Zhi Xuan

Chapter 45

The wedding team from Mo State arrived as scheduled.

The whole team consisted of [-] carts, more than [-] guards and servants, [-] slaves, [-] pairs of Caizhi and [-] sika deer specially hunted for weddings.

The desert country is small and small, relying on domestic salt production, and everyone from the monarch to the clan is very rich.The lives of Chinese and common people are not bad.Although it is difficult for people in other vassal states to have enough to eat, at least they can go to the salt field to find work so that the family can have millet to cook.

The family is not short of money, and Marquis Mo is generous and has prepared a generous dowry for his two younger sisters.Not to mention gold, cloth and grain, but salt alone would cost ten carts per person.

Doing so not only reflects the sincerity of the marriage, but also means supporting the married daughter-in-law.It is true that there are few villains in the desert country, but our family has salt, and if there is salt, there is money.A high-married woman also has her own family, so she can't be bullied if she wants to.

Mohou changed his usual style, and suddenly became so high-profile, which made some people very uncomfortable.There are naturally a lot of jealousy.But under the eyes of Bei'an and Dongliang, no one dared to do anything wrong, let alone do it.At most, say a few sarcastic remarks, even mocking and sarcasm.

Mohou said it doesn't matter.

How can a monarch who can chatter anytime, anywhere care about a few words of sarcasm.When the left ear goes in and the right ear goes out, you don't hear it.The key is to let my sister live well, which is more important than anything else.

Such an approach made Bei'anhou and Dongliang Hougao take a look, and they were both willing to let Mohou take advantage of the situation and return to their in-laws.

It is rainy in Zhaodi in summer, and thunderstorms often continue.

The wedding team made preparations in advance and wrapped the salt cart with straw mats and cloth, leaving no gaps to avoid loss of salt on the cart.The same is true for other vehicles, cloth, silk and food are afraid of rain.

After passing through Zhaodi, there are still a few days away from the northern capital. In order to avoid any mistakes, the whole team is very careful.

After receiving the letter from the Marquis of Bei'an, Gong Zihao deployed military defenses in the territory. No matter whether the Dirong tribe or the bandits dared to show up, he would definitely let him come and go.

As the owner of Zhao Land, when the Mo country's wedding party passes by, he must meet with him to observe the etiquette.

The two parties met in a small town named He, and the wedding envoy came forward to greet him and present the gift that had been prepared long ago.

Zhao Hao ordered someone to accept it, and at the same time sent a gift in return.

The process is not cumbersome, but you must pay attention to every move, including the clothes on Zhao Hao and the wedding envoy, and there must be no mistakes.

Mo Hou Nu sat in the car, opened the door a little, and looked at Zhao Hao ahead.The married girl from the Mo country clan also came over and looked out of the car through the gap, talking in a low voice, her cheeks blushing.

After the meeting, Zhao Hao set off to return to the station, while the wedding team from the Mo country would stay for two days, and continue their journey after resting.

There are so many people in the wedding team, plus hundreds of carts, there is simply no place to live in the small town.Fortunately, with the guards left by Zhao Hao, the team can safely camp outside the city without worrying about being harassed at night.

The wedding car was welcomed into the city, and the son-in-law and three companions stayed at the county doctor's house.

The room is a bit small, the windows and doors are slightly low, the light is dim, and the ventilation is not enough, but it is far better than sleeping in the car.

The maid carefully cleaned the room, spread the straw mat with animal skins, and then covered it with a soft cloth, and then served the maidservant to rest.

After several days of traveling, they were exhausted both physically and mentally. They were finally able to rest, but it was difficult for the girls to fall asleep. They had both expectations of the unknown and a bit of fear.

The three clan girls gathered in one place and talked in a low voice, sometimes laughing.

Mohoumei was curious and asked, "What are you talking about?"

The three girls turned their heads, their faces were all pink, but their eyes were bright, they pushed each other, and then one of them said: "Back to the young lady, we are talking about Gongzi Hao."

"Young Master Hao?"

"Young Zihao looks really good."

Although she has received strict education since she was a child, she is still a teenage girl. It is impossible to hide her emotions all the time, and she will show her lively side when she relaxes occasionally.

"There are rumors from all over the world that Gongzi Hao is brave and good at fighting. He sealed off the frontiers when he was young. He has nothing to lose in battles, big or small. I thought he would be a valiant husband, like a bear and a tiger, but I didn't expect it to be so good-looking."

The girls opened up their chatterboxes, and they all praised Zhao Hao.

