Chapter 2630 Love and Sorrow
He casually waved out two talismans to offset the attacking thunderball, and then fell into memories again.
"Alas!" The princess is also a miserable person!
Married to a place thousands of miles away, surrounded by a group of people speaking a strange language that she couldn't understand, it took her more than a year to slowly learn the language of Xiye. The princess, on the other hand, learned the local language on the way to the marriage.
After arriving in Xiye, she was not used to the diet and living habits, and coupled with her homesickness, the princess even fell seriously ill at the beginning.
This does not include the subsequent battles. He led the army to fight for more than a year and finally defeated the invasion of Shache. It can be considered a great achievement.
Perhaps, without the princess's great victory at Zepu, it is possible that the Xiya Kingdom might have been destroyed.
"Hmph! Can building a palace for the princess offset her merits?" Lan Caijie was a little indignant.
But there was no way, the princess naturally had her own ideas and accepted this reward.
Being able to live alone in a palace of your own is a very happy thing.
Therefore, when the construction was halfway done, the princess brought Lan Caijie and Lan Caiyue with her to see the progress of the entire project. She even wanted to build a garden behind the palace to plant some plants she brought from home, and maybe she could get something out of it.
But what she didn't expect was that when she came out this time, she saw the person the princess had been thinking about day and night, her cousin.
The three of them were also a little surprised and unbelievable. In the past, my cousin, who loved cleanliness and always liked to wear moon-white or gray-white long gowns, always kept himself clean and paid great attention to his appearance, now had messy hair, dark brown sweat stains on his face, dark skin, and was dirty all over. Especially the short-sleeved shirt whose color could not be seen clearly, it was really unbelievable that it was my cousin.
When the two met, they were unable to speak for a long time because they were both extremely excited and in disbelief.
Finally, under the protection of the two sisters Lan Caijie, the princess and her cousin were finally able to sit down and have a good talk.
I learned that my cousin could not resist the longing for his love after the princess arranged the marriage for him, so he left the Central Plains, gave up everything he had, and set out for the Western Regions with a few of his followers.
However, he did not expect that after encountering several bandit attacks and a war on the way, he was left with only one follower. He also lost contact with the man during a conflict with bandits and no one knew whether he was dead or alive.
Fortunately, my cousin was a lucky man and met a group of merchants coming to Xiye. After going through untold hardships, he finally arrived in Xiye.
However, they did not expect to encounter a war between Xiye and Shache, and they also heard that the princess personally led the troops to the battlefield, so they could only wait in Xiye City.
In the end, although they won the victory, they were unable to see the princess. They only saw the princess on horseback when they entered the city.
Later, he heard that King Chehe was going to build a palace for the princess to honor her merits, so the cousin used the little money he had with him to bribe the construction team, and only then was he able to join the team and participate in the construction of the palace.
Otherwise, how could he, a man of unknown origin, build a palace?
The two expressed their friendship to each other, but due to etiquette, they ultimately remained restrained and nothing happened.
Finally, the princess and her cousin agreed on the next time they would meet, and then returned to the palace.
From then on, the princess and her cousin had the opportunity to meet and had endless things to talk about.
Fortunately, they knew their identities, so they all kept to the bottom line and did not cross it.
This also made sister Lan Caijie feel relieved.
The palace was built, and the princess found her former lover. Although they could not have sex, she could still relieve her emotions by meeting the person she wanted to see thousands of miles away and talking to each other. So the princess became happy, and everything was going in a good direction.
However, at this time, the princess discovered that she was pregnant with King Chehe's father.
Therefore, the princess made up her mind to let her cousin return to the Central Plains. Staying in Xiye not only had no future, but also no results.
Although I am extremely reluctant, I still have to face the reality in the end.
Therefore, when they met for the last time, the princess gave her cousin the gold and silver she had prepared, hoping that he could return to the Central Plains with these things.
However, what he didn't expect was that someone told the truth, saying that the princess was having a secret meeting with her lover. King Chehe, who came rushing over, saw it and was very angry.
He was unwilling to listen to the princess's explanation and wanted to kill his cousin on the spot.
The guards who followed also drew their weapons and prepared to attack.
As a last resort, the princess, her sister Lan Caijie and her cousin were forced to defend themselves.
As a result, the king accidentally killed the princess in order to block the sword that was stabbed at his cousin, and in great grief and anger, the cousin also killed the king. Later, the cousin was killed by the king's guards.
