The Xianbei envoy's words seem to be unintentional, but in fact they are extremely inappropriate - the grassland has the rules of the grassland, and the Central Plains also has the rules of the Central Plains, and it is okay to respect each other.

Even so, the saint did not show the slightest hint of anger, but came with some interest: "Oh? In this way, Xianbei has always only looked at bravery, not about background? ”

Seeing the sage's inquiry, the Xianbei envoy 'revealed' his pride, 'straightened' his chest, and said loudly: "This is nature. ”

"That being the case, you must be a first-class warrior this time." The sage smiled gently and tolerantly, "The grassland men are vigorous, and the Han men are masculine, if you can have a discussion, it would be the best." ”

Qin Wan heard the sage's words, and looked at the Xianbei envoy with a slightly different vision - where is this drunken gaffe, it is clearly singing and harmonizing with the sage!

Given that the position she was sitting in was too eye-catching, it was not easy to look at Pei Xi, Wei Tuo, Jiang Bai and others to confirm their guesses. Then again, such a big event, even if they really knew it, would not be written on their faces for everyone to understand.

Qin Wan glanced at the Xianbei envoy, and then glanced at the Rouran envoy who was separated by two seats without a trace, and had a new thought about the relationship between the two tribes.

She had thought that if Naluo Khan was gone, there would still be a possibility for the Eastern/Turkic and Rouran to cooperate, let alone Rouran and Xianbei. The steppe is like this, this tribe enslaves that tribe, and that tribe bloodbathes this tribe. For the sake of interests, his own brothers also say that they will kill them, not to mention the righteous brothers who are allied by blood, and they almost don't take their oaths seriously. In order to seek greater benefits, the blood feud can also be put aside. Therefore, she has always been very worried that the Turks, Rouran, Xianbei and Goguryeo will form a line and directly threaten Bactria from the east to the northwest. If you hook Tubo and the Six Edicts again, this day will be too sad.

The six edicts are six big tribes, which can be divided and divided, but Tubo must be encircled. It is difficult to say whether the Western Turks will be friends or foes in the future, and the Eastern/Turkic cannot be counted on. Now it seems that between Xianbei and Rouran, the saint still chose Xianbei as an ally.

Just, why?

Qin Wan's mind was no longer focused on the song and dance in front of him, and he quickly went through the history of Xianbei.

When the Xianbei power was at its strongest, they were all over the country from Hexi, Longxi to Heishui, and the ancestors of Rouran were just slaves of the Xianbei and Xianbei tribes. Later, Xianbei fell into internal 'chaos', and the five major tribes of Tuoba, Murong, Begging, Bald and Yuwen fought to the death, and Rouran took advantage of the situation to rise.

The enemy but Rouran's Xianbei was divided into several branches, and the begging department and the bald department retreated to Longxi, established Tuyuhun, and continued to move against Daxia in the Western Regions, and was finally defeated by the former Anxi Dadu Huwu Chengjun Gong. Although the country has not been broken, it has been greatly damaged, and there is no power to fight back for 30 years.

After the defeat in the war with Rouran, the Tuoba tribe retreated to the north, and from time to time 'rioted' to disturb the border of Rouran, and the Murong tribe rushed to the east to exchange songs with Goguryeo. Rouran also met the power struggle of the Khan Ye Hu, which was also a major reason why the last few decades of the previous dynasty were rotten and rotten, but they were able to survive, until 90 years ago, the iron-blooded overlord who abolished Ye Hu's post The Khan of the case lance gathered military power and sent troops to attack the Murong Ministry, and the defeated Murong Ministry, in desperation, had to take refuge in the Tuoba Ministry, and looked up to the people for seventy or eighty years. In less than ten years, the Murong clan suddenly turned over and became the master of Xianbei.

Xianbei is weak? Not necessarily! Rouran has been broken and has been suppressed by the Turks all these years, and it may not be much stronger than Xianbei, which has developed in a muffled voice. The Turks were divided into two branches, east and west, both internally and externally, fighting openly and secretly. Xianbei, who has an ambiguous relationship with Goguryeo, will be more suitable than Rouran?

Qin Wan subconsciously looked towards the seats of the envoys of various countries, but found that someone looked away unnaturally, and suddenly thought of an anecdote.

It stands to reason that the grudge between Rouran and the Xianbei Tuoba tribe is even deeper, so why attack the Murong tribe with the support of Goguryeo?

Nearly a hundred years ago, no one knew the truth at that time, but there have always been rumors in the market that the Murong clan is the best looking branch in the Xianbei tribes, and the clansmen are all tall, fair-skinned, and beautiful. Some people even say that the remnants of Murong defected to the Tuoba Ministry, not only offering 'women', but even men, so that they were protected by the Tuoba Ministry.

The history of barnyard officials, the more fragrant and 'glamorous' it is, the longer it will be spread, and the people who say it will dance with their eyebrows, and those who listen will smile. Just like the Hu people's custom of "accepting stepmarriage", the Han people spurned that it was really unreasonable, but on the other hand, they described how the Hu people killed each other for a 'female' person, father and son, and brother killed each other.

These anecdotes, Qin Wan originally listened to them, and the Murong Department of the Heart Dao did not destroy the clan, so he took the remnants and connections to take refuge, although he was robbed while the fire was made, he finally had a place to stay. Think about Hu Ren's unreasonable style, and then think about Rouran and Xianbei who have been competing against each other for so many years, there are always losses and wins, right? The Western Turks lost to Great Xia and sent a princess Ashina, and Xianbei lost to Rouran......

