Chapter 32 The Huns are here

Yunjiazhuangzi.

Compared with the tedious preparations for welcome, the Empress Dowager's lunch meal was the easiest.

The Queen Mother's diet has always been simple and does not like luxury, and the elderly prefer to write light tastes.

The chef of the Yun family was extremely dissatisfied with the four dishes and one soup set by the Marquis, thinking that only four dishes were unable to use their skills. So he creatively tinted out the things like sieve dishes, and the queen mother smiled when she heard the wind in the front yard. The queen mother's praise was of milestone, and her career reached a new height.

Yun Xiao was far from the chef's consciousness, and there were so many evil guests. The Gillian rushed into the greenhouse like a wild boar, rushing around, stuffing whatever he caught into his mouth, and the cucumber was full of delicious food, so he couldn't wait until he grew up before eating. Just as he was about to pick it up next to the pepper, the Liu Xiaozhu, who was eating inside and outside, got out.

"Sister Gillian, that's poison that cannot be taken."

With one sentence, Yun Xiao's wishful thinking was wiped out. It was difficult to guard against thieves from home day and night. Yun Xiao decided to prohibit Liu Xiaozhu from entering the greenhouse in the future.

Now it is even worse. People have to stand by their side to watch while eating, and their two wives have to serve the old empress dowager, constantly serving the soup and vegetables. They have to laugh with their faces, and their faces are stiff. Yun Xiao thinks that he should learn from the etiquette lady in the future, and hold a chopstick when he has nothing to do. When he smiles, he reveals eight teeth.

"Grandma, this meatball soup is the best. Lintong Hou said that only this can grow up. Grandma can eat more to grow taller."

Liu Xiaozhu was whispering to introduce him next to him.

"Hahaha. Grandma doesn't dare to grow any longer. Grandma will become an old fairy again. It's better for our little pigs not to eat some strong ones."

The empress dowager was very relieved and kept praising her grandson while eating meatballs.

Liu Duan and Liu Sheng could only pretend to be quails on the side, one was thirteen and one was thirteen. If they were to follow the previous standards, they would have been to the vassal states long ago. But now Liu Qi is seriously ill and no one is taking care of this matter, so he delayed it.

Now the two boys are studying harder and they like the environment of Tsinghua University. They also like the coursework at Tsinghua University. At Tsinghua University, they can learn knowledge that they have never heard of before. This aroused their strong curiosity, and they have a smart and perverted younger brother who always wins first place in the school exam.

This puts a lot of pressure on the two princes. No brother wants to go to the fiefdom with a title that is worse than his younger brother. Of course, if Wei Ya from the Yun family can follow her to the fiefdom, she will go to the fiefdom. The two brothers are willing to give up their studies immediately and go to the fiefdom far away.

Now the two brothers watched Liu Xiaozhu acting cute in front of her grandmother, so they had to watch. There was no way that they had an age advantage. This is a hard indicator. If you two and a half-year-old boys act cute like this, you will be spanked by the queen mother.

"Grandma, you eat this pig's ears and chew it in your mouth, it's so delicious."

Gillian pouted her oily mouth while recommending the pig ears as if she offered treasure to the Queen Mother.

"Look at how many teeth your grandmother still has. Can she eat that? Silly kid, you can eat it yourself."

Princess Guantao was doting and wiped Ajiao's mouth with a cloth towel.

"From the Yun family, these side dishes are very suitable for your appetite. In a while, bring some for Your Majesty. You can prepare them. The pig's ears are crispy and raw, so bring more. Your Yun family is really capable, and you can make flowers if you don't eat anything."

"Mom, I want the eggs in the black water."

Ajiao jumped around and started ordering dishes. This little guy has a special liking for tea eggs. He has eaten three of them and is not afraid of being overwhelmed.

"It's good if the Queen Mother and the Princess like it."

Yan Xian, the housewife, laughed with her.

It's too much, not only to eat but also to take it. Alas, there is no way to just think that the Japanese are entering the village.

The Empress Dowager and Princess Guantao were satisfied with this meal, and robbed many vegetables from the Yun family, so she let the Yun family go. With a large number of minions, smoke and dust rolled towards Mount Li.

