Liu Zheng felt horrified and his eyes widened.
King Yong laughed and said: "Master Liu, very few Long Yan knows about this matter. Isn't it worth two Yinzhou ships, haha!"
Liu Zheng's mouth twitched.
He had to admit that his curiosity was indeed aroused by King Yong, so he said: "King Yong, please stop selling your lies. I'm all ears, kid!"
This King Yong also had a few glasses of wine and looked like he liked gossip. He chuckled and said: "Boy, do you know why King Wei is so powerful and the Holy Emperor still allows the existence of his Qingzhou Army?"
Liu Zheng was also very curious.
Could it be that the old emperor was not afraid of King Wei's rebellion?
King Yong shook his head: "In those days, the battle for the rightful son in Beijing was very involved, and all the vassal kings in the world were involved. Speaking of it, the situation is almost the same as today. At that time, the Holy Emperor was the second prince and kept it quiet. The prince The fight with the third prince is what people are most concerned about."
"When the Holy One suddenly attacked, he was not only dealing with the Crown Prince, but also the Third Prince."
"So, the reason why King Wei has so many military exploits now is because he helped the Holy Lord to block the Qiang army back then!"
Although Liu Zheng heard something complicated, he immediately found something wrong with it. His eyes lit up: "What does King Yong mean that the third prince back then colluded with the Qiang people?"
King Yong nodded and said with a smile: "Haha, Liu Zhizhou is indeed one of the best among men. He can get through with just one click."
"King Wei's Qingzhou Army finally succeeded in driving away the Qiang people, but the third prince was nowhere to be found. The Holy Emperor has been searching for this matter for many years. Only then did he discover that his third brother not only colluded with the Qiang people, but also with the Huns. There were many in the Western Regions, and he They were all their benefactors, providing money, food and grass all the year round in preparation for their heirs."
Liu Zheng took a deep breath and was shocked.
If so...
One can imagine where the third prince of those days fled to.
King Yong laughed loudly: "So, the Holy One has sent countless spies over the years, with the purpose of finding the third prince - the Holy One called him, Xie Laoer. In the end, the target was the Western Region, but at this time, the Protectorate of the Western Region has already It was in name only. The Holy Emperor launched an angry expedition and finally confirmed that the Dawan Kingdom is now under the rule of Xie Laoer."
"However……"
King Yong laughed.
Liu Zheng smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty was defeated."
King Yong nodded: "Not only was he defeated, but he was defeated tragically. The entire army of 500,000 people was destroyed. He also agreed not to leave the palace for fifty years because of the battle."
Liu Zheng was dumbfounded.
This piece of history is definitely not spread in the Longyan Dynasty. Also, when it comes to the defeat of the current Holy Emperor, historians probably would not dare to record it.
King Yong sighed: "So, Mr. Liu, this Western Region Jiedu Envoy will not be able to take office easily. If all the countries in the Western Regions are really completely under the control of Xie Laoer..."
Liu Zheng smiled bitterly: "Not only the countries in the Western Regions, but also the Huns and Qiang people."
The two looked at each other in silence.
At this time, Liu Zheng realized how big of a problem this emperor had posed for him.
What a trap this is!
You know, the Dayuan Kingdom was the place where Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's army was defeated. Under Xie Laoer's governance, he had no idea what it had become now.
and……
From his trip to Loulan, he had never heard of the Dawan Kingdom. It can be seen that Xie Laoer and Xie Xuan's influence on the Western Regions was completely behind the scenes.
what is this?
In the Longyan Dynasty, is there a confrontation between Han people and foreigners?
Liu Zheng couldn't laugh or cry.
He was actually involved in such a big dispute.
King Yong reminded him again: "Master Liu, in the Kingdom of Dayuan, since ancient times, there have been war horses and night travelers! Liu Zhizhou, you have to be careful! These years, the Holy Emperor has not been in the palace. This is one of the reasons. .”
"He's waiting..."
