Sunset Loulan

Huyan Jie's power was too great, she had always been a high and mighty person, she had always kept to herself. In the Shanshan Dynasty, she had to offend countless other nobles, many of them were dissatisfied with her, but the King of Shan Shan Shan did not say it out loud, and they all felt dissatisfied in their hearts.

Now that Huyan Jie has been captured, it is hard to predict her life. His arch-enemies in the court, naturally had to add insult to injury, but before Peach Blossom finished her sentence, someone said, "Master, Huyan Jie is extremely right. Huyan Jie relies on His Majesty's care and love for him, he has always been arrogant. I think he is a pro-Hun and a distant hulk. How could the Han emissary let such a person live? Now that the envoy of the Huns has died in our country, we can no longer rely on the Huns. If the conflict between Shanshan and Han people were provoked because of him alone, then how many people in our country would be able to fight? Furthermore, there are no reinforcements outside of our country, so it would be hard to protect them.

"For the sake of the people, please reconsider." Everyone said in unison.

"For the people …" This reason was too far-fetched, but as matters stood, Huyan Jie must have had a hard time escaping death. Killing Ban Chao to avenge him would not help. Not to mention that the king of Shanshen Kingdom was a selfish and timid person. After thinking about it for a long time, he decided to keep his carriage safe and not pursue the matter.

Peach Blossom had her own plans. Without Huan Yanjie, Shanshan posed less of a threat to the exalted kingdom. The exalted king would take advantage of this opportunity to learn how to lay down his life, work hard, and not have to rely on others when the country was strong. In the early days, when Hu Yanjie attacked the elite, he killed countless elite citizens. The elite people only had hatred for Hu Yanjie. Peach Blossom took this opportunity to get rid of him.

After the big man comforts Shanshan, he will surely calm down the Western Regions one after another. This is a big trend in the world, and Peach Blossom has keenly noticed that even if he and Shanshan are to ally again in the future, it would be better for them to be on equal footing and be under the protection of the big man. It would be better than being married off in a small country like Shanshan to protect themselves.

After hearing the opinions of the crowd, the Shansan King decided not to go back on his words. It was just that he couldn't sleep through the night. His heart felt like a giant boulder weighing down on him, making him unable to breathe.

In contrast, the emissary's inn was filled with cheers and laughter. A banquet was arranged late at night to celebrate everyone's victory. This time, Guo Qing was even invited. With such a big incident happening in the city, how could Guo Xun sleep? Even if Ban Chao didn't invite him, he would still ask Ban Chao for an explanation. However, he could not blame Ban Chao in front of so many people. Everyone was drinking their liquor, except Guo, who was depressed.

Ban Chao briefly summarized what happened tonight. Other than the 33 warriors who went to kill the enemy, there was another person who went back to the army camp to deliver a letter. The two guards, Hu Yanjie, and Ban Chao also recorded down all their achievements. Then he raised his glass and said, "Ban Chao depends entirely on you. Tonight, we all call you brothers regardless of whether they are of high or low status. Without your help, there will be no alliance between Shan Shan and Han men. I, Ban Chao, would like to toast everyone. " With that, he finished the wine in his cup in one gulp. The others all raised their goblets to congratulate him while laughing heartily.

Guo Jing also raised her glass and said, "Sir Si Ma, this time you have done the right thing. It's no wonder that you are acknowledged by Sir Dou. After going back and forth, the sun will rise."

Ban Chao laughed, "How could I dare? These are all my brothers' help..." Ban Chao stood up and said, "I have to say, Brother Chen Mu has put in the most effort to get rid of the Huns, and because of that, Brother Chen was stabbed by Huyan Jie. Even if he is a little careless, his life is in danger, but he still took part in the battle, which is truly admirable.

Chen Mu got up and said, "Sir …"

Ban Chao waved his hand and smiled, "I said, tonight we will only address each other as brothers. How could you forget? Brother Chen, how are your injuries? "

Chen Xie hurriedly corrected himself, "Thank you for your concern, Brother. I've already applied some medicine upon my return. There's nothing major wrong now. I expect that I'll be able to recover in a few days."

Ban Chao nodded his head and laughed, "That's good, Brother Chen, if it wasn't for Little Shuang's arrow, this matter wouldn't have been so easy to succeed. Not only did he help us catch Huyan Jie, he even saved our lives. So it's not just you. Your whole family deserves credit. "Come, everyone, let's toast to Brother Chen!"

Chen Mubai was so moved that he could not speak. He drank the wine in his glass, then threw his glass to the ground and knelt down on one knee. "It's a great honor for my brother to honor me, this is the glory of my family. Chen Mubai has no way of recompense for it, he only follows his lord for the rest of his life, even if it costs him his life …"

Ban Chao quickly helped Chen Mu up. "Brother, you don't have to follow me. You just have to serve the emperor and the big man. I have sent word to Lord Dou Gu to send a thousand light cavalry to Shan Shan Shan, and in addition to intimidating the King of Shan Shan Shan, the letter also mentions that from now on those troops will all be under your command. As long as Lord Dou sends troops, you will temporarily command the affairs of the Western Regions. "

Guo Jie refused to give in and said, "Before, you promised to promote him to the Western Regions for the sake of this man. That's one thing." Does this not require the consent of the emperor and the imperial government? "What right do you have to appoint this person?"

Ban Chao smiled faintly, "As the saying goes, you will not accept orders from the outside world. If the Emperor sends someone to appoint someone, I wonder how long it will be before the Western Regions is in charge? I suggest Chen Mubai to represent the Western Regions to protect our country. I presume that Lord Dou will not object, so it's only a matter of time before the Imperial Court sends someone to protect our country. Brother Guo, are we going to leave the Western Regions after we leave? "

Guo Yi was speechless. She took a sip of her wine and remained silent.

Chen Xie frowned. "Brother Ban …" "Are you leaving?"

Ban Chao nodded, "The purpose of sending out an envoy has been accomplished, Brother Guo and I still need to go back and report. The matters of the Western Regions can only be left to you for the time being. "

Chen Nou held Ban Chao's hand and said, "This trip to Luoyang is ten thousand li away. I wonder when you and I will meet again?" After saying that, his eyes turned red. He hadn't been with Ban Chao for long, and now that he heard that Ban Chao was going to leave, he felt extremely reluctant.

Ban Chao also felt sad, but he was not like Chen Mubai, who was a man of character and did not like to put sadness on his face. Seeing Chen Mubai like this, he comforted him, "Isn't he still here? Besides, how can you handle matters in the Western Regions by yourself? "Apart from Shan Shan Shan, there are still thirty-five other kingdoms to visit. As long as Lord Dou or the Emperor orders it, I will definitely visit the Western Regions. That will be the day we meet again."

Guo Shan said, "Maybe when Master Sima comes back, he will be able to take over your post as the protector of the Western Regions."
