Three Kingdoms

"The flowers of Tangdi are as beautiful as those of Ebu Weiwei. All people today are better than brothers." 』

"The power of death, brother Kong Huai, Yuan Xi has passed away, brother begs..."

In Qinglong Temple, a middle-aged and elderly man was singing emotionally.

Inspired by this poem, more people began to gather together and cherish the beauty of the past.

Nothing seems to be wrong, everything seems to be spreading in the shadows.

"I am nearly half a century old this year, and many brothers in my family have lost their lives. Every time I think about the joy of banquets and the love between brothers, I feel sad..." A middle-aged and elderly man with white hair spoke in public, wearing a wide robe. The big sleeves are sweeping and fluttering in the spring breeze, making her look like a fairy.

This middle-aged and elderly man has a surname of Zheng, a name of Hun, and a courtesy name of Wengong. The reason why he is said to be middle-aged and elderly is because his age may not be completely called an elderly person, but his appearance looks very old, like the bark of a tree that has been beaten by wind and rain, and he has a sad look.

"The world is in chaos, the people of the world are mourning, and the creatures of the world..." Zheng Hun sighed longly, "Just like the Warring States Period, if the Emperor of Zhou knew that the princes were indulgent, would he also seal them?" 』

"There is a certain Zheng family, who was given the title of Ji Jiang. He was granted the title of Zheng, and his reputation lasted for thousands of years..." Zheng Hun's hazy eyes seemed to reveal some different colors, "In the ancient Zhou rites, the sages were in the throne, and there were distinctions between high and low. , being noble is not humiliating, being humble is not noble... There was a distinction between the superior and the inferior among the king, father and ministers... Now the emperor and his ministers are upside down, the superior and the inferior have lost their position, and there is no distinction between high and low..."

"Let me ask all of you here today, whether it is such a... change or insult, can you, or the descendants of your family, bear the pain?" 』

The gentry, if you want to say it is a gentry, and go up a bit, basically they all come from the Yanhuang side. Basically, they can at least call themselves descendants of the Yanhuang and the Duke of Zhou with pure blood.

Once again, some ancient nobles may have had surnames because of their official positions, or they may have families because of their fiefdoms. If we really talk about it, most of the descendants of the current gentry have good ancestors. When Zheng Hun said this, many people immediately felt a sense of recognition.

The song "Tang Di" that opened the song was sung not only for himself but also for all the nobles present.

Everyone, we were all brothers before...

We should all be on the same page, so how could we fall apart now and kill brothers?

Zheng Hun said again in a deep voice: "In the past, the Emperor of Heaven blessed me, and Duke Zhou had a hundred sons." A hundred sons are all brothers, they are comrades of the same mind and virtue, they love all people and are supported by the people, so they can extend the country and ensure peace and prosperity for the country and the people. If brothers are harmonious and have the same surname, they can be as violent as Shang Zhou and win, not to mention the troubles in one place! 』

"All Men Are Brothers! The world's noble families are one family! 』

"Brothers who are jealous of each other are naturally being bullied by outsiders!" 』

"Brothers are united in one heart, and naturally they can break gold!" 』

Zheng Hun looked around and said loudly and righteously: "Now let's talk about it in Qinglong Temple, but before we talk about it again, I would like to see all the brothers work together first!" 』

"Together we can win!" 』

Zheng Hun was still talking about brothers needing to unite and work together. Mi Heng, who was passing by, was already quite disdainful.

In the face of interests, how can brothers be of the same mind?

If we really want to be of the same mind, where did the disputes that arose from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Period come from?

As for "the king, father and ministers, superiors and inferiors", let alone other things, among the great Han Dynasty, how many emperors died directly or indirectly at the hands of the nobles? At that time, why didn't we mention "the king, father and ministers, superiors and inferiors are superior and inferior"?

I don’t talk about brotherhood when I’m planning for interests on weekdays, but now I feel like I need to use it, so I’m talking about brotherhood again? I'm afraid it's a little late!

