Chapter 758 Yuan Zheng
Hearing that the master asked him to go to Longyou in person, Zhang's expression changed.
Zhang Hua couldn't bear it and reminded him: "Brother, in the battle of Jincheng, we met Feng Yong face to face."
“What are you afraid of?”
Zhang Gong scolded, "You are the defeated generals, not the victorious generals."
“If the Han Dynasty didn’t even have this kind of magnanimity, it would not be worthy of today’s military victory.”
Zhang Gong's originally unfocused eyes finally regained focus. He looked at his brothers and son, and the corners of his mouth moved, seeming to sneer or sneer.
"What's more, you are not the governor or chief historian of Jincheng now, but ordinary people who have abandoned their official positions and are living at home."
According to the laws of Wei State, those who lose their city and land will be severely punished.
However, Xu Miao's situation is not good now, so he naturally does not dare to push too hard.
Otherwise, it is not impossible for the local officials in Liangzhou to stage a show to welcome the king.
So after the Battle of Jincheng, although the uncle and nephew of the Zhang family were definitely unable to serve as officials, they finally did not receive any substantial punishment.
“The Han Dynasty is willing to accept even barbarians, but does it not allow traveling scholars to enter?”
"Now the caravan exchanges between the two countries have not been cut off. If it doesn't work, you can go to Longyou in the name of a caravan. What does it matter?"
Hearing what his master said, Zhang understood and quickly agreed.
“I don’t have a few days left to live.”
Zhang Gong sighed, "The Zhang family's roots are in Liangzhou, not in Guandong. You must understand this."
“Whether we are Wei people or Han people, no matter who the emperor is in the east, we are all wearing Chinese attire, and we will not become barbarians.”
"But the Hu people are different. They are not of my race, so their mentality must be different. In more than a hundred years ago, the Yi and Di invaded Liangzhou several times, and how many Han children were reduced to livestock?"
At this point, he closed his eyes, with a slightly angry look on his face.
"Those people in Guandong don't care about Liangzhou. How they fight now is their business, and we don't need to care too much."
"What we need to care about is how to protect the land of Xizhou and the foundation of the Zhang family, and prevent barbarians from causing trouble in Liangzhou."
The Qiang and Hu Rebellion in Liangzhou lasted for more than a hundred years, and the actions of those in the Guandong court had completely disappointed the people of Liangzhou.
Although Cao Wei pacified Liangzhou and put down several major and minor rebellions, he still failed to win the complete trust of the people of Liangzhou.
The political affairs of the Later Han Dynasty were mostly decided by the people of Guandong. The political affairs of Cao Wei... were also the same!
“Otherwise, if Liangzhou becomes a land of barbarians and barbarians, our descendants of the Zhang family will also be transformed into pigtails. Who will worship the gods of the ancestors of the Zhang family?”
Get off the left, Yidi also.
Sacrifice is one of the biggest events for a family.
Ghosts and gods who are not of their own kind should not be worshiped.
"So for us, whoever can keep the Chinese clothes in Liangzhou will be the emperor."
Zhang Gong opened his eyes again, with sharp eyes, "The Later Han Dynasty ignored Liangzhou, but Emperor Wu was able to pacify Liangzhou, then Cao Wei replaced the Han Dynasty, which is a good thing for us."
“If Ji Han can make the barbarians return to their homes and stop causing trouble in Liangzhou, it’s okay for our Zhang family to support Ji Han.”
Zhang Hua and Zhang were shocked when they heard this.
But it was just a shock, but he didn’t say anything else.
In the seventh year of Jianxing, life for all parties in Liangzhou was not very easy.
However, the harder it is to live in Liangzhou, the better it is for Feng Yong.
Yuanzheng, the eighth year of Jianxing, came quietly soon.
The residence of the Colonel Protecting Qiang in Pingxiang was filled with joy. Everyone had to take a bath and then offer sacrifices to the gods.
