After a moment, King Qianli returned to his throne, lifted his chin and began to ponder.

In front of him, a shabby-clad young man stood silently.

"Is there anything else the king has to ask?" The King of Thousand Miles pondered for a long time and did not speak, and the young man was probably concerned about his reward, so he reminded him loudly.

Gu Lu stood up, a trace of fiery battle intent flashed in his eyes, "Since you know where the Han envoys came from and where they are going, you must also know which way they are going, so you take this king forward!" ”

The young man was shocked, hurriedly waved his hand, and said in a panic: "Xiaomin just came to report a letter to ask for a reward, and has no other plans...... If I lead the king to ambush the Han envoy, Xiaomin's life will not be guaranteed! Please also ask the king to let the people go back for the sake of the little people who have worked tirelessly to report the news! ”

Gu Lu Du laughed twice and said, "Since you have the courage to come to me to Gaomi to seek wealth, why don't you have the courage to take this king to find that Han envoy?" Could it be that you deliberately deceived this king? ”

"How is that possible?" The young man hurriedly said, "Didn't the king confirm the appearance of Princess Yixue that Xiaomin said?" ”

"Humph!" Gu Ludu sneered, "In that case, why don't you want to take this king with you?" Don't you want money? When you bring this king to find this Han envoy, this king will promise you a lifetime of wealth and wealth, and Ze quilt children and grandchildren! ”

"But if the little people go with the king, I'm afraid that my life will not be guaranteed!" The young man had a crying look on his face.

"If you don't go, your life will be gone now!" Gulu stopped talking to the young man anymore, and walked outside the big tent, "Less nonsense, go with this king!" ”

The young man watched Guludu walk in front of him, and when Guludu passed by him, the panic and anxiety on the young man's face were replaced by resentment, and there seemed to be a hint of pride in the middle.

A pair of eyes even showed a look like they were going to eat all the bones, and they were fleeting.

The murderous aura in the young man's eyes just passed, and Gu Ludu suddenly turned around and stared at the young man's eyes for a while.

"Big ...... King! The young man immediately became frightened again.

Gulu didn't see what he wanted to see, and he didn't say anything, but turned around and walked out of the big tent.

"Order, the army assembles!"

...........................................................................

Guludu gathered a team of 1,000 men, and escorted the young man, and galloped out of the big tent and headed east.

On the way, Gu Lu did not forget to do ideological work for the young man with a depressed face: "Lead the way well, as long as you can let this king intercept this Han envoy halfway, I promise to let you go back immediately, and ensure that you are rich!" This king is true to his word, everyone knows it, and he will not embarrass you as a small commoner! ”

"Yes...... Thank you, King! The young man's spirits were a little more uplifted, "I ran out while they were resting last night, and ran for a whole day and a night to reach Mud City. Calculate the footsteps, at this time, about forty miles to the east, you will probably be able to meet the team of the Han envoy! ”

Gu Ludu nodded, and looked at the young man with some appreciation, "Your kid really has perseverance for the sake of wealth, and he actually ran in front of the Han envoy to come here." ”

"There is not much else in Loulan, it is more horses, Xiaomin ran not far last night and stole a good horse, so that he could come in advance." The young man smiled, as if smugly.

"Clever enough, good!" Gu Ludu said, "This time the matter is over, you will follow this king in the future, and this king will promise you a high-ranking official!" ”

"Thank you, King!" The young man was so pleasantly surprised that he almost fell off his horse.

"Haha......" Gulu burst out laughing.

And at this time, in the palace of the Mud City.

"The Hun battalion sent a thousand-man team to the east?" After hearing the news, King Loulan immediately became confused, "Isn't it that they have discovered the whereabouts of the Han envoy and are ready to go to intercept and kill?" ”

"It is reported that this thousand-man team is personally led by Gu Ludu, and his costume is very conspicuous, so it is not difficult to confirm." Said the man below.

"In this way, the news that the Han envoy is coming must have leaked out!" King Loulan was suddenly deflated and collapsed in his seat.

"What should I do now, please show the king."

King Loulan glanced out the window, was silent for a while, and then said: "It's not early, if the Hun cavalry intercepts and kills the Han envoys, it won't be difficult for them to destroy the corpses!" If this is the case, Loulan will definitely be at odds with the Han - we have to stop the Huns from doing so! ”

After thinking about it, King Loulan ordered: "Let the general lead people to chase after you, and you must not let these Huns succeed!" ”

"Yes...... However, there are still 4,000 Xiongnu troops outside the city, and if the general takes the army out of the city, will it cause any accidents? The subordinate said worriedly.

