Giving a girl is not a calamity

A few days later, Agula gave the wolf tooth necklace made by himself to Bayin, who put it on on the spot and took out the delicate horn that had been prepared earlier from his arms: "Anda, this is the horn I made by myself. Number, it also has our two names engraved in it, you can always wear it by your side!"

Agura took the horn and kicked it into his arms: "Okay, I will."

Two little teenagers sat on the ground, watching the sheep grazing leisurely in the distance. When I was tired, I simply lay back, the scent of green grass lingered in my nostrils, and I looked at the blue sky and the clouds of various shapes. You say some imaginative words and share your "little secrets" that can only be found between Anda.

Bayin: "Anda, yesterday I woke up to pee and heard Eji (mother) crying."

Agula turned sideways: "What's wrong? Sick?"

A daze flashed in Bayin's eyes, and he tilted his head and said, "I secretly opened the tent a crack, and saw my father pressing on Eji's body, they were both naked and moving around. Say, what are they doing?"

Agula also became dazed. After thinking for a while, he finally shook his head: "Didn't you ask?"

Bayin shook his head into a rattle: "I dare not, my father is fierce, hit me!"

Agula thought for a while and replied, "If you want to know, I'll go back and ask my mother for you." Furong's gentleness and harmony in the grassland are well known.

"it is good."

Bayin grabbed a piece of grass and put it in his mouth, and asked, "Do you want a younger brother or a younger sister this time?"

Agula replied without hesitation: "Brother."

"Yes, you already have Normin."

"My mother has always wanted to add a younger brother to me..." Agula consciously lost her words and stopped talking, but fortunately, Bayin didn't feel anything wrong.

"Anda."

"Um?"

"When can we beat Harbala and the others?"

Agura looked at the slowly drifting clouds in the sky, with a light expression: "Maybe in a few years."

On the other side of the moat, Nangong asked since he ascended the throne to rectify the internal governance of officials and employ people based on merit, and to implement benevolent governance externally and obey the will of the people. The country that was devastated by the former tyrant has recovered after three years of cultivation. And with the assistance of the general Lu Quan, the court quickly quelled the peasants and uprisings of the previous dynasty.

Not only that, for the large-scale armed cottages, Nangong Rang adopted the policy of Huairou Zhao'an. He used a guilt to appease the emotions of many rebels. A lot of wars were avoided, and the expenses of the court were saved to the greatest extent.

In order to let the people understand that he is a benevolent ruler, Nangong Rang personally planned to abolish the court fee, and even his usual imperial meal only consisted of four dishes and one soup.

As soon as the news came out, the people were all grateful and had no objection.

After the situation stabilized, Nangong Rang learned lessons and restructured the imperial institutions. Three provinces were abolished for the prime ministers on the left and right, and six ministries were set up under them, and twenty-four divisions with clear division of labor were established under the six ministries.

The Wei state has no longer established the post of military marshal, and divided the military talisman into two parts. The emperor and the captain each hold half.

On Nangong Rang's thirty-ninth birthday. A traveler named Yu Ziqi sent a map called: 'Kuzhou Huanyu', and Nangong let him know that the territory on the other side of the moat was so vast!

He personally entertained Yu Ziqi and left him in the capital for a few days to listen to the other party's travels over the years, and of course, he asked more about the northern side of the moat.

When Nangong Rang heard that there were actually flocks of cattle and sheep in the north and countless war horses, the ambitious emperor had a different idea: he had hundreds of officials supported and loved by the people, and he would definitely become the founding monarch in history. There is no reason for it Only sit on half of the country.

Every year when the water and grass are fertile, most of the festivals are held in the grasslands in July and August, which last for seven days. They slaughtered cattle and slaughtered sheep, singing and dancing to thank the gods for their blessings. At that time, the various tribes of the grassland will gather together, and even the warring tribes will temporarily stop fighting. This has been a convention for thousands of years.

The grand ceremony is the favorite festival of children on the grassland. Under the leadership of Sukhbaru, the plow department has become the new overlord on the grassland, so this conference is hosted by the plow department.

All the tribes brought rich things, and even the Tuba tribe that was expelled to the Luoshui River also came.

At night, a huge bonfire was lit in the open space in front of the king's tent at the foot of Momo Mountain. The air was filled with a strong aroma of barbecue, the warriors of the grasslands were enjoying their drinks, and the women put on the most beautiful clothes and sang and danced around the bonfire, arm in arm.

Sukhbaru and his wife were sitting together in a case. Furong was five months pregnant, and Sukhbaru specially ordered someone to lay a precious tiger skin under the seat of Furong.

Halfway through the banquet, many warriors in the venue were already drunk and fell to the ground. Rao is an excellent drinker and Sukhbaru is also slightly drunk. Tired of playing, Agula brought her sister Xiaodie back to her parents, and Furong was cutting meat for the two children.

"King Sukhbaru Khan." Hearing the voice, the family of four raised their heads in unison, and saw a burly man with gray beard leading a seven- or eight-year-old girl to their table.

