Three Kingdoms

Killing a person often only takes a dozen seconds or even less, while giving birth to a person takes at least eight or nine months. Children born too early could basically not be fed under the medical conditions of the Han Dynasty. . Even full-term children often died young in the Han Dynasty, not to mention the production process with inadequate sterilization conditions. Many women's wounds failed to heal in time due to bleeding, infection and inflammation, and one died after another. someone here.

This time Yan was pregnant. Lu Bu was overjoyed, but also worried. After all, Lu Bu's wife and child both died during the birth process. The older one died after childbirth, and the younger one also didn't survive. One year...

Therefore, Lu Bu came to Fei Qian, hoping to use Fei Qian's medical team to protect Yan.

As a result, after Lu Bu arrived in Pingyang, he learned that Fei Qian had gone to Chang'an. Xun Chen conveyed his intention and asked Lu Bu to wait in Pingyang. As a result, Lu Bu couldn't sit still at all. He also felt that it was only a few days' journey from Pingyang to Chang'an, so he simply took Gao Shun and Wei Xu along with a dozen others. The guards came to Chang'an.

In total, it was only three or four days later than Cui Jun's messenger.

"What are you..." After meeting, Lu Bu discovered that Fei Qian was injured, and couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Pang Tong, who was sitting aside, explained on his behalf.

Fei Qian smiled and said: "Brother is very happy to have Linzi. This is a great joy. However, the younger brother is still injured and cannot offer a few glasses of wedding wine to my brother..." Although it is not clear whether it is a boy or a girl, even in later generations, Aren’t they all talking about men?

"Haha!" Lu Bu waved his hand and said blankly, "You can drink at any time! Don't mind it! It's just that there is a murderer who wants to assassinate Xiandi. Humph, how brave you are! Speaking of which, Xiandi's martial arts are not very good. , the guards around you still need to be strengthened..."

Huang Xu, standing behind Fei Qian, said with a gloomy face: "..."

Fei Qian laughed and understood that Lu Bu was just discussing the matter and had no intention of targeting Huang Xu, so he smiled and said: "What my brother said is true. I can write a handwritten letter and arrange for the doctor to go to Taiyuan to protect my wife, mother and son." Ankang..."

It would be meaningless to negotiate terms with Lu Bu on this matter, and it would also defeat Fei Qian's original intention of setting up a team of gynecologists. Unlike many gynecologists in the past, where men were employed concurrently, the obstetricians Wen Po and others who were specially set up specifically for Huang Yueying's delivery were mainly women. In the past two years, they not only delivered Huang Yueying's babies, but also some noble families around Pingyang in recent years. The children, and even some ordinary people who delivered babies, can be regarded as countless people alive, and they are quite famous.

In the past, such full-time midwives were usually found in aristocratic families and within the palace compound, specifically serving a few people. Now that Fei Qian has promoted them, they can serve many people who are not from aristocratic families, and they can be regarded as becoming A benevolent policy.

Seeing that Fei Qian was so happy, Lu Bu felt calm in his heart. He laughed and felt that he had inherited many favors from Fei Qian, and because of Yan's affairs, he would not be able to stay away for at least a period of time. He felt somewhat regretful and said: " Dear brother, have you ever found out who sent the assassin? If not, let me go to fight against him! It would be a good thing to vent this bad breath for my dear brother!"

Fei Qian pondered for a moment, then said with a smile: "Although the assassin was killed, the mastermind behind it has not been found out yet... When it is found out, I will inform my brother..."

After all, if Lu Bu is to use some means and methods, it would be safer for Fei Qian to do it himself, or it would be better to let Pang Tong do it. If Lu Bu really wants to go out, he will basically kill people, not to mention that the time has not yet come. Well, Fei Qian didn't want Lu Bu to directly mess up the plan, so he simply said he didn't know who the mastermind was.

Moreover, Fei Qian believes that the name Zheng Ming gave out is to a large extent just a transfer station. There are still people hiding behind this transfer station. But things like this cannot be rushed, and must be done little by little. The investigation continues without alerting the enemy. Otherwise, if the clues are lost, he will have to wait for the next clue to appear. Wouldn't he be in danger again?

Lu Bu scratched the beard on his chin, feeling a little helpless. This feeling of not being able to exert his strength has always been a problem that Lu Bu has no solution for.

At this time, Zao rushed back with only mud all over his body, and was stunned when he saw Lu Bu.

"Zijing, what's the matter?" Fei Qian asked, "Did the seeds sprout?" Although Fei Qian knew in his heart that the seeds would not sprout so quickly, he still couldn't help but want to ask when he saw Zaozhi.

