Welcome to the suburbs thirty miles away

"Your Majesty, this is General Hussar's request to confer Wan Nian, the son of the Lord of Chu, as the vassal king of the Han Dynasty. I am here to invite the Holy Judge!"

Although Huo Guang had fully grasped the power of Chang'an, he still showed full respect for the emperor.

The emperor asked absently: "Is Wusun Kun not Yuan Guimi? Why do you suddenly want to canonize Liu Wannian again?"

At this time, Huang Menling reminded him in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Wusun Kunmo Yuanguimi was killed by the rebels some time ago when he was suppressing the rebellion..."

After hearing this, the emperor remembered this matter. He looked at the memorial sent by Huo Guang and said bitterly: "These rebellious officials and traitors!"

Huo Guang and Huang Menling couldn't help but twitch their faces when they heard this.

"Please ask your Majesty to make a holy judgment!"

Huo Guang reminded him again.

At this time, the emperor calmly opened the memorial.

"General, do all the princes and princes know about this matter?"

Huo Guang said: "This matter has not been informed to the ministers or princes!"

The emperor said: "In that case, let's let the ministers gather for discussion first!"

Huo Guang heard this and said again: "Wusun is a big country in the Western Regions, and the throne cannot be left vacant. Your Majesty, please make your decision early!"

When the emperor heard this, anger rose from the bottom of his heart, but when he saw Huo Guang's eyes, all the anger disappeared, and he only felt a chill coming from his heart.

The emperor managed to calm down his mind, and then asked Huo Guang: "What does the general think should be done?"

Huo Guang's expression softened again at this time. He looked at the emperor and said, "Why do you think General Hussar is writing this memorial?"

The emperor was surprised when he heard this and said: "Could it be that Marquis Yunyang wants to turn the Western Regions into a county?"

Huo Guang said: "Your Majesty is indeed smart!"

The emperor smiled and said: "I am still young, so I should learn more from the general!"

Huo Guang looked at the emperor with a complex expression: "Your Majesty only needs to be close to the virtuous ministers and far away from the villains..."

The emperor said: "I have been taught, and I will obey the general's teachings!"

Huo Guang frowned when he heard this.

At this time, the emperor asked again: "Does the general think that what the general of the hussar wants to do?"

Huo Guang said: "How dare I speak nonsense about this matter? Please ask Your Majesty to make a judgment!"

As soon as Huo Guang said this, the emperor already understood Huo Guang's inner plan, which was clearly to force him to express his position.

The emperor looked around and sighed in his heart: "Marquis Yunyang has long-term thoughts... I think it's okay!"

Huo Guang nodded with satisfaction when he heard this: "If so, your Majesty, please issue an edict clearly!"

The emperor said: "But, in this case, the prime minister still needs to come!"

At this time, Huang Menling on the side stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is already waiting outside the palace for the decree!"

The emperor was startled and said: "Why don't you invite the prime minister into the palace quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Menling glanced at Huo Guang first, and after getting Huo Guang's agreement, he shouted:

"Invite the Prime Minister into the palace!"

Yang Chang, who had been waiting outside the hall for a long time, heard the sound and walked in quickly.

After Yang Chang sat down, the emperor took the initiative to confer Liu Wannian as the vassal king of the Han Dynasty.

"I also ask the Prime Minister to draft Liu Wannian's title as soon as possible..."

"Chen Jin has obeyed the imperial edict and may your Majesty live forever!"

…

The news that the emperor would confer Liu Wannian, the second son of Princess Jieyou, as the vassal king of the Han Dynasty, suddenly caused a sensation in Chang'an.

Suddenly there were voices discussing this matter everywhere.

Dr. Zhu Gongqing also received the order and will hold a meeting in three days to draft a title for Liu Wannian.

After receiving the news, Zhang Kun immediately sent the letter back to the Western Regions.

Three days later, Zhang Kun and a group of ministers and doctors gathered at the Prime Minister's Mansion to discuss Liu Wannian's title.

After some debate, a title of "King of Sai" was finally drawn up for Liu Wannian.

