Gongsun Sang and the others were caught off guard, their expressions all changed.
Of course Zhang Zhen was unwilling.
Although it was nothing for a man to have three wives and four concubines, he never thought about taking in concubines. What's more, Hauge is still a "married daughter"?
Although Hauge was a barbarian leader, how could his daughter be a concubine? Either a concubine or a wife. How could he divorce Li Ya?
Gongsun Sang quickly winked at Zhang Zhen, signaling you to stop talking. Then he raised his hand and said: "Master Hou doesn't know something. Zhang Baihu is already married. His wife is the adopted daughter of the King of Han."
"What's the point? Isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? Well. Just let my daughter be an equal wife." Hauge waved his hand and said straightforwardly and nonchalantly.
Gongsun Sang smiled bitterly, equal wife? Fortunately, this bird boy can think of it. Either a wife or a concubine, how can there be an equal wife?
This Marquis Sushun may have learned about the Han marriage system through storytellers.
Gongsun Sang took a deep breath and explained it to Hauge in detail. Hauge looked unhappy and said: "Equal wife, equal wife. It means that the status is equal to that of the wife. I have heard that the Han people have this kind of marriage system before, how come they don't have it? Could it be that you look down on me?"
There is indeed something wrong with this person's brain.
Gongsun Sang thought to himself, at the same time, she immediately replied on her face: "This is absolutely not the case. Since it is the good intention of the Marquis, then I will take the place of Zhang Baihu and thank you very much."
Zhang Zhen's expression changed drastically and he was about to speak. Gongsun Sang glared at him.
Lu Yanxun was standing aside and felt that this thing was really fantastic. How could this barbarian think that he would act so unscrupulously one after another, even if he entered the Han system in the future? I'm afraid that sooner or later I'll make a mistake and get stabbed.
"Okay, Master Gongsun. You will stay here for three days with good food and drink, and then go back to Han. Zhang Zhen will stay here with me, and I will arrange for him to get married to my daughter."
Hauge turned his anger into joy and said happily.
"Okay." Gongsun Sangke responded politely.
immediately. Hauge arranged for Gongsun Sang, Zhang Zhen and Lu Yanxun to stay in a house in the city. Arriving at the main room, Zhang Zhen said anxiously before sitting down: "Master Gongsun, how can I marry the daughter of Marquis Sushun as an equal wife? If I return to the Han Kingdom, where will my wife be placed?"
Gongsun Sang waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "We'll talk about it after we get back. Either the king orders her to be a common wife, with a status second only to the head wife. To put it bluntly, she's still a concubine."
"Or buy another mansion to accommodate her. There are two mansions, and Zhang Baihu's wife and she will take care of their own affairs."
"These are small things. Put national affairs first."
At this point, Gongsun Sang raised his head and said seriously to Zhang Zhen: "Zhang Baihu. This is an opportunity. As Hauge's son-in-law, you automatically become Hauge's confidant. When Hauge raises his army in the future, you will Can exert influence.”
"And Mr. Lu (Lu Yanxun), as well as the subordinates you brought this time. They will all stay in Sushun and be your helpers. I only need spies from the Imperial City Department to escort me back."
After finishing speaking, Gongsun Sang himself became excited.
Although things are bizarre, the results are not bad.
Zhang Zhen was tall and majestic, and was chosen as his son-in-law by the barbarian leader.
How wonderful.
"Brother. I think Lord Gongsun is right. In Meng Yuan, a son-in-law is an extremely important member of the family. In some cases, a son-in-law can even inherit the position of tribal leader. I don't know what the situation is in Sushun. .But the status of son-in-law is definitely not light either. He has a lot to do."
Lu Yanxun pinched his chin, with a look of excitement on his face, and said: "Brother, don't you always say that you have to rely on the horse in your hand to make achievements? If you don't dare to compete with the king, you have to be an enemy of ten thousand people and win consecutive battles? ?This is a big opportunity.”
"Wait until the fight breaks out. Because of your status as son-in-law, you may lead one or two thousand men to lead the Sushun people in a fierce battle with the Mongolian people."
After hearing this, Zhang Zhen didn't know how to answer. Debating is not something I am good at, and it sounds like the pros outweigh the cons.
But I always feel sorry for my cousin.
Zhang Zhen is brave, but in this kind of matter, he is just a puppet. The group commanded by Gongsun Sang turned around.
Three days later. Gongsun Sang happily embarked on his way home with the spies from the Imperial City Division, leaving Zhang Zhen and Lu Yanxun behind in the Sushun tribe.
At the same time, under the command of Hauge's confidant Jin Tie, Sushun began to prepare the supplies needed for the war. Hauge didn't say a word to the outside world.
No one knew that Hauge had surrendered to the King of Han and planned to raise an army.
Spring passes and autumn comes.
God will reward you with food.
This year Liaodong has another big harvest. Although the Han River Basin in Goguryeo suffered floods, other places were not greatly affected.
The production of food is not only self-sufficient. There is still plenty. Lu Sheng sent civilian men to collect part of the grain and sent it to Jiang County, the capital, as military supplies.
When the harvest in autumn is sufficient, it is the time to use troops.
The whole country of Han was filled with murderous intent.
This morning.
Wu Nian was studying in the Dexing Pavilion and was enjoying it. The book is not a serious book, but a romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
During the recent period, he did not practice martial arts or read military books. He completely let himself go, recuperating his energy and waiting for the day to send troops.
"Your Majesty, Lord Gongsun is back." A eunuch came in from outside and bowed to Wu Nian.
"Huh?" Wu Nian reacted immediately, put down the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and said happily: "Please."
"Yes." The eunuch responded, turned around and went down.
After a while. Gongsun Sang walked in from outside. Although he was wearing the official uniform of a minister, it was very awkward. There is a feeling of "taking the crown from the monkey".
"Gongsun Shangshu. It seems that you have suffered a lot." Wu Nian said with a smile.
"Compared to the soldiers fighting desperately, my suffering is nothing." Gongsun Sang shook his head and said righteously.
"Yeah." Wu Nian knew that what Gongsun Sang said was true, but his work attitude was really nothing to say, and his adventurous spirit was also remarkable.
He was proud in his heart.
Only an important minister of the Han Dynasty can be so brave. Pull out the important ministers of Chu and Goguryeo and see if they dare to travel hundreds of miles and enter the hinterland of the enemy country to complete similar tasks?
After the two exchanged a few words, they got down to business. Gongsun Sang told Wu Nian what happened.
Wu Nian frowned after hearing this, showing displeasure, and said: "Barbarians are barbarians, they don't know etiquette."
This kind nephew and adopted son-in-law actually married an equal wife.
If he had been present at that time, he would definitely not have agreed.
What's more, it would be too dangerous to leave Zhang Zhen in Sushun. But the deal is already done, and there's no point in saying anything more.
"Thank you, Gongsun Shangshu. Go back and rest for three days. After three days, you will return to work in the Yamen. The first day of October is the day when I will send troops to Huanglong Mansion. By then, the court will be busy."
"I want to go straight to Huanglong."
Wu Nian said with a bright look on his face.
"yes."
Gongsun Sang's blood boiled and he responded loudly.
