The Bank of China said he was a weirdo, and since he saw Su Ren that day, he has never been seen again.
For three days in a row, Su Ren had nothing to do. He either left the tent for a walk or drank and slept in his tent. Since BOC came, the supervision of Su Ren in the camp has become much weaker. The two people at the door
The Hun guards were all gone. As long as Su Ren did not leave the royal court, no one would pay attention to him no matter what he wanted to do.
Zhang Qian and his companion Tang Yifu became the only outsiders that Su Ren could come into contact with. Su Ren did not expect that Tang Yifu was actually a Huns. According to him, he was forgotten when the Huns were plowing grass ten years ago.
On the land of the Han Dynasty, he was rescued and surrendered to the Han Dynasty. This time Zhang Qian went on a mission to the Western Regions, and Tang Yifu volunteered to be his guide.
Speaking of which, it was all thanks to his Tang Yifu, otherwise Zhang Qian would have had only one outcome if someone caught him using his poor Xiongnu dialect, and that was death. Zhang Qian had no doubts about Tang Yifu's loyalty, and they worked hard together.
After so many years, even if Tang Yi's father had any ideas, they would have been exposed long ago. Since he can accompany Zhang Qian as a slave, it naturally shows that Tang Yi's father is loyal to the Han Dynasty, at least to Zhang Qian.
The sun outside was very good, but it had rained a few days ago. Once the wet cowhide tent was exposed to the sun, the stench could kill people, so Su Ren would not go in if he could. He just looked for it.
On a slope, Su Ren was lying on the soft grass with his hands behind his head. In the distance were the herds of cattle and sheep that could not be seen at a glance. Compared with the Xiongnu nobles, the life of ordinary herdsmen was still poor. A dozen children carried
Niuhide Douzi is walking among a sea of flowers, digging for wild vegetables.
"Sir, are you going to the court of Shan Yu Wang?" Zhang Qian knelt down next to Su Ren, holding an ox tail in his hand to drive away the flies that were surrounding Su Ren. In front of outsiders, he had to maintain this humility to avoid being criticized.
People see through the relationship between two people.
Su Ren didn't move, not even his head: "Yes! Ambassador, is he willing to go with us?"
"It's impossible not to go. Yesterday, Liu Qianhu came to see me and asked me to take a few people to serve you along the way. This Liu Qianhu is really strange. He knew that I was Han, so he asked me to accompany you."
"Liu Qianhu? Liu Hong?" Su Ren turned to look at Zhang Qian.
Zhang Qian nodded: "I have selected a few people, and they are all still alive today after they came back with me."
"Liu Hong knows your true identity?"
Zhang Qian thought for a while: "You probably don't know. When I was arrested, Liu Qianhu hadn't come yet, and I don't know when he was arrested. Being a Qianhu should be an official in the Han Dynasty. He has no integrity.
He is not worthy of being a Han man."
"Hahaha! Does the Ambassador know the origin of Liu Qianhu?"
Zhang Qian shook his head: "Sir, do you know?"
Su Ren lay down again: "Liu Qianhu is not an ordinary person. His father is Liu An, the king of Huainan. Last year, Liu An's grandson Liu Jian and his guest Lei were accused of treason. Before His Majesty's people could rush there, Liu An died mysteriously. His Majesty sent
They went to Huainan to capture Liu An's family, but Liu Hong was taken away alone. Later, a nationwide arrest list was made, but he did not expect to defect to the Huns."
"You mean Liu Qianhu is the son of Huainan King Liu An?"
Su Ren smiled and nodded: "The fifth son of King Huainan."
Zhang Qian didn't speak for a long time, and the movements of his hands stopped. This news surprised him so much that he couldn't accept it for a while. A Han royal family actually surrendered to the Huns. How much face did this lose to the Han Dynasty? The bull in Zhang Qian's hand
The tail drooped on Su Ren's face, and Su Ren shouted a few times before Zhang Qian came to his senses.
"How did you know, sir?"
"Fortunately, I was in Chang'an last year. At that time, Liu An came to Chang'an for an audience and died suddenly. This matter was widely circulated in Chang'an, even if I didn't want to know." Su Ren coughed: "But I remind the ambassador, for that
Liu Qianhu must be absolutely careful and never let him know your true identity, otherwise you may not be able to return to the Han Dynasty in this life."
Zhang Qian nodded: "I understand!"
Leaving the barbarian bull beside Su Ren to protect Su Ren, Huang Shisan and Tang Yifu followed the example of the Huns children and dug up wild vegetables all over the mountains and fields. They didn't have other people's cowhide bags, so Huang Shisan simply took off his outer robes.
, rolled up all the so-called wild vegetables they got. The two of them were quick with their hands and feet, and they dug up a big pile in a short time.
Huang Shisan held the clothes in his arms and threw his robe on the ground like a treasure: "Don't you like wild vegetables, sir? I dug a big pile and let him eat enough at night."
Su Ren stood up with a smile and looked at the pile of things that Huang Shisan brought over. Spring is the season when all things revive, and all kinds of plants begin to grow crazily. Whether they are poisonous or not, they all take advantage of this good time to grow as much as possible.
Draw more nutrients from the ground and make yourself taller so you can receive more sunlight.
Among the piles of wild vegetables Huang Shisan brought, except for wild leeks, which could barely be called vegetables, the other things were all weeds or poisonous plants. Especially the big bundle at the top, even the petals were
There was no damage. Each one was bright and beautiful. The red ones were as red as fire, and the yellow ones were golden. Su Ren picked up one, put it under his nose and smelled it. It was sweet and fragrant.