The reason why there is such a title is because the place where Wusun is now based is said to be the place where the people were sent by the Emperor of Zhou during the Zhou Dynasty, so he got this title.

There will be a meeting on the first day of July in the fourth year of Yuanfeng.

The prime minister read out to the crowd the emperor's edict to make Liu Wannian king.

I have been given the order of Heaven, and I have admired it as a precept, and used it to establish vassal vassals and auxiliary affairs, so as to show my close relatives and sages. It is also the order and code of the ancient sages and kings.

My brother has been filial to friends for ten thousand years, he is generous and kind, gentle and respectful, his actions have branches and leaves, and his ways have no traces of phosphorus.

Practice the meanness of a gentleman, study the principles of a virtuous man, only love good things, and do not have ambitions close to fame.

Mu Jianping's order and virtue, and the hope that Zeng Min will arrive, it is appropriate to build thatched soil to protect our country and our family, and to be a permanent solid rock.

It is to use it to achieve destiny, to use it as a badge...

Now I canonize him as King of Sai for ten thousand years.

It is advisable to order a supervisor to choose a day, prepare a list of rituals and orders, and the master will carry them out.

Huo Guang then stepped forward and appointed Su Wu of the vassal state in the name of the emperor as the envoy, and Chang Le as the deputy envoy to the Western Regions to hold the canonization ceremony for Liu Wannian on behalf of the emperor.

…

On the other side, Princess Jieyou and her party finally arrived in the Luntai area.

In order to show Princess Jieyou's contribution to the Han Dynasty over the past thirty years, Zhang Yue personally led people thirty miles out of the city to greet her.

In order to show respect for the Lord of Chu, Zhang Yue summoned all the officials in the Western Regions Protector's Mansion who were over six hundred stone tall.

"Your Majesty... Lord Chu is here!"

A scout came to report in advance.

Zhang Yue and others immediately cheered up after hearing this.

"Wear armor!"

Zhang Yue gave the order, and the guards immediately took action.

Zhang Yue also covered himself up with the help of the guards.

As soon as everyone got dressed, the carriages of Princess Jieyou and others appeared in front of them.

"Line up!"

Following Zhang Yue's order, six hundred soldiers quickly formed a formation to receive the review.

"General Hussars and Protector of the Western Regions, Marquis Yunyang, has met the Lord of Chu!"

Zhang Yue first met Princess Jieyou with Han rites.

Princess Jieyou first returned Zhang Yue's bow, and then paid her respects to Zhang Yue again: "The Queen Mother Wusun of the lower country pays homage to the general of the upper country!"

Zhang Yue accepted Princess Jieyou's gift calmly and waved his hand, saying: "Master Chu, please inspect our Han army in the Western Regions..."

Princess Jieyou nodded and led Liu Wannian to the guard under the leadership of Zhang Yue.

With a "boom" sound, six hundred guards stepped forward at the same time.

After all, Liu Wannian was a child and he was so frightened that he almost cried.

Princess Jieyou's followers were also shocked, but Princess Jieyou herself remained calm.

"Master Chu, please!"

Zhang Yue made a please gesture with his hand.

Princess Jieyou nodded and followed Zhang Yue past the guard.

After the ceremony, Princess Jieyou couldn't help but sigh: "The power of our Han soldiers is truly unrivaled among all nations..."

At this time, Cai Ting led everyone to come forward to pay homage.

Princess Jieyou also returned the favor one by one.

Then, surrounded by everyone, Princess Jieyou took Liu Wannian into the city and stayed in a specially designed post house.

"Master Chu, you are tired from the journey, please rest early..."

After Zhang Yue sent Princess Jieyou to the post house, he said goodbye to Princess Jieyou and informed him that a banquet would be held for Princess Jieyou and her entourage at the Yunyang Marquis Mansion tomorrow.

"Thank you General!"

Princess Jieyou returned the gift, and then led Liu Wannian into the courtyard under the guidance of the servant boy.

Zhang Yue returned to the Hou Mansion after explaining his duties to his servants.

After everyone left, Liu Wannian whispered to Princess Jieyou: "Mother and son are afraid!"

Princess Jieyou couldn't help but sigh with a wry smile after hearing this.
