Chapter 779: Combined vertical and horizontal five
Unlike the rudeness and ignorance of the soldiers under his command, the Hu Centurion still has some insight. Although his tribe is weak, as the leader of the tribe, he still has the status of a noble. With this status, he can see things and things that only his class can see.
After Huhe Bari established the Liao Kingdom, he valued the Han literati and appointed a large number of talented Han people, filling the officials of the court. In recent years, he issued several national imperial edicts, ordering officials from all over the country, tribal leaders, and aristocratic classes to learn Chinese and Chinese as much as possible.
Many people think that Huhe Bari's move was because he admired Han culture, so he also allowed others to learn it, which aroused resistance and dissatisfaction among many people. However, those who truly understand the deep meaning deeply saw from it that Huhe Bari's desire and ambition for the Han dynasty in the Central Plains.
No matter how bad the Hu centurion was, he was also a tribal leader and belonged to the aristocratic class. Although he had less than 300 soldiers under his command, because he was a tribal leader and aristocrat, the treatment and official position given to him by the Liao court was not low, and he was a fourth-rank general.
A country naturally needs to have legal system and benevolence and morality. Therefore, Huhe Bari established the Liao Kingdom. After becoming the emperor, he strictly ordered the Hu tribes to kill innocent people. Therefore, in the Momeng Grassland, the Hu tribes no longer dared to carry out large-scale robbery and massacre of the Han people like before.
Wang Congben and his party had only four people, and it was late at night. The Hu centurion's initial intention was to kill people and seize wealth. However, he was summoned by the court two years ago to Ningjing, the capital of Liao Kingdom, and with many people, he was forced to learn Chinese characters for a period of time. Although he was impatient and not attentive, he still learned some things in the end.
The Hu Centurion understood the official seal of Wang Congben and the Chinese characters on it.
The Left Minister is a high-ranking official in the court!
The Hu centurion looked at Wang Congben again, his expression had changed, and the little thoughts he had just disappeared without a trace.
"What's your purpose when you come to our Liao Kingdom?"
The Hu centurion spoke in a rude Chinese and asked Wang Congben the purpose of this trip.
Wang Kong Ben saw the expression of the Hu people in front of him, and suddenly felt relieved. He was afraid that the scholar would encounter a soldier and could not explain it clearly and became a fool. Now it seems that the few Chinese characters that the Hu people knew already knew his identity. Since that is the case, he would not dare to come.
Wang Congben said indifferently: "I want to see Your Highness, the King of Qi, who will meet you."
The Hu centurion nodded and was about to speak when a soldier came over casually, holding a bag in his hand, shouting loudly: "Captain, this package is full of gold and silver. We can be happy for a while. Kill these Han people and return to the tribe as soon as possible."
Wang Congben could not understand the Hu people's language, but he had already known a rough idea from the look of the soldier and could not help but look at the Hu people's centurion.
The Hu centurion's face turned slightly red and said viciously to the soldier holding the package: "We are not bandits, put the things back."
The soldier was scolded and was a little overwhelmed and stood there for a moment.
Wang Congben smiled and said, "The general has worked hard, and it's just a little money, even if it's a meeting gift."
"How can you be so embarrassed?"
"It's okay, general, don't shirk it."
The Hu centurion finally took Wang Congben's money and immediately returned the official seal to him. Then he led Wang Congben to Shuocheng, where the palace of King Tumeng of Qi was located and the core of the huge territory of King Qi's fiefdom.
"Father, you are so capable, why don't you go to find the Emperor of Liao, but instead look for a prince?"
Wang Congben's son Wang Dan asked.
Although Wang Dan is less than ten years old, he already looks quite mature, with his eyes very bright and extraordinary temperament.
Wang Congben touched his son's head and sighed, "Fallen leaves will return to their roots after all. As a father, he doesn't want to stay here for the rest of his life."
Wang Dan did not ask why, but lowered his head slightly and fell into deep thought. He hoped to understand the profound meaning of his father's words through his own thinking.
Wang Congben nodded with satisfaction, with a look of relief on his face, then hugged his son tightly, closed his eyes to rest, and thought about the very important beginning.
Wang Shan's mother was just a maid, not even a concubine. She had a very humble status at home. It was just by chance that Wang Shan was born. Wang Congben was not the only son like him, but eight. However, among these eight sons, Wang Congben liked and valued the most, only Wang Shan, because this son was too similar to himself in terms of talent and personality. In him, Wang Congben saw that his lineage could continue and grow in the future. This is why, when he escaped, Wang Congben could cruelly abandon all his relatives, but wanted to bring Wang Shan with him.
After Huhe Bari established the Liao Kingdom, a place called Hebo was built here, taking Fengjing of the Jin Dynasty as a reference, and built the capital of the Liao Kingdom, for several years, until half a year ago, and just completed the construction. Huhe Bari immediately moved all the political and economic cores of the entire Momenghu people here.
When Ningjing was first built, it was opposed by many people, most of them were Hu people in Mobei. They felt that Mobei conquered Monan and now established the capital, but it was built in the grasslands of Monan. They felt that they could not accept it in terms of emotional and vanity, so they strongly opposed it.
There were too many people who opposed it, and Huhe Bari was also shaken at the beginning. It was Zhu Zheng, a Han adviser, who sent a letter to persuade him. He told Huhe Bari that the emperor had become the lord of a country and was in his heart. The Liao Kingdom was a whole. Whether in the north or south of the Mo, they were all the land of the Liao Kingdom. All the people on the land were the emperor's people. The emperor should treat Ningjing fairly, regardless of north or south. Moreover, establishing Ningjing in the southern part of the Mobei Hu tribe can not only weaken and balance the Mobei Hu tribe, a powerful group of meritorious nobles, but also appease and win over the hearts of the people of Monan Hu people. In addition, Ningjing is located at the core of the entire Momeng grassland. It has a superior geographical environment and sufficient natural materials. It is an excellent place to establish a country and build a capital. Building the capital of the Liao Kingdom here is only good but not bad. Why did His Majesty the Emperor shake?
Zhu Zhengchao's correct persuasion finally strengthened Huhebari's determination and confidence.
