Lu Bu, who returned to Bingzhou, seemed to vent his emotional frustration on the attack on the Xiongnu, and broke into the Xiongnu camp with only a thousand wolf horses. Wherever the halberd goes, it is invincible.

It wasn't until the big tent of the Xiongnu Shan Yu that the sharp attack came to an abrupt end. Yufro, who was standing outside the tent, was in no mood to sigh at the military wind in front of him that was like thunder, like still water, and the cold halberd was pressed between his throats, and he looked at the cold and contemptuous gaze of the owner of the halberd, and he couldn't help but tremble.

At the beginning of August of the second year of Guangxi, the war report of Bingzhou was transmitted back to Luoyang, Kyoto. The war can be said to be lackluster, and 8,000 wolves rode thousands of miles to attack the enemy near Dingyang, Shangjun. Sima Lübu, the commander of the state army, broke into the camp of 30,000 Huns with a thousand horsemen, and captured the enemy chief Yu Fuluo in the midst of the ten thousand troops. not only really passed the addiction of Huo Qu's disease, but also achieved his reputation as a "flying general".

From then on, when the Huns mentioned Lu Bu, they all regarded them as gods.

The victory came so quickly that Liu Wei felt a little caught off guard. Originally, he imagined that the Bingzhou army should have repelled the Huns, and then he would send envoys to negotiate with Yuvro as planned. Unexpectedly, Lu Bu was so brave that he directly captured Fu Luo as a prisoner. It is no wonder that he was regarded as the first in force among the Three Kingdoms, and he could become a hegemonic prince in the late Eastern Han Dynasty with his own bravery.

Due to the lack of pre-estimates, the huge military victory created a big political problem, and the handling of Yu Fuluo made Liu Wei very troubled. Whether to kill or release, he has always hesitated.

Moreover, Lü Busheng calmly retreated after capturing Fuluo, and the rest of the Hun cavalry dared not stop him because he was concerned about Fuluo's safety and Lü Bu's bravery. So now the 30,000 enemy troops of the Xiongnu did not retreat, but they were stationed in the area of Dingyang and did not dare to move.

Information from the front indicated that Yu Fuluo's younger brother Luan Tihu Chuquan, who was temporarily pushed out to power after Yu Fuluo was captured, did not seem to be able to fully control the Xiongnu army under his command. Incidents began to occur throughout the army in which small groups of sergeants broke up and intruded on the surrounding towns.

Liu Wei was worried that if the Xiongnu army in the territory collapsed, broke into pieces, and scattered among the villages, it would be a great danger to the Han Empire.

If the imperial court came forward to swallow the 30,000 Xiongnu troops, it would be a little powerless, and the internal problems of the Han Empire itself had not been completely resolved, not to mention how to settle the Xiongnu army and how to assimilate between the different cultures of the Xiongnu and the Han people.

Therefore, Liu argued again and again, and decided to negotiate with Yu Fuluo according to the original plan, but the conditions proposed were much harsher than before. Anyway, Yu Fuluo is now a prisoner, and if he wants to live, he can only be obedient.

Liu Wei also didn't want to send people in the imperial court, so he directly ordered Wang Yun as a special envoy and proposed to Yu Fuluo the terms of peace talks in the Han Empire:

Article 1: Sino-Hungarian friendship. The Han was willing to send troops to help Fu Luo restore the country and exterminate the "rebellion" within the Xiongnu.

Article 2 After Yu Fuluo returned to the country and ascended the throne, the Xiongnu must be declared a vassal to the Han Dynasty, accept the canonization of the imperial court, recognize its status as a vassal state, and send his son to Beijing as a hostage.

Third, the Xiongnu must no longer intrude on the border of the Han Dynasty, and for the prosperity of the two countries, the Han Dynasty is willing to open the border and communicate with the Xiongnu.

Article 4 In order to keep up with the pace of civilization of the Han Empire, the Xiongnu should adopt Chinese characters as their official language and script and accept Han culture. The Great Han Society then sent people into the Xiongnu tribe for indoctrination.

Article 5 In the future, all diplomatic, military, and political decisions of the Xiongnu must be subordinated to the command of the Han Empire.

