Chapter 6: A gentleman does not build a dangerous wall
Qiluo Ben was completely disappointed. When she saw that Shiboguli did not cut down, she was surprised. She had already turned to kneel beside Chu Huan, looked up at Shiboguli, and said in a trembling voice: "Father, if you want to kill someone, even if you kill your daughter, your daughter will never complain. You... don't hurt Chu Huan!"
Shibguli looked over and looked at Qiluo's eyes. The beautiful big eyes were filled with helplessness and begging, but deep in his eyes, there was a sense of perseverance.
Shibguli closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and suddenly threw the scimitar to the ground, turned around and knelt down on one knee to Mahazang, bowed deeply, then stood up, and left without looking at Qiluo in full view of everyone.
Mahazang carried his hands and golden clothes, which made him look extremely majestic. He had thick eyebrows and a slight lock, stared at Chu Huan for a few seconds, and finally said, "I don't regret having a brother like you, but I hope you can regret today's decision one day." Without further ado, he turned around and was about to leave. Seeing this, Xue Huaian hurriedly shouted: "Regent!"
Mahazang carried his hands on his back, but did not look back, but stopped.
"The Regent, but I don't know when the princess of your country will be able to...!" Xue Huaian asked carefully.
Mahazang still did not look back, but sneered: "I have given you a princess from Xiliang. Do you want me to lose another princess?" He snorted coldly and left.
In the hall, everyone looked at each other. Soon, the right priest Jin Gulu had already stood up and said, "Today's meeting ends here, everyone should step down first."
The ministers stood up and lined up. Before leaving, they could not even look at Chu Huan.
Chu Huan got up and saw Qiluo looking at the direction where Shiboguli was leaving. He knew that Qiluo was in a sad mood now. He reached out to help Qiluo up. Qiluo immediately threw herself into Chu Huan's arms, and tears flowed down her face.
Jin Guru glanced at Chu Huan with a strange look, but he did not come out of the hall gate, but went around to the back of the hall. The ritual officer Gusa Heiyun came over and bowed to Xue Huaian with his arms, and then sighed: "The Prince Consort, the Regent is a person who values love and friendship. He wants you to create great things with him and appreciate you very much, but he may not have thought that you would reject him in public. The Regent's current mood will definitely not be very good."
Chu Huan smiled faintly, and hugged Qiluo without saying anything.
Xue Huaian frowned and said, "The great ritual official, both countries have agreed to marry the princesses and become brotherly countries, but now the regent means...!"
Gusa Heiyun said, "Mr. Xue, I believe you understand what the Regent means. Lord Chu was originally my son-in-law of Daxiliang, and now he is going to go back with you. Do you think the Regent can send the princess to you again?" He glanced at Qiluo and sighed, "And Qiluo Talanger is also my Princess Xiliang, but he married Prince-in-law Chu. This can be regarded as having an in-law between you and me."
"But if your princess is not there, my Qin princess will not come." Xue Huaian was embarrassed: "Your politely, if you want to say that, your country cannot act according to the agreement. If you break the agreement first, my Qin prince will naturally not abide by the agreement."
Gusa Heiyun thought for a while before saying, "Let's discuss it now." Xiang Chu Huan asked, "When will the prince consort be ready to return to Qin?"
Xue Huaian hurriedly said: "Of course, the faster the better. If possible, we will go back today and we will pack up and we will set off tomorrow."
Gusa Heiyun said, "When I go and report to the Regent first. If the Regent allows it, I will plead with the Regent to send a team to send your delegation to the desert border..."
Chu Huan thought of something in his heart and immediately shook his head and said, "You are polite, you don't need to bother the soldiers of your country." But he suddenly thought that he would take Gusa to leave Qingluo City with him. Once the soldiers of Xiliang accompany him, he might see the flaws and cause great trouble.
...
...
Mahazang sat on the chair, and the guards of the palace guards around him didn't even dare to make a sound because everyone could see the cold look on the Regent's face.
He held a golden wine bag in his hand and drank several large gulps in succession. The wine fell from his mouth and wet his thick beard, but he ignored it.
Although he is now the Regent, Mahazang is still very free and easy in his actions, regardless of the details.
After Jin Gulu bowed in, he signaled the guards and palace servants around to retreat, and walked lightly to Mahazang. He was about to salute, but Mahazang said, "Sit down and talk!"
After Jin Gulu sat down next to him, Mahazang put down the wine bag, looked at Jin Gulu, and asked, "Has Mr. Chu Huan ever thought that Chu Huan would reject my king's title today?"
Jin Guru pondered for a moment before saying, "The old minister didn't expect that the title of the Regent was rare. Chu Huan... was indeed ignorant of the current affairs!"
"Do you think I am very angry?" Mahazang said lightly: "You are wrong. Although the result is not what I want to see, I am not disappointed with such a result."
Jin Gulu was stunned.
