Chang'an has experienced several ups and downs, and finally gradually settled down. Zuo Fengyi's storm seemed to have swept down a lot of fallen leaves in the city. The rest did not seem to have changed much, and life was still going on.
Yes, it's just that there are more things to talk about in the Wase Winery and Teahouse. The shops along the street have also resumed business one after another, and the flow of people on the street has begun to shuttle back and forth.
Living in the moment.
Firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, these things alone are enough to worry ordinary people, not to mention that there are elderly parents at home, a three-year-old child who knows nothing but cries when hungry, plus the fatigue caused by
How can he have the mind to care about the so-called important affairs of the court when his body functions are aching due to strain?
It would be best to pay less taxes and save more money and food. Seeing that the autumn harvest is approaching day by day, and the crops in the fields are bending down day by day, these farmers and ordinary people are supposed to be paying attention wholeheartedly now.
, collecting them and looking forward to these Zhuang He.
But this year is a little different. It’s so lively this year...
It’s more beautiful than dancing Nuo dance!
In the Han Dynasty when entertainment items were extremely scarce, this was like celebrating the New Year in advance.
For those Guanzhong gentry, although this year seems to be the same as usual, there seems to be no difference, but the petty officials who are patrolling loudly outside the streets, the soldiers of the Zhengxi Cavalry cruising in the streets, at the head of Chang'an City,
The three-color flags flying high in front of Changle Palace were silent reminders to them that this Chang'an is no longer the Chang'an of the past.
The structure of the entire Han Empire seemed to be like a bottomless pool. There were only slight waves on the surface, but there were turbulent undercurrents inside.
The storm caused by Zuo Fengyi gradually began to spread to Jingzhaoyin, and continued to spread to all directions to the west...
Zheng Gan, the noble lord of the Guanzhong gentry immediately gritted his teeth whenever he heard this name. He wanted to tear out his skin, scrape his bones and spread his ashes, because not only did this guy not kill himself on the spot immediately after the failure of the rebellion, he actually started biting and biting him.
A large number of Guanzhong gentry who had contact with him also provided evidence including letters, finances, and even soldiers and armors, etc. As a result, except for the Wang family in Zuo Fengyi and the Hu family in Jing Zhaoyin, the entire Sanfu area was
Five families were implicated one after another, and they were immediately arrested and imprisoned. Those who ransacked their homes, and those who asked to behead.
It is said that there is more evidence, and more guilt is beginning to be pointed at other people...
This makes it impossible for people to live!
This adjustment of the Guanzhong pattern was unexpected for these nobles. When Fei Qian, the general of Zhengxi, reappeared on the land of Sanfu, it represented the failure of some people, and from a certain
Personally speaking, since Zhengxi still controls the third auxiliary, such a purge is naturally inevitable, but now that the coverage is getting wider and wider, these nobles of the Guanzhong gentry can't help but start to feel frightened.
Nowadays, in the land of Sanfu, there is really more fear than respect for this person, let alone loyalty and love. However, seeing that the combined troops of the Southern Xiongnu and the Hongnong Yang family were neatly dealt with, they
Do these so-called common people dare to do anything else?
Moreover, this person also held some kind of public trial. He looked at the petty officials on the stage and chanted a long list of guilt, looked at the ordinary people who were talking about their crimes, and looked at the nobles who had to suffer a share of the crime before they died.
My dear, some are sad and some are happy, some are depressed and some are melancholy...
Especially the so-called crime discussion session, I don’t know how this person came up with it. After the clerk recited a long list of guilt, there was someone who was responsible for carrying out the eight rituals according to the Spring and Autumn Rites, but at the end of the day, the person responsible for this matter
The clerk eagerly asked those unlucky guys what else they had, and even brought out some of their sporadic good deeds in the countryside. When it was still not enough to offset the guilt, even the people watching in the audience felt sorry for these unlucky guys.
The guy is anxious.
These noble nobles in Guanzhong, don’t they have shit under the curtain on their butts?
So this Bapi is really useful?
So to say……
But no matter what, this biting trend really cannot be expanded any further!
…………………………
Xu Shu walked in, bowed his hands, and said with a smile: "Shi Yuan sent people to report that Wei Duan, Wei Xiufu, Du Ji and Du Bohou are all willing to serve..."
"Wei Duan and Wei Xiufu?" Fei Qian frowned, then took a look at a letter from the table and said, "Wei Duan is quite alert..."
On the letter in which Zheng Gan confessed to having relevant correspondence, Webster's name was clearly written on it.
