Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Vol 3 Chapter 30: humiliate oneself

   Chapter 320 Self-inflicted humiliation

"My lord, should I take care of this businessman's deception? If it goes on like this, I will lose my Han style." Yang Xiu also learned today that there are so many deceitful things in the market, not to pity those Huns, But it’s okay not to know about this kind of thing. Knowing it, especially in front of the Gentiles, is somewhat embarrassing.

"It's not that simple." Lu Bu shook his head and said, "It's easy to just catch some, but if you want to completely eliminate it, it's very difficult. Human nature drives profit, especially these smallest traders, and they still have some scruples to deceive ordinary people on weekdays, but If you deceive these people from Fanzhou without any scruples, if you make special legislation, it will inevitably give people the feeling that the imperial court is helping outsiders to insult their own family."

   It’s not that it’s wrong, but at the moment Lü Bu’s focus is still on pacifying the world, and there are not many foreigners who come to Chang’an. There is no need to specialize legislation for this, but it will arouse dissatisfaction among the people.

   "As for those Huns..." Lv Bu shook his head: "Let them suffer some grievances first."

   You may not be able to go back alive anyway, what's wrong with being wronged?

   "Here!" Yang Xiu nodded helplessly, he had probably guessed it would end like this before he came.

The emperor's reception of foreign envoys can also be regarded as a major event, but it is not enough to say how much attention is paid to it. Even if the Han Dynasty is now broken up and the princes are separated, the attitude towards foreigners has not softened since Han Wu, and it has been established for hundreds of years. The self-confidence he got up made the big man look down on his face when facing the foreign envoy.

  Meeting with courtesy, it is not that you are important, but that I am of good quality. This is probably the mentality of the great Han when he received the envoy of the Huns, and this mentality is reflected in everyone.

  Three days passed in a flash, and it was time for the Huns to go to court.

Liu Xie had not seen Lu Bu for many days, and was used to the days when Lu Bu was not in the court. Seeing that Lu Bu went to court today, he was a little surprised, and then he was a little confused: "Lu Qing...is a messenger after all, let's be more restrained. good."

Liu Xie knew about Lü Bu's attitude towards the Hu people. Back then in Hedong, he didn't even count a disagreement, so he took Shanyu and Shanyu's son into a pot, although it was indeed the Huns who were rude and pursued Cai Yong. The daughter, if it really fell into the hands of the Huns, everyone knew the consequences, but without knowing this at the time, thousands of Huns were killed because the Huns chased the Han people, which is a rare killing. Lu Bu's attitude towards the Hu people.

  Liu Xie was worried that Lu Bu would make trouble again in the courtroom, so he had to give Lu Bu a preventive shot.

   "Don't worry, Your Majesty, this minister is measured." Lu Bu gave Liu Xie a slight salute and bowed.

   "That's good." Liu Xie nodded: "Then announce that the Xiongnu envoys have an audience!"

  Liu Xie was relieved, but other people's hearts were raised. Liu Xie didn't see much and didn't quite understand. Lu Bu's sense of proportion was different from others.

Although everyone has acquiesced to Lv Bu's dominant position and will no longer stifle Lu Bu, in normal matters, they will still argue. This is also tolerated by Lu Bu. It does not involve issues of principle and can be discussed. To touch is to die.

"Wenhou, in this diplomatic relationship, you still need to take care of some etiquette." Chunyujia on the side looked at Lu Bu. As the only remaining third prince, Chunyujia only wanted to grow old in this position and secretly protect the emperor to grow up. There are not many ideas anymore, but Dahan's decency still wants to be maintained.

   Lu Bu: "..."

   In the end, he nodded, but he felt a little bored in his heart. Do you have some misunderstandings about yourself?

   No matter what he thought, soon, the six Hun envoys were taken to the court hall, and they bowed to the crowd in a prudent manner.

   doesn't look like a messenger from a country, but rather like a hawker soliciting business in the market.

   "The ministers represent our department, Shanyu, see your Majesty the Emperor!" Finally, the Huns in the lead bowed to Liu Xie.

   "Don't be too polite!" Liu Xie stretched out his hand to help him. Although he was young, he still had the bearing of the emperor. After he signaled everyone to get up, he asked, "But I don't know who the Xiongnu Shan is now?"

It used to be the Qiang Canal, and later it became Yufuluo. Of course, there was also the Duke of Xubugu before. Yufuluo was a Shanyu who was established by the Han Dynasty. Here, only Yu Fu Luo is recognized.

   Yufuluo was beheaded by Lv Bu, and I heard that the Duke of Xubu Gu died not long after he became Shanyu. Now who the Xiongnu Shanyu was, he didn't report to the Han side, so naturally he didn't know.

The Hun envoy took a deep breath, tried his best to restore his mighty and majestic aura, bowed and said, "Go back to His Majesty the Emperor, now I, the Xiongnu Shan Yu, are the younger brother of my predecessor, Shan Yu, Luan Ti called Chuquan, this time I will wait before When you come to Chang'an, you are also submitting your credentials to His Majesty the Emperor."

   In the eyes of the Huns, their Shanyu is actually the same as the emperor of the Han, but the situation is different now. After the Southern Huns are annexed, they become a vassal of the Han, so the change of Chanyu needs to be recognized by the Han.

