Subsequently, Liu Ying left the Zhaoming Palace and went to the palace of Empress Lu to wait, as the crown prince, he also had to symbolically send his 'sister' Liu Lu.

Everything is in place, everything is ready. The palace guards have never been solemn, Qi Qi stood at the gate of the palace to guard the halberd, the city tower was half rolled with flags, and the team under the building was also hunting with the banner of Hehesheng, the carriages and horses of the distant journey were parked in the southeast corner of the palace city, the leisurely horses looked down for food, and the body of the pack rolled. The rolling Yellow River, bursting with surging waves, sounded like a drum and a trumpet from a distance. Soon they will be out of Chang'an.

The emperor and empress, as well as Sha Ling'er and Liu Ying, then turned to the front hall of Weiyang Palace, where hundreds of officials were already waiting, all of them were waiting solemnly, and a solemn sound of beating was in the ears, and a send-off drum music sounded afterwards. Then came the Eight Guys Linggong Hao Hao Tang Tang sang "The Book of Songs, Zhou Song, and Guests":

"There are guests and guests, and they are also white. There are some and there are beyond, and they are ready to travel. There are guest accommodations, and there are guest letters. Words and teachings, in order to tie their horses. Bo Yan chases him, and he follows it left and right. There is both obscenity and power, and blessing Kong Yi ......"

This poem was originally written by Song Weizi to come to the Zhou Dynasty to worship the king of Zhou, and the king of Zhou held a banquet for him to practice the song he sang. When Miko came, he rode a white horse, and most of the courtiers who accompanied him were people of good character, and they stayed in the Zhou room for many days, and were received by their masters with great courtesy. Weizi is leaving, the king of Zhou leads his ministers to practice it, and Weizi will inevitably receive greater kindness in the future, and God will send blessings to him. Using this poem as a poem to see off Liu Lu and Sha Ling'er also shows that Sha Ling'er came to Han with piety, stayed in the Han Dynasty for many days, and was treated well by the master, who wanted to keep her again and hold a banquet for her as a practice. Before leaving, I hope that Heaven will send blessings to them. Everyone sang in unison, quite magnificent.

After singing, Liu Bang and Empress Lu sat on a high position, overlooking His Royal Highness's ministers, and the two smiled at each other. Sha Ling'er and Liu Ying stood side by side at the head of the ministers, and Liu Ying took the lead and knelt.

The ministers followed the kneeling mountain and shouted, "The emperor is long and long, and the queen is long and long", and the sound shook the sky, as if he was about to break through the roof.

"Wait for the peace." Liu Bang raised his right hand slightly in the air as if he was exempt from courtesy, stroked his beautiful beard with his left hand, and smiled, and the twelve rows of swords on the crown of Pingtian swayed one by one.

Zhongqing got up and stood on both sides, and there was a summons from the courtesy officer, "Summons Princess Lu Yuan to the palace." "The shrill voice is so old.

Princess Lu Yuan outside the palace gate is the real Princess Long'an, and she was helped to walk in slowly, but her head was covered with a thin red gauze silk, and she was wearing a bright and luxurious red Han family costume, and the costume was like a snow moon streamer. Although I can't see what my face looks like today, I must have dressed up cautiously, after all, it represents the Han Court, although my face is covered, the road and people can still see it, and I walked straight to the bottom of the dragon couch where Liu Banglu was sitting in the middle of the class road that was naturally separated by the civil and military officials.

Raised his hands to the eyebrows, knelt on the ground and made a grand bow, wishing, "Father, queen mother, Changle Weiyang, today Lu Yuan hereby farewell, after entering Hu, he will go to the best to harmonize the good of the Xiongnu and the Han family." He kowtowed on his head.

Empress Liu Banglu personally went down to the palace to support her, showing a loving smile like a parent and patting her hand gently, and instructed, "This is a thousand miles away, desert and yellow sand, the father and the queen mother have nothing else to bring you, just take some more Shu brocade and Bashu tea and some bamboo slips from pre-classical books, of course, there are also a lot of ironware, rice wadding wine and so on." ”

"Father and Queen Mother."

"Take care all the way." Liu Bang and Empress Lu looked at Princess Long'an who was about to travel away at the same time and said. At this time, there was no intrigue, as if they were really Liu Lu's biological parents at this time, and the reluctance to their daughter was beyond words, which made the ministers in the palace burst into tears.

Princess Long'an nodded lightly twice, and no one knew what she was thinking at this time.

