Li Xu couldn't think of a better way, so he had to implement the plan designed by Duer. Duer also suggested that he and Xu Dayan should not do this kind of thing themselves, and it would be more effective to find a warrior from the Su Chuan tribe.
The two of them came to A'Silan again with their treasures and entrusted the other party with the gift-giving. A'Silan was also a cheerful person. Seeing Li Xu's sincerity, he picked two soapstones of decent quality from the package.
An emerald bracelet, happily helping to change sheep.
Li Xu and Du Er picked some more fine jade carvings and sent them to the homes of Erditai and Bathimi. The elders of the two families were secretly weeping because of the death of their sons. Seeing that Fuli treated each other so sincerely, they felt a little better.
As the subordinate's parent, I accepted the gift with great gratitude.
After making an appointment with Duer for a night of drinking, and leaving the matter of slaughtering the sheep and cooking the meat to the couple, Li Xu took the package and went to visit the coppersmith master, Aunt Qing and several other people who had taken care of him.
He passed his shepherd friend. After completing a large circle, the sky was getting dark.
Several young people set up a fire in the open space in front of Li Xu's felt bag, drank wine, ate meat, and sang joyfully. In the recent battle, the Su Chuan tribe suffered little loss but gained a lot, so everyone was in a happy mood. Li Xu
Although the shock in my heart yesterday has not dissipated, the smile on my face is no longer so forced when facing a large group of friends with similar ages and cheerful and optimistic personalities.
"This time to expel the Suotou Xi people, the Bakoruo clan chief of the Chunyi tribe did not keep his promise to send troops, but made many excuses to shirk it. I heard that the Xier clan chief was very angry about this!" While the wine was in full swing, Ah
Silan pretended to be mysterious and revealed to everyone.
"The boy Bakorona was originally a cow dung with a smooth surface. When Eru married him, he was like a flower stuck in the cow dung!" Gesana, a warrior from the Sheto tribe who killed five opponents in the first battle, secretly watched.
Looking at Xu's big eyes, he muttered in a low voice.
Eru looked at Xu Dayan with such intense eyes that even a fool could see the meaning. Su Chuixir united with nearby tribes to attack the enemy. If Ba Ke from the Chunyu tribe did not keep his promise and send troops to help, it would mean that what would happen in the future was clear.
Su Chuixir and Zhi Shiba competed for the throne, and he would not side with his future father-in-law.
Therefore, from the perspective of Eru herself and her family, this marriage contract is worthy of reconsideration. Hou Quli, Ashibi and other young heroes all raised their wine bowls to touch each other, but their eyes secretly glanced at Xu Dayan
.I'm afraid there is another mystery to Aslan's words today. The key to the whole matter now does not depend on Eru, but on the Xu Xian in front of him, whose wisdom is deeper than the Crescent Lake.
"It's not a good idea to fall out with the Chunyu tribe right now!" Xu Dayan seemed not to see the expectation in everyone's eyes. He took a sip of wine and analyzed calmly. "The tribes far away from us don't know the truth and will think that Sir
The clan leader will become ruthless when he gains momentum. In the future, if there is a conflict between the Suchu tribe and the Zhishuba tribe, people’s hearts will turn towards the Zhishude tribe!”
Everyone was silent. What Xu Dayan said was indeed true. The marriage between tribes had a strong color of exchange of interests. Moreover, Eru was the apple of the eye of Chief Xier and one of the most beautiful women within a few hundred miles.
1. The matter of regretting the marriage is very simple, but the series of chain reactions caused by it may need to be carefully considered by Su Chuobu.
"Hey!" Duer picked up the wine bowl and sighed quietly.
"Hey!" Aslan shook his head.
The fat of the mutton roasted on the fire dropped drop by drop, and the flames rose, illuminating everyone's eyes.
The young man's heart was filled with distractions, and after a few sips of wine, the topic turned to other places. From the spring fat of cattle and sheep in each family, to Xu Dayan's dreamlike formation of troops, every time he mentioned it, he could
It triggered a burst of happy laughter.
Drinking on the grassland is always drunk. Because he is in a happy mood, Xu Dayan, who has always drank very restrainedly, made an exception today. While telling jokes to everyone, he drank one bowl after another with everyone. Soon,
He was the first to fall down. Aslan and others laughed and continued to raise their bowls to each other. It was not until everyone's bodies began to sway that they left the table laughing.
Li Xu once again defeated the others with his drinking capacity. He closed the stall and put out the fire, but still felt sober. Looking at Xu Dayan who was drunk into a pile of mud, he shook his head and put his good friend on his shoulders. Xu Dayan was not
It was because he was happy that he wanted to have a drink with someone. Lin Ren, who had a rough temper, couldn't tell it, but Li Xu knew that his friend was feeling sad.
"Actually, if you marry Eru, what can others say? The worst we can do is have a fight with the Chun Yu Department!" Li Xu put Xu Dayan on the felt, and whispered while preparing the brazier for his friend.
.With the current strength of the Suchu tribe, no tribe within hundreds of miles would dare to provoke it. If the leader of the Xier tribe proposes to break off the engagement, the Chunyu tribe, which is already at a disadvantage, may not really dare to raise any objections.
"Zhongjian, you don't understand!" Xu Shiji opened his sleepy drunken eyes and murmured.
