Chapter Seventy-Three: Hard and Soft

Jiang Wei didn't dare to show himself too much, but occasionally glanced up at Cao Aya.

I saw Cao Aya dressed in luxurious clothes, so beautiful that she was captivating the country and the city, and a cold face was full of nobility and dignity, which can be described as the country's natural fragrance.

Jiang Wei slandered in his heart: "It is worthy of being the princess of Wei Guozheng'er, that is, she has an aura, compared with Yinmei, a princess who picks up for nothing, this grace and luxury, and this temperament and natural achievements are different." ”

Jiang Wei couldn't help but glance at Cao Aya's chest, and his heart suddenly seemed to be poured with a basin of cold water:

"Hey, is it because this dress doesn't fit? How is it so flat? You can fly a plane! It's a pity, it's a pity, it's still my princess Guanghan! ”

Immediately, Jiang Wei swept to the woman beside Cao Aya, and Jiang Wei was shocked: "Isn't this the long-legged young lady who was in my house last night?" Why did she follow behind Cao Aya? Well, this girl's figure is perfect, tall, curvy, absolutely Victoria's Secret! ”

When Jiang Wei was quietly hiding behind the King of Midang, silently commenting on the two beauties at the banquet in his heart, Cao Aya raised his glass and spoke.

With a dignified face, she held her head high, raised her glass and looked around at the guests present:

"Leaders of Qianghu, this palace is entrusted by the Son of Heaven of Great Wei to patrol Yongliang on behalf of the Son of Heaven, and I am very happy to see all the guests today. Your Majesty has always cared about the people of the Great Wei Qiang Beard, and often said to the palace that the Qiang Hu Duo Jian'er has made great contributions to the Great Wei River, and now, the palace will present your Majesty with a cup to the leaders! ”

Cao Aya raised her glass, and the king of Midang under the table hurriedly followed and raised his glass, and said to Cao Aya:

"Your Majesty is mighty, and regards my Qianghu children as a family, this friendship can be seen in the sky, and Yongliang Qianghu is all grateful!"

So Guo Huai took the opportunity to add:

"Everyone is my Dawei people, come and come, everyone drinks this cup together, and salutes Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Everyone stood up and toasted together to toast Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Jiang Wei was not qualified to raise a glass, so he could only kneel behind the King of Midang, ready to refill the wine at any time.

Then Guo Huai clapped his palms, and a team of maids came to the stage with delicious food.

Jiang Wei saw that what was placed in front of the king was a plate of roast mutton, a plate of lamb chops and some fruits.

He hurriedly stepped forward to cut lamb chops for the king of Midang.

In the middle of nowhere, another group of dancers surged into the hall, dancing in the hall.

The graceful dancing of the dancers aroused the excitement of everyone, and they were so happy to judge the dancers one by one.

After the dance, Guo Huai clapped his hands again.

The dancers retreated in amusement, and Guo Huai said to the king of Midang: "King Midang, do you know the situation outside of Yongzhou in my Great Wei?" “

The king was a little puzzled, and he couldn't figure out why Guo Huai asked him this question, so he shook his head and said: "This king has never left Yongzhou, so naturally he doesn't know anything. ”

Guo Huai smiled:

"Hahahaha, the king of the fan is really a sincere person, then General Ben will talk about it for you."

Guo Huai picked up his wine glass and walked out of his seat, and said to the king of fans:

"My Great Wei starts from the Yellow Sand of the Western Regions in the west, to the East China Sea in the east, to the extremely cold Liaodong in the north, and to Yangzhou in Jingzhou in the south, all of which are the land of my Great Wei.

The king knew that this was Guo Huai giving himself a horse, so he squeezed the wine glass tightly and said:

"My Great Wei country is prosperous, and we and the Qianghu people are also honored!"

"Not bad! All my people of Dawei are honored, when today's son, upright youth, ambitious! Elect loyalty, leniency, favors, and provincial service, and win the hearts of the people, and the world will be unified in the Great Wei, which is the trend of heaven! ”

The king felt that his brain was a little insufficient to listen to this passage, and he didn't understand it much, but at least the world belonged to Dawei himself, so he hurriedly responded:

"Great Wei will dominate the world, this is good, very good!"

Guo Huai saw that the foreshadowing was almost done, so he went straight to the point and asked: "General Ben received a secret report, saying that the king is quite dissatisfied with my Great Wei and intends to raise troops to cause chaos, but is there such a thing?" ”

The king of the bean was suddenly startled, beads of sweat rolled down the size of beans, and in a panic, the wine glass in his hand "dang" slid to the ground.

Seeing this, Guo Huai suddenly showed a flash of light in his eyes, faintly with a bit of murderous aura.

