Chapter 1101 Before and after the first snow

  Before the first snow fell in Guanzhong in the fifteenth year of Jianxing, Pei Qian finally got Feng Junhou's permission to bring his son and concubine back to Hedong for the New Year.

   Regarding Feng Junhou's claim that he wants to imitate Emperor Xiaowu's implementation of the family's favor order, General Guan doesn't know much about political calculations.

   But from a military point of view, she seems to have a different view:

   "Could it be too early? The Central Plains and Hebei are places where there are many aristocratic families. If they are not willing to send troops eastward in the future, I am afraid that it will add a lot of difficulties."

   Feng Junhou shook his head:

   "It's for sure that they don't want to, but it doesn't mean that they will cut off their way. Isn't there another way to survive? It depends on whether they are willing to leave."

   "The matter in Hedong is so big, it is better to put pressure on them when they are timid now, than to wait for them to recover."

   As for the matter in Liangzhou, one visit is enough.

   It is impossible to send iron cavalry to destroy the door every time.

  Why is the Tweet Order of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty an unsolvable conspiracy?

   It is because after the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, the power of the imperial court has greatly surpassed that of the vassal states.

   Obeying the imperial court's order, although it will only become weaker and weaker, it can survive for several generations after all.

   If you don’t obey the imperial court’s orders, you might not even be able to survive this generation.

  The big man has won many battles and victories over the years, and has already dominated the world.

   Waiting for the day when the big man wins Luoyang or Hebei, it will be a matter of going directly to A after learning how to operate.

  Before that, if the aristocratic family is not reconciled, they can continue to bet that Wei Guo can still come back.

  Anyway, the Central Plains and Hebei are the foundation of the Wei State, and they are also the places with the most farmland.

  As long as these aristocratic families are not afraid to walk the old road of Hedong, Feng Junhou is naturally even less afraid, he has a lot of ways.

   To put it bluntly, the emerging interest groups represented by Xinghanhui will inevitably have a fundamental conflict with the conservative family.

   "At this time, it is time to look at the vision and courage of the principals, whether they believe that the big man will win or the Wei thief will win."

  Feng Junhou smiled.

   Isn't this the family's forte?

   It's just that as the situation between the Han and Wei becomes clearer, the options and time will become smaller and smaller.

   "Although the Han Dynasty is an old state, its destiny is to restore it." Feng Junhou looked far away, "If you want to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, there is no other way but to restore it."

   "Only the reforms can eliminate the disadvantages of the late Han. However, since the beginning of China, the reforms have always shed blood."

  The biggest disadvantage of the later Han Dynasty lies in the aristocratic family.

   In other words, strong branches and weak stems.

  Because the aristocratic family merged too much land, they did not pay or paid very little tax.

  The imperial court couldn't collect enough taxes, and the finances couldn't make ends meet, so it could only continue to increase taxes on self-cultivating farmers.

   Coupled with the fact that the aristocratic family hid too many people, the country could not find enough people to serve corvee, and then continued to choose to increase the burden on the owner farmers.

  In this way, it will only force more people to sell their fields and land, and take shelter of the aristocratic family.

  With such a vicious circle, the court's control over the local area will only become weaker and weaker.

  Once something happens, the already decayed national system will crash.

   Therefore, in order to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, one must do the right thing to the aristocrats—either spiritual transformation or physical transformation.

   Otherwise, even if the world is unified, it will be just another Sima Jin.

  Guan Ji didn't understand these principles of governing the world, so she sighed:

   "In the past, there was a prime minister standing in front of him, so Alang didn't have to worry. But now that the prime minister is gone, there is no one more powerful than Alang."

   "According to the history books, it is rare for a concubine to see a reform and die well, so I am deeply worried about Alang."

  Feng Junhou saw that General Guan, who had always been resolute, was showing a rare look of worry, so he couldn't help smiling and comforting:

   "How could I not know what Xijun said? So I married Xijun in the past, not..."

   Speaking of this, Feng Junhou paused for a moment, and then continued, "In addition to loving Xijun, he is actually unwilling to tie all his wealth to the royal family."

  Perhaps before the Three Kingdoms period, there were very few reformers who died well.

   But it does not mean that there will be no future.

  The reason why it is difficult for those who preside over the reform to die well is because they pin all their hopes on the superiors.

   Did not pay attention to solidarity with the vested interests of the reform, or in other words, the vested interests of the reform did not have enough political rights.

  Back then, Guan Ji represented the rich and powerful who were eager to break through the predicament and seek new interests, while Zhang Ji represented the royal family.

  Choosing Guan Ji means that Feng Junhou wants to stand on the same side as these dignitaries.

  Until later, as the Han Dynasty regained Longyou and Liangzhou, the royal family became more and more deeply involved in the new economic model.

