Chapter 129: The Shao Clan

Zhu Houhuang said: "Lord Wang, please get up." ”

Wang Yuanhe got up and said, "The minister happens to have an urgent matter here, and I want to consult His Highness." ”

"Oh, what's the matter?" Zhu Houhuang was a little curious.

Wang Yuanhe said: "This is not the place to speak, Your Highness, please." ”

This is indeed not the place to speak, there are dense soldiers on the left and right. Zhu Houhuang also followed Wang Yuanhe into the big tent of the army in the town.

It is said that it is a big tent of the Chinese army, but it is actually a house made of logs, and there is not even the skin of the logs outside, and it looks like a temporary building. It's just that the place is quite spacious.

Zhu Houhuang sat down on the throne and asked, "Tell me, what is the matter?" ”

Wang Yuanhe said to Zhu Houhuang: "Your Highness, there are people from the south who want to defect to Your Highness." ”

Zhu Houhuang couldn't help frowning and said, "Is this the matter?" ”

It's not that Zhu Houhuang doesn't take a fancy to it, in fact, during this period of time, no matter what the reason, the Han people scattered on Dongyong Island have come to Dayuan in an endless stream. Zhu Houhuang has long been accustomed to such things, so he is not surprised.

"Your Highness, this time is different, this time it is the head of the clan who defected to His Highness, the patriarch of the Shao clan in the south." Wang Yuanhe said solemnly.

"Shao?" Zhu Houhuang looked at Qi Jingtong, but saw Qi Jingtong frowning slightly, obviously he didn't know about this matter, and his impression of Wang Yuanhe couldn't help but be a little worse. Skipping the level to sue, no matter what time it is, is a big taboo.

"How much strength does this Shao clan have?" Zhu Houhuang asked.

Wang Yuanhe said: "The minister has checked this Shao clan, there are thousands of strong men, and in the south of the Qi clan, it can be regarded as a big clan. This time, it was also the elder of his clan who came in person. ”

Zhu Houhuang's eyes glanced at Qi Jingtong, but he saw that his hands were clenched together, and his fingers rattled.

Zhu Houhuang didn't know that Wang Yuanhe had offended Qi Jingtong to death. As soon as Zhu Houhuang heard this, he knew that Wang Yuanhe had been planning for a long time. Hiding from Qi Jingtong alone.

It was Qi Jingtong who came from the north alone, and there was no one to help, and only a dozen or so pro-soldiers around him could be relied on. Therefore, we should be cautious in our work. But it's not that Qi Jingtong didn't have the courage to break. He can't wait to draw a knife and behead Wang Yuanhe now.

Zhu Houhuang secretly said in his heart: "If this Shao clan submits to me, it will be easy to achieve." I spared Wang Yuanhe and asked him to change places as officials. If you can't, you will clean up Wang Yuanhe and give Qi Jingtong a breath. ”

Zhu Houhuang said, "Go and bring the elders of the Shao clan up." ”

After a while, a gray-haired man walked up, stepped forward and saluted and said, "Shao Weng, grass people, meet His Royal Highness King Yong." ”

"Your surname is Shao, but you're Han?" Zhu Houhuang asked.

"The grass people are after the Shaw Clan's Boling Hall." The old man said.

"Bolingtang?" Zhu Houhuang was a little confused about what was going on?

Wang Yuanhe stepped forward and whispered in Zhu Houhuang's ear: "The two major veins of the Shaw Clan are Boling Hall and Anle Hall. ”

Zhu Houhuang nodded slightly, understanding what was going on? He secretly said in his heart: "I don't even know the internal division of the Shaw Clan, and the person in front of me claims to be from Bolingtang, it shouldn't be fake." Suddenly he thought again, "What if it's fake?" ”

"Uncle, please get up." Zhu Houhuang said: "Come on, move a chair for the old man." ”

After a few moments, the guest and the host settled down. Before Zhu Houhuang could speak, Shao Weng had already spoken first, and said: "Your Highness's expansion of Dongyong is the blessing of Dongyong. Although the grass people are relics of the former Song Dynasty, they look forward to the arrival of His Royal Highness, just like the parents of babies. I also ask Your Highness to have mercy on the people outside the territory, and to be forgiving and fulfilling. ”

"Shao Weng said this, Lone is the King of Yong who was sealed by the Ming Dynasty, and the land of Dongyong is all lonely people, how can Lone not accept the gift." Zhu Houhuang said loudly.

Shao Weng heard Zhu Houhuang's words, and knelt down again. Zhu Houhuang hurriedly persuaded him. Shao Wencai said: "Your Highness's grace, the Shao family is deep in the five, but there is only one thing, please ask Your Highness for permission." ”

"What?" Zhu Houhuang asked politely.

