Chapter 700: Conflict with others
No matter who started this rumor, it is a fact that these shameless emerging feudal nobles are ready to use it to make money.
Feng Yong only looks at the winner in the end.
Just thinking that these guys dare to take the blame on the Prime Minister, it is really the profits that make people crazy.
Feng Yongzheng was sighing when Xu Xun mentioned another topic.
“Brother, do you remember that Liu Liang?”
“The son of Liu Yan, the general of chariots and cavalry?”
Since the great victory at Longyou, the court in Jincheng has awarded another group of people.
Among them, Liu Yan made a shady PY deal with Zhuge Laoyao, so he was honored to be promoted to the position of General of Chariots and Cavalry.
Then, he ranked first on the impeachment list of Li Yan.
When mentioning Liu Yan, Feng Yong remembered this impeachment list.
There is no news yet, and I don’t know if Old Demon Zhuge has temporarily suppressed it, or if he is preparing to hold back some big move.
“It is this person.”
Xu Xun nodded quickly when he heard Feng Yong's words.
"I remember, isn't he currently serving in the Longyou Governor's Mansion? Why would you mention him if nothing happens?"
Feng Yong frowned slightly and asked a little strangely.
It was precisely because Liu Yan was the vanguard against Li Yan that both Zhuge Yao and Zhao Yun hinted to Feng Yong and asked him to let Liu Liang go.
Feng Yong naturally had nothing to say.
In any case, there was not a life-and-death feud between the two of them, and he did not suffer any loss. On the contrary, the other party was driven to Nanzhong.
In the end, Liu Yan was brave and sold PY to Zhuge Lao Yao, which allowed Liu Liang to escape from Nanzhong with his life.
Feng Langjun is open-minded and will definitely not hold grudges!
Of course, if nothing happens, it would be best for Liu Liang not to appear in front of him again.
Feng Yong tied the bag he was holding tightly, threw it to Xu Xun, turned around and returned to the hall to sit down, and then asked: "What, are you in contact with him now?"
The Xinghan Hui, which is in the stage of rapid rise, is still very united internally.
Because they need to seize more resources—political resources and economic resources under the leadership of the leader.
Hence, second-generation figures like Liu Liang who had problems with the leader would naturally have been isolated by the Xinghan Hui in the past.
The current situation may be better, but even if he doesn't deliberately exclude him, no one will take the initiative to contact him.
Xu Xun put down the bag of dry food and then sat down and said to Feng Yong: "How can I have contact with him? It's just that this person came to see me when I passed through Jicheng."
Feng Yong said nothing and signaled Xu Xun to continue speaking.
Xu Xun said this with a bit of embarrassment on his face.
“Brother, he begged the younger brother, saying that he wanted the younger brother to bring a message to the elder brother…”
Feng Yong heard this and sneered: "What are you talking about?"
“He wanted to find a way.”
“What way?”
“I’m just jealous when I see that the brothers in our guild have found a way out! I heard that my brother is planning to divide the pastures in Longyou, and he is willing to go to the pastures below to educate the barbarians.”
Xu Xun said with a smile.
Divide the pastures and improve them. Naturally, the Qiang Protector Colonel will send people down to teach the Hu people how to raise livestock.
Let the Hu people carry out enclosure herding and allow them to settle down completely. This is the first step in the household registration of the Qi people.
At that time, the people sent to the lower levels will also be the grassroots officials who manage the Hu people.
They may appear to be low-level officials, but in fact they are rich in wealth.
Feng Yong usually lets his students serve as his deputies, and also has retired disabled soldiers from the Nanxiang Army as his deputies.
This is how Yuexun came. Compared with traditional scholars and scholars, they who came from the lower class were better able to integrate with the lower class and better understand the needs of the lower class.
From the masses, to the masses, this is the correct working method.
Hearing that Liu Liang actually wanted to compete with his students for jobs, Feng Yongyong could not help but ask: "What benefits did he promise you?"
“It’s true that I didn’t promise any benefits to my little brother.”
Hearing this, Feng Yong looked at Xu Xun strangely. When did you change your career and become a good person?
Seeing Feng Yong's confused eyes, Xu Xun lowered his voice: "I was in Hanzhong a few days ago, and my lord sent me a letter from Jincheng."
