Chapter 91: The people are angry, the strong demons enter the summer, and the envoys of various coun
"Marriage?"
"His grandma's kiss."
"Why should I, Daxia, marry the Huns?"
As the news from the court spread, the people of Kyoto were instantly in an uproar.
For the common people, getting married is an extremely bad thing. After all, it is not a good thing to send a woman from Daxia to a deserted place on the frontier.
I won’t talk about it if I suffer it. The main thing is that it feels like sending a woman to ask for peace.
But for many people, marriage is not a bad thing, and some people know that marriage is a good thing. It is a great good thing that the two countries will form an alliance, trade with each other, and have no war.
It's just that the people in Kyoto are different. Although there are also poor people in Kyoto, at least they have no worries about food and clothing. Moreover, they are at the feet of the emperor, and every household has some connections. The most common topics to talk about are related to government affairs.
Within Kyoto.
It was a scolding, but it was obvious that someone was doing it deliberately, hoping that Daxia would start a war.
However, no matter what the scolding, everyone knows one thing, that is, the court has made a decision.
The Xiongnu Kingdom has apologized and done everything it should do. The Ministry of Rites is now going to negotiate with the Xiongnu Kingdom. If there are no major problems, then the marriage is basically stable.
Nowadays, many daughters of officials have begun to worry.
No one wants to marry a Huns.
Although being made a princess sounds very nice, in reality? Isn’t she a political victim?
You've already been married to an unfamiliar place, so you still expect your status as a princess to be useful?
To be honest, if you are really bullied, just shut up. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. People can bully you as much as they want. If they really want to kill you, I will die from the cold.
What can you say?
All in all, if the people continue to scold them, the daughters of high-ranking officials will be extremely panicked, fearing that they will be selected.
The news of the marriage naturally spread to Daxia Academy.
inside the room.
Gu Jinnian is calculating the gold in front of him.
Didn't the Twelfth Prince of Dajin send a piece of jade? Gu Jinnian threw it directly to Wang Fugui and asked him to help sell it.
The prince's gift was naturally not cheap, and Wang Fugui did not dare to sell it, fearing that it would cause trouble to Gu Jinnian if it was discovered, so he simply paid for it himself. Anyway, his father also liked this kind of thing.
The price is also very reasonable, 10,000 taels of gold, but Gu Jinnian wants silver in cash.
Therefore, throughout the whole day, Wang Fugui ran back and forth three times before delivering 10,000 taels of gold to Gu Jinnian's residence.
No one knew why the grandson of the grand duke loved money so much, but when Gu Jinnian opened his mouth, he couldn't say anything.
Inside the academy dormitory.
Gu Jinnian looked at the three large boxes of gold and seemed a little helpless. He got so much gold just to solve the case as soon as possible.
But one thing I have to say is that it is really depressing that the ancient tree does not accept cash checks. Ten thousand taels of gold is fine. If we really want to calculate something bigger in the future, it will cost one hundred thousand taels or even one million taels of gold. Gu Jinnian
Definitely not doing it.
Digesting ten million taels of gold would not only be exhausting, but more importantly, the currency would collapse.
Gold is not a hard currency. It is basically the currency of major banks and foreign trade transactions. The common people still circulate copper coins and broken silver. They even often use scissors to cut off a piece of silver, so some are not particularly rich.
Every household in the city has a pair of scissors, which are used to cut silver.
However, as gold is the core of currency, banks must have gold reserves to avoid silver exchange incidents.
One million taels of gold, even a bank in a prefectural city can't raise that much.
If we do this seven or eight times, Daxia's currency will also have a big problem. If the gold disappears, it will disappear. No new gold mines have been discovered in Daxia in recent years.
After scratching his head, Gu Jinnian was about to start working.
A voice sounded outside.
"His Royal Highness."
It was Su Huaiyu's voice.
"Enter."
Gu Jinnian seemed very natural when he heard Su Huaiyu's voice.
At that moment, Su Huaiyu walked into the room.
Stepping into the room, Su Huaiyu's eyes immediately fell on these three boxes.
The golden gold ingot made Su Huaiyu frown.
"The law of Daxia, the law of accepting bribes, anyone who accepts a bribe exceeding two hundred taels of silver will be executed."
"Those who exceed five hundred taels of silver will be tortured before their eyes and then executed."
"Those who exceed one thousand taels of silver will be punished with wrists, feet, eyes, and execution."
