Chapter 124: Farewell

After ten years of dormancy, the Xiongnu waited for the opportunity to make a comeback, coinciding with the death of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the situation of the Han Dynasty was unstable, and the general Wusun was trapped in the country of Shache for ten thousand years. As the so-called internal and external troubles emerge one after another, and all this is not the worst, Weng Guimi went to the border to fight side by side with Chang Hui, but unexpectedly fell off the horse in an accident, because of the old disease, the whole person quickly collapsed.

Weng Guimi was escorted back to the grassland to recuperate, and the elders and ministers of the court did not dare to take it lightly when they received the news, and they all planned what to do next. Although Wusun can have today's pro-Han policy of Weng Guimi, but now the Han itself is difficult to protect, and it is unknown whether it can continue the glory of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the future.

The Xiongnu and Wusun have a deep grudge, in the past, Wusun relied on the Han as a backer, the Huns did not dare to attack rashly, but now the situation has changed greatly, the Huns have gradually recovered their vitality, as the saying goes, the far water can not save the near fire, if the Huns really fought hard, Wusun may not be able to count on the assistance of the Han.

In terms of military strength, Wusun may be able to compete with the Xiongnu a little, but if it is more ferocious than the combat experience, Wusun's soldiers are definitely not the opponent of the Hun cavalry. Especially after losing the backer of the Great Han, Weng Guimi's body is getting worse day by day, and if it goes on like this, Wusun's situation is really worrying.

Many ministers remembered the last words of the previous king, after Weng Guimi abdicated, he would be succeeded by Nimi. In other words, Nimi is the king of the grassland in the future, and depending on Weng Guimi's physical condition, the day of abdication will come soon. Regardless of the opposition of the ministers, Liu Ye insisted on sending the materials from the treasury to the Han army stationed in the Western Regions, and if she continued like this, Wusun's losses would become greater and greater.

This battle has not been able to tell the winner for a long time, but I am afraid that all the materials sent out will be lost, and when the Xiongnu occupy Wusun, they realize that it is in vain, and it is really regretful. Weng Guimi is seriously ill, and the power of the court is held by Liu Ye, if you want to deprive her of power, the only way is to have a new king.

Seeing the wind and rudder, the person who sees the rudder can only share the blessings, and there will be no difficulties together, whoever can let him live a good life is his king, seeing that Weng Guimi's general trend has gone, these people with active minds can't care about hiding their intentions.

Of course, there are also some courtiers who are loyal to Weng Guimi and Liu Ye, they only recognize the truth of drinking water and thinking of the source, and believe that after Wusun gets through this difficulty, he will still have a good future. They did not agree to have a new king at such a time, and doubted that Nimi had the ability to govern Wusun well.

Gradually, the forces in Korea and China were divided into two factions, one faction continued to support Weng Guimi and Liu Ye, and the other faction turned to the new regime in Nimi. Nimi showed his loyalty to Liu Ye at first, it was indeed afraid of arousing her defense, which would not be conducive to his succession to the throne in the future, but he didn't expect that even God was helping him, and all kinds of signs announced that the time that belonged to him had come, and he didn't know how long he would have to wait to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and after weighing the pros and cons, Nimi decided to take advantage of the situation to seize power.

The mud seized power, and the happiest person was Xu Qige, and God knows that she was waiting for this day. Before, Nimi always couldn't talk about the heat, but now that it's finally time, how can she not be happy! The Han side is too busy to take care of himself, he has been trapped in the country of Shache for ten thousand years and can't come back, Chang Hui is struggling to deal with the Hun soldiers at the border, Weng Guimi came back half-dead to recuperate, and now Liu Ye just has empty royal power, and there is no powerful person around him, but he is just in the name of the mud and goes along with the expectations of the public, what does Liu Ye do to fight with the mud!

However, these are not enough reasons for Nimi to ascend the throne, and it does not mean that there are no obstacles on the road to Nimi's kingship, if Weng Guimi insists on going against Nimi, it will still be very troublesome. Inevitably dreaming a lot at night, Xu Qige decided to go out in person to pave the way for the mud.

Weng Guimi, who woke up from a coma, opened his eyes with difficulty, looked at the familiar scene, and knew that he had returned. However, Wusun's soldiers are still fighting bloody battles on the front line, how can he come back to recuperate, even if he dies, he must be with the soldiers, he can't be a deserter first.

"King, Mrs. Zuo asks to see you!" The guards couldn't help but pestered him again and again, and when he saw Weng Guimi waking up, he tentatively asked for instructions.

