Chapter 893: The Victorious Monarch
Xiao Zhan was driving in the car, in front of her were the soldiers and horses of the Wei Dynasty that invaded her land, Suzhou City was originally her city, but now the soldiers stationed here are all Han Jian's soldiers and horses. She maintained the demeanor of a king, but she herself was reduced to a commodity of grain, and there was really no etiquette to talk about.
The sound of drums and trumpets remembered that there were small groups of chariots and horses in the city, which were connected before and after, and finally dozens of carts of grain were transported from the city, with more than 30,000 defenders in Hangzhou today, these grains could support the licensed goods to become the defenders for half a month. Although Xiao Zhan had also calculated in her heart how much food she could exchange for herself, judging from what she could see, this figure obviously did not satisfy her.
Han Jian jumped off the horse, and the rest of the soldiers on the horse also dismounted. Han Jian walked slowly in front of Xiao Zhan in front of the thousands of soldiers present.
Xiao Zhan looked at Han Jian coldly, she didn't know what Han Jian was going to do, she thought that she was just a hostage, and she expected that Han Jian, as the monarch of the Northern Dynasty, was once such a polite and polite king of the East, and he should not make any arrogant moves towards her, but Han Jian went straight to Xiao Zhan's car. In the end, Xiao Zhan also looked at Han Jian a little nervously, she really didn't know what to say now.
"You ......" Xiao Zhan really didn't know how to call Han Jian, so he could only use the simplest name, "Why don't you believe in your words." ”
Xiao Zhan only asked Han Jian alone, but she didn't publicize it, because she still had to do her best to get more food and grass for the soldiers and civilians in Hangzhou City.
Han Jian smiled: "How can I not believe what I say? ”
Xiao Zhan was angry for a while, and Han Jian also called himself me in front of her, so needless to say, he regarded her as a courtier. Just as Han Jian said this, he had already boarded the car further, one step closer to Xiao Zhan. Xiao Zhan sat there and was already a little flustered in his heart, and the prestige that he was supposed to maintain could no longer be maintained.
"You...... How. Xiao Zhan shrank back a little.
She was well aware of her situation, whether she was a hostage, or as a cargo in exchange for food. But even so, the king of the Northern Dynasty could not step into her car so rashly, in such a crowd. What kind of system has this become? She was not only a king, but also a woman who had not yet been married.
Han Jian said with a smile: "The eldest princess should be disgusted with the lack of food I gave, but it is an exchange, if the eldest princess is only in the identity of a proton, she can only exchange so much food, if she wants more food, I am afraid that the princess will have to know some etiquette." ”
Han Jian's words were aggressive, and Han Jian's body was even more domineering, and at this time, Han Jian had already walked in front of Xiao Zhan. Just when Xiao Zhan wanted to open his mouth to reprimand, Han Jian suddenly leaned over and picked Xiao Zhan up, Xiao Zhan was also a master of martial arts and swordsmanship, but in front of Han Jian, let alone resisting, he didn't even have time to react, so he suddenly felt that his body was light, and the whole person fell into Han Jian's arms.
Xiao Zhan lost his mind for a short time. Quickly reacting, she wanted to break free. But he immediately realized what Han Jian meant by what he said before. If she came as a proton, she could only exchange those grains, and if she wanted to exchange more grains, she would have to be even more humiliated, and let Han Jian establish prestige in front of his people.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhan could only close his eyes with hatred. If you've decided to sacrifice yourself, why bother so much. Or Han Jian is also perfecting her, only by making the soldiers of the Southern Dynasty feel the humiliation she has suffered, can she fight bloodily for King Qin, and only if she appears in front of the soldiers of the Northern Dynasty as the monarch of a defeated country. The soldiers of the Northern Dynasty will be arrogant and impatient, thinking that they will have the chance to win, and will create opportunities for her people.
Since it is mutual fulfillment, Xiao Zhan can only let Han Jian's rudeness, and she who is held in Han Jian's arms can't even look up to see everything in front of her. Because she herself had never felt such humiliation, with her strength, she would not cry like a woman in front of Han Jian, but her body trembled because of this, and she also knew that Han Jian would definitely feel this.
In this way, Han Jian walked out of Xiao Zhan, who was wearing the crown of the king of the Southern Dynasty, from Xiao Zhan's luan, and when the soldiers present saw it, they immediately burst into earth-shattering cheers. Han Jian was like a commander who had personally captured an enemy general on the battlefield, showing off his "trophies" in front of his soldiers. At this time, there was not a single soldier who did not feel proud of what he saw.
