All The Hotshots Love Me Quick Transmigration - Chapter 173
It has been a month since the messenger left. If everything goes well, he will be able to return with Da Zhao’s credential in another month. Regardless of whether the Emperor Da Zhao agrees with Bei Di to celebrate his birthday, they have to start preparing the gift now to save time.
Regarding the gift, Urhan discussed with the tribe many times and did not make a decision.
For one thing, they are not very clear about Jokhang etiquette, and for the other, the specifications are difficult to determine. Giving too little seems shabby, and giving too much. It will be a problem for the tribesmen to spend the winter on their own, and if the Emperor Dazhao does not agree to open trade, will these gifts be given for nothing?
Once again without discussing the results, Urhan rode a horse and ran outside for a few laps before sweating profusely into Jiang Rui’s tent.
He was sitting on the bookcase and concentrated on not knowing what to write. Urhan slowed down, and just about to lean over, remembering that he was sweaty, and he must be disgusted. He went to wash his hair again and flung his hair. Drops of water came in.
Jiang Rui put down the pen, picked up the copied paper and read it again. He was satisfied, set it aside, and took a new piece of paper to continue copying. On her left hand, there was already a copy.
“What is this for?” Urhan picked up a thin piece of paper with the Jokhang text on it, and he didn’t recognize any of it.
“Buddhist scriptures, a birthday gift copied to the emperor.” Jiang Rui never looked up. Even if he was distracted, the speed of his writing was not slow at all, even many times faster than normal people. He finished one in the blink of an eye. A dozen breaths. Just copy one line.
Naturally, it was because of her extraordinary people. She planned to copy dozens of Buddhist scriptures to the emperor, creating the illusion that she had been praying for her father since she married to Beidi. Want to come to this filial piety, how much can the emperor impress?
If the emperor really loves Princess Chaoyang in his heart, after marrying her to this deserted land of Mobei, there will always be one or two points of guilt. At this time, let him know that for the sake of his Jiangshan Sheji, the people of the Li people had to marry the daughter, not only did not have any resentment, but also remembered the well-being of his father and the emperor, and even those who were indifferent should feel a little moved.
What Jiang Rui wanted was not the emperor’s paternal love, but whether he could give a big hand and agree to trade with Beidi under his paternal love.
“Take a rest.” Urhan sat beside her.
Jiang Rui copied out the amount that others could not finish copying in half a month, and was about to take a break. After finishing this page, he put aside the pen.
In Urhan’s opinion, writing is much harder than fighting on horseback. After writing so much at once, she must be exhausted, so she took her hand distressedly, held it in her palm and knead it gently to relieve it. Sour.
“Otherwise, don’t copy it. Anyway, the clan will also prepare birthday gifts. I will prepare for the farewell of the Lan family.”
Jiang Rui didn’t say whether it was okay, took a sip from a tea cup with his empty hand, and asked him, “Did you discuss it?”
“Not yet.” Urhan frowned.
Just now, Wang Zengli had another fight about this. Several groups of people almost fought and were kicked out one by one by the upset Uerhan.
“What did they propose?”
“Aguda and others suggested that five hundred sheep, two hundred cows, and two hundred horses. Those old men in Risong felt that it was too much. They decided to change to fifty sheep, fifty cows, and fifty horses. Make up the good fur on several big cars.”
Jiang Rui leaned back holding the teacup, leaning against Urhan’s arm, and took another sip of tea, and said, “Neither plan is appropriate.”
“Fan’s thoughts are the same as mine.” Urhan rubbed her shoulders.
The Di Clan is not limited to the Wang Ting, and there are also many settlements around it. Every time it changes, the Wang Ting occupies the best position. The water and grass are abundant, and the cattle and sheep grow the most fat. Lack, the people of the royal court are the least likely to go hungry.
The Di people regarded cattle and sheep as important as their own lives, and the older generation’s ideas were even more deeply ingrained. It was extremely difficult to get food from their mouths, so the Song group insisted on not letting go.
The younger generation such as Aguda did not give in, because they knew why Da Khan suddenly proposed to celebrate the emperor’s birthday. Only a richer birthday gift is more likely to impress the people. If the plan is successful, even if they are required to tighten their belts , What about forbearance for a winter? What a big deal, as Khan said, he copied the nest of the Rong people!
In the past few days, Urhan has been arguing with them. Although he said nothing in the clan, but cattle and sheep are related to the livelihood of the whole clan, even he can not move easily, at least more than half of the clan members agree.
“I have a few words, I don’t know if you want to listen?” Jiang Rui turned his head to look at him, and said slowly.
