Chapter 49

Today's Khitan has been renamed Liao, but the land in the Central Plains is used to call it the old name - Khitan.

The founding of Khitan was decades earlier than that of Zeguo and Daxi, and its background is relatively solid. The upper emperor reformed the official system, divided the officials into south and north, and ruled according to customs.The officials in the north ruled the Khitan people with the old Khitan system, and the officials in the south ruled the Han people with the Han system.Adjust taxes, reward farming and weaving, and develop production.He can be regarded as a wise king, but Yelu Deguang died of illness early and did not set up an heir, and the Yelu family fought for power and throne in a bloody storm...

The current Khitan emperor is Yeluruan, and Yeluruan's throne was obtained by seizing the throne.Yeluruan admired the customs and political system of the Central Plains, and appointed Han people to important positions. This aroused the dissatisfaction of the Khitan nobles, and for this reason he met with them many times.This time, Yeluruan led the army to attack Pingzhou, promising that if you captured Youzhou, the rich and wealthy women in Youzhou would choose at will.

Under such temptations, those soldiers who have not yet married naturally took the lead one by one, hoping that they would be promoted to rank after they made military exploits and won a wife.

The difference from Yeluruan's great interest was the situation of Ze Kingdom. Yun Leng agreed to temporarily cease the war considering the fierceness of the Khitan.Even so, Guan Zanglong was still unconvinced, worried that Yun Leng would turn back on his word, so that the troops fighting Daxi would not be able to withdraw at will, resulting in a shortage of available troops...

Now Zeguo is in a state of trouble. The people in Youzhou prefecture packed up their salutes early and prepared to run south. The soldiers’ morale is not stable and their morale is not good. Once Yeluruan breaks through the gate of Youzhou city, they have no resistance. ability.However, Zeguo's military strength is insufficient, and the number of Youzhou that can support it is less than [-].

Guo Wei has already retired, but now the country is in crisis, Guan Zanglong personally invited Guo Wei here, hoping to find a way to solve this crisis.

Guo Wei did come up with a few ideas, but in the end the only thing that was approved was marriage.

Marriage.

The marriage partner made Guan Zanglong a little embarrassed, there were almost no princes and princesses of the right age, so what kind of marriage should they use.

"Your Majesty, Princess Jinyang's son-in-law has been missing for more than a year, I'm afraid it has already been... Why don't you take this opportunity to marry the princess to Daxi's prince."

With what Guo Wei said, Guan Zanglong naturally focused on Guan Qingyao who was studying the ancient notation behind closed doors.

Shang Zihan disappeared, and his life and death were uncertain.Since the war between Zeguo and Daxi, Guan Zanglong has always been worried about the financial resources of the merchants. Now that there is no one with money, Guan Zanglong is unhappy. He finally came up with such a plan, but he still has to take into account whether the merchants will temporarily Defiance, all failed.

"Your Majesty is worried about merchants."

"The merchant...how can I say that I am a native of Ze country and even a relative of the son-in-law. The son-in-law is missing and his life and death are unknown. It is because the Guan family owes the merchant a life. Now..."

"Your Majesty, those who achieve great things should not stick to trivial matters. Her Royal Highness understands righteousness and will understand your painstaking efforts."

"So... let's do it like this."

Guan Qingyao, who was in the princess mansion, would never have thought that Guan Zanglong would sacrifice her happiness for the country, let alone that her father had almost no words of heart-warming words after he ordered her marriage, and sent someone directly to guard her Sent to Tangzhou, except for the guards, there were only Guo Wei and Chen Zhu in the entourage.

After Guo Wei finished talking about the plan, Guan Qingyao frowned. The marriage represented a good relationship between the two countries. This time, the only person in the entourage was Guo Wei, a counselor, and his sincerity was greatly compromised.

Yun Mu did not return to the imperial court as a teacher, but stayed to rectify the personnel affairs in Tangzhou. After getting the news, he ordered Yunfei to meet him. After all, the person who came was also a princess. Before Daxi was the capital of the country, the courteous treatment was naturally kept simple.

Yunfei took his men and horses to meet him, and after receiving them, he escorted them all the way back to Tangzhou.

After hearing Guo Wei's explanation of his intentions, Yun Mu's face was not very good, but he did not directly refuse the request, but sent someone six hundred miles to expedite the performance, and waited for Yun Leng's reply.

