Just when the crown prince Liu Qi was indignant about this, news came from the Xiongnu side that the Xiongnu old Shangshan Yu died of illness, and his son Zuoxian Wang Junchen took over as the Xiongnu Shan Yu.

In the early morning of the second day, at the court meeting in Weiyang Palace, Emperor Wen asked the ministers: "Qing and others think that the Xiongnu are newly established in Yu, how should my Han do it."

When the ministers heard this, they whispered, "I don't know if this new Xiongnu Shan Yu will lead the troops to commit the ...... of my Han realm."

Qu Zhou Hou Li sent a preface and said: "Your Majesty, the Xiongnu Xinli Shan Yu, my Han naturally wants to send envoys to the Xiongnu royal court to find out the attitude of the Xiongnu Shan Yu towards our Han, if the Xiongnu and my Han reconcile is the best, if there is hostility to our Han, but you can also take precautions as soon as possible."

The young prince Fu Chao said wrongly: "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Qu Zhou sees great goodness, and he should be like this, and he should be like this."

"I also agree with the meaning of Qu Zhouhou, but I don't know who to send to the Xiongnu."

As soon as Emperor Wen said this, the hall was silent.

Emperor Wen had to sigh with emotion: "It's a pity that Lu Qing is not here at this time, if he is here, he will definitely be able to send the Huns to me."

Lu Qing refers to Lu Jia, when Zhao Tuo of Nanyue called himself the emperor, it was Emperor Wen who ordered Lu Jia to send an envoy to Nanyue, persuading Zhao Tuo to accept the seal of the king of Nanyue given by the Han Dynasty, saying that he was a minister to the Han Covenant, and Lu Jia had died of illness in the seventh year of Emperor Wen......

"Your Majesty is not in a hurry, the minister thinks that Li Xin, the middle doctor, can be used to envoy the Huns", Prime Minister Shen Tu Jiayan said.

"Why did the prime minister recommend this person".

"Your Majesty doesn't know that this person is a cadre and witty, and he will definitely be able to complete his mission."

"In this case, let's follow the prime minister's wishes."

In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, the emperor treated the prime minister with great courtesy. According to the ritual regulations of the Han Dynasty appointing and dismissing prime ministers, the emperor himself attended the court meeting in person, and officials with more than 600 stone in Beijing must attend the meeting.

When the prime minister is promoted, the emperor must be received in the main hall in official court clothes. After the prime minister finishes his work and resigns, the emperor wants to stand up and send him to the palace gate, and the emperor will generally obey the words of the prime minister.

And this Li Xin went to the court of the Xiongnu under the emperor's order......

The Xiongnu's military minister Shan Yu was the Xiongnu Shan Yu who was later ambushed and attacked by Liu Yu in Mayi.

After a month-long trek, Li Xin finally arrived at the court of the Xiongnu and met the military minister Shan Yu.

In the tent of the king of the Huns, Li Xin held the festival to meet the Huns Shan Yu, and said, "Meet Shan Yu!" On the orders of the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, I sent an envoy to the Xiongnu to submit the credentials."

Military minister Shan Yu said: "Hahaha, the national letter, how come this single Yu doesn't know what the national book is!" Ben Shan Yu also thought that the emperor of the Han Dynasty sent someone to send the princess of the Han Dynasty to come to make peace."

"How can Shan Yu speak like this, my Emperor of the Han Dynasty sent an envoy to come, Shan Yu's words, wouldn't it hurt the friendship between the Han and the Xiongnu."

As soon as Li Xin said this, the Hun general on the side said, "Hahaha, how can the eagle flying in the sky have any friendship with sheep!" ”。

"Bastard, shut up, there is no place for you to speak in front of me."

The military minister Shan Yu turned his head to look at the angry Han envoy Li Xin and said: "Since the envoy of the Han Dynasty has arrived at the land of my big-breasted slaves, this Shan Yu naturally wants to entertain well. ”

Li Xin saw the mutton eaten by the Huns, and couldn't help frowning, thinking: It is really a barbarian, disgusting......

