Lu Dongzan waved his hand. Immediately, someone came out of the crowd of onlookers and handed the document in his hand to Ma Zhou, Ma Zhou took it, glanced at the paperwork, and then glanced at Lu Dongzan and bowed down and said: "Please go to the Great Prime Minister's Post House, the official is slow, please don't blame the Great Minister." ”

Lu Dongzan sat on the step carried by the four strong Tibetan men with a smile, returned to his tent, and turned a deaf ear to Ma Zhou's invitation to invite him to the post house.

Ma Zhou didn't force it, there was no post house for the envoys to rest under the Yin Mountain, just now it was just a polite gesture, put the document into his arms, and then he had to go to Zhang Baoxiang, the governor of Daizhou, this kind of thing should not be able to interfere with a small official like himself, just now he was just trying to maintain the prestige of the Tang Dynasty.

Zhang Baoxiang is in an extremely happy mood today, the meekness of the old Turkic department makes him happy from the bottom of his heart, Yun Du is also very happy, just now he accepted the praise of the people who are full of sheds, he knows the beauty of adults at a young age, he is pure-hearted, and he will definitely be a good woman when he grows up, so she is a little shy, burying her head in her mother's arms and being coquettish, and everyone laughs again.

Ma Zhou put Lu Dongzan's documents on Zhang Baoxiang's case and said: "Zhang Du, the Tubo people still came, but they didn't go to Jiannan and Songzhou, and came down directly from Yinshan. ”

Zhang Baoxiang didn't even look at the documents, so he ordered Changshi to transfer the documents to Xiangjun, this is not his business, if it wasn't for Ma Zhou to mention, he wouldn't want to know at all. Back then, he had an extra mouth, which almost made him irreversible, so now he only stares at one acre and three points of land in Daizhou, and he doesn't want to ask about the rest.

Ma Zhou also knew that he had misreported the military situation back then, so he no longer mentioned the Tibetan minister, verified his identity, and greeted the envoy as Hou Gong's errand, and it was not appropriate to involve Zhang Baoxiang.

That day, he sat on a chair and kept introducing Zhang Baoxiang to the tribal leaders who came from the grassland. Each time one was introduced, Yun Jiu showed their gift slip to Zhang Baoxiang, and after Changshi verified the gift list, the account office would provide the leader with a tribute document, one hundred and sixty-four tribes last year, and this year. There are only one hundred and fifty-five families left, and nine tribes have disappeared, and without the completion of the tribute papers, the tribes have no way to gain a foothold on the grassland, and the army will encircle and suppress these rebels, and other great clans will also attack them, just like a vulture staring at carrion, many times, overnight. A tribe will be divided up cleanly.

After dealing with these things, Yun Jiu clapped his hands, and immediately there were servants of the Yun family holding ten purple lambskins, as well as bamboo chips representing the number of cattle and sheep, seeing that Zhang Baoxiang was very puzzled, he said: "Don't be surprised, this is paid by the Yun family on behalf of the Yudu clan, and this clan has now been sold into slavery." The Yudu clan will no longer exist next year. ”

Wuli Sima, who never opened his mouth like a clay man, suddenly asked: "There are only 617 women left in the Yudu clan, and these people cannot provide any help to your mansion. Why did Yunfu take it in? Instead of letting them be swallowed up by the steppe? ”

That sunset looked at this strange person, and he saved people by mistake? I want to open my mouth to reprimand this unreasonable guy, but I think of the words that the eunuch taught me, watch more, listen more, and talk less. I endured it alive, planning to take a look first.

Yun Jiu bowed down and replied: "Sima doesn't know, when the Yun family's ranch started, it was all up to my wife to take in those young people who no one wanted, and now. The young people have grown up, and when it is time to get married, the entire Yudu clan is young and strong and dies, which is a huge burden for others, but for the Yun family ranch, it is a good opportunity to marry those women to the herdsmen at home, so that there are men and women, and the pasture with a balanced number of men and women will prosper. ”

Wuli Sima is very authoritative in the army, and generally does not speak, once he speaks, even the main general like Zhang Baoxiang must not be ignored, and must be explained clearly, otherwise a catastrophe will come immediately.

After listening to Yun Jiu's explanation, Wuli Sima thought for a while and said: "People can take it away, but the ranch can't, the pasture of the Yudu clan needs to be returned to the public, and the Yun family can't get involved." After speaking, he became a clay sculpture of the Bodhisattva.

That day and twilight were furious, the reason why she took in most of the Yudu clan was for the sake of the fertile pastures in the upper reaches of the river, and now the pastures were lost with a word, how could she swallow this breath. She didn't know what kind of existence Wuli Sima was. When he opened his mouth, he said: "This can't be done, the Yun family has taken in people, so they have to take it over with the pasture, if there is no pasture, what will they use to feed those people?" ”

"That's your Yun family's business, it has nothing to do with the official, the official said, people can take it away, but the ranch can't, it must be redivided." Wuli Sima glanced at the sunset with interest, and this was the first time that his words had been questioned.

