Chapter 426 One Han skin is taken, and the Hun skin is hung
When Qin Cheng and Dou Fei were talking, King Loulan had already happily accepted the gift from Zhao Xin.
No matter what King Loulan thinks in his heart now, he should accept the gift. You don't want people to send you anything, isn't this a slap in the face? After seeing the friendly attitude of the Huns today, King Loulan would definitely not embarrass Zhao Xin at this time. If King Loulan's position on the Han Dynasty can remain firm in his heart, it is already very rare.
This has nothing to do with King Loulan's personal character, but Loulan, as a weak man, has to survive under the fighting methods of two strong people, which is not easy in itself. The king of Loulan could not be tough with the Han and the Xiongnu, and even did not dare to easily fall to any country, and the best was during the roundabout. In this way, you can protect yourself, and maybe you can reap a lot of benefits, just like now.
King Loulan, who received the gift, was in a much better mood, he wanted to stop here today, and he would discuss the future problems with Zhao Xin slowly, after all, maneuvering before the Han and the Huns was a technical job, which required a lot of energy and enough strategy.
But Zhao Xin, who lost his smile and gave something, would not let go of King Loulan easily, at least he would not allow him to protect himself wisely and be a wall grass and duplicity between the Han and the Xiongnu.
He said: "King Loulan, Yi Zhi Da Dan Yu has made it very clear in his letter of state, and he hopes to sign a mutual alliance with Loulan. I wonder what King Loulan thinks of this? Is Loulan willing to form an alliance with the Great Huns and get along amicably from now on? ”
"Loulan naturally wants to have friendly relations with the Huns!" King Loulan is very sure of what he said, but he will not just agree to the alliance with the Xiongnu, which is the same reason as he did not immediately agree to form an alliance with the Han Dynasty, "As for the alliance, because the stakes are very high, and many details are involved, this king still has to discuss with the hundred officials." Your envoy can rest assured that he will play in the mud city for a few days, and then inform the envoy when the king and the hundred officials have discussed the results, so good? ”
"King Loulan's words are wrong." Zhao Xin seemed to have expected that King Loulan would be so prevaricating, and there was no compromise in his words, "The Great Xiongnu sincerely formed an alliance with Loulan, which is a good thing for the subjects of both countries, why does King Loulan still hesitate?" With all due respect, King Loulan is worried that the Han people will be unfavorable to Loulan? ”
When Zhao Xin said this, it was not surprising that it caused a thousand waves in the hall, and the hundred officials began to talk about it again, nothing more than saying that Loulan was not afraid of anyone, Zhao Xin's words were too rude and other useless nonsense.
"Although my Loulan is small, it is also a country, how can I act because of others......" King Loulan retorted.
However, before King Loulan finished speaking, Zhao Xin had already taken the lead in speaking, "The Great Huns respect Loulan!" However, some people did not respect Loulan, but instead used some conspiracies and tricks to design the Loulan army and the Hun cavalry to fight, causing the two countries to almost become enemy countries! King Loulan hasn't discovered this fact yet, has he? Let such a person stay in the mud city, King Loulan is worried! In the long run, Loulan will definitely let these ill-intentioned people disrupt the national body, and will put the people of Loulan in dire straits! ”
After saying that, Zhao Xin suddenly turned his head, looked at Qin Cheng who was standing in the queue of hundreds of officials in Loulan, and said loudly: "General Qin, what this king said is right, right?" ”
.........................................................................
Qin Cheng and Dou Fei Yi Xue'er were originally standing at the front of the queue of hundreds of officials in Loulan, although they were not deliberately arranged to hide their figures, but under normal circumstances, when the envoys talked to the king, the envoys were concentrated, and they would not look around at all, so unless Qin Cheng and others took the initiative to come out, the envoys usually couldn't notice Qin Cheng and the others.
Zhao Xin was able to find out Qin Cheng's location at a glance, either because he had long expected that Qin Cheng and the others would be in the palace, or because his eyesight was extraordinary.
Hearing Zhao Xin's words, everyone understood that Zhao Xin was accusing Qin Cheng of using a scheme to cause a war between the Loulan army and the Hun cavalry. This is undoubtedly a very serious and vicious accusation, if Zhao Xin's evidence is sufficient enough, Qin Cheng and the others will definitely not end well.
