Chapter 2241: A well-raised dog, an unfamiliar wolf
Possessiveness does not require special learning, it is something you are born with. Of course, if you don’t like the word "possessiveness", you can package it into the pursuit of a better life, like food, beautiful things, and beautiful women.
Men or something.
mine.
what's mine is mine.
What's yours becomes mine after I snatch it away.
Children will use brute force to grab something, and then they will laugh when they succeed, and cry when they are robbed.
However, most adults would not do this.
At least I won’t do anything blatantly robbing...
Overt robbery is something that low-class people do. People with some status will change from overt robbery to covert robbery.
Look, does it look a lot more elegant all of a sudden?
Youxian Wang Nanlou naturally disdains to do things like overt robbery, but he can still do it secretly.
After the "public election" suffered a setback during the day, Youxian Wang Nanlou began to send his confidants to run among several large tribes, exchanging information and bargaining chips.
What, then we can happily divide the interests and become good friends together.
Everything went smoothly in the beginning. After receiving the benefits from King Youxian Nanlou, several nearby tribal leaders almost unanimously praised King Youxian as a wise leader, which was enough.
To replace the dead Wuhuan King Louban and become the new king of Wuhuan...
Moreover, some tribal leaders even said that as long as that was in place, he could even express his position directly at tomorrow's meeting! He would not frown even if he pledged his blood to form an alliance on the spot!
Although Nanlou felt a little pain in his heart, he thought that what he put in now would be rewarded more in the future, so he naturally gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement. After all, if this matter could be settled earlier, then the consumption would definitely be less.
The more you do, the more you will gain in the future.
But in the early morning, an accident happened.
Wuyan left directly with most of the people from the tribe directly under the Wuhuan Wanglouban, as well as the rest of the Wuhuan people from other tribes!
Of course, the banner is still fair and just revenge.
"Crazy! They are all crazy! Damn it!" Nanlou gritted his teeth, "These are a bunch of wolf cubs who are not well-raised!"
After all, Nanlou was a little older. He thought that today would be like yesterday, when everyone was eating meat in a basin. As long as he held down the largest spoons, he could decide who would eat the meat in the basin.
Whoever had more would eat less, but he didn’t expect that Wu Yan would overturn the pot as soon as it was served!
And there is a group of people who are going crazy with Wu Yan!
In fact, it is not difficult to understand. The more people there are, the more thoughts they have, and the more difficult it is to unify them. Especially in a tribal system like the Hu people, sometimes a greeting from the tribe leader can change something.
direction. When Nanlou was connected in various directions, Wu Yan must have been busy...
This is very embarrassing.
Nanlou originally wanted to simply force the remaining Wuhuan people to recognize him as the new king, but once Wuyan and some other tribesmen left, these people obviously did not agree with Nanlou, and the remaining Wuhuan people also
Not all of them got the benefits, so even those Wuhuan people who got the benefits hesitated, and they were hesitating about the new king. It seemed that they should probably wait a little longer...
In this situation, Gongsundu, who had conquered Yuyang, sent envoys.
……(*`ェ′*)……
"Father!" Gongsun Kang obviously did not agree with his father's move of sending envoys and the Wuhuan alliance. "Why are you looking for the Wuhuan people? Aren't these people the lackeys of Qiusi?"
Gongsun Du laughed and said, "Wuhuan people are not dogs at all. Even if they look like dogs, they are still jackals... Haha, have you ever seen anyone raising a jackal to maturity?"
"If that's the case, why should we seek an alliance with these guys?" Gongsun Kang was puzzled.
Gongsun Du glanced at his children and suddenly felt a little tired.
Gongsun Du almost changed his family background and became his godson before he achieved his current status. Fortunately, his godfather was also named Gongsun, so he didn't have to change his surname like ordinary people...
Therefore, Gongsun Du had suffered some hardships, but the more his parents suffered, the less willing they were to let their children endure the same hardships. Therefore, Gongsun Kang was not able to experience those hardships.
