Liu Xin was waiting to persuade him. Suddenly, I saw Banto'er shook his hand and said: "Your Majesty has worked hard for the last few days. Please rest early. I'll be here."
Liu Xin felt tired after hearing Ban Thie'er's words. Since leaving the Uzbeli fortress, Liu Xin marched all the way, and last night he chased Murza until late at night. After returning to Beitian city, Liu Xin and Ban Thie'er After a "war", I went to inspect the city defense in the early morning, but I didn’t catch a good rest.
And Liu Xin also felt that in this situation, it was really inappropriate for him to stay here. Liya was not his woman, and he didn’t know how to persuade him. It’s better to let Ban Thieer persuade her, women and women. It may be easier to communicate with each other,
Liu Xin did not sleep in the palace, but returned to the temporary barracks of the Han army. This was not for safety reasons, but to avoid suspicion. This time Liu Xin slept very sweetly, and the thief was safe and sound. He was most worried. The matter has been resolved,
Liu Xin, who had slept for four hours, finally woke up. Sun Ce was already waiting at the door. He followed Liu Xin's order and went all the way south, catching up and destroying the two defeated Guishuang troops. He went straight to the border of Guishuang before turning around, and brought back two prisoners of Guishuang, both senior generals in Guishuang’s army.
When Liu Xin heard this, he said excitedly: "Hurry up, bring them up."
In a short while, two unkempt and embarrassed Guishuang people were dragged into the big tent. They were the generals and deputy leaders who sent troops to Kangju this time. After defeating the city of Beitian, they each led a remnant army and wanted to return to the country. He didn’t want to but was overtaken by Sun Ce. All his soldiers were slaughtered to death. The only ones who knew they were unusual because of their gorgeous clothes were caught by Sun Ce.
Liu Xin did not ask the names of these two people, waved his big hand very domineeringly, and shouted in a deep voice: "I will spare you for the time being. After I go back, I will tell you the king of sex and tell him to fight Kangju less, otherwise I will definitely kiss him. Lead the army and step down Guishuang. From today, Guishuang’s caravan will not be allowed to engage in trade with the big man within three months. Remember, this is just a small punishment. If he is obsessed with it, hum..."
The two Guishuang generals escaped their lives by chance. How could they dare to argue with Liu Xin, so they had no choice but to hold their heads when they left the tent, and fled south without touching their feet.
Sun Ce was puzzled: "Father, did you just let them go like this,"
"If you don't let them go, do you want to keep them for dinner?" Liu Xin waved his hand and said, "After this battle, the Guishuang people will not dare to come forward within three or five months."
Sun Ce frowned and said: "The Guishuang people broke into the Kangju territory with their troops, and the picture will definitely not be the thing that Murza promised. His hegemony is already clear. My child is worried that after my army returns to Chang'an, They will make a comeback again,"
"Do you know why I had to break their three-month trade route," Liu Xin continued without waiting for Sun Ce to answer, "because fighting is a very expensive thing, and breaking the trade route will break Guishuang. Fortune, no money, what they use to arm the army, what they use to treat the soldiers who died in battle, continue to fight, they will be militant, and the king of sex may not be able to sit in jail anymore."
I don’t know Chai Migui if I’m not in charge. Sun Ce, who has never managed internal affairs, naturally couldn’t understand the truth. Liu Xin didn’t have time to explain to him slowly. He waved his hand and said, “Early tomorrow morning, you will return with me. In Chang'an, we will leave 10,000 cavalry soldiers to help the Queen Dowager Kang Ju guard against Guishuang and Murza’s remaining party. In addition, we have sent a flying horse to Chang'an and transferred 30,000 soldiers to come."
Sun Ce was shocked and said: "Why, the father wants to send soldiers to them,"
"Of course, we can't give them the armors used by the Han army, but the old-style armors seized in successive battles are countless. Destroying them is laborious and laborious. It's better to use them for personal affection," Liu Xin stood up. , Patted Sun Ce on the shoulder, and said, "You have worked hard these past few days. Rest early. I will go to the palace and have a look."
In the palace, I don’t know what Ban Thiauer said to Liya. Liya was not as excited as the morning, but she was a little embarrassed when she saw Liu Xin.
Liu Xin saw that Liya was in a good mood, so he relaxed and said to them: "I will return to Chang'an tomorrow."
Ban Too'er said in surprise: "So fast, won't your Majesty stay here for a few more days,"
Liu Xin shook his head and said, "I have been very reckless in this personal expedition. There are still many things waiting for me to deal with in Chang'an. I can't stay for long."
Ban Tooer already knew that a great war was going on in the Central Plains, and Liu Xin had not received a war report from Chang'an for three consecutive days. She understood Liu Xin's feelings very well and said in deep thought, "A few of them are injured. Do you want to go with you too?"
Liu Xin thought for a while, and said, "Since their injuries are still not clear, it is better to stay in Beitian City to recover from their injuries, and I will send someone to pick them up when the injuries are over."
