When Xia Xun heard this, he turned around, and saw a sixty-year-old man dressed in a wide leather robe and braided gold rings coming forward with a smile on his face.
Behind him were five or six big men, among whom was the girl who was easy to hairpin.
The old man said deeply to Xia Xun's forked hand: "Gurmahun has seen Lord Ministry" Xia Xun put down the fox fur in his hand, turned around and said with a smile: "You're welcome, please get up quickly, you are the lord of Hada City at your feet."
This old man in front of Xia Xun, is not as arrogant as the boy and girl, although he is tall, majestic, like a lion, in front of Xia Xun, but as tame as a cat, when Xia Xun asked, busy and owed, with a smile: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, it's just the grace of the court, entrusted to some messengers, for the court to manage some barbarism here, when the word city lord can't be called, the ministry of the hall just call the name of the next." ” As he spoke, he turned sideways, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "I don't know that the Lord of the Ministry has arrived, and I have missed the welcome, so I ask the Ministry to forgive me."
If the lord of the ministry does not think that he is ugly in the lower residence, please come to the house and sit down for a while, and let me serve tea. ” Xia Xun said: "The city lord is polite, this time I came, this governor is to visit you." ” Magur also seemed to know that he was working hard and moving the people, and he must have come to find him, but now when he heard him confirm it in person, his face suddenly tightened, and he secretly said in his heart: "Oh no, any official who takes office will come to me to search for it, but these Han officials are all self-conscious and waiting for me to give gifts to the door."
The governor was in a hurry, and he took the initiative to come to the door, and he did not know how much money he had to send to satisfy him. ” I was apprehensive in my heart, and I had to force a smile on my face, and said: "The ministry is here, it is shining, it is the face below, welcome, welcome, the ministry is please, the adults are please, ah, the military is also here, please please." ” After speaking, he turned his head and shouted at the man who sold leather goods: "Pu Ladu, why don't you go and copy all the good fox skins in Hada City, and ask the master of the ministry to choose what to do there."
Pu Lai hurriedly answered, and the stall was gone, and ran away in a puff of smoke.
Xia Xun touched his nose, didn't say anything, and only thought in his heart: "The money that should be paid still has to be paid, but I only have treasure money on me, and the peddler doesn't accept it. ” Chu Bingbei wanted to buy fox skins on his behalf, he wanted to pat him on the back, he wanted to buy four fox skins, in fact, he also wanted to pat the horses, pat the queen's sister-in-law's ass.
Although her mother-in-law is gone, the queen's sister-in-law is even more powerful than her mother-in-law, and now she has to buy a fox skin for Ming'er, and she has to bring one to this sister-in-law Although the queen mother once opposed her marriage with Ming'er, after Ming'er married herself, this sister-in-law took care of the Yang family a lot, and a large part of Ming'er's rich dowry was purchased by the queen mother.
Etiquette is still exchanged, although people are queens, there is nothing missing, and it can be regarded as a little heart of their own family.
Xia Xun and a few people followed Magurhun to his residence, Magurhun's residence is a huge courtyard in this Hada city, to say that it is magnificent, it is not touched, the residence of the lord of this city is only more spacious than other people's houses, more regular, there are many leather goods piled up in the yard, and some cattle and sheep are tied to the two compartments.
Magulhun invited Xia Xun and others into the upper room, the big kang was covered with a mat, a big cushion, a big kang table, a window, pasted white paper, and a paper-cut window flower pasted on the top, a typical northern custom.
Magurhun invited the guests to the kang, and quickly instructed the family to arrange the wine and food, and said to the man and girl: "It's over, go quickly, and bring my good dough cake bud tea." ” The girl stood there reluctantly and said, "Uncle Amoji, how do people know where your tea cakes are?"
Magul glared and said: "You don't know, who knows that yesterday he stole a piece of cake from me to make tea to drink, don't you know that I will go?"
The girl pouted and walked out angrily.
After a while, I heard the girl's voice ringing in the hall: "Aunt Amu, the tea cake is for you, I'll go around the city" After speaking, the footsteps sounded, and the girl actually walked out.
Ding Dusi said with a smile: "Magulhun, your niece seems to be quite hostile to us. ” Magulhun said with some embarrassment: "A few adults don't know, my niece and nephew, originally had a sister, who was married to the Eight Tigers Dao garrison Duji Sizhong, and didn't want the Tartars to invade, Liaodong Commander Shen Yong refused to send troops, Duji Si died in battle, and the sister who was taken away was also taken captive, and now life and death are uncertain, alas, poor she is pregnant" Speaking of this, Magul fought hard and said with a smile: "This time, the Lord of the Ministry of the Hall beheaded Shen Yong, and sent troops out of the customs, after the girl heard about it, she praised you in front of me more than once, even if there was some resentment in my heart, it had already disappeared, hehe, she is a cold-faced and cold-mouthed surname, in fact, the person is very good, the Lord of the Ministry of the Hall must not be surprised." ” Xia Xun smiled and said, "Hehe, this governor naturally won't be as knowledgeable as a little girl."
