More than 40 years ago, when the huge Northern Zhou Dynasty was still alive, the surname Yuwen was not uncommon, because the Yuwen family was the royal family of the Northern Zhou Dynasty at that time, and there were hundreds of thousands of children of the Yuwen family. In addition, there were many nobles who were given the surname Yuwen by the Yuwen family, which were everywhere in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Not only that, because the Northern Zhou Dynasty was the best in the world at that time, many Han people also decided to change their surnames to Yuwen. The Han people in the Northern Zhou Dynasty naturally did not dare to change their surnames randomly. However, in the Dajin territory, which was in the south, many Han people changed themselves to the Yuwen surname, claiming to be the Northern Zhou royal family, and cheated them in the Dajin territory.

Although this matter sounds absurd, it is something that has actually happened. Because the Northern Zhou Dynasty was strong at that time, these "two barbarians" were still very popular in the territory of the Great Jin Dynasty and even surpassed others.

However, this situation was completely changed when Ye Sheng captured the capital of the Northern Zhou Dynasty more than 40 years ago. Later, in order to prevent the Qingquan of the Great Jin court, not only were the "two barbarians" from the Great Jin Dynasty, but even the real Northern Zhou royal family who did not have time to escape outside the pass changed their surname Yuwen to the Han surname. After more than 40 years, the surname Yuwen was basically no longer visible on the territory of the Great Jin Dynasty.

The person who claimed his surname was Yuwen and came from the north was already very obvious.

Now that the end of the year is approaching, it is quite cold in the capital. Li Xin wears a cotton suit and slowly walks to his front hall.

In the front hall, a woman wearing a moon-white jacket was sitting quietly on a chair waiting for Li Xin's arrival. After seeing Li Xin walk in, the woman slowly got up and blessed Li Xinfu.

"The little woman has met Mr. Li."

Only then did Li Xin see her appearance clearly.

This is a woman with a slightly different appearance from the women in the Central Plains. Compared to this, her skeleton is slightly larger and her facial features are more generous, but her hair is black, and at first glance, she can hardly tell the difference from the Han people.

After all, when the Northern Zhou Dynasty first entered the pass, he was also the emperor in the pass for more than a hundred years. During this period, the Xianbei people intermarried a lot with the Han people, so that even the Yuwen royal family like Yuwen Zhao had more or less blood flowing in their bodies.

Although their appearance is different from that of the Han people, the difference is no longer obvious.

Li Xin just looked at the woman briefly, then sat straight in his home seat and said lightly: "Is it Yuwen Zhao who asked you to come?"

The woman nodded with a smile, then took out an exquisite document from her sleeve and handed it to the table in front of Li Xin: "The little woman's name is Yuwen Que, and her father Yuwen Zhao, came to pay special respects to the Marquis at his father's order."

Her official words were very standard, even more standard than what her father Yuwen Zhao said. Just this official words exceeded 60% to 70% of the officials in the court.

There are also Mandarin-like Mandarin in this era, but it is far from popular. Every time Li Xin went to the Ministry of War, he heard the strange dialects of the Ministry of War, and he was one or two big.

The Xianbei people did not have as many rules as Han people and did not avoid their father's name, so she said it directly.

Li Xin sat in the main seat and glanced at the woman indifferently.

"The girl doesn't look like a Xianbei person in this outfit."

Yuwen Que smiled slightly: "In the Marquis' heart, do we Xianbei people have to wear animal skins?"

"My father liked Chinese studies since childhood and also liked Han clothes. Even the little girls grew up wearing these. Moreover, my Yuwen family once entered the Central Plains. At that time, I was probably more particular about the clothes than the royal family of Jin State."

It is different from living a good life before and never living a good life. Yuwen once enjoyed a blessing in the pass for more than a hundred years, and his vision has already risen. To this day, the upper class of Yuwen rarely wears Xianbei clothes.

Li Xin lowered his head and took a sip of tea.

"If you remember correctly, the last year of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was called Baique." (This is the year of the Later Qin Dynasty in history.)

"It seems that King Yuwen is always thinking about restoring his country over the years."

Yuwen Que quickly lowered his head: "The Marquis misunderstood. His father asked his young woman to come to the capital of Jin State to visit the Emperor of Jin and pay tribute to the Emperor of Jin State."

A few days ago, after a series of attacks by Ye Mao and the Zhong family army, the Yuwen tribes in the north were severely frustrated. Now there is only one Yuwen Zhao tribe and one Yuwen Helan tribe. The entire Yuwen tribe was greatly damaged. However, the Yuwen Zhao tribe annexed the Futu tribe and most of the Qigui tribe. As long as you survive this period, you will grow stronger soon.

Of course, this takes time.

Therefore, it was normal for him to send people to the capital to seek peace from the Great Jin Dynasty. After all, he wanted to buy time for his tribe to digest the Futu tribe.

Marquis Jing'an had no expression on his face.

"According to the rules of the court, even if Yuwen wants to surrender, he should send a man to him."

Li Xin's words have no meaning of discriminating against women. They are somewhat despised by women in this era, and almost no women are responsible for errands like envoys.

"The Marquis misunderstood, the little woman is not an envoy."

She stood in front of Li Xin and saluted Li Xin openly: "What my father meant is to give me to you Jin State as a gift for this worship."

Marquis Jing'an was a little confused.

He could understand the "marriage" reached by the two sides, but how could he have such a "gift" that he had grown two legs and sent him over?

However, this is a very normal thing among the Xianbei people. The weak give the most beautiful girl in their tribe to the strong to please the strong and achieve the purpose of "reconciliation".

This is a marriage in another sense.

Marquis Jing'an was silent for a while, put down the teacup in his hand, and slowly said, "Since that's the case, the girl should go to the palace or the ritual office of the Ministry of Rites. How did she come to me?"

Yuwen Que lowered her head.

"According to my father's meaning, as a gift for worship, I will give me to your emperor of Jin as a woman, but as soon as we arrived in the capital, we heard that your emperor was dead."

Speaking of this, she looked up at Li Xin.

"So, I remembered the Marquis Li mentioned by my father, and brought my servants to visit Marquis Li."

As she said that, she pointed to the gift list: "This is a gift my father prepared for Marquis Li, and it must satisfy the Marquis."

Li Xin looked at the envelope and his face was calm.

"Miss, you have found the wrong person. I no longer serve in Jimen Pass in the northern border, nor at the central secretary's office. At this time, I can't influence the northern border, nor the imperial court. I can't get involved in the Yuwen family's affairs."

As he said that, he pushed the gift list back.

"Li has no blessing to save him."

"There is no need to do anything, Marquis Li."

Yuwen Que stood up, gritted his teeth with embarrassment, and lowered his head and said, "As long as Marquis Li asks the Jin court to stop attacking our Yuwen clan, it will be fine. At that time, the gifts will not only be on the gift list, but I will also stay with Marquis Li as a gift and be the Marquis' daughter... the concubine."

She originally wanted to say women, but she also knew some Han people's etiquette and rules, so she changed her words and said "concubine".

Speaking of this, this Xianbei girl who looked only eighteen or nineteen years old, lowered her head in embarrassment, pinched the corner of her clothes with her hands, and her face turned red.

"Please also ask Mr. Li..."

Marquis Jing'an sat on the chair and was also a little confused for a moment.

It's outrageous. Why didn't this girl just say a few words and act like she was a mistress for herself?
