Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2124 Well and Well

When I heard the familiar voice again, it seemed that nothing had changed, and time went back to that moment in the past, "Zi Yuan, are you all right?" 』

The Cao Cao in memory merged with the Cao Cao in front of him again.

Size, let’s not mention it like that, anyway, unless you wear inner heightening for Cao Cao, uh, that’s not enough, it must be 1.7 cm high heels, anyway, it’s [-] meters and [-] meters, and then absolutely don’t talk to Lu Bu Guan Yuzhang Fei and the others stood together, otherwise they would definitely reveal their secrets.

What about other changes? There are more wrinkles on the forehead and the corners of the eyes, and more gray hair on the temples on both sides, but the shrewd gaze in the eyes, the appearance of smiling but not smiling, makes people feel Still the same Cao Cao...

Cao Cao was also looking at Fei Qian.

Because of many years of fighting, Fei Qian's complexion was no longer the so-called fair complexion, and his face was also affected by some wind and frost. He lost a little bit of scholarly spirit, and a little bit more decisive to kill.

"I've seen Brother Mengde!The younger brother prepares autumn tea here, and the reception is simple. I also hope that brother Mengde will be han. 』 Fei Qian chuckled and bowed his hands in salute.

Cao Cao laughed loudly, "I came all the way from the mountain tour, and I happened to be thirsty since then, but Ziyuan knew me!" 』

After the two finished speaking, their eyes collided, and they laughed at the same time. They were both happy, like old friends who had been reunited for many years.

In just a few words, there are many meanings behind it.

In addition to the greetings at the beginning, Fei Qian first mentioned the autumn tea he had prepared, which meant that he already knew that Cao Cao would definitely come, so it was "specially prepared"; the second aspect was that the meeting would definitely happen It will not give Cao Cao any good conditions, it is "simple", the third aspect...

As for Cao Cao, it was even briefer, not only to fight back, but also to slightly belittle Fei Qian, and at the same time express his own attitude and position...

"Please! ’ Fei Qian gestured sideways.

"Please! 』Cao Cao squinted and smiled, also inviting.

Speaking of it, although Cao Cao lowered his figure, opened his mouth "Ziyuan" and closed his mouth "Xiandi", with a smile on his face, but in Fei Qian's view, Cao Cao still maintained a sense of majesty of a superior, It's like a teacher is facing a student, and a senior is facing a junior. Of course, in terms of age, Cao Cao is naturally much older than Fei Qian. There is nothing wrong with saying that he is a senior, but the problem is that in this world, Is it true that if you are older, you must have grasped the truth?

On the other hand, Cao Cao was obviously quite unhappy, if he hadn't failed to win Wancheng...

Thinking of this, Cao Cao also felt that Xia Houyuan's nickname was not for nothing. If Wancheng could be successfully conquered at that time, with the prosperous commerce and goods reserves in Wancheng, even if Cao Cao could not make a fortune from it, at least he would be able to persevere For a period of time, make up for the deficit and consumption.

It was because of being so short-tempered that when he played against Fei Qian, Jie Cai obviously lost a lot, so that Cao Cao had to come to Zhuyang now, otherwise it should be before Fei Qian went to Wancheng.

After Cao Cao sat down, he touched the Imperata mat under his buttocks, "Baihua Jian, Imperata Shuxi... Is there such a fine Imperata in Guanzhong?" 』

Fei Qian's eyes moved, and then he said: "Such things are not unusual, as the saying goes; "Lan Zhi changes but not fragrant, Quan Hui turns into Mao"..."

Cao Cao was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing, "Well said!well said! 』

Cao Cao smiled and patted the table lightly, beat the time, and sang loudly:
"...There is no reason for him, there is no harm in cultivating!

"Yu Yilan can be counted on, the Qiang has no strength but is strong.

"If you want to follow the vulgarity, you will stand out from the crowd.

"Jiao Zhuan is a slow-witted man, and he wants to fill his husband's curtain."

"Since doing it and moving on to it, how can Fang be able to do it?"
"While the prevailing customs follow the current, how can there be no change?"
"Lan Jiaolan is as good as here, but what about Jieche and Jiangli?"
"It's just so precious, it's so beautiful that it's beautiful..."

Fei Qian didn't express anything specifically, he just put the kettle on the fire and prepared to make tea.

This time, Cao Cao showed something different in his singing, but Fei Qian was not going to confront Cao Cao with his needlepoint. Cao Cao's helplessness and emotion towards fate...

