Everything is changing, but everything seems to be less conspicuous.

Outside Chang'an City, the wilderness wakes up from the deep sleep of the cold winter. Although it is still a little cold, there are some momentum of grass buds growing and thousands of trees competing for spring.

As the world became brighter from the white, gray and black colors, a new activity also began.

Strolling in the spring.

Fei Qian was no exception. He took his family to the north of Chang'an to visit the ruins of Shanglinyuan. Shanglinyuan was destroyed during the Wang Mang period. At that time, Wang Mang demolished more than ten palaces in Shanglinyuan in the first year of Dihuang, took their materials and tiles to create nine ancestral temples. Later, the war between the Wang Mang regime and the Red Eyebrow Rebel Army for the capital caused Shanglinyuan to suffer a devastating disaster.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, most Shanglin Gardens were destroyed and no longer the old view. In the "Fu of the Western Capital", it also says: "I only look at the old ruins, but I hear them from the old ones." This means that in fact, Shanglin Gardens were already ruins during the Bangu period.

Not far away, Xiao Feizhen was running happily beside the woods. Huang Yueying followed her helplessly. There were guards around her to protect her. From time to time, Xiao Feizhen's excited laughter came.

Combining work and rest, compared to adults, it is a good thing for children as long as they can go out to play.

Fei Qian and Cai Yan walked slowly on the grass slope beside the woods.

"This guy is still obedient these days?" Fei Qian asked casually, "Actually, many people are staring at this guy, but he doesn't know yet..."

Cai Yan tilted his head slightly, "You mean..."

"These people, they know that they need me to cover them in front of me, so when I am there, they won't move too hard... But this kid is not sure when he comes up. In more than ten or twenty years, he will be almost done to rest and rest, and people's hearts will definitely float..." Fei Qian looked at Fei Zhen who was running with a smile, "If he is not smart enough at that time... Hum...

"Ah?!" Cai Yan doesn't have much control over politics.

"Liu Jingzhou this time, probably it's a big deal. After all, some things cannot be used to joke often..." Fei Qian continued to say slowly, "There must be two, so this time, there are people coming to Yuzhou and Jiangdong... Liu Jingzhou is old, and everyone is not optimistic about the son of Liu..."

『Liu Jingzhou…』 Cai Yan was stunned for a moment, 『They…』

"They came to discuss with me how to divide Jingzhou..." Fei Qian smiled slightly, "After all, I have left a strength in Jingzhou. If they want to get more, they naturally have to see how my attitude is... So I met Lu Zijing a few days ago, but didn't see Chen Changwen... Do you know why?"

『Hmm…』 Cai Yan hesitated for a moment, 『Is it because...me?

Fei Qian laughed and said, "That's right. He brought you imperial edicts and rewards, but there was no Yueying's... But they didn't expect that as long as you teach this kid with all your heart, Yueying will definitely respect you...so...hehe...'

Huang Yueying tsk and said, "It's really complicated..."

『Haha, this is the heart of the people...』 Fei Qian raised his chin slightly and pointed at Fei Zhen who was walking back in front of him, saying, "Look, if you follow this naughty child, he will feel very safe, so he ran without any scruples... Now that you are back here, even if there are other guards, he will feel a little unsafe, so he will naturally come back... This kid is still young now and still feels safest around his parents. When he is half old, he will feel very annoyed and restrained by his parents, and he wishes he can hide away every day...』

"A naughty child will change his mind and nature at any time, and now, there are so many other people around us..." Fei Qian sighed slightly, "How could it be not complicated?"

『Husband...ah...』 Huang Yueying leaned against Fei Qian, sighed, and then remembered Jingzhou again, and couldn't help but say, 『Then Jingzhou, Jingzhou is really... irreversible?"

Fei Qian shook his head slowly and said, "This is a matter of time sooner or later..." It is true that Jingzhou finally fell into a divided state in history. The entire country collapsed. Can the place be safe?

『Sometimes, it is not something that can stop if an individual wants to stop..." Fei Qian said, 『It's like us...If we say we don't want to continue moving forward and then give it to others... Even if this person is willing to let us go, what about the rest? Will we change it to obey this person's order? Then what will this person do if he needs to convince the public? So, whether it is us, Cao and Sun families, or Liu Jingzhou... to this day, it is no longer a matter of one or two people, but a group of people...』

『So…』 Fei turned his head and looked at Huang Yueying, then turned his head and looked at Cai Yan, 『Do you understand now?"