Lan Caijie and Lan Caiyue have practiced martial arts for many years and are no longer the weak women they were back then. They fought with several guards and fought back and forth. However, due to their identities, they did not kill them, but held on to several guards tightly. But they did not expect such a result. In the end, they fought hard to kill all the guards, carried the dead lady and cousin, left the palace, and headed west of Xiye. There was an oasis they found when Zepu was fighting, where they could bury the princess.
Because, when the princess passed by this oasis when she won the battle, she once said: When I die, I hope to be buried here, facing the east. I hope that after death my soul can return to the Central Plains, to my parents, and to have my cousin's company.
Now, my cousin is pregnant, all we need is a place to bury him.
Therefore, the oasis that the princess once mentioned became the first choice.
There is a large lake in the oasis, and the water is unfathomable. The oasis is also rich in vegetation and has some gathering places.
However, since this place is in the desert and it is not easy to establish a country, it was ignored.
On the other hand, due to the sudden death of King Chehe, there was chaos in the country for a while. After receiving the news, Shache Kingdom immediately sent troops to defeat Xiye Kingdom and changed the royal flag on the city wall overnight!
However, after a few years, the son of King Chehe won again, drove out the people of Shache, and restored the Kingdom of Xiya.
But these things were no longer relevant to Lan Caijie and Lan Caiyue. They traveled day and night, and finally reached the oasis on the third day.
Finally, they chose a place in the oasis, on the edge of a cliff with a lake, far away from the oasis gathering place, to bury the two people.
Although they could not sleep in the same bed in life, they could be buried in the same grave in death, which fulfilled the final wish of the eldest lady and her cousin.
The two looked at the grave, feeling sad.
I didn't expect that after traveling thousands of miles to get here, the final result would be just a handful of soil.
Moreover, what should the two sisters do? How should they live in the future? Where is their home?
Ever since they met the eldest daughter, they have always regarded her as their future and wanted to accompany her until death. However, they did not expect that the eldest daughter has passed away while the two sisters are still alive.
Finally, the two decided to return to Central Plains and inform the old man of the eldest daughter's death.
Since the eldest daughter died, they no longer called her Princess, because Princess was the title that the eldest daughter held when she was alive, and after her death, they preferred to call her the eldest daughter.
However, the two of them did not expect that after they arrived at the oasis, they were targeted by a group of people in the oasis because of their looks.
This group of people were horse bandits from the Western Regions and were extremely brutal. However, they had never seen women from the Central Plains as beautiful as Lan Caiyue and Lan Caijie, so naturally they would not let them go.
They only came to their senses when a large number of horse bandits surrounded the two of them.
After hearing the bandits' shouts, they understood that if they didn't fight hard, they would become their playthings.
Therefore, the two of them were not afraid of life or death. After all, the eldest lady was already dead, and they had nothing to linger on, so they went straight to fight the horse bandits.
After a fierce fight, they killed more than ten horse bandits, which also surprised the bandits. They did not expect that two women could be so powerful.
But because of this, the horse bandits could not let the two go. In the end, the horse bandits were outnumbered and the two were defeated. After being seriously injured, they nodded to each other, turned around and jumped into the big lake behind them.
That is, after jumping into the lake, the two men fainted due to their serious injuries. They sank to the bottom of the lake but were sucked away by a secret hole and entered an underground river. When they finally woke up, they found themselves in an underground space.
Moreover, the two of them found a cave left by a cultivator in this place. They obtained the inheritance of cultivation and some cultivation resources. The jade pendant they are wearing now was obtained at that time. There are two pieces, one of which is larger, and the one of which is smaller.
From the messages left by cultivators, we know that this place was actually discovered accidentally by a dead cultivator, and it was discovered thousands of years ago.
There are treasures in this place, but because the treasures are guarded by ancient alien species, after he discovered the treasures, he fought with the ancient alien species for a long time. Unexpectedly, although he won the battle, he was stung and poisoned by the ancient alien species, and his life would not last long.
Therefore, the cultivator could only seal this place. After all, there were ancient alien species inside, and he wanted to prevent later generations from being stung by them.
Then he died, leaving behind some things, waiting for the right person.
Upon learning that there was a treasure, the two sisters were naturally a little excited.
Since they obtained the method of cultivation, they realized that there are such powerful people in this world and such a method of cultivation.
The two sisters suddenly found motivation to live again.
I just want to heal my wounds and then look for the treasure.
