1.32 Gongsun Erxiong
"The State of the Evil Ma Tai has an official position, the second is Mima Sheng, the second is Mima Huozhi, and the second is Nujia Dun." Cui Jun, the Prime Minister of the Left Kingdom, was in charge of diplomatic and foreign affairs, and knew a lot about the State of the Evil Ma Tai: "The State of the Evil Ma Huozhi, this official position is a 'Qing' and 'Dawu'. Ti Xiu should be the name of his person."
"So that's it." Liu Bei nodded happily. There should be no surname "Ti" in China. In other words, this person has a name but no surname. "Tixiu" may also be a transliteration.
"The Kingdom of Japan had long been with our dynasty. During the Guangwu period, he gave the Japanese envoy golden seal. During the period of the late emperor, the Kingdom of Eimatai often traveled to and from the counties of Lelang. Because the art of alchemy was prevalent, from the pre-Qin to the Han Dynasty, there were often alchemists taking boats to sea to seek immortal mountains overseas and seek immortal medicine. Then alchemists arrived in Japan. Over time, the Qin style and Han rituals were also preserved." Cui Jun said.
Liu Bei nodded gently: "What is the national strength of the evil horse and Taiwan?"
"Rumor. The evil Matai is a powerful country for the Japanese. However, since the former emperor, there have been endless conquests and wars in China. The heroine Bei Mihu, or ascended the throne shortly after she ascended the throne. Some people said that the countries on the island were also opposed to each other and could not coexist. Here, there must be something to ask for." Cui Jun said again.
"Let's wait for the messenger to arrive." Liu Bei reminded: "Even if you are a country, you need courtesy. Don't lose the etiquette of the country."
"Here." Cui Jun received the order.
"Report." When the matter ended, a female official entered the palace to report: "Tianshao, Gongsun Du, and the palace gate to ask for a meeting."
"Please hurry."
"Here."
The rich merchant Tian Shao had a water pavilion in Baihu. He had already moved his family to Ji Kingdom. He was one of the royal merchants of Ji King. He became rich by selling "salted wood" alone. He had a ship of ten thousand feet. The Ji Kingdom had a land of thousands of miles, and the city construction never stopped. It can be imagined that the so-called "rich and honor it". Tian Shao also had the "heart of (Lu) Buwei".
Gongsun in the world were all family. After being recommended by King Ji, Gongsun Du made good friends with Tian Shao, and sometimes he had the "spirit of arousing again". However, King Ji had not been in the country for a long time and had no way to repay him. Today, King Ji finally summoned him to the king, and the two hurried to meet him.
"Greetings to the king." The two entered the palace to salute.
"Don't give me a gift, and give me a seat." Liu Bei smiled warmly.
"Thank you, the King." The two were bathed in spring breeze.
"Is it good at home?" Liu Bei asked about family affairs first.
"Everything is fine." Tian Shao replied. His youngest son Tian Hua was appointed as the chief clerk of Ji State. He was also a leader of the royal palace.
If you also hold a palace position, you can obtain "men's registration" and you can enter and exit the palace city during the court meeting. All officials and above have 600 stones. If you have less than 600 stones, you need to "enter the palace by following the imperial edict". For example, the Chen sons who were in charge of one family "entered the palace by following the imperial edict". This is a special case. Ordinary government affairs do not need to enter the palace. You only need to report to the two countries. If you have a Ji Dong Yin, you only need to report to the Shangguan, and you do not need to directly serve the prime minister.
"I haven't seen each other for many years, is the ambition of Shengji still there?" Liu Bei smiled at Gongsun Du.
Gongsun Du replied: "In front of the king, I dare not call him 'xiong'." Gongsun Du's two sons, Gongsun Kang and Gongsun Gong, were all studying in the school. The little daughter Gongsun family also got engaged to Tian Hua. With Tian Shao's support, Gongsun Du also settled in Lou Sang and lived a worry-free life.
"Now there are two counties in Liaodong and Lelang. I want to promote Ji to the prefect. I don't know what to do?" Liu Bei was straightforward.
Gongsun Du sternly and clasped his fists and replied, "I wish to be driven by the king!"
"Very good." Liu Bei asked again: "Choose one of them. Where is Shengji willing to defend?"
"Does the king want to destroy Goguryeo?" Gongsun Du asked.
"No." Liu Bei shook his head.
"Are you going to take all the lands of the Three Hans?" Gongsun Du asked again.
"That's right." Liu Bei nodded happily.
"In this way, I wish to be the prefect of Lelang." Gongsun Du replied.
Geng Yong, the prime minister of the Right Kingdom, asked: "Since you are a hero in Liaodong, why do you have a happy official position?"
