Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 747 The feeling of heartbeat

"..."

Faced with Qian Hongchu's explanation, Jing Qiong actually felt that it made sense.

The gold and silver rockery has been melted and carved, and it is connected to the ground. How can it be moved without the strength of a thousand catties?

Qian Hongchu enthusiastically dragged Jing Qiong into the courtyard, and said: "Yesterday was a formal occasion, and you and I had a good time drinking, but after all, because His Majesty was by your side, it didn't make much sense. Today is at my house, don't talk about it." Other things, eat, drink, have fun, enjoy everything."

Jing Qiong was dragged by Qian Hongchu, and she also had a little doubt in her heart. It was the first time she came to Bianjing, why was King Jiaodong so enthusiastic about her?
Forget it, the soldiers will come to block the water and cover it with soil.

Jing Qiong was dragged by Qian Hongchu and walked to the depths of the courtyard.

Before walking more than ten steps, Jing Qiong heard Yingying Yanyan's voice in her ears.

Passing through the corridor, the eyes suddenly opened up, and there were more than [-] beauties playing in the spacious courtyard.Huanfeiyanshou, bright and gorgeous, Jing Qiong recalled what he had seen and heard along the way, and found that he had never met a man from the beginning to the end, and they were all beautiful women with excellent looks. Is this the legendary daughter country?
Qian Hongchu suddenly asked: "Khan, look, this courtyard is exquisite?"

"Ah!" Jing Qiong couldn't help nodding: "Exquisite..." He quickly glanced around and said, "It's really beautiful!"

Qian Hongchu said with a smile: "I live in Wuyue. Everything here in Bianjing is good, but the charm of the water town is a bit inferior. This place is built to imitate the Wuyue water town..."

Knowing that Jing Qiong's mind was not on the scenery, he clapped his hands and said loudly: "Today, the king is going to entertain distinguished guests. You all show your talents and show your housekeeping skills. If the guests are satisfied, the king will reward you a lot." .”

As he spoke, he asked Jing Qiong to sit down on the carpet inlaid with golden threads, and then said with a smile, "Do you know the two major characteristics of the East China Sea?"

Jing Qiong didn't know it. As a profuse sweater, he felt ashamed of his shameful knowledge.

Qian Hongchu explained: "One of the Silla maidservants, the Great Khan should have heard of it."

Jing Qiong nodded quickly. He had also heard about the three major characteristics of the Tang Dynasty in the past, Silla maidservants, Kunlun slaves, and Bodhisattvas.

Qian Hongchu said: "Actually, apart from Silla maidservants, Japanese girls also have special flavors..."

He waved.

In an instant, two beautiful girls came to Jing Qiong's side, one tall and one short, one gentle and sweet, and the other young and sweet.

It's just that the little girl is a little younger?
He is not a beast...

Qian Hongchu said, "Caijinzi, how old is this year?"

The young girl named Caijinzi said: "Nu 21!"

Jing Qiong's eyes widened, but she couldn't say a word, this appearance, this height?This face? twenty one?Eleven people believe it.

Qian Hongchu said: "I, Da Yu, is powerful all over the world, and I always have some short-sighted desires to be enemies with your majesty. The end will be death and the country will perish... Your majesty is benevolent, and has a heart of benevolence for most people. Blame the blame. However, some people who have committed the most heinous crimes are still unforgiving. Their wives and daughters are either rewarded to their subordinates, or sent to the Jiaofang Division. The singers in the mansion also come from this, and they are all over the world..."

While talking, the sound of silk and bamboo sounded.

Five Baiyi girls wearing silverware, bare-armed small gowns and a pair of round thighs under short skirts stepped into the stage lightly, and danced exotic dances accompanied by music.

"Come on, drink!"

Jing Qiong's eyes lingered on the field, and she didn't pay attention to the contents of the cup, and drank it down in one gulp.Warm wine enters the belly, a warm current flows over the heart, and the aroma of almonds is in the mouth, which makes people feel comfortable all over.

"This wine..." Jing Qiong looked at the contents of the glass with some surprise.

Cai Jinzi, a girl with a childlike face, served Jing Qiongman a glass again, and said, "This is lamb wine, which is different from ordinary five-grain wine. Cheng. The taste is mellow, and it can also replenish vitality."

Jing Qiong really felt that her head was getting bigger, and praised: "Good wine!"

"Let's try this Xiaoling Sunburn again. It's made from lamb heart meat and magpie tongue. It's delicious and smooth..."

Silla's maid served food with a golden spoon very thoughtfully...

Red curd, tendon head spring, soft beef intestines with flowers, donkeys stuffed with warm cold flowers, soft-shelled turtles everywhere, flying in the sky, walking on the ground, swimming in the water, many delicacies that Jingqiong has never heard of or seen, in Yujie , Lori's left and right service, taste one by one...

Eating delicious food in your mouth, enjoying the singing and dancing performed by alluring singers from all over the world, the taste makes people linger and forget to return.

Looking at Qian Hongchu who was teasing with the beauty in his arms, Jing Qiong's eyes flashed with envy.

He himself is also a person who loves to enjoy himself very much. Ganzhou is located in the important place of the Silk Road, and can also enjoy the convenience brought by the east-west trade route. The country is extremely rich.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to pay tribute to the court at least twice a year for the sake of peace. The offerings were still famous horses, camels, beautiful jade, amber, green wild horses, ermine furs, antelope horns, yak tails, diamonds, Buddha teeth, precious stones, etc. High-level tributes such as utensils, corals, iron sword armor, and glass vessels.