Fei Qian thought for a moment and said: "Now that these people understand, then this area of Guanzhong will be like this for the time being..."
Killing is never the goal.
In exchange for benefits, Zheng Gan will still be sentenced to death, but his youngest son can change his identity, change his name, and leave the area controlled by Fei Qian with part of his family's wealth and manpower.
Zheng Gan finally agreed and chose to let his youngest son go south to Jiaozhou, and then told all the matters and evidence in detail...
As for Zheng Gan, life is more valuable than death.
Xu Shu nodded and said: "I will obey the order of the king." Xu Shu really admired Fei Qian's arrangements. He could kill people with tricks, and he killed these people until they were speechless and couldn't find anything.
The flaw in attacking and slandering was simply shocking to Xu Shu.
In fact, things are very simple. Fei Qian just followed the way of later generations.
Killing people, directly leading troops to attack Wubao, arresting people and killing them privately, is called tyranny. If you then add it to the artistic process of the right-wing nobles who control the countryside, it will be difficult for your reputation not to be bad.
And trying to recover this stinky reputation is even more difficult than climbing to the sky.
A very simple example, if a stranger says that someone is a good person, and an acquaintance says that person is a bad guy, who is more trustworthy?
Why is this happening?
In fact, it is an asymmetry of information.
The gentry and powerful people all live in the countryside, ranging from several generations to dozens of generations. Not to mention the tenants who depend on them, even to the ordinary farmers and people around them, who is an acquaintance and who is a stranger
People? Whose words are more trustworthy?
Just like Sun Ce, when he saw that the Jiangdong nobles were unhappy at first, he took action, and then his reputation became so bad that he could not get it back until his death.
Killing is not difficult at all. If you just go up with a knife, you will be like a bandit, and the blood will be no different from that of a barbarian. If an ordinary nobleman kills, he will use a cloth such as justice, morality and morality to cover it, so that no one can see the cloth.
Blood comes.
But Fei Qian didn't want this.
For Fei Qian, it was too crude to directly send troops to raid homes and ask for executions. Even if the beautiful girls in later generations wanted to kill people, they would still know how to find a moon to represent it, not to mention that in later generations, after witnessing all kinds of democracy and various
After this dictatorship, I deeply realized the benefits of the law.
Killing also requires killing flowers. Even if a person dies, there must be flowers. Different articles also need to make contributions and squeeze out the last value. This is the most basic method of killing that will be used by all political systems around the world in later generations.
.
It is useless to threaten those who are determined to die with death, but if their will is destroyed before death, their position is shaken, and they are swept away from the righteous side to the evil side,
Go in the dirty, sinful direction. In fact, many people will even say thank you to the person who killed them at this time...
In this era when fame is above all else, Fei Qian's actions undoubtedly destroyed the last energy of these people.
The one whom Fei Qian ordered to be killed in the end was unknowingly ruined by his reputation and stinking up the streets. The ordinary people who were watching would naturally be happy to tell what they saw and heard, whether they were proud or mysterious.
Share it, in the Han Dynasty when entertainment projects were scarce, the speed at which such things spread among the lower classes of the people was quite astonishing!
You must know that even two songs are worth spreading by word of mouth. How can such a dramatic event stop the blazing gossip hearts of ordinary people?
In this way, even if the rest of the noble nobles want to save the reputation of these people and say that these people are unjustly accused, it is already too late...
These people have certain responsibilities. Should they be killed? Should they be killed?
Damn, deserve to be killed.
So does General Zhengxi, who killed these people, represent someone who is doing justice for heaven? Is he a good person?
Whoever kills the bad guys is naturally a good guy.
The thinking of the people at the lowest level is very simple. With such a simple equal sign, the reputation of Fei Qian, the general of the Western Expedition, has been completely established in the land of Sanfu. Even these nobles from the Guanzhong gentry want to stop him.
Can't stop it...
Especially at the end of every public trial, there will be a high-profile announcement from a petty official. General Zhengxi said that in view of the disasters in Guanzhong in the past two years, General Zhengxi will pay tribute to the emperor for this year's autumn harvest, regardless of whether there is abundant land or poor land.
, all are 30% off!
Really going to the emperor?
Of course, just choose a time to burn incense and pray...
The emperor is related to God. If God disagrees, he will naturally have opinions. If God does not express his opinion, then it means that the emperor acquiesces...
Anyway, farming in Guanzhong has just started on the right track, and Zuo Fengyi has been damaged a lot, so even if you collect the full amount, you may not be able to get much more...
