229 The ancient kingdom of Central Asia, Pakhana

After discussing for a while, the people present decided to give Zheng Peng a chance to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.

In the words of his brother Zheng Changzhu, that day was called an encouragement, which made Zheng Peng ashamed and brave, and Zheng Peng's name was still on the family tree, which is the best proof.

As this father and head of the family, Zheng Changduo, who has always been strong, will definitely not be able to leave behind, Zheng Cheng wants to go, but Zheng Yuanxing vetoed it on the spot, there is a misunderstanding between the two brothers, and they are afraid that it will be unpleasant to meet again, and it will not help to mend the relationship.

Zheng Changduo doesn't go, Zheng Yuan's family is naturally not easy to go, there is no reason for Lao Tzu to whisper to his son, if the talk collapses, there is no room for redemption at that time, in addition, there is another problem, as the eldest son, the parents are here, do not travel far, otherwise it will be spread out and cause criticism.

It's almost winter, the merchants are busy hoarding goods, the fields are busy with the autumn harvest, Zheng Yuanxing and Zheng Yuanwang can't leave, and the amount is high to the end, and finally it is decided that the old Zheng family will make enemies and the second Zheng Yuanye will go together.

Zheng Jiashu was born in Yuancheng as soon as he was born, at such an age, the farthest time he has been out of Weizhou, let alone going to Chang'an, he needs to send someone to accompany him, which can also show the sincerity of the family, and finally decided to let Zheng Cheng's son Zheng Yuanye accompany him.

Only he is the most suitable.

In the end, Zheng Changduo made a final decision: "This matter is settled, Yuanye, you go to the account to pay a sum of money for expenses on the way, take care of your uncle on the road, remember not to be greedy for fun on the road, go early and return early." ”

This is a "public money" trip, Zheng Yuanye was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately said: "Understood, yes." ”

It turned out that Zheng Peng, a loser, was driven out of the house, and everyone thought that they were not afraid of being dragged down by him in the future, as if they threw a burden, and they were a pity on the surface, but they were secretly happy in their hearts, and what was unexpected was that as soon as Zheng Peng left Yuancheng, he seemed to be like a fish in water, and the more he lived, the more moisturized he became, not to mention the relationship with the famous Guo Mansion in Weizhou, his fame became bigger and bigger, and there were more and more masterpieces, and he went to Chang'an for a year, and he was promoted to a five-grade judge.

You must know that now the Zheng family in Yuancheng has no one who even enters the product, but he has driven a child who is a fifth-grade official out of the house.

Hearing the news that Zheng Peng had made a name for himself, some unaware relatives and friends, and neighbors came over to congratulate him, so that Zheng Changduo and others didn't know what to say.

didn't say anything, but the expression in his eyes made Zheng Changduo feel crazy: looking at Zheng Changduo's gaze, it was like looking at an idiot.

Zheng Changduo's mood was bad, and the whole family also suffered, not only the monthly money was cut, but also often angry because of some trivial things, like Zheng Yuanye, who was idle on weekdays, Zheng Changduo used to have one eye open and one eye closed, let him go, now it is different, if he is in a bad mood, he will pick a thorn, Zheng Yuanye, who is stinky and sick, will be punished the most.

Don't say where to go, now it's just to find a friend for an outing and be scolded, it's rare to go to Chang'an for a turn, this is a public-funded tour, anyway, my own Lao Tzu is not clear about the prices outside, not to mention the old Zheng Jiashu, I don't know a few big characters, I am a little trembling when I see the official errand on weekdays, just take the opportunity to be merry.

In Zheng Yuanye's eyes, this time he went to Chang'an, no matter what, he would make a sure profit: Zheng Peng agreed to return, and there will be a big tree as a backer in the future, but it is a big deal to be thick-skinned, and he can always get light; It's that Zheng Peng didn't go back after eating the scales, he didn't worry, he went to Chang'an to have a good time, and then the family business would be handed over to Zheng Cheng.

No matter how you calculate it, you can take advantage of it.

When Zheng Yuanye was complacent, Ah Lishen, who was thousands of miles away, sat in a luxurious palace, watching the beautiful women dancing seductively, tasting mellow grape wine, and showing a satisfied look in his eyes.

Ayazan is the king of the country of Pakhanna, which is an ancient country in Central Asia, in the valley of the middle reaches of the Syr Darya River, the Han Dynasty used to be called Dawan, and the famous Dawan horse was produced here, and it was changed to Pakhana after the Han Dynasty.

The capital of the kingdom of Palhana is located in the city of Thirsty Sai, which is the most prosperous city of Palhanna, where there is both the palace of King Ah Lishen and the capital of Xiuxun Prefecture established by the Tang Dynasty.

The reason is simple, the country of Pakhana is a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.

After the Tang Dynasty destroyed the Western Turkistan, because the distance was too far, the supply was not easy, and the sweat was very poor, there was no oil and water, and it was not easy to rule.

Ah Lishen has two identities, one is the king of Pakhana, and the other is the assassin of the governor's mansion of Xiuxun.

