In the eyes of Dunwu and others, no matter how noble Xia Houhui is or how beautiful he is, as long as he becomes a prisoner, he is just a trophy. At best, it is a relatively valuable trophy. There is Princess Qinghe in front, a former general who conquered the south.
What does her daughter mean? Since you like her, just accept her, why bother?
However, in Wei Ba's eyes, he cannot be so free and easy. Just as he refuses to kill people casually, he cannot treat a woman like an animal, even if the woman is a prisoner. He can ignore Xia Houhui's noble status,
But it cannot erase basic human nature.
So although he knew that Xia Houhui had lowered his head, he still couldn't do anything he wanted. He put his arms around Xia Houhui's waist and smelled the faint body fragrance of Xia Houhui in his nose. He thought about various sexual scenes in his mind, but
There was no further frivolity. This made the nervous Xia Houhui secretly relieved, and finally he was not so ashamed that he jumped off a cliff and committed suicide.
Xia Houhui didn't dare to look at Wei Ba, and she was too embarrassed to look at other people. She just lowered her head and looked at her toes. In order to avoid touching Wei Ba's feet, she tried hard to raise her toes, so that when she dismounted,
His two legs had lost all feeling, and with a cry of "ouch", he sat down on the ground.
Ling Ding dismounted and galloped over. Before she could arrive, Wei Ba had already dismounted and helped Xia Houhui up. He asked with concern: "Miss Xiahou, what's wrong? Did you twist your foot?"
"No, it's nothing." Xia Houhui hung half of his body on Wei Ba, but still couldn't take a step. The slightest movement made his legs feel like needles and pain, and his face changed color in pain. "My...legs
Numb."
"Oh." Wei Ba breathed a sigh of relief, reluctantly handed her over to Lingdang, and rushed forward to make arrangements for today's camping trip.
"Girl, I really want to kill that kid." Lingdang rubbed Xia Houhui's legs and said, "He did it on purpose. Ziwu Valley can't ride horses at all, but he insists on us riding horses."
"Shut up!" Xia Houhui's voice was low but very stern: "I know your loyalty, but this is my decision, how can I allow you to interrupt? Wait carefully, or you can go back now."
Ling Ding pouted, not daring to say anything more.
Xia Houhui saw him and breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't even think about it. What can I do if I return to Luoyang? My innocence has been ruined. I have not been humiliated enough. Do I want to bring shame to my family? If I follow him, even if I am a concubine,
It doesn’t count as humiliating me.”
"But if you go to Sima's house, you will be the head wife."
"Sima family? Huh!" Xia Houhui turned her head and said nothing more. Maybe it was because her legs hurt, maybe she felt aggrieved, her eyes became moist, and her tears filled with tears. The reason why she made up her mind was that she would rather commit herself to Wei Ba
, and refused to return to Luoyang, just because
Those words Peng Xiaoyu said, and the nightmare of the three horses in the same cage. Master Sima has a different ambition. If she marries into the Sima family, there will be no good results. Rather than having difficulty in being a human being, it is better to take this opportunity to escape from that dilemma.
, maybe you can get unexpected gains.
"What's wrong, girl? Your leg hurts so much?" Wei Ba arranged the camp and happened to come over. He saw Xia Houhui with tears in his eyes. He looked at the bulging bell and thought that this girl is not good at martial arts and has no weight on her hands.
, it must have hurt Xia Houhui from the pinch. "Well...if it's convenient, I can rub it for you?"
"Do you think it's convenient?" Lingdang raised her head and said angrily.
Wei Ba rolled his eyes and felt that what he said seemed unreliable, so he had to cover up by rubbing his hands, turned and walked away.
Xia Houhui endured the pain and cried with tears: "Join the army and stay."
"What's the matter?" Wei Ba, who had just walked not far, stopped immediately.
Xia Houhui stood up holding on to the bell. Although his legs were still very numb, he could barely stand. "Thank you for joining the army to rescue the siege. Otherwise... I really don't know what to do."
"Well, I was negligent. I didn't think of these details." Wei Ba smiled sheepishly.
Seeing Wei Ba in such embarrassment, Xia Houhui couldn't help laughing and was no longer so nervous. She looked at the book in Wei Ba's hand: "Um... are you still reading Yanzi when you join the army?"
Wei Ba looked at the book in his hand and nodded: "Yeah, I'm still reading." He suddenly realized that he had exposed his thoughts again, and quickly added: "It's quite interesting, it will relieve my boredom."
Lingdang curled her lips and turned her head disdainfully. Xia Houhui glared at her and pushed her gently: "Go get me some hot water, I want to wash my face."
Lingdang looked at her in surprise, understood what she meant, and left reluctantly.
Wei Ba smiled awkwardly: "It seems that your maid is quite hostile to me."
"She is just eager to protect her master. Please forgive me for joining the army." Xia Houhui moved a step, screamed again in pain, and was on the verge of falling. Wei Ba quickly caught up and held her arm: "Be careful, girl. It's better to sit down for a while."
Bar."
Xia Houhui carefully sat down and looked up at Wei Ba: "Thank you for joining the army. Joining the army, I can't help with other matters. I know a little bit about writing. If there is anyone who can help me, please join the army."
Just ask."
