Xia Xun was undoubtedly the one who had the easiest time eating at the Fengfeng Banquet.【】
The leaders of Dunhuang tribes and aristocratic families are far more concerned about the current situation than Xia Xun.
They have lived in Dunhuang for generations, and their prosperity and wealth originated from this place. The last thing they want is for a powerful and destructive force to come here and cause irreparable damage to their homeland.
But now the Tamerlane Empire and the Ming Empire are about to go to war. They cannot control this war, and their home has become a battlefield. So they must find someone to rely on between these two powerful forces.
Originally, they were located on the border of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty's unique restraint policy did little damage to their inherent rights and interests. They were willing to attach themselves to the Ming Dynasty. However, precisely because of their free status as half ministers and half guests, once they became attached,
Mu'er's army arrived. In order to protect themselves, they took refuge with Timur. They also had no psychological barriers. They just thought that having breasts would be a mother.
However, after Xia Xun's words, they had to carefully consider their attitude.
It’s hard to be a wallflower!
If you go to Timur, you will inevitably be driven by Tamerlane to rush to the front line to fight against the Ming Dynasty. So once Timur is defeated and returns to Samarkand, how can the Ming Dynasty not liquidate their crimes?
If they defect to the Ming Dynasty, and Duke Fu has already expressed his attitude, it is impossible for the Ming Dynasty army to abandon the dangerous pass and go to the desert to confront Timur. Then they will either retreat into the desert and fight guerrillas with Timur, or they can
They had to retreat to Jiayuguan and accept the protection of the Ming army. In this process, their cavalry would inevitably have to accept the command of the Ming court and participate in the battle.
In short, no matter which side they defect to, they can't stand to watch this collision between the two major armed groups from the East and the West. Participating in the war is inevitable. Now it's up to them to choose which side to defect to.
Therefore, what they are most concerned about now is whether the Ming Dynasty's military force is really as powerful as Xia Xun said, and whether it is enough to fight against the lame emperor who has never been defeated so far. In order to obtain more accurate information, they unanimously chose Saiha Zhi.
and wind fissure as a breakthrough point.
Compared with Xia Xun, who has shrewd eyes and calm temperament, these two guys don't seem to be able to keep secrets. They took turns toasting to Sai Hazhi and Feng Suiyan, chatting enthusiastically with them, and tried every means to get them out of their mouths.
Ask yourself what news you want to know, and prove everything Xia Xun revealed through circumstantial evidence.
This banquet was provided by Baidu Jinyi Night Post Bar Huangmen Neipin. They were more tired from eating than anyone else.
The sunset in the desert is golden.
The banquet broke up, and as the most distinguished guest, Xia Xun was arranged to stay at Kun Ji's mansion.
This residence is an independent courtyard. This courtyard alone covers an area of more than ten acres. However, the courtyard in winter is really not that good. Most of the place is open land. Perhaps in spring and summer, the flowers and grass here are red and green.
Late autumn is full of fruits and beautiful pastoral scenery, but at this time it only gives people a feeling of desolation.
There are not many buildings in the yard, and most of the exterior walls are made of mud. The main passage from the front yard is very long, and the entire passage is covered with grape trellises. From a distance, the side covered with white snow is reflected by the sunlight.
Golden, like countless entangled golden snakes. Once you walk down, you will see dry branches. From the outside, this is an ordinary farm. However, when you enter the room, it is a different scene, with quilts and curtains.
The seats are all precious from the north, south, east and west, and the furniture, furnishings, antiques, jades, and all kinds of furnishings are also extremely luxurious, but the magnificence without being tacky is really unique.
Tang Sai'er was sitting on the edge of the kang in Xia Xun's room, with a plate of preserved fruits on his lap and two little girls enjoying themselves. When the door curtain opened, Xia Xun walked in. Sai'er was overjoyed and immediately put down the fruit plate.
, ran over happily: "Godfather!"
Xia Xun smiled, rubbed her head, and asked, "Have you eaten?"
Tang Sai'er said: "I've eaten, but it's so boring to eat alone."
Xia Xun laughed and said, "If I ask you and your godfather to go to that intrigue banquet, you will find it even more boring."
He walked to the kang and sat down. Tang Saier crawled on his hands and knees, took the plate of preserved fruits, picked an agate preserved jujube from the candied plate, and held it with two fingers, as if offering a treasure.
He handed it to Xia Xun's mouth: "Daddy, try it, it's so sweet!"
Xia Xun smiled and accepted his goddaughter's filial piety, patted her little butt and said: "Good boy, sit down, godfather has something to do!"
While she was talking, Xilin and Jeanna, who had already changed into her dancing clothes, walked in and bowed to Xia Xun Yingying: "Master"
Xia Xun said: "Sit down, you have heard about the identities of those people at the table just now. Now, tell me carefully what you know about them and their families."
The two women looked at each other and asked them to sing and dance to entertain people. This was a skill they had learned since childhood. Now that they were sitting in front of the master in such a serious manner to consult on his important affairs, the two of them were a little at a loss and didn't know where to start the conversation.
