Liu Yi pursed his lips and said, "Has my brother, the crown prince, ascended the throne?"
Zhao Hanzhang did not lie, he nodded and said: "The latest news is that the crown prince of Han Dynasty ascended the throne as emperor in Zhongyang County of Xihe Kingdom, and Liu Congzhong is now in Boping County of Anping Kingdom. The two places are not far apart, but they are not close either.
"
Liu Yi raised his neck slightly and said: "Just wait, there will be twists and turns in the middle, and my fourth brother will definitely be able to welcome the new emperor. Then they will join forces and go south to take back Pingyang City."
Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said, "Then I'll make a bet with you. I bet they will kill each other before going south. Either your Han Kingdom will have a new emperor, or Liu Cong will die an unexpected death."
Liu Yi was startled and his heart froze. He trembled his lips and retorted to Zhao Hanzhang, "You are talking nonsense!"
But I am not very confident.
The fourth brother is a man of great talent and strategy. Now the foundation of the Xiongnu lies in his hands. If the prince brother is tolerant, peace may be temporarily achieved, but Liu He's temper...
Liu Yi had always been aloof from the world, he was young and had almost no military power, but because his mother was the empress and was favored by the emperor, Liu He regarded him as his enemy everywhere.
Liu Yi swallowed his saliva and didn't want to talk to Zhao Hanzhang anymore, so he kept his head and walked forward.
Zhao Hanzhang followed him slowly, unwilling to give up, "Liu Yi, I really want to make friends with you. It has been nearly a hundred years since you Xiongnu moved to Bingzhou. From Wei Chen to Jin Chen, what do you have to do with me, the people of the Central Plains?"
the difference?"
When Liu Yi heard what she said, he was almost moved. His intuition was not good, so he quickened his pace, walked to the grain truck, picked up a bag of grain, and put it on his shoulders.
But he didn't lift it up.
Zhao Hanzhang stretched out his hand to help him lift it and put it on his shoulder. He glanced at the soldiers guarding the grain truck. The soldier met her eyes and immediately ran up to him. After Zhao Hanzhang grabbed a bag of grain, he quickly lifted it up and put it away.
onto her shoulders.
Liu Yi has already carried the bag and left.
Zhao Hanzhang hurriedly took two steps to catch up with him and continued to whisper in his ear, "You and your father both admire Han rule and want to treat all people in the world equally, but your brothers do not, especially the prince. I heard
He listened very much to what his uncle Hu Yanyou said. Hu Yanyou was short-sighted and liked hegemony. When your father was around, he dared to exclude dissidents and fight for power. How much more so now that your father is gone?"
Liu Yi didn't know where she got so much strength. He was breathing heavily while carrying the bag, but she could still chase him and talk non-stop.
"To be honest, we ordinary people don't really care who is sitting on the dragon throne. Although the Xiongnu is a small tribe to us Huaxia people, there are countless ethnic groups in the world, and it is not just the Huaxia people who are ruled by me.
That’s it, among them are the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Jiehu, and Baiyue... Otherwise, why have so many Chinese people been willing to submit to you as ministers since you established the country?"
Liu Yi arrived at the place, put down the grain bag, pressed Nuan's sore shoulder and said: "There are some people who obey us, but most of them are against us, such as you."
Zhao Hanzhang also put down his grain bag and said helplessly: "That's because the Jin Dynasty is still there. How can we, as ministers of the Jin Dynasty, change hands casually? What's more, you Xiongnu have targeted the Chinese people since the founding of the country, and divided the people into three and five.
Ninth class, our Chinese people, no matter how high or low they are, must always be inferior to the Xiongnu people, who can be convinced?"
Liu Yi opened his mouth, held down his shaken heart, shook his head and said: "Just lie to me, I don't believe you are really willing to recognize a foreigner as your king."
Zhao Hanzhang said: "If we Chinese people don't recognize foreigners as kings, what's the point of your father and the Han State deliberately fighting for the world? Is it to kill all the Chinese people so that you, the Xiongnu clan, can monopolize the Central Plains?"
Liu Yi opened his mouth, but was speechless after being retorted.
Zhao Hanzhang said: "You have been at the bottom during this period. I thought you could understand better, but I didn't expect you are still so confused."
Liu Yi lowered his head and remained silent.
Zhao Hanzhang shook his head and turned to leave, "That's all, you can take a closer look. Do your colleagues care whether you are a Huns, Xianbei or Jiehu?"
"But before, you Han people always bullied us Huns." Liu Yi still couldn't help but said, "How can I believe that you can treat everyone equally?"
Zhao Han
Zhang immediately turned around and said, "You are wrong. What you call bullying is the bullying of lower-ranking people by some superiors. It is not only targeted at the Huns, but Han people and slaves were also bullied. China has always focused on appeasing ethnic minorities.
There are very few canonized counties in the world, and only four barbarians can be canonized. Everyone who relies on them can be canonized. Basically, it is ethnic autonomy."
【In view of the general environment,
Zhao Hanzhang said: "I know that the folk customs and habits of various ethnic groups are different, so I have never thought of forcing you to follow the customs of the Han people."
"If you are willing to surrender, I will certainly grant you a piece of land and allow you to govern yourself. At the same time, I will do my best to help you learn farming, breeding and other techniques so that the Xiongnu and Han people can prosper together."
Although he kept reminding himself repeatedly that this might be a fake, maybe just to deceive him into surrendering, Liu Yi still couldn't help but believe in Zhao Hanzhang when he saw the firm and confident look on his face, so his already wavering mind became even more swaying.
.
Zhao Hanzhang raised his hand and patted his shoulder and said, "You can think about it slowly. No matter how long it takes, I will wait for you."
"But," Zhao Hanzhang changed the subject and said, "I can wait, but you Huns are in the wind and rain. Don't keep them waiting."
Liu Yi pursed his lips.
Zhao Hanzhang turned around and left. Tinghe hurriedly trotted to follow her. When he was far away, he couldn't help but care about her, "Girl, when did you become so powerful? You can carry such a big bag of wheat."
Zhao Hanzhang: "My strength and lower body training in the past four years have been in vain? This is all trivial!"
Having said that, she couldn't help but rub her waist when she returned to the main tent. Being able to carry the sack was all due to her waist strength.
In the evening they ate gray multi-grain steamed buns, while the soldiers ate wheat rice.
There is no other way. Grinding wheat requires time and manpower when you are away from home. Since the supply of wheat flour and wheat bran is insufficient, you can only eat wheat rice or wheat porridge directly.
After dinner, Zhao Hanzhang wandered off to find Ji Yuan, and the two hid and whispered.
Ming Yu and Fu Tinghan were sitting in the tent waiting for them to come over to discuss matters. Seeing that the two of them couldn't finish talking, Ming Yu frowned slightly and couldn't help but look at Fu Tinghan, "Did the governor encounter any difficulties?"
Fu Tinghan had been overhauling weapons and equipment and making gunpowder during this period. He didn't pay enough attention to other things, so he just shook his head.
Ming Ming had foreseen that he would be so straightforward, but he suddenly remembered it, leaned towards him and asked in a low voice, "Fu Shangshu, have you made that Lei Zhenzi yet?"
Fu Tinghan said: "The materials are all ready, but they are not done yet."
Ming Yu wanted to ask again, but when he saw Zhao Hanzhang and Ji Yuan approaching, he couldn't help but stop and asked, "Did the governor encounter a problem?"
Zhao Hanzhang nodded immediately: "I want to do something, but I have no one to trust."
