MTL - Farmer of Shu Han-Chapter 1265 Begging for bones

  Chapter 1265 Begging for bones

   "Da Sima didn't get angry with Pei Wenxing. On the contrary, he said that Pei Wenxing has always had the reputation of speaking out and being upright. He abandoned evil and turned to good, and his character did not change. It is very valuable."

   "He admitted that various problems will inevitably arise in the process of implementing the New Deal, which is unavoidable. The disadvantages mentioned by Pei Wenxing are still obvious."

   "However, the jade bi cannot be rejected because of minor flaws. The imperial court can send more envoys to inspect and correct deviations."

  The queen heard it, nodded in agreement and said:

   "Da Sima sticks to his principles without losing his sense of proportion, he doesn't get angry when he hears bad words, and he is quite magnanimous."

  Unexpectedly, when A Dou heard this, he couldn't help laughing out loud:

   "Big-minded, that's what you say to your own people. Don't you know Feng Mingwen's name? The cruel Xiao Wenhe, if such a big incident happened to the Shangdang wealthy family, he will definitely kill him."

   "Huh?" The queen was taken aback, "Could it be that Da Sima Feng still has a backup?"

   "Isn't it?" A Dou's face was quite strange, "He took advantage of Pei Qian's question and simply came to the bottom of the pot. He suggested to imitate the former Han Lingyi system and build a Tongyi in the north of Chang'an to connect Jiuyuan."

   "Tongyi?"

  The queen is a little unclear.

  But the mausoleum of the former Han Dynasty was too famous, so she had some vague guesses.

   "Exactly, Tongyi." A Dou nodded, "Although Guanzhong has been restored, there are years of wars, people's livelihood is ruined, and the people's houses are empty."

   "Although Guanzhong is connected with the Jiuyuan Qin Zhidao, the people's power is poor and it is difficult to continue."

   "It's not like setting up a city in the north of Chang'an, and moving it to the aristocratic and powerful families in the Guandong to make it real and connect the Jiuyuan, so it's called Tongyi."

   "In this way, firstly, the northern border can be consolidated; secondly, the power of the people in Guanzhong can be strengthened; thirdly, the aristocratic families in the Guandong can be weakened to prevent them from causing disasters in the prefectures and counties; fourthly, this town can also be used as the mausoleum of the great Han in the future."

   Rao Yi, with the wisdom of the queen, couldn't help but gasp when he heard this strategy.

  If it is said that the implementation of the New Deal is to dig out the foundation of the aristocratic and powerful families, then the strategy of the city is basically to use a knife to drain their blood and cut their flesh!

  But the queen had to admit that from the perspective of the royal family and strengthening the foundation of the great man, this strategy really moved her heart.

   "The concubine takes back what he said just now. This Feng Mingwen is exactly as His Majesty said, as before, and has never changed. It is really cruel and merciless Xiao Wenhe!"

   It’s no wonder that cruel officials like Shi Bao can thrive under his sect.

  The queen's words were still unfinished. In her opinion, Feng Mingwen seemed to praise Pei Wenxing on the surface, but in fact he swung a big stick and hit the other party with a sap.

  Don't you, Pei Wenxing, want to plead for the people?

   Don't you want to intercede with the Shangdang family?

  Okay, then I'll just beat them to death in front of you!

   Killing people has to be punished!

   However, Feng Mingwen proposed this policy in the interests of the country, which is irrefutable.

  Compared with consolidating and strengthening the basic base of the big Han as soon as possible, what are those Kanto wealthy families who have evil intentions, or may have evil intentions?

  After the end of the later Han Dynasty, one of the wealthy families in the Kanto region counted as one, and Quan Zhuzhi might occasionally be killed by mistake.

  But every other barbarian family must have slipped through the net.

   "That's right, Da Sima said that the aristocratic families in the Kanto region are often attached to rebels. This is just to make them commit crimes and make meritorious deeds to prove their hearts."

  A Dou sighed, "Da Sima's words are as irrefutable as ever."

   How about some clever talk?

  Empress Zhang is also a little fascinated. Fortunately, such a person of extraordinary style is a Hanchen, and he is also the son-in-law of the emperor.

  Nowadays, the general situation of the world has become more and more clear. When the big Han officially leaves the Kanto, it is the time to decide the fate of the world.

  At that time, no matter how reluctant the Kanto aristocratic families are, they have only two choices under the leadership of the big Han iron hoof soldiers:

  One is to choose to die with the puppet Wei, and the other is to move westward to Guanzhong.

   They died together with the pseudo-Wei, even if they are not dead, I believe that with the means of Da Sima, they can basically make them not much different from the dead.

   And moving west to Guanzhong, there is still a glimmer of hope.

   After all, under the Great Han scientific examination system, as long as their children are up to the challenge, they may be able to regain a foothold in Guanzhong.

   How to choose, do you need to think about it?

  Because there is no choice.

  Empress Zhang can already imagine the grand occasion after the Great Han pacified the Kanto.

   "Although this move may make some Kanto families determined to fight against the beast and make it more difficult to pacify the world, as long as the big Han soldiers can win the battle."

