Su Mani was actually blown up by Song Dayan's stick, and the things inside exploded like paste, and he couldn't die anymore. In an instant, the battle in the valley seemed to be paused, and the shouts, shouts, and weapons clashing all disappeared, leaving only the whirring valley wind and the flying eagles above the glacier circling leisurely.

A group of black-robed and white-robed warriors stared blankly at Sumani's corpse, which had half of his head rotten, and was at a loss for a moment, while Babur was surprised and delighted, and his hand holding the knife trembled slightly, probably too excited.

"Kill him and avenge Prince Sumani." At this time, those black-robed dead soldiers and white-robed guards finally reacted, and they didn't know which one roared, and instantly everyone rushed to Song Dayan with full anger.

Song Dayan was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and after pulling out the arrow, half of his arm was soaked with blood at this moment, but he was not afraid, and laughed fiercely with a knife in his left hand: "Come on, Lao Tzu is enough to kill one, and you can earn money by killing two!" ”

Seeing that Song Dayan was about to be chopped into meat sauce by dozens of weapons, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves coming quickly, boom ...... A series of strings like cracked silks, sharp arrows shot like raindrops, and the dozen black-robed dead soldiers and white-robed warriors who rushed to the front were shot and killed on the spot.

Song Dayan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly turned his head to look, only dozens of cavalry were galloping in the direction of the valley, these people were very good at riding and archery, while galloping on horseback, while firing bows and arrows, when they arrived close, the warriors under the command of Sumani had been shot and killed.

The cavalry galloped close and turned over and fell off his horse, and the leader galloped quickly towards Babur, and when he saw that the latter was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Allah willing, Your Highness is safe and sound!" ”

Babur patted his shoulder and said, "Brother Us, you're here at last." ”

The man named Us, who also looked like a Persian, said apologetically: "There is a collapse on the other side of the river valley, and it was delayed for a long time, so the subordinates are late, fortunately, His Highness is fine, otherwise the subordinates will die and will not be redeemed, right......"

Babur interrupted Uss with a light cough and sighed, "Sumani himself is here!" ”

Wu Si was stunned for a moment, his gaze quickly swept over Song Dayan, and asked, "Sumani...... He actually chased and killed him so far, where is he now? ”

Babur pointed at Song Dayan and said, "I was killed by this Song Dayan brother." ”

Wusi's eyes lit up, and he quickly ran to Sumani's body to check it, and after confirming that the deceased was indeed Sumani, he couldn't help but show joy, picked up the cooked copper stick and walked to Song Dayan, and praised: "This brother is so strong, I'm afraid this copper stick is fifty or sixty pounds." ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Song's big eyes, this person can pick up his cooked copper stick with one hand, it seems that his arm strength is not weak, he put the Damascus treasure knife into the sheath, and then took the cooked copper stick from Wusi's hand, and asked lightly: "Who are you?" Babur's men? ”

Uss was stunned again, because Song Dayan spoke Ming Chinese, and he first saw that Song Dayan's eyes were blue, and thought that he was also a Persian.

Babur hurriedly introduced: "Brother Us, Brother Song Dayan is the bodyguard of the king's family, Brother Big Eye, his name is Us, he is a friend of Prince Ben, and he is specially here to answer him." ”

Song Dayan couldn't help but secretly wonder, although he didn't know much Persian, but Persian is the most widely spoken language in Central Asia, for example, the official language of the upper class of the Mughal Dynasty is also Persian, and after more than a year in this language environment, even people who have no language talent can speak a few "bulk" daily words.

So just now Usi called himself a "subordinate" in front of Babur, Song Dayan still understood it, but at this time Babur said that Usi was his "friend", which is strange, you must know that the Persian hierarchy is even more serious than that of the Ming Dynasty, and there are even a large number of slaves, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a semi-slave and semi-feudal society.

However, Song Dayan was a rough man, he just felt a little strange, and he didn't think about going over to investigate, just at this time Wang Cuiqiao and Erniu walked back, they should have seen safety, so they didn't continue to flee to the mountain.

"Wang, are you alright? Makes you scared! Babur immediately stepped forward and asked with concern.