"Your Highness, Ling Chi is not too much for your number."
Su Huaiyu subconsciously thought that Gu Jinnian had taken bribes. After all, these three large boxes of gold must have at least 10,000 taels of gold, right?
"This is not bribery."
Gu Jinnian closed the lid of the box and replied.
"The crime of bribery exceeds 5,000 taels of silver. He must be executed immediately. This amount is enough even for Lingchi."
Su Huaiyu said calmly.
"It's not a bribe, I sold something myself."
"Are you looking for me?"
Gu Jinnian was used to Su Huaiyu's way of speaking, so he directly asked the other party why he came.
"His Royal Highness, you can actually trust me completely. If you are really bribed, just give me a small amount and I can keep it a secret."
Su Huaiyu slowly walked towards the three big boxes and said in a serious tone.
"If you fart, hurry up."
Gu Jinnian was too lazy to talk to him. Is this man obsessed with money?
This is all your hard-earned money, so you want to have sex for nothing? Is this a habit?
"Does His Highness the Crown Prince remember the declaration of war in Daxia?"
Hearing that Gu Jinnian was so serious, Su Huaiyu couldn't help but show a look of disappointment in his eyes. It seemed that he hoped that this was the money Gu Jinnian had received from bribes.
"Remember, what happened?"
"Are you sure we're going to fight?"
Gu Jinnian nodded and poured a cup of tea.
To be honest, Gu Jinnian doesn't really want to start a war. To be more precise, the current situation in Daxia is better to just rest and recuperate. There is no need to start a war.
"no."
"The Xiongnu Kingdom has apologized, and the people who massacred the villages were not the Huns' cavalry, but someone pretending to be one."
"However, these are the meanings of the Huns. I don't know what they are specifically."
Su Huaiyu replied.
"It's okay to apologize. It's better not to fight, so as not to cause any trouble."
Gu Jinnian nodded.
This is very good, it is good news.
"What the prince said is absolutely true, but after the Xiongnu apologized, they wanted to make peace with Daxia."
"Marry a princess and go to the Xiongnu country. I hope the two countries will have good relations and make good allies."
Su Huaiyu said lightly, but still stared at the three boxes.
He looks a little bit evil-minded.
"Marriage?"
"Why is the Xiongnu country so happy to make peace with Daxia?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Jinnian was a little surprised and didn't care about Su Huaiyu's sly look.
"I don't know, but there must be some agenda, maybe for the national destiny."
Su Huaiyu was very calm and made a judgment.
"For the national destiny?"
"how do you know?"
Hearing the word "national destiny", Gu Jinnian became a little sensitive. This matter was a little different.
"Guess."
Su Huaiyu turned around and looked at Gu Jinnian with an expressionless face.
""
After taking a sip of tea, Gu Jinnian was a little speechless.
"Marrying a princess will bring luck to the country?"
"You have never heard of such a thing in ancient times, right?"
"If it was really about the destiny of the country, how could Daxia marry a princess?"
Gu Jinnian put down the tea cup. He did not agree with this reason.
"you're right."
Su Huaiyu nodded.
Ah this.
"How sure are you?"
Gu Jinnian asked.
Although there is something wrong with Su Huaiyu's speech, his guesses are usually very accurate, no different from his mother's cheating.
"not sure."
"Just a guess."
Su Huaiyu shook his head, because this was indeed just his guess. If you ask him to say why, he can't tell. Anyway, it just feels like this. If you believe it, you can believe it. If you don't believe it, there's nothing you can do about it.
"Then go tell Li Ji about this. If it's really for the national destiny, this is a trap."
Gu Jinnian spoke up and asked Su Huaiyu to find Li Ji.
"If you don't cause trouble, it's okay if you come back to me for questioning. If I really can't explain it clearly, I'll probably be put in jail for a few more years."
Su Huaiyu is really real in the world. If the sky falls, he won't be the one to hold it up anyway. He plays Lying Down vividly.
This kind of person would be really sorry if he were not put in jail.
"It should be for trade. The border relations are so bad that the people on both sides don't want to live a good life. If we form an alliance, there will be a lot of trade and some unrest can be quelled. Things like looting and massacre of villages will not happen again.
"
"Getting married is a good thing."
"The only drawback is that you have to sacrifice a woman's happiness."
Gu Jinnian spoke up with a serious expression.