"I can't care about it so much! If the Han envoy was killed by the Huns here in this king's place, the Han would definitely not give up! The leader of those Han envoys is the left general of the Han Dynasty, and he is an important minister of the Han Dynasty, so he must not be allowed to make any mistakes! ”

"As for the Hun army outside the city...... When it comes to this, I'm not afraid to make it clear to them. If you go and tell them, you will say that the king's army is going out of the city to meet the Han envoys, not to fight against them! ”

"Obey orders!" The subordinate promised.

"Wait!" King Loulan stopped his courtier, paused, and advised: "Tell the general, no matter what, try not to clash with the Xiongnu army...... If the bones are to be unfavorable to the Han envoys, they must not clash with them head-on. You have to make it clear to the general that he is there to save people, not to kill people, as long as he can save people, and at the same time promise not to do anything with the Huns...... No matter how big the price is! Do you understand? ”

“...... Got it! The subordinate felt a pang of sorrow and departed gloomily.

After half a ring, after seeing a large group of cavalry rushing out of the mud city to the east, the Hun military camp outside the mud city suddenly exploded.

"General, what are we going to do? The Loulan army really chased the king to the east! The generals in the barracks immediately surrounded the deputy general of Guludu and asked him to make up his mind, "What if the people of Loulan are unfavorable to the king?" ”

"Yes, General, let's go after it!"

"The king can't make a mistake!"

“......”

"Don't make any noise!" The adjutant general was so dizzy that everyone had to shout, and then said in annoyance: "When the king left, he instructed that the army must not move recklessly, and beware of any accidents!" Now that the king has just left, how can I easily move? Besides, didn't the Loulan officials already say that they were going to pick up the Han envoys! ”

"The problem lies with this group of Han envoys! If the Loulan people take the Han envoys here, they have a backer, maybe they will have to go to war with us! Now the king led the people out of the camp, and as soon as the front foot left, they followed out with the back foot, so it can be seen that these people have no good intentions, and they must be the ones who want to take the king...... Ask the Han envoy for credit! What if the king falls into the hands of these Loulan people? We've been besieging Mud City for so long, they must have been waiting for an opportunity to drive us away, and now the king has only brought a team of 1,000 people, in case of any accidents, they can't prevent it! ”

"What I'm saying is that now we are in the territory of the Loulan people, who knows what the hell the Loulan people are messing with?"

"If the king is robbed, I will not be able to escape the blame!"

"It's getting dark now, so I have to guard against it!"

“......”

"Alright, stop arguing!" The adjutant general was extremely contradictory, thought for a while, and asked, "How many people have the Loulan people dispatched?" ”

"Look like that, there are no less than a thousand people!" There is humanity.

"This is just the people on the surface, who knows if they have arranged manpower in secret?" Someone else added.

"Good...... In that case, for the sake of safety, then send another team of 1,000 people out to meet the king, just in case! The adjutant said.

"A thousand-man team? That's too little, right? If the Loulan people really have any conspiracy, how can a thousand people deal with it? "Someone immediately expressed a different opinion.

"The army is gone, who will watch the mud city?" The adjutant general said coldly, "Who will guard the big battalion?" If the Loulan people take the opportunity to attack the camp, what should we do? ”

“....... Then send another 500 men. ”

The palace of the mud city.

"What? The Hun battalion sent another cavalry? King Loulan was amazed.

"Yes...... The number of people is also more than a thousand! Xia Chen said.

King Loulan sighed and said bitterly: "The Huns are forcing this king to a dead end!" ”

"......." the minister, "How should we deal with it, and ask the king to make a decision quickly." ”

"How to deal with it, how to deal with it?" King Loulan was mad, "How do you let this king deal with it?" The Huns did whatever they wanted in the land of this king, and this king still wanted to destroy them! But can this king? No! Not only can't, but this king has to be a man with his tail between his legs! Just like now, the Xiongnu army is besieging the city, and the king sends a person out to greet the king's guests, and he still has to take into account what the Huns think everywhere, for fear of annoying the Huns! You say, what else can this king do? What can I do? ”

The king was angry...... "The subordinates hurriedly bowed down in fear.

King Loulan took a deep breath and flicked his sleeves boringly, "Get up, it's none of your business." ”

After thinking about it, King Loulan said: "Send someone to the Xiongnu military camp and tell the Huns that this king is going to send envoys to meet the Han envoys, and if they are not at ease, let them send some people to follow...... In this way, these Huns should be relieved, right? ”

"The king is wise!"
