Farmer of Shu Han

Chapter 1264 Begging for Bones

"Da Sima didn't get angry with Pei Wenxing. Instead, he said that Pei Wenxing has always had a reputation for speaking out and being upright. It is very valuable to abandon evil and turn to goodness. His character does not change."

"He admitted that various problems will inevitably arise in the process of implementing the New Deal, which is unavoidable. The disadvantages mentioned by Pei Wenxing are still obvious."

"However, jade bi cannot be rejected because of minor flaws. The imperial court can send more envoys to inspect and correct deviations."

The queen heard it, nodded in agreement and said:

"Da Sima sticks to his principles without losing his sense of proportion, he doesn't get angry when he hears bad words, and he is quite magnanimous."

Unexpectedly, when A Dou heard this, he couldn't help laughing out loud:

"Big-minded, that's what you say to your own people. You don't know Feng Mingwen's name yet? The cruel Xiao Wenhe, if such a big incident happened to the wealthy Shangdang family, he will definitely kill him."

"Huh?" The queen was taken aback, "Could it be that Da Sima Feng still has a backup?"

"Isn't that so?" Adou's face was quite strange, "He took advantage of the question raised by Pei Qian, and simply came to the bottom of the pot, suggesting to imitate the former Han Lingyi system, and build a Tongyi in the north of Chang'an to connect Jiuyuan."

"Tongyi?"

The queen is a little confused.

But the mausoleum of the former Han Dynasty was too famous, so she had some vague guesses.

"Exactly, Tongyi." A Dou nodded, "Although Guanzhong has been restored, there are years of wars and chaos, people's livelihood is ruined, and the people's houses are empty."

"Although Guanzhong is connected with Jiuyuan and Qin Zhidao, the people's power is poor and it is difficult to continue."

"That's why it's not like setting up a city in the north of Chang'an, and moving it to the aristocratic and powerful families in the Guandong to realize it and connect the Jiuyuan, so it's called Tongyi."

"In this way, firstly, the northern border can be consolidated; secondly, the power of the people in Guanzhong can be strengthened; thirdly, the aristocratic families in the Guandong can be weakened to prevent them from causing disasters in the prefectures and counties; fourthly, this town can also be used as the mausoleum of the great Han in the future."

Rao Yi, the Queen's Wisdom, couldn't help but gasp when he heard this strategy.

If it is said that the implementation of the New Deal is to dig out the foundation of the aristocratic and powerful families, then the strategy of the city is to use a knife to drain their blood and cut their flesh!

But the queen had to admit that from the perspective of the royal family and strengthening the foundation of the big man, this strategy really moved her heart.

"The concubine took back what he said just now. This Feng Mingwen is exactly as His Majesty said, as before, and has never changed. It is really cruel and merciless Xiao Wenhe!"

It's no wonder that cruel officials like Shi Bao can be like a fish in water under his sect.

The queen's words were still unfinished. From her point of view, Feng Mingwen seemed to praise Pei Wenxing on the surface, but in fact, he swung a big stick and hit the other party with a sap.

Don't you, Pei Wenxing, want to plead for the people?

Don't you want to intercede with the wealthy Shangdang family?

Alright, then I'll just beat them to death with sticks in front of you!

To kill is to punish the heart!

However, Feng Mingwen proposed this policy in the interests of the country, which is irrefutable.

Compared with consolidating and strengthening the basic base of the big Han as soon as possible, what are those Kanto wealthy families who have evil intentions, or may have evil intentions?

After the end of the later Han Dynasty, one of the noble families in the Kanto region counted as one, and Quan Zhuzhi might occasionally be killed by mistake.

But every other barbarian family must have slipped through the net.

"That's right, Da Sima said that the wealthy families in the Kanto region have many traitors attached to them. This is just to make them commit crimes and perform meritorious deeds in order to prove their hearts."

A Dou sighed, "Da Sima's words are as irrefutable as ever."

How about clever words?

Empress Zhang is also a little fascinated. Fortunately, such a person of extraordinary style is a Hanchen, and he is also the son-in-law of the emperor.

Now the general situation of the world has become more and more clear. When the big Han officially leaves the Kanto, it is the time to decide the fate of the world.

At that time, no matter how reluctant the Kanto nobles are, they have only two choices under the leadership of the big Han iron hoof soldiers:

One is to choose to perish with the puppet Wei, and the other is to move westward into Guanzhong.

They died together with the puppet Wei, even if they are not dead, I believe that with Da Sima's means, they can basically make them not much different from the dead.

And moving west to Guanzhong, there is still a glimmer of hope.

After all, under the Dahan scientific examination system, as long as their children are up-to-date enough, they might be able to regain a foothold in Guanzhong.

How to choose, do you even need to think about it?

Because there is no choice.

Empress Zhang can already imagine the grand occasion after the Great Han pacified the Kanto.