Jiang Wei hurriedly reached out and picked up the wine glass, shook his head lightly towards the King of Mischief, and signaled the King of Misty not to panic, the King of Misty Dang understood, and quickly said with a smile:

"I'm sorry, I've lost my temper! What General Guo said is absolutely nothing, there is absolutely no such thing! I am obsessed with being loyal to the Great Wei, Zhuge Liang has sent troops to participate in the war against Shu on several Northern Expeditions, and General Guo knows about this! ”

Guo Huai saw that the Midang King was so panicked, and was quite satisfied with the Midang King's reaction, and then shouted loudly:

"Mi Dang, the dignified princess of Dawei invited you to the banquet of the leader of the Qiang tribe, why are you the only one among the leaders to come, and the leaders of the rest of the tribes? You still say you're not trying to make trouble? Is it stupid to be a general?! ”

was forced by Guo Huai to ask a series of questions, and the king of the mischief was suddenly a little flustered, and unconsciously reached out to touch the knife on his waist, but where was the knife on his waist, he was taken away as soon as he entered the banquet hall.

Guo Huai saw that Mi Dang made this action, and shouted:

"What do you want to do? Touching the knife? Do you still want to commit murder at the banquet? ”

The king of the mischief was in a hurry, and hurriedly said:

"Oh! No, no, no, I'm just nervous...... Right! Nervous...... Nervous to the point that it tickles around the waist! Want to pee! ”

As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials of Cao Wei Yongzhou burst into laughter, but they didn't expect that the king of Midang was frightened by Guo Huai's series of forced questions, and even Cao Aya, who was sitting on the top with a cold and dignified face, couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and almost laughed.

Cao Aya saw that Guo Huai's red face was almost singing, and glanced at Wen Yuan beside him.

Wen Yuan immediately understood, and shouted: "Silence! ”

Everyone quickly shut up and turned their heads to look at the princess.

Cao Aya cleared her throat and said unhurriedly: "The king of the fan, if you want to be convenient, go quickly!" ”

The King of Misty Dang hurriedly shook his hand and said, "Oh no! …… No need, it doesn't seem to be in a hurry! ”

The crowd laughed again.

Cao Aya said: "Lost as the king, this palace asks you, how does my Great Wei treat you Qiang?" ”

The king of Midang originally wanted to say, but in fact it was not very good, a large number of soldiers had to be recruited from the Qiang Hu every year, and the Qiang people provided a large number of horses, and the levy assigned was very heavy, and when it came to rewarding meritorious deeds, the Qiang Hu was often easy to be treated differently.

The Qiang tribe of the king was originally under the command of Ma Chao, but after Ma Chao defected to Shu Han, not all Qiang people followed him to Shu Han, and there were still many Qiang people whose homeland was difficult to leave.

The reason why the Qiang people rebelled against Cao Wei was because they had suffered unfair treatment in Cao Wei and wanted to reunite with the relatives brought into Shu Han by Ma Chao.

The ethnic policy of Shu Han, under the formulation of Zhuge Liang, was actually very relaxed, whether it was Qianghu in the north or Nanban in the south, they basically maintained the national policy of razing and razing, which was easy to get the support of the leaders of the ethnic minorities.

And Cao Wei's governance in Yongliang basically followed the path of changing the land and returning to the stream, basically did not recognize the status of the leader of Qianghu, and the biggest officials in the state and county were still Thorn Shi and Taishou, which was also an important reason for the dissatisfaction of the king.

In the final analysis, the Qiang people have both political and economic status in Shu, and in addition to recognizing the rule of Shu, they are basically a small kingdom within the tribe.

On Cao Wei's side, because of the change of land and return to the stream, although the tribal leader is still nominally the lord of the department, in fact the power is much smaller.

Hearing Cao Aya ask himself like this, he was not stupid to be a king, and quickly replied:

"Great Wei treats my Qiang people very well! Fabulous! ”

Cao Aya said again: "Well, you can recognize the goodness of my Great Wei, this palace hopes that you can become an example of the leader of the Qiang tribe, loyal to the Great Wei, this palace will also ask Your Majesty for you to be crowned, if the Qiang people make contributions in the future, they will not lose the position of marquis!" ”

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, Princess!"

The King of Misty Dang hurriedly nodded in thanks.

Guo Huai saw that he had already convinced the king of the mischief, so he said:

"Okay, since Her Royal Highness the princess has promised to ask for a seal for you, you will stay in Tianshui and enjoy Qingfu, and the generals under your command will be properly settled!"

Cao Aya also added: "My Great Wei is rich in the world's Kyushu, as long as you are loyal to the Great Wei, what others can give you, my Great Wei can double it for you, and if others can't give it to you, I can give it to you!" ”

When the king heard this, he raised his head suddenly, and his eyes began to glow.
