The Child Emperor

Chapter 107 The Huns

Han Ruzi really wanted to catch Lin Kunshan and ask him to understand, but he might end up being a prisoner of the other party. He has no right to choose, the Guiyihou family is desperate, the daughter Jin Chuiduo's plan is too simple, the father and brother do not agree, especially Guiyihou, still hope to find a safe way to escape.

Prince Du is dead, and they need help even more.

It was almost dawn, and the Jin family hid Chai Yun's body in an empty room. Marquis Guiyi went out to inquire about news. The two sons escorted Zhang Yanghao to find Lin Kunshan, leaving their daughter and maid to guard the other prisoners.

Qilang and the other three were tied with their hands and feet, sitting at the corner of the wall, not daring to say a word, only Han Ruzi was not restrained, sitting on a stool, with a sword-wielding maid behind him, a few steps ahead, Jin Chuan Duo paced back and forth, and every time she turned around, she glanced at Juan Hou.

Han Ruzi finally couldn't bear it any longer and said, "What do you want to say?"

Jin Chuiduo stopped, still holding the longbow in his hand, but did not take the arrow, "Everyone said that you are a faint, not very similar."

"It's all said that you are...not like you." Han Ruzi regretted after saying that. He can't afford to offend this girl who said that she would kill someone.

Sure enough, Jin Chuiduo's face turned cold, and he drew, shot, and shot arrows. His movements were incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, the arrow swept past Han Ruzi's ear and hit the wall behind him. The maid was taken aback, "Miss, your arrows are still as accurate as before."

The three people sitting in the corner were even more frightened and trembling.

Han Ruzi was not afraid, but moved his eyes, "In this way, you will lose an arrow."

"My arrows are enough to kill you five times."

"There are four of us, and you only have fourteen arrows left, not enough to kill five times." Han Ruzi corrected.

Jin Chuiduo looked down at the quiver at her waist, and there were only 14 arrows left. She originally carried 20 arrows, but she had a habit of throwing one arrow when she had something to do. That's how archery is practiced. Yes, some arrows have not been recovered, and the natural number is getting smaller and smaller.

"I didn't leave you here for customs clearance." Jin Chuiduo had to find a way to scare the faint-hearted emperor, "A deposed emperor who was driven down, I know the court will not take you seriously."

"Um."

"I want to dedicate you to the Xiongnu Da Chanyu."

"The abolition of the emperor who didn't take Da Chu seriously, will he be taken seriously when he arrives at the Xiongnu?"

Jin Chuiduo smiled slightly, and she looked even more charming. Anyone who saw this smiling face would be moved, and it was hard to believe that she was a little devil who dared to kill, "You were an abolished emperor in Da Chu, but when you arrive at the Xiongnu, you are Da Chu's. 'Former Emperor', I believe that Da Chanyu definitely wants you, and with the former emperor in hand, when the Huns go south, it will be more justifiable."

Han Ruzi had to admit that the girl had some knowledge, so he said sternly: "You say you are a Xiongnu, but how much do you know about the Xiongnu?"

"Anyway, I know more than you."

"The Huns are now divided into two parts, the east and the west, each of which is independent. Which one do you plan to defect to?"

Jin Chuiduo was silent, and her expression became severe.

Han Ruzi said to himself, "Xidanyu suffered repeated defeats when he was Emperor Wu, and he fled thousands of miles. He didn't dare to go east to the south for more than ten years. It must not be the one you want to defect to. Dongdan surrendered to Da Chu in his early years and used the king of Qi to rebel. At the time, the frontier was in turmoil, but unfortunately King Qi did not fight, and Dong Danyu lost his inner response before he was ready, which made him very embarrassed, so he was stationed in the northern part of the country, and he did not dare to fight against the Great Chu."

Jin Chuiduo still didn't speak.

Han Ruzi could only learn about some important matters of the imperial court through Di Bao. Without Yang Feng's help in interpreting it, he interprets those boring official documents and memorials by his own imagination, and what to say, no matter if it is accurate or not.

"You want to hand me over to Dong Danyu, but there are various indications that Dong Danyu has no ambitions and just wants to take advantage of the opportunity to get some benefits. If there is no accident, he is likely to become a minister to Da Chu again before this fall."

Han Ruzi came to this conclusion completely by himself, and there was no reliable basis, but he said it with great certainty, as if it was the consensus of the ministers in the DPRK and China, "The abolition of the emperor is a hot potato for Dong Danyu, not only will he not appreciate Jin I will be very annoyed at home. If you give me to Dong Danyu, you might as well send yourself there..."

Jin Chuiduo drew the bow extremely fast, and the arrow was on the string in an instant, and said sharply: "What do you mean?"

Han Ruzi raised his hands unconsciously, and then slowly put them down, he was still very afraid that the girl would let go of the arrow, "This is the tradition of the Xiongnu, the famous king usually chooses a daughter to marry Shan Yu as his concubine, and the Jin family first returns. The Xiongnu should abide by the tradition, and Dong Shanyu will also choose a daughter to marry the Marquis Guiyi, although the generation is a bit chaotic, but they do it."

Jin Chuiduo put down the bow and arrow, "How do you know so much about it?"

"It seems from the book, it is recorded in the biography of the Huns in all dynasties, and I don't think it will change now. Dong Danyu is... over sixty years old, right?"

Before Jin Chuiduo said anything, the sword-wielding maid behind Han Ruzi was already anxious, "Miss, you can't marry an old man, your husband should be a young prince, a prince is fine, but unfortunately he was killed. already."

