Looking at the smiling appearance of the county lord of Yujie, Wen Jin's heart was very entangled, Qian Jun did not send news that he had moved the queen mother, so who is this object of marriage?

Wen Jin is the most unacceptable, first, to enter the palace as a concubine, second, to fill the house for which old man, third, to marry a close relative of the clan who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, although he has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life, but his fate is not up to him, fourth, ......

At this time, Wen Jin realized that the range of choices she could choose was really narrow, and there were so many types that she didn't want to marry!

It's a pity that I can't help myself!

Besides, Qian Jun found an excuse to ask the emperor for leave, and brought a group of people to go straight down, carefully bypassing Liu Guangzhong's sphere of influence, and came to the place where Jurong and Miao Jiang meet, so that his subordinates brought a worship post and went to deliver a letter, he wanted to meet King Miao.

Since Qian Wenjin is the granddaughter of King Miao, ask him, don't you know if it is Xiao Yi's daughter? Then, Qian Jun also wanted to persuade King Miao that for the sake of Wen Jin, he would be called a vassal domain.

Of course, he still has the worst plan, that is, King Miao resolutely refuses to be a vassal domain, he simply sends Wen Jin back secretly, anyway, the emperor also wants to compete for Wen Jin, and his father refuses to fulfill himself, he might as well hide in these 100,000 mountains with Wen Jin and live a free life.

Three days later, King Miao received a post from Qian Jun requesting a visit, and he held it in his hand and trembled: "Mr. Shen, please." ”

It turned out that Shen Mingxi really arrived here, but unfortunately he didn't ask the emperor in advance, and now King Miao is the vassal, and there is no holy decree to come out.

"What's going on? Don't bother the two masters, why did your emperor send another person? ”

Shen Mingxi took the post and looked at it, crying and laughing: "Your Majesty King Qiyu, this Shen Jun is the son of Prince Ren, the nephew of the contemptible person, and what I said, the man who loves Ling's granddaughter, since he is here, you might as well see it, if you like it, you can decide whether to marry me as a family, whether it is in response to my proposal to call the vassal, I don't know what Your Majesty thinks?" ”

"His Majesty King Miao will not only lose nothing to lose by claiming to Jurong, but also in exchange for the benefits of free trade with Jurong, your tea, salt, and herbs have a market, and you can also buy the food you need from Jurong, isn't it a good thing to count them in one fell swoop?"

"What you say is good, but how can I be sure that you Han people will not go back on your word and take the opportunity to invade the beautiful homeland of my Miao people?"

"Your Majesty King Miao, the contemptible people have said again and again that Miao Xinjiang is hot and full of miasma, and the Han people are not used to life here at all, besides, the land here is vast and sparsely populated, and crops cannot be grown, and we are not very good at growing tea, so it is useless to ask for your land."

"Hmph, you sent troops to occupy Miao Jiang, forced us to be cattle and horses, provided you with tea, plundered our hard-earned salt in exchange for wealth, and robbed us of Miao knives, silver ornaments, and ......"

"My Jurong Dynasty, with the four seas, Your Majesty's wealth is piled up in mountains and cliffs, and it has not yet been ......, hehe, besides, if you call the dynasty a vassal, between the two countries, there is no need to Chen Tens of thousands of soldiers, eyeing the tiger, my Emperor His Majesty will only send a few soldiers to protect the peace of the people in the city, and the transaction will be fair, not only can make the two countries mutually beneficial, beneficial to the people of the frontier, and beneficial to the people in Jurong's country, and do not have to pay taxes to feed so many troops, so that their children can return to their hometowns as soon as possible and live in peace. It's still the sad lament of the people in the spring boudoir dream? Naturally, the fewer such tragedies, the better. ”

King Miao has listened to Shen Mingxi's words a lot, but every time he listens to it, he feels different, when he heard that his daughter still has flesh and blood in Jurong, he can't wait to see each other, but if the two countries don't have friendly exchanges, this idea will never be realized.

At first, he was reluctant to be a vassal, who is comfortable in being the king of the mountain, but he kneels down in front of others and is a minister? But Miaojiang has many mountains and mountains, and there is a shortage of food, so they can't do without Jurong, but Jurong has them or not, and their lives are not very affected, they don't have the green tea and black tea produced by Miaojiang, as well as the green tea produced by themselves.

