Liu Che waved his hand, and Taichang Dou Pengzu under the steps immediately understood, walked to the hall, and bowed to Liu Che first, and then turned around, facing the east.

Zongzheng Liu Li also stood up, standing in the opposite direction of Dou Pengzu, facing the west, and the two of them held a silk book that had been drawn up at the same time, and read: "The Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager pardoned: The respect of the lady, the son of Xiancheng...... Today, there is a Xiongnu woman Xia, and her morality is good...... Han and Hungary are about brothers for generations...... Ling is a lady, flattering the Son of Heaven, dreaming of sleeping at night, not forgetting! ”

Under the hint of the maid beside him, although Xia Rouge didn't understand, he still kowtowed three times very meekly, and then took the letter of forgiveness.

At the moment when she received the letter of pardon, except for Liu Che in the hall, all the courtiers who watched the ceremony bowed down to her: "The ministers meet Madame!" ”

In the Han system, the lady is more than the princes and kings, and the lord is regarded as the prime minister, and the status is higher than that of the princes.

In essence, a chauffeur beside the emperor has no worse status than Jiuqing.

The woman at the emperor's pillow, even if it is just a young envoy, must bow when the foreign minister visits—not to respect the woman's status, but to respect the lord she serves.

When the procedure reached this point, Liu Che stood up and ordered: "Come on, take Mrs. Xia to Yongyan Hall to rest!" ”

"No!" Wang Dao immediately received the order.

As a lady, Xia Rouge has the right to enjoy a complete separate palace as her private domain.

In addition, the maids, eunuchs and all kinds of servants have long been prepared for her in the palace.

And that eternal temple. It's Xia Rouge's future residence, if nothing else. Where will she spend the rest of her life - unless she can live longer than Liu Che, then. There was a son who was crowned king.

Seeing Xia Rouge disappear outside the Zhangde Hall surrounded by maids and eunuchs, Liu Che turned his attention to the Xiongnu nobleman who was ordered by the military minister Shan Yu to serve as the ambassador for marriage and relatives standing in the hall.

Liu Che flipped through the letter of the Hun that had already been handed to him in front of the case, found the person's official rank and name, smiled, and said: "Gudu Hou has worked hard all the way, please Gudu Hou convey my greetings to your lord for me!" ”

At the same time, Liu Che was also a little surprised in his heart.

Bone Duhou?

This is the aristocratic position at the top of the pyramid in the Xiongnu country!

Its status is equivalent to that of Jiuqing in the Han Dynasty, and it is a close confidant of Xiongnu Shan Yu. It has always been the most powerful nobleman with a different surname in the Xiongnu.

More importantly, the Marquis of Gudu was in the Xiongnu and was the minister in charge of the Shan Yu Guard.

The Huns sent a bone capital marquis to the Han family to marry this time, which shows the importance they attach to this marriage!

And this Xiongnu nobleman named Lan Tuoxin, from his ability to serve as the marquis of Gudu, Liu Che can also guess that he must belong to the core members of the Lan clan, one of the three strongest different surnames in the Xiongnu country except for the royal family, and it is even very likely that he is the current or next chief of the Lan clan.

That's interesting!

The Tang Dynasty poet Gao Shi once wrote a poem: Silver saddle jade embroidered canthridical arc. Every prostitute Yao broke the bones.

Equating hussars with bones may be a figure of speech of the poet.

But, at least, it can also be seen that in the Huns. The status of the Marquis of the Bone Capital.

Such heavyweight Xiongnu nobles, looking through the entire history of the Han Dynasty, only two of them have ever been to Chang'an.

One of them was Yu Dan, the son of a military minister. Yu Shan Zheng failed in the struggle and went into exile in the Han Dynasty.

The other person was a nobleman who was sent to Chang'an by the Huns as a hostage. It should probably be Shan Yu's brother or son at that time.

However, this Xiongnu nobleman, like Yu Dan, is a short-lived ghost. He died not long after arriving in Chang'an.

And now, at this point in time when the Xiongnu was strong and the Han Dynasty was at a disadvantage, none of the top Xiongnu nobles like Guduhou had ever come to Chang'an!

In history, Yu Dan came to the Han Dynasty and took refuge in exile, and another 'nobleman' came to surrender on his knees.

From these two examples, Liu Che quickly thought: Is this Gudu Marquis coming to Han this time just with the task of giving a marriage?

If you say this, let alone Liu Che, I'm afraid even a three-year-old child won't believe it, right?

So, Liu Che immediately labeled the other party as a 'ghost fetus', intending to let Wang Dao keep an eye on this guy's every move in Handi.

Lan Tuoxin didn't know that he had been targeted by Liu Che.

He bent down slightly, and said respectfully in a rather blunt Chinese dialect: "The emperor's good intentions, the foreign minister must convey it to my lord, and in addition, the foreign minister also brought my lord's greetings to the emperor's majesty!" ”

"Thank you for your greetings......" Liu Che smiled, but he was quite wary of this Xiongnu Gudu Marquis who knew Chinese.

Today, at least on the surface, the Xiongnu often beat the Han family.