Liu Bang took Liu Lu's hand and came to Sha Ling'er, handed over Princess Long'an to Sha Ling'er, and said to Sha Ling'er solemnly, "I hope the princess will treat Ah Yuan well." ”

Sha Ling'er glanced at Liu Ying, Liu Ying nodded at her with a smile, and then Sha Ling'er also nodded firmly to Liu Bang.

Empress Lu also walked over, smiled politely, glanced at Sha Ling'er, turned around and raised her voice to the ministers in the main hall, "I hope that Princess Luan Yuan will take care of the overall situation of the two countries, and you must treat Princess Lu Yuan well." "The sentence 'taking into account the overall situation of the two countries' is a little heavier, that is, secretly reminding Sha Ling'er that even if she knows that Princess Long'an is fake, it is better not to say it for the sake of peace between the two countries, it seems that Empress Lu already knows that Sha Ling'er understands that Liu Lu is not a real princess.

Sha Ling'er is not a vegetarian, of course she can hear the meaning of Lu Hou's words, and she smiled bitterly in her heart, she still doesn't believe in herself, so there is no way but to say it again, "Sha Ling'er will not let the princess of the Han family suffer the slightest injury." ”

Only then did Empress Lu show her satisfied smile.

Liu Ying was facing Liu Lu, and Liu Lu, who was wearing the silk, looked vaguely at this unrelated prince brother.

"My sister is traveling far away, and my brother has nothing else to send my sister to, only this." Liu Ying lowered her head and took out a sachet from the deep sleeve of her wide robe and handed it to Liu Lu, "Sister will open it if she thinks it is appropriate to open it." ”

Liu Lu took the sachet in Liu Ying's hand and said politely, "Thank you, brother." He put the sachet into the cuff of his mandarin duck.

Subsequently, Liu Bang took Lu Hou to sit on the dragon couch again, and made a gesture to the ceremonial officer next to him, after the ceremonial official understood, he immediately took out the silk in his sleeve and announced, "The Han court and the Xiongnu are close to each other, and the Qin and Jin dynasties will always be good, and the Han court promised to lend the Jiuyuan region to the Xiongnu for one year, and after a year, the Xiongnu immediately moved north and were not allowed to stay, this silk is the witness of the Han and the Huns to the Hetao and the Jiuyuan region, and I hope that the two countries will abide by the treaty." ”

The ceremonial officer closed the silk and looked at Liu Bang's eyes.

"I have stamped the emperor's letter seal on it, and I hope that the princess will also sign it herself." Liu Bang said politely to Sha Ling'er.

Sha Ling'er walked a few steps forward, the ceremonial official went down the steps to open the two heavy silks in his hand, pointed to the place where the name was signed to Sha Ling'er, Sha Ling'er took off the matching seal she carried with her from her waist and stamped it with the Hun seal on the place pointed by the ceremonial officer. Two copies of silk, one was left for the Han family, and one was brought into Hu by Sha Ling'er.

"Finished." The ceremonial official announced that the ceremony was over, and handed over a copy of the silk to Liu Bang to see, and Liu Bang handed it to Lu Hou to see, and the two nodded tacitly. After the ceremony, Princess Long'an will travel with Sha Ling'er.

Liu Bang handed the silk to the ceremonial officer and ordered him to lock it in a box as a witness in the future. Then, Liu Bang looked around in the hall with round eyes, it was Fengchun Jun Liu Jing, seeing him quietly bowing down and staying in the civil official queue, listening to the holy order, looking like he had already been equipped, Liu Bang smiled warmly.

"Gong Liu, are you ready for this trip to the Huns?" asked Liu Jing with a smile.

Liu Jing bowed down and bowed back, "Back to the emperor, the minister is already ready and ready to leave at any time." ”

"Good, good." Liu Bang stroked his beautiful beard, looked at the ministers below with a smile, his eyes fixed on Jiang Guan, and Lang Lang shouted, "General Zhou, where is General Guan?" Liu Bang had some momentum to raise the account and point the troops at this time, and his eyes were tightly fixed on the two of them.

"The minister is here."

"The minister is here."

Zhou Bo was out of class at the same time to receive orders, and the momentum was quite like he was about to send troops to fight, which was very powerful.

"Princess Lu Yuan traveled far away, and I ordered the two of you to personally send the princess out of Weishui, maybe you can take on this responsibility?" Liu Bang got up and issued an edict to Jiang majestically, and the heroic spirit suddenly showed Liu Bang's kingly spirit.

"The minister must not dishonor the holy order and protect the princess from traveling." The two of them brushed together.