"Oh, Mrs. Zuo......" Weng Guimi pursed his dry lips, his voice was extremely hoarse, "Is there anything important about her, I want to see the queen, you go and ask the queen to see me." ”

"However, Mrs. Zuo has been waiting for an hour, and she said that she will not leave if she can't see the king." The guard said in embarrassment.

"Okay, let her in." Weng Guimi replied helplessly.

Xu Qige rushed into the yurt, looked at Weng Guimi with a sallow face on the bed, and suddenly remembered the scene when Jun Xumi was dying many years ago. The sadness passed in a moment, replaced by happiness, when their mother and son were isolated, the first king passed the throne to Weng Guimi, and let Weng Guimi temporarily keep the throne of the mud, who had thought that he was addicted to being the king, and he didn't plan to return the throne, and even thought about passing the throne to his son.

Retribution, retribution, he finally has today, who made him move his selfishness, just listening to Liu Ye's woman's words, and treating their mother and son as enemies.

"Mrs. Zuo, are you here......" Weng Guimi sat up with his arms supporting the bed, raised his heavy eyelids, and glanced at Xu Qige with a complicated expression.

Xu Qige hurriedly retracted his thoughts, squeezed out a hypocritical smile, and bowed: "The concubine visited the king, I don't know how the king has been in good health recently?" ”

"Well, it's much better." Weng Guimi didn't need to ask and knew what Su Qige was looking for him, but he was worried that if Nimi succeeded to the throne, it would be unfavorable to Liu Ye and Yuan Guimi, so he had to discuss it with Liu Ye in advance. I thought I could support myself for a few years, but I didn't expect to be unable to survive so soon. It seems that he still can't resist the will of God, and God wants him to fulfill his promise to return the throne to Nimi.

"King, before you went to the border, your body was still strong, why didn't you see it for months, and you became like this!" Xu Qige said sadly, pretending to take out a silk handkerchief and wipe the corners of his eyes, "I don't know why, seeing you like this, I think of how strong the first king used to be when he was seriously ill, the real king of the grassland!" But even if he is a king, he can't fight with God, and I watched his body collapse day by day, until he died, leaving behind our mother and son. ”

Xu Qige said, walked in front of Weng Guimi, and sat on the edge of the bed: "Do you know the king? When the first king returned to the west, the concubines only felt that the sky had fallen, and if it weren't for the mud, I really wanted to go with him. I know that in this world, no one will cherish me for being good to me except the previous king. But for the sake of me and the flesh and blood of the former king, even if I grit my teeth and hold on, I can't really seek death! ”

"What you said is that the first king wants your mother and son to live well, if you can't think about it, the spirit of the first king in heaven will not rest in peace." Weng Guimi barely coped, his eyes glanced out of the tent, he really wanted to see Liu Ye now.

"What do you see, King?" Xu Qige looked back at him along his gaze, shook his head, and said, "Do you think it's hard to face me, and you can't wait for someone to rescue you?" ”

Weng Guimi was a little displeased and said: "This king is unwell, Mrs. Zuo should go back first!" ”

"King, you and I have been a nominal husband and wife for so many years, why are you so cold to me?" Xu Qige turned a deaf ear, looking very hurt, "I know that in your heart, there will always be only the queen, for the queen, you can disown Yuan Guimi's biological mother, for the queen, you can give the entire Wusun to her, for the queen, you can also be a treacherous." ”

"Presumptuous!" Weng Guimi patted the bed and shouted angrily, "Mrs. Zuo, Hugh is talking nonsense." ”

"Nonsense?" Xu Qige glared, stood up and pointed at Weng Guimi condescendingly and shouted, "Isn't it? Am I wrong? It is a fact that you want to occupy the throne that belongs to the mud despite the last wishes of the previous king! Do you dare to say you've never had such a thought? ”

"I know when this king will pass on the throne to Nimi, and I don't need you to teach this king what to do!" Weng Guimi glanced at her coldly, "It's Mrs. Zuo, it's good that you make a preemptive move, even a ten-year-old child will not be spared, and the grass and trees will be in vain." ”

"This, this is all forced by you!" Xu Qige said angrily, "For so many years, you have turned a blind eye to our mother and son, cultivated Wannian to be your confidant, but never thought of promoting Nimi, don't forget that Nimi is the king of Wusun, he is a thing for ten thousand years, but he is just a Han person, not even a person from the Western Regions!" ”

"Wan Nian went to the country of Shache, and you pretended to let the mud enter the court on the surface, but in fact you didn't give him any power at all. As soon as you have something, give the national seal to Liu Ye, what does she know as a woman, what can she do for Wusun? ”