In such a situation where the Han is weak and the Huns are strong, a top Xiongnu nobleman can actually speak relatively fluent Chinese!

This is the same as when a high-ranking official of the Emperor Mi who spoke fluent Mandarin swaggered into Beijing in the early days of the reform of later generations, either this person is a pro-China faction, or he is an extremely anti-China person!

Who, except friends and foes, would sit idle and learn a language that might never be used?

Perhaps this idea is a bit extreme.

But as an emperor, Liu Che has never been afraid to speculate on the actions of others with the greatest malice.

Liu Che looked at the Huns' Gudu Hou, and said with a smile: "Gudu Hou has been tired all the way, and he must have worked hard, come here, prepare wine and food for Gudu Hou!" ”

In essence, this is an eviction order.

Lan Tuoxin could naturally hear it, but he didn't have any dissatisfaction, bowed slightly, and said: "Thank you for the emperor's good intentions, and I hope that the plough heaven will bless you forever!" With that, he made a Hun etiquette, and then retreated under the leadership of the eunuch.

Liu Che watched him disappear into the hall, and then turned his head and said in front of the ministers: "The royal road." Send someone to keep an eye on this Bone Marquis, and it is impossible to make sure that someone follows him at twelve o'clock! ”

As soon as these words came out. The ministers present in the hall only felt a chill on their necks.

And this is exactly the effect that Liu Che wants.

Only by beating grass can you scare the snake! Otherwise. Liu Che was not sure what kind of secret mission this Gudu Marquis carried to come to Chang'an.

Liu Che didn't believe it, he was just here to get married!

Anyway, Liu Che thought that it was absolutely impossible for him to send a Jiuqing to run to the Huns, just to send a princess to marry such a ridiculous thing!

Looking at the ministers, Liu Che was very sure that what he had just said would definitely reach the ears of that Gudu Marquis!

……………………………………

It's late at night.

Accompanied by several Han officials, Lan Tuoxin returned to the official residence arranged for him by the Han Dynasty.

As soon as he entered the mansion, Lan Tuoxin clapped his palms.

More than a dozen Huns of different statures immediately ran over and crawled on the ground. They vied with each other to kiss Lan Tuoxin's toes.

In the eyes of the Han people, this may be an act that should be despised.

But in the Xiongnu, this was extremely strict etiquette.

Generally, only the master's cronies and slaves are qualified to do this, in other words, those who are not Lantuosin's slaves are not qualified to do so.

"This is the territory of the Han people, don't do it in the future!" Lan Tuo Xin said to the slaves he had carefully selected.

"Yes, great master!" The slaves agreed.

And at this time, it was right outside the door. A man dressed as a subordinate quietly put his ear to the wall and pricked up his ears to listen.

Unfortunately, this man listened to it for a long time. I didn't understand what the people inside were saying!

"They don't use the Hun dialect!" This person was shocked, as an elite of the Han family who had been to the Xiongnu and had also participated in the rebellion against the Xiongnu aristocracy. He judged it almost immediately.

"It's not Donghu or Yue's language......," he judged.

The Donghu language and the Yueshi language are also the common lingua franca in the Xiongnu-controlled area. Even the Xiongnu language comes from the Donghu language family, which is a variant branch of the Donghu language family.

As a veteran fine work. He has lived in the territory of the Xiongnu for several years, and he basically knows some.

But it's clear that the other party is not using these popular languages, but another, a language he doesn't know!

The Xiongnu were essentially a hodgepodge of peoples and tribes living in a vast territory, and these tribes had a variety of languages.

Especially the tribes in the west are a tribe and a language, and even the Xiongnu nobles are difficult to tell which tribe a certain language belongs to.

Only Lan Tuo Xin knows where this language came from.

This is the aristocratic language of the powerful kingdom of Dawan in the Western Regions, and it is said that its ancestors brought it from the far west.

In addition to the Dawan people, even in the Xiongnu country, there are very few people who can speak this language.

In order to master this language, Lan Tuoxin spent three years studying.

Because, he is the nobleman in charge of the direction of Dawan, body poison and enemy Yueshi in the Xiongnu country, learning this language, Lan Tuoxin is so that when he goes to Dawan to loot in the future, he can communicate with the nobles of Dawan.

As for those slaves, they are all loyal slaves who have served Lan Tuoxin since childhood.

Such loyal slaves were closer than brothers and more reliable right-hand men than their parents in the Xiongnu. Lan Tuoxin has been sensible since he was sensible, and he will take them with him no matter what he does.

In other words, Lan Tuoxin will, and they will naturally do too.

Therefore, in this language, there is no communication barrier between the master and the slave.

Therefore, Lan Tuoxin didn't have to worry about the fact that the wall had ears at all, and he said without scruples: "My hounds, now, I need someone to lurk in the capital of the Han Dynasty to deliver news to Shan Yuting!" ”

I have to say that although the Huns were ignorant, they were not stupid.

As a successful nomadic empire, it has its own reasons for success.