Sukhbaru waved his hand, and the guard put an animal skin next to the case: "It turned out to be Eri and uncle, sit down." The person who came was Nagus Erihe, the Khan king of the Tuba tribe.

The attention of Agula and Xiaodie was attracted by the little girl who was walking with them. The girl was wearing a small jacket made of precious firefox skin. Her big watery eyes and long eyelashes were also looking at them curiously. .

"This is my youngest daughter, Gia, who is eight years old this year."

Ji Ya said obediently, "King Khan, Ketun."

Sukhbaru nodded and poured a bowl of kumiss for Erihe himself: "Please."

The two took up the wine bowl and drank it all in one go. Sukhbaru signaled the warriors behind him to be Nairi and Chop the meat. The latter pondered for a moment and said in a low voice, "I have something to discuss with King Khan this time."

"Oh? Uncle, please speak."

Agula noticed that Jiya had been staring at herself, with a few traces of search in her eyes and something she couldn't read.

Erihe said, "I heard that you have a son who was bestowed by the gods to be able to tame fierce horses and be excellent at riding and archery?"

Sukhbaru laughed and hugged Agura: "This is my son, Agura."

"Agula has seen Eri and King Khan." The etiquette of Agula and Xiaodie was taught by her mother herself. Although Furong had never read any books, in the bones of Wei people, they were born with a little more humility and gentleness than grassland people.

It's a pity that politeness didn't exchange for goodwill. Erihe looked at Agula with mixed feelings: this legendary prairie prodigy was different from what he imagined. I thought that Agula would inherit Sukhbaru's excellent blood, but he didn't want to resemble his humble Southern mother. The body is weak and thin, with the exception of those amber eyes that did not follow Sukhbaru. On the contrary, the little girl next to her is more like a prairie, but unfortunately she has a pair of black eyes from the south.

Erihe sighed inwardly: The Tuba tribe was driven to the edge, and the animals in Tianhe did not get enough to eat because of the year-round flooding. In recent years, the old bottom of Tuba's department has been hollowed out. Although he married Weike's department, the other party was afraid of Sukhbaru and refused to help!

"Gia was born when I was forty-nine years old. It is the pearl of my forehead and heart. This time I plan to leave Gia in the plow department and entrust it to King Sukhbaru Khan."

As soon as these words came out, Xiaodie was the happiest person. There was no girl of her age in the plow department.

A bad premonition flashed in Furong's heart, and she secretly held her husband's hand. Sukhbaru shook his wife back to reassure her, and asked, "Since he is the uncle who is dear to his heart, it is better to keep him by his side, why stay with me?"

Erihe swallowed the sigh that came to his mouth, and said with a forced smile: "Speaking of you and I should have been married..." Seeing Furong's slightly changed face, the conversation changed, "Agula and Jiya are the same. Years old, I will keep Jiya with you for a few years. When Agula is thirteen years old, I will marry her! This time I also brought a thousand fat sheep, five hundred strong cattle, and a hundred horses. A good horse and a hundred intact animal skins are used as Giya's dowry, I just hope you can give me a few succulent pastures for me to migrate with my clan."

Eri and his hands tightly pressed his knees, the ravines on his face tightened. He felt his dignity bleed. Think how powerful his Tuba tribe was in the past? However, after more than ten years, the situation has been reduced to the point of offering a daughter for peace!

With a "bang", the knife in Furong's hand fell on the table. Xiaodie on the side smiled brightly, while Agula tilted her head and fell into thinking: I am also a woman, can I marry another woman? But she didn't dare to ask questions. Last time she helped Bayin ask her mother, in exchange for a good beating! My butt was swollen for two days!

Sukhbaru squeezed his wife's hand back. Feeling the warmth of her husband's palm, Furong was slightly reassured.

"Uncle, what are you talking about? I'll call you uncle, and Jiya is my sister. Speaking of which, sister Jiya is a generation higher than Agula."

Prairie people do not pay attention to the non-blood lineage, the elder brother died in battle and the younger brother married his sister-in-law; the father Khan died in battle and the son married the concubine mother. However, Erihe heard the irony from Sukhbaru's words: when Sukhbaru refused to marry Erihe and remarried his daughter to Prince Weikebu, the other party was also a generation younger than his own daughter. Are you making fun of yourself by offering your daughter to survive

Erihe's face was extremely ugly, and Sukhbaru was even more in a dilemma. If Furong is not there, he is afraid that he will accept it first: on the one hand, if the king of Tuba Khan personally asks for peace, if he is rejected, it is equivalent to a declaration of war, and on the other hand, the dowry given by the other party is also generous. The Tuba tribe is not what it used to be, and Erihe is already showing weakness and asking for such a dowry. If Furong is not there, he will definitely agree. In the future, he will have a son with Furong and then marry Ji Ya...

With guilt, Sukhbaru picked up the full wine bowl and handed it to Erihe, but the other party knocked it over. The guard warriors behind the two Khan Kings pulled out their machetes one after another. Butterfly in her arms.

Erihe snorted a few times, pointed at Sukhbaru's nose and said, "Good you Sukhbaru, Erihe wrote it down."

After finishing speaking, he took Ji Ya and hurriedly left.
