The wind in Lingzhou is very strong.
Guo Shao stayed here and felt that the most intuitive thing was that the houses in the northwest were generally lower than those in the Central Plains. I don’t know whether it was because of the construction technology and materials, or whether buildings that were too tall were easily sealed and blown down.
The accompanying officials held banquets to entertain the arrival of leaders of all races, but Guo Shao never met them in person.
He was in a room, looking at the map hanging on the wall repeatedly.He held a candle in his hand, and the wind poured in through the gaps in the doors and windows, making the candle sway, and the light in the low house was sometimes bright and sometimes dark.
Just then, the door creaked and the wind suddenly became stronger.Guo Shao quickly covered the direction of the coming wind with his big palm.
Wei Renpu's voice said: Your Majesty, I went to the banquet, the situation is very good.
Guo Shao didn't look back: At this time, the Tubo tribes were very scattered and Buddhism was promoted, so the threat was not great; the Xizhou Uighurs and Ganzhou Uighurs threatened the Guiyi Army at most.Dangxiang is the most important.
Wei Renpu said: Your Majesty said very well. I have also learned from many sources that the people of Dangxiang are soldiers and regard martial arts as their priority. They are just nominal offerings to our dynasty, and they really cannot be taken lightly.
The information Guo Shao knew now was consistent with the memory of Xixia Kingdom in his mind.
He had forgotten the specific historical knowledge he learned in the textbooks, and could not remember when the Western Xia Kingdom was founded, probably in the Northern Song Dynasty... Anyway, this country is very difficult to deal with, and it has been established for hundreds of years.
Now Guo Shao is thinking that Dangxiang’s recent founding of the country is not a very appropriate time... But he is afraid that after the war with Liao will fall into a stalemate in the future, the northwest will take advantage of the situation to invade!
At this time, Guo Shao’s biggest dream is to defeat the Liao Kingdom and recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun!He has to avoid interference from various adverse factors in advance.
Guo Shao said nothing for a long time.
Wei Renpu said: As long as the Lingzhou mutual market is smooth and the Hexi trade routes are smooth, our energy source will continue to obtain war horses.Everyone seeks profit, and there must be some middle-aged merchants who take horses to buy and sell them with us. If there are fewer war horses, it is just that the profits they give are not big enough...
Guo Shao suddenly changed the topic: Does Li Yiyin really have a daughter named Li Yueji?
Wei Renpu hurriedly said: This is indeed the case.I have asked Dangxiang people that this woman is quite famous, and many Dangxiang people have heard of her reputation... However, a barbarian woman has a strange appearance and is not educated and unreasonable. What is the real person like?
Guo Shao said: It doesn’t matter what kind of person he is, as long as she is indeed the daughter of Li Yiyin.
Wei Renpu said: Yes, if you use your biological daughter to marry, Dangxiang people are still very sincere... there will be no less dowry.I remember that when the Han and Tang dynasties were married to all ethnic groups, there were few real princesses, but the Central Plains must be sincere and harmonious before they can get married.
Guo Shao nodded in agreement and said casually: If Li Yiyin wants to rebel, he will not have to send his daughter over to take risks.
In this era, there is no popular way to sign peace contracts, and the civilized order cannot reach that level; the alliance is more direct and primitive, which is marriage.
Guo Shao had no good impression of the Han and Tang dynasties and the national policies of the Han and Tang dynasties... However, in the eyes of people at that time, marriage was a good means, and sacrificing a woman for peace was a perfect cost; and the dynasty also had some ideas that women could have an impact that was beneficial to the country in the courts of other countries.
A few days later, Guo Shao received a report that Dangxiang sent a nobleman Wuzang to meet with him.Guo Shao immediately met this person, mainly because of the importance of etiquette, and then sent Wei Renpu to discuss with him personally.
As a matchmaker, Wu Zang came to discuss the marriage matter... This kind of marriage is different from the folk marriage. Etiquette is not the most important thing, the important thing is bargaining!
