Chapter 1992: Old ways, new years, new ways
『It has been four years since I was so excited...』
The behavior of Chang'an cavalry is like the center of a vortex. A little bit of small movements will involve people and things around you. Many events that occurred last winter and this spring seem to have more or less connections with Fei Qian.
If you count by your fingers, the General Fei Qian of the Cavalry has changed a lot of things, and these changes often seem to happen naturally. Then many people will watch it, and it is still possible?
Especially the Xijing Shangshu Desk.
The "peace negotiation" in Xu County that time seemed a bit surprising at first glance, and it seemed to be a bit ridiculous. However, now it seems that General Cavalry's Xijing Shangshu Deck is indeed a good move.
Normally, even if the troops are at the city, even if they really want to "convene peace", they will still have to speak loudly. They will not let go if they don't bite them. However, Fei Qian just asked for such a position, which was considered to be a withdrawal.
The Han Dynasty was originally divided into two different places in Xijing and Tokyo. After Emperor Guangwu, there were two dynasties and palaces in Xijing Chang'an for a long time. Therefore, when Fei Qian asked for the name of the Xijing Shangshu Desk, many people thought it was very cost-effective. After all, there was no need to make too much concessions, and there would be no loss after enthronement. After all, Fei Qian had actually occupied the Three Auxiliary of Chang'an. Could it be that if Fei Qian did not enthrone such a Xijing Shangshu Desk, Fei Qian could not enthrone himself?
So, relatively speaking, it seems that it is not a big problem to throw out the title of Xijing Shangshu Desk.
But now it seems that no one would have thought that Fei Qian could make so many tricks at the Xijing Shangshu Station...
Then the question is, why can't this serious Shangshutai in Xu County be like Fei Qian?
When Fei Qian was still in the north, the land was only a remote county, with only tens of thousands of soldiers. The general was not satisfied with the picking up the army, and then he could travel across the north and west. However, at that time, Cao Cao was already the governor of a state, and then the governor of the state. He had 300,000 Qingzhou soldiers under his command. Well, the number was blown, but at least tens of thousands of elite soldiers were there. Why didn’t he think about Fei Qian? Instead, he seems to be a little... looking forward and restrained?
This made it difficult for Liu Xie to understand.
Sometimes Liu Xie does remember what would happen if he stayed in the North...
It’s not that Fei Qian is not good, nor is there any conflict between Liu Xie and Fei Qian at that time, but that Fei Qian’s territory was not large at that time. What Liu Xie himself was thinking about was the revival of the Han Dynasty like Emperor Guangwu. So wouldn’t it be safer to go to Yuzhou and follow Emperor Guangwu’s route back then?
Then the question arises again. Why can Emperor Guangwu take the path that he could not walk here and can’t work when he arrived at Liu Xie?
This gave Liu Xie a great headache.
If there is a barrage passing by at this time, I believe most of them are "adults, times have changed", or "+1", "+404", "+10094", etc....
Yes, times have changed.
It seems to be a truth just a few words, but if we talk about what the times are, what has changed? I am afraid that the barrage just now will immediately stop...
In fact, before Liu Xiu, not only Wang Mang, but also someone named Liu Xuan. Liu Xie thought he was Liu Xiu, and his dead brother Liu Bian should be Liu Xuan. But now it seems that he is the Liu Xuan in most people's hearts, and many people also want to be Liu Xiu, such as Cao Cao.
Or Fei Qian was thinking so too.
There are other people, many of whom have their heads lowered, but their hearts are raised high.
"You wait..." Liu Xie clenched his fists and whispered to himself, "How dare you be so... bold...
Isn’t this world the surname Liu, and has been surnamed Liu for generations? When did these opposite sexes, ah, the ministers of different surnames dare to stare at the position above the Dan rank?
If we look at the current situation, except for Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, no one seemed to have directly expressed such thoughts. They both respect the Han Dynasty and the Han emperor. However, such respect is actually limited, and it seems to be constantly decreasing, and it seems that sooner or later it will fall to the end.
