Section 864 Kickbacks
"Your envoy entrusted Wei Shang to convey the letter to me, and I have read it......" Liu Che stood up, looked at the Chinese name Di Wen, and said, "I won't go around in circles with your envoy......"
"The conditions of the envoy, I have already considered ......"
It was difficult to hear this, and suddenly his breath became short.
Because, what the Han Dynasty emperor in front of him said next is very likely to affect his entire life!
"Just want to redeem the captured King Zhelan and the King of Aries?" A sneer appeared at the corner of Liu Che's mouth: "This is not a non-negotiable thing......
And the canal and carving are difficult, and they are immediately ecstatic.
For Shan Yuting, if he can redeem the King of Zhelan and the King of Aries.
Yuting alone can pay almost any price for this!
As long as these two people can be redeemed, Yuting's face alone can be saved.
Otherwise, if these two people were taken by the Han Dynasty to their temple, their heads and blood were sacrificed to the ancestors.
Shan Yuting's face was about to be trampled into the mud.
Of course, it would be even better if we could redeem the nobles of the captured Tyrant clan and the four major clans!
Liu Che looked at the difficult appearance, and raised his eyebrows.
To be reasonable, the Han family should not have let any captured Xiongnu nobles return to the grassland.
Let the tiger return to the mountain, and the future will be endless.
China's international relations with the entire Northeast Asian region have always adhered to the tradition of 'cutting down the grass and eradicating the roots'.
Treating the vanquished, perhaps the lower class of the people and herdsmen will be forgiven, but the upper class of nobles will inevitably be bathed in blood.
This is the opposite of the continent.
But. The situation is a bit peculiar.
The Han army was victorious, but it was also extremely exhausted. The entire region of Longyou-Dai Kingdom needs to recuperate.
At this time. Of course, the Huns should not be over-stimulated.
Otherwise, people will flip the table with you.
Although Liu Che was not afraid of the Huns, he was also confident that he would completely wipe out the invading Huns.
However, he did not want to pay the price of the entire north being smashed.
Moreover, the Huns did have chips in their hands.
The people of Zhuxia who have been captured and plundered in the past few decades are conservatively estimated to be at least 100,000 or more.
These people were taken captive in the past because of the country's weak armament.
Now, the country is strong. And there is a chance that it can be redeemed.
Of course it's going to be redeemed.
As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, the state of Lu enacted legislation to encourage and reward the redemption of its own nationals captured in the war.
Liu Che can't even compare to the slave owners of the Spring and Autumn Period!
Moreover, Emperor Liu has always flaunted that he loves the people like a son and regards the people as his own flesh and blood.
If the people and compatriots who were captured and taken captive in the war can be redeemed and repatriated through diplomatic means, it will stabilize the rule of the Liu clan and further strengthen the basic card of the Han family. The effect is obvious.
Think about it, in history, Emperor Zhao redeemed Su Wu, and suddenly made a name for himself and established his prestige and authority.
100,000 people and one Su Wu. Of course, the weight of 100,000 people is heavier!
It's just that......
If the Huns wanted to be simple, they relied on their mouths to fool and did not take practical actions. Liu Che also refused.
Moreover, the defeated country. It is necessary to show the appearance of a defeated country.
There are so many conditions that have been put forward by twisting and turning.
It is also to redeem the captured nobles, and it is to re-establish the peace treaty. It is also necessary to continue the plan of exchanging weapons for slaves and livestock, and Liu Che must issue an edict to recognize the status of military ministers.
Who is the defeated country in the end?
Do the military ministers still think that the Xiongnu Empire is still as strong as it was five years ago?
The whole of Northeast Asia is his family's bathhouse, take it if you want, and ask for it if you want?
Even the Manchu Qing Dynasty still had to bow their heads obediently after a duck and pay compensation to cut the land.
Can you Huns escape this sword?
Liu Che looked at the canal and carved the difficulty, and said: "However, your country must admit defeat, you must send an envoy to apologize, and the envoy must be a Xiongnu royal family, and you must personally go to Wuzhou to apologize for the death of the soldiers and the people, sincerely!" ”
"Moreover, it must be guaranteed that there will never be a next time for such incidents!"
"Shan Yu must cede the land because of this incident and compensate my Han for the loss ......"
Liu Che said countless musts in one breath, and his brain, which was difficult to hear, hurt a little.
"Only by merely promising to approve these conditions of mine will I believe in the sincerity of Shan Yu and your country......"
