Volume 1 The World Moves Chapter 67 Prince Loulan
When King Huiwen of Qin died, the treasury of Great Qin was full and the national strength was strong, and the young King Wu of Qin was already martial and brave, so he planned to use troops to expand the territory, attack Han Wei in the east, and attack Chu in the south. Harmony with Qi, Lianchu, and Alliance Yan have been the constant strategies of the Qin State for many years, although there are episodes, but the general policy direction is like this, and the Yan State has always been an ally of the Qin State. Since the merger of the six kingdoms of Gongsun Yan, although the relationship between Qin and Yan has deteriorated for a time, it has been restored at this time. King Wu of Qin planned to advance eastward, and the first thing that came to mind was to stabilize the relationship between Qin and Yan, and under the advice of Gan Mao and others, he intended to unilaterally hostage Yan in exchange for the absolute trust of Yan State. After the Empress Dowager Wei Shu learned of this, the first thing she thought of was to send Miyue's mother and son into Yan as hostages.
King Wu of Qin was martial and hated people who played tricks, so he deposed Zhang Yi and appointed Lizi as the prime minister. Zhang Yi was very old at this time, and knew that he would never turn over under King Wu of Qin, so he went to Wei and died of old age in Wei many years later.
Empress Dowager Wei strongly recommended Miyue's mother and son to enter Yan, and King Wu of Qin did not like Miyue, so he officially issued an edict to send Miyue's mother and son to Yan as hostages. After Mi Yue learned about it, she didn't want to stay in the Qin country, thinking that I have the heart to avenge the king and eradicate the remnants of the ghost country, but you are calculating against me, what do you have to do with me?
Mi Yue entrusted Bai Qi to Sima Cuo, and the group was packing their luggage and preparing to leave, when suddenly Song Heng came to report that he had seen Loulan Commercial Bank on the street.
"Loulan Commercial Bank, on Wuling Street?" Mi Yue said strangely.
"Yes, the signboards are all erected, can I be wrong?" Song Heng said.
"Forget it, it's all leaving, what do you care about it!"
"Don't you think it's strange? The people of Loulan dared to come to Xianyang, and they blatantly erected a signboard?"
"I think it's strange, there are so many strange things in the world, do I have to figure it out?"
"Can you really let it go? Why don't you ask now?"
"Don't, don't leave immediately, lest there be another incident, and leave this mystery to others to uncover!" Mi Yue said ruthlessly.
"Okay┄┄!You can put it down, can't I put it down!" Song Heng said.
"Madam, I'm asking to see you!" was at this time Pian Pian came over to report.
"What is he here for? Is he here for this?" Mi Yue thought to herself, and then said:
"Let him in!"
After a while, Lizi came and saw Miyue and said:
"Madame, this is leaving?"
"The king's life is here, can I keep it?" Mi Yue said coldly.
"Alas, I know that Mrs. doesn't want to stay, but the Loulan Commercial Bank suddenly appeared in Xianyang City, I don't know if Mrs. already knows?"
"What if you know, if you don't know? Since they are here, they won't leave for a while, and the prime minister has time!"
"Madame, don't you think it's strange? The first king was killed in Loulan, and my Great Qin soldiers were buried countless in Loulan, so they dared to send them to the door?"
"There is a reason for it, the prime minister will go and check it slowly, why are you looking for me!"
"Madame don't have to be angry! Mrs. Loulan is the first person in charge of the ghost Fang's affairs, if Madame lets it go, how can I deal with it?"
"Can I manage it? You go and ask the king to withdraw the king's order and let me stay in charge?" Mi Yue asked rhetorically.
"Madame just stay for one night, and leave tomorrow, okay?"
"Forget it! If I'm haunted by ghosts, I won't be able to leave! It seems that no one stays!" Mi Yue said deliberately.
"Alas, it's all my uselessness, so that my wife has been wronged!" said Lizi hurriedly.
Mi Yue heard him say this, so she said:
"Since they are here, they will not leave immediately, if they are not fearless, if there is no reason for the incident! The prime minister will first find out, if Miyue needs to take action, Miyue will not refuse, even if it is for the sake of the former king and Ji'er!"
"That's good, Madame, for the time being, if anything, I'll send someone to inform you on the way!"
"No matter what, when I get to Yan Kingdom, you can send someone to inform me!"
"Just according to what Madame said!" said Lizi and resigned from Miyue.
Mi Yue took Mi Ri and Meng Ying and others to Yan Kingdom. Lizi originally wanted to put aside the matter of the Loulan ghost party and make plans slowly, but he didn't expect them to take the initiative to come to the door, and he didn't know what the other party had to do.
