The wolf mastiff is so fierce, all the guards have changed color in horror, although these guards are all warriors who regard death as home, but when they see such a cruel beast, their hearts are also cold.

The wolf mastiff squatted next to Song Ming's corpse, devouring human flesh, the prince frowned slightly, looked at Zou Hong, and said, "It's really cruel...... These two beasts, this palace accepted, but...... How does Hongu tame them? ”

"Your Highness, with these two wolverous mastiffs, it is like having two powerful guards." Zou Hong said proudly: "From now on, they must obey His Highness." A glance passed, an entourage came over, holding a wooden box, Zou Hong opened the box and took out a pair of white gloves from it, "Your Highness, this is not another gift, this silkworm glove has always been brought by the tamer of these two wolf mastiffs...... There is also a green bamboo tube, as long as His Royal Highness wears white silk gloves, they will regard His Royal Highness as the master, this green bamboo tube, like the general's order flag, where it points, these two wolf mastiffs will pounce on it! ”

The silkworm gloves are exceptionally delicate in workmanship, seemingly light and thin like cicada wings, but they are extremely tough, like a green bamboo tube, just made of jasper into the appearance of a bamboo tube, but the thickness of the thumb is only, and the workmanship is also very exquisite.

The prince didn't speak, just looked at the two things, Zou Hong was of course not stupid, handed the gloves to the entourage next to him, the entourage put on the gloves, and then walked to the wolf mastiff, the wolf mastiff was eating human flesh, but still very alert, hearing a figure behind him, he got up instantly, turned his head, fangs like knives, and there was bloody flesh hanging on it, extremely hideous and terrifying, but when he saw the entourage wearing gloves, he became surprisingly docile, like a very well-behaved puppy that was tamed and trained, and walked to the entourage.

The entourage reached out and stroked its back, and then patted its back, the wolf mastiff squatted down very obediently, and the entourage immediately squatted down, grabbed the wolf mastiff's jaw, and then turned around to look at Zou Hong, saw Zou Hong nodded, and then got up and went over, guided the wolf mastiff back to the iron cage, closed the iron door, and then returned to Zou Hong, took off the gloves, and presented them to Zou Hong, Zou Hong put the gloves and green bamboo tube back into the wooden box, and presented them to the prince very respectfully, "Please Your Highness smile!" ”

The prince motioned for Tian Hou to accept it, and ordered: "Bury Song Ming thickly, and re-compensate his family......!" Tian Hou respectfully said yes, and ordered someone to clean up Song Ming's body, and the prince instructed Tian Hou to push the wheelchair, so that Zou Hong followed him, and walked along the long road of the martial arts field, and asked: "Do you Governor Feng like to raise this kind of fierce beast very much?" ”

"Returning to His Highness, the Governor's favorite thing to do is not to raise fierce beasts, but to be loyal to the Holy Lord and His Royal Highness the Prince, to guard the north for the imperial court, and to tame those barbarians." Zou Hong bowed and said.

The prince smiled and said, "You are the head of the Ministry of Rites?" can speak well, but it also lives up to your sharp teeth. Then he asked, "I heard that Governor Feng met the Northern Xinjiang Trade Ground on the border west of the river, what is the situation now?" ”

"With the permission of the Holy Lord, the Governor began to prepare for the establishment of a trading ground in Northern Xinjiang as early as possible." Zou Hong responded: "The barbarians have always admired the richness and wealth of my Great Qin, and they are very fond of the goods of my Great Qin, and although they are barbarian lands, they also have some good things, after the establishment of the Northern Xinjiang Trade Field, the trade is very prosperous, many domestic merchants have gone to the Northern Xinjiang Trade Ground to do trade, and the barbarian departments also have special teams to trade ...... the Trade Field!" ”

The prince said: "I heard in this palace that there are no less than dozens of barbarian tribes, hating each other, fighting and killing all year round, and I heard that the Northern Xinjiang Trade Ground is a post station set up on the northern border of my Great Qin and Yibarian Desert......!" ”

"Yellow Wind Station!" Zou Hong immediately said: "In the northernmost part of Hexi, in Liangyi, only ten miles away from Liangcheng, Huangfengyi was originally a patrol post, and now it is the northern Xinjiang trade place, and at the head of Liangcheng City, you can see the situation of the northern Xinjiang trade field at a glance." The Northern Xinjiang Trade Ground is in good order, Liangcheng is the first city facing Mobei, the geographical location is very important, Governor Feng has been sending people to strengthen and heighten, from the original a small border city, has expanded quite a scale, the Governor has deployed heavy troops there, there are Liangcheng's soldiers and horses, enough to ensure the safety of the Northern Xinjiang Trade Field. ”

"What this palace means is that entering the Northern Xinjiang Trade Ground from the territory of the barbarians is not something that all the barbarian tribes can do, right?" The prince said slowly: "If the barbarian tribes in the north want to reach the northern Xinjiang trading ground, they will have to pass through the territory of other tribes, and other tribes will let them pass through?" It is said that the barbarians are all brutal and ferocious, and the tribes hate each other, so that the barbarians in the south are the only ones who can do business in the northern Xinjiang trading grounds? ”

Zou Hong immediately shook his head and smiled: "Your Highness, the establishment of the Northern Xinjiang Trade Ground, in fact, many years ago, the Governor had such a plan. Governor Feng sits in Hexi, and in the past, the barbarian tribes often invaded the northern border of our Great Qin, but they have been beaten by Governor Feng for many years, and the barbarian tribes are now afraid of the governor like a tiger. When Governor Feng was governing Hexi, he found that although the border commerce was prosperous, it was very messy, so he had always been interested in rectifying the trade on both sides, so that he could pay a large amount of extra taxes to the imperial court every year. ”