“Your Excellency said in your letter that the Chariot and Cavalry General is willing to work with Your Excellency to rebuild the Imperial Academy.”
Hearing this, Feng Yong couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
In the past two years, with the continuous increase in paper production, paper is no longer a rare thing in Shu.
In addition, the imperial court continued to revise the classics for several years.
The call to “rebuild Imperial College, store materials for the country, and raise the world’s scholars” also sounded from time to time.
Among them, the loudest voice was none other than Xu Xun’s lord Xu Ci.
In the time of the late emperor, he was already assigned to compile classics.
This time, the imperial court appointed famous scholars to revise the classics, and he was one of them.
More importantly, he ran to the gate of the palace and cried because he had suggested reconstruction several times.
It doesn’t matter whether he is sincere or premeditated, or even who is instructing him.
Anyway, if he can do this with all his heart, in the eyes of the people who don’t know the truth, he is a real Confucian scholar.
Many people who don’t know the truth are sighing: This person is really a learned person!
Even Adou also took advantage of it and gained a good reputation for accepting advice with an open mind.
So Xu Ci is now a leading figure calling for the reconstruction of Taixue—although it seems that the reconstruction of Taixue is still a relatively distant thing at present.
Whether it is the emperor or the prime minister, it is indeed quite reasonable to say that the treasury is short of money and needs to be used in the most critical places. There is not enough money and food to rebuild the Imperial Academy.
But in Feng Yong's view, no matter how tight the imperial court was in terms of money and food, Taixue would have to be rebuilt after Guanzhong was recovered at the latest.
Because at that time, the Han Dynasty will really face the aristocratic families in Guandong.
At that time, if the Han Dynasty does not have its own "five-year college entrance examination and three-year simulation" standards, even if the Han Dynasty is revived, it will only be a wedding dress for others.
Just like the Liangzhou wealthy family in the Eastern Han Dynasty, they helped Liu Xiu conquer the world, and finally took advantage of the Guandong family.
“This Liu Yan, among other things, is very speculative!”
Feng Yong was a little surprised when he heard Xu Xun's words, with a sneer on his face.
For Liu Yan, whether it was because of what he did in history or the grudges between his son and himself.
In any case, it is impossible for Feng Yong to have a good impression of him.
The rebuilding of Taixue is politically correct whenever it is mentioned.
As for when to do it, it depends on the timing.
It’s just that although Feng Yong was also very concerned about the reconstruction of Taixue, he never expressed it publicly.
Feng Tibi was just quietly building a school and hatching little Tibi.
A friend of a friend is not a friend of mine, so Liu Yan has no chance of lifting Liu Liang's blacklist through this.
Xu Xun saw Feng Yong's playful expression and seemed to know what he was thinking, but at the moment he turned his body sideways.
“Brother, Liu Yan also said that although the imperial court does not have the money and food to support the Imperial Academy, it can still educate the people in the local area first.”
"Zhu Ti of Nanzhong, wasn't it because of his effective education that the barbarians learned to obey the etiquette? Didn't they follow the rebellion?"
"Now that the Han Dynasty has newly restored Longyou, Liangzhou has always been a place of Qiang and Hu rebellion. The court can also let Liangzhou follow Zhu Ti's example and set up schools to educate the Hu people."
Um? Um!
When Feng Yong heard this, he immediately sat up straight and looked at Xu Xun: "Did he really say that?"
Xu Xun nodded: "He is willing to go to the imperial court."
This old man Liu seems to be addicted to PY trading?
“Brother, the most important thing is that he also said that Nanxiang Academy has done a great job in educating the barbarians. This is obvious to all.”
Before Xu Xun finished speaking, Feng Yong suddenly stood up.
Xu Xun said: "So he suggested that the Qiang school captain should use the method of Nanxiang School to promote Liangzhou and educate the Hu people."
Feng Yong suddenly widened his eyes.
This old man is really shameless!
Seeing his brother's eyes bulging like a dead fish, Xu Xun couldn't help but feel worried.
Although the date of rebuilding Taixue is relatively far away, it is possible to make some preparations in advance before this day comes.
