Chapter 2684: Come to ask the crime!

The nine surnames of Zhaowu refer to the general term for the Sogdians or

their descendants who came to the Central Plains from the Sogdian region in

Central Asia during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Sui, and Tang

Dynasties. The kings of them all used Zhaowu as their surname.

The nine surnames of Zhaowu were originally from Yueshi. In the early Han

Dynasty, the Huns broke the Yue clan and forced them to move west. The Yue

clan, whose hometown is Zhaowu in Hexi (modern Linze Zhaowu, near Zhangye,

Gansu), then fled westward, entered the Sogdian region of Central Asia,

conquered the local indigenous people, and formed several The city-state,

later, was forced to change the surname to Wen (Wen Na Sha) for the rule of

Hao Da.

After the decline of 嚈DA, the city-states regained their independence and

regained their surname Zhaowu, forming the Sogdian city-states headed by Kang

Guo. Among them are An, Cao, Shi, Mi, He, Shi, Mu, Bi, etc., collectively

referred to as "Zhaowu Nine Surnames" "In the Tang Dynasty, it was also called

"Nine-surnamed Hu" or simply "Hu", while in Western language it was called

"Sogdians".

Later, some of the nine surnames Hu accepted the rule of Turkic and Tang

dynasties. In the eighth century, the country died in the Great Food (Arab

Empire). After that, most of his countrymen gradually became Turkic and

*ized, and became part of the modern Uzbek in Central Asia. A small part of

the rest was scattered among the Tajiks.

Although the nine surnames of Zhaowu are far inferior to the Turks in terms of

combat capability, their "business attributes" are far higher than any nomadic

people in the north. Since the Sogdian region is the throat of the middle

section of the Silk Road, the nine surnames of Zhaowu, the Sogdians, have

naturally become a nation with a business tradition. To put it bluntly, they

have become hereditary "second-path traders" and sell Chinese silk to the

West. , Selling Western gems and wines to the Tang Dynasty.

After all, the nomads started out but couldn't beat other people's Datang,

they can only rely on their mobility to become businessmen, and even the art

of papermaking was passed to Central Asia and other places through the Kangguo

people. In fact, since the Han and Wei dynasties, these Sogdians have entered

the Central Plains to do business along the Silk Road, but because the

subsequent Western Jin Dynasty was a short-lived ghost, the Central Plains was

overwhelmed by the chaos and business was tepid.

In the Sui and Tang Dynasties, thanks to the shining and open and inclusive

imperial national policy of the famous generals in the early Tang Dynasty, the

Silk Road was given new vitality. This attracted a large number of people from

the nine surnames of Zhaowu to come from east to the east. The "Old Tang Book"

records: "The journey of Xinghu, time has passed."

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, a large number of Zhaowu nine surnames

came to China. Many of them became rich because of business. They envied the

colorful culture of the Tang Empire. They married wives and had children in

the mainland, and gradually became Sinicized, and some even formed

considerable political forces. .

For example, the An brothers, the world was in chaos at the end of the Sui

Dynasty, and Li Gui seized Liangzhou. In order to regain the Liangzhou area,

An Xinggui played Li Yuan, hoping to persuade Li Gui to return to the Tang

Dynasty. Tang Gaozu Li Yuan did not agree, so the two again offered to merge.

In the end, he helped Tang Jun flatten the Liang Wang Li Gui who occupied

Hexi. Because of the outstanding merits of the An brothers, An Xinggui was

awarded the title of General Youwuhou, Shangzhu Kingdom sealed the Liang

Guogong, Shishi sealed six hundred households, and gave ten thousand pieces of

silk. An Xiuren was also given the title of General Zuo Wuhou, named Shen

Guogong, given to a farm, and sealed six hundred households.

However, this An has nothing to do with An Lushan's An absolutely nothing.

Although they are all Sogdians and their surnames are An, this An is actually

equivalent to our big surnames like Liu, Wang, and Li. The Sogdian surname has

gone. Not only that, An Baoyu, an offspring of the An family, was later reused

by the famous ZTE general Li Guangbi. In the fight against the Anshi rebels,

he repeatedly built Qixun. The court gave the country the surname Li, and

moved to Sikong with merit.

Li Baoyu’s cousin, Li Baozhen, later became the Zelu Jiedu Envoy, and he also

made great efforts to resist the rebellion in the towns of Heshuo. The

addition of the official prosecutor, Sikong, and the seal of 500 households,

the settlement can be regarded as "full of loyalty." Up. In fact, during the

Anshi Rebellion, there were many Huren who made contributions to "bring sugar"

and sacrificed their lives. For example, Li Guangbi was a Khitan, a standard

Huren. Due to the open policy of the Tang Dynasty, many foreigners served as

officials in the court, forming a unique "fan soldiers and generals" in the

history of the Tang Dynasty. The nine surnames of Zhaowu are a force that

cannot be ignored.

In general, the greatest characteristic of the nine surnames of Zhaowu is that

they are rich, very, very rich. Once people have money, they will find ways to

seek a certain political status. Today, the nine surnames of Zhaowu are also

rich. No exception!

Except for those who entered the dynasty as officials due to chance, a large

number of Zhaowu nine surnames were engaged in business in the Tang Dynasty,

and at the same time they used their money to rely on some powerful local

forces. The people of the nine surnames are surprisingly united. It is not an

exaggeration to describe the eight words "difficulty on one side and support

from all sides". Therefore, the power of the surnamed Jiu Zhaowu in Datang is

definitely not to be underestimated!