Of course, the big Han didn't really care too much about who should be the Chanyu, and the previous court was busy with civil strife and didn't have time to pay attention to the affairs of the Xiongnu, which made the Xiongnu dare to be so arrogant in the territory, until Lu Bu was directly at Fenglingdu Yu. After the Fu Luo father and son and thousands of Huns were all killed, the Huns were honest. After the new Shanyu came to the throne, the first thing was to come to the emperor.

   For many courtiers, this is naturally a good thing.

After submitting the credentials, the main task of the Xiongnu envoy's visit this time was completed. The next step was to make offerings, and then the emperor hosted a banquet to entertain the Xiongnu envoy. According to the previous etiquette, the big Han wanted to reward some things. .

  It’s easy to say when you receive gifts, but it’s a little embarrassing to give back.

   "Lu Qing, I want to reward some things, what kind of reward is more suitable for Lu Qing?" Liu Xie looked at Lu Bu, he knew that Lu Bu was in charge of these matters.

  Lü Bu thought for a while and said, "Just in time, my ministers are preparing to sell fried tea to the Silk Road these days, so I will reward them with some tea bricks."

I thought that Lu Bu would refuse, but I didn't expect to give it. Many people were slightly relieved when they heard this. After all, he was in charge of the government, and Lu Bu still knew something in general. As for tea, most people's understanding is still that kind of tea soup. It's a little weird, but it's fine to go over with face.

   "Is that the tea soup that Lu Qing ordered to send to the palace?" Liu Xie heard that and remembered that some tea bricks that Lu Bu ordered to send to the palace some time ago, it tasted very bitter.

   "Exactly, this thing has the effect of refreshing the mind, repelling cold and removing dampness." Lu Bu nodded.

   "Alright." Liu Xie nodded: "I have some there, and I can give them as a gift."

   Anyway, he didn't like drinking that thing, so he just gave it away.

   Lu Bu smiled and nodded: "It's good that your majesty is happy."

  Tea is a thing that people after a certain age love to drink, but for young people, the bitter taste is really unpleasant.

   "Your Majesty the Son of Heaven!" Just as Liu Xie was preparing to entertain the Hun envoys for a banquet according to the etiquette, he saw the head of the Hun envoy salute Liu Xie: "Chanyu asked me to wait, and there is one more thing I hope your majesty will approve."

   "What else?" Liu Xie asked curiously.

   "My family's Shanyu hopes to reconcile with Dahan again."

As soon as this statement came out, the expressions of the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty changed. Although it was said to be married to a princess, most of the time, it was enough to choose a palace maid and give a princess name to the past. In this way, Shanyu is equivalent to Han. The son-in-law of the family, of course, the woman left her hometown to marry, it was still a barren and barren land, and life would not be easy, but it is not necessarily negative to say that having a relationship with one another, at least it can avoid war.

However, in the past, the relative strength was usually the same between the two sides. In order to avoid the choice of war consumption, but since the Xiongnu annexed, the relatives gradually disappeared. After all, the annexed Xiongnu actually no longer had the qualifications to talk to the Han on an equal footing. At this time, I asked for a kiss, and I didn't know what to do.

  Lü Bu looked at the Manchu civil and martial arts: "What do you think?"

  The ministers knew that Lu Bu was questioning him. After all, Lu Bu didn’t directly rage against the Xiongnu envoys today.

Now the Dahonglu Zheng Tai, who is in charge of diplomacy, came out, bowed to Lü Bu, and then said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, this minister thinks it's okay to be a relative, but it's just that the princess of the Xiongnu marries me as a big man, and it cannot be a queen, and if it is the daughter of Shanyu I need to sever the father-daughter relationship with Shanyu, so how can I be the son-in-law of the Xiongnu Shanyu?”

   Everyone didn't understand it at first, they just thought that Zheng Tai wanted to confront Lu Bu directly, but it was somewhat unwise to contradict Lu Bu on such a matter.

But after hearing it, everyone understood that it was not for the big Han to marry his daughter, but for the Huns to send their women over, and they could not share the father and daughter status with the Xiongnu Shanyu, otherwise it would mean that the emperor of the big Han was shorter than a generation. , this can't be done, even in terms of age, Liu Xie can really block Hu Chuquan's juniors~www.readwn.com~ Hu Chuquan does not have this qualification.

  Liu Xie was a little confused when he heard the words, is he going to marry a Xiongnu woman for himself? I heard that the women over there don't even take a bath, so marrying such a thing and putting it in the palace is somewhat isolated.

   Before Liu Xie could speak, the Xiongnu envoy became anxious: "Your Majesty the Son of Heaven, the meaning of Shanyu is... I hope Your Majesty can send the princess of the Han Dynasty to marry me, Shanyu, the Xiongnu."

   "Absurd!" Chunyujia scolded: "The Huns are now only vassals of my Han, and they have committed crimes several times. Your Majesty is benevolent and has never been held accountable. How can you welcome me as a Han princess?"

   Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and it was best that their princesses didn't come too.

   These words are somewhat humiliating. What kind of temper was the Hun envoy, and he immediately became angry: "Wait, this is humiliating my Huns!?"

   "Yeah, what's wrong?" Lu Bu turned his head and looked at the messenger with a frown. Wouldn't that be humiliating yourself?

   Hun messenger: "..."

   One is that I got up late. It was almost eight o'clock when I got up. If I missed this point, it would be easy to relax, so I dragged it off until now, sorry~
