Fierce “Husband” - Chapter 210

“Master, outside the door, a businessman from the Dashan tribe who calls himself Wuxi is asking for an interview.”

Ugly?

Shao Yunan glanced at Wang Shijing next to him, and immediately said, “Please come in, go to the main hall, and Lord Hou and I will go there immediately.”

“Yes.”

Knowing who Wuxi was, Wang Shijing led Shao Yunan to stand up and said, “Be careful, don’t be in a hurry, go slowly and tell them to wait.”

Shao Yunan rolled his eyes for the nth time, shook off Wang Shijing’s hand, and strode out angrily. Wang Shijing hurriedly protected him, shouting slow down.

Shao Yunan’s belly is almost five months old, and she is already pregnant. Wang Shijing was nervous every day after returning from Zhongyong Village. Especially after Shao Yunan’s belly got bigger, that step-by-step and cautious attitude made Shao Yunan annoyed and annoyed. He can fully understand the Queen’s feelings towards Emperor Yongming!

There has been no news since Wu Zhen left the capital, Wu Si has never appeared again, and the swallow’s nest of the Dashan tribe has also fallen into the sea. Now that people have appeared again, Bao Buqi is the king of the Dashan tribe who has news, or perhaps the swallow’s nest has finally been delivered.

Shao Yunan, who was restrained by Wang Shijing and walked in small steps, finally came to the main hall, with a look of surprise. There were dozens of baskets in the main hall. The people waiting in the hall immediately stood up and saluted, and a woman said with a smile: “Wu Zhen heard that Zhengjun has a congratulations, congratulations to Marquis, congratulations to Zhengjun.”

“Thank you.” Wang Shijing’s face was filled with joy from his father-to-be.

Seeing the other party’s mental outlook, Shao Yunan made a note and returned the salute: “Princess Wu Zhen, are you okay?”

Unexpectedly, the other party suddenly knelt down on one knee: “Wu Zhen Xie Zhengjun’s great grace!”

“Princess, get up!”

Wu Zhen stood up with heroic movements before and after, and said gratefully, “If Wang Shaozhengjun hadn’t come forward, my father would have already…” Suppressing his emotions, Wu Zhen said, “Father has begun to recover, Wu Zhen Do not dare or forget Wang Shaozhengjun’s request to order the clansmen to pick all the swallow nests in the swallow caves of the Dashan tribe.

“Princess Wu Zhen has a heart, you can just send someone here, there’s really no need to go here in person.” Shao Yunan really didn’t expect the other party to be so polite.

Wu Zhen also said bluntly: “My father ordered me to send an envoy to negotiate the peace, and I will return to the tribe after the wedding of King Luo Rong. Wang Shaozheng asked Wu Zhen to do it himself.”

The princess of the big mountain tribe is not beautiful, but her words and deeds are as heroic as a man. There is also no rouge gouache that my daughter’s family likes to apply on her face. Shao Yunan has seen her three times, and every time she dresses up in the traditional clothes of the daughter of the Dashan tribe, but the colors are not bright, and there are not too many accessories on her body, in short, it is concise. She always has a machete attached to her waist, and her temperament is also a person who knows martial arts.

Not all bird’s nests can be eaten as bird’s nests, only the bird’s nests built by the saliva secreted by several species of swifts and several species of swiftlets can be eaten. Shao Yunan didn’t know if there were swifts or swiftlets here. He carefully checked the nests in each basket. Fortunately, he found edible bird’s nests in three baskets.

When Shao Yunan checked, Wu Zhen was very nervous. After Shao Yunan finally determined that there was something edible, her tense face immediately burst into a relaxed smile. Wu Zhen saw which tribe the three baskets of swallow’s nests came from, and kept it in mind.

Wu Zhen didn’t stop there. She took away the swallow’s nests that were inedible, and told Shao Yunan that the Dashan tribe would supply Shao Yunan with edible swallow’s nests for free. Shao Yunan did not accept it, and he truthfully informed Wu Zhen of the benefits and potential value of edible bird’s nest. The two sides quickly reached a cooperation agreement. The Dashan tribe provides 300 bird’s nests from the Dayan Country Star Room for free every year, and Shao Yunan buys the rest at the price of one or two silvers. The three tribes’ bird’s nest Wuzhen can no longer be sold to others. .

