Chapter 1867 When you regret, you will know how to work hard


    When Fei Qian was young, he always felt that the exploitation and value he saw seemed too far away from him. However, in the Han Dynasty, Fei Qian clearly saw all kinds of cruel exploitation, and the key is the relationship between this exploitation and the What the majority of the people agree with is that there is no need for the RM rich to emphasize 996, or to say that working overtime is a blessing, and if you don’t work overtime, you will lose money. All people will automatically and voluntarily work overtime every day and work for more than 16 hours a day. , in a social environment like the Han Dynasty, those so-called wealthy capitalists who represent public opinion would laugh in their dreams.


    So, when people who own capital and are controlled by capital, whether in the Han Dynasty or in later generations, will they actively give up their interests?


    Isn’t there a saying, uh, Comrade Lu Xun, please don’t get excited and sit down first... that is, don’t use money to test human nature, because human nature often cannot withstand such a test...


    Some people who were born under the red flag and received the education of the red flag, after holding a large amount of capital, can openly speak out the kind of remarks that violate labor laws and social ethics. In the Han Dynasty, these people have exploited the people three times. How could a 400-year-old Shandong gentry family willingly send away Liu Xie, who they regarded as just a piece of fat?


    If Fei Qian had just asked Xun You to say "hunting to the west", then maybe Liu Xie would have agreed impulsively, and then these Shandong nobles would have immediately regarded Fei Qian as a thorn in their flesh, wishing they could kill the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder General on the spot. Fei Qian was in trouble, but now, even the Shandong nobles feel that Fei Qian''s three-color flag seems cute to a certain extent.


    You can talk about morality when it comes to one person or a small group of people, but you can only talk about rules when it comes to a large enough group. The nobles are a very interesting group. When they need to talk about morality, these guys start to talk about rules, and when they need to talk about rules, they start to talk about morality. The key is that these rules and morals can also change their shapes as they please to adapt to them. needs at different stages.


    In the Spring and Autumn Period, Zuo Qiuming of the State of Lu wrote in "Zuo Zhuan Zhao Gong''s Seventh Year": "Therefore, the "Poetry" said: "Under the sky, is it the king''s land; on the shore of the land, is it the king''s ministers." Sima Xiangru of the Han Dynasty was also there "Nan Shu Lao Lao" wrote: "Under the sky, everything is the king''s land; on the shore of the land, there are no kings and ministers." 』


    This is the morality and rules recognized by the Han Dynasty or the current feudal dynasty. Then, the nobles claimed that the land belonged to the "king", and secretly put it into their own pockets. They tried their best not to pay or pay less taxes, embezzled the "king''s" population, and then controlled it in their own hands. If he doesn''t get what he wants, he will use these people and land to threaten him. Even if the "king" can kill one or two nobles, some nobles will still die one after another.


    The benefits are so great that even the saint cannot control his own hands.


    Ever since, since yesterday, people have been nagging Liu Xie in his ears. The only purpose is to ensure that Liu Xie is still within their reach, because no matter which capitalist he is, he hopes that he will The more capital, the better, regardless of whether the capital can be used immediately.


    So after Xun You proposed the so-called "capital relocation" proposal, there was no follow-up to this matter. Instead, other things were promoted in full swing and entered the process of substantive and specific operations.


    Like exchanging hostages, uh, prisoners?


    ??Anyway, that''s pretty much the idea. After Cao Cao returned to the city, he sent Li Dian''s family members out of the city without saying anything. He also packed some of Li Dian''s family''s belongings and sent them out together.


    Cao Cao was a bachelor and said that the defeat was not Li Dian''s fault. It was all Cao Cao''s own poor thinking that led to Li Dian being captured. He expressed with emotion the merits of Li Dian under his command, and lamented that since they all came from People from all over the world have gathered together for a common goal. Now the goals are different. It’s easy to get together and easy to break up. I don’t mean to blame Li Dian. I just said that I didn’t give Li Dian a better chance. I believe in Li Dian’s future. There will be better development on the new platform...


    Cao@人@wife, well, of course the original text of Cao Personnel is not this, but the meaning is correct. Just like if you have resigned from the company, the company will still find ways to squeeze out the last drop of profit and water. The same is true for Cao Cao. Since Li Dian This matter is irreversible, so it is better to make the best use of it.


    In reciprocity, Fei Qian also sent someone to send Xiahou Chong back.


