I saw that at the front of the Tu'an army, there was a man in fur and black armor, after seeing Zhou Xin approaching on horseback, he saluted Zhou Xin, and then asked cautiously with a nervous face:

"General Zhou, what is the important matter for you to lead your troops to my Tu'an this time? Our country should not have sinned against you, right? ”

Zhou Xin also recognized this Tu'an General Jin at this time, but at this time he was obviously on the strong side, so he sat down on his horse steadily, looked down at General Jin and said:

"I haven't had anything to do recently, so I want to inspect the alien tribes around me to see if you can live in peace and if there is any situation where you can take action against the people of my Qin country."

Zhou Xin's words aroused the vigilance of General Tu'an, and carefully considered Zhou Xin's words, for fear that Zhou Xin was here to find trouble, and after organizing the language in his mind, he cautiously replied:

"The general laughed, how dare we make a move against the people of the Qin State. We, Tu'an, have always made a living by planting and grazing, and will never do such plundering things as the Huns. ”

But Zhou Xin did have a cold face, staring at General Tu'an, until General Jin's stared eyes began to dodge, and then asked word by word:

"Are you sure it's all the time? How have I heard from people in the neighborhood that you have taken prisoners of the natives, and that you seem to have sacrificed to your gods other than slaves? ”

General Jin looked at Zhou Xin's cold face, and after hearing Zhou Xin's words, he immediately leaned over and explained in fear:

"General Wang, that's all in the past, all the people we kidnapped are Yan people, since Daqin occupied Yan State, we have never gone south again, and we have been diligently planting and grazing here."

After finishing speaking, General Jin kept looking at Zhou Xin prayingly, he knew that the person in front of him could decide the survival of their Tu'an, and he hoped that Zhou Xin would be able to listen to his explanation, and at the same time, he also had the idea that once Zhou Xin continued to trouble Tu'an, he would die with Zhou Xin.

But Zhou Xin did not stop there, at this time he still needs to continue to brush the hearts of the people of Yandi, at this time just to fight the Xiongnu has no effect, so he hit the idea on these abducted original Yan people, plus now it is necessary to deter the small tribe, let it be used by him, and there is today's trip.

So he continued to say with an aggressive attitude:

"Really? However, the current Yan people are also my Great Qin people, and I also heard that you have a lot of Great Qin people imprisoned here, do you need to give me an explanation today? Otherwise, I don't think you can afford the consequences. ”

General Jin's face kept changing at this time, he was not qualified to make a decision on behalf of the king in this kind of matter, and when he was hesitating to kill Zhou Xin, suddenly the army behind him gave way.

A middle-aged man in a luxurious costume walked out, and the soldiers on both sides shouted in unison: "Great King".

"General Zhou, I will give you an explanation for this matter." After speaking, he glanced around, and continued with a smile: "Look, this is not a place to talk, can you please go to Xiao Wang's residence to talk?" ”

Zhou Xin smiled and looked at the Tu'an lord in front of him, and agreed, but this move caused the generals around Zhou Xin to worry, and they persuaded Zhou Xin not to take risks, for fear that Tu'an would be unfavorable to Zhou Xin.

"Please rest assured, with you stationed here, how dare Xiao Wang harm General Zhou and cause the destruction of the country."

The lord of Tu'an explained to everyone, and at the same time Zhou Xin also comforted his subordinates, although the generals did not want Zhou Xin to go, but at Zhou Xin's insistence, in the end, the generals could only warn the lord of Tu'an by force, and the lord of Tu'an could only guarantee again and again.

After Zhou Xin arranged for the army to be stationed, he led more than a dozen personal guards to follow the Tu'an lord to the palace, and along the way, the Tu'an lord kept introducing Tu'an's situation to Zhou Xin, trying to let Zhou Xin know that they had no ill will towards Daqin.

……

"You have to entertain a few soldiers."

When he arrived outside the main hall of Tu'an, when the lord of Tu'an saw Zhou Xin ordering a few guards to stay, the lord of Tu'an took the initiative to order his subordinates to entertain a few people. After the arrangements were made, he invited Zhou Xin into the main hall, and at the same time instructed the kitchen to start serving wine and food.

In the process of eating and drinking, Zhou Xin saw Princess Yushu for the first time, and she came out to salute Zhou Xin under the leadership of her mother.

Even after Princess Yushu went down, she was still there pretending to be in a daze, and when the Lord of Tu'an spoke, Zhou Xin made a comeback appearance, and then asked anxiously:

"Who is this woman? It's really the best in the world, and it's the first time I've seen such a beautiful woman in so many years of life. ”

At this time, in addition to being happy because of Zhou Xin's praise, the lord of Tu'an was happy in his heart, and at the same time gave birth to a trace of thinking that he could use his daughter to grasp Zhou Xin, and then replied with a smile:

"General Zhou, that's Xiao Wang's daughter Yushu, I don't deserve your praise like this, Daqin has a vast territory, and I don't know how much more beautiful than a little girl."

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Xin also changed his aggressive attitude at the beginning, and his tone slowly eased, and he kept asking about Yushu's situation, and the lord of Tu'an also took this opportunity to introduce Yushu to be good at singing and dancing, and Zhou Xin's tone became more and more cordial.

The two finished the banquet in harmony, and then Zhou Xin talked about business again, but his tone was much gentler than before.

"Lord, about the capture of the original Yanmin, what do you want to do? No matter what, you have to give me an explanation for this matter, after all, it is a matter related to the stability of Yandi, and this is not something I can say that I will not pursue if I don't pursue it. ”

"General Zhou, don't worry about this matter, I will arrange for the release of all the people of the original Yan Kingdom, and I will give them a certain amount of compensation, you can be satisfied with this explanation."

Zhou Xin saw that today's goal was half achieved, so he said to the Lord of Tu'an with a bitter face:

"Lord of the country, this is the way to release the people of Yan Kingdom, but there is one more thing that you need to agree to, that is, your gods, that is, the big worms, must be handed over to us to deal with, and we must give an explanation to the dead people."

"No way!"

The lord of Tu'an directly refused at the first time, the gods are the symbol of their Tu'an, and if they are handed over to Daqin to deal with like this, they will be frantically retaliated by the people who worship the gods in Tu'an, and his position as king may not be able to be stabilized.

"General Zhou, aren't you embarrassing me? Our Touan deity is worshipped by most of our Tun'an, and if I give it to you with my front foot, then my hind foot will be torn apart by others. Can you change the request? We can compensate the family of the deceased. ”

The Lord of Tu'an kept explaining to Zhou Xin that it was impossible for him to agree to this matter. And Zhou Xin also showed an embarrassed expression at this time, and also explained:

"Lord, you can also understand me, if the big worm that eats the people of Yandi can't be removed, I can't give an explanation to their relatives."

The two did not give in to each other in this matter, both sides had good reasons, no one could convince anyone, the two parted a little unhappily, Zhou Xin dropped a sentence before leaving:

"Lord, think about it, I will come again in a week, and then you give me an answer, is it your Tu'an that is important? Or is it important to be a big worm that doesn't benefit you? ”

The lord of Tu'an wanted to leave Zhou Xin behind on the spot, but considering the Great Qin army stationed outside, he could only grit his teeth and let Zhou Xin leave.
