Chapter 4

: The World is Far Away

During the Ming Dynasty and the Northern Yuan Dynasty, wars burned all over the desert grasslands. The Northern Yuan Dynasty suffered repeated setbacks in the war, and countless soldiers were killed and injured, and suffered heavy losses. The royal nobles were in panic all day long. Under the shadow of the destruction of the country, the Northern Yuan Emperor had no choice but to accept the suggestion and used Princess Mingzhu as a bargaining chip for marriage, hoping that she would become Zhu Yuanzhang's concubine successfully, and perhaps she could win several years of rest for the Northern Yuan Dynasty. In history, this kind of marriage routine has been common, and sometimes it can indeed change the fate of a country. However, the fate of the marriage princess is usually extremely miserable, and almost no one can end up well. Hu Xiaotian secretly despised the Northern Yuan Emperor and said lightly: "Tenggemu, if you break your Khan's marriage plan, wouldn't you become a Mongolian sinner?"

Tenggemu said coldly: "When will the warriors on the grassland bow their heads to the enemy to beg for mercy? They may fight or die, that's all. What's more, the battle between the two countries is stained with blood, the deep hatred and the wide involvement are beyond imagination, and they will never become as close as brothers because of a woman. Zhu Yuanzhang is cruel and ruthless, even if he favors Mingzhu tonight, he will send troops to the north without hesitation tomorrow. Since that's the case, why should Mingzhu make sacrifices for nothing? No matter what other people think, I want Mingzhu to be by my side forever, live and die together!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang established his country, he always regarded the Northern Yuan, who had retreated back to the grassland, as a major concern and never relaxed his vigilance. In addition to constantly sending elite soldiers and powerful generals to the north, going deep into the grassland to burn, kill and loot, and destroying the root of the roots, he also divided the sons he valued into the King of Qin, King of Jin, and King of Yan, and was in charge of the northwest line and maintaining military deterrence. In the hearts of Mongolian tribes, Zhu Yuanzhang was no different from the bloodthirsty demon king.

Hu Xiaotian said slowly: "Tenggemu, I admire your courage and determination! But this place is thousands of miles away from the Mongolian grassland, and there are countless levels along the way. How can you break through the net of heaven and earth with the princess? With just one person and one sword, can you beat the millions of cavalry of the Ming army? If you don't have any subordinates to protect you, you will probably be killed by the masters of the King of Yan within three days!"

Tenggemu raised his chest and raised his belly, and said proudly: "Walking east from here for hundreds of miles is the sea, with the sky high and the sea wide, and countless islands. As long as we can board the ship and go out to sea before the King of Yan knows it, what can thousands of troops do to me?"

Hu Xiaotian nodded and said, "Borrowing through the sea? It's really a wonderful game! No wonder you endured it until now. Have you contacted the fleet and arranged a retreat?" With the wisdom of the King of Yan and the strict defense of the Ming army, it was easy to track down the Tengge wood after discovering that the princess was missing. According to common sense, after Tengge wood succeeded, he should go north and return to the grassland. Who would have thought that he would go east? The Mongols were good at inland and were good at riding and shooting, and had no chance of getting involved in water, but he chose to escape by sea, which was really unexpected.

Tenggemu whispered: "Not bad! At the latest tomorrow morning, the King of Yan will notice Mingzhu is missing, and then send people to search everywhere. I will rest for a while and then set off overnight and arrive at the agreed dock as soon as possible to meet with people. Hu Xiaotian, why don't you report me, right?"

Hu Xiaotian said: "What does it have to do with me if you are married or not? I don't want to be an official in the court, nor do I need to spend money, and I don't have to flatter the King of Yan. Tenggemu, although I don't like you being rude and rude, I respect you as a man who dares to act! Hu swears to heaven that he will never reveal your whereabouts to a third person. If he violates his oath, he will teach me that his meridians will be cut off and that all his martial arts will be ruined!" His situation is also very dangerous, and there is no need to cause trouble and do things that harm others and do not benefit oneself.

Tenggemu's heart was slightly calmed down, and he pointed his fingers and untied Princess Mingzhu's acupoints, allowing her to activate the qi and blood meridians. Princess Mingzhu's eyelashes trembled slightly, slowly opened her eyes, touched Tenggemu's gaze, screamed, opened her arms and hugged him tightly, and sobbed, crying and whispering something in Mongolian language. Tenggemu patted her back to comfort her, and replied softly. Suddenly, Princess Mingzhu's voice became sharp and high-pitched, and pushed Tenggemu away, glaring at him, her whole body as cold as ice. Tenggemu's face turned red

, stammeringly explaining something, both anxious and helpless, with a little begging in his tone. But no matter how he persuaded him, Princess Mingzhu just shook her head, her face full of frost. After a moment, the two of them argued fiercely, and no one was willing to give in. Princess Mingzhu was so excited that she suddenly took out an ancient dagger from her arms and threw it at Tenggemu's feet. Two lines of tears rolled down. Tenggemu was struck by lightning, staring at the dagger blankly, and her thick body trembled uncontrollably, obviously extremely painful and disappointed.

Although Hu Xiaotian couldn't understand Mongolian, based on the situation in front of him, it should be that Princess Mingzhu and Tengmu had a disagreement, and they were unwilling to escape with him to the point of breaking off diplomatic relations with him. As for the dagger with unique patterns, it was probably the token of the two of them. You should know that there are at least dozens of Mongolian princesses suitable for marriage. Princess Mingzhu can stand out from it and take on heavy responsibilities, and it is not just her bright and brilliant appearance! As a princess who is far away from her mother country and lacks support, you have to be in a complicated way.

Unpredictable, the extremely dangerous palace survived and completed its mission, with indiscriminate mind, wrist, and courage. Long before she set off, she had already decided to sacrifice her life for the country. Now that she entered the territory of the Ming Dynasty, Jinling was far away, how could Princess Mingzhu give up halfway and give up her mission? Tenggemu silently picked up the dagger and wiped away the dust that had just been stained. Her expression was bitter, revealing an indescribable sadness. She was clearly a lover who was truly in love, and she was clearly close to her, but a deep chasm lies between the two and could not be crossed.

Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but say, "Tenggemu, we Han people have a saying that 'A forced melon is not sweet'. Since the princess is not happy, don't force it."

Princess Mingzhu suddenly heard the stranger's voice and couldn't help but be shocked, and turned around and shouted, "Who is it? Why are you hiding in the corner sneakily?"

Hu Xiaotian shrugged and said, "I am an unknown man from the world. He just passed by by chance, so the princess doesn't have to worry about it."

Princess Mingzhu said coldly: "Lie! If you are an ordinary passerby, how could you know Tenggemu's name? How could you know my princess' identity? You and Tenggemu broke into the Yan King's camp at night and kidnapped the royal princess. What you committed was a death sentence! I advise you to return to your path, to redeem your sins, and to subdue Tengmu immediately, otherwise you will inevitably be cut into pieces."

Hu Xiaotian sighed: "Your Highness Princess, you misunderstood. I really have nothing to do with this matter."

Princess Mingzhu was not willing to believe it. She changed her tone and said, "What benefits did Tenggemu give you so much that you are so devoted? I swear that as long as you send me back to the Yan King's camp, I will reward you with ten times the reward."

Hu Xiaotian was so amused that he said in a deep voice: "Report to the princess, he is a rude figure wandering around the world. It is useless to ask for gold, silver and vulgar things. What's more, Tengge's wooden sword technique is amazing and his martial arts are far better than me. I can't do your request."
