The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

Chapter 286 has long known
Yitu was not convinced, and said that Zhao Yao's archery competition was not worth it, so he asked Zhao Yao to compete with him in an upright manner, and no more tricks were allowed.

When Zhao Yao heard that Yitu said that he wanted to compete in an upright manner, he thought it was very funny and couldn't help laughing.

Hearing Zhao Yao's laughter, the ministers also laughed.

Yitu didn't know what Zhao Yao and the others were laughing at, but he could see that these Da Zhou people were laughing at him.His face was livid with anger, and he yelled at Zhao Yao, asking him if he dared to try again.

Zhao Yao naturally dared to compete with him again, and generously asked Yi Tu to determine the rules of the competition.

The Huns were good at riding and shooting.They often hunt their prey on horseback.He proposed that riding a horse is better than archery.After hearing this, Zhao Yao readily agreed.

Hu Yanping told Zhao Yao not to rush to agree for the time being, because Yitu's riding and shooting skills are very good.If Yitu really beat Zhao Yao in riding and archery, it would not be a glorious thing.

Hearing what Hu Yanping said, Uwe rolled his eyes in disdain.However, as Hu Yanping's colleague, he had to cooperate with him, and hypocritically persuaded Zhao Yao not to ride and shoot with Yitu.

After Yitu heard what Hu Yanping and Uwe said, a smug expression appeared on his face full of flesh.He "kindly" persuaded Zhao Yao that if it was too late for Zhao Yao to admit defeat, otherwise he would cry later if he lost.

Zhao Yao scoffed at Yitu's kind advice.He raised his chin, looked at Yitu with his hands on his hips, and said that the people of Dazhou would never admit defeat to foreigners.

As soon as he finished his sentence, Shen Hu immediately agreed loudly.

Shen Hu and his four generals echoed Zhao Yao's words, saying that they Dazhou people will never admit defeat!
Although Zhao Yao was short and thin in front of Yitu, the aura exuded from him was not low at all.

He finally said timidly that he would not lose, and it was Yitu who lost.He also taunted Yitu, don't throw bows and arrows again when he loses later, not to mention that he used tricks to win.

If he can't afford to lose, don't compete with him now.

Yitu's face turned blue, white, and red after being told by Zhao Yao, and his hands were clenched into fists, making creaking sounds.

Zhao Yao also specifically asked Hu Yanping if their Hun warriors were all so narrow-minded and couldn't afford to lose.

Hu Yanping quickly said no.He also said that Yitu was just joking, not really angry.

Zhao Yao said that since Yitu won't throw bows and arrows again after losing, he is willing to compete with him again.

Yitu suppressed his anger, and said to Zhao Yao with a sullen face that he would not lose!

The racecourse is next to the martial arts field.Soon, someone set up a target in the racecourse.

When Yitu and his group of Huns entered the palace today, they deliberately brought their horses in.Because they wanted to have a friendly exchange with Da Zhou, they couldn't do without their war horses.

The emperor graciously allowed them to bring their horses into the palace.

The horses of the Huns and the horses of the Great Zhou are naturally different.The horses of the Huns were very tall and strong.And the horses of Da Zhou are more "refined" than the horses of the Huns.

Zhao Yao and Yitu each had five arrows.There are five targets on the racecourse, and the distance between each target is different.Five arrows must hit the bull's-eye of each target, and if one arrow misses the bull's-eye, it means losing.Zhao Yao asked Yitu to shoot first, and Yitu was not polite, he got on the horse first and started the competition.

Of the five arrows, Yitu hit four, and the last arrow missed the bull's-eye.

When it was Zhao Yao's turn, the five arrows in his hand hit the bull's-eye of each target.

Seeing this scene, the ministers of the Great Zhou cheered for Zhao Yao.

Zhao Yao mocked Yitu unceremoniously, saying that the riding and archery level of the Hun warriors was not as good as that of an 11-year-old boy.

Yi Tuqi's face was distorted, and Hu Yanping was worried that he would lose his mind and do impulsive things like before, so he hurriedly asked him to back down.

Hu Yanping first praised Zhao Yao, and then sought compensation for Yitu, which probably meant that Zhao Yao was a prince and a child, and Yitu hadn't displayed his true strength just now.

For Hu Yanping's words, the ministers of Da Zhou were very disdainful.

Song Dekang directly said that the Huns should not compete if they can't afford to lose.If in the next competition, the Huns still "reserve" their strength and dare not really compete with Da Zhou, then don't compete, pack up and go back to the grassland.

Hu Yanping didn't expect the people of Dazhou to be so straightforward, which is different from the people from the Central Plains he had learned.

The emperor also spoke, saying that since you Huns proposed to discuss, then show your real skills and don't hide them.If you don't dare to show your real ability to discuss, then don't discuss.

Hu Yanping hurriedly said that in the next competition, they will show their real skills and will never show mercy.

The next competition was the most elite cavalry of the Xiongnu Royal Court brought by Hu Yanping.

The Huns sent a man who was not very strong.Young looks in his 20s.

Da Zhou sent Shen Hu's lieutenant.

The two sat on horseback.The Huns held a scimitar unique to the Huns, and Shen Hu's lieutenant held a sword in his hand.

