Chapter 226
What's more, the imperial court did not come to hear the news. They all thought that the imperial court would not agree to the marriage, and asked Qin Zhijian to let them take back the remaining cities, but Qin Zhijian persuaded them all to go back, and instead let Jin Liu go. The news of the surprise attack by the Huns spread, and all the soldiers and generals were very angry when they heard that the Huns negotiated terms with them and at the same time sent people to attack their Zhenbei Princess. They were even more angry, and asked to fight to the end to take back the city seized by the Huns. If possible, they were even willing to pacify the Huns in one fell swoop. As for the Hun princess, she was just a woman to them. The women enjoyed by the emperor have nothing to do with them.

This kind of anger spread in the Daqin army camp, and soon spread to the Xiongnu. The general Ke Muzhu of the Xiongnu was defeated by Qin Zhijian. When he went out to fight, he was stabbed blind by Qin Zhijian. With only one eye, he was already very afraid of Qin Zhijian, but he didn't want to lose face as the number one warrior of the Huns, so he held back and didn't pass the news to the higher-ups, only waiting for Qin Zhijian's positive response.

Qin Zhijian didn't make him wait for a long time, and sent envoys to the Xiongnu, who were about to pick him up and hand over all the cities of Daqin. As for the princess, since the Huns were willing to give it to them, they reluctantly served as their subordinates, arrogantly The appearance made Ke Muzhu almost crush his fist, but he didn't dare to move him a bit. He offered delicious food and drink, and hurried back to the capital to discuss with Shanyu Duhu Quanci.

"You want all the cities? Do you still want to marry a princess?" Duhu Quanci stood up from the big chair covered with tiger skin after hearing what Ke Muzhu said. Liu Yuan looked very majestic, "Ke Muzhu, what did you tell me at the beginning? Didn't you say that there was a way to prevent Qin Zhijian from coming to the northwest? If I hadn't listened to you, how could I agree to tear it up?" The contract between the Xiongnu and Daqin asked you to lead troops to attack the city of Daqin? Do you still remember why I agreed to you? If it weren’t for the severe drought, the grasslands were yellow, and so many cattle and sheep died, the people couldn’t live. Will I agree to let you do this? I have also collected all the silver and grain to ensure the supply ahead. Why, now that Qin Zhijian is here, you are about to flee back with your tail between your legs? You look like the number one of my Huns. A warrior? Just like a Shiba dog on the prairie, stupid and greedy!"

It was not the first time that Ke Muzhu, the number one warrior of the Huns, was defeated by Qin Zhijian. Qin Zhijian defeated the Huns a few years ago. The defeated army was trained and led by him, but was defeated by Qin Zhijian in one fell swoop, making both the invincible army and him a laughing stock. Xizuo learned that Qin Zhijian also has a weakness now, and originally wanted to attack on both sides, while seizing Qin Zhijian's weakness, that is, his fiancée Jin Liu, while attacking Daqin's robbing city. Due to the severe drought, Du Hu Quanci, who had never supported him, also agreed to his request, but what he didn't expect was that the person he had been lurking in Daqin for so long failed to catch Jin Liu, and his own brother Wu Lixie That's how he died.

But now Qin Zhijian has not only come to the northwest, but also has a strong army and a strong army, which is even more powerful than a few years ago, leaving him with no ability to parry. This, but the shortage of food and grass has also begun. Without food and grass, the soldiers can't eat enough and can fight like this?
"Your Majesty, Qin Zhijian is really too arrogant. Our Hun army is brave and good at fighting. If it weren't for the shortage of food and grass, the soldiers would not be able to fight without enough food. How could they be in such a mess like they are now!"

"Food and grass?" Duhu Quanci sneered, with a hideous face, "For this war, do you know how much food and grass we have spent? Even the people in the capital can't get enough to eat, let alone the people in other places. There are many complaints, and some people have even started to spread rumors that it is because I am fatuous and incompetent that I was bewitched by you, a treacherous official who is eager for quick success, tore up the treaty, and broke the peace that was finally established. Ke Muzhu, you still want to blame me for not fully supporting You?"

