Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 246
Just when Meng Huo thought he was about to be torn to pieces by the envious and jealous tribal leaders, Liu Chan spoke again: "Although this scroll is enshrined in the Meng family, it is shared by all ethnic groups in Nanzhong, and any clan needs to perform sacrifices. The Meng family should cooperate, otherwise it will be the enemy of all tribes."

The eyes of the leaders of various clans softened a little after hearing the words, and after calming down, it seemed that this was indeed the best choice.

The Meng family can talk to almost all the Yi tribes in Nanzhong, and has a high reputation. At the same time, his Meng family also has the most contacts with the Han people in Nanzhong. It is indeed the best choice for contacting Han and Yi.

And Liu Chan also considered the arrangement. These leaders valued these picture scrolls so much, not to mention that those who got the picture scrolls would get Nanzhong, at least they would gain great prestige because of it.

If it is given to a powerful clan with some ability, such as the Kunming clan of Prince Pu, it is inevitable that they will use the invisible strength brought by the picture scroll to further expand.

And if it was given to a small tribe, it would be impossible to keep it.

The Meng family is not the case. They seem to have a high reputation, but the family lost a lot in the battle of Dianchi. He then brought Meng Huo and Meng Yan to Chengdu as officials, and regularly sent people to select outstanding children of the Meng family to go to the central government...

Even though his Meng family's prestige is high, but because the head of the family has been in Chengdu for a long time, the group has no leader, so it is difficult to rebel like this time.

This move can also reflect the importance he attaches to the barbarians, setting the Meng family as a model, proving that barbarians can also enter the central government and become high-ranking officials.

Guarantee the political status and demands of the Yi people, and start from the four aspects of politics, people's livelihood, economy, and belief, and tie the Yi people's ethnic groups to themselves more firmly.

After a long time, we will finally realize the vision of Han and Barbarians sharing the same love, and South China and China never going back against each other.

Judging by Meng Huo's appearance on the picture scroll just now, he should also attach great importance to it, and he might be grateful to himself for it, but he can't say no...

【孟获好感度+10、+10、+10、+10】（55）

【…】

[Meng Huo's favorability is 50, constitution +8 (additional increase in toxin resistance), sword talent +6, and the characteristic "Vega Siyi"]

[Vaiga Siyi]: It is easier to gain the favor of foreign friends, and it is easier to make foreign enemies fear.

Just when I thought of this, the screen on the lower right side of my field of vision has already begun to swipe.

Meng Huo knelt down on one knee in a more solemn posture than when he surrendered in the study a few days ago, stroked his chest with his right hand and said, "The prince trusts me so much. I, Meng Jiading, will fight to the death to protect the sacred objects of the barbarians for generations. I will never regret it."

Liu Chan took the scroll and handed it over with his own hands.

Meng Huo kept his kneeling posture, raised his hands above his head respectfully, and took the scroll with a slight trembling.

Then he got up slowly, and solemnly said to the leaders of all ethnic groups: "Everyone, from today onwards, the belief inheritance of the various tribes of the Yi people in Southwest China also has their own sacred objects!"

"Oh--!"

Everyone couldn't help shouting excitedly, and then respectfully bowed to Meng Huo. What they worshiped was not Meng Huo, but the scroll in his hand.

After the worship, everyone felt that this was too hasty, so they asked for a grand ceremony to welcome the scroll back.

"Such a great ceremony requires the blood sacrifice of the head of the bravest warrior." A patriarch said suddenly.

Liu Chan frowned.

"Not bad, not bad, it must be the head of the most valiant warrior to be worthy of such a grand ceremony."

"That's right."

The patriarchs of several Han clans also showed some contempt on their faces, as if they were saying that barbarians are barbarians, and they are not worthy to sit with them after all.

However, the leaders of the various ethnic groups didn't feel that there was anything wrong or cruel. For them, this was a custom that had been passed down for many years, and for the warriors who were about to be beheaded, it was also a supreme honor.

But Liu Chan knew that if he wanted Han and Yi to gradually communicate and understand, he had to change these customs of killing people at every turn.

Zhuge Liang was also prepared for this, and said with a smile at this time: "Everyone, Liang Su heard that there is a practice of curse alliance among the tribes. Now that you and I have agreed that the Han and Yi are the same, Liang is willing to carry out this curse alliance with the leaders. Never give up, okay?"

The curse alliance is the most formal alliance among the Southwestern Yi. Once an alliance is formed, it will never be changed. If they break the alliance, they will be cursed back. They firmly believe that those who break the alliance will die horribly and bring disaster to their children and grandchildren.

Hearing the words, the leaders stopped discussing the blood sacrifice for the time being, and said one after another: "Mr. Zhuge doesn't think we are vulgar, and is willing to form a curse alliance with us. I can only wish for it!"

From their point of view, Zhuge Liang, as an angel, is still willing to form a curse alliance with him, which is to put down his dignity and treat them as equals, and they are naturally delighted and grateful.

Zhuge Liang laughed again: "Since Han and Yi are the same, should the customs of both Han and Yi be taken into account in the ceremony, instead of just following the customs of one family?"