Lizi also knew that they had another purpose and would not disappear in a short period of time, so she sent someone to watch it for a few days, but she didn't find anything abnormal.
On this day, Lizi first sent a large army to surround the Loulan merchant house on Wuling Street, and then the soldiers took the people inside one by one, and Gan Mao and the two arrived at the scene.
"Who is the person in charge of this firm?" asked Lizi to the group of people who were being captured.
"Prince Lan of Xialou, in charge of here!" replied a man dressed in Western Regions costume, but his appearance was very close to that of the Central Plains.
When Lizi heard about Prince Loulan, she was shocked, and thought to herself that she would not be caught so easily, right?
"Are you really Prince Loulan?"
"Yes, don't you think it's a big deal to call so many people?" said the man, shrugging his shoulders.
When he heard this, he thought to himself, "Do I dare to take fewer people to deal with you monsters?" and saw that he was dressed as a foreigner, and looked and spoke like a native of the Central Plains, so he said:
"Untie!"
The person next to him loosened the tie to the person who claimed to be the prince of Loulan, and Lizi said:
"Since you are the prince of Loulan, then who is your king of Loulan? Why don't I know that there is a country of Loulan in this world?"
"There is no king in Loulan, Prince Loulan is what our people in the Western Regions call me, I am the envoy of the Dayue Clan, and I represent the Dayue Clan to establish diplomatic relations with the Daqin State, this is my official document!"
Lizi took the official document and looked at it, but he couldn't understand what was written on it, so he had to ask someone to call the translator of the Qin State. As soon as Lizi heard that he was an envoy of the Dayue clan, also known as the prince of Loulan, he said:
"Since the prince himself has come to our country, why don't you send an envoy to inform us in advance, but hide in this trading house?"
"I don't know how to say this, but that's it!" Prince Loulan stammered.
"Do you have a name? Loulan is not a country, why is you called the Prince of Loulan?"
"My name is Jamal, and my father founded the city-state of Loulan, so they all call me Prince Loulan!"
"Why do you want to be the enemy of our Great Qin, kill so many of us?"
"We are not your enemies, you will know after reading my official documents!"
"I can't read the official text, how do I know if it's true or fake?" said Saoriko deliberately.
"Can you let them go, there are a lot of people here, it's hard to talk!" said Prince Loulan.
Lizi thought about it, so he ordered his subordinates to loosen the ties for them.
"Stand down for now!" ordered Lizi again.
Prince Loulan saw that the three of them were born in front of him, so he said:
"Do you know Gongsun Marting?"
Lizi was shocked in her heart, and looked at Gan Mao Dao:
"Of course I know, he used to be the official of our Great Qin State!"
"Did you know that he has a younger brother named Gongsun He?"
Lizi was even more shocked in her heart, thinking how I didn't know, but she felt that she couldn't say she didn't know, so she just nodded.
"The person who killed your King of Great Qin is Gongsun He, not our Loulan people!" Prince Loulan said suddenly.
When Lizi and Gan Mao heard this, they felt that this matter was very complicated, and they couldn't figure out whether it was true or false for a while, but they both felt that he was telling the truth, otherwise it would be impossible to send it to the door to find death.
"Is the person who spoke to the king in the city-state of Loulan Gongsun He?" asked Gan Mao.
"Yes, I was also present in the war that day, and we were all forced by him, and we are not willing to fight with the people of Qin!" Prince Loulan said in a rambling manner.
When Gan Mao heard this, he looked at Lizi and continued to ask:
"If you don't want to fight, how can he force you?"
"He has captured our relatives! Gongsun He is the national teacher of Heishui Country, and his skills are very great, and we Loulan people are very afraid of him! He controls the king of Heishui Country, and the Huns help him, and we have nothing to do with him!"
"Have you ever been to the Black Water Country, is that the Prince of Loulan in the Black Water Country you?" asked Saoriko.
"It's me! I've been to the Blackwater Country, and we also have a business house in the Blackwater Country!" said Prince Loulan.
"What is the relationship between the Ghost Fang Kingdom and you?" Gan Mao asked suddenly.
When Prince Loulan heard this, he hesitated for a moment and asked:
"Do you have anyone around you who knows physiognomy?"
The two shook their heads, and Prince Loulan said when he saw this:
"It's complicated, I can't tell you now, if you believe me, I can say it!"
When the two of them heard it, they felt that although the words of Prince Loulan sounded reasonable, there was still a lot of information that needed to be verified, and they thought that they were not in a hurry at this time, and sent someone to keep an eye on them, and verified Gongsun He's person, so they resigned from Prince Loulan and withdrew their troops.
