Chapter 360: Greed and Bad Things
Returning to the National Post House, Liu Yu immediately found Jia Moro, a merchant from the Western Regions, and told Queen Moro that he wanted to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, and told him that Moro could escape from here at the south gate of Flower Bone City, and he could leave Yueshi all the way south. Moro did not suspect that he was cheating, and hurriedly gathered his men, and prepared to flee without even bothering to pack his things.
"The south gate of the city is under the control of the general of the city, and the queen learned that the queen was going to kill me, because she did not want to offend the envoys of the Shun Dynasty, she would let me go. You must not let him know that my envoy is fake, let alone let him know that I am not among you, otherwise you will be very dangerous. Liu Yu instructed.
"Young man, if I have the chance, I will definitely go to the Central Plains and return the two hundred sheepskins I owe you." Moro parted and did not forget Lai Liu Yu's account.
Liu Yuxin said, today you will be flattened by me once.
Seeing Jason who hurriedly came out with the "treasure chest", Liu Yu felt a little unbearable, after all, Jason, a good old man, was innocent. But there is no way, he can't take these people with him if he wants to go to Gaochang, so he can only wish them good luck.
"Oh, Central Plains people, I will definitely go to your country in the future." Jason said goodbye to Liu Yu.
Liu Yu shook hands with him with a smile and said, "I will definitely treat you well." ”
After coming out of Moro's place, Liu Yu immediately went to Gaochang's envoy Ural, Liu Yu's real intention was to return to Gaochang with Ural, but he wanted to make a false impression of escaping with Moro.
Give the dummy.
As soon as he got out of the yard, two people came over, and Liu Yu, who was blind in the black light, didn't bother to pay attention to it, who knew that he missed his body before he heard the voice of the woman behind him: "Honorable envoy, where is this going?" ”
It turned out to be Che Tu, who was ready to "serve the wolf with his body", and the female deputy envoy who offended Liu Yu yesterday.
"Where we don't meet in life, just take what we say today. See you! Liu Yu didn't have the heart to talk nonsense with Chetu. She wanted to dedicate herself to him, but she didn't have time to do it.
With a stunned expression, Chetu watched Liu Yu enter the room of the Gaochang envoy. Soon Liu Yu and Ural came out at the same time, and the hurried appearance of the group made Chetu feel that Liu Yu was going to leave the Yueshi with the Gaochang people. "The villain who doesn't keep his word!" Che Tu stomped his feet angrily, seeing that they were leaving, the opportunity for the future national fortune of Loulan Kingdom would be lost out of thin air, and Che Tu told himself that he must not let them succeed. When he went back with I, he immediately gathered his entourage, even to snatch the envoys of the Shun Dynasty back to Loulan.
The Urals are arranging for people to prepare the wagon. And Liu Yu went back to his residence to call Timur, although Timur did not have a good face for Liu Yue, but after all, they were also considered to share weal and woe, Liu Yue knew that Timur was either killed by the Yueshi people or became a savage again. This is not fair to Timur.
But when Liu Yu came back, Timur didn't seem to want to leave immediately: "You want to go to Gaochang?" It's too far away, didn't you say you were going to take me back to the steppe? ”
"Gaochang is not far from the grassland, I don't want to go, I don't force you!"
Timur thought about it, although he fled with Liu Yue. But it's much safer than staying in Yueshi. Hurriedly wrapped up some stored dried meat and the gift sent by the queen to her as the "confidante" of the envoy of the Shun Dynasty, and said, "Let's go." ”
Liu Yu was speechless. This is simply a little miser reincarnation.
Fortunately, there were not many things, and Timur was not too in the way on his back, so the two came out of the courtyard to meet the people of the Ural at the gate of the State Post House. Yue's guards wanted to stop it, Liu Yu picked up the repeating crossbow, and the guards at the door ran cleanly, Liu Yu's deeds of killing people with "divine soldiers" in the palace had already spread, and these soldiers didn't want to touch their heads.
