In order to pacify the tribes, I often corresponded with the small tribes under Yuexi, and helped them formulate laws and solve the problem that had always plagued them for vendetta against each other, so that many tribes showed goodwill to me.

I heard that there was a tribal leader named Ning Yue, whose father was a close friend of Hu Yanlie, the chief lieutenant of the Xiongnu, and this leader often visited Hu Yanlie's house.

So I asked Chu Jinmo to invite the leader of Ning Yue into the palace, a small banquet on the third day, a big banquet on the fifth day, and a gift of gold and silver, and the leader of Ning Yue was so happy that he couldn't think of returning.

"King Chu, your place is really good, there is wine to drink every day, gold, silver, agate, jade, pearls, jade, so many good things I have never seen in my life. King Chu, why are you so good to me? Chief Ning Yue asked.

Chu Jinmo put down his wine glass and said, "It's not for anything, I'm just righteous, so I can make friends." I see that the big leader is arrogant, and I want to recognize you as a friend! ”

The leader of Ning Yue was moved, and said, "What is the use of King Chu, just open your mouth!"

Chu Jinmo said lightly: "I have a wish. After speaking, he deliberately didn't look at the leader of Ning Yue.

The leader of Ning Yue immediately said: "If King Chu has any wishes, just say it!" You are the lord of Yuexi, and you are willing to make friends with a small clan leader like me, and I will definitely help you fulfill your wish! ”

Chu Jinmo saw that the opportunity had come, so he said: "I heard that the Grand Commander Hu Yanlie has a treasure knife that was given by King Zuo Xian, and this knife sharpens iron like clay. I have a good martial arts life, so I especially like this exquisite and peerless sword. I really want to see this treasure knife, but I don't know if I have the fate to see this treasure knife in this life. ”

After speaking, Chu Jinmo let out a long sigh, looking very regretful.

Leader Ning Yue patted his chest: "Isn't it just a knife, no problem, you wait for me to bring it to you." ”

I asked, "Leader Ning Yue, what do you say?" ”

Ning Yue's leader said: "Miss Lan, don't worry, you can't be wrong, I have seen that knife, so I will bring it to King Chu!" After saying that, he immediately got up and took his leave, and walked away.

Soon he came back a few days later, holding the treasure knife in his hand, offering it to Chu Jinmo, and said, "King Chu, look, is it this knife?" ”

Chu Jinmo pulled out the treasure knife and saw that the cold light on the knife was engraved with the name of King Zuoxian: "Great, this is this knife, it is a treasure knife given by King Zuo Xian!" ”

I wondered, "How did Leader Ning Yue get it back?" ”

The leader of Ning Yue said proudly: "My father and Hu Yanlie are good friends, and I often go to the house of the Grand Captain. He is usually reluctant to hang this knife on his body, and he only uses it when he goes into battle to kill the enemy, and he rests on the knife holder on weekdays. Just as I was going, he went hunting, and I took the knife and came back. ”

I smiled faintly, how could Hu Yanlie happen to be so out of the house, it was just that I sent a secret letter to Helian Rui, asking him to encourage Hu Yanlie to go hunting. However, this arrangement naturally can't be said to Ning Yue's leader.

Chu Jinmo said with a smile: "Thank you Leader Ningyue, I finally got what I wanted!" ”

The leader of Ning Yue hurriedly waved his hand and said: "King Chu is serious, you treat my tribe as kind as a mountain, and you regard me as a friend, this little meaning is not enough to worry about!" ”

After sending off the leader of Ning Yue, Chu Jinmo asked me, "Hu Yanlie's treasure knife has been obtained, what do you want to do next?" ”

I said: "You ordered to spread the news on the dark line of the Xiongnu, and you must shout it to everyone in the Xiongnu territory." ”

Chu Jinmo's eyes shone brightly, "Oh? Said that Hu Yanlie betrayed King Zuoxian? ”

