Chapter 561: Roommates are at war with each other.
Emperor Lippi boasted that his sister should be in the sky.
"What's your sister's name?"
"Condensed beads,"
"Han name?"
"Well, my sister's biological mother is a Han Chinese and a royal princess."
The handsome prince of the Xi tribe didn't think there was anything wrong with his sister becoming his adoptive father's concubine, nor did he feel that it was confusing his generation. After marrying his adoptive father, he still called him sister.
I don’t know what Kedu thought of naming his son Pi Di.
Could it be that you want your son to inherit the throne of King Xi when he grows up and rival the Great Emperor of the Central Plains?
"Let me change your name. Han names have to be taboo. The words gods, ghosts, immortals, Buddhas, emperors, dragons and phoenixes are not suitable for names.
Let me change the word for you to match it."
The little fat man didn't care whether he was called Pi Di or Pei Di. He had just arrived in Youzhou from outside the Great Wall, and he just felt that everything was new. He liked it here very much, and he also liked his adoptive father's other adopted sons and students.
I think they are very interesting and all of them are very capable.
"Please give me a cousin name from my adoptive father."
"My name is Siqian."
"Thank you stepfather for giving me the word."
Although the little fat man's father was a very successful man, the little fat man was quite upright and would answer whatever was asked.
Ningzhu's mother is a Han Chinese. The little fat man said she was a princess. In fact, her real surname was Xiao. It is said that she was the niece of Empress Xiao of Yang Guang. Yang Guang married her to Kedu, the son of Su Zhi, the king of Xi at that time, and gave her as a princess gift.
I went there, but I wasn't canonized as a princess, nor did I change my surname.
After Mrs. Xiao came to the grassland, she gave birth to two sisters, Ningzhu and Hanzhu. She raised and taught the two sisters with great care. She taught them Chinese characters, chess, calligraphy, and painting from an early age.
The two girls grew up on the grassland, but their surname is Xiao.
Kedu had previously betrothed Hanzhu to Kuge, the son of the Great Hemo Society, in order to win over the Khitan Khan.
The little fat man thinks that Mrs. Xiao is the princess of the Central Plains, a fairy-like figure, and his two sisters are also gods.
After hearing this, Huaiyu felt that the little fat man must be exaggerating, but Xiao Ningzhu's mother is the niece of Empress Xiao, and she was born in the Xiao family of Lanling. Her daughter has learned Han culture and etiquette since she was a child, so there will definitely be no difference, at least there is no need to worry.
There is a communication problem.
He took a book of poems of his own, a jade pendant, some gold and silver ornaments, silk and satin, and asked the little fat man to hand them over to Xiao Ningzhu for him.
The man who could be saved smiled when he saw what his son had brought.
"The teacher said he would come to pick him up tonight and there would be a big banquet for the guests."
Madam Xiao picked up the book of Qingyang poems and flipped through it, "It's hard to imagine that so many amazing poems were written by the Grand Governor. Ningzhu, if you marry him, even though you are a concubine, it is not an grievance.
It’s much better than marrying a tribal prince who only knows how to bend a bow and shoot eagles.”
The redeemer stroked his beard and laughed, "Madam, are you telling me that you only know how to bend a bow and shoot at eagles?"
"Your Majesty is much stronger than them. You are King Xi who can make poems, be good at literature and martial arts," Mrs. Xiao praised him all the time, which made Kedu very happy. It has been more than ten years since Xiao came to the Xi Department.
, but Xiao and Kedu get along very well.
Mrs. Xiao did not dislike Kedu, and Kedu would never treat her rudely.
It feels a bit like raising a case and treating each other with eyebrows and respect like a guest.
"Your Majesty really wants to use troops against Shanbei Xi?" asked Madam Xiao.
"Well, these people don't eat and drink as fines when toasting. Now they are so arrogant that they don't even recognize me as King Xi. So what else is there to say? Just wipe them out. In the past two years, there have been a lot of noises in the tribe.
