Chapter 35 Preparing for a rainy day
Liu Ye saw Feng Yan and Shizhong outside the yurt, as well as Chang Hui, who was ready to attack with a sword in his hand, and immediately understood, and hurriedly waved his hand, signaling that they were all dispersed.
Chang Hui stared at the yurt behind Liu Ye, stomped his feet indignantly, and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, all of which were greeting the eighteenth generation ancestors of Jun Xu Mi and Su Qige.
Shizhong understands his feelings, heroes are useless, it is indeed a very aggrieved thing, but Liu Ye does not intend to let them interfere, he should have successfully solved that matter.
Before, Feng Yan was always embarrassed to tell Shizhong and Chang Hui that in fact, Liu Ye and Weng Guimi were in love with each other, and they liked each other and were ready to be together, but there was really no such relationship between the two.
The division reacted quickly, and soon realized why Xu Qige went with Jun Su Mi and brought Moba's family with him. If the crime of fornication between men and women is placed in the big Han, it will be a worry about life, although this kind of thing can be big or small in bathing, but Jun Sumi is Kunmo after all, Liu Ye and Weng Guimi belong to the same royal family, in order to maintain the face of the royal family, there must also be an explanation.
In addition, the expansion of Akaya Castle was a big headache for the military su, and this expenditure was a bit difficult for the already well-off Usun treasury, but the benefits from the completion of Akaya Castle were predictably considerable. The reason why Lie Jiaomi insisted on expanding Chigu City was not only because Zhang Qian's proposal made him see a bright future, but also because he himself believed that this was a major event for the benefit of hundreds of children and grandchildren.
The geographical location of Wusun is very important, and Chigu Castle is a transportation artery connecting the Western Regions, whether it is the Western Regions or the merchant envoys of the Han Dynasty, they have to pass through here. The Western Regions were poor in materials, and for generations, they exchanged prey for food, and mined natural mineral deposits for clothing.
The road of business is the inevitable choice of Wusun, and it is imperative to expand Akiti Castle.
During the period of arrogance, the treasury was empty, and before solving the problem of food and clothing for the people, he had no spare energy to put it into action, and when he was dying, he took Sun Tzu's hand and told him that he must realize this wish.
With the help of the Han Dynasty, Wusun's national strength has improved a lot, and Jun Sumi has always been diligent and thrifty, and he has a sum of savings over the years. Before discussing the expansion of Akiti Castle with the elders and ministers, Jun Sumi and Weng Guimi secretly went to Akaya Castle several times, and after investigation, they made a relatively close budget.
The budget was within the acceptable range of the military mustache, and thinking of his grandfather's earnest entrustment, his heart that had been silent for a long time beat wildly. He wants to expand Akaya Castle, and he must succeed in his lifetime.
However, the elders and ministers of the court were not as optimistic as he was, believing that this was too early and that Usun should recharge his energy and wait until the treasury was rich before moving the idea of Akatani Castle. Because, the threat of the Xiongnu exists all the time, and many of the civilians on the border can't even eat enough. If at such a time, the Xiongnu launched an invasion, Wusun would be in a dilemma.
They said this, Jun Sumi couldn't listen to it at all, it was strange when the threat of the Xiongnu did not exist, and what big things could be done if they were afraid. But he couldn't refute them directly, so he had to postpone the proposal.
Unlike the conservative and neutral elder ministers, Weng Guimi was on the side of Jun Sumi, and he also believed that the expansion of Akaya Castle was imperative, and delaying it would only delay the prosperity of Wusun. The Xiongnu are terrible, but they still have the backer of the Han Dynasty. The Emperor of the Han Dynasty had long wanted to pull out the thorn in the side of the Xiongnu, and was worried that the time was not ripe, if Wusun and the Xiongnu were at war, the Han Dynasty would definitely come to help the allies and completely annihilate the Xiongnu.
Because of this, the Xiongnu did not dare to send troops to Wusun easily, and they were also afraid that Wusun would go out.
With Weng Guimi's support, Jun Sumi also gained confidence, and in order to avoid a head-on conflict with the elder minister, he handed over the matter to Weng Guimi to deal with. However, Jun Sumi gradually discovered that Weng Guimi's reputation in the court was getting higher and higher, and those indifferent elders began to be interested in expanding Chigu Castle, and even took the initiative to ask Weng Guimi about related matters.
Jun Sumi began to reflect, did he give Weng Guimi too many rights? Think about it, Weng Guimi is the messenger of Wusun, whenever other countries visit, he comes forward, those agricultural and textile talents in Dahan are most familiar with him, and even Princess Xie is very close to him! Also, Weng Guimi is the future grandson-in-law of Elder Ubuji, and Ubuji, an old slippery head, will definitely help him establish his prestige!
Weng Guimi is in the position of King Zuoxian, and he is originally a position above ten thousand people under one person, in case the limelight overshadows him, Kun Mo, he will still have the final say in the matter of Wusun in the future!