……

When Yun Zangyue found out about this, she was only a little faster than Yun Leng. When she found out about this, Yun Zanyue admitted that she wanted to tear Guan Zanglong apart. This guy seemed to have forgotten the existence of his son-in-law, Shang Zihan. She actually sent Guan Qingyao to marry him in the blink of an eye. Even if he wanted to marry her, he had to marry her. What kind of prince are you looking for!

Yun Zanyue's frantic look made Yeqi unable to look directly at her. Fortunately, his highness was losing his temper and didn't notice Yeqi's actions, otherwise he would be even more annoyed.

Yun Leng is not disgusted with the marriage, but he clearly remembers that this Princess Jinyang seems to be married, and he has never heard that Princess Jinyang's son-in-law is dead or divorced. It seems a bit inappropriate.

Even if it was inappropriate, Yun Leng still ordered the ministers and Yun Gan to perform the ceremony together.

When Yun Gan heard this, he felt that his head was big. It was not good for Guan Zanglong to ask that princess to make a marriage, but it was Guan Qingyao who came. Didn't this force them to turn against their sister?

"Qizuo father, my son heard that Princess Jinyang was married long ago, but the whereabouts of her son-in-law are unknown, and her life and death are uncertain. Guan Zanglong pushed Princess Jinyang out at this time. I am afraid that there is not enough troops in Ze Kingdom to rush to help Youzhou against Khitan. Iron cavalry." Yun Gan tried to divert his father's attention after the corners of his mouth twitched, there is nothing wrong with the marriage between the two countries, and being a relative by marriage, but!It's been this relationship for a long time, and Guan Zanglong didn't need it.Now that foreigners invade, only the common people suffer, and Daxi is not some despicable villain who will take advantage of others. "According to what Erchen sees, the marriage is optional. If Guan Zanglong is not at ease, he can send the protons here, and take them back after defeating the Khitan army."

"Your Majesty Qizuo, what His Highness the Crown Prince said is absolutely true."

"I don't think it's right. This time Ze Guojun's idea of ​​marrying is because I see that Daxi has a strong army..."

"Speak carefully." Yun Gan couldn't help but interrupted after hearing this, "What does Zeguo have to do with my strong military strength in Daxi? It is national morality for the emperor to send troops to resist Khitan's southward march. I can't bear the people being displaced because of this. What is Zeguo fighting for?" We all know the idea.”

"What Qian'er said is very true. How about this? Send a letter of revision to Luoyang, roughly writing about the marriage, but let it go. But to show the sincerity of the country, you can send the prince to come as a hostage. I will definitely send troops to support it. .”

"My son obeys the order."

"The ministers obey the order."

The letter of credence was written by Yun Qian himself and sent out urgently. When it was sent to Tangzhou, Yun Mu handed it over to Guo Wei, who asked Guo Wei to bring it back.

As for Guan Qingyao, she stayed in the prefect of Tangzhou. For this reason, Chenzhu was also indignant, and even scolded Guo Wei for such behavior.

"Why be angry, he is also following orders."

"But the princess..."

"It's okay. Just wait." Guan Qingyao's eyes fell on the book, and she really thought in her heart, whether Yun Zanyue already knew the news.

Chen Zhu pouted, and finally waited on Guan Qingyao silently.

Guo Wei's footwork was not bad, and after waiting for more than ten days, he stood in front of Guan Zanglong and presented Daxi's letter of credence.

When Guan Zanglong finished reading it, his expression was very bad, and he wished to throw out the credential in his hand.

Guo Wei looked at Guan Zanglong suspiciously, wondering why his majesty reacted so strangely. "His Majesty?"

"Take it and see for yourself."

Guo Wei took a look and was sweating profusely. He didn't expect Daxi to do such a thing.

"Your Majesty, I have an idea, I don't know whether to say it or not."

"speak."

"The ambition of the Khitan wolf will be a big hidden danger to our country once we capture Youzhou. Why not send an unfavorable prince as a hostage according to what Daxi said. As for the marriage between the two countries, it is not impossible, let the princess follow The prince goes, and the two of them can take care of each other even if they are in Hangzhou."

"Then let King Sheng go."

"The minister obeys the order."