, this time we suffered a big loss following Tuli, and there were even more people who wanted to deal with me overtly or covertly.
If that's the case, then let's just go on a killing spree."
"We are born from the same roots, so why rush into each other?" Ms. Xiao reminded.
But those who can be saved just laugh.
"You have been in the Xi tribe for more than ten years. Don't you know that the views of the Fanhu outside the Great Wall are very different from those of the people in the Central Plains? These Beishan Xi, I regard them as my tribe, but they may not regard me as my tribe."
"If I don't use thunder now, I'm afraid that my Mohefu will not be able to sit still. Then there will be chaos and the price will be even greater." Kedu sighed.
If a tribe cannot have a strong and authoritative leader, then there will be civil strife, and then foreign enemies will take advantage of the situation. At that time, it is the time for the entire tribe to be bullied, but many people are short-sighted and simply cannot
I can't see these things, I only know that I am blindly fighting for power and gain.
In order to consolidate his authority, he could only annex the Tang Dynasty, and even served as a vanguard for the Tang Dynasty, killing those who danced the most happily.
A person who can be saved is not afraid of others saying that he is a dog for the Tang people.
What does it matter about being a dog? It depends on who you are making a dog for. Not everyone has the opportunity to be a dog for Datang.
"My lady, give Ningzhu a good look. She will look beautiful when she gets married today."
Mrs. Xiao was helpless.
It was too hasty and hasty, and she couldn't say that the Governor of Wu Da did not understand etiquette. After all, the daughter was brought to the door by her husband on his own initiative, and she was just a concubine. How could she expect three books, six etiquette, and ten miles of red makeup?
"Aye doesn't have anything to give you as a dowry. I'll just give you a thousand horses and three thousand sheep as a dowry."
Kedu still loved his daughter very much, and of course he had to fawn over his son-in-law. One thousand horses and three thousand sheep were something that King Xi could bear.
Night falls.
The government office was also bustling.
It is a beautiful thing that Wu Huaiyu, Duke of Yiguo, the governor of Youzhou, took as his concubine the daughter of Duke Loufan, the governor of Raole.
Although the news was a bit sudden, everyone was happy to hear it, as if they were the ones taking the concubine, and felt bright in their faces.
"Can I save you with a thousand horses and three thousand sheep as a dowry? Fan Hu is really Fan Hu, just give him some livestock."
"Such livestock are very valuable. A good horse in Youzhou costs tens of thousands of dollars. These thousand horses cost only ten million dollars. A leg of mutton in Youzhou costs dozens of dollars."
"You also said that this is the price of horses in Youzhou. This is still a good horse. If it were in Xidi, a horse would probably only cost a few thousand dollars."
"You are so generous. Even if one horse costs several thousand, these one thousand sheep are still several million, and there are still three thousand sheep."
The melon-eating people were fighting over irrelevant things, but their faces were red.
However, the 1,000 horses and 3,000 sheep belonging to King Xi’s married daughter cannot be seen for the time being. They are only on the list of those who can be saved. If they are to be sent back later, they will definitely have to wait until the winter and spring are over.
The horses and sheep were fattened and brought here after the summer and autumn cool.
A group of Yiluohe Xi tribe knights escorted a Xi motorcade and sent Princess Ningzhu to the Governor's Mansion.
The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves and were in harmony.
When Khitan Khan Li Mohui arrived in Youzhou, it was already almost the Chinese New Year.
"The one who can be saved gave his daughter to the governor as a concubine?"
Li Mo would not have expected that Kedu could move so quickly.
He arranged for his subordinates in Youzhou to tell him another news, "Kedu not only gave the governor his daughter as a concubine and asked his son to adopt the governor as his adoptive father, but he also expressed his intention to take him with him in front of everyone in Youzhou.
The soldiers serve as the vanguard, helping the governor to sweep away Beishan and ridicule those rebellious Tibetans who disobey the orders of the Tang Dynasty king."