Huang Yueying curled her lips and said, "I understand... I thought you really wanted to take us out for an outing today, but...hey!" Huang Yueying shook Fei Qian's hand away and then reached out to Cai Yan, "Dr. Cai, let's not pay attention to this guy. It's true that we even have to plot against us when we come out to play... Let's go and ignore him...

Fei Qian let go of Cai Yan's hand, nodded slightly, then smiled, watching Huang Yueying and Cai Yan holding hands, facing Fei Zhen running towards him, and then two big and one small said something, so they held hands and headed towards the stream next to them...

Fei Qian smiled, then turned to look in the direction of Jingzhou in the south, and the smile on his face remained. I guess Chen Qun and Lu Su must have had a confrontation in the past two days. Anyway, this matter is so urgent that it is Cao Sun. Fei Qian is not anxious at all, and those who are not anxious often have more initiatives...

…(^.^)YYa!!…

In the fourth year of Taixing, it was late January.

Another group of people also began to get anxious...

The Central Plains will gradually enter a beautiful season with blue sky and green trees, but deep in the desert, there is still a scene of dry winter with dry grass and shabby trees and chilly haze.

The cold wind from the extreme north area stays and does not leave. Although it is not as cruel and rampant as in the cold winter, it still makes people dare not provoke it easily.

In this desolate place where you can't see the end, the cold wind whistled, lowered the grass, slashed the trees, rolled the grass and dust, and kept shouting. The bleak sunlight resided in the miserable sky, as if it had been forced by the cold wind for more than a dozen times.

The remaining snow is sometimes swept up by the wind, and as the wind tightens, it loosens and changes the position. The lead-gray clouds are driven unwillingly and move slowly.

The dark clouds in the distance are connected to the horizon, and it is impossible to tell where the sky is, where the earth is, and where the direction you can go...

This is the land of Dingling, near Lake Baikal.

"Dingling" was originally the sound of a blacksmith, and it was the ironsmith of the Xiongnu. Then the Xianbei called these people the Chile people. Because these Dingling people were used to using vehicles with large wheels, they were also called high cars.

In history, during the Three Kingdoms period, the Dingling tribe once again split greatly, and the weather may have some decisive factors.

"Oh..." A Ding Ling man held a handful of dead grass that had just been pulled out from outside and placed it in front of him. "If it were in previous years, it should be the new grass growing now, but...you see, this grass root...

The people sitting in the big tent were all heads of Ding Ling. The Ding Ling tribe is still in the ancient tribal council model.

『…』 Everyone’s eyes focused on the dead grass.

Although everyone here is the leader, each of them is very familiar with the grassland. They don’t even need to take it close to the front and take a closer look. But looking at the dilapidated grass leaves and the black and rotten grass roots, they know that even if the weather gets warmer, the grass will not grow again because the roots are rotten.

Wild grasses are usually perennial. As long as the roots are still there, even if the wildfire is burned out, they will grow again the next year. However, once the grass roots rot, there is no help.

After a moment of silence, everyone couldn't help but start to express their opinions.

To survive in the desert, one must have water sources and the other must have grasslands. Cattle and sheep are like crops of nomadic peoples. Year after year, these are the necessary conditions for them to survive. Now, the water sources are still there, but if the grasslands are gone or reduced, it will be a disaster.

The word "migration" pops up in many people's minds, but even if they are traveling in later generations, it is not so easy to move home once, let alone migrate with their families?

What's more, many good pastures in the south are in the hands of the Xianbei people...

The pasture is like the home of the Chinese farming nation. No one will easily give up his home and give up the place where he relies on to others. Therefore, after the word "migration" pops up, another terrible idea pops up suddenly!

In history, the Xianbei declined for a long time. It was not until the rise of the Tuoba clan and formed the Rouran tribe that the Xianbei gradually withdrew from the stage of history, but now...

"Is what the Han people said...really?" someone whispered.