"Although this move may make some Kanto families determined to fight against the beasts and make it more difficult to pacify the world, as long as the big Han soldiers can win the battle."

"Then Da Sima's strategy can at least lay the foundation for a hundred years of peace for the great man."

Empress Zhang couldn't help sighing, "Da Sima, an extraordinary person, who does extraordinary things, is a real hero!"

Can the Han generals cut off the false Wei and pacify the Kanto?

At least the queen will not doubt it, and even firmly believes it.

Just thinking of such a person, who might become a powerful official in the future, Empress Zhang felt a little depressed.

Although Feng Mingwen is known for his foresight and foresight, he is mostly used to intimidating his opponents with grandeur.

Happy to be his ally.

But being his opponent is hard.

Because you will always have a sense of aggrieved power and nothing to do.

It's just that the queen thinks about her own situation, and knows that it doesn't make much sense to think about it now.

What's more, after the Shangdang battle, His Majesty has become tired of politics and wants to back down.

After all, this is how the prime minister's era came about anyway. For His Majesty, Feng Mingwen is much easier to get along with than his father, and is easier to get close to.

With His Majesty's temperament, Feng Mingwen's ability, and the expectations of all the ministers, the Empress knows that Feng Da Sima's position is probably unshakable.

At least until the Wei thieves are cut off, or even Soochow is put down, and the world is unified, as long as Feng Da Sima does not disagree, His Majesty probably doesn't want to have any more troubles.

Thinking of this, the queen suddenly felt powerless.

Competing with your courtiers for His Majesty's heart is exhausting.

But it's not without gains, at least knowing Pei Qian seems to be up to something.

While thinking, the queen asked with a smile:

"Your Majesty must have heard that they had been arguing for a long time because of this, right?"

A Dou said with a bitter face:

"Exactly. Then Pei Wenxing wanted to plead for orders for the officials of the Shangdang, but who would have expected such a result? How could he be reconciled?"

"It's just that this time, even the general thinks that Sima's strategy is quite old-fashioned, and Pei Wenxing is extremely angry in desperation."

"The only way to keep asking Da Sima is that Shangdang's tyrannical government is still unresolved, how to ensure that when the rich families move westward, local officials will not persecute good families."

Having said this, A Dou scratched his head again:

"I heard that Pei Wenxing's son is worshiped under Feng Dasima's sect, but his behavior in the court hall makes me a little puzzled."

The Queen smiled and said:

"What's wrong with this? Has Your Majesty not seen Wei Wenchang's son?"

"Besides, if things are abnormal, there must be a reason." Her face was thoughtful, "As far as the world knows, the big man doesn't like to see the Kanto, and even the Central Plains family."

"After the Shangdang incident, anyone who has seen it can expect that they will only be treated harshly in the future."

"With the status of the Pei family in Hedong, Pei Wenxing will stand up at this time..." Before he finished speaking, the queen sneered, "I'm afraid his plot is not small!"

If it is said that Feng Da Sima represents the upstarts and relatives, the general represents the old ministers and Jingzhou Yuancong.

Then Pei Wenxing, an old fox, is afraid that he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to win over the hearts of the Shangdang clan in the east of Taiyuan, so as to gain a foothold in the imperial court.

Maybe in the future there will be a Kanto family after being purged.

Not a fuel-efficient lamp!

But A Dou is still a little confused:

"So what? In the imperial court, who can compare with Da Sima? Pei Wenxing is not too young. What's the point of coveting such power?"

The Queen let out a long sigh:

"Did Your Majesty forget about cotton? If Pei Wenxing becomes the leader of Bingzhou in the east, how much will Pei get from planting cotton in Yanqing and other counties in the future?"

"Oh, I forgot that part!"

A Dou slapped his head, "How could I forget such an important event?"

The imperial court made an agreement with the big families in Hedong and other places in Bingzhou that they would plant cotton in the Kanto in the future. According to the plan handed over by Feng Da Sima, how many tens of thousands of dollars was involved?

Other things can be ignored, such matters related to money and food must never be forgotten.

A Dou couldn't help blaming himself secretly.

"This Pei Laohu, heck, Pei Wenxing has such a far-reaching plan!"

"Your Majesty, among the courtiers, who dares to stand up and argue with Feng Da Sima, which one is simple?"

"That's true." A Dou thought for a while, and seemed to remember something again, "The queen mentioned Wei Wenchang just now, but I almost forgot, and Wei Wenchang asked his son to send a memorial on his behalf during the court today. "

"Wei Wenchang?"

The queen's face changed slightly.

——

Just as A Dou was running to find the queen, Da Sima Feng stepped down from the court, and when he returned to the mansion, he immediately ordered:

"Go, call Wei Rong for me."

"Report to Sima, Wei Langjun is already waiting at the mansion."

When Feng Da Sima heard this, he sneered:

"He's very smart! Tell him to come and see me!"

Wei Rong was summoned and came quickly, saluting:

"Students meet sir."

