Chapter 145: People have their hearts and minds
Jiang Wei's army marched into Haitou City, and outside the city, Shi Chengyi, the head of the Changshi Mansion of the Western Regions, led the officials of the Changshi Mansion and waited outside the city gate early.
Huang Fulong hurriedly stepped forward and introduced: "Cheng Changshi, this is my Great Han Wei General, Liangzhou Thorn Shi Jiang Wei." ”
Cheng Yi hurriedly led the officials of the Western Regions Changshi Mansion to kneel and bow.
"Xiaguan Western Regions Governor Shi Chengyi, meet Lord Thorn Shi!"
The Changshi Mansion of the Western Regions, in the time of Cao Wei, was placed under the jurisdiction of the Liangzhou Thorn History Mansion and belonged to Xu Miao. Now that he has returned to the Han Dynasty, he is naturally the first to look forward to Jiang Weima, the Liangzhou assassin of the Han Dynasty.
Jiang Wei hurriedly helped Cheng Yi up, and said with a smile: "Cheng Changshi is far away from the Central Plains, guarding the Western Regions for the Han Dynasty, and he has worked hard, so he doesn't need to be polite, please hurry up!" ”
Cheng Yi saw that Jiang Wei was very polite to him, and he was worried about whether he would be troubled by Shu Han's superiors as a general, but now it seems that he is too worried.
Cheng Yi turned around and introduced to Jiang Wei: "Lord Assassin Shi, the lower officials have obeyed the orders of the adults and invited the lords of the Western Regions, and now the lords of the countries are still in the Changshi Mansion, so the lower officials will introduce them one by one!" ”
"There is a long history of labor!" Jiang Wei replied with a smile, and followed Cheng Yi to the Changshi Mansion.
Although Haitou City is not big, it is located on the Silk Road, it is an important trade transit station, so the Han and Hu are mixed, merchants gather, and the whole city is also quite lively, everywhere you can see all kinds of caravans, leading camels and horses, walking around the streets.
The buildings of Loulan are very different from those of the Central Plains, the Central Plains are mainly brick and wood structures, while the buildings of Loulan are mainly earth and stone, because the Western Regions are perennial drought and little rain, so the buildings basically do not have corner towers that lead to water, most of them are flat-roofed houses, and occasionally there are solid people's homes, and there will be round vaults, which have a unique flavor.
The clothes of the people in the Western Regions are also very different from those of the Central Plains, especially the women on the street, in order to show their beautiful figures, most of them like to wear brightly colored narrow sleeves and long skirts, which look graceful and graceful.
Guan Yinping and Hua Fei kept looking at everything new and strange in front of them along the way, especially Guan Yinping, feeling that the veil of the woman in the Western Regions was bright in color, and there was a hazy beauty on her head, and she discussed with Hua Fei to go back and buy a Western Regions costume herself.
Hua Fei felt that the costumes of the Western Regions were still not as beautiful as the Nanban costumes, and when it came to color matching, the colors of the Nanban costumes were richer, but Hua Hu was still very proud of this, and she proudly said to Guan Yinping that she must be the farthest Nanban queen who has ever gone far away.
When you go back and bring some Western Regions specialties back to Nanzhong, I don't know what you have to envy the leaders of Nanzhong? Many tribes and barbarians in Nanzhong have never walked out of the mountains in their lives, but once they have been to Chengdu, they feel that they have seen the whole world, and they are really frogs at the bottom of the well.
When he arrived outside the Governor's Mansion in the Western Regions, a group of people poured out to greet Jiang Wei.
These people are very different from the Central Plains just by looking at their appearance, most of them have high nose bridges, deep eye sockets, and speak broken Chinese:
"Welcome to the Great Han's General! …… Welcome friends from afar......"
Jiang Wei bowed to them one by one.
Shi Chengyi, the governor of the Western Regions, introduced Jiang Wei to this group of nobles in the Western Regions one by one, those who were closer to Loulan often came in person, and those who were farther often sent princes or ministers as envoys.
Major powers in the Western Regions, such as Wusun, the largest power in the Western Regions at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains and with a population of more than 100,000, sent a prince to attend the meeting. Speaking of which, this prince more or less has a trace of Han blood, because in order to unite Wusun to deal with the Xiongnu, the Han Dynasty once married a princess to Wusun.
Another example is the great country of Qiuci also sent the country's prime minister to come, Qiuci country is also located at the foot of the Tianshan Mountain, but it is closer to Loulan than Wusun country, the country has a population of more than 80,000 people, taking advantage of the decline of the Western Regions Protectorate, and constantly annexing the surrounding small countries, has annexed Gumo, Wensu, Weitou and other countries, Qiuci is the most powerful country in the Western Regions except Wusun.
