An Xuan, a merchant who rests in peace, is a famous wealthy merchant on the Silk Road. With a huge caravan to travel all over the country, over the mountains and mountains to clear the road, to take care of all the heroes. Therefore, it has a good relationship with heroes from all walks of life. Wang Guo, Song Jian and others moved in advance, so that An Xuan often had contacts. Last time, An Xuan traveled from the Western Regions to Chang'an. coincided with the Xiliang Rebellion. He gave the name of the general of the United States, and was brought to the kingdom in person. During the chat, I heard that the famous scholar Yan Zhong was lying in bed, lacking skills to return to the sky, and his life hung by a thread. Then he asked the kingdom to allow him to lead the sorcerers of the Western Regions to try.

Sure enough, the medicine cured the disease.

An Xuan's name was known to the generals.

"Contemptible An Xuan, meet the general." Although An Xuan has a high nose and deep eyes, he has a different look. gestures, but they are no different from the Han people.

"Please, Han Moujie Wufu, don't dare to call a general." This is not a drop of water.

An Xuan got up and sat down.

"Why didn't you come here late at night?" Han Sui asked.

An Xuan replied with a smile, "When I arrived in Luoyang a few days ago, when I was selling Western domain properties in the gold market, I met a woman. Knowing that I could travel back and forth to Hexi, he entrusted me to carry a thing with the general to send his thoughts from afar. ”

After speaking, An Xuan took out a lacquered wooden box from his sleeve and presented it to Han Sui.

Han Sui took it with both hands, and was not in a hurry to open it, "Who entrusted it?" ”

"It's the general's son-in-law." An Xuan replied.

It was King Ji who personally came to the door to ask for marriage, married Yan Xing, and later moved to Luoyang's eldest daughter.

Han Sui hurriedly opened the wooden box. There were no letters in the box, only a sachet. The aroma of the sachet is pungent, which is the taste of dogwood.

"On the ninth day of September, Pei Zhuyi, eat canopy bait, drink chrysanthemum wine, and the clouds make people live longer."

On the day of the Double Ninth Festival on September 9, climbing the mountain and climbing the heights, wearing a bag with a dogwood on his arm, it is called "dogwood bag".

Everything is right, and so is the meaning. The problem is that it's only mid-May, and it's still a few months until September 9. At this time, it is too early to send 'dogwood sac'.

Han Sui was puzzled, and couldn't help asking, "Does the little girl have anything to say?" ”

Madame didn't speak." An Xuan replied with a smile.

"This ......" Han Sui's disappointment is obvious. The son-in-law, Yan Xing, is a close confidant of General Fu Han. Knowing that I was coerced, I had no choice but to be a thief. will be able to speak and explain on behalf of others. The general knows the inside story, and he will definitely open the net and surrender to me.

An Xuan should have brought a letter from the general here. Allow me to be a high-ranking official and secretly surrender. Why is there only one sachet?

"The thing has been delivered, An Xuan will leave." After speaking, An Xuan got up.

"Oh, walk slowly." Han Sui hurriedly got up to send him off.

"The general stays." An Xuan bowed out again.

Seeing An Xuan leave, Han Sui closed the door, took the sachet in his hand, and examined it carefully. To say how different it is from the general sachet. This sac is tied tightly at both ends. Untie a ribbon, and the dogwood fruit pours out. Then, the bag was empty. Each dogwood, carefully examined, there is no difference.

This is indeed a very ordinary dogwood sac.

His gaze shifted from the dogwood fruits scattered on the bookcase to the empty sachet hanging on the wooden box. Han Sui's heart moved, and he took the sachet with one hand. Looking inside and out, there is nothing unusual. Subconsciously untie the ribbon on the other end. The sachet has completely become a cloth tube that connects at both ends.

What is the meaning of this object?

Han Sui pondered under the lamp, but he couldn't understand it.

Those who haven't slept all night are not alone Han Sui.

The kingdom of the generals of the United States has been raised as its leader by the people. has not been in the limelight for a few days, and when he heard that the three-way army was pressing, he was worried as a whole. The so-called thief and king, the king of thistle has always eliminated the first evil and pardoned the people. How can the kingdom not know?

The back of the neck is cold day and night, and the kingdom knows that it is bitter.

"General Qiyu, the military advisor asks to see you." Tossing and turning, I overheard the guards outside the dormitory.

The kingdom sat up suddenly, "Come and see you in the hall." ”

"Whoa."

"Meet the General." Yan Zhong entered the hall and saluted.

"No courtesy, no courtesy." The kingdom hastily washed and cloned his clothes and rushed to meet him, "The military advisor came to see him late at night, what is the matter?" ”

"General Hui. It is for Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou, two generals. Yan Zhong replied.

