After lunch, the safari officially began.

In order to increase the interest of the Son of Heaven when he was hunting, Shanglin ordered that more than 100 deer be released from the deer park, and hundreds of rabbits were also transferred from other places to enrich the prey in the hunting grounds near the pickaxe pond.

Otherwise, in this first month, most of the wild animals in Shanglin Yuan have gone into the deep mountains, and the Son of Heaven goes there to hunt to find prey?

It's just that in this way, the fun of hunting is greatly reduced.

Animals that are kept and bred in captivity are far less flexible and vigilant than wild animals.

Fortunately, Liu Che didn't come here for hunting today.

After casually shooting two prey, Liu Che found an opportunity to ride his horse in front of Wei Xin.

"Minister's letter to see Your Majesty......" Wei Xin was so excited that he immediately turned over and dismounted, bowing his head and bowing.

"Wei Xin, right......" Liu Che sighed and looked at the young man.

still remembers that the year before last, Liu Che took great care of this brother-in-law in his previous life.

not only let Wang Dao arrange a position for him that was easy to achieve, but also intentionally or unintentionally let Zhang Tang and Ji Di take this person over for a while.

But it's a pity......

Adou who can't help him!

Liu Che shook his head in his heart.

Although there were too many things later, Liu Che didn't have time to pay attention to Wei Xin, and he didn't know what was going on, in just two or three months, he was quickly marginalized from the backbone and core of the imperial womb, and was even almost kicked out of the door.

But, no matter what the reason, because of whom is the reason for today's situation.

In Liu Che's opinion: I gave you such a good opportunity and such a good position. With so many convenient conditions, you still can't mix it up. That only shows that you do have a problem with your ability.

Such people. It's not worth continuing to invest.

Liu Che skewed his gaze slightly, landing on the figure following Wei Xin.

Wei Ya'er......

Holding the horse, Liu Che's eyes swept over every part of her body.

In this world, no one can remain rational forever, in fact, people are emotional animals.

Liu Che is naturally no exception.

He looked at Wei Ya'er directly, his eyes were full of domineering and aggressiveness, and he seemed to want to strip her naked immediately.

In this day and age. in this world.

It is no exaggeration to say that no matter what kind of woman it is, as long as Liu Che hooks his hands, they only have to untie their clothes and sleep wholeheartedly.

So there's absolutely nothing wrong with anyone.

Even Wei Yaer herself.

She bowed slightly, and Ying Ying said a thousand blessings: "Concubine Wei's visit to His Majesty, may His Majesty live a thousand years!" (Note 1)

Liu Che laughed, stepped forward, and helped this woman from her previous life. Reaching out to lift her chin, he stared at her little face that was trembling with excitement, nervousness, fear, and fear, and said, "King Xiang has a dream, does the goddess have a heart?" ”

King Xiang has a dream. Who doesn't know the allusion to the goddess's unintentionality?

Wei Ya'er didn't even think much about it, and immediately said, "Concubine Pu Liu's posture." Can enter the eyes of His Majesty, the blessing of this concubine ......"

Liu Che smiled. With a slight force in both hands, he picked up Wei Ya'er. Head to the pavilion not far away.

The so-called only great heroes can be true colors, and they are true celebrities.

The emperor wants to sleep with a woman, does he still want to fall in love with her?

Let's be funny!

I think that at the beginning, Wanshijun Shi Fen was still a small person, but he was just an attendant beside Emperor Gao Liu Bang, because he served Liu Bang very carefully, and Liu Bang admired him.

Liu Bang decided to reward him with something, and it was best to give him a promotion.

However, Shi Fen only has the ability to serve the emperor, and it is a mess to lead troops to fight and give advice, at least at that time.

So, Liu Bang asked Shi Fen, do you have any sisters?

Shi Fen replied: Fen has a unique mother, unfortunately blind, has a sister, and can play the piano.

So, Liu Bang ordered his sister to enter the palace as a beauty, and by the way promoted Shi Fen to Zhongjuan, Shi Fen's family was able to enter Qili, thus laying the foundation of the prosperous Han family for nearly a hundred years, and the four generations of descendants were listed as two thousand stones, and the first official family of the Han family was called Wan Shijun.

