Two days later, all the details of the tea-horse trade have been negotiated, and the gold medal talismans awarded to Yu Leijiao, Yang Wanwan, and their talismans have also been made. The number and value of the talismans received by each family are also different due to their different strengths.

They were not the same, but because they were divided fairly according to their strength, each family had no objections and happily received the talisman and said goodbye.

Outside the city gate, everyone's figures quickly disappeared from the sight of Yang Qing and Ma Dai, and they slowly rode back to the city.

"General Zhonghua, I think among the three big clans of Lei and Yang, the Lei family and the Yang family are the closest to the Han people. The Fu family is still a little behind." Yang Qing said calmly on horseback.

Ma Dai nodded slightly: "It is understandable that the Lei family and the Yang family have surrendered to us at least eight years ago. During the Battle of Xiabian in the 23rd year of Jian'an, Lei Ding had already led 10,000 Di people to respond to my brother

, which contained Cao Jun's main force in Xia Bian.

The Yang family even followed my brother in revolting against Xia Houyuan in the 16th year of Jian'an, so he can be considered an old man of my Ma family.

As for the Fu family, it was only when I was stationed here in the past few years that I got close to them. Not all of the leaders in the tribe were people who admired me, the Han Dynasty. I heard that Fu Jian had a cousin, Fu Shuang, who was quite inclined to the pseudo-Wei Dynasty.

Over there, so the relationship between their family and us is still somewhat distant."

"So that's it." Yang Qing nodded and said, thinking that the interethnic relations in the Yinping area of ​​Wudu were already so complicated. I wonder how complicated the Qiang and Hu in Liangzhou were?

Not thinking about such distant matters for the time being, Yang Qing continued: "Among the envoys of Qingguan, Yang Wanwan has the most outstanding talent. He has a clear mind, quick reactions, and good eloquence. He is a person who can be cultivated and won over. Zhonghua

General, please pay more attention to this person in the future."

Ma Dai said curiously: "Yang Wanwan? I didn't expect that Mingzhi would praise him so much. This guy's martial arts are not bad, and he took charge of tribal affairs early. He is indeed outstanding. Anyway, it seems that I will have to deal with this person more in the future.

"

"Haha, just pay a little attention to General Zhong Hua. Maybe he will be useful in the future."

What Yang Qing and Ma Dai didn't know was that in history, there was a great-grandson after Yang Wanwan who was even more remarkable. Taking advantage of the chaos in the world at the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, he established the Qiuchi Kingdom in Yinping, Wudu.

Later, although the Qiuchi Kingdom was destroyed by Fu Jian, its descendants were very tenacious and established the Houqiuchi Kingdom, Wudu Kingdom, Wuxing Kingdom, Yinping Kingdom and other political regimes one after another. Until the Zhou and Sui Dynasties, the Di people of the Yang family

The regime was ended by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian, which is very legendary.

After completing the tea and horse trade, Yang Qing's main purpose of coming to Ju County has been achieved. He has been here for seven or eight days, and it is time to return to Hanzhong. However, before returning, he still needs Ma Dai's help for one thing.

"Why don't Mingzhi hang around for a few more days so that I can fulfill my friendship as a landlord? I've been busy with official duties these days, so I can't lead Mingzhi around the city.

There are still some beautiful places in Ju County. I will stay for a few more days and take you and others to visit tomorrow." Hearing that Yang Qing was leaving, Ma Dai diligently persuaded him to stay.

Yang Qing thanked him and said, "I appreciate General Zhonghua's kindness. However, I have already stayed in Wudu for nearly ten days. Hanzhong is busy with official business and I dare not stay any longer. Ju County is so close to Hanzhong, so I will have time to decide in the future."

I will bother the general again."

"Well, if that's the case, then I won't force him to stay in the Ming Dynasty." Ma Dai also knew that Yang Qing, the prefect of Hanzhong, had heavy responsibilities and complicated things, so he stopped staying.

"Tonight, Mr. Ma is hosting a banquet at his residence to practice the Ming Dynasty."

Yang Qing thanked him and said, "Thank you, General Zhonghua." Thinking of something, he added, "By the way, General Zhonghua, Qing has one more thing that he would like to ask the general for help with, but it's hard to avoid saying it out loud. Qing really doesn't know how to say it.

"

Ma Dai said with a smile: "If you have anything to do, just ask. Not to mention that Dai and you hit it off right away. Even if you are entrusted by Prime Minister Zhuge to send Dai, why not? As long as Dai can help, he will definitely help."