Wang Cuiqiao shook her head and said softly: "The little girl is fine, but Your Highness, you are injured, hurry up and bandage it." ”

Babur pretended to be relaxed and said: "It's just a skin injury, it's not in the way, this time thanks to Brother Big Eye, oh, I almost forgot, Brother Big Eye was hit by an arrow, come on, quickly bandage Brother Big Eye and treat his wounds." ”

Soon, Song Dayan and Er Niu's wounds were bandaged, both of them were rough and thick-skinned, but they could stand it, but those veterans were a little miserable, originally sixteen people, seven died, three were seriously injured, the rest were all lightly injured, and the three seriously injured did not survive, and died one after another in less than half a day, the temperature on this plateau is low, the air is thin, and the physique is weak and difficult to endure at all, not to mention the seriously injured?

It is said that Xu Jin arranged a total of eighteen old pawns for Wang Cuiqiao as guards, and in the past three years, two old pawns have died of accidental illness, and now ten have died at one time, leaving only six people.

After choosing a place on the side of the mountain to bury the ten veterans, Wang Cuiqiao couldn't help but tear a handful of tears sadly, and her heart was full of guilt. Although these old soldiers volunteered to accompany the escort at the beginning, and they were also given a heavy reward of ten taels of silver per month, they died in a foreign country for their own sake after all, not to mention that after more than three years of getting along, everyone has long been like family.

The more Wang Cuiqiao thought about it, the more sad she became, and unwrapped the densely wrapped headcloth, revealing a green silk hair, as well as that beautiful face, which instantly dazzled Babur and Uss and others!

It's no wonder that even Xu Jin, who has been a man for two lifetimes, admits that Wang Cuiqiao is the most beautiful woman he has ever seen, the only woman who can score ninety-five points in appearance, her beauty can be intoxicating!

"Allah, there are such stunners in the world, no wonder His Highness Babur is so fascinated by her." Uss couldn't help but exclaim inwardly.

At this time, I saw Wang Cui standing in front of the tombs of a group of old soldiers, the valley wind blew her green silk, her beaded lips opened lightly, and she sang: "Youth is thanked, and the sun is shining." Spring is full of energy, and everything is gone. There is no escape from the darkness, and there is no escape. The Soul Returns! Far away. The soul is back! No east, no west, no south, no north, only ......"

After singing this song "Conjuring", Wang Cuiqiao once again shed tears on his clothes, Er Niu and others couldn't help crying, even the Persian warriors who couldn't understand Ming Chinese were sad, this song is really infectious!

Wang Cuiqiao's talent in music and rhythm is extremely high, after more than three years of travel, her experience in music and rhythm has become more and more profound, and her singing skills are more and more perfect.

After the sound of the song, the four fields were silent, Wang Cuiqiao took the wine bag in the hand of the maid Qiu Yan, poured all the wine on the ground, and cried: "Uncles and brothers, Qiao'er has taken you home, and the soul has returned!" ”

"Brothers, go home together! Go home! The six old pawns tore their throats and shouted, echoes echoing through the valley.

Babur sighed, walked in front of Wang Cuiqiao and said softly: "Miss Cuiqiao, people can't be resurrected after death, let's mourn!" ”

Wang Cuiqiao turned around to wipe away her tears, wrapped her head cloth tightly, and then turned around and said: "Your Royal Highness Prince Babur, thanks to your care for the past year, now that you have entered the territory of the Yarkand Khanate, I don't bother you to send it far, so it is better to leave it alone!" ”

Babur's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly shook his head and said: "Although this place has entered the territory of the Yarkand Khanate, it is still thousands of miles away from the capital of Daming, and now there are not many of your guards left, and the big eyes and the Erniu brothers are also seriously injured, how can this prince rest assured that you will go on the road alone, or let this prince give you another ride." ”

Wang Cuiqiao couldn't help but hesitate when he heard this, although the Yarkand Khanate was not a hostile country of the Ming Dynasty, but it was difficult to ensure that there were no bandits or robbers on the road, and now there were only six old pawns left, and everyone was injured, if there was an accident, it would really be a catastrophe.

"Alas, it's all to blame on this prince, if it wasn't for this prince inviting the king to Persia, this kind of thing wouldn't have happened, Cuiqiao girl, let this prince give you another ride, at least send you to Jiayuguan, to the realm of the Ming Dynasty, this prince can rest assured." Babur said sincerely.

