Chapter Seventy-Eight: Wei Mu Chengyong

Wu Qing with a caravan of more than 300 people was blocked before they arrived at the city gate of Xiping Mansion, and a group of cavalry blocked their way, and the leader of a typical party person's hairstyle said to Wu Qing: "You are Song people, you are really brave, dare to come to Xiping Mansion at this time." ”

Wu Qing said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "We are merchants of the Great Song Dynasty, and we are very big, we are here to do business with your city lord, we are here to do business with your city lord, we are bringing enthusiasm and wine, not weapons and hostility, all say that your men on horseback welcome guests from afar to the grassland, is this kind of welcome ceremony afraid of our hundreds of unarmed civilians." ”

The leader looked directly at Wu Qing with his eyes, Wu Qing looked back without fear, the momentum at this time must not be lost, the old soldiers who lost this group of city gates will bully you, the leader feels that Wu Qing has no way to take the momentum and says: "What do you have in your goods, dare to let us check it." ”

Wu Qing said: "It's okay to check, but you can't destroy it at will, the goods we brought this time are one-tenth of the total, if you ruin this transaction, I think your city lord will pull off your skin and light the sky lantern." ”

Bu Su and Zhou Yaoqing pinched a sweat behind Wu Qing, Bu Su and Zhou Yaoqing have experienced less wars, and they have a natural fear of the party people, Wu Qing is different, he has participated in the battle of Song and Liao, and the battles between Song and Xia have basically participated, he is afraid of death, but he is not afraid in his heart, the party people are far worse than the Liao people.

The leader didn't expect this Song man to be so difficult, and said to Wu Qing: "You wait here, don't move, I'll report to my family." When he was done, he said to his men: "Keep an eye on them, if there is any change, you will be killed." ”

Xiang Qingjun commanded the envoy Yamenli, commanded the Yeli Ganglang Ling and the transfer envoy Po Chou Chongyu was drinking and drinking, and the people who accepted it said that there was a large caravan of the Song people outside the door, and the big soldiers didn't know how to describe it.

Yeli Ganglang Ling is interested, Yeli family since the Weimu family was destroyed and became the first family under the Tuoba family (Li Yuanhao's family, later they changed their surname to Li), he is the nominal uncle of the crown prince Li Ning Lingge, the elder brother of the queen Yeli clan, and also the elder brother of the left king Yeli beggar and the right king Yeli Wangrong, the military department Shangshu Yeli Renrong, this year the Yeli family is the most prominent year in Western Xia, the king has to listen to the opinions of the Yeli family for everything, he knows very well that everything in the Yeli family comes from military merits, After the end of the Song-Xia War, he was worried that the Yeli family would embark on the road of cunning rabbit death and lackeys, and he told the two smug younger brothers, how could they listen to the advice of enjoying the joy of harvest, and now he heard that the Song people sent to the door, maybe there was a chance to go south, as long as there was a war, then the Yeli family would be safe.

Yeli Ganglangling rode a high-headed horse, and appeared in front of Wu Qing for a lifetime, without asking Wu Qing, and directly ordered him to open all the goods for inspection, Wu Qing signaled to Bu Su, Bu Su first opened the liquor and tea, because these two things are indispensable for their daily life, they can brew their own wine, and the tea is all smuggled by the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty.

The ugly re-encounter behind him is no better, but in the eight major families, their ugly family is not worthy of lifting shoes for the Yeli family, and there are people from the Yeli family, he can only think about it in his heart, and if he leaks a trace of desire, it may bring the Pochou family to ruin.

Yeli Ganglang looked at Wu Qing and said: "Our Yeli family wants all your goods, for the sake of such a good wine, spare your dog's life, go back to the Great Song Dynasty!" ”

Wu Qing said: "The commander's vision is too short-sighted, I just said the goods prepared by our host this time, only one-tenth of the goods brought, I said that we want to do business sincerely, if the commander really wants, we should be a greeting gift." ”

Yeli Ganglang Ling said: "What you said is true, if I remember correctly, after the start of the Song-Xia War, your Great Song Dynasty closed the mutual market, do you have such a great energy to bring out so many things from your borders?" ”

Wu Qing said: "Our owner's surname is the same as your king's, he is the cousin of our emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, in other words, his status is even more than your younger brother Zuo Wang Yeli beggar's status in your Western Xia, do you say he has that energy." ”

Yeli Ganglang Ling said: "What evidence do you have to prove that I traded with you this time, what should I do if the goods behind you are gone, I am not so stupid, you must have a good eye when dealing with you Song people, this is our Zhongshu order, and it is also what Zhang Yuan, the fallen scholar in your Song mouth, said." ”

Wu Qing said: "How does the commander want us to prove it, you say it, we think it makes sense, how about we negotiate with each other, this is our biggest concession, if the commander still can't do it, as I said earlier, as I said before, as a meeting gift to the Yeli family." ”