Wei Wan sent the Empress Dowager to Mount Li in fear before returning. When she returned to the Yun family's lantern, she shouted loudly as soon as she entered the door.

"Brother, the Huns are here."

"I'll come back when I'm back. The empress dowager has left and will not let the family come back. You are planning to let the family spend the night in the mountains. Although it's spring, the nights in the mountains are also cold. You don't have to be so cruel, you're all your own family."

Yun Xiao was lying on the rattan lounge chair and was exhausted. This day, he was exhausted. The muscles on his face were all smiling and stiff. He applied a lot of hot towels before he could recover.

"Oh, it's not the Huns on your farm. It's the Huns on the grassland."

Wei Wan pulled up the hot towel covered with Yun Xiao's face and said nervously.

"The Huns on the grassland? The Huns are fighting? It's impossible. They are usually busy grazing this season. How could they attack the big man? What do you say?"

Yun Xiao sat up immediately. If the Huns attacked, it would not be good news. If the Yun family village was not properly affected, they would be affected.

"It was not the Huns who fought, but the Huns sent envoys to our Han Dynasty. They had arrived in Mayi and the court sent people to pick them up. They would arrive in Chang'an in a few days."

Seeing that Wei Wan successfully summoned Yun Xiao, he was not in a hurry and took a sip of the tea brought by the maid and said slowly.

"Zuo Xianwang had just raided Yunzhong and Dai County. What did the envoys of the Huns do at this time? Could it be that those who were not caught on the battlefield should be caught in negotiations?"

Yun Xiao was a little suspicious. He knew too much about what negotiation was. The so-called negotiation was that both parties had a meal together, bragging, and fooling each other. There were really not many things.

The factors that ultimately determine political trends are interests and balances of interests! These will never change because of the deception of several envoys. Generally speaking, there are only two forms of war. Offense and defense. If both sides attack, they will form a war. If both sides defend, it is called confrontation.

It should be said that the confrontation between the Han and the Huns should be considered a confrontation. One side is anxious to go home to farm, while the other side is anxious to go home to herd sheep. Both sides are very busy, and they have wives and children at home. It is important to fight a war, but if farming and herding sheep is delayed, what will your wife and children eat in a year?

The peace on the border was born under this situation. The soldiers on both sides said to each other and took care of each other. After harvesting the wheat and fattening the sheep, they came to fight. This is the enemy-to-me conflict between the Huns robbers and the Han security guards.

In fact, the Huns were not born to love robbery, but their productivity level was too inferior. In many places, they could not even make pots. The man dared not do business with you from time to time. That was only robbery, but robbery also had costs. Although the Huns were good at fighting, they were not unable to fight to death. It was really unpaid to sacrifice their lives for a pot.

Moreover, there is a problem of robbery. Generally speaking, what you catch during robbery is from grain cloth to iron pots and linens. On the issue of variety, the Huns have never been picky. But the problem is that your family needs a few pieces of linens. But they just robbed two bags of wheat. Your family needs a bite of iron pot, but they just robbed a piece of silk.

Yun Xiao believed that only border trade could solve this problem, and this border trade could not be opened. The reason is very simple. If border trade is opened, the Huns will become stronger and stronger. A powerful Huns is not in the interests of the Han Dynasty.

The best way is to form a cavalry unit that can fight wars, so that they can go deep into the desert and gobi to fight the attrition war with the Huns. After three or five years of fighting, the millions of Huns were almost exhausted.

Seeing Yun Xiao wandering around in the sky again, Wei Wan didn't speak. She just drank tea and looked at the dark night outside the window. He knew that as long as Yun Xiao figured it out, there would definitely be an amazing argument.

"Does the Huns come to discuss the issue of mutual market?"

Yun Xiao said after thinking for a long time.

"Trade? It's a mess, how about the law of trading? As soon as you got the things to the border, the Huns came over. They rode their horses and ran quickly, and they could only stare at them if they grabbed one."

Wei Wan was very disdainful of Yun Xiao’s statement. Who is crazy nowadays going to trade with the Huns?

"That's not the case. Trading is good for both parties. If I'm not wrong, the Hun envoys came this time, it must be for the trading of each other."