The Wuzang family hoped that the court could use the Dui and Lin states as betrothal gifts, and also wanted a thousand new pairs of Zhou army; replaced Feng Jiye, the violent governor of Lingzhou, to ensure harmonious coexistence, and no longer burned, killed, and plundered the Dangxiang tribes... and promised to pretend that they were two thousand war horses, and allowed Dangxiang people in several states such as Xiazhou to go to Lingzhou for trading; to pay tribute to the tribute to the Great Zhou.
Wei Renpu readily agreed to the last condition (the replacement of Feng Jiye was originally within the emperor's plan).
Then he directly refused to cedify the two states. Wei Renpu's reason was: These two pieces of land were impossible to discuss. Linzhou and Fuzhou were the hometowns of the Zhe family and the Yang family, the generals of the Zhou Dynasty. If the court cut them to Dangxiang's jurisdiction, where would the two be placed?
After saying that, Wei Renpu comforted him again, saying that the court would increase the weight of the betrothal gifts to compensate the party.
As for the armor, Wei Renpu kept it a secret because it was not easy to directly reject two of the three conditions of Dangxiangren... would seem insincere.
Wei Renpu said: Tubo and Ganzhou Uighurs also hope that the Great Zhou Dynasty would trade armor, and they were willing to trade with good war horses.
As expected, Wu Zang immediately dissuaded: Dingnan Army was a minister of the court and obeyed the emperor's edict; while the Tubo and Uighurs did not accept the imperial edict, the court should not grant military armor to outsiders.
Wei Renpu knew the meaning of Wuzang. In the southeastern area of the Hexi Corridor, the Tubo people and some Dangxiang tribes were competing for territory, and the Ganzhou Uighurs also had alliances with the Tubo people. Using armor to trade with the Tubo people is extremely unfavorable to the Dangxiang tribe.
Wei Renpu said: The government hopes to live in harmony with the northwest tribes to avoid war.If the armor was granted to Xiazhou, I was afraid that the Tubo and other tribes would think that the court was unfair... At this time, the officials were discussing with the ministers, or selling the armor to all tribes, or not.As the situation is forced, the emperor told the King of Xiping that he would understand the difficulties of the official family.
I don't want to hide it, obviously not satisfied with the betrothal gift.
Wei Renpu quickly went to see Guo Shao.
Guo Shao said: Don’t talk about it!However, although Linzhou and Prefecture are deserted, their terrain is important. There is no need to discuss this, and they will definitely not be cedeed... You can promise that there is no Zang family. According to the ritual system of the dynasty, I should have a last four ladies, and there are only three ladies so far; if Li Yue'e married to the royal family, I will give her the virtuous concubine.
Wei Renpu couldn't help but say: Your Majesty's concubine has a high status... Will Dangxiang's woman be the imperial concubine also have something to do with the government?
Guo Shao said: She is a Dangxiang woman who is not familiar with the place in Tokyo. What can she do?Besides, giving status is better than severing a place that is more important.
Wei Renpu nodded and said: Your Majesty is extremely true.
...Wei Renpu met with the Mozang again and told him about new conditions.
He also persuaded Wuzhan: The establishment of the two prefectures and Lin states was not to deal with the Dingnan army, but to guard against the Liao Kingdom.This place is related to the safety of Hedong, and the government dare not give it to others at will.
Wuzang asked: Your Majesty promised to be named the princess as a virtuous concubine?Can you give me a book of imperial edicts first?
Wei Renpu understood that Wu Zang really valued the status of Dangxiang women, and said immediately: As long as the negotiation is completed, there should be no problem.
Wei Renpu was also a little confused. The status of the harem should be of no use, but he was afraid that the Dangxiang woman would really be favored, which would really affect the national policy.
Guo Shao stayed here and felt that the most intuitive thing was that the houses in the northwest were generally lower than those in the Central Plains. I don’t know whether it was because of the construction technology and materials, or whether buildings that were too tall were easily sealed and blown down.
