Chapter 1564 Yin Huanghuang
In December of the fourth year of Yanping.
Jihai and Renwu are suitable for making alliances, accepting gifts, meeting friends, making beds, and collecting wealth. Avoid praying and burying.
?The heavy snowfall for days finally stopped, and the originally pure and innocent ground began to gradually become filthy. Just like in life, it is clean when it is in the sky, but becomes dirty as soon as it falls to the ground.
?Liu Bei stood outside a courtyard in Anpingfang, southwest of Chengdu, feeling a little dazed. He didn''t expect that Fei Qian, the general of Zhengxi, would drag him here with him, just like he didn''t expect that Fei Qian would take him with him all the way south.
It’s not that he was afraid of death, because Liu Bei already had some experience in surrendering.
The first half a year after the surrender is basically a safe period. It will slowly start to become dangerous after half a year. It will be most dangerous in one to three years. After three years...
Who the **** is still here after three years?
Basically, as long as they don''t seek death, within about half a year after the surrender, basically no prince will immediately kill someone. Unless the prince''s head is full of paste, otherwise he will not commit suicide like this. There is a way out.
??So Liu Bei is not very worried about Fei Qian''s murder, but he is a little worried about how to deal with the problem of settling him next, just like how Liu Bei settled Liu Zhang before...
?That''s right, this courtyard is where Liu Bei placed Liu Zhang.
Liu Bei only came here twice, once to see it himself, and the second time to see Liu Zhang here.
The camphor tree at the door seemed to be still half-dead, being weighed down by the wind and snow as if it would collapse and break in the next moment.
The stone steps were wet, mixed with mud and snow, and seemed to be a little frozen. No matter how you looked at them, you felt awkward. Of course, the most important thing was the person standing on the stone steps, the smiling General Fei Qian of Zhengxi.
How can you stand so steadily?
Liu Bei was muttering in his stomach, and then he saw General Zhengxi turning his face and quickly put on a cute smile.
“I heard that this place was chosen by Xuande, do you have any explanation?” General Fei Qian of Zhengxi asked slowly.
How to choose?
??Isn’t it surrounded by high walls and located in a relatively remote area of ??Chengdu, making it very convenient for surveillance and supervision?
This, how is it easy to say this?
ah?
? Could it be that he is preparing to put himself under house arrest like Liu Zhang?
Liu Bei shivered subconsciously, then faced Fei Qian''s probing eyes and said with a slightly embarrassed smile: "The power of a winter, even this..."
Fei Qian laughed, then stopped asking and walked into the yard.
The yard is neither big nor small, with three entrances.
?Siheyuan is not a patent of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but it reached its peak state during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. As early as the Western Zhou Dynasty, courtyards had appeared, and there were many in the Han Dynasty, and some Feng Shui theories were added to make them more sophisticated. After that, there were some changes in every dynasty until the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Entering the outer courtyard gate, you are faced with a screen wall. The huge word "福" on it looks very down-to-earth, but the original red paint has peeled off in many places, revealing a gray-black base. The chalk on the screen wall is also mottled, and some blue and black can be seen in some places. It seems to be some moss or something.
The ground is paved with square stones. Although the snow has been swept away, because the surface of the stone strips is uneven, there is still some residual snow and water, making it wet.
Walking through the outer courtyard, I turned around and came to the hanging flower door. One of the pillar capitals that was supposed to be carved pillars and decorated with lotus petals was also missing, and the other one was also very incomplete...
"Hey..." Fei Qian said with a smile, "These two good ones are called Zimanpenglian. Now there is only one left, but I don''t know what to call him?"
?Liu Bei lowered his eyebrows and pretended he didn''t hear him as long as Fei Qian didn''t call him by name.
After entering the second gate, the vermilion pillars on the cloister are also old and peeling. Many pillars even have large pieces peeling off where they rest on the railings, revealing the gray-brown wood surface. Under the infiltration of snow water, it looks like it has been soaked. Chenpi that has been aged for a long time will never be able to regain the smooth and supple appearance it had when it was fresh.
Liu Zhang stood in the inner courtyard. There are some withered weeds around.
Perhaps because the New Year was approaching, or perhaps because Fei Qian and others were coming, Liu Zhang wore a relatively new robe. The creases on the brocade robe were still very deep. When he saw Fei Qian, he quickly bowed and said: "General Zhengxi arrived, but he failed to greet him from afar. He is guilty, guilty..."
According to his age, Liu Zhang should be less than 20 years old, but both his expression and movements are as dull as a statue, as slow as an old man in his seventies or eighties, and he completely lacks the energy that a young man should have. god.