"Uh..." Zao choked for a moment, then said dejectedly, "No..."

"...It's okay," Fei Qian said with a self-deprecating smile, "No rush, no rush, I'm just too impatient..."

Zao took out only one seed from his arms and said: "I asked a lot of old farmers for advice, and several of them suggested that hairy seeds like this need to be planted in the sun... Can... can this be sun-dried?"

"This..." Fei Qian also hesitated for a moment, unable to answer immediately. At this time, Fei Qian really misses Du Niang in future generations. As the saying goes, if you don’t decide on domestic affairs, ask Du Niang, and if you don’t decide on foreign affairs, ask the dog...

Sunbathing?

Don't you want to sunbathe?

Some headaches.

Lu Bu was a little curious on the side, and Pang Tong told Lu Bu roughly about the seed, which immediately aroused Lu Bu's curiosity even more. Xiang Zaoyang took the seed, put it in the palm of his hand, looked at it carefully, and said, "This Is this species worth so much effort?”

"It's worth it..." Fei Qian nodded and said, "Nowadays in China, if the weather is cold, the only way to resist it is with fur robes... But the price of fur robes is high, and it is not available to the common people in Guizhou. If there is such a thing, it can be used in large quantities. Plant and produce plush, which can be woven or braided. It can be used as daily clothing or as clothing to keep out the cold. How can we be careless in protecting the world?"

Lu Bu's eyes widened, and he suddenly came to his senses and said, "Could it be, could this be what my virtuous brother said...the thing in the far west?"

"Exactly." Fei Qian nodded and said, "All things are born with their own things. Although the Han Dynasty has a vast territory and rich resources, there are still some species that are not available...just like flax and huxiang. , I am afraid that our descendants will still not be able to feed on it... This skill is the foundation of the ages and the foundation of all generations... Alas, it is a pity that if Captain Bai is here, he can give some suggestions..."

"Captain Bai?" Lu Bu asked doubtfully, and then learned that Bai Que died at the hands of a horse thief in the Hexi Corridor. He was furious, "The thieves are disgusting! They should all be punished! It's okay if someone didn't know, but now he knows , how can we let these thieves continue to mess up my brother's affairs! If my brother can trust me, I will go to Hexi and kill these thieves for my brother!"

"...But Madam-in-law is pregnant, this..." Fei Qian said hesitantly.

"Yes, if she is pregnant, let her rest in Taiyuan..." Lu Bu said carelessly, "I am not pregnant, so it doesn't take much time to make the trip, and she will be back in three or four months, so it won't be a problem! "

Since Lu Bu said this, Fei Qian agreed. He could also see that Lu Bu had indeed been a little aggrieved for a while. If Lu Bu was allowed to vent his anger on those horse thieves, and the harm in Hexi could be eliminated, it would be the best of both worlds. things.

"Just use the words of an old farmer, let's do it!" Fei Qian turned to Zao Zhi and said, "Don't worry about Zijing, just go and try!" Since you choose to let others help, you have to give a certain amount of trust. Whether it is for Lu Bu or the old farmers under Zao Zhi, it is the same.

"Wei!" Zao Zhi bowed his hands in agreement, then turned around to look for Lu Bu, but he was still a little timid, "Marquis Wen... this, that seed... can you..."

"Oh, here you go..." Lu Bu quickly and carefully placed the seeds in Zao Zhi's hand.

Zao Zhi didn't waste any time. He excused himself and turned around to conduct the next experiment.

Lu Bu watched Zao Zhi go away and sighed for some reason.

"Since brother is willing to go to Hexi to kill the horse thieves..." Fei Qian said with a smile, "It just so happens that Longxi has sent two or three good horses over recently. If brother doesn't mind, how about you choose one?"

"What a good horse?" Lu Bu's eyes suddenly lit up.

Fei Qian laughed and wanted to clap his hands to signal, but the injury was injured. He couldn't help but grinned and walked out, saying: "That's right. I saw that the teeth of my brother's car, Red Rabbit, are getting longer. I'm afraid that the strength is also weakening. If you have one more A war horse can be replaced on the way..."

"Very good! Very good!" Lu Bu laughed loudly and said, "Zi Yuan is still thoughtful..."

Not long after, several people arrived at the horse farm outside Chang'an City.

Although the horse farm here is not as good as the natural horse farm in Longyou, it is still possible to raise some free-range war horses. At least the war horses cannot be allowed to stay in the stables for too long and lose the ability of the war horses.

