Adopted daughter? Meng Huo is talking about Linger?
When Pang Shanmin heard this, he couldn't help being stunned. After a long time, he shook his head and said with a smile: "The Barbarian King has misunderstood this matter. Zhu Rong and General Sun Shao are in love and like each other. They are related by marriage and have nothing to do with Pang. As for my Ling'er If she wants to choose a son-in-law, Pang will only respect her choice. Regardless of whether she is poor or rich, as long as Linger likes her, Pang will accept the marriage!"
After Pang Shanmin finished speaking, he looked at Meng Huo, but a sharp look flashed in his eyes. When Meng Huo saw this, he knew that Pang Shanmin didn't want to get entangled with him on this matter anymore, so he simply didn't say anything more, but he was quite confused in his heart, secretly thinking I heard before that most of the daughters of this family are used for marriage, and Ling'er is not Pang Shanmin's biological daughter, but a mere adopted daughter. Pang Shanmin is so stingy, could there be some secret in it?
After a long meal of wine, the sky turned dark, and all the barbarian kings were drunk. The people of Pangshan ordered Jiang Wan to lead Meng Huo and others into the post house to rest, and went to the bamboo forest at night to find Kong Ming to discuss the southern barbarians' journey to Jingxiang and Xiangxiang. What's the plan?
Although Pang Shanmin believed that Meng Huo's words of sincere surrender were not lies, they also believed that the Southern Barbarians must be guarded against.
Unlike the Wuxi Barbarians, although the various tribes of the Southern Barbarians obeyed Meng Huo's orders, there were also entanglements among the tribes. Resolving conflicts in multi-ethnic areas was far from an overnight success.
After entering Zhuge Liang's house, Pang Shanmin told Kong Ming everything about Meng Huo's arrival in Changsha, and even complained about Meng Huo's wishful thinking about marrying Ling'er. Unlike Pang Shanmin's entangled heart, Zhuge Liang thought that the Nanman surrender would The advantages outweigh the disadvantages, as long as the Southern Barbarians who came to Jingxiang this time would sincerely join us. It is not difficult to stabilize the Nanman side of Xichuan.
Even if there are small-scale conflicts in the future, we can take advantage of the situation and use the barbarians to restrain the barbarians. In this way, Xichuan will become more important, and the south of Chiyun will also be under the rule of Xichuan. If the two barbarian and Han families can coexist peacefully for a few years, they can gradually introduce Chinese language and the Han system can be incorporated into the southern barbarian tribes. At that time, the Southern Barbarians will also gradually become Chinese like the Wuxi Barbarians and Shanyue Barbarians today.
"Appeasing the Southern Barbarians is far more effective than conquering the Southern Barbarians." Previously, the Southern Barbarians just had too much appetite and refused to accept the rule of Xichuan. Now that they have seen the prosperity of Jingxiang, they must be more sincere in their desire to surrender.
"Even if Meng Huo's trip was deceptive, if he wanted to repeat it after returning to Xichuan, he would still have to go through Fazheng. Before, Fazheng could conquer the Southern Barbarians and win many battles. Now he just needs to be careful. The situation in Xichuan should also be safe.
Zhuge Liang's analysis was relatively optimistic, which made Pang Shanmin feel at ease. Pang Shanmin also secretly suppressed his anger over Meng Huo's proposal to marry Ling'er, and decided to observe Meng Huo for another stage. If Meng Huo is a man who knows emotions and interests and can still be used, then use Meng Huo's identity as the Barbarian King to control the Southern Barbarians. If Meng Huo is deceitful, he will be detained in Changsha. It is not that difficult for Pangshan people to raise a more obedient barbarian as king.
The two discussed for a long time before Pang Shanmin returned home. At dawn the next day, Pang Shanmin found that because he returned to the bamboo forest all night, some cold wind blew and occasionally caught wind chill. After getting up early in the morning, Pang Shanmin felt uncomfortable all over his body.
So Pang Shanmin only ordered his subordinates to tell Jiang Wan to entertain all the barbarian kings well, and also ordered a secret investigation to find out what Meng Huo did after entering Changsha and whether he was safe.