"Mrs. Zuo!" Weng Guimi reprimanded loudly, "You are an ungrateful person, you have always been against the queen, using those indiscriminate means to deal with her, but everything you do is harm to others and yourself." You yourself know very well, why did the first king want me to succeed to the throne, it was not to protect your mother and son, the most difficult time of Wusun has passed, your mother and son are living well unharmed, you treated the queen so harshly in the past, and the queen still relieved her past suspicions with you and treated you many times. But you are always a villain, always thinking that others are calculating you and making enemies of you everywhere. ”

"The queen, she is a woman who has done her best for Wusun, her dedication to Wusun is obvious to all, what about you, what have you done over the years, in addition to telling the truth behind your back, what else will you do? Ahem...... Ahem......" Weng Guimi shouted excitedly, "Even if this king and queen thought about passing on the throne to their children, they were forced by you, you don't remember our contributions, forget it, and try to force us to a dead end, why can't you compare your heart with your heart and think about it for us." ”

"Behold, you confessed, you finally confessed." Xu Qige seemed to have grasped an important handle, and smiled triumphantly, "You have thought so from the beginning, you deceived the former king to win his trust, it was nothing more than for your own selfish desires, you never thought of returning the throne, this is your true intention." Such a despicable person, you actually bite back, saying that I forced you, saying that I can't compare my heart with my heart. ”

"Okay, let's stop arguing, it's useless to say anything now, no one can understand the other." Weng Guimi raised his hand to stop her from continuing, "I can pass the throne to Nimi, and the queen and I are not rare about this throne at all, but I have conditions, I want you and Nimi to promise that you and Nimi will not embarrass the queen and my three children in the future, Mrs. Zuo, can you find me a guarantee?" If you could, I wouldn't hesitate to elect Nimi as king! Of course, I still have to promise me! ”

Xu Qige was stunned: "Are you really willing to pass on the throne to Nimi?" ”

"If you can guarantee the stability of my family in the future, I am naturally willing, I promised the first king that he would be succeeded by Nimi in the future, if it weren't for your slander of Yuan Guimi and the intention to be unfavorable to him, I would have done it a long time ago." Weng Guimi looked directly into Xu Qige's eyes, "What, can you guarantee it?" Can you take the place of Nimi together with the guarantee? ”

"This ......" Xu Qige hesitated, she knew that she had to pretend to be decent even if she was pretending, but she also knew that after Nimi succeeded to the throne, she would definitely not let go of Liu Ye and Yuan Guimi, they were always his biggest threat.

Seeing Su Qige's hesitation, Weng Guimi smiled bitterly: "You can't even pretend to be pretending, it can be seen what your true intentions are!" Mrs. Zuo, the queen and I worked hard to govern Wusun, not asking for anything else, only worry-free in the future, but you and Nimi are narrow-minded and refuse to let us go! How do you make me willingly pass the throne to those who count on us at all times! ”

"No, it's not like that, I'm not posturing, I'm just wondering if what you're saying is true." Xu Qige hurriedly defended, "Why do you say that Mi'er and I are narrow-minded, if you want to say that you are narrow-minded, you should also say that it is Liu Ye, that woman has a lot of eyes all day long, and no one can compare to her when it comes to calculation." ”

"That's enough, you're not qualified to talk about her, you can't even compare to a hair of her!" Weng Guimi's airway.

"Yes, yes, I can't even compare to a single hair of her, she is your sweetheart, what am I, I'm just a burden left by your cousin." Xu Qige's face turned blue with anger, and he suddenly remembered something, raised the corners of his mouth and laughed, "Great King, this good queen of yours, do you know how many good things she has done behind your back?" Hmph, you think she is a treasure, people only treat you as a grass, and even your father is worthless. ”

"Shut up, you shrew, you don't even let go of the old virtuous king. Ahem......"

"Hehe, don't get excited, you haven't heard me finish yet!" Xu Qige said proudly, "I promise that what I said this time is not half a lie, your king, listen well, I will tell you about the good things that your good queen has done." When the old sage king was critically ill, she was afraid that you would not have the heart to fight when she received the news, so no one was allowed to report it, and when the old sage king was dying, she still kept it a secret, knowing that the old man wanted to see his son for the last time, but she was still ruthless and did not let you meet. In the end, the old sage king died, and she simply kept it a secret......"

