The Sacrificial Dance, Meng Tian's Army Arrives at the City
"Hurry up and leave! Hurry up and leave!"
Fiendish Tu 'an soldiers were escorting a group of ragged captives.
These captives were Great Qin's soldiers and the people who had built the Great Wall.
Yi Xiaochuan was among them.
The soldiers of Tu 'an locked them in cages surrounded by walls and raised their large knives that flashed with a cold light in their hands.
"This is Yachen, the capital of Tu 'an.”
"In a few days, we will bring you into the city!”
The servants bowed their heads and did not dare to look at him.
Great Qin's soldiers endured, and their hearts were filled with anger and unwillingness.
The Tu 'an soldiers left behind to guard the place and left.
Yi Xiaochuan, who was in the cage, was very confused.
Why did something happen to him wherever he went?
First, he was made drunk by his big brother, Liu Bang, to work as a corvee to build the Great Wall. He did not expect that something would happen when he reached the Great Wall. He was captured by Tu 'an soldiers.
"I have to escape!"
The outcome of becoming a captive would not be too good. Yi Xiaochuan wanted to find an opportunity to escape.
However, Tu 'an's soldiers were extremely strict in their defense. He could not find a chance to escape at all.
A few days later, they were sent into the city by Tu 'an's soldiers.
"Hurry up! Let's go! Don't dawdle!"
Tu An's soldiers crudely escorted Yi Xiaochuan and the other captives into the city and berated,"
"All of you slaves, kneel down!”
"Don't raise your head!"
They forcefully pressed down on Yi Xiaochuan and the others 'shoulders, pinning them to the ground.
"Watch them!"
Tu An's leader ordered the soldiers.
Today was an important day, and he could not make any mistakes.
At this time, the bugle was blown, and the drums thundered. Accompanied by waves of passionate accompaniment, King Tu 'an slowly entered the arena, surrounded by General Jin and the others.
King Tu 'an sat on a chair wrapped in soft animal skin and looked down at the soldiers and slaves below. He said to General Jin, who was standing at the side,""Let's begin."
General Jin saluted King Tu 'an and then informed him loudly.
Princess Yu Shu had come of age, so she held this blessing ceremony.
Pray for good weather and peace.
"The auspicious time has arrived!"
"Welcome Flower Carriage!"
As General Jin's voice fell, a car that looked like a flower bud was carried in by dozens of Tu 'an soldiers.
The bonfire was lit, and the golden flames danced. A faint black smoke appeared.
King Tu 'an took the bow and arrow that was handed over from the side and shot an arrow into the sky.
Bang!
It was like fireworks exploding.
"Bang! Bang bang bang!"
The soldiers below beat the bronze drums, and the sounds were deafening. As they beat the bronze drums, they danced for blessings and sacrifices. The huge " flower bud " on the float suddenly unfolded at this moment, like a flower spreading its pink petals.
A figure appeared in the flower bud. She was dressed in a pink dress and her appearance was exquisite and beautiful. She was like a peach blossom fairy from the nine heavens, instantly causing the world to lose its color. She danced on the carriage and then lightly tapped the bronze drum held high by the soldiers to the sacrificial stone platform.
A dance that could topple a country.
All eyes were on Princess Yu Shu.
Yi Xiaochuan stared blankly at the graceful figure dancing on the altar.
"Is this a goddess descending to the mortal world?"
General Jin also stared at Princess Yu Shu.
He had admired Princess Yu Shu for a long time.
The dance ended.
King Tu 'an asked Princess Yu Shu to sacrifice Yi Xiaochuan and the others as captives to the gods, but the kind-hearted Princess Yu Shu would not do such a cruel thing.
She begged King Tu 'an to let the captives go.
However, not only was King Tu 'an unwilling, but the soldiers and people of Tu' an were also unwilling.
They shouted loudly as they offered the captives to the gods.
King Tu 'an released a fierce tiger, wanting to bury the captives in the tiger's mouth.
Yi Xiaochuan relied on the protagonist's luck to accidentally activate the jade pendant on his chest and scare off the ferocious tiger.
Their group of captives survived.
When Tu An's people saw that Yi Xiaochuan was able to scare off the ferocious tiger, they thought that he was extraordinary and temporarily let them off.
Yi Xiaochuan and the other captives were locked up again.
That night, Princess Yu Shu took the opportunity to beg King Tu 'an to hand over Yi Xiaochuan and the other captives to her.
King Tu 'an naturally understood Yu Shu's intention.
The kind-hearted Yu Shu probably wanted to let these captives go.
King Tu 'an, who doted on his daughter, finally agreed.
"Sigh, Yu Shu is still too kind.”
After Yu Shu left, King Tu 'an sighed.
His face was full of melancholy.
Could such kindness survive in the Great Qin Imperial Court?
"If it wasn't for the lives of Tu 'an's citizens, how could I be willing to give my daughter to Great Qin?”
King Tu 'an said as he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
General Jin, who was standing at the side, suddenly tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword.
"Your Majesty, there might be another way. We don't necessarily have to give the princess to Great Qin's Emperor.”
"At most, I'll fight them to the death!"
Fight it out?
King Tu 'an glanced at General Jin and shook his head dejectedly.
Great Qin's million soldiers.
How?
With what?
Even if they did not need Yu Shu to make a marriage alliance, the Rong Di and Xiongnu in the north would not let Tu An off.
For now, he could only rely on Yu Shu to make a marriage alliance and become a vassal of Great Qin, protecting himself from the ferocious gaze of the North's Rong Di and Xiongnu.
General Jin gritted his teeth.
"Your Majesty, I will not allow the princess to go through a marriage alliance!”
"How can the Great Qin Emperor be worthy of our Tu 'an's most beautiful princess!”
"Only the strongest warrior is worthy of the princess!”
With that, he turned around and left.
General Jin was not willing and did not want Princess Yu Shu to marry.
First, he liked Yu Shu.
Secondly, Tu An and Great Qin had been enemies for generations, and Tu An had never lowered his head. How could he be willing to lower his head to Great Qin?
He felt that he needed to think of a way to stop the marriage alliance!
King Tu 'an looked at General Jin who was leaving and sighed deeply.
He understood that General Jin admired Yu Shu.
General Jin was Tu An's strongest warrior.
He was also his favorite subject.
If possible, he also wanted General Jin to become Yu Shu's husband.
But there was no 'if'.
Yu Shu would be sent to the Great Qin Empire for a marriage alliance.
Stomp, stomp, stomp…
The heavy sound of horse hooves could be heard.
It was as if there were thousands of troops under the city.
King Tuan raised his head abruptly and looked in the direction of the city gate.
His expression was slightly flustered.
The Rong Di and Xiongnu attacked?
"Report! Over 10,000 Great Qin soldiers had gathered outside the city!”
Tu An's soldiers came to report.
"Great Qin's soldiers?"
"Great Qin's soldiers gathered so many people, what are they planning?”
King Tu 'an felt a little uneasy.
General Jin, who had just left King Tu 'an's residence, also heard the heavy sounds of hooves. He grabbed a Tu' an soldier and asked, and he found out that Great Qin's soldiers had arrived.
General Jin frowned.
What did Great Qin want to do?
"I'm Meng Tian. I'm here to bring Princess Tu An to the Great Qin Empire for a marriage alliance!”
Meng Tian's loud voice spread throughout the entire city.
The citizens of Tu 'an all looked in the direction of the city gate.
"Bring Princess Tu An to the Great Qin Empire for a marriage alliance."
General Jin's pupils trembled.