Yeli Ganglang was thinking about the gains and losses, he felt that his brain was not enough, and turned around and asked Po Chou Chongyugui: "Do you think it is better for us to rob them directly or to exchange with them for a long time." ”

Po ugly again Yu Gui said: "Our people have not drunk milk tea for a long time, the Yeli family is very great, I believe this, but you also know that our party can not grow tea, many herdsmen do not have a good axe, how many cattle and sheep have to freeze to death in winter, the spoils of war are taken away by the nobles, ordinary herdsmen have not benefited, many people have been dissatisfied, this is an opportunity, both benefits, but also appeasement, win the hearts of herdsmen, kill two birds with one stone." ”

Yeli Ganglang said: "You win, I will let my people follow your people back, as long as my people can see the goods in Gyeongju, we will start trading, and you are also preparing to trade items next time, I didn't embarrass you, right?" ”

Wu Qing said: "The commander is refreshing, no problem, Busu, let the calf take them back." ”

Yeli Ganglang Ling said: "What do you want to trade for this batch of goods? ”

Wu Qing said: "Commander, you had better choose a powerful family to trade with us for this batch of goods, ordinary herdsmen will be exempted, to be honest, they can't afford to buy, if you trade, cattle, sheep, horses, skins, us, we can use it." ”

Yeli Ganglang Langling said angrily: "There are no goods that our Yeli family can't afford, you just have to take out the things." ”

As soon as Yeli Ganglangling's words fell, another voice remembered, "Xixia is not your Yeli family now, wait for one day your Yeli family can really replace the Tuoba family, and then make a big deal here, right?" The caravan from the Song Kingdom is trading with the entire Western Xia, not just with your Yeli family. ”

"Don't hide it, don't think that if your sister marries my brother, you can do whatever you want, it's just a woman, my brother will have as much as he wants, do you want to challenge our Yeli family? Today, in front of so many people, should we use the rules of our grassland to solve the problem? Yeli Ganglang Lang Ling shouted frantically.

He said with an unchanged face: "You can't represent the Yeli family, so you are not qualified, in this Xiping Mansion, I am the master here, you have to remember your identity clearly, if you have any dissatisfaction, you can react to the king, and you said about my sister, I will send a letter to King Zuo, I want to ask if the woman of our Wuzang family is really worthless?" ”

Yeli Ganglang Ling was speechless without hiding Pang Ding, he pulled out his knife, the warriors of the grassland do not play tricks, he wants to use his knife to prove the honor of the Yeli family, Wu Li Ganglang is the head of the Wuzang family, how can the accompanying guard be Yeli Ganglang Leng, Yeli Ganglang Ridge pulled out the knife at the same time, the guard who did not hide the Pang also pulled out the knife, this time it was Wu Qing's turn to be stunned.

Seeing this situation, he hugged Yeli Ganglang Ling and said: "Let's settle down the merchants of the Song Dynasty first, and then discuss the transaction, impulse can't solve the problem." At the foot of the stairs, both men put away their knives.

He said to a man beside him: "Cheng Yong, you arranged for these Han people to live in the city, and inform me of something." ”

This man named Cheng Yong took Wu Qing and the caravan into the city to stay, this man did not leave, he said to Wu Qing: "Can I talk to you for a few words?" "The man does things and speaks with a strong Han style, and the aristocratic temperament can be seen at a glance.

Wu Qing came to the room with curiosity and the man, took out a bottle of Xifeng wine and poured it for the man, and made a gesture of please, the cool grassland man took a sip, and reacted the same as the person who drank the high Xifeng wine for the first time, and his neck turned red in an instant, and the man relieved himself and said: "It's really good wine, you Han people can't do it in this regard." ”

Wu Qing said proudly: "Of course, the wine has been drunk, what can I say now?" ”

The man said: "You are not a private caravan at all, you can deceive them Those who have not been to the Great Song Dynasty are okay, it is impossible to deceive me, don't be in a hurry to deny it, I have studied in your Kaifeng Mansion for five years, do you say I understand you?" ”

Wu Qing didn't expect there to be such a person, he said quietly: "Then what do you think we are?" ”

The man said: "Anyway, you are not a private caravan, not to mention the emperor's cousin, even your emperor's younger brother is impossible to transport so many goods across the border, how can your team of hundreds of people evade the detection of 100,000 troops, just this point, you can't explain clearly, I don't believe that you Southern Dynasty literati easily let you make enemies." ”

Wu Qing said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Then why don't you denounce us, what do you want to do?" ”

The man said, "I think I can help you, and I want to let everyone in the Yeli family die." ”

Wu Qing said: "Why should I believe you, if you come to trick me, I will not be allowed to leave my life here today." ”

The man said: "Just because I call Wei Mu Chengyong, this is not enough." ”