"Get up..." Fei Qian stood in front of Liu Zhang, received a salute, and walked past without any intention of pulling him, "Come in and talk..."
Liu Bei followed Fei Qian without saying a word. He glanced at Liu Zhang, but retracted his gaze when Liu Zhang raised his eyes and looked back. Then he lowered his head and entered the hall.
Liu Zhang stood up and looked at Liu Bei''s back. His expression seemed to be more alert. The corners of his mouth were raised, and he didn''t know whether he was crying or laughing.
? Huang Xu ordered two or three braziers to be brought in and placed them in the hall, and then ordered hot soup to be served. Suddenly, the originally cold and damp house gradually became warmer.
Fei Qian took a few sips of the hot soup, put down the bowl, and after a moment of silence, suddenly said: "If a person has no manners, what will he do if he doesn''t die? Ji Yu, if you can chase those who are going, what should you do?"
Wuyi can be interpreted as having no dignity or virtue. A person without dignity is naturally Liu Zhang, but a person without virtue...
In life, the most useless thing is regret, but this most useless thing is often the most difficult to get rid of. Liu Zhang was no exception. When he was under house arrest alone in this prison, he would inevitably recall his previous actions again and again in his heart, and regret would naturally gnaw at Liu Zhang''s heart day and night. Therefore, when Fei Qian asked this question, Liu Zhang''s originally dull face immediately became distorted, and his hands tightly grasped the seat under his knees with such force that Liu Bei beside him was a little frightened.
"Dang...dang..." Liu Zhang gritted his teeth and glared at Liu Bei, "I regret that I should have listened to the villain..."
Fei Qian nodded slightly, without looking at Liu Bei''s expression, because Fei Qian knew that Liu Bei would hide it well, so he said slowly: "Then, Ji Yu means that if you listen to Zhongliang''s words, you can guard Sichuan and Shu alone. Huh?”
“…” Liu Zhang was stunned and speechless.
Liu Bei''s face was expressionless, but his beard trembled slightly.
"How can it be that if he eats fish, he must be a carp in the river? Why if he takes a wife, he must be the son of Song Dynasty?" Fei Qian said again, "Does Ji Yu understand?"
"This..." Liu Zhang lowered his head slowly, "I understand..." "Haha," Fei Qian chuckled twice, then shook his head and said, "Why would Ji Yu lie to someone?"
Liu Zhang raised his head suddenly, then quickly lowered his head, "I have no lies..."
Fei Qian looked at Liu Zhang, paused for a moment, and said: "Well, even if you didn''t lie...but you have a complaint! You blame this day, because the weather is not at the right time! You blame this land, it is thorny and thorny! You blame this person, People''s hearts are against you! I blame Xuande for taking away your inheritance! I also blame someone for occupying Sichuan!"
Immediately, Liu Zhang''s face turned pale, and he quickly fell to the ground, saying that he did not dare. Even in the coldest month of winter, the sweat on Liu Zhang''s head was still rolling down. After a while, one after another of different sizes appeared on the wooden floor. The circle comes out.
"If there is resentment in the sky, even if the wind and rain are smooth, it will still not be able to support the people! If there is resentment in the earth, if it comes from the thick soil, it will still not be able to satisfy its desires! If people have resentment, if they have to work hard all year round, they will still suffer hundreds of deaths! Xuande has Resentment, even if you try your best to complain, you will still be defeated on the battlefield! If someone has a complaint, it will be difficult to find loyal ministers, and they will still be duplicitous!"
? Fei Qian finished grunting in one breath, then looked at Liu Bei and Liu Zhang with a half-smile but not a smile, and said, "You two, do you think so?"
Liu Bei is relatively bachelor and cheeky. He raised his hands and said without changing his expression: "What the general said is profound and profound, which is very thought-provoking..."
Liu Zhang was still relatively young, and he didn''t know whether it was because of Fei Qian or because he couldn''t get rid of the anger he had accumulated over the years. He refused to admit it and said, "What the general said is wrong! I have no complaints at all." !”
"Hahaha..." Fei Qian laughed, then nodded and said, "Shan, you have no resentment, okay?"
In the final analysis, Liu Zhang is still a naughty kid who has not experienced many trials and hardships. Even if society teaches him how to behave, he may not be able to immediately repent and face himself like a son of destiny. What''s more, Fei Qian is not here today to educate Liu Zhang, or to argue with Liu Zhang to get better...
Fei Qian stretched out his hand slightly to the side. Huang Xu understood and immediately took out a golden seal from his arms and put it in Fei Qian''s hand.
Fei Qian casually threw the gold seal on the table and turned it upside down.
