Chapter 102 North Tower with Hanging Skull

It was really a waste of time to watch the mountain. We had seen the Beique Palace Gate early in the morning, but it still took us more than half an hour to reach the foot of the Beique Palace.

At this time, there were two officials waiting at the city gate.

"The subordinates pay their respects to Huo Shizhong and Dian Shuguo!"

The officials from the vassal state who were leading the way quickly bowed down when they saw the two men.

Zhang Yue's eyes narrowed when he heard the name "Huo Shizhong".

He looked in front of him in surprise, "Huo Shizhong, is it Huo Guang?"

He guessed correctly that the servant Huo was none other than Huo Guang.

He didn't dare to delay and hurried forward to pay homage, "I'm going to pay my respects to the servants, and to pay my respects to Dian Shuguo!"

Zhang Yue bowed down while secretly looking at Huo Guang.

Contrary to Zhang Yue's imagination, Huo Guang is not tall, a little shorter than ordinary people.

He has a darker complexion, a long beard on his face, and a crown on his head, which adds a bit of majesty.

"I have heard Zhang Jun's name for a long time, and today I finally get to meet him in person."

Dian Shiguo on the side laughed.

Then he introduced himself

"My name is Tian Qianqiu. In the past, the masters of your family were also my good friends. It's a pity that we parted ways in Chang'an that year and never got to see each other again!"

Zhang Yue's heart moved, "This Tian Qianqiu actually knows my father..."

Huo Guang said with a serious face at this time, "Dian Shiguo and Zhang Sima should finish their business and reminisce about the past!"

After Huo Guang finished speaking, Zhang Yue and Tian Qianqiu immediately became solemn.

Tian Qianqiu straightened his robes, stepped forward and said, "Please Zhang Sima take a look at the heads of King Loulan and King Shan..."

Zhang Yue immediately ordered people to take out two human heads from the wooden box.

"These are the heads of Loulan King and Mountain King!"

Zhang Yue pointed at the two heads and said.

Although it has dried, you can still see the long image clearly.

After the officials from the tributary country checked that it was correct, they stood aside holding the wooden box.

"Let's enter the city!"

Huo Guang was still serious in speech, and his performance was indeed similar to that recorded in later generations.

After the group entered the city, they did not go directly to Weiyang Palace, but turned to a side road.

"Are you going to the West Market?

Zhang Yuezheng was confused, but Tian Qianqiu took the initiative to explain, "Your Majesty has ordered that the head be hung in the barbarian mansion first!"

Zhang Yue understood clearly that this was to frighten the barbarians.

Therefore, it is necessary to punish those who offended the Han Dynasty, so that the barbarian states can remember new lessons."

"This is a warning to all countries. Don't even think about killing Han envoys and offending the Han Dynasty, let alone do it!"

Manyi Residence is adjacent to Gao Street to the south and Chang'an West Market to the north.

The news of the great victory in the Western Regions was sent back by Pegasus, the red-feathered messenger, more than a month ago, and the tributary country began to promote the matter at that time.

At present, in addition to envoys from small states in the Western Regions such as Gumo, Shule, Shache, Khotan, Wensu, Weitou, and Qiuci who came to meet the emperor of the Han Dynasty, there are also envoys from Yuezhi, Anxi, Kangju, and Da

Wan, the envoys from the three Koreas who were stranded in the Han Dynasty, plus the chiefs of Guiyi from the five vassal states, various Qiang heroes, etc., all gathered at the barbarian mansion at this time.

The Han Dynasty was usually very kind and generous to the envoys from various states who came to the dynasty, and gave them various rewards. However, the barbarians were all fearful and unethical people, so they had to give them a beating from time to time.

This time the emperor planned to beat them with the heads of King Loulan and King Shan.

Therefore, Jinwu Zhizhi surrounded the barbarian mansion early this morning, and the Dian Kingdom informed everyone that they were not allowed to go out.

The envoys from the barbarians didn't know what happened, so they all gathered in the square of the barbarian residence and started talking.

When Zhang Yue followed the two of them to Man Yi's mansion, it was still a noisy scene.

This also gave Zhang Yue a comprehensive and intuitive understanding of the power of the Han Dynasty.

Tian Qianqiu apologized, passed the two of them, and walked forward first.

"Everyone, don't panic!"

Tian Qianqiu asked his followers to put the two heads on the spear points, raise them high, and asked Jiu Yiling to announce loudly.

