~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Although it was unexpected to see the Jiankun people and the Wudan people in the Xiyue Division, if you think about it carefully, it is actually expected. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 On that day, the combined forces of Jiankun, Ding Ling, and Hujie joined forces with the Kangju people to cut off the way for the Huns to flee north, and killed the Xiongnu Zuo Dadanghu Suogulie.
"We have been leading our men and horses to parade on the north bank of the Dulai River and block the road of the Huns to the north. After the Han army broke the Zhizhi city, he wanted to go to the camp to meet the capital and the Han envoys, but later heard that the king of Xiyue said that he would invite Zhang Gongzi to come, so he greeted Gongzi here. ”
Li Ren said, exchanged glances with Cao Xiong, Lin Tianci, and Chu Liu, and suddenly dressed up and bowed down: "Gongzi killed Zhizhi to avenge my Li clan and the Jiankun people, please accept my wait." ”
Zhang let go of his hand and paused halfway, shook his head and smiled bitterly, and reluctantly accepted the worship of the four people.
The other three all bowed up, but Li Ren bowed a little more, got up and said, "This is for Lu Nu, the right general can look at it." ”
Behind Li Ren and the others, there were several strong barbarian men wearing animal skins, their faces painted with various dyes, and their bodies exuding an unpleasant smell. They looked at Zhang Fang with strange eyes, a look of disbelief and a little cringe, and when they saw Li Ren and the others thanking them, they also hesitated to come over to greet them.
Zhang Fang knew at this time that these were the leaders of Ding Ling and Hujie Zhubu.
Chu Liu looked at the empty space and whispered to Zhang Fang that after these barbarians first heard that Zhang Fang had killed Zhizhi, they also shouted that they wanted to compete with this Han warrior. After hearing the rumors of the "Bronze Heavenly General", one or two were silent. Without him, the more the off-road barbarian tribes are afraid of this supernatural technique, and they all regard Zhang Fang as a witch.
However, Li Ren and others knew the so-called "heavenly thunder", but they were tight-lipped, whether it was to Kangju people, or Ding Lingren or Hujieren, they did not say anything.
Zhang Fang listened, patted Chu Liu's shoulder, and nodded to Li Ren, Cao Xiong, Lin Tianci and others, very appreciative.
After the ceremony, as an invited guest, the first thing Zhang Fang did was to distribute the greeting gift. This is not empty-handed, whether in a civilized society or a wild tribe, it is the same.
The gift given by Zhang Fang naturally came from that box of belongings. Personally selected by Chen Tang, it is naturally not an ordinary thing, and each piece is worth a lot. Even Bei Se and Kai Mou, the father and son who are accustomed to seeing treasures, also smiled. The leaders of Ding Ling and Hujie were also very happy to play with the gem-studded scimitars.
The gifts given by Zhang Fang are all targeted, and they can basically do what they like, so that the gifts they give can really be worth the money. Obviously, he has done a good job in this regard, and has won unanimous praise from the nobles of all tribes.
Before leaving, Zhang Fang specially asked the messenger, is the little princess of Kangju still in the Rhino Moon Department? After getting a positive reply, I was quite brain-stricken, picking and choosing, and finally picked out something that was still decent and carefully packaged it in a brocade box.
When Yasha was the last to take the gift box, she blinked her big amber eyes curiously, and couldn't help but ask, "What is it?" ”
Zhang Fang smiled and said nothing.
So Yasha couldn't wait to open it, and was stunned.
Chu Liu stretched his neck and glanced at it, but he couldn't see anything famous, but seeing that the expression of the little princess of Kangju was really strange, he secretly pulled Lin Tianci's sleeve: "Brother Lin, what is in that box?" ”
Lin Tianci slapped the sixth day of the first month: "Don't peep rudely." Saying that, but seeing the little princess's strange expression, she still glanced at it casually, and then suddenly sweated.
Over there, Zhang Fang also noticed that something seemed to be wrong, and before he had time to think about it, he was surrounded by Kangju nobles holding wine glasses. In the chaos, I saw a snow-white little hand squeezing from the crowd, handing him something, Zhang put down his consciousness and reached out to take it, and when he saw it, he was even more confused. When he looked up again, the little hand and its owner were gone.
