Except for Fei Long, everyone was attacked by the Hehuang Qiang people when passing through Zhangye County, and no one was spared.
Fei's belongings were also looted by Qiang thieves. In response, Cao Peng, the governor of Hexi County, issued a stern warning to the Qiang people in Hehuang: The murderer must be handed over as soon as possible, otherwise the imperial army will march to Hehuang.
Horses trample the Qiang.
For a time, the situation in Hehuang area was changing.
Wang Mai, the fake western captain, led his troops to Longqi City and watched with eager eyes.
And the old Qiang King of Shaodang even more swore that if anyone dared to conceal something or hide a murderer, he would not be lenient...
This was the biggest event that happened in Liangzhou just after the first month of the 10th year of Jian'an.
Cao Jun was gearing up and stationed troops in Zhangye County. The Qiang tribes in Hehuang, especially those Qiang tribes that were hostile to Cao Jun, immediately withdrew from Hehuang and fled to Huangzhong. God knows, will Cao Jun take this opportunity to settle accounts with them?
On the contrary, tribes such as the Rushaodang Qiang were not afraid at all.
They have surrendered to the imperial court and submitted a list of names, and they can be regarded as serious Han people.
Among them, Shaodang Xiaowang, that is, Ke Wu, the son of the old Qiang king, changed from a pheasant to a phoenix, and suddenly became an official of the imperial court. Now he serves as Army Sima in the Western Duwei Administration Office, which is Longqi City. Army Sima
, but he only commanded a group of 800 people. But for the Shaodang Qiang, it was a serious military position and could be entitled to a salary. The Shaodang Qiang had been suppressed by Ma Teng for nearly twenty years, and now someone finally had an upright position.
Became an officer.
For this reason, Lao Wang of Shaodang went to Guzang to visit Cao Peng with generous gifts.
Because he knew very well that although Ke Wu's position as military commander was not prominent, it represented the Han family's recognition of the Qiang people.
From now on, the life of the Qiang people will definitely be much easier!

"Cao Ji is the governor of Liangzhou?"
Fu Wan was so angry that he kicked over the table and flew into a rage.
He does have enough reasons to be angry!
Originally, he planned to contact the wealthy families in Guanzhong, hoping to push Wei Duan to the position of Mu in Liangzhou. When the Yuan family in Hebei was about to be destroyed, Liu Biao in Jingzhou could not rely on it, and the Xiongnu in the south could not save the fire from the water farther away, the Han Dynasty
Our hope can only be pinned on the powerful families in Guanzhong. Compared with the past, the powerful families in Guanzhong have indeed declined a lot...
After Liu Xiu established his capital in Luoyang, the rise of the Guandong clan was destined.
The Guanzhong tycoons have experienced two hundred years, and although they have grown to a certain extent, they are far inferior to the growth of the Guandong gentry. Dong Zhuo's rebellion was originally an excellent opportunity for the Guanzhong tycoons. But Wang Yun did not expect that
He beheaded Dong Zhuo and caused great chaos in Guanzhong. Li Jue and Guo Si wreaked havoc in Guanzhong, which greatly damaged the strength of Guanzhong's heroes.
But even so, the Guanzhong gentry are still a force that cannot be underestimated.
Especially after the Han Emperor returned eastward and established his capital in Xu County, a large number of Guan sergeants went to seek refuge.
Although they did not gain much power, they still became a potential force in the court.
Fu Wan hoped to take this opportunity to show his kindness to the powerful people in Guanzhong.
Little did he know that just after he took action, news came that Wei Duan had been killed...
From the beginning to the end, he was like a clown, jumping up and down. It seemed that he had gained hope, but in the blink of an eye, Cao Cao raised his hand and ruined all his painstaking plans.
net……
Damn, life is more miserable than this!
We clearly saw hope, but in the end it was just water in a bamboo basket.
"Cao Junshi, you are a humble man! What kind of virtue and ability do you have to be appointed as the governor of Liangzhou?"
