Chapter 121 Tiger Girl Camp(2/2)
“Buy from Sewai?”
"Yes... the Hu people latched the border and attacked the frontier many times and plundered the population. Ma Song is now responsible for purchasing Hu horses from the Hu people and then sending them to the ranch. In the past six months, due to the war, even his horse team has been stolen several times."
Dong Qi frowned, "Is the Hu people so much trouble?"
Ma Song, who had been accompanying him, said, "Lord, it's not just the Hu people. Now, in the quiet land, Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Xiongnu people are in chaos. Sometimes the official army not only ignores it, but also pretends to be a horse thief to plunder. In March, I was almost killed. If I hadn't seen the opportunity at that time, I found that the situation was not good, and I would have left, so I was afraid that my life would have been sent."
Official army, Hu people, Wuhuan, Xiongnu...
Dong Qi felt vaguely that he seemed to have forgotten something.
Dong Yuan said: "In early May, a group of Huns from Wuyuan killed in Hedong. However, the number of people was not large. After looting some small villages, they quickly left."
"Huns?"
Dong Qi couldn't help but say, "Aren't the Huns driven away?"
"You are talking about the Northern Huns. When Emperor Wu of Han revived, he attacked the Huns many times. Many Huns moved, but some people expressed their submission. The court allocated a piece of land to them, distributed in Wuyuan and other places in the Sili area, and was called the Southern Huns. However, the strong court did not dare to cause trouble. Now the court... the war in Jizhou and other places has not stopped, and the court has no time to take care of themselves. How can they have time to teach those Hu people a lesson?"
Dong Qi tilted his head and smiled, "Sister I've learned a lot than when I was in Lintao. Could it be that I have eaten more of my brother-in-law's saliva and become smarter?"
Dong Yuan's face turned red, and she grabbed the wine bottle and smashed it over.
Shamoko secretly asked, "Brother, can you become smarter if you eat saliva?"
"This, maybe!"
This saliva was a word invented by Dong Qi, and only the people in the Dong family knew the meaning. Mrs. Dong smiled helplessly, but she was also very happy. Her daughter and Dong Qi were as good as her biological siblings. Wouldn't her status be very stable?
"A Chou, stop making trouble with your sister!"
Mrs. Dong stopped the siblings from fighting, "Junming just said, are you planning to take us back to Lintao this time?"
"Well, I almost forgot about the big thing!"
Dong Qi hurriedly put away his smile and said seriously: "Now that the court has lifted the party ban, a new round of party struggles will inevitably arise. If my father makes great contributions, he may also be involved. You also know that my father's personality will not easily depend on one side, but the method of getting along with others is no longer suitable. It is afraid that it will be difficult to be a human being when staying in the Central Plains."
Mrs. Dong is not very clear about politics, but she also understands what Dong Qi means.
"If this is the case, it's better to return to Liangzhou. Some time ago, I heard from the wife of the Anyi Order that the court was preparing to restart the law of the state governor. Congratulations to me, your father made great contributions and might become a state governor. I don't quite understand what the state governor is, but since I'm not happy to stay in Guandong, it's better to return to Liangzhou. At least we are more familiar with it."
"The child also thinks so."
Dong Yuan said even more excitedly: "It's good to go back to Liangzhou, it's great to go back to Liangzhou. I haven't wanted to stay here anymore. It's so boring, and there's not even a person to talk. When I go back to the ranch, I can train my tiger girl camp well... A Chou, after I go back, give me Lu'er."
Dong Qi was stunned, "What are you doing?"
"Hehe, I heard that Lu'er's martial arts are very good now, and she has learned some military skills from you, which can be just right for me to train my Tiger Girl Camp. By the way, I also want Pei Yuanshao's wife... It is said that she is even more powerful than Lu'er."
Mrs. Dong's face sank, "Fourth sister, don't mess around."
"Where am I messing around?"
"Your grandma had sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that Ah Chou would go back this time and he would definitely get married first. Lu'er has been with him for many years, so she should have a title. She should be busy with this matter first when she goes back, so she will not have time to accompany you to make trouble."
"A Chou, are you going to get married?"
Dong Yuan smiled, "My Chou is finally going to get married!"
Regardless of Dong Qi's blushing face, Mrs. Dong stood up and said, "Sister Fourth, don't mess around in the next few days. Take someone to prepare your luggage. We will set off in three days to return to Lintao. As for A Chou, you'd better not stay in Anyi. Let someone leave first tomorrow... Mother is also thinking about you very much. Go back early so that the old lady can rest as much as possible."
