Chapter 854: Noble Seed
The first day of August is the day planned for the tribal leaders to congratulate Dai Gong.
The matter was rushed, not all the people came, and all kinds of things were not complete, so that officials from the Taichang and Honglu departments of Jin Dynasty, who jointly organized the ceremony, complained repeatedly.
However, the ceremony process was completed as designed.
It is similar to the gift of congratulations in the Central Plains. The core is that tribes, nobles and nobles line up their seats, enter the court in batches, say some words and present gifts.
After the congratulations are over, everyone is given a banquet.
This banquet is very prairie style again. The bonfire is lit, the barbecue is made, the wine is drunk, there are also prairie girls dancing and strong men wrestling. The overall style is mixed.
But this is not the key. The core is to determine the status of king and minister. That is to say, from now on, the Duke is their monarch and must be loyal and cannot rebel.
After the banquet, there will be a sacrifice to heaven in the western suburbs on the second day of August.
Shao Xun was not a proxy. He set up a tent far away and was guarded by his own soldiers. While drinking tea, he listened to the reports from the officials and soldiers coming and going.
There are still seven wooden carvings on the altar, representing the seven brother tribes besides the Tuoba clan that continue the Tuoba bloodline.
This group of people is really boring. The ten surnames of Tuoba are also divided into high and low. The tribe inherited by Tuoba Lin's uncle and brothers does not have as high a status as the other eight tribes.
But those present today are Tuoba tribe, Pu tribe, Baba tribe (Changsun tribe), Qihai tribe, and Daxi tribe - there is also a Tuoba tribe over Tuoba Yihuai, and there are casualties in this tribe , a group of people were captured, and only two points were left.
The Dugu, Feng, Zhai, Poliuhan, Buliugu and other tribes also have a large number of people, plus other wealthy tribes, etc., which together far exceed the core tribe of Tuoba.
The Wang family, mother and son have different backgrounds in the country.
"What do the nobles think of Taichang and Honglu officials?" Shao Xun asked, calling to Liu Bai, who came in to communicate.
"Some people are dissatisfied and think it is too troublesome and not in line with Xianbei tradition." Liu Bai replied: "But the officials of the court and some powerful people and ministers recognized it and thought that it was solemn, orderly, elegant and noble, and it was better than before. "
"It's not easy to shave your head." Shao Xun put down the tea bowl and said with a smile: "I have been talking about it a few days ago, but I finally didn't let this Daiguo fall apart. ”
Actually, they dispersed slightly, mainly because some tribes north of Yinshan Mountain ran away and defected to Tuoba Yihuai.
They would rather accept the rule of the more ignorant and barbaric Helan Aitou than bow down to Tuoba Shiyiqian, the puppet in their eyes.
If you don't agree with each other, just leave. Maybe these tribes are originally ignorant. They were attracted by the identity of the eldest son of Shi Yi Jian. They found that there were many things that they couldn't accept, so they left. It was normal.
"What did they discuss in private?" Shao Xun asked again.
Liu Bai was a little embarrassed and said: "They are talking nonsense."
Shao Xun laughed, waved his hand and said: "Go ahead and continue to inquire."
Liu Bai saluted and left.
Shao Xun put the tea bowl on the other side and spread out the map.
In fact, after living in Pingyang for several years, he can already speak some simple Xiongnu and Jie languages, but not Xianbei and Wuhuan languages.
He plans to take time to learn more of these foreign language conversations. When they meet in the future, he can say a few words to increase his goodwill and facilitate the united front.
The clerk sent several more military reports, and Shao Xun read them slowly.
The war in Jingzhou has ended. Both sides have withdrawn their troops. Wang Dun fell ill and was pursued when he retreated. He lost two counties of Suiguo and suffered a heavy loss.
Someone in Ruyin County offered his city to Jiangdong, and Zhang Shuo, the governor of the Yinqiang Zhongying camp, led his troops to seek peace. Now the liquidation is beginning.
Some people from the Qiao Kingdom also offered the city, but unfortunately the Wu soldiers along the way were just here to plunder, and had no intention of launching a large-scale attack. Zhang Shuo sent his troops eastward to join forces with the Qiao and Pei Kingdoms, and recaptured the city. these cities.
To the west, the Huns sent out troops in two directions. One attacked Hongnong, which was defeated by Shao Shen; the other attacked Hedong. Xi Jian's attack was average and suffered some losses. Many troops were killed and wounded, but they relied on the defenders to defend the city. The enemy was exhausted, and small gains were made during the pursuit.
In the direction of Xuzhou, Zu Ti was ordered to go north - but he was just following orders, and seemed to lack the passion of the past.
In the end, each of them stopped their troops and the battle line did not move.
The Yuwen clan did not plunder Youzhou this year, which made Shao Xun a little uncomfortable.
The wars in these directions can no longer affect the overall situation.
Jiangdong does not have much motivation to go north. The Huns do want to go east, but their more capable troops are only more than 20,000, and their strength is limited.
At this point, more and more people must have seen clearly that at least the situation in the north is very stable and the pattern of the world is very clear.
******
When the heaven-sacrifice ceremony was over, the sky was already dark, and a carriage stopped outside the tent.
"Your Majesty." Wang walked in excitedly.
Shao Xun looked at her face and saw that the power of secret power was really amazing.
She has changed.
She is only nineteen years old now. When she is twenty-nine or thirty-nine, she does not know how she will be alienated by power.
"Come here." Shao Xun waved.
The excitement on Wang's face subsided slightly and she walked over slowly.
