King Shule! Liu Xin wants him to be the king of Shule! Baguli was completely stunned. Yes, Camberin is dead, but Camberin's son is still there, even if Liu Xin wants to eradicate all the Camberin family, but there are still many nobles in Shule City, no matter how soft he is, a small lowly commoner to be the king of Shule. However, now these words came out of Liu Xin's mouth. Who is Liu Xin? The two kings said that they would cut it, and what he said was Chrysostom, so how could he not believe it?

Just when Baguli was still a little ignorant, Liu Xin had already said in a deep voice: "Wen Chang! ”

Wei Yan hurriedly clenched his fists and said loudly: "The end will be!" ”

Liu Xin nodded and said, "Wen Chang, you immediately order 20,000 horses and escort Bagul and his subjects to Shule."

Wei Yan straightened his chest and said loudly: "The last general will obey the order!" ”

Baguli was still like a dream, and muttered in his mouth: "My lord, I, I, am I really the king of Shule?" ”

Liu Xin said with a serious face: "Not bad! From now on, you are the king of Shule. When you return to Shule, remember to be kind to your subjects. If you want to keep all the women in the palace, you can keep them, but you don't want to keep the treasures in the palace alone, remember to share some with the subjects outside, they are the greatest support for you to sit on the throne of Shule. ”

Pagul is not the same as Saadin. Saadin was originally the king of Pishan, and he was also a nobleman among the Hu people, and he came to be the king of Shache, which would not cause much backlash from the Shache nobles. However, Bagul was a serious commoner, and he was the poor kind, and the nobles of Shule obviously did not take him seriously.

Liu Xin is not very worried about this. Shule is close to Dawan, which is also the border area of the first phase of his reconstruction of the Western Regions Protectorate, he will definitely deploy heavy troops there, even if the nobles in the city oppose Bagul as the king, they only dare to mutter a few words behind their backs, but they dare not really rise up to overthrow him. Liu Xin's real concern is about the civilians who live at the bottom of society like Bagul.

People sometimes have strange thoughts, and they often can't see that others are better off than themselves, especially those who have lived worse than themselves. It's like Bagul, who was so poor that he couldn't live anymore, and now he has become their king, and I don't know how many people envy and hate him, until they curse him behind their backs.

Of course, Liu Xin's subjects will not refer to those civilians in Shule City, but those Shule captives outside the city, each of these captives involves a family behind them, and these captives will definitely not sincerely stand on the side of those nobles, since a few days ago when he appointed Saadin as the king of Shache, and then asked Saadin to distribute some of the money in the palace of Shache to the captives, the excited expressions of those captives speak for themselves. Now, what Liu Xin is doing is just repeating the old tricks.

After another two days, Dian Wei escorted Minchan, Yan Rui and others to Pishan City, and Princess Liya of Loulan naturally followed. Although Liya learned from Minchan's appearance and also veiled, she did not change her straightforward personality at all, and Liu Xin shouted loudly: "Lord Liu, I heard that you encountered horse bandits again?" ”

Liu Xin waved his hand and corrected her: "It's not that I met them again, but I risked my life to lure them out personally, and since then the caravan in the Western Regions has been safe." ”

Liya didn't believe that Liu Xin would have such a brave sacrifice, snorted lightly, and asked, "I heard that half of the cloud has gathered many people, I wonder if the black whirlwind is coming?" ”

Hearing the words "black whirlwind", Liu Xin was slightly stunned, then shook his head and said, "I told you a long time ago, the black whirlwind is not suitable for you." ”

Every time someone mentions the black whirlwind, Liu Xin will almost subconsciously be stunned, and Minchan, who is accustomed to observing words and feelings, faintly feels that there is a special relationship between Liu Xin and the black whirlwind. However, she never imagined that Black Whirlwind would be a woman, and only thought that Xuan Whirlwind and Liu Xin had just reached some secret agreement. Minchan is a woman who knows how to measure, and she will not ask about government affairs. And the black whirlwind is the big hero in Liya's mind, where can she listen to Liu Xin's words, pursed her lips with disdain, and walked aside. Liu Xin sighed faintly, and also didn't say anything, just let everyone rest for a while, and then set off for Shache.

There is no king in Pishan City, and it is destined to become an ordinary castle on the Silk Road, but Liu Xin believes that as long as the trade route is opened, it will not be long before the endless stream of caravans will make it as prosperous as the rest of the Western Regions.

