Chapter 1275: Dinner Party (I)
Located about 400 miles from Kashgar, Shache is an open plain at the northern foot of the Kunlun Mountains and on the southern edge of the Green Mountains, through which the Yarkand River flows, giving birth to a large oasis of life, and almost all around it is desert.
The Yarkand Khanate was founded in the ninth year of Zhengde, and it has only been more than ten years, and the founding emperor Sayid is the younger brother of the Turbo Mansuer Khan, and he is still in power.
Earlier introduced this Sayid Khan, this person is definitely a character, due to the failure of the rebellion, was chased and killed by his brother Mansuer, so he fled to the area of the Green Mountains to take refuge in a group of bandits, and then the bandit boss was killed by the enemy, Sayid became the new boss of this group of bandits, and then came and went, out of control, along the Tarim River to occupy a large area, and finally established the Yarkand Khanate, the territory is larger than his brother's Turbo Khanate.
In the beginning, Sayid set the capital in Kashgar, but later found that the environment in Shache seemed to be better, so he moved the capital to Shache.
Getting back to the point, and said that Wang Cuiqiao and his entourage trekked for three days, arrived in Shache on October 11, the sixth year of Jiajing, entered the city in the afternoon, and booked an inn to stay overnight.
The next morning, as soon as Wang Cuiqiao had finished dressing up, and before she could put her hair up, Babur knocked on the door and invited her to breakfast, but Wang Cuiqiao politely refused through the door and asked him to send someone into the room early.
Babur wanted to take the opportunity to get close, so he had to leave dejectedly and go to breakfast by himself, but when it was almost noon, Babur came again in a hurry, not to have lunch with Wang Cuiqiao, but to tell her the good news.
Wang Cuiqiao didn't turn him away this time, so she asked Qiu Yan to open the door and invite him into the house, and served tea.
Seeing that Wang Cuiqiao was still wrapped in a headcloth in the room, covering his peerless appearance, Babur couldn't help but be a little disappointed, took a sip of tea and said: "This prince is lucky, not long ago I saw Zaisang Ahmat Hasmu of the Yarkand Khanate, so he brazenly asked for a warrant for the king's family. ”
When Wang Cuiqiao heard this, the bright eyes that could speak immediately showed a hint of joy, Babur had done the matter so quickly, which was really unexpected to her, and she hurriedly and solemnly bowed and said, "Cuiqiao has thanked His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Babur waved his hand and said, "The king is serious, just raise your hands...... It's just that! ”
Bubar's words changed as he spoke, and his face showed embarrassment, Wang Cuiqiao's heart moved, and asked, "Is there a difficulty with His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”
Babur said, "This is ...... I'm afraid it's a bit abrupt to say it, I'm afraid that you will be unhappy when you hear it. ”
Wang Cuiqiao said indifferently: "It's okay, His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Babur then said: "This is the case, Hasmuzaisan admires the kings very much, and hopes to have the honor to listen to the king's divine comedy, and this prince does not dare to agree for the king's family, so I have come to inquire, if the king's family is not happy, then the prince will block it for you." ”
Wang Cui frowned and frowned like a light cigarette, just as the so-called eating other people's soft mouths and taking other people's hands short, he just accepted the love of others and got the warrant, if he directly refused the other party, it was really unreasonable, and if he didn't make it right, he would even blame Babur, so he asked lightly: "When did the other party make an appointment?" ”
When Babur heard this, he rejoiced: "Tonight, a banquet will be held in the Zaisang Mansion, and some officials and nobles of the country will attend. ”
"Then let it be arranged by His Royal Highness the Prince." Wang Cuiqiao said indifferently.
It is said that in the past three years, Wang Cuiqiao has traveled all the way to various countries, and has entered the palace to perform more than once or twice. So he didn't have stage fright at all, and calmly agreed.
The two chatted a few more words, and seeing that Wang Cuiqiao didn't seem to be in high spirits, Babur was embarrassed to continue to lie in the room, so he got up and said goodbye and left.
Walking out of Wang Cuiqiao's room, Babur's handsome face was immediately pulled down, because he already felt that Wang Cuiqiao's attitude towards him seemed to be unfamiliar in the past few days, of course, Wang Cuiqiao's attitude towards him in the past was far from close, but at least it was more sincere than now.
"This woman is very thoughtful, I am afraid that what happened in the Bren Pass a few days ago has aroused her alarm." Babur clenched his fists in annoyance, his patience was becoming more and more lacking at the moment, and he secretly said: "It will take him two more months at most, and if it doesn't work by then, then he will have to make a decision, and then don't blame Prince Ben for being rude." ”
Zaisang was the prime minister, and his status in the khanate was second only to the king of the khan, and now the prime minister of the Yarkand Khanate is called Ahmat Hasmu. This is an out-and-out founding hero, and his status is similar to that of Li Shanchang, the founding prime minister of the Ming Dynasty, not only has a high status, but also holds military power, which is naturally stronger than Li Shanchang.
It is estimated that in addition to the palace of the Khan, his residence is the largest and most luxurious, which is located on the west side of the Khan's palace.
As soon as it was dark, Babur led Wang Cuiqiao's master and servant to the front of Zaisang's mansion, only to see tonight's Zaisang's mansion was lit up, and two rows of lanterns illuminated the door of the mansion as bright as day.
The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and the maidservant Qiu Yan got out of the carriage first, and then reached out and carefully picked Wang Cuiqiao down. Wang changed into a set of lake-green long skirts tonight, the long hair was pulled into a falling ponytail at the back of the head, looking dignified and elegant, the slender figure was like Nana's, the white veil covered the lower half of the face, only the part above the eyes was exposed, Rao was so, and he still saw that the eyes of those guards were straight.
"Trouble spread, and Babur and the king came to the feast as promised." Babur said to the guard.
"Lord Zaisang has instructed that if Prince Babur and the king come, they should be led directly into the door, and there is no need to pass it on, and the two of you please go in with the little one." The palace guard lowered his eyes and said respectfully, and he gradually became so filthy that he didn't dare to take another look at the royal family who was like a fairy.
Babur turned his head and smiled, "King, let's go in!" ”
At this moment, someone behind him shouted: "Brother Babur, wait! ”
Babur and Wang Cuiqiao turned around and followed the prestige, only to see a group of people striding over a tall young man, this young man was about twenty-five or sixteen years old, not handsome in appearance, but his body was very well-proportioned, with a gold belt, his waist and upper body formed an inverted triangle, and the two pectoralis major muscles were very obvious, similar to those big guys who participated in bodybuilding competitions.
A hint of strangeness flashed in Babur's eyes, but he smiled and said, "Who am I, it turns out to be Brother Rashid!" ”
