Chapter 43 The Great Adjustment of the Strategy of the Han Court

Emperor Wu smiled slightly: "Bo Wanghou, if I cut off the right wing of the Xiongnu and open up the Hexi Corridor for you." ”

Everyone's hearts tightened, this is a major adjustment of Hanting's strategy, Zhang Qian bowed to the ground: "Your Majesty's grand plan is far-sighted." ”

Emperor Wu waved his hand and said: "The general has recovered the Hetao for me, and if you want to attack Hexi, you will have a strategic basis to destroy the right wing of the Xiongnu." Open up the Hexi Corridor, I have even chosen a general. ”

Everyone has a different taste in their hearts. Zhang Qian saw the customs of the Western Regions. It was as if I heard the sound of the huqin and the qiang flute. Wei Qing remembered the dead soldiers who followed him to capture Gaoque and build the city. I remembered the Jin Ge Iron Horse of the year, the desert yellow sand. Huo Quzhi remembered the endless grassland, the goshawks flying in the sky, and the desolate and tragic scene when the sun set.

Zhang Qian was very excited: "Once the Hexi Corridor is opened, the connection between my Han and the Western Regions will be unimpeded from now on." The prestige of our Chinese culture and education can be spread far to the West, and if people are not convinced, they will cultivate literature and morality. The Lile conquest came from the Son of Heaven. Business travel strange goods, endless, rare treasures, all collected in Weiyang Palace. Your Majesty xià is a groundbreaking thing, I don't know when it will be implemented. ”

Emperor Wu smiled slightly, picked up the wine cup, and smiled without saying a word.

Wei Qing was a little lonely. Quietly gone. Emperor Wu didn't care about him. Huo Quzhi was still sitting there in a daze, looking forward to making some contributions to His Majesty's ambitions.

Wei Qing returned to the apse. Dullly without speaking, he took a sip of the wine cup.

In the palace, every word spoken publicly can be spread all over the world in an instant, so every word the emperor and queen say must be cautious and thoughtful. The strategy revealed by Emperor Wu just now reached the ears of the empress.

The queen sighed and said, "Your Majesty has a grand plan again. But looking at it, it seems that I don't want to reuse you, and I received the general's tiger talisman and didn't return it to you. ”

Wei Qing raised his head and glanced at his sister, then buried his head again.

The queen said: "The emperor is more and more favored to Mrs. Li's family......

While the two were talking, Huo Quzhi came in again and shouted, "Uncle, aunt." ”

Wei Qing asked, "Come, drink with my uncle." ”

Wei Zifu asked, "Dispersed so soon?" ”

Huo Qu said indifferently: "Your Majesty is gone, I'm not in the mood, so I'm gone." Uncle, this time the emperor wants me to attack the Youxian Wang's department from Dunhuang to Juyanhai. I think such an important guts. I'm a fledgling, I'm afraid it's hard to be competent, and I want to ask my uncle to take charge......"

Wei Qing stopped: "Don't talk nonsense, come and drink." The emperor's decision to let you go must have been well thought out, and I think this is to let you be alone, don't let me down. ”

Xue Qing just wanted to come over, but saw Chuntuo coming outside, with two eunuchs.

Chuntuo met with the queen and the general. The queen asked, "Why is Chuntuo here, is there something wrong with Your Majesty?" ”

Chuntuo bowed his body and said, "Your Majesty, please ask Yuki Neiji to meet you." ”

Wei Qing remembered that Huo Qubing was open-mouthed in front of the emperor just now. I'm afraid this is the emperor's heart.

Xue Qing didn't know what to do. looked at Wei Qing and Huo Quai, and the two of them couldn't say anything. I could only follow Chuntuo to the front hall.

The feast in the front hall has been dispersed. In the back room of the inside. Emperor Wu was half-lying on the couch, and Zhang Qian and Han Yan stood in front of him on the left and right.

Xue Qing stepped forward to salute: "Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Wu squinted his eyes and asked: "Ah Xue, you once said that this world is far bigger than what Bo Wanghou has ever seen and heard, how did you say this, since the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, Bo Wanghou is the person I have traveled the farthest in China." Where did you know about a world he hadn't seen or heard of? ”

Xue Qing's heart jumped, damn, it must be Huo Quai, this stinky boy, has caused me trouble again. The desire to perform exploded instantly: "Your Majesty, the concubine once heard that there is a book called the Classic of Mountains and Seas, which records a lot of places, a lot of customs, and a lot of monsters. Bo Wanghou has walked so far, and he hasn't been able to catch a few monsters for His Majesty, so I guess he couldn't go that far......"

Emperor Wu had a dog-like expression on his face. shouted: "What about Tai Shi Ling, what about Tai Shi Ling"

Sima Qian rolled over with a roll. Emperor Wu asked: "Taishi is young and knowledgeable, have you ever heard of the Classic of Mountains and Seas?" ”

Sima Qian arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, there is such a book. ”

Emperor Wu asked, "Is there a distant overseas geography in this book?" Is it informative and credible? ”

Sima Qian shook his head: "It's not credible, it's mostly made up." The ministers have visited all over the country, and the mountains and seas are not even detailed in the records of many mountains and rivers in the Central Plains and Kyushu, let alone far overseas. As for the monsters mentioned in the book, let alone the living ones, no one has even seen them dead. Most of it is apocryphal. ”

Emperor Wu looked bored, waved his hand and said, "That's it, let's go." ”

Xue Qing followed Sima Qian and rolled out. Emperor Wu originally wanted to ask Xue Qing something, but who knew that she also ran away with Sima Qian, forget it.

Out of the main hall, Xue Qing wiped the cold sweat on her forehead, so hanging, if I tell you that there is a Roman Empire over there, God knows if there is or is it now, has ancient Babylon fallen? Who knows what year it is, there must be people in India, maybe there are Mayans in the Americas, wasa, Mayans have gold. Europe is still all barbarians. Is there a myth in ancient Greece now, was Homer born? Anyway, Jesus was not born yet, and there are still more than 200 years to go, because it is now 200 years B.C., and the first year of A.D. is the year when Jesus was born. Other ladies really don't know. I didn't graduate from the Department of History. I can't say it, I don't dare to believe it, you don't dare to believe it, it's troublesome if you believe it, how can the old lady explain that I know this?

Return to the apse. Huo Quzhi came out, and took out a key with excitement on his face: "Xue, Your Majesty rewarded me with 600 households, and now there are 1,600 households." Each household pays 300 yuan a year, which is 480,000 yuan a year, and the Shaofu allocated the mansion. Xue will take care of it for me, and choose a few housekeepers to take care of the fiefdom. Be a good housekeeper for me, you will be in charge of this house in the future, this is the key, you keep it. ”

Xue Qing had a calm face, took the key, raised her hand and threw it out. The brass key flashed a golden light under the light of the palace lamp, and plunged headlong into the snowdrift. Xue Qing said in a deep voice: "Get out"

After that, he went inside. Huo Qu was puzzled, and reached out to pull Xue Qing: "Xue, what's wrong with you." Why do you have such a big temper? ”

Xue Qing raised her foot and kicked like crazy, kicked a few times and was still angry, and slapped Huo Quzhi on the arm a few times.

Huo Quzhi cried out in pain: "What's wrong with the snow, how can I mess with you again." ”

Xue Qing snorted coldly and walked away.

The stunned queen and Wei Qing at the entrance of the main hall, Wei Zifu was completely confused: "Why did these two children fight." ”

Wei Qing waved his hand: "It's okay, children, it's normal to make trouble." Sister don't care. ”