These bird’s nests are purely freshly collected from the bird’s cave and undergo multiple processes before they can be eaten. Shao Yunan happened to be too busy to get moldy, so he sent someone to call Guo Zimu to deal with the bird’s nest with him, and taught Guo Zimu how to sell the bird’s nest for a big price. Of course, so many bird’s nests could not be handled by the two of them, Wang Shijing asked Wang Shuping to assist his daughter-in-law to handle the matter. The arrival of Wang Shuping and the others has indeed greatly eased the pressure on Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan in employing people, and the brothers Zhao Yuande and Zhao Yuanqing will come over soon.

At the post station thirty miles away from the outskirts of Beijing, Dai Zhanxiao, who “escorted” the Huhar country’s mission, suppressed the excitement of seeing his relatives and closely monitored the group of the mission. The Huhar Kingdom sent a mission of 500 people this time, led by King Keqin, the younger brother of the monarch of the Huhar Kingdom. Regarding the envoy of the Huhar Kingdom this time, Dai Zhanxiao agreed with his father and uncle, and the other party was not good.

In the previous war, Dayan barely resisted the invasion of Huhar. However, after years of wars, Emperor Kang Sheng’s political darkness in the later period made the border security of Dayan State in jeopardy. The country of Dayan was repeatedly captured by the Huhar country on the border. If it were not for this, the Dai family would not have been able to survive in that political struggle. But Dai Zhanxiao didn’t think it was a fortunate thing. If it wasn’t for the sudden death of the Great Khan of the Huhar Kingdom, it’s hard to say what the outcome of the war would have been, but Dai Zhanxiao had already done the same as his father. Ready to die on the battlefield.

But things seem to have turned around. After Jiang Kangning returned from the border, supplies were delivered to the border one after another. Dai Zhanxiao was not in the capital, but the changes in the capital also spread to his ears. Dai Zhanxiao placed his hopes on this, hoping that the emperor could revive the power of the Great Yan State, so that the people at the border would no longer suffer from the war.

Hu Guo’s mission brought a large number of people. Although the other party concealed his identity, the general Dai Mingjun still found out the other party’s true identity. The five hundred warriors of the Hu Kingdom must not enter the capital just like that. The envoy of Hu State protested against Dai Zhanxiao’s order to repair the inn, and Dai Zhanxiaoquan ignored it. If he allowed these people to enter the capital, he would be disregarding the safety of the emperor,

“General, the thief Hu is clamoring to see you again, and they want to enter the capital immediately.” Dai Zhanxiao’s lieutenant came to report again.

Dai Zhanxiao snorted coldly: “This is Dayan, and they can’t be allowed to be arrogant. I just said that I wouldn’t be able to enter the capital without receiving the emperor’s order.”

“Yes!”

Dai Zhanxiao was indeed waiting for the emperor’s order. How to arrange these five hundred people, and who to send to monitor, requires the emperor to personally order.

A group of men and horses came out of the capital and hurried to the post station. The person in the lead had a dark expression on his face. This person was none other than Wang Shijing, who was supposed to take care of his “jiao” wife at home. Dai Zhanxiao waited for the emperor’s instructions, and Emperor Yongming sent Wang Shijing out of Beijing to announce an order to pick up people by the way. To face the Hu people and leave Shao Yun’an for two days, Wang Shijing’s mood will definitely not improve. To the Hu people, he only hates them.

Dai Zhanxiao did not expect that the person who came would be Wang Shijing. Facing Wang Shijing, Dai Zhanxiao’s heart, like his father’s, was very complicated. Wang Shijing used to be his subordinate, and he knew about Wang Shijing’s ability and character Dai Zhanxiao. Despite Wang Shijing’s current identity, Dai Zhanxiao was still very happy to meet his former subordinate, but when this subordinate became With his “sister-in-law”, he couldn’t be happy at all.

“Master Hou.” Regardless of whether he is happy or not, Dai Zhanxiao still does the proper etiquette.

“General.” Wang Shijing was very happy to see Dai Zhanxiao, but his mood was also very subtle. His former boss is now his eldest brother, and the two sides have not met formally, so Wang Ishijing did not directly call him eldest brother. Wang Shijing was several years older than Dai Zhanxiao.

Dai Zhanxiao asked politely: “The emperor sent the prince to come, I don’t know what to say?”

“The embassies of various countries have settled in the capital, and Chitose is now pregnant. In order to avoid trouble, the emperor ordered the embassies of Huhar to be stationed in the defense camp of the Kyoto Palace, and only 50 people are allowed to enter the capital.”

Five hundred warriors from the Huhar Kingdom poured into the capital, which is definitely not a reassuring thing. Emperor Yongming’s intention was to let these people stay in the official defense camp stationed on the outskirts of Beijing, and be directly monitored (guarded) by the official defense Cao. Allowing fifty people to enter Beijing is the bottom line of Emperor Yongming. Hu Guo’s mission was extremely dissatisfied with this, and they asked the five hundred people to go to Beijing together.