Neither of them rushed towards each other in a hurry, but looked at each other with cold and sharp eyes.

Zhao Yao seemed to see the thunder and lightning between the two of them.

The Huns moved first, with a knife in their hand, and rushed towards Shen Hu's lieutenant general.

Shen Hu's lieutenant greeted him unhurriedly.

The swords collided together, making a sharp metallic sound.

The Huns were very vicious and their moves were deadly.

Shen Hu's lieutenant general did not panic, and easily resolved the Huns' offensive.

The two fought back and forth less than ten times, and the scimitar in the hand of the Huns fell to the ground, and then he fell off the horse.

Hu Yanping and the others couldn't believe they lost.

Cheers and applause continued from Da Zhou's side.

Next, it's three people fighting three people.

The Huns came aggressively, but in the end they were beaten to the ground by the three soldiers of Dazhou.

Then, it was five people fighting five people.In the battle, formations are used.

The Huns thought they would win this time, but unfortunately they still lost in the end.

In the end, ten people fought against ten people.

The Huns still lost to the Zhou people.

Hu Yanping and the others couldn't believe that they lost every game, and the loss was very ugly.

The emperor looked at Hu Yanping and said very tolerantly that if they wanted to compete again, Da Zhou would continue to accompany them.

Chu Ying sarcastically said to Hu Yanping, did they fail to show their true abilities just now, that's why they lost so badly.

Song Dekang said that if the Huns are not convinced, they can continue to compete.

Hu Yanping naturally couldn't accept this result, he hoped to continue to compete with Da Zhou.

The emperor readily agreed to him.

So, the two sides fought again, seven people against seven people.

In this competition, the Huns were not knocked off their horses as quickly as before, but in the end all the Huns were knocked off their horses, and there were two people in Da Zhou who were not knocked off their horses.

The emperor asked Hu Yanping intimately if he wanted to compete again.

Hu Yanping's face was very ugly for a moment, but it disappeared soon.He smiled embarrassingly and said that they were convinced of the defeat.

After the sparring was over, Hu Yanping and the others didn't stay in the palace for long, and returned to the post soon.

As soon as he got back to the posthouse, Hu Yanping angrily scolded Yitu and the others for being useless, they were completely defeated.

Uwe sat aside, gloating.

Yitu and the others were ashamed by Hu Yanping's scolding.In fact, they were as shocked as Hu Yanping.They never expected that the people of Dazhou would be so powerful.They never thought that they would lose to the Central Plains people.

They didn't retain their strength before, and they used all their strength, but they still lost to the people of Dazhou.

Hu Yanping has lived half his life, and has never been as shameful as today.

Uwe interrupted Hu Yanping's scolding: "The Zuo Da is in charge, it's useless if you continue to scold."

Hu Yanping saw that Uwe's expression was calm, and his eyes became very sharp in an instant.

"Uwe, what do you mean?"

"The Zuo Dahu, I have been reminding you not to underestimate the people of Dazhou, but unfortunately none of you listen to me." Uwe looked directly into Hu Yanping's eyes without fear, "Now that you have lost to the people of Dazhou, how can you do it?" Wake up?"

Hu Yanping choked on Uwe's question.He had a gloomy face and said nothing.

"Today's competition is just the tip of the iceberg of Dazhou, and the real power of Dazhou may be far more than that." Uwe is not as angry as Hu Yanping and the others, he is very calm. "This is the reason why King Zuo Xian opposed attacking Da Zhou."

He also said: "Shan Yu and King You Xian thought that Da Zhou was the same as the previous Da Xia, and if they frightened Da Zhou a little, Da Zhou was scared to death, and then obediently sent us money and food. Now, you Seeing it, do you still think Da Zhou looks like Da Xia?"

With a dark face, Hu Yanping said reluctantly: "We underestimated Da Zhou." At this moment, Hu Yanping did not dare to underestimate Da Zhou. "Da Zhou is stronger than we imagined."

"Leader Zuo, what are you going to do next? Are you still staying in Dazhou to inquire about the situation?"

Hu Yanping was in a panic at this moment, and didn't know what to do for a while.

"What do you think?"

"I don't think we need to stay in Dazhou to inquire about the situation." Ubi said, "Even if we stay, we probably won't be able to find out any news."

Hu Yanping frowned, he hesitated for a while and said, "You mean we'll go back to the grassland right away?"

"The sooner the better." Uwe said seriously, "If we stay in Dazhou, we will only be in danger. Maybe we really won't be able to go back to the grassland by then."

After hearing this, Hu Yanping's face changed drastically.

"You mean that if we continue to stay in Da Zhou, the people of Da Zhou will treat us badly?"

"Zuo Dahu, didn't you see that the people of Dazhou are full of hostility towards us, and they are eager to start a war with us." Ubi guessed, "If we die, Shanyu will be very angry, and he will definitely wave his troops Going south, this is just as Da Zhou wished."

"You mean Da Zhou wants to attack us?"

Uwe nodded and said, "That's right."

Hu Yanping was shocked: "How dare they..."

