Three Kingdoms

   Chapter 318 How to choose

   "Wen Zheng, come, sit down..."

  In the tent, Fei Qian was flipping through some materials by the residual light of the evening. When he saw Du Yuan coming, he asked him to sit down.

   But, every time Fei Qian called Du Yuan's name, he felt very awkward—by the way, can the person in front of him resist using two words?

Although Fei Qian also knew that in the Han Dynasty, the literati had not yet formed the obsessive pursuit of posthumous titles. After the Tang Dynasty, the literati would pay special attention to this, but for the word Du Yuan, it is still How to call it awkward.

  Especially when you see Du Yuan himself, this sense of disobedience is even stronger. You said that you are a guy who is as black as an African chief, and your name is Wen Zheng...

  cough cough...

Ok.

   After Fei Qian received the appointment, when he summoned the county officials, Du Yuan was the only one present.

  Du Yuan's father originally belonged to Congcao of Shangjun, but later moved to Luoyang City because of the lack of governance of the entire county. At the same time, the Du family was originally a small noble family in Shangjun. It was for the same reason that they lost their original land and manor, and the whole family fell into ruin. His father died of depression after a serious illness. Repeatedly talking about wanting to go back to my hometown...

  Thus, although Du Yuan is no longer an official under Shangjun, when he heard that the imperial court sent someone back to Shangjun, he joined Feiqian without hesitation.

   "Ahem, Wenzheng," Fei Qian flipped through the documents in his hand, and said, "Can you tell me something about the time before and after the governance of Qiao? The documents on my side are very vague and incomplete."

   "I don't know what the lord wants to ask?" Du Yuan was not as relaxed as Fei Qian, but still said firmly.

  The definition of monarchs and ministers in the Han Dynasty not only refers to the emperor and ministers, but also refers to teachers and disciples, and also refers to local chiefs and their subordinate officials.

  Thus, people like Du Yuan who have defected to Fei Qian's name and were formally enlisted by Fei Qian as the Cong Cao of the Shangjun County naturally changed their title to Fei Qian as the lord.

"Don't be so serious, just chat casually," Fei Qian tapped the table lightly, expressing his doubts, "In the first year of Zhongping, Shangjun was governed by overseas Chinese, but in the fourth year of Zhongping, there were still local topography... "

  Du Yuan lowered his head, was silent for a while, and then said: "...the fourth year of Zhongping...the topography was strictly reported..."

   Fei Qian was also silent, and then said: "Sorry, Wen Zheng."

Du Yuan shook his head, adjusted himself, and then said: "In the first year of Zhongping, the left side of the Southern Xiongnu rebelled with the pious Qiang and Laojie Qiang, and plundered the Xihe, Shangjun, Shuofang, and Yanmen areas...Xiayang was also attacked. , Later, following the order of the Shangjun, the Shangjun government was moved to Luoyang..."

   "Shangling" naturally refers to the emperor. Since Du Yuan called Fei Qian the lord, of course the person above the lord refers to the emperor.

Fei Qian nodded, and he had a little idea, because the records only wrote the twelve words "In the first year of Zhongping, the Qiang and Hu plundered, and moved to Luoyang". If you didn't find the person involved, who would know What exactly happened behind these twelve words.

  However, what Du Yuan said still made Fei Qian very puzzled.

   You must know that Xia Yang is already quite close to Sansuke, and although Xijing Chang'an was not the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was an important place in the Han Dynasty after all. How could it be so weak?

  If you use the later generations as a comparison, it is the feeling of being in Kyoto and almost being raped by barbarians to the Summer Resort, where the knife and gun are almost stabbed under the nose.

Fei Qian looked through the information again, and then said: "Aren't there any garrisons in Shangjun, Xihe, Shanyang and other places? Even if there are none of these, what about the three auxiliary lands? Sister Qiang, you were all attached to me before, why did you rebel again and again?"

  Du Yuan said: "In the first year of Zhongping, this... was basically transferred..."

   Fei Qian patted his forehead lightly. Although he had spent some time in the Han Dynasty, he was still somewhat uncomfortable with this year. You must know that this is the first year of the famous Zhongping!

  I couldn't react, I really shouldn't.

  The Yellow Turban Rebellion happened in the first year of Zhongping.

I see.

  The garrison was transferred away, and then the Hu people rebelled when they saw an opportunity.

  So if you put it this way, the question here is a bit interesting...

  However, Fei Qian didn't want to explain it either, because the story here is relatively deep, and the people and things involved are more complicated, and he hasn't been able to fully sort it out yet.

In other words, editing history books in all dynasties and dynasties is a huge project. Not only do a few big-level literary leaders sit in charge, but also a lot of younger brothers are mobilized to go down a little bit, because of the records about these things. There are few, and often for one reason or another, intentionally or unintentionally cover up and ignore, so that later people can't find relevant reference materials at all when they need to know, and can only rely on some clues Explore slowly.

   In the first year of Zhongping, in February, the Yellow Turban Rebellion officially broke out. It was like a fire igniting hay and spread to the whole country.

   These are all superficial and easy to relate to each other, but what about digging deeper?

  Why did Qianghu rebel as soon as the soldiers here were transferred?

  Why are the barbarians who have been attached for a long time and have changed from nomadic to settled mode, but are still brutal?

   Fei Qian asked suddenly: "Wen Zheng, is your hometown in Beiqu? Is there anyone still there?"

"Exactly, north of Beiqu, south of Dingyang." Speaking of his hometown, Du Yuan's dark face showed a trace of nostalgia, but this nostalgia quickly turned into sadness, "... Ying There is no one else, my Du family moved relatively late... Before that, many families have moved away..."

   Feiqian nodded. On this matter, he found two data in the materials sent by Cai Yong:

  One is in the second year of the first year of Emperor Ping of the Han Dynasty, there were 103,683 households in Shangjun, 606,658 households, and 23 counties...

  In the fifth year of Emperor Shun Yonghe, Shangjun had 5,169 households and a population of 20,000,599, leaving only ten cities...

While Fei Qian was still thinking about the problem, suddenly Huang Cheng came in, showing some embarrassment, and greeted Fei Qian and Du Yuan, and said, "Fei Zhonglang, I have a question, this What to do with the flag?"

   "Banner? Is there any problem?" Isn't it just using an official position as a banner, so what's the problem? Fei Qian was a little hard to understand.

  Huang Cheng scratched his head, and said with a naive smile: "Others are easy to talk about, but this flag is too much, let's put them all together, I can't put them down, let's choose one, and I don't know which one to choose, so..."

   Fei Qian's complexion turned dark all of a sudden, and a mouthful of old blood almost didn't come out...

   Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh...
