Chapter 787: The Xiongnu and Daijun

There is such a judgment, but it is not that Chen Zhi is sentimental, but he has to think about it more, because in the past few months, the Xiongnu State has been honest on the whole, but this is the general trend, and it is quite stable in the eyes of the imperial court, but under this general situation, there are still sporadic incidents.

And Daijun is located on the edge of the Xiongnu State, which is inevitable, many of them are planned by Liu Yao, and want to use subversive means to deal with Chen Zhi, but with little success, several times sent troops to disguise themselves as bandits and Xianbei people, and wanted to enter Koudai County, but was also thwarted by Chen Zhi's Qipin Xianbei.

Now, he suddenly went out in person and led a group of troops and horses north, which would inevitably make Chen Zhi think a little more and suspect what purpose was hidden behind this.

Thinking about it, Chen Zhi simply summoned Su Liao and asked him to interrogate the many Huns who were still being imprisoned.

As early as half a year ago, there was an assassin hidden in the envoy group sent by the Huns, and after this person was caught, he was really tough, no matter how he treated, interrogated, and tortured to extract confessions, he just gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.

But in addition to this person, Jin Zhun, the chief envoy of the envoy at that time, and Jin Zhun's brother Jin Ming and others were also arrested, because Jin Zhun's status in the Xiongnu country is not low, and Liu Cong, the lord of the Huns, was planning to marry Jin Zhun's daughter, but the old man was locked up outside, how is it not the same thing, after all, the Huns have been sinicized for many years, and many marriage customs are close to the Han family.

So he sent people to Daijun one after another, and the core idea was one thing-

Let go!

At the beginning, he still used an attitude of reprimand and questioning, and threatened Daijun with military and family affairs to release people, which really made Daijun worried.

But Chen Zhi and others can see that the Huns actually have no conditions to move troops at the moment, and there is no sufficient reason to use troops, plus this matter is Chen Zhi was assassinated, and the Huns don't give an explanation, and dare the wicked to sue first, forcing the bitter lord to bow his head, if this matter really bows his head, others don't say it, but the impact on prestige is fatal.

So no matter how the other party threatened, Chen Zhi withstood the pressure from the county, but he didn't let go.

Later, the tone of the people sent by the Xiongnu gradually softened, and they actually talked about diplomatic relations, hoping that Chen Zhi could see the overall situation and contribute to the peace between the two countries.

But in Chen Zhi's opinion, these words are also empty words, if you really value peace on both sides, can there still be assassination? Besides, whether this matter was instructed by the high-level Xiongnu or was instructed by a certain faction, the other party did not say it explicitly, and no matter how you look at it, there is not much sincerity.

But since the other party's tone has changed, Chen Zhi also took advantage of the situation to put forward a few requirements, which can be regarded as a back and forth, after all, Jin Zhun's identity, as well as his original role in history, is reasonable, Chen Zhi will not really kill, not to mention that after investigation, questioning and evidence collection, Chen Zhi can basically determine that this assassination belongs to Liu Lin's personal behavior, not only Jin Zhun and Jin Ming in advance, but even Liu Yue in Liu Yao's camp did not know about it.

However, judging from some words and clues, Liu Yue came with the group and negotiated with Liu Lin, and he did have the idea of looking for an opportunity to assassinate, but this opportunity, no matter how you think about it, should not be in front of the public, in his own presence.

In this case, there is no need to risk disrupting the rhythm of development and forcibly killing, and if Liu Lin belongs to the system of Liu Yi and Liu Yao, then Liu Cong, the lord of the Huns, is equivalent to carrying the black pot for this matter.

Chen Zhi's bargaining made Liu Cong quite angry, and what made Liu Cong even more angry was the action of Liu Yi's faction, after all, during this visit, he Liu Cong did not plan to assassinate Chen Zhi, even if he succeeded, it was very likely to attract a strong counterattack from Daijun, which was not a good thing for the Xiongnu State, which had just pacified the interior and bridged the contradictions between several tribes.

But on the other hand, within the Xiongnu Kingdom, there are still many people who attribute the death of the former lord Liu Yuan to Chen Zhi, as a son of man, Liu Cong is not good at trading directly with Chen Zhi.

In this way, under the low-key handling of both sides, intentionally or unintentionally, I don't know when, there were merchants from the Xiongnu Kingdom who came to Daijun, and many business activities were carried out silently under the guidance of the Daijun County Government.

Not long after that, Jin Zhun and Jin Ming were put back one after another.

In Chen Zhi's view, these two people are a hot potato to keep, which makes the Xiongnu State worry, and also weakens Liu Cong's faction, so that Liu Yi, Liu Yao and others benefit, it is really not cost-effective, not to mention that in the original history, this Jin Zhun was also the culprit who contributed to the collapse and division of the Xiongnu Han State, and it was too wasteful not to use such a scourge.

In fact, as early as the second time Liu Cong sent someone to negotiate, Chen Zhi knew the bottom line of the other party, and then although he was under house arrest for the Jin Zhun brothers, the environment changed, and he treated him politely, and specially revealed the news to the Hun General Liu Yue.

This kind of treatment made the Jin Zhun brothers feel at ease, and the relationship with Chen Zhi actually improved, and even had the intention of deliberately getting close.

It's not that the two of them are masochists, but because of this incident, it was the members of the envoy group who took the initiative to assassinate Chen Zhi, if Chen Zhi hadn't reacted in time, he would have died on the spot, in all fairness, they felt that if they were themselves, they would not let go easily, and now they are willing to treat each other politely, although there are still restrictions, but they have also maintained restraint and released goodwill.

And the negotiation with Liu Cong, Chen Zhi also vaguely revealed, which made the two Jin Zhun brothers more and more at ease, so that three months ago, when the two left Daijun, they also expressed their feelings very much, and in the surprised eyes of others, they thanked Daijun for their hospitality, and then returned to the road.

As soon as Jin Zhun and the others returned, there was news of Liu Cong's wedding, and the people who knew the inside story of the county in this generation couldn't help but sweat, daring to love that the lord of the Huns had been waiting to enter the cave room for a long time, but the old man was trapped, this is not a trivial matter, if he is really locked to death, what will happen to him in a hurry, it is really not good to say.

However, on the other hand, although Jin Zhun and the others left, Liu Yue was still in Chen Zhi's hands, and because Liu Yue protested and was treated differently, Chen Zhi used this incident as an excuse to change the place, and secretly arranged it, so that he could connect with the spies of the Huns in the outside world and continue to receive news.

"This Liu Yao must not be underestimated, this person is a figure who has confronted Shi Ledu in the original history, he led the troops north, the purpose is unknown, you have to find a way, find out clearly, in case it is really intended to be on behalf of the county, when the time comes, I will fall into the quagmire of dealing with Wang Jun, and I may be attacked by the enemy, it is not advisable, since this is the case, it is time to release the prepared chess pieces."
