Volume 21 Han Ji 13 (3)
In the winter and October of the fourth year, the emperor traveled to Xingyong. Ancestral hall five 畤. The road back to China was opened, and then the north went out of Xiaoguan. After Dulu Mingze, from the generation of the land to the east of the river. Spring and March, the soil behind the shrine. Pardon Fenyin, Xia Yang, and Zhongdu prisoners below the capital penalty.
Summer, great drought.
The Xiongnu defended themselves, and Huo Qu rarely came to Koubian since he came out of the desert in the north. He traveled to the north to recuperate his horses, practiced riding and archery, and sent envoys to the Han Dynasty many times. Good words, ask for harmony. The Han sent Wang Wu, a native of the Northland, to spy on the Xiongnu. Wang Wu obeyed the customs of the Xiongnu and went to enter his vault, and Shan Yu liked it very much, and promised to send the prince into the Han Dynasty for him as a hostage. Han envoy Yang Xin sent an envoy to the Xiongnu, Yang Xin refused to follow its customs, Shan Yu said: "I have made an appointment with the previous envoy, if the Han Dynasty sends the princess to bring silk and food to make peace so that the Xiongnu will no longer disturb the border, but now it is against the agreement, and it is impossible to want my prince as a hostage." ”
Yang Xin returned, and Han sent Wang Wu to go. And Shan Yu used sweet words to confuse Wang Wu. I want to deceive the big man with more money. Liared Wang Wu said: "I want to enter the Han Dynasty to see the Son of Heaven and worship him as a brother in person." Wang Wu returned to the Han Dynasty, and the Han built a mansion for the Xiongnu in Chang'an.
The Xiongnu said: "If the Han does not send his valuable people to come as an envoy, I will not talk to him sincerely." "The Xiongnu sent his nobles to the Han as an envoy, and when he was sick, the Han tried his best to cure him, but he died of illness. The Han envoy Lu Chongguo wore 2,000 stone seals, and the funeral was worth thousands of gold because of his funeral. And told the Xiongnu that Lu Chongguo was the nobleman of the Han Dynasty. The Xiongnu decided that it was the Han who killed his nobles, and they actually detained Lu Chongguo as a hostage and did not return to the Han. Then Wang Wu was unmoved, and only used empty words to stabilize Wang Wu. But he has no intention of entering Han again. Since the Han Dynasty was repatriated, the crown prince often sent strange soldiers to harass the Han border. The emperor then worshiped Guo Chang as the general of Bahu, and cooperated with the Hou Tun army of Xunye to prepare Hu Kou to the east of Shuofang.
In the winter of the fifth year, the emperor went to the south to patrol and hunt, as for the Tang Dynasty. In Jiuzhi Mountain, Yu Shun is sacrificed. Then climb Tianzhu Mountain. Since Xunyang took a boat to float the river, he personally held a bow and shot the river Jiao. Thousands of miles, from Zongyang out, then north to Langya seaside, where it passes, all have to pay homage to its famous mountains and rivers, in the spring and March of the following year, also to Mount Tai, increase the seal. Jiazi began in the Ming Hall to worship God and was shared by the ancestors. Because of the court, the princes, the kings, the princes.
In the summer and April, the amnesty was granted to the world, but fortunately, the county did not need to pay this year's rent.
Changping Liehou Wei Qingxue. The emperor erected a mausoleum for him, like the shape of Lushan.
The emperor both swept Hu Yue and opened up the land to reject, so he set up the border Shuofang, Jiaolu two states, and Yiyou and Yanxu, Qingyang, Jingyu, Yiliang and other states, a total of thirteen states, each state has a history of thorns. The emperor felt that the able ministers and civil and military officials in the past had died of old age and death, and there was a shortage of talents, so he issued an edict saying: "Since ancient times, there have been extraordinary merits, and extraordinary people must be treated." A good horse can only gallop for thousands of miles, and a talented man can only achieve great things if he has a different insight from the ordinary. Therefore, the horse that drives the horse, the extraordinary man, can only be harnessed by those who appreciate it. He ordered the prefecture and county to inspect the officials and people, and found that there were Mao talents and other people who could be sent to the country, and reported it quickly. ”
In the winter of the sixth year, the emperor returned to China. In the spring of the following year, Shoushan Palace was built. In March, Xingxing Hedong. After the ancestral hall, pardon the prisoners of Fenyin for the following crimes,
Han both through the southwest Yi, open five counties, respectively, Qianwei County, Yuewang County. Shenli County, Wenshan County, Yizhou County. It is hoped that by connecting these places, we will be able to go straight to Daxia. Every year, more than a dozen generations of envoys are sent to Bactria through these newly purchased counties. But often the people here would rob and kill these envoys near Kunming and swallow their belongings. So the Son of Heaven forgave the sins of the outlaws in Jingshi and ordered them to join the army. The Hu general Guo Changwei was sent to quell the rebellion and beheaded hundreds of thousands. Later, he sent an envoy there, but in the end he could not get through. I had to give up.
In autumn, there was a great drought and a plague of locusts.
The envoy of Wusun saw the vastness of the Han Dynasty and returned to his country. His country attached more importance to exchanges with the Han Dynasty. In addition, Dawan next to him, the Yue clan and other countries all serve Han. When the Xiongnu heard that Wusun was in communication with the Han envoy, they were angry and were about to attack him. Wusun was frightened and sent an envoy saying that he would marry the Han princess and marry the Son of Heaven as Kundi. The Son of Heaven agreed after discussing with the ministers. Wusun hired the Han princess with a thousand horses. Han took Xijun, the daughter of Liu Jian, the king of Jiangdu, as the princess, and went to Wusun and kissed, and gave it very richly. Kunmo, the king of Wusun, took her as his right wife. The Xiongnu also sent a daughter to Kun Mo as his wife, and Kun Mo thought it was Mrs. Zuo.
The princess lived in the autonomous palace, and when she was young, she repeatedly met with Kun Mo, drinking and eating. Kunmo was old and couldn't speak, and the princess was sad and homesick. When the Son of Heaven heard the news, he felt pity and sent messengers from time to time to present the tent brocade and ask questions.
Kun Mo thought he was old and wanted his grandson Cen to marry the princess. The princess didn't listen, and reported the situation to the Son of Heaven, who reported that Hu Kou could be destroyed with Wusun from his national customs. Cen married the princess. Kun Mo died, and Cen married and became Kun Mi.
At that time, the Han envoy went west over the green ridge to rest in peace. Rest in peace sent envoys to the Han Dynasty, and all the small countries around it made envoys follow the Han envoys to see the Son of Heaven. The Son of Heaven was greatly pleased. Since then, envoys from the Western Kingdom have come and gone, and it has gradually become the norm. Every time the Son of Heaven went on a hunting tour of the sea, he often took these envoys with him. Along the way, he deliberately rewarded large numbers to show that the treasury of the Han State was sufficient and rich.
Dawan left and right more grapes can be used for wine. Alfalfa, the horses of the Celestial Empire like to eat, the Han envoy picked its fruit and brought it back, and the Son of Heaven planted it next to the palace.
Although the envoys of the western kingdom came and went, they were close to the Xiongnu, and they were often afraid of the Xiongnu envoys, and they were better than the Han envoys. It was a year old, the Hun Uwei Shan died, and his son Wu Shi Lu Li, who was young, was known as Son Shan Yu. Since then, Shan Yuyi has migrated westward, and the Xiongnu have weakened.
