Chapter 1011: The Messenger

The difference between women and men is not just a question of whether there is a bone or not.

In general, women are more emotional than men. Well, to put it more bluntly, it's easier to be sentimental or something.

Xiao Jiwen is definitely enough for a female man in many aspects, but no matter how man, the premise also brings a female character, except for such a thing, you let her act as if nothing happened, it is impossible. But if it were an ordinary woman, she would have been looking for death and life a long time ago.

It is also thanks to Xiao Jiwen's limited knowledge, a flash does not mean that it must be lightning, it may also be a flash, and the characters are not necessarily paintings, or there may be any photos.

Zhou Shaoyu naturally can't bring high-tech products indefinitely, but there is no problem with individual ones, just take photos to commemorate it, it's still no problem.

Well, it's also fortunate that Xiao Jiwen doesn't know, otherwise it would have collapsed.

This is also the most unremarkable thing Zhou Shaoyu has done in the Liang world, but fortunately, he has storage space, and no one here can use a camera, so he is not afraid of accidentally losing it and becoming a 'certain teacher'.

Rao is like this, Xiao Jiwen hasn't slowed down for a while, her mentality is really a little unbearable, and most of the time she is in a daze. Fortunately, there is a reasonable explanation, it's not that I was just drugged some time ago, my head is dazed and groggy, in a daze or something, how normal.

What is the meaning of cutting and untidying and messing, this is it.

Say you don't have a good feeling? That's impossible.

Even if outsiders can understand the burden on Xiao Jiwen's shoulders and the pressure in her heart, they can't relieve half of it. Only Zhou Shaoyu can comfort one or two, and Xiao Yaowen is also willing to confide. This alone is enough to become a special being.

Don't look at Xiao Yao's wife wiping Zhou Shaoyu's neck, but who knows the 'war' she made in her heart. It's a pity that reviving Daliang is the ultimate wish of her life after all, even if she kills Zhou Shaoyu against her will.

The problem is here again, Zhou Shaoyu can't kill this guy! Not only did he not die, but he also jumped out and kept making trouble!

I don't want to reminisce too much about the process, but in short, the mood is up and down, that is, the continuous steep peaks, up and down, up and down......

In fact, it is not difficult to imagine that Xiao Yaowen even wiped Zhou Shaoyu's neck ruthlessly, but now she is in a trance and has delayed the original plan to attack Huofeng, and it is not difficult to see the impact of this matter on her.

Angry? Maybe there was then, but I can't say it now. Regretful? Exasperation? Or something else? Xiao Jiwen couldn't say it herself.

She knows that the current state is very wrong, but she can't control it, she just wants to be quiet for a while, only in this way can she stabilize her mind and continue to fight wholeheartedly for the revival of Daliang.

"Princess, the Tibetan envoy is visiting." The maid's report interrupted Xiao Yu's daze.

"Tibetan envoy?" Xiao Jiwen was stunned for a moment, and she really couldn't understand why the Tubo envoy came to her, obviously she had already married Daliang. "Set up a feast, I'll go later."

No matter what, what should be seen or seen, if there is a chance to win over, or let Tubo maintain enough neutrality, Xiao Jiwen will not give up. Temporarily tidying up her mood and changing into luxurious clothes, Xiao Jiwen had a serious expression and stepped out, she was going to the meeting for a while.

The banquet has been arranged, but the people from Tubo will not move the chopsticks in advance, but sit quietly and wait, seeing the arrival of Xiao Jiwen, immediately get up, kneel on one knee to show respect, and respectfully said: "The envoy of Tubo talks about the eldest princess of Shu in Liang. ”

On the recklessness of the cocoon, it is an official position in Tibet, which can basically be understood as the deputy minister. As for the prime minister, it is directly about the prime minister. Laizan is the name of the deputy minister of Tibet.

As the deputy prime minister's supreme envoy, it can be regarded as giving Xiao Auntie enough face.

However, perhaps on the surface of the understanding, what people do is indeed impeccable, but as the topic deepens further, Xiao Jiwen can't wait to kill her directly.

"I can understand that you are threatening this palace?" Xiao Jiwen held back her anger and said coldly.

Lai Zan chuckled, shook his head and said: "No, this is a win-win way, I have been silent in Tibet for a long time, lack of resources, the countries of the Western Regions, have always looked forward to my Tibetan horses, but now they are all under the command of the princess, not to avoid conflicts, and the princess is at odds, Zampu specially ordered me to send an envoy to Chang'an, hoping to resolve this matter peacefully, I don't ask too much for Tibet, as long as the princess can make some compensation to my Tibet, otherwise ......"

