    The north wind blew cold all night, snowflakes drifted thousands of miles away, the world became vast, and the mountains and rivers changed colors!

    The Xiongnu envoy appeared outside Xuchang City in the heavy snow. The team was less than 300 people, but it drove thousands of horses and 500 camels. It also brought a large number of grassland specialties, including gold, agate, jade, and fur.  , animal tendons, hornsthe cargo boxes were piled up into a hill. Those who didn't know better thought they were a caravan!

    This is not surprising. The Hun envoys of all dynasties came to the hinterland of the Central Plains like this. For them, worshiping the Han emperor was secondary. Using these specialties to exchange for scarce supplies on the grasslands from the Han people was the main thing.  Yes, the social production structure of the Huns was simple. They knew nothing but herding. They couldn't even make pottery bowls for drinking water, let alone exquisite porcelain, ironware, and bronzeware!

    But we cannot live without these daily necessities, and there are only two ways to get them, trading or robbing. However, the cost of robbing has become higher in recent years. Outside Yanmen Pass, the 'Jingguan' built with numerous bones is  The best proof, so they had no choice but to trade. A good Xiongnu horse on the border of the Great Wall can only be exchanged for one iron pot at most, and it has a price but no market. The people in the mainland of the Central Plains are much kinder and can be exchanged for two pots.  Trading everywhere, such a good opportunity, naturally the Huns envoy would not let it go!

    You know, on the grasslands, if the herdsmen can give their daughters an iron pot as a gift when marrying off their daughters, it is a very honorable thing. If they add a bag of salt, it will be even more remarkable. After getting the news, there will be a large number of  The Hun young man came to snatch the bride with a machete, half for the woman, and half for the iron pot and salt!

    When a guest comes, the host naturally has to welcome him. The city gate of Xuchang opens wide, and a group of five hundred black armored cavalry rushes out. They are all wearing iron armor and holding weapons. The leader is a strong man like an iron tower, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist.  Carrying a pair of iron spurge, it was none other than Xiao Yi's number one general, Dian Wei. He was ordered to leave the city, firstly to deliver some living supplies to the Huns, and secondly, to monitor their every move!

    "Brothers, listen carefully. The Governor has an order to closely monitor the Xiongnu camp. If these steppe wolves cause trouble for no reason and harass the Han people, they will be killed without mercy!" Dian Wei's roar came out like thunder.  , the surrounding snowflakes shattered.

    "No!"

    Five hundred black-armored cavalry responded in unison. The Huns are just defeated. The bones of the "Jingguan" outside Yanmen Pass can prove it. If you don't accept it, kill them!

    A tiger was sent outside the city to monitor the group of prairie wolves, and the city was not idle either. The Imperial City Forbidden Army and ordinary people were almost all mobilized to clear the snow!

    The heavy snow that fell all day and night certainly added to the beauty of Xuchang City, but it also hindered road traffic and caused a lot of trouble for the upcoming pilgrimage ceremony. We couldn't let the civil and military officials and the Huns envoys salute in the snow.  Therefore, the Prime Minister's Office issued an order - everyone goes out to clear the snow, the common people sweep the streets, and the imperial army sweeps the imperial city. It must be clean and tidy!

    At the same time, the civil and military officials also began to dress up at home. Their court uniforms were neat, their armors were shiny, and their hair was combed meticulously. Some young officials even specially put foundation on their faces, preparing to impress those with their handsome and unrestrained demeanor.  Barbarians from the grassland!

    Being able to make people 'handsome' to death is also a skill!

    After some preparations, Xuchang City suddenly took on a new look, with bluestone roads, red street walls, and snow-covered roofs. Looking at the pavilions and palaces from a distance, and looking at the quiet alleys up close, it was beautiful and full of vitality!

    All the Imperial Guards in the city have been dispatched, with bows strung and swords unsheathed. They stand guard every five steps and sentry every ten steps. Flags are waving. They line up from the city gate all the way to Sima Gate, and then extend to the Five Phoenixes on the east side of the imperial city.  In front of the building, this is where the emperor of the Han family is about to receive the Huns envoys.

    At noon, drums and music were blaring, and hundreds of civil and military officials, including the emperor's relatives and relatives, rushed to the imperial city one after another. They entered from Sima Gate in order according to their status and rank, and were arranged under the Wufeng Tower.  Let the attendants go to the harem to invite the young emperor to come out. Prime Minister Cao Cao, wearing a bright red court dress and a sword on his waist, stood at the top of the imperial steps and personally presided over all matters in the palace!

    There were about 300 people from the Xiongnu mission, and only 30 of them were allowed to enter the city, less than one-tenth. And these people, escorted by hundreds of black armored cavalry, could only go as far as Sima Gate, and they could actually go in to worship.  The emperor of the Han family only has three envoys. As for the others, they can at most kneel down and salute outside Sima Gate!

    All of this was specially arranged by Cao Cao, just to tell the Huns clearly that the Emperor of the Han family is not something you can meet upon meeting, let alone everyone!

