Just hand it over to the country. To be fair, Wei Guan was quite unworthy of his talent under his command.

Did he want him to stay and draw the floor plan of Liu Tan's mansion? Liu Tan didn't need so many maps.

After finishing the painting of Chigu City, Liu Tan was ready to set off.

Although he was reluctant and wanted to draw the whole picture of Wusun, it was obviously impossible. If you want to send the bride, then so be it. But if you want to travel around their entire country, even a fool can see that you have bad intentions.

The day before leaving, Liu Tan went to see Princess Danyang.

At this time, Princess Danyang had more or less adapted to life in Wusun.

When Liu Tan went to say goodbye to her, Lie Jiaomi actually showed up out of courtesy. He observed her for a moment and found that the look in Lie Jiaomi's eyes when he looked at Princess Danyang was full of love and... kindness?

He was in a complicated mood for a moment. After saying some polite words to Danyang, there was nothing else to say.

Most of the necessary reminders had been given before the wedding, and the rest was up to her. If she couldn't do it, no matter how much she said, it would be useless unless Liu Tan personally took over.

On the day of their departure, Junxumi escorted Princess Danyang and personally sent them out of the city.

No matter how much mental preparation they had made beforehand, the brother and sister still couldn't help but have tears in their eyes when they said goodbye.

Liu Tan took a deep breath and said, "Write a letter home every month. Even if you encounter grievances, don't bear it. Remember to write a letter, okay?"

Princess Danyang held back her tears and nodded, not daring to speak, for fear that her voice would change as soon as she opened her mouth.

Junxumi on the side always felt that Liu Tan was warning him, but the problem was... who would bully Princess Danyang?

He secretly glanced at Danyang and felt that the princess had a bright and generous smile and tears in her eyes when she cried. She was so beautiful that he couldn't bear to bully her.

After finishing speaking, Liu Tan bowed to Junxumi and said, "Goodbye."

Junxumi originally thought that he would say a few more words, asking Wusun not to bully Princess Danyang, but he didn't expect the other party to be so decisive and just got on his horse and left.

After Liu Tan got on the horse, he never looked back, for fear that if he looked at Princess Danyang too much, he would not be able to resist and take her back.

However, when they set up camp fifty miles away, he couldn't help but stand on the highest point and look in the direction of Chigu City.

In fact, Chigu City is such a small city and there are no particularly tall buildings. He can basically see nothing standing here.

Huo Guang walked up to Liu Tan and asked, "What are you looking at, Your Highness?"

Liu Tan pointed to a shadow in front and asked, "Is that Chigu City?"

Huo Guang said helplessly: "That is the huge rock we just passed. Your Highness, we can no longer see Chigu City from here."

Liu Tan was feeling a little depressed. He responded and turned back to his tent.

Huo Guang frowned slightly. In fact, he admired people who valued love and friendship, but... if they were too sentimental, they would easily become depressed when faced with separation and death, which could lead to premature death.

Huo Guang's view of Liu Tan has changed from someone who may compete with the crown prince to someone who can assist the crown prince. Even if he does not assist the crown prince, he should be able to become a good prince in the future.

It's uncomfortable to think about people like this dying young because they are too sentimental.

Just as Huo Guang was pondering how to persuade Liu Tan, a scout reported back, "Captain, a group of Wusun people have arrived. The leader claims to be the Little Wusun Kunmi and has come to pay a visit to Your Highness."

After hearing this, Huo Guang turned around and went out to take a look. When he saw Lu Xuan leading a black horse, he suddenly felt relieved for some reason.

Lu Xuan's arrival should be able to divert the attention of their Fifth Prince, right?

After Lu Xuan saw Huo Guang, although his expression did not change, his posture had already shown that he had entered a silent fighting state.

Unexpectedly, Huo Guang was very friendly when he saw him and said, "The young Kunmi is here. Your Highness is in the tent. Please come in."

Lu Xuan couldn't help but look at Huo Guang several more times, feeling a little puzzled. Huo Guang had been wary of him like a wolf before, so why did he change his nature today?

Little did he know that Huo Guang needed someone to help Liu Tan divert his attention at this time.

The most important thing is that Huo Guang now sees Lu Xuan as someone who might have kidnapped our Fifth Prince, but has turned into someone who has been deceived by the Fifth Prince without realizing it.

Therefore, Huo Guang was very tolerant towards Lu Xuan at this time, fearing that he would scare people away because of his harshness. Who would then accompany the Fifth Prince to get the map of Xiao Wusun?