Wang Shijing and Dai Zhanxiao sat in front of King Keqin and listened to the other party’s fierce protest. Dai Zhanxiao endured the killing intent of wielding his sword. If it hadn’t been for the fact that Yan Kingdom could no longer fight, when King Keqin entered Dayan’s territory, Dai Zhanxiao would have killed him, and he would only hate Hu Thief even more. But what surprised him was that Wang Shijing also looked bad, even with obvious disgust and impatience. Wang Shijing is now a loyal and brave marquis, and he has come with holy orders. What he does now must be considered for the current temporary peace between the two countries. His performance will only intensify the contradiction between the two sides, and is not conducive to the next Hu. Regarding the peace talks between the two countries proposed by the State Council, Dai Zhanxiao couldn’t understand the emperor’s intention to send Wang Ishijing here. Does he not care about the peace talks this time? Or is Wang Shijing unbearable? Dai Zhanxiao suspects the latter.

Dai Zhanxiao didn’t know that Wang Shijing had been very restrained. After the commander of King Keqin finished roaring, Wang Shijing said without hesitation: “Fifty people, no more than one. If your country’s embassy can’t accept it, then you can go back. This time the two countries negotiated peace. What your Huhar Kingdom proposed is not my Dayan begging you. But it is really difficult for you to see your sincerity with your current strongman.”

King Keqin opened his mouth and said with a weird accent: “Master Hou, I, the Huhar Mission, came to the Emperor of Yan to seek the possibility of negotiating peace between the two sides. But your attitude, Master Hou, made us The sincerity of negotiating peace is like falling into an ice cave, but you can bear such consequences, Lord Hou?”

Wang Shijing sneered: “Since King Keqin thinks that you have come to negotiate peace with sincerity, it is better to start from this step. Huhar Kingdom seeks peace with Dayan Kingdom, King Keqin Why don’t you set an example first? If you can’t be the master, why don’t you send someone back to ask your great khan if he wants to accept our request?”

“You!” King Ke Qin stood up angrily.

Wang Shijing also stood up: “Fifty people, no more than one.”

King Keqin gritted his teeth: “The ‘courageous’ of the Marquis of Zhongyong, I have learned from this king.”

“Thank you for your compliment.”

“Humph!”

King Keqin left in anger, and the four subordinates who got up with him gave Wang Shijing a vicious look and followed. Dai Zhanxiao looked at Wang Shijing, hoping he could explain. Wang Shijing just said: “We and the Huhar Kingdom will never be able to live in peace.”

What does it mean? Could it be that… this is not a good place to ask, Dai Zhanxiao held back his doubts.

Wang Shijing – Unwilling to step back, King Keqin, who was unsuccessful in negotiating (protesting), had no choice but to pick fifty people and follow Wang Shijing and Dai Zhanxiao to Beijing. The remaining 450 people were sent to the official defense camp first.

This also delayed two days. After that, there was no rest on the road. The fifty Guards brought by Wang Shijing, the five hundred winged tigers brought by Dai Zhanxiao, and fifty Huhar people were a mighty group of people. Enter the capital. Their arrival quickly attracted the onlookers of the people of the capital. Wang Shijing took Hu Guo’s delegation to the prepared embassy. Now the embassies of Das, Xianlu and Dashan tribes have all arrived in the capital, and the embassies of various countries are not together. The embassies of the Three Kingdoms all said that they would not return until after the wedding of King Luo Rong, so they would all stay in the capital for a long time. Hu Guo has not yet proposed whether to attend the wedding of King Luo Rong.

After Hu Guo’s embassy settled in the embassy, ​​Wang Shijing and Dai Zhanxiao wanted to return to the palace. Only when the emperor determines a specific time will he receive the envoy of Hu Guo. After the two left, the captain of King Keqin said bitterly, “My lord, the Emperor of Dayan is deceiving people too much!”

King Keqin said with a gloomy expression: “Let them be arrogant. As for the loyal and brave marquis, we will see if he can laugh at that time.”

In the East Lining Hall, after Dai Zhanxiao told the truth about the situation of the Hu State mission, Wang Shijing reported his confrontation with the Hu State mission to Emperor Yongming. After hearing this, Emperor Yongming just nodded, and then said: “Elder Weng Ge will not be able to return to Beijing until four days later. When Elder Weng Ge returns to Beijing, he will entertain the envoys of the four countries in the palace. General Hussar, the Queen wants to see you, you go. Bar.”

“Yes.”

