Chapter 427 belongs to the stubbornness of Wusun Kingdom
Liu Che finally acquiesced...
In fact, from Liu Che's decision, Zhuang Qingzhai was the one who was really inspired.
A big enemy ended, and the Grand Secretary-General gave him a boost, and he had one more teammate and one less enemy. If you can, it would be comfortable to do this many times.
He most hopes that Liu Che can downplay his impression of theft of money due to the smooth advancement of the new policy. Then what he left for Liu Che must be a good side.
That night, he immediately returned to the prime minister's mansion with excitement, asking Zhu Maichen, Wang Chao and Bian Tong to have a banquet together to celebrate the storm.
Everyone was filled with joy. As they were drinking three or five bottles of wine, their faces were red.
But among the four people present, Zhu Maichen seemed less optimistic. He knew that the emperor was not so easy to forget, and would not be abolished because of one or two. He would always remember what should be recorded, because once the verdict was overturned, Liu Che would always settle the accounts one by one to ensure that the measures were correct.
Moreover, the court is not the autumn moon in Pinghu. The water waves are not prosperous, and maybe... the boat will capsize wherever it is. Once it capsizes, it will always be afraid of the earth.
At night, when everyone stood up to say goodbye to the Prime Minister, Zhu Maichen's eyes shrank slightly, leaving only a sentence that made everyone sober: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, whether the wind moves or the flag moves, both can be determined as movements. Please be careful, sir!"
However, when the day is calm, when it moves into the depths of spring and then to summer, it seems that everything has really passed and everything is very calm.
Just after Guyu, good news came from the Sanguans of Shanglinyuan: the re-examination and popularity of Sanguans' money completely eliminated the popularity of counterfeit coins.
Judging from the situation in the counties in the capital, the three officials have accurate shapes and sufficient quality. Especially the casting methods are exquisite, which are difficult to imitate. The private casting style that emerged from counties and countries has come to an end.
The General Officer, who was led by Kong Jin, actually left Beijing and took office one after another, and blossomed everywhere.
What made Liu Che happy was that Kong Jin was well aware of his preferences for employing people. After selecting the talents, they were all young and elite, energetic and able to do practical things. Moreover, these people were from a merchant family and were familiar with the way of trade.
A memorial from the Sinong Prefecture said that the financial situation of the court has gradually improved under the regulation of Sang Hongyang in recent months and has gained a lot of new income!
"Hahaha! This Sang Hongyang is really a talent! Yes, that's what it means!"
When Liu Che reads these memorials every day, his mood is like the late spring wind, and gradually merges into the warmth of this beautiful summer heat.
In such a sunny and prosperous season, Zhang Qian, who was ordered to go on a mission to the Western Regions again, came back smoothly.
The country remains the same, and the mountains and rivers are new.
This huge Han delegation and dozens of people from the Wusun Kingdom formed a large and relaxed crowd. When they walked down the Xianyang Plain, Zhang Qian was also recalling the feeling of his first return.
However, soon, the bitterness and loneliness had long disappeared, and with the extension of the territory of the Han Dynasty and the strength of its strong national strength, it became invisible.
Not to mention that they went all the way west this time, it was unobstructed, wherever they went. Due to the Huns' escape, the Western Regions no longer had the shadow of the past, and the people were even more gloriously welcoming and seeing each other.
Now the array of the Wusun Mission opposite Hengqiao was welcomed by the Wusun Mission. His immense respect also made him find his dignity as an envoy of the Han Dynasty.
Zhang Qian secretly looked at Kun Qian, the envoy of Wusun Kingdom beside him, and secretly laughed in his heart that King Kun Mo, the short-sighted. He was a mere lord of a small country, who was occasionally interested in His Majesty because of his ignorance of the Han Dynasty, and he proposed to join forces to defeat the Huns and ignored it.
Can you enjoy the country for a long time by being in a corner? Joke! Stubborn! A brief contempt flashed through Zhang Qian's eyes, and he immediately regained his usual enthusiasm.
He pointed to the front and said, "Please look, the one standing in front is the big luggage specially sent by His Majesty to welcome the envoy, the right inner-sermon Su Zong and the vassal state."
Kunqin said "Oh" and opened his mouth wide. He looked at everything in front of him in surprise. The spectacularity of Chang'an not far away, the majesty of the Han official, and this great karma made him feel like he was in a dream.
Li Xi was no longer as physically as before, but he still remained as a general and the stability of an old minister. When Zhang Qian introduced Kunqian, he stepped forward gracefully and generously as a representative of the Han Dynasty, using the etiquette of the Han Dynasty to express his welcome to guests from afar.
"Please go to the inn to rest. Your Majesty will meet the envoy in the front hall of Weiyang Palace tomorrow."
Li Xi invited Zhang Qian to take a car and guide the mission to walk straight to Chang'an City.
On the way, Zhang Qian felt ashamed and said to Li Xi: "When he was on a mission this time, he failed to convince his subordinates in Wusun. The subordinates felt ashamed of Tian'en and had no face to meet the elders of Chang'an..."
Li Xi smiled bitterly for a moment, stroked Zhang Qian's shoulder and said, "Your envoy went to the Western Regions twice, and you have been sleeping in the open all the way, demonstrating the prestige of our great Han Dynasty. Why do you feel ashamed of it!"
When Li Xi asked him if he had found Nama and his son, Zhang Qian shook his head sadly: "When he left, the officials specially built signs with stones there, but this time he went there, the desert was vast, and it had been buried in the sea of sand. I wonder what happened to her and her children in the end."
Li Xi was silent for a while and said, "I heard that the envoy is about to return. I have already resigned to Your Majesty and recommend you as the Great Deed."
He told Zhang Qian that in the years since he left Chang'an, many things happened to the court.
After Li Cai's death, the current prime minister became Zhuang Qingzhai, while the censor Zhang Tang was imprisoned for suspected stolen and sold money from the tomb of the late emperor.
After these things, the emperor also lost weight day by day and no longer had ambitions.
As soon as he heard this, Zhang Qian's heart suddenly became heavy. He wanted to go to pay homage to His Majesty immediately. He had a lot to say to Liu Che.
The next day, Liu Che summoned Kun Chen, the envoy of Wusun Kingdom in the front hall of Weiyang Palace.
Kunqi first conveyed King Kunmo's greetings to him and presented a list of Wusun artifacts, fruits and vegetables, and war horses.
Liu Che issued an oral order, and the Duan was appointed as the Shaofu Temple of the State Council, and was in charge of selecting the Han Dynasty cloth, silverware, etc., and when Kunqu returns to the country, they will give them back together.
He specifically instructed Zhuang Qingzhai not to be arrogant when the envoy of Wusun Kingdom stayed in Chang'an, and to take him everywhere to see him, so that he could learn more about the customs and customs of the Han Dynasty.
This is also a kind of intimidation.
Some reality,
Only when you see it will you feel awe.
"Only good neighbors can the country prosper, only when there are distant friends can they make friends, and only when there is mutual communication can they open their eyes. This... is the foundation of my divination of the Western Regions."
After seeing off the envoy of Wusun Kingdom, Liu Che left Zhang Qian alone. As soon as he entered the Xuanshi Hall gate, Zhang Qian knelt down.
"I failed to convince the Wusun Kingdom to return to the east and be attached to the inner ranks. I have to be punished by Your Majesty. I deserve to die!"
