Weiyang Palace, Qingliang Palace.
Li Yunze formally received the envoy sent by Yi Zhixie here.
After reading the letter sent by Yi Zhixie, he grinned and asked, "Messenger, how does Yi Zhixie look?"
The messenger was a little surprised, how could he talk about appearance instead of talking about business.
Fortunately, he was proficient in Han etiquette, and he immediately saluted and said, "As the emperor says, my king has the appearance of Mu Mu."
"Ah."
Li Yunze's smile became even brighter. "It sounds nice. Zhu Yuanzhang is said to have the appearance of Mu Mu. Hmm."
Shaking the letter in his hand, "She doesn't look very good, but her thoughts are quite beautiful."
All the civil and military personnel in the hall, including Zhou Yafu, who had been ill for a long time and rarely showed up today, burst into laughter.
Yi Zhixie's envoy was so ashamed and angry that he shouted angrily, "How can the emperor humiliate others?"
"Be bold!"
As expected, there was a roar of anger all around. This was the attitude that the courtiers had to show in front of the emperor.
Li Yunze waved his hand to silence everyone.
Then he looked at the messenger in front of him with a shaved head and only two combs of hair on his temples: "Are you Han?"
The envoy immediately straightened his face and said, "This is a big Huns!"
"Ah."
Li Yunze was noncommittal and did not dwell on the topic again.
It was obvious that the envoy in front of him was a Han who fled from the Huns, or was a descendant of the Han who fled from the Huns.
After joining the Xiongnu, not only will the food, clothing, housing and transportation be the same as that of the Huns, but they will even recognize their own identity from the bottom of their hearts.
There is no point in arguing with this kind of people.
"Yi Zhixie asked me for money and food, weapons and armor, and military support." Li Yunze stretched out his finger and tapped the letter, "What can he give me?"
The envoy was very dissatisfied that the Emperor of Han kept calling his king by his first name, but Ke Ren had to lower his head under the eaves. He could only suppress his anger and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor of Han, you will gain the friendship of my king."
Although Yi Zhixie has raised an army to resist the military minister Chanyu, his identity is still King Zuoguli and he has not yet called himself Chanyu.
After all, calling yourself a Chanyu before winning the battle will not only bring no benefit at all, but will also attract ridicule from other tribes.
Prairie pays attention to strength. When you are strong enough, let alone call yourself a Chanyu, you can even call yourself a god.
If you call yourself Chanyu when you are not strong enough, you will only be greeted with ridicule and contempt.
After the messenger finished speaking, whispers began to ring out in the hall.
In the past, this would have been a good thing.
Supporting the Huns to fight among themselves, and then sitting on the mountain to watch the fight between tigers and watching the Huns fight among themselves and consume their strength, the emperor of Han Dynasty would probably wake up laughing in his dreams.
But things are different now.
Since Li Yunze defeated the Huns several times, especially in the battle of Taiyuan County, where he beat the Huns to the point of urinating blood, the Han's mentality towards the Huns has undergone subtle changes.
I used to hate them with itch, but I really can't beat them in a field battle, so I still recognize the strength of the Huns.
But now, from the court to the people, talking about the Xiongnu is how the emperor beat them violently, and the words are full of contempt.
This mentality is particularly prominent among the Great Wall Legion. From time to time, many border generals will use their vans as shields to send troops to the grasslands, sweep up and then return with a large plunder.
That is to say, the Huns suffered heavy losses and started fighting among themselves again. They were in such chaos that they no longer had the energy and strength to take into account the harassment from the Han side.
Otherwise, any attempt to lure the enemy deeper or to encircle a point for reinforcements will inevitably cause heavy losses to the Han army.
Vans are not omnipotent. Borrowing favorable geographical conditions or simply digging trenches can greatly limit the use of vans.
Just being trapped and lacking clean water can bring down an army in three days.
Water will deteriorate, especially when exposed to high temperatures.
Therefore, the army usually marches along the living water river. This is the most important reason.
Talk back.
Li Yunze understands Yi Zhixie's friendship very well.
In other words, he knows those nomadic tribes too well.
It is extremely common for him to call his father in front of him and then turn around and stab him with a knife.
The friendship of nomadic tribes, haha~~~
"Yi Zhixie's friendship?" Li Yunze reached out and turned over the letter, looking at Zhou Yafu, "Prime Minister."
Zhou Yafu immediately saluted and responded, "I am here."
He knew very well that he was not popular with the emperor. After all, his father had killed the young emperor, and he almost killed the young emperor.
No matter who is the emperor, he cannot tolerate officials who like to kill the emperor.
The reason why Zhou Yafu has persisted in not resigning until now is because Zhou Yafu clearly knows that Li Yunze is paving the way for his father Yan to ascend to the throne, and the contribution of paving the way is to build a new city.
When the construction of the new city is completed, Zhu Fuyan can successfully become the prime minister with this meritorious service.
Now, Zhou Yafu is standing guard for his father.
But he is still the Prime Minister after all, and if the emperor wants to do something, he still has to go to him first.
"Since Yi Zhixi has come to ask for something, I have to give him some amount." Li Yunze said slowly, "Then I will allocate nine hundred pieces of money, eight pieces of cloth, twelve pieces of grain, one piece each of sword, gun, sword, halberd, crossbow, hammer, and leather. Two sets of armor, four shields, three tents, and two carts
Stand, one drum, six horns, three tendons, eight taels of medicinal materials, and one pound of salt."