Liya herself didn't seem to want to leave very much, she nodded silently and agreed to Liu Xin's arrangement, but sisters Kleia suddenly stood up and said together: "Master, we are not in the way, we will go with you."
The physique of the gladiators is different from that of ordinary people. The injuries they suffered are much heavier than Liya, but now they have recovered seven or eight points. Not to mention letting them go on horseback, or letting them go into battle to kill the enemy.
Suddenly, Liu Xin had an idea, and said: "Both of your sisters are from Daqin, and Queen Mother Kangju’s mother is also from Daqin. In my opinion, you will follow the Queen Mother from now on to protect the safety of the Queen Mother."
Sister Kleia glanced at each other, fell to her knees, and repeatedly said: "Master, don't drive us away,"
"I am not driving you away, but looking for a good home for you." Seeing sister Kleia still staying on the ground and refusing to get up, Liu Xin glared and said, "Why, you don't even say what my master said. Listened,"
Sisters Kleia got up helplessly. Although Liu Xin had been exempted from their status as gladiators, they still regarded themselves as Liu Xin's slaves, and slaves had no freedom and no right to choose. The master was originally You can send them away like goods,
Seeing Sister Kleia’s reluctance, Ban Steal said with a smile: "Your Majesty, wherever I need someone to protect my skills, let them follow your Majesty."
Liu Xin waved her hand and said, "You haven't seen their skills, don't jump to conclusions prematurely, Kleia and Maria, you two fight a game, show the Queen Mother."
Suddenly Sister Kleia turned into a panic, crying with her head in her arms, whispering a big call, and then pulled away.
"Hold on," Ban Thioe suddenly yelled, turning to Liu Xin and asked, "Your Majesty, why are you letting them kill each other?"
Liu Xin asked inexplicably, "When did I let them kill each other?"
Banto'er gave Liu Xin a blank look, and said in an angry tone: "You didn't say it earlier, I just know now, it turns out that they are gladiators, so naturally they are endlessly dying."
Liu Xin hurriedly said: "Kleia, Maria, you all stop, don't fight, didn't I tell you earlier, you are no longer gladiators, from now on, you will stay here. Be around the Queen Mother to protect the safety of her mother and her son. If you can’t do this, don’t come to see me again in the future."
Sister Kleia panicked and looked at Ban Thiouer like a rescue. Ban Thiouer saw that these two men were extremely loyal to Liu Xin. Now that they knew they were from gladiator backgrounds, she didn't want them to leave Liu Xin's side. When Liu Xin mentioned her son, Ban Tooer changed her mind. With her skill, even if Kangju’s ministers and nobles could not tolerate her, she could guarantee that she could retire at any time, but what about her son, She can’t stay by her son’s side all the time. Ban Thiouer finally understands Liu Xin’s good intentions. The pair of gladiator sisters are two personal guards arranged by Liu Xin for her son.
Thinking of this, Ban Sneer laughed and said, "Kleia, Maria, have you two heard what your Majesty said?"
Sister Kleia suddenly woke up, came to Bento'er, and bowed down.
Ban Thiouer helped them up and said, "Actually, there is nothing wrong with you following me. After so long, you can't even speak Chinese well. Following me can at least ensure that you can learn faster."
In fact, Sister Kleia had only seven or eight days of work with Liu Xin. She could understand most of the words, and she could say one or two common words. It was quite difficult. It was not as simple as she had learned two things since she was a child. three languages,
Sister Kleia raised her head and looked at Ban Thie, and shouted "Master" together.
Seeing Sister Kleia obediently obediently submissive, Ban Sneer laughed and pointed to Kleia and said: "Actually, your Majesty just asked you to try your skills. It is simply unnecessary. Isn't that Alustin died in your hands? ,"
Kleia wouldn't take the credit of others, and bowed to Ban Tuer, "Back to the master, the thief was not killed by the slave, the slave just picked up a bargain,"
Liu Xin has always been nice to their sisters. In front of Liu Xin, they don’t have to call themselves slaves, but now that they have changed to a new owner, Kleia dare not care.
Ban Thiouer is a smart person. She also knows how to use both grace and power. She smiled and said: "I am very happy to be able to meet someone from my mother's hometown here. From now on, we will become sisters. I am a few years older than you. , You call my sister,"
Sisters Kleia naturally didn’t even dare to say, but they couldn’t resist Ban Thi’er’s repeated insistence, and had to accept it. In fact, they were born in the Daqin nobles, but how willing to remain slaves for life is precisely because Liu Xin didn’t treat them as slaves. They are loyal to Liu Xin, and now Ban Thiouer regards them as sisters. They have secretly made up their minds to protect the mother and son even if they save their lives.
Banto'er is also good at observing words and looks. Knowing that the two sisters have returned to their hearts since then, she took Kleia's hand and asked, "Then please tell me, my sister, who killed Alestin."
