Chapter 1, Turtle's Funeral

Fu Jiezi listened to Huo and lost his voice, "When did it happen?"

Lu Ming said, "I don't know either. It seems to be this evening. Prince Jiangbin is in the post warehouse, and there are also several ministers and bosses. Go and have a look.

Fu Jiezi quickly straightened up his clothes and went out with Lu Ming. When he came to the post house, he saw Prince Jiangbin's head wrapped in a white scarf and stood outside in plain clothes. He did not come in. According to the atmosphere of Guizi, in such a public place as the post house, bereaved people could not come in within a year, which was also acceptable for the royal family. You can't obey, but Prince Jiangbin has always been polite and happy, so he did not enter the post warehouse as usual.

When Fu Jiezi saw him, Prince Jiangbin was still crying, his eyes were still swollen, and his breath was quite disordered.

Prince Jiangbin didn't say anything, but told Fu Jiezichen about the king's death according to Guizi's funeral ceremony. Fu Jiezi sighed. This time, when he came back from the Western Regions, some people died and resurrected, and some died suddenly. The world changed, which made it difficult to deal with.

Prince Jiangbin and the five ministers around him came to report. Before they could say more, Princess Di Shi also came out. She hurriedly got up, and her temperament was lively and open, and her dress was not very much like a princess. Prince Jiangbin reported the king's mourning to Princess Shi according to the ceremonial system. Princess Shi was stunned when she saw Prince Jiangbin crying. She went to help him and persuaded herself to cry. The two cried together. What others didn't know, they thought it was a suffering brother and sister or a young couple.

Several ministers around him came to whisper to persuade Prince Jiangbin to pay attention to the image of a country. He is now the king of Guizi. Prince Jiangbin endured for a while and said, "The messenger of Fu, the first king died. Seven days later, it is an auspicious time for the heavenly burial. Please come to attend the funeral."

Fu Jiezi bowed and said, "Fu must come. Your Highness... Oh, my condolences to the king."

Di Shi said, "General Fu, I'm going to see the old king." Fu Jiezi frowned slightly. This is a little inconvenient. It depends on Prince Jiangbin's idea. Prince Jiangbin was too worried at this time and did not pay attention to covering up their feelings. He said, "Brother Shi, come with me. I guess Wang must also want to see you very much.

My brother nodded.

Since Prince Jiangbin said so, Fu Jiezi also obeyed their wishes and said, "Di Shi, you and the prince... the king go. Be careful and don't make trouble." Brother Shi wiped his tears and nodded.

Watching Prince Jiangbin and his brother Shi and his party leave the post warehouse, Fu Jiezi stood in the warehouse and couldn't speak for a long time. The recent changes are too big and too fast. King Loulan died, Prince Angui succeeded to the throne, and King Guizi died again. Prince Jiangbin became king. In terms of personal feelings, Fu Jiezi's feelings for Loulan Much deeper, but Prince Angui disappointed him, but in the end, Prince Angui released the caravan of the Han Dynasty and the envoys who came to Han, which made him a little confused. Although the Guizi Kingdom did not have a deep friendship with the Han Dynasty, Prince Jiangbin succeeded to the throne, but he did not know whether it was a blessing or a curse for the Han Dynasty.

Fu Jiezi fell into deep worries. After a long time, Lu Ming said, " boss, now that the king is dead, the situation in Guizi will also change dramatically. Perhaps this is not a good thing for us." Speaking of this, I also feel that I shouldn't say such a thing at this time, and it looks a little modest.

Fu Jiezi paused and said, "It depends on Prince Jiangbin's attitude. Maybe Di Shi's marriage with him is a very good thing for the Han Dynasty, Wusun and Guizi. Lu Ming was worried and said, "I think Prince Jiangbin is weak and doesn't look like a man who can afford it. Shall we talk about it again?"

Fu Jiezi pondered for a moment and said, "Wait a minute. Now that Prince Jiangbin is dead, it's inconvenient to talk about this. Moreover, Prince Jiangbin is not as weak as you said. Seven years ago, I was also a weak scholar, wasn't I?

Lu Ming smiled and said, "That's true."

Fu Jiezi laughed and scolded, which made the Han army disperse. Then a few days, he went to visit the minister of Guizi again to explore the customs. In a flash, Fu Jiezi was anxiously waiting for the wherement of the Xiongnu messengers. Guizi was the only way for Wusun, but the Xiongnu envoy had not moved.

The king's funeral began, but the place where it was held was the temple of Guizi. It is the holy place of Zoroastrianism. With the previous rest crisis, most of the Zoroastrians have returned to the west. Since then, most of them have come. One of them, Fu Jiezi, an elder, has also seen it, but the name is too long and strange to remember. Anyway, these people are all called elders, so they have dealt with it.

The king's funeral was buried by fire. There were people inside and outside. Fu Jiezi left the Han army in the city and only brought two attendants. At this time, Di Shi stood next to Fu Jiezi. In the past few days, Di Shi became much quieter. Standing with Jiang Bin, he was also dressed in plain clothes, looking like A pair of beautiful people.

