Riding and chopping: Overlord of the Han and Hungarians

Chapter 160 Chapter 159
On the day of the wedding, Zhang Qi accepted Zhang Guang and Qing Hua's kneeling and kowtowing as the elders of his mother's parents.

After the husband and wife bowed to each other and were sent to the bridal chamber, the smile on Zhang Qi's face gradually faded, he glanced at Lu Mu, and the latter left quietly.

There are a total of 300 people in the welcoming team including NPCs, of which more than 100 people are arranged by Zhang Qi for Qinghua. Those people have enough experience and clean identities. The identities of the Han people who were originally from Liaodong were an excellent cover-up.

Lu Mu's departure was naturally to arrange these. After the people who weaved the net and left in Liaodong were exchanged with those in the welcoming team, these more than 100 people quietly became the Han people near Xiangping.

As for Zhang Qi himself, he had already appeared in the inner courtyard of the prefect's mansion at this time, and Zhang Yi, who entertained the guests, sat opposite him with a red face.

The two chatted happily over wine.

"Qi, it would be great if there were excellent generals like you in the Han Dynasty. Unfortunately, the Han Dynasty has been in power for seventy years, but it has been weak for seventy years. Alas."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Yi glanced at Zhang Qi, then raised his glass to the brim.

Regarding the deep meaning in Zhang Yi's words, Zhang Qi understood after a little savoring. This old guy had lost trust in the Han Dynasty. No wonder he was so eager to marry his daughter because he didn't agree.

However, the in-law relationship was still formed. This kind of alliance relationship that has existed since ancient times and has had a good response made the two dare to speak more blatantly.

Zhang Qi smiled, toasted with Zhang Yi: "My sister is married to the son of the prefect, from now on Qi will call the prefect uncle."

"Hahaha, why not? For my nephew, the old man is generous and tight. If you want to talk to uncle, uncle will do it for you!"

Maybe it was because of the alcohol, Zhang Yi was a little bold, but his eyes looked at Zhang Qi brightly.

"Tuk-tuk-"

Zhang Qi casually covered the Kou desk case, and then said slowly: "There are some trivial matters that I need to trouble my uncle. I want to open up a business route from Liaodong to Chang'an. I wonder if uncle has a way?"

"This matter is not difficult. The Zhang family has a ready-made business route. Whether it is Shan Yuting or Chang'an City, Zhang's caravans come and go every year. I just ask the housekeeper to arrange it for you."

Zhang Yi waved his hand casually. This is the truth. For a big family that has been in Liaodong for a long time, the business route is not difficult for him. Otherwise, how could the Zhang family have enough wealth to control all the Liaodong Army.

Zhang Qi thanked him, and then asked: "Winter is coming, I wonder if my uncle might help me buy a batch of grain and grass. You also know that there are a lot of people in my place, and I have some problems with eating and drinking recently."

The people hired and those who greeted relatives have all been to Wuhuan, so Zhang Qi believes that Zhang Yi absolutely knows his situation there.

"I heard that Qi Nai is a great talent, and he has gathered hundreds of thousands of people in a short period of time. The old man has already thought that Zhang's caravan should raise food and grass in various counties, and send hundreds of thousands of stones to Wuhuan in a month's time. , to solve the burning coal for you.

but"

Zhang Yi said with a meaningful glance at Zhang Qi: "I heard that Qi built a city in Wuhuan, what is the purpose of this move?"

Zhang Qi smiled: "The Huns are fierce. Without the convenience of the city wall, the poor people I gathered would be completely exposed to swords and soldiers. I am not afraid of my uncle's jokes. I am always careful and kind, and I hate human tragedies the most. gone."

"Oh, Qi Ke wants to build the city wall faster. I heard that the two tribes of Zuo Wang are very violent now, and the tribes east of the curtain are in dire straits recently."

Zhang Qi raised his eyebrows: "Well, then I have to be more careful, alas, it's late at night, and my nephew won't disturb my uncle's rest, so I retreat first."

Zhang Yi stood up hehe, and sent Zhang Qi outside the door: "I'm old, I'm not as strong as a young man, those uncles who are food and grass will be sent to Wuhuan as soon as possible."

Zhang Qi nodded, and pretended to be resentful as he walked, "Uncle is a great talent, and he is in his prime now, but it's a pity that Emperor Han has no eyes. If Qi is Emperor Han, uncle is also a prince."

"Hahaha, how can Qi say that, the old man doesn't have that talent."

"There is no need to underestimate uncle, Qi believes that there will be a day."

As Zhang Qi's figure disappeared into the corner of the porch, his last words also reached Zhang Yi's ears.

With his hands behind his back, Zhang Yi stood outside the door for a long time, looking at the bright moon, he stroked his long beard: "Your Majesty!"

The next day, Qing Hua followed Zhang Guang and served tea to Zhang Yi and his wife.

After Zhang Yi happily took it over, he handed a wooden box to Qinghua: "From now on, we will be a family. You and Guang'er live a happy life. If you need anything, you can talk to Chan'er. Mom can even talk to the old man. Don't worry." Don't think of yourself as an outsider."

Qing Hua nodded shyly, called her father and mother, and then went to other courtyards to meet the ceremony.

Zhang Qi's house, after waking up from sleep, he called Lu Mu.

"Your Majesty."

Zhang Qi nodded and washed under the costumes of the female soldiers.

"Send a letter back to Wuhuan, asking those spies to stop their activities on the grassland, leaving only the nets for scouting news. In addition, let all the spies travel to Liaodong, bring Wuhuan's syrup and salt, and follow Zhang's instructions. The caravan went to the Central Plains and Shan Yuting."

"promise!"

Lu Mu took the lead and left. Zhang Qi and Zhang Yi talked late into the night last night. When he came back, he was already sleepy. However, after waking up, he understood Zhang Yi's reminder last night immediately. It's on the prairie.

As for when they will cross the Greater Xing'an Mountains and come to the Northeast Plain, Zhang Qi thinks it will not be this year, everyone is equal under the heavy snow, Yi Zhixie and Yu Dan are not so stupid yet.

However, the investigation still needs to be investigated. Hu Shui robbed the tribes of the two kings this time, and let the spies and merchants return to Wuhuan in advance. The army brushed shoulders and was able to return to Wuhuan unscathed.

After washing, Zhang Qi put on his clothes and came to the courtyard. Zhang Yi's attitude last night was already obvious, but it was not enough. Zhang Qi understood these big clans very well. He wouldn't reveal any explicit desire for dominance.

Build walls high, accumulate grain, and slowly become king.

After understanding Zhang Yi's thoughts, a few days later, after Zhang Qi and Qing Hua met once, they left Liaodong. On the way home, spies and merchants had formed several caravans. Ying Chi's soldiers have already returned to camp, this time they are going with Zhang's caravan, and they don't need elite guards.

"You all know what to do when you are outside, absorb those poor people, and build a stronghold for weaving a network. Within a year, I want to see an intelligence network that spans five counties."

"For Your Majesty! A worthy death!"

The spies and merchants had fiery eyes, and with the deep car marks, they embarked on the road, and Zhang Qi and the others also rode back to Wuhuan.
