Chapter 2633: Chiyou gets married and becomes the princess of the Southern Kingdom
Chapter 2633: Chi You’s wedding and status as a princess of the Southern Kingdom
After the negotiation between the Chu, Ruan and Yue Three Kingdoms, a treaty was officially signed in Longbian soon. The armistice treaty signed by the three countries was also called the "Longbian Treaty of the Chu, Ruan, and Yue Three Kingdoms" by later generations, or the "Longbian Treaty" for short.
After the Longbian Treaty was signed, it naturally had no effect on the peace between the three countries, but it did allow future generations to learn about cities like Longbian through this period of history.
Longbian, which is the eastern part of Hanoi, Vietnam in later generations.
Later generations also learned that Vietnam in the late Han Dynasty was only a part of China through the signing of the Longbian Treaty.
In order not to anger the Chu State, Ruan Yue did not even dare to move the people in the four counties. He quickly withdrew his troops from the four counties south of the Red River.
The two kings of Ruan and Yue were also worried that after the Chu State took over the four counties, they would tear up the Longbian Treaty and continue to go south to recover the Jiuzhen and Rinan counties. After all, this treaty had no binding force on the Chu State.
Therefore, under Huang Xie's suggestion, after the Ruan and Yue countries withdrew their troops from Jiaozhi, they did not withdraw all their troops back to their own countries, but jointly fortified Wu Gong City.
If the Chu State is not trustworthy, with the defense line of Wu Gong City, it can at least resist for a while and give the two countries time to deploy troops and set up defenses.
Even if Wu Gong City cannot be defended, the battlefield is still in Jiaozhou, not in their country.
When the situation has reached this point, the existence of the Four Nations Allied Forces is no longer necessary.
After the four countries jointly held a grand celebration banquet in Qingmei Port, Nong Yu voluntarily resigned from the position of leader of the Four Nations Alliance.
In order to express their gratitude to Nongyu, King Ruan and King Yue later erected a five-meter-high statue of Nongyu in Qingmei Port to commemorate the glorious deeds of the four-nation alliance to defeat Chu, even though both Ruan and Yue were later destroyed.
, but this statue has been preserved.
Nong Yu resigned as leader of the alliance, and generals such as Han Shizhong, Huang Xie, and Tachibana Daoxue also prepared to return individually, but they were jointly stopped by the two kings of Ruan and Yue.
Ruan Fuying grabbed Han Shizhong's hand and said with tears in his eyes: "General Han, you can't leave. What if the Chu army breaks the agreement if you leave?"
Seeing Ruan Fuying rubbing his nose on his sleeve, Han Shizhong felt extremely disgusted and at the same time felt very speechless.
Listening to your words, you yourself don’t believe that the Chu State will just give up, but you still agree to cede four cities to the Chu State. This is purely gambling with the fate of the country.
Although Han Shizhong was speechless in his heart, he remained as usual on the outside, saying calmly: "If the Chu State does not keep its promise, I will come again to fight for the allies of the two countries."
"Then there's no time." Ruan Fuying said with tears in her eyes.
"Yes, the northern part of Qing Dynasty is thousands of miles away from Annan. If Chu invades, it will take a month for the general to go south, and there is no time." Li Gongyun agreed.
Han Shizhong declined again, but King Ruan Yue refused to let go, so he said helplessly: "Then what do you think we should do?"
"I beg the general to stay in Annan for a while. After the Chu army has completely retreated, it will not be too late to leave."
"Yes, yes, although our country is small, we will definitely provide the best food and wine to entertain you, general."
Ruan Fuying and Li Gongyun sang in harmony, but Han Shizhong was too embarrassed to leave. They could only look to Huang Xie and Nong Yu for help.
Huang Xie, who was implanted as Huang Zu's son, like Han Shizhong, also had a grudge against Liu Xiu for killing his father.
Huang Xie wished that Chu would break the treaty and go south again to fight with Ruan and Yue, so that he could use Ruan and Yue to weaken Chu, so naturally he didn't want to leave just like that.
As for Nongyu, she actually didn't want Han Shizhong to leave, but she didn't want the Three Kingdoms to start war again, but she wanted to invite Han Shizhong to attend her wedding in the South Kingdom.
Nongyu has always been a well-rounded person, and during this period of fighting side by side, she got along well with the generals, so she wanted to invite these comrades to attend her wedding.
