Su Ren did not rush back to Chang'an immediately according to the emperor's holy decree, even if the emperor was ready to use troops against the Xiongnu, it would not be able to do it in a while. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info the army needs to be assembled, the grain and grass need to be prepared, and the messenger carriage that transports the grain needs to be prepared. Even if Su Ren hurriedly returned to Chang'an, don't think about immediately leading troops into the hinterland of the Xiongnu, besides, he Su Ren can't help with these things, Cui Jiuming is now an imperial businessman, and everything is easy to do with him.

Therefore, Su Ren continued to stay in Yumen and wait for news. There were two pieces of news he was waiting for, the first was the situation of Jin Riyan with the Hun Evil King, which was related to the safety of the entire Western Regions. The second is the movement of King Hutu. Fifty percent of the materials that should be given to King Hutu have been given one after another, and King Hutu still has no intention of going east, which makes Su Ren a little worried, and now he is also anxious. Because, two days ago, another message was sent from Chang'an, saying that one of the conditions attached to Yu Shan by the Xiongnu prince was to let Su Ren go to greet him, and only Su Ren could do this, who made Su Ren and Yu Shan friends?

After deducing from this, all the focus was on Su Ren. Su Ren didn't go to meet Yu Dan, so Yu Shan wouldn't be attached. The war on the grassland will not be over, and the war on the grassland will not end, and King Hutu will not advance eastward. King Hutu did not go east, and Su Ren did not dare to go. It's just such a wonderful thing, ring after ring, and now it just depends on where the chain is broken.

The city of Jade Gate is changing day by day, when I went out yesterday it was still a bare flat land, and today I went out again and it became a house, the speed is so fast, because this is the Jade Gate, which was built by the Han people. Therefore, he had to develop at the speed of the Han people. The news of Su Ren's imminent departure only spread in a small area, which is why Zhang Qian was so nervous. Only by building the jade gate well can we ensure that the jade gate is not lost in our own hands.

Yageri, who helped Su Ren do more than a month of work, came back, and Yageri has grown a lot of knowledge in this month, he was just a child before, but now he has become a little adult. Yageri has decided to stay in Yumen and continue to study with his teacher Zhang Qian, which makes Gesang very happy, but Hua Niang is depressed. She went out of the eunuch's house, so she didn't want her children to go back to the old path, but Gesang had already decided, and as a woman, she didn't say anything.

After Yageri came back from Su Ren, he stayed in Zhang Qian's Taishou Mansion, as if he had become a staff member. Because he had read the intelligence of the Western Regions that his parents had spent five years investigating, he had even more say in some matters than his teacher Zhang Qian.

"Teacher, the students feel that everyone should not be left in the city, although there are few people in the city, but they should not be blind!" Yageri heard Zhang Qian's command to his subordinate Hu Cao to prepare to place the displaced people from outside the city in the city, and when Hu Cao left, he gave Zhang Qian an idea: "The Red Valley City of the Wusun people is an example, ten years ago, because of the diversion of the Ili River, a large number of people turned into savages, and they flocked to the Red Valley City, the Red Valley City Lord thought that collecting these displaced people would strengthen his city, who expected that those people would suddenly turn against each other after getting help, and the Red Valley City Lord was killed, if it wasn't for the ......"

Zhang Qian looked at his students meaningfully: "What's not it?" ”

"If it weren't for the king of Wusun to send troops to suppress it, Chigu City could have become the country of Chigu, although Wusun won in the end, but Chigu City has also become a dead land, and it has been covered by wind and sand so far, and no trace can be found anymore." Yageri's eyes were firm, and he was not afraid at all: "So the students think that although our Yumen lacks a population now, not everyone needs it, and only those who are loyal to us can enter the city, so that those outside the city are also vigilant." ”

Zhang Qian smiled: "Su taught you, right?" ”

"No, no, no, it's not Mr. Su, it's the students themselves."

"Oh?" Zhang Qian stared at Yageri, who no longer dared to look at each other, and hurriedly lowered his head.

Zhang Qian said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to have such an insight with Su Ren for a month, could it be that Su Ren is really a genius in the world, and he will never be able to catch up with him as a teacher?" ”

Yageri was startled, and hurriedly saluted: "Mr. is angry, Mr. Su didn't teach the students, but just asked the students to help him record a lot of things about the Western Regions, and the students also saw it, Mr. Su ......"

Zhang Qian waved his hand: "You don't have to be so afraid, you are not angry for the teacher, I think I have two students, one travels thousands of miles, and the other reads thousands of books, Su Ren once said that if you want to know the world, you have to read thousands of books if you don't travel thousands of miles, and you are happy to be a teacher, happy!" Hurry up, you're right, in this part of the Western Regions, we Han people are still too weak, and we need some wisdom to deal with foreigners! You go and tell Tocao, do as you say! ”

Jageri was overjoyed, and ran out of the door again. Zhang Qian smiled helplessly, then his face was gloomy, and he said angrily to the empty room: "I am just two apprentices, one is denied by your six relatives, and the other is cold-blooded and ruthless by you, are they my students or your students?" ”

Su Ren turned from behind the screen with a tea bowl in his hand: "First of all, I don't teach these things, they didn't learn well, but they learned to be cold-blooded and ruthless, and it has a lot to do with you, a gentleman, don't get involved with me!" Today I have come to tell you about the king of Hugh, and I have not heard or seen the rest, and as for how your two students teach it, it is your business! ”

