Although Cao Jun promised to provide refugees to the people of Jingzhou, would he honestly give the good ones to Fei Qian and keep the bad ones for himself?
The answer is obvious.
Liao Hua and others lined up in a large formation on the bank of Danshui. Even Cao Zhen, who often came and went, was a little frightened after seeing it. This kind of fear was not the kind of fighting in front of the military formation, but facing the complete
Knowledge that is not within the scope of one's cognition, and then the instinctive flinch and fear of feeling out of place.
There seemed to be lines drawn with lime on the ground, and then the refugees moved slowly within the designated area. Those with more obvious symptoms were left downstream of Danshui, and those who showed no symptoms were within the lime lines.
, was driven into some areas enclosed by curtains...
"That's..." Cao Zhen couldn't help his curiosity.
Liao Hua wore a face scarf and covered his nose and mouth. Although it was not as effective as the masks of later generations, it was somewhat useful at the moment. Seeing Cao Zhen asking, he said directly: "Zidan wants to go and see it, just go there."
...』
Liao Hua had already received instructions from General Fei Qian of the Hussars. If Cao Jun wanted to see and learn some basic measures to prevent the plague, he would openly let them watch them, but he would never take the initiative to teach them.
Although Liao Hua is not very clear about Fei Qian's goal in doing this, it does not hinder Liao Hua from executing it. Anyway, it is placed under Xiangyang City, beside Danshui. No matter how hard he tries to cover it up, it is difficult to escape from Cao Jun's eyes. It might as well be
Just like this, it also shows the atmosphere.
In fact, Fei Qian's move did not have a very complicated intention.
It's very simple. People will only cherish what they work hard to get. If Fei Qian directly told Cao Jun about the prevention and treatment methods of the plague, Cao Cao, Xiahou Dun and others would even think that Fei Qian had some conspiracy hidden in it.
On the contrary, it will delay the treatment of the plague.
If the number of refugees here in Jingzhou increases with the plague, it means that there will definitely be more sick people here in Feiqian. Don't expect Cao Cao, Xiahou Dun and others to carry forward any selfless spirit, so if Jingbei can control the spread of the plague,
This means that there will be fewer sick refugees in Feiqian.
In addition, if the entire Jingzhou is ravaged by the plague, it will inevitably lead to a serious recession in terms of economy, population, etc., and this recession will last for a long time, maybe even ten or twenty years. In this way
As a result, the Jingzhou area, which originally provided a large amount of economic exchanges, will become a barren area with no output. The original economic and trade exchanges between Jingzhou and Guanzhong will be severely hit...
Therefore, the defensive methods that Cao Jun tried hard to copy and the prescriptions for treating plague that he secretly copied actually benefited Fei Qian to a certain extent, but they were just very obscure. At the same time, even if the upper echelons of Cao Jun discovered this problem, they would not be able to do so.
If you don’t follow Fei Qian’s path...
Cao Zhen went and was scolded back by some tough women in front of the curtain.
Behind the curtain is of course the area for bathing and disinfection. There are men on one side and women on the other. When Cao Zhen heard a female voice, he naturally turned to the female side, and then he was scolded by a group of aunts...
Although there are some women taking a bath in the curtain, it is completely different from what was shown in some so-called TV dramas in later generations. Most of the women who work for the common people have to work in the fields. Not only have dark skin, but they are simply unable to take a bath due to malnutrition and other reasons.
Compared with scholarly ladies, there is no such thing as beautiful scenery.
In addition, when it comes to women's fighting power, they are two completely different creatures before and after marriage. Even the aunt-level figures did not recognize Cao Zhen, thinking that he was just a pervert who was peeping, and suddenly he felt like scolding, but Cao Zhen was better at least.
It is not easy for the high-ranking gentry children to get angry. After all, if it is known that he not only peeped on ordinary women bathing, but was also discovered and killed them in an attempt to silence them, then after word spreads about Cao Zhen's character and reputation,
Tsk tsk...
"Hehe, this, this... the Qiusi really turned around?" Cao Zhen could only find a topic in embarrassment.
Liao Hua shook his head and said, "How could I know about this? It's just that Hussar is not in Zhuyang..."