Originally, when people get along with each other, the ebb and flow of arrogance is relative, not absolute.

When Fei Qian saw Cao Cao back then, he was trembling and did not dare to do anything, he couldn't even look directly at Cao Cao, because of the disparity in status between the two sides. Now, Cao Cao is singing on the sidelines, and Fei Qian is making tea calmly.It's not that Cao Cao's power and status have declined, but that Fei Qian has moved too fast.Perhaps it was because of this that Cao Cao was suddenly overwhelmed with emotion, and the sound of singing Qu Yuan's departure gradually rose, gurgling like thoughts tumbling, and then bursting one by one.

"Why is Ziyuan interested in tea?" ”Cao Cao tilted his head slightly, looked at Fei Qian, and said, “The joy of wine comes from the emperor.As the saying goes, frost will be eliminated in September, and fields will be cleaned in October.When friends drink wine, they say to kill the lamb.You and I reunited after a long absence, it's just tea, isn't it a bit bland? 』

"Tea was born in Jiamu.The tree is like a melon, the leaves are like a gardenia, the flowers are like a white rose, the fruit is like a palm, the stem is like a clove, and the root is like a walnut.If you only observe one of them, it is difficult to understand the truth.The upper one produces rotten rocks, the middle one produces oak soil, and the lower one produces loess. ’ Feiqian saw that the water in the kettle was gradually boiling, so he took the water, began to wash the tea set, and warmed the teacups. Tea.Now there is syrup, wine, and tea here, Brother Meng De can also get what he needs by himself...』

Cao Cao raised his head and smiled, "So, let's drink tea!" 』

The second round of confrontation, who wins and who loses, that is, everyone knows for themselves...

Drinking tea is still a habit brought by Fei Qian from later generations.

It is better to drink tea when talking about things, because there are people who persuade people to drink, but there are no people who persuade people to drink tea. .

It's like in the imperial capital, on the wine table, three cups down, the heavenly king and I are buddies, everything can be patted on the chest, just wrap it on the body, and then wake up with a serious face, "You are really, Can wine talk be taken seriously?Red envelope?I didn't see it, I drank so much yesterday, who knows where it went?You go and look for it yourself, anyway, it’s not here anymore...It’s really boring, don’t come here again...』

The boiling water infiltrated the tea leaves, and then saw the tea leaves stretch out a little bit.

The faint fragrance rippling in the nose, the slight warmth hovering in the fingertips.

"Please. 』

Fei Qian poured the tea soup into the jade cup, then put it on the wooden plate, and gestured for it.

Huang Xu was about to step forward, but was stopped by Xu Chu, "Come here." 』

Huang Xu glanced at it, then nodded.

Xu Chu stretched out his thick palms, then held the small wooden plate with both hands, and stepped forward.

Dian Wei stepped forward and stopped Xu Chu.

Dian Wei's stature was nearly a head taller than Xu Chu's, but Xu Chu was half a circle wider than Dian Wei's.

Fei Qian was somewhat curious about Dian Wei.Because the two sides met to express their frankness, neither of them wore heavy armor, but only wore leather armor. Dian Wei's leather armor obviously didn't fit well. I don't know who borrowed it. Anyway, it's a bit small. The leather armor is bulging out of the sturdy body, not only the muscles are bulging on the bare arms, but also many large and small scars can be seen.

Dian Wei didn't wear a helmet either, and his unkempt hair was casually tied into a big knot at the back of his head.On both sides of the rough face and cheeks were short black curly beards, which were slightly different from Zhang Fei's steel brushes. Under the furry eyebrows, a pair of tiger eyes were exposed, and they were firmly nailed to Xu Chu's body.

Under the sunlight, Dian Wei's pupils didn't seem to be black, but a little reddish brown, as if they were about to bleed at any time, which was very different.

Hmm, maybe Dian Wei should have some Evenki blood, or maybe...

Jie family?

In a sense, the Jie people could not become a real nation, because it was only a branch of the Xiongnu at that time. To a certain extent, it should be that the Xiongnu plundered from other places, most likely from Central Asia or the Northern Desert. Slave tribes who came here later became the offshoot of the Huns.

After all, Dian Wei's beard and hair are curly, and his pupils are brown, and his body is bigger than the average Han, so it is very likely that he is a member of the Jie tribe, or other Donghu tribe...

When Fei Qian was thinking, Xu Chu and Dian Wei had already matched each other.

In fact, the wooden plate is not too small, but in the hands of Xu Chu and Dian Wei, it looks extremely small and weak...

