Actually, sleeping with a bearded girl is not a problem at all for the people in Xiaowei Mansion.
After all, from the time when Feng Huishou fed the barbarian girl Amei with his body, and then when Xu Xun was the captain of the transportation brigade, he often took advantage of the opportunity of distributing relief food to spend the night in Hu Renqushuai's camp.
Not to mention the retired soldiers in Xiaowei's mansion, many of them responded to Feng Junhou's call, took root in the frontier, and married Hu women as concubines, or even as house-fillers.
When Feng Junhou heard that Shi Bao had gone to spend the night in the camp of the Xiongnu family, there was naturally a reason why Feng Junhou had mixed feelings in his heart.
The story begins with someone marrying five Hu girls as concubines in one fell swoop.
That's right, this person is Liu Liang, Liu Hanzi, the son of Liu Yan.
Others, Liu Hun, provoked Hu rebels, but Liu Liang provoked Hu women.
The two of them chose the wrong person, but they had different goals but the same purpose. They both made great efforts to stabilize the Hu tribes in the Huangshui area.
Now Liu Hun has become a famous cavalry commander in the Han Dynasty, and Liu Liang has also become famous because of his bravery and fearlessness.
But the reputation is a bit like that...
Of course, this is not the point. The point is the battle at Xiaoguan. Feng Junhou's performance was really too dazzling, and the conservative elements really had nothing to complain about.
The key is that many people in the past thought that Feng Dianzi would shed his skin even if he was not dead, so they made the wrong bet. Afterwards, they were in a panic.
As soon as Liu Liang's incident came out, everyone followed suit and suddenly discovered:
"The captain's mansion led by Feng Wenhe likes Hu girls and favors barbarian girls. It is really unsightly!"
"Animal-like behavior!"
“The official name of the Protector Qiang officer’s office is Protecting the Qiang, but he is actually working with the Qiang and the Hu!”
…
Just spray him anyway!
In this era, even the wealthy Liangzhou clan, which had the most complex relationship with the Qiang and Hu, had the same attitude towards the Qiang and Hu: "When I need you, I will let you rebel; when I don't need you, you will be just cattle and sheep."
That is to say, they didn't think about it later, and after playing with it, they finally got rid of it. This is another story.
But for now, Chinese clothes and clothes are higher than those of Hu Yi. This is the basic understanding.
Whoever can keep the Chinese clothes and honor will be the emperor.
These are Zhang Gong's original words that Zhang Jiu brought with him when he came to Longyou.
Zhang Gong is indeed not a simple person.
Now I have seen some signs, and my vision is vicious. No wonder it can shock the Western Regions.
This is one of the reasons why Feng Yong values the Zhang family in Dunhuang so much.
It was in this atmosphere that someone suddenly accused Qiang Xiaowei of being in league with the beasts. Although it may not be a big deal, it is true that he is against people.
After all, things like Feng Ping’s murder...well, it’s hard to describe in one word!
There is a legend in the middle of Sichuan that King Feng Gui tamed a thousand maidens at night, but now, even in the northern barbaric areas, he has not gotten rid of this bad habit!
Sleep wherever you go!
So after King Feng Gui heard that Shi Bao had slept with the Xiongnu Qu Shuaiyan, could he not have mixed feelings in his heart?
You guys slept well, but I am the one who takes the blame. Do I still want this reputation?
"This Shi Bao...how did he meet that Yan family?"
What happened to Hu Bo's job?
Isn’t he from Northland County?
Why did his wife come to Xiaoguan?
"Oh, this little brother has specifically inquired about it, I know."
Zhao Guang quickly explained, "The Huns used to turn over a certain number of cattle, sheep and horses to the Wei thieves every year. In winter, they could spend the winter in the fortress."
"Now Anping is in our hands, and Hu Bozi was entrusted by the Wei thieves, so he naturally didn't dare to enter the fortress last year. I heard that many tribesmen, cattle, sheep and horses froze to death during the winter."