Although Lu Xuan was puzzled, he had not thought of this. In addition, he was very eager to see Liu Tan, so he did not care about it.

Liu Tan had already received the news and was waiting for Lu Xuan at the tent entrance. Seeing Lu Xuan, he smiled and asked, "You came so early. You must have come a long way, didn't you?"

Lu Xuan walked quickly, so fast that Huo Guang could hardly keep up. When he was almost in front of Liu Tan, he paused and said with a smile, "It's not very far. If you don't come now, I'm afraid you'll get lost."

Liu Tan slapped his head and said, "It was my mistake. I forgot to ask you how to get there."

Lu Xuan smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm here now."

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Huo Guang and said, "I'd like to trouble the captain to help me arrange for my entourage."

Because this was a legitimate visit, unlike the previous two times, even though Liu Tan had been emphasizing that it was just a private exchange that did not involve the relationship between the Han Dynasty and the Wusun, Lu Xuan could not just come alone. He had to put on a grand display to welcome him.

So he brought more than 300 cavalrymen.

These more than 300 cavalrymen were the best ones selected from among his guards. When they heard that they were going to follow the little Kunmi to welcome his sweetheart, they all dressed themselves up brilliantly, for fear of embarrassing the little Kunmi.

Looking at the knights standing upright on their horses, even Huo Guang had to admit that the grassland people had a huge advantage over the Han people in light cavalry.

After Liu Tan led Lu Xuan into the tent, he asked, "Come to think of it, I still don't know what your capital is called."

This was because he was familiar with Lu Xuan and knew that he would not be angry about this matter, so he asked directly. Otherwise, he would have done his homework with Huo Guang long ago.

Lu Xuan said calmly, "It doesn't have a name. We migrate occasionally, often switching back and forth between several cities, so we don't have a fixed capital."

Liu Tan was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"

He originally wanted to ask why, but then he felt that this seemed like spying on other people's internal affairs.

Lu Xuan spoke directly and heartlessly, "Because my father passed away early, I was still young when I succeeded to the throne. The ministers were worried that the Great Wusun and the Xiongnu would harm me, so they came up with this plan to prevent the Xiongnu and the Great Wusun from accurately grasping my whereabouts. This was also to protect me."

When Liu Tan heard this, he immediately said, "In that case, I won't go to your place. Just take me to a beautiful place to play for two days."

Lu Xuan curled his eyes at Liu Tan and said, "It's okay. Tan can understand."

Facing Lu Xuan's trusting eyes, Liu Tan felt a rare sense of guilt.

He wanted to draw a map of Xiao Wusun purely out of habit. After all, in later generations, the place where Xiao Wusun was located belonged to the Flower Growing Family, so in Liu Tan's heart, this piece of land could not be given up.

But at the same time, he had no ill intentions towards Lu Xuan and had no intention of doing anything to him.

But he also knew that once the court got the map, what would happen would be beyond his control.

It must be said that when facing Lu Xuan, he still softened his heart for a moment, so he said: "From what I know, our current route seems to be closer to the Xiongnu."

Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment, then said with some confusion, "This place... is quite close to the Xiongnu."

Not only are they close, think about it, the location of the small Wusun is between Dunhuang and Qilian, and the Xiongnu's military strength can basically extend to Dunhuang. This shows that the Xiongnu not only plundered the Han Dynasty, but also bullied the surrounding small countries, but they dared not speak out.

Otherwise, why would the Wusun people propose marriage after knowing that the Han Dynasty was capable of fighting against the Xiongnu?

Liu Tan suddenly placed his hands on the table, leaned slightly closer to Lu Xuan, who was sitting opposite him, and whispered, "Then how many roads leading to the Xiongnu royal court do you know?"

The moment Liu Tan approached, Lu Xuan even subconsciously held his breath. Just before holding his breath, he smelled the warm fragrance coming from Liu Tan's body.

The fragrance was very special, and as soon as he smelled it, he was reminded of the grandeur and prosperity of the Han Dynasty capital.

Liu Tan's action was subconscious, as he felt that this was something that needed to be kept secret, so he spoke quietly closer.

When he saw Lu Xuan staring at him intently, with his ears red, he realized that he seemed to be getting a little too close. He could only smile awkwardly and sit up straight.

