Chapter 196: What's the use of being good-looking
Murong Mingyue didn't expect that De Ge'er, whom she had always admired, would say such frivolous words, and for a while she was angry and ashamed, and she stood there stupidly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Jiang De thought that Murong Mingyue had acquiesced, so he wanted to come up and grab her hand. Unexpectedly, as soon as she touched it, Murong Mingyue shook off her hand as if she had been pricked by a needle.
Murong Mingyue was angry and ashamed, and said angrily: "What are you doing with me!" "Then he rode his horse and left.
Jiang De hurriedly chased after him, while pulling the reins of Mingyue and not daring to let go, he kept apologizing and said, "Jiang De will not leave the county lord, I will follow you to Liangzhou ······"
Murong Mingyue didn't want to pay attention to him anymore, but when she saw Jiang De's wounds and scars all over her face, her heart softened again, and she said after a while: "You used to be in the Liang Army, and they have known you for a long time." ”
She was also afraid of irritating Jiang De, so she didn't want to say that she was captured, so she could only say that she had stayed. But Jiang De's face still changed suddenly, and his breathing became short. He said, "I'm pretending to be a guard!" If someone is unfavorable to the county lord, Jiang De will be the first to protect the county lord! ”

Jiang Cong really went to visit the Jin envoy and talked with Shi Shu and Wang Chong, not only impressed by the knowledge of these two, but also more optimistic about the value of this marriage. He returned to Tuyuhun non-stop, and immediately returned to Tuyan, told Liangzhou's promise, and did not forget to mention that he had met the Jin envoy.
Tuyan didn't know that Shi Shu and Wang Chong had been staying in Liangzhou for many years, and they were also shocked when they learned the news that the Jin envoy was in Liangzhou. Immediately afterwards, his reaction was the same as Jiang Cong's, and he was more optimistic about the marriage. Although Tuyuhun is a prince, the canonization of their outsiders does not have any gold content at all. If you count the tribes of the Western Regions, there are not hundreds of kings, but dozens of them, and they can't be compared with Liangzhou Mu at all, let alone the kings of the clan in the Jin Dynasty.
So, under the intensive arrangement, Tuyan agreed to all of Zhang Jun's conditions, and wanted to make peace as soon as possible. Everything is going according to plan and irreversibly. Soon, the edict, silver book and jade seal of Murong Mingyue as the Lady of Daliang Sanpin were sent to Tuyuhun's camp, which was a good matter discussed by the two sides. At the same time, there are also a large number of goods and dowry gifts, gold, silver, tea, silk, and jewelry.
Guangwu County also urgently deployed 500 pairs of new armor to escort them over, and Tuyuhun did not delay, Tuyan directly took his daughter in person, and Jiang Cong and other nobles went to the camp of the Longxiang army.
The etiquette of the court's canonization of the courtier's wife is not so simple, and it is generally the courtier's marriage and then posthumously sealed, and it is impossible to send the order to the woman without going to the door. But now the etiquette has long been broken, and even this edict, silver book and jade seal were all privately made by Zhang Mao's order, but they just asked Shi Shu and Wang Chong to stamp a red seal. Moreover, Zhang Jun has always been in other countries, so everything can only be done expediently.
Zhang Jun asked the steady Wang Meng to arrange a banquet in the camp, inviting Tuyan, Jiang Cong and the leaders of various ethnic groups to come to the banquet, so as to expand the influence of the marriage between Liangzhou and Tuyuhun in the northwest.
Zhang Jun in the camp of the Liang army received a report that Murong Mingyue had approached the camp, and he was also very happy in his heart, although it was completely a political ······ Governance ······ activities, but in the end, it is impossible to include a beauty in the harem, not to be excited. He immediately sent Zhou Tong to lead the right battalion of the Longxiang army to meet him.
Immediately afterwards, the generals entered the big tent to meet Zhang Jun, and congratulated their governors on the return of the beauty.
In fact, Zhang Jun still has a little concern in his heart, that is, Tuyuhun people generally wear high conical hats, and when the hat is taken, the head is bald! Whether this kind of hair ornament is based on the aesthetics of the ancients or the eyes of modern people, Zhang Jun does not think that baldness is anything to look at; It is said that people living on the plateau only take a bath three times in their lives, and Murong Mingyue is very beautiful, but the smell may not be fragrant.
But Zhang Jun doesn't mind, her significance is not in her appearance, but in her identity.