"Don't talk nonsense." Jin Chuiduo blushed, and then said proudly: "I won't marry anyone, I want to lead an army myself. I don't know what traditions the Huns have, but I know that there are female leaders on the grasslands."

"Yes, but they are all Chanyu's wives and concubines. After the old one died, they were reluctant to marry the new one, and occasionally they would get a charter to get an army or a tribe."

Jin Chuiduo was silent again. She hadn't read much, and she only had some beautiful fantasies about the grasslands and the Huns.

After thinking for a while, she finally said, "As you said, it's useless to keep you, just kill you."

"It's useful, how can it be useless?" Han Ruzi hurriedly retorted, for fear that he would be shot one step later, "The usefulness is on that Lin Kunshan."

"He's just a Jianghu warlock..."

"That's not a simple warlock. He can persuade the son of Marquis Piyuan to do things for him, and he wants to provoke the Great Chu and the Huns to go to war and profit from it. There must be the support of powerful forces in the DPRK and China behind Lin Kunshan. Miss Jin might as well think about it. Think, who will this hidden force be?"

Influenced by Yang Feng, Han Ruzi unconsciously gave a question. Jin Chuiduo didn't react for a while, and really thought about it for a while, and then said with uncertainty, "Master Cui Hong?"

"How can you see it?"

"The empress dowager and the emperor don't need to make excuses to fight the Huns. Cui Hong, as the chief Sima of the Southern Army, of course hopes that there will be wars in the frontier... But it's not right, Cui Hong can just kill the prince, why should I put the blame on you?"

"Because Cui Hong's nephew, King Donghai, has a personal feud with me." Han Ruzi said immediately. In fact, he felt that there was a loophole in this answer. There was no need for King Donghai to use such a complicated method to retaliate against him.

Jin Chuiduo didn't hear the flaw, stared at Hou Wan for a while, and then his eyes turned to the three people in the corner, "Is what Lord Huan is telling the truth?"

The two nodded, one shook his head, the one who shook his head immediately became a nod, the one who nodded began to shake his head, and the remaining one did not know what to do.

Jin Chuiduo said angrily, "Are you entertaining me?"

Qilang said boldly: "We... we really don't know anything."

Jin Chuiduo snorted softly and asked Hou Wan, "Okay, even if you're right, what's the use of you?"

"Instead of handing me over to Lin Kunshan, it is better to hand over Lin Kunshan to me. If the Jin family can help me defeat the Cui family's conspiracy, they will be rewarded by the queen mother.

Jin Chuiduo laughed so hard that it took a while to say, "I almost believed you, it turns out that you wanted the Jin family to work for you, you are a deposed emperor, why should we help you? Why did the queen mother reward you? We even killed Chai Yun, how can we turn back?"

Han Ruzi was about to speak, when the sword-wielding maid behind him suddenly sternly said, "I don't know if you live or die, wipe your saliva, and dare to look at the young lady one more time and gouge out your eyes."

It turned out that when Jin Chuiduo was laughing, the three of them were stunned, completely forgetting that they were in a dangerous situation. When the maid said it, they reacted, lowered their heads in a panic, and wiped their mouths on their knees.

Jin Chuiduo resisted his anger and said to the maid, "I'm going to rest for a while, you look at them, don't listen to the nonsense of Huanjun, remember?"

"Remember, miss."

As soon as Jin Chuiduo went out, the maid smiled softly: "Miss must have gone through the book to find out the customs of the Xiongnu. It's all your fault. Miss is slow in reading, and you may not be able to find it all day."

"I'll tell you in which book you can..."

Han Ruzi had a kind heart, but the maid put the sword on his shoulder, "Miss don't let you talk nonsense, you are not allowed to talk nonsense."

"I don't talk nonsense, can I speak normally?"

The maid thought for a while, "Yes."

"You're not a Huns, are you?"

"no."

"Then why do you still go to the grassland?"

The maid turned to Marquis Juan and looked at him, "You really don't give up, you even have to persuade me. Why should I go to the grasslands? The people of Da Chu are not important, I am the maid of Miss."

Han Ruzi had to say more, and the maid pointed at him with her sword, "I'm stupid, but not stupid. You're talking nonsense again, so I'll just slap you with a sword."

Han Ruzi closed his mouth and shook his head, indicating that he would no longer speak.

He had neither power nor access, so he really couldn't think of how he could persuade the Jin family.

In the afternoon, Jin's father and son returned one after another, and Marquis Guiyi was very nervous. "The disappearance of Chai Yun and Marquis Juan has spread. Many people are looking for them. Our family must leave the city as soon as possible."

Han Ruzi thought that Zhang Yanghao could take the opportunity to escape, but he honestly followed him back. There was even a hint of complicity on his face, and he didn't even look at the three companions sitting in the corner. After Hou Guiyi finished speaking, Zhang Yanghao said: "Lin Kunshan invited Guiyihou's family out of the city to meet, and he can escort you to Saibei safely."

Hou Guiyi looked at his two sons, "Have you seen that Jianghu Warlock?"

The two nodded.

"Is it believable?"

The two looked at each other, and the eldest son said, "Lin Kunshan is a great person. There must be a way to send our family away. We believe him."

Marquis Guiyi nodded and pondered, Han Ruzi asked, "Where are we going outside the city?"

"Xiaonanshan Dark Fragrance Garden." Zhang Yanghao had no intention of concealing it.
