Chapter 623: The Xi people descended from the household
As Du Shiyi ordered Luo Ying and Hou Xiyi, within more than ten days, more than a hundred Xi people traveling to Yunzhou had already traveled far away.
Although the ones closer to the Xi tribe Raole Governor's Office should be Guizhou and Weizhou, in terms of closeness, not to mention that Yunzhou also lives in the wife of former Xi King Li Dating and Li Lusu's ex-wife Princess Gu'an, even Du Shiyi had visited the Xi tribe. Moreover, since ten years ago, Yunzhou began to import tea to the Xi tribe. Now it has been two years of trading, so other prefectures and counties naturally cannot afford to buy horses. And these Xi people who came from afar sent another message to Du Shiyi that is not good or bad.
Li Lusu has completely lost control of his tribes, but Tu Yu is lobbying the Ahui clan and the Chuhe tribes who should have been affiliated with Li Lusu, and demanding that they join forces with him to join the Turkic clans.
The reason why it is not good is naturally because of the civil strife of the Xi tribe, and it may have joined forces with the Khitan to join the Turks; but it is not bad is because Du Shiyi has no good feelings for Li Lusu, the incompetent King Xi, and is even more unwilling to care about his life or death. The rise and fall of one person, and the other person, should have greater room for maneuvering. And now the most important thing is, what are the plans for these three parts facing such an imminent situation? After thinking about it, he had to gather Princess Gu'an and everyone else and express his plans.
"I plan to send people to the Raole Governor's Office to meet Jihamo and three other ministries, Shijin."
"This is indeed the most suitable way to do it in this situation now." Princess Gu'an agreed to Du Shiyi's proposal, and then smiled slightly, "If I had not been Princess Xi, entering the Xi territory at will probably cause chaos. It should have been me. But in this case, it would be the most suitable for me to let Zhang Yao go. First, she is also familiar with King Xi's tent, and second, let her take 10 or 20 wolf guards, and the road is safe and safe. Otherwise, you Tang officials will not be ordered to enter the Raole Governor's Office without authorization. The ministers of the court are waiting to catch your mistakes, and this is just right to catch them."
"The candidate is good." Wang Lingran was the person who was most familiar with Princess Gu'an and Zhang Yao, except Du Shiyi, and immediately nodded happily.
Du Shiyi nodded slightly. Seeing that no one else had any objections, he was about to make the decision and decided on the matter, but a voice suddenly came from the side: "If Sister Zhang goes, I will go together."
Luo Ying was so angry that he looked back tremblingly. He saw that it was indeed Yue Wuniang, and immediately lamented in his heart. Faced with such a person who volunteered, the others moved to the three feet of Yue Wuniang's body without saying anything. Then, Wang Han coughed: "It's so great, with Yue Wuniang here, Madam Zhang will definitely be safer."
"And Jihamo and others have seen Madam Yue's unique skills, so they will definitely be afraid of three points and make the right decision." This is Hou Xiyi, who wishes to agree with both hands and feet.
"Miss Yue is still planning to go in the name of Ashina?" Wang Lingran remembered the performance of Yue Wuniang in the Turkic tent when the Turkic envoy Mei Luchu came, and couldn't help but ask more questions.
"Of course, the identity of Ashina Moer, the Turkic princess, is very useful. Since Via Khan and Que Teqin of the Turkic tent believed it, there is no reason why the Xi people would not believe it. Maybe they can provide some convenience to Sister Zhang. You all said yes, right?" Yue Wuniang looked at this and that, and finally her eyes fell on Luo Ying, "Luo Lang, are you willing to let me go out for a long trip?"
Are you asking for comments? Haven’t you decided that I can still say no?
Luo Ying was so angry that she couldn't cry, but under Yue Wuniang's usual gaze attack, he could only say dejectedly: "You should be careful."
Facing this scene, Du Shiyi couldn't help but secretly shed tears of sympathy for Luo Ying. However, seeing that Princess Gu'an, Zhang Yao and others had no objection, he determined the matter. However, when he returned to Wang Rong's bedroom and talked about this, he put aside all the seriousness in front of him and laughed happily.
"Every time I see their couple, I always feel that Luo Ying is still the bald monk back then. I really don't know how they get along on weekdays."
"I may be depressed if Luo Ying is gloating." Wang Rong remembered that Yue Wuniang also claimed to let Luo Ying go east on weekdays, but he did not dare to go west, and the corners of her mouth naturally curled up. But after a while, she remembered the incident of Cui Hao's resignation and divorce of his wife mentioned by her husband. Her original smile gradually could not be maintained. After pondering for a while, she said softly, "Do you want me to go to Xiao Cui's house and persuade him to make peace?"
"No need." When he mentioned Cui Hao, Du Shiyi's tone suddenly became stiff. "What I care about is that he married him again and again and again, and he cares about his irresponsible attitude. I have advised him twice, but since he intends to do his own thing, he will let him force melons to be sweet."
