Chapter Fifty-Eight: How Late
On this day, the entire Baoqiu Water Tooth Tent was in chaos, but fortunately, there were no major problems, and these were the affairs of Keru and Sunu father and son, who were busy clearing obstacles, suppressing some leaders in the tribe who were dissatisfied with them, and releasing the Qihekun patriarch of the Duji Department, and actively relieving the relationship between him and him.
After all, this person has a good relationship with Qu Zhu, and Qi Hekun is very dissatisfied with the fact that Sunu will become the new patriarch of the Ao Lost Division. And in this way, he was powerless to fight against the Xi king Tules, and he had to participate in the upcoming war against the Khitans.
In fact, cracks have begun to appear in the five parts of Xi Ren, which have nothing to do with Zhuang Yi, but he is happy to see it. And Xie Ra and Tules are even more happy to see this, so that the five departments under their command will no longer collude with each other, which will be more convenient for him to rule, and it will also be conducive to Zhuang Yi's next large-scale military training.
But after dealing with the war of the Khitans, whether there will be any changes within the Xi people due to the inducement of this incident, this kind of long-term matter, Zhuang Yi also considered it in his heart, but he didn't want to pay attention to it. If possible, the more chaotic these Shanbei Hu people are, the better, if not, how can he have the opportunity to get involved in Liaodong, and even affect a wider area.
At dusk, the whole camp gradually quieted down, Sunu had already taken control of the situation, and gathered a group of tribal leaders, and held a sacrifice in a hurry, officially assuming the position of the patriarch, but Ru was still the tribal elder. After all, Sunu is the younger brother of the Zhu, and he also has the inheritance right of the patriarch, so he invited Zhuang Yi, Xie Ra, Qi He Kun and others as witnesses to the ceremony, and Xie Ra is a messenger sent by Turus, which can reduce the negative impact of this incident on Sunu's reputation in some ways.
The inauguration ceremony of the patriarch of the Xi people is very simple, first the sun god was sacrificed, the god of the earth was sacrificed, and then the great shaman prayed to the sun god for permission, and gave the Sunu patriarch the festival, which is the festival with a white yak tail. All the tribal leaders and King Xi are in possession, but the number of yak tails tied to them is different.
Then the patriarch announced that Sunu officially became the patriarch and was worshiped by the head of the tribe, and the ceremony was over. As the new patriarch, Sunu had to entertain the heads of his subordinates and a group of spectators according to the prescribed distance.
The feast was held in the open air in the camp, about 50 people participated, on the left and right sides of the head of Sunu in turn, at this time the wine and food have not yet been served, Sunu first invited everyone to enjoy the song and dance, seven or eight musicians sat on one side of the venue, holding the pipa or bamboo flute, Hu Ji and other musical instruments to perform, twelve graceful young and pretty dancers, dressed in plain white skirts dancing in the field, the white water sleeves about one zhang long like smoke and mist, the people who watched were dazzled.
"It's actually this kind of dance that can only be found in the Central Plains, and some of these dancing girls are from the Central Plains, and some are like Hu Niang! Why not Hu Teng Dance, or Hu Xuan Dance? Zhuang Yi looked very puzzled, and couldn't help but ask the neighbor's Xie Ra curiously.
"Hey...... What's so strange about this, these dancing girls were given to Zhu by Li Yuanjun of Youzhou, and now it's cheaper Sunu, he borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, you can't help but appreciate it! Xie laughed.
"Oh...... So that's it! Youzhou Li Converse! It's really a loser......" Zhuang Yi muttered quietly.
It's no wonder that Zhuang Yi said this, the dancers and musicians in this era have no social status, and some are even born in a teaching workshop, or an official slave and maid, and it is normal to be given away everywhere by the powerful. Therefore, in this era, if you want to get ahead, you must first have a legal status, even if it is a common person, but it must not be a slave, otherwise life is worse than death.
In fact, what Zhuang Yi is doing now is just wanting to obtain a legal status. However, he wants to level the ground with a thunderclap, and instantly go from a citizen to an official, or an official recognized by the court and the world's feudal towns, which is by no means something that ordinary people can do, but he is full of arrogance in his bones, wild and conceited by nature, and thinks that he is a capable person, and he was born to sit on one side.
What the world thinks is impossible, for a person like him who is born again, it is completely a piece of cake, otherwise how can he be worthy of being reborn in this life. There is only one chance, and it will never come again. Moreover, as a man, you can know nothing, but you must have a keen eye for seizing opportunities. Since ancient times, how many heroes and heroes have relied on their unique vision to achieve extraordinary feats.
At this time, a Xi soldier in leather armor and a leather helmet rushed in regardless of it, hitting several dancers who staggered crookedly, attracting everyone's sideways attention, and he strode to the front of Sunu's case and bowed down and said, "Report ...... Forty miles to the northwest, an unknown enemy was found, about thousands, please make a quick decision! ”
"What...... Revisit! ”
The smug smile of the spring breeze instantly froze on Sunu's face, he was taken aback but it was not easy to show it, so he had to give such an order, and was about to leave the table to find someone to inspect, but he saw another patrol sentry rushing over.
"Report ...... Thirty miles away due east, I found that there was a cavalry and a department, which was slowly approaching, please show the patriarch! ”
"Hahaha...... Division and Department! Well done! Sunu was relieved, he guessed what was going on, and couldn't help laughing,
In his heart, he was secretly glad that he had joined forces with Xie Ra and Zhuang Yi to remove Zhu and replace him, which was really a wise decision, otherwise his clan would suffer a catastrophe. But now that the matter has been completed, the raw rice has been cooked and cooked, and what if the people from the department come, they are destined to run in vain and work blindly.
"Did you hear that? The people of the department and the department are coming! I don't know whose men and horses are on the northwest road, but who is willing to go to meet them for a certain journey? Let's just say that a certain banquet has been set up, and I am willing to catch the wind for them......" Sunu took out the composure of the head of the clan and asked with a bold smile.
"Hahaha! It's too late! All the way to the northwest, how about going to meet you? As for the people and horses of the department and the department, the Sunu patriarch can condemn his own people. Xie Ra glanced at Zhuang Yi with a smile and volunteered to get up.
"So...... There is the Patriarch of Laoxira! The people of the east and the department also asked Zhuang Langjun to go to greet him! Su Nu smiled mysteriously and immediately threw Zhuang Yi a hot potato, but Zhuang Yi had to continue.
He didn't have to think about it, he also knew how ugly his face would be when he saw him and knew the result. But this matter is beneficial to the overall interests of the Xi people, and what can they do if they are dissatisfied and dissatisfied? Zhuang Yi wants to do big things, so naturally he won't have too many scruples. As a result, there were some more uninvited guests at this banquet, which is of course a good thing for Sunu, and his status will be recognized, further consolidated, and his influence will be expanded. Naturally, he was extremely enthusiastic about the newly arrived Shuli, and the bone slave, Bao En and others, and settled their subordinates one by one.
That night, everyone pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and the guests and hosts enjoyed the banquet.
