At the beginning of March, the envoys of the Western Regions finally arrived in Xianyang.

They weren't qualified for me to greet me personally, so they arranged for the pawn Chen Qing to go. However, in order to deter these small countries, the greeting etiquette is still relatively grand.

More than 20 countries came this time, and the rest were either too small to be worth a solo trip; Either they don't care about the outside world, such as several small countries in Lingnan Province, they rarely communicate with countries near them, not to mention that they can't be interested in Daqin, which is thousands of miles away.

Even so, the size of the mission reached a terrifying two thousand people. With so many people coming at once, the pavilion had no place to live, so it was reluctant to requisition Baoyue Tower and place some people in it.

In the Four Seas Palace, I am discussing with Li Si and a few people about receiving envoys.

Meng He came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Chen Qing asks to see you." ”

After a while, Chen Qing came in, but his face was angry, as if he had been greatly wronged.

"See Your Majesty, the envoys from the Western Regions have all settled down, and there are pedestrians to take them to visit Xianyang."

I nodded: "Look at your displeasure, but what happened?" ”

Chen Qing arched his hand and said angrily: "Your Majesty, the envoy of the Wusun Kingdom is too deceitful. After the ministers received envoys from various countries at the south gate of Xianyang, the envoys of Wusun State kept saying insulting words, saying that Daqin was dilapidated, and that the people of Daqin were thin and godless, and that they openly called my Daqin's house inferior to theirs...... Latrine. ”

When Feng Zai heard this, he was furious: "Little Wusun An dares to bully my Great Qin!" ”

Even Li Si, who had always been unfazed, frowned: "Wusun is only a country of 100,000 people, and it can't even reach a county of my Great Qin, how dare you be so presumptuous!" ”

When I heard that Daqin's house was not as good as Wusun's latrine, my face instantly became gloomy.

How can I not know what is the situation of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, although they are rich in products, but when it comes to national strength, they are just a joke, the Qin Dynasty was still in the stage of transition from a primitive society to a class society, how dare you mock Great Qin so much!

I quickly figured out the joints, and said in a deep voice: "Wusun, the small country of Yuer, dare to make a big statement and insult my Great Qin, what does it mean?" ”

Several people glanced at each other, and Zhang Han arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty means that someone supported Wusun and deliberately let Wusun humiliate Daqin?" ”

Everyone immediately reacted, and Feng Zheng said in a deep voice: "It seems that it is Huqi, or the Huns are behind it!" ”

Zhang Han pondered for a moment and thought about it more: "What did the Xiongnu plan with the Dayue clan some time ago, could it have something to do with it?" ”

I agreed: "It's not impossible. Although the Xiongnu suffered heavy losses, the nomads were all soldiers, and it was easy to put together a cavalry. They were almost wiped out at the hands of Great Qin, and I always felt that they would definitely want to take revenge, I am afraid that Wusun is the pawn they sent to test Great Qin! ”

Li Si nodded and said, "Your Majesty is wise!" Wusun has always had the ambition to annex the Western Regions, and if the Huns promised to help them annex the Western Regions afterwards, they would naturally be willing to be the pawns of the Xiongnu! ”

Chen Qing added: "The minister also felt that they were uneasy and kind. When they entered the city, it was customary to collect their weapons, and the envoys of other countries took the initiative to hand them in without waiting for their ministers to say much. Only Wusun, their master, was so rampant that he even said that my Great Qin's soldiers were weak and could not guarantee their safety, and insisted on bringing weapons into the city. Fortunately, the guard was present, and he was about to get angry on the spot, and the deputy envoy of Wusun relented when he saw this, and persuaded the night to follow the etiquette of Daqin, and then handed over the weapon. ”

I sneered: "A foolish person who sits in a well and watches the sky, he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, but he is conspiring with the tiger!" In that case, there is no need to show mercy. ”

I looked at Chen Qing and said, "Ignore him for now, and when I meet the envoys tomorrow, I will personally meet these frogs at the bottom of the well!" Let them know what the Celestial Empire is! ”

Baoyue Tower, the room of the envoy of Wusun.

The chief envoy, Prince Xuanye, is conspiring with the deputy envoy to attack Hu Guanqiyi.

Qi Yi's expression was a little worried: "Prince of the Night, Daqin's strength is a little terrifying!" This Xianyang City is more magnificent and magnificent than all the cities in Shannan and Shanbei, and it is extremely prosperous. ”

Xuanye stretched out his hand and patted Qiyi's head heavily, and said fiercely: "With a smooth mouth, you want to surrender to Daqin!" ”

The beggar didn't dare to speak.

Xuan Ye glared at Qi Yi fiercely: "This prince intends to give Da Qin a dismount when he enters the city, if you weren't soft, I would never give the weapon to the Qin people, stupid!" ”

Qi Yi, a strong man, was stunned and didn't dare to speak loudly, so he only promised: "I see that the weapons used by the soldiers don't seem to be copper and thick iron, for fear of hurting the prince of the night, so this is ......."

The night hated that iron could not become steel: "This prince has suffered so many white eyes in Wusun, and now he has the opportunity to become the king of Wusun, of course he must take advantage of this opportunity!" Otherwise, how do you think that this prince would take over the matter of the envoy and deign to come to Daqin from thousands of miles away. ”

Although Qi Yi was afraid of the cruelty of the night, he still whispered: "But the king only asked us to make the Xiongnu's request, and did not let us humiliate Daqin." Moreover, our relationship with the Huns has not been good, the Huns must want us to work for them, aren't you doing this in the hands of the Huns? The villain is afraid that the king will blame you when he returns. ”

Xuan Ye sneered: "If you don't provoke Great Qin, how can Great Qin attack Wusun with all your country." Wusun is thousands of miles away from Great Qin, as long as Great Qin pours the country to attack Wusun, the Xiongnu will take the opportunity to enter, and at that time the Qin people will not be able to care about each other, the Xiongnu will be able to defeat Daqin, and we will profit. ”

If the people of Daqin heard the words of the night, they would definitely think that he was mentally retarded, and Daqin would still be able to exert the power of the country when he attacked Wusun? Although the Han Dynasty suffered heavy losses in the war against Dawan, it was also because Zhao Ponu only used 700 cavalry to cripple Loulan, which caused Li Guangli, who led the troops behind, to underestimate the enemy.

Qi Yi was a little curious: "But what good is this for the Prince of the Night?" Could it be that the Xiongnu promised to help the prince of the night become king? ”

Nightshade looked at the beggar in surprise: "You fool can guess what Prince Ben is thinking?" It seems that I trust you too much, stay away from me in the future! Get out of here! ”

The beggar was ranting: 'When have you ever trusted me...... Who doesn't know that you are not as good as your younger brother, this time you rushed to envoy Daqin, just to show your face in front of the king in order to compete for the throne, and combined with the fact that you are so anxious to stand up for the Huns, you still need to guess? ’

But he didn't dare to have any expression on his face, he was scolded by the night, and he embarrassedly withdrew from the room of the night, and said with concern: "The climate of Daqin is different from that of Wusun, and the prince remembers to cover the futon more." ”

"Get out!" The night is in a hurry, if it weren't for the courage of Qiyi against the Huns, who could deter Daqin, he would never bring such a simple-minded guy!

The beggar returned to his room in a huff.
