Chapter 0841 rumors(1/2)
Feng Yong naturally didn't know that Liu Liang, who had exhausted so much energy, could still taste the marrow and taste it, so he thought of ways to get more secret fragrance from his own hands.
Of course, if he found out, he would have to hang the kid up and give him a beating to make him recall the fear of being dominated by Feng Wenhe.
How did Amei come into this world?
Wasn't it because her mother took advantage of the danger and bravely captured the husband of the Han family that she was born?
Why were you captured?
Isn’t it the version 1.0 of Secret Fragrance that knocks people down?
Amei’s mother was originally a witch doctor in the clan, and her main job was to dance the great god and treat people, or to do the great god dance while treating people.
It is normal for witch doctors to know about some hallucinogenic or nerve-stimulating drugs, but it is abnormal not to know about them.
Back then, Feng followed in the footsteps of his father-in-law, and was knocked down by Amei with the secret incense passed down from his ancestors, and he lost his head.
This incident made Guan Ji very angry and resentful at the time, and she didn't really let it go until she officially became the principal wife of the Feng family.
Of course, this is not the point.
The key point is this secret fragrance passed down from Amei’s ancestors, and its raw materials are only produced in Nanzhong.
It is not that Feng Yong never thought of transplanting the herbs used from Nanzhong, but he failed not to mention moving them to Hanzhong, but also to the vicinity of Jincheng.
Even if it survives, it has lost its original medicinal properties, and the secret fragrance produced is not useful at all.
But this is expected.
After all, the climate in Nanzhong is quite different from that in Jincheng.
It's normal to be acclimatized.
But this leads to the fact that the secret fragrance is destined to be only produced in small quantities.
Over in Nanxiang, sometimes I want to find out the secrets from the mouths of some die-hard craftsmen.
As long as you give him some wine, mixed with hallucinogenic drugs used by witch doctors, and burn a special version of secret incense, you can make people feel dizzy and fall into a dreamland.
Coupled with some interrogation methods brought by Feng Wenhe from later generations.
Moreover, today's meticulous work is not like that of later generations. There are also certain self-hypnosis methods that can make lies appear to be the truth in an unconscious state.
In this era, no matter how stubborn a craftsman is, if he wants to keep secrets, he must either be sober or completely dead.
Therefore, although the combination of hallucinogenic and secretive fragrance is not as good as the confessional agent of later generations, but it is a low-end version, it is almost the same.
Of course, the kind Liu Liang used was a fun version, which was different from the detailed interrogation version.
The raw materials are similar, but the dosage of ingredients is different.
But no matter which edition it is, it is considered a collector's item. How can it be said that it is something you want?
However, although Liu Liang's thoughts were beautiful, he was right about one thing: Feng Wenhe was obviously very satisfied with what he did in Xiping.
In other words, it suits Mr. Feng’s taste.
If Liu Liang had no big ambitions, then he would probably be satisfied.
After all, in the Huangshui River Valley, he had the support of the Xinghan Society and was the son-in-law of several major tribes, so walking sideways was not a problem.
Coupled with the supplies that pass through every year, even if you don't think about it deliberately, your hands will automatically be stained with oil and water.
I can't say that I am rich and powerful, but I can live a life without worrying about food and clothing. I think it should be possible as long as the big man can control this place and Feng Wenhe does not fall.
But is this possible?
Let’s not talk about counting on others for a lifetime. Even Liu Liang himself, if he really has no ambition, why would he come to Xiping to hang out with the barbarians?
It can’t be that the taste is unique, right?
Anyway, at the beginning, the Prime Minister betrayed his family's reputation, and Old General Zhao acted as a guarantee, and Feng Wenhe also agreed to let him go.
Wouldn't it be better to hang around in Jincheng and wait to die?
Even if it's not good, why not just do some casual work in Longyou?
On the other hand, Xue Niang looked a little nervous when she heard that Alang wanted to go to Longyou with her clan members:
"Alang, although there is Brother A's tribe in Liangzhou, he is already considered a branched off tribe. Just in case..."
Liu Liang waved his hand nonchalantly: "There is no such thing as an emergency. I have my own sense of discretion and can rest assured."
In the past two years, Liu Liang had been drinking with Bald Pigu and Bald Kheli for more than half a year. How could Liu Liang not figure out what they had in mind?
Others thought that the Baldness Department wanted to hedge its bets, but Liu Liang knew that the materials he had handled in the past two years were tilted towards the Baldness Department.
Besides, the bald Khotan said he ran away to Liangzhou, but before he went to Liangzhou, he made a special trip to Longyou.
With Feng Wenhe's ruthlessness, if the Bald Man really dared to take advantage of him while swinging back and forth, he would probably be eaten up to the point where no bones are left.
Is the chief steward of the Han labor force just talking about it?