The captured Yu Fuluo thought that he was already a meat on the chopping board and would not die and would shed his skin, but who knew that after hearing the conditions for peace talks proposed by Wang Yun, he was pleasantly surprised to find that he could not only escape, but also realize his long-standing dream of recovering the country.

However, Yu Fuluo was not a fool, and he also understood that if he really accepted this treaty, the Xiongnu would be completely reduced to a subordinate of the Han Dynasty, and the nation would be exterminated and assimilated. However, in the eyes of Yu Fuluo, the current Xiongnu can no longer recover its heyday, and the relationship with the Han Dynasty has long since changed from the confrontation of chess opponents to the relationship of dependence. The treaty only lifts the fig leaf and clarifies the relationship between the two sides.

The open borders in the treaty were also advantageous to the Xiongnu, the vast northern steppes were poor in resources, and the Xiongnu did not produce anything except grazing. They are now desperately coming to the Central Plains to rob, in fact, they just want to eat. Now the Han is willing to open the border for trade, although it is not as easy as the robbery, but it is also better than living with a head.

The most important thing is that Yu Fuluo is still a prisoner of the Han Empire, and if he refuses strongly, it may be a situation where he will be killed with a knife.

Therefore, in the face of such harsh conditions, Yu Fuluo still accepted most of the orders, but expressed his opposition to sending protons to Beijing and learning Han culture.

Yu Fuluo had just had such a son in his forties, and he was in infancy at this time, so he was really worried if he was sent to the capital as a proton. And the opposition to learning Han culture is more for the Xiongnu tribe not to be assimilated by the Han people.

However, Wang Yun, who was in charge of negotiations, has always been a pacesetter among scholars and doctors under the influence of Confucianism, and in his eyes, it is a matter of course for foreign vassals to send their sons as hostages, and now the Han culture is dominated by Confucian culture, and the promotion of Han culture to the Xiongnu is to promote Confucian culture, which is exactly the dream of the Quartet of the sages Confucius. Wang Yun naturally insisted on this, and Yu Fuluo didn't dare to be too tough, so he finally nodded and agreed.

Wang Yun saw Yu Fuluo's obedient attitude, and he was also very happy, and considered the problem that Yu Fuluo's son was indeed young, and presented his case to the court on his behalf. Half a month later, Yu Fuluo received a handwritten reply from Liu Bian, saying that he would raise Fuluo's son as his own son, and issued an edict to accept Yu Fuluo's son as his righteous son, and give him the surname Liu, because the child had not yet married a name, Liu Bian named the child Liu Bao.

Only then did Juvro reassure and nodded and agreed to all the treaties. Wang Yun immediately asked him to sign the prepared treaty. These treaties are the "Dingyang Treaty" or the "Five Articles of Han-Hungarian Friendship" in the history books of later generations, which are the first diplomatic treaties in the history of the Han nation to fall on the text, and were jointly signed and entered into force by the prince of Bingzhou Mu Yun and the Xiongnu Shan Yu Luan Ti Yufuluo. (There is no text for the Xiongnu, and the handprints pressed by Yu Fuluo.) ）

After the treaty was signed, Huvro was also released to restrain the troops. Later, Wang Yun followed Liu Bian's wishes and built a stone tablet on the Han-Hungarian border, which was engraved with the contents of the treaty. The two sides swore in front of the monument that they would abide by the contents of the treaty forever, and if they violated the oath, the sky would thunder.

At the same time, Ding Yuan also organized the army to assist Yu Fuluo in returning to China and reinstating the throne. And at the strong request of Yu Fuluo, he sent Lu Bu to lead troops back with him.

The Huns, who worship the strong by nature, have worshiped Lü Bu's force to the point that there is nothing to add to it after the first battle of Dingyang, and Yu Fuluo did not feel that there was anything hateful about Lu Bu who captured him alive, but admired his force, thinking that with his help, he would definitely make his restoration successful.

The problem of the Xiongnu in the north was solved, and the wedding of Zhang Fei and Ren Hongchang was also overdue.

Naturally, the marriage of the heavenly family cannot be sloppy, and the six rites of Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Nazheng, inviting dates, and welcoming the ancients are indispensable.