"King Loulan colluded with the Huns and ambushed the officials of the Han Dynasty. King Shan was cruel to the people, attached himself to the Huns, and attacked our Han army. These two kings are extremely contrary to the laws of nature, and they are guilty of great evil!"

"Today the Han Dynasty is going to kill the enemy by trapping Chen and defeating the enemy, beheading the king and his head. Today it is appropriate to hang the head among the barbarian mansions, all the way to the North Palace, to show the thousands of miles!"

Although he always had a smile on his face, to the envoys from various countries, he was a naked intimidation and intimidation.

When everyone calmed down, he continued,

"South Vietnam killed the Han envoys and slaughtered them into nine counties; King Wan killed the Han envoys and hung his head on the North Tower; North Korea killed the Han envoys and killed them immediately."

"Any barbarians from all directions who dare to set an example will have their country destroyed, their species exterminated, and their descendants exterminated..."

At this time, the army of the Han Dynasty was at its peak, burning the palace of the Xiongnu, slaughtering the city of Luntai, marching on the fortress of Dawan, joining the capital of Yelang, attacking the gate of Korea, and pulling down the flags of the two Vietnams.

Therefore, the barbarian envoys and hostages below listened to Tian Qianqiu's declaration. Not only did they not dare to refute, but they all trembled and sweated all over.

Especially Prince Qiuci kept wiping his sweat.

He looked at the heads of King Loulan and King Shan and seemed to see his own future.

"No, I must write a letter back to my country and tell my father that I will never go against the Han army."

While Prince Qiuci was thinking about his thoughts, Zhang Yue had been invited to the stage.

"This is Zhang Jun, the warrior who killed two kings..."

After Tian Qianqiu introduced Zhang Yue, he was about to leave with Zhang Yue.

Huo Guang suddenly said, "Please Zhang Jun, please say a few words!"

Zhang Yue was stunned and looked at Huo Guang thoughtfully.

Then he stepped forward, drew his sword, and flicked a ball with a smile, "I am Zhang Yue, and Tian is the commander of the Han Dynasty...Everywhere the sun and moon shine, and wherever the Han soldiers go, are all Han soil, and all barbarians inside and outside dare to call them

All soldiers will be killed!"

"color!"

"Good luck!"

At this time, many Chang'an people had gathered outside the barbarian residence.

When everyone heard Zhang Yue's words, they all burst into excitement and cheered.

Even the soldiers who were guarding Jinwu couldn't help shouting.

All the barbarians in the barbarian mansion were silent. It took them a while to react, and one by one they began to congratulate the great Han for defeating the country and killing the king.

Some envoys and protons even began to express their loyalty, willing to become the lackeys of the Han Dynasty and completely cut off all contact with the Huns.

Among them, the most intense ones were the newly appointed King of Shanshan and the Prince of Qiuci.

The Yueshi, the envoys of the two great empires of Parthia, began to reassess the Han army's determination to take over the Western Regions.

…

After leaving Manyi Mansion, Zhang Yue and his party returned to Beique.

Zhang Yue straightened his clothes, got off the carriage with Huo Guang and walked forward. At this time, the ruler of the empire was waiting for him in Weiyang Palace...

Entering the palace gate, towering palaces appeared in front of him.

"This is the atmosphere of the Han family!"

Zhang Yue was deeply shocked. Compared with the majestic Weiyang Palace, the later Forbidden City in Beijing had no momentum at all.

Zhang Yue followed Huo Guang step by step, bypassing the towering palaces and arriving at the front hall of Weiyang Palace.

Although the emperor mainly worked in Xuanshi Hall on weekdays, most of his usual court meetings were held in the front hall of Weiyang Palace.

At this time, the hall was surrounded by Lang Wei commanded by Guang Luxun.

The ministers entered the hall one by one under the guidance of the visitor.

Huo Guang and Tian Qianqiu also said goodbye to Zhang Yue here. A man came forward and led Zhang Yue into the studio.

Zhang Yue was not qualified to go to the palace at this time, so he could only wait in the studio to be summoned.

There were two other people waiting with him. Judging from the appearance, they were dressed as subordinates of the vassal state.

When Zhang Yuezheng was feeling a little impatient, he suddenly heard a shout from the hall.

"Trend!"

The emperor arrived, and Zhang Yue was both excited and nervous now.

Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty, who was known as the one emperor through the ages, was actually not far away from him.

That is not the emperor in the book, but the real one...

After waiting for about half an hour, a voice finally sounded.

"Zhaoluntai Yingtian Sima Zhang Yue comes to the palace!"