If the Murong clan really suffered too much humiliation as he thought, he would be able to explain today's singing and harmony - internally, the Murong clan wants to suppress the Tuoba clan; Externally, Xianbei had to deal with Rouran, and even the allied forces of Rouran and the Turks.

Dead relatives can be ignored, but alive but reduced to playthings, so that the high Xianbei nobles and even the royal family 'shame' relatives? People live with a face, trees live with a skin, and then listen to others to talk a 'thrill'...... People want to have more of themselves. What's more, there are only a few passages for foreign races to enter the Central Plains, if you want to control it for your own ambitions, at least close to these fortresses, the battle between Xianbei and Rouran will definitely not be avoided!

As soon as he thought of this, Qin Wan's gaze fell on the Xianbei envoy again, and when he saw that he looked embarrassed, he seemed to wake up, and he was struggling, and he had no ambition at all.

The saints all said that they were going to compete, and they counted all the missions of various countries in one sentence, even if they were reluctant, how could they refuse? Besides, even if you want to refuse, you can't find an excuse! Say that the prairie men are a bad breed and dare not fight? Or is it that this time it is not the warriors of the clan, but the weakness of the clan?

The envoys of various countries scolded the Xianbei envoy countless times in their hearts, and they didn't react so quickly, but they only felt itchy teeth, and they didn't understand why Xianbei sent such an embroidered 'flower' pillow over. But he thought about it, and he didn't understand what was wrong - it was normal for the Great Xia Emperor to propose a martial arts competition, and the envoys of various countries brought fewer people, so if you really want to compare, who loses and who wins, does it need to be said? This...... Is it to raise the prestige of the Great Xia country and deter them? It's a good reason, but why does he think something is wrong?

Before he could come up with a reason, both sides had set the time, and three days later, the Imperial Garden!

Hearing "three days", Simo's eyelids jumped.

He hadn't forgotten that three days later would be the day they agreed to meet the man in gray again.

The news of Chang'an was the fastest spread, and on the second day of the sage's Qianqiu, the news that the acting king refused the throne of the prince had given wings and spread all over the streets and alleys of Chang'an. The storyteller immediately changed to a new book, talking about what happened in the court yesterday, how the sage called the king benevolent and virtuous, and wanted to make the eldest son the crown prince, and how the king refused politely. It is said vividly, as if you have seen it with your own eyes.

"His Royal Highness the Acting King is really willing to be reincarnated, and his father will be resurrected!" The storyteller danced with his hands and spittle, "Emperor Yao heard that Xu You was famous and wanted to pass on the throne to him, but Xu You refused to resign." Emperor Yao made him the governor of Kyushu again, and he went to Yingshui to wash his ears. Let the Son of Heaven be noble, this is the great sage, there was Xu Yu and Father in the past, and now there is our noble eldest son of the emperor on behalf of His Royal Highness, it is really my luck in Daxia! ”

The people don't understand these big truths, but they understand that being the emperor is the best thing in the world, but His Royal Highness the Acting King is inappropriate, although most of the people think that His Royal Highness the Acting King is a bit stupid, and they don't want to ask for the great benefits, but they hear that everyone is praising the acting king, so they follow suit. After responding for a long time, when the acting king is mentioned, the first reaction is that His Royal Highness the acting king is a good person who can not even be the son of heaven!

Of course, some people ask, in this case, why does His Royal Highness the Acting King still want to be the secretary of Zongzheng Temple? Someone immediately retorted, saying that Zongzheng Siqing can only be taken on by the elders of the royal family with high morality, and His Royal Highness the King of Shu is in poor health, and he has been cultivating in the past few years, except for His Royal Highness the Acting King, who is worthy of it? Even if you give up the position of the Son of Heaven, will you care about this fame and fortune? His Royal Highness the Acting King is undoubtedly sharing the worries of the saints, what filial piety!

Up and down the court, the people of Shilin, all praised the king, and through the mouth of the storyteller, there was another saying in the streets: "Guo Chang of Zhongshan County, have you heard of it?" The father of Empress Guangwu Guo! Guo Chang, as the eldest son who inherited the family business, gave all the family wealth to his half-brother! Such benevolence and righteousness are not only praised by the people of the county, but also entrusted by the prefect, and even the king of Zhending values his righteous deeds and marries his love 'daughter'. ”

"Guo Chang is benevolent, righteous and virtuous, and Lord Guo is kind and concise, so it is no wonder that King Gong of the East China Sea resigned from the prince. It's a pity, it's a pity! The hero of Emperor Guangwu was "blinded" by the "adulterous" concubine, not only abolished Empress Guo, but also allowed the resignation of King Gong of the East China Sea, but made the son of the "adulterous" concubine the emperor. If not, the Han dynasty will continue for another one or two hundred years. ”

This remark reached the ears of the acting king, and the acting king almost jumped up: "Who is this?" Lone has already done this, and they still don't let go of Lone? ”

Qin Wan dared to say that he asked his father to emulate the old story of King Gong of the East China Sea, it was because everyone knew that playing this play was for fear of persecution by his brother, but could this be said on the surface? This remark seems to be vigorously touting the acting king, but in fact, it is very damaging!
