The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 505 Xiaowei Studying Notes ([-])

In late November of the third year of Jihan Guiyuan (274), Wei Mi came to Chang'an with his four younger brothers after being urged by Wei Guan, who served in Xuzhou, many times.

The so-called dawdling does not mean walking slowly on purpose.Instead, I had to walk a little slower—the bullock cart.

From the time they passed Huayin, this team of ox carts kept attracting the attention of passers-by: There was no other way, because Guan Da Sima took the lead in demonstrating that men from Yiyongliang and Liangzhou went out to do errands, either on horseback or on foot.Even the female relatives of noble and senior officials traveled, at least in a carriage.And the ox cart?Except for the fact that people from the Sima family used it when they came to Chang'an to worship a few days ago, I haven't seen it since.Moreover, the Sima family's team was too large at that time, and Ji Han's soldiers had been guarding from the outside, so they couldn't watch it at all.Therefore, this time the children of the Wei family moved westward, and they were strongly watched by the Kansai people.

In the eyes of old farmers in Kansai, cattle with such strength are the right way to use them to cultivate land.pull cart?At such a slow speed, it's almost like walking!Therefore, along the way, during the short distance, the Wei family's convoy was ridiculed in various ways.

"Oh, those guys in Kanto have such virtues."

"Hahaha, the gentleman who preached before said that the children of the aristocratic families in the Kanto region have thin skin and bones, and they can't stand the bumps, so they can only go out in a bullock cart. I was dubious at first, but now, hahahaha~~~"

"Hmph, you bastard. When did Mr. Preacher lie to us?"

"Well, that is, that is."

At the beginning, when someone laughed at the Wei family convoy, Wei Yi, the youngest of the five Wei family sons, even opened the car window to argue with the people outside.However, the people in Kansai seem to be completely different from those in Kanto who are full of envy when they see an ox cart but hide their muddy legs.Not only did they not have the sense of fear in the face of nobles, but they appeared extremely sturdy.

That's right, the emperor often comes down to harvest wheat with us, so what do you count as a son of a Kanto family?
Therefore, the delicate and weak voice of Wei Yi was quickly drowned in the endless ridicule of the Kansai aunts.

"Phew~~ I finally arrived at Chang'an City. Those foolish men and women in the wild are really unreasonable! Eh? Where's the person who came to pick us up? Where's that stinky boy Anu? Left and right, can you tell us about it in advance? ?”

"Reporting to the young master, I arrived in Chang'an five days ago and met my uncle. My uncle personally agreed to come here to welcome me."

"Uncle? Don't call me so affectionate. My little sister hasn't married this guy yet! And with his attitude today...huh!"

As the two families who have engaged in a marriage, the enrollment procedures for the five sons of the Wei family were specially approved by Guan Yi.Therefore, when the five sons of the Wei family came to Chang'an, they should be received by the Guan family as a matter of course.The Wei family communicated this, and the Guan family also sent Guan Hui to greet him.

But the problem is: the itinerary of the five sons of the Wei family is too slow. According to Guan Hui's calculations, the members of the Wei family should have arrived three days ago.As a result, he came and waited for two days, but the other party hadn't arrived yet: Er Shao Guan is still a student of Longshouyuan College, and it's time for the final exam.But there is not so much time to waste.

So Guan Er Shao directly left, and left a message for the guard at the city gate before leaving: When the Wei family members arrive, they will make arrangements, and then the young master will come over as soon as he receives the news.

As for how to identify a member of the Wei family, hey!Bullock cart, and it is a luxuriously decorated bullock cart!
This is of course a private use of public power, but the young masters of the Guan family are generally very self-disciplined, and they are very polite to servants.Moreover, Guan Er Shao was very knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and first gave the city gate guard the communication fee.So, it's settled.

So, when the young masters of the Wei family lost their temper, a remnant army with a complete right hand and a short left hand greeted him with a smile: "Dare to ask you nobles, but are you the son of the Wei family?"

"Exactly, are you?"

"Oh, I'm Huang San, who is on duty at the east gate of Chang'an City. I just came off duty this morning, and I have been waiting here for a long time under the order of the second son of my great Sima family."

Guan Annu, you are too much.They actually sent a disabled person guarding the gate to meet us!
However, Wei Mi is a middle-aged man in his 30s who has worked in the officialdom of the Jin Kingdom for many years.So it didn't explode at this moment: "So, please trouble you to take us to the Guanfu."

"No, I take orders, nobles, please follow me."

Huang San led the way, and the Wei family's convoy followed into Chang'an City.

