Chapter 107: The Royal Hunt

I don't know what the emperor thought, but the young Langguan Guo Ji left Chang'an with gifts and twenty-four envoys before the New Year's Festival.

His task was to reopen the road of communication between the Great Han Kingdom and the Huns, and by the way, he told Liu Ling that if he came to vote, he would allow the country!

Since the Han State reduced the army of Baishan and Youbeiping to pieces, the Huns who sporadically harassed the Han border also disappeared.

There was no news from the Huns, which made Liu Che very uneasy.

It was not that he was worried that the Huns would suddenly attack, but that he was not used to it, extremely unaccustomed, and it turned out that it was his highest priority to watch the Huns every day.

Now, the recital reads "The Huns fled without a trace".

Where the hell did the Huns go?

Liu Che was very curious.

Looking to the north from the "Unification Map of the Great Han Emperor" presented by Yun Lang, there seems to be an extremely vast land there, and there is also a vast North Sea, which looks like a land of abundant water and grass......

It is also necessary to send an envoy to take a look, as for what will happen to this envoy, Liu Che does not consider it.

Leave before the New Year's Festival, and wait until midsummer, Guo Ji should also go to the Beihai area......

At the last court meeting before the New Year's Festival, Liu Che decided to raise 180,000 troops to hunt in the north in the late spring of next year.

I want to use this huge military parade to deter the four large barbarians of the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Sushen.

Since the Xiongnu fled from Danhan Mountain, Xianbei and Sushen are two alien races that are ready to move, Xianbei people are very interested in the pastures and farmland left by the Huns, but the Sushen tribe has begun to move eastward, each tribe seems to have its own pursuits, but they seem to have forgotten the existence of the Han Empire.

The Wuhuan people are actually very obedient, and began to become the emperor's ginseng slave five years ago, and over the years have contributed countless ginseng, furs, and priceless pearls from the East China Sea.

Wuhuan people are not good at swimming, their way of pearl diving is very peculiar, first raise a kind of harrier eagle called Haidongqing, and then let these harrier eagles to catch swans, the northern swans like to eat mussel meat the most, when eating meat, they often eat together with pearls, and finally store them in the sac.

After Hai Dongqing catches the swan, the hunter will dive pearls from the swan's sac, if you are lucky, you may have a harvest, if you are unlucky, you will get nothing, a hundred swans and a pearl, resulting in the price of pearls in the East China Sea.

Yun Lang's cognition of the treasure of the Northeast is still stuck in the sentence of ginseng and mink piura grass.

As for others, such as oil, it is useless to know.

There is a high probability that Guo Ji will not come back.

The dog said that Liu Ling was lonely and about to go crazy, and she didn't like the Huns, and the emperor sent the young, strong, and handsome Guo Ji to the Huns, but he still had a choice, and he didn't blindly send him to death.

Good-looking people will always receive a little preferential treatment, and Han Yan is such a person.

The only person who can ride the emperor's deputy car, surrounded by ironclad guards, and who uses the same honor guard as the Son of Heaven, is Han Yan.

He did this before, but he was met by the king of Jiangdu, thinking that the emperor was coming, so he knelt down on the side of the road to worship, but when he found out that it was Han Yan, he was humiliated in his life.

At that time, the Queen Mother had not passed away, and the King of Jiangdu cried to the Queen Mother, who was furious and wanted to kill Han Yan, but was finally stopped by the emperor.

Then, Han Yan seemed to disappear from everyone's sight.

New Year's Day Hunting, this is the second time Yun Lang has seen Han Yan.

The last time I saw Han Yan was in Honglu Temple, at that time, Han Yan was gentle and charming like a woman, Yun Lang was fine except for not having physical contact with him.

Now, when this guy came out in the emperor's deputy car, he didn't mean to get out of the car in the face of Cao Xiang, Yun Lang, Huo Quai, Li Kang and a large group of civil and military ministers.

After the baffles on all sides of the auxiliary car were removed, Han Yan's appearance was exposed in front of everyone's eyes, Cao Xiang kept sneering, Huo Quzhi frowned, and Yun Lang looked at Han Yan like a dead person.

