Five hundred and eighteenth

Xiao Lu Feng's words really surprised Lu Ren in his heart, he originally wanted to talk more about Xiao Lu Feng, but the doorman suddenly came to report that the Nanban people led by Deng Ai asked to see him, so Lu Ren could only branch Xiao Lu Feng first and invite the people to the hall. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info When Lu Ren unfolded the letter written by Deng Ai and took a closer look, he was stunned:

"The Southern and Southern Barbarian King Meng Shu!? Oh, my God! ”

Straighten your clothes and cut your hair; The main table is a few seats. After some hurriedness, Lu Renwei was sitting in the hall and instructed the attendants: "Go and invite Meng Xu, the king of the Southern Barbarians, to enter the hall for a while." ”

The attendant took the order, and after a short time led a man and a woman dressed in alien costumes into the hall. After each of them, Lu Ren took a closer look at Meng Shu and Zhu Rong, and saw that Meng Huo was only in his early twenties, and Zhu Rong may be eighteen or nine years old, and the clothing was not too far from the Nanban in Lu Ren's image. As for Zhu Rongzhi, there is nothing too special, according to Lu Ren's aesthetics, she is a beauty, wearing a short skirt that is close to the Miao family, revealing one-third of her thighs, and the exposed skin is a very healthy brown, giving people the feeling of complete wild beauty.

(PS: There is really nothing to be found about the records of Meng Shu and Nanban, and the bottles are made up randomly here.) According to limited records, Zhuge Liang's southern expedition was in the third year of Jianxing, that is, in 225 AD. Assuming that Meng Huo, who was in the third year of Jianxing, was less than forty years old, according to the current process in the book, it is the fourteenth year of Jian'an, that is, in 210 AD, and Meng Huo was in his twenties, which seems more reasonable)

The two sides each hung each other for a long time, and finally Lu Ren opened his mouth first: "Lu Ren has long heard that the Southern Barbarian King Meng won the name, and today I am fortunate to see ......" As soon as the words came out, Lu Ren realized that something was not right, and now Meng Huo is so young, he should really not have a reputation. At the very least, when talking to Shi Xie about the trade with the Nanban region, Lu Ren had inadvertently mentioned Meng Huo, but Shi Xie shook his head and said that he had never heard of it.

Sure enough, Meng Shuleng, who was old and thick, took a long time before replying: "Meng Shu has only succeeded as the leader of the tribe for two years, and few people know about it among the many tribal caves in Yunnan, but Lu Yizhou seems to have known about me for a long time, which is really strange!" ”

Lu Ren waved his hand and snorted, and hurriedly remedied: "In the past two years, my business travelers in Yiquan and Quanzhou have often gone to Yunnan and other places to buy some rare and exotic toys, and when they return to me, they will naturally know the name of King Meng." ”

This explanation was barely reasonable, and Meng Shu was relatively large, nodding his head to express relief. At this time, an attendant brought tea, wine and pastries to the guests, and Lu Ren made a gesture to please use it, which also used it to hide his embarrassment.

After three ceremonial toasts, Lu Ren also noticed that Meng Shu seemed to know some Han etiquette, but it was not very standard. His mind was also much clearer, and after sorting out some thoughts a little, Lu Ren asked: "King Meng is not in Yunnan to govern the clan, but what is the reason why he came to me to hand over the address?" ”

Speaking of which, Lu Ren felt very strange, Meng Huo was also a Southern Barbarian King, and how could a person who was the king of a clan only bring his wife and ran to someone else's territory to ask for a lord? And it seems that Meng Huo and his wife don't even have attendants by their side, not to mention what kind of "high-level people" visit other places under normal circumstances, advocate opening the way, send envoys to ask for a meeting, and don't even think about what "gifts" are. And from Meng Shu's words just now, Lu Ren vaguely found out something, but he hadn't been able to sort out his messy mind for a while.

Over there, Meng Huo drank all the wine in the cup in one go, and after hearing Lu Ren's question, he hurriedly put down the wine glass and wanted to reply, but he was so anxious that he choked on himself. Zhu Rong, who was beside Meng Shu, frowned a few times, knelt there and moved his shoulders, and Meng Shu's face showed a look that he should be enduring pain.

Lu Renguaner. Although the actions of Meng Huo and his wife are not accurate, similar things often happen to Lu Ren and Minchan. Originally, the combination of Lu Ren and Diao Chan was a bit staggering, but now when I suddenly see a couple who are close to each other, I can't help but smile. Lu Ren even glanced at Meng Shu with sympathy, smiled and sighed.

"Ahem-ahem!" This dry cough sound was made by Minchan.

Meng Shu was stunned and put on a look of "So you are similar to me", Lu Ren smiled and nodded.