As a screenwriter who relies on history, Gu Jinnian has a certain say in the matter of marriage.
If you look at the matter of marriage from a long historical perspective, you will find that marriage means two things.
The dynasty is not strong.
Dynasties take time.
Any powerful dynasty does not need marriage. It is actually a shame to rely on marriage to maintain imperial rule.
Just like when Taizu was around, who dared to propose marriage to Taizu? If you don’t beat you up, you will doubt your life. Taizu’s surname is reversed.
It is a pity that Daxia has been in civil strife for a long time, and Jiande could not defeat Daxia. The most important thing is that Taizu killed many heroes back then. After all, the prince died, and Taisun Jiande came to the throne in order to stabilize his rule.
They had no choice but to target the former heroes, so that Daxia's military power declined infinitely. This was because Gu Jinnian's grandfather had a firm hand and went to the border early. Otherwise, the Gu family would also be liquidated during the reign of Taizu.
It is precisely because of this that the Gu family is in great power, and Cong Long is the main one. What is more important is that all the brave and unparalleled generals in the past died, and the whole family was executed, and the nine clans were implicated.
Because of the above reasons, the Daxia Dynasty declined a lot. It basically did not collapse, but it was not much better.
Nomads like the Xiongnu in the north often harassed them, and the west was not much better. Although they were not Xiongnu, they were some grassland tribes, more disgusting than the Xiongnu. At least the Xiongnu did not dare to do things blatantly.
If you really want to do something radical, the worst case scenario is a fight.
But those nomadic foreigners in the west are truly disgusting existences. They rob merchants, rob people, and commit murder and arson.
If we can form an alliance with the Xiongnu Kingdom, then Daxia does not need to send its own troops to deal with it. It only needs to say hello to the Xiongnu Kingdom, and this phenomenon will be greatly reduced.
Maybe businessmen will still rob them. After all, there is too much money and too many benefits. It is really fun.
It's not that Daxia is not strong, but it takes time to develop. This development will not take long, ten or twenty years, unless we encounter natural and man-made disasters like Jiangning County.
It would take at most thirty years for the Daxia Dynasty to regain its former glory.
It would be embarrassing to wait until that time.
What? How dare you look at me? You want to declare war, right? Brothers, the Huns look down on us and call us Daxia people dogs, so why don’t they do this?
The plot developed roughly like this, because the two soldiers looked at each other from a distance and then started fighting.
No need for any other excuse, I will hit you just because I hit you.
And how to spend these twenty or thirty years?
Make peace.
It's a delaying tactic.
A marriage may seem like a shame, but it hides wisdom. Once a marriage is made, everyone's relationship will be eased, trade will begin, and people on both sides will smile. Our border will be fine, and your country will be stable.
Hello, hello, hello everyone, the only sacrifice is one person.
This woman was sent for marriage.
But to the court, one woman is nothing, not even ten, a hundred, or a thousand.
Sacrifice means sacrifice.
Once a war breaks out, hundreds of thousands of soldiers will die on the border. Even if they are defeated, it will be hell on earth. It will not be just one or two people who die, but millions of people.
How many people died in the twelve border cities? How many people died?
After seven days of slaughtering the city, you didn't even have time to cry.
So, getting married is not a bad thing.
Apart from the instinctive aversion that belongs to modern people and an indescribable feeling of frustration, in fact, from an economic point of view and the overall perspective of the country, getting married is a good thing.
A good thing that benefits the country and the people.
But from a personal perspective, it's disgusting.
Especially in a place like the Xiongnu, there is still a system of wives after the death of the father and the mother.
This means that if the father dies, all the father's concubines will become his son's women.
Isn't this the fate of one of the four beauties?
It's cruel and morbid.
It is unacceptable to ordinary people. For married people, it is extreme pain and torture. Life is probably worse than death.
If the selected princess also has a sweetheart, it would be a human tragedy.
Putting aside rationality, Gu Jinnian felt disgusted and unhappy in his heart.
But there is nothing you can do about it, and it is difficult to stop it yourself.
"The people have already begun to curse."
"The students in the academy also started to curse."
"This matter is not as simple as it seems."
Su Huaiyu took a sip of tea and felt that this matter was not that simple.
"It's normal to curse a few times."
"It will be fine after you get married and settle down for a while."