After the sacrifice to the gods is completed, everyone in the Feng family, regardless of their family status, big or small, will be listed in front of their ancestors to tell their ancestors.
The Feng family’s ancestral hall is far away in Jincheng, so we can’t go back to offer sacrifices, so we can only offer blessings from a distance.
However, this year's ancestor worship cannot be careless, because there is a new member, which is a big event for the Feng Mansion with a small number of people, so it must be solemn.
The lady of the Feng family who had made the first contribution stood side by side with Feng Yong, followed by Amei and Li Mu, each holding a child, and bowed to the south with a solemn expression.
with three types of animals, pigs, sheep, and cows, were placed on the special large table. They were grand sacrifices that ordinary people could not afford.
Now the Feng family has become the Marquis Mansion, plus Feng Jun and the Marquis Mansion, there are not many other things, but there are many livestock.
Pork raising in the Han Dynasty has begun to flourish. Pork is no longer as precious as before, and Feng Junhou is indispensable.
In addition to the pastures, as long as Feng Junhou opened his mouth, not to mention cattle and sheep sacrifices, horses, mules, and even camels were all rushed to be delivered.
The ancestors of the Feng family are considered very lucky.
Zhang Xingyi poked his head out of the room, secretly scratched the door frame, stretched his neck and looked this way.
However, when I saw the large incense burners erected on both sides of the desk, the green smoke was rising, and the smoke was fragrant, which made people feel calm.
However, what is different from others is that there is a special incense burner placed on the table, with three thick incense sticks inserted in the incense burner.
Incense sticks are not difficult to make. After all, the ancients could even make fire sticks.
However, this is the first time that incense sticks have appeared publicly in front of the world in the form of ancestor worship.
Hearing that this was the rule in Alang’s sect, Guan Ji didn’t say anything.
Besides, what communicates between gods and ancestors is the curling smoke.
This incense stick can emit green smoke, and the scent is light and elegant. It is actually a fine item.
After praying, burn the prayers to the ancestors, and then sprinkle the wine on the ashes.
Feng Junhou rolled up his sleeves and told his wives and concubines, "Go to the house and watch me set off firecrackers for you."
At the same time, I did not forget to give a special instruction, "Remember to cover the children's ears so as not to be frightened."
Amei and Li Mu turned around obediently, but Guan Ji stretched her neck and looked at the red paper cylinder placed on the table, her eyes full of excitement.
“Alang, I heard that this thing is more lively than fireworks?”
Hearing her words, Feng Junhou knew what she wanted to do.
"This thing is more dangerous than fireworks. You go back first and let me come."
“I am not afraid. Since there is danger, I will be here to protect Alang.”
Guan Ji grabbed Feng Yong's clothes tightly.
Mrs. Feng’s wife spoke firmly, and it seemed that she could not persuade her to go back.
Feng Junhou had no choice but to give in, "Just stand aside and watch, don't touch."
“Okay, Alang, hurry up.”
Guan Ji urged.
“Don’t worry, wait until I light another incense.”
If you don’t use incense to play with firecrackers, then most of the fun will be lost. This is a memory from childhood and cannot be thrown away.
The bright red incense head lit the fuse, and only a chirping sound was heard. When he saw green smoke coming out of the fuse, Feng Yong turned around, hugged Guan Ji, and pulled her back.
“Run!”
Unexpectedly, my mother-in-law is as still as a rock.
Guan Ji stood there fixedly, staring at the firecrackers with her eyes wide open, as if she wanted to see what happened.
Depend on!
This tiger bitch!
Feng Yong complained in his heart.
Then there was a loud "bang" behind him.
The eldest lady of the Feng family, who had been motionless just now, felt her whole body tense up due to her warrior instinct at the moment the fire broke out.
She subconsciously threw Feng Yong behind her, and at the same time, she also took a defensive posture to block him in front.
Feng Junhou said "Ouch" and was thrown to the ground.