"This ......" and Qu and Diao shook his head, and pleaded with an embarrassed face: "Your Majesty, your conditions, Shan Yu and the Huns will never agree!" ”
Of course not!
Who promised whom****!
With the tradition and personality of the Huns, even if it is Mao Dun, if he does this, when he turns back, the nobles below will immediately teach him to be a man!
"Of course I know......" Liu Che looked at it with a smile: "That's why I deliberately put forward these conditions to facilitate the operation of the messenger......
Liu Che clapped his hands and asked Wang Dao to hand over a copy of the national letter that had been prepared a long time ago. Then he continued: "If I don't put forward these harsh conditions, how can I show the skill of the messenger? ”
And it is difficult to hear this, and immediately understand.
He knelt down ecstatically and said sincerely: "Your Majesty's generosity is really very touching to the foreign minister, and the foreign minister will definitely repay Your Majesty's generosity!" ”
Then he took the letter and carried it in his arms as if it were a treasure.
With this credential, his position in the Xiongnu is really as stable as Mount Tai.
It's not just about impressing him and entrusting him with important tasks.
Other nobles who were alone in the court would also respect and value him.
Come to think of it, such harsh conditions have been resolved by him.
He is not a talent, who is a talent?
Liu Che continued to smile, clapped his hands, and said, "In addition, in order to better work for the friendship between Han and Hungary, I have prepared some small gifts for the envoys......
After a while, there were four or five eunuchs, holding plates one by one, and came out.
Liu Che opened the first plate, revealing the contents of the plate, and said, "This is my edict. The messenger was Wusun Hou, and there were 10,000 households. If the envoy is wronged in the Xiongnu in the future, he can come to Chang'an to find me. I will keep my promise today! In addition, I also selected a site for the envoy in Chang'an, creating a 'Wusun Houdi' regulation like a king's ......"
This trick is played by the old Liu family very slippery.
Thinking that at the beginning, Lu Juan ran to the Huns.
Then, after Empress Lu came to power, he immediately ordered that Lu Juan's Chang'an Marquis Mansion should still be retained, even. Even the income of his marquis country was saved for him without a penny.
Later, when Lu Juan's mother and younger brother returned to Chang'an, they were immediately shocked by their eyes.
Their family's waiting house and family house in Chang'an are still exactly the same as when they left Chang'an, the furniture and decorations in the home are still as new, and the housekeepers and servants at home have not changed.
What touched them even more: even in the cellar. It was also piled up with gold - this gold was the income of the Marquis of Chang'an.
So, the old Lu family began to embark on the road of Erwuzai.
Similarly, there is Zhao Tuo, the king of Nanyue.
When Taizong, in order to envelop Zhao Tuo. Don't let him make trouble in the south.
Specially sent people to take all the members of Zhao Tuo's family to Chang'an, where they were clothed and fed. Glory and wealth, a lot.
Besides. He also sent people to repair Zhao Tuo's ancestral tomb and selected people to guard the tomb for his family. Until today, until now.
This treatment has never changed.
Thus, this was the beginning of the South Vietnamese vassal and the sending of the prince to Chang'an.
Therefore, the issue of Zhao Tuo and South Vietnam can have the opportunity and hope to be solved in Liu Che's hands.
Otherwise, if there is no foreshadowing, the Han family has no credibility with Zhao Tuo, and I am afraid that Han Yue will already be in the same room.
For Liu Che, if the problem can be solved with money, it is not a problem!
Not to mention this kind of face engineering and superficial articles.
It is difficult to repair a waiting house for canals and carvings, it doesn't cost much, and the annual maintenance cost is only tens of thousands.
Nominally, save him some gold, and just flicker.
And this price can be exchanged for a high-ranking Xiongnu nobleman who can transmit news and intelligence for the Han family for a long time.
It's worth it!
And the canal and the carving are difficult to hear, and the eyes are shining, and they can't help themselves.
A marquis of ten thousand households in the Han Dynasty?
This is equivalent to the lord of a part of the grassland, and the annual income is N times the income of most tribes on the grassland.
He swallowed his saliva vigorously, then knelt down and said: "Your Majesty's love, the minister has nothing to repay, only to die for Your Majesty!" ”
For both canals and carvings, the preferential treatment and favor of the emperor of the Han Dynasty to him are as warm as a spring breeze.
He was almost moved.