The military minister Shan Yu, while cutting the mutton with a knife and sending it to his mouth, said: "How does the Han envoy think I am a big-breasted slave."

Li Xin said: "Although the Hun cavalry is strong, I have heard that the Huns are vulgar and old."

The Bank of China, who was sitting on the side, said with a smile: "Han customs, whenever there is a soldier who is a general, his parents will save money and send delicious food to their children, is it true?" ”。”

Li Xin replied, "I think so." The Bank of China said: "The Xiongnu Ming War is a matter, and its old and weak can not fight, so it is eaten by the strong and healthy with its delicious diet, which is to defend themselves, so how can it be said that the Huns are light and old?" ”。

In that year, Emperor Wen sent the princess and his relatives, so that the Bank of China said to go together, but he refused to be forcibly sent by the Han court.

Resentful, he said to Emperor Wen of Han: "If I go to the Xiongnu, I will definitely threaten the Han State." Emperor Wen only thought he was talking angrily, and he didn't care. Unexpectedly, the Bank of China said that as soon as he arrived at the Huns, he surrendered immediately, and was deeply pleased and favored by the old Shangdan.

The Bank of China said that it tried its best to persuade the Xiongnu not to look at the exquisite clothes and food of the Han Dynasty, increase the Xiongnu's self-confidence in their own food, equipment, and customs, and also taught the Xiongnu how to count, and from then on these barbarians knew how to count.

Under his instigation, Lao Shangdan Yu was arrogant in his reply to Emperor Wen, and he also coerced and lured the envoys of the Han Dynasty, asking for money, gold and silver at every turn, and threatening to send troops and horses into the Han realm after the autumn maturity to trample on it.

Li Xin said again: "The Xiongnu father and son are sleeping in the same room. After the death of the father, the son shall take his mother as his wife. When a brother dies, the living brother shall be the wife of the deceased ......".

"My big-breasted slave and the minister have a simple relationship, and the political affairs of a country are like the body of a man, and the father, son, and brother are dead, and the living take their wives to be their wives, which is the fear of the disappearance of the race.

Therefore, although the Xiongnu are often chaotic, they must establish the descendants of their own clan. Although the Han Dynasty pretends to be decent and does not marry the wives of their fathers and brothers, their relatives are even more estranged from each other, and they kill each other, and even change their surnames, which is caused by this.

Moreover, the malpractice of propriety and righteousness caused resentment among the king's subjects, and he tried his best to build palace houses, which inevitably exhausted the people's strength.

The people of the Han Dynasty worked hard to cultivate the fields and grow mulberry in order to be satisfied with food and clothing, and built cities to defend themselves, so the people did not practice their offensive skills when they were in a hurry, but they were tired from labor when they were relaxed. How can I compare to my big-breasted slave warriors, but ride horses and shoot all day long, isn't it happy? ”。

Li Xin, who was speechless about what the Bank of China said, was speechless......

A few days after Li Xin was in the Xiongnu, he returned to the Han border with a letter written by the military minister Shan Yu.

When he returned to Chang'an, he presented the letter to the Son of Heaven, and Emperor Wen looked at it, only to see the letter in the middle of the road: The Xiongnu Dadan, who was born of heaven and earth and placed by the sun and the moon, respectfully greeted the emperor of the Han Dynasty for safety............

Since the Bank of China talked about the Xiongnu, under his instigation, the Xiongnu were so arrogant in their letters.

Subsequently, Emperor Wen circulated this book to the ministers in the early dynasty, and Prime Minister Shen Tujia first said: "Your Majesty, the ministers read this book, and from Li Xin's mouth, the Xiongnu Shan Yu seems to want to reconcile with my Han, which is really a blessing."

The ministers said yes, and there was a "poem" doctor who said that the Huns were single-mindedly newly established, and were elected as the daughter of a clan, and reconciled with the Huns.

Doctor, started in the Warring States. At the time of Qin Shi Huang, there were 70 doctors. Han Cheng Qin system, all sons have doctors. During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, he first established a doctor of "books" and "poems", and established a doctor of biography of Zhuzi, with more than 70 doctors.
