Bend Over [ 折腰 ] - Chapter 108

[Chapter 107 26]

From the first day that Marquis Wei Shao of Yan became the new lord of Hezhou, Yuan Wang, the leader of Beihe, began to pay attention to him.

Not only did this person take over the Chen family for decades, but Yuan Wang knew that the next move of this Han person would also affect the fate of all these Qiang people living in Huangshui, including their own people.

Yuan Wang had heard something about the actions of the new lord of this and state. In recent years, this great northern warlord seems to be not much different from Chen Xiang, but Yuan Wang has always had no illusions about the Han people.

Decades ago, Li Gong, a lieutenant of the Qiang Dynasty, was an exception. But Li Gong was not a warlord who really held the power of life and death. Moreover, Li Gong also died in the end from the exclusion and suppression of these warlords.

Therefore, last year, although he also learned for the first time that Wei Shao had the intention of appeasing the Qiang people, he did not believe it and always maintained a cautious attitude. He did not unite with Yao Dangqiang, nor did he accept Wei Shao’s solicitation.

Until now, Gongsun Yang, as Wei Shao’s emissary, had been sent to his territory.

He was a little surprised by this.

Gongsun Yang is a very charismatic person, polite and elegant, and his eloquence is extraordinary. He talks to people, never aggressively exerts coercion, but like a babbling spring, telling the heart, unconsciously, he can make the other party accept his point of view, and then be satisfied.

It has been many days since the Gongsun sheep arrived here.

Yuan Wang was gradually moved by him.

He had not personally seen Wei Shao, and all the impressions of this famous northern warlord had previously come from hearsay.

Yuan Wang had heard of one of the things he had done.

It is said that in his early years, he killed his father’s enemy Ling Chi because of the war, and after the death of a thousand knives, he still did not understand the hatred and chopped it into mud.

Although most of the rumors are exaggerated, it is said that the weight of this person’s hostility can be seen, which makes people shudder.

This was actually one of the reasons why he was worried about Wei Shao’s solicitation last year.

What is the difference between such a person full of hostility and Chen Xiangzhi and the like?

But these days, he really felt the personality charm of Gongsun Yang. It was like seeing Li Gong, who was deeply respected by the Qiang people.

And then, along with it, it slowly eliminated some of the previous jealousy of Wei Shao.

Especially last night, he talked with Gongsun Yang again. After returning home, he consulted with several elders of the clan.

Although there were still hesitant voices among the elders, Yuan Wang made up his mind and decided to join him.

Unexpectedly, in the morning, the emissary of Diao Mo suddenly came and conveyed to him a bad news that made him almost heartbreak after hearing it.

His only grandson, who disappeared half a year ago, was first taken captive by the Han Chinese to Bengyang and sold as slaves, and then fell into the hands of Chen Xiang’s son, and is now expected to be killed.

The Messenger then conveyed a letter from Diao Mo. In the letter, Diao Mo claimed that Feng Zhao Wei Shao was a vicious wolf. Feng Zhao befriended the Qiang people hao clan in order to buy and drive the Qiang soldiers to fight for their lives. As for Wei Shao, he was even more ambitious, not enough to believe. Strongly advise Yuan Wang not to believe the promises of the Han people. He said that although he now had contacts with Feng Zhao, he was taking advantage of the contradiction between Feng Zhao and Wei Shao to regain the land in Shangjun that had been inhabited by the Qiang people for generations but was now occupied by the Han.

When He was a child, his father was forced to send him as a hostage to Hezhou and was imprisoned for several years before he was released and returned to his hometown in exchange for a large amount of money, cattle and horses. Eagle Mo has great ambitions and is brave and resolute, and Yuan Wang has always regarded him as a son and nephew. In the morning, I heard the news of my grandson who had been missing for half a year and was almost worried about every day, and the words were convincing, how unbelieving, sad and angry, and fainted on the spot.

The only beloved grandson was robbed by the Han and died in Han China!

After waking up, although Yuan Wang was not like the people around him, he was angry and hated that he could not kill Gongsun Yang and completely break with the Han people, but no matter what, he could not continue to negotiate with him, so he changed his face and wanted to expel him.