For example, use Nanxiang's "Chinese" and "Mathematics" to educate the children of Qian Shou and the Qiang and Hu people in Liangzhou.
This proposal is very good!
Liu Yan, the veteran, is still very discerning, and the veteran comrade still has a lot of work experience!
Furthermore, Xiang Lang, a famous person, is now in Nanxiang Academy, and the palace has also sent people to study arithmetic there. Who said that Nanxiang Academy is a rural pheasant school?
Thinking of this, Feng Yong seemed to understand. Liu Yan probably saw the actions of Xiang Lang and the palace.
So he knew that there was no risk at all in bringing this up at this time.
Hey, this old guy is really good at seizing opportunities!
“Since the great chaos in the world, the study of Confucian classics has declined in the Han Dynasty and the classics have been scattered. Today, only Nanxiang and Yuexun have schools built and are under the rule of education.”
Xu Xun also chimed in and said, "If this can be accomplished, when the Imperial College is completed, our Xinghan Society will definitely have a place."
Feng Yong smiled slightly.
Xu Ci is a representative figure who called for the reconstruction of Taixue in the Han Dynasty, and he will definitely have an important say in the issue of Taixue in the future.
And the Nanxiang Xuetang Department was the first to implement enlightenment, and if it is officially recognized by the official.
Even if Taixue closes his eyes for the sake of appearance in the future, he will at least select a few students from these Nanxiang schools.
At that time, Nanxiang Xixuetang changed from a township partnership to a listed company and truly qualified for political investment.
What does it mean to master intellectual resources?
What does it mean to have the right to interpret knowledge?
This is it!
Xu Xun, as the second generation of a powerful man, saw political investment.
Feng Yong saw more.
He patted the shoulder of Xu Xun, who stood up, and said, "Please help me tell Liu Yan from Yuan De that if he can really facilitate this, let alone Liu Liang, he can take care of several pastures in Longyou."
"He just wants to control the barbarians in a county, and I will find a way to help him do it."
Xu Xun received Feng Yong's promise. He was overjoyed and loudly clasped his fists: "Promise!"
The Xu family has benefited a lot from this matter, why is he unhappy?
"Of course, if Liu Liang is determined to make great achievements, I can also help him think of ideas."
For example, the baldness department just needs a guide...
It depends on whether you are brave enough.
After all, the Baldness Department regards him as a relative and friend. As long as he asks them to take care of him in person, there will definitely be no problem.
Speaking of the Bald Tribe, Feng Yong suddenly remembered something: "Yuan De, you said that a Xiongnu tribe was driven to Longyou by the Xianbei people not long ago?"
Xu Xun nodded.
I don't understand why my brother mentioned this matter again?
Perhaps he heard that he spent the night in the other party's tent, so he wanted to have a taste of it?
Feng Yong touched his chin and asked, "After you go back, go there again and help me find out more."
“What is the situation of the Qiang, Xianbei, Xiongnu and other barbarians in the north today?”
"At the same time, let's go to Pingxiang and pay attention to the situation of the barbarians in the north."
The north of Anding County is where the Qiang and Hu people live together, and it is also where the five Xiongnu tribes that were dismembered by Cao Cao were located.
It used to be Shuofang County and Wuyuan County of the Han Dynasty. However, as the grassland tribes continued to move south, this place was gradually encroached and became a place for barbarians to herd horses.
In the end, Cao Cao simply divided it specifically for the Qiang, Hu and the remaining Xiongnu to live.
The reason why Feng Yong suddenly became concerned about this is because he clearly remembered: Meng Huo in the south and Ke Bineng in the north.
Meng Huo has been pacified, but Kebineng in the north seems to have begun to grow stronger at this time, threatening Cao Wei's north.
At the same time, he wanted to know even more, what is going on with the Xianbei Tuoba tribe today?
Xu Xun got Feng Yong's order. After leaving Shouyang, he did not go directly back to Jicheng along the Weishui River. He made a special trip to Pingxiang to convey the message.
At this time, Pingxiang was vigorously organizing people to open up wasteland for farming, and there was a lively scene everywhere.
With the grain delivered by Dongfeng Express, there is no need to worry about the future. Both Han people and Qiang Hu are working hard to cultivate under the guidance of the government.
