Eastern Jin Dynasty: My powerful father

Chapter 250 Return to Yinchuan
Suo Xia and Che Yin led Shan Yutai's officials and waited at the south gate of Yinchuan early in the morning.

Also coming with them to greet Huan Xi were the virtuous kings Tiefu and Xiongnu, Liu Wuhuan and Liu Kuantou.

The two of them were summoned by Huan Xi and led their troops southward to pay a special visit.

Amid the eager anticipation of the crowd, a horse galloped over. The knight reined in the reins and shouted to the crowd:

"Drive by Liang Gong, it's less than ten miles away!"

After saying that, he immediately rode away again.

Everyone quickly tidied up their appearance.

Liu Wuhuan was wearing Han Chinese clothes and with his hairstyle, he looked a bit nondescript.

When he saw everyone holding their crowns and straightening their clothes, he quickly asked his wife Tuoba Yan:
"Are my clothes still neat?"

Tuoba Yan laughed softly:
"How can Da Shanyu care about these things because he doesn't stick to trivial matters? As long as his husband serves him wholeheartedly, even if he meets you in ragged clothes, Da Shanyu will undress him and give him a gift."

At least Liu Yan's wife, Princess Youxian, was left in the city and was not qualified to come.

The reason why Tuoba Yan can appear outside the south gate is not because of her noble status.

Liu Yan was so moved that he burst into tears and said:

Liu Wuhuan said quickly:

Liu Wuhuan felt that what his wife said was reasonable, so he no longer worried about his appearance.

He was not in a hurry to talk to Suo Xia and Che Yin. Instead, he walked up to Liu Wuhuan and Liu Kuantou and asked:
"Two great kings, are you alright?"

Instead, Tuoba Yan's aunt Murong Ying and her two younger brothers Huan Xi and Huan Han accompanied her on the trip.

When Suo Xia arranged the pick-up list, he naturally included Tuoba Yan in it, so that Murong Ying would not be unhappy if he could not see his concubine.

"I'm thinking of you, the great Chan, and everything is fine with Xiao Wang."

After everyone stood up, Huan Xi and Murong Ying, the acting king and queen mother behind him, walked out of the carriage hand in hand.

Everyone saluted one after another. The Han people called Liang Gong and the Hu people called Da Chanyu. They were quite distinct.

Huan Xi smiled and said:

Huan Xi took Murong Ying with him during his northern tour, perhaps out of political considerations. However, Huan Xi only brought one female family member, Murong Ying, with him on this trip. Anyone who is blind knows that this acting king and queen mother is now favored by Huan Xi.

"You don't need to be polite, just get up."

When the carriage stopped in front of the crowd, the curtain was opened, and the first person to step out was Duke Liang of Jin Dynasty.

The distance of ten miles is not that far. More than half an hour later, the Northern Patrol team finally appeared in everyone's sight.

The cavalrymen who opened the way separated to the left and right sides, and a four-wheeled carriage came slowly. Everyone waited with bated breath.

"Since Xiao Wang and Da Shanyu were separated, he has been praying for the day of reunion. Today, I can see Da Shanyu's grace again. Even if I die in this life, I will have no regrets."

Liu Wuhuan glanced at his brother in surprise, and suddenly felt that his answer just now was inappropriate, so he squeezed out a few tears, but after all, they were not as natural as Liu Yan's ugly head.

Of course, Liu Kuantou also had his own reasons. In the words he often mentioned to others, he said: The one who gave birth to me is my parents; the one who values ​​me is the Chanyu. If Huan Xi hadn't insisted on it, how could he have gotten one-third of the Tiefu Xianbei, and was canonized by the Jin Dynasty as the Youxian King.

Ever since Huan Xi defeated Fu Xiong and captured the Tiefu Xiongnu, the two had no chance to meet again. Today, they reunited after a long absence. Only Liu Yantou knew how much of his tears were real and how fake.

Huan Xi comforted Liu Yan for a few words and then said:
"Aying often mentioned to me that she wanted to thank King Youxian in person for his help."

