There was a dagger next to the body of King Angui of Loulan. The iron blade shone with cold light, and the handle decorated with Khotan jade was inlaid with gold, which was very beautiful.

This was originally a sabre that An Gui enjoyed, it was flashy, but today, it finally came in handy.

Every Loulan official who was held hostage must, under the urging of Ren Hong and others, pick it up, pierce it into An Gui's body, and then pass it to the next person like a relay race.

Fu Jiezi called this "killing his corpse" because An Gui was too serious, but it was just that killing it was too simple.

In fact, this was just a suggestion by Ren Hong to pull the officials and nobles of Loulan into the water and force them to become a means of co-conspiracy.

It is easy to kill An Gui, but it is difficult to get the envoys to escape and protect Loulan. Next, the cooperation of these nobles in Loulan is needed.

Yi Xianghan, who had long lost his way out, was the most active. He was the first to step forward and stabbed An Gui on each of his limbs. While stabbing, he also criticized An Gui's crimes and said that even without the Han envoy, the Loulan people should have eliminated this tyrant long ago.

Then there were left and right Qiqu, and the right Qiqu was completely frightened. He held the dagger in both hands and trembled. After a long time, he didn't even poke An Gui's clothes.

Zuo Qie Qu Libeiye was different. The moment he took the dagger, he felt very reluctant to see An Gui's miserable appearance, and he actually had the idea of ​​avenging the king!

But when he raised his eyes, he saw Fu Jiezi standing on the side with a bloody flag standing on the side, like a god of killing, and immediately gave up the idea, and said sorry inwardly, and stabbed An Gui with his eyes closed.

After everyone was bleeding, Fu Jiezi smiled: "Youqiu, go out and tell the Loulan people that the evil ones have been killed and the rest are not guilty. The officials have gold and silk given by the emperor, and all the Loulan people will no longer have to pay tribute to the Huns in the future."

Youqiu Yingnuo, but when he left, he slipped back in fear and said:

"The 阿克 is here, and with her Hun Guards, they are reorganizing the soldiers, summoning all the Loulan people to surround them, and shouting that they will kill the Han envoys and avenge An Gui!"

"what to do?"

The first thing to panic was the Loulan officials. They knew that the Yan family was cruel and would definitely not let them go if they knew that they were involved in the killing of Angui's body.

"What a panic!"

Ren Hong scolded the Loulan officials for their anxiety and encouraged them to say:

"The reason why the Yan family has a noble status is because she is the wife of King Loulan. Now An Gui has died of sin. She is no longer the queen of Loulan. She is just a widow of sinners and an alien Hun girl who blackmails Loulan for King Rizhu, and is the enemy of the Loulan people."

“Go out.”

Fu Jiezi also knocked on the flag and drove everyone away. They had to go out again under the pressure of swords behind their backs.

Ren Hong followed closely and looked around after going out. Good guys, all of them were human.

He saw that the entire male men in Loulan City rushed over after hearing the news, including warriors and civilians, and as many as a thousand.

They either climb on the city wall or stand around the square, surrounding the hall. If a conflict breaks out, they may drown the envoys with one spit.

The nobles of Loulan, who were held hostage, declared An Gui to the Loulan people with a trembling voice, and at the same time loudly called on their tribe members to persuade others to see the situation clearly and not take action.

Later, Fu Jiezi also came out. He rejected the shield that Han Gandang and others supported him, and raised An Gui's head high in his hand.

Thousands of pairs of blue, brown or black eyes all looked at An Gui's head, as if they were discussing whether this was their king.

Fu Jiezi coldly glanced at the Loulan people who surrounded the hall and said loudly:

"An Gui is guilty of Han, and the emperor sent me to kill him, and he also appointed the second son of the former king, Wei Tuqi, to succeed him. Now An Gui is dead, and the Han soldiers are coming, so do not dare to move, and if they move, they will destroy the country and the clan will be destroyed!"

Lu Jiushe and two translators translated loudly. For a moment, more than a thousand Loulan people came forward, and they didn't even dare to shoot an arrow.

The Loulan Yan family had just arrived. She was shocked to hear the news of her husband's death, but she was not sad and heartless. Instead, she was full of hatred and whipped the warrior on the city wall with a whip:

"Arrow, archery, kill all the people who killed the king, and then chop them up and scatter them into the fields!"

But the warriors would rather be beaten by her than attack the Han envoy. They were so angry that the Shishi went up to the city wall and wanted to do it themselves.

But before the Yan family could grab the bow, the Loulan man holding the bow suddenly broke out and kicked her off the city wall.

Because compared to the powerless intimidation of the Han envoy, the Han envoy's shouting was real money:

"If anyone can capture the son of Yan and An Gui, he will be rewarded with five kilograms of gold and ten pieces of silk!"

Hearing this, all the Loulan warriors on the city wall pointed their bows and arrows at the horrified round face of Yan without hesitation!

...

The sage was still dead, and she was pointed at by hundreds of bows. I don’t know which of the Loulan people slipped and led her to an arrow.

But what really caused her death was the indignation of the Loulan people.

