Zhi Xuan

Chapter 57

The discussion on the dowry and dowry went on for three full days.

During this period, the officials of both sides continued to increase their weight, vowing to overwhelm each other.

The Marquis of Bei'an had long expected Zhao Hao's marriage, so naturally he would not be stingy about paying for it.The officials in Zhao's land are rich and powerful, and everyone is full of confidence, so they just need to replace the gold with bamboo slips, and one roll is a box of gold.

The officials of Zhidi were not to be outdone, although Xiyuanhou was still kept in the dark, but the matter was settled, he had to take the money if he didn't want to.Zhi Xuan was proficient in digging pits for Marquis Xiyuan, and his subordinates followed suit and became more proficient day by day.

Regardless of whether Xi Yuanhou is willing or not, first call out the price, even for the face of the big country, he must take the money!

Seeing the plans of the subordinates, Zhi Xuan couldn't help sighing, the scumbag is really pitiful.But he didn't intend to speak out to stop it.If there are one and two cheating things, there will naturally be three and four.What's more, Xi Yuanhou's attitude towards his son is really scum, and Zhi Xuan will not be embarrassed at all if he is tricked, and he will not be soft-hearted.

After three days, on the fourth day, the subordinate officials finally discussed the specific regulations, and the final figures were astonishing.

Both Zhixuan and Zhao Hao prepared the dowry together. According to the standard of a son-in-law, the two together can be compared to the tax revenue of a middle-ranking vassal state for two or three years.

That doesn't count.

According to the suggestions of the subordinates, besides the property, there needs to be a venue.

The borders of Xiyuan Kingdom cannot be moved, and neither can the borders of Bei'an Kingdom. The buffer zone between the two countries must also be cautious.

After thinking about it, the two sides discussed together and decided to go north to the grassland, search through Rongdi's territory, find a place that is close to both sides, and the water plants are relatively lush, and it will be used as a place for the wedding.After they get married, they can build a city in this place. It is not convenient for the two to live in other countries for a long time, so they can meet here every year.

"good!"

"Very good!"

The officials who put forward this proposal were unanimously approved, and the negotiators of both sides gave their thumbs up, saying that this proposal is quite good and very implementable.As for what Di Rong will think, will he cry and complain that the Central Plains people are unreasonable, is it important?It doesn't matter at all.

So, after Zhi Xuan and Zhao Hao nodded their heads, the officials jointly wrote this proposal and recorded it in the marriage certificate.

Rong Di on the grassland never imagined that without their knowledge, the tribe was about to usher in an unprecedented sweep.The reason was not that a certain tribe wanted to die and went south, but that the two border guards wanted to form a marriage alliance and needed to find a suitable place to hold the wedding and build a wedding room by the way.

Di Rong has always been the only one who went south, and it is rare to see princes go north to grab land and build cities.It is common to be able to hunt, and often leave after hunting.Even if they occupy pastures, they seldom move to settle down.

Given the current situation, the land is vast and the population sparsely populated, and there is still a large amount of uninhabited land in the Central Plains, so no one would want to move to the grasslands.If the monarch and the clan have similar ideas, they will most likely be met with an iron fist by the people of the country.

There is no problem in exterminating Di Rong, so don't even think about going to the grassland to drink the wind!

The marriage alliance between Zhi Xuan and Zhao Hao set a precedent again.

The people who proposed the marriage letter would never have imagined how much impact this proposal of building a city on the grassland would have in the future, and what major changes it would bring to the countries of the Central Plains.

The important things are achieved, and the next step is to perfect the details.

The subordinates changed from the previous tense situation and didn't care about the minutiae. Instead, they gave in to each other, and soon became harmonious, as if it was someone else who was throwing dangerous objects at each other.

On the sixth day, the marriage letter was drafted.

Zhi Xuan and Zhao Hao watched it separately, and after careful discussion, they both agreed that there was no problem, and immediately handed it over to the clan to transcribe and burn it according to etiquette.

Zhixuan had no clan members by his side, so he could only be replaced temporarily by a doctor.

Fortunately, the next doctors are all born in the clan, have a long history of family education, and are very familiar with the format of documents.Even if there is something you can't be sure of, you can ask the clansman brought by Zhao Hao for advice.The other party will not keep secrets in this matter and is very happy to help.

On the tenth day, the marriage contract was formally completed, and more than half of the marriage alliance was completed.The reason why not all of them is to copy the marriage certificate again, send it to Xiducheng and Beiducheng respectively, and give it to Xiyuanhou and Bei'anhou for review, and at the same time inform the whole court that Gongzi Xuan and Gongzi Hao have reached a marriage contract and will get married.