Two people, four hands, and eight fingers pinched the wooden plate, making the jade cup on the wooden plate tremble...

"Hi!Hugh broke the cup! ’ Fei Qian said.

"Only..." Xu Chu replied subconsciously, and then his expression changed.

Taking advantage of Xu Chu's distraction, Dian Wei almost dug his fingertips into the wooden tray, and grabbed it in his direction!
Yubei couldn't bear the pain and humiliation of being caught between two big men, so with tears in his stomach, he jumped down from the wooden plate recklessly!

Xu Chu had no choice but to release the wooden plate with his palms upside down, and then caught the jade cup...

"Okay..." Cao Cao also stopped him, "Hey, I have no tea to drink!" 』

Fei Qian smiled, and then asked Xu Chu to put the cup on the wooden tray in Dian Wei's hand, and then signaled to send the filtered tea soup over, or let Cao Cao drink it upside down.

Cao Cao looked at Xu Chu and smiled, "What a strong man!"I don't know where his native place is? 』

Xu Chu took a look at Fei Qian, and after seeing Fei Qian nodded, he cupped his hands and said, "Someone is from Qiao County!" 』

Fei Qian noticed that Cao Cao's beard was visibly shaking...

"If you talk about it, I still have to thank Miaocai..." Fei Qian chuckled, then asked Xu Chu to retreat, and motioned Cao Cao to drink tea, "Brother Meng De, please. 』

It's the third round, um, Fei Qian muttered to himself while drinking tea.

Nothing more than three things...

Tea has now been improved to the third generation. In the hands of diligent Chinese craftsmen, the method and technology of frying green tea are also constantly innovating. There are some prototypes of green tea in later generations. Because of the limited production area, it is drunk in Feiqian now The taste of the tea is still more of a burnt aroma, which is somewhat different from the bean aroma in the Jiangnan area.After all, tea in the Han Dynasty has just changed from all kinds of mush because of Fei Qian, and it is easier to accept burnt aroma than bean aroma.

There is no so-called friendship between countries, only interests, but between people.

Fei Qian put down his teacup, then looked at Cao Cao, and said slowly, "200,000 households. 』

Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and shook his head.Even if Cao Cao was able to control the entire Jingzhou, 200,000 households would almost evacuate one-third of Jingzhou, especially the four counties in Jingnan, some counties have a total population of less than [-] households...

Even when Cao Cao occupied Jingzhou North, the total population of Xiangyang was greatly reduced due to the previous war with Yuan Shu. If they could gather 200,000 households, it would be almost equivalent to evacuating Jingzhou North. Naturally, Cao Cao I don't want to.

In fact, in the northern part of Jingzhou, especially in the Xiangyang area, there are still many people from the Heluo Guanzhong area who fled to the Jingzhou area when Dong Zhuo was in turmoil.

When Dong Zhuo moved his capital, the number of people who forced Heluo to relocate was about 2 million. Later, because of the war in Heluo again, more people who were originally in this area moved to areas that were not affected by the war for the time being, that is, Jingzhou, and some went to Xuzhou, but unfortunately, these people still failed to escape the military disaster, and they were still more or less affected in history.

According to Fei Qian's preliminary calculations, during the overall period of Dong Zhuo's turmoil, about [-] households entered the Jingzhou area from the Heluo area, which was originally the most prosperous Han Dynasty, and then about [-] households entered Sichuan and Shu, and some Some of the unknown number went east, and finally reached Xuzhou, or even the Jiangdong area farther away.

In addition, some went to Jizhou, and even to Youzhou, Liaodong...

Anyway, the current ground in Henan Yin is almost empty.

Compared with Xiahoudun, Cao Cao is more aware of the significance of population to a regime, so no matter in history or in the present, Cao Cao is constantly migrating the population to the central area, especially in the border areas, or where the control power is relatively high. Weak areas, the population of these places will go to Yecheng and other areas in Xu County.

In view of this, it is even more impossible for Cao Cao to give up these populations in Jingzhou easily.For the generals who command the troops on the front line, maybe they just think that the people are just labor and cannon fodder, but for a politician like Cao Cao, the population is the leek... er, the source of finances, the guarantee of taxes.

Fei Qian smiled, shook his head and said: "This is also for the good of Brother Meng De..."

Cao Cao smiled without being angry, "This is quite new..."