Gu Jinnian can understand that after all, the people of Daxia still have a sense of pride and pride. These things are not innate, but created by Taizu.
Dressed in commoner clothes, he swept through ten kingdoms and gained a great reputation, as well as the prestige of Daxia.
It's just that things will not change because of the abuse.
After all, marrying a woman and getting the country stable for twenty years is better than going to war in Daxia, where hundreds of thousands of troops would die in the battle and millions of people would be massacred if they were defeated.
Think about these two, who scolds more fiercely?
"kindness."
Su Huaiyu spoke calmly.
"Why are you always here to be nice, why don't you say anything else?"
Gu Jinnian frowned, this guy is sick, right? He said so much, and here he is, um, um, I don’t know what he is um.
Facing Gu Jinnian's displeasure, Su Huaiyu acted particularly calmly and continued to drink tea.
"This topic is not easy to engage in."
"Easily beaten."
Su Huaiyu said something very strange.
Easily beaten?
What does it mean?
Before Gu Jinnian could say anything more, several figures walked in.
They are Li Ji, Wang Fugui, Yang Hanrou and others.
Five figures came over.
It's pretty straightforward, just find a seat one by one and sit down.
"It's crazy, it's crazy. It's completely crazy outside. Everyone in Kyoto is scolding the court."
"The marriage is going to cause big trouble."
Wang Fugui was covered in sweat. He ran back and forth three times, and just went out again to pay the bills.
So I saw some situations in Kyoto.
"The imperial court will take action, and the trouble won't last for a few days."
Gu Jinnian spoke calmly.
"This incident has aroused public resentment, but I heard that the whole incident is just an ordinary marriage. For the sake of friendship between the two countries, we can't cause trouble."
Yang Hanrou nodded and said.
"What nonsense are the two countries friendly? According to my opinion, they should be beaten, beaten hard. How dare you mention marriage after you have spoiled these Hun dogs?"
Li Ji spoke up, a little annoyed. He grew up in a military camp and has an extreme temperament. He is definitely a militant.
At the same time, he glanced at Yang Hanrou and couldn't help but murmured.
"Why aren't you worried at all? Aren't you afraid that if someone chooses you to go to the Huns to get married?"
After saying this, Yang Hanrou became a little silent.
But everyone knows that the department that selects the princess is the Ministry of Etiquette. No matter how selfless Yang Kai is, he can't let his granddaughter suffer, right?
"Okay, have you heard what I asked you to inquire about?"
Gu Jinnian didn't want to continue talking about this topic.
Instead, move to another topic.
That's about this month's homework.
As soon as these words were said, everyone immediately spoke up.
"I've already asked, Senior Brother Xu Ya and their files are about the shipwreck case, which led to the restructuring of the Ministry of Punishment."
Fairy Yaochi spoke up, and she went to find Xu Ya and others to ask what the other party's file was.
"Has it been transcribed?"
Gu Jinnian asked.
"kindness."
Fairy Yaochi took out the copied file and placed it in front of Gu Jinnian.
"He Peng's case is a missing case, a missing girl from Bailu Mansion."
Jiang Yezhou also took out a file. He Peng was the son of He Yan, the Minister of Household Affairs, and was now a member of Qilin Pavilion.
"The cases of Zhao Guang and Wang Fuming were respectively the drowning case of the head of the Criminal Department and the assassination of a member of the Criminal Department."
"But I forgot to copy it, but I remember roughly."
Li Ji spoke, but he was a little embarrassed. He didn't copy the file, he just read it once.
Zhao Guang is the son of the Minister of War.
Wang Fuming was the son of the Minister of Industry.
They are all from Qilin Pavilion.
"Drowning? Assassination?"
Gu Jinnian frowned, there is something wrong with this.
"Well, the head of the Criminal Department who handled this matter drowned the next year because he drank too much."
"As for the foreign minister who retired from old age and returned to his hometown, he encountered a bandit on the road. The Criminal Department also immediately destroyed the bandit stronghold and killed more than 400 people without leaving a single person behind."
Li Ji replied.
"Kill and silence?"
Gu Jinnian looked at everyone and concluded this matter.
"It's possible, but not necessarily."
"I know about the drowning. The head of the Punishment Department is a heavy drinker. He has been drinking for decades. Sometimes he drinks secretly in the Punishment Department. Moreover, this is not the first time he has drowned. He has drowned twice before. It was simply because he was
People were rescued."
