Chapter 10, Queen and Dunhuang

The matter of meeting King Loulan is over. Fu Jiezi obviously thought it was too easy. In Loulan, it was much easier for his messenger to see the king than to meet a minister in the Han Dynasty, but there were too many risk factors behind this ease.

For example, Prince Angui is full of hostile eyes.

After this routine, Fu Jiezi resigned from the king and returned to the post station, and Wei Tuqi sent Fu Jiezi back at the order of the queen. Fu Jiezi originally wanted to say no need, but soon found that the matter was not so simple, so he went back with Wei Tuqi.

It was already dusk when he returned to the post station in the west of the city. Wei Tu Ji brought more than 100 floors of Lan Guardians to accompany him. The leader was a lieutenant general named Che Hu. He was a big man with a tiger back and a bear waist, but he was very respectful to Wei Tu Qi. Fu Jiezi suspected that they wanted to trap his party, but Wei Tuqi said it was to protect the safety of the Han envoy. Although Fu Jiezi has doubts, he can't do anything about it.

Fu Jiezi returned to the station to see Suicheng's condition, but Suicheng was exhausted because he had been evil before, and then exhausted. At this time, his condition became more serious and he didn't know how to live for a few days. Although Fu Jiezi had a certain degree of medical practice, he was also helpless about these diseases of exhaustion, just like a general, his men. The soldiers in front of him have almost escaped, and it is useless to ask him to fight again.

When he was in distress, Wei Tuqi came again, and there was also an oldhu man who seemed to be a royal doctor or something. Fu Jiezi asked the old Hu people to see a doctor, and he and Wei Tuqi went out to talk first. Fu Jiezi knew that there must be something in this Loulan City that he didn't know yet, and the prince knew more or less about these things.

Wei Tuqi was ordered by the king to bring some pearl gems and other things. There were also three Han women and a Persian woman to serve Fu Jiezi. Fu Jiezi didn't like these things, but because they were diplomatic relations between countries, it was not the time to show integrity, so he accepted them all for later. Speak.

Wei Tuji obviously concealed something. From his words and behavior, not to mention that there is something wrong with the Loulan Guard outside. First of all, if Wei Tuqi really wants to protect himself, then the soldiers called are naturally the best, but the best soldiers in Loulan are the Condor Guard, and these people are obviously not. Secondly, Wei Tuqi was ordered to protect the Han envoy, but not the king's order, but the queen's order before his departure, which was unreasonable.

After talking for a while, Fu Jiezi finally found a problem in his words: Prince Angui!

That's not a good bird.

At this time, the old imperial doctor came out, but kept shaking his head, sighing for a while, and couldn't say anything. Fu Jiezi couldn't understand what he said, but he could see it from his expression. Hearing Suicheng's gasp, Fu Jiezi hurried in to see how he was doing. Suicheng was extremely weak and couldn't speak clearly, and he was asking about Huo Yi's whereabouts.

Fu Jiezi's heart was very confused, but he said, "Sir, I will find him." Suicheng was still worried. After saying it again and again, he couldn't breathe and fainted. Fu Jiezi asked several old sergeants in the army to take care of Suicheng together with Uda, and he and Wei Tuqi went to visit the wounded in the camp.

The seriously injured in the camp were as unconscious as Sui Cheng, and the injured were also shaking from time to time, and their hands and feet were not good. The opponent he met this time was too strange. These 100 people are the elite teachers carefully selected by Fu Jiezi. In terms of martial arts, no civilian armed forces are their opponents. Even if they meet Xiongnu soldiers, they will not be easily defeated, but what they encounter is evil.

Fu Jiezi began to worry in his heart. Huo Yi, Wuda and Su Qiaoer disappeared, so they became half dead. The sergeant was seriously injured. There was a murder hidden murder in Loulan City. What should he do to do alone?

When Wei Tuji saw the situation of the Han sergeant, a few strange eyes flashed in his eyes, as if he were hiding something. Fu Jiezi had long felt that he had nothing to say, but had some scruples and did not speak. At this time, he asked rashly, and he would definitely deny it, so he didn't say much, but secretly paid attention to the prince's every move.

