Chapter 1042 Conflict between brothers


    Normally, parents love their children. Even if some don''t say it much or express it in different ways, they still think about their children all the time in their hearts and think that they are theirs no matter what. Children at home are better.


    ?This kind of connection between blood lines seems to be a natural inheritance, something engraved in the genes, and those extremely individual weird parents are like genetic mutations at best...


    Humphrey is no exception, he also likes his children.


    In this day and age, it is not easy to have a child. One is because in order to increase the population, both the Hu people and the Han people prefer early marriage and early childbearing. Even the Han laws clearly stipulate that if a woman wants to practice and become a Buddha, the tax she needs to pay may be more than that of an ordinary family. Direct bankruptcy.


    Therefore, most women were relatively young when they gave birth to their first child, and there were no professional hospitals in the Han Dynasty. The risks of childbirth and wound infection after childbirth have always been a concern for new mothers and newborns. Huge killer.


    Yu Fuluo is not young either. He used to be King Youxian, and now he is Shan Yu. There have always been a lot of women around him, and there are also many who have given birth to children, but now there are only five who survive...


    There are not a few people who died prematurely due to various reasons, and those who gradually grew cold in Huvroud''s arms.


    Therefore, Hufrault likes and loves these children who can grow up. If he has some free time, he will accompany the children to ride horses on the grassland and roll on the grass to play games. In this aspect, in fact, He is no different from an ordinary father.


    Suddenly hearing that Fei Qian raised this issue about the successor, Yuvluo couldn''t help but feel a little confused. If we follow the original custom, Hu Chuquan is now Yuvluo''s default successor.


    Brothers and brothers.


    This is considered by many Confucians to be a system that goes against human ethics, but it is determined by specific productivity factors. In the Han Dynasty, both the Hu people and the Han people did not live long. However, on the prairie where the Hu people lived, they followed the naked law of the weak and the strong. Therefore, when the previous generation died, the next generation was often not as old as Big, in such an environment, a weak successor cannot guarantee the orderly inheritance of the family tribe, so the rules of brothers and sisters came into being.


    But such a system goes against human nature.


    Feiqian looked at the somewhat silent Yuvluo, took a sip of wine, and then said nonchalantly: "Who doesn''t want his family to last for a long time, right, Shanyu... Shanyu?"


    "Ah..." Yuvrou came back to his senses, smiled sheepishly, and said, "Xiao Wang was distracted... What did the general say?"


    Fei Qian didn''t take it seriously and continued: "Heir, has Shanyu chosen who to be his heir?"


    Hufro was silent for a while, drank all the wine on the table, and said: "What else is there to choose? This heir... should be the younger king''s brother, Hu Chuquan..."


    "Ah? Oh..." Fei Qian let out a meaningful oh, and then said, "...This is all my fault. I have been with Shanyu for a long time, and the conversation is very enjoyable. Sometimes I forget...forget...forget it, no That’s it…drink, drink, try this dish, specially made from the finest lamb…”


    Humphrey couldn''t say anything more, or he didn''t know what to say, so he followed Fei Qian''s words and took the roasted lamb chops on the table without taking a bite. eating.


    ?After a while, Fei Qian changed the subject and talked about the Xianbei people.


    ??This time I teamed up with Huvrault, and it was a good cooperation. The Southern Huns are worthy of being a people on horseback, and their ability to march long distances cannot be underestimated. They and Ma Yue and others went around from the exit on the west side of the Yinshan Mountains to the north of the Manyi Valley Road, blocking Tuoba Guo''s way back. Road, this is all accomplished in one battle.


    ?But this matter can be regarded as tit-for-tat.


    When the Huns were strong, the people on the Donghu side were severely oppressed. Then, when the Huns were facing a direct confrontation with the Han army, the Donghu army set out from the Daxingan Mountains and attacked the king of the Huns. Court, resulting in the defeat of the Huns army on the frontal battlefield...


    The current Xianbei people are the extension and multiplication of the Donghu people at that time. In this way, it is somewhat like tit-for-tat.


    ?Speaking of this, Yuvluo also seemed to be interested again. This time he saw Tuoba Guo die in front of him. This kind of pleasure of revenge made Yuvluo very excited for a few days. When Yuvluo evacuated from the Royal Court of Meiji, he had sworn an oath, and now it is more than half completed, which makes Yuvluo particularly proud in front of his tribe.


    "Haha, this is natural, this is natural... It''s so happy, so happy..." Yuvro waved the meat bones of the lamb chops, as if he was sitting on horseback waving a sword, and said enthusiastically, "... Xianbei Dogs, it’s today too! Hahaha... By the way, the Xianbei dogs captured this time will be distributed according to the old practice?”