So where did the hussar general Fei Qian go?
Everyone in Cao's army never expected that Fei Qian had already arrived in Wancheng.
Because Cao Cao had withdrawn his troops and returned to Xudu, the current military emergency situation around Wancheng had been resolved. In addition, the caravan that was originally stranded in Wancheng left at about the same time, so Fei Qian did not raise a banner and took advantage of the situation.
Under the cover of the caravan, they arrived in Wancheng.
Wancheng was originally the seat of Nanyang, and its previous defense system was not very bad. However, due to Cao Cao's massive attack, it was still somewhat damaged. It is now being repaired and restored under the command of Xu Huang and Huang Zhong.
Many ordinary people did not know Fei Qian. They heard about the Cavalry General every day, but most people had no impression of what the Cavalry General looked like, whether he had three heads and six arms, or a green face and fangs.
For ordinary people, it may be difficult to understand why Fei Qian deliberately left Wancheng as an enclave. Some even think that Fei Qian's offer of Wancheng in exchange is a loss, but Fei Qian doesn't think so.
When Wancheng was separated from Nanyang County and became a commercial center in a certain sense, it was already separated from the meaning of a general city. Just like Fei Qian's return to Wancheng this time, it was not just to visit relatives and friends.
.
After arriving in Wancheng, the first thing to do was naturally to find Huang Chengyan.
Huang Chengyan first accepted the etiquette from Fei Qian's father-in-law with his chest raised, and then turned around and saluted Fei Qian again. Finally, he ended the trivial aspects of etiquette and entered the hall to wash away the dust and talk to each other.
talk.
Huang Chengyan looked at Fei Qian and felt a lot in his heart.
We haven’t seen each other for many years, but now when I look at Fei Qian, he has almost completely changed. Fei Qian in Jingxiang was like an uncut jade, basically without much brilliance, but now
Fei Qian is a sharply sharpened sword. It seems that if you look at it for a long time, your eyes will hurt and you will look away involuntarily.
The descendants of the Huang family who came with Fei Qian, such as Huang Xu, also went home to reunite. If they had no family, Huang Chengyan arranged the entertainment. Anyway, these people would never feel wronged...
One person attains the Tao, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. Fei Qian has such a status today, which naturally brings about the improvement of the status of many people.
Including Huang Chengyan.
"General Hussars..." After Huang Chengyan signaled his servants to step back, he looked at Fei Qian and spoke.
"Father-in-law, you don't have to do this. Just call your son-in-law by his first name!" Fei Qian waved his hand and said, "I didn't raise my banner here because I wanted to not interfere with the ethics of family ties. It would be unsightly if I just insist on following the common etiquette."
Huang Chengyan nodded, "That makes sense... This makes me feel confident... I don't know how Zi Yuan would judge the current situation of the Han Dynasty?"
This question is what Huang Chengyan wants to ask, what everyone in the Huang family wants to know, and even what many people want to know. Although on the surface it is asking about his views on the situation, it is actually asking Fei Qian about his views on the future.
Arrangement, after all, it can be said that the Huang family is now hanging on Fei Qian's line. Especially in this battle of Wancheng, it is very obvious that one loss will lead to loss and one glory. Fei Qian's
The choice will determine the future of the Huang family, so it is naturally impossible for Huang Chengyan to ignore this issue and not ask anything.
In the current situation of the Han Dynasty, what Fei Qian wants to do, or what his future goals are, has become a very important issue that will even affect the political direction of the entire Han Dynasty.
Many people will always go through such a stage. When they are asked what they want to do in the future when they are young, they always say what they want to do without thinking, such as achieving a small goal and buying a big house for grandma to live in.
Or whether I want to become a scientist in this family or that family, etc., the answer is clear and clear without hesitation.
Then as I grew older, I began to hesitate in answering this question, and sometimes I would even get angry if I asked too many questions...
In other words, incompetent and furious.
In fact, many people become angry in this situation because they realize that they are on the verge of losing control of their future, or have already lost control...
When others don’t mention it, you can still deceive yourself and pretend you don’t know, but when you have to face such a problem, you can’t control your own destiny, especially when you have realized this, and you feel full of powerlessness and
Fear of the future will naturally cause extreme discomfort, and then some people will choose to vent their anger to cover up their panic.