Out of the barracks, there was a Loulan guard waiting for Lieutenant Tu Ji outside. He came forward and said two words. Wei Tu Ji turned around and said, "The messenger of the Han Dynasty, the mother prepared a banquet in the palace and wanted to invite the messenger to have a chat." Fu Jiezi was a little puzzled. If it was in the Han Dynasty, there would definitely be no queen's words about inviting messengers to drink, but it was very common in Loulan City. In Loulan City, when the people saw the king, they could enthusiastically gather around and talk. The palace was also an ordinary civilian to enter, but there were guards guarding them. Some simple procedures.

Fu Jiezi vaguely felt that something good for him was going to happen, and now he promised to let Wei Tuqi lead the way. On the way, Fu Jiezi wanted to trap the bottom of Lieutenant Tu Qi first and said, "The prince speaks Chinese very well." Wei Tuqi said, "It was taught by the mother, and the mother is also a Han Chinese." Fu Jiezi hit the snake with the stick and said, "I don't know where my ancestral home is?" Wei Tuqi casually said, "In Dunhuang, I came to our Loulan Kingdom because of the accident." Fu Jiezi said again, "The prince speaks Chinese much more fluently than Prince Angui." Wei Tuqi said, "I often accompany my mother, so there are more opportunities to speak Chinese." Fu Jiezi nodded thoughtfully.

When he came to the palace, Fu Jiezi really saw Loulan's Wang Ting this time. The interior decoration is much simpler than the Central Plains architecture, which makes people feel a little empty and stiff, unlike the Central Plains. There were sporadic Loulan guards around. Fu Jiezi followed Wei Tuqi into the dome lobby. Unexpectedly, there were only a few maids here and did not see the queen.

Lieutenant Tuqi took Fu Jiezi to walk for a while and let the car guard outside. No one can come in. After that, he took Fu Jiezi into a small side hall behind the dome and rich hall. The queen sat there alone, and there were only two maids of honor guarding behind her. After Fu Jiezi came in, the two maids of honor were also separated.

Fu Jiezi knew that coming here today was not just about eating wine.

Fu Jiezi saluted the queen first. The queen's first feeling to Fu Jiezi was that he was a very kind person with elegant manners and gave people a sense of tranquility and peace.

"Starry night, please invite the national messenger to come. The little woman is disturbed." The queen motioned Fu Jiezi to sit down and said, "Just because the little woman is also a Han Chinese and has been away from her hometown for a long time, I want to ask the messenger of the country to speak."

Fu Jiezi suddenly thought of General Huo Guang's task before his departure.

As a horse prison, he went to Dawan to ask for a sweaty BMW, but the real destination was the nearby Dayue clan, who cooperated with the Dayue clan to attack the Xiongnu. In addition, he explored the attitude of the countries in the Western Regions.

This building is the first household in the Western Regions.

The so-called wine eating is just an ass. In front of the queen is a small three-foot-sized round table, paved with silk, with some Loulan snacks on it, and then a translucent jade neck bottle containing more than half a pot of red wine and three soft jade cups.

It seems that only three seats have been prepared for this wine meal. One is the queen, one is Wei Tuqi, and the other is Fu Jiezi. There is no king and no prince. What does it mean? Fu Jiezi took all this in his heart and felt that this Loulan country was not like a county as he thought, and there was also a very subtle relationship in it.

Tug said, "Lord, the messenger, my mother is a Han Chinese, and I am also half a Han Chinese. If the messenger has any difficulties, my mother and I will try our best to help." The queen nods and said, "Lou Lan and Han have always been friendly countries, and the little woman does not want the two countries to be friendly for generations." Fu Jiezi heard something from his words and said, "If the Empress helps each other so much, the two countries will naturally be friendly for generations." After a pause, he said, "So, what about Prince Angui?" What does His Majesty think?

Wei Tuqi's face changed a little, but the queen was still calm and said, "An Gui is the son of a little woman, and naturally her heart is also towards the big man. The king was a hostage of the Xiongnu for many years, and he also hated the Xiongnu, so as long as I was sincere in the Han Dynasty, His Majesty would also be inclined to the Han Dynasty.

