Chapter 618 Trading

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Li Po really wanted to say something, do you know that the Sui Dynasty stipulated that a woman should become an adult at the age of sixteen?

What is adulthood is the age at which one can get married and have children. Although there are various considerations involved, it is indeed a reasonable age group.

Everyone may not abide by it. Li Po also heard about some women getting married as early as twelve or thirteen years old, but this is a marriage between princes. It is too rash for you to send a little girl here... This is something that his family cannot afford.

Give it to me to keep, or something like that?

Those Turkic barbarians are not so unreliable. After all, you, Wang Shichong, are from the Wang family in Bacheng. How could you do such a disgraceful thing?

Li Po felt that he was blushing for Wang Shichong, but in fact, Wang Shichong was very arrogant. He was also a little annoyed that Wang Shiyun did not take back Empress Xiao, but took it upon himself to propose a marriage with Li Po, but the person he chose was

Didn't mean to fool him.

Originally, Wang Shichong wanted to choose a woman from among his peers, because after all, the marriage was a peaceful marriage between princes, not ministers... But after searching around, he couldn't find anyone of the right age who was not yet married.

There's no way, look at how old their brothers are, there really isn't a girl in their lineage.

So we could only settle for the next best thing. There were three brothers and a lot of daughters. In the past few years, even though Henan had become a mess, the Wang family was very prosperous.

Daughters are marrying into Luoyang aristocratic families one after another. In this regard, the Luoyang Wang family does seem to have a somewhat royal appearance.

That’s why Princess Yuanhui and Wang Zhen were finally chosen.

Wang Zhen is also relatively well-known in Luoyang. She often leads her attendants to help beggars in Luoyang. She has a reputation for mercy. However, since there is not much food left in the warehouse in Luoyang, even she herself has to eat corn, which makes her look miserable.

When your child is already green, how can you care about beggars?

It can also be seen from this that others may be able to rest this year, but Wang Shichong cannot. His family's food and grass can almost last until winter. If it is delayed until next year, no one can save Luoyang.

Wang Shichong said he didn't care about this. He still had a sweet dream of leveling the world.

Now here in Puban, Li Po glanced at Wang Zhen from time to time. Wang Zhen lowered his head and turned red even on his thin neck. Wang Shiyun was watching there, feeling a little complacent. He thought it was a good idea to bring his nephew here.

Take the right step.

Food and sex are also related to food and sex. Master Confucius was really right.

If Li Po hears this, he will definitely slap him in the face. Show me how sexy you are to such a little girl who can be blown away by just blowing on her...

It's just that his character, influenced by power, can only be maintained at this level. Even if he doesn't want to, he will never send people back.

Wang Shichong needed him to threaten Li Tang's side, and he also needed Wang Shichong to attack Tongguan and consume Li Tang's strength. Everything else was actually just details.

"It was only one month before King Qi came here again. In his haste, the reception was not good enough. Please don't take offense to King Qi."

Wang Shiyun held up his hands and laughed, "What did your Highness say? We are running around here and there, and we have no leisure. We are just born at the right time, and we go through hardships together. If you want to blame it, I'm afraid it can only be blamed on the chaos of the world, which makes people unable to control themselves.

…”

After Li Po heard this, he curled his lips secretly, "It's okay for others to say this, but you, the Wang family, can forget about it."

Just as we went back and forth, everyone made it clear. You said I came in a hurry, I said I was forced by the situation and couldn't help myself, and the unreasonable places in the middle were almost gently removed.

Everyone knows something well, so why bother obsessing over it?

Li Po pondered for a moment and felt that he should simply take advantage of Wang Shichong. At this time, as long as he could lead his army to attack Li Yuan, that would be the biggest advantage.

"That's right... speaking of it, you and I are not outsiders now. I think I might as well say something directly. I heard that the prince wants to raise an army to attack Li Yuan. Is there anything wrong?"

Getting straight to the point, Wang Shiyun was stunned for a moment, then said seriously: "It's exactly Li Yuan and his son who stole Xijing..."

Li Po smiled slightly and interrupted him, "Such words... Haha, there is no need to say more between you and me, right? I am happy to see the success of the prince's challenge to Li Yuan. If we can break Tongguan and enter Xijing directly,

, lead Li Yuan and his son at the foot of the stairs, I, Li Pofei, am a villain, and with just a thousand pieces of gold and a promise, I will put the general trend of the world first and end the war."

"Now that the King of Qi is here, he must have something to say... Let's put it bluntly, the prince has raised troops to the west, what do you need me, Li Po, to do?"

Wang Shiyun was interrupted and was still a little embarrassed, but after listening to what Li Po said, his eyes finally lit up, but he was cautious and did not speak immediately. Instead, he pondered how much of what the other party said was true, and how much of it was true.

Some of it is fake.

And he was also secretly weighing whether the other party would agree to his request. Before coming, he did not expect that Li Ding'an would be so "reasonable"...

So, he was thinking a little too much, is he going to surrender to me? What happened before the Jin Dynasty? This man has just become the king.