"I heard that Gongzi Hao is not married, but unfortunately..." a clan girl said in a low voice.Before she finished speaking, everyone in the room understood what she meant.

"It shouldn't be a pity, it should be a blessing." Seeing the expressions on the faces of several people, Mo Houmei felt a chill in her heart, and immediately interrupted their thoughts.

The three of them looked at each other, a little puzzled.

"Why do you say that, girl?"

Mohoumei sighed, and said seriously: "You only see that Gongzi Hao is good-looking, but you can see that he holds real power? His name is the son of Bei'an, and his power and status are comparable to that of a prince."

Hearing the deep meaning in the words, the clan girls stopped talking and fell into deep thought one after another.

"Our country is rich but does not have a strong army. After all, it is weak in front of a big country. I have no honor and status, and I am still not as good as a daughter of a big country's clan. You have accompanied me here, so I can tell the truth. No matter how good Gongzi Hao is, I can't marry , nor should you think about it."

These words are quite straightforward, leaving no room for half.

At the beginning of the marriage, Mohoumei also thought in her heart how great it would be if her husband was Gongzi Hao.However, the covenant and marriage certificate of Bei'an Kingdom brought back by the pedestrians is the son of the son.

Compared with the loss of his younger sister, Mohou was obviously relieved, even somewhat joyful.

In private, he personally told his younger sister that if the marriage certificate was written on the marriage certificate instead of Gongzi Xun but Gongzi Hao, he was worried that his sister would not live for a year.Even so, you have to be very careful after you get married, and you can't be careless.

"As small as the Mo country, there is still a fight for power and profit. You should know what is going on between the monarch and his wives."

Thinking of what Mohou said, the female son's tone was slightly lowered, not only reminding his concubine, but also warning himself.

"We got married for the sake of marriage and to keep the country. Don't think about what you shouldn't think about, and swallow everything you shouldn't say. I'm telling you these words today, and only this time, and you must remember them all! "

The clan girls quickly sat upright and agreed in unison.

"You have to understand that the son is the son of the Marquis of Bei'an, and there must be a daughter of the Bei'an Kingdom clan in the back house. If you want to be safe, live, and have children, you must be of one mind."

The same words were heard by the clan women before they got married.It was mentioned again suddenly, and it was still said by the son-in-law himself, which was a different feeling.

At this moment, they completely realized that they had left their parents and married into another country.If there is no accident, it is impossible to return to the home where I was born, and it is impossible to see my relatives again in this life.

Sourness, bitterness, and panic came together.

The emotions accumulated for a long time burst out suddenly, the eyes of the girls were all red, and including the young man, they cuddled up to each other and cried into a ball.

They knew in their hearts that they could only be presumptuous this time.

When they set off at dawn, they could no longer cry, they could only laugh, and went to the northern capital with a smile to meet their fate for the rest of their lives.

Having seen the wedding procession in Mo country, Zhao Hao hurried back to the station overnight.

After arriving, Zhao Hao had no time to rest, so he quickly wrote a letter and sent it to the northern capital.

The letter stated the process of meeting with the wedding team and said that everything went well.As for the caravan of Nanyou Country, there is no mention of it for the time being, and the report will only be made after Zhi Xuan escorts them over and interrogates them.

Young Master Xuan, who was far away in Zhidi, was so busy that he kicked the back of his head.

The spoils brought back from the col were counted, and except for the parts that needed to be stored, the rest were divided according to merit and rewarded to hundreds of people who participated in the night attack.

A hundred soldiers assembled and were ordered to escort the members of the caravan, and rushed to Zhaodi together with the knights sent by Zhao Hao.

Seeing the rice, the witch doctor and doctor Sang promised Zhi Xuan that they would give it a try, even though they were not sure about it.It's too late this year, and when the wasteland is opened up next year, they will open up a special field for rice cultivation.

During the busy days, the forest farm sent good news. Ding Bao lived up to his son's entrustment, captured a large number of birds, and was about to send them to the county.

"The ax and saw sent by the young master are very useful, and the giant tree that the three of them hugged can also be felled."

When Ding Bao saw Zhi Xuan, his excitement and excitement were beyond words.

With the tools made by Zhixuan, the logging team's work efficiency has been continuously improved.Especially the saw, which is far better than the stone axe, is extremely convenient to use and is loved by everyone.

Ding Bao first reported to Zhi Xuan about his recent work, and assured him with a pat on his chest that the timber in the forest farm had piled up like a mountain and could be put into use soon, and there would be no shortage of timber in future construction sites.