"This time it was midnight, and all the restaurants in Kyoto were closed. There were a few in the more remote places. After getting drunk, I had to go to the lake to recite poetry alone, and finally died."
"You deserve it."
Su Huaiyu spoke out, he didn't know about the others, but he knew that the head of the Criminal Department deserved to die.
But everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on him, and their eyes were a little strange.
"He has a grudge against me."
Feeling everyone's gaze, Su Huaiyu replied calmly.
For a moment, everyone nodded.
There is a grudge.
That's okay.
"It's really rare for Yuan Wailang to be assassinated."
Gu Jinnian touched his chin. Yuan Wai Lang was a fifth-rank official, a member of the Criminal Department, and a senior official in the capital. Outside, he could be on an equal footing with a fourth-rank official.
Such a high-ranking official retired and returned to his hometown, but he was assassinated.
This is weird.
However, all the people involved in the case were killed, so the clues are basically closed.
The room is quiet.
As people learn more about it, they find that this thing becomes more and more strange, but everything is extremely reasonable.
I can't find fault even if I want to.
"Actually, I have an idea."
Suddenly, Wang Fugui spoke, breaking the silence.
At that moment, everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at him.
"What's the idea?"
Li Ji asked.
"Otherwise, I'll go to Bailu Mansion."
"It might not be convenient for you to go. It's okay for me to go. I have business in Bailu Mansion."
"I'm going to investigate. If there is really something fishy, send a message immediately. If necessary, everyone can investigate together."
"If there really isn't any problem, then I'm just being paranoid. I went there once, and in summary, I've done what I should do. Mr. Wenjing can't give a bad rating, right? At least he's a good one."
"What do you think?"
Wang Fugui volunteered and planned to go to Bailu Mansion.
Talking about ten days and ten nights here is just speculation. There are no actual clues or evidence, and no breakthrough can be found. It is completely meaningless.
"This is a good idea."
"But it's not feasible for Brother Wang to go alone. It's best to bring a few more people."
Gu Jinnian nodded, this is indeed a good idea. Although Wang Fugui comes from a merchant family, he is much better than powerful people like them, at least he will not be noticed.
But it’s still a bit dangerous if you go alone, so it’s okay to bring more people.
"I'll go with Brother Wang."
"Pull Zhao Guang, He Peng, and Wang Fuming over together."
"It shouldn't be anything serious."
Jiang Yezhou spoke up and took He Peng and the others away.
"OK."
"Contact me immediately if I have any news. It's best to write one letter a day. If there is no news from you within a day, I will personally take someone to Bailu Mansion."
"If you encounter danger, don't force yourself. Just show my name at the critical moment."
"If someone really makes trouble for you, I will not let any of the officials in Jiangling County go."
Gu Jinnian said, he didn't know how involved this matter was. If there was really any conspiracy involved, I'm afraid the people involved would be very scary.
So what Gu Jinnian said was not a joke.
Being prevented from investigating, this is acceptable, but if it hurts or harms others, Gu Jinnian will defeat all officials in Jiangling County.
After that, Gu Jinnian handed over his jade order to the two of them.
"Brother Gu, please rest assured."
The two stood up. Wang Fugui took the token and set off directly with Jiang Yezhou without hesitation.
Let’s take a quick trip.
Anyway, if you have money, you won’t be afraid wherever you go.
"Take care of yourself."
Gu Jinnian spoke, and the others also stood up and bowed their hands towards the two of them.
"Waiting for our good news."
Wang Fugui didn't want to be long-winded. Once this matter was done, he wanted to demonstrate his ability and find out more about it.
After the two of them leave.
Gu Jinnian didn't hesitate and directly invited the others out.
Start tinkering with this gold.
Gu Jinnian was also free and easy, buying news once with one thousand taels of gold.
And after these several purchases, Gu Jinnian noticed several points.
The information given by the ancient tree is still somewhat random, and the information given is also relatively messy. Sometimes the information given by one thousand taels of gold may not be worth one hundred taels.
But sometimes it exceeds the value of one thousand taels of gold.
Just like the assassination of Prince Dajin.
This is definitely not news that one thousand taels of gold can buy, not even ten thousand taels of gold.
But if it's less than one thousand taels of gold, then you basically can't get any good news.
One thousand taels is a dividing line.
After a stick of incense.
All ten thousand taels of gold were used up.
