Chapter 398 There will only be one country in the Western Region
"You should have some medicine on you, take it out and take a look."
Liu Jin didn't worry too much. Since he dared to come for the snake, he must be fully prepared.
Moreover, Basma's identity should be unusual. Ordinary confidants would not be able to take on such a major matter related to the fate of the country.
But Liu Jin doesn't care about her identity. No matter how extraordinary your identity is, how can you be as extraordinary as I am?
Basma took out a small bag from her body and handed it to Liu Jin. Now that she had made up her mind, she had to show her sincerity, and besides, this thing was useless.
Liu Jin opened the bag and found some white powdery stuff inside. He dipped his fingers into some of it and smelled it, but he couldn't tell the effect of the medicine, so he put it in his mouth and tasted it.
"Ding! Invulnerability to All Poisons activates!"
Liu Jin spat out what was in his mouth, with a look of disgust on his face. Hey, the expectation was in vain. It was just rubbish.
"It's a hallucinogenic drug. It's poisonous and has serious side effects. People who take it will probably become crazy."
Basma's pupils shrank, that senior was indeed crazy, but they all thought that it was because the other party had fulfilled his lifelong wish and could not withstand the stimulation. They did not expect that the other party actually used himself to test the medicine. He was simply crazy.
Liu Jin turned over and put away these medicines and kept them. Maybe they would be used at some point and it would be regarded as a reward for saving Basma and the others' lives.
"Last question, what is the current situation in the Western Region's Changshi Mansion?"
This is the issue that Liu Jin is most concerned about. Since the Shanshan Kingdom dares to annex the Jingjue Kingdom, it means that there is a problem with the Governor of the Western Regions. At the very least, it is under control. It is in name only. If it is serious, the entire army may be annihilated. .
The Changshi Mansion of the Western Regions was originally the Protectorate of the Western Regions, but since Chang Shixing was always the Protector of the Western Regions, it was directly called the Changshi Mansion.
The Protectorate of the Western Regions is a jurisdictional institution set up by the Han Dynasty in the Western Regions. It is the highest local official in the Western Regions, of course, in name only.
Its main responsibility is to coordinate conflicts and disputes among countries in the Western Regions, prevent the invasion of external forces, maintain local social order in the Western Regions, and ensure the smooth flow of the Silk Road.
However, because the distance was too far, the court did not pay enough attention to it, so there were only a few hundred people in the entire Western Region Protector's Mansion, and sometimes there were only a pitiful few.
Therefore, rather than saying it is the Protectorate of the Western Regions, it is actually more appropriate to call it the Embassy in the Western Regions.
Basma glanced at Liu Jin curiously. Ordinary people would not inquire about such official matters. It seemed that the other party was probably from a family of officials.
"I don't know." Basma shook her head slightly and continued:
"Since the news of the war in Liangzhou spread, the governor of the Western Regions retreated from Khotan (second sound of "tian") to Shanshan, and there has been no news since then."
Liu Jin twitched his lips. Although Basma didn't explain the specific situation, she conveyed a meaning inside and outside her words. It was him, it was him, it was Shanshanguo who was causing trouble in the middle.
But the long history of the Western Region was also a fool. Although Shanshan State was close to Liangzhou, he could get the exact news of the Han Dynasty at the first time, and he could advance, attack, retreat or defend.
It's just that you don't think about what Shanshanguo is, a duplicitous person.
As long as the road between the Han Dynasty and the Western Regions is not opened for one day, he will dare to let himself go and kill the Han people who come and go. Even if he is an envoy of the Han Dynasty, he will find any reason to bury you.
In the end, if the big man was to be held accountable, the worst he could do would be to send a prince as a hostage. It's not like he had never done this before.
It's a pity that the Western Region Changshi's Mansion was originally disliked by the emperor. When Liangzhou was in chaos, he became a child without a mother. He had today but no tomorrow, and he was in constant panic all day long.
Thinking of this, Liu Jin's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. Since Shanshanguo dared to stretch out his claws, he should be prepared to lose his head.
"Okay, I will send someone to investigate this matter. If what you say is true, the royal family of Shanshan Kingdom will no longer need to exist."
"However, if you dare to deceive me, no one can guarantee the fate of Jingjue Country."
Liu Jin's whole body exuded a terrifying and dangerous aura, which made Basma's face turn pale and her legs were trembling.
"I don't dare. I guarantee in the name of Jingjue Country that everything I say is true." Basma quickly assured her, her waist bending even lower unconsciously.
"Go back and tell your queen that the Han Dynasty will soon send troops to the Western Regions. There will be only one country in the Western Regions, and that is the Han Dynasty. I hope your queen can make the right choice."
Liu Jin looked at Basma coldly. To be honest, he really looked down on the Jingjue Kingdom. Even if he said it was a country, he would praise it. The country has a population of more than 3,000 and an army of 500, which is less than a village in later generations. .
In such a small country, if you randomly send someone from the Killing God Guard, at most two, and no more, you can easily destroy the Jingjue Kingdom.
Moreover, it happened that the political intentions of the Han Dynasty were spread through the word of mouth of Jing Jueguo. If the countries in the Western Regions united, they would be in trouble. If they did not unite, they would kill the chickens to scare the monkeys. In short, they would not be able to change the world.
Basma swallowed. She was frightened by Liu Jin's tone. This was not an official, this was definitely a top official.
"I wonder, young master... can you leave me your name?" Basma asked with trembling lips. This news is so shocking, we must find out clearly.
"Prince of the Han Dynasty, Liu Jin!"
Basma was extremely shocked, and then her vision went dark. She staggered back a few steps, and it turned out to be the burly prince. It was over, it was over.
No matter Shanshan State or the Han Dynasty, they are not capable of resisting by their elite countries.
Either enter the wolf's den or enter the dragon's lair. In short, the country of Jingjue is doomed.
Basma's heart was filled with despair. God was going to destroy her country. If the big man took action, there would be no solution to the fatal situation.
"I wonder if the crown prince can retain my country's title of Jingjue? The country of Jingjue is willing to pay tribute to the Han forever." Basma asked unwillingly.
"No." Liu Jin replied decisively, not even thinking about a country within a country.
……
Basma left in despair, with Liu Jin's final bottom line flashing through her mind. Changing Jingjue Country into Jingjue County gave them a different kind of sustenance. It depends on how they choose.
Basma also took two letters with her when she left. Liu Jin asked her to give them to Huangfu Song, but Basma did not dare to refuse and did not want to refuse.
The next day, Liu Jin woke up.
"System! Sign in!"
"Ding! Sign-in is successful! Congratulations to the host for obtaining: The Purifying Charm!"
"Heart-purifying mantra: Purify the body and mind, eliminate distracting thoughts, calm the mind, and protect the soul!"
Um? Something good is coming out.
Liu Jin turned over and sat up, with an excited look on his face. He still knew the Purifying Mantra, one of the eight Taoist mantras.
With this divine mantra, one can enter concentration very well, which is of great benefit to cultivating the mind.
The most important thing is that the drawbacks of Blood Sky are restrained by it.
As long as he doesn't kill too many people in one breath, he won't go crazy again.
Of course, Liu Jin wasn't going to suck it anymore because he felt a little perverted.
After practicing the Mind-Purifying Mantra for a while, Liu Jin felt refreshed and refreshed. He felt as if he had just recovered from a serious illness and was freed from Shen Ke. It had a strong auxiliary effect on his understanding of the Huntian Treasure Mirror.
