Chapter 158 The recovery of the Xiqin Kingdom
"So that's the case, Princess Linglong is also easy to think about, it's just that this place is not the most difficult, and it will be trickier to come to Southern Xinjiang than here."
"Anyway, it's not the first time I've been to southern Xinjiang, and it's not impossible to meet again."
Wei Chimu has dealt with people in southern Xinjiang a few times, and they can be loyal on the surface and poison you behind the scenes.
Although they are famous for hanging pots to help the world, there is a good saying, water can carry a boat or overturn a boat, if you want to check, what those people do behind their backs is not impossible to find.
Scarlet Yan watched Xiqin Kingdom getting farther and farther away, Linglong's figure stood arrogantly under the city wall, and slowly withdrew her gaze, she did have a lot of things waiting for her to do, especially at such a time, she couldn't stop.
All the way south, Scarlet Smoke saw a lot of delicious fruits, as well as flowers that had never been seen before, but they were in a hurry, and they had no time to stay for a long time, and they spent almost all these days in the car.
Fortunately, when a few people were a little exhausted, they finally arrived at the closest place to southern Xinjiang, but before a few people got off the carriage, they were stopped by red tassel guns when they suddenly appeared.
"Who are you? Any idea what this place is? This is not the place to break into! ”
The guards were a little arrogant, and Scarlet Smoke was already a little irritable, and this person's irritable temperament undoubtedly suppressed her thoughts.
Scarlet said coldly, "That's how you govern your subordinates in Southern Xinjiang?" ”
The guard seemed dissatisfied with the two words of his subordinates, and he said coldly to Scarlet Smoke, "Even if it's a subordinate, it's not your turn." ”
Scarlet Smoke shrugged his shoulders, took out the jade pendant and customs clearance document in his hand, swept it in front of the guard, and said coldly and without any emotion in his eyes.
"I want to see your elders."
This jade pendant is not something that ordinary people can have, the guard is an interesting person, just now he still had a cold face, and when he saw the scarlet smoke, he hurriedly changed his attitude and said.
"Adults, please wait, and the little ones will report immediately."
Scarlet Yan and the others were waiting here, she inexplicably looked at the attitude of the person just now and was a little irritable, and Wei Chimu on the side said comfortingly, "It doesn't matter to the people, what do you do to remember their mistakes." ”
"I just think they're deliberately guarding against us, that's why they're so hesitant about these things."
Yes, what Scarlet Smoke said is actually good, these people don't know them, but Southern Xinjiang is much stricter than in the past, it seems that they have secretly received some information, such as information related to various things in the past.
But fortunately, in less than half a pillar of incense, the figure of the Great Elder of Southern Xinjiang appeared, and Scarlet Yan recognized it at a glance, when she was injured in Southern Xinjiang, he was in charge, and his attitude was not bad, so Scarlet Yan's face was not too bad.
"A few adults are still invited in, they don't understand the reason for your visit, it's our fault, please forgive me."
Scarlet snorted coldly and didn't speak, they were clearly perfunctory, but they didn't want to admit that they were perfunctory.
This elder was originally dissatisfied with him, and at this time, his slackness attitude made Scarlet Yan angry, but she was still measured, as the saying goes, if she doesn't hit a smiling person, how can she not be clear in her heart.
"The elder is gracious." Yu Chimu pretended not to care, but who is the elder, he is used to seeing so many people, and now he doesn't know that Yu Chimu is angry, and no one here can afford to offend.
He knew that the identities of these two people were now coming as envoys from the north, but when he looked at Scarlet Smoke again, he just felt that this woman was a little familiar, but he didn't dare to take a second look, after all, the man next to Scarlet Smoke, the sword in his hand made him tremble.
The elder humbly invited them to the southern Xinjiang, a few people walked all the way over, and the scarlet smoke smelled a medicinal fragrance from a distance, and I didn't feel that I had a little more exploration here, I suffered a loss here last time, and this time the elder should not let go of such a good opportunity.
The elder was quite polite, let people settle a few people's rooms, and prepared a sumptuous meal for Scarlet Smoke and others, Scarlet Smoke had no way to push it away, at this time he was a little helpless, so he could only let the elder arrange it.
It's just that after Scarlet Smoke and they have cleaned up, when they asked someone to invite the elder, the latter was no longer in Southern Xinjiang, Scarlet Smoke frowned, a little displeased, she was not good-tempered at all.
"This elder in southern Xinjiang can't do this because he wants to admit it, right? But aren't these things all promised by them? ”
When Scarlet Yan and the others came over, they brought some people to guard the surroundings of Southern Xinjiang, if there was any movement of the people here, she should be the first to foresee, but at this time, she knew that the elder was unwilling to cooperate.
