At the same time.
Yanmen Pass.
The Governor of Yanmen Pass was talking to Li Guang.
The pressure of the Xiongnu army of hundreds of thousands could be imagined, but the small-scale wars between the Han and Xiongnu had never stopped.
Even if the Han and Xiongnu had a marriage alliance, it would not stop.
Therefore, it was almost common for the Han people at the border to see the Xiongnu going south.
However, this year was different. In the past, the Xiongnu would rob and satisfy themselves at this time. They would return to the grasslands early and spend the winter with their people and livestock.
But this year, all the tribes of the Xiongnu were empty-handed. If they went through the winter like this, a large number of people and animals would die.
Therefore, the war between the Han and Xiongnu was inevitable!
However, those powerful tribes were not too worried because they had their own way of survival.
They were the merchants of the Han Dynasty.
In the Xiongnu, merchants from the Han Dynasty who came to do business were generally strictly forbidden from killing.
If no merchants came, they could only risk their lives to rob.
It was obviously very risky to rob a big man who was getting stronger.
It was better to exchange the warhorses for daily necessities.
This was the horse market.
The horse market had been around since the Han Gaozu era. It was intermittent, but it had never been interrupted for a long time.
After all, to the Xiongnu people, most of the things in the Central Plains were not something they could make.
When the relationship between the two sides was tense, the horse market was closed, and there was a huge amount of smuggling...
For Han Dynasty merchants, they could earn a lot by going to the Xiongnu once a year.
In the prefect's manor, a cold smile was written all over his face.
"The large merchant group has set off, and all the Xiongnu scouts inside have been killed. What I want to do this time will make the Xiongnu people remember this winter!”
"General Li, we can't let down His Majesty's great trust!”
Hearing this, Li Guang cupped his hands." Don't worry, Governor Zhi. I've already made the arrangements. I'll follow your plan. I won't hold you back…"
Xu Du nodded and looked in the direction of the frontier, his eyes emitting a vicious light.

Weiyang Palace.
After Liu Che finished reading the memorial, he nodded in satisfaction and felt refreshed.
At Yanmen Pass, he could rest assured.
Tomorrow, Liu Che was going to completely reorganize the court!
To resist foreign aggression, we must first stabilize the country!
Liu Che returned to Ganquan Palace. The night was long and the moonlight was seductive.
Liu Che suddenly thought of the female official Wang Hongwei.
Compared with those beautiful girls who had just entered the palace, Liu Che admired Wang Hongwei more.
More importantly, she knew how to serve the Emperor.
Wang Hongwei was a female official, not a beauty!
She climbed onto the dragon bed as a female official, and it was inevitable that she would bear the infamy of confusing the king…
"Your Majesty, the imperial kitchen has sent Tiger's Heart Soup…"
The eunuch's voice rang out.
"Bring it up."
Liu Che said casually. He was ready to rest.
However, when Liu Che raised his head, he was surprised to find that the person holding the Tiger Heart Soup was Wang Hongwei.
Wasn't this too much of a coincidence?
At the foot of the city, Merlin could see her with a glance.
Now that she had brought the tiger's heart soup, it was as if everything had been planned in advance.
"Your Majesty, I will serve you."
Wang Hongwei squatted beside Liu Che and gently placed the Tiger Heart Soup in front of him.
He scooped up a spoonful of tiger heart soup and fed it to Liu Che.
Wang Hongwei's muslin robe fell off his shoulders, revealing his collarbone…
Wang Hongwei's charming eyes were tender…
Liu Che immediately understood.
Everything Wang Hongwei did had a strong sense of utility.
She…wanted to climb onto the dragon bed!
……
Wang Hongwei, who had a beautiful face, leaned over Liu Che and said,"
"Your Majesty, let me serve you to bed…"
Wang Hongwei placed the Tiger's Heart Soup on the table and gently laid on Liu Che's body.
"Zhen doesn't like scheming women.”
As Liu Che's voice fell, Wang Hong unwillingly reached out and hugged Liu Che,""Isn't ChenQie beautiful? Your Majesty…"
" I don't deny that you're a peerless beauty, but I don't like women who are too materialistic…"
Liu Che sat upright and stared at Wang Hongwei.
Wang Hongwei saw determination in Liu Che's eyes.
She realized that this young emperor wasn't someone who would fall for beauty easily!
The current emperor was a true emperor!
"I will take my leave, but I will come back…"
Wang Hongwei withdrew from Ganquan Palace, although she failed again.
However, she was pleasantly surprised.
Because she realized that His Majesty did not chase her away.
This meant that Tian Zi didn't hate her and she still had a chance!
In order to become a concubine, she, Wang Hongwei, was willing to pay any price!
"Your Majesty, I will definitely become your concubine…" Wang Hongwei stepped out of the Palace of Sweet Spring.
After Wang Hongwei left, Liu Che began to consider the commander of the Great Han Cavalry.
This time, Liu Che had a good sleep!
