"Where did my sister meet the Han army? Could it be that this general fell in love with my sister?" Huanmeng immediately confirmed her idea, and then recalled that Huanyao looked at Liu Zhang with a face that she didn't even know she had expressed.
smile.
With that look on his face, if Huan Meng promised Huanyao to this Han general, his sister would probably not object.
Huanmeng will not force her sister to do anything she doesn't want to do, but now if it's your preference, Huanmeng is happy to match her. What's more, if her sister marries this general who seems to have a lot of power in the Han Dynasty, she will have a great influence on Dongye Kingdom.
The benefits are certainly unimaginably huge.
After Liu Zhang gave the order, he led his people back to the Sichuan Army's camp in Dongye City. Huanmeng ordered the Dongye soldiers to tie up Ao Gan and others and drag them into the prison. Ao Gan struggled and shouted: "You can't do this to me.
You can’t kill me. I am Prince Cheshi. Even if King Liu Zhang of Shu comes in person, you can’t kill me. You will regret killing me. You will regret it.”
Yao Gan yelled and was taken away by the Dongye soldiers. Liu Zhang seemed to have ignored his shouts. In fact, what Yao Gan shouted was not unreasonable. He was a chariot prince. Although after the chariot division split, the chariot class
The former country was much smaller than the former Cheshi, but after all, it inherited a large territory south of the Tianshan Mountains and could barely be considered a powerful country.
Generally speaking, a big man would not offend such a prince of a powerful country. If he were really an ordinary general, he would really have to ask the central government for instructions to kill him.
But who calls himself the greatest official?
Liu Zhang had his own considerations. The dispute between Che Shi and Dong Ye was none of his business, but what Liu Zhang wanted was a balance, an environment in which he could establish a Protectorate, so it was best not to have one family dominate.
Now that the driver is disabled, the situation where the driver's former country is dominant here is gone, and the Dongye Kingdom comes to behead Ao Gan. Then the Dongye Kingdom and the driver will fight to the death. This is the balance.
What the big man needs.
Everyone in Dongye, including Huanmeng, was stunned by his action of killing Prince Aogan. They did not expect this, and then they naturally thought of the benefits of this move to Dongye, and he eliminated Dongye's trouble.
Would you rather be surrounded by a wolf that could swallow you up at any time? Or would you rather be surrounded by an enemy who is even the same as yourself? The answer is obvious, not to mention that even if he doesn't kill Tou Gan, the driver will not let Dong Ye go.
Dongye would only be grateful to the big man and not care about this balance.
It would be easier to establish the Protectorate. The purpose of Liu Zhang asking Huanmeng about the strength of the chariot master was because he was afraid that the chariot master was still very strong. If he killed Duo Gan, he would continue to fight with the chariot master. But now he killed the chariot master.
It poses no threat to myself at all, and it also solves a major problem.
Cha Shi was the first country in the eastern Tianshan Mountains to seek refuge with Yarkand. I severely punished Cha Shi because I wanted the countries in the Western Regions to announce the return of the Han army and let the countries in the Western Regions know that betraying the Han and helping ambitious countries would be severely punished.
, which is conducive to the coverage of the prestige of the Han Dynasty.
From now on, those who have different ambitions when the Han Dynasty declines will have to think carefully.
To enhance the prestige of the Han Dynasty, to create an environment for the Protectorate, and to send favors to Dongye, it was three birds with one stone. Liu Zhang would of course kill Tou Gan.
Two days later, Huanmeng arrived at the Sichuan Army's camp. The Sichuan Army soldiers were packing their weapons and packing their bags. Huanmeng was a little surprised when the Sichuan Army generals came out and welcomed him into the camp.
"Is Your Majesty the Queen here? Liu Zhang is far away to greet you." Liu Zhang put down the map in his hand, stood up and smiled at Huanmeng.
"How can the people of a small country dare to greet the general of labor?" Huanmeng bowed to Liu Zhang. This queen is indeed different from the royal family of other countries. She is no different from the clothes worn by the people in the East Night. I don't know her identity. I really can't see it.
Come out she is the queen.
If there is one thing that distinguishes her from those other people, it would be that she is very beautiful. If Huan Meng is among the crowd, it would be difficult to recognize her because of her identity as the queen, but because of her beauty.
With her delicate skin, slim figure, and noble temperament, every movement on her immature face shows a mature beauty, which can easily make people around her distracted.
"Is the general leaving?" Huanmeng asked Liu Zhang in surprise.
"I'm getting ready to say goodbye to His Majesty." After Huanmeng sat down, Liu Zhang also sat down at the main seat.
"So fast?"
"I can't afford to stay." Liu Zhang smiled and said, "We are here to punish Yarkand. We can't stay in one place for a long time. Ten thousand people need to eat. How can we stay here? We have to go find food."
After defeating the Che division army, all the Che division's baggage returned to the Sichuan army, but this was far from enough. Liu Zhang did not want to ask Dongye Kingdom for it. First, Dongye Elementary School, and secondly, Dongye Kingdom still imprisoned thousands of Che divisions.
Prisoners, just raising this captive was too much for Dongye to bear. Liu Zhang had to resettle this captive as soon as possible, otherwise it would be too much for Dongye to raise him for a month.
Huanmeng knew what Liu Zhang meant by "looking for food", but the Dongye Kingdom was really very weak and could not support Liu Zhang's 10,000 troops. If he could provide a little food, Huanmeng would give it to Liu Zhang.