"Brother Mengde has come all the way, but you didn't find anything wrong? Fei Qian looked at Cao Cao and said slowly, "There is an epidemic in Jingzhou! 』

Although Cao Cao's expression is still calm, Fei Qian can feel that at that moment, Cao Cao's eyes have some involuntary wandering.After all, the plague, no matter how many armors it wears, no matter how brave it is, it cannot be resisted, and it is frightening.

"Ha ha……"

Cao Cao just laughed twice before being interrupted by Fei Qian, "Come here, call Zhongjing and Yuanhua!" 』

If it hadn't been for the transmission of the letter to Guanzhong this time, and the people from the Hundred Medical Center were summoned to deal with the plague, Fei Qian might have to wait a while before he knew that Hua Tuo had arrived in Chang'an...

No way, Hua Tuo was originally a person who did not pursue power and wealth relatively speaking, so even when he went to Chang'an and entered the Hundred Medical Center, he did not reveal his true identity. He used a fake name at will and revealed some acupuncture techniques. Infiltrated into the Hundred Medical Hall.

After all, there was no face recognition system in the Han Dynasty. Many people only heard of Hua Tuo’s reputation and did not see the real person. If Hua Tuo hadn’t volunteered to stand up after hearing about the Jingzhou plague this time, after the hussars shook people, perhaps Hua Tuo was still silently hiding in the Hundred Medical Hall.

"This is Zhang Ji and Zhang Zhongjing, who once treated Liu Jingzhou and prolonged his life. However, he was coerced by traitors and had to go to Chang'an. He is now the assistant of the Hundred Medical Museum.Zhong Jing diligently seeks ancient precepts, learns widely, is proficient in "Su Wen", "Nine Volumes", "81 Difficulties", "Yin Yang Da Lun", etc., is good at Pingmai syndrome differentiation, and is good at typhoid and miscellaneous diseases...』

"This one is also from Qiao County..." Fei Qian was very happy to see that the corner of Cao Cao's mouth seemed to twitch again, and then continued, "Hua Tuo Hua Yuanhua, practicing medicine in Ji, Yu, Yan, Qing, Xu, as few as thousands of patients have been cured, and as many as tens of thousands, if you talk about the art of acupuncture and moxibustion with the golden knife, there is no one like it in the world...』

"Now that the two disease doctors are gathered here, they are here for the epidemic in Jingzhou..."

『How is the epidemic situation in the camp now? ’ Fei Qian did not shy away from Cao Cao, and immediately asked.

Zhang Ji took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "The 15 patients have all taken the medicine, and most of them have turned mild now, and we still need to be investigated...there are two other people, I'm afraid it's a bad luck..."

Patients with early onset symptoms were fierce and rapid, and there was no timely drug control for the symptoms. As a result, even when Zhang Jihua Tuo came, there was no way to recover.

"Are there any new patients? ’ Fei Qian continued to ask.

"It's been three days since there were any new additions..." Zhang Ji replied.

Fei Qian nodded, then gestured to Cao Cao, and said: "The general is also from the epidemic area, you two may wish to ask a question or two..."

Zhang Ji and Hua Tuo turned their heads to look at Cao Cao.

I don't know if it was because of the fear of the plague, or because he was naturally nervous when facing the doctor. Cao Cao obviously lost his so-called general demeanor. Awkward and unnatural.

"Do you have symptoms of pain, diarrhea, vomiting, coughing, or wheezing?"Or is the body weak, weak and anorexia? Hua Tuo didn't care if he was a general or not, he asked unceremoniously when he came up.

"Or dizziness, sweating profusely," Zhang Ji also asked beside him, "I'm troubled by heat, dry throat and joint pain?" 』

Cao Cao may not tell the truth when facing other people, but when facing Zhang Ji and Hua Tuo, he is honest and honest, not only answering the questions of Zhang Ji and Hua Tuo, but also touching Touching his head, "I often have a headache on this side, but I don't know why..."

Hua Tuo glanced twice, "I'm afraid that the evil wind will enter my brain..."

"Ahem..." Fei Qian quickly interrupted, and then said, "It seems that the general is not infected with the epidemic, fortunately!"However, the soldiers led by the general also came from Jingzhou, I would like to ask you two to troubleshoot...』

Fei Qian was really worried that Hua Tuo would say that he would open a ladle for Cao Cao...

After a while, soldiers came to report that two doctors, Zhang Ji and Hua Tuo, led people to find several obviously seriously ill and more than a dozen mildly ill patients among Cao Jun's soldiers.

For a moment, Cao Cao's face became quite bright...