Zhang Qian and Tang Yi's father were standing next to Su Ren. They knew what it was with their eyes, but they didn't say anything because they wanted to see what would happen to Su Ren.
After smelling it for a while, Su Ren suddenly smiled, raised his head and asked Huang Shisan: "Who asked you to pick this?"
Huang Shisan chuckled: "I thought it was worth it. I thought it would be delicious, so I got them all. It's such a big piece, but no one wants it. What wonderful flowers, and the leaves are so big and thick,
Those Huns are so ignorant."
Su Ren finally felt relieved. It seemed that no one was trying to harm him. He patted Huang Shisan on the shoulder: "It's natural for others not to pick it. Haven't you ever thought about why no one wants such a large piece of such good wild vegetables?
?Are all the Huns fools?"
Huang Shisan scratched his head: "Sir, do you mean you can't eat this food?"
"Not only is it impossible to eat, but eating it will kill people. Such a big bundle is enough to poison a hundred people. Do you think our death is not thorough enough?" Huang Shisan turned around and ran away, but was hugged by the bull.
Su Ren stood up slowly and looked at him with a smile: "Let me tell you, this is called wolfsbane flower, also known as heartbroken grass. I don't know what it is called here. It is very poisonous. If you eat it, your limbs will twitch and you will have difficulty breathing.
I just choked myself to death! You said you have caused such a big trouble, how should you be punished?"
"Fortunately, I know it. If you don't know how to eat it in your stomach, you don't know how you will die! Old Huang, if you don't understand, don't do anything wrong. Not everything can be eaten in this world. Some things look ugly but taste good. Some things taste good.
Look at beauty but see blood sealing your throat, please remember!" Turning around, ignoring Huang Shisan's plea for mercy, he said to Man Niu: "I'll hand it over to you, I'll do whatever you want with me!"
Man Niu laughed twice and turned over, pressing Huang Shisan under him.
Zhang Qian and Tang Yifu didn't say a word to this, until Su Ren sat down again and said: "The Huns call this grass a headache grass. Even livestock will not eat it, let alone humans. I admire you for your erudition, sir!"
Su Ren glanced at Tang Yi's father and smiled: "It's not that he is knowledgeable, it's just that he has traveled a lot. When he was young, he traveled around the world with his master. The more he saw, the more he knew."
Zhang Qian nodded, turned his face and said to Tang Yi's father: "Thank you sir for not killing me! How can you deceive sir with this little trick?"
Tang Yi's father kowtowed quickly. Su Ren smiled and said: "I promised the ambassador to send you back to the Han Dynasty. Only the ambassador knew about this before. Now I tell you, so please don't use this little trick again, in case anything happens."
I didn't realize it that time. It would be a small matter if I died, and the ambassador and you would lose an opportunity. I hope you will consider it carefully!"
Huang Shisan and Man Niu were fighting nearby and could clearly hear what was said. They also understood the meaning of Su Ren's words. Huang Shisan was even more angry. He knocked Man Niu to the ground and threw himself at Tangyi.
My father came over and said, "Grandma, you really want to harm my husband and you are using me. I have to kill you today!"
Su Ren stopped Huang Shisan and said to Zhang Qian with a smile: "I have made my words clear. You can think about it. It is estimated that they will set off to Shanyu Wangting tomorrow. If you believe me, I will bring your people. If
If you don’t believe me, just pretend that I didn’t say anything and say goodbye!”
Without waiting for Zhang Qian and Tang Yi's father to reply, Su Ren turned around and walked down the hillside. Huang Shisan and Man Niu looked at Zhang Qian and Tang Yi's father fiercely, and spit on the ground in unison before chasing Su Ren.
In fact, Su Ren didn't know any wild vegetables. He had seen shepherd's purse in the wheat field, but he didn't know what was edible on the grassland. After the scene just now, he didn't even dare to eat the wild vegetables he picked by himself, let alone
Huang Shisan and Man Niu made it. They randomly found a family of herdsmen, exchanged a piece of jade pendant for a bag of wild vegetables that the family's children had just dug, and happily returned to their tent.
Liu Hong waited in the tent for a long time. When he saw Su Ren coming back, he saw the wild vegetables in Huang Shisan's hand and laughed twice: "Do you really want to eat wild vegetables?"
Su Ren nodded: "A combination of meat and vegetables gives the flavor. Those who only eat vegetarian food have no strength. Eating only meat is not good for the stomach. Look at the Huns. They all look fat and fat. In fact, most of them have high blood pressure.
People with high blood lipids and high blood sugar, especially nobles, so eating some vegetarian food is a good choice."
Liu Hong was noncommittal. The key was that he didn't understand what three highs were. He waved his hand to stop Su Ren from continuing to talk nonsense: "Let's get down to business. I'm here to inform you that the military advisor will set off tomorrow. You will also follow. Can you reach Shanyu alive?
The royal court depends on your fortune!"
"It's so urgent, why can't we just wait?"
Liu Hong shook his head: "It's better to take care of yourself, hahaha. In fact, I hope you die early. For the sake of being Han people, I remind you to say goodbye!"
Liu Hong went out, and Su Ren chased him out and stood at the door, shouting: "Liu Qianhu, can you stay for a meal? Try my craft, stewed lamb with wild vegetables. I'm sure you won't forget it after eating it!" (To be continued!