King Miao was gradually persuaded by Shen Mingxi, and had already discussed with his three sons, and was ready to send his third son to the Jurong Dynasty for Hajj and ask for a seal.

King Miao sent envoys to greet him, which made Qian Jun feel reassured, and when he saw Shen Mingxi, he realized that his uncle had already done the preparatory work, and he was here to pick fruits, so he was a little embarrassed.

King Miao saw that his grandson-in-law was extraordinary, and he talked about something, and his son quietly revealed that his martial arts were also outstanding, and he had already agreed to three points in his heart.

But Miao Jiang also has a custom, that is, if a woman is unwilling to live with a man, she can return to her parents' house at any time, and from then on, men and women will marry, each with their own convenience, King Miao asked Qian Jun to agree to this request, and Qian Jun's face changed in shock: "How does this make, that, then the rest of my life, don't I live alone, lonely?" ”

"If you're afraid of that, be nice to my granddaughter, or else, huh!" King Miao was very proud, but no matter how hard Qian Jun begged, he did not give in.

"I'll be good to her!"

"And what are you afraid of?"

"I'm old, Jin'er is still young and beautiful, don't you look at me unpleasantly?"

"you stinky boy, do you think my granddaughter is the kind of woman who is watery poplar?"

"But Your Majesty King Miao, it's not that Jin'er is bad, it's just that she's too beautiful, I'm afraid, someone knows about this contract and calculates me."

King Miao asked Shen Jun to agree verbally, he had to sign a written agreement, and kept saying that the Han people were cunning and treacherous, and had no integrity, Qian Jun was helpless and agreed to sign the contract, but on this day, King Miao took out the agreement, and Qian Jun jumped up when he saw it: "This is not good, you can't let your warriors be raised in my house now, ready to replace ......me at any time."

King Miao threatened and lured: "Our warriors will never be disrespectful to you, if you are good with my granddaughter, he is your loyal guard, only when you are sorry for my granddaughter, he will take my granddaughter back to Miao Jiang and replace you!" ”

"No, it's absolutely not going to work!"

King Miao explained again and again, and when he saw that Qian Jun refused to give in, he became angry: "If you don't agree, my granddaughter won't marry you, I will take her back to Miao Jiang and pick the bravest warrior to be her husband." ”

"Your Majesty King Miao, this is too difficult for a strong man, I haven't married Jin'er yet, you have found someone who is going to replace me, this, how can I meet people, besides, Jin'er is so beautiful, what if your warrior ......"

The two were arguing, when suddenly someone ran in from outside, and a crisp voice shouted, "Grandfather—"

Qian Jun turned his head and was stunned.

As soon as King Miao saw him like this, he was angry, picked up the waist knife from the side of the seat, and was about to unsheath it with a click. In a blink of an eye, I saw Shen Mingxi also looking at his granddaughter blankly, and he was even more angry: "Han dog, I didn't expect that you two are villains with a bad mouth——"

Shen Mingxi was still in a daze, but Qian Jun reacted, pulled his uncle away, and shouted to King Miao anxiously: "Stop!" Listen to me! ”

King Miao held the knife and raised his hands murderously: "If there is a fart, release it quickly!" ”

"I thought it was Jin'er who came, and I was shocked, they were too similar."

"Oh? Does my granddaughter look like Yuhe? King Miao couldn't help but be curious, but the knife in his hand was still held high.

"It's too similar, it's just a little whiter than her!" Shen Jun told the truth.

"Who? Who is whiter than me? The woman who came in was reluctant, she reached out and shook it, and pulled a whip off her waist, Shen Jun hurriedly shouted: "Wait, you two are relatives." Seeing that this was not very convincing, he added: "The sun in the south is too powerful, if you go to the capital, you can be sure that after a month, the two of you will be as white." ”

King Miao put the knife into the scabbard inlaid with gems, and the woman who came in also put down the whip, but still played with it in her hand, and Qian Jun breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Shangjing, can you have our Miao Jiang?" The girl blinked her bright eyes and asked curiously, Qian Jun saw that she was different from Wen Jin, she was slightly shorter, her figure was more exquisite, and she was more straightforward, so she seemed more innocent and lively than Wen Jin, but she did not have Wen Jin's gentleness and elegance.

"Yuhe, come here!" Miao Wang sat down and patted the small bamboo couch beside him, which was covered with exquisite brocade cushions.

