"Your Majesty, the Huns envoy is outside the door asking to see you!"
Not long after Zhao Wengu and the others left, just when Liu Deng was about to change his clothes and go out for a walk, a guard outside the door suddenly came in to report.
"How can I, the king, have the time to see them? I will tell them to get as far away as possible. I will get angry when I see them!"
Liu Deng was furious when he heard about the Huns envoy. What the hell is going on?
Can't you just marry that Hun princess to His Highness the Crown Prince? We have to deal with these nonsense here.
"Your Majesty, isn't it inappropriate to do this?"
In any case, he was also an envoy from a country, and he handed over the message in an upright manner. It seemed a bit inappropriate to shut him out like this.
"What's wrong? I'm not feeling well and don't want to see guests!"
After Liu Deng finished speaking, he went back to his study angrily. It seemed that he didn't even want to go out.
Seeing that the king was so angry, Du Ziteng had no choice but to continue talking. He could only run to the door in frustration and reject Tuosang and the others.
"I'm sorry that some of our kings are suddenly feeling unwell. We won't see any guests today. Please come back, please!"
Tuosang had prepared a lot of words and wanted to get something useful from Liu Deng's mouth, but unexpectedly, he was not given a chance to speak at all.
After all, this is the Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty. If people don't want to see him, what can he do even if he is an envoy of the Huns?
The Great Chanyu gave him an order to collect the contents of the negotiations between King Youxian and Liu Deng at all costs.
But these people, whether they are in Chang'an City or Jinyang City, are unfamiliar with the place. If you want to inquire about information, you'd better stop joking.
After much thought, he could only test Liu Deng's mouth to see if he could dig out something. This was also a last resort, but now it seemed that even this road was blocked. , seeing that the date set by Da Shanyu was getting closer and closer, he really didn't know what else he could think of.
"Is this for me?"
After all, Zhao Wengu is a girl. After arriving at Dou Mansion, he took the box directly to Dou Muyao's boudoir after some communication.
After hearing that this was Liu Deng's gift to her, Dou Muyao was really excited.
"My king also said that he is going to return to Dai Kingdom tomorrow. Please take care of yourself, young lady!"
Although the little girl in front of her was indeed a little jerky and blushed when she spoke from time to time, she was one of the future mistresses anyway, so Zhao Wengu still paid attention to propriety when speaking.
"I also have something I want to give him. Please bring this to him when you go back! This is the amulet I begged from an old god. Please make sure he takes it with you..."
For a girl's family, these words are already very explicit. What's more, although Zhao Wengu is a maid, after all, the two of them don't get along much.
After saying these words, Dou Muyao's face turned red again.
"Don't worry, girl, I will tell the king when I get back! I'm resigning, slave!"
After Zhao Wengu finished speaking, he turned around and left, while Dou Muyao carefully opened the box. After lifting the lid, she was immediately stunned by the sight in front of her.
Inside are a pair of crystal-clear rabbits, with no trace of polishing visible from top to bottom. What’s even more rare is that the rabbit’s eyes seem to be inlaid with two rubies.
The sunlight slanted in from the window, shining on the pair of glass rabbits, making them even more crystal clear and dazzling.
Dou Muyao was born in the Year of the Rabbit, and today happened to be her sixteenth birthday. Just because her mother died in childbirth when she was born, she never celebrated her birthday.
But she didn't expect that today, she would actually receive her first birthday gift in so many years...
Liu Deng probably didn't expect that it was originally just a whim, but today unexpectedly coincided with her birthday.
Maybe this is called deliberately planting flowers but not blooming, and unintentionally planting willows to create shade. However, Liu Deng did not have time to stay in Chang'an City anymore. Liu Deng entered the palace to bid farewell to the emperor that afternoon. After all, he would still have some flowers after returning this time. Lots of things to do.
According to the current situation, as long as the court confirms it, I am afraid that the Huns will send Princess Yana immediately.
Although everyone knows in their hearts, how long this short-term peace can exist depends entirely on how long both sides need to prepare for war.
But I have to say that this is the best result for the current Han Dynasty.
Liu Deng needed time to arm his army and promote his new food.
The Han court also needed a relatively stable environment to complete the handover of the throne.
The emperor's health was getting worse day by day, and now at this time, the emperor had to start making plans for his son to ascend to the throne.
The Huns also need a short period of peace to deal with their internal conflicts. Everyone needs a relatively stable environment, so now this marriage has become a fig leaf.
When this piece of cloth is lifted again, I'm afraid it will be a real battle to the death.
Liu Deng wanted to realize his desire to sleep until he woke up naturally and count money until his hands cramped. The first thing he had to do was, of course, to kill the Huns who were staring at him all day long.
There are such a group of vicious neighbors who are always ready to come to your house to rob you. No matter what you mess with at home, you must be panicking in your heart.
The prince had already conveyed all Liu Deng's words to Liu Heng, and Liu Heng also knew in his heart that although this matter sounds simple, no matter which army of the Han Dynasty faced the Huns, how could they dare to say that they were sure of victory? Woolen cloth?
The art of war says that if you know yourself and your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. The Han Dynasty could not afford to lose this battle, so the emperor no longer cared about the red tape and asked him to rush back to Dai as soon as possible.
When he came, there were only a few dozen people, but when he returned, there were nearly a thousand people. Liu Deng suddenly found that every time he came back to Chang'an City, he always gained something unexpected. This place seemed to be his blessed place.
Although there are still a lot of things to do when we go back this time, after all, the journey is not as hard as when we came here.
After ten days of trekking, Liu Deng finally returned to Jinyang City. Looking at the fashionable and prosperous streets, Su Jian and Zou Yang could hardly believe that this was the country of Dai.
Everyone in the world says that among the princely states in the world, only Dai and Yan are the poorest, but the streets of Jinyang are too lively, even compared to Chang'an City...
