Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

The wind in Lingzhou is very strong. Guo Shao stayed here, and the most intuitive thing is that the houses in the northwest are generally lower than those in the Central Plains. I don't know whether it is because of the construction technology and materials, or the buildings that are too tall are easy to collapse.

The accompanying officials successively held banquets to entertain the heads of all ethnic groups, but Guo Shao never met them personally.

He was in a room, looking at the map hanging on the wall repeatedly. He was holding a lamp in his hand, and the wind poured in from the gap between the doors and windows, and the lamp flickered, and the light in the low house was always bright and dark.

At this moment, the door "creaked" and the wind suddenly became louder. Guo Shao quickly covered the direction of the wind with his big palm.

Wei Renpu's voice said: "Your Majesty, the minister went to the banquet, the situation is very good."

Guo Shao didn't look back: "At this time, the Tubo tribes were scattered, and Buddhism was flourishing. The threat was not too big; the Xizhou Uighurs and Ganzhou Uighurs threatened the land of the rebel army the most. Party items are the most important."

Wei Renpu said: "Your Majesty's words are extremely true, and the ministers have also heard from many sources that all the people in the party are soldiers, and the military is the highest priority. It is only a nominal sacrifice to our country, and it should not be taken lightly."

The information Guo Shao understands now matches the memory of "Xixia Kingdom" in his mind.

He has forgotten the specific historical knowledge of the textbooks, and he can't remember when the Xixia Kingdom was founded. It should probably be in the Northern Song Dynasty... Anyway, this country is very difficult to clean up, and the country has been standing for hundreds of years.

Now Guo Shao is wondering that the recent establishment of the Dangxiang country is not the right time... But he is afraid that after the future war with the Liao Kingdom is at a stalemate, the Northwest will take advantage of the vacancy!

At this time, Guo Shao's biggest dream: defeating the Liao Kingdom and regaining the Sixteen States of Youyun! He has to avoid all kinds of unfavorable factors in advance.

Guo Shaoliang was silent for a long time.

Wei Renpu said: "As long as the Lingzhou Mutual Market is smooth and the Hexi Commercial Road is unblocked, I will continue to get war horses from Chaoding Energy. Everyone is profitable, and there must be merchants in the middle who will buy and sell horses with us. If there are fewer war horses, just give Their profits are not big enough..."

Guo Shao suddenly changed the subject: "Li Yiyin really has a daughter named Li Yueji?"

Wei Renpu hurriedly said: "This is indeed the case. The minister asked the party member, this woman is quite famous, and many party members have heard of her reputation... But the barbaric woman has a strange appearance and has not been educated and unreasonable. , Then..."

Guo Shaodao: "It doesn't matter what kind of person she is, as long as she is indeed the daughter of Li Yiyin."

Wei Renpu said: "Yes, if it is a marriage with a daughter, the party members are still very sincere... There will be no less dowry. In the Han and Tang dynasties, there are few real princesses, but the Central Plains must have sincerity and harmony. Will make friends."

Guo Shao nodded in agreement, and said casually: "If Li Yiyin wants to rebel, he can't send his daughter over to take risks."

In this era of diplomatic relations, the signing of peace treaties is not popular, and the civilized order has not reached that level; alliances are more direct and primitive, and they are marriages with relatives.

Guo Shao had no liking for the Han and Tang Dynasties and the Qin Guo policy based on the ideas of modern people... However, in the eyes of the people at that time, marriage was a good method. It was completely cost-effective to sacrifice a woman for peace; and the dynasty had some ideas. , Believes that women in the courts of other countries can have a beneficial influence on the country.

Within a few days, Guo Shao received a report, and the party sent a nobleman to see him. Guo Shao met this person immediately, mainly because of etiquette, and then sent Wei Renpu to discuss with him in person.

No Cangshi came to discuss marriage as a matchmaker...This kind of marriage is different from folk marriages. Etiquette is not the most important thing, the important thing is bargaining!

The Muzang family hoped that the imperial court would use the two states of Fu and Lin as the betrothal, and also wanted a thousand new soldiers of the Zhou army; the replacement of the violent Jidu Envoy Feng Jiye in Lingzhou, promised to live in harmony, and no longer burned, killed, robbed and robbed the party branches... …And promised to pretend to be two thousand horses, and allow Xiazhou and other party members from several states to go to the Lingzhou Mutual Market; pay tribute to Fengda Zhou.

Wei Renpu first readily agreed to the last condition (the replacement of Feng Jiye was originally planned by the emperor).

Then he directly refused to cede the land of the two states. Wei Renpu’s reasoning was: "The two lands cannot be discussed. Linzhou and Fuzhou are the hometowns of the Zhe family and Yang family of Da Zhou, and if the court cedes them under the jurisdiction of the party, Where do you put them?"

After saying this, Wei Renpu calmed down and said that the court would increase the value of the bride price to compensate the party.

As for the armor, Wei Renpu sold it off, because it is not good to directly reject two of the three conditions of the party...will appear to be insincere.

Wei Renpu said: "The Tubo and Ganzhou Uighurs also hope that Dazhou will trade in armor, and they are willing to exchange it with a good horse."

Sure enough, the Tibetan clan immediately dissuaded him: "The Dingnan Army is a court official and obeys the emperor's edict; and the Tubo and Uighurs are not subject to the imperial decree, the court should not grant soldiers to outsiders.

Wei Renpu knew that there was no Tibetan clan. In the southeastern part of the Hexi Corridor, the Tubos were competing with some Dangxiang tribes for territory. The Ganzhou Uighurs also had alliances with the Tubos; it was extremely detrimental to the Dangxiang tribes to trade armor with the Tubo Thing.

Wei Renpu said: "The officials hope to live in harmony with all parts of the northwest and avoid conflicts. If the armor is granted to Xiazhou, I am afraid that the Tubo and other tribes will think the court is unfair... At this time the officials are negotiating with the minister or selling the armor to all tribes. , Or sell none of them. The situation forced the king to tell King Xiping and hope to understand the difficulties of the officials."

He didn't say anything about it, and he was obviously not satisfied with the "bridal gift".

Wei Renpu hurried to see Guo Shao.

Guo Shao said: "Don't talk about collapse! But although Linzhou and Fuzhou are barren, the topography is important. There is no way to talk about this, and they must not be ceded... You can promise that there is no Tibetan clan. According to the imperial etiquette system, I should have one and four Madam, there are only two wives so far; if Li Yue'e marries the royal family~www.readwn.com~ I will call her a good concubine."

Wei Renpu couldn't help but say: "Your majesty's concubine's status is very high...The party woman is the imperial concubine, will she also have a relationship with the government?"

Guo Shao said: "She is a party woman who is unfamiliar with her birthplace in Tokyo. What can she do? Regarding status and status, it is better than cutting."

Wei Renpu nodded and said, "Your Majesty is extremely true."

...Wei Renpu met again with the Micang clan and talked about new conditions. He also persuaded that he did not hide: "The establishment of the government and the Lin two states is not to deal with the Dingnan army, but to guard against the Liao. This place is related to the safety of Hedong, and the officials dare not give it to others at will."

Nozang asked: "Your Majesty promised to make the princess a good concubine? Can you give the imperial edict gold book first?"

Wei Renpu understood that the Zang family really valued the status of party women, and immediately said: "As long as the negotiation is settled, there should be no problem."

Wei Renpu also wondered a bit in his heart that the status of the harem should not be of great use, but he was afraid that if the party girl was really favored, it would really affect the national policy.