Liu Xie was unwilling to admit this at first. He originally thought that he was the emperor and was favored by the luck of the heavens, so he should have suffered a disaster. Even if it was a bit storm, it was not harmful. However, the real world slapped Liu Xie several times, making him dizzy.
Only then did Liu Xie truly calm down, or rather, he threw away some of his previous naive thoughts and began to observe and think more seriously, at least he was more serious and thought more than when he was in Chang'an.
Liu Xie remembered that when he was in Chang'an, he also looked for Fei Qian and talked about his own theory of governing the country. Now, when he thought about it, Fei Qian, who looked down at that time, seemed to approve of the agreement, probably criticized it in his heart.
Why was Fei Qian unwilling to say and correct his thoughts at that time? Liu Xie muttered in a low voice, would Fei Qian feel that he would not listen to him at that time? Shouldn’t he give it a try, at least he should have a advice and a minister...
In addition, there is another thing, why can Cao Cao defeat Yuan Shao but not Fei Qian?
When Liu Xie defected to Cao Cao, it was not that Liu Xie who saw that Cao Cao could win at that time, but that there was no other better choice. After all, Yuan Shu was so arrogant, Yuan Shao was not much better. He even cut off his ministers and heard that he would establish a new emperor. If he really went there, he would be afraid that his life would be lost, so Cao Cao was the only option.
When Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shu and then defeated Yuan Shao, although Liu Xie was a little lucky and felt that he had chosen the right Cao Cao, he was also alert to Cao Cao, and then eventually turned into a conflict with Cao Cao...
However, such a conflict was soon temporarily put on hold under external pressure.
That’s right, this external pressure is Fei Qian.
Just like when the two brothers are fighting for inheritance, if someone comes at this time, it means it is raining on the banks of Daming Lake. As long as it is not stupid, they will naturally turn their swords and guns to the outside world immediately.
Therefore, now Liu Xie and Cao Cao at least have some tacit understanding of forgetting some things and then facing some things. But this does not mean that Liu Xie does nothing. Liu Xie has an idea. He wants to prove himself and prove that he is no longer a person who is not aware of current affairs and does not understand politics, but can have ideas and stir up the changing world of heaven!
"His Majesty……"
Empress Cao slowly came, Liu Xie stood up, met him, and then held Empress Cao's arm and sat down together.
"What's the matter with Your Majesty's invitation to come?" asked Empress Cao.
Liu Xie nodded and said, "There are indeed some things, but I want the queen to see the scenery in the distance. The spring scenery is pleasant and everything is emerging. I can relax my mind... If I am an ordinary family, I should take you out for a walk. Now I can only see here. It is better than nothing, but I feel wronged by the queen..."
Empress Cao smiled and said, "Your Majesty has such a heart, I should be enough..."
The spring breeze ran out lightly between the towers, shaking the treetops that had sprouted some tender buds, then jumped onto the tip of the grass on the roadside, bent it, and then rushed over the water like a dragonfly, running farther and farther away, leaving only a circle of ripples...
"I want to make another "salt and iron theory"..." Liu Xie said softly.
"Salt and Iron Theory?" Empress Cao frowned slightly.
Liu Xie nodded and said, "Sometimes ago, I asked Xun Aiqing about salt and iron...and then read it again, and I deeply realized that there are many wonderful things in it...as the turbulent today is like the time of filial piety in the past...the theory of salt and iron may also be..."
"During the time of Xiaowu, salt and iron were gathered to drive away the Huns, and when Xiaozhao, salt and iron were scattered to common people's grievances. From this, it can be seen that the gathering and dispersion of salt and iron was not determined, and we should discuss it according to the times and things." Liu Xie continued, "Now there are constant disputes, people's hearts and hearts are different, and they may be dispersed, and they should be decided... If we use the discussion of salt and iron, gather the people of Hebei and Henan, work together to eliminate the disputes, wouldn't it be in line with the original intention of the salt and iron theory in the past?"
