A ray of sunlight passed through the screen window and fell into the house, reflecting in the inner hall and the pavilion. Above the bed, there was a gauze curtain surrounding it, and there was no wind. Within the thin gauze curtain, a slender and weak figure rose and fell.
While sitting, I wiped the sweat from my forehead from time to time...
Vaguely, Fei Qian seemed to feel that he was still on the battlefield, riding on horseback, running wildly, surrounded by soldiers whizzing by, generals shouting for a fierce battle, and the hot blood splashing towards him, staining his face.
It's all over myself.
Unknowingly, Fei Qian was the only one left in the surrounding area. He was surrounded by thick fog. He couldn't see the sky or the ground. He didn't know where he was at all. It seemed that only the strong smell of blood could prove it.
Still on the battlefield.
The hustle and bustle around me also fell silent, leaving only the endless feeling of exhaustion all over my body. I was thinking about the gentle whispering voices in my ears. I wanted to hear what these voices were saying, but I still couldn't hear them clearly despite my efforts.
.
The thick mist that smelled of blood was like a mass, squeezing towards the lonely Fei Qian, one by one, making him seem to be suffocated. The war horses stampeded hard, but the sound they heard did not sound like they were coming from solid ground.
On the contrary, it was like being in the mud, with some strange crunching sounds.
Where is this?
Fei Qian was looking around, when suddenly a bright blood-like light hit his eyebrows, making the sky and the earth turn red. Fei Qian subconsciously wanted to cover it with his hands, but found that his hands and feet were unconsciously
He was being pulled by countless hands, some old and young, male and female, some with exposed veins, some with rotting bones, and they were clinging to him, trying to pull him off his horse!
Fei Qian yelled, struggled to free his hands, pulled out the Zhongxing Sword from his waist, and slashed with the sword, but he only felt his eyes light up...
Looking around blankly, he was still on the bed. The sunlight coming from the window lintel shone on his face, giving him a slight tingling sensation. Fei Qian squinted his eyes and turned his head slightly to look. There was a small figure beside him.
Kneeling in the morning light, he pressed his leg muscles gently, little by little, little by little.
The tips of her swaying hair were tied together by sweat. Even the silk clothes draped on her small shoulders seemed to have been soaked and stuck to her shoulders. When she heard the sound of Fei Qian, she turned around and her face was round.
The big eyes cast a concerned look: "Hey, Mr. Lang, are you awake?"
"Well..." Fei Qian hugged Huang Yueying over, wiped the beads of sweat on her forehead, and said, "Just ask the maid to do it. I see you are tired..."
Huang Yueying smiled crookedly with her big eyes, shook her head, and said: "I'm not tired... Lang Jun is working hard outside, so what does this mean to me... Besides, I should serve Lang Jun..."
Fei Qian scratched his head and said: "Oh, it was too late yesterday. I wanted to talk to you, but I fell asleep for some reason... By the way, how can you still do this?"
Huang Yueying chuckled twice and said: "You can learn from it... I heard from Grandma Li in the yard that most men in the North are horse racing. If they travel a long distance, their feet will inevitably have poor blood circulation, so the people in the North will
Most women know this, and it is said that they have to learn it when they are young... When your husband is away from home, he has to walk hundreds of thousands of miles, and when you get home, you can relieve your husband's fatigue... How about it, it's pretty good, right?"
"Okay, okay, quite okay!" Fei Qian laughed, held Huang Yueying's hand, rubbed her somewhat rough fingertips and said, "You don't know, I ride a horse every day and I feel these two legs.
It’s almost confusing... It’s really much easier with you like this, I’m just lucky to you..."
"No...unfortunate..." Huang Yueying said, suddenly clapped her hands, as if she remembered something, jumped off the bed, and said, "By the way, the Mingguang Armor that Lang Jun mentioned before has been made. I
Let someone bring it to Lang Jun to see..."
Fei Qian raised his eyebrows in surprise and said: "So fast? Well...forget it, I won't read it for now, lest I can't help but want to change equipment for my soldiers..."
Huang Yueying's black eyes, like ink-colored jade, rolled twice, and then said: "By the way, I also knitted a fine sweater for Lang Jun, which can be worn under the armor to keep warm and comfortable. I'll go
Bring it to Lang Jun..."
After Huang Yueying finished speaking, she turned around and left.
"Wait..." Fei Qian quickly grabbed Huang Yueying and said strangely, "What's wrong with you?"