But that’s not necessary, because even a figure like Fei Qian is not very clear about the future direction when facing the wheel of history. It can only be said that Fei Qian knows that those roads are wrong, so he tries his best to promote them.
Just turn the wheel and no longer go down the wrong road.
However, when history takes this new path, will it deviate to a more wrong path in the future?
Feiqian cannot guarantee it either.
"The big man is still the same, and so is your Majesty..." Fei Qian paused slightly, then said two "still the same", and then said, "However, old shortcomings need to be eliminated, and serious illnesses need to be cured..." Fei Qian knew what Huang Chengyan was most concerned about, so
There was no wandering around in the clouds and fog, and the answer was given directly.
"Good..." Huang Chengyan nodded slowly.
At this level, Huang Chengyan could no longer give Fei Qian any specific action suggestions, nor could he provide any guidelines for action. He could only say that Fei Qian went out to experiment on his own, but for the "unification" that Fei Qian said in one
The big man, His Majesty's remarks still expressed a considerable degree of approval.
If Fei Qian really wants to follow Wang Mang's path, Huang Chengyan will most likely have no choice but to follow him. After all, the relationship is too deeply involved. Even if he denies that Huang doesn't know or understand, others won't believe him.
In fact, the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Western Han Dynasty can be said to be two completely incompatible dynasties. Whether it is in terms of political philosophy or lineage tracing, except for the fact that they both have the surname Liu, the rest can really be said to be completely different.
Even the ancestral temple of the royal family has been built separately, so what kind of inheritance is it?
However, at the time of Liu Xiu, the landlord class, which controlled most of the power, was extremely opposed to the "new" dynasty, so Liu Xiu wisely chose to stick to the "old" and still call it the Han Dynasty instead of using other names.
Such a move had immediate results, and the world was quickly pacified...
Wang Mang imagined things too simply, and did not realize that his path was like walking on a glacier. It was difficult and dangerous, and one wrong step could lead to disaster. When Wang Mang touched the fundamental interests of the landlord class, what Wang Mang could control was lost.
It was too little, even a little illusory, so it was shaken from the bottom and collapsed.
But now Fei Qian said that he was only going for a certain degree of reform and improvement, and he was still a big man, and he was still His Majesty. The meaning was very clear, and naturally it was more acceptable to ordinary people, which also made Huang Chengyan put down the stone in his heart.
As for the extent of reform and improvement in the future, it depends on whether Guangdian will be 404...
In the minds of many people in the Han Dynasty, as long as you are a Han Dynasty, then the problem is not that big. After all, during the three to four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, many families appeared to stand up for the emperor, and when the power was overwhelming, one more Fei Qian
It's not a big deal.
Such as Huo Guang.
When modern people of later generations look at the ancients, they always have an inexplicable sense of superiority. It seems that the ancients were all fools. Modern people only need to throw out a few words and talk about some sour chicken soup to fool the ancients.
I was stunned for a moment, but in fact, the various philosophical theories, human relations, various technologies, etc. that ancient people were able to come up with under such simple conditions are still amazing to later generations.
Rather than saying that Huo Guang failed to deal with the Huo family's problems when he was alive, it is better to say that Huo Guang's tiger father gave birth to a son. After Huo Guang's death, the Huo family group headed by Huo Guang's son was not only unaware of the emperor's new trends,
Instead, relying on the special relationship between the empress dowager and the empress, he became even more domineering, extravagant and beyond control, and even jumped over the wall to prepare for rebellion. In the end, the emperor used his ministers to join forces to suppress it and killed the Huo family.
Even if Fei Qian really became emperor, wouldn't he actually face the same problems as Huo Guang? Can future generations maintain the entire situation? Is there a good heir who can stand out among his peers? Maybe at that time?
Huo Guang has been aware of this problem, but when faced with his own naughty child who refuses to change despite repeated admonitions, he can only feel helpless...
Of course, this was just Fei Qian's own guess that Huo Guang did not directly kill the emperor about the situation at that time.