When Dai Zhanxiao left, he also understood that he had guessed wrong. Judging from the emperor’s attitude, what Wang Shijing did to the envoy of Hu Guo was afraid that the emperor had instructed him.

After Dai Zhanxiao left, Emperor Yongming asked Wang Shijing: “What do you think the purpose of Hu Guo’s coming here?”

Wang Shijing frowned and said: “King Keqin’s attitude is very strong, – he must all the five hundred people to enter the capital. If they really want peace as they say, isn’t what they did inconsistent? Your Majesty, my minister. I don’t understand this, but Yun An once said to the minister, ‘If they are not of our race, their hearts must be different’, it is not that Hu Guo never made peace with me, Dayan, that was when they were weak, and once they were strong If I get up, I will definitely attack Dayan. This time, when the envoys of Hu Guo come here, I do not think that they are sincerely seeking peace, or it is just a temporary plan; or, it is for the sake of fairy water.”

Emperor Yongming squinted his eyes and tapped his fingers on the table. If he is not my race, his heart must be different…

The Queen has not seen Dai Zhanxiao for six years, and it is rare for the other party to come back, so the Queen is very happy. The elders in the family were not there, so the queen left Dai Zhanxiao to eat in the palace. Although Dai Zhanxiao really wanted to see his little father and younger brother, he could only temporarily suppress his thoughts and some kind of anxiety. Emperor Yongming didn’t come over at noon. The Queen and Dai Zhanxiao had a meal together. Contemporary Zhanxiao knew that the rich dishes on the table were all from his younger brother’s hands. He, a little general who never bleeds without tears, was not. Can control the redness of the corners of the eyes.

At this time, the Zhongyonghou Mansion was furnished-new. The masters who stayed in the capital on behalf of their families are all here. Everyone ate lunch absentmindedly, waiting anxiously. Immediately, people informed that the Hussar General was coming, and the gate of Zhongyong Hou’s mansion opened wide. Even Shao Yun’an, who has always been calm in recognizing his relatives, couldn’t contain his excitement. Dai Zhanxiao had fantasized about many scenes of meeting with his younger brother, but when he actually saw it, he found that all the fantasies and all the assumptions he had made during the meeting were useless.

His younger brother, who met again, is already a wife, his belly is bulging, and the appearance of his younger brother in memory is more than ten years later. gradually overlap. When Dangdai Zhanxiao reacted, he was already hugging his younger brother tightly, choking in his throat.

Dai Zhanxiao’s tears welled up, but the iron-blooded man was in tears at this time. In my ear, my younger brother’s rhetoric when he was young: “Brother, when I grow up, I will become a general like my grandfather, uncle and father, and kill thieves!”

“Okay!”

His younger brother did not become a general, but became someone else’s male wife and conceived a child for him.

I don’t know if it was because she was pregnant, or was infected by the atmosphere caused by Dai Zhanxiao, Shao Yunan couldn’t hold back her tears. Wang Shijing and Su Chenyi hurriedly persuaded him, and it took a long time for the two brothers to separate. It was only then that Dai Zhanxiao looked at his younger brother carefully, and Shao Yunan also carefully observed him. Dai Zhanxiao was two years older than him, but at this time he seemed to be about the same age as Wang Shijing. In the bitter and cold places like the border all the year round, the food and clothing costs are very poor, how could Dai Zhanxiao be so fresh. Dai Zhanxiao has a darker complexion, a pair of big eyes similar to Shao Yunan’s, and he has the unique temperament of a warrior, which is tempered and blood-stained. The two brothers entered the main hall together, and Dai Zhanxiao went to greet his little father, aunt and others.

The reason why the family gathered in the Zhongyonghou Mansion was that firstly, Shao Yunan was pregnant, and everyone treated him as a rare animal; secondly, it was to let Dai Zhanxiao see Shao Yunan’s life and reassure him. Su Chenyi was very sorry that her husband couldn’t get up and come back, but he was also very happy. He was distressed and excited when his eldest son came back. Dai Zhanxiao is not as dull as Shao Yunan thought, on the contrary, he is very active. From his mouth, the things at the border are only interesting, and there is no hardship or danger at all. Shao Yunan quickly fell in love with this brother.

Dai Zhanxiao brought gifts to the family. Because he was escorting the Hu Guo mission, he didn’t have much time to choose. He brought some small things he usually collected, as well as some special things from the Huhar country. , but he still brought a big gift for Shao Yunan, a whole piece of fox fur from the fox. He didn’t know that Shao Yunan was pregnant, so he took off the saber from his waist without preparing a present for his little nephew (daughter). On behalf of the family, both men and women can practice martial arts, so this saber is perfectly suitable as a gift.

