Chapter 129 Guidance from Bloodline
"What do you mean? Could it be that Ma Juzi was sold to Shuntian Mansion and detained by the population?"

The general entered the house as he spoke, and He Xiong followed him. While helping the general take off his armor, he said, "The general guessed wrong. The horse did not leave our northern land, but was in Tai'an County. But now we are raising horses." Juzi's family, I'm afraid you will be surprised when you hear this.

"Back then, I followed the old general on the battlefield and made great achievements in the [-]th Battalion. Only one wounded soldier survived. The general should still remember it, right?"

"Remember!" The general raised his brows, and his eyes were a little dazed.

He is tall and tall, and the severe cold and hardship at the border for many years have created the determination and solemnity between his brows.

But thinking of the Seventh Battalion, he couldn't help adding a bit of pity and regret to his expression.

It used to be the strongest and most admirable battalion of troops in the frontier army. It was led by his father, the deceased old general himself. He was invincible and killed all the enemies outside the border.

It's a pity that no matter how powerful the soldiers are, they can't stand those schemes and schemes, and finally die of hatred.

But their sacrifice prevented the border from being breached and ensured smooth exchanges between the old and new dynasties.

Although the emperor of the new dynasty feared the frontier army as always, and hated having to pay him food, he was afraid that the frontier army would rebel and take his country again.

As a result, the frontier army was under the enemy's front and back, and had to resist the harassment from time to time outside the border, and also guard against all kinds of difficulties and contempt from the court.

But all the soldiers and generals had no regrets and defended their homes and country. Their enduring humiliation and heavy burdens brought peace to the Wei Dynasty, especially to the North!

"If I remember correctly, the only surviving wounded soldier should be surnamed Tai. When he was still in the army, besides following the old general on expeditions, what he liked the most was taking care of the horses. The old general's Mo Yun was given to him. He takes care of it, and the old general often brushes Mo Yun's hair and drinks water with him."

He Xiong nodded and said with a smile, "I remember when the general was 15 years old, he wanted to steal a horse and go out to play. He was almost kicked into the wall by the horse. Uncle Tai pulled the general away..."

"Cough cough!" The general coughed twice, preventing the guard who had grown up with him from being "unpretentious".

He Xiong laughed dryly and quickly went to pour tea.

After both of them sat down, He Xiong told what happened, and finally said, "It was a coincidence. Maybe there was something left in Ma Juzi's blood that allowed him to find Uncle Tai when he was dying, and he was rescued." Leave a life behind.

"Uncle Tai's whole family is very fond of Ma Juzi and named him Gale. Especially the children in Uncle Tai's family are very close to Gale.

"Feng also looked very spiritual, worried that I would take it away, and even kept rolling his eyes and spit at me!"

The general couldn't help laughing and responded curiously, "Seriously? That's really rare. If I have a chance in the future, I will definitely go and see this pony!"

It was rare for He Xiong to see the general so happy. After all, the general had too many things to worry about and be annoyed about for the entire frontier.

So, he racked his brains to say more, so that the general's happiness could last for a while longer.

"If the general has the opportunity to go to the Tai family, he must not only pay attention to the wind. He must also take a look at the little granddaughter of the Tai family. She is obviously a farm girl, but this little girl looks like the little fairy child under the Guanyin Seat. Yuxue She is cute, very smart and bold. She hugs my neck and never lets go. She always sits in my arms. She is so cute!

"According to Uncle Tai's family and the villagers, the child was stupid until he was three years old. Suddenly he woke up after bumping his head one day. After that, everything went smoothly at home and life was prosperous. Uncle Tai's family and the villagers all said I am very fond of this child. Fortunately, this child is very smart and not at all arrogant."

In the middle of talking, he patted the table and said pleasantly, "Oh, there is another thing we encountered on the way!

When we reached the southern mountain pass, the big boulder from the top of the mountain suddenly rolled down, half sealing the mountain pass!If it weren't for my stomachache, I would have stopped the team and rested for a while before crossing the mountain pass, otherwise we would have all been killed by falling rocks!
"Perhaps it was because of the good fortune of the little girl of the Tai family that the danger was saved. When I see the little girl next time, I will buy her more good things!"

The general was surprised when he heard this, but he didn't take it seriously. Years of licking blood from the knife edge and earning his own life had already made him immune to ghosts and gods.

After all, burning incense and praying to the Buddha is easy to use, and the tens of thousands of frontier troops don't have to fight against the enemy and the wind and snow in the north every year.

But he wasn't disappointed either, and echoed a few words with a smile.

As he gets older and has a high position and authority, there are not many people around him who are willing to joke with him like He Xiong...

He Xiong spoke happily and stopped talking when he saw that the wrinkles between the general's brows had opened.

"Uncle Tai's family is really kind to Haifeng, and Haifeng is unwilling to leave, so I decided to keep it temporarily. I just wait for the general to make up his mind. If it really doesn't work, I'll make another trip."

The general took a sip of tea, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then asked.

"Tell me, is it possible that the thing that the old general hid was entrusted to the Tai family?"

He Xiong froze for a moment, subconsciously turned his head to look around, and saw that there was no one else in the room, and there were guards around, so it was impossible for anyone to eavesdrop.

He lowered his voice and replied, "I don't think so! General, you don't know that Uncle Tai's family lived in extreme hardship before. I heard that Aunt Tai died of illness and starvation. And Uncle Tai's grandson has a talent for reading. He was extremely tall, but because he injured his leg and had no money to treat him, he was lame for several years and was kept at home.

"If that thing was in Uncle Tai's hands, how could he just watch his wife and children and grandchildren suffer without thinking about it?
"Now that the Tai family has built a new house and bought a field, I heard that a little girl from the Tai family was abducted. The Tai family risked their lives and fought with the Jianghu people to rescue a boy from a wealthy family.

"The rich family sent a lot of congratulatory gifts. In order to avoid the jealousy of outsiders, the Tai family hurriedly spent them, and the food was much better. Otherwise, the Tai family...wouldn't have enough to eat!"

The general sighed, and the slightest hope in his heart was extinguished.

"That's all, the news about that thing is probably based on rumors, and it may not really exist. Even if it exists, with the temper of the old general, it must be properly arranged. How could it be entrusted to a wounded soldier?
"I was impatient. I always wanted to find that thing. The whole army wouldn't have to struggle like this. At least they wouldn't have to endure the cold and hunger, and they would have to fight the enemy!"

He Xiong didn't respond, and he really didn't know what to say, after all, it was 20 years ago.

However, after the general said this, he regained his energy, "Spring is about to begin. Let's open up more wasteland to grow more food. We should first solve the issue of military rations. Then the court will have much less constraints."

After that, he told him, "As for the Tai family, it's better to have less contact. In the future, when Jiaofeng grows up, if there is a suitable mare, send him there, and bring back another foal."

"As for that thing, don't mention another word. After all, we are not the only ones thinking about that thing, and those people firmly believe that this thing must exist.

"Don't let those people know about the Tai family and bring trouble to the Tai family. After all, there is only one veteran left in the old general's seventh battalion."
