Chapter 35 Yuan Family Civil Disturbance
Zhao Feng was not surprised by Yuan Shao's death. Although he has changed a lot of things, Yuan Shao's life should not be affected by himself. After all, he should have lost a lot, and he should not have lost a lot. Taking it into consideration, it's good not to be angry to death in advance. As for the qi, is it getting better? No matter how mysterious the butterfly effect is, it is not so mysterious.
Yuan Shao's death is not the biggest problem. The biggest question is whether the number of the sons of the Yuan family will make waves again because of the issue of his heirs. In history, when Yuan Shao died, Yuan Tan was far away in Youzhou. As a result, Yuan Shao was said to be the third son Yuan Shang. In the end, the second Yuan did not fight and took advantage of Cao for nothing. Now that Yuan Shang is in Qingzhou and Yuan Tan is in Jizhou, what should we do if history is so misplaced?
Think about it, in any case, you can't let the Yuan brothers fight like this. At least, the Yuan brothers can't make the whole Hebei into a pot of porridge, which will only be cheap for nothing. At present, Zhao Feng wrote a letter and sent someone to tell Liu Bei quickly, asking him to pay a little attention to the Yuan brothers, wake them up at the right time, and don't beat himself up.
As Zhao Feng expected, after Yuan Shao's death, Yuan Shang, who was in Qingzhou, left everything for the first time and rushed back to Ye City, Jizhou. However, no matter how fast he moves, he can't catch up with the speed of Yuan Shao's death. When Yuan Shang rushed to the general's mansion in Yecheng, it was already a white flag.
"Father!" Yuan Shang, who was dressed in filial piety, cried all the way to Yuan Shao's spirit and cried like rain. At this time, not only Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi were also on the side, but also the rest of Yuan Shao's wives and concubines, and some important civil and military ministers were also present. Everyone was crying.
"Child, why did you come back!" It was Yuan Shang's biological mother Liu who was crying, but she could hear something else in this. Yuan Shang cried for a while, and then said astringently, "Mother, did you have any words left when my father left?"
"Your father left in a hurry and didn't have time to say anything." Liu cried and replied. In fact, when Yuan Shao died, she was not only present, but also Ju Shu and Zhang Yi. Even if she had the intention to spread rumors, she would only be quickly exposed.
"Then I don't know who is in the director now?" Yuan Shang looked at the circle of people kneeling around him and asked with no heart. Guo Tu, who was beside him, said, "After the independent public illness, it is the eldest son and the second son director. Before the death of the master, he will also hand over the big things to the eldest son.
"Mr. Gong Ze, what do you say?" Liu's face changed slightly and asked. When Yuan Shang heard the words, he looked directly at Guo Tu to see what he was going to say.
Guo Tu was calm and just said, "When the Lord left, although he did not make it clear, he intended to spread the position of the eldest prince. Mr. Ju Shue and General Zhang Yi were also present. If the third son did not believe it, he could prove it to them."
"Is there such a thing?" Yuan Shang was slightly stunned, and then sneered, "Since I haven't said it clearly, how can I know that my father is the eldest brother?"
"When the Lord is dying, I and the Lord and the gentleman, the public and the two princes are all there. Although the lord can't speak, he first pointed to the eldest prince, then pointed to the general's seal, and finally held the hands of the three of us. We all vowed to assist the eldest son. The lord nodded when he heard the words, and then closed his eyes. I think you should understand the meaning of this. It's Zhang's jaw on the other side. As the only one left of the four pillars in Hebei, this is naturally very heavy. Yuan Tan's surname has been strong and martial arts since he was a child, and he has a deep friendship with Zhang Jaw. At this time, he naturally wants to speak for Yuan Tan.
"My father was drowsy before he died. How can he count a few eye gestures?" Yuan Shang was quite dissatisfied. At this time, Ju Shu, who had never spoken, said, "The eldest son has been taking care of government affairs in the past six months, and there have been no mistakes in all major and small affairs. Now it is naturally reasonable to succeed to the throne. Madam was also present at that time. Let's ask me and General Zhang which sentence was wrong?
"Mr. Gong?" Yuan Shang was really surprised to see that Ju Shu also supported Yuan Tan. Since Ju Shu and Tian Feng arrived in Nanpi, Yuan Shang tried his best to attract the two of them. He didn't expect Ju Shu to support Yuan Tan. In fact, Ju Shu is also a little helpless: in the current situation, Yuan Tan's succession to the throne has become the general trend, and Ju Shu doesn't want to make extra things any more, so he supports Yuan Tan. If possible, Ju Shu would rather go to Liaodong than take care of this matter.
Yuan Shang looked at the people in the mourning hall. He opened his mouth and finally didn't say anything. Finally, he had to hate and say, "Although I can't take the throne, but brother, I'm afraid that Prime Minister Cao's soldiers are under pressure at present. You are also in a bad mood, aren't you? And the second brother, I'm afraid your wife who hasn't passed the door will never pass the door!" Yuan Shang sneered.
"Third brother, what do you mean?" Yuan Tan's face changed slightly and he asked in a low voice. That is to say, Yuan Tan has been in charge of major events in the past six months. His surname is very calm, and he is in front of Yuan Shaoling. Otherwise, I'm afraid that Yuan Shang would have been beaten violently at this time.