Not to mention that Kang Changan came from the suzerain country of Zhaowu's

nine surnames-Kang Guo, and it was a coincidence that this guy had something

to do with the Kang royal family. In this way, Kang Changan's death was more

than just a matter. The murder case is very likely to evolve into a

"diplomatic dispute" event!

If the government of Taiyuan City could not give a reasonable explanation or

explanation for Kang Changan’s death, not to mention that Kang Guoguo would

not give up, it is estimated that the Kang Guoren or Zhaowu nine surnames in

Datang would not disappear. They might Will cause endless troubles to the

Taiyuan government!

After all, whether in modern society or feudal society, money is not

everything, but money can solve most problems, such as hiring killers,

monopolizing the market, disrupting prices in the city, and so on!

No matter what method they use, Wang Liaoyuan and others will feel

uncomfortable!

When a group is particularly rich and even possesses the wealth of a wealthy

country, even if they do not have any official positions, the influence they

cause is by no means comparable to ordinary people!

This is true of Kang Changan and Kang Qu today!

But if you want to say that Datang is afraid of the nine surnames of Zhaowu?

Obviously not! In terms of overall national strength, if the people of the

nine surnames of Zhaowu add up and multiply by ten, they may not be able to

beat the powerful Tang Dynasty. The strength of the nine surnames of Zhaowu is

not based on national power, but on economic "soft power"!

Not only did they monopolize the transactions between Datang and Western

countries, but even within Datang, the business and economic lifeline of many

states and counties are in the hands of the Jiuxing Hu! As the saying goes, if

Datang does something against the nine surnames of Zhaowu, although it can

win, it will also hurt itself!

“I’m shocked to hear that Brother Chang’an’s ironware shop was suddenly

seized, and Brother Chang’an himself suffered an accident. Therefore, I came

to the Governor’s Office to ask Lord Governor to hold justice for Brother

Chang’an and find out who killed Brother Chang’an. ?"

Taiyuan, Fuyahoutang, Wang Liaoyuan, Wang Yu, Li Tai and others were surprised

by Kang Qu, but he didn't make any fuss. Instead, he arched his hands to Wang

Liaoyuan as usual.

Wang Liaoyuan settled down, his face quickly recovered his majesty. He said in

a deep voice: "Kang Changan was suspected of smuggling weapons to the Turks,

so his iron shop was sealed up by the government! And Kang Changan himself

escaped yesterday. The guards of the Wang family were in Taiyuan City and

couldn’t find them. Just today, the guards of the Wang family suddenly learned

of Kang Chang’an’s hiding place and went to arrest them. Unexpectedly, they

were assassinated by three masters in black on the way back from the escort.

Kang Chang’an Unfortunately, he died!"

"What? Brother Changan smuggled weapons to the Turks? How is this possible?"

Kang Qu heard the words and said with a look of surprise: "This is impossible!

We Kang people have always been honest in doing business outside, and we have

never had any contact with Turkic people. How could Brother Changan smuggle

weapons to Turkic people? Mr. Shi, you must be honest. It's a mistake. I

believe Brother Chang'an is a man, he must not be able to do such a thing!"

Li Tai said coldly at this moment: "Huh! What use do you believe? Now that

there are human and physical evidence, even if Kang Changan survives, he can't

tolerate denial!"

Hearing Li Tai rushing to speak in front of Wang Liaoyuan, Kang Qu immediately

turned his attention to Li Tai, and he asked in surprise, "Who are you?"

People who can stand with Wang Liaoyuan and dare to speak out are definitely

not ordinary. As a businessman, Kang Chu is the best at observing words and

behaviors, so he is quite polite to Li Tai!

Wang Liaoyuan said with a solemn expression: "This is my Royal Highness King

Wei of the Tang Dynasty, and one of the most beloved princes of the sage

today!"

Since Li Tai chose to speak out at this time~www.mtlnovel.com~, he was

naturally deliberately supporting the Taiyuan government in this matter, and

Wang Liao's principle is unquestionable! Because the deceased Kang Changan had

something to do with the royal family of Kang, if the other party used force

to overwhelm others, he would not be able to stand up to the provincial

governor! But Li Tai, who was born in the royal family, is different!

With Li Tai in the town here, even if the prince of Kang Guo came to seek

justice for Kang Changan himself, Wang Liaoyuan would be worthwhile!

Sure enough, Kang Qu's complexion changed. He took two steps back and solemnly

bowed to Li Tai and said: "It turns out to be His Royal Highness Wei Wang of

Tang Dynasty. Kang Qu has seen His Royal Highness!"

Li Tai said indifferently: "Don't be polite!"

After that, he stopped talking.

Wang Liaoyuan said to Kang Qu at this time: "As for Kang Changan’s smuggling

of weapons to the Turks, the government office has indeed confirmed evidence.

After the investigation of the case is completed, the official will send the

detailed files to the court, and then the Honghu Temple, Send it to Kangguo!"

When it comes to foreign affairs, it is not possible for the governor to

intervene, it must be handed over to Honghu Temple for special handling!

Kang Qu hesitated for a moment, and said: "Okay! Since Wang Cishi said that

the evidence is solid, then there is nothing to say. The Chinese court will

negotiate with your country's Hongfu Temple! However, my Changan brother

smuggled to the Turkic people. Weapon is not guilty of death, why was it

assassinated in Taiyuan City? Please tell me, Master Governor!"

This guy's posture didn't look like he came to the Assassin's Mansion to find

someone, but he came to the door to ask the guilty teacher!

Wang Liaoyuan's face sank, and he said solemnly: "As for those assassins, the

Assassin's Mansion is trying its best to arrest them. Once they are caught,

they will give your country an explanation. Please don't interfere with the

official's handling of official duties at the moment! If nothing else, Please

go back!"