Huo Guang could kill the queen back then, and he could also kill the emperor. The reason why he didn't take action was that maybe Huo Guang wanted to use the emperor as a test for his children. If he succeeded, he would reach the top. If he failed, he would be doomed.
When Huo Guang came to power, he climbed up from the sea of corpses and blood. He fought his way through political struggles, deposed the emperor several times, and confirmed the authority of the Huo family. Then he thought that his son could do the same, but he didn't.
Thinking that his son just seemed okay.
Perhaps the same was true for Cao Cao in history.
If Cao Pi could destroy Shu and Soochow, and then advance further, the Cao family would have been able to last longer, and perhaps the Sima family would not murmur privately.
As for the subsequent battle between Sima Yi and Cao Shuang, it was not so much a political conflict between the two people as it was an interest entanglement between the Cao family headed by Cao Shuang and the Jiyu gentry. The stupid and incompetent Cao Fang was wrong
After judging the situation, the original balance between Cao Shuang and Sima Yi was out of balance. In the end, Cao Shuang occupied a large number of key positions and also greatly harmed the interests of other noble clans. Finally, when Sima Yi launched the Gaopingling Incident
, which is almost like a hundred responses to one call.
Yuan Shu, who has learned from the past, and a large number of people have proved that "slowly becoming king" is the most correct approach. Revealing extraordinary ambitions prematurely is not something worth boasting about.
Therefore, after seeing Fei Qian who was still calm, Huang Chengyan was also very pleased, "I am very relieved to see Zi Yuan so understanding of world affairs... Now I don't know where I can share my worries with Zi Yuan?"
Fei Qian nodded, without any courtesy, "I also ask my father-in-law to move to Guanzhong as soon as possible..."
"Move to Guanzhong?" Huang Chengyan was stunned for a moment. Although he said that he had some concerns in his heart, when he actually faced it, he still hesitated.
No one likes to stay away from their homeland, and the older they get, the more so. But this time, although Wancheng has temporarily escaped the shadow of war, who can guarantee that there will be no next time? There are no troops stationed within two hundred miles, and no troops are stationed within two hundred miles.
It only took four or five days to get to Wancheng. Even if Wancheng built a beacon tower, it might not be possible to send troops from Guanzhong in time.
Wancheng is an enclave and not worthy of heavy bets.
Therefore, as an important part of the scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, the Huang family moved to Guanzhong as early as possible under the cover of a large number of refugees. At the same time, Huang Chengyan, as the older generation, was competing against Sima Hui and Zheng Xuan.
Others can also exert effects that Fei Qian cannot.
For example, Fei Qian treats the older generation such as Sima Hui and Zheng Xuan. If they are in public, they must either not see each other, or they must show a certain degree of respect when they meet. This is the basic etiquette norm. And Huang Chengyan can rely on his elders to show off his elders in front of these people.
Growing old together, there is no need to worry about making jokes, laughing and cursing. Anyway, everyone is almost the same age, and no one is more senior than anyone else...
At the same time, if the Huang family reaches Guanzhong as a whole, it will also have some additional effects.
"Huh..." Huang Chengyan sighed, "I understand, but this matter... involves everyone, it will take some time..."
Fei Qian nodded.
Although Huang Chengyan can make the decision, he also needs to inform many other people that after living in Jingxiang for such a long time, it does not mean that he can just carry the bag and leave. Farms, shops, various utensils, and various assets are all needed
Processing also takes time.
"There is no rush..." Fei Qian said, "Cao Jun is asking me for help now, so he won't do anything for a while... But if it happens after spring next year, it's hard to say..."
"Spring will start next year?" Huang Chengyan frowned, and then said thoughtfully, "Is there something going on this winter?"
Fei Qian smiled and didn't answer.
"Forget it..." Huang Chengyan nodded and said, "Try to hurry up..." Nowadays, Guanzhong is no longer the Guanzhong of the past. Even in Zaiwan City, you can hear a lot of news about the prosperity of Guanzhong. Therefore, most of the Huang family members are not interested in moving to Guanzhong.
People in the family are definitely not that repellent, but they are just eager to deal with some things that cannot be taken away, and they will suffer some losses.
