Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1949 Inside and outside the road, allusions inside and outside

Taixing three years.

winter.

As the twelfth lunar month approaches, Fei Qian in Chang'an has gradually entered a new stage of strategic layout.

Regarding how to deal with the so-called "orthodox" regime in Xu County, Fei Qian has also discussed with Pang Tong, Xun You and others. The opinions of everyone are generally the same. It is equivalent to blocking all kinds of Qiang and Hu people in the north, and there are no foreign enemies in the Central Plains of Shandong, so you can save money calmly. It will not make up the gap with Feiqian within two or three years, but if it is ten years or longer , then it is hard to say.

Fei Qian did not express any specific attitude towards these judgments. After all, the history at this stage has changed a lot. Like most people in the Han Dynasty, Fei Qian is not clear about the future development. Although he said that he has some experience from later generations However, it does not mean that these experiences can be used in the Han Dynasty, and there are still some problems of acclimatization.

Historically, since Cao Cao annexed Yuan Shao, he has been caught in internal strife. It can even be said that from the very beginning, Cao Cao's internal disputes have not been quelled. The original Shandong bureaucrats have their own selfishness, and it is of course one aspect to fight each other. The same is true of internal fighting insiders and outsiders fighting outsiders. In history, even the suppression of the Wuhuan rebellion, as well as the Qiang and semi-Qiang people such as Zhan Machao, required Cao Cao to dispatch himself.

After Cao Cao killed most of the Qingzhou soldiers in the Battle of Chibi, he could no longer hold down these small hills, and he never left Xudu until his whole life.

Although it is said that among the Three Kingdoms, Wei State has the most talents and a large number of officials, but from the beginning to the end, it was the Cao family Xiahou who fought on the front line, while the others enjoyed their success. After dying on the battlefield, the rest are naturally some brain damage.

So in fact, the key points of Xu County's regime are the Cao family and the Xiahou family.The rest is really not enough.

Even the Sima family who seized the Cao's regime in the later period of history was accurate in quelling the civil strife. Even attacking his own Sima can be said to be cunning and tough, but when encountering foreign enemies...

Of course, even if the influence of the Little Ice Age is taken into account, and the loss of the Central Plains during the Three Kingdoms period is deducted, the descendants of the Sima family are obviously worse than the descendants of the Cao family. From the moment he fled to the south, China has been a fighter jet among the garbage. Although it looks good and keeps its clothes, it is essentially a garbage...

The only problem that Fei Qian is worried about now is the traffic problem.

In the traditional concept of Han people, there is only Longyou outside Guanzhong, and Bingzhou in the north is also barren. Feiqian only has Guanzhong and Sichuan and Shu, Hanzhong can only be regarded as half of it, and Shandong Central Plains , are almost all large counties in the traditional sense, with a large population and dense resources.

So although Feiqian is now a strong military force, there are still some people, especially the Shandong gentry, who think that Feiqian cannot last long. After all, no matter what they do, they need the support of the population. Without a sufficient population, Feiqian is very It may be a flash in the pan, and the good times don't last long.

Therefore, if Feiqian wants to penetrate the Western Regions and control Jiaozhou in the south, it must first solve the traffic problem.

However, before solving the traffic problem, the profit problem must be solved.

When Feiqian was in the North, why the road was paved and repaired so quickly was because Feiqian linked the road and interests in one place. Merchants needed better roads to transport goods, and gentry needed to repair roads to gain fame. Now, the road that was originally deserted and semi-paralyzed was quickly repaired and reinforced.

But now, the two major arteries that Fei Qian wants to open extend to the territory that did not belong to the Han Dynasty originally. Well, strictly speaking, this is not the case, because only the Han Dynasty really opened up the four directions of east, west, north, south, and later dynasties, Basically, only the Western Regions were maintained. As for the three regions of Jiaozhi, Beimo, and Liaodong, or only one could be preserved, and some were simply lost, even the Western Regions could not be preserved.

