"Sir, it's a long way from here back to the grassland? Will you be able to come back in a month? I'd better go!"
It is winter now, and it has already started to snow on the prairie. It is not a simple matter to travel to and from the royal court within a month at this time. If you are not careful on the way, you may lose your life. Just confessed.
"This matter is really too big. I have to go back in person. Let's go back first and talk about it later! I still have some things to tell you, so you can't be idle during this time!"
The news that Chen Qi finally told him was really shocking. If King Youxian fell to the Han at this time, it would really be a disaster for the Huns.
Although there is no direct evidence at this time, he really doesn't dare to bet. If there is support from King Youxian, and the Han army goes out from Yunzhong, Yanmen, and King Youxian from the north to attack from three sides, I am afraid that this time there will be a big disaster. Chanyu is really in danger!
"Your Majesty, is what you just said true? Looking at this matter, do you want to ask His Highness the Crown Prince for instructions?"
Although what Liu Deng said just now does sound very encouraging, after all, it involves the crown prince of a country. At this time, according to the usual practice, it should be mentioned to the court.
"These are all things that have no trace. Why mention it now? Let's wait until their envoy returns from the grassland!"
"promise!"
After Tuosang returned to the inn, he summoned all the subordinate officials.
"My lord, let me go back. After all, you are the official envoy of the Great Chanyu. If anything happens here, you can deal with it in time. If you are not here, what is the use of us staying here?"
Liu Deng's words in the main hall had completely forced them into the corner. At this time, they had no room for change.
"No, I have to go back in person for many things. If you go back, I'm afraid you won't be able to explain the great relationship. Let's just settle it. You don't have nothing to do if you stay here. If you have something important, you must go and give it to me. Find out, no matter how much effort it takes, no matter how much money it costs, even if it costs your lives, let me find out what the hell those envoys of King Youxian are doing here?"
"You mean, King Youxian sent people to Jinyang? Is this impossible?"
This is really unbelievable. Although the wise kings may be a little disrespectful to the Great Chanyu, they should not have any collusion with the Han people, right?
"I can't help with these things, so I'd better accompany you back. Otherwise, this journey will not be peaceful!"
Gru suddenly stood up and said angrily.
Although he despises this guy Tuosang, in any case, just because this guy can choose to return to the royal court alone at this time, Gru already has some admiration for him.
"If that's the case, thank you General Gru! Then go back and clean up. Time is urgent. We will set off in a moment!"
Tuosang did not refuse Gru's kindness. It was indeed a bit too dangerous to go on the road alone. Anything could happen on the vast grassland. The wolves on the grassland alone were enough to give him a headache. Although he believes that his kung fu is pretty good, there is still a gap between him and Gru.
At this time, since Gruken has stepped forward to protect him, his chances of survival will be greatly increased.
After tidying up a little, Gru directly sent someone to say hello to Li Wenming, and then hurriedly took Gru on the road.
Fortunately, the most indispensable thing among this envoy was good horses. The two of them traveled day and night with three horses and went straight to the royal court.
Li Wenming also received the news early and sent a pair of soldiers to follow them and escort them north from Yanmen.
Of course, they no longer bothered to see any barriers along the way. Even if they traveled day and night from Jinyang to the Xiongnu Palace, it would not be an easy task to complete a round trip within a month.
After Tuosang left, Liu Deng's life became more leisurely.
Now that the New Year is approaching, Liu Deng is busy working in his greenhouse all day, occasionally going to the salt pond and military camp to see, and his life is very comfortable.
Glass production has slowly begun to get back on track, and the papermaking machinery in the other courtyard has now begun large-scale manufacturing.
In the entire courtyard, there are now 200 craftsmen working day and night, but all the things they made have been stored in the warehouse by Liu Deng, and not a single thing has been leaked out.
After inspecting the warehouse of the other courtyard, Liu Deng felt completely relieved. After next spring, he would have to teach that old guy, King Wu Liu Bi, a lesson.
No matter what he does, this old guy always wants to take advantage of others. Even though his papermaking workshop is now fully operational, the price of this paper is still very high due to his speculation.
According to the information Liu Deng got from secret channels, this old guy has hundreds of papermaking workshops throughout the Wu Kingdom. Although the scale is not large, the output is already very amazing.
It's just that this old guy is used to hoarding. Of all the paper produced by the workshop, he only releases 10% of it each time!
Liu Deng really didn't expect that this old guy has learned hunger marketing in this year and age, but the paper he produces now is not at the same level as what Liu Deng produces.
He had no idea of improving the technology at all. He just kept expanding the scale, trying to use paper making to make up for his shortcomings in the salt industry.
Of course, he did not give up his efforts to obtain Liu Deng's salt-making method from any source. During the period of Liu Deng's expedition, the number of various agents captured in the military camp outside the city had reached nearly a thousand, and one day One by one, everything is proven.
Even though he is so unscrupulous, he still hasn't been able to get any useful information so far.
This salt lake is now the treasure of Dai Kingdom, and all the officials of Dai Kingdom are really vigilant.
Even the convoys of SF Express that come to transport goods can only wait outside. All loading and transportation processes need to be completed by soldiers in the military camp.
In order not to leak the news, the soldiers on the perimeter must take all their actions in the military camp. If they really have to go out for something, they need at least 10 companions to accompany them.
Tian Chong, this perverted guy, even issued an order to sit together in the military camp. If one person leaked the news, the entire team was beheaded!
Under such a harsh policy, it is expected that Liu Bi, an old boy, will get nothing...