"You're welcome if you are so clear." Yang Qing nodded slightly and said, "Qing always knew that General Zhonghua's house had good relations with many Qiang and Hu tribes in Liangzhou, and General Hussar used to have great prestige among the Qiang and Hu tribes.

Gao, Qiang and Hu soldiers are all called the mighty generals because of their bravery and invincibility. It can be said that the Ma family has many old connections in Liangzhou.

Therefore, the Qing Dynasty wanted to send someone to Liangzhou to inquire about it with the help of the general's relationship, but General Zhonghua didn't know

Can you make it easier?"

Ma Dai pondered for a moment, then laughed and said: "I thought it was nothing, but it turned out to be such a small thing, not a boast. In the Qiang and Hu territories, the words of my Ma family still have some weight. This matter is easy. I will let the people below do their best."

Cooperate."

In fact, Ji Han has already taken action on the matter of contacting the Qiang and Hu people in Liangzhou. In addition to the Youwei of the Prime Minister's Office who have been operating in Liangzhou for many years, the court's biggest support at present is to use the Ma family's influence in Liangzhou. Ma Chao

Ma Dai, the two heads of the Ma family, supervised the town of Ju County for this purpose, so it can be said that the imperial court now has considerable means to recruit the Qiang and Hu.

The reason why Yang Qing sent people to Liangzhou to spy on the truth was not because it was unnecessary, but because he wanted to take the initiative to grasp first-hand information.

In the future Northern Expedition, although Liangzhou's intelligence could be relied on by the Youwei Mansion and the Ma Family, it would not be as convenient as having his own channels. After all, he was not yet at the level of a court official, so the issue of authority could not be ignored.

Yang Qing cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, General Zhonghua. You're welcome, then." After saying that, he waved to Wu Que, who was guarding him more than a dozen steps away.

"Fujun."

"General Ma."

Wu Que was ordered to run over quickly and greet everyone one by one.

"General Zhonghua, this is my personal guard Wu Que. He is leading the team to Liangzhou this time." Yang Qing pointed at Wu Que and introduced.

Ma Dai nodded and shouted to the accompanying guards in the distance: "Here comes someone."

An armored sergeant about thirty years old came over. Yang Qing recognized that this was Ma Dai's personal commander, but he never knew his name.

"Mingzhi, this is my personal guard commander Ma Cang, just let this little brother Wu find him."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ma Dai said to Ma Cang again: "Meng Qing, Mr. Yang is planning to send this little brother Wu to Liangzhou for business. Please cooperate with the Qiang and Hu."

Please make sure to ensure the safety of this trip."

"No." Ma Cang glanced at Wu Que and immediately accepted the order.

Wu Que took the initiative to meet Ma Cang and bowed, and the two of them retreated to discuss it themselves. The matter was settled, and Yang Qingju County and his party were in a happy mood. He was in a good mood and could not help but drink a few more drinks at the farewell banquet in the evening.

I originally planned to say goodbye early in the morning, but I didn’t expect that it was almost noon after I woke up, so I had to have lunch again at Ma Dai’s invitation. Fortunately, it was a casual dinner and everyone hurriedly said goodbye after eating. If it had been later, it would have been before dark today.

I'm afraid I won't be able to make it back to Mianyang.

"Have Yang Mingzhi's men made arrangements?" Ma Dai saw Yang Qing off and asked immediately when he returned to the house and saw that Ma Cang had returned.

Ma Cang clasped his fists and replied: "Back to the general, I have arranged for my subordinates to follow Wu Que to Liangzhou. I have also given instructions that our people will only lead the way and do nothing else."

"Well, you did a good job." Ma Dai said with satisfaction: "You should worry more about this matter. Being able to gain Yang Ming's favor will be very beneficial to our Ma family in the future. We will also have one more person to help us in the court in the future."

Talk." After speaking, his tone became much softer.

Since the death of Ma Dai's brother Ma Chao, the status of their Ma family in the court has been much lower. Although Ma Chao's sister is the wife of General Zhao Yun, and Ma Chao's daughter is also married to Liang Wang Liu Li, the power in the court has now been transferred to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

, the Ma family did not have much connections in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so Ma Dai tried his best to make good friends with Yang Qing in order to ensure that the lintel of the Ma family would not fall.

Ma Cang was also a member of the Ma clan and Ma Dai's confidant, so he understood the connection and immediately replied solemnly: "General, don't worry, I understand."
