Chapter 503 Old Fox(2/2)

Tu Diji suddenly let out a long sigh.

He held the tea cup and looked at his eldest son who was still wearing the tribe's traditional wild boar skin coat. "I went back to change. Don't wear these anymore. Since the Central Plains are included and have been for so many years, you can stay in the Central Plains with peace of mind. You have to be proactive."

From now on, if you speak Han, wear Han, and wear Han rites, you can also go to Youzhou and ask a gentleman to change all your sons’ names to Han.”

"We people, don't think about going back, let alone keep remembering the old customs, learn from the Xianbei people, who conquered the Central Plains and occupied half of the world, so we didn't take the initiative to Chineseize them.

Back then, the royal family of the Northern Wei Dynasty still had eight major surnames, such as Changsun, etc., aren’t they all Han Chinese now? They can do it, why can’t we?

The nobles of the Central Plains Celestial Dynasty are not so good, so why do they always want to go back to the wilderness and become a savage?"

Agumi looked at his father and was stunned for a long time. "Can we also become Han people?"

"Remember, I'm old, but not crazy. Just pack up your things in the next few days, take your wives, concubines, and children with you, and move to Chang'an together. I'll buy you a big house in Chang'an."

"Why are you going to Chang'an?"

"Settling in Chang'an and becoming an official in the court have been arranged for you. First, go to Chang'an to become a special general in the imperial army. The older ones of yours will serve as servants in Yiwei, and the younger ones will go to the Imperial Academy to study. The suburbs of Chang'an have also been prepared for you.

With a manor, you can feel at ease in Chang'an..."

After a while, Miagu came back to his senses and asked, "Father, are you asking me to go to Chang'an to be a hostage?"

"Don't say it so harshly. Chang'an is the center of the world. What a rare opportunity it is to go to Chang'an to serve the emperor. Chang'an is a hundred times more prosperous than Youzhou. You are going to enjoy the blessings."

He looked at this tall and burly son, who was only twelve years old when Neifu moved westward. He has been with him for more than thirty years. Father and son have fought side by side for many years. This is a brave young man, but unfortunately he lacks a little wisdom.

He has been riding and shooting since childhood and has no time to study.

"Your brother was given the name Jinxing by Wu Shaobao, so I will rename you Li Jinnuo to keep my promise."

"Can you let the other brothers go?"

"Father, this is all for your own good. If you stay here, I'm afraid you'll get into trouble. Go to Chang'an and stay well. You'll be rich and prosperous for the rest of your life. Your children and grandchildren will also have a better future in the future."

"Don't worry, your other brothers will definitely come to Beijing one after another in the future."

"In two years, maybe I will go to Chang'an. When I die, maybe I will be buried in Zhongnan Mountain."

Miagu was greatly shocked. He had never expected that his father would have such an arrangement, and he did not recover for a while.