As soon as she finished speaking, Murong Ying thanked her and said:

"I was desperate that day and luckily met King Youxian. If King Youxian hadn't made it happen, I would have missed this good match."

Huan Xi said it was a favor to protect him, but Murong Ying originally wanted to use the road to go to the Yu State and then escape from the Yu State back to the Yan State. However, Liu Kuantou forcibly sent her to Chang'an to be presented to Huan Xi.

Now that Murong Ying was favored, she was very grateful to Liu Yan. As she said, if it weren't for Liu Yan, how could she have met Huan Xi and get such a wishful husband.

The wind beside your pillow can be a good wind that helps people rise to the top, or it can be a bad wind that makes people fall into the abyss.

Later Zhao general Zhang Jack presented the former Zhao Anding princess Liu to Shi Hu, and then they both became prosperous. Finally, after Liu's son Shi Shi came to the throne, Zhang Jack was able to control the government.

When Liu Yan saw Murong Ying thanking her, he quickly gave way and did not dare to accept her courtesy.

After all, there is a difference between superiority and inferiority. Murong Ying is no longer the woman who let Liu Yan's hair fall. She is not only the acting king and queen mother canonized by the Jin Dynasty, but also Huan Xi's concubine.

After Murong Ying stood up, she glanced at Tuoba Yan beside Liu Wuhuan and asked:
"But Yan'er in person?"

Of course Murong Ying did not know Tuoba Yan. Tuoba Yan married Liu Wuhuan in the seventh year of Xiankang (AD 341), while Murong Ying succeeded her aunt who died of illness and married into Liu Wuhuan in the second year of Jianyuan (AD 344). Daiguo.

Tuoba Yan took a step forward and saluted:
"Replying to the mother, it is the daughter. The daughter pays homage to the mother."

Murong Ying was overjoyed and hurriedly called Huan Tie and Huan Han to come forward and recognize her sister.

However, an embarrassing scene occurred. When Huan Tie and Huan Han recognized their relatives, for a moment, they didn't know what identity they should take with Tuoba Yan's two concubines Liu Xiwuqi and Liu Weichen.

Logically speaking, Liu Xiwuqi and Liu Weichen should also call Huan Tie and Huan Han uncles, but they were adopted as adopted sons by Huan Xi. As Huan Xi's stepsons, Huan Tie and Huan Han even changed their surnames. , it seems that they should be treated as brothers.

Of course, these are just minor issues, insignificant. On the grassland, due to the existence of the custom of stepmarriage, the relationship between brothers is much more chaotic than this.

In the past, the Xiongnu cavalry were an important military force under Huan Xi, and they would be mobilized whenever there was a war.

But after Huanxi surrendered to Hexi Xianbei, the status of Tiefu Xiongnu naturally plummeted.

After all, the entire Tiefu Xiongnu, after several years of development, only had less than 40,000 tents, not even as many as the Begging tribesmen who were moved by Huan Xi.

In fact, it is not easy for Tiefu Xiongnu to still have such a scale.

In the first year of Taixing (318), Liu Hu, the leader of the Tiefu Xiongnu at that time, attacked the Dai Kingdom and was beaten to the point where he fled to the outside of the Great Wall alone. His cousin Liu Lugu led his people to surrender to the Dai Kingdom, thus forming the current Dai Kingdom. The Ministry of National Dugu.

After Liu Hu returned to Shuofang, he finally recovered some strength. Fourteen years ago, in the seventh year of Xiankang (341), he was defeated by Dai again and died in anger.

If Liu Wuhuan had not professed his vassalship to Dai in the past ten years to recuperate and recuperate, the Tiefu Xiongnu would not be as big as it is now.

Of course, Huan Xi is not a person who likes the new and hates the old. In the process of starting his own business, he always kept the contribution of Tiefu Xiongnu in his heart.

Just like he will never forget that it was Deng Qiang who presented Han Yan to him, and it was Liu Yanhutou who presented Murong Ying to him.
