Chapter 10: The Hidden Treasures of Fubo (I)

Everyone was very happy. As the saying goes, when one person achieves success, even the chickens and dogs rise to the occasion. With the master’s promotion, the head of the household naturally also benefits. However, upon hearing this news, the old lady did not show a smile. Instead, she sat dazed on the stone stool, and after a long while, she let out a deep sigh and, leaning on her dragon-headed cane, unsteadily walked into the room

This silence further heightened Li Ru's curiosity about him

After returning from the Qiang tribe, Dong Zhuo hurriedly set off for Hedong with his trusted aides, including Li Ru and Dong Min

Thus, Lvyi became Dong Fei's maidservant

It is already quite good; at least my brother-in-law has started to pay attention to me. In the future, if anything happens, he will definitely think of me

This statement, if directed at a child under the age of seven, would undoubtedly be as incomprehensible as a book written in an alien language

The content contained within that piece, which is neither quite poetry nor quite prose, held an explosive significance for the people of that time. Since Emperor Wu of Han elevated Confucianism to a position of supremacy, although it did not manifest in the same overt manner as in later times, in the eyes of the public, Confucian thought became synonymous with the sacred, and it was absolutely impermissible for anyone to easily profane it

People at home and in the library feared him even more, to the point that they spoke in a timid manner. Dong Fei knew that in the eyes of these individuals, his reputation as a reincarnated monster was likely solidified. However, it mattered little; life would go on as it should. In his previous life as a forest ranger, wasn't he always alone when patrolling the mountains and forests?

The Dong family allowed Lvy to serve Dong Fei, which also sent a signal of reconciliation to him. After all, although the Dong family did not believe in any monsters, Dong Fei's bravery had left a deep impression on her. At just under seven years old, if this ugly boy were to reach adulthood, how many heroes in the world would be his match

After the incident at the training ground, Dong Yi returned to his usual life

Dong Fei grabbed a sweat towel from the weapon rack, wiped the sweat from his forehead, picked up his clothes, and walked out of the training ground

Lü Yi followed behind Dong Fei, observing the figure of this little master whom the entire family feared.

Regarding the arrival of Lvy, Dong Fei specifically consulted his grandmother

Upon hearing Dong Fei's question, Lu Yi timidly replied: "Young Master, the old lady is looking for you"

The news of Dong Zhuo's promotion to the Governor of Hedong and the message from the bookkeeper quickly spread throughout the Dong family

Without being in the Three Kingdoms period, you will never be able to understand the thoughts of the people at that time

Dong Fei had several times wished to emulate the protagonists of those time-travel novels. First, he would engage in grandiloquent speeches, and then with a single phrase, "Do you not see? The world is about to fall into chaos, and the Han dynasty is destined to perish," he would cause the other party to immediately bow down at his feet, proclaiming him a wise lord. Having lived in this era for quite some time, Dong Fei was well aware of the thoughts of the people of this time. Even his father, who might later disrupt the governance, at this moment was entirely devoted to the Han dynasty. Even though Li Ru was quite rebellious, Dong Fei did not dare to take the risk.

A few days later, Dong Zhuo took Niu Fu to the Qiang tribe. After reading the book, Dong Li practiced martial arts alone in the training ground.

Born into the Qiang ethnic group, Dong Shi favored those who were brave and strong, showing little concern for appearances. Otherwise, she would not have married Dong Zhuo back in the day

Dong Zhuo immediately announced the arrangements of the court, and then took Niu Fu to the gathering place of the Qiang people, where they stayed for more than thirty days

Dong Fei still gets up early every day to build his strength and practice martial arts. The old lady has hired several teachers for him to teach him reading and writing. During this time, Li Ru also visited twice, but the two of them sat face to face for half a day without speaking a word

It does not matter; fear is fear. At least it can make this little girl understand who her master is, allowing her to adopt a proper attitude

It is possible for Dong Fei to understand, and the old lady also believes that A Chou can understand. Not every child possesses the insight of A Chou. Since A Chou was able to articulate those words that day, it is sufficient to demonstrate that this child must not be regarded as an ordinary person

Green Ripple, is there something you need?

This young girl is a maid assigned to Dong Fei by the Dong family, not yet twelve years old, and hails from Lintao. Due to her impoverished background, she entered the Dong household at a young age with her mother. Now, her mother has passed away, leaving only Lu Yi to live here.

Lü Yi is a very intelligent and clever young girl, highly favored by the Dong family

Lü Yi is not yet twelve years old, but her mind has already matured

He is not yet seven years old, but he appears more robust and sturdy than those who are twelve or thirteen. His skin has a healthy bronze hue, and the muscles on his body, while well-defined, do not look intimidating; rather, they convey a gentle impression. However, within that gentleness lies a sense of explosive strength. If it were not for his rather unattractive appearance, he would surely attract many girls

However, it is evident that Lvy does not enjoy following Dong Fei and even harbors some fear towards him

However, Dong Fei's song is precisely a desecration of Confucianism

At this moment, a little girl, approximately eight or nine years old, walked in from outside the training ground. She was dressed in a long emerald green skirt, adorned in the attire of a maid. She stood somewhat timidly by the edge of the training ground, biting her lip, wanting to speak.

Regarding the conversation between Dong Fei and the old lady, no one in the Dong family is aware of it, and of course, it will not be recorded in history.

***

Dong Zhuo did not notice that when he left Lintao, there was an additional person at home, a person who always stood beside Dong Fei

Grandmother said: "Since you were born into the Dong family, regardless of whether you like your father or not, the traces of the Dong family are imprinted in your very bones, and you cannot escape it. Given this, you should maintain good relations with your family. Your mother is trying to reach out to you; if you do not accept her goodwill, you will surely offend her, making your future days even more difficult. Accept that girl, and then go pay your respects to your mother... Ah Chou, everything has its limits; being stubborn and trying to show off will ultimately lead to a dismal end."

Dong Fei was aware that on that day, in the training ground, his wild temperament had erupted, and singing a brief tune had already attracted Li Ru's attention

Fortunately, most of those who heard this song in the training ground at that time have since passed away. Dong Huang remains dazed and foolish to this day, and it is likely that he will not regain his senses anytime soon. As for Li Ru, a figure who is even mentioned in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he is certainly not a person who adheres rigidly to conventions or follows rules blindly. His visit to Dong Fei signifies that there is something in that song that attracts him.

The feeling of loneliness is not frightening; what is frightening is your fear of it

A few days later, the court's envoy arrived with great enthusiasm and left in high spirits

Niu Fu remained in Lintao; the old lady and Dong Fei also stayed in Lintao, and both the Dong family and Dong Yuan remained in Lintao

Dong Fei comforted himself for a moment, then picked up the book and began to study.

Following closely behind Dong Fei, her charming face flushed red, and her heart raced wildly like a startled deer

Although the young master appears fierce, he is not as terrifying as his family claims. On the contrary, he is quite amiable towards others, even more so than those stewards who often wield their authority with intimidation. For some reason, Lvy recalled the words the lady had spoken to her that day

Thus, he had no choice but to respond with silence