Yanqi country is in the north of Loulan country, it is the king himself led a team to Loulan, Yanqi country has not been restless these years, taking advantage of the chaos of the Central Plains Dynasty, but also continue to encroach on the surrounding small countries, annexed Moshan, Weixu, Yuli, robbery and many other small countries, now the country's population has reached 32,000 people, can be regarded as a big country in the Western Regions.
Shanshan State was originally from the Loulan State lineage, the two countries were once the same country, after Loulan became the Western Regions Governor's Mansion, Shanshan State also sent a king to participate in the alliance. Shanshan was once a hegemon in the Western Regions, jumping left and right between the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty repeatedly, and was attacked by Ban Chao first, with 36 warriors, the Xiongnu camped, and the Shanshan country declined.
Khotan, on the other hand, was far away from Loulan and located south of the Great Sand Sea in the Western Regions, so a prince was sent to attend the meeting. Khotan was originally only a small country, but because of the abundance of Hetian jade, the national strength became stronger and stronger, and it also began to take advantage of the decline of the Central Plains Dynasty and began to encroach on the surrounding small countries, such as Ronglu, Humi, Qule, Pishan and other small countries were annexed by Khotan.
There are also many smaller kingdoms, such as the Shache Kingdom, the Elite Kingdom, and the End Kingdom......
These large and small countries, in Jiang Wei's opinion, are nothing more than small tribes, Jiang Wei couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "It's really a small country, alas, I'm not targeting you, I mean everyone here is scum!" ”
But Jiang Wei stopped the disdain in his heart and greeted the kings and nobles very politely.
Especially when passing by the Queen of the Exquisite Country, Jiang Wei looked at the Queen of the Exquisite Country with great interest.
This exquisite queen is known as the first beauty in the Western Regions, I saw that she was about 20 years old, a tight long skirt set off a graceful and enchanting figure, wearing a scarf on her head, her face was also covered with a veil, and a pair of deep big eyes seemed to hide endless stories.
Jiang Wei stared at the Absolute Queen for a long time, and then sighed in his heart: "I have seen the eyes of the Absolute Queen, fortunately it has not been petrified, I wonder if there will be red spots like eyes on my back?" ”
Seeing that Jiang Wei had been staring at herself, the Absolute Queen was also a little embarrassed, and bowed her head gratefully to prevent Jiang Wei from continuing to look at her, but muttered in her heart: "Could it be that this Han general has taken a fancy to this queen?" ”
Guan Yinping coughed vigorously behind Jiang Wei.
"Ahem!"
Jiang Wei woke up immediately.
"Hey, I almost forgot that there were two ladies behind me! I can't take a few more glances at the beauties, and I won't take them out on a business trip next time! Jiang Wei sighed in his heart.
At the invitation of Cheng Yi, Jiang Wei's group of Han officials and the princes and nobles of the Western Regions entered the Western Regions Changshi Mansion one after another.
Because there were too many guests, the banquet hall of the Changshi Mansion obviously couldn't sit so many people, so Changshi Chengyi ordered someone to draw a curtain on the lawn outside the Changshi Mansion, and used the curtain of the Changshi Mansion in the Western Regions as the city curtain wall to give everyone an open-air banquet.
The people of the Western Regions were accustomed to eating in the open air and did not feel anything lazy, but Jiang Wei and the others followed the customs of the locals and also sat down one after another.
Everyone gathered in a big circle, just like an outdoor party, and they were happy.
On the chairman's seat, Jiang Wei sat down, the two ladies sat on both sides of Jiang Wei, Liu Yuan sat obediently next to Guan Yinping, and then Shi Chengyi, the chief of the Western Regions, the Dunhuang Taishou Emperor Fulong, and the commander of the Qilin Army, Liang Xu.
The princes and nobles of the Western Regions countries sat at the other end of the circle.
After all the guests were seated, Shi Chengyi, the chief of the Western Regions, raised his wine glass and said to everyone:
"Honorable General Han Wei, Lord Jiang Wei of Liangzhou Thorn History, distinguished kings, princes, and distinguished guests of the Western Regions, welcome to my Han Dynasty Western Regions Long History Mansion, now, my Western Regions Long History Mansion has returned to the embrace of the Han Dynasty, and you have become the people of the Han Dynasty again, let us raise a glass together to celebrate the return to the Han Dynasty!"
Everyone stood up and toasted in celebration.
Jiang Wei saw that everyone present was happy, and sighed in his heart:
"It seems that all the countries in the Western Regions are thinking about Han! This is very good, very good! ”
