"In that case, the general pleases first. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "Cao Pi saw that the other party was all cavalry, and his own personal guard was still 11 roads, so he simply let the other party go first.

"Even if they are on the same road, why not go the same way?" Xiahou Yuan asked with a smile.

"Hey, even though my guard is five big and three thick, he can't keep up with the speed of the horses."

Xiahou Yuan took a closer look at Dian Man and asked, "Is this person the son of the Dian Captain?" ”

"Exactly, now Ren Lang is in order."

"After the martyrs!" After Xiahou Yuan finished speaking, he immediately asked a knight riding a tiger and leopard to dismount and let Dianman get on the horse. Ordered the horseless knight to wait for him in the same place, and Dianman wanted to excuse himself, but Xiahou Yuan said: "I and your father are old friends, like brothers, and you are also your elders. "Pawnman can only obediently get on the horse.

Then the group continued to move forward, but they were no longer running as wild as just now, but they were jogging on horses, Cao Pi was riding a horse beside Xiahou Yuan at this time, Xiahou Yuan was two years younger than Xiahou Yuan, although the two had the same surname, but they were only brothers, not brothers, but the genes of the Xiahou family were about the same, and Xiahou Yuan's figure was also very high, with angular facial lines, and very masculine.

He carried a tuomu bow on his back, and an arrow basket full of goose feather arrows hung on his waist, and in addition, he had no other weapons on his body, and the tiger and leopard riders of these fifty people were only wearing black light armor, and did not bring weapons, probably because of coming to Xudu, in the imperial capital, it is always not good to bring weapons into the city.

Cao Pi saw Xiahou Yuan beside him riding his horse forward, silent, with a sad look on his face, and couldn't help asking: "Look at the general's face is gloomy, but there are thieves attacking Yanling?" ”

"The forces in Hanoi County are intertwined, but they are not in the climate, so there is no need to worry. Xiaguan is worried that although Peiguo Qian County is in Yuzhou, but there is no heavy army there, although there is my Xiahou family manor, but the power of the family can only protect the manor, to the manor is already powerless, the little girl is active, and since childhood I have been arrogant, back to the manor is afraid that no one dares to care, will inevitably travel day by day, although Yuzhou is under the rule of our army, but the surrounding strong enemies look around, scattered bandits are not nothing, Qian County is not Yingchuan, this trip will always be a little inappropriate....."

"The general loves his son-in-law very much." This is not Cao Pi's empty words, but sincerely admired, there are not many people who love their daughters like this in the Han Dynasty, after all, in this era, daughters are going to get married. There are very few fathers who want Xiahou Yuan to pick him up in person and send him back to his hometown, and he is still worried about his comfort.

"The son doesn't know, the little girl is not born to the lower official, but the daughter of my own brother, the brother died early, leaving the daughter of the abdomen, leaving only the only bloodline, two years before the Sikong army, the world was in turmoil, the bandits in Qian County were everywhere, I led the clan to resist the bandits, although the family was safe, but missed the autumn harvest season, the family food shortage, helpless can only distribute rations by household, the little girl was not yet one year old, need to be fed by the mother's milk, the lack of food in the season The family nurse ran to the big family, just gave birth to a son, There is also milk, so she asked her to feed the little girl and the young son, but there is a shortage of food in the cheap, and the milk is also less, so she can only feed one person, and the lower official can't bear to break the blood of his brother, so he chose the little girl and adopted him as an adopted daughter.... The youngest son starved to death that year........."

"..........." such a thing as love and righteousness, Cao Pi could only be silent when he heard it, and he didn't know how to comfort him. But Cao Pi understood what Xiahou Yuan meant, in fact, he transformed his sorrow for his brother and guilt for his young son into full love for this adopted daughter, which is deeper and richer than ordinary fatherly love.

"After all the years, I survived, if there was a mistake in Qian County, it would be really..."

"Does the general want his son-in-law to stay in Xudu?"

"Exactly, alas... For some reason, the little girl just couldn't get used to living in Xudu, and clamored to go back to her hometown of Qian County. ”

Cao Pi listened to the calculation in his heart, Cao Cao started the army in 189 AD, and his adopted daughter Xiahou Yuan was less than a year old two years ago, that is, she was born in 187 AD, and she is 10 years old this year. And oneself is a year.

"The general only brought his son-in-law to Xu Du after the Son of Heaven was fortunate enough to make Xu Du? Have you always lived in Qian County before? ”

"It is true that after the Son of Heaven was fortunate enough to take the little girl to live in Xudu, he did not always live in Qian County before, more often than not, he followed Xiaguan to fight in various places, and she was where Xiaguan was, but after the Son of Heaven was fortunate to Xu Du, Xiaguan felt that Xu Du was heavily guarded, and it was more stable to live in Xudu than by Xiaguan's side."

"It turns out that the son-in-law moved to the world with the general at a young age, no wonder her personality is active." Cao Pi smiled.

"Exactly.... I thought that Xu Du had heavy troops, and there were military and civilian camps nearby, so that the little girl could play safely inside and outside the city, which could satisfy her active nature, but who knew that this was the case. Xiahou Yuan smiled bitterly.

"It's easy to let the son-in-law stay in Xudu." Cao Pi smiled mysteriously.

"Why did Childe say that?" Xiahou Yuan was a little stunned.

"I guess there must have been a girl waiting for her when the general took her son-in-law to fight, and now this girl must be in Qian County!"

When Xiahou Yuan heard this, he suddenly realized, "There is indeed a girl who is waiting for the little girl, and the woman turned 14 years old three months ago, and the lower official sent her back to her hometown to marry someone." ”

In this year, girls will marry and have children at the age of fourteen, which is a normal phenomenon, to survive in the era of low productivity and chaos, more children and more children are the best way, so that the manor population is more, productivity and combat effectiveness will be improved, so the maid in the wealthy family will be married to a man when she is old, and the beautiful one may marry the descendant of the clan as a concubine, and if she is not beautiful, she can only marry the next person. Not selectively reproducing offspring was the fate of most Han Dynasty women.

"This is homesickness, thinking of its maidservant! When the general saw the son-in-law, he told her, take this girl to Xudu now, and the son-in-law will definitely not go back to her hometown in a hurry" Cao Pi laughed, a woman's mind is really the same in ancient and modern times, and this kind of thing is indispensable for women, but most of the girlfriends in ancient times were the relationship between the personal maid and the daughter.

Xiahou Yuan was born in an era of male supremacy, and he couldn't understand a woman's friendship, maybe in his eyes, except for his deceased brother's daughter. The function is the same for all women.

Therefore, after listening to Cao Pi's words, he only doubted: "If this is the case, then the son can be regarded as a great favor to the lower officials." ”

At this time, the group had already arrived at the gate of Xudu City, and the soldiers guarding the city saw the tiger and leopard riding and let them go. Cao Pi smiled and said, "Xu Ducheng has arrived, and the general will know it when he tries it." Leave! After saying that, he bowed, Dian Man also dismounted, saluted Xiahou Yuan, and then led Cao Pi's horse to Cao's mansion, and Xiahou Yuan hurriedly returned to his residence in Xu Du after returning the salute.
