Chapter 546: Lord Chu


Although theoretically, not to mention Wusun, even Hezhong has been approved by the emperor in the autumn of the fourth year of Tian'an, and the emperor agreed to set up the capital protection mansion, and Zhao Han'er, the marquis of Tangyi, sealed 500 households with merit, and led the post of the capital protector of the river, and stayed in the west with the great Sima hussar general Ren Mou, in order to spy on the reality of the real and false enemy of the "Great Qin State".In this way, the bronze pillar of the West Pole of the Han Dynasty has been carried by Ren Hongren and erected to Bukhara on the Amu Darya River, across the desert from the Anxi Empire, so Hezhong and Wusun are theoretically considered the land of the Han Dynasty.Not to mention that many places have set up counties and roads in the Western Regions, when Xie Wu and his party passed through Luntai and Loulan to return to the east, the population here was mixed with Hu and Han, and what they saw was no different from that of Han."

Chigu City is also a mix of Hu and Han, which is different."

But for Xie Wei, if you don't enter the Jade Gate, you won't go home.When she traveled west, the western boundary of the Han Dynasty was at Yumen Pass.There are obstacles on the way to the Great Wall to protect the way, and you can rest in the place every day, as if the "Hanging Spring" where the son-in-law Ren Hong was back then also passed, but he was not born at that time.But after passing the Yumen Pass, it was a vast desert, and Xie was worried about seeing the people in the Heqin mission thirsty and hungry, and even worried about the attacks of wild beasts and Huns.So she has been counting on being able to get to Yumen as soon as possible, this kind of mood is like the sentence of Ban Chao in history: "I don't dare to look at Jiuquan County, but I hope to be born in Yumen Pass." ”Finally, after passing through the white dragon pile, climbing over the three ridges of sand, and passing through the strange rocky devil city, the jade gate was close in front of him.It was late autumn, today is still sunny, cloudless, but the sun is not too strong, the Shule River is very small, the poplar forest of Yushu Spring is the best time, and the Altun Mountain in the far distance, the snow is exceptionally white against the blue sky.Between them is a large earthy mound, standing alone at the end of the world."

Mother, the Jade Gate has arrived."

Yaoguang got out of the car with a tired and tired Xie Worry all the way, and looked at the pass that had appeared in the dream of Xie Wu from a distance, but he was speechless for a long time, and several old servants and maids around Xie Wu also began to wipe their tears.Yaoguang remembers that when he and Ren Hong first came here, they still felt strange.This is obviously a common mound barrier on the border of the Han Dynasty, similar to hundreds of thousands, but why is it that the closer it is, the more exciting it is?"

Because Yumen is the threshold of the Han Dynasty, I am cowardly in my hometown."

This is Ren Hong's explanation to her, he said, Yumen and Yangguan will be crowned with a different meaning from ordinary city barriers, and people and artists will give it more connotations.Ren Hou Ye is not talking about it, he practices it, almost every time he passes the Jade Gate Pass, he leaves a poem that does not rhyme but has wonderful words and is popular."

Qinghai Changyun Dark Snow Mountain, the lonely city looks at Yumen Pass.""

Why should Qiang Di complain about the willows, the spring breeze does not pass the jade gate.""

The long wind is tens of thousands of miles, blowing through the Yumen Pass."

Every Yaoguang helped her husband compose a song to deal with the aftermath, but today's autumn wind is really big.Yaoguang pressed the felt hat on the top of her head for her mother, it was best to return after spring, but she couldn't wait, for people of her age, one season later, one season less."

I want to go to Chang'an, where I grew up, to see the spring colors, and then to Pengcheng County, Chu State, which was sealed by my ancestors, to see the autumn scenery."

After looking at the distance without saying a word for a long time, Xie Xie finally re-boarded the car and walked towards Yumen Pass.When he got closer, he found that there was nothing near the Yumen that he saw from afar, but that there was already an army waiting.Lao Yuan Yaoguang recognized that the child waving at them was the eldest son, Ren Bai.hasn't seen him for a year, and Ren Bai's identity is no longer "Xi'an Hou's eldest son".At the beginning, the heads of Zhizhi Shan Yu, King Dawan, King Kangju Khotan, Wu Qitu and others were sent back to Chang'an, Feng Fengshi also held more than 200 Greeks to offer prisoners, and the Son of Heaven rewarded him for his meritorious deeds, and named Zheng Ji as the Marquis of Anyuan, Feng Fengshi as the Marquis of Yixiang, and Zhong as the Marquis of Guannei for the merit of persuading the envoy to surrender.He also sealed Ren Hong's 5,000 households, making him an unprecedented 30,000 households!