  Feng Junhou appointed Zhang Ji as his chief secretary, officially declaring that the big man has reached a real agreement of interests from the royal family to the upstart.

   "Now it's not that I want to get rid of the disadvantages of the later Han Dynasty, but that the emperor and the people who want to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty want to reorganize the old mountains and rivers."

  Feng Junhou held General Guan's hand, and said softly, "So please don't worry, my gentleman."

   If the old-fashioned family wants to fight back, it must first uproot Xinghanhui, and second, replace Ah Dou.

  Unable to do these two points, it is meaningless to just stare at Feng Junhou.

  Hearing what Feng Junhou said, General Guan showed off his face a little, tried his best to smile, and nodded.

   Seeing that she still couldn't let go, Feng Junhou smiled slightly, leaned into her ear and whispered:

   "Counting Lady Hua, we already have two girls from Nanzhong in our house. Don't you think it's strange why I like girls from Nanzhong?"

  General Guan's eyes widened upon hearing this.

   "As far as I know, there is a place in the south of Jiaozhou called Yazhou. In the south of Yazhou, there are countless islands falling on the sea, which can be compared to Xinghan."

   "From Jiaozhou, you can go to Yazhou. If you cross Ailao Mountain from Nanzhong, you will be in the country of Huawai. If you can find the way to Linyi, you can enter the sea from there."

  Nanzhong is the escape route Feng Junhou left for himself. If one day he can't turn back the torrent of history, he will still be a family in the future, and Nanzhong is the foothold of Feng's family.

  If you can’t even gain a foothold in Nanzhong, at worst, follow the path that Huahuan has found over the years, and run to the sea to become a fairy.

   After hearing Feng Junhou’s explanation, General Guan stammered:

   "Alang is really far-sighted, Feng Guiwang?"

  Feng Junhou looked at her appearance and couldn't help laughing:

   "If I am the king of ghosts, isn't Xijun the queen of ghosts?"

   "Go! Not serious!"

   General Guan pushed Feng Junhou hard.

  But knowing that Feng Junhou had already made preparations, she was finally relieved.

  Thinking of the various arrangements made by the Xinghan Society in Nanzhong over the years, and now that Hua Niangzi is from the Feng family.

  General Guan believes that even if the Feng family has to go to Nanzhong in the end, no one can force him to go overseas.

   Having figured this out, General Guan nodded:

   "Listening to what A Lang said, I hope that the aristocratic families in the Kanto region will have more backbone and stick to their own positions, so that they can all be cleaned up."

   It’s a big deal to pat your **** and run away!

  Feng Junhou laughed, how about the Queen of Ghosts?

  After the first snow fell in Guanzhong, another guest came to Chang'an.

  The guests come not from the south, nor from the west, but from the east.

   "Sir, you have worked hard, you have been waiting for a long time."

  Feng Junhou knew that this person was coming, so he went to greet him outside the city in person. After seeing the real person, he bowed deeply first.

  Guo Mo hurriedly avoided the body, not daring to accept the gift:

   "Your Majesty is truly in trouble!"

  Feng Junhou insisted on saluting, and then stood up straight, and said solemnly:

   "No way. Mister went into the den of thieves alone, and he gave up his life and died. Outsiders don't know about Mr.'s achievements, but certain people know about Mr.'s great achievements."

  Guo Mo was ashamed when he heard the words:

   "Your Majesty, please don't mention these words again. A certain man was caught by a thief, and he didn't have the guts to commit suicide. For his own sake, he wanted to exhaust the Lord and exchange with the thief. It's ashamed and ashamed!"

  After speaking, he hid his face with his sleeve and dared not face Feng Junhou directly.

   Feng Junhou admired him even more when he saw him like this.

  He exhorted:

   "Mr., don't do this. If you have the Tao, you can be loyal to the big man. If you dare to go into the thief's den alone, there are few people who can do it."

   "If it were me, I would definitely not have the guts of my husband. If my husband says he has no courage, then what are we waiting for?"

  Guo Mo thought about the situation he would encounter after returning countless times along the way, but he never expected that he would be treated so courteously by Feng Junhou.

  But seeing the seven-foot-tall man, tears were shining in his eyes, his tone was a little choked, and he saluted Feng Junhou deeply:

   "Mo... I can't afford to be a gentleman to make such an evaluation! Mo came back with the cheek this time, just, just want to see the prime minister, and have something to say to the prime minister."

  Feng Junhou quickly helped Guo Mo up, laughed and said:

   "I haven't seen the prime minister for quite a while. When the weather clears, I will personally accompany my husband to Lantian to pay homage to the prime minister."

   After the two met, a person appeared next to him:

   "Zhao pays homage to the emperor."

  But seeing that this person is only in his mid-twenties, his clothes and manners are all impressive.

