Did Little White have the ability to throw Jiang Pengji off the horse?
Reality proved that it had the heart but not the guts.
Animals' senses were far stronger than humans'. The more intelligent an animal was, the stronger it was.
When ordinary people faced Jiang Pengji's aura, they would only feel that this person's aura was as tall as 2.8 meters. She was dignified and unfathomable. But in the eyes of these animals, it was a naked threat, as if they had met their most terrifying natural enemy.
Not to mention Little White, a horse that grew up on a horse farm, even a wild horse would involuntarily be afraid when it met Jiang Pengji.
Why did Jiang Pengji like Feng Jin's Changsheng so much?
Because when children are ignorant, they are as sensitive as animals. Changsheng was not afraid of her, but was close to her. Of course she liked it.
Similarly, Little White was so obedient, she could not dislike it.
Little White knew that a wise man submits to circumstances. It ran fast and steadily, and did not make any mistakes in its commands.
Jiang Pengji rode it to hunt. She thought it would be frightened by the prey, but it proved that it was not timid. Small prey occasionally jumped out of the bushes, but it was calm and composed. Its endurance, running speed, and posture … all these qualities did not disappoint its bloodline.
Jiang Pengji rode on Little White's back, holding White's reins in her hand.
While hunting, she walked White to let it have some fresh air.
It stayed in the stable all day, and White was pregnant. If it did not go out to get some fresh air, who could control it if it got angry?
After running one round, Little White's performance was satisfactory. Jiang Pengji allowed it to stay in the VIP stable of her White family.
Jiang Pengji returned with a full load of prey. It was the season when the prey was plump, and barbecued had a special taste.
However …
"White is pregnant. Keep an eye on it." She instructed the stableman who took care of White, "If Little White is restless, separate them."
The stableman nodded and bowed, hurriedly agreeing.
White was reluctantly led back to the stable by the stableman. Along the way, it looked back three times, making Jiang Pengji feel extremely guilty.
This was a small episode. Jiang Pengji told Li Yun and the rest about it as an interesting story.
The construction of Maolin District, Chengan District, and Jiaoping District was still in full swing. Because they had absorbed a large number of refugees and escaped members of the Tsing Yi Army and the Red Lotus Group in the past six months, in addition to the prisoners of war that they had previously captured, there was no shortage of people in all aspects of construction. Everyone had survived the busiest period, and the rest of the matters could be handled according to the regulations. Qiguan Rang and the rest could finally take a break from their busy schedule and slightly relax.
After settling the matters in each district, the few of them sneaked back to Xiangyang District for two days.
Liyun was originally busy in Maolin district. Later on, it was decided that Chengan district would be used as a trial district for farming. He was transferred to Chengan district to help out. This fellow is extremely talented in farming. In the past half a year, the reclamation and distribution of wasteland has been completed.
Hearing that Da Bai was pregnant, and that the stallion was an excellent warhorse with half of the Shalan Nation's Ferghana horse bloodline, he couldn't help but be tempted.
"Master …"
Jiang Pengji flipped the roasted meat and asked, "What's wrong?"
"If, if Great White gives birth, can I reward the foal it gives birth to?"
Just as Li Yun opened his mouth, a sharp gaze focused on him.
Which man doesn't love horses?
Da Bai's quality is obvious. The stallion is a valiant warhorse with the bloodline of the Ferghana horse. How bad can the offspring of the two be?
For a military general, if he can obtain a warhorse that is full of spirituality, of excellent quality, and is connected to his heart, it will be like adding wings to a tiger on the battlefield. It is hard to find even with money. The moment Liyun opened his mouth, he reserved a good horse with great potential in advance.
He hated himself for not speaking up earlier. Li Yun actually snatched it first.
Jiang Pengji smiled and said, "Alright, if you like it, you can take it away."
"Thank you, Master!"
Li Yun's cheeks were flushed with joy. It was unknown whether it was because he drank too much or because he was too happy.
A family of people roasting meat in the government office. The scene was too beautiful, and the style was too strange.
It was Yang Si's first time in Xiangyang District. It was also his first time participating in a gathering of this nature.
Yes, it was also his first time using the glass grill that was hard to find outside to roast meat. He felt that the value of every piece of meat was elevated.
He squinted his eyes and swept his gaze across Jiang Pengji's subordinates. He frowned slightly.
Logically speaking, the northern borderline's situation was precarious. Why were these people not the least bit nervous? Instead, they ate the roasted meat with gusto?
Especially Feng Zhen, who was dressed in old clothes and had drunk so much that his eyes were misty. It was as if his bones had gone soft. He leaned against Wei Ci.
Wei Ci sighed. It was not good to push Feng Zhen away.
When the roasted meat was almost finished, Qiguan Rang and the others looked at each other. Then, Feng Jin was pushed out.
He bowed and said, "Master, according to the news from Chongzhou, the northern borderline has already prepared their troops. How should we deal with them?"
The few strategists returned from the other three districts not only to eat this roasted meat, but also to discuss countermeasures.
Jiang Pengji chewed the meat in her mouth a few times and swallowed it.
She said rather straightforwardly, "Different situations call for different measures. What else can we do?"
Everyone was speechless.
Feng Jin sighed and could not help but say intimately, "Master, don't joke with me. I'm being serious."
"I'm being serious too. We're having a gathering to eat roasted meat. What's the use of talking about such annoying matters?"
Jiang Pengji said nonchalantly.
Yang Si and Feng Zhen subconsciously frowned.
So unreliable?
Wei Ci smiled and tried to smooth things over. "Master, you have a countermeasure in mind. It's indeed not suitable to do it at this gathering and dampen everyone's spirits."
Feng Jin secretly glanced at Wei Ci. His expression was natural, as if Jiang Pengji really had a countermeasure.
Jiang Pengji said, "I'm waiting for the news. If the news is true, everyone will have a good time this year. There's no need to worry about the threat from the northern borderline. There's no need for them to find trouble with us next year. In two years, we'll take the initiative to find trouble with the northern borderline! It's important to eat and drink and enjoy ourselves to the fullest. "
Yang Si secretly glanced at Wei Ci. He had a feeling that Wei Ci and his master had reached an unspeakable tacit understanding.
"What news is District Magistrate Liu waiting for?"
Yang Si had not pledged allegiance, so he addressed Jiang Pengji differently from others.
"News from the racecourse in the northern borderline." As soon as Jiang Pengji's voice fell, a messenger came in from outside. He half-knelt on the ground and raised a bamboo slip with both hands as a token. She smiled. There was not a hint of anger on her face. She said, "I'll go take a look. Is it good news or bad news?"
Opening it, the contents of the letter made her lips curl up.
Wei Ci asked, "Is it good or bad?"
"Of course it's good," Jiang Pengji said. "Now, the northern borderline will not be able to jump around."
It was true that the butterfly effect had changed many things, but some symbolic events still happened as promised.
Shalan was thousands of miles away from the northern borderline and even further away from the hinterland of the Central Plains. They chose the best Ferghana horses from their country to sell to the northern borderline. How could they have known that these horses would be infected with a horse plague during the transportation? The horse plague had an incubation period. A few horses died along the way, but the horse dealers did not notice. They just thought that the horses were not used to the foreign environment. How could they have known that they had been infected?