Gu Jinnian walked out of the room, found a deserted place, and picked the krypton gold fruit.
He always felt that the feng shui of his room was not good, and there was no good news every time he opened it.
Wait until Gu Jinnian leaves.
Less than half an hour later, the knock on the door rang again.
It's Su Huaiyu.
Seeing that there was no one in the room, Su Huaiyu slowly pushed away. After glancing at Gu Jinnian's absence, Su Huaiyu came directly to the box.
Then slowly open it.
After half a ring.
A murmur sounded.
"I didn't expect His Royal Highness to even guard against a gentleman."
A sigh sounded.
Su Huaiyu left.
Somewhat lost.
In the mountains and forests, Gu Jinnian was straightforward and picked ten krypton gold fruits in one go.
All of a sudden, ten messages appeared.
[You can use fine jade instead of gold]
This was the first message, which made Gu Jinnian silent. Good guy, you spent a thousand taels of gold, but you tell me I can use high-quality jade instead?
【This is a test】
This is the second message, which should refer to this dossier. Although the answer given is of no use, it is still a bit of a clue.
[Ten days later, the strongest man in the demonic path will enter the territory of Daxia]
This is the third piece of information. How should I put it? It feels somewhat useful, but not very useful.
As for the rest of the news, Gu Jinnian glanced at it and didn't think about anything for the time being. He wanted to see what news there was before talking about it.
[He will not hurt you, as long as you do not refuse his request]
[This man has some brain problems, but you can trust him completely]
[Look carefully, Fairy Yaochi only wears one piece of clothing]
[She has already developed a crush on you. Once you get to know her better, you will be in for a huge surprise]
【Qingyuan Temple of Bailu Mansion】
[One more chapter, you have the vote]
[In three days, you will meet a stunner who keeps surprising you]
[There is another beauty on the way, this bracket is a buy ten get one free bracket]
Information emerges.
Gu Jinnian was completely silent.
Your uncle's.
Of the ten pieces of information, few are serious, they are all nonsense.
Why does the Yaochi Fairy only wear one piece of clothing, and what else will lead to a huge surprise if you get to know it deeply? What else is a surprise? That beauty is on the way?
Don’t say anything in the middle of the story? Are you kidding me?
Messy stuff.
Gu Jinnian was really numb.
He could accept that Su Huaiyu was not serious. This man had been imprisoned for several years and it was logical that his brain was abnormal.
There is no way this ancient tree is serious.
Or just give some information that has no effect at all.
Or it's just some messy news.
Come on.
Ten thousand taels of gold were lost in water.
All the news, only one is somewhat useful, that is, jade can be used instead of gold. After all, the price of fine jade is indeed more expensive than gold.
But if you had known this, why would you sell the jade?
Take a deep breath.
Gu Jinnian also calmed down a little and put aside some useless information. Among them, there were three pieces of information that Gu Jinnian still had to think about seriously.
【This is a test】
【Qingyuan Temple of Bailu Mansion】
[The strongest man in the demonic path will enter Daxia in ten days’ time]
These three pieces of information are still somewhat useful. The first is a test, although Gushu did not explain clearly what the test is.
But one thing I have to say is that this case is definitely not as simple as it seems.
There must be something hidden.
In a sense, my idea is right, and it can be regarded as giving me a direction. One thousand taels of gold is not a loss.
Bailu Mansion Qingyuan Temple, this news is very important. Although I don’t know why Gushu gave me this news, I still have to investigate if necessary.
You can also ask Wang Fugui and the others to go there.
No, it still can't be done. If there is real danger, it will be difficult for them to protect themselves.
Gu Jinnian originally wanted Wang Fugui to go, but now he thought about it, he couldn't because it would be bad if there was danger.
As for the most powerful man in the demonic path entering Daxia, he must keep this in mind.
Normally you should not encounter it.
But Gu Shu also gave a clear answer. If you meet someone, you won't be afraid. As long as you don't reject the other person, you will be fine.
Moreover, the other party will not hurt you, and you can even completely trust the other party.
Three pieces of news, it’s not a big loss if you have to say, there’s still a small profit.
As for who loses, Gu Jinnian doesn't care.
in this way.
Without further ado, Gu Jinnian took the files of several other people and began to read them carefully to see if he could find any other clues.
And so.
In the blink of an eye, two days passed.
November 20th.
