Chapter 568: The end of the battle is easy to open and not easy to end

Geng Xiaofan understood what was going on, his mind was a little confused, and he couldn't help but get up and paced back and forth in the hall.

"Gu Ju and Tang Dou deserve their crimes, even if they are escorted back to their home country to be punished by the Ming Dynasty. But his people are innocent, and they cannot be killed indiscriminately. Zhen Fu saw Geng Xiaofan's hesitation and suggested softly.

Seeing that he stopped and listened carefully, he continued, "As for Su Budang, whether he knows it or not, whether it is wrong or not, we can't pursue it too much this time. He had a special status in the Xiongnu, and even Wuzhu Liushan Yu was afraid of him, not only worried about him, but also wanted to rely on him. If he dealt with Su Budang at this time, he was also worried about internal chaos among the Xiongnu. ”

Geng Xiaofan returned to his seat and sat down again, staring at Zhen Fu for a long time, his brain spinning rapidly, judging Zhen Fu's intentions.

"Master Geng, in fact, I have always had a question." Zhen Fu was stared at a little unnaturally by Geng Xiaofan, and involuntarily lowered his head to avoid Geng Xiaofan's eyes.

"You say."

"Did you know me before, or have you heard of me?" Zhen Fu raised his head again.

Geng Xiaofan shook his head.

"Then why do you harbor prejudices against me?" Zhen Fu asked bluntly.

"Prejudice?" Geng Xiaofan frowned. After thinking about it carefully, this Zhen Fu only met him this time, and what he did did not affect him. Do you have a prejudice against him? There should be! The reason may simply be because his surname is Zhen and he is Zhen Han's brother.

I may have subconsciously regarded him as an "enemy". I didn't even feel this by myself, but Zhen Fu must have noticed it.

"I don't have a prejudice against you, but I should be a little wary." Geng Xiaofan was ready to make a point with Zhen Fu, because, after he thought about it carefully, he felt that this Zhen Fu had no malicious intentions, and according to the "information" he provided to himself today, he didn't seem to be in the same league as Han Long and Wang Chang.

"Can you tell me why?"

"Because of Zhen Han."

"General Zhen? You, you had a holiday with him, with him? Zhen Fu was taken aback. In his impression, Geng Xiaofan, like Zhen Han, should be An Hangong's people.

"Yes! I have a bit of a holiday with Zhen Han, and I don't agree with him as a person. So, so, maybe preconceived notions are wary of you. Geng Xiaofan generously admitted.

"I see!" Zhen Fu sat up straight and solemnly saluted Geng Xiaofan, "Lord Geng, although General Zhen is my brother, the two of us have no deep relationship. I have nothing to do with him today. I can only ask Lord Geng to believe me! ”

"Hmmm! It seems that you have different opinions with Han Long and Wang Chang, what are your plans? Geng Xiaofan groaned and raised the wine bowl again.

"Although I have never served in the Governor's Mansion, I once went to the Governor of the Western Regions to preach the decree, met the soldiers and border people there, and knew the importance of border tranquility. The end of the battle is easy to open and not easy to end! Regardless of victory or defeat, it is always the common people who suffer. I don't want to fight anyone. Zhen Fu gave up.

"Lord Han and Lord Wang seem to have a more far-reaching vision, they may be more interested in the interests of the Han, so it is a little difficult for Wuzhu to stay alone. had already persuaded Shan Yu to take Xu Bu back to Chang'an, and they were also considered to be in a bad situation. But your words today may frustrate their plans. ”

Zhen Fu said, paused, and looked at Geng Xiaofan's eyes, "I think, I think, can you also take a step back and let Xu Budang lower his head, even if it is to write a statement of feelings and admit his mistake." In this way, the situation may be de-escalated. ”

"Is this the opinion of Han and Wang?" Geng Xiaofan thought in his heart and asked quietly.

"It's not! But I'm sure I'm going to convince them. ”

Geng Xiaofan picked up the wine bowl, this time he didn't drink heavily, but took a sip.

"I don't care what to do with Gu Ju and Tang Dou. But their people are not guilty, and let them be sent to their origins. I can ask Subu to write a statement of apology, and I can ask Subu Juji to personally present it to Weiyang. Geng Xiaofan said that this kind of result is acceptable to him and he is willing to see.

"Really? Can Su Bu Juji enter Beijing for her husband? Zhen Fu's face was happy.

"I won't let King Han take Su Bu Juci, I will personally send her to Weiyang." Geng Xiaofan was afraid that Zhen Fu would misunderstand, so he added.

"Then, can I give a copy of the Chen Qing table to the two adults of King Han?"

"Yes!"

"Then I'll go back and discuss with the two adults!" Zhen Fu rushed and prepared to get up. Geng Xiaofan stopped with a smile, "Don't you regret drinking such a good wine?" ”

"Haha!" Zhen Fu scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled heartily.

Subsequently, after Zhen Fu's "mediation", Han Long and Wang Chang finally accepted Geng Xiaofan's conditions.

Later, Geng Xiaofan wrote a letter of apology for Xu Budang and returned to Chang'an with Yun'er. Gu Ju and Tang Dou were also to blame, and were escorted back to Yumen Pass, where they gathered the kings of the Western Regions and beheaded them in public.

After this trip to the Huns, Geng Xiaofan had a good "impression" of Zhen Fu, and praised Jing Yan's sister and Wang Mang in front of him. Subsequently, Zhen Fu drafted four more articles of the treaty, which was deeply appreciated by Wang Mang. This is the "Four Rules of Han and Hungary" recorded in later history books: "All Chinese who died into the Xiongnu, Wusun who died to the Xiongnu, those who wore the Chinese seal to the Xiongnu in the Western Regions, and those who surrendered to the Xiongnu in Wuhuan, are not allowed to accept it!" ”

Subsequently, Wang Chang and Zhen Fu sent envoys to the Xiongnu again, and issued the "Four Regulations" in Wuzhu to stay in the single and order to be implemented.

Yun'er was personally sent to the Longevity Palace by Geng Xiaofan, she was lively and even pungent by nature, but this seemed to remind the Queen Mother of her when she was a child and loved her very much.

Yun'er served the Queen Mother in the Longevity Palace for three years, learned the Han culture, and after returning to the Xiongnu, she helped Su Budang a lot, and was handy in internal and foreign affairs. Under her promotion, Luan Tixian also made many envoys to Chang'an. Later, he was canonized by Wang Mang as "filial piety". After the death of Wuzhuliu, with the support of Su Budang and his wife, Luan Tixian officially succeeded to the throne, that is, "Wulei Shan Yu".

These are the afterwords.

Wang Jingyan is still very satisfied with Geng Xiaofan's trip to the Huns. Before he returned to the upper valley, a banquet was set up to see him off.

At the end of the banquet, Wang Jingyan was already smoked, and she actually pulled Geng Xiaofan to the study alone.

"This is my congratulatory gift to you!" Wang Jingyan lazily half lay in front of the bookcase, casually pushing a small wooden box to Geng Xiaofan.

"Congratulations to me for what? Reward me for my meritorious service to the Huns this time? Geng Xiaofan was also a little dazed, and opened it casually.

When he saw it, he was dumbfounded, and the sense of alcohol was immediately gone!

"Congratulations on your grandson! Originally, I was going to let you do this in two years, but now I can't wait. Moreover, you should have no chores to do next, so let's do it in advance. Wang Jingyan grinned, looking at Geng Xiaofan's surprise.

"What are you doing here?" Geng Xiaofan's hands trembled a little.