At this time, Chang'an, due to the change of political status, is no longer just a western military town in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.As the capital of Jihan, he gathered merchants and goods from all over the country.What's more peculiar is that since Ji Han opened up the traffic between the Western Regions and Taixi, it is not uncommon for Chang'an City at this time to have Persians with high noses and deep eyes and Romans with thick black hair.

However, in the end, commercial development has not yet reached a certain level.Therefore, Guan Yi's management of the city imitated the practice of Chang'an City in the later Tang Dynasty: commercial transactions can only be carried out in a certain area.So after the Wei family brothers entered the city, although they felt that the crowd density was very high, they didn't feel the noise.

Sitting on the bullock cart, the five Wei brothers were very happy to discover that the quality of the residents in Chang'an City was indeed much higher.Because along the way, the eyes cast on their team may be a little strange at first, but it won't take long before they become extremely respectful.Even the passing soldiers bowed slightly towards them.

"Hey, brother, after all, Chang'an is a big city. Seeing our ranks, I know we are not ordinary people."

"Hey~~" With a long sigh, Wei Mi turned his head to Wei Yi and said, "Fifth brother, have you really seen the situation clearly?"

"how?"

"These passers-by are not saluting us, but Huang San in front."

"This? How is this possible?"

"Hey, that's all, stop."

After the bullock cart came to a complete stop, Wei Mi got out of the cart and saluted Huang San.

"What do you mean, my lord?"

"Dare to ask this brother, we have traveled all the way, why do most passers-by salute you?"

"Oh, you ask that. That's because of the medal on my chest."

"medal?"

"Of course, my family's Chief Sima went to His Majesty more than a month ago to establish a medal system. I was the first batch to be awarded honors."

"The matter of the medal was mentioned in the palace newspaper. It's a pity that I didn't pay much attention to it. Uh, do you dare to ask, is the medal pinned to your chest now?"

"Of course, here, please look, my lord. I have two medals on my chest. One is a five-level Dahan medal. This is nothing. As long as you serve the country and cause disabilities, you can get one. So now I There are at least 5 or [-] people in the Han Dynasty who can wear this kind of medal. Here, nobleman, please look in front of you on the left, there is a remnant soldier wearing a fifth-level Dahan medal."

Following Huang San's finger, Wei Mi looked forward and found a young man who was missing a leg and was still walking fast with a cane.

"It seems that this person only wears a medal on his chest?"

"Haha, you have good eyesight." Speaking of this, Huang San's expression became richer, he moved a little closer to Wei Mi, and said in a low voice: "People who only have the fifth-level Dahan medal are usually recruits. , was maimed by the enemy before entering the battlefield before he had time to make a contribution... This is not the same as us."

"Hehe, Brother Huang's another medal?"

"Haha, this is the second-class Boyue Medal! At present, there are no more than 100 big men who can get this kind of medal!"

"Brother Huang is indeed not an ordinary person. Dare I ask, how can I get this kind of medal?"

"It is clearly written in the Commander-in-Chief's Order that as a general, he can successfully achieve the strategic goal, and at the same time, his side loses less than [-]% of the opponent. Or if he still achieves the goal with less than half of the enemy's strength, he can get a third-level Boyo Medal. On top of this, if the enemy is wiped out instead of defeated, and the loss is less than [-]% of the opponent, the second-level Boyue Medal. But we soldiers are relatively simple, counting heads. Above [-] levels, the third-level Boyue Medal .Fifty and above, level [-] Boyue..."

When Huang San uttered these words, he unconsciously carried the murderous aura that he used to fight forward on the battlefield.Wei Mi, who was standing very close to him, unconsciously took two or three steps back.

What a shame!He was almost made to kneel by such a servant.

"Brother Huang, is there any benefit to this medal?"

"Advantages? Of course there is. Hasn't the nobleman seen all this way?"

"Well, that's not what I mean. I mean, is there any benefit in terms of money, food, and salary?"

"How is it possible? When I was in the army, the imperial court gave me a settling allowance. When I was disabled and retired, I was given severance pay. He was also responsible for finding me a job. This medal is just a proof of honor in the past, how can it be used to make money? This Your honorable person, I feel very good now, and people respect me wherever I go. Of course, I have to be more serious in my work, otherwise I will be sorry for the two medals on my chest!"

"So that's how it is..." With a long sigh, Wei Mi raised his head and looked at the sky of Chang'an: "I didn't expect that it was only six or seven years since Kansai was taken by the big man, and the folk customs here have changed so obviously. It seems that this time it's here It’s really interesting to come to Chang’an for a study tour.”