But the farmers and people at the bottom don't understand this at all. They just know that General Zhengxi is good! General Zhengxi kills bad guys! General Zhengxi reduces taxes!
The people at the bottom were naturally happy to see and support such a general who conquered the west. However, the other noble families and powerful rightists in Guanzhong who should have jumped up to oppose him were attracted by another thing Fei Qian did at this moment.
Eight Pi.
In fact, it weakened the imperial power and safeguarded the rights and interests of some nobles. At least life was no longer the responsibility of the emperor to fight and kill whenever he pleased, but had more or less rules and laws.
Therefore, powerful emperors, such as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, did not follow this method at all. They killed whenever they should. Even the Eighteenth Emperor was of no use. But Fei Qian is not the emperor now, so the stronger the awareness of imperial power, the more likely he is to kill Fei Qian.
The more unfavorable it is to hide in the future, so it is better to take out the Eight Pis and put them in front of you openly.
This was something that the nobles once dreamed of. Even after Cao Wei, they emphasized it and wrote it into the law, but now Fei Qian is actually operating it!
In the past, the Eight Pisces or Eight Disciplines were just an excuse used by the emperor to pardon certain specific people. The emperor would do whatever he said. Even if they were no longer among the eight Pi Pis, they could reduce their guilt for some trivial reasons.
Even if he said no, even the Marquis would kill as he said, without any ambiguity at all, and most of the time it would be cryptic, and he would not advertise it as widely as Fei Qian did.
This incident invisibly distracted the attention of the Guanzhong gentry from these unfortunate guys. People with some political foresight and acumen began to think about Fei Qian's decrees and measures, and then there was the Guanzhong Weishi who had been drifting away.
and Du's act of dependence.
Of course, Webster and Du also used such actions to express their hope that Fei Qian could stop amplifying the situation...
Let's end it now. Fei Qian had no intention of completely escalating the situation.
Fei Qian pushed all the approved documents to the side of the desk, then moved another pile from his side, and said to Xu Shu: "Yuan Zhi is ready, let Ziyi gather troops and horses, and we will set off with you tomorrow.
...Zilong sent a military report yesterday, saying that Huchuquan tribe members had been detected entering the mountain, and they should either be preparing to bypass Diaoyin or Jingzhaoyin..."
"Into the mountain?" Xu Shu frowned.
Fei Qian nodded, rummaged around on the desk, then pulled out a small bamboo tube, which was Zhao Yun's military report, and threw it to Xu Shu.
Diaoyin was snatched back by Ma Yan from Tongguan, which happened to block the way back to Huchuquan.
Tongguan was supposed to cooperate with the outside that day, but Ma Yan was careless and lost Tongguan. In desperation, he had no choice but to flee. Although he collected the remaining soldiers along the way, he still couldn't compete with Yang Jun and Hu Chuquan, and Ma Yan had no choice but to flee.
I was not very familiar with Guanzhong, so I subconsciously chose to return to the north. It happened that Ma Yan had also been stationed in Diaoyin for a period of time, and he knew the terrain and key points of the pass very well. Seeing that there were not many troops left behind in Huchuquan, he dressed up as
The Qiang people took advantage of the carelessness of the Huchuquan tribe and snatched back Diaoyin. As a result, they sealed Huchuquan in Guanzhong.
Fei Qian was able to squeeze out a few days and sit in Linjin. While sending troops to hunt down Huchuquan, he also organized the government affairs in Guanzhong.
It can be considered that Huchuquan was unlucky. He was blocked in Diaoyin. For a while, he was unable to attack by force. The pursuers of Zhengxi were gradually approaching. In order not to be blocked by Zhao Yun and Ganfeng on the rugged mountain road of Diaoyin, they had no choice but to
He turned around in a hurry and looked for another way.
Huchuquan originally wanted to march into Jingzhaoyin or go around Tongguan, but after spending time in Sucheng and being delayed in Diaoyin, he lost the space to move and could only stay in Zhaoyun in embarrassment.
He fled amid the siege of He Ganfeng.
The consequences of looting and burning Su City for the sake of temporary pleasure are shown. To the north of Linjin and around Su City, the large and small Wubao villages are afraid of becoming the next Su City. When they see Huchuquan's troops, they immediately
The cavalry who reported to the expedition to the west had no place to resupply in Huchuquan, and no place to stay. Under the siege of Zhao Yun and Gan Feng's troops, they finally chose to go into the mountains and take a trail in a panic.
And it so happened that Zhao Yun had led his troops on this road before...