Fei Qian looked at it carefully, but did not let go of his hand. Instead, he held Huang Yueying's hand. He felt that her hand was a little cold and even trembling.
Huang Yueying turned her face away, lowered her head, and avoided Fei Qian's eyes.
After a moment of silence, Fei Qian suddenly felt a heat on the back of his hand. He looked down and saw a drop of water splashing on the back of his hand, scattering in all directions and then sliding down...
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..." Huang Yueying held back her tears and sniffed as she said, "Mother Huang and Aunt Li all said, let me... let me, wu wu, be more open-minded and open-minded.
Temper, wuwu... But, but, when I think about it, I feel...I feel uncomfortable... Wuwuwu..."
Big tears fell down, hitting the back of his hand, hitting the ground, and also hitting Fei Qian's heart. Fei Qian sighed, touched Huang Yueying's head, and her slightly curly slender hair,
The softness wrapped around Fei Qian's fingertips is like the small and warm words between lovers.
"Who did you listen to?" Fei Qian asked in a low voice after a moment of silence.
Huang Yueying sobbed and said: "In the city, in the city... it has spread..."
"Has it spread?" Fei Qian frowned, "What has spread?"
Huang Yueying, who secretly glanced at Fei Qian's expression, was startled and said quickly: "I... Lang Jun... I don't mean that, I... I am, I just feel uncomfortable, it's okay, no... wuwu...
..." Huang Yueying hesitated and recounted what she had heard about Cai Yan.
Fei Qian stood up, held Huang Yueying in his arms, and said, "Silly girl... There is no personal relationship between me and Senior Sister Cai..."
Huang Yueying raised her head, with tears on her face, and stared at her dark eyes like a puppy, as if to confirm the authenticity of Fei Qian's words.
"I'm not going to lie to you..." Fei Qian said, "Don't ruin your senior sister Cai Qingyu..."
"But," Huang Yueying bit her lips and said softly, in a weak tone, "but I think Senior Sister Cai also likes you..."
Fei Qian was stunned for a moment.
Huang Yueying pursed her lips and lowered her head again.
"What are you thinking about!" Fei Qian was somewhat dumbfounded. He stretched out his hand and flicked Huang Yueying's forehead, "If we like it, we must be together? I also liked cats and dogs, and they all came back to hang out with you?"
"Oops!" Huang Yueying covered her forehead.
"Besides, someone must be spreading rumors about this matter behind his back with ulterior motives..." Fei Qian pinched the beard on his chin and said, "It looks like there are still mice in the nest..."
"Ah! Rat?!" Huang Yueying almost jumped up, shaking her little head from side to side. She is not usually afraid of other bugs and animals, but is only afraid of rats. "Where is it? Where is it?"
"Outside!" Fei Qian laughed and said, "Don't think too much, things may not be as you imagine..."
…………………………
Zhengxi General's Mansion, main hall in the front yard.
Fei Qian summoned Xun Chen to discuss matters.
"My lord was born in Heluo, but he is not from a wealthy family..." Xun Chen looked at Fei Qian and did not make any modifications, but said more directly, "Therefore, my lord is in many hidden dangers..."
Fei Qian nodded, without any displeasure, and said, "If you, friend, please speak frankly."
"The second family of Yuan and Yang, Yu Yin of Mengzu, and the former official of the Three Dukes, are widely spread all over the world..." Xun Chen said, his tone was neither urgent nor slow, obviously after thinking for a period of time, "My lord Jian was promoted to Heluo.
However, although Qian Shi has become the leader of the Western Qin Dynasty, the family's reputation is not prosperous, and there is no reason to keep officials in the wild, and the family members are also... well..."
Fei Qian laughed dryly with a "ha" and said: "This matter cannot be urgent. We cannot say that we need more people just because we can have more people..."
Xun Chen nodded and said: "My lord, don't blame me for being too talkative. It is just my lord's family matter, and it is also the matter of the world today..."
Fei Qian waved his hand and said he didn't care. After all, this matter was normal in ancient times, and now Xun Chen has made it clear that he is the leader. Naturally, he is considered a retainer. It is within his responsibilities to give advice and suggestions to the entire big family.
, there is nothing good about duty or disgust.
Xun Chen said tentatively: "My Lord, does he know that Ma Cheng is far away?"
"Ma Chengyuan?" Fei Qian reacted immediately, frowned and said, "Make the side branch his heir?"