Tingwei Zhao Yu left the crowd, pointed at Han Yan and asked, "Do you know the etiquette?" Can you know "The Law of the Dynasty"? ”

Han Yan said lightly: "Your Majesty sent a certain person as the forerunner, don't dare to disobey!" ”

Zhao Yu's expression changed several times, and finally said hatefully: "Wait for Your Majesty to arrive." ”

Han Yan sneered and laughed, and many people heard it, which made it difficult for Zhao Yu to put the knife into the sheath, but he didn't have an immediate seizure, returned to his carriage, hung down the curtain, and didn't know what he was doing.

Cao Xiang grabbed the reins of the war horse and turned back to Yun Lang and said, "Women are colorful, is this kind of thing useful to men?" ”

Yun Lang smiled: "It should be the same." ”

Cao Xiang shook his head and said, "It's different, this guy has been rampant in the palace for twenty years, and I heard that the women in Yongxiang are at his disposal." ”

Huo Quzhi stroked the handle of the golden knife and looked at Han Yan's neck, as if he was wondering where to start the knife.

Yun Lang glanced at Prime Minister Li Cai and found that the carriage was as quiet as no one, so he said to Huo Quai: "The prime minister didn't speak, and if we make a move, we will become arrogant, and when the time comes, both sides will not please you, and no one will help you speak if you want to get rid of the crime." ”

Huo Quzhi smiled: "This person is looking for death." ”

Li dared to say: "I can offend hundreds of civil and military officials at once, such a person can't accept it." ”

The sun rose high, the emperor's Luan drove slowly over, the ministers finished saluting, and Zhao Yu was about to speak when he left work, but he was driven away by Liu Che with a wave of his sleeves.

Then he asked Han Yan: "Have you ever had it?" ”

Han Yanjiao said with a smile: "The hunting ground has been cleared, and the drummers are already on standby, as long as Your Majesty goes to the hunting platform, he will immediately drive the beast out of the mountain." ”

Liu Che nodded with satisfaction, got off Luan and drove onto the hunting platform that had been set up.

This is a three-zhang high earthen platform, and there is a waist-high wooden fence on the earthen platform, and there is a wide animal road in front of the earthen platform.

The emperor's way of hunting was to stand on the hunting platform, wait for the soldiers to drive the beasts out of the mountain, let them run along the beast path, and the emperor hunted the beasts on the earthen platform with a bow and arrows, or used a crossbow, or threw a javelin.

A group of ministers gathered around the emperor, doing the same thing, and finally determined who had obtained how much prey according to the weapons marked with their lives on the slain beasts.

The generals did not have this treatment, one by one dressed in hunting clothes, riding horses to guard the bottom of the earthen platform, ready to charge the beasts at any time, and finally with the halberd and spear in their hands, the beasts were all annihilated, which was a qualified royal hunting activity.

Under Huo Quzhi's gaze, Han Yan actually didn't stand on the platform, but found a horse to ride, holding a halberd in his hand, carrying a crossbow on his back, a longbow on the horse's buttocks, a meteor hammer wrapped around his waist, and a long knife fixed on the front blade of the war horse.

Cao Xiang saw Huo Quai's illness and looked at Han Yan with a mouthful of white teeth, and hurriedly dragged Huo Quai's war horse to the left, far away from Han Yan.

Li Dare laughed and said: "That kind of guy can be pinched to death with one hand!" ”

Cao Xiang said angrily: "What do you know, this guy is the grandson of Han Wangxin (not the military god Han Xin), and the ancestor Han Wangxin is also a strong general, but he is only looked down upon by the Huns."

Think about it, if we have an affair with the Huns, what will happen to the brothers know what the end will be, this guy has a traitor ancestor, and he is actually in the mix, and he can't do it without any ability. ”

Huo Quzhi looked at Han Yan holding a thick halberd like holding a rush grass, and said to Li Dang: "Ah Kang, you can't kill him with one hand." ”

Yun Lang laughed and said, "Actually, Han Yan is a big deal about our brother, he didn't hurt us, and we don't have a relationship with him."

Let's enjoy the hunt today, and don't think about anything else.

I've prepared all kinds of spices and brought the stove today, so I'm waiting for a delicious meal.

Go to the sick, Ah Kang, bear paws, pig tenderloin and pork ribs, I'll leave it to you, and I'll go with Ah Xiang to get yellow sheep, elk, and if there are pheasants, we will also get them. ”

Cao Xiang swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "It's rare that Ah Lang is in the mood to make honey bear paws for the big guy to eat, you must get a bear, it's best to have two heads, the back palm is not delicious!" ”
