Chapter 286: Greeting the Relatives

Even the emperor exonerated Liu Yu, and Yuan Bolang had to reserve no matter how much he had an opinion. Originally, he was just unreasonable, but now that the fire is going down, he also feels a little too aggressive.

Su Yan said: "Yuan Xiang, tomorrow the Turkic envoys will enter Chang'an City, or you will receive it!" ”

Yuan Bolang glanced at Liu Yu, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, the old minister wants to run for the assassination of the Hui envoy, as for the Turkic envoy, the old minister has no leisure to receive it. It's better to go by Wuyihou. ”

Liu Yu smiled bitterly and was speechless, just now he had framed him for colluding with the Turks, and now let him go to receive him, as if he was not afraid that he would have any plans with the Turks. Su Yan looked over and asked, "Master, do you have time?" ”

Liu Yue, who asked this question, couldn't say "no", he was really idle now, as we all know, he was building a drama garden, if he couldn't get out of the way, others would be too busy with political affairs to be separated.

"Then the minister will be in charge of the reception." Liu Yue said indifferently.

Su Yan seemed to have solved a matter on his mind, nodded happily, and asked the others to retreat first, saying that he had something to discuss with Liu Yue. Although Min Shaoqing and Yuan Bolang also wanted to know what the new emperor would say to Liu Yu, they still knew what the duty of a courtier was, since the emperor said so, there was something important to discuss, and they had to avoid being a courtier.

When everyone else retreated, Su Yan immediately confessed: "Master, I couldn't help it before, Yuan Xiang had to ask me to call the master, saying that I wanted to make it clear in person, I knew that what he said must be nothing, but ......"

Liu Yu waved his hand and said: "The minister understands the emperor's distress, and it is better to make it clear in person this kind of thing." ”

Liu Yu only blamed himself for being too talkative. I have to say something constructive. There is an authentic way to say anything. At that time, he pretended to be dumb, and no one would rely on him. Liu Yu continued: "That tunnel has been built for a long time, and it is likely that it was not built by this dynasty, so it should be carefully investigated when you go back." ”

Su Yan nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"If the emperor has nothing else to do, the minister will leave." Liu Yu saluted.

Su Yan hurriedly said: "Don't, master, there is one more thing I want to explain to you clearly." ”

Seeing that Liu Yu frowned and was puzzled, Su Yan continued. "This time, the Turkic envoys came, in addition to discussing some things on the border, they also wanted to make peace with our Dashun Dynasty."

Liu Yu was stunned in his heart, it was originally a state of war with the Turks, and no one on either side was convinced of anyone, if he was close, wouldn't he admit that he wanted to exchange marriage for peace on the border of the Great Shun Dynasty? and relatives are small, if the Turks open their mouths on the dowry, it will be self-defeating and unwise.

"Who promised to kiss?" Liu Yu was annoyed at the moment, "It won't be that you want us to marry a princess in the Dashun Dynasty and sleep in the open for decades." Give them the Turks cattle and horses? ”

Su Yan blinked and was slightly puzzled, and immediately explained: "The master must have misunderstood. It was their Turks who would marry the daughter of a khan and say that they would be my concubine, such a harmony. ”

Liu Yu was slightly relieved, to say that among the princesses in the court now, there are not many marriageable ages, if Yuan Bolang and Min Shaoqing intend to embarrass him, they must push the fourteenth princess Qi'er into the carriage of harmony, then he will definitely regret it for life. Now hearing that it was a Turkic who married his daughter, Liu Yu couldn't help but want to laugh.

Liu Yu said in a flat tone: "Prairie women, they all grew up drinking goat's milk and eating mutton, and they haven't bathed for several months, can you stand her sass?" ”

Su Yan might have thought that he was very happy to meet a foreign woman, but when he heard Liu Yu say this, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed, and asked, "Master, they are from the grassland...... Is that really the case? ”

"Turkic women, not only dirty, but also rude, think about it, they live on horseback all the year round, they must have big shoulders and round waists, whether the female army deputy marshal Xu Caihua has seen it, it is estimated that they all have the same virtue as her. You better think about it, don't find it yourself! ”

Su Yan was completely flustered at this time, and hurriedly said: "That master, you must find a way to help me push this marriage tomorrow, I don't want to marry a woman like Vice Marshal Xu, it's terrible!" ”

Liu Yuxin said that he was too bad, and he pushed the woman sent by the Turks without even seeing what she looked like, which would definitely cause dissatisfaction among the Turks. But when I think about it, now the Turks themselves are still fighting among themselves, and it is estimated that the daughter of a khan sent over at this time will soon be the "daughter of the former khan", and such a marriage is still not advisable. It is not appropriate to talk to the steppe people about peace, but it is better to use force directly.

After talking about the Turkic and pro-Turkic affairs, Su Yan didn't have anything else to say, but he still went through some necessary procedures for him. Liu Yu transformed himself into a "greeting envoy", responsible for welcoming and entertaining the Turkic envoys.

When he returned home and told Xu Xuanzhu about this, Xu Xuanzhu was puzzled: "How could the Turks suddenly propose to make peace?" ”

Xu Xuanzhu has been at war with the Turks in the north for many years, and understands the temper and temperament of the Turks. In the eyes of the Turks, women are the most precious wealth, not only can they be bought and sold and gifted, but the important thing is that they can be passed on to the steppe. The Turkic khan suddenly sent his daughter to the Central Plains, breaking the consistent principles of the steppe people.

Liu Yu sighed and said, "If you see the Turkic envoy tomorrow, you will know what is going on." Now that the Hui envoy has been assassinated and the city gate is closed, it may be a little troublesome to welcome the Turks into the city tomorrow, and Chang'an City will not be peaceful these days. ”

The teams of the vassal kings entering Beijing have arrived in Chang'an City one after another, and these vassal kings are very low-key after entering Chang'an City, and they are closed in their mansions or post houses, and it is also very likely that there will be chaos in Chang'an City. Liu Yu thought about it, now it is most likely to influence the situation of the dynasty, and the internal unstable factor in the Dashun Dynasty is Su Zhe, the king of Chu, and Su Zhe's whereabouts are still unknown. It is always a curse to keep it.

Will Su Zhe use the imperial court to deliberately cut down the feudal domains and contact these feudal kings in an attempt to "set things right"?

The next day, Liu Yu got up very early, went directly to meet the emperor with his guards, received some documents, and went to the west gate of the city to greet the Turkic envoys. As a result, by noon, the Turkic envoys were still nowhere to be seen, and the people from the Yamen of the Defense Division were asked to ride out of the palace to investigate, and there was no Turkic envoy on the road.

"Nothing will happen, will it?" Liu Yu glanced at Chai Jin who was walking with him, this time Chai Jin followed Liu Yu out to "study and investigate", that is, to learn how to receive foreign envoys, or the fourth princess specially instructed him.

Chai Jin didn't know why: "I don't know what to do." ”

Liu Yu waited at the west gate of the city for a day, and when the sun set and dusk, there was finally news that the Turks were chasing someone on horseback, as if they had encountered an assassin.

"Assassin again?" Liu Yu stood up and said sharply, "How many assassins are there?" ”

"I don't know how to go, it doesn't seem to be much, and those Turks are also very fierce and don't listen to us at all." The scout in charge of going out to investigate.

Liu Yuxin said that this Chang'an City is really a treasure of feng shui, and there are waves of assassins.

It was not until after dark that they received definite news that the Turks had not encountered the assassins, but that they were in charge of escorting the "Turkic princess", who had fled when they saw Chang'an City, and they chased after them. (To be continued......)