For Gongsun Kang, his father is the king of Liaodong, and he himself is the prince of Liaodong! Others are rushing to curry favor with others, when will it be their turn to curry favor with others, and what alliances should they make with others?
That's why Gongsun Kang thought that the Xianbei people should be like this and that, and then the Wuhuan people should also be like this and that...
"You don't understand..." Gongsun Du didn't bother to explain too much to Gongsun Kang, so he just said, "Just do what I tell you! Go ahead!"
After Gongsun Du conquered Yuyang, he didn't feel much joy that his dream had come true. Because the process was not easy, it could even be said to be almost arduous. If Sun Quan hadn't sent additional soldiers and warships to support Gongsun Du,
There is simply no way to achieve the surprise effect like the current one.
But the problem is that even in the surprise attack, there is no Su Ke. After biting Yuyang hard, Gongsun Du also realized that his teeth were not as sharp as he imagined...
If you want to hold on to Yuyang, you must ally with Wuhuan in the south and Xianbei in the north. Anyway, Gongsun Du's attitude is that whoever gives benefits is the father!
What does it mean to sign a small alliance with the barbarians? What is there to lose face for?
"The world is so big..."
Gongsun Du clasped his hands behind his back, looked at the sky and sighed.
……(;???)=3……
"Distinguished guests..." The Rouran envoy knelt down on the ground, his hair hanging loosely, "I wonder what you are looking for for us...?"
Rouran people do not have the habit of wearing crowns, and of course they do not have the custom of cutting or shaving their hair. However, after all, disheveled hair is inconvenient for hunting and living, so most Rouran people tie their hair with cloth strips on their heads, and then they also braid it.
Some braids, but most just use strips of cloth.
This kind of custom is most likely due to the lack of smelting technology for iron, copper, and other metal utensils. Because even a small razor, scissors, etc., can only be made by ordering the metal smelting technology tree.
During the Han Dynasty, the Central Plains of China had always been dominated by science and technology. It was not until the Five Husties disrupted China that a large number of Han craftsmen became slaves of the barbarians. Craftsmen from the north fled to the south, and the science and technology trees in these areas were lit up.
As a result, after the Three Kingdoms period, the Hu people gradually began to popularize various styles of washing, cutting and blowing.
Shaving the middle, shaving the sides, shaving the front, and of course shaving and braiding. The braids of my Qing Dynasty in later movies and TV shows have actually been beautified and improved.
The serious Qing Dynasty braid is an area the size of a copper coin, and then a thin braid is formed, which is called "money rat tail".
This hairstyle lasted until the Qianlong period, and the half-shaped yin and yang head only appeared after Xianfeng...
But now, Rouran people lack scissors and don't have razors. Even if they do have them, they are not used by ordinary people, so everyone's hair is scattered and their leather robes are generally not washed. So, what is the image of these people in Rouran?
Of course it’s not that beautiful…
Zhang He didn't show much disgust, because there were even dirtier and smellier things in the battlefield. "We are here to trade according to our previous agreement...well, just to exchange things..."
Zhang He waved his hand and had people place out a lot of things, including pots and pans, scissors, paint boxes, needles, threads, cloth, etc...
Rouran's eyes lit up, "Do these, these things, all have to be exchanged?"
Zhang He nodded, "You can exchange it for... Jun Shuzuo! Come here! Let's talk to him about the price..."
"Follow the order!" The officer accompanying the army saluted Zhang He with a smile on his face, then turned his head and lowered his face, "Come here, look at it carefully... This picture represents this... This picture is that...
』
The Rouran people do not have writing, or have not yet fully formed writing, and often use patterns instead of words to express their expressions. This is also the current situation of most Hu people in the desert, and now Chinese characters are gradually becoming a common language in these areas along with trade.
Text replacement for...
Perhaps these people don’t know what cultural export is, nor what cultural victory is, but what they are doing is promoting the spread and dissemination of Chinese characters, Chinese language, and Chinese culture to the surrounding areas, suppressing the native culture of the Hu people.