    ?However, for Xia Houchong, what he faced may not be like Li Dian.


    ?? Cao Cao said a lot about Li Dian, but when he saw Xia Houchong, he didn''t say anything. He just smiled, patted Xia Houchong on the shoulder, and then left.


    "Father...Father..." Xiahou Chong turned his head tremblingly and said to Xiahoudun who stayed behind.


    Xiahou Dun was silent for a moment, nodded, and said, "Come on, follow me." 』


    After returning to Xiahou''s mansion, Xiahou Dun first ordered some food to be prepared, and then asked Xiahou Chong to wash up and change clothes before returning. However, Xiahou Dun himself sat in the lobby, looking at the candlelight in a trance.


    Xiahou Dun has not fully recovered from his illness. Even now, he is still a little dizzy, but when it comes to his son Xiahou Chong, he is quite sober.


    "Father..." Xia Houchong timidly bowed his hands in front of the hall.


    Xiahoudun raised his head, glanced at Xiahouchong, and then pointed to the seat next to him, "Sit down, are you hungry?" I didn’t prepare anything at home, so I just had something to eat! 』


    Xia Houchong responded, then sat down, glanced at Xiahou Dun secretly again, and then quickly withdrew his gaze, as quiet and well-behaved as a quail.


    ‘How is it among the hussars? ” Xiahou Dun asked.


    "This... child was imprisoned in the rear camp with little daylight, so..." Xia Houchong replied quickly. After saying a few words, he secretly glanced at Xiahou Dun before continuing, "The hussars and horses are all elite, and the armor is strong." , there are many people who are good at fighting, it is really difficult..."


    Xiahou Dun waited for a while, and when he saw that Xiahou Chong had just said this, he did not continue to urge him. Instead, he remained silent for a moment and signaled Xiahou Chong to eat first, while he brought some thin wine and drank one glass at a time.


    At the beginning, Xia Houchong was still a little wary of Xia Houdun sitting aside, but as he ate, the juicy stewed meat and the crispy pancakes fully aroused Xia Houchong''s almost dry appetite and stimulated it. After many days of eating only coarse grains, Xia Houchong gradually relaxed his taste buds, eating with big mouthfuls and sipping the broth.


    Not long after, Xia Houchong was full, and then he seemed to have recovered slightly from his appetite, and secretly wiped his greasy fingers under the table...


    Many people have some bad habits, such as lying on the bed and looking at their phones while picking their noses after washing. Some people like to smack their mouths when eating, or pick their toes and smell them twice more, or sit still. When he got to his seat, he wanted to kick off his shoes and cross his legs to get on the kang, etc. Xia Houchong''s habit was to smear oil under the table, and he always thought that no one saw it.


    This habit is very strange, but even if I consciously want to correct it, it is difficult. It will appear again inadvertently. Just like now, Xiahou Dun also asked Xiahou Chong to correct this habit, but sometimes Xiahou Chong changed it. But sometimes it reappears. After Xia Houchong subconsciously wiped his greasy fingers a few times, he suddenly reacted. He hurriedly glanced at Xiahou Dun secretly, and found that Xiahou Dun didn''t seem to be looking at him, so he secretly took a breath.


    ‘Sikong released Li Mancheng’s family members…’ Xiahou Dun said, as if he was talking to himself or to Xia Houchong.


    Xiahou Chong didn''t know what was going on. Hearing this, he looked at Xiahou Dun blankly for a moment, and then lowered his head.


    "Li Mancheng is talented, studious, elegant, respectful and prudent, and has a long history of strategy. Now..." Xiahou Dun''s eyes were dark, as if he was looking into the distance, and he seemed not to be looking at anything. He said again, "My lord has released Man Cheng''s family, what do you think?" ? 』


    "This..." I don''t know why, Xia Houchong suddenly felt a little panicked in his heart, "My lord... my lord... you are magnanimous, this..."


    Xiahou Dun nodded slowly, "That''s right, magnanimous... That''s because the lord has to be magnanimous!" If not, how can we give up? ! According to the law, Li Mancheng lost his city and soldiers and rebelled to survive! What crime cannot be punished? ! 』


    Xia Houchong was unconsciously sweating from his forehead, and he was sobbing without speaking.


    "Under the lord, there are foreign surnames and surrendered generals..." Xiahou Dun said slowly, his voice was not loud, but every word was very powerful, "The hussars are coming with thunder, and the hearts of the people are shaken. If this strategy is not adopted..."