Qiu Yan hurriedly echoed: "Miss, for the sake of safety, let's let His Royal Highness Prince Babur escort us for a ride." ”

Wang Cuiqiao glanced at the old soldiers who were all injured, and had to say helplessly: "Okay, then it will trouble His Royal Highness the Prince, but you don't need to send it to Jiayuguan, just go to Kashgar." ”

Babur said happily: "Don't bother, let alone send it to Kashgar, as long as Miss Cuiqiao is willing, Babur is also willing to be a slave and a servant for the rest of his life." ”

Here again, Wang Cuiqiao was very speechless, and said solemnly: "Your Royal Highness Prince Babur, Cuiqiao is already a married woman, please don't say these words again, otherwise Cuiqiao will have to let you leave." ”

Babur smiled awkwardly: "It's abrupt, don't blame the king." ”

At this time, Wu Si walked over, glanced at Wang Cuiqiao with a complicated expression, and said, "Your Highness Babur, it's almost dark, we have to leave here immediately, otherwise the night will be very sad." ”

Babur nodded, and then introduced to Wang Cuiqiao: "Wang, his name is Wusi, my friend, he came from Kashgar to meet us, and he is very familiar with the road. ”

Wang Cuiqiao glanced at Wusi, and said with a blessing: "Thank you, Brother Wusi." ”

"Hehe, the king is polite, just call me Us, I've heard of your name for a long time, and when I saw it today, I was shocked!" Uss said in Ming Chinese, which turned out to be very authentic.

A hint of surprise flashed in Wang Cuiqiao's eyes, and after a few words of greeting to each other, they went on the road, walking along the river all the way to the northeast.

Out of the valley, the terrain became lower and flatter, and before dark, everyone finally came to a village and settled down.

Late at night, a bright moon hangs high, and the moon on the plateau appears particularly large and bright, as if within reach.

Babur dodged out, and Uss seemed to be waiting outside, and the two walked out of the courtyard without saying a word, until they came to a stop by a stream. This creek is formed by glacial meltwater on the plateau, the water quality is clear, flowing and flowing, and the bright moon is reflected in it, broken into tens of thousands!

With a plop, Uss knelt on the ground without warning and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, your subordinates should die, your subordinates are late, and they almost caused an accident to His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Babur stood by the stream with his hands behind his back, stared at the broken moon in the stream with a cold face, and said coldly: "You really deserve to die, if it weren't for that Song Dayan today, I'm afraid that this prince would have died at the hands of Sumani." ”

Us's face turned pale, and he knelt on the ground and did not dare to speak.

After a long time, Babur said coldly: "I think there is a reason for the incident, I will spare you this time, if there is a mistake next time, then don't blame Prince Ben for being ruthless, get up!" ”

"Thank Your Highness for not killing!" Wu Si secretly breathed a sigh of relief, stood up cautiously, and his intuition told him that the reason why he was able to escape punishment this time should be related to the Ming woman Wang Cuiqiao, and His Royal Highness obviously didn't want the woman to know her true identity.

"Remember, don't call yourself a subordinate in front of this prince in the future, we are friends, you just rushed from Kashgar to pick me up after receiving my request for help." Babur said coldly.

Us's heart moved, and sure enough, it seems that His Royal Highness is indeed sincere to that king, and he doesn't want the other party to think that he is so deep.

"Yes!" Uss respectfully agreed, and then said cautiously: "Your Royal Highness Prince Babur, in fact, your subordinates feel that you should rush back to Tabriz immediately at this moment. ”

Babur said coldly: "This prince has his own measure, so you don't need to be verbose. After speaking, he took out a letter from his bosom, turned around and handed it over, and continued: "You immediately send someone to bring the letter back to Tabriz, and you must hand it over to my father." ”

Uss respectfully accepted the letter with both hands: "Your subordinates obey. ”

Babur sneered: "Sumani, a self-righteous fool, actually chased and killed him in person, and now he has been killed, and my father is left with only my son, who else can the throne be passed to besides me?" This old man's body is still quite strong, and it shouldn't be a problem to live another two or three years, and there is no need for Prince Ben to rush back, as long as he knows that Sumani is dead, and he himself will be in a hurry to find Prince Ben to go back to inherit the throne. ”

Uss said with admiration in his eyes: "Your Highness is wise, hey, Sumani designed to kill His Highness, but who knew that he fell into His Highness's plan." ”

A hint of smugness flashed in Babur's eyes, and he said lightly: "Although Sumani is cunning, he has a problem, that is, he is too arrogant, this prince expects that he will definitely chase after him personally, hmph, as long as he dares to chase, it will not be far from death." ”

"Hehe, if you talk about means and intelligence, Sumani is not even worthy of carrying shoes for Your Highness!" Uss complimented.

Babur waved his hand: "Alright, you can go!" ”
