"Zhelan Guda, you actually dare to draw your saber and commit murder in front of the chief. Are you trying to rebel?”
Little did he know that Huyan Na had been waiting for this moment. His words caused Zhelan Guda's expression to change drastically.
Compared to those rough and crude grassland men, Huyan Nake, who was deeply influenced by Han culture, was an expert at playing tricks.
"Presumptuous, put away your saber!”
Seeing this, King Zhelan reprimanded his son while asking for forgiveness.
If it wasn't for the fact that the Zhelan Tribe had always been loyal to the Xiongnu royal court, and that they weren't weak…
Junchen Chanyu didn't mind using Zhelan Guda's head to warn the others.
"Tell me, give me a reason not to kill you!”
Seeing that the Chief Chanyu's expression had already darkened, Huyan Na did not dare to keep him in suspense even though he still felt a little regretful.
He was mainly afraid that he would go overboard. If he was beheaded before he could even finish speaking, that would be too unjust.
Therefore, he briefly explained the process of his journey to the south.
It was true that he went south to the Han Dynasty and proposed a marriage alliance. It was true that he flaunted his power in front of the Han Dynasty monarch and minister. It was true that he sent warriors to compete with the Han Dynasty prince. It was also true that he lost in the end.
Of course, in his description, all of this was his brilliant plan and arrangement.
"Are you saying that you designed a competition between the princes of the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu warriors? Whichever country loses will marry the princess?”
After hearing these words, Junchen Chanyu and the nobles of the royal court all revealed an incredulous expression.
During the reign of Maodun Chanyu and Laoshang Chanyu, they had also thought of sending princesses to marry the emperor or prince of the Han Dynasty to achieve the goal of influencing or controlling the state affairs of the Han Dynasty.
However, those stubborn Han people would rather marry off the princess and give away more wine and wealth than the pearls of the grasslands.
This action greatly hurt the pride of many Xiongnu nobles. It was hard to say whether this was a factor in the large-scale invasion of the Xiongnu south.
After receiving an affirmative answer, Great Danghu Xu Bu Zuo couldn't help but exclaim,""Heavens, could it be that the Han Emperor has changed?”
In Xiongnu, there were Left and Right Xianwang, Left and Right Guli Wang, Left and Right General, Left and Right Duwei, Left and Right Danghu, Left and Right Gudu Marquis, etc.
The Xiongnu people usually referred to the " virtuous " as " Tu Qi," so they often made the crown prince the Left Tuqi King.
From the Left and Right Xian Kings down to the Gudu Marquis, the higher ranked had tens of thousands of cavalry, while the lower ranked had thousands of cavalry.
They formed the core power of the Xiongnu Royal Court.
Great Danghu Xubo was definitely one of the most powerful people in the Xiongnu Empire.
At the very least, the White Sheep Tribe that Huyan Nake was in could not afford to offend such a big shot.
Therefore, he was very obedient.
"With the blessing of the great Longevity Heaven and the wise guidance of the Great Chief, I came up with a small plan. I didn't expect the Han people to really fall for it!”
At this moment, not only did Hu Yanna not dare to claim credit, he even wanted to play down his own role.
Otherwise, it would only cause the displeasure of many nobles present.
"That's great. We can finally plant a nail in the Han Dynasty's royal family!”
"Are there any suitable candidates from the Ruanchong Clan? If not, we can only choose from the Huyan Clan, Lan Clan, and Xubu Clan!”
"How much dowry should we prepare? We have to find a few scholars from the Han Dynasty and ask them. We can't lose the face of our Great Xiongnu!”
Seeing so many nobles happily discussing matters related to the marriage of the princess, Zhelan Guda felt very uncomfortable.
He had thought that he had caught the other party's little pigtail, but he had been tricked quite badly.
If it wasn't for King Zhelan, he would have been in deep trouble.
If he had known this would happen, he would have taken the initiative to take this job.
Wait, there seemed to be a huge loophole.
"Huyan Na Ke, you haven't told me who the Han who is going to marry my Xiongnu princess is, right?”
The more Zhelan Guda spoke, the more spirited he became. He could vaguely guess the truth of the matter.
"Or perhaps you messed up your job, so you want to use a random Han to pay for it?”
Upon hearing his words, the eyes of some of the nobles around him suddenly shot out ferocious gazes.
Sensing the change in his surroundings, not only was Hu Yanna not afraid, he even began to laugh loudly.
"I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. The Han Dynasty's marriage partner with our country is the current dynasty's little prince, Liu Sheng.”
Different from the Han Dynasty's rule of choosing the eldest son, the customs of the grassland tribes were more inclined to support the youngest son.
Therefore, after hearing Liu Sheng's identity, many people's eyes lit up.
" Moreover, this little prince has extraordinary martial strength. His archery skills have even surpassed Zha Mantou's…"
Before Huyan Nake could finish his words, he was rudely interrupted by Zhelan Guda.
"Impossible. That prince of the Han Dynasty isn't even ten years old. How could he be a match for the Condor Shooter Zha Mannequin?“
"That's because you're ignorant!"
Hu Yanna did not bother to argue with the other party and directly let the person involved walk out.
As a famous condor shooter on the grasslands, there were many people who knew Zha Mantou.
Before this, Junchen Chanyu had not expressed any opinions. Now that he saw Zha Mantou, he asked in a deep voice,
"The ninth prince of the Han Dynasty wants to marry my Xiongnu princess?”
"Yes, Chief Chanyu!"
"The prince's archery skills are above yours?”
"Yes, sir!"
Upon seeing this, Huyan Na Ke finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Finally, nothing went wrong.
Those who were familiar with the mannequin knew that he was a person who never lied.
Since he had said so, the matter was most likely conclusive.
"Huyan brat, well done!”
At this moment, a hint of admiration appeared on Junchen Chanyu's face.
This was something that even Mao Dun and Old Shang Chanyu couldn't do.
It had to be done here.
Wouldn't that prove how outstanding he was?
Everyone knew how wise and powerful Maodun Chanyu and Laoshang Chanyu were.
Under their leadership, the Xiongnu had defeated almost all of their opponents except for the Great Han.
This was the fortune of the Xiongnu, but the misfortune of the military minister Chanyu.
Unless he could conquer the burly man, he would forever live in the shadows of the two of them.
However, this was destined to be an impossible task.
The Han and Xiongnu had fought countless times in the past few decades, and both sides knew each other's strength.
Even Mao Dun and Old Shang Chanyu couldn't do it, but Junchen Chanyu didn't think he had the ability.
Therefore, he placed great importance on this marriage alliance.
If he could make the prince with the bloodline of the Ruanchou family become the emperor of the Han Dynasty.
Then, even if he met the two former kings in the future, he would have the right to boast.
"The standards of this marriage alliance must be high. We must not lose the face of our Great Xiongnu!”
the military minister ordered.
