Chapter 607: Aunt and Nephew
With an "ah", the movement in Liu Xin's hand stopped abruptly. Minchan raised her head, and when she saw Liu Xin's sad expression, she couldn't help but laugh out loud. After Liu Xin's caresses, Diao Chan had completely recovered from the sadness just now, and blinked mischievously and said, "Master, why don't you let Lanier accompany you tonight." ”
Although Lanier is only thirteen years old this year, she has grown up on horseback since she was a child, and she has lived on the grassland for a long time, and her body is much stronger than that of ordinary Han daughters, and as a Hun woman, she should have married a long time ago at this age. To be honest, Liu Xin still has a bit of Han nationalism, for Han women, he is really worried that doing that kind of thing too early will cause harm to them, but for a Hun girl, he is not so kind.
All the way over, he was camping in the wilderness, although the beauty was in his arms, Liu Xin couldn't do anything, but he couldn't hold him lightly. I was going to take advantage of the opportunity to live in the city today to relax, but when I encountered this incident again, Liu Xin was depressed again. Now hearing Minchan's promise to let Lanier accompany her, and then thinking of Laniel's plump round buttocks and slender and well-proportioned legs that she had cultivated because of long-term horseback riding, Liu Xin couldn't help but feel a burst of heartbeat.
But you can't agree to it as soon as Minchan says it, and the necessary reserve is still indispensable. So, Liu Xin reached out and pinched Diaochan's pretty face, and pretended to be angry: "What are you talking about, she's just a child." Forget it, I'm going to go tomorrow, so go to bed early. ”
The result was completely different from what Liu Xin expected, Minchan did not continue to insist, but said helplessly: "That's it, then let's go back quickly." ”
Seeing Liu Xin walking back dejectedly, Minchan couldn't help but "hum" softly. Minchan is not stupid, Ma Yun asked her to come with her, originally to watch this flowery guy, where would she take the initiative to arrange a woman for Liu Xin.
When Liu Xin turned around, she saw Mink Chan smiling, naturally holding his arm, and gently leaning her head on his shoulder, looking like a little bird, where you could still see that she was half dissatisfied. Liu Xin looked up again, and happened to see a plaque hanging on the pavilion, with three big characters "Fengyi Pavilion" written on it. Liu Xin shook his head unconsciously and smiled bitterly, with such a peerless stunner by his side, this trip to the Western Regions, don't think about any sexual encounters.
It was dawn and the team continued on its way. Minchan got into the carriage with the help of Lanier, and then Yan Rui pulled Lu Qiling to climb up. Minchan looked at Yan Rui and was startled, and asked repeatedly, "Sister Yan, what's wrong with your eyes?" ”
A year ago, in this courtyard, Yan Rui was almost raped by Liu Xin in front of her daughter, and when she revisited the old place, her mood was naturally extremely complicated, and she couldn't sleep this night. Although Yan Rui and Minchan hardly say anything on weekdays, this kind of thing is always difficult to talk about, not to mention that it also involves Liu Xin, so she had to rub her red and swollen eyes, and said, "It's nothing, probably the sand is fascinated." ”
Minchan's ability to observe words and emotions has been practiced since childhood, where can you not see that Yan Ruiyan is insincere, but Minchan has a very good relationship with her, and in front of Lu Qiling, she didn't say anything.
The team left Chang'an all the way to the west, and there were more Jia Xu and Huang Zhong in the entourage, as well as the five thousand cavalry brought by Huang Zhong, and the speed of the march was even slower, and it was only in the evening that they came to Maoling County in Fufeng County, Liu Xin couldn't help but think of the story of "Maoling's children", which was the proper noun of "rich second generation" at that time.
Liu Xin imagined the scene of the rich second generation and the second generation of officials spending money and extravagance, and couldn't help asking: "Is Maoling still as prosperous as before?" ”
Jia Xu shook his head and said, "After the rebellion, it will be broken. ”
Liu Xin nodded and said: "Maoling is only half a day's journey away from Chang'an, if a market is built here, it can not only facilitate business travel to the west, but also facilitate the people of the capital." What does the gentleman think? ”
If you can build a market near Beijing, so that those merchants who don't know the roots can trade here, you don't have to worry about endangering the security of Beijing, but also ensure the needs of the people's daily life, Jia Xu couldn't help but nod again and again.
After another day, he came to the city of Yiwu built by Dong Zhuo, and the city was not inferior to Chang'an, but now it has become a large military base, with more than 10,000 elite soldiers stationed all year round. In Yiwu City, the luxurious mansion built by Dong Zhuo is still there, and it has long been cleaned, but Liu Xin's family has slept peacefully here.
Before leaving Yi Wu, Liu Xin sent someone to open a few tightly packed porcelain, only to see that the inside had been densely entangled with bean sprouts. Porcelain is fragile and difficult to transport, but this is difficult for Liu Xin, he remembers that the ancients transported porcelain to cross the ocean, and the way to protect porcelain is to sprinkle soybeans in the package, and then water it on time, and the sprouts will fill all the gaps, so there is no need to worry that the porcelain will break halfway. Now, these soybeans have grown into sprouts, and Liu Xin can finally speed up his travel.
Within a few days, the group passed Anding County and came to Zuli County in Wuwei County, and just set up camp, they heard the report from the guards, and the leader of the Qiang people, Beigong Boyu, asked to see.