"What's the matter with the two generals?" The kingdom was stunned.

Yan Zhong said in a low voice, "I have come to report carefully, the two generals Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou are preaching the Taiping doctrine in the army and absorbing believers. I don't know about this, did the general ever know? ”

Wang Guo nodded, "Don't hide it from the military division, Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou are the Yellow Turban Qu Marshals." ”

"I see." Yan Zhong thought about it for a while, and then he woke up, "The general wants to borrow the power of the two of them to tie the yellow scarf?" ”

"Yes, yes." The kingdom was about to speak, and then stopped. He made eye contact with Yan Zhong, but suddenly woke up. Regarded as a confidant, should not be concealed. This will be the stakes, and the inventory will be revealed, "This time the heavy money to tie up the thirty-six Qiang canals came from the hands of the two generals." ”

"I see." Yan Zhong asked again, "In this way, Beigong and General Li are the masterminds behind it?" ”

"Yes, yes." The kingdom nodded.

Yan Zhong asked again, "In that case, why don't the two of them set up their own doors and promote generals instead?" ”

The kingdom smiled proudly, "The military advisor doesn't know. The Qiang people believe in their own gods. He does not believe in the art of Huang Lao. Although the two of them paid a lot of money to tie up the 36 Qiang Canal, the Qiang people were unwilling to raise the banner of Taiping Road. So the two of them retreated and took me as the master. ”

Yan Zhong finally learned the inside story.

This rebellion was indeed the mastermind of Taiping Dao. The Qiang people see profit and abandon righteousness. Taking advantage of the chaos in Kanto, the crowd rebelled. Conquer the city, except to vent his dissatisfaction with the Han Court. It is not without the heart of separation and self-reliance.

The reason why the Qiang people have repeatedly rebelled. It is not unrelated to the policies of the imperial court.

Take the example of Xian Ling Qiang, who established the Xian Ling Dynasty.

In the early years of the former Han Dynasty, Xianlingqiang was mainly distributed in the Huangshui Basin. Yuan Shuo six years ago 121), the Battle of Hexi began. In order to prevent the harassment of the Xiongnu, Emperor Wu ordered the expulsion of Zhuqiang, which caused the Qiang people to resist fiercely. Xian Lingqiang and Feng Yang Qiang, prison sister Qiang combined 100,000 troops, they attacked Lingju, Angu, and surrounded Han, but they were all defeated by the Han army. So he moved his tribe to the upper reaches of Huangshui, around Qinghai Lake in the West Sea, and around Heguan County, Longxi County. When Emperor Xuan, the general Zhao Chongguo attacked Xianlingqiang again, forcing Xianlingqiang to continue to move westward to Xiyanchi and other places. At the end of the Xinmang period, the Central Plains was in turmoil, and Lingqiang returned to the Huangshui Valley and occupied Jincheng County.

In the early years of the Han Dynasty, Xian Lingqiang was defeated by the Fubo general Ma Yuan. The tribes were forcibly relocated to Longxi, Hanyang Tianshui), Youfufeng and other places, and the rest were moved to Saiwai.

In the first year of Yongchu 107), the first zero leader Dian Ling, led the Qiang and then rebelled, and established the first zero regime, and called himself the Son of Heaven in Beidi County, known as the Xian Ling Dynasty in history.

Although the dynasty is short, it is still a spark. Ignite the ambition of the Qiang people to build a country. The Xianlingqiang, which is scattered in the Hehuang River Basin, often has a heart of separation.

The 36 Qiang canals that rebelled this time were all "first zero species".

The reason why Taiping Dao can say that the 36 Qiang Qu troops rebelled is because they first zeroed Qiang, and they had the ambition of separating and establishing a country.

In Liangzhou, the reason why the Han people have decreased sharply is because of the sharp increase in the number of Qiang people. These are not counted in the "Zhuqiang" who are all registered and the people, and the number of them is probably not less than one million.

Because of this, Taiping Dao, which started with Huang Lao's technique, did not have many believers in Liangzhou. I had to spend a lot of money to tie up the first Lingqiang Canal, and then recommend the local powerful kingdom as the main one.

After thinking about it, Yan Zhong asked, "Dare to ask the general, who are the thirty-six Qiang Canals obeying, and who is the leader?" ”

"This ......" kingdom ran out of words for a while.

Yan Zhong then said, "The so-called 'there are no two days in the sky, no two kings in the earth, no two masters in the family, and no two lords'. He also said that 'one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers', and 'the heart of guarding against others is indispensable'. Generals need to plan ahead. ”

A word wakes up the dreamer.

The kingdom suddenly woke up to the words of the military advisor, and every word was fine. Remember it from the bottom of your heart! ”
