Any exclusive or skill points are purely the potter’s own free will.
Sima Yi couldn't understand it at all.
All he knew was that the roughness of this cattail leaf fan had reached the point where he couldn't bear it. He would go out with it to meet people every day without making them laugh to death.
Sima Yi's face fell, and he begged: "Teacher, are there really no other fans for me?"
The potter thought carefully and hesitated and said: "Other fans will definitely not work. Otherwise, I will get you a similar fan. You two can hold a fan in your hands and swing it from side to side. It might be more stylish."
, to make up for the shortcomings of the fan itself."
Sima Yi: “…”
The master's destiny is as big as the sky, so just make do with the fan. If you really want one in your left hand and one in your right hand...
Little Sima Yi didn't dare to imagine that scene.
…
…
The apprenticeship ceremony was over, and the potter asked the two children to go back and rest first.
Diao Chan stayed at the governor's mansion. She personally went to the kitchen and cooked some exquisite northwest dishes for the pottery merchant to replenish his health.
It really made her feel distressed that Mr. Taiping had lost weight due to his busy schedule recently. Today, she and Xiao Ying'er made a special trip to buy some good vegetables and come to open a small stove for him.
After the dishes cooked in the food cauldron were served, the pottery man smelled the aroma and felt his index fingers moving. He had been busy with work recently and really hadn't eaten anything properly. The cook at the Sheriff's Mansion was a rough guy.
It is not said to be pig food, but it is at least a little bit confusing. The pottery merchant is quite dissatisfied with this.
Just as he was about to use his chopsticks, Pei Qian came over and reported to the pottery merchant that Captain Hu had come to pay his respects.
"This guy didn't come early, he didn't come late, but he's here at this time...do you want to eat?" The pottery merchant muttered dissatisfiedly, and then ordered Pei Qian to let Hu Cai in.
When I was young, I saw Hu Cai striding into the hall, bowing his hands to the pottery merchant and saying, "General Hu Cai, please pay your respects to the Lord!"
Just after he finished speaking, before the pottery merchant could reply to him, he saw Hu Cai sniffing hard and saying with emotion: "Hey! It smells so good. Where are you having lunch?"
Diao Chan was quite polite and smiled and said to Hu Cai: "The little girl has just cooked some vulgar food, just in time for Captain Hu to arrive. If you don't mind it, just keep some for us. There is still some in the kitchen, little one."
Girl, go get some for the captain."
"Okay..." Hu Cai smiled stupidly, and before he was about to agree, he looked up and found the pottery merchant looking at him with a gloomy look on his face.
"Ah? Well...it's not necessary anymore. I appreciate Madam's kindness. I just have something to tell you. I'll leave immediately after saying that!"
The pottery merchant nodded with satisfaction.
I'm pretty discerning, I'm having dinner with my wife, what are you doing here?
After straightening his face, Tao Shang asked Hu Cai: "Colonel Hu, what's the matter, do you have to talk about it while eating? Is it urgent?"
Hu Cai carefully glanced at the little Ying'er next to Diao Chan, and whispered: "Master Fu, can you follow me out and let's chat in the yard?"
The pottery merchant was surprised when he heard this.
My hall, why do you still have to hide out to chat?
Diao Chan is a smart and sensible woman. When she heard this, she quickly put down the chopsticks in her hands and said with a smile: "Hey, Zidu, didn't you just tell me that some novel plants and trees were recently planted in your mansion garden? I just happened to be there.
I’m not too hungry, so you guys can chat first while Xiao Ying’er and I go to the garden to have a look.”
After that, he pulled Xiao Ying'er and said, "Let's go to the back garden with my sister."
Xiao Ying'er was actually grumbling from hunger, pouting hesitantly, slowly putting down her chopsticks, and reluctantly followed Diao Chan to the back garden.
Watching the two girls, one big and one small, disappear outside the door, the potter raised his eyebrows and said, "Tell me, why are you so anxious? Do you have to avoid others?"
Hu Cai chuckled and said, "It's mainly about the maid next to the madam. It's hard for me to tell the young master in front of her."
Upon hearing this, the pottery merchant was immediately surprised and said: "You are referring to Xiao Ying'er? What else could have anything to do with her?"
Hu Cai took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "May I ask the Lord, where is the origin of the maid next to Madam? Do you know?"
The pottery merchant shook his head when he heard this and said: "Diao Chan and I picked up that child outside Luoyang City. He is a pure refugee. Where can I register him?"
When Hu Cai heard this, his whole body seemed to be slightly shaken.
"Master Fu, are you really picking it up in Sili? Do you remember it clearly?"