"My Shao family has taken root in Dongyong for hundreds of years, and it is ashamed to say that if you enter the barbarians, you will be barbaric, so many years, intermarriage with the surrounding barbarians, plus the family's Chinese veins are cut off, and in two or three generations, I am afraid that my Shao family will not even find a literate person." I have a lot of in-laws in the Shao family, and I also have the intention of coming to join His Highness, but I am afraid that His Highness will come," Speaking of this, Shao Weng paused slightly and stopped talking.

Zhu Houhuang saw it clearly, it was the Shao family's in-laws who couldn't be at ease, and it was clear that the Shao family couldn't be at ease. It's just saying it in the name of in-laws.

Zhu Houhuang smiled faintly and said, "Shao Weng, but it's okay to talk about it. What are the conditions, just say. Lone is not to blame. ”

During this period of time, Zhu Houhuang gradually got used to the self-title of Lone.

Shao Weng said: "The Shao family has a daughter, who is the granddaughter of the old man, who has always been regarded as the pearl of the palm, and I hope to serve His Royal Highness on the pillow table, which is a great honor for my Shao family." ”

Zhu Houhuang couldn't help but feel disgusted in his heart, without him, he felt uncomfortable with the nature of political marriage. But he understands well. It's a good choice, but I can't make up my mind for a while.

Wang Yuanhe said: "Shao Weng, His Royal Highness has not yet married. It's too early to talk about this matter at this moment," Wang Yuanhe said after Shao Weng. After a moment of conversation, he said, "Your Highness." The Queen Mother has just arrived in Dongyong, and it is inevitable that she will be a little lonely, whether to let Shao Weng send her granddaughter to the Queen Mother first to accompany the Queen Mother. ”

Zhu Houhuang wanted to delay it, but Wang Yuanhe's sentence made him not know how to say it. It doesn't matter if he refuses, I'm afraid that the local people who are closely connected with the Shao people will be separated from morality from now on.

"Okay." Zhu Houhuang's face was slightly stiff, and he settled this matter.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, Zhu Houhuang adjusted his mood, sent Shao Weng out, and immediately said with a cold face: "Wang Yuanhe, can you talk nonsense about everything?" ”

Wang Yuanhe knelt on the ground and said, "The minister doesn't know what His Highness said? ”

Zhu Houhuang said: "Do you want to accept the daughter of the Shao family, can you do it on your behalf?" ”

"Your Highness." Wang Yuanhe's voice suddenly rose high, and said: "Your Highness wants to turn Yongguo into Han land, you have to pay attention to the local people, Dongyong is vast, even if Your Highness tries his best to immigrate how many people can be moved, you must not rely on immigration alone, you must turn it into Han." The minister communicates with the local people in the Qi family, Dongyong is not uninhabited, with the size of Dongyong, the local people are above 100,000, there are these 100,000 Dingkou, and His Royal Highness's major events can be one step closer. However, His Royal Highness is in Dongyong, and his authority has been established, but his grace has not been given. With a big tribe like the Big Belly King, it is naturally a resolute attack, but for the small tribes of hundreds and thousands of people scattered in the world, it is necessary to focus on Huairou. Although the Shaw family claims to be a Han person, in the view of the ministers, it has long been a barbarian and barbarian, the natives regard it as their own people, and accept the Shaw daughter, then accept the hearts of the natives, His Royal Highness does not think about Mrs. Xian? ”

Why didn't Zhu Houhuang know Mrs. Xian?

Mrs. Xian was called the Holy Mother of Lingnan, and her family was the leader of South Vietnam for generations, and she married Feng Bao. After three dynasties, the unity of the country was maintained. And the prototype of the Song valve in the Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty should be the Feng family where Mrs. Xian is located.

Such a famous person, how could Zhu Houhuang not know?

If he didn't know the benefits of marriage, he would have rejected it a long time ago. At this moment, Wang Yuan and Zhenzhen had words, and Zhu Houhuang was immediately furious and said: "This is a lonely private matter. ”

Wang Yuanhe did not hesitate to go over and said: "The Son of Heaven has no private affairs, how can the king have private affairs." ”

Zhu Houhuang was speechless for a while, and grabbed the saber. At this moment, he really wanted to stab Wang Yuanhe with a sword.

In fact, Zhu Houhuang was angry, although there was one reason for the marriage, and more importantly, Wang Yuanhe made the decision for him without authorization, this attitude of no one in his eyes, how could Zhu Houhuang bear it.

Only then did Zhu Houhuang feel in his heart the rampant of civil officials and doctors. They did not hesitate to suppress the monarch with an attitude of speaking for the country. And look like a moral model. It really made Zhu Houhuang hate itchy, but Zhu Houhuang didn't dare to do it.

Yes, I don't dare to do it.

Zhu Houhuang was sure that if he killed Wang Yuanhe, none of the civil officials under his command who had been integrated with great difficulty would definitely run away, and even Yang Shen probably wouldn't stay.

Even the emperor can't do anything happy, let alone Zhu Houhuang, a vassal king.
