Chapter 198 Conclusion

I didn't reply to Yuan Jian why I know yoga, and instead said to Wen Tianxiang: "This man in black should not be sent by the Miao people. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, so does the minister."

"Don't talk about this man in black, Song Rui, you continue."

After a short rest, the three of them stepped on their horses again. Wen Tianxiang saw that Wen Zhang was injured, and although it was past noon, he had to slow down and gallop towards Miao Village.

The name of Miao Village is called Detam, which means "beautiful canyon".

Halfway through noon, the three of them came to the gate of Detam Village.

Wen Tianxiang saw that the door was closed, and his heart was also slightly unhappy. Lan Yu grabbed the reins and said loudly: "Master Tianjing Tianzhai, Lord Qin Chawen is here as promised, please open the door." ”

Tian Jing, the owner of the village, and a young man in his early twenties were standing on the arrow tower on the left side of the walled gate, when they heard the voice of Lan Yu and knew that it was the imperial court. Tian Jing saw that Qin Cha only brought two escorts to come, and he also admired Wen Tianxiang's courage, and thought for a while: "The time that my Miao Village and Lord Qin Cha made an appointment was noon, and at this time it was already half past noon, and my Miao people were the most trustworthy, I heard that Lord Qin Cha Wen was also a very trustworthy person, could it be that you came here under false names?" ”

Lan Yu was furious, regardless of what official position Tianxiang was, as a Qincha, he represented the emperor, this Tian Jing treated him like this, it was disrespectful to the emperor, it was too disrespectful.

Wen Tianxiang saw that Lan Yu was about to get angry, and remembered my warning before leaving, but calmed down and stretched out his hand to signal Lan Yu not to act rashly.

"It is said that Miao people are bold, and your Tianjingtian Dazhai master is a hero in this area, but I didn't expect to be so hospitable, are you afraid of me and the other three?" Wen Tianxiang immediately stepped forward.

"Afraid? Who have I been afraid of? What a joke. ”

"If you're not afraid, why don't you dare to open the door to welcome guests?"

"Tian hasn't seen Qincha, but he made an appointment with Lord Qincha to meet at noon, and now the hour has passed, who knows if you are pretending?"

"Haha." Wen Tianxiang laughed and said, "Tian Jing, you privately sent someone to stop the official in front of the dwarf village, so that the official was half an hour late, and now you don't dare to open the door to greet the official and the other three, aren't you afraid?" ”

Tian Jing was stunned: "When will I send someone to stop you?" ”

"Look at the blood stains on my officer's shirt. Fortunately, this official has a big life, otherwise it would have been as you wished. ”

The young man next to Tian Jing said, "Father, it's really bloodstained." ”

Wen Tianxiang continued: "Even if this official is not Qincha, there are only three of us, there are thousands of people in your Miao Village, and the door of the village is still closed, isn't it afraid?" Or maybe this is your way of hospitality, it seems that the outside world rumors that Miao people are hospitable, but it is not true. ”

Tian Jing's old face turned red and said, "Open the door." ”

The architecture and costumes of the Miao people are different from those of the Han people, and their characteristics are distinctive and easy to identify.

After seeing the Qincha token handed over by Lan Yu in front of the walled gate, the young man beside Tian Jing solemnly saluted and said: "In Xiatian, I have been drunk for a long time, and I have heard the name of Master Wen for a long time. Just now I was offended by the village, and I ask for your forgiveness, but my cottage did not send someone to ambush the adult halfway, please believe this. Lord Qincha please, my father waited in the hall in the village. ”

Tian Zuiyan knew that attacking Qincha was a capital crime, and it was a crime of destroying the door, so he hurriedly explained.

Wen Tianxiang saw that Tian Zuiyan's words were quite decent, nodded and said, "Let's not mention this matter for the time being." Tian Gongzi, it seems that you are also a scholar. ”

"Back to my lord, it is the first year of Jingding."

"Yes, then later, did you go to Beijing to participate in the palace examination?"

"My lord, after lifting people in the middle of the down, I didn't go to Beijing for reference."

"Why is that?"

"My lord, after the middle school moves, he will travel the world, the so-called travel of thousands of miles is better than reading a hundred books, the world is big, and non-books can be included, so I spent five years traveling abroad to study, and I recently returned to my hometown."

Wen Tianxiang praised: "Well, Tian Gongzi said it well. ”

The area of the Miao Village Hall is very large, although it is not very high, but it is the most magnificent building in the whole Miao Village.

As soon as I entered the hall, I saw more than a dozen topless Miao men standing on both sides of the hall, these people were holding bright big knives in their hands, staring at Wen Tianxiang and the other three viciously, but Tian Jing, who was supposed to be sitting on the main seat, was not there.