When Xia Xun saw it, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't be nervous, just talk about everyday things. You don't have to deliberately select what can and cannot be said. Talk about the person first and then the person. As long as you have heard of it and met it before
Yes, no matter big or small, official or private, just say whatever comes to mind, maybe one sentence will be of great use!"
Encouraged by this, the two girls gained courage. Xilin thought for a moment and said happily: "Ah! Master, I think of one thing, that is the Ying Zhan sitting in the fourth position on the right. At the beginning, the two sisters were Ying Zhan.
Your Excellency bought us back from Bieshubali, and I know a little about his family's situation."
"Ying Zhan? Okay, tell me!"
※※※※
Ying Zhan quietly slipped into a courtyard.
In the room, there is a dressing table with simple patterns, and a glazed orchid lamp on the corner of the table. The open petals are where the lamp oil is held, and the stamens inside are the wicks. There is a gauze-like lampshade on top, which is bright and soft.
The lights reflected a young woman in evening clothes.
She was wearing a translucent organza-backed nightgown, with a slender waist, bright and charming, and was sitting lazily in front of the dressing table taking off her makeup.
There are all kinds of expensive jewelry on the dressing table, including hairpins and bracelets. They are all made of gold, silver, pearls, precious stones and jade. They are all treasures. You can take any piece out and sell it at the largest jewelry store in Jinling City.
They are worth tens of thousands, but now they are just thrown carelessly on the table.
Opposite, there is an ancient bronze mirror with clear light and no hair. The mirror reflects a beautiful face, with true beauty and dimples as pink as jade. From behind, her gourd-shaped figure is uneven, with exquisite curves, and her flesh is
The flesh was looming under the tulle, and there was a hint of a charming tunnel. When people looked up, they were kissed gently. The man succeeded in stealing the fragrance, and moved away with a smile. Only then did she realize that it was
own husband.
The young man said angrily: "You smell of wine and you don't even wash up. What are you doing in someone else's room tonight?"
Ying Zhan is a wealthy man in the northwest, so there will be no shortage of women around him. However, no matter how many women he has, he still has countless legal wives. Now Ying Zhan only has three wives. Originally, the system of polygamy and multiple concubines has been practiced since ancient times.
, except for a few powerful people who occasionally marry one wife and two wives for the sake of political alliance, most families have multiple wives. However, Ying Zhan is a Muslim, but he can marry four wives.
.
However, there are conditions for their polygamy. They must treat all their wives equally. No matter whether it is love or material things, they cannot favor any one. Materials can be quantified, but how can the depth of affection be reflected? The only choice is to sleep in the same room with their wives.
It shows that he can't just stay in her room for a long time just because he loves a certain wife. Tonight, he shouldn't stay in this wife's room, so this beautiful young man would ask such questions.
Ying Zhan sighed softly, pulled Jin Dun and sat down next to her, sniffed her fragrance enthusiastically, and then said: "Let me talk to you and leave. You know, when I have something on my mind,
I just want to tell you."
"Um!"
The beautiful young woman smiled sweetly at him in the mirror, stood up Yingying, walked to the side, and took out a wine glass carved from suet and jade from the cabinet. The color of the wine cup was like suet, the texture was fine, and the wall of the cup was as thin as an egg.
The shell is also a very precious thing. If you look carefully, every table, chair, cup and cup in this room are all treasures in the world.
She took out a goose-necked and pot-bellied jade wine bottle, poured a glass of fine wine, handed it back to her husband, sat down next to him, and said gently: "What's the matter?"
Ying Zhan turned the wine glass in his hand and said thoughtfully: "Miaoyi, you know, our family is a prominent family in Dunhuang and has a great business!"
"Yes!" The beautiful young woman stared at her husband with a pair of dazzling eyes and listened to what he said.
Miaoyi!
Over the past ten years, the innocent little girl who loved to talk and listen to stories about talented men and beauties has now matured into a charming young woman with a mature body, a round and round body, and an innocent and lively personality.
My son has also become gentle and restrained.
In ten years, the king's flag changed at the top of the city, and the original land had changed three emperors; in ten years, the good-looking King Qi in Qingzhou City was still very good-looking, but the Sun family, the former medicine merchant, had long since changed his family.
Who would have thought that the woman from that family who had been talked about all over the city had already married a merchant and came to the far west, within Yangguan.
Ying Zhan said: "Timur led the army to the east. I originally thought that it was none of our business. If he really came, I would reward his army with some rice, grain, cattle and sheep. With our status as ancient people
Being a believer in God is enough to keep our family safe. However, when two lions fight, no one can stand by. Now, the Duke of Ming Dynasty has also come. After listening to his words today, I began to feel that I was too naive.
Come on, don’t miss the eight-mile trip. I’m hesitating whether to go or not. Alas! This Yang Xu is amazing.”
Miao Yi was listening to him quietly, but suddenly she heard him say the name "Yang Xu". She couldn't help but trembled, her face suddenly changed color, and she said in surprise: "What Yang Xu?"