In other words, in this era, the emperor is willing to sleep in your family's women, wives, and concubines, which is to look up to you and want to promote you.

And what's interesting is that what Liu Che is doing now is actually not much different from what Liu Bang is doing.

Jianling Hou Weixuan, Liu Che has always wanted to put this Taifu in his previous life, a good old man who was famous in the government and the opposition, in a more important position.

For example, lieutenants, lieutenants.

Because, Wei Juan is easy to control, and he has no ability and ambition, so he will not threaten Liu Che at all.

What's more, this person has been driving for Emperor Taizong for more than ten years, is familiar with the government and the opposition, is well versed in various unspoken rules, and has him to cover on the bright side, and many things can be done openly.

For example, all the officers above the rank of captain in the northern and southern armies were replaced by people whom Liu Che himself could trust.

But here's the problem.

Jianling Marquis Weijuan is the shallowest among the courtiers.

After all, Wei Juan had been beaten into the cold palace by the first emperor a few years ago, and he didn't care about it.

That is, during the Wu Chu Rebellion, because he was able to lead his troops to rebel, so as to recover, and he was made a marquis because of his military achievements.

But Wei Juan's column marquis title has moisture.

He led tens of thousands of troops to fight against Zhou Pi, a diner under Liu Bi, in Xu Pei, and made military achievements.

Although the Xiapi army led by Zhou Pi was once a big problem for the Han family.

But when the rebellion of Wu Chu was pacified, this matter was not counted like this.

What's more, Wei Juan did not defeat Zhou Pi, captured and killed this person, and even the wolf who was once forced by Zhou Pi was unstoppable, and it was not the king of Chengyang who led the army to support, and the direction of the war may not be known.

This is in the Han family, which only focuses on military merit, and Wei Juan suffers a lot.

Therefore, after returning to the dynasty, he did not even hold any position except for the feudal marquis.

Because, one thing, the court is really out of pits, you know, Wei Juan has been a servant of Emperor Taizong and a person who has served as Jiuqing, what do you want to appoint him to do under the Jiuqing Yamen or the vacant position of 2,000 stones, you are humiliating him. Or are you forcing him to die?

Second, Liu Che has just ascended the throne. What is needed is to fight steadily and take power first.

But now it's different.

After the throne is secured. What Liu Che wants is to have monopoly on power and the Sacred Heart to be arbitrary.

This requires several echo bugs and marionettes to take on some key positions.

For example, the lieutenant, the lieutenant, the imperial history, the imperial history, and the prime minister's long history.

Wei Juan's conditions fully met Liu Che's needs.

But the question is, why did Liu Che promote him?

There has to be a reason!

Otherwise, others will not be convinced!

Especially those generals!

Therefore, it is a matter of time before Nawei Ya'er, and the palace banquet a few days ago is just an introduction to prompt Liu Che to act in advance.

………………………………

With a long whine, Wei Ya'er's entire body was as tense as a slingshot, and her snow-white body was on it. Sweaty.

Liu Che also let out a long breath, and then, gently reaching out, hugged Wei Ya'er's plump and snow-white delicate body, and caress her full mountain peaks wantonly.

On the edge of the collapse, several shy maids, with red faces, gave towels, and even more maids knelt on the collapse. For Liu Che and Wei Yaer, clean their bodies.

Such a thing, whether it is Liu Che or Wei Yaer. I'm used to it.

In feudal society, let alone the emperor, it was an ordinary landlord's house. That's the same treatment.

Liu Che also made love with the concubines more than once, and by the way, he made a maid.

Like the time of the first emperor. Tang Ji, who gave birth to Liu Fa, the king of Changsha, for the first emperor, was originally a maid who served Cheng Ji......

"I can get His Majesty's mercy. The concubine has the honor to ...... for three lives," Wei Ya'er had to lie on Liu Che's chest like no one, and said gently.

Liu Che smiled slightly, kissed her lightly on the face, and said, "Today, Concubine Ai will return to the palace with me, and I will let people prepare for the canonization!" ”

"Your Majesty has mercy, and the concubine is grateful!" Wei Yaer was extremely moved when she heard this, and immediately offered her lips to Liu Che.