   "Then Da Sima's strategy can at least lay the foundation for a hundred years of peace for the great man."

  Empress Zhang couldn't help sighing, "Da Sima, an extraordinary person, who does extraordinary things, is a real hero!"

  Can the Han generals cut off the false Wei and pacify the Kanto?

  At least the queen will not doubt it, and even firmly believes it.

  Just thinking of such characters, who may become powerful officials of the Han Dynasty in the future, Empress Zhang was a little depressed.

  Feng Mingwen, although he has a reputation for foresight and foresight, is mostly used to intimidating his opponents with grandeur.

  It is a pleasure to be his ally.

   But being his opponent is hard.

  Because you will always have a sense of aggrieved power and nowhere to do it.

   It's just that the queen thinks about her own situation, and knows that it doesn't make much sense to think about it now.

  Besides, after the battle of the Shangdang, His Majesty has become tired of politics and wants to back down.

   After all, this is how the prime minister came about anyway. For His Majesty, Feng Mingwen is much easier to get along with than the prime minister, and is easier to get close to.

  With His Majesty's temperament, Feng Mingwen's ability, and the hope of all the ministers, the Queen knows that Feng Da Sima's position is probably unshakable.

  At least until the Wei thieves are cut off, or even Soochow is put down, and the world is unified, as long as Feng Da Sima does not disagree, His Majesty probably does not want to have any more troubles.

   At this point, the queen suddenly felt powerless.

   Competing with the courtiers for His Majesty's heart, I feel very tired.

   But it's not without gains. At least knowing Pei Qian seems to be up to something.

  The Queen asked with a smile while thinking:

   "Your Majesty must have heard that they had been arguing for a long time because of this, right?"

  A Dou said with a bitter face:

   "Exactly. Then Pei Wenxing wanted to plead for the orders of Shangdang officials, but who would have expected such a result? How could he be reconciled?"

   "It's just that this time, even the general felt that Sima's strategy was quite old-fashioned, and Pei Wenxing was extremely angry in desperation."

   "Only by asking Da Sima again and again, Shangdang's tyrannical government is still unresolved, how to ensure that when the rich families move westward, local officials will not persecute good families."

   Having said this, A Dou scratched his head again:

   "I heard that Pei Wenxing's son was worshiped under Feng Dasima's sect. His behavior in the court hall made me a little puzzled."

  The Queen smiled and said:

   "What's wrong with this? Has Your Majesty not seen Wei Wenchang's son?"

   "Besides, if something is abnormal, there must be a reason." Her face was thoughtful, "As far as the world knows, the big man doesn't like the Kanto, and even the Central Plains family."

   "After the Shangdang incident, anyone who has seen it can expect that they will only be treated harshly in the future."

   "With the status of the Pei family in Hedong, Pei Wenxing will stand up at this time..." Before he finished speaking, the queen sneered, "I'm afraid his plot is not small!"

  If it is said that Feng Da Sima represents the upstarts and relatives, the general represents the old ministers and Jingzhou Yuancong.

  Then Pei Wenxing, an old fox, is afraid that he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to win over the hearts of the powerful clan of Shangdang in the east of Taiyuan, so as to gain a foothold in the imperial court.

   Maybe in the future there will be a Kanto family after being purged.

   Not a fuel-efficient lamp!

  A Dou still doesn’t know why:

   "So what? In the court, who can compare with Da Sima? Pei Wenxing is not too young. What's the point of being greedy for such power?"

  The Queen let out a long sigh:

   "Did Your Majesty forget about cotton? If Pei Wenxing becomes the leader of Bingzhou Hedong, how much benefit can Pei family get from planting cotton in Yanqing and other counties in the future?"

   "Oops, I forgot this verse!"

  A Dou slapped his head, "How could I forget such an important event?"

  The imperial court agreed with the big clans in Hedong and other places in Bingzhou that cotton would be planted in Kanto in the future. According to the plan handed over by Feng Da Sima, how many tens of thousands of dollars was involved?

  Other things can be ignored, but matters related to money and food must never be forgotten.

  A Dou couldn't help blaming himself secretly.

   "This old fox Pei, cough, Pei Wenxing actually has such a far-reaching plan!"

   "Your Majesty, among the courtiers, who dare to stand up and argue with Feng Da Sima, which one is simple?"

"That's true." A Dou thought for a moment, and seemed to remember something again, "The queen mentioned Wei Wenchang just now, but I almost forgot, and during the early court today, Wei Wenchang asked his son to send a memorial on his behalf. "

   "Wei Wenchang?"

  The Queen's complexion changed slightly.

—

  Just as A Dou was running to find the queen, Da Sima Feng stepped down from court, and when he returned to the mansion, he immediately ordered:

   "Go, call Wei Rong for me."

   "Report to Da Sima, Wei Langjun is already waiting at the mansion."

  Feng Da Sima sneered when he heard this:

   "He's very interesting! Tell him to come and see me!"

  Wei Rong was summoned and came quickly, saluting:

   "Students meet sir."

