The White Wolf King killed Qi Fushan and did not delay in Yelang Gorge. He set out to return to White Wolf City that night.
Most of the eighteen prisoners escorted here were merchants from the Tang Dynasty, and the remaining few were from the Western Regions.
Except for Shopkeeper Bai, who knew it well, everyone else thought that this trip would lead to death. Who knew that they could escape from death? Everyone who survived the disaster felt that they had saved their lives.
Several people from the Western Regions were released and left. Yu Wen Chengchao didn't care what crime they committed and were imprisoned in the White Wolf City prison. However, they were selected this time. Even if these people were more likely to die, they were given some food.
He Shui, the way to escape from now on will depend on them.
However, most of the Tang merchants rescued from the dungeon were in extremely poor physical and mental condition and were extremely weak.
Yelang Gorge is actually closer to Xifeng Castle. After some discussion, Yuwen Chengchao finally decided to secondment ten Wutuo cavalry from the White Wolf King, led by Dapeng, to temporarily send those Tang merchants to Xifeng Castle to recuperate.
, the rest of the people went to White Wolf City with the White Wolf King.
Tang Rong originally wanted to follow Shopkeeper Bai to Xifeng Castle, but King White Wolf felt very guilty because Shopkeeper Bai's legs were crippled, and insisted on letting Shopkeeper Bai go to White Wolf City together. Naturally, he wanted to make some compensation to Shopkeeper Bai.
.
The White Wolf King was so insistent that Shopkeeper Bai couldn't refuse, so he could only agree to follow him to White Wolf City.
Yuwen Chengchao knew very well that since Qi Fushan was dead, the White Wolf tribe would still be ruled by the White Wolf King. Tang merchants would be escorted to Xifeng Castle by wolf guards, and Burke from Xifeng Castle would only entertain them wholeheartedly.
Even though Nur Chijia was once a Qifushan, after learning about Qifushan's death, he would quickly fall to the White Wolf King.
Many businessmen from the Tang Dynasty were tortured in dungeons and naturally could not go far. They had no choice but to take prison cars to Xifeng Castle.
After sending Dapeng and his party away, the White Wolf King headed towards White Wolf City.
Of course, Qin Xiao had no chance to continue riding in that luxurious carriage. Shopkeeper Bai's legs were disabled and he was unable to ride a horse. The carriage was naturally left to Shopkeeper Bai, and Tang Rong naturally took care of him in the car.
Qin Xiao is still riding his Black Overlord.
When going from Xifeng Castle to White Wolf City, although Qin Xiao took a carriage, Black Overlord followed him all the time. During this trip to Yelang Gorge, Qin Xiao still took it with him. For Qin Xiao, Black Overlord was already his greatest wealth.
, of course he couldn't let it leave him.
The White Wolf King has been growing stronger since he was a child. Although he is now nearly sixty years old, he is still an expert in equestrian skills.
"Brother Wang, you are really good." Following Qin Xiao, Fat Fish said with a smile: "After you left, the eldest son has been worried, lest Qi Fushan would see your flaws, but everyone knows that you are extremely clever.
, it will definitely succeed.”
Qin Xiao smiled slightly, thinking that if he had lived in the market for many years, served the jailers in Jiazi Prison, talked to people and ghosts, and practiced good eloquence, he might not be able to win the trust of Qin Fushan this time.
.
If it were him before entering Jiazi Prison, Qin Xiao knew that Qi Fushan would definitely find his flaws.
The night wind howls.
"What I promised you has been done." Yuwen Chengchao suddenly said.
Qin Xiao turned his head.
"I have given Hanizi freedom." Yuwen Cheng said: "And I have given her a sum of money that is enough to make her food and clothing comfortable. There are several businessmen from the Jingjue Kingdom in Xifeng Castle, and they have relations with us.
They should be trustworthy through trade. I entrust Hanizi to them. When they return to their country, they will take Hanizi with them."
Qin Xiao immediately cupped his hands and said, "Master, thank you very much."
"Compared with what you have done for me, what I have done for you is really too little." Yuwen Chengchao sighed: "Brother Wang, you ventured into White Wolf City and only asked me for the freedom of a dancer.
If you have mercy, I am not as good as you."
Qin Xiao touched his head and said with a smile: "Maybe I think she is good-looking and don't want her to be miserable for the rest of her life."
"This is compassion." Yu Wen Chengchao smiled and said, "But of course it's not because of how she looks. If you were a lustful person, she would no longer be a pure woman." Then he sighed: "That's fine, that's fine.
It can be said that with your help, I have accumulated some kindness."
Qin Xiaodao: "Actually, the eldest son is a good person, and his virtue is not bad."
"Good person?" Yu Wen Chengchao smiled and said: "It depends on how you say it. In your eyes, I may be a good person, but in the eyes of some people, I am just a villain who is going to hell.
"
Qin Xiao was thoughtful and finally asked: "My eldest son, will this Tangren city be rebuilt?"
"It took White Wolf King many years to build Tangren City. It can't be built overnight." Yuwen Chengchao said: "When I go to White Wolf City this time, I also want to talk to White Wolf King on behalf of Xiling about the future.
Things. The White Wolf King will probably rebuild Tangren City, but after this incident, trade will definitely be affected. I am afraid that many merchants will not dare to come here." After a pause, he said: "We must attract merchants to continue to trade.
, the White Wolf King will naturally want to make some concessions, such as reducing taxes on merchants, etc. Naturally, these matters must be discussed in detail with the White Wolf King."