"Okay." Liu Bang slapped a few cases with one hand, and the slick in front of him shook, "I'm tired of the two generals." ”

Everyone went out of the hall, and Liu Bang and Empress Lu also came out and stood on the steps in front of the hall with hundreds of civil and military officials.

On the empty field, the carriage and horses have been prepared, and they are gorgeous, Zhou Bo has already turned over and got on the horse, and Liu Jing is waiting on a horse alone. Sha Ling'er walked to the side of the carriage and horse with Liu Lu, her eyes inadvertently glanced at the side pavilion of Weiyang Palace, and the ladies and beauties stopped on the pavilion road to look at the scene of this long journey, and all put their eyes on Sha Ling'er and Princess Long'an, as if by chance they met a familiar gaze, Sha Ling'er didn't show anything, and still helped Liu Lu to get into the car.

He was just about to get into the car, but he turned around and came to the bottom of the steps again, looked at Liu Yingdao, "Your Highness, I have something for you." ”

Everyone looked at Liu Ying, Liu Ying didn't know what Sha Ling'er meant, she looked a little stunned, and after looking at Liu Banglu, Liu Ying went down the steps after her parents agreed. Sha Ling'er nodded with a smile at everyone, pulled Liu Ying to the side, leaned close to his ear and whispered. Liu Ying was stunned for a while after hearing this, and then regained her original look, not showing any strange behavior, but just curled the corners of her mouth and told Sha Ling'er, "Take care." ”

Sha Ling'er got into the carriage and lowered the curtain, and his guards shouted, "Let's go away." ”

It was the high-pitched and solemn "Book of Songs, Zhou Song, and Guest" again:

"There are guests and guests, and they are also white. There are some and there are beyond, and they are ready to travel. There are guest accommodations, and there are guest letters. Words and teachings, in order to tie their horses. Bo Yan chases him, and he follows it left and right. There is both obscenity and power, and blessing Kong Yi ......"

The high-pitched and loud sound of farewell drowned out the rumbling of wheels.

More than a dozen cars started slowly, and the two of them were in front. From a distance, I still saw Sha Ling'er lifting the curtain and looking at everyone who came out to send her for a long time, and finally her eyes fell on Liu Ying, too far away, I couldn't see if she left reluctant tears. But I didn't see Princess Long'an lift the curtain to look at her 'father and queen mother', her car curtain was never lifted, but she listened to this farewell poem and shed two lines of tears alone.

The convoy gradually moved away and was no longer visible. The ministers went down to the court under Liu Bang's order, and followed each other down the stairs in twos and threes, those who went home, those who went shopping, and those who went to the Qinglou went to the Qinglou.

Liu Banglu returned to the main hall of Weiyang Palace, walking one after the other.

"Your Majesty, you shouldn't have promised to lend the Jiuyuan County area to the Xiongnu for a year, Jiuyuan is so close to us, and it is a land with dense water and grass, fattening the Xiongnu, if we might as well attack our dynasty, then what should we do? They will expand their territory to the south. Lu Hou said anxiously and worriedly, "No matter what, the land should not be ceded to a foreign country, and Mao Dun will definitely gain an inch." ”

Liu Bang turned around to look at Empress Lu, a trace of helplessness appeared in the corner of his eyes, and he spread his hands and said, "I and you have forgotten that the Xiongnu have the generals of the Han Court, and Sha Ling'er must have heard something about Ah Yuan from their mouths, such as the story of 'Little Sister Mei'." What if you don't give it? If Princess Luan doesn't tell the truth, Niu Hu'er will definitely tell the truth, Niu Hu'er is not a simple woman, and when the whole world knows that the Han Emperor does not keep his promises, who will dare to serve my Liu family, and which country will dare to send an envoy to my Han Dynasty? The important thing is that Mao Dun may take advantage of this reason to attack Chang'an, you must know that the current Han court, the military strength is not as good as the Xiongnu, and most of the soldiers have quit the army and returned to their hometowns to work as farmers. So before she said anything, it would be better to push the boat and let them borrow it for a year, which is better than years of war. As for attacking our dynasty, the Huns will not, they have to recuperate like us, a year's time, is it enough? ”

Empress Lu nodded and smiled as if empowered, "It turns out that Your Majesty has already thought about everything. ”

Liu Bang smiled, stretched out his right hand and gently patted Lu Hou's shoulder, and whispered, "In the past few days, you have been busy, go back to the inner hall to rest, I will go to see you at night." By the way, are you still dizzy? ”

"It's okay." Lu Hou smiled and said, "The concubine has gone back." ”

Liu Bang nodded.