"Definitely, definitely." Wei Ba said with a smile, but he was thinking to himself, I really don't dare to trouble you about the writing. I am considered a person now, and this time I am responsible for assisting Wu Yi in sending soldiers to Fangling.
How can I let you know the details of a big event? Although you may not be able to spread the word if you know it, it's better to be careful.
Xia Houhui had already expected Wei Ba's perfunctory behavior, so she didn't care. She changed the subject and said, "Join the army. You can sit down. It's not appropriate for you to stand while I sit down."
"Haha, you are out on the march, how can you show so much decency?" Wei Ba said, but sat down opposite Xiahou Hui. He fiddled with the book in his hand, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "Miss Xiahou, actually...
…You don’t need to force yourself so much, I told you that you can return to Luoyang soon.”
Xia Houhui bit her lip, looked at the bonfire that had just risen in the distance, and looked at Wei Ba, who had his head lowered and did not even dare to look at her, and her mood gradually calmed down. She thought for a while, mustered up the courage to say: "
If I go back to Luoyang, don’t I have to come back?”
"Why do you want to come back?"
"Didn't you say that you want to force me, the great Wei Dynasty, to marry you?"
The one appointed by His Majesty the Emperor, with your current status, can only be like me."
Xia Houhui spoke calmly, but her heart was pounding with nervousness. In the past ten years of her life, she had never spoken like she did today, and she would actually ask a man to accept her. This was something she had never imagined.
It was something she had never thought of. At this moment, she could only encourage and cheer herself up in her heart.
Everything is for the Wei Dynasty, everything is for my Xiahou clan.
Wei Ba was dumbfounded. Then he remembered the joke he had made and couldn't help but laugh: "That's a joke. Since my father is guarding Guanzhong, how can he make peace with your Wei State? Doesn't that mean he has become a foreigner?"
Xia Houhui sighed, turned his head, and looked at the deep valley: "So, I really have no way to go."
Wei Ba asked in surprise: "Why did the girl say this?"
"Joining the army, why do you ask questions knowingly?" Xia Houhui lowered his head, tears falling from his eyes. "Since I have become your prisoner, even if I return to Luoyang, how can I prove my innocence? Could it be that joining the army requires me to be rude to others?
What? Even if I am willing to do this, how can I make people believe it? The Sima family has inherited the etiquette and righteousness, how can someone like me enter his family? Even if his family does not dare to break off the engagement, how can I have the dignity to remarry? "
Wei Ba rolled his eyes and sighed. He originally thought that Xia Houhui took the initiative to approach him because he had other ideas. Now it seems that she also has her own helplessness. If there is no better way out, she may not do this.
"So, it's me who harmed the girl." Wei Ba smiled wryly at himself: "Girl, if you only follow me for this reason, then I'd better send you to Chengdu and hand you over to Mrs. Xiahou."
"Of course it's not just this reason." Xia Houhui raised his head and wiped away his tears with the corner of his sleeve: "Actually, there is another reason why I don't want to go back to Luoyang or marry Master Sima."
Wei Ba looked at her quietly.
"You...do you know that since Emperor Wu, I, the Great Wei Dynasty, have spared no effort to suppress Sima Yi and his son?"
Wei Ba frowned and thought of a legend. He couldn't help but be curious. Could it be that the prophecy of three horses in the same trough really existed? He laughed and said, "It is an ancient and modern example that monarchs are suspicious of capable ministers."
"It seems that I feel the same way when I join the army." Xia Houhui said: "Then what do you think I should do if I marry into the Sima family?"
Wei Ba nodded and said nothing more. As Xia Houhui said, he felt the same way. The dangers faced by the Wei family were no less than those faced by Sima Yi. Like Xia Houhui, he was in it and could not help himself.
Hui can still escape, he
Where to escape? Faced with a strong opponent, he had no choice but to rush forward and fight for the right to survive with all his strength. The girl in front of him was extremely smart and skilled in maneuvering. Maybe she could really help him, a self-taught monk who was a monk in the process.
half-baked.
"We really have the same disease." Wei Ba sighed seriously, stretched out his hand to cover Xia Houhui's hand, and patted it gently: "Then let us two poor people who have the same disease help each other and keep each other warm."
Xia Houhui's hand moved, and he instinctively wanted to pull it out, but after thinking about it, he held back. Wei Ba felt Xia Houhui's subtle movements in his hand, and couldn't help but smile. Just as he was about to take further action, heavy footsteps came from beside him.
, the bell was carrying a ladle of hot water, and came over in a hurry, shouting from a distance: "Girl, the water is here, be careful, it's hot, it's hot!"
Although he knew that the bell did not dare to burn him, Wei Ba still jumped up instinctively, jumping three feet high. He suddenly pointed behind the bell and shouted: "Savage!"
Seeing that Ling Dang had scared Wei Ba away, the proud smile just bloomed. When he heard the word "savage", he screamed in fright and threw the wooden scoop. Huo turned around and pulled out the long sword from his waist.
His face turned pale, and he stood ready, saying repeatedly: "Where are the savages? Where are the savages?"
Wei Ba laughed loudly and walked away. Not far away, Dunwu and others couldn't help laughing wildly when they saw Ling Dang's embarrassed appearance.
Looking at Wei Ba's back, Xia Houhui was stunned for a while, then couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