Different from the lively and festive modern weddings, the wedding ceremonies of the Han Dynasty were complex and diverse, focusing on etiquette, reflecting the solemnity and sacredness of marriage.

When getting married, it is mostly at dusk, because dusk is "yang goes and yin comes" in the theory of yin and yang, and women belong to yin, so dusk is the time to accept yin.

It was already evening, and there was no musical accompaniment to set the atmosphere, and both men and women wore dresses, with the man wearing a crown and hat, and the woman with her head crossed. First, the salute sang praises, and Liu Wei, as the brother-in-law, personally came to the wedding scene to sing praises for Zhang Fei and Ren Hongchang, which made the two feel extremely honored and grateful.

Liu Bian's move was not to buy people's hearts, but based on Liu Bian's feelings for Ren Hongchang, he wanted to witness her happiness. The praise was written by him himself, and after unfolding the Luoyang paper, Liu Wei recited it in frustration:

Zir newlywed,

Congratulations to guests,

Testimonials of family and friends,

Tie the knot.

Praise said:

Fuxi marryed, and Nuwa made a matchmaking appointment.

More and more refined, the moon runs its flower, called the avenue of heaven and earth.

People take marriage as a fixed ceremony, eat together, and drink together.

Since then, the husband and wife have raised their eyebrows, flying with wings, never giving up on wealth and glory, and sharing all difficulties and dangers.

The situation remains unchanged in the dry sea and rotten stones.

Its love is more than the vicissitudes of life.

Husband and wife respect each other as guests,

Each according to his courtesy, the children and grandchildren will multiply, and the family will prosper.

For Erjiayuan, I hereby praise.

Praiser: The Great Han Emperor Guangxi debated.

With the end of Liu Wei's praise, Zhang Fei and Ren Hongchang walked into the lobby holding hands, first pouring their hands with water, and then the two walked up to the top of the lobby and sat opposite each other in front of a long case, and then it was the ceremony of joining the prison.

The so-called "same prison" means that a married man and a woman eat the meat of the same animal together. The gourd is cut into two, and the husband and wife each hold one, which is connected by a red thread, and the wine is poured on it, and the husband and wife drink it together. Divided into two, the gourd connected by a thread in the middle represents the wedding that connects the two strangers together, and the gourd has a bitter taste, and the wine filled with it is also bitter wine, which has a layer of meaning that husband and wife share joys and sorrows.

After the ceremony of joining the prison, Zhang Fei got up and took off the engagement token "Ying" from Ren Hongchang's bun, held it high to show the guests kneeling on both sides, and then tied it to his waist, showing that Ren Hongchang had married to Zhang's wife.

Then two more maids came to the stage, cutting off a lock of hair of Zhang Fei and Ren Hongchang with a short dagger, and put them together in a red bag, which means a married couple.

At this moment, the entire wedding ceremony is over, and the two couples are ready to enter the back hall. Zhang Fei didn't know why it was a whim, and he didn't care if he didn't agree with the courtesy, so he suddenly hugged Ren Hongchang.

The sudden attack made Ren Hongchang unprepared, and he shouted out with an "ah". His cheeks were as shy as dripping blood, but he didn't struggle in Zhang Fei's arms, but buried his head deep in Zhang Fei's chest.

Zhang Fei laughed and said to himself: "How blessed my old Zhang is, to marry such a beautiful girl!" ”

After hearing this, all the guests couldn't help laughing, only Liu Wei looked at the back of them leaving, and his heart was slightly sour. Suddenly, I remembered watching Stephen Chow's "Jiupin Sesame Official" in my previous life, and there was a plot in it that was very similar to the present. Thinking of Stephen Chow's crazy appearance and calling Zhang Min back, Liu Wei fantasized that he was like him, and couldn't help laughing at himself.

Immediately, Liu Wei issued an edict and set up a banquet in the West Garden to entertain the guests and friends who watched the ceremony. Zhang Fei's parents died early, and the people in the clan were thin, and the people who came to his wedding were all his old people in the township of Zhuo County, or colleagues in the army. Hearing that the emperor was going to entertain guests in the palace, everyone was naturally excited, especially some military attachés with good wine, and heard that Liu Wei was going to bring all the pear wine and red fire in the palace to entertain the guests, and he was even more excited. Not long after Zhang Fei became the captain of the shooting voice, most of the colleagues who could attend his wedding were middle-level or low-level military attachés. Today can be regarded as choosing, everyone is gearing up, and their eyes are green.