Speaking of Liaodong alone, as early as the time of Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty, Lu Wan, the king of Yan, betrayed the Han Dynasty and went to the Huns to flee for his life. Wei Man also went there, and brought more than a thousand people into the Korean peninsula.Afterwards, Weiman summoned the exiles from Qi and Yan during the Warring States period to overthrow the King Jun of Gojoseon, and took the capital of Gojoseon, Wangxiancheng, and became the King of Joseon.

After Weiman ascended the throne, he re-established the Korean court and imported the culture of the Central Plains, making the country of Korea stronger and stronger.Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty felt that Weiman Korea was a growing threat to the Han Dynasty, so he decided to launch an expedition to Korea.After two years, Weiman Dynasty was destroyed. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty divided Weiman Dynasty into four counties: Lelang County, Zhenfan County, Lintun County and Xuantu County, collectively known as Han Four County.

After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the establishment of prefectures and counties in the northern part of the Korean Peninsula changed.In the fifth year of Emperor Zhao's first Yuan Dynasty, he stopped going to the two counties of Lintun and Zhenfan, and merged into the two counties of Lelang and Xuantu.Lelang County is today's Pyongyang, North Korea, and it governs the tribes such as Yu and Woju; Xuantu County was originally in Huzu, and it is now Xianxing in North Korea. Later, due to the invasion of Koguryo, it was moved to the northwest of Goguryeo, which is now in the east of Liaoning. Jurisdiction over Goguryeo, Puyu and other clans.

In a sense, from the Qin Dynasty to the Han Dynasty, many people in the imperial court looked far away. If the land is not enough, expand outward, the population is insufficient, plunder outward, lack of resources, look outward, So the Han people once rushed out of the Central Plains, out of their comfort zone, and went to explore a deeper and wider world.

But unfortunately, the corruption of the central court in the Han Dynasty and the annexation of a large number of land by the gentry landlords caused internal problems, interrupted the process of exploring the outside world, and stopped China's outward steps...

In addition to the traffic problems outside the connection, there are also some problems with the connection inside Feiqian.

At this stage, Cao Cao is almost the same as Fei Qian. He can still only be counted as a grassroots team, a small group that belongs to the regional gentry. In addition, Cao Cao is a very suspicious person. Granted easily, the contradictions in it are not small, the Cao family and the Xiahou family are in a group, and the rest of the gentry from all over the country also stand in the same place according to the region.And is there something wrong with this group of Chinese people? They come in the same line, and Fei Qian is no exception here.

There are factional struggles on Cao Cao's side, and there are some signs of Fei Qian's here. The so-called "hometown association" seems to be gradually forming.

Because of the national policy of the Eastern Han Dynasty, [-]% of the children of the gentry are in the Central Plains, and [-]% of them are in Sanhe, namely Yuzhou in Henan, Jizhou in Hebei, and Sili in Hanoi.Strictly speaking, the Shanxi gentry's foundation is not very good. Although there are some famous families, they are still somewhat different from the Sanhe children.

The same is true for Feiqian's side. Those from Guanzhong, Chuanshu, Hedong, and Jingxiang are also a mess. In addition, Feiqian consciously and constantly mixed sand into the gentry, absorbing a large number of poor families to serve as various Education envoys, bachelors of agriculture and engineering, etc., so that the phenomenon of grouping according to the region here in Feiqian is even more obvious than that in Cao Cao's side.

According to the feedback from the probes of the Mohists, there have been various regular and irregular gatherings around Chang'an, and the biggest one is naturally the Hanoi gang of the old fox Sima Hui.

Even Pang Tong naturally became the leader of the Jingxiang faction faintly, and he would attend this or that banquet from time to time, and Pang Tong seemed to be preparing for a new chin after eating so much.

And it is not easy to change the status quo.

Yuan Shao chose balance, just like a balance, adding some weight here and there, but in the end there was no problem at both ends of the balance, and the balance itself was overwhelmed.

Cao Cao is like a hanging scale. The Xiahou family of Cao is the weight. When the weight can't hold down the other gentry, naturally there will be a "咵啦", and the whole eating guy will break.