The Son of Heaven seems to feel that the merits of killing the four kings in the first war are not enough to reward, and after the battle of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the three sons of Weiqing were named marquis, and the fourteen-year-old Ren Bai was added as the "Marquis of Guishan", and the seven hundred eaters were the Dawan Guishan City that had been taken by Ren Hong.This move is shocking, because after Jing, the Han Dynasty has an unsuccessful rule, and the Hou States are all east of Taihang, Chenggao, and Wuguan, and Guanxi is not sealed, so as to avoid the mistake of the Western Zhou Dynasty sealing Gyeonggi and finally the royal family getting weaker and weaker.For example, today's son broke this rule and sealed Ren Bai to the west of the Green Ridge, which represents a different meaning, the ministers whispered, Guishan was far away, and there was almost no Han family.The liehou is sealed there, I'm afraid it is not a false Tang Muyi, but a real seal similar to the Zhou Dynasty!

This seems to mean that the Ren family is at least a branch of the family, is it going to Yongzhen West?

Was this the beginning of a round of feudal statehood?

Ren Bai didn't think about it so much, he specially asked for an order to welcome his grandmother, he vaguely remembered that about nine years ago, when his father stepped down from his post and took him back to Chang'an, he was in Yumen Pass, in Po Sui, and in Hanging Spring, and said a lot of past things.At that time, Ren Bai didn't know much, but as he grew up, he watched his father and mother go on expeditions twice, and took care of his sister and two younger brothers as the eldest brother. ”"It's also the banner of my fathers!"

Today, it is his turn to carry this flag to greet his grandmother!

The hundreds of soldiers and flints of the Yumen also stood on both sides with their spears, looking at the convoy of worries, they had heard of the deeds of this princess, when she left the Han land to go to a foreign land and relatives, they were not yet born.With admiration and curiosity in their eyes, the soldiers followed the shouts of the Yumen Commander, and the sound of golden drums sounded at the head of the city.Knock knock, the drum beat is passionate and cheerful, this is the practice of Yumen Pass, every time the strong man of the expedition returns, he will beat the drum to welcome.Although she is a woman who solves her worries, her contributions and sacrifices for the Han are no less than those of any man.After leaving Akatani Castle, he always kept his composure and smiled, and when he heard the drum beat from afar, he was thrilled for a while.It's really strange to say, it was an ordinary drum horn, but it became unusual when it sounded in Yumen Pass, and all kinds of memories of my hometown came to my heart, and the taste was sweet and sour.Xie Worry told herself secretly last night that when she passed the customs, she must not cry, she endured not a single tear when she went out, and when she came back today, she had to smile and enter Handi.Because she is not a weak woman who can't live in her mother's house and goes home desolate, she is the heroine of Akita Castle and the queen mother of Wusun!

This time it is the return of brocade clothes, and the provincial relatives bring their grandchildren!

But today, it was a little difficult to hold back, tears almost fell, her throat seemed to be choked, she could only hurriedly order before losing her voice: "How can you let the city head play solo?"

Let the horizontal blow sound!

”From Yaoguang downwards, as long as they can, they all take out the Qin pipa, Qiang flute, Wusun bone flute, Hu pipa, etc., and even tear up their voices and sing, only accompanied by the drumbeat of the head of the Yumen City.The cheerful music surrounds the carriage of anxiety, so as to hide the faint cry in the carriage when passing through the Yumen Pass.Xie Wei has been strong for a lifetime, endured for forty years, but today she doesn't have to hold on hard, she can't fall down, and the things that can't show weakness are melted by the breath of her hometown, Liu Xie Wu is just like a little girl who has been away from home for a long time and finally returned to her parents, lying in the carriage and crying.She has been called "mother" by the Wusun people for ten years, but today, she only wants to be a lady in the arms of the big man."

Mother, daughters, are back!"

In the winter of 60 B.C., Chang'an has received the news that it has passed through the Yumen Pass, and it will arrive in Chang'an around the winter solstice.So the ministers of the two governments of the imperial court began to quarrel again, mainly for the treatment of relieving worries?

The meritorious heroes will be knighted according to the merit book, but the return of the princess to China is unprecedented, and there is no precedent in the past, so it is very controversial.First of all, it is necessary to make sure that it was the queen mother who relieved her worries in Wusun, and once she returned to Han after passing the Jade Gate, she was still the "princess" of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.Among the ministers, such as Xiao Wangzhi and others, who are pedantic and admit death, have been thrown away, and the remaining brains are more flexible, knowing that the princess has worked hard to relieve worries, and the relationship between the Son of Heaven, the queen and Ren Hong is not ordinary, so the ceremony must be grand, and the treatment must be rich.The old prime minister Bingji played: "In the Han system, the princesses are all princesses, and the ceremonial clothes are more than the marquis, and there are Tang Muyi. ”The emperor often gave "Tang Muyi" to the princesses, in addition to his own daughters, there were also given to the daughters of the princes.For example, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty's younger brother King Liang Xiao died, and his mother Empress Dowager Dou was heartbroken.The princesses had no actual dominion over these "Tang Muyi", but they could collect taxes."