After a minor illness, it was still half a day's leisure. Diao Chan looked at Pang Shanmin who was wrapped like rice dumplings on the couch and smiled happily: "I haven't thanked my husband before and vetoed the barbarian king's proposal to marry Ling'er. If Ling'er is far away, Marrying a Nanman, I'm afraid it won't be easy to meet her in the future"
"Although Pang hopes for peace between the Han barbarians, he will not gamble with Ling'er's happiness." Pang Shanmin heard this and said with a smile: "Besides, Meng Huo is not a good match for Ling'er. Pang has promised Ling'er a long time ago that this important matter of marriage will always be taken care of." It has to be what she wants! Even if Ling'er really likes a poor person, with Pang's methods, she can make him richest in the world!"
"My husband dotes on her more than Ling'er's biological father." Diao Chan heard this and said with a smile, "It's just that when Ling'er was about to get married, my husband thought that with this talented person in Jingxiang, who else could be worthy of Ling'er?"
"Pang thinks Boyan is good, but Ling'er has never liked people with weak literary skills" Pang Shanmin laughed when he heard this and said: "Ling'er is too old to marry too early, and she has a frizzy temper, so she needs to be more mature. , only someone wants it"
Ling'er, who was far away in the morning training camp in Changsha, suddenly sneezed and almost fell off the horse, but Zhu Rong laughed loudly and said to Ling'er: "Ling'er, it must be that Meng Huo who misses you!"
"It's less than the hairy guy I mentioned before" Ling'er rolled her eyes at Zhu Rong and said to Zhu Rong: "Yesterday when I patrolled the city, I had seen the appearance of Meng Huo. I thought General Sha was already tall. He's so rude and crazy, but I didn't expect that this Meng Huo was even worse. Fortunately, my uncle didn't agree to this man's request, otherwise I would have fled to Xiliang and hid for a while!"
Zhu Rong smiled when he heard this and said: "But speaking of which, uncle really dotes on you. When Meng Huo came to my tribe to ask for marriage, no one in the tribe dared to speak for meFortunately, I accidentally came to Jingxiang and met Shaoer"
"Shameless dead girl! You screamed so affectionately!" Ling'er also smiled after hearing the words and said to Zhu Rong: "In short, although Meng Huo is a barbarian king, he is a man who came to Jingxiang to surrender. How dare he disobey What is your wish, uncle? You and I should not mention this person again, it will ruin the mood!"
Just as Lu Qiling finished speaking, she saw Sun Shao flying towards Lu Qiling. When he arrived in front of Lu Qiling, Sun Shao looked gloomy and said to the two of them: "Miss Lu, in half an hour, Governor Jiang will lead the barbarian kings to take a look at our Jingxiang army. Wei! Time is running out, I¡¯d better assemble the army quickly!"
"Is Meng Huo coming?" Lu Qiling was slightly shocked when she heard this, but she saw Zhu Rong frowning and scolding: "It seems that this guy is not giving up yet!"
"We'll have to see how this Barbarian King's martial arts is at that time!" Lu Qiling said to the two of them with a frosty look on her face: "Since you want to embarrass yourself, I will welcome you! I'll beat him until he's afraid, and let's see if he dares to scheme again. General!"
"The southern barbarians came here to surrender. If the fight is severe, it will be hard for my uncle to explain to him. Don't underestimate the enemy. Meng Huo can win the position of barbarian king. His martial arts must be quite good. He was previously in During the time of the Southern Barbarians, I heard that this man is extremely powerful and can tear apart tigers and leopards. If we fight with him rashly, once we lose, we will be the ones to be embarrassed!" After Zhu Rong said this, with an angry look on his face, Sun Shao shouted: "Daughter-in-law, don't try to gain other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige. When Meng Huo comes, Sun should meet with him for a while. In the past, he bullied Sun's wife. Now he finally has the opportunity to repay him. So How could Sun miss this important matter!"
"I'm not here for you, why are you in a hurry!" Lu Qiling heard this and said with a smile: "When he comes, I will fight him first!" (To be continued)
