Volume 1 Chapter 147 Xin to the Qiang Kingdom
Zizhao left in a bad mood, Xing Concubine didn't even have the courage to come out to send it off, and silently shed a burst of tears, and after a while, Huang Nei came to the table with a bowl of bitter medicine, Xing Concubine and reluctantly drank it with tears, and secretly asked herself, when will she be able to have her own child?
Mrs. Yu never thought about it, after the king came back, Queen Lin Xingwu, Mrs. Lin Xingqi, and now she is actually fortunate to be a lowly maid of Concubine Xing, why don't you just be lucky to her, even if you want to send this cheap maid to her, what is the purpose?
With the war king Jiang Xin taking the lead, and the guards accompanying him, Xin and a group of pedestrians, the road was quite smooth, except for a few heavy rains and two gangs of small thieves, the road was smooth.
Xin asked the Yanshi to make an oil-paper umbrella, two hundred guards each have a hand, the front is equipped with bronze biao, the umbrella handle is bitter bamboo with fire roasted through the oil, waterproof and wear-resistant and strong, instead of the heavy bronze sword, greatly reducing the burden of the guards on the road, when not in use, you can carry it on your body, which makes people love to choose their hands.
The two small thieves encountered on the road, most of them didn't make a move, and the thieves were beaten down, Xin Du felt that they were not worth mentioning, maybe the road was too smooth, and the pure shatter was God pretending to give herself some small obstacles, indicating that she was also going to experience the catastrophe, but she was too careless!
Jiang Xin along the way, he had the opportunity to be with Xin Yu, in addition to appreciating the beauties, he also heard a lot of new things, the happiest things, and he was full of happiness.
Xin Ding made several pocket-level bronze ovens, and the small barbecue was directly in the carriage, and he also made a barbecue while walking, which amazed hundreds of people!
When you get to the north, it's colder, and you can also make a hand stove! Along the way, there was no shortage of firewood to make a big fire on the spot, and charcoal was enough!
Jiang Xin looks at the beauties, enjoys the beautiful scenery, eats delicious food, the three joys of life, Jiang Xin feels that this life is worth it!
But there is another person who is the most unhappy, that is, Yin Ping, the deputy envoy who came together, and Mrs. Xin many times on the road: regardless of shame, he lost the face of the big businessman, and he was involved with the enemy king.
Mrs. Xin didn't take this to heart every time, and always said lightly: "Lord Yin is serious, it's just a matter of eating together, if you don't dislike it, come over and eat some!" “
"Hmph, Wechen is not ashamed, ashamed to open his mouth, hundreds of eyes, Wechen doesn't want to be overhauled!"
In the past month, Yin Ping has said this sentence countless times, the worst thing is not him, it is the minions he brought, the people on Mrs. Xin's side eat with relish, less is a little less, and it is also a copy of each person, the smell of ten miles of fragrance, from the front to the back, Yin Ping's minions only swallow saliva, eat dry food, drink cold water, look at Mrs. Xin and the king of war, the Lantern Festival princess is in full swing, it's not that the new lady doesn't give it to them, but the master doesn't eat it, and they don't dare to eat!
On May 13, Jiang Xin took Xin and his people to Qiang County, the capital of Qiang State, more than ten days earlier than the original plan, he was still rubbing on the road, and Mrs. Xin was in many places, but received news that her mother was seriously ill, so she had to speed up her steps back to Qiang County.
In fact, the population of Qiang is very small, only more than 500 troops, more than 2,000 permanent residents, because they are nomads, the capital is also nomadic, Qiang County as the capital of Qiang, it is only in the past 20 years, if it is not for the war king insisting on finding his sister, I am afraid that he would have traveled far away.
However, it was the army of more than 500 people that made the more than 2,000 troops of the Great Shang return again and again in vain, for no other reason, their war horses are good, their weapons are strong, their physique is strong, and they are good at long-distance raids.
But these hard things can be imagined, but the generals of Dashang can't think of it, probably because of the vision.
After coming from the Qiang people, the city gate does not exist, only the big tent and the small tent, the vast grassland all the way, although the wind and sand are a little big, but also a little cold, but Xin still feels quite novel, after all, she has not been to the grassland in her previous life, she has always thought that the Qiang country is going to the northeast Harbin direction, so she prepared a thick cotton coat, in fact, he thought wrong, no, look at this is going in the direction of Xinjiang!
Now the seeds she brought are estimated to be useless, I knew that they would be placed in the Qiang tribe, there is still some land there, and it is easy to plant anything, it seems that this road will not work with seeds and cultivation technology as a negotiation condition, and before entering the palace, my heart began to feel melancholy, it seems that this war of words is not as easy to fight as imagined, no wonder all the ministers do not come.
The Qiang State is not grand to receive the envoys of the Great Commerce, but considering that Xin and they are not used to living in tents, the heaven and earth have made mud houses, from the ceiling to the wall to the ground are all leather, although the house is short, it is very warm to live in, and it is not as cold as imagined.
That night, the king of war rode into the palace, and Xin did not go out, and the princess of Lantern Festival had not yet been called, so she lived with Xin temporarily.
Early the next morning, Jiang Xin came to pick up Xin and Lantern Xiao into the palace, it was Jiang Xin who sought the first decision of the Qiang King Qiang War, and asked Xin to come to see the queen Zhu Ji.
Queen Qiang has been sick for a long time, and they only have shamans, no doctors, and the Central Plains herbs are difficult to find, and the Central Plains doctors are difficult to invite, leading to the list of texts for half a year, and still no one came to consult, yes, last night the King of Qiang heard that the new envoy would see a doctor, and he didn't ask a word, and agreed directly, if it wasn't for that, the messenger ran all the way and needed to rest, so he couldn't wait to invite him over last night!
The big tent of the Qiang king's court, at a glance, countless small tents around protect a big tent, the big tent also floats above the totem sheep's horn of the American Dynasty, the red carpet stretches for dozens, the width of five or six meters, it is very atmospheric, all are made of wool dyeing, take off the riding boots, walk barefoot on it, very soft, listen to Qiang Xin introduced, there is a stone road below, which is specially paved to meet the envoys of the big business.
In the royal tent, it is clear at a glance. On several wooden benches, people sat on the ground in two rows, and when they saw Jiang Xin with the arrival of the envoys of the great merchants, they all stood up to greet them, with one hand in front of them, and bowed deeply, similar to the appearance of the current gentlemen saluting and dancing.
King Qiang said in stiff Chinese: "Welcome the beautiful envoy of the Great Shang Dynasty to visit"
Xin returned the salute and said: "It is a pleasure to come to your country, may our two countries always achieve peace, and wish the Heavenly Khan a long life with the sky!" “
"With the same life as the sky, the blessing of the messenger is very special, Ben Khan likes it, but Ben Khan's concubine is critically ill, I heard that Xin Envoy will know medical skills, and please Xin Envoy can save the life of Ben Khan's concubine, Ben Khan is willing not to deal with Dashang in his lifetime, in exchange for the life of the concubine, what does Xin Envoy think?" King Qiang is already in a hurry, and he shows weakness for the sake of his lover!