Empress Cao looked at Liu Xie, thought for a while, and then smiled and said, "Your Majesty is far-reaching, I am convinced... However, the country's major affairs cannot be discussed by me..."
『Well…』 Liu Xie nodded slightly and said, 『In this way, the queen will share with me with this wonderful spring scenery…』
Queen Cao smiled, as if she was completely immersed in the scenery in front of her.
…( ̄ー ̄)People(^▽^)…
On the second day of the second month of the fourth year of Taixing in the Han Dynasty.
To be honest, the festival of the dragon raising its head was probably after the Tang Dynasty, but in the Han Dynasty, some generally symbolic activities had already appeared, such as asking for rain, whether it was wealth or poverty, they always made some delicious food on this day and offered some sacrifices, praying that the year would be good and the weather would be better every day.
Today is a rare good weather, and in the streets and alleys of Yecheng, some of the lively scenes have returned to the past. Some young gentry children who are not afraid of the cold have also taken off their heavy winter clothes and put on some lighter clothes. They staggered in the long street, which has attracted the attention of many girls.
Although Cao Cao had a prohibition on alcohol, there were policies and countermeasures from the top. Since it could not be sold, I would like to give it. Giving this one to the day and that one to tomorrow were all elegant things for literati and did not get involved in any of the things. How could it be said that it was a violation of the ban?
Although it seems that the current situation has not been completely stable, the wars continue in Hedong, Hexi, Jiangnan, Jiangbei, and even Youzhou seems to have a cold light flashing, but Jizhou is still Jizhou, Yecheng is still Yecheng, and the children of the gentry are of course the children of the gentry who will never fall for thousands of years and will never die...
The whole city is full of gorgeous clothes and beautiful hair, and the dream is my own family.
Cao Pi finally took off the heavy and heavy robe, and naturally felt that his body became much lighter. To be honest, Cao Pi had long heard that Fei Qian, the general of the Han cavalry, had some novel robes, which were light and warm. It is said that all those who had used them were good, but for some reason, Cao Cao was unwilling to wear them, and Cao Pi naturally disappeared.
But this doesn't matter, after all, brocade robe is also good.
The place where today's banquet is in a peach forest southwest of Yecheng. Many curtains and mats were set up in a row. The curtains were used to cover up the wind and cold, and of course they could also cover up the ugly appearance, so as not to reveal anything when playing games with beautiful sisters.
Although you can’t say that you are top-notch, you can’t be much worse. After all, it’s a matter of face. However, these people’s minds are mostly no longer enough, so they don’t care much about it.
In the winter, there are no ghosts, but when the flowers bloom in spring, the people are full of people who come to see the flowers. After a few days of fun and the flowers fade one after another, they fall into a situation where people hate dogs, year after year, this is true.
Next to the peach forest are some cooks and workers busy, with soup, roasted lamb, and many wine jars listed aside. From time to time, servants will make wine and then send it to warm up.
Cao Pi naturally abides by Cao Cao's ban. He did not prepare wine, but the guests who came thought that there was no wine to enjoy the fun. So he called his friend to bring a few jars and a car. After that, he became more, and they all said that it was his own wine and it was definitely not purchased, so it was not said that he violated Cao Cao's order.
Cao Pi was depressed for a while. After all, he was suppressed by Cao Cao more harshly. He always "feels what to do about this", or "what can do it", "how to deal with it", etc., and almost all of them were made crazy by Cao Cao. If it weren't for the crown on his head, Cao Pi would have to doubt whether his hair volume had decreased a lot in this section...
Of course, Cao Pi was actually instructed by Cao Cao for this banquet.
In the name, Cao Pi wanted to meet some talents from all races, saying that this banquet was a conference of talents, a gathering of talents, an elite from all races, etc.
However, in fact...