Even the empress of the Southern Dynasty became a prisoner and was carried out by Han Jian, which means that the Southern Dynasty is already in name only, as long as the soldiers work together, it will not take long to capture the capital of the Southern Dynasty and become the master of the Southern Dynasty.
Han Jian in the cheers of the soldiers, holding Xiao Zhan very slowly walked to the Luan car that came out of the city to greet him, it was Han Jian's own car, and when Han Jian walked up with Xiao Zhan, the sound of the soldiers' cheers was even worse, Han Jian seemed to have never been so tall in the minds of the soldiers, and the smiles on the soldiers' faces were not only excited, but also with a kind of pride and joy of the soldiers of the victorious country.
Han Jian finally put Xiao Zhan on the cushion, and then he turned around and waved to the soldiers who were cheering for him, and then Han Jian lowered the curtain on Luan's car. The chariot began to move in the direction of the city.
The soldiers were still cheering, and the voice was very harsh to Xiao Zhan. She couldn't help but reach out to plug her ears, but now she had to face something even more cruel, that is, Han Jian suddenly wanted to sit down in front of her.
"What the hell are you going to do?" Xiao Zhan glared at Han Jian angrily, the grievances that he hadn't vented just now seemed to be vented at the same time.
Her body trembled with anger, and although Han Jian didn't immediately violate her further, she felt that Han Jian would not stop there.
Han Jian said with a natural smile on his face: "Eldest princess, don't forget, this is just a transaction from beginning to end. In the end, how much the eldest princess is worth, and how much food she can get back, is not decided from the moment the eldest princess arrives, but completely depends on the attitude of the eldest princess. ”
Xiao Zhan was stunned on the spot for a while.
Yes, it's a deal in itself, she's just a traded commodity. Then what qualifications does she have to bargain with Han Jian?
But she immediately realized that she was not just a cargo, she was also the king of the Southern Dynasty, she had integrity and backbone, she had to maintain her demeanor in front of Han Jian, and she also had to maintain her demeanor in front of the soldiers of the Northern Dynasty. This was all planned before she came to Yangzhou City, and she even thought about arguing with Han Jian like this, and also thought about how to fight the Confucianism of the Northern Dynasties. But only now, did she realize that her plans were far less detailed than Han Jian's plans, and she was the goods that were exchanged. There was no choice at all, and Han Jian just used the method of picking her up and walking past the soldiers of the Northern Dynasty to resolve the crisis of trust in the minds of the soldiers.
Although Han Jian has expanded his territory in the past few years, which has greatly encouraged the soldiers of the Northern Dynasties, after all, as the emperor, Han Jian wants to settle the hearts of all the people of the Northern Dynasties.
Now that Han Jian is leading his troops south, it seems that he is stuck in a quagmire and cannot extricate himself, and Han Jian has not withdrawn his troops for a long time. There have long been complaints among the soldiers, especially when the New Year is about to end, and the soldiers are even more worried about returning to their homeland to reunite with their marrymen as soon as possible. At this time, Su Tingxia's soldiers and horses marched south, which showed that Han Jian's troops showed no signs of stopping, and at this time Han Jian wanted to use Sima to contain Su Tingxia's soldiers and horses, knowing that Sima was short of food in the army, and wanted to "borrow" food. It is also necessary to be famous, otherwise how can the soldiers be convinced?
Waiting for Han Jian to appear in front of the world with Xiao Zhan in his arms. Even these soldiers who had a slight suspicion about Han Jian dispelled their previous concerns. It can be said that Han Jian did a very beautiful job in this hand, and even Xiao Zhan thought about it afterwards, he felt that he was too careless and fell into the trap preset by Han Jian.
Xiao Zhan just blindly thought. Any humiliation is the motivation for the soldiers of the Southern Dynasty to fight bravely to kill the enemy, but she also seems to ignore that some of the soldiers of the Southern Dynasty will feel hopeless because of this, and feel that their hard work is worthless. The sacrifice she is suffering now is meaningless.
The car was moving towards the city little by little, and Xiao Zhan had been worried about Han Jian's further aggression on her. But Han Jian was not more rude to Xiao Zhan in the car that was closed to the outside world. But this is precisely one of Han Jian's purposes.
Han Jian hugged Xiao Zhan, who was a woman, and walked into his luan, and lowered the curtain, so that the soldiers could not see the scene inside, so they would naturally speculate about what was going on inside. Xiao Zhan was picked up by Han Jian before, and he didn't even struggle, which means that Xiao Zhan himself also recognized that he was only the monarch of the defeated country, so Han Jian didn't seem to need to worry about the physique of the Southern Dynasties......
