Liang Xiao was stunned for a while before carefully pushing Beta away and getting out of bed.

The door of the tent sounded softly, and Sigma's little head came in, looked at Liang Xiao, and smiled. "Master is awake?"

Liang Xiao nodded in a hurried manner. "When is it?"

"It's almost dawn." Sigma walked in, wrapped in cold air, and there was still some thin snow on her helmet and shoulder armor. She quickly walked to Alpha and the other two, touched them with her cold little hands, and smiled wickedly: "Lapies, get up quickly."

As the Amazon female warrior, the three of them screamed almost at the same time, turned over and sat up, and entered a state of fighting. When they saw their appearance clearly, they were embarrassed and quickly searched for their clothes. Seeing three slim figures flashing in the tent, Liang Xiao suddenly felt his nose itchy, and a certain part began to move again.

"Master, you are so awesome." Sigma covered her mouth and glanced at Liang Xiao. "Master, I know, I will be very happy."

Liang Xiao followed Sigma's gaze and looked at the restless part. He was embarrassed and quickly turned around to find the cloak. After turning two rounds, he couldn't find it. Sigma's eyes turned, pulled the cloak out of the messy bed, put it on Liang Xiao's shoulder, and then found Liang Xiao's clothes and robe.

Under the servitude of Sigma, Liang Xiao put on his clothes and came out of the big tent.

In front of me was covered with silver. The originally green and yellow grassland turned into a snow field overnight, with thick snow everywhere, and the cold air was overwhelming.

There were still a lot of bonfires burning, and some knights sat around the bonfire, drinking wine, eating meat, and talking. I don’t know if they hadn’t been asleep or woke up again. Their respective war horses stood aside in groups, pushing away the snow on the ground, eating grass roots, occasionally raising their heads, shaking their manes, and niggling lightly in the wind.

Seeing Liang Xiao coming, the knights stood up one after another and saluted respectfully. "Happy New Year, sir."

Liang Xiao smiled and waved his hand. "Happy New Year."

Walking along the tent, breathing the dry and cold air, Liang Xiao wrapped his cloak tightly. Before he knew it, he had been away from Chang'an for half a year and had been away from Yanmen for more than four months. Now he finally arrived at Yuezhi. The dangers of this journey were beyond imagination. The harvest was also beyond imagination. However, Liang Xiao was not completely proud, and he still had a hint of worry.

This place is too far from Chang'an. Until now, he has no idea what the imperial court, especially the emperor, has opinions on his trip. Should he support, agree, or refuse to express his opinion? To put it seriously, this is a forgery. When he formed an alliance with Yuezhi Dayuan and returned to Chang'an happily, what awaited him may not be rewards and rewards. It may also be a punishment and imprisonment.

The kindness of heaven is hard to predict, and this young emperor is famous for being difficult to serve. Even Wei Qing, who is so loyal that he cannot die well, why can he hope to die well? Perhaps there is still a possibility that he will stay in Chang'an honestly, and now he has done such a thing as a forgery...

Liang Xiao sighed inwardly.

"Master?" Sigma led Gasatus to Liang Xiao's side, tilted his head, and looked at him. "Do you want to ride a horse and run a lap? No matter what troubles you have, as long as you ride a horse and run dozens of miles on the grassland, all the troubles will fly away like pigeons."

Liang Xiao thought about it, took the reins of the horse, and turned over the horse. Sigma also jumped onto his mount. The two of them let go of the horse's hooves and ran on the grassland that had just snowed. Gasatus is worthy of being a famous horse in Dayuan. Even on the snow, he still ran fast and steadily. The cold wind blew towards Liang Xiao's body and made him feel cool, and it also blew away the uneasiness in his heart.

What if he doesn't matter, let's do it first. It would be a pity to let go of such a good opportunity. If Liu Che was so unreasonable, I would move the whole family and stop serving him. Anyway, he is not a good boss.

While riding a horse and galloping, Sigma shouted loudly: "Master, wait for me, wait for me."

"Hurry up" Liang Xiao laughed: "Catch up with me and teach you the ultimate tricks of archery."

Half a month later, Liang Xiao arrived at Jianshi City.

Yuezhi Dalu Ashana went out to welcome him. He was about fifty years old, of medium figure, and was very strong. His face was dark and his wrinkles were as deep as a knife. His two deep-sleeping eyes were filled with deep vigilance. Even though he was smiling, he still felt wary.

Seeing Liang Xiao from afar, Asha Na jumped off his horse, spread his arms, and strode towards him, with a loud laugh.

"Haha, General Divine Arrow from the Han Dynasty, I welcome you on behalf of the Yuezhi King."

Liang Xiao turned over and dismounted and greeted him with a smile. Guo Wenbin followed him closely and translated Ashana's words to Liang Xiao. Before Guo Wenbin finished translating, Ashana had already walked to Liang Xiao, opened his arms, hugged Liang Xiao in his arms, and patted him twice.