"The old king of Fuyu, Wei Qiutai, is my old friend." Gongsun Du replied, "When Wei Qiutai was a prince, he was sent to Luoyang. Later, he ascended the throne and became king. He sent troops several times to rescue Han County. He was old but had great wisdom. When he went to Lelang, he should talk about Fuyu's king and borrowed troops to go south."
"I often hear that 'the lips are dead and the teeth are cold'." Zuo Guo Prime Minister Cui Jun asked again: "If I knew that I crossed the sea and attacked the three Hans, how could King Fuyu sit down and ignore it?"
"The king fought south and north, east and west, but never lost. Before, there was the Great Shanyu of Xianbei, and later, there was the King of Wuhuan of Shanggu, all died and destroyed the country. There was also the King of Gaoche Guiyi and the Marquis of Xianbei Guiyi, who had good friends with Ji, and their national strength increased day by day. The King of Fuyu must know the choice." Gongsun Du replied.
"Very good." Liu Bei made a plan: "In this way, he should promote Ji to the prefect of Lelang."
"Thank you, the king." Gongsun Du was overjoyed and bowed.
Liu Bei looked at Tian Shao again: "He wants to help from Shengji when he goes here."
"I dare not obey orders." Tian Shao also bowed.
The heroes of Ji Kingdom gathered together. Most of them lived in Lou Sang and were often hired by caravans. With Tian Shao's wealth, thousands of people were hired. Lou Sang had all kinds of soldiers, war horses, military horses, military chariots, and attacking and defense weapons. With the promise of King Ji, he could also be equipped with sufficient equipment.
Just wait for the imperial edict from the court, Gongsun Du can lead his troops to his post and guard Lelang County.
After seeing off the two, Geng Yong, the prime minister of the Right Kingdom, asked again: "I dare to ask the lord. Gongsun Du served as the prefect of Lelang and Liaodong, who should he be the one whom?"
Liu Bei has already chosen someone: "He is the 'Gongsun of the World'."
Before he finished speaking, the Prime Minister of the Zuo Kingdom Cui Jun had already realized: "It's the White Horse Gongsun."
"Those who know me are the prime minister." Liu Bei smiled with his hands.
Gongsun Zan was a friend of Liu Bei. He is now the general of Liao and commanded the Liao camp. He has five thousand soldiers and horses in his hand. Among them, there are no less than three thousand private soldiers. He is also two thousand stone officials. I expected that the position of Liaodong prefect is even more attractive. Troubled times are coming, and territory is the top priority.
Without further ado, Liu Bei then wrote a letter in his hand, and sent it to Wuyuan County to reach Liao Daying and asked Gongsun Zan for 600 miles.
By the way, Liu Bei's conquest of the Three Koreans did not have to go far and wide.
The Great Han camp army, such as the Liaodong vassal state Fuliying, Youzhou Yuyang lieutenant generals, had many contacts with Ji. They often bought food, grass, soldiers, armor, family members or business in Ji, and their children or entered the Ji State's Imperial Academy. They were quite familiar with the two prime ministers. What's more, the Ji King was accused of the festival and added Huang Yue to the commander of the conquest. Only a royal order could be transferred to the peninsula to participate in the war.
However, he was arbitrarily engaged in the Han camp army, and he might be framed by He Jin's party. In order to avoid suspicion, Liu Bei recommended Gongsun Erxiong to serve in Liaodong and Lelang to cooperate secretly.
With Your Majesty's cleverness, you will definitely be able to see through it at a glance. However, seeing through does not mean saying it out loud. As long as the "palace-building money" is in place, Your Majesty will be happy to see it. Wait for the price to sell, and the higher the price will be obtained.
Two thousand stone officials, worth 20 million yuan.
How cheap.
As expected, Gongsun Zan accepted the letter from King Ji happily. Liu Bei then went to Luoyang for six hundred miles and ordered the right chief Jia Xu to handle the matter on his behalf.
A few days later, the evil horse and the Taiwan envoy entered the Nangang.
All the way I saw it, I was amazed. Especially the various organs and weapons everywhere in Nangang, which made the Japanese respect them as gods. They took the palace carriage into the inner city, and there were heavy buildings and high pavilions along the way, and there were many pedestrians, which were full of the atmosphere of Shangbang.
I had only been with three Han before. I had never seen such a person or thing.
Enter Ji Royal Palace.
The envoy of the evil horse and Tai Kingdom bowed down and saluted: "Go down to the minister Tixiu, pay homage to the king."
He spoke Chinese.
Liu Bei asked with a smile: "Why can the envoy speak Chinese?"
"My ancestors looked for medicine to land on the island. They were passed down from generation to generation, so they could speak Chinese." Ti Xiu replied.
It was because he traveled to Japan to the east and was behind the pre-Qin alchemist.