When the successive waves of toasting stopped, Lin Tianci approached with the bowl, and while toasting Zhang Fang, he lowered his voice and said: "Zhang Gongzi, was the gift you gave to the little princess of Kangju intentional or unintentional?" ”
Zhang Fang began to realize that he seemed to have made a mistake, and said in a deep voice: "It's purely unintentional, what?" Particular? ”
Lin Tianci smiled bitterly: "What is wrong with the son, he wants to send the jade Linglong, even if it is in the Han realm, this is also a thing of love between men and women, how can the son not know?" ”
Lin Tianci's gaze was full of suspicion, and this would be replaced by Zhang Fang's wry smile. The conscience of heaven and earth, he really doesn't know the meaning of jade exquisite. In fact, when he saw the strange-shaped jade objects in the box at that time, he didn't know that this was jade Linglong. Later, I asked Tao Sheng to know that I had the impression that this seemed to be a woman's favorite thing, so I took it as a gift and gave it to the little princess of Kangju, but I didn't expect it......
"If the son is really an unintentional mistake, it's still too late." Lin Tianci whispered, "As long as the son finds an excuse and gives other gifts, he will exchange that jade Linglong for ...... Of course, there is a lot of reparation. ”
"Is that okay?" Zhang Fang didn't dare to be determined at will now.
"It should be feasible, but you have to hurry, if the little princess of Kangju returns Longyu, it will be troublesome."
"This ...... Why is that? Zhang Fang felt that his throat was dry, and he quickly drank the wine in the bowl.
Lin Tianci's expression seemed to be smiling: "If the little princess returns half a beautiful jade, it means that she accepts the son." ”
After Lin Tianci finished speaking, he left, and a drop of sweat on Zhang Fang's forehead fell into the bowl - his other hand was holding half a long jade.
What is this called......
Let's put this ridiculous thing down first, Zhang Fang is here to discuss serious matters. After a celebratory feast, irrelevant people withdrew from the tent, leaving only Zhang Fang, Tu Mo, Bei Se, and Kai Mou in the tent.
"You're not drunk, it's good, let's talk about the condominium and development of Star City." Zhang Fang's gaze swept over the faces of the four of them one by one, and said with a smile, "Star Picking City is the name I gave, what do you think?" ”
Kai Mou high-fived and smiled: "Okay! A good name, imposing, worthy of being a Hanhou. ”
Tu Mo and Bei Se glanced at each other and didn't say anything. The city was laid down by the Han army, and it was reserved by the young man in front of him, and he did have the right to name it.
"This city, my opinion is that the three of us jointly manage it." Zhang Fang knew that Hu Ren didn't like to go around the bend, so he was also very direct, spreading out a floor plan of Star City, connecting his fingers, and his mouth kept stopping, "The two alleys in the north city, and the east gate are mine; The west and south regions are divided into two of you; The central Miyagi is jointly managed by the three families, and they take turns to guard and use. How is it? ”
Zhang Fang divided this division, he himself accounted for nearly half, and Tu Mo and Beise father and son divided the other half. Not only that, the east and north areas, near the water, are the first choice for merchants to enter the city, where there are ready-made markets, which is very convenient. Zhang Fang's occupation of these two places is very much in line with the values of the grassland -- the strong side, which has the leading power and the most efforts, naturally occupies the greatest benefits, and it is only natural that the strong side has the most power.
Tu Mo discussed with Bei Se and his son for a while and accepted. To put it bluntly, if the Han army wants to occupy or destroy all of this city, they have no way at all. Now that people are willing to share with them, it's good to get a piece of their pie, but it's hard to ask for more.
Tu Mo said tentatively: "Will the Han army garrison here?" ”
Zhang Fang smiled: "We don't have an army to station, the garrison is your business - this is the main reason why I divided the west and south to the kings, you want to ensure the safety of this city, I believe you will do your best." ”
Bei Se's eyes flashed, and he said, "Childe wants this...... What is the purpose of Star City? ”
Zhang Fang tapped his finger on the floor plan, looked around at the people, and his eyes were shining: "Trade City!" (To be continued.) )
