A Good Landlord in the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Yuan Cong

Chapter 561

Li Pidi boasted that his sister should only exist in the sky.

"What's your sister's name?"

"Pearl,"

"Han name?"

"Well, my sister's biological mother is a Han Chinese and a royal princess."

The tiger-headed and tiger-brained prince of the Xi clan didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his sister becoming the adoptive father's concubine, nor did he feel that his generation was messed up. After marrying the adoptive father, he still called his sister.

I don’t know what Kedu was thinking about naming his son Pi Di.

Could it be that he wants his son to inherit the position of King Xi when he grows up in the future, and rival the Great Emperor of the Central Plains?
"Let me change your name. The name of the Han family has to be taboo. Words such as gods, ghosts, immortals, Buddha, emperor, dragon and phoenix are not suitable for names.

Let me change the word for you, rival it. "

The little fat man doesn't care whether his name is Pidi or Bidi. He just came to Youzhou from outside the Great Wall, and he just feels that everything is very novel. He likes this place very much, and also likes his adoptive father's other adopted sons and students.

I think they are very interesting, and each of them is very capable.

"Please foster father give me another name."

"Let's use the word Siqian."

"Thank you stepfather for giving me the word."

Although the little fat man's father, Ke Du Zhe, is a very well-off man, but the little fat man is quite upright, answering whatever he asks.

Ningzhu's mother is Han. The little fat man said she was a princess, but her real surname was Xiao. It is said that she was the niece of Empress Yang Guang Xiao's family. She went there, but she was neither conferred the title of princess nor changed her surname.

After Mrs. Xiao arrived in the grassland, she gave birth to two sisters, Ningzhu and Hanzhu. She raised and educated the two sisters very carefully, teaching them Chinese characters, even piano, 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 Brother Ku, 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, who was born in the Xiao family of Lanling. Communication problem.

He took a collection of his poems, a jade pendant, and some gold and silver ornaments, silk and satin, and asked the little fat man to hand them over to Xiao Ningzhu for him.

The saver smiled when he saw what his son had brought.

"The teacher said that he will come to pick up people tonight, and there will be a big banquet for the guests."

Madam Xiao picked up the Qingyang poetry collection 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 injustice. It’s much better than marrying a tribal prince who only knows how to bend a bow and shoot eagles.”

The saver 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 better than them. You are King Xi who can compose poems, both literary and martial arts," Mrs. Xiao praised him all the time, which made Kedu very happy. Since the Xiao family came to Xi's department, it has been more than ten years. , but Xiao and Kedu get along very well.

Mrs. Xiao didn't dislike Kedu, and Kedu would never treat her rudely.

It's a bit of a feeling of respect as a guest.

"Your Majesty really wants to use troops against Shanbei Xi?" Xiao asked.

"Well, these people toast and don't eat fine wine, and now they are so arrogant that they don't even recognize me as King Xi, so what else can I say, it's gone. In the past two years, there have been many noisy voices in the tribe. , this time we suffered a big loss following Tuli, and there are more people who want to deal with me overtly and secretly,

If that's the case, then it's better to start a killing spree. "

"It's born from the same root, so why rush each other?" Xiao reminded.

But those who could be saved just laughed.

"You have been in Xi's department for more than ten years. Don't you know that Fanhu outside the Great Wall actually has a very different concept from the Central Plains people? These Beishan Xi, I regard them as clansmen, but they may not regard me as clansmen."

"If I don't use thunder now, I'm afraid I, Mohofer, won't be able to sit still. When there will be chaos, the price I will pay will be even greater." The survivor sighed.

If a tribe cannot have a strong and authoritative leader, there will be civil strife, and then foreign enemies will take advantage of it. At that time, it is the time for the whole tribe to be bullied, but many people are short-sighted and simply Can't see these, only know blindly fighting for power and profit.

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.

Kedu is not afraid of others saying that he is a dog for Tang people.

What does it matter to be a dog? It depends on who it is 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 Wuhan University didn't understand etiquette. After all, the daughter was sent to the door by her husband on her own initiative, and she was just a concubine.

"Aye doesn't have anything to give you as a dowry. I'll give you a thousand horses and three thousand sheep as a dowry."

Kedu still doted on his daughter, 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.

Yacheng is also lively.

Wu Huaiyu, Duke of Yi, governor of Youzhou, took as his concubine the daughter of Lord Loufan, Governor of Rao Le. It was a beautiful thing.