"Uh... Military Master Zhuge's words are reasonable, so I don't know how to act?"

"The practice of blood sacrifice not only hurts the lives of the barbarians, but also scares the people of the Han family. It is really not conducive to the repair of the two parties." Zhuge Liang clapped his hands, and a waiter outside brought in a wooden tray, "In Liang's opinion, it is better to use this as a substitute." So, how?"

What Zhuge Liang Lufan pointed out was that on the wooden plate was a human head pinched with flour, which had already been steamed and was still steaming.

After husking like this, it is ground into wheat flour, and finally made into fine pastry. It is naturally common in later generations, but at this time, especially in Nanzhong, which is short of food, it is definitely a luxury.

Given the current situation in Nanzhong, it's really hard to say which value of this thing is higher than that of a human head...but it's definitely not considered blasphemy.

"That's fine, just follow Zhuge Junshi."

The leaders of the various ministries readily agreed.

So an extraordinarily grand ceremony of gifting paintings was held in the courtyard. The ceremony was presided over by Liu Chan himself, and at the same time completed the curse alliance between the leaders of the various tribes of the barbarians and Zhuge Liang. Sworn alliance in front of the "Holy Object" scroll.

Finally, the face-made human head was used to sacrifice to the gods, and the ceremony was completed.

After toasting with the leaders of various clans, it was almost dark, and everyone returned to the hall one after another to prepare for discussion.

On the way, Liu Chan asked Zhuge Liang with a smile, "I didn't expect Uncle Zhuge to make such preparations. This alliance with the leaders of various ministries has added another layer of guarantee for the stability of Nanzhong."

Zhuge Liang said: "This move is also thought of after listening to the collection of Yi people's inheritance. I only hope that the southerners will return to their hearts from now on and stop fighting with us forever."

"Does that pinched head have a name?" Liu Chan asked curiously.

Zhuge Liang thought about it, and then smiled and said: "Since it is the head of the barbarians, why not call it 'barbarian head'."

"Steamed buns?!" Liu Chan was shocked.

Zhuge Liang wondered: "Why, what's wrong with this name?"

"Uh... no, it's very good." Liu Chan said awkwardly.

Good guy, is this how the steamed buns come from?

……

After a busy day, Liu Chan only felt that he had done a lot of things, but when he looked at it again, he hadn't started any of the serious things he wanted to talk about, and he was a little speechless.

However, the subsequent negotiations went smoothly beyond Liu Chan's imagination.

Regarding the matter of re-dividing the four counties of Nanzhong into six counties, the leaders agreed without waiting for him to finish explaining the benefits.

They all agreed, and those Han families naturally had no objection.

In fact, reclassifying it as six counties, although there are many advantages that Liu Chan said before, there are actually disadvantages for Nanzhong people.

That is, after the counties become smaller, it will be much more troublesome for the counties to rebel in series. It will be difficult to form such a large scale like this time, and it will be more convenient for the counties to supervise and kill the signs of rebellion in the cradle.

Of course, if you don't want to rebel, then this is a good thing.

I thought it would take a long time to argue about this matter, but I didn't expect it to go so smoothly after the foreshadowing.

After that, Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang discussed with them about sending people to help Nongsang, help various ministries carry out "economic transformation", and get rid of poverty and become rich.

The vigilance was greatly reduced, and the leaders who were enthusiastic with Liu Chan and others did not doubt that he was there, and they all agreed as soon as they heard it.

At the same time, Liu Chan also recognized the leadership authority of the leaders of the various tribes over their tribes on behalf of the court, and officially named the leaders of several big clans as kings.

For example, Kunming Wang Puwang Catu, Qingqiang King Huobu'eri and several others have all received official titles.

Later, Liu Chan promised that although they would return to the Han court in the future, the court would send people to investigate every year, and they would not have to pay taxes until they were self-sufficient.

This move naturally won another round of applause, and the atmosphere of the meeting reached its climax at this time.

Liu Chan saw the right time, and at this time stated the threat of the Cao Wei forces to the Han court, and focused on their bloody massacre and migration of Qiang and Di and other alien races, which attracted the leaders of all ethnic groups to share the same hatred.

Regarding Liu Chan's proposal to send young and strong members of the clan proportionally every year to accept the imperial court's enlistment for the Northern Expedition to fight against Cao Cao, he also agreed to it.

After that, the two sides talked about exchanging resources for resources, such as exchanging agricultural tools and seeds for cattle and war horses, and exchanging clothing and daily necessities for pills and lacquers of various tribes, and everything went very smoothly.

The first Nanzhong Nationalities Congress ended successfully in a harmonious and warm atmosphere.

The chiefs of the various tribes stayed in Dianchi Lake for several days, worshiping the sacred paintings every day, exchanging feelings with Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang, and then reluctantly left.

Everyone was very satisfied with the result, except Yong Kai, who was still in prison, had eaten worms and wild vegetables for a long time, and lost weight several times due to hunger...

He and his family will also usher in their own destiny.