The countries of the Western Regions are looking to the head of the Tibetan horse? Joke! That's hundreds of years old! And it's only for a short period of time, how big a face is to dare to say that. Having said so much, it's not about threatening Xiao Jiao's wife with the safety of the Western Regions, if you want to live in peace, you can, meet our conditions, otherwise, Tubo will directly send troops to attack the Western Regions!

Does Xiao Jiwen hope that there will be chaos in the Western Regions? Of course not!

It's easy to collect the countries of the Western Regions and become their own money bags. Once the war is completely chaotic, it means that Xiao Jiwen will enter the tense days again. Develop? Expansion? The speed will slow down again.

However, even so, it doesn't mean that she will compromise!

If it were someone else in power, he might endure it for a while, and no matter how bad it was, he would further discuss and delay the time, but Xiao Jiwen would never do so.

My Great Liang is the only orthodox state of the Heavenly Empire. Maybe she only controls a few states and has limited strength, but she is by no means at the mercy of others! Not to mention a Tibetan who has just recovered a little vitality, even if it is a Tibetan in its heyday, what about it?

If you want to fight, then fight! I am a dignified pillar, and I will never bow my head to any unscrupulous forces, and I don't think I have half a point of compromise! The kingdom of God is the kingdom of God! It should have its own posture, its own domineering, and not be subject to any restraint and provocation!

The words are not speculative for more than half a sentence, and the first conversation between Xiao and Tubo broke up unhappily.

However, all this was not unexpected by the old Tibetan Zampu Tashi Chide.

It is true that under the condition that a peace alliance has been reached with Gao Yuyao's side, it seems that it is not appropriate to send an envoy to Xiao Yuyao's place to ask for benefits, at least Gao Yuyao will definitely be very unhappy at that time, but is that important?

For Tashi Chide, there are too many things that Tubo lacks now, but he will not mind if he can extort a little benefit, only what is in his own pocket is true.

Besides, whether it's Gao Yuyao or Xiao Jiwen, even if they are both offended? In the final analysis, the current Liang has no spare strength to find trouble in Tubo, but betrayal has no price, so betrayal has become natural, isn't it?

The big deal is that after receiving the benefits of Xiao Yuyao, he still attacked the Western Regions, so that he not only got the benefits of Xiao Yuyao for nothing, but also further curried favor with Gao Yuyao so that he would not be completely offended, and he could get benefits by attacking the Western Regions, why not?

Of course, if Xiao Jiwen is tough enough and will not compromise, it doesn't matter, because Tashi Chide planned it from the beginning, and the Western Regions will inevitably fight.

That is, there is nothing to threaten Zhou Shaoyu, otherwise, maybe he will also send a messenger to blackmail him. After all, there will be no loss, just send a messenger, what a big deal.

After a few more contacts, Lezan could see that Xiao Jiwen would definitely not compromise. Without hesitation, he left and left, and the next stop was to go straight to Luoyang, ready to ask to see Huofeng.

Xiao Jiwen and Huo Feng are mortal enemies, and this matter is well known.

Today's Western Regions is basically under the control of Xiao Jiwen, once Tubo sends troops, Xiao Jiwen will put on a posture of support even if she is unwilling. In order to ensure the victory of Tibet, the necessary containment became necessary.

As the saying goes, the enemy of an enemy is a friend, and this may not be all true, but there is definitely merit.

Tubo only needs to express a message of kindness to Huofeng, and contain Xiao Jiao while Tubo sends troops, it seems that everything is beneficial to Tubo, but it is also beneficial to Huofeng.

First of all, the fire phoenix is just a rebellion after all, and the fire phoenix is basically also called the pseudo-empress, if there are foreign countries willing to establish diplomatic relations with it and recognize its identity at this time, this symbolism is very large. Normally, no one would say no.

In addition, as long as it is guaranteed that Tubo succeeds in disrupting and plundering the Western Regions, it also means that Xiao Jiao's power is weakened.

I have to say that the old Zanpu Tashi Chide, who has been tortoising for nearly a lifetime, sees everything very thoroughly. It's a pity, no matter how powerful she is, she would never have thought that the empress who would be good in Huofeng would give up and not do it, and she had already taken refuge in Zhou Shaoyu in private.

Of course, all this, Zhou Shaoyu, who was still in the Eastern Han Dynasty, could not know.

After collecting the interest that day, Zhou Shaoyu naturally traveled back to the Eastern Han Dynasty, and he had no wings, so it was impossible for him to slip away from the courtyard where Xiao Yao's wife was under layers of guards, so he could only go back to the Eastern Han Dynasty for temporary refuge, and wait for the opportunity to come back and then leave.