Cao Pi smiled on his face, but in his heart there was a burst of orange and numb wheat peel.
Although he held a literary conference, all families and ethnic groups gave face and were all here. On the surface, they all looked good, and they also brought food and drinks, and the servant Meiji. The scene was also very lively and treated Cao Pi very respectfully. It seemed that everything was good and there was no problem. But in fact, I went to take a closer look and saw who were the people who came here?!
At the beginning, before drinking, the demeanor was pretty good. After drinking for a few rounds, the true form was revealed. However, some guys could still control it, while others just hugged Meiji's diamond curtain. I don't know what they did, but I heard a burst of laughter, a burst of exclamation, and then a whine.
Damn, have you never seen a woman in your life?!
The concubine's son is either a servant of someone or a servant of that person. None of them can be considered a formal heir or a heir of the family. Although the clothes are five or six people and their words and demeanors are not bad, is Cao Pi's original intention of holding a party to invite these concubine's sons?
Not.
Because of the Qinghe County Magistrate, Cao Cao had to make some moves to express that Cao Pi naturally needed to share his worries. He used the name of an outing banquet to ease some of his temper with the Jizhou gentry, and then pulled a wave of people and beat them up, so that it would not seem like they were all standing opposites now, and they were somewhat afraid of being afraid of being a mouse.
But the effect is not very ideal now.
Obviously, these Jizhou gentry sent some concubines to attend the meeting. Most of these guys are just people who eat and drink on weekdays. They are good at eating, drinking and having fun. However, if you really want to talk about things, you can't even be with half of them. You either start pretending to be drunk and boastful, or hug Meiji and laugh at him...
Cao Pi could not be angry yet because these concubines in the side branches had excellent skills on the surface, and even if Cao Pi found some excuses and was angry, what if he could be angry? Even if he killed all these guys on the spot, it would not hurt much for these gentry families, and would leave these families with reasons and excuses for subsequent trouble.
Cao Pi still smiled, and then said inadvertently: "Now there are many governments in the court, and the princes are both here and abroad, and my heart is like hiding through the rivers... Recently, I heard that the emperor wanted to discuss the other side. The so-called listening to both sides is clear. It is true that the wise and wise are the ultimate saints and wisdom, and I should congratulate him..."
The person who seemed to be drinking and having fun seemed to slow down and his ears stood up.
"What the young master said..." Someone asked from the side, "But what does it mean?"
Cao Pi turned his head and saw that he was from the Lu family of Fanyang. Of course, Lu Yu, the son of Lu Zhi, did not come here, but another one, called Lu Feng, had a good appearance, but he was also a side branch.
"In the past, Emperor Xiaozhao, his father was not King Wu, his mother was not Yi Jiang, his body was not saint, his transformation was not fertile, he was not fertile, he was not fertile, and he was not fertile, and he was not fertile, and he was not fertile, and he was not fertile. He was born in the deep palace, and his hands were long-lasting. He was born in the deep palace, and his virtue was combined with his body, and his wisdom and nature were accomplished. However, the virtue of a man and a king was greater than that of the most wise. If he was wise, he would not be obscured..." Cao Pi said, "Now your Majesty would like to open up the road of words again, to discuss salt and iron, and to imitate the sages..."
Although Cao Pi's voice was not loud, it was like a thunder sound from the flat ground, which immediately shocked the people around him silently!
Who is Cao Pi talking about?
How many meanings does this sentence mean?
Although I didn't talk much, there was a lot of information revealed, and everyone looked at each other for a moment.
『Yes~~~』
The sound on this side became smaller, and the sound on the curtain naturally became louder. I don’t know if the guy got it to that place. A woman’s uncontrollable scream suddenly came from the curtain, resounding throughout the audience.
Cao Pi smiled slightly, as if he had heard nothing.
Cao Pi doesn’t seem embarrassed, so the embarrassing one is naturally the other person…
But compared to such embarrassment, Cao Pi's next words made these people feel even more at ease.
