Chapter 55 The smell is congruent
A few days passed in the blink of an eye. Shatilie and Heishan's injuries were almost healed.
Although riding a horse is a bit inconvenient, it is still possible to lie on the carriage and drive.
So Ying Zheng ordered that the Huns envoy be sent back as soon as possible to relieve Shatilie's homesickness.
After the edict was issued, Li Xin was ordered to lead a team of troops and escort the carriage out of Xianyang City.
Outside Xianyang City, Li Shui bid farewell.
In the entire Qin Dynasty, there were only two officials who appeared outside the city, Li Xin and Li Shui. The other courtiers either did not bother to come or were too lazy to come.
In short, no one seems to take these two envoys seriously anymore. Even Feng Chang has no intention of making any pretense about it.
Li Shui pulled Sha Tilie to the side and patted his shoulder affectionately: "We in Da Qin have an old saying, no one knows each other without fighting. There is also an old saying, a friend in need is a friend indeed."
"General Li Xin and I have been in tit-for-tat with you. I didn't expect that now that we are leaving, we are the only two to see you off. This shows the deep friendship between the two of us."
Shatilie nodded repeatedly and said submissively: "Yes, yes."
Li Shui added: "Remember when you first came here, you were cheering in front of you, and how majestic you were? At that time, all the officials in Xianyang were waiting to welcome you. Now that you have unfortunately lost power, they have all disappeared. It's still me and Li Shui.
General Xin is getting close to you. In the future, you must never forget our two friends."
Shatilie promised: "Definitely, definitely."
Li Shui patted him on the shoulder again and said, "I'll see you off a thousand miles away, but we must say goodbye eventually. Let's go."
Shatilie looked at Xianyang City behind him and thought wildly: "Thousands of miles?"
When the two were about to get on the carriage, Shatilie suddenly remembered something and hurried over again, whispering to Li Shui: "When we came, there were more than a hundred Huns. Now there are only two of us left.
How can I explain this?"
Li Shui said: "Isn't this simple? Just say that I was robbed and killed by the Donghu people."
Shatilie nodded in agreement, thanked him, and got into the carriage.
Along the way, both Shatilie and Heishan were a little silent.
When they came, they talked about everything, but when they returned, there was a slight embarrassment.
Heishan coughed dryly and said: "I remember that the king is straightforward and likes to talk. Why is he becoming more silent now? It seems like he has changed."
Shatilie was suddenly startled: "Is he hinting at me? Has he discovered my change?"
Along the way, Shatilie was careful to hide himself. He never dared to drink more water because he was worried about being seen while urinating.
He didn't get out of the carriage very much, because he was worried that his limping walking would arouse Montenegro's suspicion.
But now, Heishan was staring at him with a strange look on his face, and his smile was very hateful.
Shatilie thought for a while and said, "I have gained a lot of knowledge when I went on a mission to Qin, and I don't want to act like I did in the past."
Heishan said with a look of relief: "If your Majesty thinks so, I will feel relieved. The humiliation is nothing, as long as you can sharpen your temper, it will be worth it."
Shatilie's heart suddenly became cold: "It's over, he knows. He knows that I have been humiliated. What else can I say, it can sharpen my temper, but it is worth it. My ancestor, it was not you who suffered the castration anyway.
, of course you can say it’s worth it.”
Shatilie was furious, but he didn't want to do anything to Heishan. Heishan didn't make his words clear, so he had to pretend to be stupid, but the way he looked at Heishan became more and more unkind.
Montenegro felt his emotions and was a little puzzled: "Did I say the wrong thing?"
Next, Heishan still wanted to find something to talk about and wanted to communicate with Shatilie. But Shatilie always ignored him.
Montenegro is a little depressed.
His body was already mutilated, and at first, he thought about dying. But gradually, his ideas changed. In life, there may not only be the pleasure of marrying a wife and having children.
He could still make great achievements and be admired by thousands of people. So, like Shatilie, he turned his attention to power.
What Shatilie wants to fight for is the position of the Chanyu. However, the Montenegro bloodline is not noble, so he does not dare to think about the Chanyu's position. He just wants to be the Chanyu's important minister and influence the affairs of the Huns.