It seems that he is delaying time, and it is not difficult to think about this, but what is the way for this elder to retreat now, according to reason, southern Xinjiang depends on the people here to survive, if the people here have a lot of complaints about them, their huge southern Xinjiang can be regarded as no longer existing.
"The people here are used to being free, let them obediently stay in the cage, if it doesn't take some effort, it will never be possible to succeed, Yan'er, it doesn't hurt us to wait."
Scarlet Smoke had some bad premonitions, looking at Wei Chimu's expression, he felt that he had other plans, so Scarlet Smoke took the opportunity to ask, "Did you already have other plans?" ”
Wei Chimu had a smile in his eyes, sure enough, it was the person next to him, he thought he could hide it from her, so he had to tell everything frankly at this time.
He looked at the scarlet smoke and said, "It's not any other plan, it's just that southern Xinjiang is not big, they and the people complement each other, what I want to do, it's not difficult, as long as they can't make ends meet, it's fine." ”
"You want to?"
Scarlet Yan suddenly thought of something, if he didn't remember this place in southern Xinjiang, it was for the people to make money for them every day, but now the relationship between the people and these elders is different from the past, and it is not impossible to see these things clearly.
"Cut off their business lifeline, they can't make ends meet, and in the end they can only choose to compromise, their subordinates have already solved these things when we came, eat with peace of mind, they don't need us to go over, they will come to us themselves."
Wei Chimu said yes, Scarlet Yan also knew that he never did useless work, eating and drinking well here, since the elders did not want to see them, Scarlet Yan and the others did their own things in this mansion, as if they were nothing.
The elder sighed, after all, he couldn't understand their thoughts, if he acted rashly at this time, he would ruin the plan, but he was really hostile to the few people in front of him, after all, none of these people could afford to provoke them.
And couldn't get rid of them, when the elder was embarrassed, the elder of Southern Xinjiang originally wanted to struggle again, but on the second day, he arranged the important matters of southern Xinjiang, and a guard appeared, he came to the elder's side, thought of what he had found, and said directly.
"Elder, it's not good, the people who used to cooperate with us are now treacherous, they are unwilling to export our things, and in two days, our silver has not come back at all, have we offended people."
The southern Xinjiang region is small, but there are many people, so the cooperation is a rich pigeon businessman, and now Wei Xian has become the emperor is indeed a thing that makes them feel glorious and glorious, but Wei Xian did not care about southern Xinjiang, and did not have the intention of accepting southern Xinjiang at all, but let the northern country eyeing them.
The elder is a man who has seen strong winds and waves, and when he does not see the results at the last moment, he does not believe that his judgment is wrong.
"Has everyone who has been with us cut off from us?"
The elder frowned, a little puzzled, and the guard said, "Yes, and my brother who was originally in the southern kingdom told me two days ago that it is useless for the emperor of the southern kingdom to turn a blind eye to our people. ”
Finally, they won the gamble in Nanjiang and let Wei Xian take the position, thinking that they could bring changes to Nanjiang, but he was in a hurry to get rid of the original relationship with Nanjiang, and he was really ungrateful, he suddenly considered that the northern country sent someone to come this time.
He has been procrastinating, just afraid that he has made a wrong decision, and he is afraid that the people in the north will not achieve results with the southern Xinjiang in the end, but now it seems that many things are too different from what he imagined.
"What happened to the people sent by the North? Have they talked about making my southern Xinjiang dependent on the north in the past two days? ”
The guards didn't understand the elder's thoughts, but after listening to the palace people's instructions, these envoys had been moving freely in southern Xinjiang because they couldn't see the elders, and they didn't ask about the elders' traces at all.
Thinking of this, the guard couldn't help but drop the black line, speaking of which, he has indeed met a lot of people, but like these messengers, he really has not encountered them, the more they do not follow the routine, the more people can't see their purpose.
"In the past two days, they have been traveling in southern Xinjiang, but it seems that they have not paid attention to the matter of persuading our southern Xinjiang to attach to the northern country, elder, what do you say they want to do?"
The elder looked at the guards with hatred, he understood that they were originally in a passive position in the southern frontier, but the appearance of these envoys disturbed the situation, and speaking of which, it made the elders feel a little bored.
There was indeed no way out in Southern Xinjiang, he discussed with other elders overnight, originally expecting that Southern Xinjiang's income would improve, but he didn't expect that this would be even more difficult, and it would be trouble after all.
"I don't know what they're going to do, but if we continue to stay like this in cooperation with the outside world, the people who want to come to southern Xinjiang will definitely not let us go."
"So what are we going to do now, why don't we cling to the North? Only in this way can we retain our strength, what do you think, Elder? ”
The elder sighed a little helplessly, these things, if they seemed so easy to solve, it would not be like this at this time, he was in a dilemma, but didn't all this have an answer a long time ago?
However, he did not want to attach himself to the North.
