Chapter 257: Zhang Shiyi is here

"Father, can you let me go first, this rope is so tight!" On the swaying carriage, Zhang Shiyi pleaded with a wry smile to the bearded guest in front of him, only to see that he was tightly tied with a thumb-thick rope, his hands behind his back, and even his palms were tied tightly together, and it was impossible to break free.

"Huh, let you go? What if you let Lao Tzu escape again? The main reason why he has been gone for a few months is that Zhang Shiyi, the bastard, received the news in advance and actually hid in the Wa Kingdom, but the Hauled Ke had to personally run to the Wa Kingdom and arrest him.

"Father, how dare I escape in front of you, and you have tied me all the way, and now you are about to arrive in Chang'an, so should you also loosen my bonds, otherwise people will see how faceless I am?" Zhang Shiyi said with a bitter face again, he was almost tied up all the way, and he was watched by his father for twelve hours a day, he even had to ask for instructions before going to the toilet, and he could only let others feed him when he ate.

The bearded guest also groaned for a moment when he heard this, and then opened the car window and looked outside, it was estimated that he would be able to reach Li Xiu's house in half a day at most, which made him finally put his mind at ease, stretched out his hand to untie the rope on Zhang Shiyi's body, and said: "You kid has to bear the consequences if you do something wrong, that Qu Yi must marry me, and it is best to give birth to a few more children, so that I can choose from them to inherit the foundation I laid in the Americas in the future!" ”

"Father, do you really plan to abandon the nearly ten years of hard work in Chikushi Island and move all your family business to the Americas?" Zhang Shiyi shook off the rope on his body, and then moved his hands and feet and asked, along the way, he had heard a lot of bearded people's ideas about the Americas, but until now he still felt that his father's ideas were a little unrealistic.

"Nonsense, if I didn't have such determination, would I force you to get married?" The bearded guest said angrily again, originally he went to Nanyang to transport some things brought from the Americas, and then sent someone to inform Zhang Shiyi to meet him in Dengzhou, but he didn't expect Zhang Shiyi to hide in the country and not come back, which made him have no choice but to run in person, delaying a lot of time, and Qu Yi seemed to be about to give birth.

"But father, you never thought that the Mayans have their own beliefs and lifestyles, and you want to implement our Chinese etiquette there, and even make it a small Huaxia, although this idea is good, but the difficulties are countless, I am afraid that even if you do your best, it will be difficult to succeed!" Zhang Shiyi persuaded a little bitterly at this time, on the one hand, he really didn't want to get married so early, and on the other hand, he didn't agree with his father's somewhat whimsical plan, because he felt that the difficulties were too great.

Hearing his son's words, he saw that the bearded guest was silent for a moment, and then suddenly sighed and patted Zhang Shiyi's shoulder and said, "Eleven, among your brothers, you are the most talented, even more than my father, but do you know what the biggest difference between you and me is?" ”

"Huh?" Zhang Shiyi was stunned when he heard these words of the bearded guest, because it was the first time he heard his father praise himself since he was a child, and even compared him with himself, which made him not know what to say for a while?

Seeing that Zhang Shiyi was stunned and didn't answer, the bearded guest said to himself: "Your personality is too frivolous, and you are not calm enough when encountering difficulties, especially when encountering difficulties, it is easy to be afraid and retreat, and the biggest difference between me and you is that I am not only not afraid of difficulties, but also like to create difficulties for myself, only when these difficulties are overcome one by one, I will feel great joy, can you experience these?" ”

"This ...... Who likes to find it difficult for themselves? After listening to his father's words, Zhang Shiyi whispered a little disapprovingly, and then spoke again, "Father, even if you like to challenge difficulties, have you thought about how to change the customs of the Mayans and make them Chinese, do you plan to force them all to speak Chinese and wear Hanfu after seizing the power of Wahaktong?" ”

"Hmph, do you think I'm going to be that stupid?" The bearded man also knew that he would not be able to change his son for a while, but he still explained, "It is naturally not easy to change the customs of a race, but I will not force it, the first step is naturally to obtain the power of Wahaktong, and then move some people from the Central Plains to live with them in the past, especially to reward Han men to marry local women......