Liu Yu and Timur jumped into the carriage, and the group went all the way to the east gate of the city, and the flower bone city was not big, and they soon arrived at the city gate. The Urals rode forward and handed over their diplomatic credentials, saying that they wanted to return to Gaochang. The soldiers guarding the city gate obviously did not want to take unnecessary risks to let them go, and not only asked the envoys to stay behind for instructions, but also went forward to search. Liu Yu jumped out of the carriage and saw that there was a wooden gate in front of him, and it was not a big city in the Central Plains, as long as these soldiers were not well guarded, they could rush out of the city, Liu Yu shouted towards the Urals: "Rush out of the city!" ”
Ural's face showed embarrassment, feeling that this Central Plains envoy was addicted to murder, he was just a civil servant in charge of diplomacy, and he didn't have many subordinates, he didn't dare to make trouble in the territory of the Yue people like this. Fortunately, at this time, the herald of Kuaima came over, and the general of Dama ordered that the envoys of Gaochang be allowed to leave the city.
When Malaysia learned that the Gaochang envoy had come out of the State Post House, he wished that the Gaochang envoy would get out of the house as soon as possible.
The envoy and his entourage went out of the city and ran wildly all the way in the direction of the northeast, wearing the stars and the moon all the way. Timur was very uncomfortable in the carriage, Liu Yu helped her, originally she was still very resistant, but when she felt that the bumps were not so heavy against Liu Yu, and there was a very warm feeling, she no longer avoided it, and leaned on Liu Yu's body and fell asleep hazy.
After running for most of the night, the carriage stopped to rest a little, and Ural hurriedly came over and told Liu Yudao: "There are still sixty miles from the Yueshi border, and there are pursuers behind, and it is about twenty miles away from us, so we must hurry up." ”
"What are you waiting for?" Liu Yu said, "Why don't you hurry up?" ”
At this time, Ural didn't seem to be in a hurry, and said to Liu Yu with a smile: "Respected envoy, before leaving, should we implement our covenant?" ”
Liu Yu frowned and said, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Ural took out from his bosom the covenant that had long been written, in duplicate, one in Chinese characters and the other in Southern Turkic script. Because Gaochang did not have a native script, they also used the Southern Turkic script, which was common to the southern Turkic tribes and the small states in the northern Western Regions. Liu Yu picked up the copy written in Central Plains letters, and when he saw the content on it, he was angry, not only did it say that the alliance between the two countries was a "reciprocal alliance", and the Shun Dynasty wanted to cede most of the Guanxi land occupied by the Turks to Gaochang, which was equivalent to more than twice the area of Gaochang today, and the covenant also limited the time for the Shun Dynasty to send troops. It's like an ultimatum that makes people unhappy to read.
"Honorable envoy, you better sign it quickly, and we can go to Gaochang together. Otherwise, the Yue people will be killed! Ural said with a wicked grin.
Liu Yuxin said that this is worth it, he has not entered his Gaochang realm and threatened him like this, if he arrives in Gaochang, won't he have to skin him and pull his bones? If this is signed on it, it will really be "loss of power and humiliation of the country", although he will not really take it seriously if he signs "Su Wu". But once the Gaochang envoy returned to the Central Plains with him. When the time comes, Shun Chao will regret it again, and it will be untrustworthy. Liu Yu would not let such a thing happen.
"Your Excellency. Is it preparing to threaten the envoy? Liu Yu looked at Ural coldly.
Under the moonlight, Liu Yu's eyes were cold, and Ural had just seen Liu Yu's ruthlessness, so he hurriedly retreated a few steps. At the same time, the sound of horses' hooves sounded in the distance, as if the pursuers had been killed.
"Your mother, Lao Tzu just went back to be a concubine for the queen of the Yue family, and he didn't go back with you villain to be a sinner in the Shun Dynasty!" Liu Yu took advantage of the unpreparedness. Snatched a horse, jumped on the horse, Timur was very alert to follow, Liu Yu reached out and grabbed Timur's hand and lifted it hard, Timur stepped on the horse and jumped on the horse, sitting behind Liu Yu, "Worship Lu, I wish you Gaochang to destroy the country as soon as possible!" ”
There were only a dozen Ural retinues, and they had no bows and arrows except swords, and they saw Liu Yue reopen their defenses and escape. I could only stare dryly, although the pursuers arrived. They also had to jump on their horses and chase after them, because the Urals found that the number of pursuers was not large.