Ding Ling and the Han Dynasty were not completely isolated. As early as the Qin and Han dynasties, Ding Ling and several other ethnic groups were unable to withstand the plunder and cruel oppression of the Huns.

In the second year of Emperor Xuan of the Western Han Dynasty, Ding Ling and Wuhuan attacked the Huns and severely attacked the Huns.

In the second year of Yuanhe of Emperor Zhangdi of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Dingling and the Xianbei, all ethnic groups in the Western Regions, defeated the Northern Xiongnu and forced the Northern Xiongnu to move westward.

So, now, I just changed my goal.

『It is said that the Wuhuan people…』 Someone on the left side of the tent spoke, 『I have cooperated with the Han people… In the northern part of Youzhou, there is a new, large grassland…』

"Wuhuan people..."

"The crowd is noisy..."

It immediately sparked a lot of discussion.

The Wuhuan people were somewhat similar to the Dingling people. They were both forced to resist under the oppression of the Huns, and then were also bullied by their former ally Xianbei again. Now the Wuhuan people took the lead seemed to have brought some new inspiration to the Dingling people. In an instant, a thought flashed through the mind of the Dingling people. Could it be that the scene of the Huns who had joined forces to expel them in the desert, and now after changing the protagonist, will it be staged again?

Leader Ding Ling, sitting in the top leader, was silent and did not speak easily, not because Leader Ding Ling was disdainful of the current situation or because he did not take the current changes seriously, but because he discovered a very interesting problem, that is, the performance of the Han people was very different after more than ten years ago, or a few years ago...

Almost all the nomadic peoples in the desert are the consensus of Han people. In the concepts in the minds of nomadic people, a large number of people is equivalent to combat effectiveness, so a large number of tribes are generally not easy to mess with. Because the people in the Qin Dynasty were warlike, the Han Dynasty, and even in the early Eastern Han Dynasty, people in the desert were somewhat afraid of the Han people who dared to face the front and the most powerful nomadic people at that time.

It was not until the Five Barbarians invaded China, and even later, that the nomadic peoples in the desert gradually changed their concepts of the Chinese farming nation...

So what leader Ding Ling is now considering whether the Han people would have been raising their energy for many years, and then they would be ready to stew in the desert in a pot, including the Xianbei and other tribes?

A series of questions circling around the mind of leader Ding Ling like a lantern. Often, before one question reaches a conclusion, another question follows one after another, and there are inextricable connections between these questions. Every possible answer to each question will involve the final result of another or several questions.

This is really too complicated!

Even though Leader Ding Ling frowned and thought hard, he could not clear the fog in front of him to peek at the truth hidden behind the problem. He was completely trapped in thinking.

Seeing that the leader did not speak, the rest of the people in the tent gradually stopped and focused their attention on the leader.

Leader Ding Ling looked around for a while, was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "First of all, we must solve the problem in front of us... and the most important problem. We need a new and good pasture..."

"right!"

『Yes!』

Everyone agreed that this was indeed the most critical issue in front of us and the most urgent problem that needed to be solved.

Leader Ding Ling said slowly: "Only by ensuring that our own tribe members are safe and strong, we can consider further things. Between the Han and Xianbei people... don't draw conclusions immediately... However, we can send people to "borrow" a piece of grassland with the Xianbei people..."

"Borrow?" Some people understand a little, but some people still don't understand it.

Leader Ding Ling continued: "If the Xianbei people are willing to borrow, it is naturally the best. Is it unwilling to borrow..."

"We will use the matter of joining forces with the Han people to coerce him. If we don't borrow it, we will hit him!" A man in the tent clapped his hands and said.

『Wrong!』 Leader Ding Ling smiled and said, 『Is it necessary to send troops to "borrow" first... Will your pasture be willing to lend it to others in just a few words? So I will fight one first, and then send someone to say it is "borrow"...』

"Oh..." Everyone suddenly realized and praised each other, indicating that the leader thought of Zhouquan.

"If...I mean if, the Xianbei people don't want to "borrow" and then send troops to come..." a voice asked.

Leader Ding Ling said: "Then let's go back. Anyway, it will take at least two or three months to go, so the pasture here should have grown a little... and if the Xianbei people are willing to "borrow"... haha...

『That pasture is ours!』
Chapter completed!
