Just when everyone was about to take a breath, a miserable voice screamed. It turned out to be the first maid who was knocked unconscious. At this moment, the voice resounded throughout the official village. Li Xiang and several people looked at each other, their faces full of tears.
He was panicked, but Li Xiang looked back at the young master who was even more panicked, and put his heart in his stomach.
After the inquiry just now, we learned that this person is the youngest son of Chief Maiqi. He is also the apple of Chief Chief Maiqi's eye in normal times. With such a person as a hostage, what else can happen to us? Unless this son is not his biological son.
of.
Many people were moving outside, and there were sounds of people going up and down the stairs. This was the disadvantage of a wooden house. As long as someone made a move, almost everyone could hear it. Li Xiang didn't know that this was the case.
How is the soundproofing of the house? If he sells toast at night, his son might still be able to hear it.
"Master Chieftain, you can't go there. A thief has entered the official village."
"It seems to be in the young master's room."
The three of them, Li Xiang, sat happily on the carpet, and then enjoyed some Tibetan refreshments. Although the taste was not very good, at least it was warm here. The two braziers heated up the room. Thinking about the brothers who were blowing the cold wind outside.
, our life has been pretty good.
As for the chieftains outside? Li Xiang has nothing to worry about. As long as these people are still worried about the young master's life and death, they won't be able to do anything too extreme.
"Put down the arrow for me. Are you all crazy? If anything happens to the young master, I will peel off all of your skins. Butler, go over and take a look."
People outside have surrounded this room. When they saw some people preparing to shoot bows and arrows, Chief Maiqi slapped him in the face. If there was a thief, then your behavior was very heroic, but the problem is that the young master
It's still inside. If the young master scratches his skin, it will be useless to kill your whole family.
In Tubo, the interests of slave owners are above all else. Whether they are slaves or poor people, their lives are not important. As long as the chieftain is happy, he can kill all his people, so these people are
They are extremely bloodthirsty, but only when they see their children, they will become normal people. It is precisely because Li Xiang understands this that he can sit in the house and eat and drink without any fear.
The situation outside.
Although the housekeeper is also scared, the master has already said that if you don't go over, you will probably be chopped down with a knife, and your death will be even more ugly. In the entire official village, the status of the housekeeper is second only to that of Mai Qi Tusi.
A family can be said to be a prominent figure.
The housekeeper walked slowly to the door and looked back at the people around him to cheer himself up. But before he could touch the door, the door opened from the inside.
"The young master is still alive..."
The young master could be seen from the butler's position. After hearing this, Chief Maiqi and the people around him breathed a sigh of relief.
"Han people, they are Han people..."
The steward's next words raised everyone's hearts again. They originally thought they were Songtsen Gampo's people, but they didn't expect they were Han Chinese from the northeast. What on earth were they here to do?
"hehe……"
After hearing the steward's words, everyone else was confused, but Chief Maiqi smiled instead. These Han people in Tubo have always shrunk their necks and never come out when nothing happens. There is no way they would do this.
It was a fatal matter. The reason why they held their son hostage and did not harm him was because they had something to discuss.
"Listen to me, my son, Chieftain Maiqi, is not an ordinary person. If he loses even one hair, I will twitch all of you and peel off your skin. If you have any requests, you can just say it. Let's talk about it slowly."
Chieftain Mai Qi did not let the housekeeper go in to negotiate. Instead, he shouted from a distance of more than ten meters. The people around him were all his old subordinates. Those who were allowed to live in the official village were all loyal to them for three generations, so he also
Don't be afraid that some words will be spread.
"Maiqi Tusi is indeed courageous, but I am not an ordinary person. In terms of status, I should not be much worse than your son. If Maiqi Tusi is interested, you may wish to come in and discuss it."
Li Xiang threw out a token when he spoke. Of course, Li Xiang would not reveal his identity. He just took the token from a certain palace in Chang'an. Although Chief Maiqi didn't recognize this thing, he had people who knew the stuff.
people.
"People from the royal palace."
Maggie Toast asked someone to pick up the sign and then showed it to his capable men.
"It turns out he's a friend from Datang. If that's the case, you might as well go to my living room and have a talk. We can easily solve anything we have. How about letting my son go? He's still a child."
Chieftain Maiqi's eyes flickered. It was impossible for him not to be angry at anyone who kidnapped his son. If these people were allowed to walk out safely, would Chieftain Maiqi still have any dignity on the plateau? Isn't that right?
Can anyone who is not a cat or a dog kidnap his son? The Tang Dynasty’s palace is indeed powerful, but who are you in the palace?
"I'm afraid this won't work. If the chieftain cares about your son, you can come to the room to talk. Your son's room is big enough. There are only three of us. Your housekeeper can see clearly. You can bring ten people in.
."
Before gaining the favor of the other party, Li Xiang would never hand over the chips in his hand. If he handed over the chips in his hand, he would probably fall into a passive state. He came all the way here.
There must be no room for any mistakes.
"Master, don't go..."
Seeing Maiqi Toast make a move, the women next to him quickly stopped him. Maiqi Toast was the hope of these women. If something happened to Maiqi Toast, these women might not be well.
The days have passed.
"Get out of my way. If you guys are willing to let me have ten or eight sons, will I take the risk?"
Chieftain Maiqi said very angrily, these women did not dare to speak. The status of women is not very good. Even if you are the chieftain's woman, if the chieftain is not happy, you may be rewarded as a slave at any time.
, The son is the chieftain’s most important asset, otherwise what would he do in this life?