In the room, Liu Guang closed his eyes tightly and tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
Under Liu Guang's head, an old man couldn't stop coughing and looked weak. This man had white hair and looked very old. He finally stopped coughing. He raised his head and looked at Fu Wan with a trace of disdain in his eyes.
"In the opinion of the head of state, who is suitable?"
"this……"
"I would say that Meng De appointing Cao Ji as the governor of Liangzhou is the most suitable candidate at present.
Guanzhong is now unstable, and Liangzhou is stable, so it needs a stable environment. Although Cao Ji is not a talented person, he is better because he has no ambitions and cannot point fingers. I have also paid attention to what Cao Youxue did in Liangzhou before. Open
The trade routes in the Western Regions and the promotion of farming, including the strategies implemented against the Qiang, Di, Xiongnu and Xianbei, are indeed wonderful works...
If it were another person, it would be impossible to overturn all Cao Peng's previous efforts.
But Cao Ji would not do this, because Cao Peng was his son! Overthrowing Cao Peng would be equivalent to overthrowing himself...
Therefore, I think Cao Ji is very suitable."
After Fu finished, his face turned red and he stared at the old man, as if he wanted to have sex.
But he couldn't get angry!
Because the old man in front of me is the only remaining great sage in the Han Dynasty.
The old man's name is Zhao Qi and his courtesy name is Binqing.
He is from Changling, Jingzhao, and is now ninety-eight years old. This man is rarely talented and learned. He was a famous Confucian scholar in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and his qualifications were even better than Zheng Xuan's. His wife is the niece of Ma Rong, a great scholar in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
, but because Ma Rong became a relative of a wealthy family, they cut off contact with Ma Rong. He has an honest and upright temperament, hates evil as much as hatred, and is feared by the world.
After the two emperors Huan Ling, he was persecuted many times, but he never bowed his head.
He once served as the governor of Bingzhou, but was dismissed due to party ban. The Yellow Turban Army rose up, he was restored to Yilang, and moved to Taicuo, Taichang.
Looking at his life, he wrote a lot of works.
He has "Mencius Chapters" and "Sanfu Juelu" as his representative works, and is known as the representative figure of Guanzhong scholars.
Historically, Zhao Qi died in the sixth year of Jian'an.
But now, because of Cao Peng's relationship, he has attracted famous doctors such as Zhang Ji and Hua Tuo.
Therefore, although Zhao Qi has always been in poor health, he has survived to this day. Even when Cao Cao sees Zhao Qi, he must be respectful and respectful. Regardless of age or qualifications, including knowledge and reputation, he must bow down in front of him.
, it is nothing at all. However, Zhao Qi belongs to the royalist party, and his loyalty to the Han Emperor naturally needs no elaboration.
It’s just that these ancient people all had local sentiments.
Although Zhao Qi left Guanzhong, he always hoped that Guanzhong could return to its former glory.
Whether Guanzhong can be revived depends on whether Liangzhou is stable... He has passed the age of fierce competition. From the rise to decline of the Han Dynasty, Zhao Qike can say that he has seen clearly from beginning to end. He
Now, there is nothing to fight for and nothing to rob, so he can see more clearly. From his heart, of course he hopes that the Han Dynasty can be revived. But he can also see clearly that the decline of the Han Dynasty has been doomed since the second emperor Huan Ling.
, after a period of sixty years, it is irreversible.
Therefore, he now only hopes that the elders in his hometown can live well.
At the same time, he must also consider his descendants...
Fu Wan had no official or position, no military power, and little knowledge. Although Liu Guang was smart and learned, he was still young and had no power at all. Under such circumstances, how could they do anything with those people in their hands who could only talk?
Save the situation. Looking at Cao Cao again, he has a great talent and a great strategy, he has troops and horses, and he has a variety of talents under his command to help him.
Zhao Qi smiled and stood up, "Abbott, I am not feeling well, so I will take my leave first."
