Li Ping walked up quickly and said in a low voice: "General, the messenger of the Pu people is here. ”

Li Xinchen was stunned for a moment, and bowed slightly, these Pu people came quickly. And Xiao Shilian obviously knew about it, and he was immediately interested. However, Gu Yewang was a newcomer today, and he was a little surprised.

Although he had never been to Bashu, before he came, he asked several ship bosses about the situation in Bashu clearly, and knew what the Pu people were from. The Ba people have eight departments, this Pu people are the most moderate one, and now the Pu people have come to contact Li Xinchen, does it mean that the Ba people have decided to follow Li Xinchen?

King Gu Ye knew how capable these Ba people were, and he also knew the bloody storm they set off in the land of Bashu a few years ago. Because of the deep hatred with the Northern Zhou, of course it is impossible for these Ba people to go to the Northern Zhou, so it is inevitable to contact Li Xinchen, and they are relieved at the moment.

Li Xinchen smiled slightly, and looked at Gu Yewang and Xiao Shilian: "Let's go, let's go and meet these Pu people, maybe there will be a lot to rely on them in the future." ”

His eyebrows furrowed slightly, and King Gu Ye said in a low voice: "The Ba people will cause trouble in Bashu before, and now it is even more difficult to say, if the general uses the Ba people, will he be a little risky······

Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian's footsteps were both stunned, Li Xinchen was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "Gu Gong, having said that, but now there are too few people in someone's hands, so you have to take the risk and give it a try, otherwise you are not sure that you can really retreat in the tide of the Northern Zhou Dynasty's army." The Ba people want to rely on X to take revenge, and X also needs them. ”

King Gu Ye was silent for a moment, how many soldiers and horses Li Xinchen had in his hands, in fact, he only knew an approximate number, and as a civil official, the way he thought about things was definitely not based on the number of Li Xinchen's soldiers and horses, so now Li Xinchen suddenly mentioned this matter, so that King Gu Ye didn't know how to answer.

After all, in Gu Yewang's subconscious, Li Xinchen should have enough strength to deal with the threat of Northern Zhou. From the time he knew the name, it had always represented victory and even a miracle.

Li Xinchen's worries, this was the first time Gu Yewang had seen it.

Continuing to walk to the threshold, Li Xinchen was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Gu Gong, you understand your worries. But no matter what the Ba people want, they have to seize this power, even if it is to quench their thirst, they have to make themselves strong first. ”

King Gu Ye was silent for a long time, and could only bow his head slightly. Li Xinchen has already said everything to this point, what else can he say? At this time, Gu Yewang only had a deep sigh in his heart.

Only standing here at this moment can he understand what kind of difficulties Li Xinchen has overcome. Entering Ba County alone, this young man overcame obstacles and laid such a world. And now in order to keep this side of the world, he knows what he should do and what he shouldn't hesitate!

It seemed that King Gu Ye still had concerns, and Li Xinchen immediately explained: "Gu Gong, I just want to struggle out a path in this troubled world, and these Ba people, I feel that they have the same idea······

"Shizhong!" Gu Yewang unexpectedly directly interrupted Li Xinchen this time.

And Xiao Shilian, who had always turned a deaf ear to all this, turned his head at this time and looked at Gu Yewang coldly. He knew where Gu Yewang's concerns were, but he knew better that the current Li Xinchen needed the Ba people, just as the Ba people needed Li Xinchen.

Therefore, if this old stubborn wants to stop Li Xinchen, then he Xiao Shilian will no longer stand idly by.

Li Xinchen turned his head to look at King Gu Ye, waiting for him to speak. And King Gu Ye made up his mind: "What you said makes sense, but you also wait for the old man, the old man is slow!" ”

Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian subconsciously glanced at each other, with a smile on their faces. Li Xinchen stepped forward and hugged Gu Yewang: "I forgot this!" Gu Gong wants to forgive his sins! ”

Gu Yewang nodded with a smile: "The old man can't keep up with you young people with his hands and feet, but you can't underestimate the old man, you still have the ability to stay and help you guard this business." Although the wind and waves are strong outside, young people should go out and let go! ”

Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian then laughed.

They knew very well that although King Gu Ye still couldn't put down his shelf, he had at least admitted that he was inferior to Li Xinchen in terms of judgment and planning, so he simply sat in the rear and looked like he was following Li Xinchen's arrangement.

This is already a very remarkable breakthrough for the old minister, who is generally arrogant in front of young people.

At least for Li Xinchen, Gu Yewang can do this, it is enough.

——————————————--

Du Qi intertwined his hands and stood respectfully at the bottom of the hall.

Although the winter in Bashu is not very cold, this Bashu is surrounded by mountains, and there is still a chill in the gust of mountain wind. However, Duzi, who didn't look very strong, didn't care about this, just stood like this. The few attendants behind him were also silent, only their eyes constantly swept around, obviously wary of this strange place.

"General, this is Du Qi, the young patriarch of the Pu people!" Li Ping walked briskly down the steps.

Li Xinchen strode down, and Du Qi didn't wait for Li Xinchen to walk in front of him, so he gave his hand first: "Puren Du Qi see General Chen Dangkou!" ”

Li Xinchen returned the salute with a smile, and introduced Xiao Shilian and Gu Yewang behind him to Du Qi.

The Ba people should be regarded as the closest to the Han culture among the barbarian tribes, and most of their surnames are not much different from the Han people, for example, Li Te, the founder of the Han Dynasty, is one of the eight Ba people, which is commonly known as "Ban Yuman", and his surname is "Li".

Among the Pu people, there are many people with the surname Du, and the most famous of them is naturally Du Yu, the king of Shu, and the cuckoo cries blood, which is the allusion of Du Yu. For so many years, it was also the Du clan who was in charge of the various tribes of the Pu people. Du Qi is the eldest son of the old patriarch of this generation and the future leader of the Puren tribe.

The residence of the Pu people is concentrated in Ba County, especially in the northwest of Ba County and Hezhou, most of the mountains and rivers in this area are under the control of Li Xinchen, and the Pu people are the most gentle among the eight Ba people, and the relationship with the Han people is also relatively the best, so this time the Pu people took the lead in coming to Li Xinchen, which is also reasonable.

What's more, when Pu Ren came up, he directly sent the future head of the family, and the sincerity of it is self-evident.

Looking Du Qi up and down in front of him, Li Xinchen couldn't help but sigh with emotion. This person has a humble attitude towards himself, and he does not have the slightest frame of the future patriarch, but he nods and bows without meeting, and he has a good grasp of the scale of etiquette, and he is obviously a thoughtful person.

Obviously, Gu Yewang also discovered the trick during this period, and couldn't help but cheer up.

Sure enough, the Ba people were able to thrive in this land of Bashu for so many years, and even occupied Ba County for a time, and they were not completely assimilated by the Han people like the Shu people, so they still have some ability.