Tian Zuiyan frowned slightly, and said, "Nonsense, how can anyone treat Lord Qincha like this." ”

Wen Tianxiang saw that Tian was drunk and didn't seem to be pretentious, and said loudly: "Tian Gongzi, it's okay, it seems that the lord of Tian Zhai is setting up a Hongmen banquet for this official." However, this situation really confirms the timidity in your heart, the owner of the village. Tian Dazhai master, is what the official said right? ”

After speaking, Wen Tianxiang laughed loudly and walked through the knife formation. Where the three of them passed, the big men with knives on both sides seemed to be driven by some force, and they involuntarily took three or five steps backwards before they regained their footing. The Miao people in the hall didn't see any movement of the three Han people, and only looked at each other in shock. The Miao people worship heroes and believe in gods, and when they see this scene, they immediately revere it.

Tian Jing knew that there must be a master among the three of Wen Tianxiang, but he didn't expect to be so smart. Tian Jing walked out embarrassedly and said: "I don't know that Lord Qin has arrived, Tian has missed the distance, forgive your sins." ”

Wen Tianxiang looked at Tian Jingdao, who was insincere: "Why does this official think that it seems more difficult to meet the owner of the Tianzhai than to meet the emperor?" ”

Before, Tian Jing saw that Wen Tianxiang dared to come to Miao Village with only two guards, as a civil official, he was covered in blood but did not have the slightest timidity, but now he smiled arrogantly in the face of the knife array, and felt that it was very different from other Han officials. Tian Jing thought that since Wen Tianxiang was a Qincha, he must be responding to the front and back, and the team of people came, and he wanted to take the lead in terms of momentum, so that he could get the same status as Wang Kang in front of Qincha, but he didn't expect that his guess was completely wrong, and he had been completely defeated in terms of momentum.

Tian Jing couldn't answer, so he had to smile and say, "My lord is joking, and I'm laughing." ”

Wen Tianxiang glanced at Tian Jing coldly, then sat directly on the main seat in the middle, and said solemnly: "Tian Jing, are you guilty?" ”

"My lord, what is Tian's crime?"

"Tian Jing, you gathered people to surround the county government, can you do this?"

"My lord, this is ......"

Wen Tianxiang didn't wait for Tian Jing to distinguish, and continued: "Not only that, but he also injured the official and forcibly took Tian Fang away, is there such a thing?" ”

"My lord, there is such a thing, but it is just ......"

Wen Tianxiang snorted and interrupted: "Let's not mention the attack on this official halfway, you are even more obstructing the entry of this official, this official is ordered to be a messenger, that is, on behalf of the emperor, what is the difference between your behavior and bullying the king?" Even if you claim to be a good man, you shouldn't think about the lives of thousands of people in your Miao Village. ”

According to the law, it is a great sin to deceive the king, and it is not an exaggeration to destroy the family.

Tian Jing didn't think about rebellion, at this time the momentum had been dissipated, and Wen Tianxiang put on a bullying hat, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "My lord, I, I am guilty." ”

Tian Zuiyan on the side also hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "My lord, there is a reason for this matter, please listen to it in detail." ”

"Well, Tian Gongzi, you have a meritorious reputation, get up and speak."

"Master Xie."

Tian Zuiyan got up and told the story clearly, and finally said: "My lord, my father did not think about this matter carefully, and it also violated the laws of our dynasty, but it was the county magistrate Wang Kang who was unfair first, and I asked my lord to convict him as appropriate." ”

Wen Tianxiang listened, stared at the two of them for a long time, until he saw that the two of them were uncomfortable, and then said: "Tian Gongzi, Tian Zhai master, you first listen to the words of the official, you should also know that this matter is not a big deal, why did the emperor send the official to come in person?" ”

Tian Zuiyan shook his head and said, "My lord, I am stupid, please advise." ”

"Today's emperor is a saint, and he is really a king of the ages. The emperor said specifically for this matter, the Miao and Han tribes belong to China, and they are both the people of the Great Song Dynasty, so they should be close to each other like brothers and get along in harmony. ”

"The emperor was going to visit me?" Tian Jing said excitedly.

You must know that the emperors of previous dynasties were wary of the Miao people, but Wen Tianxiang's words clearly told Tian Jing that the current emperor regards the Miao people as a brother nation, which has not been seen since ancient times.

"Master of the village, you should also get up."

"Lord Sechincha."

"For the nationalities of our dynasty, whether Han Miao or others, the emperor has clearly instructed that all are equal if they do not violate the laws of our dynasty, and even if there are ethnic discrimination clauses in the law, they must be corrected."

"The emperor is wise." Tian Jing praised loudly, and Tian Zuiyan also nodded thoughtfully in agreement.

Hearing this, I was quite satisfied with Wen Tianxiang's performance, perhaps influenced by me, Wen Tianxiang's way of doing things somewhat has my style. As the future president of the Government Council, I will of course require him to fully understand my directives so that they can carry them out to the letter.

At this point, it's getting simpler.

Tian Jing expressed unconditional obedience to Wen Tianxiang's ruling, and said that he would travel west to other Miao villages after the incident, tell them the emperor's views on the problems of various ethnic groups, and finally marry Wen Tianxiang as brothers.

"Ah, the knot?"

I think of the alliance between Yi and Han during the Long March, General Liu Bocheng and Xiao Yedan, the leader of the Yi nationality, did not know each other, and finally became brothers and became a legend. History is strikingly similar, except that chronologically, this time history repeats itself upside down.