During this period, the busiest thing in the Great Xia Dynasty was the Ministry of Rites.
The first thing is to talk about the marriage with the Huns.
Secondly, talented people from all over the world are also going back one after another. The Kong family, Fuluo envoys, and Dajin envoys are leaving together. The time set is May 21st, which is tomorrow.
These two things kept the etiquette department very busy.
When the envoy returns, he must prepare various gifts and ask the Ministry of War to cooperate and send a thousand elite troops to escort him all the way.
This is a national gift.
But the thing that the Ministry of Rites is most concerned about is the affairs of the Huns.
After two days of negotiations, the two parties finally agreed on the twenty-year right to use seven iron mines, plus 10,000 cattle and sheep each, 3,000 fine horses, and countless gems such as pearls and agates as betrothal gifts.
The Great Xia Dynasty was not stingy here, with a lot of gold and silver jewelry, plus two thousand workers of all kinds, including some cooks, doctors and other talents.
Choose from Longxi. After all, Longxi is only 700 miles away from the northwest border. At least you can go back home occasionally.
There are also countless gifts purchased by the royal family.
This is a marriage between the two countries, which is of great significance.
The time was set on the 23rd. The Xiongnu Kingdom prepared for three days, and then set off for the capital. The Xiongnu Prime Minister and the second prince of the Xiongnu Kingdom came to greet the princess in person.
He didn't dare to go beyond any etiquette, and his attitude was very good, which made the Minister of Etiquette breathe a sigh of relief.
There was a lot of discussion in the country, and public resentment arose over this matter.
However, the cooperation of the Huns reduced a lot of pressure on the Ministry of Rites.
As for recruiting people.
There have been a lot of selections in the past two days. Although it is said that I want to find a daughter of a minister at random and call her a princess, I still want to find a woman with outstanding appearance, scholarly family background, and certain talents.
Under these conditions, on November 21st.
The selection was finally completed.
The daughter of the right minister of the Ministry of Rites.
Wang Wanyue.
Only seventeen years old, she is a slim and beautiful child. She comes from a scholarly family. Her father is the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, so she naturally has some talents.
She was chosen not only because she met the conditions, but more importantly, because there was trouble within the court.
At first, the candidate selected by the Ministry of Rites was the daughter of a marquis, but after the incident spread, the marquis went directly to the Ministry of Rites and made a big fuss. He immediately dropped the harsh words and chose his daughter, which caused the Ministry of Rites to turn into chaos.
.
If it were just normal times, the Ministry of Etiquette would really not be afraid of the other party.
But the problem is that this time the Ministry of Rites agreed to the marriage in order to avoid a war.
It was untenable, so I gave in.
The military attaches gathered together and it was definitely not possible to choose someone from the military attache side, so in the end they fell into this group of civilian officials.
But among the civil servants, it was everyone who recommended her, or she just didn't meet the age requirements, so she was not satisfied after choosing and choosing. Finally, it suddenly occurred to me that the daughter of the right minister of the Ministry of Rites met the conditions very well.
The reason why I didn't expect it at first was simple. After all, the department chosen was the Ministry of Rites. How could one of his own people harm his own people?
But I was forced to have no choice but to suffer the loss myself.
After the matter is determined.
That night, there was a lot of crying in the home of the right minister. Wang Jiang, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, was very direct. Even if his daughter threatened to die, Wang Jiang would not show any mercy.
Even Wang Jiang knew that his daughter liked a scholar, so he said directly that if Wang Wanyue didn't marry, he would never let her marry the one she loved, and would even use his power to demote the scholar to the bitter cold.
land.
But if Wang Wanyue gets married, her beloved can be promoted to politics.
At the same time, there were many comments, both soft and hard, and finally Wang Wanyue agreed.
But her mood plummeted, and some of the maids couldn't help crying, feeling sorry for their young lady.
With Wang Wanyue's silence.
The Ministry of Etiquette is also very direct, and even the words have been thought out in case something unexpected happens.
Zhaoyue.
The etiquette department basically started working overnight, making wedding robes, plus various princess accessories.
As for his father, Wang Jiang, he was promoted to a peerage. Although he was not a marquis, he also received the title of Earl of Hening. However, the title still had to wait, but the Ministry of Rites had already decided it, and neither the Ministry of Personnel nor the Prime Minister had much objection.
.
This is also the reason why Wang Jiang is so cruel.
