Chapter 21: Princess Luan
Liu Bangfang was thinking carefully about the surname of this young man, Luan Ba was indeed the surname of the Xiongnu royal family.
Seeing that Liu Bang was stunned there, and he didn't see the meaning of talking to him, the young man also pouted in wonder, his eyes turned smartly, and the people next to him looked at each other in surprise. He also learned to do the etiquette of the Han family, bowed deeply, straightened up and turned his head sideways and asked, "Your Majesty the Emperor, what's wrong with you?" Is there something wrong? ”
'Oh', Liu Bang reacted at this time, rolled his eyes, approached the young man, looked at his clear eyes, and said with a smile, "The little brother is an envoy of the Xiongnu at a young age, and he can be described as a talented young man, can you tell me that it is the royal family of the Xiongnu?" ”
Luan Sha Ling'er's eyes lit up, and she said 'uh' in surprise, stared at Liu Bang with round grape-like eyes, and suddenly smiled without saying a word but pursed her lips, her eyes were bent like a quarter moon, fresh and smooth, and the Huns behind him also laughed with a 'poof', and the laughter was hearty and fierce without losing the wild and rude spirit of the Huns.
Liu Bang immediately suppressed the smile on his face, took a step back, looked at the laughing Huns, and then looked back at the Han family who were also surprised and confused. I am more and more puzzled, I don't know why the Huns laughed, did they ask the wrong question, they were made fun of by others for their ministers, and I don't know where the laughter of being teased is, if I knew, with Liu Bang's cleverness, I would have covered it up in the past, but now I can't think of what they laughed at even if I want to break my head, Liu Bang is a little angry and uncomfortable, and he is embarrassed there.
When Empress Lu saw Liu Bang in trouble, he immediately walked down the steps, walked to Liu Bang's side, and exchanged glances with him. I looked at the young man in front of me, only to feel that he was very delicate, with fair skin, not like a boy at all, his eyelashes were slightly curled, and his chest was slightly raised, and he deliberately looked at the side of the young man's ear, and there were three ear piercings on the side of the ear. Empress Lu sighed lightly and laughed, Liu Bang was even more puzzled, looking at Empress Lu with big eyes, unable to speak for a long time, hoping that Empress Lu would hint at him.
Empress Lu patted his arm lightly, smiled and said to Luan Sha Ling'er, "I hope this girl will solve all the puzzles for the emperor." ”
"Girl?" A look of disbelief and surprise blurted out. Liu Bang and all the ministers were speechless, was it this beautiful young man that Empress Lu was talking about? Is it a girl? The ministers were simply stunned, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl dared to be an envoy to be a good friend of the two countries?
The ministers couldn't help but take a step forward, and they were all over the place and poked their heads to watch this so-called girl, and for a while the minister's demeanor was completely affected by the unprecedented anecdote that Sha Ling'er was a girl, and even Prime Minister Xiao He, although he didn't follow those ministers to poke their heads into the brain, he also stood on tiptoe and raised his neck, and quietly observed Sha Ling'er from the gap between the ministers' heads, but he couldn't see it after all, so he stood quietly in place with his hands in the big sleeves of his wide robe and waited.
Luan Sha Ling'er took the initiative to take a step forward, looked around at all the ministers of the Han family who were looking at him, and then walked directly opposite Liu Bang, showing a sweet smile, and a small dimple suddenly squeezed out of the corner of his mouth. Raise her arm and gently take off the brown felt hat on the top of her head, and then hang down a wisp of green silk, the green silk is black and bright, reaching the waist like a waterfall hanging down, combing a simple pigtail on the top of her head, the golden light is slanted on the top of her head, more and more I feel that there is a beautiful halo printed on my head, the cool breeze blows, lifting the hair of the temples, flowing and smart, now it seems that she is indeed a beautiful woman with Peugeot.
'Huh? Liu Bang saw that the young man in front of him suddenly turned into a girl who made his heart pound at this moment, and he was a little stunned, his eyes looked straight at Luan Sha Ling'er, his mouth was wide open in disbelief, and he forgot that he was an emperor, and the ministers admired the girl that this young man had become, and praised the Hun woman for her wild beauty.
"You're a woman?" Liu Bang asked her with a questioning posture.
Luan Sha Ling'er nodded with a felt hat in her hand, and said, "Didn't His Majesty the Emperor's courtiers tell you that the Xiongnu envoys would give Your Majesty a surprise?" ”
Liu Bang was stunned for a moment, and was dumbfounded. Recalling the scene of that day in my mind, an official did say such a thing, but I didn't expect it to be such a surprise, and I was really surprised but not happy.
