Rebirth: I’m Lv Bu

Allan and his party stopped before closing. The leader of Nanban immediately brought a few people forward and asked, "Who are you?" Ai Lang clasped his fist and said, "We are merchants from Cangwu, and we are transporting goods to Tianchi for sale." The leader glanced at Ai. The big cars behind Lang waved their hands, and several men around him immediately went forward to check. Each cart carries goods such as porcelain, cloth, silk and satin.

Several subordinates checked and reported to the leader: "The leader, all are goods, there is nothing unusual." The leader nodded, and then handed a wooden sign to Ailang, and said: "Today the pool is under preparation. In the ceremony of worshipping the gods, many additional levels have been added. With this wooden sign, you can pass unimpeded!" Ailang took the wooden sign, clasped his fist and said, "Thank you." The chief turned his head and shouted: "Switch!" . Ailang led all his men and brought these many goods through the gate and entered the land of Nanban.

Here is a brief introduction to Nanban. In fact, the southern area of ​​Yizhou in this era is collectively referred to as the Nanban area. This area is not only as small as southern Sichuan. The area is actually very large. It extends from the current southern Sichuan to the present Guizhou, Yunnan, and northern Myanmar and Laos. Part of it belongs to the Nanban area at this time. These places are where the various ethnic groups of Nanban live together. The Han Dynasty occupied these places and set up counties for management. However, with the arrival of the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the Central Plains, the counties and county officials set up in Nanban basically withdrew to the hinterland, and those who remained there belonged to the various tribes. Therefore, the various parts of Nanban are now completely controlled by the various tribes Hands.

Among the various tribes of Nanban, there are three most powerful ones. One is the Zhurong tribe, which is centered on Tianchi, which is now Erhai Lake, and rules a large area of ​​land in the western part of Nanban. She is not the strongest, but because her leader is said to be the descendants of Vulcan, her status is extremely obeyed; the second is Meng Huo’s tribal alliance, which is also the most powerful. The ruler is in the central area of ​​Nanban; the third branch is the Wuxi barbarian under the command of Samok, the leader of the Wuxi barbarian who competes with Menghuo. This branch is also quite powerful, and its overall strength is slightly inferior to Menghuo. But because Meng Huo lost in Jingzhou not long ago

Because of this, the strength between the two sides is now comparable.

Ai Lang led the team along the mountain path all the way west, and on the road they encountered Nanban people who were pilgrimage to Tianchi to the west. These people looked very alert when they saw Ailang and the Han people, keeping a distance from Ailang and the others, and no one came to contact Ailang and the others from beginning to end. This is no wonder, after all, in the hearts of these barbarians, the Han people are the hateful enemies that once invaded their hometown. However, the barbarian people were hostile and hostile, but Ailang and the others did not encounter any danger along the way, and they did not embarrass them everywhere.

Ailang and his party traveled on the road for several days. In the evening, they came to Dianchi City on the south bank of Dianchi, the capital of Menghuo territory. This was originally the seat of Yizhou County in the south of Yizhou, but at this moment, the banner of the big man has long ceased to fly over the city, and replaced with the huge wolf-head banner of Menghuo.

To Ailang's surprise, this wild city is actually very lively. The gate of the city is bustling with business travelers coming in and out one after another. There are not only barbarians of various appearances, but also Han people in Hanfu! But this is also normal. After all, Han people have ruled here for so many years. Naturally, there are not a few Han immigrants. I am afraid that many Han people have lived here for generations!

Ailang and his party entered the city, and the streets that appeared in front of them were more lively. Businessmen of various ethnic groups crowded the streets to trade and walked, as if Ailang and the others had to step forward and move slowly among the crowds. Ailang glanced at this street and found that the appearance of this street is no different from the streets of Zhongyuan City, and the buildings on both sides are also in the Han style. It seems that although Meng Huo is occupying this place, many things cannot be changed.

A young man dressed in Hanfu suddenly rushed to Ai Lang before them. Ai Lang couldn't help but rein in the horse, and the team stopped. The young man bowed with a smile on his face: "You must be the original guests, right?" Ai Lang said: "We are from Cangwu." The young man said, "You guests must have no place to stay. Why don't you come to stay in a small shop!" He pointed to an inn not far away.

Ailang looked at the inn and thought it was okay, so he said, "That's good. Let's live here." The young man was very pleased, and quickly led everyone to the side door, went directly into the backyard, and came to a separate house. In the courtyard. The young man smiled and said to Ai Lang: "Fortunately, I just sent away a Han caravan, otherwise the shop would not have a place to greet you all!"

