"This brother, I can't read, you read it, what is written on it?" A farmer said.

A man who looked like a scholar said, "It's a murder notice from the government." ”

"Who did you kill?" Someone asked.

"It's a gang of grave robbers." The scholar said.

"It's really lacking in morality, I don't do anything serious, I go to dig people's ancestral graves, it's really not human." Someone scolded.

"These people deserve to be killed." Someone chimed in.

The laws of the Tang Dynasty were very severe on the punishment of tomb robbers, and once confirmed, tomb robbers were basically sentenced to death.

"I've heard that this group of tomb robbers is not digging the ancestral grave of ordinary people, but the tomb of a great official of the Han Dynasty, and a lot of treasures have been dug up from it." Said a well-informed source.

"What treasure?" Someone asked curiously.

"yes, what kind of treasure?" Everyone was interested in this.

The well-informed person said, "Apart from the gold and silver vessels, the most valuable is a statue of a blue wolf, carved from colored crystal. ”

"What, colored crystals? Haven't heard of it? Someone asked.

The well-informed person said proudly: "So it's precious." ”

"Please go on." Someone urged.

"The statue of the blue wolf, which is said to be an artifact on the grassland, was taken from the Huns by Hou Huo, the champion of the Han Dynasty. Since this wolf king was taken away, the Xiongnu gradually declined. "The well-informed person said,

"I've heard about it, too." Someone said.

"That's right, where did the Huns go later?" Someone asked.

The scholar said: "After the Huns declined, some of them went to the extreme west, some of them became Xianbei people, and some of them stayed in the steppe, which is now the Turkic people. ”

"It turns out that the ancestors of the Turks are the Huns." Someone said.

At this time, a man who looked like a teacher said: "It is said that the ancestor of the Turks, Ashina, was also a Hun who lived in the West Sea, and was exterminated at that time, leaving only a ten-year-old boy, and his hands and feet were cut off.

When a wolf saw that he was pitiful, he fed him every day with meat in his mouth, and later he gave birth to a child with the wolf, and the child took a wife, and the race continued, known as the Turks.

It can also be said that the blue wolf is the ancestor of the Turks, so their tooth gate is built with a wolf's head. The wolf is their totem. ”

"Isn't the statue of the blue wolf stolen by someone very important to the Turkic people of the steppe?" Someone said.

"yes." Someone said.

"Was that wolf king confiscated by the government?" Someone asked.

"No, I heard that a tomb robber ran away and was taken away by him." Said a well-informed source.

……

Soon after, the drums sounded, the gates of the West Market opened, and a group of soldiers escorted several prisoners to the execution ground, and the officials of the Ministry of Punishment announced that the crime was tomb robbery, and then killed two of them, and the rest were brought back.

Xishi is a news distribution center, which is equivalent to today's network platform in Datang. Soon after, a piece of news spread throughout the city of Chang'an - the Huns during the Han Dynasty - and now the national treasures and totems of the Turkic people have been stolen from the tombs of the Han Dynasty and their whereabouts are unknown!

On the streets of Chang'an, in the alleys, many children are playing games, and they are jumping and singing children's songs. They sang, "The wolf eats the sheep and the sheep are afraid, but the king is above and the people are below." Go out of the south gate and enter the north gate, and all the people of the world will be obedient. ”

The things on the grassland are not interesting to the Han people in general, but the grassland people pay attention.

The Xueyantuo people and the Turks can be said to be the same ancestor, both are Xiongnu.

Xue Yantuo was originally also one of the Tiele of the Xiongnu, which first lived with the Xue people, and later became a family, called Xue Yantuo. The official system and customs are roughly the same as those of the Turks.

Since it is the same ancestor, the national treasure of the Turkic people is naturally also the national treasure of Xue Yantuo.

The news about the wolf king spread vigorously, involving Xue Yantuo's ancestors, and it was difficult for Xue Yantuo people to think about it.

Honglu Temple Guest House.

Bo Tie said: "Khan, the minister just heard a news that the wolf totem, a national treasure taken away by the Han Dynasty by our ancestors of the Huns, was stolen from a tomb in the Han Dynasty by tomb thieves not long ago.

It is said that this wolf king is an extraordinary horse, carved from natural colored crystal, and is a priceless treasure. ”

"Reliable information?" Yi Nan asked nervously.

This news is just too important.

After the decline of the Xiongnu, they split into many branches, and there were dozens of tribes such as Turkic, Tiele, and Xue Yantuo in the steppe alone. These tribes all want to unify the steppe, but none of them have enough appeal.

The wolf totem owned by the ancestors is of great significance to all the grassland tribes, and whoever has the wolf totem represents the orthodoxy of his tribe.

Yi Nan has always had the ambition to unify the grassland, and such a sacred object is of great significance to him.

Although it is said that this artifact is a national treasure of the Turks, it is even more important. Xue Yantuo annexed many tribes of the Former Tribe, and most of them were unconvinced. With this artifact, are you still afraid that they will not return to their hearts?

No wonder he's so nervous.

"Reliable. Today in the West City of Chang'an, he killed the tomb robbers, who had seen it with their own eyes. The blog post said.

"What? Kill people. Isn't this news broken? Yi Nan said disappointedly.

"No, just killed two of them, and the others were tied up as companions, probably to scare them and force them to ask about the whereabouts of the wolf king." The blog post said.

"Oh, it's okay." Yi Nan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, it's not good, this wolf king must not fall into the hands of Li Shimin, once he masters the wolf king, he can command the other tribes on the grassland, and Xue Yantuo will be in danger." Yi Nan became nervous again.

Bo Tie was also nervous and said, "Khan, what should I do about this?" ”

Yi Nan didn't have an idea for a while, he stood up and paced, thought about it and said, "Now there are a few questions:

First, whether the matter of this wolf king is true or false, we must find out.

Second, if the wolf king is real, he must find out his whereabouts. Let's see if it falls into the hands of Li Shimin.

Third, if it does not fall into the hands of Li Shimin, we must track down his whereabouts, and we must keep the wolf king in our hands. ”

Bo Tie asked, "Khan, what to do, please show me." ”

Yi Nan said: "The first question, about the truth of the wolf king, you go to visit that Li Zhenren and listen to what he has to say." When you say it, try not to reveal our intentions.

The second question, as to whether the wolf king fell into the hands of Li Shimin, I naturally have a way to know. ”

"Yes, Khan, the ministers obey." The blog post said.

Soon after, Li Zhai.

Li Chunfeng specially did not go to Qin Tianjian, stayed at home to play with the children, he was waiting for someone.

Two groups of people came in a row, and although he received a lot of gifts, he was still unhappy in his heart, because the guest he was waiting for had not yet appeared.

After dinner, the guest he was waiting for finally arrived.

"Master, a group of grassland merchants ask to see, can you see it?" Mrs. Li asked. I want to chat with more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