These two strokes were really heavy, and the "bang bang" sounded like a war drum. Liang Xiao's heart tightened by his slap, and he almost couldn't breathe.

Ashana looked at Liang Xiao in surprise, let go, took a step back, nodded, and said something. Guo Wenbin translated: "Sir, he said you are very strong and a real master."

Liang Xiao smiled bitterly and said, "I'm pretty solid, otherwise I'd be beaten by Dalu."

After listening to the translation, Ashana shook his big hand like a palm fan and laughed. "How could a hero who can shoot and kill King Hunxie be slapped to death by me?"

Liang Xiao was very surprised. He did not tell the Yuezhi officials about shooting the Hunxie King and his son. How did Ah She know?

After hearing his question, Ashana said with emotion: "Sir, although we have just met, we have already received your favor. You shot and killed King Hunxie. The Huns were frustrated and lacked enough troops. They have been fighting in Nanshan for the past two months. We originally thought that the inevitable war ended before it even began. Countless Moon Warriors lived for one more year because of you."

When Liang Xiao heard this, he immediately felt that the taste was wrong. The Yuezhi people were so afraid of Wusun people, and they had no confidence at all. If they went into battle, they meant death in battle?

Liang Xiao didn't say anything, but just smiled and listened to Asha's words. When the situation was unknown, it would be better to listen than to speak rashly.

Seeing that Liang Xiao was not complacent because of killing King Hunxie, Asha was very satisfied. He introduced Liang Xiao to the situation of the Moon Branch.

Thirty years ago, King Yuezhi died in battle. Because Prince Aliu was too young, he was regent from the Yan clan and the people in the country called him the queen. Now Aliu has grown up and the queen is choosing the right time to abdicate. However, she has been regent for more than 30 years and is deeply loved by the people, so many people are reluctant to leave her and try their best to keep her. The domestic powerful people are divided into two factions, and each has its own reason, which is difficult to decide for a while, and even affects the war against the Wusun people.

When Liang Xiao heard this, he felt a sense of familiarity. The queen mother was addicted to the regent and was unwilling to abdicate. The little king grew up and wanted to monopolize the power, but due to the obstruction of domestic forces. This is very similar to the current situation of the Han Dynasty. Ashana said it warmly, but the inside story may not be like this. Prince Aliu is already in his thirties, and the queen is still unwilling to give in. There is too much information hidden here.

"Who is commanding the war against Dayuan now?" Liang Xiao said without hesitation.

"Of course it's the prince." Ashna chuckled: "Sir, be careful when you see the prince. You have snatched his credit."

Liang Xiao smiled. "When I meet, I will be in good faith to the prince."

Ahsha was laughing loudly, but she laughed a little dry, and it sounded a little reluctant.

Accompanied by Ashana, Liang Xiao walked into Jianshi City. Jianshi City is much larger than Guishan City, but its prosperity is much worse, far less than the lively scene of Guishan City coming and going. Liang Xiao asked, and Ashana said helplessly: "I have been fighting recently, and all the merchants have run away."

"Since fighting?"

"Yes, with Bactricia." Azhan waved his hand lightly. "But it doesn't matter, our warriors will soon conquer Bactricia, and the merchants will naturally come back then."

Liang Xiao didn't say anything else. When they came to the inn, Ashana had already arranged his residence. Liang Xiao handed over the letter of the country written by Mei Gaoshu, and explained his purpose to Ashana. Recently, he took out the armor and heads of the father and son of Hunxie. After hearing this, Ashana promised to report to the queen as soon as possible and let Liang Xiao wait in the inn. If there is anything, he could send someone to his mansion to find him.

Liang Xiao thanked him and personally sent Ashana to the door. After returning, he said to Guo Wenbin: "Come immediately to the market to take a few people who are familiar with Yuezhi to check it out, learn about the situation, and especially ask about the situation of Prince Aliu."

"Sir, do you think the queen is unreliable?"

"Women, and an old woman, naturally want to be more stable. They have no confidence in Wusun, but they have the upper hand in Baktria. If you were you, what would you choose? Although the hometown is precious, if the price is too high, few people would be willing to pay."

"Where is the prince?"

"The prince may want to take this opportunity to gain military power, or he may want to take this opportunity to establish his authority. No matter what, he is definitely more willing to take risks than the elderly queen. If I can't convince the queen, I plan to try this prince again."

Guo Wenbin nodded, called a few people, cleaned up, and went out.

Liang Xiao took Xiya and Xigma and walked around the inn. First, check the accommodation conditions of his subordinates to enhance their feelings with his subordinates, and second, check the environment of the inn and understand it. Once something happens, he can quickly and correctly respond.

After walking around the inn, Liang Xiao had a basic judgment in his mind. The inn was repaired very neatly, and several places were even pushed back and started again. This shows that the Yuezhi people had already planned to settle in the Jianshi City, otherwise they would not have worked so hard.

The queen is old, so it is difficult to tell. No wonder Zhang Qian in history has been futile.