That night, Liu Wei ignored the dissuasion of Lu Zhi and Liu Bei and got drunk. The same drunk and unconscious as him is also related to Yu.

In the early morning of the next day, Liu Bianyin had already woken up, and it was already the time to prepare for the morning pilgrimage at this time, but as soon as Liu Bianyin sat up, he suddenly felt a splitting headache and thirst in his mouth.

Before he could open his mouth to ask for water, someone had already handed a bowl of water to his mouth. Liu Wei was extremely thirsty, and he didn't see who it was, so he picked up the bowl and drank the water into his stomach. Feeling that it was still not enough, he pushed the bowl to the man again, and said, "It's not enough, another bowl." ”

The man took the bowl and said softly, "Your Majesty will rest for a while, and the concubine will fetch water for you." ”

Liu Wei heard who the voice was, and couldn't help but look at her in surprise, and asked, "Sister Tang, why are you here?" ”

Tang Ji smiled softly and said, "Your Majesty, I am your wife, so naturally I am here!" ”

Liu Wei's face turned red, and he said embarrassedly: "I mean, why did you wake up so early." ”

"It's the time of the year, and the concubines will wait for Your Majesty to change their clothes and go to court at this time every day."

Liu Wei suddenly said: "It's so late, it's time to go to the early court, I'm ......"

I struggled to get out of bed, but my body went limp, and I sat back weakly.

Tang Ji looked at Liu Wei's pale face, and said distressedly: "Your Majesty's health is not safe, so today's early dynasty will be exempted." ”

Liu Wei smiled bitterly and said: "Inevitably, now that I have just taken the throne, everything is difficult at the beginning, if I can't be diligent in government, I'm afraid that some will cry when the time comes." ”

Saying that, he had to get up hard, but who knew that his head hurt violently, and his body was planted, Tang Ji hurriedly grabbed him and held him up.

"Your Majesty is diligent and not afraid of hard work, but you also have to care about your body." Tang Ji persuaded again.

Liu Wei rubbed his head and said with self-reproach: "Alas, it seems that I really drank too much." Lu Gong and you often advise me to drink less wine, so as not to make mistakes, it seems that today is really going to delay the business. ”

Tang Ji lowered his head and said faintly: "Your Majesty is depressed in her heart, and the concubine understands in her heart. Actually......"

"I know!" Liu Wei suddenly interrupted her. Tang Ji was stunned, not understanding how Liu Wei would know what she was going to say.

"In fact, there are some things that don't belong to you after all, and even if I am the son of heaven, it is difficult to overcome the sky. Drinking so much wine is also to get drunk and relieve a thousand sorrows, and now that a thousand sorrows have been solved, I have already figured it out. As for the future......"

Liu Wei said and took Tang Ji's hand.

"It's just you and I, walking together."

Tang Ji blushed and leaned on Liu Wei's shoulder wordlessly.

Suddenly, a yellow door voice sounded outside the screen: "Your Majesty, Wei Changshi is in a hurry." ”

Since the establishment of the Unified Investigation Agency, there has been a lot of information on all sides, and generally only those major and urgent matters Wei Yi will rush to come during non-office hours.

Liu Wei was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly replied: "See you in the living room of Wei Changshi." ”

Huangmen agreed. When Tang Ji heard that Liu Wei had something, she stood up obediently and was busy changing Liu Wei's clothes. Liu Wei freshened up, poured two bowls of water in a row, and then walked to the living room to see Wei Yi.

In the living room, Wei Yi had already sat down on the back chair, and when he saw Liu Wei coming, he hurriedly got up to give a salute, and before Liu Wei could ask what was coming, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is not good, there is something big in the west." ”

Liu Wei immediately thought of Liangzhou, his heart sank, and Wei Yi immediately said: "Li Dao, Guo Yan, it's the opposite!" ”
