Chapter 39 No War in the Central Plains (2)(1/2)
Many people got drunk that night!
After Dong Zhao and Dong Tie and others passed through the valley, their hearts were finally put back on their stomachs. The worry that had been sober for many days needed to be fully relieved and released, and drinking was undoubtedly the best choice at present. At least, it was very safe here.
Teng Li'er also drank too much and finally got a result with Pei Yuanshao, so she naturally didn't feel much pressure.
However, Dong Qi did not drink too much.
He was very sober, and even in this camp, he did not dare to relax at all.
"Bohou, I want to ask you about some things, and I will go to my place and sit down."
After the banquet, Dong Qi suddenly grabbed Pei Yuanshao, who was about to help Teng Lier back to rest. Pei Yuanshao nodded, "After Yuanshao sent Lier back to rest, go immediately."
Accompanied by Lu Yi, Dong Qi took off his armor and sat down after the long desk.
The broad-blade knife was placed on the long table, and the elephant dragon treasure arch left to him by my brother-in-law. I tried it a few times and it was fine to pull it open, but Dong Qi's shooting skills were really bad. It was a pity to put such a good bow in his hand. It was ridiculous to say that the Dong family's shooting skills were quite good. Only Dong Qi is an alien, and no matter how you practice shooting skills, it can't be improved.
Dong Qi has been ridiculed by the fourth sister many times for this.
Maybe I really don’t have the talent in this area. After practicing for so many years, I can’t compare to the shooting skills of Little Girl Lu Yi.
Unfortunately, this bow is too strong. Otherwise, it would be a good choice to give it to Lu Yi.
When Dong Qi saw this Baodiao bow, he unconsciously remembered his sister and brother-in-law. He asked Lu Yi to take the jar containing his sister's ashes and put it on the long table. With the Baodiao bow, he bowed three times, and then sat there in a daze.
Pei Yuanshao walked into the tent and saw Dong Qi sitting there with a dull look on his face. He couldn't help but be stunned.
Just as he was about to speak, Lu Yi put his finger on his lips and made a gesture of silence. This gesture was the first one that Dong Qi used, and Pei Yuanshao understood the meaning. So he found a seat and sat down quietly.
"Ah, Bo Hou is here!"
"Lord, Yuan Shaogang is here..."
Dong Qi came back to his senses and saw Pei Yuanshao, saying humility, which made Pei Yuanshao feel a little flattered.
"Lu'er, guarding outside. I want to say something to Bohou. If someone comes, please remind me."
"knew!"
Lu Yi walked out of the tent and lowered the curtain.
"Lord, what are your instructions? Yuan Shaowan will never refuse to die."
Dong Qi waved his hand, "What's the point of not dying? How unlucky. I really don't want to see someone die again, so don't say such things in the future... I came to you, but I actually want to ask you something. Well, it's about Taipingdao."
Pei Yuanshao was stunned, "Yuan Shao said everything."
"I want to ask, Taipingdao last year...I meant that before you surrendered to me, did you do anything bad?"
"Illegal behavior?"
"Or, is there any special news? For example, the great wise and good teacher wants..."
Dong Qi watched Pei Yuanshao helplessly. He had to figure out whether the damn Yellow Turban Rebellion had already broken out.
Han Sui's actions in Xiliang were in a strong tendency to rebel.
If we follow the storytelling, the year when Xiliang rebelled was the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
There must be a connection between the two. Dong Qi is already very sure of this... Didn't the medicine that killed his sister come from Taipingdao? Dong Qi even doubted whether Taipingdao had an agreement with Han Sui and rebelled in the same year?
Pei Yuanshao understood what Dong Qi meant, and in the past period of time, he knew that this lord hated Taipingdao very much. As for the reason for the hatred, he didn't know and didn't think it was clear. Just why did the lord ask this?
After thinking about it, Pei Yuanshao said: "Lord, although the Taiping Dao is powerful, at present, there is no cheating behavior. However, before Yuan Shao surrendered, he heard Tang Zhou mention something. He said that the great wise and good teachers had two lists... One of them contained the name of Qu Zheng from various places. According to Tang Zhou, Qu Zheng was just a position established by the great wise and good teachers to facilitate the management of Taiping Dao, and they were all his confidants. The other list was an imperial official."
Although this news is precious, it is not what Dong Chu wants to know.
"Bohou, have you ever heard of Taipingdao here?"
Pei Yuanshao's face changed drastically, "Lord Mingjian. Although Yuanshao was born in Taiping Road, he never contacted them again after following him."
Dong Qi waved his hand and said, "I know, I'm not the one who connects with Taipingdao. I just want to know, what is the situation in the Central Plains now? I've been busy avoiding Han Sui's men these days, and I don't know much about the situation in the Central Plains."
"I haven't heard of any movement!"
Pei Yuanshao was confused and looked at Dong Qi in confusion.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, Dong Qi was even more confused. There was no movement, which means that the Yellow Turban Rebellion had not happened yet. The storytelling said that the Yellow Turban Rebellion was a turbulence in the Eight States. If it really happened, there would be movement in the Hehuang area.
However, storytelling has harmed him once.
Just because he underestimated Han Sui, he killed his elder sister and the others.
Dong Qi didn't know if he should continue to believe in the storytelling "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". He was so distressed that he was afraid of his forehead and stared at the items on the long desk in a daze. Sister, if it were you, what would you do? Please tell me!
"Take good care of grandma, take good care of parents, take good care of yourself..."