After seeing the expressions of Nong Yu and Huang Xie, Han Shizhong could only resist the request of King Ruan Yue to stay temporarily with a look of helplessness.
In the next few days, the two kings of Ruan and Yue took turns to pay tribute to Han Shizhong, sending batch after batch of gold, jewelry, fine wine, and delicacies, and even gave Han Shizhong nearly a hundred female slaves.
The purpose of the two kings of Ruan and Yue was obvious. Even if they had little chance of success, they still wanted to bribe Han Shizhong with heavy profits to keep him in Annan.
At the Jiaozhou stop, Han Shizhong had completely conquered the two kings of Ruan and Yue with his own ability. No one in the Ruan and Yue countries could match his ability to command battles.
However, a genius commander like Han Shizhong was only an ordinary general in Da Qin, not even a deputy governor of a state. This shows how saturated Da Qin's generals are.
Ruan Fuying and Li Gongyun were jealous, so they thought of using inducements to keep Han Shizhong, and implicitly promised that as long as Han Shizhong stayed, the position of general would be his.
Han Shizhong was not dissatisfied with this, after all, the other party recognized his ability by wooing him, but he obviously could not like the poor and backward Ruan Yue Kingdom, and it was impossible to bribe him even if he was given the position of general.
Han Shizhong and Huang Xie both had a grudge against Liu Xiu for killing their father, and they had vowed to kill Liu Xiu to avenge this. However, Ruan and Yue obviously could not help him in revenge. Only the Qin Dynasty in the world could destroy Chu.
strength.
Therefore, Han Shizhong would rather be an ordinary general in the Qin Dynasty than a broken general in a small country in Ruan Yue.
Although Han Shizhong refused the two kings of Ruan and Yue to win over him, he accepted all the gifts they gave him. After all, he had helped them fight for so long, and his contribution was not limited to these gifts.
Of course, although Han Shizhong accepted all the more than 100 female slaves presented by King Ruan Yue, he did not dare to touch any of them.
Han Shizhong's first wife, Liang Hongyu, was a female general in the Women's Army. She had a lot of concubines and sisters behind her, and her connections in the circle of ladies were known as "iron".
Although Liang Hongyu did not object to Han Shizhong taking a concubine, it was obviously impossible for him to agree to let Han Shizhong take a female slave as a concubine, so she could just play outside. If she really took her home, the back house of Han Shizhong's family would be unstable.
Han Shizhong originally had no intention of touching these female slaves. The reason why he accepted them all was because he planned to reward his soldiers when he returned.
As a good general, you must not only consider the food and pay of your soldiers, but also consider marriage leave.
On the other side, after Ma Yuan recaptured the four counties south of the Red River without leaving a single soldier, Li Xiucheng and Cao Shen's reinforcements also entered Jiaozhou.
The two kings of Ruan and Yue were also always paying attention to the movements of this army. After all, if these 37,000 Chu troops went south, it would mean that the Chu State would tear up the alliance, so the Ruan and Yue countries could not help but be nervous.
Ma Yuan and Li Xiucheng did not take the treaty seriously. Naturally, they wanted to regain their lost territory as soon as possible and teach the two small countries of Ruan and Yue an unforgettable lesson.
But just when Li Xiucheng and Cao Shen were about to go south, they were stopped by Liu Xiu from Changsha.
Liu Xiu only ordered Shi Dakai to lead an army of 7,000 troops southward, while the remaining 30,000 troops returned to their respective bases.
The reason why Liu Xiuhui did this is also very simple. Han Shizhong and other Qin generals have not left yet, and the Ruan-Vietnam coalition under their command will be more difficult to deal with. If they start a war directly, even if they can win, the casualties will not be small, and after they leave, they will
The losses will be much smaller.
Anyway, Liu Xiu didn't believe that Han Shizhong and other Qin generals would leave Annan without doing their job.
It is true that Han Shizhong and others did not stay in Annan all the time. They were all invited by Nongyu to the southern country to attend her wedding to Chi You.
The distance between Nanguo and Annan is not that far. Even if Chu breaks the agreement and sends troops to Jiuzhen County, Han Shizhong and others will still be able to return in time.
Chi You naturally welcomed the arrival of Han Shizhong and others. After all, they fought against the Chu army in Jiaozhou and indirectly saved the Southern Kingdom, so Chi You was very grateful to Han Shizhong.
