Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 238 Guishan City

The Son of Heaven stood in the corridor of the Xuanshi Hall of Weiyang Palace, watching Zheng Xiaobu rushing towards him at that time, he crooked his mouth and smiled silently.When Zheng was about to walk in front of him, he stretched out his hand and supported Zheng who was about to salute.

"Zheng Jun, do you know why I transferred you back to be a right internal historian?"

Zheng hesitated for a moment at that time: "I heard that the capital is powerful and powerful, and it is quite difficult to rule."

The emperor nodded and sighed. "The way of Huang Lao, rest with the people. Now raising tigers is a problem, but there are still people who cling to the way of Huang Lao. I have no choice but to ask you, a hero, to come back and deal with them."

Zheng was a little uneasy at the time.The emperor called him a hero, which is not a good sign.He heard that although the young emperor himself was quite chivalrous, he didn't like those powerful and powerful people who boasted of being chivalrous.

"I will not dare to disappoint His Majesty's expectations, and will do my best to relieve His Majesty's worries."

"I believe in your ability." The emperor turned and walked into the hall, signaling to give Zheng a seat at that time.Guo Sheren took a seat and placed it opposite the emperor.Zheng took his seat and held his breath, not daring to be careless.The emperor glanced at him, and said again: "How about Jiangdu? Are those Dongou people still in peace?"

Zheng was already prepared and shook his head. "Your Majesty, although the annexation of land in Guangling is not as good as in the Central Plains, it is still quite serious. I counted the land registration, and the land I got is far from enough to accommodate the Dongou people. The Dongou people have no livelihood. They will inevitably do some stealing and robbing, and have conflicts with the locals. There were quite a few conflicts. The minister was also quite exhausted, but thanks to the cooperation of King Jiangdu, nothing major happened."

The emperor raised his eyebrows and took a look at Zheng at that time.He knew that what Zheng said at the time was easy to say, but in fact the situation was not known how complicated it was.There was so much trouble that Liu Fei, the king of Jiangdu, was required to come forward to help, and there might have been bloody conflicts.His elder brother knew very well that nothing good would happen to Liu Fei if he stepped out.What's more, Zheng just said that there was no major incident at the time, and the implication was that there was still something to do.

"Do you have any good solutions?"

Zheng bowed and bowed at that time: "Imigrate to Kuaiji, free up some land to resettle Dongou people. In addition, after Dongou people moved inward, Minyue people occupied their old land, and there are more places adjacent to Kuaiji. Kuaiji County The border defense situation in China is very tense, and the membership of migrants can increase the source and strength of the membership."

The emperor frowned. "Liu Ju sealed Louhou, and the Minyue people still disturb the side?"

Zheng then shook his head. "Winning is beneficial, losing is harmless, how could they not come."

The emperor didn't say a word, but regretted it in his heart.He glanced at Wei Qing who was standing outside the hall, and remembered Liang Xiao's suggestion.At that time, if he had been tougher and adopted Liang Xiao's suggestion, he would not have the troubles of today if he moved to the border of the town.Could it be that after going around in a circle, the people between the Jianghuai and Huaihe Rivers are still going to be relocated to Kuaiji in the end?
Thinking of Liang Xiao, the emperor felt better.

"The Liang Xiao you recommended is rather courageous. Do you know where he is now? He went to the Western Regions and only brought eight people with him. Hahaha..."

Zheng was taken aback.Dare to go to the Western Regions with only eight people?What can I do there?
Seeing Zheng's surprised look at that time, the emperor also felt a little out of control.He waved his sleeves in disguise. "There are too few of his people. It's hard to say whether he can reach the Western Regions safely. Even if he does, what he can do is even more unpredictable. However, as long as he can come back alive and tell me what the Western Regions look like, I will be very satisfied." Yes. This is the first time my big man has an envoy set foot in the Western Regions."

Zheng agreed at that time.With limited conditions, there are probably only so many people who can count on Liang Xiao.

After half a month of trekking, Liang Xiao walked into Guishan City.

Along the way, Liang Xiao passed through more than a dozen cities, large and small, and received a warm reception without exception, causing quite a stir wherever he went.The news that the Han envoys came to Dawan soon spread throughout the city, and the rumor that everyone in the Han had silk clothes flew in all directions like birds.

The further west you go, the fewer Han Chinese, but more and more businessmen from the West.Guo Wenbin's language was not enough at the beginning, and the old Andrew took over the important task of translation. He communicated with these people in proficient Greek and introduced Liang Xiao and his party to them.And the silk shirts on them also aroused the envy of countless businessmen, wishing to strip these shirts off their bodies.

If this is shipped back to Greece, it will be a considerable fortune.You must know that even rich people in Western countries may not be able to make entire clothes with silk, and it is too much for these shepherds who herd sheep to use silk for war robes.

From the mouths of these merchants, Liang Xiao received a very important message: a few years ago, the Republic of Macedonia rebelled against the Romans, but was defeated by the Romans, and Macedonia became a province of Rome.Ancient Greece as an independent kingdom has perished.

Hearing this news, old Andrew and others were sad for several days.

Knowing the arrival of the envoy from the Han Dynasty, King Wu of Dawan sent his deputy Wang Meicai.Mei Cai is about 40 years old. Although he has the same deep nose and high eyes, he has a refined appearance. In order to meet Liang Xiao, he also learned a few words of Chinese and is very enthusiastic.