    "Pah! Pah! Pah!"

    At three quarters of noon, with the sound of three whips, the young emperor Liu Xie, surrounded by a group of servants, slowly climbed onto the platform.Fenglou, today he also prepared carefully. He changed the bath water three times, and his whole body was white and rosy. Then he put on a brand new imperial crown, a crown of heaven on his head, and an emperor's sword on his waist.  , the little face is even powdered, but he is a handsome young emperor!

    Liu Xie knew that in addition to the three Huns envoys who came to worship today, the envoys from the princes were also standing under the Wufeng Tower, waiting to see the majesty of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. This was the best opportunity to show himself to the world.  It must be perfect, so every move must be made with extreme caution!

    Similarly, in order to show the royal majesty and to support the little emperor, Princess Haiyan also attended the event in a bright red dress, with her hair tied high, a crested jade hairpin, and around her waist was the golden golden sword that never left her body.  With a scimitar in hand, the maid Lingling and the little eunuch Hua Xin were holding her long cloak from behind. After sitting upright, a pair of big sky blue eyes began to scan the crowd of ministers, but their little faces were expressionless!

    "Long live, long live, long live my emperor!"

    "Your Highness, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"

    The ministers knelt down and saluted, shouting "Long Live the Mountain", resounding through the sky. They worked harder than usual, and they all felt like they were beating like chickens!

    "No courtesy - stay flat!" The little emperor raised his hands flat, his face showing solemnity!

    "Announcement~~The Huns envoys are coming in to pay homage to my Majesty, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty!"

    Everything was ready. The chief of ceremonies downstairs sang praises with a loud and high voice, which was slightly better than the tenors of later generations. There was no other way. If the singer made a mistake, he would at most deduct some money. If the chief of ceremonies made a mistake, he would be killed.  Head drops!

    Soon, three Huns envoys lined up in a row and strode in from Sima Gate. The eyes of the civil and military officials were immediately attracted. Even the little emperor upstairs stared with wide eyes, and then there was a burst of excitement.  The surprised sound of sucking in the air-conditioning~~

    "Wow~~ah!~Hiss!~~Oh my god"

    Some people's eyes were bright, some were trembling all over, and some people quickly held their chins with their hands for fear of falling and hitting their feet. "Heaven, earth, I have seen strange things, but never such strange things. How did the Huns choose to send their troops?"  The messenger, what about Beauty and the Beast?¡±

    Three Huns envoys, walking in the middle is an old man with messy hair and a gray face. His dry body is wrapped in a dark and shiny sheepskin. He is holding a gift box in his left hand and a walking stick in his right hand.  The decoration is eerie and terrifying. It turns out to be a grinning white skull with black eye sockets looking at the sky. It makes people shudder. It also exudes an unpleasant rotten smell~~~

    With this dignity, no need to dress up, and no need to wait until dark, he is definitely the best choice to scare children. He is definitely a character who will scare everyone and worry about ghosts!

    The one on the left is a young man, more than eight feet tall, with a sturdy back. Although it has just snowed, he is not afraid of the cold at all. He wears a wolfskin hunting jacket slanted, revealing one arm and a large bulge of muscles. In addition, he  His arms are very long, but his nails are extremely short. His mouth, thumb, and index finger are all covered with calluses. At first glance, he looks like a master of knife and bow bending.

    The young man is very handsome, with a face as white as iron, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and gold pendants in his ears. The most peculiar thing is his eyes. The eyes of purebred Huns should be gray-brown, but this young man's eyes are pure black.  The same is true for his hair, and he seems to be of Han descent. He is also holding a large wooden box in his hand, and I don't know what kind of gift is inside!

    "I'm afraid one is fierce, and the other is fierce. If there were only these two messengers, the civil and military officials of the Han court would just blink a few more times and stick out their tongues, and they would never be so surprised that their jaws dropped. The key is the third messenger!

    Dressed in a pure white prairie rider outfit, he is tall, with a soft leopard skin belt tied around his slim waist, deerskin pointed boots on his feet, and a white fox fur cloak. Judging from his age, he is only eighteen or nineteen.  In terms of appearance and style, she is far better than ordinary women!

    Looking at her face again, she has bright eyes and white teeth, a tall nose, and her little face is rosy, pink and cute. If it weren't for the long, flaxen hair, she would definitely be regarded as an official lady of the Han family. Who would have thought that,  There are also such stunning figures among the Huns!

    The woman looked a little excited. As soon as she entered the Sima Gate, she started to look around. When she saw the line of officials, her eyes lit up and she looked over one by one, as if she was looking for something!

    "Born by the heaven and the earth, placed by the sun and the moon - the order of the supreme Great Chanyu, the Huns envoys Kuo Kuo Chu, Wu Wei, and Zhao Yanran came to ask if the emperor of the Han Dynasty is well!" The three envoys came to Wufeng Tower.  He came down and bowed slightly to the little emperor above, proudly not kneeling!

    "Wow!" The ministers roared!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
