Ma didn't dwell on it for long.

Compared with the starting point of his grandson's career, the safety of his grandson is more important.

She solemnly said to her husband Hai Xiya: "Forget it." If you have been in this Suzhou city for a long time, you may have to fight again at any time, and it is not necessarily safe to be a flat-headed common man, let alone to go to the battlefield as an officer? I'd rather the child be safe and secure for the rest of his life and be a hundred-year-old little man than let him go to the battlefield to earn his life! The sword has no eyes, and no one can guarantee that the child will be safe...... Dingcheng was better than people back then, didn't he lose his life? Baoshun is not as capable as his father! ”

Besides, it's just an eight-rank official position. With her grandson's intelligence, as long as she learns the ability to settle accounts from her master, are you afraid that she won't be able to be an official in the future?

Ma was very confident in his eldest grandson's ability, thinking that he would be able to get ahead sooner or later, so he was not willing to let him stay in the dangerous Suzhou for three more years for a petty official position.

Anyway, by the time the couple left, the rank of her husband's Haixi Cliff must have already risen. As long as there is a six-pin, when the grandson takes over in the future, he will be more confident than the average big-headed soldier. With the connections of their husband and wife, can't they open up a bright road for their children?

Ma Shi took her husband's hand and said, "I know that the master is very grateful for the kindness of the Zhou family, and he can't see that the Zhou family is in trouble, so he always wants to contribute to his family." But when the husband and wife are old and are willing to stay in Suzhou for a few more years, they are already repaying the kindness of these years. The previous 20 years of hard work can't but be counted, right? It's a big deal that the old man will take more care to do their errands better for them, so that they don't have to worry about food and grass anymore. If there is anything else, they can't help. The position of governor is good, but it is not to the point where we can watch our children take risks! ”

Hai Xiya listened, and his expression slowed down: "Madam, don't worry. Although Suzhou City is a border city, there was a big war not long ago, but in the next few years, it should be peaceful, and there will be no more major wars. ”

Ma Shi blinked: "Why is this?" Even if the third prince of the Hu people is not here, the Hu people may come over. Over the years, they have sent troops to harass them, when have they been polite? ”

Hai Xiya smiled and lowered his voice: "Although the imperial court has not yet issued an explicit order, when he ordered General Zhou to write a letter to his brother in private, he had already hinted a little. The imperial court intended to negotiate with Hu He, and the Hu people also agreed, but the time and place had not yet been decided, but it would never be in Suzhou, it could be in Ganzhou, and it could be in the territory farther away from the Western Regions. Regardless of the outcome of the talks, the two countries will certainly sign a peace treaty, and it has been agreed that neither side will lightly start a war for several years. ”

Ma Shi was a little disapproving: "Where is this accurate?" In case the Hu people only agreed to sign the contract just to save the third prince from going back, and turned around to take the people back, they turned their faces and didn't recognize people, what can they do with them? ! ”

"The current situation of the Hu people is not very good, even if they intend to invade the east, I am afraid that they are powerless." Haixi Cliff snorted softly.

He and his cousin Xie Wenzai, as well as Cao and Lu, recently discussed the situation in the northwest, and they also had points in their hearts. The news said that the old Khan King of the Hu people was dying, and the only candidate who could succeed to the throne was the little prince, and the young lord succeeded to the throne, and there was a strong and ambitious Uncle Wang beside him, which was a sign of civil strife.

As soon as the old Khan died, whether it was the Khan queen and the little prince's faction, or the Wang Shu and the third prince's faction, they did not have an advantage in terms of military strength, and the two sides could be said to be evenly matched. If the third prince is put back, Uncle Wang may add a boost, but the defeated and captured third prince will also lose his prestige and will no longer be in the past; If the third prince is not let back, Uncle Wang's faction will definitely be hit hard, but if he doesn't want to be forced to death by Queen Khan and the little prince's faction, he still has to hold on to the end. As a result, the Hu Khanate still had to focus on infighting and nothing else.