"No, the weather has just warmed up, so he sent Mr. Yan over to explore the situation."
"My name is Hu Bo Ju Zi Zhi, not Hu Bo Zi."
Feng Yong corrected Zhao Guang's statement.
In the Xiongnu tribe, the status of his wife, the Yan family, was high or not, depending on the support of the mother clan.
Some Yan family members can even be equal to their husbands.
The Yan family in Hu Bo's position was able to lead people out to investigate the situation alone, so it seemed that his status was not low.
Feng Yong thought for a moment and asked thoughtfully, "I remember over there in the Yin Mountains, couldn't the barbarians survive the winter?"
As soon as Zhao Guang heard Feng Yong's question, his face showed excitement. He came over and said, "Brother, this is the reason why I want to go there and have a look!"
"Brother, I don't know. Now under the Yin Mountain, there are many tribes living together, and each tribe is robbing each other of pasture."
"Not to mention that in winter, in order to grab a place to spend the winter, there are constant fights. How can you live comfortably in the fortress?"
"So I'm thinking, if I can find out the situation of the barbarians under the Yin Mountain in advance, if my brother really wants to think about them in the future, wouldn't I be able to charge forward on my brother's behalf?"
What you said makes so much sense, it actually makes my heart beat.
"Who taught you this?"
Feng Junhou looked at Zhao Erlang with suspicion.
Again, Zhao Guang may be able to achieve this kind of overall view in the future, but it is definitely not what Zhao Sanqian can have now.
Zhao Guang was still thinking about lying, but when he saw his brother's cold eyes, he immediately gave up: "I really don't dare to hide it from my brother. Shi Bao told me what he said."
That's pretty much it.
Thinking of that unlucky guy, Feng Yong's expression became a little strange.
Zhao Guang saw the change in Feng Yong's expression and thought that his brother was dissatisfied with Shi Bao, so he quickly said:
"Brother, although that Shi Bao has no moral character, is frivolous, lustful, and greedy for money, he can still be considered a talented person..."
Feng Yong said "tsk", "I don't know better than you what kind of person he is? Do you even need to tell me?"
After all, Shi Bao revealed Cao Zhen's strategic intentions straight away.
It was a pity that I was only testing Shi Bao's words about Guanzhong that there would be a war within a few years, but I did not pay attention to what Shi Bao said at that time about Cao Wei's possible actions against Longyou.
Being in the middle of the situation, I couldn't react in time.
Otherwise, if we had taken precautions early, the battle at Xiao Guan might have been better.
But it just looks better, that's all.
Because even if I could notice it, I was in a bit of a hurry.
If you don't negotiate well with those aristocratic families and don't make arrangements to take precautions, if you turn back in a hurry, the possibility of a fire in the rear is not small, and it takes time to make these arrangements.
But no matter what, these do not affect Feng Yong's evaluation of Shi Bao: He is indeed talented.
However, it is true that there is talent, and it is also true that one is greedy for money.
It was okay to accept Xijun's property. When he returned it, Feng Junhou could clearly see the expression on his face.
In addition, he has sought an official position more than once, which means he loves power.
Okay now, I have to add another word of lust.
When Xu Xun went to spend the night in a Hu camp, there were still a large number of Hu tribes at his disposal.
This Shibao, even the Yan clan of the Huns, was not spared. He was simply a hungry ghost in lust!
Greedy for money, lustful and infatuated with power, no one will be left behind.
"What are you afraid of if you are greedy for money?" Feng Yong glanced at Zhao Guang, "Money? I have plenty of it!"
Among the brothers in the Xinghan Society, one said the other, in the beginning, which one didn’t come here just for money?
That's right, the same goes for you, Zhao Erlang.
As for the love of power, let alone that.
The system of Xinghanhui is basically that those who are able are promoted and those who are unable are demoted. The upward channel is relatively smooth and has not been blocked.