Liu Bang smiled and nodded, thinking that day was the day he was most angry, Sha Ling'er actually sent someone to surprise himself in the future, every time he thought of that day, Liu Bang's face was gloomy and unhappy, and it was inconvenient to look at Sha Ling'er too darkly today, just smiled awkwardly, and immediately skipped the topic and asked, "Dare to ask the girl is a member of the royal family of the Xiongnu State?" ”
Luan Sha Ling'er pursed her lips, raised her eyebrows slightly, saw that Liu Bang was a little confused, and bowed deeply and said with a smile, "Luan Sha Ling'er is the name given to me by my father Wang Tou Mandanyu, Sha Ling'er sounds like the name of a Han woman, my mother likes it, and the current Luan Mao Dun Shan Yu is Sha Ling'er's royal brother." ”
"Are you a little princess of the Huns?" Liu Bang leaned over and asked.
Sha Ling'er smiled, squinted her eyes and nodded.
The ministers were in an uproar again, and they didn't expect that the envoys sent by the Huns this time were actually their most favored little princesses, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl led her subordinates, and traveled thousands of miles across the yellow sand to come to Chang'an, which was even admired by the people of the Han family.
"Princess Luan, please." Liu Bang politely made a gesture of please, and the direction pointed directly to the front hall of Weiyang Palace, and the ministers immediately separated on both sides to make way for a spacious and bright road.
"Your Majesty, please." Sha Ling'er knew some Han etiquette, and she also stretched out her hand and bent down to ask Liu Bang to go first.
The two of them fought like this, but they couldn't resist the stubborn little princess of the Huns, and finally went up the steps first with a beautiful beard and a smile, followed by Sha Ling'er and Lu Hou.
"General Zhou, General Guan, you two to help settle the rest of the Xiongnu Kingdom, etc." Liu Bang waited for Sha Ling'er to enter, and then turned his head and instructed Jiang Guan and the two to do a good job of welcoming the others to the inner palace.
After receiving the order, the two of them led the remaining dozens of people to rest in other inner palaces, and the horses and other things were handed over to the Marquis of Ruyin Xiahou Ying for management, as well as some gifts from the Huns brought by the Huns, and handed them over to the ceremonial officials and doctors for inspection.
Queen Lu Pheasant, Prime Minister Xiao He, and Qu Rebellion Hou Chen Ping followed Liu Bang to entertain Princess Sha Ling'er.
As soon as Sha Ling'er entered the Weiyang Palace, she couldn't help but 'wow' and admired the glory and beauty of the palace, the treasures in the palace made her dizzy, and the twelve carved dragon pillars first made Sha Ling'er involuntarily admire and shake her head. A few cases in the hall were originally ordinary, but Sha Ling'er was surprised to run over and sit on it and close her eyes to feel, Liu Bangjunchen was stunned for a moment, looking at each other, Sha Ling'er took the low cases as a stool to sit on, if the people of the Han family sat on it, it was not only rude, but it was possible to implicate the clan in the palace. Sha Ling'er is a Hun in the end, with a different cultural upbringing, and the other is that she is a foreign envoy, so it is not good to criticize her face-to-face, so let her come nonsense. In the deep hall in the north is Liu Bang's dragon couch, there are a pair of copper cranes on both sides of the steps, Sha Ling'er ran over to touch this and that, knocked and made a crisp ding dong sound, it was fun, Sha Ling'er happily said how beautiful and practical the things of the Han family are, Liu Bang Junchen all smiled perfunctorily and nodded with her.
Visited dozens of palaces in Weiyang Palace, everyone felt a little tired, but Sha Ling'er came to look around with more interest to ask this and that, from time to time her crisp laughter, from time to time to pat Liu Bang on the shoulder to praise the Han palace is comparable to ten Hun royal courts. Liu Bang was a little tired by Sha Ling'er's startle, what Sha Ling'er said, he smiled perfunctorily and nodded yes, his heart was suddenly distressed, originally at the first time, he felt that she was as quiet as a Han woman, and she knew how to be polite and humble, but now I didn't think she was so lively, so energetic, so invisible, patted on his shoulder like a man. It turned out that Liu Bang himself personally pointed out that he led Sha Ling'er to watch the palace, and finally simply asked Xiao He to act as himself, saying that Weiyang Palace was supervised by the prime minister of my family, and he knew the layout of Weiyang Palace, so he introduced Xiao He to Sha Ling'er and let Xiao He be the leader, and he and Xiao He side by side without making a sound and resting their dry mouths. Lv Hou also followed her to accompany her to look around, because yesterday's dizziness was not too good, I didn't go too far to feel a little dizzy, I don't know when I walked to the door of the Jiaofang Palace, just about to go up the steps, suddenly it was dark in front of me, almost stepped on the air and fell on the steps, fortunately I was helped by Chen Ping beside me to have no danger, but Lv Hou still had a blue face, his face was dark yellow, his chest was stuffy, and he couldn't breathe.