However, Mi Heng did not express his position at this time, and just passed by silently.

During this period of time here in Qinglong Temple, it is really called a chaotic dance of demons. More and more gentry children came from all directions after hearing the news. Every day, the lectures inside Qinglong Temple are fully booked, and the rest can only be like It was Zheng Hun who tried to capture certain people or chains of interests in the square, and then tied some people to his chariot.

Zheng Hun's so-called "brother theory" sounds good, but in fact there are many problems. We are all brothers. So when there are hardships, it is natural to have brothers who are willing to share the burden. Naturally, they are very happy, but they may not be willing when they are rich. We spent time together and rested on the credit book. Are they brothers?

Furthermore, when there is no problem, we are all brothers. When one of them has a problem and becomes guilty, do all the brothers have to fight for him?

Everyone knows the truth, and it sounds like the same thing, but if you really want to do it, you will definitely not be able to do it...

Mi Heng sneered, and then slowly walked into the small official house that belonged to him.

"Your husband is here!" 』

"Brother Shohei!" 』

"This is a certain application..."

"Step aside! Someone came first! Someone came first! 』

"..."

A group of people almost got into a fight over who could submit the application first.

Fortunately, the clerk on the side was very used to this situation. He scolded loudly, then checked the number plates issued to each person, and asked the guard on the side to remove two or three people who were disrupting order, so that the whole group could be calmed down. The queue became stable again...

Mi Heng suddenly felt that Zheng Hun's previous remarks were ridiculous.

There is such a small difference in order, and everyone is fighting for it like this. Where are the brothers who have agreed? Where is the brotherhood?

……|●′?`|σ……

Only interests can form an eternal alliance.

If we look at it purely from the perspective of interests, all the noble families in the Han Dynasty can actually be a huge community of interests at a certain time and for a certain period of time.

When facing the emperor, that is, the imperial power, the gentry class united closely. Not only did they fight against the imperial power, but they also deceived their relatives and killed the eunuchs...

When the persecuted emperor had to flee to Beiman Mountain, the Han gentry showed great strength, but now, chaos and mutual strife among the gentry are inevitable.

When Qinglong Temple was in turmoil, Fei Qian and Pang Tong were climbing the mountain.

This fat black bird, no wonder there was Luofengpo in history, even Lu couldn't run away!

Pang Tong gasped, and Fei Qian didn't rush him.

Anyway, if you are not in a hurry, you can climb one mountain a day, go up the mountain in the morning, eat in the mountain at noon, go down the mountain in the afternoon and go home, take a bath, massage and sauna... Well, that's what it means anyway. At the beginning, Pang Tong could only climb some small hills before he was exhausted, but after persisting for a few days, he gradually got used to it.

After all, that's where human potential comes from.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

Pang Tong finally climbed to the top of this mountain. He originally wanted to stand on the top of the mountain and roar to vent his anger, but instead of shouting for half his voice, he took a mouthful of mountain wind and suddenly started coughing.

"take a break! Come get food! Fei Qian was also sweating a little. He looked at the sky and said, "Half an hour, um, almost. We'll be back in half an hour!" 』

The guards responded in unison, and then began to repair on the spot.

Fei Qian took the food and water from Huang Xu, and then gave one to Pang Tong. The two sat on the rock on the top of the mountain, looking at the land of Guanzhong below.

After coughing a few times and breathing for a while, Pang Tong's breathing gradually calmed down. He first drank some water, then muttered something in a low voice, then opened the dry food bag, took out the bacon pancakes and tore them into pieces. stand up.

In the process of climbing the mountain, the lunch meal was relatively simple, and no one cared about it. It was not considered a violation of the Han rule of having two meals during a solar eclipse, and it was not considered a transgression.

"What did you just say..." Fei Qian also asked Pang Tong while tearing the pancake with his teeth.

Pang Tong took a sip of water and swallowed the food, "I mean... the wind in this pass is really getting stronger..."