Qin Xiao looked back at the carriage and then said: "Shopkeeper Bai...?"
"When we go back, Shopkeeper Bai will naturally go back to Xiling with us." Yuwen Chengchao said: "After we go back, we will find a famous doctor and heal Shopkeeper Bai's leg no matter what. As for the business here, when the time comes my father
Someone else will be sent here."
Qin Xiao thought that if shopkeeper Bai went back, he didn't know if Tang Rong would also return to Xiling.
However, Qin Xiao also knew in his heart that once Tangren City was rebuilt, the Yuwen family would never give up the trade here. Firstly, the trade was profitable, and secondly, they also had eyes and ears on Wutuo, so they could know where Wutuo was at any time.
Movement on the side.
To establish a foothold in Wutuo, or even build personal connections, is not something that can be accomplished overnight, and it requires a lot of manpower and material resources.
The most important thing is that the center of this network is Shopkeeper Bai.
If Shopkeeper Bai leaves, it will not be easy to weave a new network in Wutuo.
Tang Rong is Shopkeeper Bai's adopted daughter and a confidant. Qin Xiao knows very well that if Shopkeeper Bai really leaves, the only person who can replace Shopkeeper Bai is Tang Rong.
Tang Rong is well aware of the situation here. As Shopkeeper Bai's most trusted adopted daughter, Tang Rong is also involved in many secret matters. Only Tang Rong can integrate the Yuwen family's network in Wutuo in a short period of time.
.
"Then will Tang Rong also return to Xiling?" Qin Xiao was silent for a while and finally asked.
Yu Wencheng glanced at Qin Xiao, then looked back at the carriage. The carriage was guarded by Wutuo cavalry and was still far away from the front. He said softly: "Do you know the origin of Tang Rong?"
Qin Xiao asked back: "Does the eldest son know?"
Yu Wen Chengchao shook his head: "Shopkeeper Bai's actions in Wutuo have always been reported directly to father and will not come into contact with us. Moreover, he has absolute freedom in his actions here. Whoever he uses is all decided by Bai.
The shopkeeper will decide." He paused and whispered: "Before the Wutuo Rebellion, shopkeeper Bai was already active in Wutuo. During the Wutuo Rebellion sixteen years ago, shopkeeper Bai was the first to report to his father that the Wutuo people had something to do.
The action of advancing.”
"Then Tang Rong appeared after the Wutuo Rebellion?"
"After the Wutuo Rebellion, although the trade was interrupted, the two parties still communicated with each other privately." Yuwen Chengchao said: "Shopkeeper Bai was well-connected in Wutuo. At that time, King White Wolf repeatedly proposed to the Tang Dynasty to resume trade.
The court was still hesitant. It was Shopkeeper Bai who found out that King White Wolf was indeed sincere in resuming trade, so his father, together with the other two princes, submitted a letter to the court. Only then did the sage issue an edict to reopen trade. King White Wolf built Tangren City, and the first
A group of merchants settled in Tangren City, including Shopkeeper Bai. It was also at that time that we learned that he had adopted an adopted daughter, but we didn't inquire too much."
Qin Xiao said: "So, Tang Rong has been following Shopkeeper Bai when she was more than ten years old?"
"That's right." Yuwen Chengchao looked at Qin Xiao and suddenly smiled: "You care so much about Tang Rong, do you like her?"
Qin Xiao's face heats up, thinking that it's hard to tell you these private things, so he just chuckles.
"Although there is a slight age difference...!" Yuwen Chengchao pondered for a moment, then said: "But she can be considered one of our own, and her appearance is also very outstanding. If you really like it, I can tell Shopkeeper Bai
.As far as I know, Tang Rong is not married yet, and you have reached the age of getting married. If I step in, Shopkeeper Bai should give me this face, how about I act as your matchmaker?"
Qin Xiao didn't expect Yuwen Chengchao to be so straightforward.
However, he knew very well that Tang Rong was a person with her own ideas. If Yuwen Chengchao came forward, shopkeeper Bai would not fail to give him face, and he would definitely persuade Tang Rong. This would put great pressure on Tang Rong.
After all, Shopkeeper Bai brought up the marriage in person, so even if Tang Rong didn't want to, she couldn't go against Shopkeeper Bai's wishes.
If Tang Rong knew that she was the one who negotiated the marriage through Yuwen Chengchao, it would probably make Tang Rong feel uncomfortable.
Qin Xiao knew in his heart that even if he really married Tang Rong one day, it would not need to go through the hands of others. If he and Tang Rong were destined, they would eventually be together. If they were not destined to be destined, there was no need to force it.
Qin Xiao is not a reckless person.
He had a deep admiration for Tang Rong, but because of the cold illness, he was very confused about Tang Rong's life experience. Before he knew Tang Rong's life experience, he felt that it was inappropriate to be with Tang Rong at this time.
"Thank you, eldest son, but I still have to handle this matter myself." Qin Xiao thanked him.
Yuwen Chengchao nodded with a smile and said: "The matchmaker's words are also for the girls in the boudoir. Tang Rong has been with Shopkeeper Bai for many years. She is shrewd and capable. She is definitely not comparable to those girls in the boudoir. If the matchmaker's words are used to promote this matter, it will seem inferior.
"You are extremely intelligent and eloquent. Given time, you will be able to win Tang Rong's heart." He looked up at the night sky and murmured: "I am worried about Brother Nalusheng now."