Urhan raised his eyebrows, “Just say it.”
“If you only decide to send cattle, horses and sheep, I am afraid that all cattle and sheep in the clan will be sent out, and it will be difficult for my father to be truly tempted.”
Jiang Rui knew from the memory of Princess Chaoyang that although Da Zhao was mediocre in power and vulnerable to a single blow, he was unexpectedly prosperous. The unique geographical location and the gentle climate were the best hotbeds for the development of agriculture. Basically, various other industries have also developed very prosperously.
She can say unceremoniously that any small landlord, Dazhao, has a better life than her former princess, the current Bei Dilan family. At least people want to eat meat, vegetables, vegetables, and white noodles. Eating white noodles can also be sprinkled with candy, but she wants nothing, she has to make a few bean sprouts by herself.
The lives of ordinary people are carefree, let alone the most noble emperor in the world? Are cattle, sheep and horses rare in his eyes? No matter how much it was sent, it was nothing more than a string of numbers, and perhaps it was not enough for the harem concubine to smile.
She was straightforward, but Urhan didn’t feel offended, and asked sternly: “So what does Yan Shi mean?”
“There are not many gifts. If they are to your heart’s content, one is enough. If you want to give it, you will give it to the rare ones, the ones that are not available in the Jokhang Palace, and the ones that are not available in the Jokhang Palace.”
Urhan nodded slowly, frowning and thinking about her words.
Someone was walking outside the big tent, Jiang Rui looked over and said, “Who is outside?”
“King Khan, princess, slaves.” Qiu Hua opened the curtain and bowed inwardly. Seeing that the two of them had nothing to do, he walked to Jiang Rui’s side with a sigh of relief and whispered: “That group of children have been here several times. Khan was here, didn’t dare to make a loud noise, and pestered me to question, saying that three of the pumpkins in the ground had turned yellow. I wanted to ask the princess if he could eat it.”
Thinking of those greedy children, Jiang Rui curled his lips and shook his head, “You can take them off and let the kitchen make pumpkin pie for them.”
Qiuhua stopped talking. Before the caravan came, she went to buy some rice, flour, sugar and other items. She originally planned to improve the food for the princess, but these days, the princess has successively made food for the children. , I don’t eat much by myself. To make pumpkin pie today, you have to have glutinous rice flour and sugar, both of which are very rare here.
Seeing her thoughts, Jiang Rui said, “Which of those things is not something we were bored with before? If you want to eat it, wait until the pumpkin pie is ready and eat more.”
“Slaves didn’t mean that.” Qiu Hua pouted, without saying more, and went out to tell the children the good news.
In fact, Qiuhua had a misunderstanding. Jiang Rui didn’t want to keep subsidizing the children. After all, she didn’t have much supplies on her own. It’s just that these pumpkins were the first real harvest for the children. They have some sweetness, and then they will have more energy.
When there are more pumpkins, she doesn’t have so many glutinous rice flour to match, so they can take one home and steam it.
Sugar is rarer than salt here, and some children even grow to this size. Except for a few wild fruits that they occasionally eat, they have not really tasted the sweetness. When the pumpkin pie is fried, it has a unique sweet smell, which makes these children look forward to, restless, and nervous.
Because the pumpkin is quite big, a lot of glutinous rice flour is added, and each child is given three palm-sized, golden pumpkin pie.
Some children took a bite carefully, their eyes widened immediately, and then gobbled them down and couldn’t wait to finish eating; some were like small animals and tasted in small bites; more after eating the first one, they would resist the saliva and cherish it. I left the remaining two, ready to give my family a taste.
Qiu Hua was also divided into three. Once in the palace, such rough cakes, not to mention the princesses, would not eat even grand ladies like her. After coming to the Di Clan for so long, she is not picky at all. . It’s just that I’m still looking forward to it. Seeing the behavior of these children, I don’t know why, but I don’t know why.
After receiving Jiang Rui’s hint, Urhan started to take people out early and return late. Sometimes he didn’t come back for a few days, and every time he came back, he was embarrassed, and he didn’t know where he went to roll around.
Without him, Jiang Rui copied the book faster, and dropped the last word on the paper. Finally, all the Buddhist scriptures were copied. The thick pile would take three or four months, or less, a few days. Just copy it. Put the Buddhist scriptures in the box, get up and move your muscles and bones, and go outside the tent to breathe.
The sun is about to go down, the smoke is rising in the tent area, the grazing people in the distance drive the cattle and sheep to return, and the melodious pastoral songs spread far and wide.