Liu Yu didn't have a horsewhip in his hand, and shouted to Timur: "Whip the horse's ass with your hands, hurry up!" ”
The horse does not suffer pain, and it does not run fast, plus a horse carries two people with a heavy load, and the Gaochang people will be able to catch up soon after reacting. Timur was sweating profusely, holding Liu Yu's waist with one hand, and constantly beckoning to the horse's ass with the other, but unfortunately her strength was only tickling the horse's ass at most.
Fortunately, the chasing speed was very fast, and it didn't take long for Liu Yu to snatch the horse that was not up to the task, and he had already joined the pursuers, and after seeing the pursuers, Liu Yu was taken aback, the pursuers were not Yue's people, but the Loulan people led by Chetu. Not only was Che Tu there, but even the deputy envoy who sacrificed himself with Che Tu, and a group of Loulan retinues, adding up to thirty or forty people, which was much larger than the team of Gaochang envoys. Liu Yu reined in the horse's reins, and the retinue of the Loulan envoy had already drawn their weapons to form a circle and protect Liu Yu in the center of the circle.
"Miss Chetu, is it so coincidental?" Liu Yu smiled helplessly on his face, this is just out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den.
Chetu smiled smugly, if Liu Yu was unwilling to cooperate with her before, he had no fear, but now Liu Yu has no choice. Chetu is like a victor, who can bring the envoys of the Shun Dynasty back to Loulan smoothly, and does not have to give up his dignity to make a dedicated.
It didn't take much effort to get it.
If Loulan wants to take Liu Yu back to China, she must first pass the Gaochang people's pass. When Ural led his troops to come closer, he found that the pursuers were from Loulan, and understood that the Loulan people wanted to make a profit, but unfortunately just now because of his greed, the envoys of the Shun Dynasty lost their trust in him, otherwise they would have left the Yueshi with the envoys of the Shun Dynasty and entered the Gaochang territory earlier, and the Loulan people would not be able to reach them.
The difference in strength between the two sides is obvious, the Gaochang people have a disadvantage, the two sides started pre-battle negotiations, Ural and Chetu talked, Liu Yu didn't understand, Timur held Liu Yu's waist with both hands, listened with his ears pricked up for a while, and said to Liu Yu: "The man said that he would sign an alliance now to prevent the envoys of the Shun Dynasty from cheating, and also said that the Shun Dynasty does not need to form an alliance with the Yue clan now, but only needs to form an alliance with Loulan and Gaochang." The woman disagreed, she said that only the Loulan family wanted to ally with the Shun Dynasty. Hey, bad thing, they're taking you for a real envoy. ”
"Little beggar, you say I'm a bad thing and you hold me so tightly, are you in love with me?"
As soon as Liu Yue said, Timur realized that he had been holding Liu Yu tightly and didn't let go, and immediately let go of his hand, Liu Yue deliberately pinched the horse, the horse was slightly frightened and jerked, Timur snorted lightly and subconsciously hugged Liu Yu's waist again, and even leaned his cheek on Liu Yu's back.
"Ha Lu Ha ......" Liu Yu smiled very proudly, "Next time you sit in front, you sit behind me, I say it's very stressed!" ”
Timur angrily slapped Liu Yu's back twice, and at the same time the negotiations over there had ended, and Chetu chose a very compromise plan in order to avoid a war between the two sides, and asked Ural to take two people back to Loulan with them as an envoy.
Liu Yuxin said that this Chetu is very capable and smart, she doesn't rely on people to be rough and seems very sensible, if she is replaced by someone else, she will definitely take advantage of it. The fact is that Liu Yu very much hopes that if there is a war between the two sides, he can take the opportunity to escape.
Chetu can perceive that the most important thing now is to "welcome" the envoys of the Shun Dynasty back to Loulan, so as to avoid worries. The Urals entered Loulan, and whoever the Shun Dynasty allied with was dominated by Loulan, just as they had suffered in the Yueshi country. (To be continued......)