Shen Mingxi also reacted, and replied instead of Qian Jun: "Each has its own good, Miaojiang has beautiful mountains and clear waters, abundant products, and can be used in paintings everywhere, Shangjing Zhong Lingyu is beautiful, outstanding people and spirits, Wubu is rich, and heaven and earth are ......."

"Ahem, cough," Qian Jun interrupted Shen Mingxi's words.

Yuhe said unconvinced: "So, your Shangjing is better than our Miao Jiang?" ”

"I can't say that, Miaojiang has better scenery than Shangjing, and Shangjing has more things and people than Miaojiang." Qian Jun stubble.

"What do you have there?"

Qian Jun thought for a while: "There is almost everything, Shangjing is the center of Jurong, where there are hundreds of thousands of people, and the traders naturally transport everything there, so there are many things and people." ”

"Oh! Hundreds of thousands, how many? ”

Qian Jun thought for a while: "Hundreds of thousands of people, at least they can stand on the mountain of several palaces built by His Majesty King Miao. ”

"So many people? Then you don't squeeze around every day, and you can't walk? ”

"The capital is very big, ride a tall horse, run a lap, it takes a whole day."

"So big?" Yuhe blinked and stopped talking, Qian Jun discovered the difference between her and Wen Jin again, Wen Jin would never blink like this. Anyway, now that the two women are together, he will never admit his mistake.

Since this day, Yuhe has wanted to go to Shangjing of the Han people to take a look, and Shen Mingxi quickly gained insight into her thoughts, so he helped persuade King Miao through Yuhe, the third son of her father, King Miao.

Miao Wang is rough and arrogant on the surface, but in fact, he has a lot of eyes, he deliberately asked Qian Jun to sign the agreement, in order to delay the date, to observe whether Qian Jun is reliable, the courtyard where Shen Mingxi lives, most of them are young guys as servants, Qian Jun's side, but they are all beautiful girls, although they are not as good as Yuhe and Wen Jin, but they have the courage and enthusiasm of Miao Jiang's sisters, Qian Jun can be a groom every night as long as he pretends to refuse.

With such a man, how could he rest assured that he would marry his granddaughter?

Fortunately, Qian Jun actually regarded those beauties as nothing, and threw himself into his arms openly, and he also lost his temper, and Lao Miao Wang was sure that his granddaughter's vision was not ordinarily good, so he was relieved to let his son take the minister who sent the envoy and followed Shen Mingxi and Qian Jun on the road.

On the third day, Meidun's wife hurriedly ran to King Miao and asked to find Yuhe.

This bold girl secretly followed the envoy's carriage away, which was all to blame for Shen Mingxi, who told Yuhe about all the good things about going to Beijing one day, which made the little girl really unable to sit still.

Although Maidun promised to take his daughter to Beijing to play, he was going to take his family with him next time he went to the capital, this time, I don't know what Emperor Jurong did to him, where did Maidun dare to be reckless?

When the group entered the Jurong realm, Mei Dun found her daughter, who was pretending to be a guard and had been following Shen Mingxi's carriage.

But Shen Mingxi bit his mouth and said that he didn't see it, and Mei Dun had no choice, he loved Yuhe very much, and he couldn't stand his daughter's tears, and in the end, he asked for an extra carriage from the post station, bought a few maids, and let Yuhe follow him like this.

As soon as Shen Mingxi arrived at the Jurong realm, he sent a message to the emperor through the post station, reporting in detail the conditions he had reached with King Miao, and explaining that their group was already on the way, and they would arrive in the capital when summer came.

Emperor Yongchang and the ministers of the cabinet discussed it, and they all thought that King Miao took the initiative to call the domain a great thing, Jurong's *** has no salt, and it has to be transported thousands of miles from the south of the Yangtze River, and the result is that the imperial court does not pump a penny of salt tax, and when it arrives at the local area, the cost of a pound of salt is more than ten catties of rice, not counting the merchants to make a profit, and the people can hardly afford it, if it is transported from Miao Jiang, it can be cheaper by six or seven percent, although the salt tax is taken by King Miao, but King Miao also has to buy grain from Jurong, Moreover, the tea produced in Miaojiang is not what the people here like to drink, almost all of them are transported to the nomads in western Xinjiang and northern Xinjiang through Jurong, Jurong does not have to spend a penny, and can also make profits from it, and at the same time, it can also take advantage of those nomads.

It's a lot to kill.