If you don’t believe me, ask the barbarians in the south?
Seeing Liu Liang with a pair of beastly eyes, but with a confident expression, Xue Niang didn't know what to say, so she could only nod in agreement:
"Yes, I know."
Liu Liang in Xiping was thinking about sweet dreams, but Cao Rui, who patrolled east to Xuchang, found his dreams shattered.
The news that Cao Zhen's 100,000-strong army at Xiaoguan was defeated by Feng Yong with 20,000 troops was like a bolt from the blue, hitting Cao Rui until his vision turned black.
"Thief Feng, I will peel off his skin and eat your meat!"
Cao Rui thought that his plan that he had carefully laid out for two years was wiped out by Feng Thief's 20,000 troops.
He only felt the blood in his chest churning, and finally couldn't help but let out a "wow" sound, spit out a large mouthful of blood, swayed, could no longer hold up, and fell to the ground.
The chamberlain, ministers, and guards who were following him suddenly became confused: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
"Serve the doctor, serve the doctor!"
…
Cao Rui visited Xuchang eastward this time, ostensibly to prevent Sun Quan from interacting with the Shu people from the east, but in fact he came here to relax.
Because he knew very well that Sun Quan had no chance to cause chaos to Wei at this time.
Over in Luoyang, the ministers had been quarreling for a long time over Cao Zhen's plan to conquer Shu, which seemed really disturbing.
What's more, in order to move the thrones of Emperor Gao, Emperor Wu, Emperor Wen and others to Luoyang in Yecheng, he wanted to take the opportunity to build two more palaces, but was dissuaded by the ministers.
The most important thing is that the defeat of Qianfan Shiting caused many soldiers to flee.
According to the laws of Wei, the wives and daughters of the fleeing soldiers were confiscated and brought into the official ranks and redistributed to other soldiers.
Cao Rui asked his favorite minister Lian Zhao to choose the one with outstanding color in advance and quietly placed it in Xuchang.
Part of the purpose of his coming here this time was for these women.
Without the interference of the ministers, Cao Rui was so happy these days, how could he have any restraint?
While he was feeling so happy, he was still planning to wait until the news of the great victory in Guanzhong came and then go back and slap the ministers in the face.
Unexpectedly, we did not expect news of a great victory, but news of a great defeat.
He had been short of energy and blood these past few days, and his breath was disordered on the spot. He couldn't breathe, and he fainted immediately.
Fortunately, he was revived by the accompanying doctor, but because his blood was weak, he lay on the bed for several days before he regained his breath.
Remembering that the ministers in front of him had advised him not to conquer Shu easily, Cao Rui felt that he was too embarrassed to face the ministers in Luoyang.
In addition to being ashamed, Cao Rui took advantage of his illness and stayed at home all day long. Whenever something happened, he only allowed his favored minister Lian Zhao to come in and report.
It's just that the news of Cao Zhen's defeat in Guanzhong had already caused an uproar in Luoyang, and there were many rumors that Chang'an had been lost, making people in Luoyang panic.
Cao Rui's autism made the accompanying ministers worried and anxious. They came to greet Cao Rui every day and only wanted to see Cao Rui, but Lian Zhao blocked their way.
Among the Wei officials, Yang Fu was the most upright, and even Cao Rui respected him.
He was also on the trip this time, and he saw that the news coming from Luoyang every day became more and more complicated.
In anger, he reached out and pulled out the long sword from the guard's waist, pointed the sword at Lian Zhao and cursed:
"Rumors are spreading everywhere and China is in turmoil, but Your Majesty does not want to meet with ministers to discuss state affairs. This is actually a move that harms the country."
"You don't dissuade His Majesty, but you still block our audience. You are a traitor to the country! If you can dissuade Your Majesty today, just do it. If you fail, I will punish you here and enter the Holy See on your own!"
Lian Zhao looked at Yang Fu's stern expression, as if he really wanted to kill him, so he didn't dare to neglect, so he had to go inside and report to Cao Rui.
With Yang Fu making trouble, Cao Rui had no choice but to meet with the minister.
Under the persuasion of the minister, Cao Rui agreed to leave for Luoyang as soon as possible to calm people's hearts.
Then Liu Fang, the supervisor of the Zhongshu, who was in charge of the secret, and Sun Zi, the Zhongshu ordered, quickly took the opportunity to present the news sent from Guanzhong.
After Cao Rui finished reading, his expression changed drastically, and he was silent for a long time. Finally, he looked at his close advisor beside the couch:
"Guanzhong is in turmoil, but Grand Sima is ill in Chang'an and is unable to govern. It's really God's unfaithfulness to the Wei Dynasty!"
"Your Majesty, please send a general to Chang'an quickly to assist the Chief Sima!"
Yang Fu said decisively.