Regardless of Fu Wan's expression, Zhao Qi left slowly.
Liu Guang stood up and sent Zhao Qi off respectfully.
"Marquis Linyi, look, look at this old man..."
"Zhang Guozhang, don't blame anyone anymore.
Wei Duan is dead, and the situation in Guanzhong is irreversible. Now, you and I should be patient and patient and look for other opportunities.
Just pretend this never happened.
The struggle between the powerful powers in Guanzhong has nothing to do with you and me."
"Is this the end of it?"
After Fu Wan stood there for a long time, he suddenly burst into tears, "Your Majesty wants to revive the Han Dynasty, but now... I am incompetent. I am incompetent. I am ashamed of Your Majesty."
"Guozhang, what are you doing?"
Liu Guang frowned and shouted sternly: "What kind of behavior is it to cry and cry? Today the world is still ruled by the Han Dynasty, so Cao Youxue in Hexi regards himself as a Han citizen? Now the court is controlled by traitors, you and I should do our best.
Trying your best to share His Majesty's worries. What does it mean to cry and cry at every turn? Could it be that you can cry to rejuvenate the world?
If possible, I will cry with you!"
After lying down, the crying stopped abruptly.
"Marquis Linyi, what do you think we should do?"
"Didn't I say, be patient, be patient again...have you ever seen a poisonous snake killing its prey? Every time it attacks, it will always coil up first, and then gather its strength to attack. Now, you and I need to learn from that poisonous snake and coil up our bodies first.
,never fail."
"But, then Cao Youxue..."
"The Cao Peng incident must not cause another disturbance."
Liu Guang smiled bitterly, "Have you not noticed that the atmosphere in the court has changed in the past few days? The people in Guanzhong did not clamor very loudly, and they seemed to have lost their confidence. Cao Cao was cruel this time. Merits and faults.
On the contrary, he was dismissed from office, and his salary was three years old... If Wei Duan hadn't died, I'm afraid Cao Cao wouldn't have made a decision next time.
He has already given enough face to the people of Guanzhong... If he tries to cause trouble at this time, an accident may happen, which is not a good thing."
"That……"
"Don't interfere with this matter anymore, I will handle it myself.
On the other hand, you need to strengthen contact with Liu Jingsheng in Jingzhou... Also, I have prepared a batch of luggage. You can find an opportunity to send it to Xinye and hand it over to Liu Bei. Now, there are not many people we can rely on, so we
Cherish it even more.”
A trace of relief flashed in Fuwan's eyes.
Liu Guang has grown up!
He has grown from the 'Han family dog' back then to a bad wolf of the Han family.
After returning from the Southern Huns, Liu Guang changed a lot. In the past, Liu Guang was unwilling to participate in government affairs, but now, he has gained a lot of say in the court. Even though he is still very weak now, he is the reason for the resurgence of the Han Dynasty.
hope.
Thinking of this, I felt happy and happy.

When Cao Peng returned from Rile, the Lantern Festival had passed.
When he came back, he learned that Cai Yan had left Wuwei with Ameiguai and went somewhere unknown. However, there was no need to worry about her safety. Bu Zhi asked Han De to lead a group of 800 soldiers to accompany her for protection.
There is absolutely no danger.
But what on earth was she going to do?
I don’t know about Bu Zhao either…
"Towards that?"
Cao Peng was puzzled.
I haven't heard that Cai Yan has any relatives in Chao Na. What is he doing in Chao Na?
"Have you notified Prefect Zhang?"
"Go back to me, sir. I've already informed you."
"That's good!"
Cao Peng scratched his head, still full of questions.
However, with Han De and 800 people protecting him, and Zhang Ji taking care of him, I guess nothing will happen.
Cao Peng still has many things to deal with.
For example, his marriage to Zhen Mi.
The Zhen family was quite divided on whether to marry Zhen Mi to Cao Peng. For example, Zhen Mi's eldest sister Zhen Jiang was somewhat opposed.