Could it be that the emperor was really telling the truth, that this person consciously found his place in the Jin Dynasty, and that he came from a humble background and was too small to compete with the heroes of the world, so he had the desire to help others?

At this point, the hall was peaceful. Only Wang Zhen was looking around with her curious, timid and slightly ignorant eyes, secretly glancing at the tall and strong guy in the hall who made her usually majestic uncle laugh repeatedly.

Finally, it was quietly covered with a layer of mist.

Just like when I heard that I was going to marry far away...

In these days, it is definitely not the two scheming big men in the hall who really can't help themselves. They will only make others unable to control themselves. The only ones who can't really control their own destiny are those weak people.

Wang Shiyun finally spoke, "Your Highness's spirit is really admirable. Even so, Wang is no longer polite. The army needs a lot of food and grass to set off..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Po smiled and replied simply, "Luoyang Dacang is famous all over the world, so how can it be short of food? The barren land of Jin is also known to the world... I use my own shortcomings to make up for others.

Director, is King Qi joking?"

You are really neat. Wang Shiyun held his breath, a little uncomfortable, but he was mentally prepared. Food and grass have been the most precious things in the world since the last years of the Daye. They and Li Mi were fighting in full swing in Luoyang. In addition to wanting the Dongdu capital

Besides, what I need is food and grass.

Unless there is a matter of life and death, asking the princes to borrow grain and grass from abroad is simply more difficult than climbing to the sky.

Moreover, even if he was really in urgent need of food and grass, Wang Shiyun would not give the reason that the warehouse in Luoyang was empty, so the topic could only be easily dismissed.

In fact, the pace of their conversation is gradually accelerating, and the right to speak is completely in the hands of Li Po. It is similar to the situation when Ashina Mudan came to Li Po and asked him to send troops to the grassland. The person asking for help and the person being asked for

They are all aware and will never turn things upside down.

The difference is that the Turks have a great cause and are very confident, but Wang Shichong is not the same. He is facing internal and external difficulties and will undoubtedly become a knife that Li Po wields against Li Tang.

What Li Po had to do now was to pull the half-unsheathed sword out of its sheath and sharpen it again.

Wang Shiyun, who was unaware that he was still working hard, said, "With the army together, the more food and grass the better. Since His Highness is also in a tight situation, alas, forget it."

He struggled a little, but in Li Po's eyes it was too slight, with too many traces of overseas Chinese love. He thought to himself, this is not what a good lobbyist should say. Why should you mention that I snatched it from Youzhou?

How come you gave up so quickly on food?

Wang Shiyun did give up and made another request, "Your Highness has a lot of contacts with the Turks, which is really enviable. I wonder if you can send me some good horses at this juncture. Your Highness can rest assured. It doesn't take too much, and there will definitely be treasures."

Communicate with His Highness."

Having said this, Wang Shiyun couldn't help but blush a little. He had never done this kind of bargaining since he was born. He was very uncomfortable talking to a prince with such a high price.

Li Po's answer was still so irritating.

"When the prince comes from the west and attacks the city, he doesn't need any good horses, right?"

He snarled harshly, and then handed over another sweet date, "Well, I am always hospitable, but I can't let the distinguished guests return empty-handed. In this way, when the army arrives, I can send some bows, arrows, swords and guns across the river, please

What does King Qi think if the prince takes it for himself?"

So what's the difference? Wang Shiyun was overjoyed at that time. In fact, with the war reaching this level and no one managing it, everything was in short supply in Henan.

A certain degree of officialdom.

If Li Po had not proclaimed himself King of Han, then it is very likely that Wang Shiyun would have suggested that he wear a very tall hat on his head.

"Thank you, Your Highness..."

Li Po smiled and said: "Don't rush to thank me. I heard that all the families in the eastern capital have high status and have relatives in Xijing. I have a heartless request. I want the prince to send some of his eldest grandsons, Dugu, Chai and other family members.

Is it inconvenient to come here?"

Wang Shiyun was shocked, such a deal was a bit...so he asked immediately, "Oh? Why is your highness here?"

Li Poxin said, "What's rare is strange. You come and I come and go. It's a deal. You just bring a little girl and then you don't care and continue to ask me for things. How can there be such truth in the world?"

Look at Princess Yicheng, how grand the Turkic Khan is, but you are so good. It seems like you can't close your mouth when you open it. You look like a beggar on the street. Your face is really ugly.

He was muttering in his heart, but he opened his mouth to lie, "Without him, Li Yuan and I have been fighting each other so far, and we have become a big enemy. But my father-in-law and others are still in Xijing. If I don't have any support, I am afraid that Li Yuan will harm me. Well, if the prince can send

If some of the people Li Yuan had to save came over, I would be extremely grateful."

Wang Shiyun was a little confused, and then he thought about the heads that had fallen off in Dongdu over the years, and felt quite sorry. If he had known earlier that they could still be used for such a purpose, it would be great to lock people up. Maybe they could exchange for some food and war horses to go back.