The large camp of the conscripted army was very large, and it was built of stones and cement carried by the army, which was not only strong and abnormal, but also invulnerable. Since cement has been widely used in Guangwu County, it has become a must-have for home travel and conquest and defense. The conquest army had long adjusted the standards for camping according to the birth of new weapons and materials, and in addition to cutting down wood to build it, it had to wrap gravel and cement on the outside to form a strong fortress.
Originally, the cement carried by the Long Xiang army was not enough to support such a large-scale construction, but for several days, the logistics team of Guangwu County gradually transported materials with the messenger, so the camp became bigger and bigger. Tuyan knew that Zhang Jun had made up his mind to swallow this place, so he turned a blind eye to the matter of the Liang army's fortification······ But who knew that in just these days, it would have reached such a scale, which is like a miracle.
After staying outside the camp for a while, Murong Mingyue entered the camp under the escort of Tuyan, Jiang Cong and the team of close attendants. She and her father sat on an incense cart sent by the Liang army earlier, lifted the beaded curtains of the car windows, and looked out curiously, only to see that the interior of this camp was completely different from the big camp in Tuyuhun, there was no smell, no sewage, and not even the shouts of the soldiers. Everywhere is quiet, and everything is in order.
Tuyan also looked outside. After glancing at it, he first asked his daughter to put down the curtain: "Don't lose your manners, Han'er is the most polite." ”
"Oh······" Murong Mingyue obediently withdrew her hand, and then heard her father sigh again: "Seeing that the Liang army is so elite, Tugu Hun can't be an enemy with it······"
The team walked around the camp for a while and then stopped. At this time, Jiang Cong said outside the car: "The young general of Da Liang met us outside the tent. The king, the county lord, get out of the car. ”
Tuyan got out of the carriage first, and then Murong Mingyue got out of the carriage with a dead face and stiff hands and feet. It may not matter how she feels in her heart, those important things have already been done······ Swap slave armor and marry into alliances.
It would not be too good for a strange alien to suddenly become her man like this.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a loud shout, and then I was full of anger and "Huo". It startled the mentally depressed Murong Mingyue! She followed the sound and saw that the two columns of sergeants in front of the tent moved neatly and stepped their feet and lifted the long sand in their hands.
Murong Mingyue suddenly felt very new and surprised, she had seen many guards and soldiers, but she had never seen such a guard. I saw that the two groups of people were tall and strong, almost the same height, they held their heads high, their armor and cloaks were very neat and clean, and they stood straight.
Tuyan had a very flat expression, but he actually felt it very deeply in his heart. He turned his head and looked at Jiang Cong, who was a step behind him, and saw shock in each other's eyes.
Murong Mingyue saw this scene in her eyes, and said in her heart No wonder her father and Uncle Jiang Cong advocated marriage desperately, and they were in charge of the leopard, just looking at the military discipline and momentum of these two teams, they knew that the Liang army was much stronger than Tuyuhun's combat effectiveness.
Jiang Cong handed over the saber in front of the door, and a Han military general searched him, but he did not ask Tuyan and Murong Mingyue, but directly stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, saying, "Please!" ”
Jiang Cong explained in Tuyuhun dialect: "King, today is just the first time to meet, you are going to meet with the envoy of the state pastor of Daliang, just have a simple conversation." After that, he turned to Murong Mingyue and said, "I'll go in with the county lord to see the young general." In the future, I won't be able to be by the county lord's side, but I have to remember that the county lord is our Tuyuhun woman. ”
Tuyan nodded, and sure enough, he saw a person dressed as a civil official waiting for him outside the largest tent, so he took the initiative to greet him, hugged his fists and said, "Little Wang Tuyan, meet the envoy." ”
It was the master of Taifu, Ma Bream, who also smiled and returned the salute, and let Tuyan go into the tent.
On the other side, Jiang Cong and Murong Mingyue were led into a slightly smaller tent, but there were many guards inside, and the etiquette was also very complicated.
Later, I heard a voice say, "Xuan, Mrs. Murong and Ambassador Jiang are inside." ”
After a toss, Mingyue's mood became nervous. The two of them bypassed a simple screen at the door of the tent and came to the middle, only to see people standing on both sides, and behind the table in the center, a young man in military uniform was sitting at the end.
This person is the major general of Da Liang?
He didn't wear particularly gorgeous clothes, but all the mighty and majestic generals on both sides stood respectfully around him, and Murong Mingyue could feel his status from the scene.
It was just at first glance that Murong Mingyue found that Da Liang's young general was not the same as she imagined. This person looks very young, with good facial features, and can even be said to be very beautiful. Although he is sitting in a seat, his back is straight, and he can see that he is very tall and strong, although he is not a powerful appearance, but he gives people a very heroic and extraordinary feeling.