Hearing the news that Liu Xin had set off for Shache, Saadin hurriedly led the whole country to meet him twenty miles out of the city. Saadin is not Bagul, he has been a king for so many years, and with a small country with poor strength, he can maneuver between Shache and Khotan in every possible way, and survive to this day, so he naturally has his unique skills.

When Saadin arrived at Shache, he was not alone, but he had only a hundred or so guards and more than 7,000 captives at Pishan. However, he also carried a sharp weapon with him, which was Gu Muji's human head. After entering Shache City, the first thing Saadin did was to go straight to the palace according to Liu Xin's instructions, open the treasure house of Gumuji, and distribute all the treasures in it to the captives who returned to Shache with him, without leaving even a copper plate for himself.

This move immediately won the support of the captives. In the Western Regions and the surrounding countries, all the people are soldiers, and with the support of these captives, it is equivalent to getting the support of most of the people. For those who died in the battle outside Pishan, Saadin also gave a small amount of bereavement to their families. Although these pensions are small, they are essential to stabilizing people's hearts, after all, nearly 3,000 Shache young men have been buried outside Pishan City, and their families are likely to be unable to sustain themselves, and they will inevitably complain about the new ruler. Now that I have received this pension, I feel a little better psychologically, and it is much more pleasing to the eye when I look at Saadin again.

Next, Saadin gathered all the nobles of the city again. Most of these nobles did not want to look at Saadin's face, but the situation was stronger than the people, and Gumuji's head was still hanging at the gate of the city. They all knew what Gu Muji was doing, how could he resist the 40,000 coalition army with Saadin's small Pishan, obviously he had the support of the Han people. The nobles have not lived for so many years in vain, and it is okay to say that they have endured humiliation and burden, and it is okay to say that they have made compromises, and no one has any objection to Saadin sitting high on the throne anyway. All they have to think about now is to keep their position in Shache and their vested interests unchanged.

Saadin did not embarrass them, and all of them kept their original positions unchanged, and their property and slaves were not affected in the slightest. Except for the core guards around Saadin, even if it was just a small official guarding the palace gate, Saadin did not change. In this way, the nobles were relieved. Gu Muji is dead, do you want them to accompany Gu Muji to be buried together? Everyone immediately rallied to Saadin's side, and there was no chaos in the whole of Yarkand City.

As for Gu Muji's concubines and those palace maids, although Liu Xin said that these women could belong to him, Saadin was not carried away by the desire for profit, and he did not live in the palace at all. The women in Gumuji were still eating and drinking, and he didn't even dare to touch a finger, so he kept them all for Liu Xin.

Liu Xin was very satisfied that Saadin was able to stabilize the situation in Shache in such a short period of time, and said kind words of encouragement, but listened to Saadin say: "There are several concubines in Gumuji who are quite attractive. Adults have been working hard all day long, and tonight is just the right time to relax, Xiao Wang has already arranged it for adults. ”

Liu Xin was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "Saadin, I understand your kindness, you should keep these women for yourself." Remember, treat them well, and don't forget that there are quite a few Shache aristocrats involved behind these women. ”

Saadin felt shocked at this time, he only regarded these women as trophies, but forgot that they were originally Gu Muji's concubines, and there were many big families of Shache standing behind them, no wonder Liu Xin could reward Huang Zhong and him with the two concubines of Lan Feng respectively, but let him accept Gu Muji's women in their entirety, which originally had a deep meaning.

Liu Xin stayed in Shache for only one night, leaving behind a force of 3,000 Han infantry, and then hurried to the city of Shule, where he was most worried. Bagul was definitely competent as a guide, but it was a bit hasty to make him king, and even if he was put on a horse, he had to be given another ride.

Compared to the smooth transition of Shache, the situation in Shule is much more complicated. When the nobles of the city saw Camberin's head, they caused a commotion on the spot, and one of them immediately jumped out to avenge Camberin, and pointed the finger at Baguli. This man's name was Chekari, the brother of one of Camberin's concubines, and a nobleman in the city. Not only did he clamore for killing Baguli, but he also incited other nobles to mobilize their own domestic slaves and private soldiers to kill Baguli and the Han soldiers who entered the city.

Of course, Chekari didn't really want to avenge Campbellin, he was eyeing the throne of the king. The other nobles had the same intention of following him, but unlike the Chekari, they did not want to offend the Han Chinese.

Although they did not want to offend the Han Chinese, they did not want Baguli to be their king. After all, they have never even heard of this Bagul, so why should they be this king. And they still have a little Jiujiu in their hearts, since Camberin is dead, then the king should also be produced among them, as long as they don't rebel against the big Han in the future, why bother to get a hillbilly to come over and ride on their heads.