Jiang Rui walked slowly to the river. From time to time, people from the Di tribe got up and saluted her. Compared with when they first came here, the smiles on these people’s faces when they faced her were obviously more sincere than before, even if Urhan was not there at this time. , And no one is negligent.
This may be due to familiarity with each other, or it may be due to being close to the children these days, the children have influenced the parents, or they may know that Bei Di’s idea of trading with Dazhao was brought up by her.
In short, Jiang Rui’s position in Beidi has been improved and consolidated all the time.
A few unclothed, black-skinned children were playing in the river. When they saw Lan’s appearance, they subconsciously wanted to surround themselves. Suddenly they remembered that they were naked, and immediately hid in the water, only showing their heads outside. , His dark face was flushed.
The Di women washing clothes by the river pointed at them and sneered unceremoniously. Compared with the fact that children at the age of seven or eight years old, Beidi people are obviously more open-minded. It is rare that these naughty brats are also ashamed. The older generations are naturally relentless when they make jokes.
While laughing and making noise, there was a loud cheering not far away. Jiang Rui turned around and saw Urhan returning with his tribe.
This time they left for five days and didn’t tell her what to do. It was mysterious. Apart from the group of them, there was a large cage, and the beast roared vigorously from time to time.
“Oh-the sweat is back! The sweat is back!”
The children of the clan cheered, and the few in the water didn’t care about being embarrassed. They stood up and climbed ashore and ran to the door.
“Princess, what is that?” Qiu Hua asked in surprise.
“It’s the clouded leopard!” Jiang Rui didn’t answer. A Di woman took the initiative to tell her with pride. “The clouded leopard is the fiercest beast in the grassland. It only lives on the snow-capped mountains all year round. My old Abu once said No one has ever been able to catch a live clouded leopard. We are worthy of being the first warrior of the Di clan and the first warrior of the grassland!”
Jiang Rui nodded with her and stared at the crowd.
The beast in the cage, for a leopard, is really amazing. Although the name is clouded leopard, it is not the same as the clouded leopard Jiang Rui has seen in other worlds. To be precise, it is more like an animal named Snow Leopard in another world, but it is much larger. Whether it is the smooth and firm curves or the gorgeous fur patterns, they are both shockingly beautiful and heartbreaking.
When Urhan returned to the big tent, although his face was a little tired of lack of rest, the excitement in his eyes could not hide. He has formed the habit of cleaning himself up before entering the Lan’s big tent, so he has already taken a bath at this moment. When he saw Jiang Rui, he picked him up and turned around and laughed loudly.
Jiang Rui leaned on his shoulder and looked down and said: “Are you going to use it as a gift?”
“Yes, what do you think?”
“I believe that as long as I have seen that beast, no one can fault it.”
Urhan smiled even more in his eyes and couldn’t help but hug the person tighter, rubbing a face on her face.
Although the beard has been shaved clean, the little stubble left is still uncomfortable. Jiang Rui endured for a while, and finally slapped him away.
Urhan kissed her hand, “Thank you for the reminder.”
“I didn’t say anything.” Jiang Rui said.
“A random word from Lan Shi is more effective than what we rough people want to come up with.”
Jiang Rui squinted at him, “Did you steal honey outside?”
Urhan licked her lips and kissed her cheek again, “No, but I did find a honeycomb to make tea for Yan’s.”
As he said, he yawned twice in a row, and then he rounded the person he was holding in his arms, and fell on the bed together a few steps, “Sleep with me for a while.”
Before Jiang Rui pulled away from his arms, he heard even breathing sound from the top of his head. When he looked up, Urhan was already asleep. I don’t know how many days he hasn’t slept outside, and he can’t hide his dark complexion. He almost fell asleep when he was in bed.
She didn’t struggle anymore, picked a comfortable position in his arms, and closed her eyes to rest.
During this period of time, melons and vegetables have gradually matured in the field. After the children have tasted the sweetness, they have been entangled in the smell of **** and asked when they can plant the next wave.
Several children asked her secretly, saying that their parents had promised to help open up a larger piece of land and plant them with them, and asked her for permission.
She was naturally allowed. After all, this was her original goal. If adults do not participate, and rely on children to make small troubles, how can it become a climate?
The day when the messenger came back was getting closer, and most people in the tribe were looking forward to it, but the messenger didn’t expect to come back, first looking forward to people from other tribes.
Dazhao referred to the nomadic peoples in the north as Beidi. In fact, there are many tribes in the north. Although the Di tribe is the most powerful tribe, these tribes have never been unified and scattered throughout the grassland. There will also be battles in the pasture territory.
This time, people from several tribes came together, led by the Qi tribe, second only to the Di tribe in strength.