"What? King Hugh Tu is still unwilling to go east? ”

Su Ren nodded: "The person sent back said that King Hutu had treated him well, but he didn't say a word about the eastward expansion, as soon as he mentioned others, he would use other things to diverge it, I asked Huo Jinzheng to clean up such a rice bucket!" ”

"Hey!" Zhang Qian sighed: "King Hutu is not a stupid person, it's not that he didn't see that the battle between Yi Zhiyi and Yu Shan had already been decided, and if he didn't want to leave, he didn't give up on Yumen!" ”

Su Ren nodded: "This guy is a thief, so I'm going to teach him a lesson!" ”

Zhang Qian immediately said: "Don't come nonsense? Yumen was not yet capable of starting a war with the Xiongnu, and besides, the imperial court ......"

"Stop! I have not come today to consult with you, but to inform you. Su Ren put down the tea bowl: "You can't shut me down from the official position or anything else, I am the Marquis of Guannei who is bigger than your title, I am the general of Dangkou and the military attaché, you are too guarding, and none of us can command anyone, I have already ordered what to do yesterday, and today is to tell you that no matter what conditions King Hutu puts forward, don't agree, as for the remaining fifty percent of the materials, there is no need to raise!" ”

"You're going to break the contract?"

Su Ren snorted coldly: "It was he who broke the contract before he slaughtered the king!" Not me! ”

"What the hell are you going to do?"

Su Ren stood up and said with a smile: "You don't care about this, don't worry, it won't affect your Yumen, wait for King Hutu to send someone to inquire about the materials, you just say that it has already been shipped, I have an official letter issued by the general of the Xiongnu border army here, and you don't have to worry about whether it has been shipped to King Hutu's own royal court." ”

Looking at the dozen or so official letters thrown out by Su Ren, Zhang Qian sighed and said to Su Ren: "It's your two horse thief friends again, right?" This time, it seems that King Hugh Tu is going to be unlucky! But Ben Taishou wants to remind you that although King Hugh Tu is terrible, it is not as terrible as your two friends, and it is they who Ben Taishou should focus on guarding against in Yumen! If their names and surnames appear in my recital that day, please don't make a fuss about it. ”

Su Ren smiled: "Then I'll wait and see!" When the time comes, let's see how they take your jade gate! ”

The envoy of King Hutu arrived three days later, looking arrogant, with all kinds of big hats buttoned down, if it was changed to another Western Regions country, he would be terrified. As the Taishou of the Jade Gate, Zhang Qian has always been calm, which makes the officials under him who have just been recruited very respectful. When the envoy of King Hutu finished speaking, and the old king took out a large stack of official documents from the general of the Xiongnu border pass, the envoy of King Hutu sneered again and again.

As the envoy of King Hutu, he naturally knew what happened in the territory of the Xiongnu, and when he came, King Hutu specially explained to him, and the robbery and transportation of materials seemed to be horse thieves, but in fact they were Han people, so the envoy sneered: "Zhang Taishou, let's not play such a trick, right?" Said he didn't know those horse thieves were ......"

"Smack!" Zhang Qian slapped his palm on the table: "Please pay attention to the envoy's words, no matter who the horse thief is, this incident happened in your Xiongnu territory, and these documents are also issued by your border generals, what is the matter with the materials being seized by the horse thieves and controlling my Yumen?" If King Hutu wants to attack the Jade Gate, he will lead a large army to come, and Ben Taishou is waiting here! ”

Zaji grabbed the Hun envoy's collar and said viciously: "Yumen is my Han border county, if you want to start a war, come here, Lao Tzu wait!" Now me off! ”

The Zaji man was tall and big, and threw the messenger out of the door, and the messenger covered the big bag on his head, and ran out, not forgetting to threaten: "Wait, you all wait!" Wait for me ......"

Zaji drew his long knife, and the Hun envoy crawled out of the Taishou Mansion in fright.

Zhang Qian nodded at Zaji: "Captain Zaji has done a good job, from now on I will strengthen the guards of the Jade Gate, and after the arrival of Captain Zaji, the two of you will work together, and the safety of my Dahan Border County will be entrusted!" ”

Zaji hurriedly knelt down: "Don't worry, Zaji will live and die with Yumen!" ”

After receiving the messenger's reward, King Hutu just sighed and said nothing. Under the gaze of a group of generals and young generals, he silently left his throne and went to the back account. The stab looked at General Zuo in confusion, but General Zuo ignored his eyes and left with people. The spike immediately chased out of the king's tent and grabbed the sleeve of General Zuo: "General, this!" The Han people humiliated us so much, how could the king give up? ”

General Zuo glanced at him: "Then what do you think should be?" ”

The spur immediately said: "The Han people are cowardly, let's lead our troops to attack Yumen!" Last time, I should have taken the Jade Gate in one go, and I shouldn't have promised Su Ren's promise! ”

General Zuo sighed: "Hey! Let's go back and prepare the horses! ”

Spike Dajo: "No! I'm going to prepare soldiers and horses to attack Yumen! ”

General Zuo stretched out his hand to stop the spur, and shook his head slightly: "It's not to attack the Jade Gate, but to advance eastward, our Xiongnu's new Danyu is about to ascend the throne, and if you don't go, you won't be able to catch up with the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky!" ”
