Eastern Jin Dynasty: My powerful father

Chapter 266: Not a good match
The look of Murong Ying crying was really pitiful.

Huan Xi wiped the tears from her eyes and said:
"Sui'er is your child, that is, my child. As a parent, giving him a lift is what you should do. How can you say it is an unkind request?"

Huan Xi's words were so sincere that Murong Ying heard them and felt happy in her heart.

She really felt that she had met her beloved in this life, and the eyes she looked at Huan Xi were full of affection and affection, without caring about the presence of outsiders.

Huan Xi looked at He Naci again and asked:
"What are the plans of the Helan tribe in the future? Will the whole family move south, or will they continue to stay north of Yinshan Mountain?"

According to Huan Xi's idea, he naturally hopes that the Helan tribe will move to the Hetao area.

The Hetao is very big, and he doesn't care about having one more Helan tribe. Once the Helan tribe moves south, Huan Xi can also strengthen his control over it. After all, if they are allowed to stay north of Yinshan Mountain, they will inevitably be beyond their reach sometimes.

To the north of Yinshan Mountain, it was too far away from the Guanzhong area, the core of Huanxi's rule.

But now the Helan tribe's surrender has not yet been revealed, and Huan Xi does not want to show too much force and mess up the matter.

Therefore, he gave the Helan tribe the right to choose. Of course, Huan Xi had an idea of ​​how the Helan tribe would choose.

"Sun Tzu's Art of War" says: If you eat the enemy's one bell, you will be my enemy's twenty bells.

Just when Huan Xi was ready to meet some of Helan's harsh conditions, he heard He Na stabbing:
"I have a sister named Muro, who is twelve years old and has been regarded as the apple of my father's eye since she was a child.

Of course, Liu Wuhuan and Liu Yan were able to become kings mainly because they submitted early. At that time, there were not so many Xianbei tribes under Huan Xi's command.

As the first major tribe among the six major tribes to betray the Fu clan, the Helan tribe will undoubtedly become the target of public criticism as soon as the news spreads. Instead of bearing the pressure alone in the north of Yinshan Mountain, how can it be easier to go south.

After all, in the system of kings, people with different surnames cannot be called kings; within the Nine Provinces, high nobility cannot pass the public, and as for Rong and Di, this will not be the case.

Liu Wuhuan, Liu Kuantou and others had no more than 10,000 tents under their command, but they could still be called good kings. The Helan tribe had 35,000 tents, so how could He Laitou not be the king?

"In response to the great Chanyu, the Helan tribe also has a merciless request."

The truth is the same. With such temptation in front of you, no matter what conditions you cannot agree to, even if He Naci wants to ask for a prince for his father, Huan Xi can ask the Queen Mother for him.

With Huan Xi here to support him, could it be that the Fu clan now dared to send troops to Hetao to pursue the Helan tribe.

"When my parents got a daughter, they would inevitably spoil her, so they developed a stubborn temper.

Huan Xi was overjoyed and was about to give orders to hold a banquet when he heard He Naci continue:

But if you think about it carefully, as long as you can win over the Helan tribe, it means that you have 35,000 more accounts, while the Fu family has 35,000 less accounts.

Huan Xi frowned when he heard this. He mistakenly thought that Helanbu wanted to negotiate some terms with him.

"As the saying goes, a man should marry when he is young, and a girl should marry when she is young. My father was very concerned about her marriage, and there was an endless stream of people coming to the Helan tribe to ask for her hand in marriage.

As expected, He Naci said without hesitation:
"Since the Helan tribe has surrendered to the Great Chanyu, even if there are thousands of mountains and rivers blocking it, they should risk their lives and come to the Great Chanyu's tent to listen to him."

“There are many young handsome men on the grassland, but it’s a pity that my sister-in-law can’t take notice of any of them. She once threatened that she would not marry anyone who is not a hero.

"The Great Chanyu is a hero in this world. My sister-in-law has admired him for a long time and is willing to serve the Great Chanyu.

"My sister-in-law knew that I was coming, so she asked my father for marriage. My father had no choice but to agree to the matter, and threw the problem to me.

"I have the courage to ask the great Dan Yu to take the daughter of the He family as my concubine, in order to reassure the Helan tribe." Huan Xi did not expect that what the Helan tribe proposed was not harsh conditions at all, but that he wanted to give him a woman. According to the age Well, it should be a girl.

Of course, this matter does not bring any psychological pressure to Huan Xi. The worst he can do is to keep him at home, just like Zhang Yu'er, and it will not be too late to perform the ceremony of husband and wife when he is older.

Murong Ying on the side had already grimaced when He Naci mentioned He Muluo.

No one wants their man to keep bringing women into his home, even if Murong Ying is just a concubine.

The previous plan to bring Huan Xi and Tuoba Yan together was just a way for Murong Ying to consolidate his favor.

She had a dark face and looked at He Nazai with a pair of beautiful eyes filled with anger, wishing to cut him into pieces.

But after all, she was just a concubine. On the issue of Huan Xi taking concubines, only three people, Huan Wen, Sima Xingnan and Xie Daoyun, could have a say.

However, this is related to the surrender of the Helan tribe, so Huan Xi will naturally not discuss it with Huan Wen and others.

Although Huan Xi didn't believe He Naci's lies about He Muluo falling in love with him.

People say that once you meet Yang Guo, you will miss him for life, but you must at least meet him before you miss Yang Guo for life.

Huan Xi and He Muluo were strangers. How could He Muluo not marry him? He only wanted to be Huan Xi's concubine.

However, even though he knew these were all lies, Huan Xi still acted very happy, which was in sharp contrast to Murong Ying beside him.

As for He Muluo's appearance, Huan Xi didn't care at all. He was not marrying He Muluo, but Helan tribe's thirty-five thousand men.

Even if He Muluo is an ugly woman, Huan Xi still has to welcome her in. Anyway, the family has a big business and they don't care about providing one more person with good clothes and food.

Of course, the target was a twelve-year-old girl after all, so Huan Xi couldn't be too positive. He pretended to be embarrassed and said:

"My sister and I are more than ten years apart. I'm afraid we are not a good match. This matter needs long-term consideration."

After saying that, he secretly winked at Deng Xia.

Deng Xia had followed Huan Xi for many years and knew him very well, so he immediately said:
"There are always only good female supporting heroes, and the age difference is not taken into account. If Liang Gong insists on refusing, I will be afraid that Helan will misunderstand and think that Liang Gong despises Hu Nu.

"I also ask Mr. Liang to put the overall situation first and not let down the Helan Department's good intentions."

Huan Xi heard this and said angrily:

"How have I ever despised Hu Nu! Isn't the Queen Mother a Xianbei woman?
"The same goes for you! As long as you share the same mind and heart with me, no matter you are a Jin, a Huns, or a Xianbei, you are all my brothers and blood relatives!"

Everyone kowtowed, but they also imitated Deng Xia and begged Huan Xi to agree to the marriage.

Even Murong Ying, even though she was not happy in her heart, could not give her any kind words.

Huan Xi had no choice but to agree half-heartedly:
"That's all, this matter will be done as requested by the Helan tribe. The marriage will be completed as soon as the Helan tribe goes south."

When everyone heard this, they all cheered. Seeing this scene, people who didn't know it thought they were going to be the groom.

As for Huan Xi, he stopped pretending and hurriedly called for people to prepare a banquet. He wanted to get drunk with He Naci tonight.