Lu Xuan also came back to his senses at this time, and felt very regretful for a moment. He should have taken the opportunity to go over and sit down with Liu Tan to discuss things!

He cleared his throat and said, "You know three things. Do you want to..."

Liu Tan pursed his lips and said, "I want to go and take a look. You can send someone to be our guide. Of course, we don't necessarily need to go to the Xiongnu royal court. We just need to get a little closer and show us the way."

After hearing this, Lu Xuan suddenly said, "It's not impossible to go to the Xiongnu royal court."

Liu Tan looked at Lu Xuan in surprise. This time, Lu Xuan came over and said cheerfully, "It's not like I haven't been there before. The Xiongnu royal court is huge, and many families still roam around. One or two more people won't be a problem."

Liu Tan's heart was moved, but he quickly calmed down: "No, it would be too conspicuous if I went to the Xiongnu royal court."

Lu Xuan said indifferently, "You can wear a mask or cover your face. As long as you don't go near where the Xiongnu nobles are, no one will care."

Liu Tan was quite excited after hearing this. If he could bring Wei Guan to the Xiongnu royal court, then what would he have to worry about?

He was very tempted, but Huo Guang could no longer bear it. He listened outside the tent for a while, and when he heard Liu Tan asking about the Xiongnu affairs, he subconsciously chose not to go in, fearing that Lu Xuan would refuse to say anything after he went in.

But they had no choice but to go in now. If they didn’t go in, this wolf cub would really kidnap their fifth prince!

No matter how anxious he was, Huo Guang knew his limits. He spoke outside the tent first, and then waited for Liu Tan's consent before coming in.

Huo Guang couldn't show that he had been eavesdropping, so he could only pretend not to know and asked, "Your Highness, it's time to set off. This place is not suitable for camping at night."

Lu Xuan immediately said, "I know a suitable place. I'll take you there."

After Lu Xuan said this, he stood up and prepared to leave, and Liu Tan had no choice but to stand up as well.

As they left, Huo Guang looked at Liu Tan sternly and said, "Your Highness, you are worth a fortune. Don't take any risks!"

Liu Tan nodded somewhat guiltily, and then Huo Guang said, "If the young Kunmi really has a solution, let him send his men to take Wei Guan with him."

Liu Tan thought about it and it made sense. He would be worried if he went to the Xiongnu royal court, but it would be much safer if Wei Guan went.

The most important thing is, what’s the point of him going to the Xiongnu royal court?

After setting off, Lu Xuan realized that he had done something wrong - he had just subconsciously mounted the horse, but his Ah Tan was in the car!

It was too late to get back into the car. Huo Guang and Jiang Chong were riding horses, each protecting one side of Liu Tan's car, as if they were guarding against him.

Well, maybe not as if, these two people were guarding against him.

But it doesn't matter. After setting up camp, he will always find a chance to get together with Liu Tan.

Although he was wary of Lu Xuan, Huo Guang had to admit that the camping site chosen by Lu Xuan was really very suitable. It was close to the water source, but not too humid. There were hills to block the wind, and the view was wide enough.

After setting up camp, Lu Xuan moved closer to Liu Tan and started chatting about things like the customs of the Wusun people.

In fact, Liu Tan already knew some of these things, but he didn't know much about the lives of ordinary people. When he heard that the Wusun people held a bonfire party every night, he couldn't help but feel moved.

Seeing him like this, Lu Xuan said, "If you like, you can do it now. I've brought people over to dance for you."

Liu Tan said with a smile, "I've always heard that the Wusun people are good at singing and dancing, but I wonder if it's true."

Lu Xuan immediately sang a song to Liu Tan. Although he used the Wusun language, which Liu Tan could not understand, he still found it amazing.

Lu Xuan's voice was clear and penetrating, a voice that was unique to young people. Liu Tan couldn't help but want him to sing a few more lines.

However, after Lu Xuan finished singing, the people he brought with him also shouted a few times. Liu Tan felt that they were just making trouble.

Liu Tan was very suspicious of the meaning of the song Lu Xuan had sung. Just as he was debating whether to ask, he suddenly saw Jiang Chong approaching with a serious expression and saying, "Your Highness, our scouts just spotted a group of cavalrymen galloping towards us."

Liu Tan immediately became alert and asked, "How many people?"

Jiang Chong said, "About three hundred people."

Before Liu Tan could say anything, Lu Xuan's expression changed and he said, "Quick, withdraw the scouts, have everyone defend, and prepare to evacuate!"
