Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 1851: Go to the door and ask!


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. All of their kings 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 (Wannasha) for the ruling of 刈DA.

After the decline of Haoda, 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 and other countries, collectively referred to as " Zhaowu Nine Surnames” were also called “Nine Surnames Hu” or simply “Hu” in Tang Dynasty, and “Sogdians” (Sogdians) in Western languages.

Later, some of the nine surnamed Hus 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, becoming one of the Uzbeks in modern Central Asia. One member and a small number of the rest were scattered among the Tajiks.

Although the nine surnames of Zhaowu are far inferior to the Turks in combat capability, their "business attributes" are far higher than that of 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, naturally became a nation with a traditional business tradition. To put it bluntly, they became hereditary "traffickers" and sold 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 by the people of Kang Guo. 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 a new lease of life. This attracted a large number of people from the nine surnames of Zhaowu to come from east to the east. The Old Book of the Tang Dynasty records: "The journey of Xinghu, time has passed."

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, a large number of nine surnames from Zhaowu came to China. Many of them became rich because of business. They envied the colorful culture of the Tang Empire. They married and had children in the mainland, and gradually became sinicized, and some even became quite large. Political power.

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 Once again, he offered suggestions and finally helped Tang Jun to 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 the 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 surnames like Liu, Wang, and Li. The Sogdian surname is 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 Baozhen, the cousin of Li Baoyu, later became the Zelu Jiedu Envoy, and he also made great efforts to resist the rebellion in the towns of Heshuo. After the official prosecutor, Sikong, he sealed five hundred households, and the settlement can be regarded as a "full house". The loyalty". In fact, during the Anshi Rebellion, there were many Huren who made contributions to "bring sugar" and sacrificed their lives. For example, Li Guangbi is 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 biggest characteristic of people with the nine surnames of Zhaowu is that they are rich, very, very rich, and once people have money, they will find ways to seek a certain political status. Today's Zhaowu nine The surname is no exception!

In addition to those who entered the dynasty as officials by chance, a large number of Zhaowu nine surnames were engaged in business in the Tang Dynasty, and at the same time they used money to rely on some powerful local forces. Moreover, Zhaowu’s nine surnames and the same Qi Lianzhi were outside. The nine surnames of Zhaowu who are engaged in business are surprisingly united. It is not an exaggeration to use the words "difficulty on one side and support from all sides". Therefore, the power of the surnames of Zhaowu in the Tang Dynasty should not be underestimated!

Not to mention that Kang Changan is still from the sovereign state of the nine surnames of Zhaowu-Kang Guo, and it is a coincidence that this guy has something to do with the Kang royal family. In this way, Kang Changan's death is more than just It is a homicide case, and it 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 stop. , They may cause endless trouble 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 especially rich, even if they have 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!

Today's Kang Changan and Kang Qu are all like this!

But if you want to say that Datang is afraid of the nine surnames of Zhaowu? Obviously not necessarily! In terms of overall national strength, if the people with 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"!

They not only monopolized the transactions between Datang and Western countries, but even within Datang, the lifeblood of the commercial economy of many states and counties is 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 was shocked to hear that Brother Chang’an’s ironware shop was suddenly seized, and Brother Chang’an himself suffered an accident, so I came to the Governor’s House to ask Lord Governor to preside over the justice of Brother Chang’an and find out that Brother Chang’an was Who killed it?"

Taiyuan, Fuyahoutang, Wang Liaoyuan, Wang Yu, Li Tai and others were surprised by Kang Qu, but he didn't have any fuss, but he arched his hands to Wang Liaoyuan as usual.

Wang Liaoyuan settled down, his face quickly recovered his majesty, and he said in a deep voice: "Kang Changan was suspected of smuggling weapons to the Turks, so his iron shop was sealed by the government! And Kang Changan himself escaped yesterday. The official and the Wang's guards were unable to find them in Taiyuan City. Just today, the Wang's guards suddenly learned of Kang Changan's hiding place and went to apprehend them. Unexpectedly, they were assassinated by three masters in black on the way back from the escort. , Kang Changan died unfortunately!"

"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? Your lord, you must be mistaken. I believe Brother Changan is a person, he must not be able to do such a thing!"

Li Tai said coldly at this time: "Huh! What use do you believe? Now that there are human and physical evidence, even if Kang Changan is alive, 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?"

The identity of a person who can stand with Wang Liaoyuan and dare to speak out is 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 of Tang Wei, and one of the most beloved princes of the sage today!"

Since Li Tai chose to speak out at this time~IndoMTL.com~, he was naturally deliberately supporting the Taiyuan government in this matter. Wang Liao's principle is to ask for it! Because the deceased Kang Changan had something to do with the royal family of Kang, if the other party were to overwhelm the people, he would not be able to withstand it! But Li Tai, who was born in the royal family, is different!

There is Li Tai in the town here, even if the prince of Kang Guo personally came to seek justice for Kang Changan today, Wang Liaoyuan would be worthwhile!

Kang Qu's complexion really 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: "With regard to Kang Changan’s smuggling of weapons to the Turks, the government’s government has indeed confirmed the evidence. After the investigation of the case is completed, the official will send the detailed file to the court, and then Hong He Temple, send it to Kang Country!"

When it comes to foreign affairs, the Governor's House is not able to intervene, it must be handed over to Honghe Temple for special handling!

Kang Qu hesitated for a moment, and said: "Okay! Since Wang Cishi said that the evidence is conclusive, then naturally there is nothing to say. Our court will negotiate with your country's Hongfu Temple! However, my Changan brother will even go to the Turks People smuggled weapons, and they are not guilty of death. Why did they get assassinated in Taiyuan City? Please give me an explanation!"

This guy's posture doesn't seem like he came to the Governor's Mansion to find someone, but he came to the door to ask his guilt!

Wang Liaoyuan's face sank, and he said solemnly: "As for those assassins, the Assassin's Mansion is trying its best to arrest them. After 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 not! Please come back for his business!"