, even swallowing and eliminating it.
Everything is invisible, just like the wind in the desert. Although you can feel it and see the trajectory of the wind on other objects, it is simply impossible to see the body of the wind or even block the movement of the wind.
of……
The tricolor flag is flying high.
Zhang He stood under the flag, looked at the seemingly endless desert, shook his head and sighed: "If there had been no scout detection and no map index before, who would have been able to find anyone in this vast desert?"
Gan Feng also nodded, "According to the map, we are only halfway through, and the royal court of the Rouran people is still deep in the desert... tsk tsk..."
Zhang He glanced at Rouran, who was discussing the price with a military officer, and said, "It's okay, sooner or later they will take our people to find them..."
Gan Feng also glanced slightly sideways, and then laughed a few times, "Before, I thought that the Lord was doing business. It was so boring. I just killed him and it was over... Now think about it, I didn't do these businessmen."
, where can you find people in such a big place?」
Zhang He smiled and said nothing.
"By the way, are these guys rich?" Gan Feng suddenly looked back and said as if he just remembered, "I'm afraid the fur is not worth much, right? In exchange for cattle and sheep? They may not be willing to give it up."
Zhang He nodded and said, "The average Hu people are really reluctant to exchange cattle and sheep...but there will always be people who are willing...just like the Southern Huns back then..."
……?(·?·)?*~●……
"Pingyang City!"
"Red!"
"Wow oh oh..."
Fei Zhen yelled, and was quickly patted by Huang Yueying, "Shut up! Sit upright!"
Although Feizhen was born in Pingyang, she left when she was very young. Although she has some vague impressions, most of them have been forgotten. Therefore, when she arrived in Pingyang, she felt a mixture of familiarity and strangeness.
Feizhen is full of freshness and curiosity about Pingyang City.
Xun Chen took the officials from Pingyang to Baili to meet him. After the meeting, he was filled with emotion for a while. Now he is accompanying Pei Qian, pointing out the surroundings, and reporting some changes over the years to Fei Qian.
From a certain perspective, Fei Qian is the owner of this land. This is Fei Qian's fiefdom, and everyone and everything on this land belongs to Fei Qian.
This kind of authority can make people addicted without knowing it, and it can also cause people to fall in an invisible and colorless way.
Only a few people can maintain a clear mind in such an environment.
In Xun Chen's view, Fei Qian belongs to such a minority.
Since the beginning of the Han Dynasty, countless people have been granted lordships, but there are only a few people who can keep their composure and continue to develop upwards. Most of them have fallen into addiction, and then after two, three, or at most five generations.
, that is, the country was destroyed and the princes were eliminated. They only left some names, but they could no longer bring any blessings to their descendants.
Well, of course there are descendants who don’t need it at all…
They are all dead, so what blessings do they need?
Of course, this also had the effect of cutting down the vassal order, but the main reason was that these descendants did not have the ability to make progress, and even lacked the ability to maintain.
Therefore, Xun Chen was not only reporting to Fei Qian this time, he had also been observing Fei Zhen carefully. After seeing that Fei Zhen did not show any naughty habits, crying, scolding, etc., Xun Chen felt relieved.
Come,
For Xun Chen, Fei Qian represents the present, while Feizhen represents the future.
Now that I see that there are constraints and directions for the future, I am naturally overjoyed.
Equally excited are the people of Pingyang...
Amidst the deep sound of war drums and melodious horn sounds, the main gate of Pingyang slowly opened.
Behind the guard of soldiers on both sides of the road, there was a crowd of people standing. Countless people waited with bated breath, looking at the three-color battle flag coming slowly from a distance, and the hussar general under the battle flag.
This is their commander, the legend of the great Han!
This is the hussar who controls Xijing, the great Han Dynasty, and rules half of the world!
This is the owner of Pingyang, the powerful Hou Fei Qianfei of Pingyang in the north and south!