She first lit the candle in the tent, and then stood not far away in confusion.
She had a wonderful premonition that King Liang was going to do something to her today.
This hunch is not without reason.
Before congratulating and offering sacrifices to heaven, he had been wandering around, visiting powerful and noble people, promising huge profits, and wooing them in many ways. Otherwise, today's scene wouldn't be so big.
After these are stable, he may need payment.
Shao Xun tapped his fingers on the table and said, "Are you disobedient?"
Wang said in a low voice: "As long as you are nice to me..."
Shao Xun chuckled.
When she heard this laughter, Wang blushed a little, as if the man had seen through the tangled and complicated psychology in her heart.
She finally came over and was held in Shao Xun's arms.
Wang pretended to look at the map on the desk, her body stiff. "Unknowingly, the war with Tuoba Xianbei has come to this day." Shao Xun's hand moved downwards, stroking it deftly: "Three years ago, I was patrolling the border fortress in the north, and Tuoba Yulu suddenly went south, and I almost killed him. I was stuck in Kelan, and the war started until today."
Under the candlelight, Wang twisted his body uneasily.
"There was an arrogant member of Bu Liugu's family who said that Yu Lu would marry me as his concubine after he went south to conquer Pingyang, but I pulled out his tongue."
Ms. Wang shook her head slightly, not knowing. Is she feeling uncomfortable, comfortable, or is she denying something to her husband?
"On the first lunar month, when I saw my wife, I became interested."
Wang's stiff body gradually softened, and she turned her head to look at Shao Xun, with some surprise in her eyes , and there are some things that are unclear.
“You look nothing like a Wuhuan person.”
"Both men and women, they seem to have eye folds, flat and round faces, full of flesh. You are different, you have nothing in common with them."
"Their bodies are very thick, and your waist is too slender. But the waist suddenly enlarged, and the legs are still very long, very strong, and very powerful."
While listening, Wang felt a chill in her buttocks, and her loose trousers were pulled down.
It is August, and there is a slight chill in the tent. The candlelight casts a pale yellow halo on the two round petals.
Under the halo, there are fine goosebumps, one by one.
The lady who had just presided over the sacred ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, and the actual ruler of the country who had just accepted the obeisance and allegiance of the elders of the grassland tribes, were gently pushed down on the table.
Shang Shang was pushed up, revealing her thrilling curves.
Endless mountain peaks were placed upside down on the map of Dai, slightly collapsed, just like the strength of Dai.
"Your Majesty, please don't..." Wang begged softly: "The nobles have not left yet."
"So what?" Shao Xun did not give any face.
The noble woman whom the prairie nobleman worships is like a rouge-colored mare, opening the place where she gave birth to the prairie nobleman in front of him for him to enjoy.
"Your Majesty..." Wang was worried and didn't want him to succeed, so she shook violently.
She put her face on the map, opened her mouth slightly, and drooled some saliva, soaking in the four characters of Dongmugen Mountain.
After a moment, she suddenly opened her eyes, opened her mouth, and breathed in gently. Her whole body was so stiff that she didn't dare to move.
Slowly, as if something was released from the bottom of her heart, she exhaled the turbid breath slowly and slowly, and her whole body softened.
The man behind him sighed contentedly.
Wang had some broken jars. She blushed and closed her eyes gently.
......
Another team of carriages and horses came outside the tent.
Shi Yiqian couldn't sit still and wanted to get out of the car, but was stopped by Wang Chang.
He glared at Wang Chang, opened the carriage curtain, and glanced at the tent.
This tent stands a mile away from the altar, but no one can ignore it, so much so that some people talked about it softly during the sacrifice.
Shi Yiqian was confused and a little angry.
In his mind, how could the King of Liang of Jin compare to his late father’s wisdom and martial prowess?
But his mother reprimanded him again and again and asked him to serve the morning and evening, which made him feel even more humiliated.
Taking advantage of Wang Chang's unpreparedness, he jumped off the carriage and headed towards the camp, but was soon stopped by the Shao soldiers.
Shi Yiqian was helpless and shouted twice before being led back by Wang Chang.
In the tent, Wang was lying on the table, her left hand hanging low to the ground, her right hand clenched into a fist and placed near her mouth.
Most of his head has been hit outside the desk and is hanging in the air, with his hair shaking violently back and forth.
After hearing Shi Yiqian's cry, she suddenly woke up and subconsciously wanted to struggle.
But it's too late...
On the map, Pingcheng, the capital of Dai Kingdom, has been overwhelmed by countless elite soldiers just like this war.
......
When the moon rose above the willow branches, Wang finally returned to the carriage.
She squeezed her legs tightly and avoided the eyes of her son, Wang Chang and others.
The carriage rumbled and drove to Pingcheng.
While walking, she looked dazed and frowned, as if she had many worries.
For a moment, her eyes stayed on her son for a long time.
Shi Yiqian looked at his mother in confusion.
Wang didn't say anything, just sighed.
Wang Changruo realized something and didn't pay too much attention.
Some things don't mean much on the grassland. What he is more concerned about is when King Liang will leave.
If the army does not withdraw, they will not be able to truly take power.
He had an ominous premonition that Dai Guo seemed to be gradually deviating from his original vision and slowly becoming out of control.
He couldn't help but glance at Shi Yiqian secretly. Dai Gong's future became more and more confusing.
There was also movement on the other side of the camp, and the army marched towards Baideng Stage.
Many Jin officials have come recently. King Liang often receives them there, but he doesn’t know what they are planning.