As Li Yunze spoke seriously about donating supplies, the expressions of everyone in the hall were wonderful.
Han Chen was suppressing a smile, but Yi Zhixie's envoy was trembling all over and his eyes were red, as if he was about to pounce on him the next moment.
It’s so humiliating!
If this little thing given by Li Yunze fell into the hands of a certain common person, it would definitely be a huge sum of money.
But for Yi Zhixie, who was caught in the war, this was not even a drop in the bucket.
And, more importantly, this is Chi Guoguo's humiliation.
After Li Yunze finished speaking, he also told Zhou Yafu, "Prime Minister, arrange the loading as soon as possible and send it to Yizhi Xie."
Zhou Yafu, who also couldn't help laughing, saluted and said, "I've made a note of it, and we'll arrange it after I go to court. It won't be long before the messenger returns to the inn, and everything will be sent over."
'Hahahahaha~~~'
The ministers, who had already lost their patience, burst into laughter.
After suffering such humiliation, the envoy of Yi Zhixie calmed down.
When everyone's laughter gradually subsided, he said coldly, "Unexpectedly, the big man is so poor. If I had known this, I should have asked the king to give some cattle and sheep to help the big man."
"Be bold!"
These mocking words immediately caused all the civil and military personnel in Qingliang Hall to break their defenses.
Wei Qing and others rushed out angrily, planning to teach this hateful messenger a lesson.
"Everyone go back."
Li Yunze waved his hand, signaling Wei Qing and others to return to their seats.
He looked at Yi Zhixie's envoy leisurely and said, "It doesn't matter whether the Han is poor or not, it doesn't matter what you say, and it doesn't matter what I say. Only the people of the Han Dynasty have a say. Compared with those who rely on the sky on the grassland, Herdsmen who eat, I, the Han people, at least live better than you.
good. "
"As for those things, giving them to Yi Zhixie is a matter of affection, and not giving them is a duty. Too little? He deserves it too!"
Li Yunze stood up directly, "My Han people haven't become rich yet. Being able to give Yi Zhixie something is already giving him face! After all, he has opened his mouth. I only hope that you Huns can kill each other more." There are many. There are many things, but I will only use them on big men.
of the people, so that they can have enough food and clothing, have children go to school, and have medicine to treat their illnesses. As for you and other outsiders."
Having said this, Li Yunze motioned to Zhi Du, "Take him to see how rich my big man is, and then let him get out of here with what he wants."
"Here!"
After the envoy left, Wei Qing took the initiative to ask Ying: "Your Majesty, the civil strife of the Xiongnu is a good time to attack. I am willing to lead the troops out of the fortress!"
"not the right time yet."
Li Yunze simply rejected Wei Qing's invitation to fight, "The Han Dynasty doesn't have enough cavalry."
"But we have a van."
"So what." Li Yunze frowned, "Don't take the van too seriously. The Huns don't have a city. When they run to Mobei, can the van catch up with them? How long will the supply line have to be if we rely on infantry to fight in Mobei? How many civilians must be mobilized? First, Haosheng trains and expands the cavalry.
, let’s talk about leaving the fortress after we have enough strength. "
Wei Qing was unwilling to give in, but since the emperor's words were such, he had no choice but to retreat in dismay.
"Wait."
Li Yunze called Wei Qing and asked, "Are there any officials from Pingyang County who are here to take turns in your house?"
Although Wei Qing has been granted the title of Marquis, he still lives in Pingyang Marquis Mansion.
In addition to taking care of Princess Pingyang and her son, more importantly, he was born here and grew up here, which is also his home.
Moreover, his family members are also in the Pingyang Marquis Mansion.
As for the rotation of minor officials, it is also the result of the enfeoffment system.
For example, the Marquis of Pingyang's fiefdom is Pingyang County. Not only does he have to pay taxes on food and towns to the mansion, he also has to send people over regularly to do work in the mansion.
Vassals are similar to vassals, except that the Han Dynasty used dual management, obeying the orders of the marquis and the management of the court.
Wei Qing was a little confused as to why His Majesty cared about such a trivial matter.
Li Yunze took a few steps forward and came to Wei Qing's side. He lowered his voice and said to him, "If Huo Zhongru, a minor official from Pingyang County, comes to your house, please allow your sister Wei Shao'er to have more contact with him."
This is also something that can't be helped.
After Li Yunze came, he changed the direction of the timeline, and the fate of many people changed.
For example, Wei Shao'er was only a servant of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion in history, so it was nothing to have an affair with Huo Zhongru, a small official.
After all, he is just a lowly servant.
But things are different now. As Wei Qing's status rises rapidly, Wei Shao'er's status naturally rises as well. How can he still be regarded as a mere petty official.
Doesn't this mean that the peerless hero of the Han family has no chance of success?
Li Yunze is not sure whether the peerless hero will appear again, so he can only treat a dead horse as a living horse.
These words really made Wei Qing confused. What does this mean?
Fortunately, he was loyal to the emperor, and even if he had doubts in his heart, he immediately accepted the order.
But he also followed up immediately.
"Your Majesty, my little sister is getting older and misses you more and more. I beg you to take some time off."
"Yes." Li Yunze nodded, "I understand."