Touman's Chanyu is already old, so he wants to have a good relationship with Shatilie. After all, Shatilie is Touman's favorite son and is likely to inherit the throne in the future.
Heishan originally thought that the two of them would be particularly friendly since they shared a common hardship in the Qin Dynasty. Who knew that Shatilie became more and more indifferent to him? It was really strange.
Heishan thought for a while and whispered to Sha Tilie: "The villain is in Da Qin..."
Shatilie suddenly had a severe headache. Now that he heard about Da Qin, he felt uncomfortable all over his body. However, he kept talking about this Black Mountain.
Shatilie pointed to the outside of the carriage and said: "Qin soldiers are still here, so be careful what you say."
Heishan nodded in agreement.
A few days later, the carriage swayed under the Great Wall.
This Great Wall was built during the reign of King Zhaoxiang. Now a Qin army is stationed here, always wary of the Huns knocking on the border.
Li Xin stood on the Great Wall, looked at the vast grassland in the north, sighed and said: "If your Majesty had given me three thousand cavalry, I would have defeated the Huns long ago. Why would the soldiers abandon their homes and careers to station here?"
"Fart, I will give you three thousand people now, do you dare to go?" A loud shout came from behind.
Li Xin turned around and saw a tall general, and immediately smiled: "It's General Meng."
The person who came was none other than Meng Tian, who was stationed in the north.
After Li Xin saw Meng Tian, he was very affectionate. He put his arms around him and said, "You and I are close friends of life and death. We used to attack Chu together, but we were defeated. We were chased by Xiang Yan like a lost dog...
…”
Meng Tian was helpless when he heard this. What happened to Li Xin? Have you never felt embarrassed?
Li Xin didn't feel embarrassed, but Meng Tian did. He changed the subject and asked, "Where is the Huns envoy?"
Li Xin pointed to the carriage not far away and said: "What can the Huns envoy see? As soon as we leave the Great Wall, we will reach the border of the Huns. Whether these two people are dead or alive has nothing to do with us. Let's go, let's go
Go drink."
Meng Tian was a little helpless and was forcibly pulled into the military tent by Li Xin.
Li Xin poured himself a glass of wine first, and then said with great disgust: "Is this also called wine? I drank fairy wine in Xianyang City, and that is the real wine."
He took another mouthful of rice and spat it out with a pop: "Is this also called rice? The steamed buns I ate in Xianyang City are called fairyland delicacies."
Meng Tian's fist felt a little itchy, and he thought to himself: "Is this guy here just to show off? What kind of fairy wine or fairy delicacies? Is this too exaggerated?"
Seeing his doubtful expression, Li Xin said, "Do you still remember that when I was defeated by Chu, I was seriously injured and hid in the mountains?"
Meng Tian said helplessly: "Remember."
Li Xin patted his thigh: "I met a strange man there named Huaiguzi, and he cured my injury. Later, when the Qin Dynasty unified the six countries, Huaiguzi traveled to Xianyang, and I recommended him to the palace to refine elixirs."
"This man is really a strange person. He once met an immortal in a dream. The immortal wine and delicacies he made made people forget to leave. Not only that, Master Fu Yao also had a sore on his back, which was also cured by Huaiguzi..."
While Li Xin was drinking, he talked enthusiastically about the anecdotes of Huaiguzi.
But Shatilie and Heishan were completely forgotten by him.
The two Huns envoys had been waiting in the carriage for four hours.
Without Li Xin's order, they did not dare to cross the border and return to the Huns.
They did not dare to get off the carriage without Li Xin accompanying them.
Because they were surrounded by Qin soldiers, who had been fighting against the Xiongnu all year round. Everyone hated the Xiongnu so much that if they saw the two of them, they might accidentally kill them.
Shatilie was very anxious and felt that he couldn't hold it in any longer. Ever since he was tortured, he had always been unable to exert his strength there.
When I was getting irritated, there was suddenly a strange smell in the carriage. Not far away, Heishan looked embarrassed: "My lord, I made you laugh. I am really..."