The elder held a funeral for the king according to fire religion and funeral. The ceremony was particularly complicated, which made Fu Jiezi feel a little dizzy. After a long time, the funeral was over. The king's body was washed and carried to a high mountain in the north of the canal, allowing the vulture to peck and salute. This kind of ceremony could only be attended by the closest people. Therefore, Fu Jiezi and his party were all blocked outside, but Di Shi was put in.

Seeing Prince Jiangbin treat his younger brother like this, Fu Jiezi is slightly happy, which is a good omen.

The ceremonial officer of Guizi asked everyone to go back. It was not until noon the next day that his younger brother Shi came back with a pale face. When he saw Fu Jiezi, he jumped into his arms and cried. Maybe he was scared. He told him how the vulture pecked the old king's body. Even the details were there, and Fu Jiezi was also a little scared. Fu Jiezi was really not used to it. Although Di Shi was used to treating him as an uncle, Fu Jiezi did not have that awareness. When his brother Shi almost cried, Fu Jiezi pulled her aside and sat down and said, "Brother Shi, now the old king has died of illness. , what do you plan to do?

Di Shi said, "General Fu, what do you plan to say?"

Fu Jiezi smiled and said, "Now Prince Jiangbin has become the king. According to the tortoise, the unmarried king will marry within three months to wash his bad luck. Didn't you ask Prince Jiangbin if he has any plans?"

Fu Jiezi thought of the tender face of the girl's family, so he asked more euphemistically. Hearing this, his face turned red and said, "I don't know. I haven't asked." Seeing that she was a little wrong, Fu Jiezi deliberately said, "What kind of princess will Jiang Bin marry?" Is it Loulan or Shanguo, or Jingjue, Yutan, or Shache Kingdom? Oh, by the way, there is no princess in Loulan Kingdom.

Di Shi couldn't help saying, "The old king Shache doesn't have a princess, not even a prince."

Fu Jiezi smiled and said, "Then which country do you think is better to marry? If you marry Princess Cheshi, isn't it unfavorable to our Han Dynasty and Wusun?"

My younger brother snorted with vigor: "It's not good to marry any of them!"

Fu Jiezi suppressed his smile and deliberately thought, "What should I do? Won't he marry?"

My brother Shi suffoed for a long time before muttering, "He said he would marry me."

Fu Jiezi shouted, "Really?"

"Yes!" Di Shi's face was so red that he suddenly got up and went back to the room and closed the door with a bang.

Fu Jiezi breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the situation these days, Fu Jiezi also guessed that it might be this result, but at this time, his younger brother Shi said it himself, and Fu Jiezi came down and was about to go back to bed. Lu Ming suddenly came over and said, " boss, the Xiongnu envoy came to the city. I just entered the city and I'm still in the post warehouse. I don't think I've seen the king yet.

Fu Jiezi said, "How many people are there?"

Lu Ming said, "Sure enough, as you expected, the army of the Xiongnu was locked outside the city, and only more than 70 people came in. Shall we do it?"

Fu Jiezi said, "Let's set out before they can enter the palace and let everyone prepare for the guys."

Lu Ming said, "It's all ready."

Fu Jiezi said, "Let everyone pay attention to prevent the Huns from doing it first. We will wait until they are asleep before doing it. I'll go to see Jiangbin first. Lu Ming said, "What are you doing when you see him?" Fu Jiezi said, "Prince Jiangbin seems to be weak, but in fact he is a person with great opinions. I will seek his opinion. If I guess correctly, he dares to do it."

Lu Ming said, "Why don't we kill it first?"

Fu Jiezi said, "This is too respectful to the State of Guizi, but as soon as the time comes, whether Prince Jiangbin agrees or not, we will do it." Lu Ming said, "Well, when the Huns didn't stand firm as soon as they arrived here, we were caught off guard. Well, boss, you take your brother Shi. Hey hey, she speaks more usefully than us.

Fu Jiezi also smiled faintly and asked Lu Ming to prepare. Lu Ming has always been very relieved when doing things, and they are all his own veterans. Fu Jiezi does not doubt their ability. I went to the door of my brother Shi's room and called my brother Shi. My brother Shi was a little scared when he heard that he was going to kill people, but this was also Princess Jieyou's instructions before leaving, so he had to go with Fu Jiezi, but he was worried that Fu Jiezi would bully Prince Jiangbin all the way and said, "General Fu, you can't force him too hard, and you can't yell at him to scold him. Otherwise, I won't go." Fu Jiezi smiled and said, "Ok, our little princess's heart is flying before she gets married? Brother Shi, if you really want to be with Prince Jiangbin, you have to ask your mother to agree. Moreover, Guizi and Wusun must be an allied country. To be precise, Guizi must stand behind your mother, that is, our Han Dynasty. You should know how to do it, right?

Brother Shi hummed, "You don't have to teach me. Aunt Feng has said it. With that, he arrived at the palace. With his younger brother Shi, he could enter without passing through. When he saw Prince Jiangbin, Fu Jiezi couldn't help but be shocked. Suddenly, the Xiongnu messenger Tie Muer and another Wanqi were here, and they didn't seem to talk very happy.