In particular, more than ten years ago, after the Xiongnu royal family who was married to Wusun finally helped the Wusun people pit the Xiongnu, the Huns were no longer superstitious and their women would definitely be their own people.

As for the possibility that the Beihai clan may retaliate, the Xiongnu have long discussed it in China.

The final conclusion is: no matter whether the Beihai clan will fight back, marrying a princess to the emperor of the Han Dynasty will not lose money!

First of all, the huge dowry team can well place and arrange all kinds of spies, and can provide the Xiongnu with many Han Dynasty internal information that they could not grasp before, and even. It is also possible for these people to learn the advanced smelting and casting technology of the Han Dynasty!

For the iron-smelting technology and casting technology of the Han people, the Xiongnu. It's always been salivating!

And. The Xiongnu were also the beneficiaries of the Han smelting technology - in that year, Lu Juan and Han Xin betrayed Liu Bang and fled to the Xiongnu with a large number of subordinates.

These people brought the pinnacle bronze smelting technology in China at that time, and it was with the help of these people that the Xiongnu Empire could have an invincible army that crushed the steppe tribes - in front of a group of nomads who were still using bones and stones as weapons, the Xiongnu army using bronze weapons was really too buggy!

However, since the previous Emperor Taizong Xiaowen came to power, the Han family began to eliminate chariots in the army. The popularization of iron weapons and the use of all-iron weapons, therefore, the Han army gradually began to have the ability to counterattack.

And the people of insight among the Xiongnu naturally paid close attention to these actions of the Han family.

Lan Tuo Xin is one of them.

Lan Tuoxin has always believed that invincible cavalry and sophisticated equipment are the foundation of the Xiongnu Empire.

It was Lan Tuoxin who finally persuaded the military minister Shan Yu to send 5,000 slaves and 3,000 cavalry as dowries to the Han Dynasty as a gift - of course. The slaves were all taken from the Western Regions, and the cavalry was also drawn from the small tribes scattered on the grasslands, except for those spies who were deliberately planted in, at most there were only a hundred real Huns.

And made such a big blood. Lan Tuoxin's picture, of course, is also very big!

"What I want is the iron-smelting technology and the corresponding casting technology of the Han Dynasty!" Lan Tuoxin remembered the Haikou he boasted in front of Shan Yu.

As long as you can learn the advanced smelting and casting technology of the Han people. Then, the Xiongnu Empire can continue to be strong.

For this. Hitch a worthless so-called single daughter, plus thousands of captured slaves and cavalry. It's a good deal!

……………………………………

The next day, early in the morning, Liu Che got up from Xia Rouge's healthy and charming ketone body, and only felt refreshed.

Looking down at the exotic girl with some tears under him, Liu Che was filled with the pleasure of being a conqueror.

In particular, this girl belongs to the kind of beautiful girl who clearly has the characteristics of Europa's mixed race.

As for the disadvantages of language barrier and inability to communicate, they can be ignored in the face of Papapa.

Men and women snap, as long as they can hear the gentle whispers of the sobbing and singing, do you need to communicate in words?

But then again, in this era, the Cypriots, Greeks and ancient Aryans, who are characteristic of the Europa race, were very common in the steppes, the Western Regions, and India.

According to historical records, there are a large number of Cypriots in Wusun.

Later archaeological discoveries have also confirmed that there were many white tribes with obvious Europa characteristics living in Xinjiang and the Mongolian plateau before the Common Era.

There have even been unearthed, complete dried corpses.

In addition, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Sun Quan is nicknamed the blue-eyed child, which shows that not only the Zài Europa race exists outside China, but also gradually entered China with the prosperity of the Han Dynasty......

What's even more bizarre is that before Liu Che crossed over, he had seen a news that even the No. 2 pit of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shi Huang had found a white Europa buried with him......

Liu Che now confirms that this qiē is real.

It's not just the girl under him who has the characteristics of a white Europa.

Even many of the slaves now housed in the Shaofu are, according to the reports of the officials below, very strange - blonde hair and blue eyes, with thick hair all over their bodies.

These slaves made Liu Che's mood very happy.

Because, these obviously exotic slaves can be sold for a good price!

Think about it, the Kunlun slave trade in the Tang Dynasty made the big food merchants make a lot of money!

Even the slave trade with the brown people of Southeast Asia and the third brother's family flourished!

And these unprecedentedly rare slaves, Liu Che believes that there will be many nobles and businessmen with bulging pockets who will be willing to pay a large price!

As for selling human beings as commodities?

As long as he is not a Han traitor, Liu Che has no psychological pressure at all!

Even Liu Che felt that a nation that could not be a slave trade was not an excellent nation!

This world has always been a world of the jungle, backward will be beaten, and the weak should be destroyed!

No matter how dirty and limitless things you do, you can always wash it away, right?

"Only dead Indians are good Indians...... Liu Che walked down from the bed, and immediately a maid stepped forward and put clothes on him.

"Go and invite the Shaofu Order and the internal history to the palace!" Liu Che instructed Wang Dao, who came forward: "Let them prepare the files related to the examination!" ”

The first session of the examination has come to an end, and Liu Che naturally wants to order the review and review work.