"Young master, please look!"

After the work report, Ding Bao showed Zhi Xuan the cart he had brought.

The bodywork has been transformed and bound into a three-layer wooden cage.There are partitions between layers, and each layer is divided to form rectangular cages, which contain various birds captured by the logging team.

Zhixuan walked around the cart and found that there were not only jungle chickens and wild ducks he wanted in the cage, but also more than a dozen kinds of birds with bright plumage, and two budgerigars that were a little too big.

What caught his attention the most was not the pair of parrots, but a golden eagle with a damaged wing that was placed alone in the top cage.

"My lord, this eagle fell on the forest farm and was injured by other eagle eagles." Ding Bao said.

It was pure luck to catch this golden eagle.

This golden eagle should have just left the nest and is still very young.When encountering other raptors, their wings were scratched during the battle and they could not fly, so they fell to the forest farm.

After listening to Ding Bao's explanation, Zhi Xuan looked at the golden eagle again, but the latter was not afraid, and also tilted his head to look at him.

Thinking of the wolves harvested earlier, Zhi Xuan's heart skipped a beat.

If wolves can be tamed, golden eagles should be fine too?

Well worth a try.

After some identification, the birds that can be kept are kept, and the ones that cannot be kept are handed over to the waiter for stewing soup, which is used to entertain the doctor Xia and the two old people who have been busy for several months.

When the witch doctor and Sang doctor came to the mansion, the bird meat had already been prepared for cooking.

The golden eagle was removed from the cage and put in a special animal skin bag. Both paws were bound and a rope was tied around the mouth.The two parrots were also kept in a clean cage.

Zhi Xuan was talking to a doctor, asking about the progress of the new town.And told the other party, the weather is hot, and you must pay attention to heatstroke prevention on the construction site.

"Young master, don't worry, the subject must remember!"

After the witch doctor and mulberry doctor saluted and sat down, the waiters filed in and served carefully cooked bird meat.

Different kinds of bird meat were placed in different containers, and there was a tripod in front of Zhi Xuan, which contained stewed and blanched broth, which tasted very delicious, but the meat was a bit hard and not easy to chew.

There was no wine at the banquet, only drinks mixed with honey.Even so, everyone still enjoyed the meal, thanked Zhi Xuan for the food, and were even more delighted with this honor.

The banquet is over, and the guests and hosts enjoy themselves.

The next doctors left, or went to the forest farm, or returned to the construction site.

The witch doctor and Sang doctor stayed, firstly because of the golden eagle and parrot, Zhixuan hoped that the witch doctor could help domesticate them; secondly, Zhixuan intended to raise chickens and ducks on a large scale, which was not suitable in the city, nor on construction sites outside the city.After much deliberation, I can only ask two old people to help and temporarily raise them near the medicine field.

"My lord, this is not appropriate." Dr. Sang frowned.

"One person, two medicine servants, five sheep." Zhi Xuan set out the conditions.

"My lord, I want to take care of the medicine fields." The witch doctor hesitated.

"Ten medicine servants, thirty sheep. There are slaves raising chickens and ducks, and the fermented dung can be used to fertilize the fields." Zhi Xuan continued.

"Okay!" The witch doctor Sang said nothing, and nodded in agreement.

Zhi Xuan looked suspiciously at the two old men, had he been tricked?After thinking about it again, the routine is the routine, as long as the goal can be achieved, it doesn't matter how many times it is done.

The next day, the witch doctor and doctor Sang returned to the medicine field, and the staff assigned by Zhi Xuan followed them.

According to Zhi Xuan's instructions, the chickens and ducks are temporarily free-range, and a fence is erected around the fence, and a rope net is to be pulled on the fence.

Both jungle chicken and wild duck can fly, and their flying ability is quite strong.It's useless to raise the fence to five meters, and you can still fly over with a few flaps of your wings.In this case, the rope net is indispensable.

In addition, jungle chickens and wild ducks should be kept separately.

The difference in food habits is one of them. The most important thing is that Zhixuan discovered that jungle chickens have a fierce temperament, and both roosters and hens are good at fighting.Anyone who doesn't like it, rush up and start fighting. What they are best at is group fights.

Look at that posture, the fighting cocks are all younger brothers.

In contrast, the bigger wild ducks are at a disadvantage, mixing with jungle chickens and being bullied all the time.

"The breeding business has a long way to go, and true knowledge comes from practice."

Seeing the wild chickens flying up and down in the fence and the wild ducks quacking in fright, Zhi Xuan sighed.
