Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 1068 Troubles from adulteration

Turning over the rugged and winding mountain road in front of Diaoyin, passing through the small Diaoyin City Pass, bypassing a dense forest, and going back and forth, an open road finally appeared in front of the team. path of.

"This…"

   I can't remember how many times I was panting on the mountain road, how many times I staggered on the thorns and bushes and tore the corners of my clothes. These officials who followed Liu Xie all the way couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Yes, not only Liu Xie came, but also a group of officials of the big man. Among them, Fei Qian didn't recognize a few. After leaving the imperial court and staying away from Emperor Han, these people are probably at a loss.

Of course, it doesn't mean that these people are useless. Anyway, these people are veterans in dealing with political affairs. Whether it is for the transfer of documents or the coordination of civil affairs, they are very proficient. After all, these skills are also the capital for them to settle down. Naturally, it won't be any worse.

In the Han Dynasty, in fact, these so-called intellectuals were similar to those pure craftsmen to a certain extent, but the craftsmen made a living by making objects with the tools in their hands, while these officials attached themselves to the city through knives and pens. The government came up to make a living. Therefore, when Liu Xie was about to come to Pingyang, it was not surprising that such a group of officials followed him.

"this is…"

  The field of vision suddenly widened, and everyone looked at the road in front of them, a little in disbelief.

  Is this still the desolate north that you once remembered?

   Is this still the land of Shangjun where the barbarians plundered and the government moved?

   After standing still for a few seconds, these people looked at each other, and then they couldn't help showing a hint of joy.

   That's right, there is a little joy.

  I originally thought that following Liu Xie would definitely have to endure hardships...

   Youdao was addicted to black once, and then turned black all his life.

  The literati look down on each other, which seems to have been passed down through the ages. Being willing to evaluate and position others, even some malicious, casual, and slightly flippant definitions, became the only entertainment and pleasure among these Han Dynasty literati and officials.

  In their daily speech, Bingzhou is a word that appears with a different probability than garbage production. Where is the prosperity of the Han Dynasty? Naturally, there is only Luoyang in Chang'an, and the rest of the places are not as good as Jizhou and Yuzhou. Are there other places...

   It's all rubbish.

  It’s like they treat articles, except for their own writing, they are all rubbish. Even those high-ranking Confucians, although they dare not say it, they may not be convinced in their hearts.

   Therefore, coming to Bingzhou, for these people, the same is true in their hearts. In their memory, apart from the large number of Hu people, where is there anything good in Bingzhou? Desolate, smelly, arrogant, and lifeless, this is what the northern part of Bingzhou should look like. Where can there be such a road that is full of engineering beauty and conforms to the norms of the big man?

   and so on, perhaps beyond the general norms of the big man for the road.

  The first lesson for these people to contact Bingbei started from this road.

  Go forward again.

   It’s such a flat road!

As we all know, there is almost no hardening process applied, and there is no maintenance at all. The natural mud road is constantly experiencing the cycle of scorched, cracked, muddy and deep in the day after day, year after year of exposure to the sun and rain. After that, it will fall into an extremely strange state, the hard place is extremely hard, the rotten place is extremely rotten, the raised place is high and raised, and the sunken place is even deeper than the calf...

If it’s sunny, it’s fine, but as long as it’s raining, pedestrians, especially businessmen with large animals and vehicles that need to be taken care of more carefully, or the convoy needed to transport the army, in this way On the road, it is often like walking in a dangerous swamp!

  Maybe under the small puddle that looks calm and unwavering, there is a huge sinking hole that makes the vehicle unable to get up again, a desperate mud pit...

  If you want to get rich, build roads first.

  Although in the Han Dynasty, such a famous saying involving many aspects and containing profound philosophy was not very familiar and understood, but even anyone would like a smooth road, at least without so many traps.

  A road symbolizes the level of the territory and the spiritual outlook of Bingbei as a whole. It is not too much to say that. Even in the vicinity of Gyeonggi or even in the suburbs of Luoyang, such a similar level road can only be seen on the roads around Kyoto, and in places farther away, even if it is a large county, it is probably only about ten miles away from the county. The smooth road, the rest of the place...