    Yes, for Cao Cao, he must have been quite unhappy with Li Dian''s act of surrender. It was already considered very good not to hold Li Dian''s crime to account against his family, and he also offered his family wealth with both hands. This is a What''s your mood? What? Li Dian’s personal problems cannot involve his family? What a joke, even if there are many children in later generations who owe money, creditors will still come to the door and force their parents to pay off the debt, let alone the Han Dynasty.


    But Cao Cao still endured it, because Cao Cao also understood that everyone''s position was different and they looked at things from different angles. For Cao Cao, Li Dian''s behavior was betrayal, but for Li Dian or others For generals with foreign surnames, they may not necessarily feel it is betrayal, just like Zhang He, Chen Deng, etc. In their minds, this may be the so-called "choosing a good tree to live in"!


    Now, Cao Cao is at the critical moment of consolidating Jizhou. He can''t show it and say that only I am allowed to be a good tree here, but anyone who wants to go elsewhere will die for me...


    Therefore, Cao Cao could only swell his face, and then generously stated that Li Dian''s incident was not a betrayal, but just a good "talent exchange" between him and Qiusi. The reason why Cao Cao specifically emphasized Li Dian''s previous achievements was, It has two meanings. One is that Li Dian''s contributions over the years and the treatment Cao Cao gave him offset each other and do not owe each other. It also implicitly means that if others have this idea, they should consider themselves first. Have you created enough credit for Cao to offset...


    Another aspect is to create a bit of a barrier between Li Dian and Hussar, but it may not be effective.


    Li Dian is like this, but Xia Houchong is different.


    Xiahou Dun turned his head and looked at Xia Houchong. The expression in his eyes changed. I can''t fly, I want to run but I can''t.


    Li Mancheng can be exempted from any responsibility because of his merits... Let me ask, what merits did you have? What kind of honor can there be? Xiahou Dun said slowly.


    "This..." Xia Houchong swallowed, "Father...Father..."


    The Lord Chen Liu raised an army and was almost in danger of death. Zi Lian and Zi Xiao even braved the edge and rushed to the battlefield. He was hit by swords, guns and arrows, and suffered countless injuries! I am so lucky to have my current foundation... Even my lord''s own flesh and blood are stained with blood... Xiahou and Cao are originally one family. They both prosper and suffer..." Xiahou Dun said in a low voice, "Chong''er, since you are Xiahou, you enjoy this. To make offerings, one should also share the family''s worries... as a child, right? 』


    "Father...Father, what you said is very..." Xia Houchong was panicked, but he couldn''t say anything else.


    Xiahou Dun smiled, somewhat bitterly and helplessly, nodded and said: "In that case... Chong''er, you have neither merit nor merit, so how can you be exempted from responsibility?" 』


    “But, but...my lord, my lord did not say anything to punish me...” Xia Houchong seemed to realize that something was wrong and quickly defended.


    Xiahou Dun nodded, then raised his head and looked upward, "This is the face of my lord Gu Quan Xiahou... However, Xiahou must not destroy the family tradition!" Someone come! 』


    ??The guards who were originally in the hall suddenly came in and saluted Xiahou Dun.


    Xiahou Dun closed his eyes and said, "This rebellious son... will be beheaded!" 』


    Xia Houchong screamed in fright and knocked down the table. Immediately, the bean dishes and remaining food on the table rolled down, leaving a mess, "Father!" The child is wrong! Correction, kid! The kid doesn’t dare anymore! My child will definitely not dare to do it next time! Father...』


    Xiahou Dun shook his head and sighed, "Chong''er, you have neither courage nor strategy. Even if you have been trapped in the hussar camp for many days, you don''t know what the pros and cons are... I know that your talent is not high." , I originally thought that in the military, I would have some experience, which would increase my knowledge and accumulate merits... but I never thought of actually harming you... After the execution, it is convenient for me to keep all the utensils at home as usual, just to protect your longevity... Right, right, you were born a useless person! Execution! 』


    "No! don''t want! Father! Father! No! Father..." Xia Houchong screamed, and then he was picked up by several guards and dragged out of the lobby.


    Xiahou Dun stood in the hall, closed his eyes for a long time, and seemed to turn a deaf ear to Xiahou Chong''s miserable cry. It was not until he heard the huge scream that his whole body trembled, and a little crystal fell from the corner of his eye, hitting the ground. Like blood splattering...
