Chapter 89, Suffering from hardship

Jian Yong stared blankly at the flickering candlelight, his thoughts spinning a thousand times. He never thought that he just said casually that Qiangqu Chanyu actually sent a Hun woman.

Although this woman's complexion is not as fair as that of Han women, her appearance is very beautiful, and her figure is extremely graceful, especially her waist...

All in all, in order not to expose any flaws, Jian Yong could only sacrifice his life for righteousness and sacrifice his body to achieve great things.

At this time, the woman pestered him again.

"I heard them say that scholars in the Han Dynasty were all weak, but my Lord is different from what they said."

The woman showed a hint of shyness after speaking. Although Hun women are straightforward, they are still a little embarrassed when mentioning such things.

What's more, it's a baby.

Jian Yongzheng said seductively: "Scholars have also learned the six arts of a gentleman, so why do you say that we are incapable of tying a chicken?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he found a delicate little hand tickling him.

Hiss~

Is Hu Nu really so fierce?

"Are you itchy, sir?"

She is like a naughty child, seeking the joy she longs for.

In order to maintain his reputation among the Xiongnu nobles, Jian Yong decided to treat this woman and let her know that scholars were not to be trifled with.

"Ah...sir~"

"Students are not to be bullied!"

While Jian Yong was teaching the Xiongnu women, Qiangqu Chanyu was also teaching his eldest son.

"Father, I don't understand why you want to give my Hun woman to the Han people to be destroyed!"

It was a beautiful flower. Yu Fulo saw that the flower was about to bloom and was about to pick it into his bag and feel its fragrance. However, he heard that his father had already given the flower away.

Qiangqu Chanyu said in a deep voice: "If a woman can bring peace to the Huns, it will be worth it. You are familiar with Han culture, do you know King Goujian of Yue?"

Yu Fuluo was startled when he heard this, then nodded and said: "Of course I know, Gou Jian was originally the king of the Yue Kingdom. Later, the Yue Kingdom was destroyed by the Wu Kingdom, and Gou Jian was captured by Wu King Fucha."

"In order to restore his country, Gou Jian endured all kinds of humiliation in the Wu Kingdom. He heard that even his queen was humiliated, but Gou Jian could not bear it."

"The hard work paid off. Gou Jian successfully paralyzed Wu King Fu Chai and got the opportunity to return to his country. Finally, he sent his troops to destroy the Wu Kingdom and complete his great cause of revenge."

Yu Fuluo's face changed slightly after saying that, could it be...

Qiangqu Shanyu nodded with relief and said: "How similar are the Xiongnu today and the Yue Kingdom back then?"

"The Han Dynasty is so powerful that we cannot break up with them, no matter how much humiliation we endure. Compared with Goujian, a woman from a mere tribe is nothing, as long as she can restore the glory of the Xiongnu Empire."

Yu Fuluo clenched his fists. He knew that his father was right, but when he thought about the flower that his family had been waiting for for several years being planted first, and the beautiful scene of the woman blooming to others, his heart hurt.

"I know what father means, but there is no need for us to send the woman away."

Only then did Qiangqu Shanyu notice his son's mood swings. He looked up and saw an almost ferocious face. He couldn't help but wonder: "Do you like that woman?"

Yu Fuluo remained silent, silence had already answered for him.

Qiangqu Shanyu was stunned. What a coincidence. It seemed that it was too late to get the woman back now.

He pondered: "Perhaps, the Han envoys will not take her away."

puff!

Yu Fuluo wanted to vomit blood.

It is true that most people in this era don't care much about that layer of membrane, even the Han people, let alone the Hu people.

But when he thought that he had been thinking about him for so long, but that hateful Han envoy got there first, Yu Fuluo felt like there was an extra thorn in his heart.

Yu Fuluo suddenly released his fist and said calmly: "Father, I understand."

At this moment, he suddenly understood a truth: those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters, and this hatred will drive him forward.

Seeing that he had come out of the shadows for so long, Qiangqu Shanyu couldn't help but look at him with approval: "As expected, my father was right about you. Son, remember, we can't break up with the Han Dynasty yet. Even if we suffer humiliation, we must endure it."

"Because once we become enemies with the Han army, even if we block the Han army's offensive in the end, the Xianbei people will swallow us whole."

"Maybe our generation cannot take revenge, but you have to tell your son and grandson this sentence... One day, we will regain the glory of the Huns."