    ?Fei Qian nodded.


    ?These captured Xianbei people were actually reduced to slaves.


    Of course, in the Han laws of the Han Dynasty, heavy taxes were levied on those who kept slaves. In other words, in fact, the Han laws gradually reflected an aspect of abandoning the slavery system. However, in the actual process, the slavery system It lasted until the late feudal society, and there are still residues.


    ? ? Not to mention the Hu people of grassland culture. In their concept, the slavery system is the arrangement of Changshengtian...


    The losses in this war must be made up to some extent from these Xianbei people. The road leading to Yinshan Mountain is not perfect and needs to be repaired; the destroyed residential settlements also need to be rebuilt; the mining excavation and stone excavation in Luliang Mountain in Pingyang also lacks a large number of manpower...


    These Xianbei people are the best labor resources.


    Fei Qian said: "Just follow the old rules... However, these manpower is still not enough... It will be nice to get more people sometime... Oh, it''s okay, let''s drink and drink..."


    Yuvro retracted his wide-eyed eyes, and then drank with Fei Qian, but he was muttering in his heart that so many people had eaten it, and this Fei Qian was actually not enough, and he was still thinking about when to make another batch. It seemed that With this measure of my own, I should still consider the bigger picture...


    "By the way, talking about Xianbei...there is one thing that I think it is necessary to let Shanyu know..."


    Fei Qian suddenly remembered, waving to Huang Xu behind him, asking Huang Xu to fetch some military newspapers from the leather bag beside him, then rummaged through it, took out one, and asked Huang Xu to Pass it to Huvroud''s bodyguard.


    "Is this..." Hufro didn''t know what was going on, so he asked while taking the military report from his own bodyguard.


    Fei Qian said with a smile: "It''s just our military report... But some of the things in it are quite interesting... Shanyu can read it for himself..."


    Although Yuvluo didn''t know the Four Books and Five Classics like the intellectuals of the Han Dynasty, he still had no problem reading Chinese characters and some simple military reports. He unfolded Pingyang''s special kudzu paper, looked up and down for a few times, and frowned. He couldn''t help but frown.


    “General!” Humphrey pointed at the military newspaper with an ugly expression on his face and said, “Are these... true?”


    Fei Qian nodded and said: "This is not what we Han people say... Bai Shiqiang, you know... Well, the Bai Shi Qiang people also have some trade relations with us, exchanging some furs and so on... And these things are also Bai Shi Qiang''s People have seen it with their own eyes... Of course, even if you ask about this kind of thing, most people will say it doesn''t happen... And I think if we Han people go there, we may not see anything... Haha..."


    "Bai Shi Qiang?" Yu Fulo murmured, "That''s right. To do this, you must naturally avoid people''s eyes... If it weren''t for the Qiang people who originally lived in the surrounding area and chased water and grass, how would they have seen it?" Yu Fulo''s side He once again searched for the truth between the lines of the military newspaper, while muttering something unknown in Hun dialect, speaking very fast and extremely vaguely. Although Fei Qian also understood some Hun language, he still couldn''t hear anything clearly. He could only see Yuvrou''s face getting worse and worse, as if there was a ball of anger burning between his eyebrows.


    “@#@￥!”


    Humphrey suddenly yelled something, and then the general slapped the table hard. There was a loud "bang" sound, which immediately alerted the guards on both sides. Amidst the crashing sound of armor and iron pieces, everyone Surrounded the middle.


    "Well, it''s okay, it''s okay...just step back..." Fei Qian glanced at Yuvluo, and then waved his hand.


    Humphrey lowered his head and didn''t say a word. He just raised his hands and waved them above his head.


    ?The guards on both sides looked at each other, and then slowly retreated.


    “…” After a long time, Humphrey asked in a low voice, “Why didn’t the general tell me about this matter earlier…”


    The military newspaper mentioned that some Xianbei people were seen near Gaonu, who seemed to be envoys, and they were entertained by Huchuquan''s men...


    Of course, whether he is a real messenger or not, the military newspaper did not say it was completely confirmed, it just said it was suspected. But according to normal thinking, who would go for a walk on the other side''s territory if nothing happened?


    It’s not like I’ve eaten too much, so I went to the park for a walk to eat...


    Because at that time Yuvluo didn''t know whether he could successfully regain the royal court by following Fei Qian north, and he didn''t know what kind of accidents would happen, so he divided the tribe into two parts, most of them followed him, and the other small group Some of them stayed in Gaonu County with Huchuquan, so that even if something went wrong in their own line of work, there would still be some tribesmen who could represent their tribe and survive.