Du Hu Quanci was talking about the people of the Huns, but he was actually more worried about the opinions of the powerful ministers of the Huns. If these people gathered together to rebel, then he would never want to be king. At this time, he really regretted it. And, in the past, the Xiongnu only harassed the border towns of Daqin to grab some food and things, but it was all right. If Ke Muzhu, a war madman, hadn't proposed to occupy the cities of Daqin and rob more food and things, he wouldn't have He went crazy with Ke Muzhu for a while, and now it was not enough to be cleaned up once. He tore up the treaty and attacked Daqin again. He also killed Daqin by surprise and took over a dozen cities. To be honest, he was very happy at first After all, a lot of things were shipped back, but later he found that the longer the battle lasted, the greater their losses. All the people rushed to the front to resist Qin Zhijian's army, and everything in the occupied city was destroyed. The people of Daqin tried their best to hide them, even if they couldn't hide them and burned them, they wouldn't let them rob them. Although this was the result of their robbing every year, he didn't care about it. He only knew that Ke Muzhu wanted him to go to the front line uninterruptedly. Sending food and grass, this result was far from what he had imagined before.

That's why in order to end this war, he thought of returning the city, leaving only the three cities near the border. He was even willing to send his favorite princess Xiang Song to marry him so that the emperor of Daqin would not hold them accountable for breaking the treaty.

Seeing that Ke Muzhu couldn't lift his head when he was scolded by him, he only hated himself for believing in him, a useless thing, not being able to defeat Qin Zhijian, and being defeated by him every time!

"Damn the humble minister, it's the humble minister who is incompetent and embarrassing the king. Now it seems that he can only agree to Qin Zhijian's request, return all the cities, and send Princess Xiangsong there." Qing, wishing to come up and bite himself, Ke Muzhu knelt down on his knees, "Besides, isn't there a trick for the king to send Princess Xiangsong there? Maybe we can put Qin Zhijian to death this time, the new emperor of Daqin Don't you also fear Qin Zhijian's military power?"

"If this is the case, the emperor of Great Qin should happily agree to our request, instead of asking Qin Zhijian to return the remaining three cities and humiliating Xiang Song!" Du Hu Quanci gritted his teeth and stared. Ke Mu said.

Du Hu Quan once admitted that he had other intentions in sending Princess Xiangsong to Daqin. He knew why the current emperor of Daqin sent Qin Zhijian to the northwest. Jian's fear, as long as Qin Zhijian is around, he will feel uneasy all day, and Qin Zhijian is also the confidant of their Xiongnu. He sent Princess Xiangsong there, in fact, he wanted to unite with the emperor of Qin to deal with Qin Zhijian. He thought that after he put forward this condition, the emperor of Daqin would simply agree to it. After all, the three cities are nothing to Daqin, and being able to go out of Qin Zhijian will undoubtedly relieve the emperor of Daqin. With Qin Zhijian's appearance, the emperor of Daqin didn't seem to have any intention of cooperating with him. In this way, he felt that it was useless to send his beloved Xiangsong there. After all, it is his most beloved daughter. Delivered!
"Father, my son believes in the words of the great general. The emperor of Great Qin will definitely want to get rid of Qin Zhijian. As long as he can get rid of Qin Zhijian, I can do whatever I want!" A beautiful girl with red lambskin boots, velvet wool wrapped around her head full of braids, slender eyebrows, big eyes and ruddy lips walked in, looking at Duhu Quanci firmly.

"Chanson!" Du Hu Quan once glanced at the girl and frowned.

"Princess!" Ke Muzhu stepped forward and saluted with one hand on his chest.