And the Son of Heaven sister revered, plus the eldest princess, the dress is better than the princes and kings."

The eldest princess is not necessarily the eldest daughter, but often a sister who has a good relationship with the emperor, such as the mother of Empress Xiaowu Chen, and the princess Liu of Guantao, who was favored by the Empress Dowager Dou, and was named "the eldest princess".Then there is the princess of Eyi, she is among the daughters of Emperor Wu, Tang Muyi was originally at the bottom, but because of the credit of raising Emperor Xiaozhao, and also for the eldest princess, in the province, Emperor Zhao benefited Tang Muyi three times, and even did not hesitate to violate the convention, Yuanfeng gave her Lantian in Guanzhong in the first year.In the eyes of Bingji and others, adding the seal to relieve worries as the "eldest princess", and then picking a good Tang Muyi for her, this is an extremely exceptional favor, after all, the relief of worries is after the king of Chu Yuan, and the royal blood is far away, and her relatives also have the meaning of atoning for the sins of the ancestor Chu Wangwu.But no matter how far away it is, it has to talk about relatives, Liu Xun wants to call Yaoguang "aunt", and solving his worries is equivalent to his aunt and grandmother.And in the past 20 years, he has also heard countless stories of relieving worries, and admires this aunt and grandmother who is harmonious with the country and relatives, and who is impressively in a foreign land, and has increased the prestige of the Han family."

The minister is old and thinks about it, and he is willing to be buried as a skeleton and a Han land."

This is to relieve the worries to Liu Xun, so that the emperor sighed, so today the ministers discussed, when the title of the eldest princess, given thousands of Tang Muyi, to the princes and kings to greet the courtesy, Liu Xun fell into thought."

In the more than 140 years since the founding of the Han Dynasty, there are more than hundreds of eldest princesses and princesses, and their merits can be compared to those who relieve worries?"

The answer is no.Liu Xun said: "Zhongjie Zhenghou Su Gong was detained by the Xiongnu for 19 years, and when he returned, he was not much, so Li Ling still ridiculed and said, the position is not a subject country, and the money is only two million.And Princess Xie Wu stayed in Wusun for nearly 40 years, and joined forces with Wu to destroy Hu, and contributed to the stability of Beiting, making Wusun a Han subordinate state, and sent troops to help Han several times.Today, the princes are calculating, do they also want to make the world laugh and treat the heroes slowly?

”So what to do?

The ministers looked at each other, this was already the limit of their imagination, and they ran out of ideas for a while.People who have ideas, such as Zhang Chang and others, don't dare to say rashly, he knows that the Son of Heaven has a plan in his heart.Liu Xun did have a bold idea, the ministers wanted to make the treatment of the eldest princess of Xie Wei Feng better than that of the princes and kings, which means that it has not yet arrived, just as it is better than 2,000 stones and 2,000 stones.In his mind, the loud scolding that Emperor Gao used to stabilize Han Xin flashed in his mind: "The eldest husband is the prince, that is, the real king's ear, why fake!"

”As the Son of Heaven, the whole world is the king's land, and when you talk and do things, you have to appear bigger!

He wants to tell the world, and also tell Ren Hong, Dahan, has never forgotten his daughter, and he will not lose the hero who returned in vain!"

Haven't you heard about Princess Lu Yuan?"

Liu Xunti's one is Liu Le, the eldest daughter of Emperor Gao and Empress Lu, who is married to Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, and his fiefdom is scary to say.The whole Xue County is hers!

Later, it was passed on to his son Zhang Yan and established the Lu State.Moreover, because Qi Zhuohui Wang Fei was afraid that Empress Lu would kill him, he took the initiative to sacrifice Chengyang County to Princess Lu Yuan and respected him as the queen mother.Princess Lu Yuan is undoubtedly the largest princess in the Han Dynasty, with two counties.Liu Xun said: "Follow the matter of the eldest princess of Lu Yuan, make the princess of Xie Wu obey the same princes and kings, change Pengcheng County to Chu State, and 100,000 households in its country are all sealed and relieved of worries as Tang Muyi, called the princess of Chu State.This seal ends with the body, and does not pass on to future generations. ”Pengcheng County used to be the state of Chu, and about ten years ago, Liu Yanshou, the king of Chu, was removed from the country for the crime of treason.Now that the state of Chu has been restored, this is almost equivalent to relieving worries and sealing the king!

Just now, a minister wanted to say that it was not the Liu family but the king, and the world would attack him, but he was stunned before he could say it.Wait, solve your worries, she is indeed surnamed Liu, and she does not violate the ancestral system!

Liu Xun has made up his mind and said: "Princess Xie Wei is the queen of Chu Yuan, so she is called the lord of Chu after her relatives, and today I want to make this title worthy of the name!"

”"Lord of Chu, princess of Chu also!"
