Fang Ruojiao is someone who has been here before, so he naturally knows the shyness and shyness unique to young girls.
Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, she guessed what Qi Xiaotong was thinking.
My daughter's family has a low reputation, so they need to lay down corresponding steps. Only in this way will the situation not appear embarrassing.
As for what kind of steps to use, Fang Ruojiao has already thought about it.
After deciding, she quietly walked towards Hong Tao's tent.
As soon as she got closer, she noticed a strange noise inside. Listen carefully, but it's Hong Tao talking to someone.
In fact, Qi Xiaotong also sensed the approach of the outsider, so she immediately winked at Hong Tao.
However, the man was just like a lump of wood, not realizing his intentions at all, and was still boasting.
"Why are you leaving in such a hurry? It's better to stay for a day or two longer..."
"Or, give up the idea of returning to Great Britain and come back with me instead..."
Shh! !
Seeing that he still kept talking, Qi Xiaotong quickly put her slender finger to her mouth to signal to silence.
This time, Hong Tao really understood.
But, it's too late.
Because, Fang Ruojiao's voice floated in from outside the tent.
"Tao'er, there are distinguished guests coming from afar, why don't you report them?"
"Look back and see how I will punish you!"
ah! ah!
Why did the foster mother suddenly arrive?
Unexpectedly, there was not even a message sent!
Surprised, he quickly shut his mouth, feeling a little at a loss.
Qi Xiaotong has repeatedly emphasized that she came in secret this time, so she would not show up if she could.
Besides, she didn't want to show up in such an awkward manner. If she didn't do it right, she would be misunderstood.
But now that the exposure is imminent, how should we deal with it?
Xiaotong thought for a moment and decided to run away immediately, leaving Fang Ruojiao to miss.
However, what neither of them expected was that Mrs. Qi did not follow the trend and continued to talk outside the tent.
"As the saying goes, we are not a family unless we enter the same door. Do you think it is better to enter this door, or not to enter?"
"The Sword Comes"
"You know, I miss you so much day and night..."
These words were naturally meant for Qi Xiaotong.
It means that you have come all the way, how can you not meet me? We are a family. If we are divided like that, wouldn't it dampen our sincere heart?
Upon hearing this, Qi Xiaotong immediately stopped and hesitated.
Hong Tao, on the other hand, didn't dare to say anything. There were relatives on both sides, so he had to keep his mouth shut.
At this moment, Fang Ruojiao's voice floated in again, "I would like to arrange a warm 'family banquet'. I wonder if my dear wife will appreciate it?"
She said the word 'family banquet' in a rather serious tone, and her intention was naturally to remind Qi Xiaotong: Since you don't want to show up in public, how about we meet in private?
The word "appreciation" also expresses her sincerity.
This is all you have to say, how can you refuse?
Moreover, this method has avoided public appearances and can reunite the family, so why not?
Qi Xiaotong thought for a while and nodded to Hong Tao.
After this incident, she respected her future mother-in-law even more.
Having people be so considerate is really a blessing that comes from three lifetimes of cultivation.
However, she still planned to blame all the military achievements on Hong Tao, and she was not involved in the whole process.
My mother-in-law is so smart, she will definitely understand.
…
The night flew by.
Early the next morning, Qi Xiaotong embarked on the journey back to Great Britain.
At this point, her journey to Rakshasa Kingdom has come to an end.
In terms of harvest, overall it’s pretty good.
This trip not only helped Hong Tao obtain corresponding military honors, but also helped Dafeng Army 'recover' the land of Mobei, which was very satisfying both publicly and privately.
However, the bigger gain was that he had become closer to Qi Jing and his wife.
At last night's family dinner, both of them were extremely kind and treated themselves as if they were their own daughters. They were extremely caring.
In the excitement of drinking, Qi Jing also said freely: When the class teacher returns to the court, he will definitely make a statement to the court and ask for the title of his son Hong Tao based on his merits.
At the same time, he will also formally propose to the Qi family and report it to the clan government to pave the way for a happy marriage between the two.
He believed that the imperial court would happily agree to this matter for the sake of his and Hong Tao's contributions.
In other words, this matter is almost the same.
After that, it depends on how my father responds.
With his life-long friendship with Uncle Qi Jing, he would definitely not turn anyone away.
After chatting privately, Xiaotong also made relevant suggestions on the future of the Mobei area.
She said, if you don't govern the place you conquered, how is that different from the Tatars?
I think back then, their ancestors fought all the way to Europe, and basically had no political achievements except for robbing along the way.
It is precisely because of this that their foundation is so fragile.
If Dafeng wants to rule this place for a long time, it must promote development, otherwise, it will become a flash in the pan.
This view was highly recognized by Qi Jing.
Qi Xiaotong also thought about specific countermeasures as to how to manage the situation.
In this section, she specially introduced Qiongzhou’s current autonomy model. This method is eclectic and tailor-made, and is very suitable for the governance of this foreign land.
As for the current Australian model, she didn't mention it at all.
Because this area theoretically belongs to the territory of Da Feng Dynasty, so how can it be suitable for copying Da Hua?
In short, the conditions do not allow it.
In addition, she also said: When you are away, everything should be done easily, so this matter can be decided on the spot by cutting it off first and telling it later.
If we make plans after reporting to the court, I don’t know that we will have to wait until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse to be implemented.
Although Qi Jing was a scholar with a family background, he had never had any experience in governance.
So this is his attribute weakness. Since you are a layman, you cannot participate casually.
Matters such as governing the country should still be left to civilian officials, and military generals are not suitable.
So...who should I choose?
Xiaotong remonstrated again, saying: "This person is not difficult to find. Mr. Zhao Mingyu is just right."
He not only served as a capital official, but also served as the local chief minister of the ruling party. He has extremely rich governance experience. If he were to govern Mobei, nothing would go wrong.
Lao Zhao is now mainly responsible for the maintenance of supply lines, so he did not see anyone else during the Battle of Tianwang Mountain.
Now that the overall situation has been decided, his position has become idle, which is a good time to transfer appointments.
Qi Jing thought for a while and agreed to the suggestion.
In the near future, he will personally lead the army back to the court, while Zhao Mingyu will stay in Mobei to regent and develop.
As for whether there will be changes in the future, it depends on the attitude of the court.