Sun Quan lost all the scales, trying to transform himself into the biggest weight and mix it with other weights, but Jiangdong's weights said that the lump of Sun's family is fake, it is made of cast iron, and it is easy to rust , and Jiangdong is made of bronze, which is the real authentic...

Therefore, he can neither be a balance nor a weight, let alone turn himself into a weight. Feiqian must consider a new way to deal with this relationship between the gentry.

The external roads are used to communicate with the Western Regions and Jiaozhi, or more far-reaching areas, while the internal passages are used to connect various noble families and common people.

Although Feiqian has been laying out scholars, farmers, commerce and industry for a long time, the piece of "Scholar" is too big and too hard to chew.What Fei Qian never expected was that the first sound of excavation to open up these roads, the falling pickaxe, was actually swung by Xu Xian first...

...(*–-)^...

Guo Jia has already arrived in Chang'an, but when he arrived in Chang'an, he declared that he was traveling all the way and was not feeling well, and then shrank in the post house, sleeping, eating and beating Doudou every day, assuming a posture of non-violence and non-cooperation.

Guo Jia's current state is similar to Xu Shu's state in Cao Ying in history, uh, wrong, in the novel. Just hide in the small building and become unified, regardless of the spring and autumn outside the window.

However, it is winter now.

Winter carried the cold wind from the north and eroded involuntarily. He kicked Autumn's ass and kicked it away.

So even if Guo Jia can ignore the age, he can't avoid winter, just like if Fei Qian really wants to find him, he can't avoid it.

"Feng Xiao is really idle! 』Fei Qian chuckled, and without waiting for Guo Jia to say some polite words of welcome, he walked straight forward.

Guo Jia looked at the gate of the small courtyard of the post house, then rolled his eyelids to look at Fei Qian, and cupped his hands with a look of decadence. In the eyes of those who know the etiquette of the gentry, such a casual move is enough to immediately stir up the fire of ignorance, thinking that Guo Jia's move is an insult...

Fei Qian smiled, but didn't say anything.

Fei Qian sat down, tidied up his robe a little, then said with a smile, "Do you blame me, son?" 』

Guo Jia was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but sit upright, looking at Fei Qian.

This is a very interesting sentence. On the surface, there seems to be no problem, and it even fits the current situation, but in fact this sentence is not that simple.

There are quite a few people who think that the use of various allusions among the gentry children is just a kind of show off by the gentry children, but in fact this is only a small part of the reason. It can even be said that only immature gentry children, Only then will they deliberately use some weird allusions to show off their talents. More often, this kind of allusion is a kind of temptation from both sides, a kind of speech that does not reveal embarrassment.

After all, when you see a beautiful woman, it is obviously different if you go up and say that Lao Tzu is tough, or that Guan Guan Jijiu is in Hezhizhou. Even if the other party refuses, it will not leave a rude image.

At the same time, many allusions have their background and historical development process. Being able to tell one, two, three of allusions must have some concepts and views on historical events. This ability will be more important among the children of the gentry, because Whether it is the ruler or the head of the family, they all hope that their children are people who know how to get thinking from books and integrate them, instead of just memorizing them by rote, and then hearing what others say, "I understand, I understand", "It's up to you to say" guy.

Therefore, it has become a very natural thing for the children of the gentry to use allusions on a daily basis.

What Fei Qian said sounded ordinary, like asking Guo Jia if he had imprisoned him here, whether Guo Jia would have any complaints, resentment, etc., but in fact, this sentence was not the first of Fei Qian’s creation. , but from the Spring and Autumn Period, it is what the King of Chu said when he said goodbye to Zhifu.

Guo Jia was silent for a long time, then sighed slightly, and said in a low voice: "Jin is not to be contested with." 』

Fei Qian couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

Zhifu, named Ziyu, also known as Xunyu, is a descendant of Xun Xi, a senior official of Jin Dynasty, and was the commander of the Chinese army during the time of Jin Daogong.During the Battle of Bi, Xun Yu was captured by the Chu army.