Without waiting for the twilight to speak again, Zhang Baoxiang said with a smile: "What Sima said is that the reason why the imperial court divides the grassland into scattered pieces is that it does not want to see a single family, Mrs. Dui, this matter is like this, it is a matter of national policy, Sima allowed the Yun family to collect the herdsmen of the Yudu clan, which is already an open side, and this matter should not be mentioned again." ”

Yun Jiu also smiled and said: "Yes, yes, today there are grassland songs and dances, ronin tunes, and the chef of the Yun family has also prepared some meals, I will go to watch the songs and dances together, and taste the food of the Yun family by the way, you know, everyone, the food of the Yun family is famous in Datang, you must taste it." ”

Zhang Baoxiang laughed out loud and said to Wuli Sima and Changshi: "It doesn't matter if you watch the song and dance, it's just that the grassland herdsmen dance in circles. ”

Wuli Sima still had the same dead face, and arched his hand and said: "The lower officials are used to shabby, it is enough to have a bowl of noodles to eat, and I am afraid that I can't afford to enjoy the luxury of the rich and noble." ”

Zhang Baoxiang and Yun Jiu laughed together, stretched out their thumbs at Wuli Sima, and seeing the confusion on his face, Zhang Baoxiang said again: "It is worthy of Wuli Sima, in a word, the Yun family is a rich and noble family, but his family's food has never been a luxurious banquet, plain, ordinary home-cooked meals, after the hands of the Yun family, it can be turned into magic."

Sima Kezhi knew that the governor of Bendu and Yunhou were on errands under Wei Gong, and the army fought against Jieli in the season of freezing to death, and the one who suffered was guilty, one day the weather was cold, and he was hungry in his stomach, Meng Yunhou invited him to go to his tent to warm up, an iron pot, a dough, a handful of green garlic planted in a flower pot, plus chili vinegar, and said that he would make a delicious meal to treat my Lao Zhang, Yunhou pulled the dough into an inch-wide noodle, added green garlic, chili, and splashed vegetable oil. “

Speaking of the military past, Wuli Sima's face suddenly had a little smile, they are all from the army, they like to listen to these interesting things in the army, and when they saw what Zhang Baoxiang said, they also smiled and said: "Since this is the case, today I will see the ability of Yunfu to turn decay into magic." ”

Yun Jiu, who was dazzled and smiling, immediately invited Zhang Baoxiang and Wuli Sima to go outside, saying that the Yun family's cook was ready, and he would eat noodles today.

That day, the eyes of the twilight were about to be angry, Zhang Baoxiang didn't help himself, but Yun Jiu, a dog minion, didn't help himself, and he didn't look at himself when he left, he really had no discipline.

The eunuch didn't know where to get out, hugged Yun Dui in her arms, and nodded hatefully on the forehead of the sun and said: "I have a beautiful face, from the inside to the outside is a straw bag, what kind of person is Wuli Sima, I have told you three times, if Wuli Sima does not squeak today, then do whatever you want, as long as Wuli Sima speaks, shut up immediately, don't say it's you, it's Hou Ye here, Wuli Sima said so, Hou Ye will definitely not object."

Fortunately, Zhang Dudu spoke for you, Yun Jiu was also clever, and covered up this matter, since Wuli Sima was willing to go to dinner, it means that he didn't go to his heart, otherwise you will be in a big disaster, what is the crime of co-opting the Turkic tribes, you don't know, Hou Ye will eat and hang up when the time comes. “

"I just want that grassland, who rarely collects the tribe, one more is better than one more sheep, and the dowry of the girl will be more generous in the future, and the husband's ability is so great, so he will not be afraid of a six-grade Xiao Sima."

The eunuch saw that day and twilight, and recited Amitabha Buddha in her mouth, and said with a bitter face: "What kind of sin did the old woman make back then, she just stuffed you into the bed of the Hou Ye, now it's okay, it's really unlucky to marry your Hou Ye, the son can't give birth, give birth to a daughter, but the Hou Ye treats the girl as a baby, and treats you as a baby, the concubine is so arrogant that she can yell at Wuli Sima, you think the Hou Ye is not unlucky enough, right?" “

"What then? I really want the pasture, and now I have more than 600 people in vain, but the pasture does not belong to our family, what should I do? "That day, when I heard what the eunuch said, I lowered my head and didn't dare to keep my mouth shut, so I had to talk about the pasture.

"That's right, Hou Ye is the smartest person in the world, and marrying a stupid wife is also a match, your eyes are just staring at the grassland, and you don't hear the voiceover of Wuli Sima's words? The grassland must be returned to the public, this is an iron law, no one can violate it, the grassland belongs to the public, Sima didn't say that the grass also belongs to the public, right? Who can herd sheep on it? It's not our family yet.

Sima is in charge of the law, but he doesn't care about the distribution of grassland, as long as he asks Hou Gong not to allocate this grassland, isn't it over, have you grazed on the public's grassland less over the years? You raised so many cattle and sheep, all of them were grazing on the public pasture, and all your own pasture was cut into hay and stored by you, who has the ability? The Chebi family's pasture is also nearby, when did you see their family do this? This is Hou Ye's ability. “

Hearing that the sheep could be herded there, the sunset immediately became happy and took the eunuch's hand and said, "I will listen to you in the future, and I will never talk nonsense again." “

The eunuch looked at the girl who was already asleep, and said pityingly: "No wonder the Hou Ye will leave his daughter to you, he is just afraid that you, a stupid woman, will suffer, and deliberately left her daughter on the grassland, even if those fierce generals ignore the identity of your concubine, how can they give the eldest daughter of the Yun family a little face, in order to take care of you, they have separated themselves from each other, it is really pitiful to think about it."