Jing Qiong's daily life is also extremely extravagant, but compared with Qian Hongchu today, I feel that the so-called extravagance can only be described by the word shabby, and I suddenly feel uncomfortable. Thinking of the future of Ganzhou Uighurs, everything in front of me is not good. .

I have reached this age, the eldest son Jingli is unwilling to go back to inherit the family business, the second son is disabled and has a withdrawn personality, which is far from enough to convince the public.The third son is fierce, brave, and has a bad temper. If he was born in troubled times, with his arrogance, he could attract a group of warriors to accompany him and gain a foothold.

But now in this world, the great danger is at its peak, and the land of Ganzhou has been reduced to a country within a country.

Ganzhou Uighurs are already meat on the knife board, and Dayu can swallow them at any time.The reason why he didn't take any action was because he kept lowering his status and pandering to him over the years, so that Dayu couldn't find an excuse.

Ganzhou Uighurs have no future to speak of now, what Jing Qiong can do is to procrastinate, not to give Dayu a chance to attack, delay until the emperor Luo Youdu dies of illness, to gamble on the ability of the second and third generations of Dayu, and look for opportunities to break free cage.He himself would definitely not be able to consume Luo Youdu, and if he was replaced by the third child, he would give Dayu a reason to swallow him before Dayu could provoke him.

A steady boss is the only choice...

but……

Thinking of the quarrel between my most beloved son and myself, what is the purpose of my own humiliation and persistence?
Just wait for the destruction of the Ganzhou Uighurs a hundred years later?
Instead of that, why not be like him!

Jing Qiong glanced at the chic Qian Hongchu, who was honored as a king with a different surname because he sacrificed Wu Yue, and walked sideways in Bianjing, living such a chic and happy life...

Luo Youdu, the emperor, doesn't say anything else, but it is generally accepted that he has a good nature and is not easy to kill.

Jing Qiong was really moved, suppressed this terrible thought, and asked: "Your Majesty loves hospitality so much, but I don't know why?"

Qian Hongchu said with a solemn face: "The Great Khan is really a straightforward person. He did not hide the truth from the Great Khan. A certain man is rich in the world and has both blessings and fortune. The only regret is that he failed to see the orthodox Mahayana Buddhism. I heard that the Great Khan has a wide network of people. If you can collect some Mahayana Buddhist scriptures from India, I will be very grateful."

Of course, this was an argument he thought of, but it was also some of his own thoughts.

Qian Hongchu is a devout Buddhist believer and really wants to do something for Buddhism.

Jing Qiong also suddenly realized that Dayu is now promoting Manichaeism in the west, and it is reasonable for Qian Hongchu to ask him to do this. He immediately agreed and enjoyed Qian Hongchu's hospitality with peace of mind.

Jing Qiong originally only planned to stay in Bianjing for ten days, but faced with Qian Hongchu's warm hospitality, Jing Qiong stayed for a full month and a half.

Qian Hongchu led Jing Qiong to experience the unpretentious life of Dayu nobles...

It wasn't until the procrastination couldn't go on that he reluctantly decided to return to Ganzhou.

Luo Youdu looked at Jing Qiong who bid farewell to him, and saw his reluctance, but he didn't say anything, he just told him to treat the people of Ganzhou kindly, as if to treat the people of Ganzhou as his own people.

Looking at Jing Qiong's disappearing figure, Luo Youdu remembered an old saying: It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality!

The reason why Luo Youdu has been maintaining a simple and luxurious life is that he is worried about the corruption of his mind and soul, at least he dare not indulge himself before the big event is completed.

"Your Majesty! Mrs. Huarui, please see me!"

Luo Youdu was about to sit down and review the memorial, when he heard Mrs. Huarui came, he immediately sent an order to let her in.

Mrs. Huarui shook her figure lightly, holding a big coat in her hand, "Your Majesty, the state affairs are heavy, and you have to pay attention to your body. The weather is getting colder, so I brought a leather coat for Your Majesty..."

Luo Youdu hugged Madam Huarui into his arms with a smile and said, "Madam is still considerate, the global climate is getting warmer, and I don't know how to wear clothes..."

Among the many concubines in the harem, Mrs. Huarui is the one who knows how to be considerate the most.

Looking at the robe on his body, Luo Youdu suddenly thought that the winter here in Bianjing came late, and now it was only half November, and it was cool, the Western Regions should have cooled down.
-
Xicheng, the capital of Khotan, and the Uyghur military camp in Gaochang.

The Lion King looked at the book numbly, feeling a little out of breath.

"Khan!" Balash's voice came from outside the house.

"Come in!"

A burly man from the northwest stepped inside and said with a complaining look on his face, "Khan, how long are we going to stay? Dayu really doesn't dare to fight, so let me take the lead. It's been more than two months. Not even a single siege. I can't stop complaining, and my bones are going to be stiff."

The fighting styles in different places are different, the productivity in the Western Regions is low, and labor is very precious.

They like to fight quickly in order to liberate the labor force, and rarely siege the city.

Occasionally, they also try to attack, and withdraw if they can't fight, and rarely die.

Especially in winter, the coldest here in the Western Regions can reach minus [-] degrees, and the living environment in the wild is harsh.

This year's winter came later than usual, but what was supposed to come had to come. How can we fight at that time?

A trace of doubt also flashed in the Lion King's eyes.

After the two armies joined together, Dayu let them watch the show, and then devoted himself to making siege equipment. With the wood prepared in advance, it took more than two months to make it.

It takes so many siege engines to fight just one west city?

Balash said mysteriously: "Khan, do you mean that Dayu dare not fight? Their power is all blown out?"
