Chapter 1006 : Shentu came to see him and made the King of Qiongdu?
Chapter 1006: Shentu comes to see you and is granted the title of King of Qiongdu?
"Sir, Elder Shentu of the Xuhen Department wants to see you!"
Shen Chou's voice came out of the door a little unexpectedly, and Yun'er, who was enjoying the warmth in Shen Tang's arms, suddenly jumped up like a frightened rabbit!
Somewhat panicked, he replaced Shen Tang with hot tea, and then kissed Shen Tang shyly on the lips, "Master, Yun'er and Miss are waiting for you!"
After that, he turned around and headed back.
Shen Tang smiled softly, then calmed down and said, "Let him come in!"
Not long after, a slight sound of footsteps sounded outside the door. Shen Chou opened the door, and Shen Tumou smiled with him and walked in with some caution!
It should be said that Shentu Mou is a person who is inferior to one person and outnumbers ten thousand people in the Xuhen Department, but in front of Shen Tang, he always feels endless fear! Perhaps the impression given to them by the soldiers of the Song Dynasty was too cowardly. Therefore, Shen Tang's strength shown in the battle in Chengdu Mansion and his harsh treatment of various tribes made it impossible for him to be tough.
"Shen Tumou of the Xuhen Department, pay homage to His Excellency General Shen Tang..." After entering the door, Shen Tumou bowed respectfully to Shen Tang.
"Elder Shentu, long time no see! You and I are old friends, so you're welcome! Sit down!"
Shen Tumou's eyes twitched. If possible, who would be willing to become old friends with you! Don't you know that your reputation is even more terrifying than the ghosts in tribal legends?
Grinning, he sat on the chair next to Shen Tang with his buttocks bent!
"The little man was overjoyed when he found out that the master was coming! He rushed over from the clan overnight! Moreover, following the clan leader's order, he brought many gifts to the master and placed them outside the door! Please don't dislike it! "
Regardless of why Shen Tang is here, I don’t want to hit the smiling person, I’ll flatter him first and then I’ll talk!
"Elder Shentu is really polite. Although there was some misunderstanding between your Xuhen Department and Da Song Dynasty before, the matter has passed and I am very satisfied with your performance! Furthermore, in the Jiazong Department before, Elder Shentu But it helped me a lot! That is my wife’s mother clan, and Elder Shentu has given me Shen Tang a huge favor! Therefore, in my heart, other people don’t say it, but Elder Shentu must be My handsome friend!”
Shen Tumo was a little uncomfortable with Shen Tang's politeness. However, this was a good sign after all. Therefore, he quickly apologized and said, "Your Majesty, everyone in my Xuhen Department is respectful! I am the one who can serve you. It’s an honor to wait!”
"Hahaha!"
Shen Tang laughed loudly, "Come, drink tea!"
Shen Tumou nodded, picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He looked at Shen Tang's face carefully and saw that he was still kind, so he asked with a bit of anxiety, "General, there were troops stationed suddenly a few days ago. Here, today, the general has also arrived with the Heavenly Soldiers of the Song Dynasty. I wonder what the general has to do?"
"I have no other intentions, but our Xuhen Department is here and we know the surrounding tribal forces and areas very well. If the General has any need, everyone in our Xuhen Department is willing to serve for you! "
Shen Tang nodded, and then said slowly, "Well, I would like to thank the great elder for his kindness! Speaking of which, there is indeed something wrong with my coming here!"
"First, a few months ago, the Northwest Fifth Road was seriously flooded, and people everywhere were unstable! Fortunately, I was ordered by the emperor to inspect the Fifth Highway as an imperial envoy, and the situation was alleviated.
However, the imperial court received a secret report that the tribal forces in the Wumeng Mountain area are not stable, and in recent times, these tribes have been looting nearby state capitals. Therefore, the Holy Emperor issued an order for this commander to investigate and supervise the case. This matter!"
Shen Tang's words made Shen Tumou relax. Although the tribes in the Wumeng Mountain area were related to the tribes in Qiongbu Prefecture, the relationship between them was not good, and there were even many conflicts! Shen Tang suppressed Wu Meng. The tribes in the Mengshan area at least do no harm to their Xuehen Department!
"Secondly... some words are really hard to say! I have a deep relationship with my family, and the Jiazong tribe is the mother clan of the family! In recent times, thanks to the care of the Xuhen Department, the strength of the Jiazong tribe has increased a lot. few.
However, compared to other tribes, they are still extremely weak.
This is not true. In the recent period, the elders in the family have not written to me. Hey... Speaking of which, I can’t bear to make my family sad!"
After hearing this, Shen Tumou understood even more.
Obviously, the gentleman in front of me is also a hero who is in trouble with beauty! Before, the Jiazong tribe had no conditions and no other options. However, now that they have such a huge backer like Shen Tang, how can they continue to shrink?
In addition, there are people who turn a deaf ear every day. It is very likely that everything else this time is just an excuse. The real purpose of Shen Tang's coming is to suppress other tribes, increase the strength of the Jiazong tribe, and please the charming girl!
"The general is so tough and tender that even the villain can envy him!"
Shen Tumou said with an apologetic smile.
Shen Tang did not comment, but continued, "As for the third one, Elder Shentu also knows that although the tribes of this generation in southern Xinjiang are nominally attached to the Song Dynasty, everyone knows what it is like in reality.
Therefore, instead of continuing the chaos like this, it is better to get close to one of the tribes and let this tribe help the Song Dynasty manage the many tribes in southern Xinjiang!"
At this point, Shen Tang stopped talking, and Shen Tumou was shocked in his heart! If the Song Dynasty really leaned towards a certain tribe, not to mention whether it could suppress the entire southern Xinjiang, at least its strength would be greatly increased.
Moreover, with an upright identity, he would have a suitable excuse to conquer other ethnic groups.
"Sir, this..."
Shen Tang ignored Shentu Mou's words, but lowered his voice and said, "I have received your majesty's secret decree and the order of the Privy Council to select a clan in the southern Xinjiang. At that time, the Song Dynasty will canonize its clan leader as the King of Qiongdu and support this move. The leader of a clan becomes the new 'Great Ghost Lord of the City'."
Hearing the two titles from Shen Tang's mouth, Shen Tumou's heart almost jumped out of his chest! The tribes in southern Xinjiang are basically similar and have similar beliefs. They all have great ghost masters. To put it bluntly, they are the common masters of many tribes.
As for the title of King Qiongdu, it has a long history! Before the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Central Plains Dynasty conferred the title of King Qiongdu in southern Xinjiang to govern the barbarian tribes in southern Xinjiang.
However, after the Song Dynasty, the control of this generation in southern Xinjiang was too weak, so this title naturally ended without any problem!
It is no exaggeration to say that if we can get the canonization and support of the Song Dynasty, then we can at least become a truly powerful clan in the entire southern Xinjiang! It would even be possible to truly recreate the grand occasion of King Qiongdu back then.