The crown prince didn't speak, Tian Hou pushed him slowly on the flat road, and Zou Hong followed along to explain, "Governor Feng has already made some arrangements in advance before proposing the idea of establishing a trading field to the Holy Lord, and has summoned the beggars of several large tribes of Yiman......!" After a pause, he explained: "Your Highness, the beggar is the leader of the barbarian tribe...... The governor asked them about the trading ground, in fact, the barbarians were naturally willing to do good trade with our Great Qin, and the governor put forward this idea, and those barbarian beggars immediately agreed. The Governor immediately made an agreement with them, once the Northern Xinjiang Trade Ground was established, the trade between the barbarian tribes and Daqin must be regulated, and that kind of chaotic private trade was not allowed, Governor Feng allowed every tribe to have a caravan that had always been qualified to trade with Daqin, and issued a flag to each tribe, only a caravan with the qualification to trade could play this flag, and the composition of the caravan was completely prepared by the tribes themselves, in the northern steppe of the desert, as long as you see such a flag, No tribe can add up to each other with swords, otherwise everyone will be punished! ”

The prince said with a smile: "It seems that Jing Zhonghou really scared the courage of the barbarians, and the barbarians are really obedient to our Jing Zhonghou!" ”

Zou Hong hurriedly said: "Your Highness, in fact, this is not the obedience of the barbarians, but this matter is related to their interests. In the past, there were many barbarians who traded with us in private, and even the tribes themselves did not know about it, and there were also a group of barbarian beggars specially sent to trade, in fact, in order to enter the territory of our Great Qin and inquire about the news, they were barbarian spies. But now that Governor Feng has set up the Northern Xinjiang Trade Field, the barbarian caravans can only do business in the Northern Xinjiang Trade Field, and cannot go deep into the territory of Daqin, and their caravans will enter the Northern Xinjiang Trade Field, where there will be special officials to register their numbers and names, and there will be a few people when they come, and a few people when they leave, which will prevent them from taking the opportunity to sneak into our Daqin. ”

"Jing Zhonghou is still very capable." The crown prince bowed his head and said: "According to what you said, the establishment of the Northern Xinjiang Trade Ground will bring a tax to the imperial court?" ”

"This ......!" Zou Hong bowed his body and said: "Your Highness, now Hexi is devoting himself to building a palace for the saint, which costs a huge amount of money, and the manpower, material and financial resources are expensive, so ...... The Holy Lord has also decreed that in recent years, the taxes obtained from the trading places in Northern Xinjiang will be temporarily assigned to the Hexi Provincial Household Department for the construction of the palace ......! ”

The crown prince sighed and said, "With one force, it is difficult to build such a huge palace. After a pause, he said: "After going back, tell Jing Zhonghou that the two wolf mastiffs he gave to Bengong liked them very much, so he bothered." ”

Zou Hong immediately said: "Your Highness must convey His Royal Highness's intentions." ”

Feng Yuanpo was very attentive to the emperor and the crown prince, Chu Huan naturally didn't know, he was in the northwest, and he paid less attention to the capital at the moment, at least for the moment, his main energy was on Xiguan.

Chu Huan was on the head of Shuoquan City at this time, Shuoquan City was more than ten meters high, and the city was overlooked, and the visual range was extremely far, so Chu Huan put his hands behind his back and looked out of the city.

Under the city, the crowd is bustling and muttering, a large area of black pressure, the common people love to see the liveliness, and today, in the city head of Shuoquan City, there is a big bustle to see.

The most lively topic in the city in the past two days is the gambling contract between Ma Shenpo and the new governor, the tea shop and restaurant, when a few people get together, they will talk about this matter as the most flavorful topic, it seems that if they don't talk about such a topic in the past two days, it is a very shameless thing.

"Your Excellency the Governor, listen to your summons, and the subordinate hurried here." A voice came from behind him, Chu Huan turned his head with his hands behind his back, and saw Dong Shizhen, the governor of Yuezhou, walking over quickly, and when he got close, Dong Shizhen had already bowed, "Why are you here today?" How is it that so many people have gathered under this city? ”

"Master Dong has a lot of affairs, I'm afraid I don't know yet." Chu Huan sighed, "I invite Lord Dong to come today, just to let you be a witness, this governor has made an agreement with Ma Shenpo before, today is the last day of the agreement, and there will always be a winner." ”

Dong Shizhen patted his head and blamed himself: "The lower official almost forgot." This matter has been talked about in the city for the past two days, and the lower officials have also heard people talk about it, just as a joke, how can the adult have a noble status, how can he worry about the horse goddess...... Could it be that the rumors in the market are true, and the adults are really ...... Did you really have a gambling contract with the horse goddess? ”

"Ma Shenpo said that the Governor is a plague god, but the Governor is a local magistrate sent by the saint, and the saint is the great benevolence and true monarch of heaven, and the one sent by the decree can only be the righteous god who rescues the dawn and the common people, how can he be the plague god?" Du Fugong beside Chu Huan looked calm, and said calmly: "On the contrary, we already know that Ma Shenpo is the real plague god, and the disaster Xiguan is in full view today, let everyone take a look, who is the plague god, who is the true god!" ”

Dong Shizhen smiled embarrassedly: "This ...... How does this have to do with the plague god? ”

"Master Dong, it doesn't matter if you are plagued or not." Chu Huan sighed: "Today, if the Ma Shenpo really proves that the Governor is the plague god, then the Governor naturally has no possibility of staying in Xiguan, everything is sent by the Horse Goddess, if she lets the Governor get out of Xiguan, the Governor's luggage has been packed, and she will leave today, if she is not reconciled like this, she has to remove the ...... of the plague god of the Governor!" Chu Huan turned around and his eyes fell outside the city, "This governor can only jump from this city and return the people of Xiguan to a peaceful world!" ”