……………………………………………………

Liu Che is enjoying the time of glamorous blessings.

Thousands of miles away, the Xiongnu were alone in the court, and at this moment they were already at the foot of the Wolf Juxu Mountain.

This place is far from the border of the Han Dynasty, and it is said that it is not close, but it is not far away.

The cavalry marched in a hurry, and it took about a month to reach the Han border and seize the Great Wall.

In the past few decades, Shan Yuting usually held a grand meeting at the foot of Wolf Juxu Mountain, and this year is naturally no exception.

All the Xiongnu chiefs, servant tribal chieftains, and slave tribes in the east were to carry the best cavalry of each tribe, as well as the best horses and livestock, to be offered to Shan Yu.

The Hun Empire, like a chain strung with a rope.

It seems to be loose, but as long as Shan Yuting's Jiwei is still there, the rope is extremely strong, and no one can break free from its control.

What's more, today's Xiongnu Empire is in full swing.

Last year, Da Dan Yu and the emperor of the Han Dynasty made peace, trade, mutual markets, and the eastern tribes all benefited from this.

In particular, the population of the Lou Fan, Bai Aries and other descendant tribes has almost doubled, and the livestock herd has nearly quadrupled.

Correspondingly, more than eleven tribal chiefs did not appear at the meeting.

These chiefs, who were lucky and reacted quickly, only became minor nobles and even slaves in the big tribes such as Aries, Lou Fu, and Hutu.

As for those who still want to resist, the heads have long been made into drinking vessels, and the teeth have been turned into jewelry for tribal warriors such as Aries and Lou Fu, and have been hung on their chests as a symbol of their bravery.

From this point of view, the Huns are somewhat similar to the orcs in later Western fantasy novels.

At this moment, at the foot of Wolf Juxu Mountain, if there is a traverser here and observes from a distance, I am afraid that I will also think that I have crossed into a different world similar to WOW.

Because, the Hun warriors gathered here are indeed not much different from the orcs.

If in the Han Dynasty, handsome guys are more popular, then in the Xiongnu, it is the other way around.

The uglier the face, the more respected.

Especially those warriors whose faces were covered with scars and were as hideous as monsters, they were feared and awe-inspired by everyone.

In the Xiongnu, the bravery of the individual and the scars on his face were almost directly proportional.

The Huns have a tradition that when a comrade-in-arms dies in battle, or a close relative dies in battle, they will use a knife to cut a bloody mark on their face, so that tears and blood will flow together.

In other words, these warriors with scars on their faces. It was the pillar of the Xiongnu Empire, the so-called Condor Archer.

And at the moment. The more than 10,000 Hun cavalry gathered at the foot of Wolf Juxu Mountain, almost all of them had criss-crossing scars on their faces.

If anyone familiar with the structure of the Xiongnu Empire is here. You can definitely recognize this cavalry at a glance.

It is the arrow of the Xiongnu Shan Yu, the spear of the Xiongnu Empire.

Since the founding of the country, in every battle, they have been in the front and retreating in the rear.

They used the blood of the Donghu people, the Yueshi people, the Han people, and the countries of the Western Regions to witness their courage and strength.

They are the direct subordinate Wanqi of the Xiongnu Zuoxian King.

Starting from Maodun, this elite cavalry directly under King Zuo Xian has created one legend after another.

Last year, this 10,000 riders. He also destroyed four or five countries in the Western Regions, conquered more than ten countries that were not subordinate, and broke his wrist with his younger brother Wusun in the past, and the result was a complete victory for the Hun cavalry.

The Wusun people lost their armor and had to retract their claws that stretched out to the Western Regions.

With this cavalry, no one can shake the prestige of the Xiongnu alone.

At this time, the cavalry from Wuheng and Xianbei were in front of this 10,000-strong horseman. Shivering, even sweating, almost paralyzed.