Fu Jiezi said that the atmosphere of these friends was too stuffy, and it would be dangerous to talk more and ask more questions. Now the conversation turned around and talked about the situation in Dunhuang and asked how the queen would come from Dunhuang to Loulan. He guessed that the queen married Loulan, which was a friendly action between countries, saying that these would increase the possibility of cooperation.

When it comes to Dunhuang, the queen's face is a little painful, but she still tells her story calmly.

The queen's father's surname is Geng, and he was originally the city owner of Dunhuang. At that time, the Silk Road had not been opened. The main defense of Dunhuang was aimed at Western countries such as the Xiongnu and Loulan. The owner of Geng was a great man who could defeat demons and ambush demons. He had been safe in Dunhuang. However, in those years, there were always a large number of Xiongnu soldiers crossing Dunhuang to rob the people in the mainland of the Han Dynasty. But he didn't grab anything from Dunhuang. The Lord Geng couldn't find out anything. He didn't know how the Xiongnu soldiers stole through. In the end, he had no choice but to ask Lou Lan for help. He intercepted the Xiongnu soldiers on both sides. In order to show his sincerity, Geng Chengzhu married his eldest daughter to Loulan and became today's queen.

Fu Jiezi seemed to have talked about something important, as if it had something to do with her own affairs. He said, "Today's owner of Dunhuang City, whose name is Geng Long, is..." The queen nodded and said, "That's the second brother of the little woman." Fu Jiezi was very surprised and felt that his burden was much lighter. In any case, the queen stood on the side of her own Han Dynasty.

Geng Long, the owner of Dunhuang City, known as Dunhuang Shenlong, is a general of the Han Dynasty who made the Huns look sideways. He has guarded Dunhuang for many years and has never heard of the invasion of Xiongnu soldiers.

The Queen continues to tell her story.

The old city owner married his daughter to Loulan just to ask Loulan to send troops to intercept the Xiongnu soldiers, but he died because of this. Because there are many soldiers in Dunhuang, it is not difficult to eliminate the Xiongnu soldiers. In this way, the old city owner was suspected of having an affair with foreign enemies, leaving a truth for a highly prestigious family surnamed Pan in Dunhuang. After being reported to the court, the lord of Geng City was raided, and the queen's two brothers, Geng Long and Geng Hu, were also filled with the army. The queen herself married Foreign countries have not been dealt with for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

A few years later, under the Queen's multi-party accommodation, the two brothers Geng Long and Geng Hu were bought with money. Geng Long found out the reason at that time. It was actually a Han traitor who led the Xiongnu soldiers across the border in batches with the situation of the merchant team. Because of the reason, the city owner of Geng was restored to his official position, but at this time, the owner of the old city was dead, considering that In relation with the relatives of Loulan, the court sent Geng Long as the lord of Dunhuang and brought Loulan to the Han Dynasty.

Fu Jiezi saw that the queen had hidden a lot of places and did not explain it clearly, but considering the taboos in this matter, he didn't ask much, but it could be heard that the queen was here to help him.

The Queen didn't say much about this, but said, "The messenger of the Han Dynasty, Loulan City is not peaceful recently. Please be careful about everything." Fu Jiezi knew that she was talking about the Huns, but he couldn't say such words clearly.

"Thank you for reminding me, can the queen know a Dunhuang man named Geng Rong?" The queen shook her head and smiled, "There are many people surnamed Geng in Dunhuang City. The little woman doesn't know about this." Fu Jiezi thought of the mysterious Geng Rong again, who was by no means an ordinary businessman.

Fu Jiezi said goodbye to the queen and prepared to go back to the post station. Wei Tuqi insisted on sending him back. Fu Jiezi was shocked again. No matter what he said, he was just a messenger, and no matter how bad he was, he was also a prince of Loulan, and the two did not have a deep friendship. If according to the rules, he saw him, said a few polite words, and then sent him out safely. There was really no need to be so attentive to himself.

But there is only one reason why he is doing this now, that is, safety. Although Fu Jiezi is only a messenger, he must not die in Loulan's territory. Wei Tuqi wants to ensure his safety, but since he has protected this, it shows that there is a great danger in the dark. He doesn't know it, but the prince already knows it.

But why doesn't he say it clearly?

Fu Jiezi knew that there must be something he didn't know, so he didn't ask much, so he let Wei Tugi send him back to the post station.