Both Zhi Xuan and Zhao Hao knew that things would not go smoothly if the marriage certificate was sent back.

The resistance in the Western Capital City is obvious, and the attitude of Xi Yuanhou is also unknown.Although the Marquis of Bei'an knew about it and supported his son's decision, he kept concealing it from the big clans in the country. Once the news is announced, these families who intend to marry Zhao Hao will definitely not let it go.

Both of them understand the resistance they will face, and they both have personalities that will not give in easily.

When discussing the marriage alliance, the officials of both sides did not want to give in to each other, but there was no delay.Fulfill conditions as quickly as possible while fighting for your side.As long as an agreement is reached, it will be written in the marriage letter immediately, without delay.

Under normal circumstances, it often takes several months to talk about marriages between vassal states, and it is not uncommon to calculate in years.

The marriage alliance between Zhi Xuan and Zhao Hao continued to break the rules. From the time the two met to the completion of the marriage contract, it took no more than a month.

This speed is really amazing, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a rocket.

The marriage letter was completed and confirmed by both parties. There was no problem from the writing to the content, and there was nothing wrong with it. The clan members were relieved.

The historian is still writing hard.

In just a few days, the bamboo slips carved by the historian filled three large wooden boxes.Even marriages between major countries rarely have so many records.When he returns to the clan, it will definitely open the eyes of the clansmen.If the matter is spread to other countries, it will also become famous among colleagues.

On the day when the marriage certificate was completed, Zhi Xuan and Zhao Hao announced the news in public, and only then did many people know the real purpose of the two sons' coming here.

"Congratulations, young master!"

It can be said that there is no precedent in history for the two sons of great powers to form a marriage alliance and complete the marriage contract within just one month.

While cheering, everyone was discussing, most of them didn't think of the political aspect, only from their own considerations, the marriage of Gong Zixuan and Gong Zihao will definitely make the frontier more stable, and it will be more convenient to clean up Di Rong.

As for the fact that the two are both men, it is not within the scope of consideration of everyone at all.

The two sons are willing, so what's the matter with others?

Thinking about it this way, the whole camp became more and more happy, and there were endless cheers, praising the wisdom and wisdom of the two young masters.

"Have a banquet tonight!"

Seeing everyone's high spirits, Zhi Xuan and Zhao Hao decided to hold a banquet to have fun with their subordinates.

"Thank you, son!"

The cheers sounded again, louder than before, deafening for a while.

To hold the banquet, the cooks of the two battalions were called together to dig stoves in the open space and set up cauldrons in rows.

Armored soldiers who are good at hunting come out in full force, searching for prey around them.Slaves carried fishing nets and ropes and followed the team, and many of them also rolled out wheelbarrows, specially designed to transport prey.

With the concerted efforts of both parties, a herd of deer was discovered not long after.

The golden eagle brought by Zhi Xuan hovered in the air, and two strong gray wolves galloped on the withered grass, locking up the herd of deer, and threw down a strong stag before the crowd.

The movement of hunting deer attracted a brown bear.

This bear was huge in size, its hind legs stood upright nearly three meters, and it rushed towards it with a roar, looking very frightening.

The golden eagle chirped in mid-air, its wings stretched out, casting a large shadow under it.

The gray wolf ran around the brown bear, constantly attracting its attention.Sometimes it growled in a low voice, bared its sharp teeth, and had fresh deer blood around its mouth.

Zhi Xuan and Zhao Hao drove out of the camp together, and knowing that a brown bear was spotted ahead, they respectively ordered the drivers to speed up.

"drive!"

The drivers looked at each other and waved the reins at the same time, as if to identify each other.The war horse spread its four hooves, pulling the chariot and galloping forward, and the bodies were almost neck-to-neck.

Soldiers from both sides have surrounded the brown bear.

Facing the fierce behemoth, common people and slaves were ordered to back off.They don't have leather armor protection on their bodies, and if they are shot or bitten by bear claws, they will be seriously injured if they don't die.

"Fire arrows!"

When Zhi Xuan and Zhao Hao arrived, soldiers from both sides were organizing arrow shooting.

The brown bear's fur is thick, and the surface is rubbed with thick pine oil. It is harder than an iron plate, and it is difficult for ordinary arrows to shoot through.Even if the arrow penetrated through the fur by chance, it would be blocked by the thick fat, unable to cause fatal injuries, but completely enraged the giant beast.

