People in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Hu and Han respected together

Chapter 2 Duan Jiong's Death
"Master!"

Suddenly, there was a rush of hoofbeats and shouts from a distance, interrupting Li Yao's check of his literacy progress.

A moment later, a group of knights galloped here, then got off their horses and walked towards the children.

I saw that they were all tall and tall, and they were riding tall horses, showing a sense of aggression from the inside out.

The frightened children were a little timid, but Li Yao went straight to meet them:

"Uncle Feng, why are you back?"

Seeing Li Yao, those knights immediately saluted, and then the leader said in a deep voice:

"Young Master, not only I'm back, even the Lord is back, and I already know that you took the two young masters to play truant to school and mess around with these scumbags outside..."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of these children turned pale, even Li Yan and Li Lin were no exception, only Li Yao remained unchanged.

In this era, Li Wenhou is the real head of the family, and can even directly decide their life and death.

Immediately, Li Feng spoke again:
"The lord is very angry. We came here this time because we were ordered to arrest you!"

These children were completely panicked, and finally Li Yao stood up and stood in front of everyone and said solemnly:
"Father is back, of course we should go to see him, but these things are all my ideas and have nothing to do with them, now I'm going back with you guys, all the punishment will be borne by me alone, please don't embarrass them..."

Then he turned around and looked at the crowd, smiling and comforting:
"Don't come back before the sun goes down, don't worry, we will be fine."

"Big brother!"

……

"Master!"

……

These children were very touched. Li Yao is the master, they are the servants, and the master bears the punishment for the servant, which is the easiest way to win people's hearts.

Including Li Yan and Li Lin, although the two are not among the servants, the difference between the concubine and the concubine also makes them dare not be presumptuous.

Li Yao was able to be so calm, and that was the reason why Li Wenhou was angry again, would he still beat him to death?

Seeing this situation, Li Yao was quite relieved in his heart, then he turned around and strode towards a war horse.

This war horse was taller than Li Yao, but he easily turned over and rode on it, grabbed the rein and quickly stabilized his figure.

Li Yao knew how to ride a horse, and he was very good at riding a horse.

This is where?This is Hehuang!
From north to south, the Datong River, Huangshui River, and Yellow River, under the nourishment of these three rivers, form this area with lush water and grass.

It is suitable for both farming and grazing. In their clan alone, there are more than [-] mu of farmland. As for the grassland, it is even bigger and boundless. There are tens of thousands of various types of livestock, and there are not a few excellent war horses.

A mare gives birth to a foal. If it is in the Central Plains, it needs to be carefully fed to become a real war horse. If it is in the grassland, as long as it grows up smoothly, it can become a good war horse. It is precisely because of the vast pastures that nomads can always easily gather a large cavalry team.

With such family conditions, Li Yao knew how to ride a horse since he was a child.

Among the three rivers, Huangshui is in the middle, also known as Huangzhong.

Let's put it this way, Erlang Huangzhong, he can breathe, he can ride a horse, he can ride a horse, and he can fight. This is how Huangzhong Yicong can shake Liangzhou!
After riding the horse around twice, Li Yao glanced back again:
"I'll go back first, don't worry!"

Afterwards, the legs clamped the horse's belly, and they started to run gradually, leaving only a not-so-tall back figure for these children.

Those knights looked at each other, Li Wenhou was the current lord, Li Yao was the future lord, they were the ones they needed to pledge allegiance to.

Now that Li Yao took the initiative to go back and was willing to bear all the punishments, for them, it should be regarded as the completion of the task.

And a young gentleman who is responsible and loyal is liked by everyone.

So Li Feng waved his hand:
"let's go!"

Those knights didn't talk nonsense, they got on their horses and turned back one after another. However, Li Yao rode away Li Feng's horse, and Li Feng rode away other people's horses. Among these knights, there was destined to be one who needed to share a war horse with the others.

In a blink of an eye, there were only a group of overwhelmed children left here.

"Why did Father suddenly come back?" On the way back, Li Yao was always thinking about this question.

Even if you want to raise troops, it's not now!
With such doubts in mind, Li Yao quickly saw Wubao in the clan.

Like a small city, it stands in the middle of the farmland.

Nomads generally don't build cities, because this will affect their transfer to areas with more abundant water and grass, and when they encounter strong enemies, they can escape quickly if they cannot be defeated.

It is the style of the Han people to build Wubao.

It was still in the Western Han Dynasty, as the Hexi Corridor was gradually opened up, the imperial court at that time was in the Liangzhou area, and began a long-term, large-scale settlement of troops, and at the same time relocated prisoners, sons-in-law, and merchants... This is the main source of Hehuang Han people.

They brought advanced culture, technology, and production methods... making Liangzhou truly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

It also allowed the local Hu people to gradually begin to Sinicize, but the price was that the Han people in the past had a certain degree of Huhua.

For example - Li Wenhou!

"Father!"

Kneeling honestly in front of a middle-aged man with a stern face, Li Yao lowered his head and said respectfully, trying to awaken the fatherly love in his father's heart.

As a Huhua Han, Li Wenhou has an impatient temper, and his force value is not low.

If you confront him head-on at this time, then you really can't escape the beating.

"You are the only one who dares to disobey me when you come back!" Li Wenhou looked at Li Yao and said indifferently:
"If you don't study hard at home and mess around with those scorpions all day long, how can you inherit this family business in the future?"

The opportunity is coming!

At this moment, Li Yao immediately thought, as long as he hasn't received this beating, then there is a possibility of escaping this beating.

Immediately raised his head and said loudly:

"Father, there is no way out for studying. Erlang Huangzhong, bowing horses is the foundation. The scorpions in your mouth will be my father and son's minions when they grow up. If they want to make achievements, how can they be so despised!"

Reading, of course, is useful.

But it’s not enough to know a few words, you can be called a scholar, you have to worship a famous teacher, you have to learn classics, you need a noble person who is willing to pull you into that circle of celebrities, and then build momentum to promote your reputation and become a celebrity, so that you can finally become an official.

As for the Li family, they still have great prestige among the Qiang people, but they have no prestige at all among the celebrities.

Even the barbarians they called.

When Li Wenhou heard this, he immediately frowned. Although he thought so too, he was just feeling irritable and wanted to vent his emotions.

Just looking at Li Yaoying's energetic face and listening to Li Yao's unyielding voice, the anger in his heart gradually dissipated.

Not wanting to beat and scold his favorite eldest son, Li Wenhou just sighed in the end.

Seeing Li Wenhou like this, Li Yao knew that he would not be beaten, but he immediately asked:
"Why is father sighing, the child is willing to share his worries!"

Li Wenhou glanced at him, and then his expression became more gloomy:

"The captain is dead!"

Although Li Yao was prepared, he was still shocked when he heard this.

As far as he knew, the current Taiwei was Duan Jiong, who was also Li Wenhou's backer.
