Abstract

WANG ZHAOJUNa: Where are we now? XIONGNUb KHAN: This is Black Dragon River, the borderline between the Hanc and the Xiongnu.1 Everything to the south belongs to the Han empire, and everything to the north belongs to our barbaric Xiongnu kingdom. WANG ZHAOJUN: Your Majesty, may I ask for a cup of wine to make a libation to the South and to bid farewell to the Han, before I go on my longjourney? (She pours a libation.) [Ma 1989, 11-12]