My sister's words echoed in Dong Qi's ears, causing him to clench his fists involuntarily. Maybe some things have changed, maybe nothing has changed, but the appearance of his little butterfly has some small twists and turns.
Since the general direction will not change, you must take action.
Even if it is a promise to my sister, take good care of my parents... Yes, I must not let my father re-take the routines in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
"Master!"
"Ah, Bo Hou, you haven't left yet!"
Pei Yuanshao looked at Dong Qi with a wry smile and thought to himself: You are my lord, and if you don’t let me go, how could I leave?
He looked at the items on the long desk and lowered his voice, "I heard from Dong Zhao, are the young lady and the others..."
Dong Qi's eyes that had been squinting suddenly opened, and a killing intention flashed.
"Mr. Bo, it's too late, go and rest."
Pei Yuanshao's heart trembled, and he quickly stood up and bowed, "Yuanshao takes his leave!"
When he walked to the door of the tent and was about to reach out to lift the curtain, Dong Qi suddenly spoke.
"Bohou, they are all still here... here!"
Dong Qi pointed to his head, then pointed to his heart. He smiled at Pei Yuanshao, although it was ugly. He said: "How long can you live, how long can you be here, and stay with me."
Pei Yuanshao left...
Dong Qi was still sitting in the same place, leaning against Yi Chang Chou in a daze. He wanted to drink, but it would be best if he had been drunk and forget everything.
Lu Yi walked into the tent, sat down against the door, and looked at Dong Qi in a daze.
*******
Three days later, the White Horse King Teng Ziju arrived with a large group of White Horse Qiang soldiers.
Under the introduction of Teng Lier, Dong Qi met the White Horse King. He is not very old, in his early thirties, has a very tough appearance, long beards under his jaw, and has a rather elegant temperament.
Teng Ziju looked at the elephant dragon treasure bow on the long table, and stared at the elephant dragon BMW outside the big tent for a while.
Suddenly, he raised his foot and kicked the eldest son's case, and cried bitterly: "Brother, Ziju is incompetent, and he didn't even see his brother for the last time."
Dong Qi did not come forward to dissuade him, but watched Teng Ziju vent his anger and said, "Master, please feel sorry for me."
"Brother Dong family, you said... how can we take revenge!"
Tengziju had red eyes and shouted loudly: "I am willing to exert all the power of Baima Qiang and swear to kill Han Sui and avenge his brother."
A stream of passion rushed to the top of his head, and Dong Qi almost couldn't help but say, "Let's go now."
But he knew that it was not yet time. Although the northwest is currently in chaos, Shaodang and Po Qiang are hostile to each other. However, under Han Sui's mediation, the fight will certainly be temporarily stopped. If the White Horse Qiang joins now, it may cause the two sides to truce early. At that time, with the power of the White Horse Qiang clan, they may not be Han Sui's opponent. Dong Qi had to be careful.
"Master, you must avenge your revenge, but now is not the time."
"It's not the time, when can I take revenge? Brother Dong, don't you want to kill Han Sui immediately?"
"King, I want to kill Han Sui more than anyone else, but..."
Dong Qi closed his eyes and tried to calm his emotions. He said: "How many soldiers can the king have in his clan now? Han Sui was a famous scholar in Western Liang and was respected by many Qiang tribes. When we go now, he can immediately pull out tens of thousands of people, or even hundreds of thousands of people, to fight us. I am only worried that if you cannot repay the enemy, the king will be implicated."
"But……"
"There is a plan that can be said to the king."
Dong Qi thought for a while, "The king should not use his troops at the moment. Han Sui was eyeing Hehuang. You sent troops and gave him an excuse. You might as well guard Hehuang first, and at the same time, you took out a small team of cavalry, disguised as a burning or a defeated Qiang people, and provoked a fight between the two tribes. Even if Han Sui is famous, he may not be able to stop the fight between the two tribes. You only need to make the hatred of the two tribes worse... I will return to Lintao in the next day, and report to my father, and the imperial army will be invaded from the Taoshui River. At that time, you can lead the troops from the side and rear to attack. If you attack them twice, Han Sui will be killed."
Teng Ziju thought about it and nodded, "The Dong brothers have a great plan, Teng Ziju will follow his brothers."
The two discussed for several days, and after seeing nothing wrong, Dong Qi said goodbye to Teng Ziju.
Teng Ziju naturally refused and kept Dong Qi for more than ten days. He knew that February had passed, so he reluctantly sent the group away.
Originally, Pei Yuanshao and Teng Lier had already become husband and wife under the auspices of Teng Ziju and Dong Qi.
According to Dong Qi's intention, Pei Yuanshao was asked to stay in Hehuang. Youdao would rather demolish a temple than a house. Although Dong Qi had lived in this era for many years, some aspects were still considered with the thoughts of the previous life.
However, Pei Yuanshao said that he would not want anything. A real man should make achievements, which was also his original intention of joining Dong Qi.
I thought Teng Li'er would come forward to keep Pei Yuanshao, but after listening to Dong Qi's words, she actually supported Pei Yuanshao's actions.
"Lord, if Bohou wants to make achievements, Teng Lier knows the importance of the matter. Although Teng Lier will be very happy to stay in Hehuang, but Bohou will definitely be unhappy. Although Hehuang is big, it is also very small... Even if Bohou stays here, he is afraid that his heart will not be here. Please ask the lord to take him with you, Teng Lier is willing to wait for him."
Speaking of this, Dong Qi naturally couldn't keep Pei Yuanshao.
After a few more days, the group finally set off.
Pei Yuanshao and Dong Zhao explored the way in front, while Dong Qi and others followed behind.