Jiang Rui did not go out in the tent, these were what Aruna told her. The leader of the Qi tribe is named Chagan. According to Aruna, his mother is Urhan’s aunt, so he and Urhan are cousins.
Recently, the Di Clan has been very quiet. They are also learning from the land and sending letters to him. Even if these two can be concealed, Uerhan’s capture of clouded leopards a while ago cannot be concealed.
Thinking of his actions only after marrying Princess Da Zhao, and they all seemed to be related to Da Zhao, people from other tribes were a little bit unable to sit still. But they didn’t dare to come to inquire about it rashly, so they went to the Qi territory first and let the Qi leader be their leader.
At this time, those aliens, headed by Chagan, were walking around outside the children’s nursery as if they were watching some strange scenery.
Looking at the yellow pumpkins inside, the kidney beans hanging on the bamboo frame, and the long beans about to hang down to the ground, Chagan couldn’t help stepping over the short fence, reaching out to grab a taste.
The next moment, he found a row of children in front of him, blocking him from going forward, all glaring at him.
He paused, and suddenly made a fierce grimace.
The children stepped back in fright, but soon straightened their chests to block his footsteps, and stubbornly said, “This is our territory, even if you sweat heavily, you can’t come in and pick it up, please go out immediately!”
Chagan looked at them for a while, and found that these little peas were serious, he couldn’t help turning his head and said to Urhan: “Hey, don’t be so stingy, let these boys get out of it.”
He doesn’t really think that this place is what the kids said about their territory, how many scumbags can make these things?
Urhan gave a mocking smile, and turned away with several other aliens.
This piece of land has already been marked by the group of cubs. Except for his Yanshi, no other adults are allowed to enter, including his sweating profusely. So he was happy to comment on how Chagan was kicked out.
Seeing that there was no support, Cha Gan didn’t make the decision after judging the situation. Of course, the main reason was that he didn’t want to be seen for a while, and the leader of the dignified Qi clan couldn’t beat a few young boys.
Seeing him turning around, several children immediately twittered: “We drove the bad guys away!”
“Yes, we have protected our territory, and Lan must be very happy.”
“Go talk to Yanshi, the bad guy was scared away by us!”
Cha Gan, who hadn’t gone far, pulled the corners of his mouth, asking himself that he couldn’t care about a few stinky boys who didn’t grow up, so he forced himself not to look back.
It’s just that those children who kept their mouths caught his attention. Could it be that the princess Jokhang really made this place with the children?
If it is true, it seems that these changes in the Di family are indeed related to her.
Although only a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg, Cha Gan’s keen sense of smell as the leader realized that Princess Jokhang was indeed helping the Di Clan, not for any other purpose. And if it continues to develop in this way, the already powerful Di Clan is likely to leave their tribes far behind.
In addition to the nursery, they went to see the clouded leopard. On the way, they met many Di people who were on the sidelines. Chagan Biur Khan hadn’t been a leader yet, and was always grinning. Seeing the woman and whistling frivolously, the Di women were not Feeling offended, instead giggled generously.
Although the people of the other tribes obviously have something to say but dare not say, Chagan has a leisurely and contented look. It seems that his trip is just to see his cousin.
But Urhan knows that his cousin is not a fool like Ogle.
When leaving, Chagan and Urhan still walked ahead, a few steps faster than others. He said in a voice that only two people could hear: “Whatever you plan to do, take me and my people.”
“What for?” Urhan asked.
Chagan was shaking his horse whip as if he was telling him something interesting: “Change the position of a wolf to sit for you?”
“So what does he mean?” Jiang Rui asked with a slightly raised eyebrow in the Lan’s big tent at night.
Urhan threw her into his arms, “He wants to form an alliance with us.”
“You will be the leader of this alliance?” Jiang Rui added.
Urhan nodded, just for the benefit of an alliance, not a merger of the two clans. Although he was not interested in the leader of the alliance with a good reputation, it was indeed necessary to form an alliance with other tribes.
As a result, no matter what the alliance is, it is more powerful than a single tribe, and it can also give Da Zhao more threats and pressures, prompting the Emperor to agree to open the transaction.
Second, if the emperor agrees and the Di tribe trades with Da Zhao, but does not bring other tribes on the grassland, it is inevitable that no one will spoil him in secret. He is not afraid of anyone, but flies are always annoying.
I have to say that his cousin can turn his mind fast enough to understand him.
It’s a pity that he doesn’t seem to have a thorough understanding, just the leader of the alliance, how can he satisfy him, what he wants to do is the real wolf on the grassland.