But this cool young general is very different from the other young men on the plateau······ It's not at all as bold and casual as Tugu Hun Qingzhuang.
Jiang Cong stepped aside and asked Murong Mingyue to come forward to meet first.
Murong Mingyue obediently stepped forward, put a hand under her chest, and bent down to salute. She didn't want to say anything, just looked up at Zhang Jun with some curiosity.
Zhang Jun also looked at the little lady in front of him curiously, and found that she was more beautiful and moving than when she looked at her from a distance. So, the two looked at each other silently.
Because he often leads troops to fight, Zhang Jun's skin is not as fair as it was at the beginning, and it is even a little rough, but his hair is neatly combed, the clothes on his body are clean and flat, and his sitting posture is very upright. His eyes were also very bright, and he gradually smiled, and turned his head to Zhou Tongdao, who was standing aside: "Tuyan's daughter is really beautiful, even if she is put in Guzang, she is still a beauty." ”
When had Murong Mingyue ever been judged in person like this, her pretty face suddenly turned red, and she couldn't get angry······ After all, he was praising her, but he felt that saying this made her very unaccustomed.
At this time, Zhang Jun suppressed his smile and asked, "Can you understand Chinese?" ”
Murong Mingyue's lips rose lightly, revealing her teeth, and she said in smooth Chinese: "After the Murong clan is the emperor of the Gaoxin clan, 'Mu Eryi (heaven and earth) is the way, following the appearance of the three lights (sun, moon, and stars)', and after Yan Huang, he will naturally speak Chinese. ”
Zhang Jun's face suddenly felt embarrassed, and Murong Mingyue saw it in her eyes, and she felt a little satisfied.
Zhang Jun coughed and said: "From now on, the Zhang family of Liangzhou and the Murong family of Tuyuhun are relatives, I hope that the border is peaceful and the people are harmonious." He said to Jiang Cong again, "After you go back, tell King Tuyuhun that King Tuyuhun is loyal to defend the land for the Great Jin, and His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty is very pleased and asks him to take care of his health." ”
Jiang Cong hurriedly said: "Weichen wishes His Majesty a long life. Tuyuhun didn't dare to forget His Majesty's Longen for a day. ”
Zhang Jun nodded, which can be regarded as agreeing on behalf of the Sima Emperor who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River.
Jiang Cong bowed again: "The lower official asked the young general to let Mrs. Murong rest for a while, take a bath and change clothes, and then come to see the general." ”
The etiquette of the two sides is very different, and the other party is a general of Dazhou, so it is not possible to follow the customs of the Tuyuhun people; For example, I have to test my husband, get him into a lot of trouble, and I have to walk back from my mother's house to show that I am strong······ However, according to the habits of the Tuyuhun people, the mother's family can't let the husband's family take the bride into the door casually, at least they must make a very reluctant and the bride has a very status, so as not to be despised after she marries.
Jiang Cong's meaning is like this. He can't just send Murong Mingyue here and hand it over to the people of Liangzhou, at least he wants the people of Liangzhou to do some pomp and show sincerity, and it is best for Zhang Jun to take Murong Mingyue back in person.
After hearing this, Zhang Jun felt that Tuyuhun was also deferential, and it was not good not to give others this face, so he said: "It's okay, I asked my subordinates to prepare a big banquet, and I will send a chariot to meet Mingyue another day." ”
Jiang Cong wanted to speak and stopped, and finally bowed and said: "The general is the son of Da Liang, but according to the etiquette of the Tuyuhun people, the husband must at least go to pick up the bride in person······"
At this moment, Zhou Tong next to him said loudly: "You also know that the lord of my family is the son of Da Liang, what else do you talk about the etiquette of the Tuyuhun people?" “
In fact, Zhang Jun originally wanted to agree, even in modern times, the husband's family should come to the door to marry, not to mention that the man should have some gentlemanly demeanor. But Zhou Tong rushed to speak, as if he felt that the young general of Liangzhou marrying a barbarian woman was already a gift, and Jiang Cong's request was very rude.
Zhang Jun didn't want to reprimand his subordinates in front of outsiders, so he just glared at him and didn't make a sound.
Originally, Murong Mingyue's mood had improved a little. Although this Zhang Jun was a stranger of another race, after seeing him, he found that he was very young and good-looking, which made Murong Mingyue feel a little better.
However, the attitude of the people in Liangzhou made Murong Mingyue very dissatisfied. This man didn't take her seriously at all, so what's the use of him looking good or not?