"wind? Fei Qian raised his eyebrows and said, "You mean Qinglong Temple?" 』

Pang Tong nodded, pinched the bacon pancake in his hand and said: "A group of guys, chattering every day, advocating this and that, like flies, it's really annoying..."

"There are a lot of people looking for you, right?" Fei Qian said with a smile, "I heard that many "talents" from Jingxiang have sent letters to your house in the past few days? 』

"Aha!" Pang Tong raised his head and laughed, "Isn't it?" But the question is what did these guys invest in? word! Song! Gift! No one has written a policy statement or anything... Do you think it's funny or not..."

Fei Qian nodded and said, "It seems it would be better if the wind gets stronger..."

From a certain point of view, Pang Tong's current perspective on the problem is basically the same as that of Fei Qian. He starts from actual and specific affairs. Therefore, for some "well-known" Jingxiang scholars and celebrities, what kind of literary heritage are displayed here? This type of poetry is indeed of little interest.

Generally speaking, there are still many gentry children who prefer to talk, and this kind of casual talk that flourished in the Jin Dynasty also tends to be idealistic. However, Fei Qian believes that this kind of idealization is somewhat "idealistic". , and once you fall into "idealism", it will be difficult to communicate.

Therefore, among the gentry children of the two Jin Dynasties, these talkative children did not have any suggested countermeasures for the society or the country. Instead, they fell into self-escape...

And some other seemingly "realistic" gentry children are faced with new problems and new challenges. A large part of them rush to the front when making money and benefits, and then when problems and difficulties arise, , shirk, delay or even run away, then in fact these "realistic" people are actually just "profit-seeking" people.

Are there any truly "realistic" people?

Yes, but many such people only know how to immerse themselves in doing things and solve practical problems. Many things are solved by these people before they develop. In the end, they are not promoted as fast as those guys who talk all day long. .

These "profit-seeking" people show no mercy at critical moments. They shirk the rules and documents. If you have any questions, please go to your superiors. If you have something to do, please go to your subordinates. Anyway, it's none of his business. Slowly, the "realistic" people were stepped down little by little, and those floating above were either "profit-oriented" or "superior".

This is the evolution process of the children of the noble clan. Will this kind of love and killing among human beings change due to the length of history? Will it be different depending on the time?

Obviously not.

As long as the power of the bureaucracy remains supreme, "idealistic", "realistic", "profit-oriented", etc. will eventually become "superior". The King of Chu had such a slim waist that many people died of starvation in the palace. There were large bowls of tea on the stage and large bowls of tea off the stage.

In fact, officialdom is like a mirror, reflecting each other's exterior and interior.

Fei Qian could actually end this troubled world with pure power and conquest like most time travellers. In fact, that would be simpler.

But here comes the problem...

If Fei Qian does the same thing, then what is the difference between a time traveler like Fei Qian and other Han natives? Kill faster than them, with more knives and sharper edges?

Martial arts is difficult, martial arts is even harder.

The difficulty of martial arts lies in how to kill people more skillfully, while the difficulty of martial arts lies in how to eliminate distracting thoughts.

Therefore, many things can only be done, proposed and promoted by Fei Qian, and only by proposing them at this juncture can it become easier for future generations to become unshakable rules.

When the material conditions and the foundation of people's livelihood are gradually stabilized and the cornerstone is reached, the people's wisdom that has been established will give birth to many colorful flowers. Even if someone wants to cover these open eyes again, they will listen to If you want to mislead or deceive, your ears will be blocked again. Sooner or later, you will be exposed and exposed...

Now in Chang'an City, everything is stable.

But outside Chang'an City, in Qinglong Temple, there was indeed a turbulent situation and a flood of discussions.

"If the wind gets stronger..." Pang Tong said, "Sometimes I don't know which way it will blow..."

"Well..." Fei Qian nodded, "This is indeed a problem you mentioned..."

Fei Qian knew that Pang Tong was reminding him.

"These people from Koto... I don't know whether I should say they are arrogant or cautious..."