In the post house, Liang Xiao and Mei Cai formally met and had a talk.

Liang Xiao sent a box of brocade to Mei Cai.It was a generous gift, and Mocai dared not accept it, until Liang Xiao repeatedly assured that there was enough brocade to give to Dawan King and would not embarrass him, Mocai accepted it tremblingly.

"Dare to ask your envoy, is the big man really full of silk?"

Liang Xiao smiled slightly: "I heard that Dawan produces good horses, but I haven't seen good horses all over the street."

Wei Cai laughed out loud, he understood what Liang Xiao meant. "But why do your envoy's followers all wear brocade clothes?"

Liang Xiao sighed and was silent for a moment. "To be honest with the vice king, there is a reason for doing this. I came from the big man, crossed the grassland controlled by the Huns, and was hunted down by King Hunxie. In order to get to Dawan, I had to throw away everything luggage, including the gift that my Emperor Han gave to King Dawan."

Wei Cai frowned.I heard that after the arrival of the Han envoy, the opinions of the powerful and powerful in the Dawan Kingdom were divided. Most people heard about the wealth of the Han Dynasty and hoped to establish a relationship with the Han Dynasty. A small number of people held opposing views because they thought that the Han Dynasty was too far away. It is impossible to establish contact with the powerful Huns.They also further doubted Liang Xiao's authenticity, thinking that he was a fake messenger.

When Mei Cai came to see Liang Xiao, one of the important tasks was to discriminate the true from the false.If Liang Xiao has a problem, he cannot be allowed to meet King Dawan.When necessary, Liang Xiao would even be given to the Huns to prevent the Huns from angering Dawan.

Now, hearing that Liang Xiao was hunted down by the Huns and threw away all his belongings, one can imagine the embarrassment he felt at that time.Wei Cai was already muttering in his heart, and the element of hesitation in his eyes exceeded the element of joy.

"God bless the man, I killed King Hunxie and his son, and came to Dawan safely. I don't have any belongings, and it is inconvenient to meet the king of Dawan, so I discussed with my big man's businessman and borrowed some money to buy luggage and gifts. " Liang Xiao said with a smile: "No, I can't show my respect to King Dawan."

As he said that, Liang Xiao asked people to take the heads and armor of King Hunxie and his son, and put them in front of Wei Cai.

Wei Cai looked at it carefully, his eyes flickering.He didn't quite believe Liang Xiao's explanation. It was already absurd enough to hire a mere few people for thousands of miles, but he actually beheaded King Hunxie and his son?What a powerful existence the Huns are, the Yuezhi people are beaten all over the ground by the Huns, how many Han people can kill King Hunxie?
Who knows who these two inhuman heads belong to.Although these two sets of armor are expensive, since the big Han people have money, it should not be difficult to make two sets of armor.

"Your envoy...do you have anything else?"

Looking at Mo Cai's face and listening to Mo Cai's words, Liang Xiao knew that Mo Cai didn't believe his words.He smiled. "Is this not enough?"

Wei Cai shook his head in embarrassment. "The Huns are too powerful. With just these two sets of armor and heads, I am afraid that the heroism of the envoy cannot be convincing. If the envoy has other evidence, let me have a look, so that I can repay the king. "

Liang Xiao frowned.This is a bit troublesome, where does he have other evidence.Could it be that after spending so much effort, he finally came to Guishan City, but he couldn't see King Dawan?
It seems that my story is indeed too bizarre, even more bizarre than Zhang Qian's story, and it frightened the people of Dawan.

He pinched his waist and touched the short knife stuck in his belt with his hand.Suddenly, his heart moved, and he pulled out the dagger.

"Vice King, this dagger was also taken from Gu Luhu. It is said that it was made by Tiantie. I don't think there are many such precious swords, and there are only a handful of people who made them. I don't know if Vice King knows where Is there a craftsman who can make Tiantie? If you can find the craftsman who made this precious knife, he should know where this knife is going, and maybe it can prove my experience."

Wei Cai took the dagger, glanced at it, and nodded. "What your envoy said is very true. If this knife is really made of Tiantie, it should not be difficult to find out. If your envoy believes me, please allow me to take this knife away and check it. If you are lucky enough to find the craftsman, you can It could not be better."

Liang Xiao laughed out loud. "I hit it off with the vice king, how can I not believe in the vice king? This matter will trouble the vice king, and I will wait for the good news of the vice king. By the way, Guluhu's set of oracle bones is rare, maybe it is also from the hands of famous craftsmen , the vice king might take it away with him."

Wei Cai nodded repeatedly, and took away the dagger and Guluhu's Greek-style armor.Liang Xiao and others temporarily stayed in the post house, waiting for the results of Wei Cai's visit.

Three days later, Wei Cai came to the post house with an oracle bone and a dagger. He told Liang Xiao good news and bad news.

The good news is that he found the craftsmen who made the dagger and the oracle bone. Although the two craftsmen were not sure that this item fell into the hands of Gu Luhu, they all confirmed the person who bought these two items. Find those two people and see who they sold to in the end.

The bad news is that Wusun's envoy has also arrived in Dawan, following the footsteps of Liang Xiao and others to Guishan City.
