Chapter 32: Prince Rouran
"Li'er!"
Tuoba Jun shouted Feng Luoli before he entered the Zhaoyang Palace, and his slightly cold voice was a little hurried.
"What's wrong?"
Feng Luoli greeted him, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Tuoba Jun.
"This morning, Woye Town reported that Rouran sent the prince Yucheng to congratulate him."
"Yu Cheng?!"
Who is Yucheng?! The third son of Rouran Khan Tuhe Zhen, born very different, with extraordinary strength, he led the Rouran army to fight Gaoliang twice at the age of twelve, both won more with less, and won a complete victory, and captured tens of thousands of money, cattle and sheep.
When Yu Cheng's grandfather Wu Ti was alive, he violated the border of the Northern Wei Dynasty several times, and carried Yu Cheng out on the expedition, and it is said that he repeatedly offered miraculous strategies and made great achievements.
Tuoba Jun nodded, "This time Rouran is called Chaoxian, but in fact, it is to explore the truth of my Great Wei, and the sinister intentions have to be guarded against!" ”
"How does Your Majesty plan to respond?"
"Set up cards layer by layer, keep a close eye on their whereabouts, and I've already secretly asked him to secretly keep a close eye on Toga's movements. Once there is a change, immediately use the power of Woye Town and Bo Gulu to guard the generals. ”
"Kumoxi, Tuyuhun, and Rouran are all adjacent to our border, and the suspicion of collusion must be guarded against."
Tuoba Jun turned his head to look at Feng Luoli and nodded, "Li'er, you are thinking about it very much!" Once the three of them collude to become a trend, my Great Wei will be in danger. Kumoxi is located in a bitter cold place, today has been repeatedly hit by heavy rain, grain, grass, fabrics are in short supply, and now it is a bitter cold time, presumably in urgent need of cold and hunger. Then use this as bait for a little lobbying, and it will not be a big deal. As for Tuyuhun, Mu Liyan has coveted my Great Wei Jincheng, Longxi and other places for a long time, and the imperial grandfather had repeatedly clashed with him when he was there. This person is more than brave, but his martial arts strategy is insufficient, and what he covets is only the immediate advantage, and it is easy to win over. In comparison, Rouran can be said to be the old enemy of my Great Wei, and now Rouran passed on the throne to Tuhe Zhen, which is no big problem, but his son Yucheng has to be guarded against! ”
Feng Luoli listened quietly, and slowly refilled some hot tea into Tuoba Jun's cup, "Your Majesty, although Yu Cheng is strong, but Rouran sent envoys to congratulate, there are only dozens of people, Rao is he is brave and tactful, and there will be no chaos if he takes strict precautions." On the contrary, it is Kumoxi, Tuyuhun and even Khitan, which border with my Great Wei, how to use grace and power for my use, but I need to pay more attention to the virtuous and important ministers of my court. ”
"I didn't expect Li'er to be such a strategic person! I'm underestimating. ”
Tuoba Jun was surprised by Feng Luoli's insightful words, the woman who had always been to protect was so talented.
Feng Luoli was shocked, she didn't know that the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, especially not to be pampered and arrogant, and hurriedly bent her lips and smiled lightly, "Your Majesty said that she laughed, the concubine just repeated His Majesty's words, where is there any opinion to speak of." ”
Tuoba Jun naturally knew Feng Luoli's concerns, and reached out to take her into his arms, "Li'er, I don't blame you, in my heart you are my only wife, I want you to be happy every day, don't worry about these troublesome mundane things." I just want you to be my happiest queen. ”
"Queen?!" Feng Luoli didn't feel a trembling in her heart, is this to allow her the position of the middle palace? In this harem, can she really stand by his side so smoothly and compete with him? But, as long as he's around, isn't it? His dedication to allowing her to be happy and carefree was enough.
When the time of the pilgrimage arrived, the envoys of various countries arrived at the post house under the martial law escort of the capital Su Wei Supervisor. Lu Li, the king of the plains, personally greeted him and discussed the pilgrimage to the palace, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves between the cups.
The place where the envoys of various countries pay tribute is selected in the Astronomical Palace, which is decorated with red silk, which is extremely majestic, and the red felt carpet extends from the door to the court. Tuoba Jun was wearing a gilded crown dress of the twelve chapters of Jiuhan, kneeling behind the dragon book case with a majestic expression, his eyes were cold and he looked at the envoys of various countries who walked into the court with gentleness and tolerance.
Baoda, Sha Hunt, Kumo Xi, and Rouran are all barbarians of the nations, but their costumes are very different: among the envoys of the leaders of the four countries, Rouran Yucheng is particularly conspicuous
Yu Cheng is about nine feet tall, with braided hair on the left side, wearing a long brocade jacket with animal skin pleated pants, black boots, a wide forehead, thick eyebrows, a dark complexion, thick lips, and a pair of eagle-like eyes under high cheekbones staring at the condescending Tuoba Jun without fear.
Presumably, the envoys of other countries are much inferior.
It is no different from the previous court offerings, Baoda, Sha Hunting, and Kumo Xi all offered jewelry, cattle and sheep, and fabrics, and Yu Cheng, who was in the middle, was the last to stand up.
He glanced at Tuoba Jun with great contempt, glanced at the civil and military officials, and slightly bowed his hand to Tuoba Jun, and said in a loud voice: "My Khan received a letter from the emperor of your country, saying that he ceded ten cities to our country and had thousands of cattle and sheep to repair the two countries for a hundred years. This prince is here today to ask you to fulfill your promise to the emperor. ”
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including Tuoba Jun, were all surprised by Yucheng's words.
Only one person's expression remained unchanged, and he slowly stepped forward in obedience, "Prince Yucheng, how do you say this?" If Your Majesty has this letter, why don't you let me wait and see, so as to avoid the suspicion that the prince is not a fool. ”
Yu Cheng's eyes darkened suddenly, he looked at the person who spoke, wearing a purple court robe, and his handsome and fair face had the courage of thousands of troops and horses that could not move, and said coldly: "The letter is here, can this prince still deceive you?!" ”
Saying that, Yu Cheng took out a bright yellow fire paint letter from his arms, and all the hundreds of officials changed their expressions, the bright yellow fire paint envelope was used by the emperor for special secret edicts, and Yu Cheng held it, isn't it......
Murong Baiyao smiled slightly, took the letter, opened it and looked at it, the corners of his lips hung a strange arc, and then put the letter back in the envelope and handed it back to Cheng, "I think the prince is because he is in a withered land, and he doesn't know that the emperor has eradicated Zong Ai's rebel son to calm the world, and the letter in the prince's hand is written by Zong Ai's edict, which is really a traitor to the country." The crown prince is a noble lord, how can he mistake the words of the traitor for the honor of the Ninety-Five?! ”
Yu Cheng's face changed suddenly, and his voice suddenly became gloomy, "Who are you?" This letter was obviously written by the emperor of your country, how can you regret and slander this prince?! ”
Murong Baiyao smiled lightly, and said loudly: "Prince Yucheng doesn't know, Zong Aiyuan and Weichen are ministers in the same dynasty, and Zong Ai must first re-ink every sentence of the first sentence, and the ink must be deep compared to other forces on the back of the paper." For this reason, in the Book of Zong Love, the ink through the back of the paper is only the first line. Most of the officials in my court know about this matter, and the prince will know it as soon as he asks. Just gave this letter to Prince Cheng, and Weichen concluded that it was written by Zong Ai. The book of traitors, Prince Cheng can laugh at it. ”
When all the courtiers heard Murong Baiyao's words, all those who had known Zong Ai nodded yes.