Unexpectedly, the peak circuit turned to willows and flowers, and this morning the grandson who thought he was dead actually appeared in front of him alive again. Knowing that he was actually rescued by Lady Wei Shao, sending someone to escort him all the way home, great sorrow turned into great joy, and after his mood was slightly settled, he remembered something again, and couldn’t help but ask Shengye whether Lady Wei Shao wanted him to come back and persuade him to return. He didn’t want to know it, but he didn’t know it, saying that before madame sent him away, he didn’t mention half a sentence in front of him, and he didn’t know anything.

He also told his grandfather that he had experienced this life and death, and although he personally tasted the Han people’s abuse of the Qiang people, he also knew that there were also many good and wise people among the Han people. Just like the Qiang people, the good and the bad are uneven, and they are all in the war, there are defending the homeland, and there are also Kouluo counties, which cannot be generalized in a partial way.

Yuan Wang was surprised, and did not hesitate any longer, so he hurriedly returned and expressed his intention to sign a treaty to Gongsun Yang.

Gongsun Yang actually didn’t react to what was going on, and how it involved the female monarch again. But since Yuan Wang had changed his mind and he couldn’t ask for it, was there any reason why he shouldn’t? Accept it now. Yuan Wang went out of the tent and announced to the surrounding tribesmen that the tribe would make an alliance with The Marquis of Yan, and from then on the army was suspended.

Gongsun Yang also proclaimed the Law of the Emperor.

Yuan Wang held the leader’s scepter for decades, and his prestige was extremely high, and he was deeply loved by his people. Besides, who doesn’t want to live a peaceful and peaceful life? Hearing him announce the news, everyone cheered. At present, the two parties signed a bloody treaty in front of the altar, and after the ceremony, they slaughtered sheep and cattle, feasted on a feast, and sang and danced, and the lively scene was no less than that of the Qiang calendar year.

Gongsun Yang got out, looked for an empty space, and looked for Jia Kai to ask the truth.

Jia Kai opened his mouth and said, “Ask the military master to speak for me in front of the prince!” Otherwise I have no face to see the face of the prince again! Gongsun

Yang was not clear about the situation, and when he came out like this, he was even more confused. “What the hell happened?” How could a princess have a life-saving grace for the grandson of the patriarch? What do you mean by that? Jia Kai

explained the course of events and finally said, “Nothing else, I am willing to take the responsibility of the prince, and I will only blame it.” Only because of my negligence, I released Chen Rui back to Jinyang, and he used an underwater secret passage he knew before to sneak into the office in the middle of the night, intending to kidnap the female jun…”

Gongsun Yang’s scalp was numb, and a layer of sweat hair was erected on the back of his neck: “Is there something wrong with the female jun?” Jia Kai

hurriedly shook his head: “Fortunately, nothing happened.” Chen Rui was also shot dead on the spot. Gongsun Yang was

still not at ease and asked again and again. In the end, I learned that the lady was not in any serious trouble, but she was frightened and fell ill. Fortunately, before Jia Kai set off, her spirit had recovered as before, and she slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

……

The prince’s attitude toward the daughter of the Qiao family who married him had changed so much that no one knew better than Gongsun Yang in the past year or so.

Gongsun Yang remembered that at the beginning, the prince was unwilling to marry, or he was instructed by Lady Xu to talk about evil next to him, and finally he finally nodded his head.

After the wedding night, he sent Qiao Nu away, and at that time, he was not even willing to send her out of the city, and it was his own effort that he reluctantly sent her out of Xinyang.

I still remember the scene. Who knew that just over a year had passed, and the current prince had become a surprise to Gongsun Yang.

It was a real surprise.

Not long ago, Junhou was injured, only three days had passed, and the others had just gone down to the ground to walk, and they were worried about returning to Jinyang.

With his body at that time, it was naturally not suitable for long-distance travel. At first, Gongsun Yang continued as usual, persuading him to dispel his idea.

The first time, the prince was successfully persuaded by him, and finally dispelled his thoughtsHead. But Gongsun Yang could see that he had agreed very reluctantly.

Moreover, although the prince did not say anything on his lips, from his words, Gongsun Yang clearly heard it, so he was so anxious to return to Jinyang, probably to meet his female monarch who had already arrived in Jinyang.

Of course, Gongsun Yang pretended not to know.