Zhao Xin took the lead in finding fault with himself, of course Qin Cheng had no reason to avoid it, he immediately smiled slightly, walked a few steps forward, and looked at Zhao Xin, "General Zhao still remembers Qin, it's really rare." Three years ago, you rebelled against the Han and surrendered to the Xiongnu, and I heard that you became a king in the Xiongnu. This is really water flowing to a low place, and people are going to a high place, and General Zhao's promotion speed is staggering. Presumably, after arriving at the Xiongnu, General Zhao's life was very nourishing, right? I wonder if General Zhao has dreamed of killing the enemy side by side with the soldiers of the Han army in the past years? ”
Qin Cheng avoided the truth and decided to expose Zhao Xin's shortcomings first, so that the king of Loulan and the hundred officials of Loulan did not believe in his personality. In this way, Qin Cheng will be much more proactive.
"General Bulao remembers, Zhao has lived well in the desert over the years, at least much better than in the Central Plains." Zhao Xin said in a cold voice, "The general is so provoking the topic, is he afraid of facing Zhao's question?" ”
"What would Ben be afraid of?" Qin Cheng said, "General Zhao just said that it was the general who designed the Loulan army, which caused Loulan and the Xiongnu to almost go to a full-scale war. It's really ridiculous and generous to say this. There is no need to argue, and the Loulan soldiers, who have experienced the events of the day, explained the situation of the day to the king of Loulan. ”
Although General Zhao left the Han military camp and no longer worked for the Han army, General Zhao's penchant for playing right and wrong has not changed. It seems that no matter how gorgeous the skin of a person is, the bad customs in his bones cannot be changed. However, when he was in the Han army before, General Zhao just played right and wrong, although his colleagues disdained your behavior, but they would not care about you for the sake of being a person at the same time. But now that you have arrived at the Xiongnu and Loulan, you have to remember that your words and deeds represent the master behind you. Slandering the ministers of other countries at will is no longer a matter of personality, but ...... Guilty! ”
After Qin Cheng's words were finished, Zhao Xin's face was already pale.
Zhao Xin naturally has no habit of telling right and wrong, and no colleague knows the fact that he has this habit. Qin Cheng's words were more true than true, and at the same time, he also made Zhao Xin stink in front of King Loulan and Loulan officials. Just ask a person with bad conduct, how could the king of Loulan and the hundred officials of Loulan believe him?
"Qin Cheng, ...... you" Zhao Xin pointed at Qin Cheng and his whole body trembled slightly, he pointed at Qin Cheng and was speechless for a while. On the way back, he imagined countless possible reactions of Qin Cheng, and he already had a draft in his mind about how to deal with Qin Cheng's reaction. But he didn't expect that Qin Cheng would directly talk to him, which made Zhao Xin lose his mind, "Nonsense, it's just nonsense!" When did this king like to tell right and wrong? You don't want to ruin my character! ”
Qin Cheng put on a disdainful look, "I didn't plan that you would admit it. However, you once defected in battle, causing General Li Guang, who was kind to you, to fall into a deep predicament, and even you joined forces with the Xiongnu to fight against him, almost causing General Li to lose his life, which is an indisputable fact! Can you still quibble? ”
"When did Li Guang become kind to me?" Zhao Xin said unevenly.
Qin Cheng laughed angrily, "You guy, your conscience is really for dogs!" If you don't recognize me as a general, forget it, you don't even recognize General Li?! Can you be more shameless? ”
"......" Zhao Xin's face flushed, "You are talking nonsense!" As he spoke, he said to King Loulan: "King Loulan, you have to listen to Qin Cheng's nonsense, he ...... He's talking nonsense! ”
Zhao Xin originally wanted to change his image, but when he said this, he found that everyone was looking at him with a look of doubt and hatred.
"......" Zhao Xin couldn't help but feel cold when he saw the appearance of King Loulan and Loulan Baiguan.
Qin Cheng was silent on the surface, but he was already smiling in his heart.
His personal attack on Zhao Xin not only relieved Zhao Xin's accusation that he had framed the Loulan army, but even caused Zhao Xin himself to fall into a crisis of trust.
Seeing everyone's gaze at Zhao Xin, Qin Cheng knew that he had taken the initiative today. Next, as long as you take it step by step, you won't have to worry about not being able to control the situation, and even completely suppress Zhao Xin.
