Liang Xiao originally wanted to find an opportunity to talk about this matter with Mei Cai, but Mei Cai took the initiative to talk about it, just to his heart.

"Deputy King, what do you think of the Wusun people? Is it possible for them to invade Dayuan?"

Mei Cai frowned and turned around and looked out the window for a while. In the distance, the team of Wusun envoys was clearly visible. Tuban squatted in the car like a bear, with a thick back, revealing indescribable arrogance. Thinking of Tuban's arrogance in the hall, Mei Cai shivered and withdrew his gaze.

"I'm afraid...it's a matter of time sooner or later."

"How late is it, how early is it?"

Mei Cai smacked her lips in embarrassment, not wanting to answer Liang Xiao’s question. Liang Xiao sighed, reached out and pressed her hand on Mei Cai’s hand, and patted her gently.

"Deputy King, I know that this problem may embarrass you. However, we Han people have a saying that we plan ahead and some things cannot be avoided. If the Yuezhi people are a wolf with broken legs, then the Wusun people with the support of the Huns are leopards. Are you willing to face the wolf or leopards?"

Mei Cai smiled bitterly: "So, do you still want to go to Yuezhi?"

"My mission is to find allies who can deal with the Huns. The people of Dayuan dare not even face the Wusun people. How can I expect you to fight the Huns? I can only place my hope on the Yuezhi people. However, please rest assured that I will never help the Yuezhi people attack Dayuan. I will do my best to promote the peaceful life of Yuezhi and Dayuan."

"With the strength of the Han Dynasty, even if it is impossible to conquer the Huns?"

"The great man is indeed very strong, but the great man also has shortcomings." Liang Xiao stopped for a moment. "The great man is short of horses."

Mei Cai blurted out. "We have horses."

"But it is difficult for Dayuan horses to be sent to the Dahan. For now, Dayuan horses will only become tributes dedicated to the Wusun people and the Huns, and in turn tramples on the land of Dayuan."

Mei Cai sighed long and wanted to speak but stopped.

Liang Xiao didn't say anything more. The people of Dayuan are really too weak. If you want to cheer them up all of a sudden, it is indeed difficult. You can only slowly beat the edge drum to remind them of the danger and see if they can wake up.

"When are you going to leave?"

"It's either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Liang Xiao was a little anxious. "I have been delaying too much time and must speed up the progress."

"Let's wait two more days. The king may have to discuss with you. After all the talks are over, I will ask the king to arrange someone to send you there."

Liang Xiao glanced at Mei Cai and felt that there was something in his words, but it seemed to have something else. Mei Cai turned his face awkwardly and pretended not to see Liang Xiao's inquiry gaze.

Liang Xiao didn't know how to ask again. When the inn arrived, he got off the car. Meicai turned around and left straight away. Liang Xiao returned to the inn and looked at the Wusun people who had just got off the car in the distance. He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Tu Niuer.

Tu Niuer blinked. "Why would I touch it in the middle of the night, slaughter the guy and snatch that bow?"

Liang Xiao shook his head. "No, the men around him are not ordinary people. You can't deal with them alone. It's not worth it to pay your life for a bow. It's better to find another opportunity. This guy is not convinced. I'll pick it again and see if I can find a flaw."

Tu Niuer smiled. "Hehe, A Xiao, this guy deserves to be unlucky. What kind of treasure is hard to give, so he has to bring a bow."

"Who said no?" Liang Xiao shrugged and laughed.

The legs of the sudden shift who had just gotten off the bus in the distance were weak, and he stepped on the air. A somersault fell off the car, and a dog ate shit and lay heavily on the ground.

Chang'an, Maoling.

Liu Ling was wearing men's clothing and stood in the Liang family's yard, elegant and elegant. Madam Liang raised her hand to invite her. "Master Weng, please take a seat in the hall."

Liu Ling responded, and turned his head while going to the hall. At the corner, the moon hurriedly walked into the inner courtyard with Hu Xijun who was about to give birth. Before leaving, he looked back at Liu Ling. It was that glance that made Liu Ling feel strange.

"Who is that?"

"That's my sister-in-law. She's nine months old and will give birth in a few days. She must be a fat boy." Tu Huaer directed a maid to serve wine and said with a smile. She was arrogant by nature and had seen Liu Ling many times. She was not afraid. She was much more comfortable than Li Rongqing.

"I mean that girl Hu."

"She, her name is Yueliang, she is a Donghu..."

Mama Liang coughed, interrupted Tu Huaer and signaled her to stop talking. Tu Huaer is a good person in his work and is not as good as Li Rongqing in treating people and things. But he didn't know what it was for today, but Tu Huaer was responsible for serving him.

"She is a Hu girl captured by A Xiao when she was in Yanmen. A Xiao went to the Western Regions and was sent to Chang'an by the prefect of Yanmen."

Liu Ling smiled and said bluntly. "Is she pregnant?"

"Uh..." Mama Liang was silent for a moment and nodded. "Yes."

Liu Ling smiled. "Congratulations, Madam, you will have a grandson soon. You will notify me at that time that even if I am not in Chang'an, I will send someone to send a gift. This is Liang Xiao's first child. Although he is a Hu man, it will not take long before the emperor conquered the Hu people, and the Hu people will be a great man. The Chinese and foreign families will turn into Xia, and the Liang family will be a sign."