"Wuheng, Xianbei, two lowly slave tribes!" A stocky Hun nobleman in wolf's clothing. loudly scolded the patriarchs of Wuheng and Xianbei: "What Da Danyu has set for you is that there are 5,000 horses and 30,000 sheep a year. Of the standard of 3,000 slaves, you have only handed in less than 2,000 horses. 10,000 sheep, and more than 1,000 slaves! Is it true that my Great Huns' arrows are not sharp enough? ”

"Forgiveness of sins!" The patriarch of the Wuheng clan also collapsed on the ground with a single ass. Kowtowed and said: "Last winter, it snowed heavily in the area of the Cheap Tribe, and many livestock and slaves froze to death, all of which are owned by the Cheap Tribe!" Please be a big account and make up all the contributions! ”

The patriarch of the Xianbei tribe, Gut, also said: "The same is true of the lowly department......

Last year, Wuheng Mountain and Xianbei Mountain suffered an ice disaster, and of course the Huns' big boss knew about it.

However, the Huns are too lazy to care if you Xianbei Wuheng suffers or not!

The Great Huns do things and don't need anyone's explanation.

Do what you want, do what you want, kill if you want.

On this prairie, the Huns often fought among themselves even among themselves, and the blood of the killings flowed like rivers, not to mention the remnants of Donghu such as Wuheng and Xianbei, the shameful slave tribes.

If it weren't for the fact that in the past few decades, these two slave tribes have always been very respectful and diligent, and the Xiongnu army would have leveled their lair long ago.

"Humph!" The big pawn snorted: "I don't care about you!" ”

"Da Shan Yu said, since your tribe has suffered a disaster and there are not enough livestock, then take slaves to make up for it, a sheep is counted as a young slave, half a man, a third of a woman, a horse is worth five young slaves, three men, and two women, before this autumn, send them to Shan Yuting, otherwise, my Great Hun Iron Cavalry, step through your Wuheng Mountain and Xianbei Mountain, and drive you to Beihai to be with those shameful sinners!"

Yeli was suddenly shocked, hugged the feet of the big pawn, and begged: "Big pawn, okay, this slave, the cheap part really can't catch it!" ”

Gut also cried: "The cheap department is too!" ”

"What's going on?" The big boss sneered and said: "The barbarians in the east are mostly slaves, and in previous years, you also caught 10,000 slaves to pay off the debt!" ”

The Huns never spoke of mercy, they only recognized and respected the strong.

The strength is not enough, such as Wuheng and Xianbei, and they don't even have the qualifications to be servants, just an ATM in Yuting.

If it weren't for Wuheng and Xianbei, who had been using a large number of livestock and slaves to satisfy Shan Yuting's demands, the Huns would have exterminated these two tribes long ago.

Of course, on the other hand, Wuheng and Xianbei did run far and were very poor.

Therefore, the Xiongnu will tolerate their existence.

Ye Li cried and said: "The big danghu doesn't know, there is something wrong in the east, the army of the Han Dynasty, to the territory of the Hao people, built a city, and now, it is said that they are also catching slaves, and the cheap department really can't grab it, and they don't dare to rob slaves with the husband of the Beihai clan!" ”

"Beihai Yanshi? Han dynasty? Da Danghu's eyes became solemn, and he said, "I'll go talk to Da Shan Yu and take a look......"

It's not that he wants to let go of this Wuheng and Xianbei.

It was really a matter between the Beihai clan and the Han Dynasty, and it was beyond his power.

Without Shan Yu's permission, he didn't dare to make his own decisions.

The political struggle of the Xiongnu was simple and cruel.

The winner takes all, and the loser all dies.

Even sometimes, many big people just make Shan Yu unhappy, and they have to be sent to Beihai to raise sheep. (To be continued......)

PS: Note: In the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, concubine is the common self-title of all women in front of the emperor (except for the empress dowager and the empress dowager).

For example, in the famous story of Ti Ying's rescue of his father, Chun Yu Ti Ying's recital to Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty said, 'The concubine's father is a minister, Qi Zhong is called Lian Ping, and now he sits in the law and is ......punished'

In the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ban Chao's sister Ban Zhao also described herself in the recital to the Eastern Han Dynasty emperor that "the concubine and brother of the Western Regions are all protecting the ......", etc., and there are many aristocratic women, in the recital to the emperor to the "concubine" and "concubine" to claim themselves, unearthed cultural relics, there are many official wives in the tomb unearthed similar to the "concubine so-and-so seal" and other evidence.