As for the tribute paid by the ministers, Ah Lishen didn't mind, anyway, he didn't have any big ambitions, and he was very satisfied with his current life.

The melody of the music is moving, the dancing posture of the beautiful women is sultry, and the rare grape wine in the cup is immersed in the gentle country, and the eyes are a little confused.

However, such a beautiful moment was ruined.

When Ah Lishen was getting better, Sotur, the Minister of State of the Palkhana Kingdom, strode in, and when he saw Ah Lishen watching the performance with a leisurely face, his face changed, and he said with a serious face: "My king, when is it, are you still nostalgic for these women?" ”

He was very interested in personal pleasure, and he didn't like to be disturbed while he was enjoying his life, and if anyone else did, he would immediately let the guards in, tie up the offending person with a rope, drag him around the palace on a horse, and let people see what happened to him if he offended him, but not now.

Sotur is not only the important minister of the Khanna, but also the uncle of Ah Lishen, it was he who saw that the Tang Dynasty had become a general trend, and suggested that Ah Lishen surrender to the Tang Dynasty, and Ah Lishen can be the king, for this uncle, Ah Lishen still values it very much.

"Dear uncle, night has just come, and it is a good time to relax, so it is better to sit down and have a drink." Ah Lishen said with a smile.

"My king, have you read the information?" Sotur was in the mood to drink, and asked bluntly.

"A lot of information, I don't know what my uncle said, which one?"

Sotur was a little speechless, as if the king did not know which piece of information was dangerous, and immediately reminded him when he heard the words: "It is the letter about Tibet and the Great Food." ”

"I've seen it." Ah Lishen said a little casually.

"My king, the situation is already very urgent, and we can't wait to ignore it" Sotur said anxiously: "I received news that Tubo and Dashi sent people to secretly find your brother Ayanda, which may be unfavorable to Khan, and I need to think of a countermeasure." ”

After a pause, Sotur added: "Recently, Tubo and Da Shi have been moving frequently, and I am afraid that it will not be good for us. ”

Whether it is Tibet or Dashi, the national strength is stronger than that of Pakhania, which is only a small country in Central Asia, and it is not an opponent of the two empires at all, not to mention that the two have formed an alliance.

What worries Sotur the most is that this matter also involves Ada.

For the entire nation of Pakhana, Araja is a combination of hero and disaster.

In terms of talent and ability, as a younger brother, Ah Lida is better than his elder brother Ah Lishen, he has both civil and military skills, known as the first warrior of Pakhana, when it comes to being a king, in fact, Ah Lida is more suitable.

Ah Lida gave up the throne by himself, because he did not agree with the Tang Dynasty, and felt that his clansmen were very good, and there was no need to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, but the Tang Dynasty was too powerful, and the opinions of the clan were very unified, so he chose to leave with his tribe and cronies.

If the Tibetans and the Great Eclippers disturbed the Ayada, the situation in Pakhana would become dangerous.

Sotur was so anxious that he was about to get angry, but Ah Lishen said very calmly: "Dear uncle, you are too worried, please let go of your worries, there is Datang here, nothing happens." ”

With the improvement of national strength, the influence and deterrence of Datang in the Western Regions are unprecedentedly strong, and many tribes look forward to it, so that the influence is even greater.

At the beginning of the year, the imperial court once again issued an order to reward Ah Lishen, if the Khanate was really attacked, the Tang Dynasty would definitely not sit idly by.

Leaning on the big tree to enjoy the shade, this is the truth that Ah Lishen is full of confidence.

"My king, sometimes distant waters can't save near fires, and sometimes you have to think about yourself." Sotur spoke.

Ah Lishen nodded and said: "This sentence is very reasonable, please rest assured, uncle, there is really something, General Borneo will not sit idly by, over the years, we have exchanged a large number of elite equipment with the Tang Dynasty, and the warriors under our command, the armor is strong and the sword is sharp, and I really want to swallow my Khan country, and I have to ask the soldiers if the war knives in their hands are agreed." ”

"There is an abnormality here, and I believe that the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate will not sit idly by."

When he said these words, he was full of confidence.

Ah Lishen likes pleasure, and is afraid that others will rob him of everything he has, so he does everything possible to protect his rights, that is, he has no ambition, but also to protect his territory.

In addition, Ah Lishen used the horses produced in the country in exchange for a lot of weapons and armor, selected 2,000 elites from the army of Pakhana, gave them the best armor, the best horses, and the best weapons, and created an elite of the elite, imitating the Tang Dynasty called the Royal Forest Army, and handed over to the henchman Borneo to command.

If Tubo and Da Shi dared to attack, Ah Lishen asked people to use the peak fire to send a message, as long as they resisted for three days, the reinforcements of the Tang Dynasty could arrive.

Sotur nodded and said, "That makes sense, but..."

"Uncle, it's nothing, but now that the Tang Dynasty is getting stronger and stronger, I believe that even if Tubo and Dashi join forces, they are not the opponents of the Tang Dynasty." Ah Lishen said confidently.

Just as Sotur was about to nod his head in agreement, the palace door slammed open, and a general-looking man rushed over while shouting "Oh no".
