In the Western Regions, the definition of a state is a group of people who occupy a place where there is a water source and an oasis. Because of the dispersion of water sources, the various countries in the Western Regions are also quite scattered, and most of the places are barren.

At present, there are a total of forty or fifty countries in the Western Regions, and no one counts the specific numbers, and no one cares, the main reason is that in addition to those famous big countries, most of the small countries have a population ranging from tens to hundreds of people, and in the Central Plains, there are more than dozens of people in a village, and these people go to which oasis in the desert, and the whole is isolated from the world. In a few decades, it will be known that a country will still have dozens of people, an oasis is limited, and a small country in the Western Regions wants to develop its population, and water is the biggest problem.

And in large countries like Yueshi, Qiuzi, and Gumo, the population is only tens of thousands, and most of them are gathered in the city. Although the names of these countries have not changed much over the centuries, the regimes have changed many times ago, but each time the successors have no interest in changing the names of the countries.

Among these countries, Gaochang is an alternative country.

First, Gaochang is close to the Central Plains, deeply influenced by the Central Plains culture, and the monarchy system is very perfect, and the country's power has been passed down from the same surname for more than 200 years, which can be said to be very stable. Before Gaochang was also good at winning over the power of the Central Plains Dynasty, helping them establish the status of "leader state" in the Western Regions, Gaochang was also the representative country of the Western Regions when the military strength was the strongest, when the Turks were just emerging and had no time to look south, and the large countries in the Western Regions annexed small countries seriously, and the Gaochang that rose at that time. Become the leader of the Western Regions. But soon its status declined.

This is primarily of Turkic interest. and the Shun Dynasty's disinterest in the Western Regions.

After the founding of the Shun Dynasty. As always, Gaochang wanted to take refuge, but the founding emperor of the Shun Dynasty rejected Gaochang's envoy, and the country gradually declined due to the invasion of Gaochang by various tribes in the southern Turkic region. In the past twenty or thirty years, in order to protect itself, Gaochang has successively become a vassal of Qiuzi and Yue, and the land area is getting smaller and smaller day by day.

Liu Yu now has to do his homework on this small country, because that is the only way for him to return to the Central Plains. If this time Gaochang's envoys are sincere. He didn't even mind putting on makeup and escaping, going to Gaochang to seek refuge, and then turning east through the Hexi Corridor back to Guanzhong.

Liu Yu drew a map of the Western Regions according to the description of Moro and others, and he always felt that there was something wrong with the comparison, and the size of many countries could not be reflected from a map.

While Liu Yu was staring at the map in a daze, Timur was still eating her food, Timur had a good appetite since she came to Yue's Clan, and she liked to eat alone. resolutely did not give the food to Liu Yu, of course, Liu Yu didn't care about that bit of food.

"Do you really want to go back to the Central Plains?" Timur saw that Liu Yue did not speak for a long time. Finally couldn't bear the loneliness and asked.

"There is my family there, you said I want to go back, don't you want to go back to the grassland as soon as possible?"

Timur shook his head, his face was ugly, and said: "Actually, it's the same if you don't go back, but I prefer to be free outside, but ...... I'm afraid I won't have enough to eat and I won't have a place to sleep. ”

Longing for freedom but fearing that there is no guarantee of life under freedom, Liu Yu thought to himself, looking forward to the future, he should not learn to run away from marriage. Liu Yu also imagined what would happen if Timur hadn't escaped from the marriage, and would probably stay in Chang'an City, and be placed in the National Post House by him, the greeting envoy, and eat as idly as he did today. Su Yan never thought of marrying her at all, and Liu Yu would not let this political marriage happen. Of course, after the war with the Turks, Timur's life in Chang'an City would also be insecure, and no one would be willing to take care of the princess of such an enemy country.

"You said you went to greet me that day, so are you an official in the Central Plains?" Timur asked.

"Hmm." Liu Yu continued to look down at the map, writing and drawing, "Very big official." ”

"Then do you know someone named Liu Wenyan?"

When Liu Yu heard his name, he couldn't help but raise his head and look at Timur, he didn't expect that he was so famous, even this exotic princess had heard of him.

"That's a general of the Shun Dynasty, what do you ask him to do?"

"Humph!" Timur's nose tilted, "That's my enemy, if I see him, I will definitely dismantle him!" ”

Liu Yuxin said that this is really a disaster, when did he provoke such an enemy?

Liu Yue asked curiously: "You are far away, you should have never met, how can you have such a big grudge?" ”

"If he hadn't defeated our Iron Wolf Guard, our Turks would not have been in turmoil again and again, my father and my people wouldn't have been bullied by those people, and I wouldn't have had to marry far away to the Central Plains and then flee here, you say this...... In the words of your Central Plains people, don't share the hatred of the sky? ”

Liu Yu coughed twice, continued to lower his head and said, "Then you will continue to fight together, I wish you an early victory!" ”

"Thank you!"

Timur graciously thanked him and continued to eat his food.

Because the envoys from Gaochang and Loulan were coming the next day, Liu Yu had to plan well in advance, such as the path back to the Central Plains. Now Loulan has been excluded from his visit to the country, because it is not convenient to return to the Central Plains, and as for Gaochang is in the midst of internal and external troubles, he is not interested in visiting, and the etiquette is perfunctory.

That night, the Malaysian general sent someone to inform Liu Yu that he would participate in the reception of the envoys of Gaochang and Loulan the next day, and this was the third wave of people to inform him of this matter today. Liu Yu suddenly felt like he was in a crack, and the three forces of the Yue clan seemed to be pulling him in, and they all seemed to be wary of him, for fear that he would become a friend of the enemy. In this regard, it was the treacherous and Turkic Lu Rufan who had the highest sincerity towards him.

The person who sent off the Malaysian general, Liu Yu thought that there was nothing wrong, but Lu Lufan ran over in a panic and brought a news that surprised Liu Yu: "The king is critically ill!" ”

"The king's critical illness should be good news, why are you so flustered?" Liu Yu asked puzzled.

"Good news?" Lu Lufan remembered the usurpation of the throne, and then explained, "Special envoy, you may not know, the king of the Yue clan has only one son, that is, the queen's son, who is now nine years old, if this little prince is allowed to ascend the throne, the queen will definitely not stand on our side to deal with the two generals." And how can it be good news that the two generals might work together to help the little prince govern the country? ”

Liu Yu didn't expect that there would be a little prince, that is, the crown prince, the future crown prince. For the sake of her son, the queen did not hesitate to exchange chastity for the support of Lu Lufan, a traitorous villain, to deal with the impostor general and the general of Malaysia.

Lu Lufan and the queen are also likely to turn against each other, and Lu Lufan's biggest support will disappear.

Liu Yu thought about it again and asked, "The queen is not afraid that the two generals will take the opportunity to make trouble?" ”

"Although General Mao Ding and General Da Ma did not agree and did not have a good attitude towards the king, they both claimed allegiance to the king. If the king returns to heaven, the little prince will not pose any threat to the two generals, and they will probably join forces! ”

Liu Yu sneered: "In this case, the two generals don't want to rebel, so can't you think of ideas to help them rebel?" ”

Lu Lufan was shocked, he was not confident in his own strength, and at this time he had to force the two generals to rebel, not the same as digging his own grave?

"Envoy, can you be clear?" Lu Lufan could only look at Liu Yu for help. (To be continued......)