If you don't have the ability, you still want to occupy a position. Looking at the big men, you can count the number of people who can get Feng Junhou to give him this face with just one slap.
And within this number, Adou might say this, but as long as Zhang Xingcai is around, he has no chance.
So as long as you have the ability, there will always be a place for you.
As for lust...
Forget it, when the court said they wanted to keep a concubine for him, he didn't refuse.
Feng Junhou felt that he was not qualified to comment on things like feudal society.
Besides, in troubled times, virtue comes first, and hiring people depends on how they are used.
"It's not impossible to go to the hometown of Beidi County, but you have to have a plan for everything."
Feng Yong pondered for a long time, and then said slowly, "Go back, find that Shi Bao, and ask him to make a plan for you. If I think it is feasible, then I will let you two go together."
If you put a Liu Hanzi in the west, you can't treat each other favorably in the east, so just put a stone-colored ghost in there.
Aren't you a pervert? Then I'll let you be as perverted as you want!
Just as Feng Junhou was thinking this, his waist seemed to suddenly feel a dull pain again.
Zhao Guang didn't care about so much. He was overjoyed when his brother agreed:
"Brother, it's settled, I'll go find him right now!"
With that said, he got up and hurried out.
The right way is that those who are greedy for money and lustful go eastward, but Liu Dahan has already gone to the west.
The weather in Liangzhou always warms up slower than in Shu, especially in Dadou Bago, which has become active again in the past two or three years. Even in April, it is still a little cold.
But this bit of coldness was no longer enough to stop Liu Liang's fiery heart.
In March, when Dadou Bagonxue had just solidified and could barely pass, he had already gathered his men, and under the leadership of the Bald Hair Division, set out for Liangzhou.
A considerable part of the goods of the caravan arriving from Longyou were sold in Zhangye or Wuwei.
But there are also a few who are not afraid of death and want to go to Dunhuang in the far west of Liangzhou, and then go out of Yumen Pass from there, cross the desert, and go to the Western Regions.
Therefore, after crossing the Qilian Mountains, Liu Liang and his party did not stop in Zhangye, but continued westward, which did not arouse anyone's suspicion.
After many caravans came to Dunhuang, they would think of ways to establish relations with the Zhang family.
No one else, because the Zhang family is the biggest local snake here.
More importantly, Zhang Gong, the current head of the Zhang family, not only has a high reputation among the barbarians in Dunhuang, but also has a great reputation in the Western Regions.
Lords and kings of all sizes in the Western Regions have sent envoys to the Central Plains in the past few years to restore tributary relations, and Zhang Gong was indispensable.
At the end of the Later Han Dynasty, when Cao Cao was still alive, many barbarians and wealthy tribes in Hexi took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains and took the opportunity to raise troops to seize the region.
It happened that at this time, the governor of Dunhuang passed away, and the officials of Dunhuang County recommended Zhang Gong to take charge of the affairs of the county.
The rebels took the opportunity to send envoys to unite with Zhang Gong.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Gong not only sent his son Zhang Jiu to the Central Plains to invite the governor, but also tried his best to quell the rebellion.
The current governor of Dunhuang is named Yin Feng. Over the years, he has been implementing the farming policy of the Pre-Han Dynasty, and at the same time sent people to protect the traveling caravans. He can be regarded as a capable official.
In addition, Dunhuang is located in the far west of Liangzhou, far away from the dispute between Han and Wei, and just connected to the Western Regions. The influx of new Han goods has made Dunhuang more likely to surpass Wuwei and become the exchange center between Hu and Han.
The Zhang family is the brand that maintains this pure land.
So when the caravan arrived here, it tried every means to establish a relationship with the Zhang family in order to better communicate between Liangzhou and the Western Regions.
It stands to reason that since the Zhang family is in such a transcendent position, it should be increasingly prosperous.
Unfortunately, the opposite is true.