Ailang looked at the courtyard in front of him, and felt that it was no different from the independent courtyard of the Central Plains Inn. It was just a little smaller, but it was enough to live in more than a hundred of them. Ai Lang winked at Dianwei, who gave a certain amount of silver to the young man. Ellen said, "You quickly prepare some food and wine for us. We were so hungry all the way here!" The young man smiled and said, "Guests, you can go and prepare the villain!" .

It didn't take long before the wine and food arrived. The guards ate in the yard, while Ellen and the others ate and drank in the room. Xiao Er smiled and said to Ai Lang: "Please take your time! The villain is in the lobby. If the guest has any needs, send someone to the lobby to call the villain!"

Ai Lang said: "Little brother, are you a Han?" Xiao Er smiled and said, "Exactly. But even though he is a Han, but the villain was born here in Dianchi, I don't know what the Central Plains looks like!" At this time, Xiao Er's eyes showed a little longing.

Ai Lang said, "This is the first time I have brought people here to do business. Are there many Han people here? I thought they were all Nanban people from all ethnic groups?"

Xiao Er sat down opposite Ailang and said, "This is the first time that the guest officer has come. No wonder I don’t know! Actually, although mainly people from all ethnic groups in Nanban, there are quite a few Han Chinese. Well, they all migrated back then!” Then he couldn’t help but said with some worry: “We didn’t have to worry when the Han people ruled. But now it’s the barbarians who decide. Well, it’s nothing right now, but in case the barbarians want With the operation of our Han people, don’t we just have to be slaughtered!” At this point, it seemed that I suddenly realized something, and quickly laughed: “Look at my mouth, you’re talking nonsense again! Guests, don’t let it go. It's good in my heart!"

Ailang chuckled and said, "What are you afraid of, I am also a Han Chinese, will I sue you for the secret?" Xiao Er smirked.

Ai Lang said: "I see Dianchi City is more lively than Cangwu, Nanban is so lively every day?" Xiao Er shook his head and laughed; "How can it be! Isn't this about to hold a ceremony for the gods?" Many people want to rush to the Tianchi side to attend the meeting, we naturally have become the only way here. Furthermore, I heard that King Meng Huo is going to propose to Queen Zhu Rong at this conference, so this year is better than previous years. It's even more lively. Many people want to see this rare occasion!"

Ai Lang asked in surprise: "They are not husband and wife?" Xiao Er was stunned, and smiled; "What did the guest officer say?" Ai Lang realized that he had inadvertently leaked the secret, immediately. Changed the subject: "Well, why is it a rare occasion for Meng Huo to propose to Zhu Rong?" Xiao Er smiled: "The guest officer doesn't know anything. Queen Zhu Rong has always been the incarnation of the **** of fire in the hearts of Nanban people. , Is a symbol of the gods in the world. It is rarely married. That’s why King Meng Huo’s actions attracted such attention. If Queen Zhu Rong really agreed to King Meng Huo’s marriage proposal, it would be the first time in hundreds of years. The grand occasion! In the hearts of the people of all ethnic groups in Nanban, it is like a **** marrying a mortal! That's why everyone is eager for it!"

Ai Lang thought to himself: If Zhu Rong holds such a lofty status in the hearts of the various ethnic groups in Nanban, then Meng Huo has done so easily to increase his prestige! Hehe, this guy looks like a black bear, but his scheming is quite deep!

Then I thought that in history, Zhu Rong was indeed married to Meng Huo. This made Ai Lang feel very puzzled. Is it true that a rare beauty embryo like Zhu Rong would fall in love with Meng Huo's wild black bear? I don’t understand, I just think it can only be attributed to the inexplicable marriage!

Seeing that Ailang hadn't asked anything, Xiao Er clasped his fists and said, "If the guest officer has nothing to do with him, the villain will go and go." Ai Lang nodded and said, "Go ahead." Xiao Er stood up, turned and left.

Ailang thought about the matter of Meng Huo's attempt to propose to Zhu Rong, whether he wanted to find a way to destroy the matter? Ailang denied this idea for the time being, because since Zhu Rong's side and Meng Huo's side are interested in negotiating with their side, then don't take the initiative, if it is self-defeating, it would be very bad. Moreover, hehe, my wives have urged you to not take any risks. The purpose of this trip is to look at Nanban's internal situation.

After dinner, Ellen was ready to rest. At this moment, the little Er came in a hurry again, with a happy expression on his face, he clasped his fists to Ai Lang and said, "Guest, boss Zhao from the cloth house in the city and boss Li from the porcelain shop, I heard that there is a businessman from Cangwu. I brought a lot of goods such as porcelain and cloth, so I came over and wanted to do business with the guest officer!" Ailang smiled and said; "This is a good thing! Then invite them in!"
