Gongsun Sang and the others were caught off guard, and their expressions all changed.

Of course Zhang Zhen was unwilling.

Although it is nothing for a man to have three wives and four concubines, he has never thought about taking concubines. What's more, Hauge is still a "married girl"?

Although Hauge was a barbarian leader, how could his daughter be a concubine? Either a concubine or a wife. How could he divorce Liya?

Gongsun Sang quickly winked at Zhang Zhen, signaling you to stop talking. Then he raised his hands and said, "Master Hou is unaware of something. Zhang Baihu is already married. His wife is the adopted daughter of the King of Han."

"What's the point? Isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? Well, let my daughter be an equal wife." Hauge waved his hand and said straightforwardly and nonchalantly.

Gongsun Sang smiled bitterly, equal wife? Fortunately, this bird boy could think of it. Either a wife or a concubine, how can there be an equal wife?

This Marquis Sushun may have learned about the Han marriage system through storytellers.

Gongsun Sang took a deep breath and explained it to Hauge in detail. Hauge looked unhappy and said: "Equal wife, equal wife. It means that the status is equal to that of the wife. I have heard of the Han people doing this before.

How come there is no institution of marriage? Could it be that you look down on me?"

There is indeed something wrong with this person's brain.

Gongsun Sang thought secretly in his heart, and at the same time, she immediately replied on her face: "This is absolutely not the case. Since it is the kind intention of the Marquis, then I will replace Zhang Baihu and thank you very much."

Zhang Zhen's expression changed drastically and he was about to speak. Gongsun Sang glared at him.

Lu Yanxun was on the sidelines, thinking that this thing was really fantastic. How could this barbarian think that one thing was another thing and act so unscrupulously? Even if he entered the Han system in the future, he would probably make a mistake sooner or later and be stabbed.

"Okay, Lord Gongsun. You will stay here for three days with good food and drink, and then go back to Han. Zhang Zhen will stay here with me, and I will arrange for him to get married to my daughter."

Hauge turned his anger into joy and said with great joy.

"Okay." Gongsun Sangke responded politely.

Immediately, Hauge arranged for Gongsun Sang, Zhang Zhen and Lu Yanxun to stay in a house in the city. When they came to the main room, Zhang Zhen didn't wait to sit down and said anxiously: "Master Gongsun, how can I marry the daughter of Marquis Sushun as my equal wife?"

What? If I return to the Han Kingdom, where will my wife be placed?"

Gongsun Sang waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Let's talk about it after we get back. Or we can let the king order us to be a common wife, with a status second only to the head wife. To put it bluntly, she is still a concubine."

"Either buy another mansion and house her there. Zhang Baihu's wife and she can take care of their own affairs in the two mansions."

"These are small things. National affairs are the most important thing."

At this point, Gongsun Sang raised his head and said seriously to Zhang Zhen: "Zhang Baihu, this is an opportunity. As Hauge's son-in-law, you automatically become Hauge's confidant. When Hauge raises his army in the future, you will

Can exert influence.”

"Also General Lu Qi (Lu Yanxun) and the subordinates you brought this time will stay in Sushun and be your helpers. I only need spies from the Imperial City Department to escort me back."

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Sang himself became excited.

Although things are strange, the results are not bad.

Zhang Zhen was tall and majestic, and was chosen by the barbarian leader as his son-in-law.

It's really wonderful.

"Brother, I think Lord Gongsun is right. In Meng Yuan, a son-in-law is an extremely important member of the family. In some cases, the son-in-law can even inherit the position of tribal leader. I don't know what the situation is in Sushun.

.But the status of a son-in-law is definitely not light. He has a lot to do."

Lu Yanxun pinched his chin, with a look of excitement on his face, and said: "Brother, don't you always say that you have to rely on the horse in your hand to make achievements? If you don't dare to compete with the king, you have to be an enemy of ten thousand people and win consecutive battles.

?This is a big opportunity.”

"When the fight breaks out. Because of your status as son-in-law, you may be able to recruit one or two thousand men and lead the Sushun people to fight fiercely with the Mongolian people."

After Zhang Zhen heard this, he didn't know how to answer. Debating was not something he was good at, and this matter seemed to have more advantages than disadvantages.

But I always feel sorry for my cousin.

Zhang Zhen is brave, but in this kind of matter, he is just a puppet on a string, being manipulated by Gongsun Sang.

Three days later, Gongsun Sang happily embarked on his way home with the spies from the Imperial City Division, leaving Zhang Zhen and Lu Yanxun behind in the Sushun tribe.

At the same time, under the command of Hauge's confidant Jin Tie, Sushun began to prepare the supplies needed for the war. Hauge did not say a word to the outside world.

No one knew that Hauge had surrendered to the King of Han and planned to raise an army.

Spring passes and autumn comes.

God gives you food to eat.

Liaodong had another bumper harvest this year. Although the Han River Basin in Goguryeo suffered from floods, other places were not greatly affected.

The production of grain was not only self-sufficient, but also had a surplus. Lu Sheng sent civilians to collect part of the grain and sent it to Jiang County, the capital, as military supplies.

When the harvest in autumn is sufficient, it is the time to use troops.

The whole country of Han was filled with murderous intent.

This morning.

Wu Nian was reading in the Dexing Pavilion and was enjoying it. The book was not a serious book, but a romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

During the recent period, he did not practice martial arts or read military books. He completely let himself go, recuperating his energy and waiting for the day to send troops.

"Your Majesty, Lord Gongsun is back." A eunuch came in from outside and bowed to Wu Nian.

"Huh?" Wu Nian reacted immediately, put down the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and said happily: "Please."

"Yes." The eunuch responded, turned around and went down.

After a while, Gongsun Sang walked in from the outside. Although he was wearing the official uniform of a minister, it was very awkward. He felt like "wearing a crown while wearing a monkey".

"Gongsun Shangshu. It seems that you have suffered a lot." Wu Nian said with a smile.

"Compared with the soldiers fighting desperately, the suffering I have suffered is nothing." Gongsun Sang shook his head and said righteously.

"Yeah." Wu Nian knew that what Gongsun Sang said was true, but his work attitude was really nothing to say, and his adventurous spirit was also remarkable.

He was proud in his heart.

Only the important ministers of Han State can be so brave. Pull out the important ministers of Chu State and Goguryeo and see if they dare to cross hundreds of miles and enter the hinterland of the enemy country to complete similar tasks?

After the two exchanged a few words, they got down to business. Gongsun Sang told Wu Nian what had happened.

Wu Nian frowned after hearing this, showing displeasure, and said: "Barbarians are barbarians, they don't know etiquette."

This kind nephew and adopted son-in-law actually married an equal wife.

If he had been present at that time, he would definitely not have agreed.

What's more, it would be too dangerous to leave Zhang Zhen in Sushun. But the deal is already done, and there's no point in saying more.

"Thank you Gongsun Shangshu for your hard work. Go back and rest for three days. After three days, you will return to work in the Yamen. The first day of October is the day when I will send troops to Huanglong Mansion. By then, the court will be busy."

"I want to go straight to Huanglong."

Wu Nian said with a bright look on his face.

"yes."