Of course, if you look at it from the perspective of later generations, there are still many shortcomings in this road. Even if you are tolerant and confused in a corrupt state agency, I am afraid that you will not dare to stamp the qualified column during the acceptance inspection. It needs to be polished on the surface. There are obviously some gravel in the middle of the road like this, and there is not even a layer of asphalt. I really dare not make that meaning no matter how much I accept.

  However, such a road that could easily pull out contractors and shoot them in later generations appeared so perfect in the Han Dynasty, and even had a feeling of astonishment.

The potholes and gaps on the original road surface have been filled with clay and tamped completely. The large boulders and cylindrical heavy logs piled up on the side of the road can be seen at a glance to be used to tamp the road ground. The road will no longer repeat the old pattern in rainy days, and no longer will accumulate water. Grinding and providing more friction to passing traffic...

  Full of engineering beauty, symbolizing the road of human labor and wisdom, is undoubtedly the best language, and it also shows the overall economic strength under the jurisdiction of Bingbei and Feiqian.

   Has the land in Bingbei really become so rich?

   Fei Qian, the young General Zhengxi, actually has such a great ability?

   How on earth does this work?

  How could it be possible to do this?

  Everyone couldn't help turning their heads to look at the tricolor flag in the queue, and at the figure under the tricolor flag, circling various questions in their hearts, and also thinking about some other new ideas...

   This road was originally Qin Zhidao. It's just that after the Qin Dynasty, it was gradually abandoned. Without maintenance and repairs, the road gradually degenerated into the appearance of the mountain road before Diaoyin. It was gradually eroded by weeds and shrubs, and the original soil foundation gradually deteriorated. It peeled off and turned into an ordinary mountain dirt road with potholes.

  Originally, the Diaoyin side did not repair the road. It’s just that because of Diaoyin’s place, because of the relationship between Guanzhong, the geographical location is becoming more and more important, and the timeliness of news transmission is also increasing day by day, so starting from the road over Beiqu, along the original old road Dirt roads were refurbished and groomed.

Because of the relationship between time and the level of production technology, the extension speed of the new road is still relatively slow. If you want to really go to Diaoyin, or even go down along Diaoyin, I am afraid that not only will it take a lot of time, but you will also have to spend a lot of time. It took a huge amount of manpower and material resources, so for the time being, it is just a stretch to the south.

  In the distance on one side of the road, there is a labor camp following the road. Behind the camp, you can vaguely see various road repair materials piled up high. The small convoy that has been transporting supplies seems to have just arrived at this labor camp, so a group of ragged laborers are carrying some of the things transported by the convoy under the deployment of the supervisor.

   Labor labor is undoubtedly the most difficult, and it is also the bottom part of the whole society. They are burdened with the heaviest physical labor, but they can only get a little food that does not match what they pay.

And these labors have obviously been serving for a period of time. Although the distance is relatively long, it can be seen that these labors are exhausted, rickety and weak, and the clothes on their bodies are also tattered. Under the blowing, part of the limbs that were also extremely dirty were exposed...

This is a very common situation in feudal society. In the overall social environment with relatively low productivity, some corresponding projects can only be built through a lot of human labor, and labor is also a feudal lord. Rights, as long as the feudal lords feel the need, they will naturally recruit labor for construction, and this system has continued until later generations...

Of course, limited by mountains and rivers, soil quality, distance, safety, labor efficiency and other reasons, large-scale conquest and labor are actually a kind of damage to the normal agricultural activities in the territory, so most of the children of the gentry also subconsciously Some people believe that reducing labor and encouraging agriculture and mulberry is a kind of benevolent government.

  On the contrary, the current situation of a large number of labors seems to show a huge problem in Fiqian governance...

  "...The east is not clear, and the clothes are turned upside down. The upside-down is upside down, and the public calls it.

   Dongfang Weixi, upside down clothes. Upside down, from the public order.