"Wait a minute!" Before the bearded guest could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Shiyi, "Father, the population of the Central Plains is not large now, and the Tang Dynasty government is also very strict with the household registration management of the people, and the people are not allowed to move at all, where do you find the Han people to move to the Americas?" ”

"Stupid!" As soon as Zhang Shiyi's words fell, he was slapped on the head by the bearded guest, and then he saw the bearded guest speak, "Although the Tang Dynasty is very strict in the management of the population, it is not without loopholes, for example, in the south, the control of the Tang government is very weak, especially Li Yuan made a big mistake and actually killed the emperor of the Southern Liang Dynasty, Xiao Milling, which caused the people in the south to be very dissatisfied with the Tang Dynasty, especially some of the remnants of the Southern Liang Dynasty, who are not subject to the control of the Tang Dynasty at all, these are all objects that can be fought for, as long as you spend a little effort, It's not a problem to move a few thousand people! ”

"It's only a few thousand, isn't it a little little?" Zhang Shiyi said with some skepticism again when he heard this.

"Nothing less, a few thousand people is already good, plus some of my people in Tsukushi Island and Nanyang, plus their families, and finally there are tens of thousands of people, try to move there as much as possible, the entire city-state of Wahaktong is only about 10,000 people, and with these people moving in, it will definitely have a huge impact on the local Mayans."

When he said this, he saw the bearded guest smile again: "Speaking of which, we also have to thank the Mayans, in order to facilitate the rule, all knowledge is in the hands of the sacrifices, ordinary Mayans are actually very ignorant, for us, fooling these Mayans is actually very simple, and we can start from the children, teach them to speak Chinese and write Chinese characters from an early age, and wait until twenty years later, it is estimated that the local Mayans will only think that they are Han, not Mayans!" ”

Seeing his father's eyes shining above above, Zhang Shiyi couldn't help but sigh, he knew that as long as it was his father's decision, no matter what others said, he would not change it easily, it seemed that he was going to get engaged this time.

In the afternoon, the carriage of the bearded guest and Zhang Shiyi finally arrived in front of Li Xiu's house, and Li Xiu, who got the news, immediately went out to greet him, and when he saw the bearded guest father and son, he immediately laughed loudly: "Uncle, why did you come back, the house has already been built for you, and now I am waiting for you to come back and live in." ”

After Li Xiu finished speaking to the bearded guest, he turned to Zhang Shiyi and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for many days, Brother Eleven's demeanor is still the same, and I also want to congratulate Brother Eleven on his wedding, the wedding is ready, just wait for you to come back to the church!" ”

"That...... It's a lot of hard work on the next road, so let's wait two days for the wedding! Zhang Shiyi said with an embarrassed expression when he heard Li Xiu's words, although he didn't have any feelings for Qu Yi, he still didn't want to get married so early, even if it was good to delay it for two more days.

"What are you waiting for, since the wedding is ready, then we will get married tomorrow, Qu Yi will give birth in a month, what will it look like if you wait?" The bearded man was round-eyed at this time, he was a fiery character, and he also knew what Zhang Shiyi was thinking, so he didn't give him the slightest chance at all.

"Okay, just do what the uncle said, please come in quickly, the other eleventh brother also needs to meet Qu Yi, speaking of which, she has been talking about the eleventh brother every day during this time!" Li Xiu replied very happily when he heard the bearded guest's words, and at the same time looked at Zhang Shiyi with a meaningful gaze, if you look closely, you can even see a smile in his eyes that can't be hidden.

The bearded guest and Zhang Shiyi entered the living room at the moment, Li Xiu also ordered someone to invite Qu Yi over, and he accompanied their father and son to drink tea, at this time Zhang Shiyi finally found out his conscience, and asked Li Xiu at the moment: "Brother Li, how is Qu Yi during this time, is the child in her belly okay?" ”

"Brother Eleven, don't worry, Qu Yi has a good relationship with the princess, and I often go to the princess to play together, and I also invited the midwife to live at home, according to the midwife, the child in Qu Yi's belly is very good, but it's just ......"

Li Xiu suddenly hesitated a little at the end, which made the bearded guest and Zhang Shiyi both a little nervous and asked, "But what?" ”

"But I asked the doctor to help Qu Yihao pass the pulse, and the doctor said that Qu Yihuai might be a girl, so I also asked the uncle and the eleventh brother to get ready!" After coming to Datang, Li Xiu found out how serious the patriarchy of this era is, for example, most girls don't even have a name, if a woman gives birth to several girls in a row, other women will avoid her, worried that she will pass on the bad luck on her body, and the women who gave birth to sons are all arrogant, and there are even other women who ask him for advice on childbirth experience and so on.

"Daughter?" Sure enough, the bearded guest was also a little disappointed when he heard this, but he quickly cheered up and said, "It's okay with my daughter, you can work hard in the future and give birth to a few more handles!" ”

Hearing his father's words, Zhang Shiyi couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face, but at this moment, he suddenly saw Yuechan, who had just gone to inform Qu Yi, walking quickly, and then whispering a few words to Li Xiu, which made Li Xiu stunned, and then looked at Zhang Shiyi with a little sympathy.