I restrained my smile and said: "Let's just say that the Dadu Lieutenant Hu Yanlie surrendered to the Han Dynasty, relying on the saber on his waist, but he was discovered by the traitor King Zuo Xian and executed the Dadu Lieutenant Hu Yanlie, so my Han soldiers and civilians were extremely sad." The Han Dynasty prepared to do a grand ritual on the border to sacrifice to the Grand Commander Hu Yanlie. ”

Chu Jinmo nodded: "In this way, let the Huns know the benevolence and righteousness of the Han Dynasty." ”

After discussing it, I found a group of Chu Jinmo's cronies and asked them to pretend to be Taoist priests. Banners, drums, suona, everything, like a decent Taoist priest sacrifice group.

I said to the people, "Treat yourselves as true Taoists, and make as loud noises as possible!" ”

After Chu Jinmo and I changed their disguises, we took these fake Taoist priests pretending to be cronies and guards and went to the border between the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty.

When they arrived at the border, everyone arranged the incense case on the top of the mountain, and the paper people and paper horses were all available, and they began to put paper money and burn paper money. I smeared the paper money with fire oil beforehand, and when I threw it into the fire, the flames were so bright that they were several feet high.

Chu Jinmo praised: "You have done enough. ”

I threw a handful of paper money into the fire and said with a smile: "Just send off the Grand Lieutenant in advance!" ”

Chu Jinmo raised a gesture to his subordinates pretending to be Taoist priests, and everyone understood and began to act. For a time, prayer flags fluttered, drums were noisy, and the sad sound of suona resounded across the earth.

I took out the spirit tablet that had been engraved, and wrote it on the front in the small seal script of the Han Dynasty: The spiritual position of the Great Captain Hu Yanlie. On the back is engraved a memorial text.

Then the spirit tablet with the sacrificial text written on it is burned in the fire, and the key words are not burned, and the other places are incomplete.

It's almost burned, I took it out and looked at it, Chu Jinmo leaned over and read: "Dadu Lieutenant abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, returned to my big man, unfortunately killed, woo hoo lament, Fu Wei is still feasting..."

Chu Jinmo was halfway through reading, and couldn't help laughing, "Mu Lan, I thought you were the most powerful in scheming, but I didn't expect you to be a good hand at writing this kind of sacrifice!" ”

I also smiled and said, "Although I haven't written this kind of sacrificial text, I can see a lot." ”

Chu Jin Moqi said: "Where have you seen it?" ”

Of course, I can't tell him that I had seen too much on TV before I came to the Western Han Dynasty. He winked at him at the moment, "I can't tell you!" ”

Chu Jinmo put the treasure knife he got from the leader of Ning Yue in front of the spirit tablet and said, "Everyone bow down to the Grand Captain!" ”

Everyone pretended to bow down to the spirit card.

This movement was so loud that the Hun patrols found that the mountain was on fire. I looked out from the mountain, and saw a group of Hun soldiers rushing towards the sacrificial place.

Chu Jinmo also saw the Hun soldiers, and he commanded everyone, "The Hun soldiers have been lured over, the task is complete, everyone take off their robes and retreat quickly!" ”

As soon as everyone took off their robes, they got on their horses and ran, running faster than the Huns, and disappeared on the border between the Huns and the Han after a while.

After returning to Whitewater City, all I have to do is wait for the news of Helian Rui, the dark line I planted next to Hu Yanlie. It didn't take long for Helian Rui to run back.

Helian Rui came to see me immediately after entering the city, and said excitedly: "Master, the plan has been accomplished!" ”

I was holding a cup of tea to my mouth, and when I saw Helian Rui, who was in the dust, I hurriedly put down the tea cup in my hand and hurriedly walked down the hall, "What's wrong?" ”

Helian Rui was overjoyed: "Congratulations to the master, King Zuo Xian has killed Hu Yanlie!" ”

"Really?"

"It's true!"

I'll smile and it's done! At that moment, he asked Ming Helian Rui about what happened.

