Chapter 289: Prince Ben has already seen through everything
Since Han Yannian and Liu Xijun got into the car, the little mule's eyes have always skimmed towards Liu Xijun from time to time.
As a person who came over, of course Liu Ponu would not laugh at the little mule or anything.
In the past, because of poverty, he did not have the conditions and qualifications to remarry in a short period of time after his wife and children were killed.
But with the change of his identity, the identity of the little mule has also risen, and the identity of the head of the workshop alone has made many people around him want to slap him.
And after the gang learned the news that the little mule's family had been killed before, they tried their best to win them over.
The good-looking ones in the family, regardless of the distance, all went to the little mule.
Even so, the little mule withstood the temptation of sugar-coated shells and never bowed to those who showed goodwill.
As a normal person, it is normal for both men and women to have physiological needs.
As for whether the little mule was scheming or something, Liu Ponu felt a little fussed.
Will a scheming person go to the daughter of a sinner?
And also the daughter of a rebellious prince and king?
Of course, Liu Ponu didn't plan to get involved in this matter, and what the final result would be depends on whether the fate of the two of them has come to that point, but no matter before or after, he will not take the initiative to intervene.
"How has Xijun been doing in the past few years? Can you be bullied in Wusun? Liu Ponu set his sights on Liu Xijun.
Although he really wanted to ask about the situation around Han Yannian first, it shouldn't have changed much from the current situation, and as an elder, it was natural to give priority to the younger generation.
Regardless of whether Liu Xijun is qualified as a princess and a princess, in this era, as long as she can come out and be a princess, she is worthy of respect.
"Your Royal Highness, my niece has lived a comfortable life in the past few years, and the Wusun people have also treated their niece and the subordinates who accompany them to marry, and they have never been inconsiderate, but the living habits here are different from those of the Han Dynasty, and the niece has not been able to fully adapt to it, so she is very ......homesick," Liu Xijun said and shed sad tears.
She could even feel that her physical condition was declining, and she had never had a smile on her face since she left Dahan.
For several years, people who have been depressed every day, no matter how good her physical condition was before, in this case, her body will be worse day by day.
In addition to various diseases, the biggest murderer who kills a person is mood, which is a double-edged sword that cannot be cured, can hasten death, and can also delay death.
And before that, because of the difference in language and culture, Liu Xijun couldn't find any sense of identity here, and the whole person was outside the Wusun system, and the only people who could accompany her were those who followed her to marry together, and the emperor specially ordered the musical instrument Ruan (qin pipa) to be made in order to alleviate Liu Xijun's homesickness.
Liu Xijun used this instrument from his hometown to write his mood into a sad song.
Fortunately, after receiving Liu Ponu's reply last year, Liu Xijun saw the hope of going home, and his mood has been getting better day by day in the past six months, and his physical condition has naturally begun to bottom out, although he has not fully recovered to his previous condition, but it is just a matter of time or time.
"The past is over, you don't have to worry about not being able to go home in the future, this palace is not just here to fight this time, this palace is also going to bring you back!" Liu Ponu didn't know where to comfort.
It seems that there is a bit of a virgin to say anything at this time, and for Liu Xijun, telling her her decision may be the most satisfactory answer.
"Your Royal Highness, my niece heard that after receiving your reply, my niece seems to have written to the court to hope to marry another princess to maintain the relationship between Han and Wu, and Jun Su Mi has also expressed his attitude to his niece before, and he even wants to take Wusun to join the Han Dynasty on the condition of ......" Liu Xijun couldn't help but think of some things before.
"The matter of Jun Xu Mi wanting to marry another Han princess has been spread to Chang'an, and my father also knew about it, but he was rejected by this palace, not only you, in the future, the daughter of the Han Dynasty will no longer have to marry a foreign country to make peace!" Liu Ponu's eyes were staring at Liu Xijun tightly, because of the problems of the environment in the Western Regions, the face of the originally watery Han Dynasty girl appeared a little dry.
"In the past, in order to fight for a respite and for the interests of the country, the former Han had to sacrifice one princess after another to marry in a foreign country, but the current Han no longer needs to do that, the current Han has the strength to say no to anyone, and also has the strength to destroy any conspiracy against the Han with his own hands."
'Woo woo woo ......'
After hearing Liu Ponu's words, Liu Xijun excitedly shed tears that he didn't know whether to be sad or happy.
She was undoubtedly unlucky, compared to the women who were able to stay at home.
But she is undoubtedly lucky, because before her, Dahan has married many princesses, and none of them have been able to return to Dahan.
As night fell, it was obviously a little inappropriate for three men and one woman to stay in the same car.
