King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 885 Another Year (1)

It can be said that Sun Quan's trick was insidious. He even used Sun Ce to suppress the two old ministers in front of him. Both of them are loyal and good people. They must be filled with shame. The Sun Quan has served the Sun family for many years. Now Sun Quan is not changing the law. Do you say you are unfaithful?In ancient times, warriors fought to the death, and literati died to remonstrate. Sun Quan's words directly stirred up waves in the hearts of Zhang Hong and Zhang Zhao.

Of course, the two are full of dissatisfaction. They know that Sun Quan is irritating themselves, but they can't tell the truth in front of their lord, and Sun Quan has already talked like this. If you don't say something, then you can't continue up.

Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong immediately clasped their hands together and said, "My lord, I think..."

Either he didn't say it, or he rushed to say it, Sun Quan laughed evilly twice in his heart, waved his hands to Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong again and again, and said, "Hehe! You don't need to think too much, gentlemen, it's just a moment of emotion, gentlemen. Say whatever you want!"

Zhang Hong and Zhang Zhao looked at Sun Quan, and the two looked at each other again. After the exchange of eyes, then follow the usual practice. Zhang Hong took the lead and said: "..."

As time goes on, the deep winter is getting deeper and deeper, which heralds the arrival of the New Year, and it is also the most solemn traditional festival of the year, and the Spring Festival has a history of more than 4000 years.The new year was called "Shangri", "Yuanri", "Gaisui", "Xiansu" etc. in the pre-Qin period. "; in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, it was called "Yuan Chen", "Yuan Ri", "Yuan Shou", "Sui Chao", etc.; in the Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties, it was called "New Year's Day", "Yuan", "Sui Ri", "New Year's Day" "Zheng", "Xinyuan", etc.; in the Qing Dynasty, it was always called "New Year's Day" or "Yuanri". One way of saying is that in ancient Chinese calligraphy, the word "Nian" was placed in the Ministry of Wo to show that the weather will be good and the grain will be plentiful.Because grain grains are generally ripe once a year.The so "year" was extended as the name of the year. During the period of Yu and Shun, Shun was the son of heaven, leading his subordinates to worship the heaven and the earth. From then on, people regarded this day as the beginning of the year. This is the origin of the Lunar New Year, which was later called The Spring Festival, the Spring Festival used to be called New Year's Day, and the month where the Spring Festival is located is called the first month. The Xia Dynasty used the first month of Mengchun as the first month, and the Shang Dynasty used the twelfth month as the first month. After Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, it was stipulated that October was the first month. In the early days, the Qin calendar was used. In 104 BC, astronomers Luo Xiahong and Deng Ping formulated the "Taichu Calendar", changing the original October as the beginning of the year to Mengchun and the first month of the year. Later generations gradually improved on this For the lunar calendar we use today, Luoxiahong is also known as the "Spring Festival Old Man".

As the most solemn festival of the year, how extravagant it is for today's chaotic world. Li Lin's party is thinking about celebrating the Spring Festival. After the war, the coming of deep winter is the biggest blow to the people. For a period of time, ordinary people faced such a cold winter, wars, and killings filled everything around them. Not to mention panic, there was simply not enough food for the winter.

Fortunately, Li Lin resolved the war before the coldest day, and it was considered to be over. The war can be suspended for a while, but this appeasement of the people cannot be stopped. Bing Yuan, who sits in Xuchang, is very busy. Dong Zhao and Chen Qun are by his side. Waiting for people to beat the back of their heads all day long. Li Lin had just established himself in the Central Plains not long ago, and his family was very meager. He hadn't started saving yet, and this kind of thing happened. So facing the hungry and cold people in the states of the Central Plains, Bing Yuan had no choice but to reach out to the big families.

"My lord!" A scribe came in front of Bing Yuan and said to Bing Yuan, "[-]% of the representatives of the rich families in Xuchang City and all over Yuzhou have already arrived outside the Marquis of Liao's Mansion!"

"Okay!" Bing Yuan said heavily with his back to the scribes, and said slowly, "Changwen! You go and invite Kong Rong immediately, Hua Xin has a few famous scholars in the city!"

"Yes!" It turns out that the scribe is Chen Qun, and now he is the Biejia of Yuzhou, and now he can help Bing Yuan with these things.

After talking to Bing Yuan, Chen Qun went out immediately, after all, there were more things to do.

"Hey..." Bing Yuan heard the sound of Chen Qun's leaving footsteps, turned around slowly, with a face full of fatigue and pain, and said faintly: "It seems! We will be counting on us old people for a while." The guy's face!"

When you ask for money and food from a family, you will usually be told, "The landlord's family has no food left!"

What's more, the relationship between Li Lin and the aristocratic family is tense. Ninety percent of the aristocratic families came to Xuchang, partly because they really gave Li Lin face, and most of them were afraid of the soldiers and horses in Li Lin's hands. Since they can invite them, of course I have to find a way to get some food out of their mouths. After all, these thousands of hungry people are much more important to Bing Yuan or Li Lin than these rich families...

