Chapter 217 The Idea of ​​Assimilating Huihe

Chapter 227 The idea of ​​assimilating Huihe
Zhang Xuan was so furious that Zhang Xun couldn't help being a little terrified.I feel that Guo Min has escaped, and I have some responsibilities. I should have thought in advance that Guo Min would run away with a guilty conscience, and I should have been prepared to deal with it.

Zhang Xun sighed in his heart, and silently bowed down, "Great Governor, Guo Yi has absconded, and the next official cannot absolve himself of the blame. Please punish him!"

"Great Governor, let the subordinates lead people to capture Guo Min and hand it over to the Great Governor for disposal!"

Zhang Xuan remained silent, but slowly sat back down.

After a long time, Zhang Xuan waved his hands calmly and said, "Okay, Mr. Zhang, you don't have to do this. If this kid runs away, he can run away. Anyway, he can't run away from the temple. At most, he ran to Lingzhou. Is this official still afraid that he will fly into the sky?"

"Master Zhang, the matter is very important, you must handle it carefully. In this way, you go to ask about the situation, and then report the truth to the official."

"Yes, Chief Governor, I'll go right away as an officer."

Zhang Xun cupped his hands and left in a hurry.

Looking at Zhang Xun's leaving back, Zhang Xuan sighed softly and fell powerlessly on the couch.

What he was most worried about happened... He was not afraid of this kind of thing happening, but it was only happening to Guo Ziyi's son, which made him feel very troublesome.

He has never been the kind of person who is hesitant to look forward and backward. If it were someone else, he would have waved his hand and sent troops to arrest him for questioning. But it happened to be Guo Ziyi's son—from the very beginning, Guo Ziyi was him " If Guo Ziyi's son is dealt with as the most important person on the talent list, Guo Ziyi will not dare to say anything even if he can't, but after all, there is a grudge among the generals, and this grudge is likely to affect the overall situation in the future.

Zhang Xuan knows very well that the so-called selflessness and righteous killing of relatives are actually nonsense.As long as Guo Ziyi is still a person of flesh and blood, he will not destroy the humanity of father and son.

No matter how incompetent Guo Ji is, he is also his parent and son.

Zhang Xuan was very upset.

……

……

Hua Nuer stood outside the door and hesitated for a while, then pushed the door open and walked in, bringing in a cup of hot tea.

It is still Zhang Xuan's favorite and special tea.

"Drink some tea to quench the fire." Hua Nuer stuffed the teacup in Zhang Xuan's hand, her gesture was strangely gentle.

Man is a very complex emotional animal.After staying by Zhang Xuan's side for so long, her heart has slowly opened. The old female assassin who was wearing a gorgeous Taoist robe and holding a sword in her hand has disappeared without a trace, and replaced by a slightly confused and calm mind. Charming maid.

Of course, she is still an independent female guard who doesn't follow the rules and restraint very much.

Zhang Xuan raised his head and glanced at Hua Nuer, and sighed softly, "Hua Nuer, I suddenly feel very tired, help me squeeze."

Zhang Xuan didn't care whether Hua Nuer agreed or disagreed, so he put down the teacup in his hand, turned over and lay down on the bed, and slightly closed his eyes.

Hua Nuer sighed quietly, strode over, sat down, and then began to massage Zhang Xuan's body with her hands.

Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, enjoying Hua Nuer's relaxing massage, and moaned comfortably.

Hua Nuer was thinking a lot, and she could tell that Zhang Xuan was indeed exhausted.

She was a little confused, in Longshuo, Zhang Xuan was the Emperor of the Earth, he could do whatever he wanted, there was nothing to worry about.As for Guo Min's matter, it's not a big deal, whether to deal with it or not, and to what extent it's all a matter of his words, who dares to dissatisfy?Why bother yourself so much!
After hesitating for a while, Hua Nuer couldn't help but said softly, "Guo Ziyi and the others have been in Longshuo for many years, and they have a deep foundation in military power. If you let Guo Yi go this time, will you let the Longshuo army The soldiers think you are afraid of Guo Ziyi, a local snake..."

Zhang Xuan's whole body trembled slightly, he suddenly turned his head to look at Hua Nu'er's charming and reddish face, startled.

What Hua Nuer said obviously made Zhang Xuan feel enlightened.He has been thinking about how to take care of Guo Ziyi's face, but he has inadvertently neglected that this matter is also related to his supreme prestige as the governor.

As soon as Zhang Xuan thought about this, he sat up with a jerk, his eyes gleaming with determination, "You are right——Hua Nuer, go and send someone to find Zhang Xun for me."

Hua Nuer nodded, and went out to call the soldiers to call Zhang Xun.

Zhang Xun had just had a deep talk with Prince Ge Le of Huihe, and at the same time asked several other Huihe people to formally confirm Ge Le's identity and the ins and outs of the matter.

He sent someone to help Ge Le take a bath and clean, changed into a suit of clothes, and then asked someone to carry Ge Le to meet Zhang Xuan.On the way, I met the soldiers sent by Hua Nuer.

Outside the door of Zhang Xuan's bedroom and study, Zhang Xun led people to carry Ge Le to see Hua Nuer who was guarding the door.

Although Hua Nuer has no official position, and is a generation of women, all the subordinates around Zhang Xuan know that Hua Nuer is highly skilled in martial arts, and she is a person with a special status around Zhang Xuan, so they dare not neglect her. .

Zhang Xun cupped his hands to Hua Nuer, "I don't know the governor..."