Seeing that shooting arrows was useless, the soldiers quickly drew out their long knives and formed a team of three or five people, regardless of Zhi or Zhao, to fight against the brown bear together.

Everyone regretted not bringing out the halberd.

Who would have thought that there would be bears everywhere, or such a huge brown bear!

The soldiers were well-trained and quickly surrounded the brown bear to cover each other. They went up and slashed a few times, specifically on the brown bear's thighs and buttocks.

It's not that they have special attack methods, but that they can't get close to the front of the brown bear.Someone rushed up before, but now they are lying on the ground.Fortunately, he survived, his arms and shoulders were injured, and he was beaten to death by rolling in embarrassment.

The incisions on his body kept increasing, not fatal but quite painful.The brown bear fell into a complete rage, fell to the ground on all fours, roared and rushed towards the soldier on the opposite side.

"Fire arrows!"

Zhao Hao fired his bow in the car, and an arrow shot through the brown bear's right eye.

Zhao Di's soldiers followed the order to release arrows, shooting a wave of arrows, effectively stopping the brown bear.

Just when Zhao Hao drew his bow again, another loud roar came from next to his ear, and a bigger brown bear appeared in front of everyone.

The brown bear smelled the smell of blood and rushed over. Seeing the miserable condition of the other brown bear, it immediately let out a roar and rushed up like a tank.

The soldiers didn't dare to approach, they all avoided and tried to fight.

The golden eagle swooped down from the air and grabbed the top of the brown bear's head with one claw, but unfortunately it missed.

Two gray wolves were fighting with the injured brown bear, and were blocked by the second brown bear, and they were about to be patted into meatloaf.

At the critical moment, Zhi Xuan grabbed the clay pot on the car, stuffed it to Rong You, pointed at the brown bear opposite, and said, "Throw it, throw it on your head!"

Rong shook off his arm and threw out the clay pot with a loud shout.

"Continue, don't stop!" Zhi Xuan handed over the second pot.

Rong You continued to throw away his arms, and threw out three clay pots one after another.

The two brown bears are huge, and Rong You is strong enough to hit the clay pot on the body even if it falls on the top of the head.

The clay pots were broken one after another, and a large amount of medicinal powder and ointment spilled out.Part of it falls into the eyes, mouth and nose of the brown bear, and immediately exerts the medicinal effect, causing severe pain, and then produces a certain anesthetic effect.

The brown bear kept shaking its neck, patting its head and body with its front paws, trying to wipe off the powder.

Zhao Hao fired his bow again, blinding the injured brown bear's second eye.The soldiers took the opportunity to pounce on the injured brown bear with knives, bows and arrows.

Unexpectedly, the brown bear who appeared last took the opportunity to rush out of the encirclement, and rushed towards Zhi Xuan with the effect of the medicine.

Two gray wolves tried to block it, but to no avail.The golden eagle flew down from the sky and grabbed the brown bear's eyes, but unfortunately it failed.

Zhidi people quickly surrounded and organized to protect Zhixuan.

Zhao Hao drew the bowstring fully and shot three consecutive arrows, blinding the brown bear in one eye and penetrating the side of the brown bear's neck, but still failed to stop it.

The situation was extremely critical, seeing the brown bear rushing past several Zhidi soldiers, Zhao Hao drew out his long sword, jumped off the chariot, and rushed towards the huge brown bear.

"My lord!" The soldiers on both sides exclaimed at the same time.

Amid the exclamation, Zhi Xuan's chariot was overturned, and Rong You and the driver were thrown out together.

Zhi Xuan got up from the ground, and the brown bear's claws were already approaching.Before he could stand up in time, he could only kneel down on one knee, drew out his iron sword, and stabbed forward suddenly.

The stench enveloped the top of his head, and Zhi Xuan could hardly breathe.

Bright red blood slid down the blade, the roar of the brown bear suddenly stopped, and its huge body fell forward like a rock.

Zhi Xuan didn't care to take back his weapon, and rolled out in a bit of embarrassment, avoiding the behemoth that was pressing down on him.

With a plop, the brown bear fell to the ground and pressed the iron sword stuck in its chest into its body, not even leaving the hilt.There is also a sword stuck behind the brown bear, the hilt is dazzling fiery red, which is exactly what Zhao Hao wears.

The brown bear fell to the ground and convulsed several times, blood flowed from its mouth and nose, and finally passed away.

After hunting two brown bears at one time, Zhi Xuan and Zhao Hao were rushed into the chariot, and cheers resounded like a tsunami.

"Young master is brave!"