Not to mention how Erchan was, Zhu Rong over there was really a little unbearable, and secretly twisted Meng Shu again and then bowed his hand to Lu Ren: "Lu Yizhou, a month ago, my clan heard that Lu Yizhou had captured the address and took Shixie's place, so I rushed here to congratulate Lu Yizhou." It's just that he came too quickly, and he hasn't prepared any gifts, and he hopes that Lu Yizhou will not be surprised. ”

Lu Ren paused slightly, this matter gave people the feeling that it seemed that the couple should really be planning Zhu Rong. After thinking about it, Lu Ren suddenly pulled Minchan closer, and asked Zhu Rong, "Mrs. Zhu, let's not say these kind words, right?" I sense that you and you have come here to ask for me, and it is not as simple as congratulatory congratulations. ”

Meng Shu slapped his thigh with a big grin and said: "Lu Yizhou is fast and fast, it's really refreshing......" Zhu Rong glared back halfway through the words, and lowered his head with his hands in his arms and said nothing.

Seeing this, Lu Ren smiled and asked again: "Nanban is originally a remote and alien land, and it has little contact with my Dahanzhou County. Today, the king and his wife are here alone, which is no different from taking risks alone. The king has something to say, and he doesn't have to say anything. ”

Meng Huo may have been controlled by Zhu Rong, and he kept his head down and was silent.

Zhu Rong took Lu Ren's words and responded: "Lu Yizhou, I can't hide it, I'm really ashamed of the title of the Southern Barbarian King. In fact, in the vicinity of Yunnan, there are many tribes of all kinds, and the tribal leaders among them are called the Southern Barbarian Kings in the mouths of the people in the Han family. If you really want to talk about it, maybe it would be more appropriate for Lu Yizhou to call me, a fool, the sect master or the head. ”

Lu Ren was slightly stunned, he really didn't know much about this kind of thing. Now, according to Zhu Rong, Meng Shu is just the head of a clan among the many Nanban alien clans, and it doesn't seem to be a powerful clan - if it is really a clan with a bit of power, how can it be so shabby like these two couples!?

After a pause, Lu Ren said: "In that case, then let me call Sect Master Meng." You husband and wife are far away from the Yunnan clan, what is the matter with coming to my address? ”

Zhu Rong said: "Lu Yizhou has replaced Shi Xie and occupied the address, these things have nothing to do with our Nanban tribes. It's just that I really want to ask, will Lu Yizhou interrupt the mutual market transactions between the address and the various ethnic groups in the Nanban? ”

Lu Ren opened his mouth wide and replied dumbly: "This is what you hurried to ask me about the address?" Is it important to trade between the address and the Nanban? ”

Zhu Rong's hands slapped the table, and he hurriedly stood up and said, "Why is it not important?" I don't know what happens to the other Nanban clans, but our clan's land is poor, and the grains harvested from hard work every year are simply not enough to feed the clansmen. If Lu Yizhou had cut off the exchanges between the original and the Nanban tribes after occupying the address, wouldn't my clan have to starve and die countless times? Lu Yizhou, my husband and I are here today to warn Lu Yizhou, if Lu Yizhou dares to interrupt the mutual market exchanges with the Nanban tribes, the Nanban tribes will definitely form an alliance to attack the address, and then you Lu Yizhou will not be far away! ”

(PS again, this may be overdone here.) However, the bottle is based on some records in the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" and some legends in Yunnan. According to the "Three Kingdoms Wu Shu? It is recorded in the Biography of Shi Xie that Shi Xie once induced the wealthy Yonghong of Yizhou to move east after taking refuge in Sun Quan, and Yonghong was one of the first people to unite with Meng Huo when he rebelled in the romance of Jianning Taishou, and the Southern Barbarian King Meng Huo was one of the first people to unite with Meng Huo. Therefore, according to the estimation of the bottle, the address of the Han Dynasty is not far from Jianning and Yunnan. In addition, there are many agricultural facilities in Yunnan similar to "Kong Ming Canal" in the name of Zhuge Liang's character, and regardless of whether the Nanban is true or not, it will never rebel or rebel as said in the romance, Zhuge Liang's reputation among the people in Yunnan must be very high. And if you do it carefully, what Zhuge Liang did was to bring advanced agricultural production technology to Yunnan, so that the material life of the aborigines of Nanban was much more sufficient. Based on this calculation, during this period of the fifteenth year of Jian'an, the agricultural productivity of the Nanban region must be very backward, otherwise how could Zhuge Liang be so respected? It may be a bit too nonsense here, but the bottle thinks it's better to make it clear, and this has an impact on the later part of the plot)

Zhu Rong's words made Lu Ren stunned for a long time, and only after a long time did he laugh out loud: "What? If I don't sell you food at this address, will you join forces with the forces of the Southern Barbarians to wage war with me? Interesting, really interesting! Hahaha......"

Zhu Rong's face was cold: "Lu Yizhou, don't think I'm joking!" It is a matter of the survival of all clans, not child's play! ”

Lu Ren thought for a while and smiled: "Yes, yes, I'm really a little scared!" But there are so many Nanban clans, why are only you clans here, and the other clans? If I'm not mistaken, your couple's clan is very weak and they are often bullied by other clans, right? Otherwise, how can the head of a clan come to negotiate with other countries without even bringing a few attendants, (to be continued.) )
