Following.

Above the court.

Prime Minister Tao Qing's face was haggard.

He is the biggest contributor to the success of this peace.

He's tired these days.

At his age, he traveled more than 1,000 miles, and he only arrived home late last night.

Early this morning, he came to the court meeting and couldn't wait to report the latest situation to Emperor Han Jing.

According to his description, the envoy to the Xiongnu gained a lot.

Shan Yu, a military minister of the Xiongnu, had already agreed to the proposal of the Han Dynasty and his relatives.

The military minister Shan Yu also ordered all the Huns to stay away from the border fortress with great sincerity, saying that he would never invade the border of the Han Dynasty again in the future, and he would live in peace with the Han Dynasty.

Although everyone knew that the Huns spoke like a fart, everyone was happy to get such a promise.

It's better than nothing.

Prime Minister Tao Qing finished speaking, and it was the turn of the other courtiers to speak.

The content of everyone's speeches was surprisingly unanimous, and they all praised Prime Minister Tao Qing's achievements.

"The prime minister once again brought peace to the Great Han."

"If there was no envoy to the Xiongnu who sacrificed his life and forgot his life, how could the war be ended so quickly?"

"Prime Minister Gao Yi, saving the border people from fire and water, is the minister of my Han Dynasty."

"To deal with the Huns, it has to be Prime Minister Tao Cheng's action, and others can't do this at all."

"Prime Minister, high."

Listening to everyone's rainbow fart, Tao Qing couldn't help but float a little.

He waved his hand and said modestly: "Everyone has praised it, and Qing doesn't have much ability, only his hands are familiar." ”

That's right, too.

If there was no Tao Qing, how could the Han have had the opportunity to make peace with the Xiongnu so many times, and how could there be a chance to sign so many unequal treaties with the Xiongnu.

Tao Qing is worthy of the Han version of Li Hongzhang.

。。。。。。

After listening to everyone's speeches, Emperor Han Jing nodded.

Subsequently, he asked Tao Qing some specific information.

Tao Qing replied very seriously, and carefully told Emperor Han Jing about the situation of this envoy to the Xiongnu.

Of course, it is inevitable to add oil and vinegar to highlight their own merits and hard work.

But the rest is all based on facts.

After listening to Tao Qing's description, Emperor Han Jingdi's nose was almost not crooked.

As he expected, the Huns insisted that the war was completely misunderstood and never intentionally launched by them.

Every time the Huns find a new excuse.

The last time they lost their sheep, the last time their soldiers were missing, and this time it was the Han soldiers who urinated on them.

Anyway, every time it's a "misunderstanding", and every time there's a new "misunderstanding".

Hearing that Tao Qing also brought back a handwritten letter from Shan Yu, the minister of the Huns, Emperor Jing of Han hurriedly took it over to take a look.

The Xiongnu only had a language, not a written language, so all the letters they exchanged were written in Chinese.

I saw that the letter read:

"Heaven set up the Huns, and the emperor is okay."

"In the past, the Han border officials invaded and insulted the right virtuous king, and the right virtuous king was not invited, and he was far away from the Han officials, and he never had a covenant with the two lords, and he was separated from his brothers."

"The right virtuous king has been punished today."

"The emperor's words and family affairs are called bookish, and they are acacia."

"In addition to the past, restore the old covenant, and reassure the border people, so that the young can become their elders, and the old can live in peace, and the world will be peaceful."

Translate this:

Liu Qi, hello. (I'm your father)

It was the troops of the Right Virtuous King who ran to you to burn and loot before, and I really didn't instruct it. (Believe it or not)

The reason why King Youxian did this is entirely because the soldiers on your border deliberately provoked. (The responsibility is yours)

Now I have punished him severely. (3 glasses of fine wine)

I heard that you want to get along, which is good, and I agreed. (Send me money, why don't I?) ）

Let's live in harmony from now on. (It's almost enough to grab this time, and I'll grab it next time.) ）

。。。。。。

After Emperor Jing of Han read this letter, he ordered someone to recite it in court.

When the ministers of the court and the central government heard the contents, most of them were very happy.

Judging from the words of the military minister Shan Yu, he had no intention of launching a larger-scale combat operation, but wanted to end the war by making peace.

This time, at least five years (ah no), three years (crossed out), and one year of peace can be exchanged!

Peace that comes is peace.

As long as it's peace, it's good.

At present, the mainstream view in the Han Dynasty is still amicable.

This is by no means that the ministers of the Han Dynasty are all groveling, greedy for life and afraid of death.

It's because they're all mature politicians who make unanimous choices after weighing the pros and cons.

In their opinion, harmony is the most cost-effective.

First, the Huns had a strong military force and were not easy to fight. A rash attack would likely repeat the mistakes of the Battle of Heijo.

Second, even if the whole country is forced to win, what can it do? And what do you get?

The land of the Xiongnu is boiled, and there is no way to grow vegetables. As we all know, the Han is a nation that grows vegetables, and there is no way to grow vegetables, so what is the use of him?

When you do the math, the input and the output are completely disproportionate.

Heqin is just a small loss, and it is indeed a big loss to fight the Huns, and fools know how to choose.

Therefore, in the past few decades, Dahan has adhered to the policy of harmony.

。。。。。。

Only a few generals such as Zhou Yafu expressed a different view.

They believed that peace was not a long-term solution, and advocated launching a counterattack war against the Xiongnu.

However, this idea did not make much of a splash.

Most of the courtiers, including the heavyweights such as Prime Minister Tao Qing and Imperial Historian Chao Cuo, all supported and kissed.

So, the harmony was settled.

Emperor Han Jing nodded.

So be it.

I kissed twice, and this time it's not bad.

Subsequently, he ordered someone to draft an edict to make the matter of harmony public to the world.

This is also a regular operation.

Of course, writing an edict is a technical job, and there is a lot of knowledge in it.

For example, this time he made peace with him, he couldn't write it truthfully, saying that the Han Dynasty was begging the Huns to be close, and he had to carry out the following artistic processing:

In the end, under the processing of Tao Qing and others, part of the sentences of this edict are as follows:

"The Huns are in the last book, asking for peace."

"It's convenient to be with my family, I have promised it."

"He proclaims to the world, so that he knows it."

How well this edict is written.

Translate it again:

"My Han country is strong and thriving, which makes the Huns frightened and frightened their Huns to beg the Han to make peace."

"Originally, my big man didn't want to agree, and wanted to teach them a hard lesson."

"But considering that peace and affinity are beneficial to both sides, in order to make the people no longer suffer from the sword, I granted the request of the Xiongnu Shan Yu. I'm all for the sake of the people! ”

"This matter is so decided, the Han is magnanimous and spares the Huns, you know that there is such a thing."

Funerals are joyful, old traditions.

The Great Han lost on the battlefield, but won on other fronts.

Yes, the big man won again, and the big man won the hemp.