"The Queen Mother be careful." Chen Ping helped her.
"It's fine." Empress Lu covered her chest and said weakly to Chen Ping, and raised her hand to wipe the sweat on her forehead, her lips were dry and there was no feeling of wetness.
Liu Bang, who was walking side by side with Sha Ling'er in front, heard the movement behind him, quickly turned around, and walked quickly to Lu Hou's side, and Sha Ling'er also turned to look at Lu Hou.
"Queen, how are you? Uncomfortable? Passing on the imperial doctor......" Liu Bang looked distressed, and hurriedly shouted to the ministers behind him to summon the imperial doctor.
Without waiting for Liu Bang to finish speaking, Empress Lu stopped his hand and shook his head, "It's okay, just rest for a while, if there is nothing wrong, the concubine wants to go back to the inner palace to lie down." Princess Luan doesn't mind, right? Empress Lu was held in Liu Bang's arms, her head was tightly pressed against Liu Bang's chest, and she looked at Sha Ling'er apologetically.
Luan Sha Ling'er hurriedly took her hand and said, "Don't mind, the queen mother is not feeling well, please go back, Sha Ling'er is fine." ”
Liu Bang nodded, raised his hand and touched Lu Hou's forehead, he was relieved that he didn't have a fever, and said, "It's okay, it's okay anyway, I will go back to see you after watching the hall with Princess Luan, and have a good rest." The two of them vividly interpreted the kind of loving husband and wife.
Lu Hou nodded weakly, came out of Liu Bang's arms, and touched his forehead, cold.
Sha Ling'er looked at their tender and sweet appearance from the side, and she was really envious of her.
approached Liu Bang and Lu Hou, and said to them with envy, "You are the most loving couple I have ever seen, and the relationship is so good, but it's a pity that Brother Wang won't treat my sisters-in-law like this, and the sisters-in-law are often scolded and punished by him." Well, I don't think that's okay. Since Her Royal Highness the Queen is not feeling well, then please go back, Sha Ling'er can visit by herself. ”
Hearing this, both of them smiled awkwardly at Sha Ling'er. What is the most affectionate, it is pretended, Sha Ling'er has not seen Liu Bang and Mrs. Qi's affectionate appearance, the queen is not feeling well, shouldn't the emperor be concerned? Besides, if you are still facing external envoys, how can you not show off your morality? Such a small move made Sha Ling'er so envious, and Liu Bang felt that she was the most innocent.
But what made them even more worried was that Sha Ling'er said that Mao Dun Shan Yu would often scold and punish her sisters-in-law, and for a while she felt sorry for Liu Lu in her heart, and I didn't know if she could stand this rape Mao Dun Shan Yu after she arrived in the Huns, both worried that Mao Dun would see through their fake princess strategy, and worried that Liu Lu would tell her true identity if she was unwilling to endure the beating.
Empress Lu couldn't care about her dizziness and asked urgently, "Does the princess's royal brother often scold and punish others like this?" "After all, I was worried and had to ask.
Sha Ling'er rolled her eyes, knowing that she had said the wrong thing, how could she be willing to marry her daughter to her brother if she said it like this? So he frowned, immediately stretched out, smiled and waved his hand, "No, Brother Wang just can't get used to women who only know how to invite pets and compete for jealousy, if the princess of your country marries her brother, Sha Ling'er promises that she will never ask her brother to move a finger of the princess." ”
Liu Bang and Lu Hou breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other and sighed that Sha Ling'er could really give people a 'surprise', making people seem to fall into the fog, and in the end, it was she who cleared the fog and let everyone see the facts. Empress Lu took her hand, "Then I have to let Princess Sha Ling'er watch the hall by herself, and I can't accompany you." ”
Empress Lu went back to the inner palace to rest.