"He worries every day about who will leave first between him and Xie Laoer, who is only one year apart in age..."
Night traveler!
That is, the assassin!
Liu Zheng bowed his head and said, "Thank you, King Yong, for your advice!"
King Yong laughed loudly: "Yinzhou Hanzhong, we are already in-laws, why should we be so polite? Besides, if there is no Liu Zhizhou in this world in the future, it will be as lonely as snow. What does Liu Zhizhou think?"
The two looked at each other and laughed.
…
Seven days later.
Three letters and six appointments were finally completed.
On this day, General Qin Changfeng of Yinzhou officially married Sikong Jing, the daughter of Sima Hanzhong.
Yinzhou has already shipped countless fine wines, and once again the whole city can drink for free, and the people have fun together.
King Yong was naturally not stingy either.
This is considered as marrying a daughter in Hanzhong, so the battle cannot be too small.
The fireworks and firecrackers never stopped from beginning to end. The beaming wedding team and the eight-horse carriage picked up Sikong Jing from the Sima Mansion, and Sikong Zhen and his wife were reluctant to leave.
Qin Changfeng was riding on the horse, dressed in red and majestic.
It took me half a day to walk around Hanzhong City before arriving at Hanshui Port. At this time, for this wedding, a Yinzhou ship was already decked out in red and flowers, celebrating the sky.
Along the way, with gongs and drums playing, the Yinzhou navy, led by Jiang Xuan, made a fuss all the way to welcome the bride onto the Yinzhou ship.
A trombone.
The Yinzhou ship, named "Hanzhong", began to set sail.
Sikong Zhen, an old man, couldn't help but wipe his tears.
"Sima, my daughter has gone to enjoy her happiness. Why are she unhappy?"
King Yong laughed.
Sikong Zhen and his wife laughed through tears, but there was still deep reluctance in their eyes. After all, my daughter is only sixteen years old...
King Yong looked at the Yinzhou ship going away and said calmly: "What does Sima think of Liu Zhizhou?"
Sikong really didn't dare to speak.
King Yong laughed and said: "He is a man of great talent and great ambition."
He turned back and gave Sikong Zhen a deep look, with a hint of meaning: "Sima, I may be able to rely on you in the future."
Sikong Zhen's expression changed greatly: "King Yong, this and this..."
King Yong looked up to the sky and laughed, turned around and left. There was loneliness in his laughter.
It seems that I am lonely as my group of people age.
I am also lonely, and none of my children can live up to expectations.
as if……
Also lonely.
This world dispute seems to have turned into a new generation of chess game as Liu Zhizhou looked eastward from Shangcheng Harbor.
I didn’t look at Liu Zhizhou...
Already on the way to expel the old chess?
…
One day later.
This "wedding ship" arrived at Kezhou Port - this is a newly opened port in Yinzhou. Although it is small, it is also the first port in Liangzhou.
The general's wedding is naturally a big event in Yinzhou, and the whole process is very lively.
The sedan chair never stopped after getting off the boat.
Qin Changfeng today is also good-tempered. No matter how much trouble you make, I will always be happy. How could the groom be angry on his big day, so the soldiers also played openly, after all, they usually wouldn't dare to bully Qin Changfeng like this.
"Okay, let's calm down for a moment, you've been playing all the way!"
Liu Zheng was riding a horse with many thoughts on his mind. Seeing Jiang Xuan running to bully Qin Changfeng again, he couldn't help but smile.
Jiang Xuan laughed loudly: "Brother, this is not okay. You don't know, if Jiang Xuan gets married in the future, he may not know how to retaliate against me!"
As soon as this was said, everyone laughed and agreed.
Qin Changfeng had a threatening smile on his face.
After getting off the waterway, it is natural to take the land route.
Kezhou is still three days away from Yinzhou.
The soldiers responsible for guarding Kezhou sent the wedding team to the outer suburbs and then went back to continue their duties.
It finally calmed down a bit.
Liu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, half a day's journey has passed again.