Xun Chen nodded and stroked his beard.
It is not impossible to say that there are children of relatively similar family bloodlines. The original head of the Fei family, Feimin, passed away, leaving behind a widow and two children. The eldest son was also married and had a son. If this son was adopted to Fei
It is more appropriate to come under Qian's name, both in terms of seniority and blood relationship. Of course, if Fei Qian opens his mouth, Fei Min will be willing to offer it.
But is this good?
"That's inappropriate..." Fei Qian thought for a moment and shook his head. After all, there are lessons learned from the past. In history, those who adopted adopted children may not always be kind and filial. In most cases, they often turn against each other in the end, even if they are from the previous generation.
Today, it can still be suppressed, but when it comes to the next generation, it is often turbulent and even requires fighting.
Liu Bei is a typical example, let alone Liu Feng and Liu Chan.
And Cao Cao.
Cao Cao's favorite thing to do was to raise wives for others, which caused a lot of problems. Even in the later stages, although Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were Cao Cao's biological children, there were fewer other relevant people involved because of the issue of heirs.
Huh? Yang Xiu alone is scary enough. If Jia Xu didn't make the right choice, he would probably be the one who died.
Fei Qian lightly knocked on the table and said: "Hanzhong and Guanzhong are tentatively decided. How about taking Hedong? It is not difficult to find Zilong and Ziyi. Therefore, someone lives in Pingyang and should stay for a while. Therefore, the issue of heirs
Well, let’s discuss it later…”
Xun Chen nodded and did not give any strong advice. After all, Fei Qian was young now, and if he did not leave Pingyang, he would be relatively safe under the protection of his personal guards. Therefore, he ignored this matter and said: "So,
My lord needs to look after him now... When my lord moved to the north, Mr. Shui Jing gave him the name 'Qian Kun'. Qian is a virtuous hermit, and Kun is a Taoist embryo. Although my lord has made outstanding military achievements and defeated Baibo Xianbei,
After taking over the old land of Yinshan Mountain, there were successive battles in Jibei, Yanqing, Jingyang and other places. Everyone is paying attention there, and the name of the lord is unknown...Now that the lord has entered Guanzhong and taken over Hanzhong, it is the time to become famous all over the world..."
Fei Qian nodded.
This matter can be regarded as a manifestation of the strange inertial thinking of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Of course, for Fei Qian himself, the names of several people changed by Mr. Shui Jing will naturally be famous in future generations, but at the moment, who cares?
Is Mr. Shui Jing a Xiami? Is he as famous as Yuan Wei? Is he as famous as Yang Biao? He is not even as famous as Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu! It was not until Zhuge came out of the mountain and divided the world into three parts that the world finally realized that Mr. Shui Jing was so famous so early.
There is already a prophet who has great insights...
Therefore, Fei Qian's title, except for the Hedong and Hanoi areas where the Sima family has some influence, actually not many people pay special attention to it, so it is not as loud as the title of "General Conquering the West", which is a serious name in the imperial court.
In addition, in the traditional gentry concept, the frontier army is always second-rate. For example, Dong Zhuo and Gongsun Zan, who were born in the frontier army, are not recognized and accepted by the traditional gentry. Even Liu Bei was endorsed by Liu Xie in the later period.
After fighting once, he was able to get rid of his background as a border soldier. Therefore, although Fei Qian had always made outstanding military exploits in Bingbei, in the traditional concept of the gentry in the Han Dynasty, he was just a border warlord. He was nothing like Dong Zhuo, Gongsun Zan, etc.
The difference...
Therefore, Xun Chen's suggestion is based on the fact that Fei Qian has taken Guanzhong, and naturally has to make a change in identity. He is no longer a pure frontier army, but has the strength to compete with the central government!
Of course, Fei Qian also guessed some of Xun Chen's personal calculations, and promoting Fei Qian's name was actually part of the reason for his own name. After all, the Xun family in Yingchuan was also considered a celebrity in Shandong. Although Xun Chen was dissatisfied with the family's arrangements,
After coming to Bingbei, I hope that people in the family can understand that Xun Chen's own choice is wiser. In this way, the Yingchuan Xun family will naturally put Xun Chen on the table again, instead of like before.
In that case, it will be treated as an abandoned child.
And there may be some additional benefits.
There is no problem in Fei Qian's view of small selfishness that does not affect the general background, and indeed, as Xun Chen said, it is time to become famous. However, on this issue, Fei Qian still has some belongings.