Seeing Weng Guimi's drastic change in expression, Xu Qige smiled even more heartily: "That's right, the old sage king has already returned to the west, do you still think that he can wait until you come back with that breath?" Your good queen is really ruthless, and she is so unwilling to let the old man go, but she is also thinking about Wusun when she does this! Alas, I thought that if I had called you back earlier, maybe you would not have been injured, and you would have been able to continue to be the king in peace, and you could see the old man for the last time. Tsk, the queen is so good, what a wonder! As long as she is still the queen, what does it matter if the others are dead or alive! ”

"Get out, you get me out!" Weng Guimi pointed to the door and roared.

"Yes, I know, if you don't tell me to leave, I don't want to stay here anymore." Xu Qige snorted, "I want to see how long you can last, is it possible that you really want to pass the throne to that ten-year-old little hairy boy, dream about you, at present, most of the ministers in the court and the central government support Nimi to be the king, and it is difficult to recover the situation with your queen." If you don't want to be infamous for treachery, it's best not to have crooked thoughts, otherwise God will not only punish you, but also your descendants, and advise you to accumulate some virtue for future generations! ”

"Get out, you get out of ...... for me" Weng Guimi shouted with all his might, and couldn't help coughing again.

Xu Qige twisted her ass and walked out of the yurt, just bumping into Liu Ye, her face suddenly became uncomfortable, but she didn't want to show weakness to Liu Ye, so she walked away with her head held high.

Liu Ye felt bad, and hurriedly rushed in, only to see Weng Guimi lying on the head of the bed coughing, and there were still a few blood stains on the ground.

"King ......" Liu Ye burst into tears, and rushed forward to hug Weng Guimi, "King, don't be angry, don't be angry, take care of your body, it's not worth being angry with that kind of person." ”

When Weng Guimi saw Liu Ye, his mood calmed down a little, and he smiled weakly: "Queen, you're here!" ”

Liu Ye wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a silk handkerchief, and frowned distressedly: "King, you lie down first, I will call Qingling here, Master Shi will go and invite the old gourd, he will definitely be able to heal your injuries." ”

Seeing that Liu Ye was leaving, Weng Guimi hurriedly took her hand and asked breathlessly, "Don't go, I have something to say to you......"

"Okay, okay, I'm not leaving, king, don't worry, speak slowly......" Liu Ye hugged Weng Guimi, who couldn't sit steadily, and his eyes began to dissipate, and tears came out of his eyes.

"Don't cry, Ye'er, don't cry......" Weng Guimi wanted to wipe away her tears, but he really couldn't exert any strength, "Ye'er, I'm most afraid of seeing you cry, I don't know what to do when you cry......"

"King, I didn't cry." Liu Ye turned around to wipe away his tears and gave him a smile, "Look, I'm not doing well!" ”

Weng Guimi smiled and nodded: "Yes, you look the best when you smile, promise me, no matter what happens in the future, don't cry, my queen is the strongest woman in the world." ”

Liu Ye nodded again and again, Weng Guimi sighed, and said: "I'm really useless, I can't protect you for the rest of your life, Ye'er, after I leave, you can only rely on yourself......"

"King, don't say that, you're fine, you'll be fine, we'll go to Moon Bay to watch the sunrise together. You promised me that we would go together......"

"I'm sorry, Queen, I can't do what I promised you, and I'm afraid I'll disappoint you this time." Weng Guimi's eyes were full of guilt, "I hope you can forgive me, I have done many things in my life that I am sorry for you, if I can get your forgiveness, I will have no regrets." ”

"My lord, I owe you more, so what right do I have to forgive you! Don't talk about this, Qingling and Lao Hulu are coming soon, you will be fine. ”

"No, I can't hold on, Queen, can you accompany me and accompany me through the last part of my life......" Weng Guimi snuggled in Liu Ye's arms and said with satisfaction, "God treats me well, and I can close my eyes in the arms of the most beloved woman, which is the happiest thing in my life." ”

"No, Suo Lang, don't, I don't want you to leave me......" Liu Ye hugged him tightly and begged, "Don't leave me, Suo Lang, don't give up, think about Yuan'er, Yuan'er is looking forward to you playing with him every day...... And the old king, he is still looking forward to you coming to see him with the good news of victory......"

"Well, I know, I know you're all for my good ......" Weng Guimi's voice became lower and lower, and his eyes were about to open, "But Ye'er, I may not be able to wait for the good news of victory, if Wusun gets through the difficulties this time, you must remember to tell me the good news and my father...... Yuan'er, I'll leave it to you, Wusun, I'll please, no matter what your decision is in the future, I will support you and support you......"

"Suo Lang, Suo Lang ......" Liu Ye called softly, looking at Weng Guimi who closed his eyes with teary eyes, and could no longer hear his response.
