Chapter 296 Intrigue(1/2)

Quietly looking up at Zhao Yue's body.

Zhao Tong pondered for a while and finally figured it out.

Why insist on obsessing over her identity?

Even though her identity is unknown, at least the strategies she offers are beneficial to her so far.

Even if she is really a spy and has evil intentions, how can she care about just being a prostitute?

Thinking of this, he felt relieved.

As for leaving theology to her to build momentum for herself.

In fact, Zhao Tong himself didn't understand.

He was originally from a later generation, and although he had been working on it for several years, he did not fully accept the so-called "theology".

He himself didn't know how to start building momentum and make the Qiang and Di tribes believe in him.

And since Zhao Yue proposed this, then just let her handle it.

Zhao Tong naturally became the hands-off shopkeeper.

After receiving the current evaluation of him from the Qiang land, they began to think about how to make this matter true. On the other hand, Yang Fu, who was leading more than ten attendants at high speed, also rushed towards Jincheng County.

After about ten days of trekking.

Yang Fu and his entourage arrived at Linqiang City, the current capital of the Western Qiang Kingdom.

When they arrived at the city, they informed the Qiang guards who were holding halberds tightly on both sides and asked to meet the Qiang King Cheliji about their intention to come.

The strong and tall royal city guards were wary, and after strictly identifying themselves.

Just now, someone quickly ran towards the city.

Seeing that everything went smoothly, Yang Fu breathed a sigh of relief.

Along the way, he was worried that the Western Qiang Kingdom was not that kind to the Han people.

Now it seems that I won't gain anything from this trip.

He was secretly thinking about various factors in his heart, and then he had the intention to look at the surrounding environment.

Looking at it, he was a little surprised for a moment.

"Is this still Linqiang City?"

Looking around at the scene around him, he shook his head and sighed secretly.

This didn't stop him from being so surprised.

He is originally from Liangzhou.

When he was young, Cheliji, the leader of the Xiqiang Kingdom, had a very weak tribe.

At that time, Linqiang was just a small border town in the west of Jincheng, with a small scale and a sparse number of households.

The difference between the scene and now is so big!

Now when I take a quick look, I can see that the surrounding area outside the city is full of Qiang people dressed in Qiang costumes. They are so densely packed that it is impossible to count how many people there are.

Not only that, there are also many people wearing strange clothes coming and going in and out of the city.

Judging from his attire, he seems to be a businessman from the Western Regions.

Zaixun looked at the city defense of Linqiang. The city wall was about several feet high. The wall was wide, thick and majestic, and the city gate was also extremely thick.

The whole city exudes a majestic and glorious outline.

Yang Fu, who had not been here for many years, was slightly shocked.

"It is often said that most of the Qiang and Di tribes are just ignorant and backward people. I never expected that a small border town could be built into a majestic city in just a few years."

"Looking at the flow of people, it seems that this has become the first choice place for people from foreign lands to do business."

"It seems that there is a great talent in this Western Qiang country!"

Quietly observing everything around me, I gradually thought about it.

According to the battle reports he paid attention to, it only took five or six years for Qiang King Cheliji and his troops to expand eastward.

In just a few years, this border town can be transformed into a legitimate national capital.

Indeed, it is definitely not comparable to the tribes such as Baima and Shaodang who hide in the mountains or on the frontier.

Time passes by minute by second.

It took about a quarter of an hour of waiting.

The order at the city gate suddenly became solemn.

The next second.

Then he saw a middle-aged man who was more than eight feet long, straight and slender, with a resolute yet elegant look on his face, wearing the uniform of a prime minister.

Exuding the aura of a high-ranking official and aristocrat, he was riding slowly on a horse that was red in color and sweating like blood.

Behind him were a group of fully armed Qiang cavalrymen holding long spears.

There was an extremely full and fierce murderous aura on his face!

See it at a glance.

Yang Fu immediately realized that it must be a noble person from the Western Qiang Kingdom.

He immediately took off his clothes and stood in front of the city with his head held high.

He also ordered the more than ten attendants behind him to stand behind him with swords in their hands, cheering up.

After half a ring.

The strong man at the head of the horse-drawn carriage led the crowd to the outside of the city.

Follow closely.

A knight on the side raised his hand in recognition, then proudly faced forward and shouted loudly: "I, Prime Minister Yadan of the Western Qiang Kingdom, are here again. Who is the envoy Cao who came to see you?"

"Please come forward quickly!"

He yelled out one word, and his voice was quite loud.

The news seemed to have spread around the city.

With such an energetic shout, Yang Fu, who was not far away, naturally heard it.

But then he thought about it and realized that this was a demonstration by the other party.

He was forced to lean towards the opponent's power.

Then in the following talks, the Xiqiang side will have an advantage.

Yang Fu, who has always been resourceful, easily figured out the reason why Prime Minister Yadan came to meet him in person.

He did not respond immediately.

Instead, he ordered an attendant beside him to speak softly.

After a while.

The attendant held a saber in his hand, raised his head high and rode out, with a serious look on his face, and shouted in a deep voice: "My husband is here again!"

This is all said and done.

The sound of shouting was no less impressive than the sound just now.

See this.

At this moment, the middle-aged man who was sitting on the back of the sweaty horse, imitating the Han Dynasty and wearing the clothes of the prime minister in blue shirt, heard this response and unconsciously showed a smile on his face.

After pondering for a moment, he said leisurely: "Interesting."

Immediately, he jumped off his bloody horse, stepped forward a few steps, bowed his hands and said, "Since Ambassador Cao is here, why are you covering up?"

"Why don't you come out and meet me?"

One word.

Seeing that Prime Minister Yadan had already paid his respects first.

Upon seeing this, Yang Fu realized that he was not going to put on airs, so he dismounted his horse decisively and returned the salute with his hands raised: "You are the Prime Minister Yadan of Xiqiang Kingdom, right?"

"I am Yang Fu, an aide to the governor of Liangzhou in the Han Dynasty. I have traveled a long way here to see the king."

"I got to meet Prime Minister Ya today. I'm glad to meet you!"

The two of them responded to each other face to face.

After being polite, Yadan also took away the smile on his face, became serious, and asked solemnly: "I wonder why your envoy traveled thousands of miles to my country? Why are you so valuable?"

Hearing this, Yang Fu was still full of expression at this moment, without showing any sign of weakness, and responded with his hands raised: "Is this a place for conversation?"

"Is this your way of hospitality?"

Yadan came back with a straight and sharp retort. Originally, Yadan planned to hit him first, but suddenly realized that the person in front of him seemed to be extraordinary!
