, he was the most famous general of the Western Turks. He did not participate in the battle with the Sui army five years ago. In that battle, Datou Khan was shot and the Golden Wolf-Headed King Banner was taken away, which made him feel uneasy for five years. Until this morning, he finally met Yang Yuanqing, the enemy of Datou Khan. He had been thinking about how to cut off Yang Yuanqing's head and give it to Khan to make a urinal for him.