Since the Qin Dynasty, the Qiang people have lived in the counties of Longxi and Jincheng, and later migrated several times and have spread all over the counties of Liangzhou. However, most of these migrations were not voluntary among the Qiang people, and many were forced by Han officials. With the change of generations, today's Qiang tribes have been reduced from eighty or ninety in their heyday to more than twenty, and these tribes are tens of thousands of people, and there are only a few thousand, among which the strongest is the Xianling tribe where Beigong Boyu is located.
Liu Xin's route to the Western Regions was absolutely secret, but Beigong Boyu was notified by Liu Xin in advance. This time, if Liu Xin wants to open up the Silk Road, a stable and peaceful Liangzhou rear is indispensable, and it is inevitable to appease the Qiang people.
In the Battle of Guanzhong last year, Liu Xin pardoned Beigong Boyu and promised to treat the Qiang and Han people equally. Since the implementation of this policy, Liu Xin has listened to the reports of officials from all over the country, and he wanted to hear the opinions of the Qiang chieftains, so he took the opportunity of passing through Liangzhou to send people to inform the leaders of the Qiang tribes to meet him in Wuwei City.
But the meeting place notified by Liu Xin was in Wuwei County, not Zuli County, and when he heard that Beigong Boyu actually asked to see him here, Liu Xin's brows furrowed slightly, but he still raised his hand and said, "Let him come in." ”
When he was in Chang'an City, Beigong Boyu was Liu Xin's prisoner, and he was down, but now a year has passed, and there are no traces of that year on his body, and he has returned to his heroic nature. As soon as he entered the big tent, Beigong Boyu turned over and fell to the ground.
Liu Xinling helped him up left and right, and said with a smile: "Beigong Boyu, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing lately?" ”
Beigong Boyu stood up and said with a big grin: "Back then, Lord Meng didn't kill, but also helped my department with grain, grass, cattle and sheep, so that my tribe could survive the cold winter. ”
Liu Xin's face suddenly sank, and he said coldly: "Bold Beigong Boyu, you didn't follow Liu's order to go to Wuwei, but you came here, what do you want?" ”
Beigong Boyu hurriedly said: "The grass people have two gifts that they want to offer to the adults, and they are afraid that they will reach Wuwei and cause misunderstanding among the elders of various clans, so the grass people are specially waiting for the adults here." The grass people have no malicious intentions, and I hope that the adults will see it! ”
At this time, the curtain was lightly lifted, Dian Wei strode in, and whispered in Liu Xin's ear: "Big brother, the younger brother has already led people to check around, Beigong Boyu only brought more than a hundred entourage, their camp is not far ahead, General Huang has already sent someone to surround their camp, whether to take them down in one fell swoop, please decide the eldest brother!" ”
Liu Xin heard that Beigong Boyu did not bring a large group of people to come, his face softened a little, waved his hand, asked Dian Wei to step aside, and said: "Beigong Boyu, as long as the Han and Qiang clans can live in peace and prosper together, as for the gift, I think it is better to be exempt." Liu Mou went west, and he had to inspect the counties and counties along the way, so it was inconvenient for you to follow here, so it was better to take your people to Wuwei and wait. ”
Hearing Liu Xin's eviction order, Beigong Boyu knelt on the ground with a "plop", and kowtowed again and again: "This is just a little bit of the grass people's heart, if the adults refuse to accept it, the grass people will not be able to kneel for a long time." ”
Liu Xin knew that most of the leaders of these ethnic minorities had heroic temperaments, but he didn't want to force each other too much, so he couldn't help but raise his hand and said, "Okay, Liu can't brush off your kindness, you can present the gift." ”
Beigong Boyu was overjoyed, and hurriedly jumped up from the ground, arched his hand and said, "Please wait, my lord, the grass people will come when they go." ”
Liu Xin glanced at Dian Wei, and Dian Wei followed with a big iron halberd.
Jia Xu saw that there was no one in the tent, and whispered: "Lord, be careful of deception." ”
Liu Xin waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I want to see what tricks he can make!" ”
After the boss's effort, Dian Wei returned to the big tent with Beigong Boyu, but the look on Dian Wei's face was a little strange. Liu Xin couldn't help asking, "Beigong Boyu, what kind of gift you said is amazing?" ”
Beigong Boyu was stunned for a moment, and when he turned his head to look, there was no one behind him, and he couldn't help but say angrily: "Why don't you come in and meet your lord!" ”
With his angry shout, two beautiful girls walked in from outside the tent, with narrow sleeves and short skirts, revealing a pair of white long legs, and there were still a few similarities in appearance, probably a pair of Qiang sisters.
Setting up the Western Regions Protectorate, Liu Xin didn't need to go there in person, of course, he also had his own little Jiujiu, and wanted to see what the national beauties of this era looked like, especially whether the legendary Loulan girl was as beautiful as a fairy. But the Western Regions haven't arrived yet, but someone sent the Qiang beauties first, and it seems that there will be no shortage of erotic encounters along the way.
Liu Xin was in a reverie there, and Beigong Boyu had already been introduced there. It turned out that these two Qiang girls, one was his youngest daughter, and the other was his sister, and they were all among the best beauties in the Xianling tribe. Liu Xin couldn't help but be speechless there, this Beigong Boyu really knew how to joke, and actually sacrificed his aunt and nephew.