Xiao Zhan suddenly stood up and shouted, "I'm going out." ”
The car was still moving, and as soon as she stood up, her body was a little unstable and she almost fell, but Han Jian helped her.
Xiao Zhan broke free and wanted to open the curtain, but Han Jian grabbed her hand. Han Jian said coldly: "The eldest princess didn't resist before, but now she has made a move, which seems to show the world that I am indeed rude here." With the eldest princess's martial arts, I believe that with a little force, the dragon robe on the eldest princess's body can fall to the ground, and at that time, a disheveled woman will walk down from my luan, what do you think the people of the world will think? ”
Xiao Zhan gritted his teeth fiercely, glared at Han Jian angrily and said, "You...... Why so despicable? ”
Han Jian smiled: "Princess, don't forget, this is a transaction. Could it be that the eldest princess forgot so quickly? The eldest princess just waited in it peacefully, and when she arrived at the place, the eldest princess would be able to get double the amount of food, and then there would be a month's grain and grass in Hangzhou, and the princess thought, but it was worth it? ”
Xiao Zhan's face was like earth, and her body trembled even more because of anger.
She had to admit that Han Jian's coercion was too useful. Even if she was reluctant in her heart, she couldn't raise the courage to resist when she thought of getting more food for the soldiers and civilians of Hangzhou.
She is the person who shoulders the royal mission of the Southern Dynasty, and these have nothing to do with her, but thinking of so many people, under her governance, they have encountered the invasion of foreign enemies, and they are about to ruin the country, and this sacrifice she made herself is nothing at all.
Han Jian also completely grasped her mentality, and hitting the snake and hitting seven inches made her have to accept it. Because how much food she can get in exchange for is up to Han Jian alone, if she doesn't know each other, Han Jian can even completely ignore the previous promise to the people of the Southern Dynasties, and not give a grain of grain to Hangzhou, at that time, the people of the world will not think that Han Jian is dishonest, because this is itself a battlefield of deceit, and this is also a strategy used on the battlefield.
Thinking about this, Xiao Zhan closed his eyes and tried not to look at Han Jian, so that his heart could relax. But in such a special place, how can she relax?
She once came to Suzhou, but at that time she was still innocent, but as the eldest princess to Suzhou City to play, ten years have passed, her innocence is no more, the pressure of the dynasty pressed her breathless, she always has to die for the king of Qin and forget to eat, hoping that through her own efforts, the number of soldiers under her command will be more, and more people can recognize her.
And all of this seems to be used by Han Jian.
The car finally stopped in front of a large mansion, which was the Taishou Mansion in Yangzhou.
Han Jian did not take Xiao Zhan to the palace where he lived, but took Xiao Zhan to where she should have been, which was also the political core of Suzhou City.
Outside the palace in Suzhou City, a large number of soldiers and civilians gathered, and they also wanted to know whether the rumors outside that the emperor of the Northern Dynasty had captured the empress of the Southern Dynasty were true.
After the car stopped, Han Jian got out of the car first, and when Han Jian appeared, the residents of the city were shocked, because Han Jian often patrols the defense of the city, and many people in the city have seen Han Jian's true face.
After Han Jian stood still, he helped a woman wearing a crown of the Southern Dynasty to walk down. The woman was very mature and beautiful, but no one knew if she was the empress of the Southern Dynasty.
Just when Xiao Zhan thought that he could freely walk into the Suzhou Taishou Mansion, Han Jian suddenly showed a wicked smile on his face and hugged Xiao Zhan.
Although she had expected this in her heart, Xiao Zhan still closed her eyes in humiliation, she didn't want to see Han Jian, let alone face the people of Suzhou City, which made her feel more embarrassed than being embarrassed in front of the soldiers of the Northern Dynasty.
Han Jian hugged Xiao Zhan and strode into the Suzhou Taishou Mansion.
After more than two months of repairs, the Suzhou Taishou Mansion was basically repaired due to the damage in the siege war, but it has been vacant because Han Jian did not have a place of governance in Suzhou City. Suzhou City is now all garrisons of the Northern Dynasty, and the number of people in the city is not very large, and the military and political transcripts approved by Han Jian are all in his temporary palace, that is, in a large family in Suzhou where he lives.
Inside, Han Jian did not let go of Xiao Zhan directly, but bypassed the main hall and went directly into a wing room in the inner hall. After cleaning up, it already has a bit of a home appearance.
Before arriving at the bed, Han Jian put Xiao Zhan down. (To be continued.) )