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.

"A thousand horses and three thousand sheep can be used as a dowry? Fanhu is really a fanhu. Give some livestock."

"Such a lot of livestock are also very valuable. A good horse in Youzhou costs tens of thousands of dollars, but a thousand horses cost no more than 1000 million yuan, and a leg of mutton in Youzhou costs tens of dollars."

"You also said that this is the price of horses in Youzhou. This is still a good horse. If it is in Xidi, a horse is estimated to be several thousand dollars."

"You're so breathless. Even if it costs a few thousand horses, the thousand horses are worth millions. There are still three thousand sheep."

The melon-eating people were red-faced arguing over irrelevant things.

However, the thousand horses and three thousand sheep that King Xi married his daughter will not be seen by everyone for the time being. The horses and sheep have been fattened up, and they will be sent after the summer and autumn cool.

A team of Yeluohe Xi clan knights escorted a Xi convoy and sent the Princess Ningzhu to the Dudu's Mansion.

The host and guest had a good time, and there was 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 never have expected that the saver could move so fast.

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 are the vanguard, and they are the chief governor to wipe out Beishan Xi's rebels who refused to accept the order of the Great Tang King."

"The one who can save you really said that?"

"Yes, he said that 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 of the Xi tribe make those skulls into drowning vessels for the governor to use."

The young Mo Hui couldn't help but be amazed after hearing this, "This guy is really not that ruthless."

"Beishan Xi, that's also their Xi department."

"Xi people have always been like this, and our Khitans are brothers of the same species as them, but these years we have been bullied by them, they often plundered the livestock of our Khitan tribe, and took our population as slaves. Did Xi Ren beat him?
Now the new eight departments still have their old enmity books. "

It is said that Xi Qidan has the same origin, and they are all descendants of the integration of the Xiongnu and the Xianbei Yuwen Department. They nomadic among the pines and deserts, but the relationship is not very good. Because Xi is close to the Central Plains, he has the benefits of trade, and the handicraft industry is also more advanced. is also better,
So Xi people often plundered them, oppressed them, and sometimes even led the Central Plains people to beat them.

Back in the Sui Dynasty, Khitan refused to obey the Sui Dynasty, and Sui general Wei Yunqi borrowed Turkic soldiers to attack Khitan, and Xi Ren acted as their guide, this group of horsemen.

In recent years, Khitan formed the new eight tribes, and after recuperating, their strength has recovered, and many tribes have also begun to retaliate against Xi people.

Both Su Zhi and Keduzhe are very good at fighting.

The relationship between Khitan and Xi has also eased, and Kedu even betrothed his daughter Hanzhu to Mohui's son Kuge.
It is rare for the two races to advance and retreat together.

For example, they joined forces with Tuli to fight against Tuli, then defected together, and then attached themselves to the Tang Dynasty together.

But now Kedu Zhe did not discuss with Khitan, so he promised his daughter to Wu Huaiyu as a concubine.

Shouldn't we discuss this kind of thing together?

You have a daughter, but I don't?

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 him to the governor.
"Khitan is willing to give a thousand horses, a thousand cows, and a thousand sheep as dowry."

Wu Huaiyu looked at Dahe Mohui, who 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 let me raise a child and a daughter-in-law.

"Guo surnamed Gong, Qianyuan is too small. The relationship between us doesn't need to be like this."

Mo Hui said repeatedly, "Actually, I'm not too young. I can have a baby in three or four years at most."

It's too animal.

"It's really unnecessary."

The Khitan is now known as the eight tribes, with [-] troops, and its strength is not much weaker than that of the Xi tribe.

"I still have a lot of younger sisters. If the governor thinks that my daughter is young, the governor can choose any of my sisters, even a few more."

Wu Huaiyu really wanted to say, do you think this is grocery shopping?

Also pick at will.

In comparison, this Li Mohui is indeed a little less calm than the Keduzhe. Of course, maybe this is his intentional appearance, or a gesture.

These barbarian kings, if you really treat them as barbarians with strong limbs and simple minds, you will suffer a lot.

"Kedu proposes that after the year, the Anton Protectorate will take the lead, and the Xi Khitan Turks and others will jointly send troops to attack Shanbei Xi. What do you Khitan think?"

"We should fight," Mohui said positively, "Those who disobey the king's order should be exterminated. I have [-] troops from the eight Khitan tribes, and I am willing to send troops to the south to exterminate them for the Great Tang."