Guan Ji, whose belly has begun to become obvious, listens to the advice of the medical worker and Feng Yong and insists on exercising every day and cannot stay in bed all day long.
So she would go to the outside of the city for inspections from time to time.
Of course, the point is not to inspect, but to show off your belly.
Guess what’s in my belly?
The descendant of the mountain **** will have a successor and will he know how to cut it?
So Xu Xun couldn't find Guan Ji in the city, so he ran outside the city again.
Standing on the high ground outside Pingxiang City, with her arms akimbo and belly stretched out, looking at Guan Ji who was in full swing of reclaiming the wasteland below, she was slightly startled when she heard the words from Xu Xun.
“Opening a school? Could it be that Cheng Alang has any big plans?”
Guan Ji knows the benefits of running a school.
Yuexun can be developed in an orderly manner, and at the same time, the barbarians can be transformed into farming families and managed by household registration.
There is no embarrassment of lack of manpower at all, and the students who graduated from the school are indispensable.
The Feng family is not a high-ranking family and has no background at all, let alone any relatives and children to help.
If it were anyone else, I'm afraid they would have to compromise with the local big family.
Or turn to the barbarian leaders for help and ask them to help pacify the place.
But Alang never had this worry. What he relied on were the students who came out of the school.
So those students can be regarded as Alang's most trusted disciples.
Compared to the powerful children of the Xinghan Society who were called Brother Alang, Guan Ji was more willing to trust these students who were called Master Alang.
It’s just that the supply of students at Nanxiang Academy is very tight now. Where can we find more people to serve as teachers?
And as Feng Yong’s pillow, Guan Ji felt that he was not only very concerned about this kind of education, but also very anxious.
"Brother said, you can put up a front first, at least get the name, and then take your time in the rest."
Xu Xun stood below and explained to Guan Ji, who was standing higher up.
Guan Ji nodded: "Okay, I understand."
On the other hand, Zhang Xingyi, who was standing next to Guan Ji, was more concerned about Feng Yongrang's attention to the Hu people in the north.
"We are separated by Xiaoguan and Anding County. What do the Hu people in the north have to do with us? Why do you care so much?"
“This is beyond someone’s knowledge.”
Xu Xun answered honestly.
Guan Ji could guess a little bit. She turned her head and glanced at Zhang Xingyi meaningfully, but did not explain.
Zhang Xingyi understood the meaning in her eyes, pouted, and held back from asking.
Guan Ji didn't care either. She suddenly pointed downward: "That is Xu Erniang, right?"
The eight-niu plow turned up the still cold soil. Xu Erniang walked on the edge of the field, looking down at it seriously, and even stretched out her hand to pick up a clod of soil.
Then he said to the people following him: "This land is not suitable for growing food directly. At least one season of beans must be planted first, and alfalfa can also be grown."
“But my suggestion is to plant alfalfa for two years first. The fertility of this land is not very strong. Even if you plant grain in the future, you have to plant it year after year.”
Hearing what she said, the student responsible for planning behind her quickly took a piece of paper and pen to write down her evaluation of the newly opened fields.
At this time, I only heard someone calling in the distance.
Zhang Xingyi saw the second wife of the Xu family walking towards this side with her maid, and seemed to think of something. She turned around and looked around, and saw someone driving poultry on the other side.
She smiled and said: "Speaking of the second mother of the Xu family, I remember one thing."
“What’s the matter?”
Guan Ji asked with great interest.
Zhang Xingyi stepped forward to hold her arm and said quietly: "Then Li Tong seems to be interested in the second mother of the Xu family."
At this point, she glanced at Xu Xun again, and then continued: "Sister, do you think they are suitable?"
Guan Ji didn't understand why she suddenly mentioned it at first. When she saw Xu Xun standing below with his hands lowered and solemnly bowed for the second time, Guan Ji's heart finally brightened.
At that moment, he nodded with understanding and said: "When you say this, I think it's really appropriate."
Hmm, uh, why did the Xu family send the second mother of the Xu family to Nanxiang in the first place?
Thinking of this, Guan Ji couldn't help but tap Zhang Xingyi's forehead: "Ghost, ghost, ghost!"
Zhang Xingyi smiled and hugged Guan Ji's arm tightly.