  The only thing that makes people feel uncomfortable is that the behavior is too deliberate.

"Who are you?"

  Feng Junhou looked at the other party and asked with some doubts.

   "I'm Sima Zhao, my father is the Grand Tutor of the State of Wei, you can call my son here."

   "Sima..."

  Feng Junhou almost called out "Zhao", and then forcibly changed it to "Sima Zishang?"

   "Hui Junhou, that's right."

  Feng Junhou stared at Sima Zhao who was saluting to him, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

   After a while, he said, "You don't need to be too polite, Mr. Sima Lang."

  He took a deep look at Sima Zhao who stood up straight:

   "I didn't expect Mr. Sima Lang to personally **** Mr. Guo back."

  Sima Zhao, this guy in front of you is the protagonist of "Sima Zhao's Heart, Everyone Knows".

  At this time, Sima Zhao was just twenty-seven years old, younger than Feng Junhou.

   Not to mention that he is not famous yet—at least in front of the famous Feng Junhou, he is still just a nobody.

   Glancing at the iron cavalry standing still in the wind and snow behind Feng Junhou, Sima Zhao only said that he was the unparalleled iron cavalry, and he was even more cautious.

  Feng Junhou asked with a complicated expression:

   "Is Sima Gong still in good health?"

   "Thank you for your concern, Your Excellency is in good health."

   Feng Junhou said with some regret: "Last year, it was a pity that I couldn't meet Sima Gong by the river."

  Sima Zhao replied:

   "Your Excellency also has something to say, it's a pity that I can't meet the king and lord by the Wei River."

   Feng Junhou burst out laughing when he heard the words.

  The so-called riverside refers to Feng Junhou's hope that Sima Yi will lead the army to cross the river and enter Hedong.

   And meet by the Wei River, it means that Sima Yi hopes that Feng Junhou will lead the army to cross the river to the Wei River.

  A ghost king and an old tortoise are masters who may run away at any time if the momentum is slightly wrong.

   "As expected of a character from the Sima family in Hanoi!"

   "Your Majesty has won the prize."

   "Please enter the city."

   "Thank you sir."

   Knowing that Sima Yi's second son personally escorted Guo Mo back to Chang'an, Zhang Xiaosi touched his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief:

   "It seems that Sima Yi doesn't want to make things big."

  But General Guan was still not satisfied:

   "After all, there is a handle in the hands of others."

  Zhang Xiaosi shook his head:

   "Alang is in a high position, how can he let everything go his way? Some things have to be done, but it is just the lesser of two evils."

  Feng Junhou in the living room of the front yard was also asking Sima Zhao:

   "I see that Mr. Sima Lang personally escorted Mr. Guo back. It seems that Mr. Sima has agreed to my request?"

  The so-called requirement is that after Wang Shuang returns to Wei, Sima Yi must ensure the safety of him and his family.

  Sima Zhao nodded:

   "To tell you the truth, my lord wants to return General Wang this time because he loves General Wang."

   "My lord, I guarantee that after General Wang returns to Wei, not only will he not be punished, but he will also be able to return to his original post."

  Feng Junhou frowned:

   "Are you serious?"

   Sima Zhao raised his hand and swore:

   "If there are false words, I will die a bad death."

   If you change someone else, you will believe it if you can’t say it.

  But when Feng Junhou saw the other party swearing, he just looked at him fixedly, not knowing what he was thinking.

   After a while, he nodded:

   "Forget it, it's up to now, I can't help but not believe it."

   As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at the screen, "Okay, General Wang, can you rest assured now?"

   A person turns out from behind the screen, who is it not Wang Shuang?

   "Dare to ask Mr. Sima Lang, my wife and child, are you okay?"

  Sima Zhao stood up and replied:

   "It seems that this is General Wang. Don't worry, General Wang. The late emperor inspected Xuchang, and in a hurry, he did not remove the family members of the Guanzhong army."

   "After the adults led the army back to Luoyang from Guanzhong, the first thing they did was to visit the families of the soldiers and resettle them."

   "Before I came out, I went to the general's mansion in person and took the token, please see the general."

  Wang Shuang took the token from Sima Zhao, with a look of excitement on his face.

   Then he bowed deeply to Sima Zhao:

   "Double thanks to Taifu for preserving his wife and children!"

   Salute Feng Junhou again:

   "Thank you, Jun Hou, for allowing me to reunite with my wife and children!"

   "It doesn't have to be like this. Speaking of it, I'm still at fault for this matter. I exchanged it with you in private. It's fine if you don't blame me."

   "As long as you can reunite with your wife and children, how can you dare to blame the prince before it's too late?"

  With Sima Langjun's guarantee—even in front of Feng Junhou.

   Wang Shuang no longer has any worries in his heart, and now he wants to return to Wei State and reunite with his family.