Fortunately, Liu Ponu prepared enough cars this time, so he arranged Liu Xijun alone in a luxury RV.
As for the people who serve, there is nothing they can do about this, Liu Ponu is not here to enjoy this time, so there is no woman in the team at all.
It's no problem to let a group of old men help her run errands or something, and life can only be solved by Liu Xijun himself.
And because Liu Xijun was there before, Liu Ponu didn't have a good time asking about strategic deployment, not to prevent Liu Xijun from leaking the news, but Liu Ponu always believed that women should not participate in the war, especially not in the front-line battle.
"Let's talk about the current situation in the Western Regions!" After settling Liu Xijun, Liu Ponu instantly changed into a shrewd posture.
When he was in Chang'an, he could be very casual, or he could put on a cynical attitude.
But as a person who is very compelling in his heart, Liu Ponu doesn't dare to play like that here, after all, he not only carries the lives of 120,000 soldiers on his shoulders, but also shoulders the heavy responsibility of annexing the Western Regions by the Han Dynasty.
When you treat the things in front of you with a playful mentality, then the things in front of you will play with you in turn.
"There is basically no problem with the more than 20 forces in the northern part of the Western Regions, and the strength we showed before has really scared them, especially when 20,000 people are facing the main force of more than 100,000 Huns, and now the prestige of the Han Dynasty has reached an unprecedented height in the Western Regions."
"But now there seems to be some dissatisfaction among the people spreading, the main reason is that I used to lure the main force of the Huns to come and let them come as bait, although this matter was not said explicitly, and the reason at that time was also to protect them from being plundered by the Huns, but secretly it seems that someone is playing ghosts, and the rumor that the last general heard is that someone is saying that the ministers will use them as bait at the beginning, so they will force them to migrate to Wusun immediately to avoid disaster without considering the actual situation." Han Yannian said a little embarrassed.
Although he didn't say some words, he could guess even if he didn't say Liu Ponu, and the meaning was already so obvious.
What can the people be dissatisfied with?
As the most grassroots people, they don't care who the person sitting on their head is, they are more concerned about whether their lives are affected.
It can even be said that most of the people at the grassroots level hope that they can join the Han.
Because the Han is very powerful, the Han has enough military strength to ensure the safety of their personal and property.
But in the process, Han Yannian ignored the impact of the weather because of the problem of the fighter plane, so the people lost a lot of property in the process of migration, and in their opinion, it was an unnecessary loss.
Although this dissatisfaction will be alleviated after seeing that the Han army can still win more with less, if someone is secretly fanning the flames, then everything will be different again.
"There is no need to investigate this matter in detail, just deal with it according to the conclusion of who profits and who bears the blame!" Liu Ponu said softly.
"Your Highness means that the high-level leaders of those small countries in the Western Regions are making obstructions?" Han Yannian was stunned, although the truth was that truth, he always felt as if something was wrong.
"Is this the case for all the people of the Western Regions?" The little mule suddenly asked.
Han Yannian nodded, if it was one or two, then he naturally didn't have to deliberately report it, and it was impossible for anyone to satisfy everyone.
In more than 20 countries, two or three countries are not satisfied with their own handling, and that is simply not too normal.
"Your Highness, this situation seems to be a bit interesting, those small countries may have some ideas, but they should not be the mastermind......" The little mule smiled slightly and slowly analyzed.
Han Yannian suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem, those small countries in the Western Regions naturally couldn't be monolithic, if they were really united, then they would have united to resist the Huns a long time ago.
It turned out that they were not united, so the Huns were able to take them one by one with very few troops, and even at great cost.
Under such a premise, how can it be possible for them to suddenly unite to do something?
There must be a black hand behind this matter that is pushing the development of the whole thing, could it be the Huns?
Although the Xiongnu had lost the first battle, and it was a fiasco, from the overall situation, the people of the Western Regions were against the Han people, and the Xiongnu were also vested interests.
However, Liu Ponu has already seen through everything, and the ruling for more than a year has not been in vain, and his vision and experience have long been unknown to how many steps he has gone up compared to before.
And this incident also fully proves a truth, the level of the stage is the necessary factor to determine the upper and lower limits of a person.
"The Huns now have no time to take care of the situation in the Western Regions, and after so many years of war, the Xiongnu are not monolithic inside, after last year's war, not to mention the lack of livestock, the Huns have almost suffered a devastating blow, so the Huns can already be ruled out, even if the small countries in the Western Regions have the heart, they can't let everyone act in unison, and more importantly, how do they know your purpose? If you want this palace to see, there is a good chance that Wusun people are making trouble behind this matter......"
