Chapter 138 Grassland Envoy
Li Mian smiled: "These are not tears, but little pearls."

Hongqiao was amused by the word "little pearl", laughed "puchi", turned around, and was about to leave the white wall and moon cave to go to the embroidery room.

Li Mian stopped Hongqiao: "Follow me to the study in Dongshaojian, isn't it just some excellent war horses, just a letter, and you can get enough excellent war horses for you."

With doubts, Hongqiao followed his uncle to the study in Dongshaojian. He still didn't believe that a letter could be exchanged for a war horse.

She tried her best, and even endured being cheated away from Huangzhuang, but in the end she still couldn't get some excellent war horses, and she was deceived by Qian Dongjian and his son for no reason.

My uncle doesn't have many friends in the capital, and he doesn't serve in the officialdom, so he has no party members to rely on, so where can he get a batch of war horses from Taipu Temple.

Li Mian finished writing the letter and put it in Hongqiao's hands: "You take this letter to the Siyi Pavilion, and hand it to the clansmen who stayed in the Siyi Pavilion on the Horqin Grassland."

When Hongqiao heard the words of Horqin Grassland, he understood that my uncle wanted to get a batch of war horses from Dayuer, but he still remained suspicious of this matter.

My uncle had already offended Da Yuer a few days ago, if she were an official lady in the capital, she would only hate my uncle to death.

After all, with the background of an official lady, to be able to look up to my uncle, that is my uncle's admiration.

In the end, my uncle didn't want to save face and directly refused.

Da Yuer's status is much more noble than the officials and ladies in the capital, and she still has military power in her hands, controlling tens of thousands of grassland elites.

Not to mention sending a batch of war horses, maybe the letter will be burned immediately.

Hongqiao left the mansion with doubts, and went to the Siyi Pavilion.

When she saw the people from the Horqin Grassland, she took the letter and handed it over, thinking that she might see the grassland people throwing the letter on the ground next.

Several prairie people from the Horqin Grassland reacted unexpectedly. Not only did they not throw them on the ground and stomp them hard, but they carefully put them in their arms.

The envoy of the Horqin Grassland said respectfully: "This girl will go back and tell the son-in-law that I will send the news back to the Horqin Grassland as soon as possible. As for whether I can bring a batch of war horses, it depends on the princess's mood."

After the envoy of the grassland said this, he left the Siyi Pavilion without any pause, and rode a fast horse towards the Horqin grassland.

Standing at the east gate of Siyi Pavilion, Hongqiao stared at the back of the grassland envoy leaving, and was stunned: "How could he have such a reaction? It's not like what the slave family thought, directly tearing up the letter written by my uncle." .”

Hongqiao watched the Horqin Grassland envoy leaving in good spirits, and was full of anticipation in his heart, hoping that he could really bring a batch of war horses when he came back.

Hongqiao left the Siyi Pavilion and went back to report to my uncle, explaining what happened in the Siyi Pavilion.

She had just left, and Qian Dongjian, who was eager to be whipped, accompanied King Ding, one of the four rich vassals, to the vicinity of the Siyi Pavilion.

Qian Dongjian and King Ding entered the Chalou branch near Siyi Hall together. Qian Dongjian was obviously a frequent visitor here, and his father was also the minister of the Taipu Temple, so he was directly brought to the Qinglong position in the official position by the servant.

There were already two people sitting in the official seat. Although they were dressed in soft scarves and Confucian shirts, it could be seen from the money mouse tails on the back of their heads that they should be the envoys left by the Jurchens to the Siyi Pavilion.

King Ding didn't turn around and leave when he saw the Jurchens like Sun Chuanting and Li Mian, and he had to beat the Jurchens before he gave up.

In front of King Ding and other feudal lords, standing higher, there are more things to worry about.

The generals under King Ding could fight with the Jurchens, but when he met Nurhachi on the battlefield, he would probably sit down and drink a few cups of tea, chatting and laughing leisurely.

No matter how much King Ding hated the Jurchen in his heart, he would still sit and chat with Nurhachi as soon as he got rid of it.

Qian Dongjian was worried that King Ding had seen the two Jurchens, so he turned around and left, and quickly introduced: "The Baksh in front of me is named Soni, and he is Nurhachi's envoy in the capital. Sonny's identity is not simple. He was born in One of the upper three banners, the Zhenghuang Banner, is full of Mongolian, Chinese and Chinese characters all night, not only is the first-class bodyguard next to Nurhachi, but also comes from the Hongwen Museum."

King Ding nodded when he heard Hongwenguan, and the Jurchen named Soni barely caught his eye.

King Ding picked up the pine flower glaze tureen and drank the tea slowly.

Seeing King Ding sitting in the official seat, Qian Dongjian knew that today's matter was half over, so he showed a humble smile: "This time, I invite King Ding to come here, not for anything else, but because the fifty horses on the horse Wait for the horse."

When King Ding heard the word 'superior horse', he put down the pine flower glaze tureen in his hand, and became very interested in what Qian Dongjian said.

Qian Dongjian's gaze has been paying attention to King Ding's reaction, and after saying the word "top-grade horse", he really attracted the attention of King Ding: "My father is in charge of the Taipu Temple, and the high-quality horses produced by various racecourses every year are very high. Few, the student knew that King Ding wanted to equip all the guards in the palace with high-quality horses, so he went to the Siyi Pavilion, found the Jurchen envoy Sony, and helped King Ding buy fifty high-quality horses. horse."

The expression on Qian Dongjian's face was humble, but when he said these words, there was a meaning in everything he said.

He was full of pride, Qian Dongjian was the only one in the capital who could buy fifty top-grade horses.

After Qian Dongjian finished speaking, he glanced at Sonny, implying that he could speak according to the agreed terms.

Sony considered that Qian Dongjian's father was the Minister of Taipusi, and also because he secretly made a large sum of money through the sale of fifty high-quality horses this time.

Soni helped Qian Dongjian with two good words: "As the most knowledgeable vassal among the vassals, King Dingding should be clear about one thing. Even if the best horses are placed in Liaodong, which is rich in horses, they will only be given to women. A general in real life. King Ding’s vassal mansion has fifty high-quality horses this time, and when he goes hunting with other vassals, he will definitely amaze the vassals and officials in the capital.”

King Ding tore off a piece of jade pendant from his waist, and rewarded Qian Dongjian directly: "This matter is well done, this is what this king rewards you."

Qian Dongjian quickly took it and put it carefully in his cuffs. When he got home, he was going to offer the jade pendant directly.

Qian Dongjian didn't care about what King Ding rewarded, even if it was a piece of grass, he would offer it up as a treasure.

What really matters is who is giving the gift.
