Chapter 1752: Everyone has their own changes to pay off their debts)
Everything has different perspectives and different perspectives.
For Fei Qian, the sudden assassination and thieves made him realize that he had become a thorn in the side of many people...
After all, it touched the cheese of many people.
Maybe most people don't really want to take action against Fei Qian, or they don't have the guts to do it, but that doesn't stop them from turning a blind eye or turning a blind eye at certain times.
Provide some help if necessary.
This made Fei Qian couldn't help but think of Cao Cao, and he felt a sense of pity for each other. Even if Cao Cao sent people to assassinate him, if Fei Qian were in Cao Cao's position, he would probably handle it the same way.
Who would like a very threatening person next door to their house every day?
At the same time, it also made Fei Qian feel that if he welcomed the Han Emperor at this time, I am afraid that the world's accusations and indignation against him would be even stronger!
In Fei Qian's mind, messy things came one after another, like gourds and gourds placed in boiling water. As soon as this one rolled up, the other one followed. It was hot to press, and they collided with each other and clicked again.
It was so noisy. Of course, there was also a big gourd with the word Cai Yan written on it...
No matter what kind of woman, big or small, old or young, they basically all have the potential to be boring, more or less. When they enter the boring state, it is like a variety show. Sometimes it is funny, sometimes it is just...
It's a forced smile...
"Well..." Fei Qian looked at Cai Menghulu Yan, thought about what he just said, and then said tentatively, "How about this year when the hypothetical porridge shed is giving out porridge, you will also participate?"
"Really?" Cai Yan immediately raised his eyes with bright eyes (,,???.??,,) "Is it okay?"
really.
Fei Qian laughed twice and said, "Okay." Although he said this, Fei Qian felt in his heart that another gourd with the three words "Huang Yueying" was about to roll up.
Cai Yan seemed a little happy as if he had gotten a new book. He looked around and suddenly said to Fei Qian: "You seem to be a little worried, so why don't I play a piano for you..."
Fei Qian nodded and said, "That's very good."
Cai Yan stood up and greeted Feng Shu to start preparations.
To play the piano, you don't just set up a table and set up the piano and then sit down and play. Instead, you first have to burn incense and purify your hands, then sit quietly for a while to get rid of distracting thoughts. Some even need to change clothes. There are not many steps at all. In addition, there are
There are some requirements or taboos regarding the Seven Diseases, Five Precepts, etc., which cannot be played anytime and anywhere.
When Fei Qian was in later generations, he also listened to some guqin records, MP3s, etc., but he didn't seem to have much feeling about it. But I don't know because the music of the Han Dynasty was not as complex and gorgeous as later generations, but it was more of a foil.
Does it reveal the pure beauty of Guqin, or is there some difference between the live performance and the recorded version?
Or……
When a person has been in an environment without any music for a long time, and suddenly hears music, will it have an additional defense-breaking effect? It is like seeing people every day and feeling annoyed, but if you only see one person every half a year,
, even a stranger will feel more friendly?
With the sandalwood lingering, Cai Yan rolled up one of his sleeves, revealing his snow-white and delicate arms, then gently placed the catkins on the strings, and followed his fingers like butterflies on the strings.
Falling, each note slowly rippled out, calming down the irritability in Fei Qian's heart little by little, just like the messy hair that couldn't be pressed flat when getting up in the morning, finally smoothed down...
The song is over.
Cai Yan stopped, looked at Fei Qian and smiled, "But do you feel better?"
Fei Qian also smiled and cupped his hands: "It's better. It's true that the river is full of water and the Beiliu is alive. It's Shi Jing Hao Hao, and the tuna is hairy... Well, it looks like I'm going to have a good chat with Cai Zifeng..."
Cai Yan was cleaning up, and after hearing Fei Qian's words, he almost lost his grip and threw the piano to the ground. He turned around and glared, then said to Fei Qian: "Okay, I know that the general's official duties are heavy... I, I will take my leave first...
...General, please come back, general..." After saying that, he was like a frightened deer, holding on to his slender ears that turned red at some point, and quickly fled back to the backyard.
Fei Qian didn't take it seriously, laughed twice, nodded, and left the Cai Mansion. He gave a few instructions to the guards of the Cai Mansion before heading to the General's Mansion.