It's just that when he came back this time, Zhou Shaoyu was also a little confused.

Just two days after he came back, seeing that Ban Zhao always looked like he wanted to say something, as if he was about to say something, Zhou Shaoyu took the initiative to ask, and then ......

"Zhou Lang doesn't know, the little lady of the Cao family lives in our house, and this matter has spread, and there are rumors...... "Ban Zhao said.

What is the gossip?

An unmarried woman, in order not to marry, she is alone and doesn't go anywhere, so she runs to you to 'take refuge', why? Is it because you are a brother-in-law? The reason is as simple as that? Who believes!

Unless it is said that someone is dead and desperate, it is almost the same, but her situation is so suspicious, could it be that you really don't have half a personal relationship?

Well, it sounds like a lot of sense.

Zhou Shaoyu was wronged, but he couldn't explain it, it would only get darker and darker, even if he drove people away now, it was already too late, he had been living for a while, and misunderstandings and rumors had already arisen.

If it is said that running away from home only increases the difficulty of Cao Xiaogu's marriage in the future, then now, it is even more difficult to marry, no, it should be said that it is basically difficult to marry. Even if Zhou Shaoyu didn't give up and found a matchmaker to try to tell Cao Xiaogu a suitable family affair to make the matter self-defeating, he was all rejected by those matchmakers.

Just kidding, don't you really want to be a matchmaker in this business? The better you do, the higher your value will be in the future, and if you don't have enough money, please don't move at all.

And in such a situation as Cao Xiaogu, even if the matchmaker succeeds, what then? Because normally, no one would marry a woman who ran away from home and had serious rumors with another man. If the woman's reputation is too bad, it will also involve the matchmaker who said that the matchmaker, and the matchmaker is not stupid, so she will not accept such an order.

Shaoyu is in a hurry next week, what should I do?

Well, in fact, Zhou Shaoyu's speed of coming back this time is a bit fast, after all, he only went to Daliang for a day and didn't arrive, in other words, the Eastern Han Dynasty has only been here for a month, and Ban Zhao has not finished many things, Zhou Shaoyu will come back, otherwise, I can't wait for Zhou Shaoyu to come back, Cao Xiaogu is already a member of the Zhou family.

Now that Zhou Shaoyu is back early, naturally things are going on half-heartedly, and Ban Zhao can only change his strategy appropriately, which also has a plot that gives Zhou Shaoyu a headache.

How can it be said that after Zhou Shaoyu took in Aunt Cao, he also swore in a letter that he would find a good family for Aunt Cao, but the result? In a blink of an eye, the matter between him and Cao's sister-in-law was unclear, which made him explain to Cao's father and Cao's mother.

In fact, if Zhou Shaoyu inquires in detail or thinks more, he can find many things that are wrong. Aunt Cao has always lived in Anling, Luoyang is not familiar with life, and no one knows her, how can there be any rumors of going out, and there is no place to know. This alone is well worth studying.

To put it bluntly, everything is just Ban Zhao's words, there are no rumors outside at all, as for the matchmaker, don't forget, Ban Zhao has already invited a circle of matchmakers, precocious, although the people recommended by others are not suitable, but there is no hatred, besides, who will get along with money, Ban Zhao will buy at will, that is not just to easily follow Ban Zhao's arrangement to design and speak and act.

This is not a loss, but a big profit, how good.

That is, Zhou Shaoyu trusted Ban Zhao too much, and he didn't think in other directions at all, so he ignored too many things.

On the same day, Ban Zhao proposed to take a look at his hometown, Zhou Shaoyu didn't have any opinions, and just sent Cao Xiaogu back, and by the way, he discussed Cao's marriage with Cao's father and Cao's mother, at least to explain the clear clouds between himself and Cao's sister-in-law.

So Zhou Shaoyu took Ban Zhao and Cao Xiaogu back to Anling in a carriage, but unfortunately, everything was just a good routine involving Ban Zhao.

Facts have proved that although Ban Zhao is a good girl, it doesn't mean that she has no talent in 'crooked ways', no, there is no problem with one ring and one ring, as for the next step, it is natural to start persuading Cao's father and Cao's mother.

If the whole thing comes out, how can people easily agree to marry Cao Xiaogu as a concubine.

Well, meanness is a little mean, but Ban Zhao doesn't feel that he is wrong.

Originally, it was already difficult to marry a suitable partner for Sister-in-law Cao when she left home. In this case, it is better to marry Zhou Shaoyu. As for the relationship problem, their relationship is not bad, as for whether it is the love of men and women, is it very important? When you get married and live together in the future, you will gradually have it.