"I, Mahazang, are arrogant and proud in this life." Mahazang smiled faintly, "There are not many people I can like. When I saw Chu Huan in Qin, I felt a sense of intimacy. You don't know that when I was in Qin, the officials who looked at them were almost all people who were worth living. Although Chu Huan had a low position, he stood out. Such a person should not belong to Qin. His perseverance and ruthlessness in his bones should belong to us in Xiliang!"
Jin Gulu sighed: "The old minister dared to say that Chu Huan's backbone is rare among the Qin people."
Mahazang touched the thick beards wet by the wine and sneered: "Since he is going to leave, I will let him go. If his road in Qin is bumpy and not valued, he will definitely remember the value of the Japanese king to him, and he will definitely regret today's decision. If he is valued in Qin, it is even more I would like to see..." He clenched his fists: "There is no successor to Qin, and he will raise his troops eastward to me. If there is no real opponent, it would be too lonely!" A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Chu Huan, I just hope that you are really capable and become my opponent on the battlefield."
Jin Guru said: "The Regent was granted the title of Qin envoy at the court meeting today. After they go back, the Qin emperor will definitely know that the two countries will not be peaceful in the future!"
"Peace?" Mahazang laughed and said, "I was born in this era, and there was no peace. What I need is to surrender!" Staring at Jin Guru, he slowly said, "And... I must show this attitude!"
Jin Gulu narrowed his eyes.
"This time, King Xiao was defeated and defeated, and all the troops of the Western Liang Dynasty would think that it was a crime of right and wrong." Mahazang looked solemn: "I want to stabilize people's hearts. If I show a peaceful attitude towards Qin, I think there are many people who are dissatisfied with their thoughts. I know very well that they do not need peace with Qin. What they need is the next war with Qin."
Jin Guru seemed to understand something: "The Regent ridicule the Qin State in the court today, so that everyone can understand the Regent's thoughts?"
"I am not afraid of any guard against the Qin people." Mahazang's eyes showed disdain, "But I want the Xiliang tribes to be loyal to me. I want them to understand that sooner or later I will take them to continue the Eastern Expedition."
"The Regent refused to marry a princess, so did he plan?"
"I am a great Western Liang, how could I use women to find peace?" Mahazang sneered: "From the beginning to the end, I have never thought of marrying a princess. Using women to seek peace can only prove that the men in this country are cowards, and even women cannot be protected well. How can I have the face to create great things?" He leaned on the chair and put his hands on the chair handle: "The emperor of Qin wants to use their princess to marry, which has proved his incompetence and stupidity, and I... will never be compared with him!"
...
North Court Palace.
After Chu Huan returned to the mansion, he discussed the return matter with Xue Huaian, Xuanyuan Shengcai and others. This trip was originally intended to marry Princess Xiliang, but Mahazang obviously had no intention of that. Xue Huaian knew that he could no longer fight for it, but for him, this was not a bad thing.
If Princess Xiliang doesn't go, the princess of Daqin will naturally not come either.
The key is that the marriage between the princesses was originally intended to allow the northwestern soldiers occupying Xiliang to retreat and relieve the empire's danger. However, this time, the civil strife in Xiliang did not have to pay too much price. Xiliang itself had to withdraw its troops, which of course was what the Qin people were willing to see.
Chu Huan was happy that Qi Luo could eventually return to Qin with him, but in a dilemma, there was also a Gusa Concubine who had to think of a way to take it out.
Mahazang was able to bring Qiluo back to Qin. To be fair, Chu Huan also felt that Mahazang was still very open-minded, but if the affairs of Gusa Concubine were exposed, Mahazang would probably not be so easy to talk to.
The goods I had to carry on this trip were not a lot of goods. In addition to the betrothal gifts that should have been used to marry Princess Xiliang, Chu Huan also got a fortune from Puzhao Temple. Moreover, the Xiliang official who participated in the wedding on the same day also sent a lot of money. In total, there were more than a dozen large boxes. To transport these boxes back to Qin, it required a lot of vehicles. Chu Huan had to ask people to go to Qingluo City to buy a camel.
The Qin people were actually very clear that one day would be more troublesome when staying in Xiliang for one day, so they all quickly prepared and left this place of right and wrong as soon as possible. According to Xue Huaian's words, if a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, this Qingluo City is a dangerous wall, so you should avoid it quickly.
When Xue Huaian and others left, it had already agreed that the next morning, the delegation would gather at the North Court Palace and then set off to return to Qin. When Xue Huaian and others left, Chu Huan thought of the pair of Western Regions sisters and felt a headache. He had not been to see each other these days, but at this time, it would be impossible to see him.
Janice and Brauncy were actually waiting for Chu Huan's arrival. They were confused about their future and didn't know what fate would be next. When Chu Huan appeared in front of the two, they rushed to meet them. Brauncy asked straight to the point: "Chu, have you come up with any way to help us?"
Chu Huan did not answer immediately, sat down on the chair, pondered slightly, and finally said: "I can take you out of Qingluo City. If you want, I can hire some warriors in Qingluo City that can send you back to China, and can give you enough money..." He frowned slightly, and glanced at the beautiful pair of sisters: "In addition, what else do you need me to do for you, just speak!"