Earl.
If I want to change the military commander, how many enemy troops do I have to kill to get something?
Of course, he is not hard-hearted, but he has no choice. The Ministry of Rites has chosen his own daughter. If he refuses, I'm afraid he will be in even greater trouble. There are benefits to agreeing, but that's all.
If there is a chance in the future, it is the only thing he can do to visit his daughter.
Or ask your wife to visit your daughter more often. When one day you become the Minister of Etiquette, your daughter will not suffer too much injustice.
All in all, everything was decided in one day.
The efficiency of the Etiquette Department was also fully demonstrated.
And with the seal of the Ministry of Rites.
The public controversy instantly became much smaller.
It seems that everything is done, and under the control of the Hanging Deng Division and the Town Office Division, it has indeed become much quieter.
Countless official ladies in Kyoto all breathed a long sigh of relief, and the kinder ones felt a little uncomfortable. After all, although it was not themselves, if it were someone else, they would feel a little more pity.
Today, the Kong family, the Fuluo envoy, and the Dajin envoy also set off.
In the blink of an eye, another two days passed.
As agreed, the Xiongnu Kingdom sent out a large team to welcome the bride. After the cattle, sheep, and horses were handed over at the border, the remaining team numbered more than 2,000 people.
A thousand elite cavalry and a thousand followers formed a mighty and magnificent scene.
The checkpoints are opened all the way from the border, speeding up, and you can rush to Daxia Kyoto in five days.
And inside Daxia Academy.
Gu Jinnian also received a letter from Wang Fugui and others.
Wang Fugui and the others arrived at Bailu Mansion two days ago.
I have also been secretly investigating the matter for the past two days.
But there wasn’t much gained on the first day.
There were some gains on the second day. According to villagers who knew Zhang Ming, Zhang Ming had returned from the army. He had a gentle personality and was a righteous person. He did not like gambling. As for drinking, soldiers in the army would drink some alcohol.
But not to the point of being addicted to alcohol.
So there are some problems.
As for other news, there is nothing.
And until December 25th.
The border of Daxia.
A place in the mountains and forests.
Thousands of cavalry led the way, and seven or eight jade chariots drove slowly behind. There were several big shots sitting inside.
The third prince of Shinra.
The Ten Princesses of Fuso.
The Twelfth Prince of Dajin.
Kong Yu.
The four of them traveled together, planning to visit the Jin Dynasty as guests.
After walking for half a day, we basically reached the land of Daijin. After the handover between the two parties, everything was fine.
But at this moment.
The advancing team suddenly stopped.
The next moment, there was a startling sound.
"Formation."
"Enemy attack."
As the sound rang out, in an instant the soldiers around the jade chariot drew their swords one after another, with solemn expressions on their faces.
Boom boom boom.
Suddenly, the rocks rolled, and huge rocks fell from the two surrounding mountains, hitting the escorts and horses.
Dozens of figures jumped out from both sides, holding scimitars, and went directly towards Daxia's elite soldiers.
Bang bang bang.
As for the front, a figure appeared, wearing a mask and holding a Qingfeng sword. It was like entering a deserted land, facing a thousand iron cavalry, without any fear at all.
Under the shadow of the sword, the people killed fell on their backs.
These are the elite of Daxia.
Except for the strong King Wu, who dares to show off?
"Your Majesty has an order."
"Kill everything."
The next moment, a voice sounded, and murderous intent was revealed in an instant.
But just at this moment.
Darkly.
Dozens of figures jumped out, and Gu Ningya's figure gradually emerged.
Among these figures, there is no shortage of Martial King level experts.
"Not good, the news leaked."
"run."
The masked man's voice sounded.
Seeing the strong King Wu, he didn't say anything nonsense and wanted to leave directly.
"According to His Majesty's decree, no one will be left alive."
"kill."
At this time, Gu Ningya held the steel knife in his hand and said with cold eyes.
The next moment, the nine figures around them disappeared, killing these attackers directly.
There was no intention of leaving him alive at all.
And these elite escorts didn't talk nonsense. The commander directly divided into three teams and began to massacre.
There are thousands of ambushes on both sides of the surrounding area, plus other ambushes, there are only four to five thousand people.
But if there are a few powerful Martial Kings around, it’s not false at all.
In an instant.
A massacre begins.
But in the jade chariot, Kong Yu’s eyes were a little strange——