During the Battle of Jincheng, the uncle and nephew of the Zhang family met a man who was smooth-talking and ruthless. Not only was he defeated, but he was also almost accused of collaborating with the enemy.
In the end, even the Zhang family was more or less implicated.
So in the past two years, the Zhang family has kept a low profile.
As the son of Zhang Gong and the future head of the Zhang family, Zhang Jiu would have become the laughing stock of the Zhang family if he had not shown bravery and fearlessness when he was attacked by the rebels a few years ago.
But today, an equally brave and fearless person came to the door.
"Who is this person? Have you ever informed me of his name?"
The Zhang family's residence is not just for those who want to visit.
However, Zhang's expression changed slightly when he saw the name card sent by his servant.
Because this name card is one of the name cards he sent out.
Anyone who can get this name card will remember it clearly.
"Back to Langjun, the visitor didn't say anything. He only said that he has the same surname as the Emperor."
"Same surname as the Emperor?"
What a loud tone!
Then Zhang's hand holding the name card shook. Could it be that...the imperial court sent someone here?
"Please come in quickly... No, I have to go and greet you personally."
After welcoming the visitor into the front hall and having his servants serve tea soup, Zhang asked:
“May I ask where our guests come from?”
"Someone came from Dongzhou."
"May I ask your surname?"
"Whatever the emperor's surname is, I will also have that surname."
Zhang Jiu twitched his face and said quietly: "The emperor's surname is Cao..."
After hearing this, the visitor showed a half-smile but not a smile: "Master Zhang, that is Cao Cao's treason, not the emperor's."
Zhang Jiu's expression finally changed, and he stood up suddenly: "Bold! How dare you say such treacherous words, are you not afraid that I will send you to the government?"
The visitor smiled calmly and stood still. Instead, he raised his tea cup and tasted it gently. His manner was elegant. It was obvious that he also had considerable experience in tea soup.
Then he looked at Zhang Jiu and said, "Master Zhang, the pseudo-emperor named Cao, it's hard to say whether he can keep Guanzhong in the future, let alone Liangzhou."
"Didn't your Zhang family say that whoever can keep the Chinese title in Liangzhou will be the emperor? Why, what you said to Feng Langjun back then, don't you think it counts anymore?"
Zhang Ju's expression changed again, he stared at the visitor for a long time, and then he sat back down.
"You were...sent by Feng Mingwen?"
"Of course not. I just want to come here to see the people and customs of Liangzhou."
The visitor raised his hand and said, "A certain Liu Xialiang, named Honglang, has met Mr. Zhang."
"Liu Langjun wants to be a lobbyist?"
Liu Liang laughed loudly and waved his hand, "No, no, no. In the battle of Xiaoguan, Feng Junhou defeated Cao Zhen, and the Wei thieves were so courageous that they did not dare to peek into the east. What is the use of lobbying for Liangzhou's affairs?"
Even though Liu Liang had been suffering at the hands of Feng Tubou, he was still a member of the Han clan, so he was calm and his appearance was quite good.
Zhang Jiu, on the other hand, couldn't help blurting out when he heard the words "A battle at Xiaoguan", "A battle at Xiaoguan, is it serious?"
In Liangzhou in winter, there will be heavy snow and road closures, making it difficult for news to travel.
After the beginning of spring, bits and pieces of news from Guanzhong finally came continuously, but most of them were messy and too delayed.
Even the rumors about Feng Yong's death in Xiaoguan that were spread in Longyou a few months ago were copied and spread in parallel with the news that Feng Yong defeated one hundred thousand Wei troops.
These inconsistent news made Liangzhou restless.
When Zhang heard Liu Liang mention the battle at Xiaoguan, how could he hold back?
Liu Liang came back this time just to spread the news widely. He didn't hold back at the moment and told Zhang everything he knew.
After Zhang heard this, he was stunned on the spot.
After a while, a strange thought suddenly occurred to him:
I was able to survive Feng Mingwen's hands back then... Could it be that I was really lucky?