Liu Zheng was still a little unaccustomed to the dry and hot Yinzhou since the four seasons were like spring.
At noon.
The team stopped and dinner was served.
Jiang Xuan went to tease Sikong Jing's "girlfriend group" who was in charge of seeing her off again. These women are all from prominent families in Hanzhong, well-educated, and outstanding in appearance. It is no wonder that Jiang Xuan, a group of male lions, are all trying their best to express themselves as if they are courting their mates.
Liu Zheng laughed when he saw it.
Who didn’t have it when they were young?
One of the women in green, when they set off from Hanzhong, looked at Liu Zheng with stern eyes and voyeuristic glances from time to time. Then she was teased by her sisters, and the other women burst into laughter again. They had to admit that these women were also like this. Along the way, there is a unique scenery.
"Hey, Liu Zhizhou, my Ying'er wants to ask you, you won't even marry Shen Manqing, the best piano player in the world, do you want to marry a princess?"
The woman in green blushed with embarrassment, causing the other girls to burst into laughter. However, she still looked at Liu Zheng secretly, as if she wanted to know Liu Zheng's answer.
Liu Zheng smiled and shook his head. He knew that this girl, named Lin Yingying, was the daughter of a prominent family in Hanzhong. She was very beautiful, and her father also served in the Hanzhong palace.
While eating, he looked into the distance and said with a smile: "The love between a man and a woman is not what Liu Zheng wants."
Then Lin Yingying couldn't help but ask: "It has been like this since ancient times to start a family and establish a career. A family comes first and a career comes later. Is the young master too confused because he has done too many poems?"
After saying this, he covered his mouth and smiled.
Liu Zheng smiled and said nothing, and said leisurely: "There is a small river ahead. You can go there and have fun."
When the girls heard this, they were overjoyed.
When the daughter of Hanzhong came to Yinzhou, the weather was also unbearable. It has been sunny and extremely dry for the past few days. The girls hummed at Liu Zheng, then hummed a little tune and walked towards the river.
Jiang Xuan shouted and ran over.
However, at this moment.
Liu Zheng's thoughts were confused just now, and he was about to reorganize his thoughts and think about the matter of Dayuan Kingdom. War horses, night travelers...
Suddenly, he was shocked, his face changed drastically, and he shouted: "Come back!"
Everyone was shocked.
But it was too late.
I saw dozens of men in black suddenly appearing among the thorn bushes by the river, holding scimitars. It seemed that they were ready to attack. At this time, they would attack with the power of thunder.
"ah!"
Several girls were chopped down directly in a pool of blood.
This sudden change made Liu Zheng's face darken.
"assassin!"
"Beware of assassins!"
Fortunately, Jiang Xuan was following the group of girls. At this time, he drew his sword and protected a few of them.
Qin Changfeng shouted angrily and ran towards him, fighting with the assassins. Pei Qianyun also immediately protected Liu Zheng.
Qin Changfeng became more courageous as he fought, but he frowned: "Qianyun, the assassin is not weak, protect the young master!"
Pei Qianyun was just about to take action, but after hearing this, he refused to leave Liu Zheng.
This group of assassins were actually very skilled, and they cooperated with each other tacitly. They were as powerful as Qin Changfeng. For a moment, they were also caught in a fight.
The accompanying soldiers also joined the battle.
Suddenly, Liu Zheng yelled that he was not good and looked back.
At this time, a few more sneaky assassins came to the sedan chair behind.
"Qianyun, go protect Miss Sikong!"
Liu Zheng was confused and yelled.
However, the assassins had already jumped up, and under the clash of swords, the carriage was scattered in all directions. Along the way, Sikong Jing, who was wearing a red hijab, had a look of horror on her face.
A short sword was thrust into her back.
Her expression of horror, astonishment, and confusion.
Completely fixed.
"Miss Sikong!"
"Sikong Jing!"
"Jing'er!"
Everyone was heartbroken.
