Chapter 328

The first day of October, the first day of the new year.

Yingzheng led his important ministers to sacrifice to the heaven and the earth, and the people began to liven up.

Rich people hired warlocks one after another, and danced the Nuo dance outside their doors to drive away ghosts and evil spirits.

The common people couldn't afford to invite them, but it didn't affect them to watch the excitement.

On the second day of junior high school, Wang Ben came to report, and Mao Dun and others began to kill horses and eat them.

After all, nearly 20 people died, which meant that there were nearly [-] more horses.

Even if they eat it, it will not affect their return to the Huns.

After receiving the news, Liu Bai immediately came to Hu Yankang.

"Did the dumplings last night taste good?"

Although in a sense, Hu Yankang is a prisoner.

But in Liu Bai's view, this person is of great use.

Moreover, he did not have the habit of ill-treating the captives. In the end, since he had leftover dumplings, he gave him a bowl.

Hu Yankang glanced at him, but said nothing.

His mind has been too messed up these past few days, it was not bright at first, but now it is even more messy.

He didn't understand, since his father and prince didn't care about his life or death, why did they come to Daqin again?
Wouldn't it be better to let the Huns send troops directly under the pretext of being arrested?

There is also the Great Qin Consort in front of him, he also can't understand what he has done.

Since he was brought to Xianyang and met the Great Qin Emperor once, he has been kept here.

Originally, he had already thought about it. If the Qin people tortured him severely, he would grit his teeth and say nothing.

Unexpectedly, to this day, apart from the lack of freedom, food and drink are brought to him every day.

Every three days, he will be given water to let him take a bath!
At the beginning, he was not used to it. He always felt that he was not dirty at all, and it was a waste to use so much water to bathe.

But now, the person who delivered the water came late that day, and he felt uncomfortable all over.

I thought it would last forever like this, but after the prince came, the son-in-law also started to pay attention to him.

After thinking about it, he didn't understand what this man was planning.

If you can't figure it out, just ask!

"What are you doing here again?"

Pulling up a chair and sitting down, Liu Bai straightened his clothes before looking up at him.

"Didn't you see with your own eyes last time that your father and the Hun prince were in that valley? I'm afraid you will miss them, so I'll come and tell you some latest news!"

Although Liu Bai's purpose was not guessed, Hu Yankang knew that even if he had ulterior motives, he still wanted to hear the news.

Looking at him coldly, quietly waiting for the news he will say next.

Liu Bai didn't care about his reaction, just talking to himself.

"I don't know why, but there seems to be an infighting among the prince's subordinates. Nearly 20 people were killed, and the rest have already started killing their horses and eating them..."

"Last time I made a bet with the eldest son, I just wanted to ask you, can you feed the rest of the nearly twenty horses for about forty days?"

Hu Yankang still ignored him, but he was terrified in his heart.

Why do they have civil unrest?

According to what we saw that day, there were less than 40 people in total.

Now half of them are dead, and it is even more impossible for the remaining people to rescue him.

It seems that he was really abandoned...

Liu Bai didn't care what he thought, seeing that he kept silent, he was a little anxious.

"You see, I haven't treated you badly since you were imprisoned here. Can't you tell me even if I ask you such a trivial matter?"

"Hey, if I lose this bet, where will I put my son-in-law's face..."

Hu Yankang, whose thoughts were interrupted, said angrily.

"Don't worry, you can't lose..."

The anxious look on Liu Bai's face stopped, and he looked at him in surprise.

"Is this true? Haha, if I really win, I will give you more meat!"

After speaking, he got up and was ready to walk out the door.

Seeing this, Hu Yankang quickly called him to stop.

"My son-in-law, since I answered your question, can you also answer my question?"

"That depends on what you are asking, after all, I don't know many things..."

"I want to ask, what are the names of those who died?"

Turning around and sitting back on the stool, Liu Bai frowned, as if trying to remember the names of those people.

After a while, I was not sure about the authenticity.

"Your question is a bit difficult! General Wang reported it directly to His Majesty, and I don't know very well..."

Hu Yankang was a little depressed when he heard the words. He wanted to see who died, but in the end...

Seeing him like this, Liu Bai continued.

"But I heard that there is a mole at the corner of one's mouth, I don't know if you recognize it..."

"That man led people to confront General Wang before, and he was on the verge of a fight. Fortunately, he was persuaded by your father and the prince, but he died that night, and all the people who followed him to find trouble were also dead... "

Hu Yankang's mind turned rapidly.

The one with a mole at the corner of the mouth, isn't that the head of Touman Shanyu's personal guard?
When I went to the valley that day, I knew who the prince brought with me at a glance.

If all the people who followed him died, it meant that all the people sent by Shan Yu were dead.

Thinking of this, Hu Yankang seemed to understand something.

If those who died were all Shan Yu's people, then the rest would naturally be those brought by the prince and father.

But according to their current situation, they are all trapped in Daqin.

What kind of deep hatred, can't we wait until we get out of the valley?

His not-so-intelligent head was even more of a mess at the moment.

Liu Bai knew that this person was a bit stubborn, so he made some suggestions.

"Is it possible that those people opposed your father's rescue of you, and that's why Patriarch Huyan and the crown prince jointly killed you?"

Hu Yankang, who had entered a dead end, seemed to have caught a beam of light in an instant.

But thinking of what he had eavesdropped on earlier, he shook his head again.

Since his father didn't care about his life anymore, how could he kill others because of this matter?
Doesn't he know that the fewer people around him at this moment, the more dangerous they are?
Moreover, killing these people in the territory of Daqin is suspected of triggering a war!

Even if Emperor Qin could let them go, Touman Shanyu couldn't...

Is it...

"My son-in-law, what agreement did the prince reach with the Great Qin Emperor?"

Gazing at him inexplicably, Liu Bai was a little puzzled.

"What agreement?"

Hu Yankang glanced at him, thought for a while and then tentatively said.

"Did the prince borrow troops from Daqin?"

Seeing that Liu Bai was silent, Hu Yankang didn't think he didn't know, but thought he had guessed right.

"To kill everyone who dares to kill Touman Shanyu, it must have been negotiated with the Great Qin Emperor..."

"That's right, if that wasn't the case, how could they have killed so many people? I just don't know when the prince will attack the Xiongnu..."

In his opinion, Moton will attack Touman sooner or later.

Therefore, the more I think about it, the more I feel that this guess is correct.

Listening to his soliloquy, Liu Bai was instantly stunned.

What was going on in this man's head?
I just want him to know that he was abandoned, how can he think so much?