The pottery merchant nodded and said: "Of course I remember correctly. I have only picked up one like this in my life. The rest of them were tricked... Besides, these days, with the war in chaos, it is not normal to pick up a few people."
, you look like you're acting like I've picked up the leader of your Yellow Turban Army, and you're trying to scare people."
The pottery merchant thought he was joking, but Hu Cai didn't laugh at all. Instead, he stared at him seriously, as if he was explaining a fact to the pottery merchant.
Seeing Hu Cai's expression, Tao Shang was a little unsure: "What do you mean by that expression? Don't accuse me of being wrong?"
Hu Cai took a deep breath and said to Tao Shang in a low voice: "If it is her, then she is really not much different from the nominal head of the Yellow Turban."
The pottery merchant was stunned when he heard this.
Listening to the meaning behind his words, why does it seem like there is an article in it?
Tao Shang swallowed his saliva, pointed at Hu Cai and said: "When you are engaged in Taoism, you must be sincere and seek truth from facts, and don't be too bloody."
Seeing that the pottery merchant was confused, Hu Cai slowly explained: "Only Qu Shuai, the leader of the Yellow Turban tribes, knew about this matter. When General Tiangong... ah, no, when Zhang Jiao died, he had an infant daughter left behind.
My name is Zhang Ning."
"The road to rebellion was so bumpy, yet Zhang Jiao could still leave behind an infant daughter. Your General Tiangong was quite playful back then... He was quite old then, wasn't he? Was it his own? Don't let others take advantage of you.
Already."
As for Zhang Jiao, the former leader, Hu Cai could not comment on his life style casually. He just laughed and said: "I don't know if he is a true subordinate, but in name he is."
"Do you want to tell me that Xiao Ying'er is Zhang Ning? Then how did you know it?" The potter raised his eyebrows and asked Hu Cai.
Hu Cai was suffocated when he heard this and was silent for a long time: "Actually, the last general has never met Zhang Ning, but before Zhang Jiao died in Guangzong, he left a notice and ordered his followers to take the child away and flee with the Yellow Turban.
In the name of General Jun Tiangong and the leader of the cult, he ordered his daughter to be named the Huangtian Witch in the cult. She would inherit his foundation and legacy in the future, revive Huangtian's prosperity, and overthrow the Han court. This matter was notified to all the canal commanders at that time, and all existing towns and canals were
Everyone knows it."
The potter frowned and said, "What is Huang Tianwu?"
Hu Cai considered the words for a while and explained to the pottery merchant: "Since ancient times, when religions were established and sects were established, witches and sects were worshiped and worshiped. Among them, men were witches and women were witches. We, the Han Dynasty, respected Confucianism and Legalism, and according to legend, Confucianism also
It evolved from wizards. The so-called witches are of great significance in the religion. They are called the masters of praying for rain, so they evolved into the name of warlocks. At least in the Taiping religion, apart from General Tiangong, witches symbolize
Tianxin, a shaman in the religion, does not command troops, but he needs to be good at calculations and divination of good and bad luck. His existence is of extraordinary significance to the followers of the religion."
The potter nodded suddenly.
To put it bluntly, it is just superstition. In ancient times, many people believed in ghosts, gods and providence, especially for organizations like the Taiping Sect that took religion as their form. The role of witchcraft was just a means for rulers to gather followers and strengthen their power.
Speaking of the Taiping Religion, Tao Shang called himself Taiping Gongzi. Some people think that his name conflicts with the Taiping Religion, which is treason. It should be noted that the "Taiping Religion" takes the word Taiping from Laozhuang. The two characters Taiping have been a symbol for thousands of years.
The meaning of peace in the world is orthodox! The so-called literary inquisition depends on the stance and methods of the ruling class. In the eyes of the Han Dynasty, the Taiping religion was a rebellion, but Lao and Zhuang were not. If the usage of the word Taiping is criticized, it is the ruling class that needs to go.
If Zhang Jiao and others are deprived of their privileged use and cannot oppose Lao and Zhuang's theories themselves, is it possible that the rebels in the world use the classical anthology, but the ruling class that claims to be orthodox cannot use it? Zhang Jiao used it.
The word "Taiping" cannot be used by others. If Zhang Jiao calls himself "Laozi", does the ruling class have to destroy all the classics of Laozi? This is not realistic, and the second is that the ruling class regards themselves as orthodox, and they have always been the only ones.
If it can be used, but others cannot, how can it be reversed and the ruling class avoid the classic names and taboos that are well used by the reactionaries at the bottom? This is not in line with the institutional majesty of a ruling group in terms of the intensity of its rule.
As a ruler, you must have the domineering attitude of a ruler. I can use it, but you can avoid it! If you use it, I will destroy you, but I don’t need to avoid it!
