Chapter 1,439 The Family History of Qinglong Ancestor
Liu Yu was so shocked that he stood up, took a step forward, and looked at Qinglong's face carefully. Although this face, except for a pair of eyes, could be said to be completely rotten, the most appropriate way to describe it is as battered and battered.
, but that white belly-length beard, even though it is made of deer hair, is braided into three long beards, looking like a fairy. Liu Yu once saw Xi Chao's portrait in Xie Xuan's home, which is also related to Xi Chao's portrait.
This is exactly the same, and the sharp eyes are exactly the same as in the painting. It turns out that every time I see Qinglong, I look at his eyes that are deep in the eye sockets, like an eagle, and I feel that I have seen them before.
, only now did I realize that it was Xi Chao.
Qinglong looked at Liu Yu calmly: "Are you surprised that a person who has been dead for many years came back to life again?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "It's not surprising that he faked his death under the name. What really shocked me was my impression of Beard joining the army. He was a hero who accompanied Huan Wen in three Northern Expeditions. He was a peerless counselor who could almost regain the north. Logically speaking,
You will not be inferior to me in your desire for the Northern Expedition and your ambition to regain the lost territory. This is what you have been fighting for all your life. Why did you become Qinglong and in turn become the biggest resistance to the Northern Expedition?!"
Qinglong smiled slightly and looked at Liu Yu: "Liu Yu, do you want to hear a former hero of the Northern Expedition, a senior of yours, tell you about his life? Maybe after listening to my experience, you will have a new understanding of life.
I will gain more understanding and think more about the future.”
Liu Yu gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "I would like to hear the details!"
Xi Chao said slowly: "I was born in a wealthy family since I was a child, and our Xi family is a wealthy family that started in the late Han Dynasty. Our Xi family originated from Gaoping, Qingzhou. Our ancestor, Duke Xi, was once a courtier in the late Han Dynasty.
, he was a Confucian master at that time. He studied under Zheng Xuan, a great Confucian of the generation, and became his favorite disciple. He was famous all over the world. Later, he became an official in the late Han Dynasty and became a minister. Although he became an official in troubled times, he could be regarded as a glorious ancestor, which made me proud.
The Xi family has become known to everyone in the world."
Liu Yu nodded: "I heard Fatty talk about the major families in this dynasty. When he talked about your Xi family, he said that your family started to develop from Xi Lu. At that time, he worked under Cao Cao and became the censor.
Doctor, Empress Fu of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty later conspired to assassinate Cao Cao. It was Xi Lu who was personally responsible for his execution and the execution of hundreds of members of the Fu family. From this incident, your ancestor's reputation is not too bad.
good."
Xi Chao gritted his teeth and said: "My ancestors were loyal to Cao Cao wholeheartedly at that time, because our ancestors started from a young age. If we were talking about family background and the later Han Dynasty who paid attention to the method of inspection and promotion, it would be impossible to get ahead. Cao Cao could only use people according to his principles and not be rigid.
Yige, then had the opportunity to be an official, so he was so grateful that he did not hesitate to destroy his reputation as a great scholar and did the evil thing of killing political enemies and beheading his entire family for Cao Cao. But what was the result? It was clearly Cao Cao who ordered the killing, but
In order to avoid being scolded by the scholars in the world, he used his ancestor as a scapegoat and dismissed him from office. Unfortunately, his ancestor was loyal to the Cao thief, but he was cooked to death by a rabbit and a dog. From then on, he completely understood the true face of the Cao family and warned him.
Children and grandchildren should accompany the king like a tiger, and the king’s power must be controlled.”
Liu Yu said with a smile: "Last time I heard Zhuque talk about the origin of the Mafia, saying that it was a group of nobles who were dissatisfied with Cao Cao's punishment and wanted to protect themselves. Initially, it was to seize the Cao family, and later it became
He has become the mastermind behind all dynasties, so Lingzu must have participated in the formation of this organization back then."
Xi Chao sighed: "Yes, that's right. There were two things that our ancestors saw about Cao Cao's hypocrisy and treachery, as well as his wolfish ambitions. One was to kill Empress Fu's whole family for the sake of power, and then blamed his officials, Cao Cao.
He claims that he is a true-hearted man and would rather be a villain, but when he is really asked to bear his own evil deeds, he does not dare to be such a villain, and instead wants his subordinates to take responsibility for himself. This is extremely hypocritical."
"But compared with this hypocrisy, what alarmed our ancestors more was that in order to unify the world, Cao Cao did not hesitate to destroy the defenses of Yixia and lure the Huns into the Central Plains. He successively moved the five southern Xiongnu tribes in Monan, as well as Hanzhong and Long
On the right, more than 100,000 households of Qiang and Di people entered Bingzhou. The core areas of the Central Plains such as Guanzhong have been transformed since the Spring and Autumn Period. The barbarians of all walks of life have been expelled from the Central Plains for thousands of years. They chased Liu Bei in Changbanpo and fought with Qishan
Zhuge Liang's campaigns were filled with these barbarian soldiers. It can be said that it was Cao Mengde who allowed the barbarians to invade the Central Plains and planted the seeds of future chaos!"
Liu Yu opened his eyes wide: "It's actually Cao Cao? It's just that we have naturalized many barbarians before, and Cao Cao is not the first one."
Xi Chao shook his head: "In the past, the naturalization of the Hu people was just to let them stay as nomads. They were still outside the Great Wall. Only a few Hu nobles who had made great contributions to the Han Dynasty and obtained titles could join them. There were only a few of these people.
Thousands or tens of thousands, the number is very small. Over time, they will be no different from us Han people in the Central Plains. It will not constitute a big crisis."
"But Cao Cao is different. He brought these Hu people into the interior just to serve as military households for generations to help him conquer the world and protect the country. Therefore, after moving these Hu people into the fortress, he did not follow the previous practice and disperse them.
Instead of relocating and reorganizing the people into households, they still retained their original tribal patterns and used the original tribal leaders to continue to manage them. Even their production methods still retained their nomadic habits. In the mountainous areas in the north of Bingzhou,
In places such as Xiurongchuan and Lishibao, there are large areas of grassland for their nomadic pastures. It can be said that these Hu people have retained their original organizational model and their original production methods. They cannot be replaced by our Central Plains people.
Assimilated by the farming Han people."
Liu Yu nodded thoughtfully and said: "No wonder even a hundred years later, when the Eight Kings were in civil strife, the princes of the Sima family still had the idea of these barbarians."
Xi Chao sneered and said: "Yes, when Cao Cao was alive, he was still wary of these barbarians causing rebellion. He would disband after the war and would not let them form an independent army. He also left a lesson to his descendants. Do not use barbarians unless absolutely necessary.
In addition, for Huns and other Hu leaders, it is necessary to directly go to the capital to serve as officials, leaving the nephews of the chiefs of each tribe to monitor and put them under house arrest in the name of going to school, so as to alienate the relationship between their leaders and their tribes, so that they are less likely to cause chaos.
.I have to say that from Wei to Jin, over a hundred years, this policy was implemented fairly well."
"But our ancestors have long seen through that the Han people are engaged in farming, while the Hu people are nomadic. Their ordinary production is accompanied by riding and hunting. They are born without training. It can be said that they are warriors when they are pulled out. In addition, the tribal form has always existed, as long as
If someone returns to the tribal organization, a large army can be established at any time."