The bleak north wind has begun to blow, and the temperature has dropped sharply.
Although the temperature has dropped a lot in the past few days, normally in a big city like Chang'an, even if the weather changes, the flow of people in the city will still not decrease too much, businessmen will still shout about business, and children will still be carefree.
playing in the street corners and alleys.
However, after a brief period of turmoil, even though Fei Qian took some measures to appease the people and most of the stores began to open for business, the bustle of the past was still not immediately restored.
Fei Qian watched and then entered the general's mansion. Instead of turning towards the political hall, he went around to the backyard.
Huang Yueying was coaxing Xiao Feizhen to play when she saw Fei Qian coming. While grabbing Xiao Feizhen's hands and imitating a salute, she asked: "How is Sister Cai doing?"
Fei Qian nodded and said, "I was a little frightened, but it's nothing serious..."
Huang Yueying first handed Xiao Feizhen to Mo Dou to take out to play, then turned back and asked: "Where are those Huang's crossbows? Have they been found out?"
Although according to the serial number, it does not belong to the products of Feiqian Chang'an or Huang's workshop in Bingbei, but what if it is the early inventory of Bingbei? Before the numbering system was implemented, Bingbei Workshop also produced a batch of
The crossbow machine. Therefore, Fei Qian also sent a few people to Pingyang to count the inventory and check the files.
"There is no problem with Pingyang's inventory..." Fei Qian nodded, sat down and said, "These crossbows probably did not come from us..."
Huang Yueying breathed out, but quickly raised her heart again, frowning and said: "But father's side..." If it's not Chang'an and Pingyang, then it can only be the Huang's workshop in Jingxiang. After all, many craftsmen are
It belongs to the Huang family, and Huang Chengyan himself also has the background to make crossbow machines, so things like crossbow machines are not considered to be full copyright owned by Fei Qian.
"Just write a confidential letter and ask..." Fei Qian said, "Just mention a little bit about Chang'an. My father-in-law must also know what to do..."
Normally, things like crossbow machines are not sold casually. On the one hand, crossbow machines are cumbersome to make and use copper, and copper was basically equivalent to money in the Han Dynasty, so the price is naturally conceivable.
Most people simply can't afford it. On the other hand, Huang Chengyan is not a fool, and he won't do anything to shoot himself in the foot.
So overall, the most likely possibility is that Liu Biao purchased the crossbow machine from Huang Chengyan, and then part of it was lost. It is very simple, in Jingxiang, whether it is in terms of money or relationships, if Liu Biao wants
Naturally, it was impossible for Huang Chengyan to refuse the purchase of some sharper armor. After all, Huang Chengyan and Liu Biao were considered relatives...
So did Liu Biao lose it accidentally, or did he do it intentionally?
This requires further thinking and judgment...
"In addition, I need you to use people from the Mo family..." Fei Qian paused for a moment, and then said, "Two things, one is to secretly investigate who the ranger has contacted before in Jiangling... the other thing is,
Ask someone to inform Mozi and say that someone is looking for him..."
"Use people from the Mo family? Inform Mozi?" Huang Yueying asked with a frown, somewhat confused.
"This Mozi is really forbearing..." Fei Qian chuckled twice, "But having said that, if he wasn't forbearing enough, I'm afraid the Mo family would have been gone long ago... Tell him that I am going to wipe out the ranger disciples. If he comes again
Shrink down, don’t blame someone if you get hurt..."
When Fei Qian was still in Pingyang, the Mo family sent people to contact him, but Mo Zi and Mo Jie only showed up once and did not appear again. Some people from the Mo family who stayed with Huang Yueying seemed to be protecting them.
Huang Yueying is the "Mokist elder", but in fact both parties know that this is also a thread of connection.
When Mo Jie left a token, he may not have meant to place a bet. On the one hand, it was because Fei Qian's workshop in Pingyang attracted Mo Jie's attention. On the other hand, it may be that Fei Qian's ideas were very similar to those of ordinary princes.
It was different, and after talking to Fei Qian, I felt that Fei Qian's thinking was very novel, so Mo Jie acted like an angel investment, betting on some people and property on Fei Qian's side...