They had been holding back their resentment for several years and were annoyed by the extortion of the Huns every year. After An Gui's death, they were like the flood that surged out after the dam collapsed, and all of them vented on the Yan family. Nearly a thousand people rushed over and beat her and several Huns to death - of course, it might also be to steal the gold jewelry on her body.

From the envoys to the officials of Loulan, they all looked at the scene in surprise. The situation had lost control, and cried and shouted constantly. Some people took the opportunity to rob and steal.

Fortunately, the crisis was quickly resolved. When the envoys killed King Loulan in the city, Xi Chongguo successfully completed the mission, "protected" the water priest, and led Yi Xiangna more than a hundred subordinates into the city, controlling the situation.

The noble officials of Loulan, who had already accepted the sacrificial letter, quickly summoned the tribe members and slaves again, dispersed the chaotic crowd, and asked them to return home and stay at home and not come out.

The bodies of An Gui and Yan were placed in the square, and the respected water priest was "invited" to the city. After pondering for a long time, he also expressed his opinion.

"The water priest said that Angui and the sage will not be buried in the Sun Cemetery of the Loulan royal family."

Yi Xianghan translated: "But it will be presented to the virtuous river god!"

The envoys looked at each other in all directions, and Ren Hong was quite satisfied with the result, but he felt a little sarcastic.

However, the nobles of Loulan, the officials completely forgot the bloody storm that had just passed, and smiled and celebrated each other:

"O omnipotent, virtuous and wise high priest."

"It seems that the reason why the river water has become smaller over the years has finally been found!"

...

The next morning, a new festival was held at the altar outside the city.

But this time, the one who was lying in the boat was no longer a humble slave, but was standing in the seven-circle wooden stakes of the altar yesterday, dressed in luxuriously and supremely Loulan King and the King of Yan.

An Gui's headless body was poked many holes by the surrendered nobleman Loulan, but none of them were as big as the hole in his chest that was pierced by Fu Jiezi.

The Yan family was even more miserable. She was beaten to death by the collective atrocities of the Loulan people, and was beaten beyond recognition. The golden leaves and other objects decorated on her body yesterday disappeared.

There were still more than a thousand Loulan people present today, all of whom were dressed in grand dresses and a solemn and kind expression, no longer as crazy as yesterday.

Leading by the water priest and Yi Xianghan, who was appointed as the lord of Loulan by Fu Jiezi, they sang songs praising the wise and good river gods towards the Peacock River, with an extremely pious expression.

"The virtuous and good river god, you give Loulan life."

"And Loulan will give you life!"

When the same song was heard, Ren Hong only felt a chill that was even worse than yesterday.

Yes, life and death, reincarnation continues. Yesterday was the death of slaves, and today was the death of both kings and queens. In this oasis in the desert, life and death are so impermanent. You have to get used to their capriciousness.

Ren Hong thought that today the people of Loulan are afraid of the strength of the Han Dynasty and can turn against each other so much that they regard their king as a sacrifice.

What if the Huns are coming to the city tomorrow? They will be the ones who are cruelly killed and sacrificed to the virtuous river gods?

As the Loulan warrior pushed the wooden boat into the distance, a raging fire broke out, proclaiming the history of Loulan and turning the pages.

But water is always water, but the ship on the water may be overturned at any time and replaced with a new one.

"We are the new ship, and under our feet is the seemingly weak but volatile water!"

...

"You're thinking right."

Fu Jiezi did not go out of the city to see the festival. After listening to Ren Hong's description, he put down the letter he had been writing with his pen and said:

"Ten people including Wu Zongnian and Xi Chongguo took the head of Loulan King Angui last night to go to Dunhuang and ask the Yumen Commander to send troops to guard Loulan."

"But even if the Han army had already camped in Yushuquan in advance, it would take at least one month before they could reach Loulan City. It would be difficult to cross natural dangers such as Longcheng, Sanlongsha, and Bailongdui."

Fu Jiezi stood up and looked north: "And the Huns only need to leave the land of King Rizhu's camp after learning about the Loulan Incident, and the cavalry went along the south of Henan."

Yesterday's action was perfect, but there was still a little regret, that is, Prince Loulan, under the arrangement of the Yan family, was taken away by several Hun women.

Fu Jiezi sent someone to chase him but failed to catch up. The Hun women were skilled in riding, as if they were on horses, and could even turn around and shoot the horses that injured two officials.

They could only watch them fleeing north, which would probably allow King Rizhu to learn about Loulan in advance.

"Don't doubt, the Huguan must have come faster than the Han army!"

Fu Jiezi looked at Ren Hong, Zheng Ji, and more than 20 people behind them, and said with a smile:

"You were very lazy last night. Many officials and soldiers went to hook up with Loulan women and did not return all night. Do you think it was too easy to assassinate the Loulan King?"

Sun Shiwan and Han Dandan scratched their faces embarrassedly. Mr. Fu said it was them. Ren Hong, who had always kept Hu's wife talking, took the initiative to ask for the night last night and stayed at the door of the hall that was requisitioned by the envoy.

"No."

Fu Jiezi suddenly became serious, completely different from the ease and casualness before the assassination.

"It's easy to start and then difficult to defend Loulan, which is much more troublesome than killing An Gui. For us, the next month will be the real life and death at the moment!"