The two people''s eyes immediately seemed to be glued to the golden seal, and then their eyes shrank when they were engraved with five characters. This turned out to be "Yizhou Governor''s Seal"!
“You two, here is the seal,” Fei Qian pointed to the golden seal and said meaningfully, “Which one wants to get it?”
Liu Bei was the first to react. He first looked at Fei Qian''s face carefully, then frowned and thought about whether there was any problem. In the blink of an eye, he didn''t know how many thoughts passed by, but he didn''t expect...
“I want it!”
Liu Zhang suddenly shouted, his voice seemed to be broken, and he stared at Fei Qian eagerly.
Liu Bei was startled, and then quickly looked at Fei Qian.
Fei Qian chuckled and waved his hand. Huang Xu stepped forward, picked up the gold seal, and placed it in front of Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang was like a dog that had been hungry for seven or eight days when he saw the meat and bones. He immediately pounced on it and held the golden seal tightly in his hands. When the cold and heavy feeling was transmitted to Liu Zhang''s brain, the feeling of The joy of regaining power and status stimulated Liu Zhang to reveal an extremely happy smile, opened his mouth wide, and giggled, almost drooling.
Liu Bei watched helplessly, grunted involuntarily, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then looked at Fei Qian in disbelief, but when he saw Fei Qian''s smiling face, he was stunned and turned away thoughtfully. eyes.
Liu Bei never believed in prophecies such as destiny. In other words, when he was young, he was hard-headed and wild-minded. However, after experiencing failure and setbacks again and again, he would sometimes secretly murmur about destiny. The words are also somewhat doubtful, just like many people who are half-empty do not think they are half-empty, but people who know more often feel that they know too little, and then unknowingly push themselves to the limit. Another side...
It seems that so-and-so was born into a religion.
However, Liu Bei still has a lot of restraint and maturity. For example, although he has already guessed some of the intentions of General Fei Qian in the Conquest of the West, he still remains silent and does not try to show it to let others know how much he is. How amazing, how smart, how keen and perceptive.
Liu Zhang was deposed.
Even if Liu Zhang got the seal of the governor of Yizhou, he couldn''t do anything. He just lost the seal...
This was not surprising to Liu Bei, because although Liu Zhang had undergone some changes, he was still not a great weapon. He even didn''t even ask a question when he got the Yizhou governor''s seal!
Even if he didn’t ask anything else, just asking about the original owner of the Yizhou governor’s seal and how he was doing now, Liu Bei even felt that Liu Zhang had made some progress, at least he knew how to use his brain...
Liu Bei followed Fei Qian out of the courtyard again, and Liu Zhang followed suit. He was smiling so much that his tail was wagging between his hips. Naturally, he didn''t look as arrogant as he did when he was standing in the inner courtyard at the beginning...
Liu Bei saw this and felt a burst of emotion in his heart.
Every gain must come with a loss...
Who would have thought that at that time, he was as illustrious as Liu Yan, but today he is as panicked as Liu Zhang?
??The human methods used in conquering the West seem to be on par with Cao Cao and Cao Mengde...
"Ji Yu, please stay here for a few days until the construction of the governor''s office is completed before moving..." Fei Qian said to Liu Zhang with a smile, and then ordered his surroundings, "As long as the governor has daily necessities, all of them will be provided. No mistakes!”
The surrounding petty officials quickly bowed and agreed.
Fei Qian encouraged Liu Zhang a few more words, then got on his horse and headed for the city. Unlike most Han officials, Fei Qian preferred riding horses to riding in cars. Liu Bei naturally followed Fei Qian, about one horse behind.
??The sound of horseshoes hitting the stone slabs is crisp and clear, accompanied by the sound of the armor scales clashing, like a piece of Han Dynasty music.
Liu Bei slowly turned his head and still saw Liu Zhang''s figure in the distance in the street. Standing upright outside the gate and staring blankly, he couldn''t help it. He let out a light sound and laughed, but suddenly he noticed something strange in front of him and turned around. But when he saw General Zhengxi''s half-smiling face, he trembled with fright and almost fell off his horse!
“Xuande, why are you shivering?” Fei Qian asked slowly, “But do you feel cold?”
"Well, this... the power of winter, even this..." Liu Bei responded without hesitation.
Fei Qian glanced at Liu Bei again and said with a smile, "Did Xuande understand what happened today?"
"This..." Liu Bei hesitated, "Some understand it, some don''t understand it..."
Fei Qian laughed, as if he was in high spirits, pointed forward with his hand, and said: "There is Qingyang Restaurant right in front of you. Let''s go and have a look. How about a cup of hot tea?"
Liu Bei naturally had nothing to do, so he followed Fei Qian forward.