"The One Who Can Save Really Said That?"
"Yes, he said this more than once, and he also said that he would personally cut off the heads of the leaders of the Xi tribe in Beishan and let the best craftsmen in their Xi tribe make those skulls into drowning weapons for the governor to use."
The young Mohui couldn't help but be amazed after hearing this, "This guy is really not that ruthless."
"Beishan Xi, that's also their Xi tribe."
"The Xi people have always been like this, and we Khitans are brothers of the same species as them, but over the years we have often been bullied by them, often plundering the livestock of our Khitan tribe, and taking our people into slavery. In the past, among the eight ancient Khitan tribes, who was not bullied by them?
Have you ever been beaten by someone?
Nowadays, the new eight divisions still keep the old enmity ledgers."
It is said that the Xi Khitans have the same origin, and are both descendants of the Xiongnu and Xianbei Yuwen tribes. They are nomadic among the pine deserts, but the relationship is not very good. Because Xi is close to the Central Plains, there are benefits from trade, and the handicraft industry is also more advanced, and the equipment
also better,
So the Xi people often robbed them, oppressed them, and sometimes even brought people from the Central Plains to beat them.
In the Sui Dynasty, when the Khitans refused to submit to the Sui Dynasty, and the Sui general Wei Yunqi used Turkic troops to attack the Khitans, the Xi people also acted as their guides, this group of mahu.
Over the years, the Khitan formed eight new tribes. After recuperating and recuperating, their strength recovered, and many tribes began to take revenge on the Xi people.
Su Zhi, Ke Duzhe and his son are both good at fighting.
The relationship between Khitan and Xi has also eased, and Kedu even betrothed his daughter Hanzhu to Mohui's son Ku Ge.
It is rare for the two tribes to advance and retreat together.
For example, they raised troops together with Tuli to fight against Tuli, then defected together, and then annexed the Tang Dynasty together.
But now Keduzhe has promised his daughter to Wu Huaiyu as his concubine without consulting the Khitan.
Shouldn't this kind of thing be discussed together?
You have a daughter, but I don’t have a daughter?
Da Hemo, who was a step late, thought about it for a while, entered Youzhou City regardless of the dust, and went directly to Yacheng to see Wu Huaiyu.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he said that he had a daughter and wanted to marry her to the governor.
"The Khitan is willing to give a thousand horses, a thousand cattle, and a thousand sheep as a dowry."
Wu Huaiyu looked at the Great Hemo Club, which was not much older than himself.
"I remember Brother Ku is your eldest son, right? He is only nine years old. How old is your daughter?"
"The eldest daughter is also nine years old this year."
Wu Huaiyu couldn't help but darken his face.
Nine years old?
You asked me to raise a child and wife.
"The surname of the country is Gong, and the gold is too small. In fact, the relationship between us does not need to be like this."
Mo Hui kept saying, "Actually, she is not young anymore. She will be able to have a baby in three or four years at most."
Too much of an animal.
"It really doesn't have to be like this."
The Khitan is now known as the eight tribes, with 40,000 troops, and its strength is no longer much weaker than that of the Xi tribe.
"I still have many younger sisters. If the Governor dislikes the young age of my daughter, the Governor can choose any of my sisters, or a few more."
Wu Huaiyu really wanted to say, do you think this is shopping for groceries?
Just pick whatever you want.
In comparison, Li Mohui is indeed a little less calm than Kedu. Of course, maybe this is the way he shows it deliberately, or it is a gesture.
These barbarian kings, if you really treat them as barbarians with well-developed limbs and simple minds, you will suffer a big loss.
"Kedu proposes that after the year, the Anton Protectorate will take the lead, and Xi Khitan Turks and others will jointly send troops to attack Shanbei Xi. What do you Khitans think?"
"It's time to fight," Mo Hui said actively. "Those who disobey the king's orders should be destroyed. We, the Eight Khitan tribes, have 40,000 troops and are willing to send troops south to destroy them for the Tang Dynasty."