This is his real concern.

As far as he knew, the Han Dynasty had just experienced a turmoil and should not use large-scale troops on the grassland.

But once the Han Dynasty turned against them, the Xianbei people had no worries at all and would never let go of this opportunity.

After experiencing the great defeat many years ago, they are no longer a match for the Xianbei people. Even if this tribe has been divided, any of the three existing Xianbei tribes is stronger than them.

"Father, I understand!"

Yu Fuluo clenched his fist again and remembered the word "forbearance" deeply in his heart.

————

Jian Yong's arrival was like a gust of wind, causing ripples.

The Chanyu of Qiangqu was teaching his son, and King Xiutu here was also not idle, secretly gathering an alliance to plot.

"What do you think of this Han envoy?"

Everyone thought he was going to take revenge, so they couldn't help but look at each other.

Of course there was anger, but they still had concerns about letting them go to war with the Han army directly. Defeats again and again often brought fear.

One of them advised: "King Xiutu, with our current strength, I am afraid we cannot defeat the Han army."

Others agreed one after another.

King Xiutu pulled his fat face and said with a smile: "Of course I know this. Do you think I want to attack the Han envoy? On the contrary, I want to cooperate with him!"

cooperate?

Everyone was puzzled.

King Xiutu continued: "Although I hate the Han envoy very much in my heart, people who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters. For the great cause of the Xiongnu, what's the harm in enduring a temporary hatred?"

These words instantly lifted his height, and everyone who already admired him began to flatter him.

At this time, someone asked: "How does the king plan to cooperate with him?"

"Do you still remember that the Han envoy said that the Han Dynasty planned to replace me, the Xiongnu Chanyu?"

"Subordinate, remember."

"I want to take advantage of this and replace it with the Qiang Canal. This old man is weak and incompetent. Under his leadership, the Huns are getting worse day by day."

"If we want to regain the Xiongnu Empire, we must kick the Qiangqu down. Only by taking power can we make the Xiongnu stronger and then take revenge on the hateful Xianbei people of the Han people."

His impassioned words were immediately praised by everyone, and some even said, "The king is comparable to Moton Shanyu."

King Xiutu said humbly: "There is still a little gap between me and Maodun Shanyu."

At this time, someone raised doubts again.

"But we have just attacked Yanmen. Will the Han Dynasty be willing to confer the title of Shanyu on the king?"

King Xiutu smiled confidently and said: "I have thought about this problem a long time ago. It can be said that this king was appointed by the Qiangqu Chanyu, and then promised to the Han envoys never to go south until we defeated the hateful Xianbei people... Jie Jie Jie Jie.”

"Your Majesty is really nothing...then what?"

"There are no plans left! Send someone quickly to invite the Han envoy. Remember, treat him with courtesy."

"I obey my orders."

Jian Yong didn't know yet that someone was looking for him.

He is going through a crucial moment as a man.

At this moment, several figures suddenly broke in.

Jian Yong was frightened by several people.

The woman was also startled and hurriedly shrank into a corner.

Jian Yong turned around and said angrily: "What are you doing?"

The few people did not expect such a coincidence and hurriedly retreated. After all, King Xiutu had repeatedly warned them to treat each other with courtesy.

But they all felt a little resentful that this disgusting Han man dared to come here for the first time.

hateful!

After a while, Jian Yong dressed neatly and walked out of the tent as if nothing had happened.

"Which tribe are you from?"

The arrogant Han envoy came online again, his gloomy eyes seemed to say: I can't spare you!

Several people hurriedly concealed the jealousy and hatred in their eyes and replied: "King Xiutu invites you."

Jian Yong's eyes lit up. He was worried about how to get in touch with King Xiutu, and this man took the initiative to come to his door. Sure enough, as the military advisor said, ambition will push a person forward.

"lead the way!"

Not long after, Jian Yong came to the camp where King Xiutu was.

"Are you King Xiutu who led the troops to attack Yanmen this time?"

He still has the look of "You see me unhappy, but you don't dare to hit me". I have to say that as Liu Bei's teenage friend, Jian Yong's acting skills are not inferior at all.

King Xiutu twitched the corners of his mouth, resisting the urge to draw his sword and kill people, and said with a smile: "To be honest, this king was ordered by the Qiang Qu Shanyu this time, and I have no intention of offending the great power of the Han Dynasty."

