The next day.
In the imperial court.
Liu Che sat on the throne, civil and military officials on both sides.
A beardless middle-aged man dressed in Xiongnu clothing stood in the court.
This person was the number one traitor, Zhong Xingyue.
During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, the strength of the Han Dynasty declined and was unable to resist the Xiongnu, so they could only marry.
He chose a girl from the Liu Clan to be the princess and married her off to the old Chanyu of the Xiongnu.
Before they set off, the eunuch Zhong Xingyue refused to go to the Xiongnu.
He said fiercely to the official,"
"If I have to go, I will definitely be enemies with the Great Han and help the Xiongnu attack the Great Han.”
The officials of the marriage alliance did not take his words seriously at all. A eunuch did not want to live in the grasslands, so he only said a few harsh words.
After following the marriage team to the Xiongnu, Zhong Xingyue did what he said.
The first thing he did was to surrender to Old Shang Chanyu, and then he assigned the defense of the Han Empire's border to the Xiongnu.
Therefore, he was the first traitor of the Han Dynasty and also the most destructive traitor.
From Emperor Wen of Han to Emperor Jing of Han, Zhong Xingyue had instigated attacks on the Han border no less than fifteen times.
Later, after Old Shang Chanyu died, the military minister Chanyu who took over was even more obedient to him and conferred him the title of Grand Imperial Advisor of the Xiongnu.
This time, it was Zhong Xingyue's own request that the military minister Chanyu sent him to Chang 'an. In his opinion, this was a return to his hometown in glory...
In the main hall.
Zhong Xingyue only performed the Xiongnu salute to Liu Che, who was sitting on the throne, which immediately aroused the anger of all the civil and military officials in the court!
Liu Che, who was sitting on the throne, signaled the officials to be quiet with his eyes. Then, he said to Zhong Xingyue,
"You are the so-called Grand Tutor of the Xiongnu, Zhong Xingyue?”
Zhong Xingyue sneered and glanced at the court officials. He said sarcastically,"That's right."
Liu Che, who studied the history of the Han Dynasty before he transmigrated, naturally knew about Zhong Xingyue. He stared at Zhong Xingyue and said,
"In the past thirty-six years, because of your betrayal, many families of the Great Han Dynasty were destroyed. I have never seen such a shameless and evil person!”
Zhong Xingyue was shocked when he heard this, but he quickly calmed down and continued to say sarcastically,
"Great Han Emperor, I have been a Xiongnu for thirty-six years.”
Liu Che slowly stood up from his throne, waved his dragon robe, and said in a deep voice,"
"Zhong Xingyue, I have no objections to you saying that you are a Xiongnu because you are not worthy of being a citizen of the Great Han! It would be a national shame if the Great Han Dynasty had someone like you who forgot your roots.”
Forgetting his roots…
When Zhong Xingyue heard this, the anger in his eyes could no longer be concealed.
Rootless, this was the pain of his life. It could be said that this was the reason why he wanted to take revenge on the burly man.
He clutched his clothes tightly with both hands.
"The Emperor of the Great Han Dynasty doesn't need to say much. This time, I'm here to ask for food. The quantity must be sufficient and the quality must be good."
"If you don't give it to me, the one million Xiongnu cavalrymen will charge into the main hall!”
Zhong Xingyue suppressed his anger. He knew that the powerful Xiongnu was standing behind him.
The little emperor of the Han Dynasty in front of him would not do anything to him, much less kill him.
He already knew that the young emperor in front of him was extraordinary. He had actually wiped out the 200,000-strong army of the Xiongnu's Left Virtuous Prince in one go!
This was the first time since the founding of the Han Dynasty.
Even though the Xiongnu's Prince Zuoxian had underestimated the enemy, the Great Han Empire had revealed its fangs for the first time.
To wipe out 200,000 Xiongnu troops in one go was something that was absolutely unimaginable in the past!
"If the Xiongnu cavalry could reach Chang 'an so easily, you wouldn't have come here. I have millions of troops waiting for me.”
"I don't have the strength to take the initiative to destroy the Xiongnu, but I am still very confident in defending the Great Han Empire!”
Liu Che's expression changed as he shouted,"
"Where are the warriors outside the hall?"
"Yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen armored soldiers rushed in from outside the hall.
"What's wrong? Are you going to kill me?" Zhong Xingyue was calm, but his eyes could no longer hide the panic in his heart.
At this moment, he felt that his decision to come back was a huge mistake, but it was all too late!
Liu Che sat back on the throne and slowly said,"
"No, wouldn't it be too easy for you to kill you? Men, cut off his tongue and cut off his hands. Let him go back and slowly report today's matter to the Chief!”
Puff!
Zhong Xingyue's throat kept surging, and the sweetness in her mouth immediately spurted out bright red blood...
A few armorers dragged the chief traitor out of the main hall like a dead pig and executed him…
All the officials in the court were proud!
Such a strong-willed emperor was the only one in the Great Han Empire!
Back then, the siege of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty opened the beginning of the marriage.
Until Emperor Hui of Han, Empress Lu, Emperor Wen of Han, and Emperor Jing of Han, none of them dared to make a move against the Xiongnu.
The people of the Great Han Dynasty had long held back their anger at the imperial court's tolerance for decades!
Today, the emperor was decisive and decisive in the throne room. He was domineering and did not pretend to be polite at all.
Send the princess to a marriage alliance?
Food and silk?
Even the ordinary palace maids and eunuchs in the hall knew that this was impossible!
However, was the current emperor really ready for an all-out war with the Xiongnu?