Chi You received Han Shizhong and others with the highest standards, and soon afterwards held a wedding in Kunming and Nongyu with the blessings of the people across the country.
Chi You's injury has not actually healed yet, but he can't wait any longer, and he is so satisfied with Nong Yu that he is afraid that his future beautiful wife will fly away, so he can't wait to marry Nong Yu.
Because Nongyu served as the leader of the Four Kingdoms Alliance, Chi You was full of affection for Nongyu, a woman who was as beautiful as a man. Therefore, when he saw Nongyu at the first sight, he was attracted by her beautiful appearance and gentleness.
The temperament and fell.
Nongyu, a beautiful woman who is well-educated, noble and gentle, and proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, is even rarer than the giant panda in the southern country.
Chi You had a giant panda, and there was more than one, but he searched all over the southern country and couldn't find anyone who could match Nong Yu's beauty.
What? You mean Zhu Rong?
In Chi You's mind, his younger sister Zhu Rong was just a tomboy, with no trace of femininity in her body. Only a woman like Nong Yu was called that woman.
Chi You originally thought that the Qin Dynasty would only send a good-looking clan girl to deal with this marriage, but he did not expect that the person sent would be a peerless beauty like Nong Yu.
Anyway, if Chi You had such a beautiful sister, he would definitely not marry her thousands of miles away. Instead, she would marry an important minister under her to win people's hearts.
Chi You felt that Nong Yu had aggrieved her status by marrying him, but he didn't know that without him and this alliance, Nong Yu would never have become the princess of Qin.
Chi You was satisfied with Nong Yu, and Nong Yu was also satisfied with Chi You.
Nongyu had seen Chi You's portrait before, but after seeing the real person, he realized that the portrait only showed 20-30% of Chi You's temperament. The real person was far more powerful and domineering than the portrait.
Therefore, even if Chi You is not the elegant type that Nong Yu likes, he still has a good impression of Chi You. After all, marrying such a hero with both ability and strength is something that not many women in the world can ask for.
Originally, Chi You was not prepared to hold a grand wedding, but now that he has gradually fallen in love with Nongyu, he naturally wanted to give his future queen a grand wedding.
It's hard for a hero to be a beauty, this sentence says too much.
Those heroes who didn't fall into the trap may just have not met the type they like. As long as the type is chosen correctly, even Chi You will fall.
At this time, Chi You had long forgotten what he said before about being wary of Da Qin's marriage partner, and instead indulged in Nong Yu's gentle smile.
Of course, Chi You's fall was only temporary. He was not the kind of king who would interfere with state affairs because of his beauty.
After the news spread that Chi You of the Southern Kingdom had married the Princess of Da Qin, the whole country in the Southern Kingdom was full of joy. Many people even came to Kunming to watch the wedding of Chi You and Nong Yu and to admire the appearance of the Princess of Da Qin.
When Chi You held Nong Yu's hand, and the two stood on the carriage together and toured Kunming together, the people who saw Nong Yu's appearance along the way were amazed.
This queen, who is as beautiful as a fairy and has an equally noble status, really can't find any faults. When she becomes the queen of their southern country, she has completely set herself up for it.
And Nongyu's dowry convoy, which could not be seen, frightened the eyes of countless people in the southern country, and fully let the people in the southern country see what it means to be a heavenly country and what it means to be rich and wealthy.
At the same time, the princess of the Southern Kingdom, who took a boat to Da Qin for marriage, also arrived in Luoyang successfully.
After Ying Hao learned the news, after hesitating for a while, he decided to go and greet him in person. After all, the other party represented the entire southern country. Even if he didn't look at the monk's face, he still had to look at the Buddha's face.
Compared with the great grandeur of the princess of Da Qin when she got married, the princess of the Southern Kingdom was much poorer when she got married. The dowry was only thirty carts, and there were only a dozen servants as a dowry, which was not even as good as the married women of some big families in the Central Plains.
.
Ying Hao knew that the Southern Kingdom was barren, and the war with the Shu Kingdom had basically wiped out his family's wealth. He could not give the Southern Princess a thick dowry, and he did not have these things in the first place.
But when Ying Hao opened the car curtain and saw the Princess of Nanguo in the car, he was stunned because the marriage partner sent by Nanguo this time really surprised him.