Emperor Yongchang asked the Ministry of Rites to formulate the etiquette and arrangements for receiving the envoys sent by King Miao according to the precedent.

Although Shen Mingxi's excerpt did not indicate that Wen Jin was the granddaughter of King Miao, Emperor Yongchang already knew the news.

That's because Xiao Yi has gone through hardships and dangers, and with a few scouts, he has found his son.

Xiao Yi's ability is not covered, after all, he once commanded an army of 100,000 people, confronted the Jurong army, and protected the Liang Dynasty in a safe corner, if it wasn't for the self-destruction of the Great Wall over there, now this small country, maybe it still exists, if Xiao Yi was not persecuted, he had no choice but to choose to surrender, didn't he know that the generals were often very poor? Not to mention the generals, even the founding heroes, there is a danger that the birds are hiding their bows and the cunning rabbits are dead and the lackeys are cooking, not to mention him?

Think about it, the general who commands the army, at this moment, uses a little trick to find his son, which can be regarded as overkill and sad.

Xiao Yi searched for two days, and found that it was not a solution, so he immediately sent his people to several nearby county seats, trying to find a way to find the master book, catch the head, give some silver to set up, and ask if there was a rich man surnamed Fan in the local area, known as Fan Yuanwai, and found it at once.

got the specific address, Xiao Yi took people straight to the destination, and then, they dressed up in disguise, and began to set the news from the mouths of nearby residents, confirming that Fan Yuanwai's eldest son was born in the outer room, so this outer room was able to enter the door and became the second grandmother, and Fan Yuanwai immediately got two sons in another year, both of whom were born to concubines, but the three sons are all smart and handsome, and now, the eldest son has taken the Xiucai fame, and the two younger sons have also been enlightened, and the three brothers are all studying in the county academy, and Fan Yuanwai often lives in other industries in the county. He only came back once a month or two, and now, he is not at home.

Xiao Yi took people back to Shahu County, he pretended to be a businessman, handed over a post and asked to see Fan Yuanwai.

Fan Yuanwai is now in his sixties, but his son is still young, and he has to take care of the family business, and his youngest daughter and son-in-law live at home.

Someone asked to see and wanted to sell the raw silk produced by Fan Yuanwai Mulberry Garden, which was a large part of the Fan family's income, and Fan Yuanwai had no reason not to agree.

Xiao Yi doesn't look like a businessman at all, no matter how he hides it, Fan Yuanwai can still see at a glance that this person is extraordinary.

Fan Yuanwai has also been mixed in officialdom for a few years, and this vision is also poisonous.

"Mr. Xiao doesn't look like a businessman, where did he go to high school before?" Fan Yuanwai's first reaction was that this person was the same as himself, and he used to be an official.

"Hehe, in the capital, any errand."

"Hehe, look up for a long time!" Fan Yuanwai had heard of Xiao Yi's name, but this Xiao Yi, he thought it was not Xiao Yi.

"Each other, each other!"

"I don't know where Mr. Xiao gave him a cheap land."

"Traveling all over the world, I heard the name of Mr., so I came to visit."

Fan Yuanwai was very excited, and thought that he had done good deeds and accumulated virtue and won a good reputation.

On the one hand, Fan Yuanwai thought that it was the purchased children who were rich and rich, and he also had two sons, on the other hand, he also thought that he had accumulated yin virtue and God's mercy and gave him two sons. In his fifties, he had two sons, in a square area, and had a great influence, and Fan Yuanwai now pays attention to doing good deeds, repairing bridges, paving roads, giving porridge, giving medicine, and assisting the weak, and is known as Fan Dashan.

Fan Yuanwai said humbly: "Mr. Xiao has won the award, some small things, not enough to worry about." ”

Xiao Yi said very seriously: "How can it be a little thing? Saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, if it weren't for Fan Yuan's help, I'm afraid that the child's life would have been suspended! ”

Fan Yuanwai's face changed suddenly: "Why do you say this?" ”

"Outside of Fan Yuan, the Ming people don't say secret words, so that the eldest son is the son of Xiao Yi who has been lost for more than ten years!" When Xiao Yi said this, he couldn't control the sadness in his voice, he had to take a deep breath before continuing, "Xiao went to the academy yesterday to see the dog, and Xiao is at least five points similar, you already have two sons outside the fan, please raise your noble hand and return the dog to Xiao, Xiao is very grateful!" With that, Xiao Yi bowed deeply.