Helian Rui said: "On that day, the Huns found that the mountain was on fire and quickly came to the rescue. As a result, when I arrived at the place of sacrifice, I saw the exquisite sacrificial incense burner, which was all real money. ”

I said lightly: "It's all sacrifices made of a thousand taels of gold, and this time King Chu has made a lot of money." ”

Helian Rui continued: "When those Hun soldiers saw these good things, they stepped forward to rob them, and then they found the spirit card left by their master. The leading officer saw that it was written: The Grand Lieutenant called for the spiritual position of Yanlie, and shouted that it was not good. I saw a treasure knife next to it, and when I pulled it out, I saw that the name of King Zuo Xian was engraved on the knife. ”

"The sacrificial text has not been burned, the key words can be read all, the leading officer immediately concluded that Hu Yanlie must have defected, and hurriedly reported to King Zuo Xian: Hu Yanlie rebelled, the evidence is conclusive, the physical evidence is there, and all the witnesses have run away, I didn't expect these Taoist priests to run so fast!"

Doris was fanning me behind me, and when she heard her brother Helian Rui talk about this, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Master, he said that you are a fast Taoist priest!" ”

I couldn't help laughing, "Isn't it seen through if you don't run fast?" Helian Rui, you continued. ”

Helian Rui also smiled: "The master comes and goes like the wind, of course he can't be caught by the Huns." King Zuo Xian was furious when he learned of this, and he said that he didn't need a witness, and the evidence was ironclad. A few years ago, Hu Yanlie patrolled the border, he went deep into the territory of the Han Dynasty, and did not return for a few days, I don't know where he went, maybe he went to Chang'an to negotiate with the emperor of the Han Dynasty to surrender! ”

I asked, "How does King Zuo Xian deal with Hu Yanlie?" ”

Helian Rui said: "King Zuo Xian decided that Huyanlie would rebel and the Huyan clan must be eliminated, and he wanted to kill the entire Huyanlie clan, but King Zuo Xian fell in love with Huyanlie's wife. ”

I wondered, "Who is Hu Yanlie's wife?" ”

Doris hurriedly said: "Master, I know that Hu Yanlie's wife is a famous beauty of the Huns, named Mo Yan." ”

Helian Rui nodded and said: "Mo Yan is indeed a beauty, King Zuo Xian was reluctant to kill her, so he gave Hu Yanlie to death." After Hu Yanlie was imprisoned, King Zuo Xian sent someone to see Hu Yanlie with the treasure knife he had given, and the messenger did not say a word, but presented the treasure knife with both hands. ”

I smiled and said: "Hu Yanlie must have mixed tastes when he holds this knife, he lost the knife inexplicably, and he lost it inexplicably and got it back, but this time he took it back and no longer used it to kill the enemy." He Hu Yanlie must not have imagined that he would not die from the enemy and die at the imperial court. ”

Helian Rui said: "The master is right, Hu Yanlie took this treasure knife and raised the knife to kill himself." ”

I stood up, "Helian Rui, you have done a good job, you don't have to go back to the Xiongnu Royal Court, stay in Baishui City to reunite with your sister in the future." ”

Helian Rui immediately bowed to the ground: "Thank you, master!" ”

As soon as Hu Yanlie died, no one said anything about Chu Jinmo in front of King Zuoxian, and he asked the Xiongnu to fight Yuexi. In this way, Chu Jinmo was able to free up his hands to concentrate on governing Whitewater City.

But there is another hidden danger, that is, Chu Anguo who escaped. If this person is not removed, I am afraid that it will be a great disaster in the future.

Helplessly, Chu Jinmo felt that he had robbed Chu Anguo of the position of the lord of the country, and he was already guilty, and he didn't even send an army to chase after Chu Anguo when he fled, and now he was even more unwilling to deal with him.

The top priority is to subdue the subordinates and strengthen the power of Whitewater City, and I have made up my mind that the next step is to make Whitewater City stronger!