   Fold Liu Fanpu, crazy husband Qu Qu. If you can't stay in the night, if you don't stay late, you won't..." A young man among the official team couldn't help moaning when he saw this situation.

  As soon as this remark came out, it immediately attracted some attention.

The Book of Songs is a compulsory course for every gentry child in the Han Dynasty, so when young people read this paragraph of Qi Feng, almost everyone understands the meaning and what this passage is about, so they all secretly read it by coincidence. Glancing at the banner of General Zhengxi in the queue, he subconsciously took half a step away from the young man's side without showing any trace, and pulled a distance that was not too close or too far.

  Young people are always full of vitality. Of course, such vitality is sometimes a good thing, but sometimes it is not necessarily...

   "...Well, it's not surprising that Hou's family style is enviable. He is very knowledgeable, and it is rare to be able to be compassionate. He is really a young talent..." An official whispered to another person.

   "Oh? Why do you say that?" Another person was a little puzzled.

   "Hehe, the eldest son of the unexpected just now, Fude Fuzizheng, with a song resonating with the wind, it is very suitable for the occasion..." The official stroked his beard and said hesitantly.

   "...I don't know which song Qi Feng is it?"

  The official looked around, leaned over, and said in a low voice: "...the east is unknown..."

  Another person suddenly realized: "Oh... The East is not yet clear..."

  Such a situation spread silently among the queues, but the parties involved didn't know anything about it, but even if they knew about it, they might not understand the stakes involved.

   Regarding this matter, Fei Qian, who was in the queue, hadn't noticed it yet, and he was worrying about what arrangement Liu Xie and his group would make.

On that day, Liu Xie said in front of all the officials that he was going to Bingbei and Yinshan. Naturally, he was jointly opposed by Yang Biao and Zhong Shao, but Liu Xie's attitude was unexpectedly tough and he insisted on not changing. And it's hard for Fei Qian to say anything, after all, he himself said a lot of things about Liu Xie in a serious manner before.

When there was a stalemate, Fu Wan came forward and said that the emperor's tour of the four directions was also due. He started from the time of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, saying that the Yellow Emperor had visited Daizong in the east, and Zhou Gong also sealed Taishan and patrolled Henan. Not to mention Emperor Wu, even Emperor Heng went from Luoyang to Chang'an on a hunting tour...

   This time, it is considered a step.

  Emperor Liu Xie did not move the capital, nor did he intend to settle in Pingyang for a long time, but only went on a hunting tour. Naturally, this was more acceptable to Yang Biao and Chong Shao than the emperor going away with Feiqian.

  Therefore, Zhong Shao returned to Chang'an with some people, and continued to love and kill Jing Zhaoyin, Zhao Wen, who was appointed by Yang Biao, and Yang Biao took some big Han officials to Luoyang...

  Of course, there are quite a few officials who follow Liu Xie, among them are Zhong Jie, the son of Zhong Shao, and Yang Xiu, the son of Yang Biao!

  That’s all, anyway, Fei Qian didn’t seem to have many impressions in his mind, but this famous chicken bone Yang Xiu...

  Special meow, who claims to be unique in trying to figure out people's hearts, and has a full level of fanning skills, such a kid, do you want to be like Cao Cao, find some excuses, haha...

   But just thinking about it.

  Because Yang Biao and Chong Shao’s actions are actually similar to the protons of the princes in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, and it is also an attitude that admits that Fei Qian is temporarily equal or even higher than the two of them.

   It's more or less a kind of gesture. Of course, there are other meanings in this, such as helping to keep an eye on Liu Xie, and sometimes secretly dragging his feet or something...

  The key is that Fei Qian must accept it now!

  Can’t you just draw your sword and say that I only want the emperor, um, and queen, and everyone else get out?

  But right now, I'm very troubled...

   Fei Qian sat on the horseback, closed his eyes, and wobbled.

  My original bureaucratic system is a relatively flat model, and now such a bunch of self-contained guys are suddenly added, it really feels like a handful of sand has been added to the gears that were originally working well...

   Alas, how should we deal with this?