And Li Lin is on the other side, in this Chang'an city, the brothers are much better than fighting everywhere, but Li Lin also stopped, although the attack on Chang'an is very smooth, but don't forget, there are still three people in the west Well, that is Han Sui, Zhang Lu and Yuan Shang, the first two are easy to deal with, let Li Lin give one to the fool, but this Yuan Shang, Li Lin really underestimated this kid, or it can be said that he underestimated this kid The strength of the counselors under his command has increased.

"Hiss! Hehe, the meat roasted by the boss is delicious." It goes without saying how cool it is to eat barbecue and hot pot in winter. These two methods will be convenient at that time. In Chang'an City, there are still ruins. The place that used to be the Han Palace has been repaired several times by Zhong Yao, Yuan Shang, and Liu He. Although it still cannot restore the grandeur of the Han Palace, it can still be said to be magnificent. They surrendered at the last moment when the city was broken, so the city was saved from being destroyed once, and now, of course, this is the place where Li Lin and his soldiers and horses have fun.

The place that used to be a palace has now set up a fire, and there are several big cauldrons, with water burning in the big cauldron, and the fire on the other side is leaning on mutton.

"Zlazz!" came the sound, and the aroma of barbecue diffused, making the boys on the side salivate.

On the other side, the water in the big cauldron was also boiled, Li Lin quickly put a lot of seasonings, and then began to put beef slices, green vegetables, and various ingredients, some of which even these barbarians have never mentioned , It’s not that I haven’t eaten before, these old men ate food, all gobbled it up, and didn’t even look at what they ate...

"Snapped!"

"Don't move! It's not good!" Li Lin was very dissatisfied and slapped the hand of one that was going to steal it. It was none other than Brother Bao.

"Boss..." Brother Bao's face was full of sadness, it was more painful than losing a battle, and he said depressedly, "I'm about to starve to death!"

"Wait a minute! Wait a moment!" Li Lin said angrily, "It's not like I haven't eaten!" Then, he looked at Qubei, Kavro and the others beside him. In fact, they all looked similar to Brother Bao. Even Sun Guan and Peng Tuo looked like dead mothers, Li Lin scolded with a smile, and said: "You guys, starve to death!"

"Report..." A person ran in quickly, cupped his hands to Li Lin and said, "Report to my lord, a letter from General Ma Chao!"

"Yeah!" Li Lin nodded, and went to read the letter. A group of people behind him were discussing whether they should queue up for a meal, and what was the order of the queue, seeing Li Lin's eyes leave the barbecue on the shelf, Ding The hot pot in the restaurant, everyone immediately cheered.

"Hey!" Brother Leopard took the lead, stepped forward with a chuckle, twisted a big piece of his body and stuffed it into his mouth. He went behind and was not to be outdone. He strode up to break off the leg of lamb. He and Peng Tuo were a little more elegant, ran to the side of the cauldron, took the bowls and chopsticks, and picked out the almost cooked meat slices in it, and threw them back into the pot directly when they saw that they didn't eat the vegetables.

Li Lin, who got the letter, heard the sound behind him, and immediately looked back. Everyone had already started beating Duo Ji, and Li Lin immediately scolded: "Damn! You eat before I put salt!" But so Unable to stop the devil's hand from everyone, Li Lin murmured a few curses, turned around, and took the letter from the messenger.

"Huh?" When he opened the letter, Li Lin's complexion immediately changed, becoming extremely gloomy, in stark contrast with the scene behind him.

"It's not easy..." After reading the letter, Li Lin muttered to himself. The letter from Ma Chao was just about Yuan Shang's actions. Yuan Shang was used as a spearman to beat Yuan Shang because of his loyalty to Li Lin, but Yuan Shang, who was supposed to be friendly with Li Lin, was abnormally dissatisfied with Ma Chao. Li Lin thought that as long as his words were sincere and the relationship between Ma Chao and Yuan Shang, It will make Yuan Shang understand a little bit, don't make up your own mind, but it seems that this is not the case now, Yuan Shang turned against Ma Chao directly, was aggressive, and even called Ma Chao a villain. Fortunately, Ma Chao's heart has changed a lot, otherwise, let go He had fought impulsively before, but now facing Li Lin's order not to allow him to take the initiative to fight, Ma Chao did not act rashly.

What's even more outrageous is that Zhang Lu suddenly sent troops to attack Han Sui's rear. Ma Chao immediately guessed that Zhang Lu was not fooled by Li Lin, but by Yuan Shang. Very powerful counselor, I have seen it myself, and quickly sent a letter to Li Lin to explain, although it did not cause any loss to Li Lin, but the plan did not succeed, it must be a big problem...

"Xu You! Xun Chen!" Li Lin squinted his eyes, looked at the snowflakes still falling outside the palace gate, and murmured, how familiar these two names are to him, he let them run away during the Hebei War, I didn't expect to meet again at this time, and give myself eye drops......