After all, the Zhen family came from an official background and had a keen intuition about this situation.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible to decisively abandon Zhongshan's foundation and go to Hexi to join Cao Peng. Now, the Zhen family in Zhongshan has been destroyed. First, it was attacked by Black Mountain bandits, and then it was implicated by the Yuan family, and they were all killed.
On the contrary, the Zhen clan members who originally ran to Hexi have established a firm foothold.
Relying on the big tree of Cao Peng, the Zhen family has risen rapidly in Wuwei. Zhen Yao is now officially appointed as the head of Wuwei County, and at the same time controls the supervisory power of the Hexi County Chamber of Commerce. At least from the current point of view, the revival of the Zhen family,
Only in the morning and evening.
Unexpectedly, Cao Peng actually killed Wei Duan.
Although he is said to be Beizhong Lang General and Hexi Prefect.
But the crime of killing Shangguan without authorization...
Zhen Jiang felt that this matter might affect Cao Peng.
If the Zhen family gets involved with Cao Peng, they may get into trouble.
But Zhen Mi's younger sister Zhen Rong disagreed. She strongly supported her second sister's marriage to Cao Peng, and said that a person should not be so powerful. Not to mention that Zhen Mi was already pregnant with Cao Peng's child. Even if she was not, she could not just
Such ungratefulness.
Forgot to say something!
Zhen Rong, who is only fourteen years old, is very close to Cao Zhang!
Finally, here’s what the old lady said: Since we decided to go to Mr. Cao, no matter what happens to Mr. Cao, we have no other choice. Because there is a strong imprint of Cao Peng on Zhen’s shell. Therefore, Zhen Mi must marry
To Cao Peng... No matter whether Cao Peng rises or falls, the Zhen family must closely follow Cao Peng's footsteps.
In this regard, the Zhen family is inferior to the Su family.
At least Su Shuang has always supported Cao Peng unswervingly until now.
If the Zhen family goes to Qin Muchu, they will completely lose hope of revival...
The marriage between Cao Peng and Zhen Mi was not planned in a big way.
After all, Zhen Mi is a married woman, and she entered the Cao family as a concubine, so it cannot be too grand.
But in order to compensate, Cao Peng held a family banquet and invited Pang Tong, the governor of Hexi, Cheng Gongying, the governor of Jincheng, Yan Xing, the southern captain, Gan Ning, the martial arts lieutenant, Deng Fan, the Qiang captain, Pan Zhang, the Qiang protector, and Hao Zhao, the Chencang captain.
and others were invited one after another. In addition, there were also Bu Zhao Shi Tao Xia Houlan and others who had not yet been appointed. In addition to Kan Ze, all Cao Peng's team were invited, which gave Zhen family enough face. This is also
Make Zhen Yao feel extremely happy.
On the third day after the wedding, news came from the court that Ren Bu Zhi was appointed as the prefect of Wuwei County and Shi Tao was appointed as the prefect of Zhangye County.
Deng Fan moved to Zhonglang General of the Qiang and was stationed in Wuwei County.
Xia Houlan was appointed as the captain of the Hexi Tongbing School and went out to control Lingwu Valley... In addition, Cao Cao allowed Cao Peng to implement the government army system in the three counties of Wuwei and Zhangye in Hexi.
Cao Peng, I finally let go of my worries!
In the 10th year of Jian'an, on February 2, the dragon raised its head.
Cao Peng personally presided over the Wuwei County Tuntian Festival and then returned to the city.
As soon as he sat down, before he could take a sip of water, Pang De hurried in and said, "Sir, something bad is going on!"
Cao Peng couldn't help but be startled and asked in astonishment: "Why are you so alarmed?"
"Weizhang sent someone to deliver a message. The imperial court ordered General Zhang He to come and arrest the young master. He will leave Dasanguan and arrive in Liangzhou soon."