Not only because the two countries signed a peace treaty, but also because these two factions check and balance each other, no matter which faction intends to invade the east, they must consider whether the other faction will benefit after the defeat, and the other faction must worry that the prestige of the former will rise after the victory, and in the end, the two factions will pull each other's backs and will not make the first one. If you want to start another war, you have to wait for a result between these two factions, and one of them has enough strength to worry about being taken advantage of by the other.

During this time, there can always be three or five years, which is a good time for Suzhou City to rest and develop.

Haixiya believes that before the little prince of the Hu people grows up, Suzhou City should not have to worry about a big war, those small-scale cavalry sneak attacks or bandits and looting and the like, their own generals take care of it, and the Hai family lives in Suzhou City, so there is no need to worry about security. It is rare that General Gu Qinghong is willing to promote his grandson, so he let the child practice martial arts at home first, learn general affairs, and practice his skills well, and directly fill the gap after three years, and experience a few years in Suzhou City. As long as Haijiao has experience and qualifications, and his ability is recognized by the generals, if he, who is a grandfather, will he grow old, can General Wednesday and General Gu still watch him return to his hometown as an old man, but his only grandson can't serve in front of him?

He has worked hard for the border army for more than 30 years, and this dignity is still there.

As long as General Wednesday is willing to write a letter of recommendation for Haijiao, even if Haijiao returns to Yongping's hometown, he will not have to worry about finding an errand in the nearby guardhouse. Marshal Zhou of Zhenguo Gong is a master in the army, with a great reputation, and there are many of his former subordinates as generals around Zhili, no matter which general he is, he will not refuse the juniors recommended by the Zhou family. What's more, the reef does have real talents?

The child starts in the army as an eight-grade, has both talent and Bole, and the road in the future will be wider?

Hai Xiya told his wife in detail about his plans, and said: "Our Hai family has no foundation in the army, and even if there are a few relatives, it may not be reliable. If you can get the sponsorship of the Zhou family, wouldn't it be more stable than others? It's just a delay of a few more years in Suzhou, what can it hinder? Although we are not young, we can still be called tough, and it is not difficult to work in the guardhouse. Just for the sake of the child, if you hold on for a few more years, what can't you do? For my selfish reasons, I have been dragging down my wife, son, and daughter-in-law over the years, but now I can contribute to my grandson's future, no matter what I do, I am willing! ”

Ma was moved. If things are really as the husband said, then there is indeed a future and stability.

She whispered, "Is this accurate?" Did Wednesday's general's recommendation really work? Isn't there a pavilion boss on the court side who likes to go against the Zhou family? It won't affect the foreheads, right? ”

Hai Xiya felt that this matter was okay. Although Sun Ge's old faction had a dislike for the Zhou family, they were only going to the northwest military power, and they were not even targeted by an eight-rank civilian petty official recommended by the major general of the Zhou family. There are so many health offices around Zhili that all of them are in the old department of the Zhou family, which shows that this road is unhindered. Haixi Cliff is a painstaking one, and naturally it has already been carefully considered for his grandson.

Ma Shi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, but he didn't forget to remind: "I said earlier that I would return to my hometown after leaving Guazhou, because the generals kept the master, and the master agreed to be an official in Suzhou for another term, and now he said that he would stay for another three years, which will be a long time." Cousin Xie, they didn't say anything? They are not young anymore, and they are all looking forward to returning to the Central Plains? ”

Hai Xiya said: "Don't worry, I have discussed these things with my cousin, and they have no objections." ”

"There's no objection to that, it's all up to the master." Ma Shi made a decision, and then asked about the topic he was interested in, "Hu Ren, that old Khan King, is he really going to die?" How old is he? I remember that when he was young, he also worked as a proton mile in Dachu! ”

The begonias in the middle suddenly widened their eyes.