"The left is in charge, the Emperor of the Great Zhou is a capable and ambitious emperor, it is impossible for him to be indifferent to us." Uwe said, "The Emperor of the Great Zhou knew in his heart that it was not some bandits who harassed the northern border of the Great Zhou, but Wang Ting, do you think the Emperor of Great Zhou will act as if nothing happened?"

He asked, "If it were Shan Yu, what do you think Shan Yu would do?"

Hu Yanping said without any hesitation: "Shan Yu will take revenge on Da Zhou." After speaking, he sighed softly, "Da Zhou will also take revenge on us."

"So, we have to leave Da Zhou quickly."

Hu Yanping felt that what Uwe said was right, nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, we'll go back in two days." After speaking, he waved to Yitu and the others, signaling them to retreat.

Yitu and the others returned to their room dejectedly like a defeated rooster.

Seeing that Hu Yanping sent Yitu and the others away, Ubi knew that Hu Yanping had something important to say to him.

"Uwe, I have to meet someone tonight, you can help me cover at the posthouse." Hu Yanping said with a serious face, "This person is a member of Youxian King, it is very important, I have to meet he."

When Uwe heard this, although he was surprised in his heart, he didn't show anything on his face.He also pretended to be indifferent and said, "Don't worry about Zuo Da, I will help you cover it."

"Thank you." Seeing that Uwe didn't ask who this person was, Hu Yanping breathed a sigh of relief.

At night, Hu Yanping sneaked out of the post house under the cover of Uwe.

Jingyang Hou was not surprised to see Hu Yanping at all.The two exchanged polite greetings first, and then came to the main point.

Hu Yanping asked Jingyang Hou very directly, if the Xiongnu sent troops south to attack Dazhou, what chance would they have of winning.

Jingyang Hou told Hu Yanping without any hesitation that there were at most three floors.

"With your Yuan family's secret help, what are the chances of winning?"

Jingyang Hou said: "The three levels I mentioned just now include the Yuan family helping you secretly."

"There are only three floors..." Hu Yanping couldn't believe that their chances of winning were so low.

"King You Xian wrote to me and asked me, and I told him that Da Zhou is not Da Xia, so it is not so easy to deal with." Jingyang Hou was very disapproving of the Huns coming to Da Zhou, and was also very dissatisfied with Hu Yanping coming to him , but he can not see. "The current emperor of Great Zhou is very powerful, and his methods are also very good. It is not something your Shanyu can deal with."

Hu Yanping was not displeased when he heard Jingyanghou belittle Shanyu so much.When he first met the Great Zhou Emperor, he felt that the Great Zhou Emperor was stronger than Shan Yu.

"Did Zhou want to attack the Huns?"

"It's fine if you don't provoke Da Zhou, but you did, and you came to Da Zhou provocatively." Jingyang Hou said mockingly, "Before you came, I warned you not to come, but you came here Yes, offending people who shouldn't be offended."

Hu Yanping's expression froze for a while, and then a wry smile appeared on his face: "We didn't expect Da Zhou..."

"After you go back, I advise you to persuade Shan Yu not to treat Da Zhou as Da Xia any more." Jingyang Hou said in a cold tone, "If you don't want to fight Da Zhou, then apologize and give gifts obediently, or wait until you really fight. Get up, your fate..." Jingyanghou didn't say anything more, but the sarcasm in his tone already explained everything.

"Oh, I didn't expect it to be like this..."

"Also, don't contact me easily in the future if you have nothing to do." Jingyanghou frowned and said, "The current emperor is too smart to hide any trouble from him. If he finds out that I have contacts with you, my Yuan family will be arrested." Slash all over the house."

"I took a risk to see you tonight, and I don't want to see you again in the future."

Hu Yanping smiled and said: "Jingyanghou, you won't be able to see me even if you want to, I probably won't come to Dazhou again."

Jingyang Hou snorted coldly: "It's best to be like this."

"I will pass on your words to Shan Yu."

"Is there anything else? It's okay. I'll go back."

"It's okay, I won't disturb Marquis Jingyang tonight."

Jingyanghou stood up and reminded Hu Yanping again: "If the Shanyu still wants to continue to be a Shanyu, then listen to my advice and don't attack Da Zhou, otherwise he will be the leader of the Shanyu." After finishing speaking, he Just turned around and left.

Although Hu Yanping is a member of New Morton Chanyu, he does not blindly trust New Morton Chanyu.Now that he saw the Emperor of Great Zhou, and also saw the strength of Great Zhou, he believed that the words of Marquis Jingyang were not intended to intimidate him.

After Jingyanghou left for a while, Hu Yanping left.

At this time, the news of the meeting between Hu Yanping and Jingyanghou had already reached the Imperial Study Room.

The emperor had known for a long time that the Yuan family had colluded with the Xiongnu.The reason why he didn't touch the Yuan family for a long time was because there was no evidence, and the second was because he was fishing for big fish with a long line.

　Emperor: Everything is under my control, are you surprised or not?
　　Jingyang Hou: Horror JPG!

　　Emperor: How many times have I told you not to make small moves under my nose, why didn't you listen?

　　Finally, ask for a monthly ticket!Ask for a reward!Please leave a message!