It's not that Huanmeng is grand or has a good impression of Liu Zhang. If you can make friends with a Han general and make good friends with the Han empire by using food, it's a great deal.
Thinking of this, Huanmeng was very grateful to Liu Zhang. At least Liu Zhang did not rob the Dongye Kingdom because the army was short of food. In the past, those countries, even the Yanqi Kingdom, came to protect Dongye, but that time they did not plunder a large amount of property.
"Nan Huanmeng wishes the general a safe journey. Huanmeng was injured two days ago and was unable to come. This time he comes to represent the more than 4,000 people of the entire Dongye Kingdom to thank the general and the Han Empire for their salvation. In addition,
…”
Huanmeng hesitated as he spoke, with a blush on his face. Liu Zhang was looking at the map and didn't hear a sound for a long time. Then he raised his head and asked, "Is there anything else your Majesty has to do?"
Huanmeng hesitated for a long time and finally said: "I came here this time hoping to achieve a marriage. I want to betroth Huanmeng to the general."
"Um?"
"No, no, no, it's Huanyao." Huanmeng nervously said the wrong thing and waved her hands quickly, her face turned into a piece of cloth stained by the girl's blush. Huanmeng has never done this kind of thing. Although she is a queen, the queen
The appearance was forced to be fake, because my father died too early, after all, I was only eighteen years old, and I was not married yet.
"Well, Huanyao is now sixteen years old. She has reached the age of marriage early, but she has never found anyone she admires. There are many girls in Dongye Kingdom and few boys, so it is difficult to find one. I asked the girl yesterday and I know that she has been attracted to the general for a long time.
No, it was love at first sight, so Huanmeng thought... if the general is interested, Huanyao can be a concubine for the general."
Huanmeng finally finished speaking hesitantly, and he let out a sigh of relief, finally saying it out.
Although Huanmeng did not know the relationship between Qu Lingchen and Xiao Furong and Liu Zhang, at Liu Zhang's age and status, Liu Zhang must have been married among the Han people, so they were said to be concubines.
Although Huanyao is the queen's sister, what is Dongye Kingdom? It is really flattering to say that it is equivalent to a town in the Central Plains. It is about the same as a township, maybe it is a bigger village.
For the village chief's sister to be paired with a general is really a high achievement. Huanyao would not be aggrieved to be the concubine of a man like Liu Zhang.
What's more, Huanmeng had asked Huanyao last night, and Huanyao shyly agreed. Although Huanyao did not fall in love with Liu Zhang at first sight, with the beauty of the two sisters Huanmeng and Huanyao, it was really difficult to see them in Dongye or south of Tianshan Mountain.
try to find.
As a general of the Han Dynasty, Liu Zhang's status was second to none. He could lead ten thousand elites and march thousands of miles to the Western Regions. He was a hero. And from meeting on the cliff to Liu Zhang saving the Dongye Kingdom and finally executing Ao Gan, all his actions were very impressive.
Huanyao's eyes.
Huanyao herself was very grateful to Liu Zhang and had a good impression of Liu Zhang. Besides, who doesn’t love heroes among beauties? After her sister told her, Huanyao agreed.
Liu Zhang was slightly stunned after hearing Huanmeng's words. He didn't understand the situation yet. It took him a while to react, but he was a little embarrassed.
"The Queen may have misunderstood. Miss Huanyao and I just met by chance in Tianshan Mountain. She took us out of Tianshan Mountain. I am very grateful to her. It can be regarded as friendship, and it can also be regarded as the friendship between Dahan and Dongye. Your Majesty, please rest assured. I am very grateful to Huanyao."
Miss Yao definitely doesn't covet you."
"Don't worry?" Huanmeng thought to himself. I won't worry if you don't agree. He bowed again and said: "General, this is not Huanmeng's intention, but my sister's own intention. Didn't I just say it? My sister is serious.
General Xinyi, I want to marry the general, if...if."
Huanmeng hesitated as he spoke, then gritted his teeth and said, "If the general feels that his sister's identity is not worthy of the general, then just pretend that Huanmeng never said so."
"Uh..." Liu Zhang didn't know how to answer for a while. Although the Dongye Kingdom was a small country and a big man didn't care about it, Liu Zhang still felt that it was not worth it to be accused of looking down on other people's countries in just one or two sentences.
At this time, he leaned down and whispered to Liu Zhang: "My lord, one more is not too much."
"Go away." Liu Zhang gave Huanmeng a cold look and turned to Huanmeng. He no longer wanted to mess with Huanmeng and said directly: "Your Majesty, I never meant to look down on your sister. You can also see that I and my
The soldiers are all very friendly to the people of Dongye.
I rejected your sister simply because I only have gratitude and friendship for her, and I believe that your sister can at best treat me the same way. It’s just that your sister couldn’t find a suitable man for a while, so she agreed to the marriage.”
Seeing that Huanmeng didn't listen, Liu Zhang added: "Besides, my life expectancy is no more than half a year."
"Ah?" Huanmeng started to listen to Liu Zhang's words, but she just said it was an excuse. The next sentence suddenly surprised her.
Liu Zhang explained casually: "It is because I am about to expire that His Royal Highness the King of Shu sent me to carry out a dangerous expedition mission, because in this way even if the expedition fails, an outstanding general will not be lost. So no matter what, Her Majesty the Queen really
For your sister’s sake, let’s pretend that this marriage has never been discussed.”
"The King of Shu is really ruthless, just like the rumors." Huanmeng said when he left the tent. He was blown by the wind outside and suddenly raised his head: "That's not right."