Such generous conditions were almost enough for him to sell his parents to the Han Dynasty.
As for Shan Yuting, of course, he can sell it without blinking an eye.
But that's just the beginning.
Liu Che lifted the second plate, revealing the inside, a carefully packaged jade box, which contained a golden mud-like thing that exuded an enticing fragrance.
"This is to forget the worries and dissipate ......" Liu Che blinked his eyes and said: "It can cure all diseases, can solve all calamities, eliminate all troubles, God has given me a miracle medicine, only I have it, I specially evened out a few catties and gave them to the messenger as a consolation ......"
And it was difficult to look at these mysterious plasters, and touched his head, a little incomprehensible.
But it does smell good......
And the appearance is also golden, yellow-orange-orange, with a gold-like color.
Is it really a miracle drug?
And the canal is difficult to carve, some do not believe.
Liu Che didn't care about him, and continued to move towards the next plate.
Just in his heart, Liu Che shook his head.
At the end of the day, human beings are so horrible and terrifying.
Many times, I know that I am going to open Pandora's box and release the devil.
But humans can't help but open it.
Or for profit, or for temporary pleasure, or for some ulterior secret.
But in short, Liu Che understands that he has released a devil.
For the endless years to come, this devil will poison the entire world.
It may even include his children and grandchildren.
All human beings on earth will not be spared.
No one dares to say that they are an exception.
Just like the Omi ghost animals, they brought the devil to the world and let it poison the world, poison and harm them and their offspring.
"But so what?" Liu Che said in his heart: "Even if I don't release it, someone will release it in the future!" ”
Moreover, the role of this substance in medicine is also irreplaceable.
Without it, the future of clinical medicine, especially surgery, would not be possible.
It is impossible for everyone to be Guan Gong, and you can drink and watch the doctor scrape around with a knife on your body.
The only thing Liu Che can do now is to strictly prohibit and forcefully stop its spread in China while he is alive.
By controlling raw materials, we achieve the goal of prohibiting illegal use.
But when he died, Liu Che felt that the guys who died would definitely be eager to try the taste of these devils.
Even if he lives, there will be guys who are not afraid of death who will dare to risk losing their heads to try.
"Let history judge all this......" Liu Che thought to himself.
Then, he uncovered the third plate, revealing its contents.
It was a beautiful, beautiful jade horse that is still beautiful.
It was supplied to Liu Che by the South Vietnamese country, and it is said that it took the South Vietnamese three years just to carve it.
Now, Liu Che has given it to him and it is difficult to carve.
In exchange for the greater good, of course.
Liu Che knew very well how to buy and win over an enemy nobleman.
The best policy, of course, is brainwashing.
Just like what the Zhuxia people have done for a long time, brainwash the enemy and the descendants of the enemy into the Zhuxia people, or at least the Zhuxia people who bring their own dry food.
The Han family is doing very well in North Korea and Huaihua now.
Korea, Zhenfan, and Hao people have gradually become sinicized, abandoning their original beliefs, systems and systems, and throwing themselves into the arms of Zhuxia.
However, this trick may not have an effect on the Huns, especially the Huns who are alone in court.
There is no choice but to use gold bullets.
Smash with money and benefits, until you smash the other party down.
As soon as he saw this jade horse, he was immediately attracted by it and was fascinated.
"It's really a baby...... and he licked his lips greedily, and sighed: "I'm afraid there is no such treasure even in Shan Yu!" ”
The Huns also had aesthetic and artistic needs.
The pursuit of art and the appreciation of beauty have existed since the time when human beings were still in primitive societies.
The murals in the caves of the ancestors and the stone pendants scattered on the ground and still unknown are all fully proof of this.
There's no one who doesn't like those shiny goodies.
Moreover, this kind of thing, anywhere, can be worth a lot of money!
"Your Majesty, how embarrassing is this......" He said awkwardly, but the expression on his whole face had betrayed him deeply.
"The envoy accepts the ......," Liu Che said with a smile: "There is a saying in my country: I will not be rewarded without merit, and I will send something to the envoy, not only out of the envoy's kind response, but also in the hope that the envoy can help me do something......"
"Your Majesty, please instruct ......" and said as he couldn't wait to carry the jade horse into his arms.
This thing is worth at least a thousand horses!
Liu Che smiled slightly: "Messenger, please sit down and talk to me in detail......"
The rebate has been given, but are you still afraid that the contract will not be negotiated? (To be continued.) )