Hua Nuer smiled, "I'm waiting for Mr. Zhang inside."

……

……

Ge Le lay on the wooden plank, cheered up and bowed his hands, "Gele pays homage to the governor! Ge Le is unwell and cannot fully salute, please forgive me by the governor!"

Zhang Xuan smiled softly, "Your Highness Ge Le, you don't need to be too polite... I feel very uneasy about all these things, and I have made His Highness Ge Le suffer. Please rest assured, Your Highness Ge Le, since this matter has happened to me, I will definitely do it. Give His Royal Highness Ge Le and Huihe a satisfactory explanation."

Ge Le's eyes flickered slightly.

He was actually very disturbed.

Guo Ziyi's influence in Longshuo is huge, and it has been in operation for many years, which is no small matter.Although Zhang Xuan was a vassal conferred by the Tang Dynasty, he had a high position and authority, but he had just taken office, and it was unlikely that he would fall out with Guo Ziyi because of the Huihe people.If you insist on "biting" and don't let go, you will be the one who suffers.This is Gele's true thoughts.

Therefore, although he hated Guo Min deeply, and regarded this encounter as a great shame in his life, but the so-called people had to bow their heads under the eaves, what he wanted was to recover from his injuries as soon as possible and return to Huihe, so that revenge and revenge would happen in the future Besides.

Thinking of this, Ge Le sighed softly, "Great Governor, Ge Le has absolutely no intention of complaining or holding grudges. The Great Governor's life-saving grace, Ge Le will never forget. Ge Le is not willing to cause trouble for the Great Governor. This matter—— I will not mention this matter in the past, and after Ge Le recovers from his wounds, he will leave with his clansmen, and from now on, this matter will not be mentioned again. Please rest assured, the governor!"

"I just feel sorry for my little sister, whose life or death is still uncertain."

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhang Xuan's mouth when he heard this, and he took a deep look at Ge Le.He thought to himself, Prince Huihe is a very smart person who knows how to advance and retreat. If he undertakes this matter with all his strength and suppresses it with all his strength, he will be able to turn a big problem into a small one.Even Su Hudong, the princess of Huihe, suffered an accident because of this.

But in this way, it will obviously cause the Huihe people to have a deep hatred for Datang in their hearts.

This is what Zhang Xuan does not want to see.

In his future plans, Huihe has more than [-] soldiers, which will be an important force for him to resist Tubo and Anlu Mountain.Worst of all, the stability of the Huihe people is also related to the safety of the rear of the Longshuo base camp, which cannot be underestimated at all.

Zhang Xuan laughed loudly, "His Royal Highness Ge Le's heart, I admire. It's just that Huihe has been friendly with Tang Dynasty for generations, and it is a state of father and son. If this official turns a blind eye to this, wouldn't it chill the hearts of Huihe subjects? Please Ge Le Your Highness, rest assured, wait a few days in Shuofang City, and I will give His Highness a satisfactory explanation."

"If it is found out after the fact that someone really disregarded the laws and military discipline of the Tang Dynasty, acted recklessly and used weapons, no matter who it is, this official will never tolerate adultery!"

Zhang Xuan's voice suddenly became majestic and deep.

Ge Le was startled, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Metropolitan Governor, Ge Le is very grateful."

Zhang Xuan got up slowly, walked over, squatted in front of Ge Le, patted him on the shoulder and said softly, "His Royal Highness Ge Le, what I plan is nothing more than Huihe and Tang Dynasty forever repairing, doing business and trade, watching and helping each other." , to benefit the common people. This is the overall situation."

"Some changes will not affect the overall situation. As long as Huihe is loyal to Datang and never betrays, I can promise that as long as I stay in Longshuo for one day, Huihe people can freely enter and leave the territory of Tang Dynasty for business and trade. I protect the legal army of the Tang Dynasty. Anyone who dares to destroy the friendly relationship between the two countries will be killed without mercy!"

"This official will open the borders to Longshuo, further promote free trade and commerce, and reduce taxes by [-]%. If Huihe people open shops in our territory, this official will treat them equally..."

Ge Le was shocked and then overjoyed, if what Zhang Xuan said was true, it would be a great blessing for the Huihe people.The Uyghur people lived as nomads, they were not good at farming, and lacked food and various materials. If the Uyghur people were allowed to freely enter the Datang trade, enjoy tax reduction and the same treatment as the Tang merchants, the Uyghur people would exchange to the Datang at the lowest cost. food and various supplies.

At present, although Huihe people can also conduct trade with Datang, they can only be limited to fixed towns designated by the government, cannot cross the border, and have high taxes.

Ge Le was so excited that he forgot the pain all over his body, sat up on the bed, looked at Zhang Xuan eagerly, and said softly, "Governor, are you serious?"

Zhang Xuan smiled lightly, "I never lie."

"Gele thanked the governor for his kindness on behalf of the Huihe people! The Uighur people will never forget the kindness of the governor, and the Huihe people will never forget it, and I am grateful!" Ge Le propped himself up and forced himself to kneel on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly.

……

……

Zhang Xuan hosted a banquet to appease Ge Le, and the two sides talked happily.Under the great excitement, Gele was very energetic.What is a little physical pain compared to the huge national interests and the prosperity of the entire Huihe tribe?
Ge Le suddenly felt that his encounter this time turned out to be an opportunity.

While talking with Ge Le, Zhang Xuan suddenly had a preliminary idea of ​​assimilating the Huihe people.
