Chapter 700 Riding an elephant to meet relatives
The next day, after Meng Zhou and others sobered up, they went to the Pastoral Office to pay a visit to Liu Qi and told him about their intention to keep Meng Huo in Chengdu.
Liu Qi really didn't expect that Meng Zhou would leave his son in Chengdu... This is to send his son as a charity and willingly use it for himself!
Liu Qi looked at Meng Zhou's expression carefully and found that he did not seem to be lying for a fake, but was willing to do so.
When Meng Zhou made up this, Liu Qi felt a little embarrassed.
"King Meng, we are all ministers of the Han Dynasty. I, Liu Qi, came to Yizhou to govern the military and political affairs. The Han people are my people, and the old people are also my people. If you don't distinguish them, why do you have to get a hostage? There is no need."
Meng Zhou was instead excited. He kept bowing to Liu Qi and said, "Meng Zhou sent his son here not to be a hostage, but to let him here follow the general to learn the techniques and etiquette of the Han people, so that he could bring the essence of the following general back to the south center, so that we old people could be educated, and we could eat enough to be hungry and wear clothes in cold clothes, which is enough!"
After saying that, Meng Zhou reached out and grabbed Meng Huo behind him and pushed forward: "You may have seen the Lord and Hou!"
Meng Zhou looked at Liu Qi hesitantly, and finally gave him a hasty salute.
Liu Qi gently rubbed his eyebrows, and smiled helplessly and shook his head.
Even the Tiexiang King and Wu Mufu could guess Meng Zhou’s thoughts, so how could he not guess?
However, although he had his own selfish intentions to send his son as a staunch, he did indirectly show that he was determined to support Liu Qi...
Such people are available.
"Okay, King Meng, I have decided to re-dividend the four counties in the south and change them to seven counties, each county has a county magistrate, a county magistrate, an inspector, and a commander... The four county ranks are all held by the Han people. Of course, they mainly govern the Han people in their jurisdiction. They set up a guru in each county, and selected a barbarian king to serve as the guru. Looking at the affairs of the barbarians in the county, the people of the guru government only need to regularly accept the evaluation of the county supervisors. The other barbarian affairs are handled by the guru government. The guru government has the right to open the government. Yesterday, I have re-divided the seven counties, namely the guru government, namely the seven counties of Jingke, Yuezhi, Zhuti, Jianning, Yongchang, Yunnan, and Xinggu. Your King Meng, Meng, is the first guru government in the guru government of Yuezhi County."
After a pause, Liu Qi said again: "The Protectors of the other six prefectures need to report to the court every quarter the progress of the barbarians learning farming, building houses, weaving and other technologies, and count the heads of barbarians in their jurisdictions annually, and report them to Chengdu regularly... However, the seven counties reported separately, and there may be omissions. In the first two years, we will summarize them to the Protectorate's Mansion of the Great Deed. After the verification is correct, we will report them together."
When the Tiexiang King and Wu Mufu heard this, they were shocked.
The implication of this is that Liu Qi seems to be trying to reuse Meng Zhou's moderation, so the barbarians!
Unexpectedly, after one move, I was a big step behind.
The Iron Elephant King hurriedly took a step forward and said loudly: "Report to the general, I actually plan to send my eldest son Mulu to Chengdu and let him learn from the general. The journey is long, and it will take some time to reach Chengdu."
Wu Mufu shouted: "My son, Wu Tugu, has long wanted to appreciate the culture and knowledge of the Han people, but he has never had a chance. I would like to ask General Liu to give his son a chance to come to Chengdu and serve General Liu!"
Liu Qi couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
In terms of cunning, these barbarians are not a little worse than the Han people.
"Okay, then as you say, you can send your son to Chengdu, and Liu will definitely train them."
Subsequently, Liu Qi enthroned the Tiexiang King and Wu Mufu as the guardians of Yongchang and Yunnan.
...
On the tenth day of October, it finally arrived...it was Liu Qi's wedding day.
On this happy day, in addition to the close relatives of Jingzhou, Liu Qi also invited many old friends from Jingzhou to attend his wedding. At the same time, he also gave all the powerful and powerful clans in Yizhou a last chance.
He sent people one by one to invite their patriarch to Chengdu to attend his wedding.
At present, rebellions are being rebelled everywhere in Yizhou, and many rebellions were created by the patriarchs of these major clans to resist the new policy. However, Liu Qi's current military strength is unparalleled in the entire southern border. It is only a matter of time before he can destroy these rebel rebels.
There will definitely be conflicts of interest when exercising a deposit to the acres, which will lead to many people dying. Liu Qi is very clear about this, but he thought about it and did not want to consume too much.
After all, those who died in the civil war were all living forces within Yizhou.
Therefore, he gave the rebellious clans a chance to reform themselves. As long as they were willing to come and apologize and attend the wedding, Liu Qi decided to spare their lives.
In the end, most of the rebellious powerful men came to Chengdu, presented generous gifts, and expressed their willingness to surrender to Liu Qi, asking Liu Qi to leave the blame.
Liu Qi counted the number of people... There were still 15 people from the family missing.
Liu Qi immediately ordered Xu Rong and others on the front line to kill all fifteen families.
On the day of the wedding, the whole of Chengdu has become extremely lively since the morning.
Not only high-ranking officials and grand families, but also the entire city were given several wedding money by the provincial governor's office within one day.
Although Liu Qi’s wedding was not luxurious, there were still many activities. After all, it was a marriage for the state governor, so the scene still had to be done.
Other people's weddings were all about newlywed couples, but Liu Qi did not calm down.
In one day, civil officials competed with tuition and military officials competed with arrows throughout Chengdu City, and also held a Marseille in the suburbs, which attracted almost all men from small counties around Chengdu to watch.
On that day, laughter and joy resounded throughout the capital, with a joyful scene.
The scene of Liu Qi taking the bride has also been unforgettable to everyone in the entire Chengdu city.
Liu Qi was unique. The groom did not ride a tall horse to pick him up, but rode the elephant that the Iron Elephant King gave him tribute from Nanzhong!
Liu Qi selected the largest elephant from the elephant brought to him by the Iron Elephant King, and ordered people to make red cloth and create an elephant chair. He sat on it and went to the prepared bride-taking mansion to marry his four newlywed wives.
Liu Qi's father-in-law Cai Yong, waiting for his son-in-law to come and pick him up...
But when he saw Liu Qi riding a huge monster towards them, Cai Yong's face turned pale.
Although he is knowledgeable on weekdays... This is the first time Cai Yong has seen this huge monster with a long nose and big ears!
He actually dared to ride this thing?
When the elephant was standing in front of the mansion, Cai Yong looked at the tall monster, and his body couldn't help but squat down, almost sitting on the ground.
Fortunately, the person behind him hurriedly reached out to support him, so Cai Yong did not show any fear.
In the end, the four brides were pulled away by Liu Qi with an elephant after completing the procedure, leaving Cai Yong with a horror on his face. He stood at the door and stared blankly at the elephant's huge fat ass...
After a while, Cai Yong showed regret.
Actually, he wanted to make things difficult for his son-in-law today...at least he would make sure that he would never let his daughter down in public!