Speaking of this, Hu Cai paused and said: "Later, Zhang Jiao's cronies took the child and secretly went to Qingzhou to join the Qingzhou Qushuai at that time. After several years of wandering, the child fell into the hands of Sima Ju.
People who adhere to the Taoist tradition respect Wu Jin the most, not to mention that he is the orphan of General Tiangong. With her in hand, Sima Ju's appeal has become extremely strong. In just a few years, he has conquered the Yellow Turbans of Qing, Xu, Yan and other major states.
All the remaining troops were recruited under his command, with millions of followers, and their strength closely followed the likes of Zhang Yan in Heishan."
The potter seemed to understand a little bit.
"Then according to your opinion, this Huang Tianwu is the puppet in Sima Ju's hands? But why did Xiao Ying'er appear in Sili?"
Hu Cai smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Then it depends on Sima Ju himself being stupid. In the late spring of the year before last, I heard that Sima Ju wanted to attack Puyang, but Liu Dai, Bao Xin, Qiao Mao and others defeated the front. Sima Ju originally
He wanted to bring Huang Tianwu to the front line to boost his morale, but he never thought that after a chaotic battle, he almost didn't save his life. How could he care about Huang Tianwu's life and death? After the battle was over, this man
They dispersed due to chaos... In fact, everyone had always thought that he was dead, but it was not discovered by all parties until the eldest son went to get Baibo Valley. Huang Tianwu seemed to be living in the land of Sili. Of course, he was also
Just hearsay."
The potter blinked and asked curiously: "When we found Xiao Ying'er, she seemed to be starving to death. How come Huang Tianwu is so stupid and doesn't go back to Sima Ju?"
Hu Cai shook his head and said: "I don't know the specific matter, but I can guess the general situation. Sima Ju treated Huang Tianwu just as a puppet. He treated this child like a big boss."
, it may not be better than Dong Zhuo's treatment of the emperor of the dynasty, it may even be worse! Moreover, Sima Ju's idea is just to use Huang Tianwu to summon various ministries to form their own forces, and wait for the future to happen, but he has no regard for it... Just imagine this child
With such a great influence among the Yellow Turbans, how could Sima Ju keep her to suppress him in name only? The old man was so careless and vicious, it was still a matter of debate whether he could keep her alive in the world, and Sima Ju didn't have much of a city.
It's normal for children to see it, and it's understandable if you don't want to go back."
The potter still didn't understand: "Then how did you recognize that this child is Huang Tianwu?"
Hu Cai laughed when he heard this and said: "Master Fu, it's strange for you to say this! The main reason is that this child looks special! I heard that when General Tiangong gave birth to this daughter, the child was gifted. Not only were the eyes born white, but also
There is also a red birthmark on her face. General Tiangong once said at that time that this girl was blessed by Huang Tian. She was truly a child prodigy with such extraordinary appearance. In the future, Huang Tian would definitely be chosen by her.
It’s on me.”
When the pottery merchant heard this, he couldn't help but look stiff and open his eyes. If he were here, he would definitely raise his hand to scratch their ears.
Also gifted with extraordinary talents and the appearance of a child prodigy?
It's obviously you who is malnourished in your old age and has given birth to a child with all kinds of strange diseases, but you still don't treat them!
Even a pottery merchant can imagine that at Zhang Jue's age, with such a broken body, you still imitate other people to play girls and give birth to babies at such an old age. Not only did you cheat yourself, but you also cheated the child. You deserve to die!
Hu Cai didn't know what Tao Shang was thinking, so he continued: "The child's white eyes and the birthmark on her face, coupled with her age, cannot be faked by just looking for someone. At least the white eyes cannot be faked.
That's why my subordinates will be suspicious when they see the child."
The pottery merchant scratched his head when he heard this and recalled the details carefully.
When this child returned to Xuzhou with the army, she seemed to be particularly afraid of the white wave and yellow scarf thieves. She hid in the carriage all day long without showing up to hide herself. Even Hu Cai happened to see her appearance recently.
Is it possible that she had a shadow towards the Yellow Turban people because she was abused so much by Sima Ju?
Seeing that the pottery merchant was silent, Hu Cai tried to say: "My lord, the influence of this Huang Tianwu is not simple. After all, she is the daughter of General Tiangong. Even if she is a little girl who doesn't understand anything, with her in hand,
It's like having an opportunity to accept the Yellow Turbans from all over the world. The young master now needs people, and this child..."
"alright."
Tao Shang raised his hand to block Hu Cai's words and said, "I understand what you want to say. Thank you Captain Hu for your hard work. You go back first. I will consider this matter carefully."
Hu Cai was a very discerning man. He had already said what needed to be said, and then left.