After delivering the gift, Dai Zhanxiao took a special stone and placed it on the table beside Shao Yunan, and said, “Qiansui asked me to look for jade mines, so I found it according to the rough stone you gave. Huxing Pass and Waiye Pass are all around. No, my soldiers said that there are similar stones in their hometown, I sent someone to look for them, do you think it is this thing?”

Shao Yunan saw at a glance that this stone was a rough stone, but it still had to be cut out. I didn’t expect my brother to be so concerned about this. Shao Yunan put the stone aside and said, “It’s hard work, brother. I’ll have someone send it to cut it in a while. If it is, brother just tell me the place of origin.”

“Okay!”

Dai Zhanxiao hopes to be the kind of rough stone that his younger brother wants.

At this time, Wang Shuping walked in: “Zhengjun, Princess Wuzhen is asking to see you, just outside the door.”

“Please.”

Wang Shuping went to invite the other party in, and Shao Yunan said to Dai Zhanxiao: “Brother, Princess Wuzhen is the daughter of the king of the Dashan tribe and the head of the Dashan tribe’s mission.”

Dai Zhanxiao nodded.

Soon, Princess Wu Zhen came, followed by her two personal guards. Every time Shao Yunan saw Princess Wuzhen, the two of them were there. When Princess Wuzhen came, she saluted Shao Yunan first, and then looked at Dai Zhanxiao. Dai Zhanxiao stared at the opponent as soon as he appeared.

“Princess Wuzhen, this is my brother, the hussar general of Dayan.”

“Little General Dai, I’ve heard it for a long time.” Wu Zhen clasped his fists.

“The eldest princess of the Dashan tribe, I have long admired it.” Dai Zhanxiao clasped his fists.

The eyes of the two met in the air for a moment, then separated at the same time. Princess Wuzhen looked at Shao Yunan: “Zhengjun, I’m here to tell you something.”

Su Chenyi, Shen Bing, Dai Yingxiang and others left immediately, leaving only Wang Shijing, Shao Yunan and Dai Zhanxiao. When the door of the main hall was closed, Wu Zhen’s expression was solemn: “Zhengjun, I saw Hu Guo’s embassy in Beijing, and one of them had been to my Dashan tribe many years ago. I was young at the time, but I have a deep memory of that person. That man came to my Dashan tribe to challenge my tribe warriors. He was good at his skills, but his methods were ruthless and cruel. He killed dozens of my tribe warriors. Later, my father ordered him to be hunted down. He turned out to be from the State of Hu, or perhaps defected to the State of Hu.”

“What’s that person’s name and who is it?” Dai Zhanxiao asked immediately.

Princess Wu Zhen said: “I can’t remember the name, but I will never forget the person’s appearance. It was the one with a long beard and a cross scar on his face who walked in front of the Hu Guo mission. Man. When that man came to my mountain tribe, he had that cross scar on his face, so I remember it very clearly.”

Dai Zhanxiao said: “The envoys of the Hu country this time are all warriors of their Hu country, and that person should look like a person from the Hu country. If he is really skilled, it is normal for him to serve the superior. The Hu people are scoundrels who kill like numb.”

But Princess Wuzhen shook her head and said, “That person in my Dashan tribe can be said to be doing a lot of evil, especially lecherous. My father ordered him to be hunted down not only because he killed my tribe’s warriors, but also because he was in my Dashan tribe. A beautiful boy and girl. He is now in the Hu country’s mission, I am afraid that he will use his identity as a member of the mission to do evil in the capital, but you can’t do anything about him.”

Dai Zhanxiao understood what Princess Wuzhen meant. He couldn’t help but guess the intention of King Ke Qin to bring such a person by his side. Shao Yunan said: “Thank you princess for coming to tell us. This is Dayan. If the gallium group thinks they are members of the embassy, ​​we can’t do anything about him. They can do bad things on my Dayan’s land, then I can only say him. He is too stupid and naive. No matter how high his martial arts skills are, he is afraid of a kitchen knife. If he can’t control himself, then he will save his life. But Brother Jing, you still have to tell the emperor to take precautions and not let those thieves harm us. people.”

Wang Shijing stood up: “I’ll enter the palace now.” Then he saluted Princess Wuzhen: “Thank you Princess for reminding me.”

“My Dashan tribe also hates Hu people. If they dare to be presumptuous, my Dashan tribe will not stand by and watch.”

“Princess justice!”

Wang Shijing entered the palace immediately, but Dai Zhanxiao did not follow.