Just like the bald eagles of later generations will always deliberately arrange some trouble around rabbits when they compete with each other for seats on their butts...

For a period of time, the issues in Qinglong Temple have indeed been very chaotic. Under the guidance of some people with intentional or unintentional intentions, the wind has gradually started to roar. However, in the past few days, someone has taken action to divert some of the limelight. Already...

For example, among all the topics, the initial focus of discussion was the issue of powerful local households in Hanzhong, Sichuan and Shu.

Various issues surrounding the fiasco following the rebellion.

Originally, some people wanted to use the "tragic experiences" of these powerful people in Hanzhong, Sichuan and Shu to spark a confrontation against Fei Qian. However, after a wave of development, they were either misled by other exaggerated and outrageous news, or they kept silent to avoid it. After making these people feel surprised, they gradually became unable to follow up...

But in fact, this problem has not disappeared, but has been covered up under other problems...

On this issue, whether it is Guanzhong, Hanzhong, or other powerful people in other places, they all have a tacit understanding to suppress this issue that might have caused waves. Even the topics of whether those unlucky wealthy people in Hanzhong, Sichuan and Shu were wronged and whether they had any hidden secrets were all abandoned.

The military power displayed in the Battle of Hanzhong means that Fei Qian has sharp weapons and advanced technology that can pry open the turtle shell. It also means that as long as Fei Qian is willing, he can pry open the turtle shell at any time. Which one to pry open!

This means that the originally contradictory relationship between the Han Dynasties began to become unbalanced.

A spear for attacking a city, a shield for defending a city.

Originally, the reason why the Han emperor had no good solution to the local tyrants was that the spear was not sharp enough and the shield was too thick. As a result, when the shield fought against the spear, it took a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to break a shield, and then What is obtained from it is simply not enough to supplement the expenditure and consumption in this process.

During the siege, people with different surnames often lived together in the city. However, in the manor and fortress, there was often only one surname. Most people were more or less related by blood, which made it easier to achieve unity, which meant that It is very troublesome to attack such a fortress. Unless it is really necessary to destroy it to scare the monkeys, such tough methods are rarely used.

But the problem is that Fei Qian did it twice!

At least it was done openly and on a large scale, twice in front of these powerful nobles!

The first Ohu Wubao in Sanfu Rendo in Guanzhong could be said to have been neglected and was raided or sneak-attacked because the gate of the Wubao was blasted at that time. Although it was considered a demonstration of new technology, it was After evaluation, many people found that it was not impossible to resist...

For example, replacing the door with a stronger one, replacing the wooden door with a metal one, adding a mechanism at the door of the dock to spray water and falling sand to extinguish the fire, etc. Fei Qian's original tactics of door-to-door water meter checking can be controlled. In a relatively small range of damage, the battlefield is brought back to their familiar territory.

But now, the appearance of the Vulcan Stone Cannon extinguished their joy, which did not last long, causing them to fall into panic again...

For ordinary people, there is not much panic about these new methods of the Hussars General, but it is completely different for the local wealthy noble families.

They tremble, they are afraid...

Because Feiqian now has a spear that can quickly destroy their turtle shells!

"So there are a lot of "famous people" coming from Jingxiang these days..." Fei Qian chuckled, "Just watch, there will be more and more... This wind will get more and more..." big……"

"But..." Pang Tong was still a little worried.

"Don't worry..." Fei Qian smiled, "Tomorrow I will take you to see Ma Dajiang's new sails... This wind... In fact, it winds southeast, northwest, and where the wind comes from is not important. What is important is Sail..."

"sail? Sail? Pang Tong was stunned for a moment.

"Um! ” Fei Qian responded vaguely, then took another bite of the pancake, chewed it a few times and swallowed it before saying, “Eat quickly... Only then will you have the strength to go back after eating... What do you want to eat at night?” Or Qiangzhu? 』

"Aha!" That must be cooked with Qiang! Pang Tong replied decisively, "Save the best piece of meat for me!" 』