The King of Chu and Xun Yu had a total of five dialogues, the first of which was the one Fei Qian said.Later, Xun Yu won the respect of the king of Chu with his outstanding eloquence, and then the king of Chu finally sighed: "Jin is not invincible." 』

Fei Qian said the first sentence, while Guo Jia answered the last sentence, both are the same story, but have different meanings.Fei Qian used the original meaning to refer to Guo Jia, while Guo Jia used the exclamation to respond.

The reason why Xun Yu was able to go back was not due to the efforts of Xun Yu alone, but the common factors of his father's operation and the internal ministers of Chu State, and even related to the stunning beauty Xia Ji, so it was only ten years after the Battle of Bi. , only then has the hope of Xun Yu's return...

So what Fei Qian meant was obvious.

Then Guo Jia's emotion is that now "Jin" is divided into two, Taiyuan Shangdang belongs to Feiqian, and the part of Jizhou belongs to Cao Cao. Therefore, "Jin cannot be contested", and who can really be regarded as "Jin" in the end , or "not possible".

At the same time, Fei Qian also used this allusion to explain that Xun Yu only got a glimmer of hope of returning after ten years. What about you, Guo Jia?What does it mean to spend so much time in the post house if you can escape the first day of the junior high school but not the fifteenth day?
While refuting and replying to Fei Qian's words, Guo Jia also expressed that he didn't want to "compete", that's why he was in the post house, and didn't want to wade into the muddy water.

Fei Qian waved his hand, and did not continue to argue with Guo Jia about this allusion. Anyway, using this allusion is just an appetizer, and the more important thing is yet to come.Fei Qian signaled the guards to open a jar of wine they had brought, and then said: "A certain Wen Ruo Chang Wen, two people, went to the emperor, and used the policy of examination and verification. talent……"

Guo Jia was already drooling due to the aroma of the wine, but when he heard Fei Qian's words, he couldn't help opening his mouth slightly, and then the saliva almost flowed out, and he slipped back quickly, and subconsciously said, "Is that so?" ...'

Guo Jia glanced at Fei Qian quickly, and swallowed the second half of the sentence mixed with his saliva.

Fei Qian nodded and said, "As Feng Xiao said, Wen Ruo will definitely send "Xijing Kaozheng" to Chang'an! 』

Guo Jia still grunted, muttering in his heart, what did I say?I haven't said anything yet, okay?But on the other hand, I couldn't help admiring Fei Qian's political acumen, which grasped the root of the problem at once.

Fei Qian used the method of examination to select talents during this period of time, and Xun Yu followed suit on the one hand, but on the other hand, he also stumbled Fei Qian.When the so-called "Kaozheng" law was passed by the emperor of Xu County, and then the emperor issued an edict to send "Kaozheng" to various places, Xun Yu would naturally send a "Kaozheng" to Chang'an.

And this kind of "examination", of course, does not expect to get Fei Qian's permission, implement the examination system, and send talents to Xu County in Chang'an, but purely to add obstacles to Fei Qian's Chang'an exam. If the "examination is correct", then some gentry children who do not want to take the exam will be given an excuse, saying that Fei Qian does not abide by the rules and regulations of the court, so why ask the children to abide by Fei Qian's system?

If Fei Qian insists on taking the exam to select talents, it will conflict with the "examination" of the court. Even if Fei Qian does not allow the examiner to take the public examination, it cannot be avoided that the examiner will announce the so-called "examination" results in private , as one can imagine, there are bound to be big differences, causing even more confusion and trouble.

What is there to say in the future?

Go your own, uh, go the way of others, and then let others go no way...

That's probably what it means.

Guo Jia looked at Fei Qian curiously.

Fei Qian smiled, and pointed to the wine bowl in front of Guo Jia.

Guo Jia lowered his head and looked at the wine bowl.

In the wine bowl, the color of the wine was like amber, with a soft luster and a mouth-watering aroma.

This is a very good wine. It is brewed with corn and rice mixed as raw materials, and then added with some special things, which is called "Tea Mixiang".

Guo Jia's eyes rolled around, his expression changed suddenly, and then he suddenly looked up at Fei Qian, his somewhat spectating look turned into surprise, and finally turned into a bit of fear...