"General!" Xiang Song glanced at Ke Muzhu, nodded, then looked at Du Hu Quanci, and said firmly again: "Father, my son believes that the news of the general is not wrong. After becoming the emperor, the new emperor sat on the dragon chair with the help of Qin Zhijian's military power. He must be afraid of the military power in Qin Zhijian's hands now, and eager to take it away. The military power must be handed over to others. As long as Qin Zhijian does not have military power, the emperor of Daqin will definitely try to get rid of Qin Zhijian. As long as there is no Qin Zhijian, Daqin is not in the pocket of our Huns? For the Huns, for the father King, my son is willing to sacrifice everything!"

"Xiang Song! My good daughter, I didn't love you for nothing!" Du Hu Quanci patted her on the shoulder touched by Xiang Song's words, "But you have to know that even if you go to Daqin, the emperor of Daqin doesn't want to be with us. If you cooperate, you will have a miserable life there!"

The expression on Xiang Song's face remained unchanged, "I'm not afraid, my minister said, as long as it's for the Huns, why is my father, my son, willing to sacrifice everything!"

Seeing Xiang Song's unquestionable loyalty, Du Hu Quanci nodded with deep comfort, "Well, you are my good daughter, no matter what the result of your visit this time, you are for me and for the Xiongnu I will definitely remember the sacrifices I made, and I will definitely prepare the best dowry for you!"

"Father, I don't need a dowry!" Xiang Song shook his head, his face turned cold, "Anyway, those dowry will belong to Daqin, and I don't want to waste a sliver of Xiongnu's grain!"

Duhu Quanci was really touched, how lucky he was to have such a good daughter, he felt that he didn't love her for nothing, he didn't know how to express his pride as a father, he kept nodding his head, and said repeatedly agreed.

With Duhu Quanci's consent, Xiang Song left Du Hu Quanci's big tent, and waited silently outside. After a while, Ke Muzhu also came out, took a look at Xiang Song, and was taken away by her. To a small lake not far away.

"The princess really understands righteousness. The king has been praising the princess to the humble minister all the time."

There was a sneer on Xiang Song's face, and there was no trace of coldness in the beautiful eyes in the slightly sunken eye sockets, "General, you clearly know why I insist on going to Daqin, so why are you pretending here!"

Ke Muzhu frowned slightly, looked up at Xiang Song, saw her cold eyes shot at him like a sharp sword, and was slightly stunned, "Could it be that the princess is for Wu Lixie..."

"Shut up! You are not qualified to say his name!" Ke Muzhu just said Wu Lixie's name, Princess Xiang Song's eyes widened, she pulled out the soft whip from her waist and threw it at him, but it seemed that she was just Wanting to scare him, he didn't really hit him, so he withdrew his hand, gripped the soft whip tightly, and said angrily: "It's all your fault, if it wasn't for you and my father The king said he wanted to attack Daqin, and he forced Wu Lixie to go to Daqin to do some fine work. He would not die either. He died so badly that even the corpse would not be transported. Don’t you dream of him every night when you sleep? ?”

"Princess, although Wu Lixie is the younger brother of Weichen, he is also a subject of our Huns. Naturally, he has to do things for the Huns! It is his negligence for failing to complete the task. How can the princess blame Weichen, let alone him? He is the princess' sweetheart, even if he is the princess' son-in-law, he should step forward when the court needs him!" Ke Muzhu's complexion also turned livid, and he said through gritted teeth, Wu Lixie is his younger brother, with the same father. The younger brother of the same mother, they grew up together. He is the number one warrior of the Huns, and his younger brother Wu Lixie is second only to him. He believes in Wu Lixie's ability, so he let him go to Daqin, and Wu Lixie He also brought back a lot of information about Da Qin, but he was also defeated by Qin Zhijian. If Qin Zhijian wasn't cunning, those people not only didn't hold him back, but he couldn't see through their plan to rush back halfway. Wu Lixie will not die either, thinking of Qin Zhijian, Ke Muzhu's eyes sparkled with anger, "Princess shouldn't blame all the responsibilities on her own people now, we have a common enemy, Daqin! Qin Zhijian! As long as Qin Zhijian dies, Great Qin will fall into our hands sooner or later!"