Mama Liang breathed a sigh of relief and thanked her repeatedly. Liu Ling did not mention this topic again, but instead talked about dividends. The end of the year is approaching, and she came here in person today to settle the bill with the Liang family. Because she was confined, she rarely came to Chang'an and was preparing to bring all the new looms and weavers back to Huainan. She originally planned to invite Mama Liang to Huainan, but now it is unlikely that the Liang family has settled in Maoling.

Liu Ling and Mama Liang agreed that although Mama Liang would not go to Huainan, she and Liang Xiao agreed to share the share of the money and would send someone to deliver it every year in the future.

The attendant brought the gold and placed it in the hall. Mama Liang just glanced at it and felt something was wrong.

"Master, there are too many?"

"Not much." Liu Ling giggled, "I am a businessman, no one can take advantage of me. However, a gentleman loves money and takes it well, so he will never treat people who are good to me unfairly. There are 200 gold here. In addition to the share of one hundred gold this year, the other 100 gold is the down payment for the Liuli business that Liang Xiao and I cooperate with. Liuli has just started production and has not generated profits yet. I can only make some sense this year."

Mama Liang was confused. Liang Xiao never mentioned to her about cooperating with Liu Ling to produce glazed glass. Liang Xiao still knows how to make glazed glass?

Liu Ling smiled like a flower, ordered someone to take a brocade box, take out a pure and flawless glass statue from it, and send it to Liang Mama with both hands. "This is the glass statue I made according to Liang Xiao's instructions. This is the feathered man holding a bow, a god from the Western Regions. Is it very similar to Liang Xiao?"

Mama Liang looked at the statue carefully and was surprised and happy. She had seen a lot of glass, but it was the first time she had seen such exquisite and clear and transparent glass, and it was unheard of that to make a glass. According to her estimate, this statue was worth hundreds of gold.

A Xiao, how close are you and this master? Why doesn’t this matter tell me?

Liu Ling left Maoling and walked not far away, but was blocked by a cavalry.

Han Yan rode a red horse, gently shaking the whip made of gold, and came to Liu Ling's carriage, and said with a smile: "Master, Your Majesty is welcome."

Liu Ling was a little surprised, but said nothing. She led a horse, took out a brocade box from the car, flew onto the horse, and followed Han Yan to leave the road. Now this area is in the area of ​​Shanglinyuan, and ordinary people are forbidden to enter. The emperor finally no longer needs to show himself to the appearance of Marquis Pingyang.

The two of them ran three or five miles in the forest and came to an empty place. The emperor was wearing strong clothes and shot down a deer a hundred steps away with an arrow. He couldn't help but smile. Hearing the footsteps, he looked back and smiled, "My sister looks so beautiful in a military uniform. I'm afraid she was a man in her previous life."

Liu Ling smiled and stepped forward to greet him. "Your Majesty is full of heroic spirit and commands are determined. He must have been an invincible general in his previous life."

The emperor raised his eyebrows. "Is that right? That sister thinks, who is better than Liang Xiao and I?"

"When it comes to generals and soldiers, you are not the same. When it comes to generals and generals, Liang Xiao is just a common man, how can he compare with His Majesty?"

"Hahaha..." The emperor laughed to the sky. "My sister said something so cool. Sister, you haven't come to Chang'an for a long time, so you won't just bring me some nice words, right? I heard that Huainan has done a good business recently and has produced a lot of new products. How about it? Can I also see it?"

"There is a treasure to be presented to Your Majesty." Liu Ling said, presenting the brocade box in his hand with both hands.

The emperor took it with a smile, opened it and saw a golden round tube lying in the brocade box. He picked it up and looked it over and over again. There was a transparent glass piece at each end of the cylinder.

"Is this your newly developed glaze?" The emperor raised his eyebrows. "What you give to others are gods, strange beasts, and big treasures, but this one is given to me? My sister is so stingy."

"How can a god, a strange beast be compared to this treasure? Your Majesty, why don't you raise it up and look in the distance?"

The emperor raised suspiciously, and Liu Ling taught him how to turn the golden tube. After a while, the emperor suddenly screamed: "So that's it."

Liu Ling smiled proudly. "Your Majesty, what kind of gods are better than strange beasts?"

The emperor put down the golden tube, looked at the distance, raised it up again, repeated several times, and then nodded repeatedly with a smile. "Okay, it's good."

"Then... can this treasure be worth an edict?"

The emperor tilted his head, glanced at Liu Ling, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "What do you want from sister?"

"I want to form a fleet, travel between the Central Plains and the South China Sea, and find more rare overseas beasts for His Majesty, make some small money, and make up for the almost empty wallet."

"Are you still short of money?" The emperor smiled meaningfully.

"Who made me curious too much?" Liu Ling sighed. "In order to make this treasure, I spent nearly a thousand gold to make my Majesty smile. If my father hadn't pampered me, I wouldn't know which year or month I would have succeeded."

The emperor glanced at the golden tube in his hand, thought for a moment, and his expression gradually calmed down. "This thousand gold flower is worth it, it's too worth it, it's not as simple as a smile. OK, I'm sure. Sister, if you have such a good thing in the future, you have to tell me as soon as possible."-