Red Rabbit is the war horse Dong Zhuo gave to Lu Bu. However, although Dong Zhuo thought that Red Rabbit was a BMW, although he was a little reluctant to give it away when he gave it away, he was not completely reluctant. This shows that war horses like Red Rabbit are not unique in Dong Zhuo's heart and are rare... …

The reason why Red Rabbit became the most famous war horse among the Three Kingdoms and became the representative of all good horses. It can travel a thousand miles a day and eight hundred miles a night. The most important reason is probably due to the contribution of Mr. Luo. Large numbers. However, there are also records about red rabbits and horses in "Three Kingdoms". When Pei Songzhi annotated "Three Kingdoms: Biography of Cao Man", he said: There is Lu Bu among men, and there are red rabbits among horses. Mr. Luo's red rabbit and horse settings are mostly based on this.

But these notes written by Pei Songzhi may not be reliable...

Just like reading notes, what is written down may not be all what actually happened, but some are my own imagination and expansion of my thinking...

As for why there is the name Red Rabbit, it is because as early as China’s earliest book on horsemanship, the Horsemanship Sutra, it is recorded that the first step in horsemanship is to look at the horse’s head, because the head is a symbol of the breed, quality, and quality of the horse. Physical fitness and teeth are the most obvious external manifestations. Red rabbit literally means a red horse with a rabbit face.

As one of the famous war horses in Chinese history, although there is only a simple sentence in the official history, there is a good horse called Red Rabbit, but this Red Rabbit is not simple at all. Not only did Lu Bu kill Ding Yuan, but it even turned around In the hands of Guan Yu, he fought in the north and south until he was defeated in Maicheng. In the novel, Chitu traveled at least half of the Three Kingdoms.

However, just as heroes are most afraid of old age, and beauties are most afraid of old age, war horses will age in the same way. So how long this red rabbit horse has lived for over-age service is probably a big mystery in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. …

Let's not calculate the specific age of the Red Rabbit Horse. Let's just talk about one question. If Lu Bu and Guan Yu used the same war horse, maybe Guan Yu's defeat of Maicheng also had some credit for the Red Rabbit Horse.

After all, a war horse is different from an ordinary horse. It requires a strong body and abundant energy. Just like a human being, no matter how well it is maintained, its body will inevitably decline from the age of forty. It can be delayed, but it cannot be braked...

Therefore, Fei Qian always suspected that the red rabbit horse Cao Cao gave to Guan Yu was not actually Lu Bu's horse, but Cao Cao wanted to follow the horse with the same name to hint something to Guan Yu. Then Guan Erye pretended to be dumbfounded and probably used other things to repay the favor to Cao Cao.

When Lu Bu arrived at the racecourse, his eyes immediately widened. He was like a car lover from later generations who saw their favorite luxury car, especially when one of them would become his...

"This one is good...that one is also good..." Lu Bu suddenly had difficulty choosing, "What a good horse, what a good horse..."

Fei Qian smiled, then pointed with his hand and said, "Brother, what do you think of that red one?" Fei Qian was also pointing to a red war horse, but it was not as bright as the red rabbit, but darker. Red, like satin in the sunlight, shining with faint brilliance.

"Good horse! Good!" Lu Bu was full of praise.

"Then this is the one!" Fei Qian said decisively, and asked someone to lead the war horse out.

Fei Qian made a decision. Although Lu Bu was a little reluctant to let go of the other war horses, when he saw the dark red war horse in front of him, he liked it so much that he happily started to develop feelings for the new war horse. He took out some sugar-fried beans from the bag on the side of Chitu...

The red rabbit horse on the side snorted, purred and threw its hooves twice.

Lu Bu happily turned around and stuffed a handful into Chitu's mouth, and Chitu Ma calmed down a little.

"Brother, what do you want to name this horse?" Fei Qian asked.

"What's the name?" Lu Bu was stunned, thought for a moment, and then said, "Since it is also a red horse, let's call it Red Rabbit..."

"Ah?" Fei Qian was in a daze.

"It's so convenient!" Lu Bu stroked the horse's neck again and again and said, "In fact, the name is not important. The important thing is to let the horse get familiar with your voice. Like me, I don't even call you by name, I just whistle and you know it." I was looking for it, so I came here. It’s more useful than any name... Besides, ordinary soldiers can’t remember so many names. If it’s an emergency, the simpler, the better. As long as it’s Red Rabbit, it’s someone’s name. The war horse is brought here..."

Hearing this, Fei Qian couldn't help but sigh, "Oh...I see..."