Therefore, Jun Sumi's vigilance against Weng Guimi was not formed in a day or two, and Su Qige's slander of the relationship between Weng Guimi and Liu Ye was just the fuse that provoked the incident. Jun Xu Mi didn't dig into it because he didn't want to dig deeper, he couldn't wait to take this opportunity to suppress Weng Guimi, as for Liu Ye was just a victim.
Shi Zhong and Liu Ye had already seen the whole thing through, and it was much easier for them to communicate.
"In that situation just now, I had to say a fair word for King Zuoxian, and in order to protect my reputation, even the imperial uncle moved out. Although this has resolved the crisis, Jun Xu Mi and Su Qige will definitely be on guard everywhere in the future. Liu Ye told them what had just happened.
"Well said, their kind of people think they are narrow-minded, and the princess shouldn't save face for them." Feng Yan felt relieved, and couldn't help but applaud, "I didn't feel comfortable at the scene, princess, you should have done this a long time ago." ”
Chang Hui also felt happy: "His grandmother's, since he came to this ghost place where birds don't, he hasn't had a good day." I am angry with them all day long, and I really want to cut them with a knife. ”
Shi Zhong fell into deep thought without saying a word, Liu Ye wanted to hear his opinion, and asked, "Master Shi, do you think what I did just now was inappropriate?" ”
Shi Zhong shook his head, and a gentle smile appeared in his quiet eyes: "There's nothing wrong with it, it's time for the princess to be tough, we have endured it for a long time, we have really wronged you, if you give in to this situation, it will be weak and bullied." ”
Liu Ye breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, Master Shi, I have decided, I will never look at anyone's face in the future, no matter whether he is Wusun Kunmo or Hun Shan Yu, no one wants to offend the majesty of our Han." ”
Chang Hui listened with enthusiasm: "Okay, great, princess, you have a word, I often go up the knife mountain and go down the sea of fire, without blinking my eyes." Not to mention a mere Wusun Kunmo, the old thief of the Huns came, and I also cut off his head with a knife. ”
Feng Yan laughed silently: "General Chang shouts and kills every day, isn't he afraid that your knife will rust!" ”
Chang Hui crossed his hands on his hips and pouted: "Hmph, isn't it, I don't see blood anymore, I'm afraid it's really going to rust." ”
"Princess......" Shi Zhong seemed to think of something, leaning forward slightly, "Do you know about the expansion of Akaya City?" ”
Liu Ye was stunned: "I know, of course I know, who doesn't know about this, the little girls who milk goats on the grassland want to take goat's milk to Chigu City to change clothes and wear them!" ”
Shi Zhong nodded: "It's better to take this opportunity to go to Chigu City!" ”
"To Akaya Castle?" Liu Ye was at a loss, this history has nothing to learn from, but who said that he must follow the arrangement of history!
Feng Yan leaned over and said, "Master Shi means to let our princess go to Chigu City to avoid the limelight temporarily?" Jun Xu Mi and Su Qige are wary of the princess, and now the matter between the princess and King Zuo Xian is spreading, and after leaving for a while, save those guys with long tongues from playing right and wrong, is this what it means? ”
"This is just one of them......" Shi Zhong looked at Liu Ye, waiting for her answer.
Liu Ye thought for a while and said: "Now that the expansion of Chigu City is expanding, the focus of Wusun's development will also be shifted to the past, and I will go over to participate in the expansion first, not only to be familiar with the situation, but also to establish prestige among the people." ”
Shi Zhong smiled approvingly: "The princess is really Bingxue smart. ”
Liu Ye thought for a while, and then said: "However, those elders in Wusun are sensitive and suspicious, I am afraid that they will be embankment, and they will definitely obstruct us to prevent us from finding out the truth." ”
"This is natural, for Wusun, whether it is the Han or the Xiongnu, they are enemies. It's just that in contrast, instead of being enslaved by the Xiongnu, it is better to form an alliance with the Han Dynasty, even if it really becomes a vassal state in the future, it will not be displaced. "The division analyzed the head of the land, "No matter how we show goodwill, they will not let down their guard, in this case, why not plan more for ourselves, explore the reality of Wusun's hinterland, and the Han will accept Wusun as soon as possible, and we will not be in vain." ”
Chang Hui slapped his thigh violently, stared at the handsome side face of Shizhong, and sighed: "Master, Master, you used to live with Li Yannian in Yuefu, you are so talented, why didn't the Lieutenant's Mansion find out!" ”
Shizhong was stunned for a moment and coughed a few times: "Okay, since General Chang has seen it, Shizhong will not hide it from you, Shizhong is entrusted by the Lieutenant's Mansion to assist the princess." ”
Chang Hui didn't expect to be blinded by himself, and his mouth opened wide for a long time without closing.
Feng Yan was not surprised at all: "I'll just say, it doesn't matter if Master Shi plays the piano well, he is also unpicky in dealing with people, it turns out that he is from the Lieutenant's Mansion!" ”
Liu Ye imagined the appearance of Chigu City being completed, and infinite pride surged in his heart: "Okay, it's decided, let's go to Chigu City!" ”