Da Sima Feng sat on the main seat with a golden knife, and looked at the big disciple below with no expression on his face:

"Tell me, what's going on?"

But Wei Rong said respectfully:

"Sir, is it a memorial to the student?"

Feng Da Sima continued to remain expressionless:

"Don't you think I'll ask other questions?"

Wei Rong glanced carefully at Feng Da Sima, and tentatively said:

"Mr. has been away from Chang'an for a long time, don't you want to inquire about the academy?"

Hearing this, Feng Da Sima laughed angrily:

"Why? The wings are stiff, and I dare to say that to my husband?"

Wei Rong quickly bowed his head:

"Students dare not."

After a pause, Wei Rong continued:

"It's just that the students think that the college and the martial arts hall are the foundation for the master's court. And the matter of the students and adults is just an old minister's wish for a good death, so it's nothing to worry about."

Feng Da Sima's face became a little stern:

"You think so?"

Wei Rong looked calm and nodded:

"Students think so."

Seeing his appearance, Feng Da Sima frowned slightly, but then relaxed.

He leaned his back on the back of the chair, tapped the armrest lightly with his fingers at the same time, and said in a deep voice:

"So, do you admit that you wrote the memorial to the general of the town army?"

The so-called general of the town army is none other than Wei Yan.

After Wei Yan's defeat, he was seriously injured because he took the initiative to cut off the rear, which led to a coma and was sent back to Chang'an for treatment.

Probably because of excessive bleeding and severe injuries, so although one life was rescued by the medical school, it was the root cause of the disease.

He was paralyzed half of his body, his hands and feet could not move independently, his mouth was crooked and his eyes were squinted, and he often drooled.

According to the School of Medicine, it was caused by the knife and arrow wound on the battlefield, resulting in the accumulation of blood in the body.

Feng Yong knew that nine times out of ten he was seriously injured, a blood clot formed in his body, and he might have been infected.

Old man Wei has been doing this for the rest of his life.

It is precisely because Wei Yan became like this, and because he is an old general who followed the late emperor, and he has made a lot of contributions to the great man.

Therefore, the imperial court did not punish him too much, but except for his post of Shangdang prefect and governor of Hedong.

At the same time, according to the usual practice, he was demoted from the left hussar general to the general of the town army, and cut half of his food.

It was about the same.

I never thought that Wei Chang, the son of Wei Yanchang, would write a memorial for his father this morning.

He only said that he was defeated by the thieves, and he failed the expectations of the emperor. Although the court did not commit a felony, he no longer had the face to stand in the court, and he only wanted to beg for bones.

If it was someone else, it would be fine.

Anyway, at Wei Yan's age, coupled with encountering such a thing, it is a blessing to be able to retire safely.

But an old warrior who was paralyzed in bed and still slurring his speech could still write such a smooth memorial to begging for bones.

It's outrageous to fall into his mother's hands!

Especially at this sensitive time, if you really have to be vicious, maybe it is Xiao Wenhe who is cruel and merciless, even an old man who is paralyzed in bed is not willing to let go!

Why is it a sensitive time?

Isn't it because of the one in Gui Palace?

Things hurt their kind, rabbits die and foxes are sad. If the queen thinks that Xiao Wenhe will treat her like this in the future, then there is a big misunderstanding.

So Feng Da Sima went down to court, and immediately summoned his students.

He wanted to ask exactly what happened in the Wei Mansion, and was there anyone else behind this memorial?

Wei Rong seemed to understand what his husband was worried about, but he explained:

"Sir, please rest assured that this memorial was indeed written by the student on behalf of his father, and it was also suggested by the student to my mother and brother, and my mother agreed."

"The most important thing is that no one knew about this matter before it was played."

Sure enough, it was your idea.

Feng Da Sima rubbed his brows:

"Tell me your reasons."

Wei Rongying let out a snort, and then explained:

"Sir, ever since the student was sick on the couch, the inside and outside of the house have been run by grandma. Grandma is only a girl, so she doesn't have much experience."

"Brother is simple by nature, and may be able to kill thieves in battle, but it doesn't help much when it comes to the affairs of the mansion."

"Students usually have to deal with the affairs of the college, and have no time to take care of the affairs of the mansion." Wei Rong paused, then raised his head to look at Feng Da Sima, "At this moment, the Wei manor is like a sharp knife that no one can hold."

"If someone takes advantage of the student's unpreparedness and stabs the student with a sharp knife, the knife will cut the person to death, and it will be too late to regret!"

"That's why the students think that letting the adults go back to Nanxiang to recuperate and stay away from right and wrong will not only save the entire Wei family, but also avoid the risk of Mr. being injured."

Feng Da Sima heard it, and asked in silence for a long time:

"Why didn't you discuss this matter with me first?"

Wei Rong shook his head and said softly:

"If Mister doesn't know beforehand, then my Wei Mansion's own decision has nothing to do with Mr.