Since the husband clearly did not want to mention this matter again, Wang Rong could only stop, but his charming and beautiful face was always lingering in his mind. She had contacted him several times and knew that he was indeed a woman who was not very familiar with other women from human relationships to classics and history books. Such a wife might be worthy of greed when she was fresh, but after being together for a long time, she would naturally make people tired. But since Cui Hao married because of her beauty, she abandoned her all the time. This spread among the scholars and forests, it is indeed one of the most despicable qualities.
Zhang Yao and Yue Wuniang and their group started their journey, so low-key that they were silent. After they left, there were more than a hundred people who came to join the Xi people one after another. In order to prevent people from being gossiped, Du Shiyi personally wrote a memorial and sent it to Chang'an with a quick horse. Then he instructed Luo Ying and Hou Xiyi to strengthen their combat preparations. In order to strengthen the defense of Yunzhou, he sent someone to transfer Nan Jiyun back, and at the same time notified Cui Jianxuan to step up the defense in Huairen County.
Nearly a month passed, and the Xi people who entered Yunzhou had reached four or five hundred. To be on the safe side, Du Shiyi simply broke up all the people, half of them were placed in Huairen, and half were placed outside Yunzhou City where slaves were used to resettle. Just as he was calculating the journey of Zhang Yao and Yue Wuniang and his worries were getting heavier and he finally got a messenger from the Raole Governor's Office.
"But Tu Yu killed Khitan King Li Shaogu, ordered the Khitan troops to join the Turks, and he also brought the Xi people Ahui and many of the people from the Chuhe tribe. Li Lusu could not control the Ahui soldiers and horses of the Ahui tribe, where the tent was located. The Chuhe tribe was also disappointed with him. He was almost killed and established his authority. Finally, he fled to Yuguan Shou to capture him. As for his wife Princess Dongguang and Li Shaogu's wife Princess Donghua, they ran to the Pinglu army to request asylum."
Du Shiyi paused and saw that the others had already received such a sudden message. He said word by word, "Jihamo's Duji tribe is unwilling to go to the Turks, but now the Khitan is powerful and has also entangled the Ahui tribe and the Chuhe tribe. He is in a dilemma, so he requests to retreat to Yunzhou for asylum. Although the Aoshi tribe and the Yuanqizhe tribe are hesitant and repetitive, they are not willing to go to the Turks. You must know that the Turks have always regarded the tribes that they go to surrender as pigs and dogs. They are driven like slaves on weekdays, and they have to bring their own weapons as their pioneers in wartime. If they don't do a good job in their own territory, they are going to be a lackey. Who would be happy?"
This simple truth made Princess Gu'an smile for a moment: "That's right, that's the truth. And according to what Zhang Yao said in this letter, the opposite of the sudden idea was not suddenly, but because he was treated and even scolded by Li Yuan when he went to Chang'an to pay tribute last year. Li Yuan was arrogant and even scolded by Li Yuan at that time. At that time, he was not the King of Khitan. He who valued orthodoxy the most naturally regarded him as an ordinary minister under the command of the King of Khitan. But he didn't know that in places like the Khitan, the strong are the most important. The so-called orthodoxy is just a name. If he does not have the strength, he will be cut by a knife anytime and anywhere. So, after being humiliated and returned to the Khitan, he was determined to rebel against the Tang Dynasty. Since Li Shaogu disagreed, he was naturally killed. Of course, the most important thing now is whether to accept the Xi tribe's Duji tribe, or in other words, it is very likely that the three tribes of the Xi tribe?"
"The Duji Department alone may make Yunzhou tight. If all three departments enter Yunzhou, it is likely to be the main guest." As the chief judge of the Six Caos, Guo Quan was the first to oppose, "If the three departments of the Xi tribe are added together, the number of troops will never be reduced to 20,000. How many people in the entire Yunzhou?"
"And, the area bordering the Governor's Office of Raole is Youzhou. The Xi people crossed Youzhou and entered Yunzhou. The Zhao Changshi of Youzhou will inevitably be unhappy. After all, if such a big thing happens, the court will inevitably react. At that time, Your Majesty will most likely instruct Youzhou to prepare to send troops. At that time, they will contribute, and Yunzhou will benefit. How can others be happy?" Wang Han said this.
"But it would be a pity if such a military horse delivered to the door was directly pushed out." Wang Lingran's current habit of being infected with the philistines clearly showed signs of gradually increasing. He sighed when he said this, "Justice's only the Duji Department's livestock and military horses can directly make the population and military power in Yunzhou go up to a higher level."
"We can't just look at gains and losses. You must know that the transaction volume of mutual trading in the chaos between the Xi people and the Khitan will inevitably be greatly reduced this year. Lao Guo is right. With Yunzhou's current vocation of only 10,000, it will not be able to eat the huge population of soldiers and horses of the three tribes of the Xi tribe. Moreover, they will eventually find it difficult to leave their hometowns and will probably try to go back in the future. So, my plan is that since only Jihamo proposed to retreat to Yunzhou to protect himself, I will agree to his request and let him rest and recuperate first to the north of Yunzhou and the south of the Wei Great Wall. Since he surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, I will write a letter while recruiting Xi people to build another army in the name of the Yunzhong Guardian Envoy."