Amid the cheers of the people and soldiers, all the gates along the way from the gate of Pingyang City were opened, and the vehicle escort went straight into the city, passing all the way to the Hussars General's Mansion in Pingyang City.
"Welcome the Marquis back to the mansion!" In front of the square outside the mansion, all the servants in charge and servants had already knelt on the ground early to welcome the arrival of Fei Qian and his party.
After receiving the news that Fei Qian was going to return to Pingyang for a period of time, the stewards in the government office went crazy. They wanted to wash every tile and brick inside and outside the house three times with water, and then wipe it again.
Three times. If there is still time, I would even want to lick it three more times...
Before Xun Chen arrived at the government office, he said goodbye very knowingly and left. Although the report could not be completed in a few words on the road, he was not in a hurry.
The great affairs of the country lie in sacrifice and military affairs.
The same is true for a family. So other things can be put aside for the time being and dealt with later. The first thing Fei Qian and others did when they entered the government office was to go to the ancestral hall to worship Fei's ancestors.
Add incense to those tablets that represent ancestors...
Fei's ancestral hall is solemn and solemn.
As the eldest son, Fei Zhen naturally had to offer incense along with Fei Qian, and then kneel down and kowtow.
After the faint blue smoke of sandalwood slowly rose, the originally gloomy ancestral hall seemed to have an added smell of fireworks.
Fei stood silently for a moment in front of the burial place, and then withdrew. Instead of taking Fei Zhen directly back to the inner courtyard, he took Fei Zhen around to the side hall of the ancestral hall.
"Father..." Fei Zhen asked, "Where are you going?"
"Let me show you something..." Fei Qian said slowly, "It took your mother a year to make it with her own hands..."
In the side hall, there are no portraits of ancestors or altars. It looks empty with only a huge square table, and in the middle of the table, there is "a city"...
A miniature model city.
Feizhen was attracted by this model at the first sight. She hurriedly lay down beside the table and stared at the model city with wide eyes, "Oh... this is made by my mother... oh..."
"Do you know where this city was made from?" Fei Qian also stood beside the table and said slowly.
Feizhen subconsciously wanted to shake her head, but suddenly she saw something, moved her steps, and then stared at the seal characters on the shrunken city gate, "This... this is... Pingyang City? How is it possible?!"
"How is it impossible?" Fei Qian asked.
"No..." Feizhen pointed at the model city, "This... this city is so... so broken... how can it be Pingyang City?!"
Fei Qian looked at the model bit by bit, and the previous time in Pingyang seemed to slowly appear in his eyes.
Scaffolding beside the rammed earth of the city wall that collapsed and was being repaired...
The street wall had to be blocked because it hadn't had time to be cleaned...
Twenty or thirty saplings were transplanted in advance along the streets in the east of the city, but in the end only half of them survived...
The well was re-excavated...
The large piece of land that has just been sorted out and has not yet had time to build...
"This is Pingyang City at that time..." Fei Qian said slowly, "When your father came here, it was almost in ruins... There were no people farming, only Bai Bo's thieves... The company above the street
There are no stores, and even the residence can only be temporarily lived under the broken eaves and broken walls..."
When Fei Qian started using models to make real terrain scenes, Huang Yueying couldn't help but make such a topographic map of Pingyang City because of itchy hands. Of course, by the time Huang Yueying arrived in Pingyang, Pingyang had changed a lot, so some things were
Fei Qian told Huang Yueying, and then he made it bit by bit.
"Fei..." Fei Qian knocked on the table gently, "It was in such a city that was almost in ruins that I climbed up... This is the first place and the beginning. As for the future,
Where I will go and what I will become depends on what I do in the future, and it also depends on you..."
"Look at me?" Feizhen pointed at herself.
"Yes...so, I brought you here..." Fei Qian nodded, and then looked at Fei Zhen, "I just want to tell you the last secret of the Fei family..."
Feizhen was startled for a moment, straightened her clothes, raised her hands and said solemnly: "Father, please tell me!"
Fei Qian nodded, and then slowly said three words...