Hmm, you said that her brother-in-law is the garrison of the Eight Tigers Road, and as far as I know, the Eight Tigers Guards are the sons-in-law of the Thirty Thousand Wetmuradus."
Magul smiled and said, "Exactly, that girl is Pei Yishi's youngest daughter, Temur." ” Xia Xun then figured out that this Magulhun and Pei Yishit Moor of San0,000 Wei were brothers, after their clan was attached to the Ming Dynasty, Pei Yishit Moor became the capital of Sanwan Wei, and served as a military officer, while his cousin Magurhun used his status and prestige in the tribe to become the lord of Hada City, there are no civil officials in Liaodong, he is actually responsible for the civil duties in the area of Hada City, and is responsible for trade order, tax collection and other economic functions at the same time, but also responsible for local judicial functions.
Even in the Central Plains, after the intentional cultivation and support of the family, it is common for outstanding figures in various fields to appear in the family, and it is even more common in ethnic minority areas.
Xia Xun, who learned of this relationship, was secretly happy in his heart, he came here for Hada City, and the greater the potential power of Hada City, the better it would be for his plan.
The water is boiling, the tea is brewed, the good bud tea cake, the tea soup is fragrant and fragrant, and the blue and white porcelain bowls are used, but the blue and white porcelain plates and dishes are relatively rough, and it should not be from several famous porcelain firing production areas in the Central Plains.
A few people drank tea and chatted, and in the middle of Magurhun took the time to leave, and whispered to the mother-in-law to prepare gifts for several Han officials, and the mother-in-law listened to her husband finish talking about the gifts to be prepared, and couldn't help but feel a little painful, and asked in a low voice: "To prepare so much?"
Magul glared and said: "It's not that you and that girl, I said earlier, Liaodong has changed masters, we have to come to the door as soon as possible to meet and offer gifts, you are partial to that Shen Yong's refusal to send troops to the rescue, killed our son-in-law, don't let me go, now it's good, people take the initiative to come to the door, don't take more property than usual, can he be content."
I heard that this governor is still a relative of the emperor's family, so it's even worse, the lack of gifts is not happy for people, on this ground, it's not just our Temur family who has power, if the governor wants to change someone to manage Hada City, you still dare to rebel and can't do it until then it will really be a chicken and egg fight, and there will be nothing left.
Go, prepare as I say. ” His mother-in-law was reluctant, but her husband was cautious, and if she really annoyed the relatives of the Ming Emperor as her husband said, and did not let her own man be the lord of Hada City, the loss would be great, and the mother-in-law had to run to the back house to get ready.
Here Magurhun cheered up again, ran back to the house to talk to Xia Xun, after a while, the dishes under the kitchen were also burned one after another, and they were served up like flowing water, although this Magurhun is the lord of a city in Hada City, in fact, his status is equivalent to that of a relatively large tribal patriarch, such as silk and satin, fine porcelain tea, which are also enjoyed by superior people in the Central Plains, he also has things here, but limited by the living environment and living atmosphere, the whole life grade is not up.
You are on Mochou Lake, painting boats and waves, wearing a lake silk armor, Shu embroidered tube skirt, bright eyes and teeth, blowing in the spring breeze, stretching out a pair of soft hand, orchid jade fingers are coated with cardamom, what kind of artistic conception is you wrapped in silk and satin here, as soon as you go out of the room, the horse neighs and the cow moo, sheep dung is everywhere, even if it is the same, it is also inappropriate.
This dish is the same, the dishes here are rough, and the delicate and delicate of the Central Plains wealthy family is very different, the plates, plates, plates, and basins are the largest, the dishes are mixed with wild vegetables, braised beef, hand-grilled mutton, stewed chicken in a casserole, braised pork pieces, but the dishes outside the plug have a unique flavor, but they can also arouse people's appetite.
With the liquor that burned like a fire in the stomach, both the guests and the host ate happily.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, the chopsticks are stacked, Magulhun greeted, and the younger generations of the family carried many things into boxes and cages, mink boxes, ginseng and catty, Beizhu on the plate, and Haidongqing, which is hard to find in a hundred gold, is majestic and heroic on the arm.
Seeing such a rich gift, the eyes of the young imperial envoy, Chu Bingbei and others were straight, Xia Xun turned his gaze, and asked with a smile: "What does this mean?"