"Don't you like Eru, my fair lady? Gentlemen are so jealous. What don't you understand?" Li Xu asked while blowing on the fire and adding charcoal to the brazier.
"The Xu family takes a wife, hehe, the Xu family!" Xu Dayan sneered and turned over, making no sound anymore.
Still far away from his felt bag, Li Xu saw the dim light coming from the crack in the door. The feeling of someone waiting for him made him feel warm. For a moment, he felt as if he had a home again, even the wild grass on the grassland.
The night breeze is no longer unpleasant.
There was a lamp, a charcoal fire, and someone had cooked tea and was waiting beside the charcoal fire. What more could he ask for? Li Xu smiled and pushed open the small door made of felt. The savage girl must have come again. I have a clear mind today, so I can do it.
Tell her clearly what needs to be said between each other. Li Xu knows that he likes this wild girl in the tent, but whether it is out of human duty or respect for his parents, he should talk to both parties before marrying her.
Say hello to your parents. My family is not the Xu family, and my mother must be happy that she can marry such a beautiful daughter-in-law. My family will not be like the Xu family, who think that marrying a foreign woman is a shame to the family.
The girl she was looking forward to did not appear. A figure rolled up from the side of the charcoal basin. She fell to the ground like a frightened lamb. While choking on her head, she shouted tremblingly: "Slave Ayun, please see your master. May your master be well!"
Where is this? Li Xu's brows almost turned into a big knot. "Master? I..." He rubbed his eyes desperately to make sure he was not drunk and dazzled. There was indeed a girl lying in front of the charcoal basin.
, it was not Tao Kuo who took off his silk, but a Xi tribe. From the iron collar around his neck and the sheepskin pants that exposed half of his calf, Li Xu immediately recognized the identity of the person.
The girl's body was very thin, and her back was still trembling slightly due to excessive fright. Li Xu did not order her to get up, and she did not dare to raise her head. She just pressed her forehead against the felt mat, shivering like withered grass in the wind.
"Who are you? Who asked you to come here!" After confirming again that he was not dreaming, Li Xu squatted down and asked in a low voice.
The pressure from the top of her head immediately made the girl's body tremble even more violently. She kept rubbing her half-naked calves back, but she didn't dare to move too much every time. Li Xu's voice clearly sounded like crying when he answered:
"It's Mrs. Wan Qing. It's Mrs. Wan Qing who ordered the slave to serve the master. The slave has not served well, please punish the master!"
"Go back, I don't need slaves here!" Li Xu sighed and whispered. In the afternoon, he went to give a gift to Aunt Qing, just because he wanted to thank her for buying Shu brocade at a high price. But he didn't expect to receive the gift.
Aunt Qing returned with a big living person as a gift. Born in a prominent family in the south of the Yangtze River, Aunt Qing was naturally used to handling servants, but for someone who had been accustomed to doing the trivial matters of life by herself since she was a child, it felt particularly awkward to have an extra person in the felt bag.
"This slave shouldn't have fallen asleep. Please punish me. Master, please don't send this slave back. I know you are wrong, I know you are wrong!" The girl kowtowed and said incoherently. In an instant, the white carpet appeared on the white carpet.
Got blood.
Li Xu didn't expect that his words would frighten the girl like this, so he quickly reached out to help her. As soon as his big hand touched the girl's shoulder, the other person's body suddenly trembled, and instantly stiffened into a stick shape.
"You, please get up and talk. Don't kowtow. I'll feel dizzy!" Li Xu saw the girl's fear from her pale face. He retracted his hand in embarrassment and ran away.
The girl was frightened by him, but she didn't dare to cry anymore. She shivered and struggled to stand up, leaning on the felt bag, as if Li Xu was a ferocious beast opposite her, panicking and trying to eat her at any time.
"Aunt Qing sent you here?" Li Xu tried his best to find a communicative topic to ask the other party. He didn't know how he looked so vicious that he could scare a girl like this. The girl in front of him was bigger than Tao Kuo.
Tuosi is slightly shorter, but in terms of appearance, she should be older than Tao Kuo Tuosi. With black hair, pale face, and if her arms didn't look slightly thicker, Li Xu even suspected that he had met someone who was being raped.
A woman from the Central Plains abducted by human traffickers.
"Yes, it was Mrs. Wan Qing who ordered the slaves to serve Master Fuli!" The girl replied in a Turkic language with a weird accent. Seeing that Li Xu had no desire to pounce at any time, she straightened her trembling knees slightly.
"I'm not blaming you for falling asleep, I really don't need to serve you!" Li Xu smiled kindly at the other party, showing his neat teeth.
The girl trembled, fell to her knees with a thump, and cried out: "This slave can wash the clothes for the master, the slave can make tea for the master, the slave can do anything for the master, please, don't eat me, don't eat Ayun."
!”
"Eat you?" Li Xu's eyes almost popped out. When did he become a man-eating devil? He could scare a woman into this state even by showing her teeth.
"Ah Yun, Ah Yun doesn't taste good. Her body is dirty and she hasn't been washed!" The girl's nerves finally couldn't hold on any longer. A few words popped out between her teeth, her body turned over, and she fainted on the carpet.
"Do I eat people?" Li Xu put his hands in front of his eyes and looked at them repeatedly. After confirming that there were no barbs growing on them, he slowly understood why the other party was so afraid of him. (To be continued)