"What do you mean? Take a good look, my good second brother. This is your wife's uncle. Now the letter written by Zhen Zheng, the head of the Zhen family, to Prime Minister Cao, has been intercepted by Mr. Zhengnan." Yuan Shang sneered. He took out a letter from his arms and threw it to the two of them. Yuan Tan took it and opened it, but it was a handwritten letter written by Zhen Zheng to Cao. In the letter, Zhen Zheng did his best to flatter Cao Qian and claimed that he was willing to take over Cao Qian's army into Hebei. Yuan Tan was furious when he saw it and shouted angrily, "Come on, I'll kill Zhen Zheng with you. Let's meet him!" After a stick of incense, Lv Kuang, who was ordered to arrest Zhen Zheng, came back to report that Zhen Zheng had disappeared. I heard from a servant in the house that he went to Liaodong two days ago under the order of Yuan Tan.
"Why did I send him to Liaodong?" Yuan Tan said angrily. Yuan Shang looked at Yuan Tan, who was a little crazy in front of him, but sneered in his heart: "My eldest brother, don't think you can sit firmly in Hebei. You can't get what I can't get!"
In this somewhat messy atmosphere, Yuan Shao was finally buried. The day after Yuan Shao was buried, Yuan Shang returned to Qingzhou. At this time, it was already late autumn. The rice in the south had been harvested, the winter wheat had been planted, and some places even took time to plant a bunch of buckwheat.
"There are a lot of people this year, so there is not enough food. Plant some buckwheat just in case!" Zhao Feng suggested to his long history, Shi Tao and Shi Guangyuan. Although buckwheat has begun to be planted at this time, the scope is limited, especially in the south. Zhao Feng knew that this thing was suitable for planting in cold areas, so he ordered people to buy seeds from the north and now experiment in the mountains of Guiyang County. If the output is good, we will increase the promotion next year. Especially the mountainous Cangwu and Guiyang, if they can be promoted, the ration problems that plague these two counties will be greatly solved.
"General, the new army has been training for three months now. Can you let them transfer to Jingbei?" Zhu Ran, who was in charge of training, asked.
"Let's wait until they have been trained for half a year. If there is not enough food, use the newly harvested buckwheat on top." Zhao Feng thought for a thought. Jingbei is different from Jingnan. Soldiers are likely to go to the battlefield immediately when they arrive there. They need to train well and have a certain combat effectiveness to avoid excessive casualties.
"Yes, general, Sha Tou sent someone to tell the general that all his people have been migrated. Jin Taishou has set up two counties outside Wuxi, where the Wuxi people are located. Sha Tou said that some small tribes in Nanzhong may come here one after another. Shi Guangyuan read another official document and said.
"Well, let them take their time. By the way, he said he wanted to make up the army. How's it going? Zhao Feng suddenly remembered something and asked quickly.
"The sand leader said that he had selected 10,000 warriors, trained them into an army, and could participate in the war at any time." Shi Guangyuan replied.
"Ten thousand people, don't be too much at the beginning. Ten thousand people is enough. After all, he still needs to farm. In order, Shamoke was appointed as the general of Yamen, Zhang Nan and Feng Xi were captains, and assisted Shamoke to form a barbarian army. Let's call it the Wudang Flying Army!" Zhao Feng thought about it and copied the name given by Zhuge Liang in history. He did not believe that Zhuge Liang would sue him for copyright infringement.
After more than half a year of hard construction by Zhao Feng and Shi Guangyuan, the construction of Jingnan, Nanhai and Cangwu was finally a little angry. Of course, there is still a certain gap from Jingnan in Zhao Feng's ideal. Under the background of this troubled times, the calmness of Jingnan and Jiangdong is particularly valuable. Of course, the price paid is Zhao Feng and others, especially him and Shi Guangyuan, who have eaten less than chickens and slept later than dogs in the past six months. Although the two wives are in Hanshou, they have been very busy, and it is not easy to make out with them.
"Guang Yuan, it's time for you to get a family, right? You see, Kong Ming has been married for almost two years. Why are you still single? Just finished the matter this day. Looking at Shi Tao, who was still bowing his head, Zhao Feng asked with some gossip.
"I'm kind to the general's concern. When I submit my father's funeral next year, I will find someone to propose marriage." Shi Tao said with a smile. Zhao Feng was a little stunned and quickly asked him for specific details. Shi Tao sighed and told Zhao Feng the details. It turned out that Shi Tao also had a good girl. She was originally going to get married two years ago. She didn't expect that Shi Tao's father had just passed away. He had to keep filial piety for three years before it was delayed.
"Fortunately, the marriage contract has been made, otherwise after the funeral is over, I'm afraid that A Lan's sister has married someone else!" Shi Tao is quite happy. Zhao Feng looked at him like this, but he frowned a little. He remembered the sister-in-law who refused to marry for three years but refused to leave in his own home.
For this purpose, even if Zhao Feng was a fool, he should see the girl's thoughts. Fortunately, he used to look for Ruyi Langjun for her everywhere in his dream, from Guan Ping to Lu Xun. But I don't know that Zhen Mi's love is tied to herself. Zhao Feng once asked Zhen Jiang in surprise, "Is he really so charming? Why can he make her secretly promise?"
"Husband, why do you have to be arrogant? How many people are already famous all over the world at such a young age as you? And although the husband is famous all over the world, he is modest and never arrogant. In a woman's life, don't she just want to have a husband who is able and gentle and considerate to herself? Zhen Jiang said an angued, and the result was that he was pressed by Zhao Feng and gave him another reward. Afterwards, Zhao Feng couldn't help sighing that the status of women in this era was too low.
Thinking that the last time I made out with my wife was almost a month ago, Zhao Feng was also a little uncomfortable. Just then, the servant of the family came to tell him that Zhen Jiang was pregnant.