He kept telling himself that Maodun Shanyu had endured before his rise, and that as long as he could revive the Huns Empire, he would have many opportunities for revenge in the future.

Jian Yong snorted coldly: "Does King Xiutu think that I am an ignorant person?" As he spoke, his attention was focused on the big box on the table in front of King Xiutu.

Is this... planning to bribe me with treasure?

King Xiutu took a deep breath and told himself again in his heart that if you endure for a while, the world will be brighter.

So he continued: "Every sentence I say is true. If the envoy doesn't believe it, he can send someone to verify it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out and opened the box on the table. Suddenly, a golden light shone, instantly covering up the candlelight.

There was actually a box full of gold in it.

Jian Yong swallowed in disappointment. This reaction was both for show and partly because he had never seen so much gold with his own eyes.

In the past, when I was doing business in government offices, I saw most of the copper coins.

King Xiutu caught his reaction and continued: "If the envoy can say a few kind words for me in front of Bingzhou Mu and let the big man make me a Shanyu, this box of gold will belong to the envoy."

This was the wealth he had managed to accumulate with great difficulty. To give away half of it in one go made his heart aching. However, when he thought of the possible rewards, King Xiutu calmed down again.

As long as he can revive the power of the Xiongnu, he will be able to get back the gold sooner or later.

Jian Yong's face flashed with expressions of excitement, covetousness, and expectation, but in the end he hid them all and said hesitantly: "It is not my Lord's decision to decide this matter. After all, Qiang Qu Shanyu has been very obedient these years..."

King Xiutu smiled and said: "Of course I will not make things difficult for my superior. As long as you are willing to help, it is enough. Da Shanyu has been in poor health these years, and I don't know when the old illness will relapse."

Jian Yong's eyes lit up.

"If Qiangqu Chanyu passes away suddenly, there will be great potential for this matter."

"Hahaha……"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Ever since, when Jian Yong went back, there was a large box of gold beside him.

"Where did you get so much gold?"

The Hun woman looked shocked.

Jian Yong smiled slightly and said proudly: "I am the envoy of the heaven, how can I not be fawned over by you nobles of the Huns?"

After a pause, he said again: "Would you like to come back to Dahan with me?"

"I...will."

The woman only hesitated for a moment before agreeing, as if she had been persuaded by Jian Yong and turned from darkness to light.

This man is handsome, gentle to women, and of course he can be rude sometimes... and he also has so much gold.

She had long wanted to see the prosperous man.

Jian Yong laughed and took out a few large pieces of gold from the box.

"This money will be regarded as a betrothal gift for you. You can take it to your parents tomorrow and then follow me back to Bingzhou."

Of course, this move was not in vain, the betrothal gift was only one aspect, and more importantly, this woman was sent by the Chanyu of Qiang Qu.

Jian Yong wanted to use this woman's hand to convey some ambiguous news.

Facts have proved that he guessed correctly. This woman's father is one of Qiang Qu Shanyu's confidants, so Yu Fuluo knows her.

The next day, when Jian Yong was on his way home, the woman's father also approached Qiang Qu Chanyu.

"A big box of gold?"

Qiangqu Shanyu pondered for a moment and asked, "Did she say who gave it to me?"

"She didn't know about it either."

"Hurry up and ask, this matter is very important!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Fu Luo walked in with a look of despair.

Although he was mentally prepared, when this moment really came, he still couldn't control himself.

When Qiangqu Shanyu saw this, he wondered: "What happened?"

"Early this morning, the Han envoy left in a hurry, but he did not leave A'duo behind."

The general was a little embarrassed. In fact, he had just found out that the eldest prince was thinking about his daughter.

Qiangqu Shanyu's face darkened. His level of concern was obviously different from Yu Fuluo's.

You were so angry last night that you wanted to ask me for punishment. Why did you leave in a hurry today?

What happened during this period?

Qiangqu Shanyu said angrily: "Do you still remember who you are? How can you lose your fighting spirit because of a woman?"

Yu Fuluo suddenly woke up.

"What does father mean?"

"I suspect that someone has a secret conspiracy with the Han envoy. Go and investigate immediately to find out who he has met and what he has said."

Yu Fuluo nodded and asked, "Should we send someone to intercept him?"

"What do you think?"

Qiangqu Shanyu's face was gloomy, but Yu Fuluo understood it instantly and hurriedly exited the camp.

What if we intercept people and bring them back?

Do they dare to kill this man?