  Feng Da Sima Da Ma Jin Dao sat on the main seat, looking at the big disciple below with a blank expression:

   "Tell me, what's going on?"

  But see Wei Rong said respectfully:

   "Sir, is it a memorabilia from a student?"

   Feng Da Sima continued to remain expressionless:

   "Do you think I will ask other things?"

  Wei Rong glanced carefully at Feng Da Sima, and tentatively said:

   "Mr. has been away from Chang'an for a long time, don't you want to inquire about the academy?"

  Hearing this, Feng Da Sima laughed angrily:

   "What? The wings are stiff, and I dare to say that to my husband?"

  Wei Rong hurriedly bowed his head:

   "Students dare not."

   After a pause, Wei Rong continued:

   "It's just that the students think that the college and the martial arts hall are the foundation for the gentleman's court. And the matter of the students and adults is just an old minister's desire for a good death, which is not worth mentioning."

   Feng Da Sima's face became a little grim:

   "You think so?"

  Wei Rong looked calm and nodded:

   “Students think so.”

  Feng Da Sima saw him like this, frowned slightly, and then relaxed instead.

  I saw him leaning his back on the back of the chair, and at the same time lightly tapped the armrest with his fingers, and said in a deep voice:

   "So, are you admitting that you were responsible for the memorial of the general of the town army?"

  The so-called general of the town army is Wei Yan.

  After Wei Yan's defeat, he was seriously injured because he took the initiative to cut off the rear, which led to a coma and was sent back to Chang'an for treatment.

  Probably due to excessive bleeding and severe injuries, so although a life was rescued by the medical school, it was the root cause of the disease.

  His body paralyzed, hands and feet are unable to move independently, crooked mouth and squinted eyes, often drooling.

  According to the School of Medicine, it was caused by a knife and arrow wound on the battlefield, which caused congestion to accumulate in the body.

  Feng Yong knew that nine out of ten he was seriously injured, a blood clot formed in his body, and he might have been infected.

  Old man Wei has been doing this for the rest of his life.

   It is precisely because Wei Yan has become like this, and because he is an old general who followed the late emperor and made a lot of contributions to the great man.

   Therefore, the imperial court did not punish him too much, except that he was the prefect of Shangdang and the governor of Hedong.

  At the same time, according to the usual practice, he was demoted from the left hussar general to the general of the town army, and cut half of his food.

   This is almost the case.

   Never thought that this morning, Wei Chang, son of Wei Yanchang, would write a memorial for his father.

  I only said that I was defeated by the thieves, and I failed the expectations of the emperor. Although the court did not commit a felony, I no longer have the face to stand in the court, and I only want to beg for bones.

  If it was someone else, it would be fine.

  Anyway, at Wei Yan's age, and in addition to encountering such a thing, it is a blessing to be able to retire safely.

  But an old warrior who was paralyzed in bed and still slurred his speech, could still write such a smooth memorial to begging for bones.

   It's outrageous to fall into his mother's way!

  Especially at this sensitive time, if you really have to be a little vicious, maybe it’s the cruel Xiao Wenhe, who doesn’t even want to let go of an old man who is paralyzed in bed!

  Why is it a sensitive time?

   Isn’t it because of the one in Gui Palace?

  An object hurts its kind, and the rabbit dies and the fox is sad. If the queen thinks that Xiao Wenhe will treat her like this in the future, then there is a big misunderstanding.

  So Feng Da Sima came down from court, and immediately summoned his students.

  He wanted to ask exactly what happened in the Wei Mansion, and was there anyone else behind this memorial?

  Wei Rong seemed to understand what his husband was worried about, but he explained:

   "Sir, please rest assured that this memorial was indeed written by the student on behalf of his father, and it was also suggested by the student to his mother and elder brother, with the consent of his mother."

   "The most important thing is that no one knew about this matter before it was played."

   Sure enough, it was your idea.

  Feng Da Sima rubbed his brows:

   "Tell me your reason."

  Wei Rongying let out a snort, and then explained:

   "Sir, since the students and adults were sick on the couch, the inside and outside of the house are all run by my mother. My mother is only a female, and she doesn't have much experience."

   "Brother is simple by nature, and may be able to kill thieves in battle, but it doesn't help much when it comes to the affairs of the mansion."

   "Students usually have to deal with the affairs of the college, and have no time to take care of the affairs of the mansion." Wei Rong paused, then raised his head to look at Feng Da Sima, "At this time, the Wei mansion is like a sharp knife that no one can hold."

  "If someone takes advantage of the students' unpreparedness and stabs them with a sharp knife, it will be too late to regret!"

   "The students thought that letting the adults go back to Nanxiang to recuperate and stay away from right and wrong would not only save the entire Wei family, but also avoid the risk of injury to the husband."

  Feng Da Sima heard it, and asked after a long silence:

   "Why didn't you discuss this matter with me first?"

  Wei Rong shook his head and said softly:

   "If Mister doesn't know beforehand, then my Wei Manor's own decision has nothing to do with Mr.