    However, Huvrault''s measures, which seemed quite thoughtful at the time, now appear to have some problems.


    Xianbei people appeared in Gaonu!


    And Yuvrou only learned about this from Fei Qian!


    Faced with such a situation, how could Humphrey not be angry?


    “Come here!” Humphrey suddenly called.


    “Wait a minute, Shan Su wants to send someone to check?” Fei Qian suddenly raised his palm to signal to stop him.


    "This is natural! This matter must be investigated clearly!" Humphrey said with a stern expression, his eyebrows raised.


    Fei Qian nodded slowly and said: "If the Chanyu wants to investigate, I have no objection... But now even if the Chanyu sends people to go, I''m afraid nothing can be found. Maybe not even a hair can be seen. I don''t know if the Chanyu , believe it or not?”


    "This..." Humphrey stared, as if he had been choked. He took a breath for a while, and then signaled the guards who came over to get down again.


    Yuvluo is not stupid either, so when Fei Qian said it, he naturally figured it out.


    "Haha..." Fei Qian chuckled twice and said, "Don''t blame Shan Yu, I just thought of a sentence... There is a sentence that says that soldiers who don''t want to be generals are not good soldiers. I don''t know if Shan Yu has Never heard of it?”


    "Huh?!" Yuvro said with eyes wide open, "Who said this? How dare you say such treacherous and deceptive words, you should be executed! If every soldier in the army thinks that he is a general, then who will be the general? Soldier, who will charge into the battle? Let the original general come?"


    The hierarchy is the foundation of the Hu people''s ruling class. Of course, it is also the fundamental method of many ruling classes, but some are more obvious and some are more subtle. Those who want to leapfrog the challenge will naturally touch the high-voltage line in the sky. Only when they survive the thunder tribulation can they reach the upper level.


    Fei Qian nodded and said, "Yes, I think so too... But, obviously someone wants to be a general..."


    “He dares!” Humphrey shouted angrily.


    Fei Qian shook his head and said: "This is no longer a question of whether you dare or not, but a question of how much you do..."


    Humphrey was speechless, and then said after a while: "...if it were you, the general...how would you deal with it?"


    "Is this..." Fei Qian smiled slightly and said, "Chan Yu... do you know ''Zheng Bike Duan Yu Yan''?"


    “What language?” Hufrault was obviously not very familiar with Zuo Zhuan and could not react for a moment.


    "Haha, it''s Zheng Burke and Duan Yuyan..." Fei Qian smiled, explained the matter a little bit, and then said, "...Look, Chanyu, why do you need to ask me how to do it? It''s all clear in the Chunqiu Zuozhuan. Written clearly in vain... Therefore, books are our most precious wealth. Generations of Han people have used these words and these books to pass on their experience bit by bit to the present and will also pass it on to the future. Tens of millions of years later…”


    Only when there is culture can there be a nation.


    Without its own culture, there is no real nation.


    Han, it is precisely these Chinese characters, Chinese language, Hanfu, and Hanzhang that ultimately come down to one continuous line and continue endlessly...


    Fei Qian seemed a little nostalgic when he talked about this. When I was in later generations, sometimes I really got tired of reading, and my father didn''t know much about enlightening and comforting him. He just repeated the sentence "Reading more books will eventually help" over and over again. Now that I think about it...


    "Alas..." Fei Qian sighed, raised his head half-way, looked at the sky, and said with a trace of nostalgia, "...Reading more books will help after all... My father often told me this. speak…"


    After a while, Humphrey suddenly said: "...General, I have a gracious request... Can you send a few knowledgeable people to my place to lecture on these scriptures... I actually like these very much, but Kunai the great scholar guides..."


    "Going to your place?" Fei Qian raised his eyebrows and said, "...I''m sorry, Chanyu, we are all old friends. To be honest...your place, haha, there is really no one who is willing to go...to teach here. In the end, you have to agree with me. Those who want to learn are willing to learn, and those who teach are willing to teach. Otherwise, they won’t be able to learn well and they won’t care enough to teach... Okay, I’ll ask for you. If not, just ask for a few months. , give a time limit or something... Of course, if you don''t teach well, you have to continue there, so as to put some pressure on these people and not fool our friends at will, Shanyu, don''t you think?"


    Yu Fuluo was overjoyed and quickly thanked Fei Qian. Fei Qian waved his hand and was about to say something when he suddenly looked up and looked around. He saw flags fluttering and curtains hanging...


    “Ah…the wind is blowing…”