Fei Qian always thought that Mo Jie, the angel investor, would definitely come back, so he didn't make any special contact. However, he didn't expect that there would be no news for so many years. It wasn't until the Chang'an thieves made trouble this time that Fei Qian suddenly realized that he was actually
Sources of information at the lower levels of society are very scarce, and can even be said to be almost zero.
If Wang Chang had not provided timely feedback, Pang Tong might not have been able to know that someone had contacted the ranger and prodigal in the city, not to mention that although he had captured Shi Huan and Li Tong, he still missed another group of people in the city.
Short-term martial law and the implementation of the Baojia system can indeed solve part of the problem, but just like the saying of later generations, Fei Qian also knows that after any policy is implemented for a period of time, there will be people who know how to take advantage of the policy loopholes.
, this is not only true for China, it is the same at all times and in all countries...
If the Han Dynasty at this stage is regarded as a pyramid, then whether it is the central court on the top level or the powerful nobles at the middle level, Fei Qian has some tentacles from which he can also obtain some information, but below the middle level, it is relatively
Near the bottom layer, the information sources are basically very vague, and there is basically no information.
Although the bachelor of agriculture and engineering is facing farmers and craftsmen, many of these farmers and craftsmen are still subordinate to the big landlord class and local powerful people. The large landowning class and local powerful people are not friendly, regardless of their friendly character or bad habits.
It is very possible that before the own farmers and craftsmen are fully familiar with the new farming and new tools, they will selflessly let other farmers who are not under them learn them for free.
Therefore, there are actually certain restrictions on the exposure of agricultural and engineering bachelors.
The people of the Mohist family basically moved around in the middle and lower levels of society. From the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, they were composed of a large number of craftsmen, knights and other lower-class people, with the group goal of "promoting the benefits of the world and eliminating the harm of the world".
, taking "the Kong mat is not warm, the ink is not Guizhou" as the code of conduct, and pays special attention to hard practice, "short brown clothes, pigweed soup, if you get it in the morning, you will not get it in the evening", "use brown fur as clothes,
This group of people are willing to live in poverty and hardship, living day and night without rest, and taking self-suffering as their ultimate goal."
Of course, the Mohists at this stage may not necessarily be as hardworking as they were during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but they should still be somewhat reserved so as not to be as corrupted as the Confucian disciples under Confucius.
Therefore, under the policy on the surface, Fei Qian still needs some people who work in the shadows, and these people, who have already been contacted by the Mohist family, are undoubtedly a more suitable option...
Huang Yueying didn't know that Fei Qian had considered it so much, but since it was Fei Qian's request, he naturally agreed.
The cold wind was blowing, and Fei Qian was sitting, looking up at the branches that looked a little desolate because of the fallen leaves, and seemed completely different from before, and suddenly sighed in his heart...
"Yueying..." Fei Qian's voice also became a little lower, and he said slowly, "I found that I have changed a lot... not only my age has gotten older, but also my heart... you know, it was my first time to kill someone.
When I was there, I was so scared that my whole body was shaking, and my legs were so weak from vomiting that I couldn't even stand up. But now..."
Not only that, Fei Qian suddenly remembered that when he first left Luoyang, he had lamented and lamented the tragic fate after Luoyang, but now Chang'an City has been invaded by thieves, and there are also a large number of innocent people.
In such an incident, there were casualties, but Fei Qian found that in his heart, he did not feel the slightest concern for these innocent people who were implicated...
Regarding the previous assassination incident, Fei Qian even began to doubt the people around him, which did not seem to be a good sign. When Huang's crossbow appeared, Fei Qian also listed Huang Yueying as an object of suspicion in his mind, and soon he also
It was ruled out, but this incident not only made Fei Qian feel funny, but also suddenly a little frightened.
When did you become like this?
Just like the action force and the reaction force, Fei Qian is changing the big man, and the big man is also changing Fei Qian. When Fei Qian once again thinks back to the time he was in Luoyang, he was a little middle-class, a little literary, and even a young man.
When I looked at myself a little coquettishly, my heart skipped a beat. Unknowingly, I seemed to have become a different person...
Amidst the soft rustling sounds, Huang Yueying gently moved over, sat beside Fei Qian, rested her head on Fei Qian's shoulder, and stretched out her hand to hold Fei Qian's hand.
"You haven't changed, you will always be my husband..."
The fingertips of Huang Yueying's hands are slightly cold, but the palms of her hands are warm...
