Three Kingdoms

In the land of China, war smoke is everywhere.

Although Fei Qian didn't see the black smoke caused by Ma Yue's burning of the Xianbei tribe in the north, it felt like a scar was burned in his heart.

Fei Qianmian barely maintained a smile and sent away Wang Xiang, the envoy sent by Wang Yi, the governor of Hedong County, to congratulate him. When he turned around and was alone, the smile on his face slowly disappeared...

Just now I learned from Wang Xiang’s mouth that Luoyang was burned on Dong Zhuo’s order.

Black smoke poured into the sky, covering ten miles.

The symbol of a dynasty ended like this.

Beside Fei Qian's desk, there is a budding lotus-shaped incense burner. This seems to have been added two days ago. It was probably used by the Wei family before and was sent to pay off debts.

The incense burner is made of bronze, with green smoke curling up.

An incense burner like this would have been a thing of beauty in later generations, but in the Han Dynasty, it was just an ordinary utensil used by nobles.

Fei Qian stared blankly at the green smoke hovering above the incense burner, feeling at a loss.

There was a time when I was also worried about the disaster in Luoyang, but now I don't know why. I feel mixed, with regret, hesitation, and even a little hidden...

Relieved.

How can we control the general trend of the world if we fail to foresee the major events in the world?

But there are limits to prophets, just like what Fei Qian did before, but the more you do it, the more serious the damage to the known history will be, just like a wheel traveling on the road and crushing a small piece of it. of stones, and then deviated slightly. As the number of stones increases, perhaps the entire wheel will deviate...

However, once he deviated, Fei Qian knew in his heart that his ability to predict would be cut off.

Although I don’t remember much at first, who wouldn’t wish that I could be more capable of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages...

This kind of thing has nothing to do with morality, it's just the purity of human nature.

Even in future generations, if time could go back, I don’t know how many people would stare at the courtyard wall of Lao Ma’s house, vying to be Uncle Wang...

When the agarwood in the incense burner was burned out, a wisp of green smoke seemed to linger on the lotus petals carved in the incense burner for a week, and finally let go of the hand and slowly rose into the sky.

It must be broken after all.

Conquering the world is not Fei Qian's wish, but preserving more vitality for the Han family is indeed the thing Fei Qian wants to do most now.

Just like someone said "Queen of Yashan", the name Han people was not used again until the Tang Dynasty, but since then, there has been no "Song people", "Ming people", or "Qing people". title?

Why is there Chinatown in later generations, why is there no Songren Street or Mingren Street, but it is just famous for Han and Tang Dynasties?

Why is it that what is said and written now is called Chinese? Even though there are poems, lyrics, and music, it is still Chinese characters, not Song dialect, Minghua, and Qingfu?

Why are there no terms like Song, Ming, or Ming and Qing used to refer to Chinese people, both at home and abroad? Is there some inexplicable relationship between this?

Fei Qian was thinking about this, but he felt like a tangle of thousands of roots lingering in his heart. For a moment, it was as if his heart was filled with something, making it uncomfortable.

Fei Qian's thoughts were interrupted by soft footsteps outside the hall. A personal guard came to the hall and reported that Wei Liu was here.

Fei Qian calmed down a bit. After seeing Wei Liu, he saw Wei Liu looking troubled and asked, "Is Meng Lian in trouble?"

Wei Liu suddenly left the table and fell to the ground, kowtowing and said: "The three elders of Linfen want to see Zhonglang... However, Liu is of low status, so..."

Three elders?

Fei Qian frowned and did not ask Wei Liu to stand up immediately, but pondered in his heart.

The policy of the Three Elders began with Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty. Liu Bang regarded this as a national policy and ordered: "If the people are over fifty years old, have spiritual practice, and can lead people to do good, they will be appointed as three elders and one person from the village. The three elders from the village will be selected as the three elders from the county. With the county magistrate Cheng Lieutenants teach each other things, and don't garrison them again."

Linfen is naturally at the county level, with three county elders and one person. The three elders are not officials of the county court, but form their own system. They work with the county magistrate, prime minister, and lieutenant to educate the people. They have no rank and only enjoy exemption from corvee service. preferential treatment.

The three elders lead the people to do good deeds in order to educate the people from the perspective of virtue. The county officials focus on "herdsmen", that is, criminal governance, while the three elders focus on "guiding the good", that is, moral education. The two can complement each other. This was actually the consensus within the ruling group of the Han Dynasty. Although the three elders are not officials and need to be recognized or appointed by the government, they are actually the downward penetration of the government's ruling power.

The difference between the Han Dynasty and the Qin Dynasty lies in this. Although the political management structure was also divided according to counties and counties, it is obvious that the Han Dynasty focused on the original local folk customs in the countryside. The Three Elders were the result of the game between public law and public sentiment. , played a great role in maintaining order in the countryside in the Han Dynasty.

However, any policy system will always undergo some deformation after being implemented for a period of time...

Originally, the three elders were only responsible for teaching and had no political role, but it was inevitable that the local powerful rightists controlled the Confucian classics, and then naturally had to look forward to it, or rely on family power to interfere in matters within the county.

However, officials in counties and counties have gradually become involved in the field of education. There are more and more records of local officials transforming people with benevolence and virtue. There are plenty of hogs, and after the farming work is done, the children live in groups and go to school."

By now, most of the three elders no longer specialize in teaching education as they did in the early Han Dynasty. The semi-official positions of the three elders have gradually become blurred. Some are completely invisible, and some have become involved in the grassroots political system. .

"The three elders of Linfen..." Fei Qian looked at Wei Liu and said, "...are they from the Wei family?"

Wei Liu pressed it again and said, "That's right. He is the eldest father of our family. His name is Bozhan..."

Although the three elders have continued to evolve due to the strengthening of bureaucratic bureaucracy, they still have a considerable reputation in the countryside. Although they do not hold real power, their influence and reputation are often real.

Enlightenment...

Fei Qian looked at Wei Liu, sighed, and said, "Meng Lian, get up. This will happen sooner or later, and it's not something you can stop... When will it happen?"

It's probably not a good thing, but avoiding him is not the answer. Moreover, Wei Liu was allowed to ventilate first, so there is no problem with etiquette, so he still needs to meet him.

As for...

It can only be blocked by soldiers and covered by water and soil.

Wei Liu took out a wooden thorn from his arms, raised it above his head with both hands, and handed it over. Obviously, the Wei family had arranged this for Wei Liu to come and inform him, so Wei Liu knelt down to apologize from the beginning.

Fei Qian took the famous assassination and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Also the word "thorn" is used instead of "谰"...

I have been saving for many days. Let me release it and pay off the debt first...

Well, the author still remembers how crazy gank was before the postgraduate entrance examination...

The other two updates are at 15:30 and 18:00. Well, the above situation is like this...
