"Your Majesty, my concubine has been your wife for so many years. If I don't even have this bit of insight, then I will do it for nothing. Both Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao are originally from Chu State, and Mi Bazi is from Chu State. The concubine thought that she would think of Mi Bazi when she saw Xiao Qiao, so let's go to Chuxiu Palace to see tonight!"

After all, she is his first wife, and she still knows herself very well at critical moments.

"Okay! Now that you've said that, I'm going to see the imperial concubine tonight."

The next day was another early morning day, but there were still six days before the departure of the mission, and Zhang Qian also began to make preparations.

"How are you preparing? Bring gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, and porcelain. These are the treasures of the Tianhua Empire!"

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that these things have been prepared. The only thing to do now is to pack the boxes, as well as the horse team and various logistical support. This time I will go out this time at least a month or at most a few years. , so no matter what, dry food should be prepared.”

"How many years?"

Zhao Lie was a little surprised, why there are several years of talk.

"Yes, in fact, according to normal walking, we must be able to return within a month, but things outside the empire are really unpredictable. If the Huns find us and detain us, even if we have another It may not be able to defeat the cavalry of the Huns."

Zhao Lie was speechless after speaking like this.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, what I said just now is just in case, and I hope that such an important responsibility of Your Majesty will be entrusted to us."

"It was originally yours. If you really encounter the Huns army, there is nothing you can do, so you still have to be mentally prepared."

After the court was over, Zhao Lie still called Zhang Qian to his bedroom.

"Zhang Qian, is what you just said true?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, no one in the Tianhua Empire dares to do anything to us, but outside of the Tianhua Empire, the Huns are the strongest. If they know that our mission has set off in a mighty way, they will definitely think about it." Do everything possible to intercept, after all, so much gold, silver and jewels, once they fall into the hands of the Huns, it will be a fortune."

"In that case, how do you plan to be foolproof?"

"Your Majesty, in fact, there is no way to make this matter foolproof. There are too many unpredictable things outside. We can only control the size of the entire team, and we must avoid going out with great fanfare as much as possible!"

Such an answer made Zhao Lie fall into deep thought.

"If it really doesn't work, I'll just drive the army and follow behind, and use the tactic of surprise soldiers. You also know that this is the old tactic of the Tianhua Empire."

"Absolutely not! Your Majesty, the countries in the Western Regions are observing whether the Tianhua Empire is friendly or chooses to surrender to the Huns. They have not yet made a decision. If the Tianhua Empire and the Huns fight over there, they will definitely It will have a greater impact on them, so that it may not be so easy to peacefully evolve."

"I'm worried about your danger. It's fine if you don't have those belongings. If you are really in danger, you really can't explain it to the people of the country!"

"Your Majesty, I do not deny that many people came here for fame and wealth, but these people did so for some reason. Now because of Your Majesty, everyone has already achieved fame, so they will never worry about the future when they go out. This is an adventure in itself!"

Zhang Qian saw that such an emperor was a little worried. He knew that the most important thing for an emperor must be the safety of these envoys.

"It's too dangerous for you to do this, and if you don't let the army be sent, that's risking your life, isn't it?"

"If you want to say that you risk your life, ministers, etc., they are not No. 1. Back then, Su Qin Ruoqi tried to find a way to separate the relationship between King Qi and Tian Wen, and only then did the final five kingdoms attack Qi. This time it is the same Don't worry about the truth, there are talented people from generation to generation, each leading the way for hundreds of years. As long as the politics of the Tianhua Empire is as clear as it is now, then there will be more talents. case, but this is only the worst case!"

After Zhao Lie heard this, he still couldn't bear it. After all, this kind of thing was really not a joke. The empire allowed sacrifices, but unnecessary sacrifices were not allowed.

"Your Majesty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the empire! This kind of thing is to go on and on, and there is no shortcut to find. If you want to arrange everything, it is best to be foolproof. It is impossible in itself, so you make up your mind to let let's go!"

Looking at Zhang Qian's firm expression in front of him, Zhao Lie finally made up his mind.

"Since you've talked about this, if I don't let you go, I can't justify it, so I promise you. In the past few days, you should also think about how to do it. You must ensure concealment and show it. The strength of the empire."

The time for departure finally arrived. According to Zhao Lie's request, the family members of each envoy appeared in the palace. This was the last farewell.

"Heroes, you are about to set off. I have given you everything I should have given. I will not say those bold words. I just hope that you can have a safe journey. Go and return quickly, and you can complete your mission."

The emperor's speech was very short, but he put all his hopes in it, and the venue at this moment became a parting venue.

"Father, don't worry, there will be absolutely no problem!"

Xu Maogong looked at his parents who were already weeping, and was a little speechless.

"Son, once you leave, we won't see you."

"You are such a crow's mouth. You said you would not see me before you set off. Are you such a father?"

"That's right, son is just going to be a messenger, so many messy things?"

On the other hand, it is also a different farewell.

"My husband is about to go on a long journey, and I don't know how to say a thousand words. I just hope that I can leave early and return early. There are still many things that need you at home, so we are waiting for your triumphant return."

Xiao Qiao's words are still so gentle, this feeling really makes everyone feel very comfortable.

"Ma'am, please don't worry, this time may be a surprise visit. I believe that I will return with a rewarding experience. It is said that there are very strange aromatherapy in the Western Regions. If Madam likes it, I will bring you some back!"

In the eyes of others, I am the most peaceful couple, but it can be seen that Zhou Yu is full of confidence.

Xue Rengui's family also bid farewell here.

"Be careful on the road. Our son hasn't been named yet. Give him one before you leave."

Seeing his youngest son's innocent face, Xue Rengui smiled.

"Let's call him Xue Dingshan!"
