Chapter 29: Faith
Outside Song Shou City, the Ning family settlement, Xiyang Wang Yuwenwen is visiting the Ning clan study, today he presented books to the family study, looking at the age and appearance of the Ning family children who are dressed in the Central Plains, full of emotion. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although Mr. Teaching has a strong accent when he speaks, he can teach and explain some common enlightenment books in the Central Plains.
Looking at the teachers who had experienced the vicissitudes of life, he asked Ning Mengli on the side: "Ning Envoy, where did these teaching gentlemen come from?" ”
"King Hui, these gentlemen are also from the Ning clan."
"Oh? What about their learning..."
"The king, the ancestral home of the Ning family is Qingzhou, and then in order to avoid the war, he moved his clan south..."
Ning Mengli introduced the past of his family, Anzhou Ning, like the Chen family of Luzhou and the Gaoliang Feng family, their ancestors lived in the Central Plains, and later had to go south to escape the war.
However, it is "late" for them to go south, and there is no place for them in the rich land of Sanwu, of course, it is not impossible to be someone else's tenant farmer and villager, but no one is born cheap and willing to send people under the fence, so they can only continue to go south.
South of Sanwu is Fengzhou, there are mountains everywhere, the land that can be cultivated is pitiful, it can be said that it is eight mountains, one water and one field, the original land has already had the owner, and it is impossible to gain a foothold in eagerness, so it can only go further south, that is, the ridge table.
After countless years, some southbound families disappeared, and some survived, and the Ning family took root in the Anzhou area in the southwest region of Lingbiao.
After many generations, the living habits of the Ning clan gradually converged with the local slang people, and the accent of the speech gradually mixed with the tone of the local dialect, but even so, the Ning clan people have not forgotten their roots, so the clan has been teaching their children classics.
As for the people, Confucius said Meng, the Four Books and the Five Classics, has been teaching the Ning clan in this place, which has lasted for hundreds of years, of course, the Ning family will also go to Guangzhou to hire a well-educated person who lives in Panyu to teach in Song Shou's clan.
"Ning envoy Jun, Huangzhou Prefecture Xiyang bookstore gathered, and there are famous scholars to start teaching, if he is calm in the north and south roads, you can send the children of the clan to Xiyang to have a look, and after the completion of the study, go back to Anzhou to teach, it is also convenient to educate the people."
"The books published by Huangzhou Bookstore are all one by one, and you will get used to it if you read more... If you need it in the future, you can tell the caravan that you want any books, Huangzhou has them, but there should be a bookstore in Panyu in the future that specializes in Huangzhou books, and when you go to Panyu to buy them, you can save a lot of trouble. ”
Yu Wenwen is almost instinctively the best, endorsing Huangzhou books, not only here, in Gaozhou, in Luzhou, but also in the states and counties that have come all the way, he will give away the books published in Huangzhou.
Most of the states and counties in Lingbiao do not have official schools, and even if there are schools, they are all ethnic studies, and the big families who can set up ethnic studies are basically somewhere in the Central Plains of their ancestral hometowns, and they went south to avoid the war, and settled in Lingbiao for various reasons, and have since taken root and flourished.
This is also the family that Yuwenwen hopes to fight for, because these families have an innate affinity for the Central Plains culturally, and they are easier to deal with than the newly civilized slang clans.
The clan is not very learned, Yuwenwen turned around two or three times and then turned out, and on the way back to the accommodation, he asked Wang Jun what he thought.
"Wang, I have observed below, the children of the Ning family in the clan study, the clothes they wear are no different from the Central Plains, but the old and new are different, it seems that they are not temporarily cut out and put on to deal with things..."Wang Fei said while thinking.
"Those teachers in the clan studies, when it comes to the Four Books and the Five Classics, they can say some ugly things, and it doesn't seem that they are making up the numbers temporarily."
"Ning's self-proclaimed ancestral home in Qingzhou, and found that his words were indeed mixed with Qingzhou accents, and in my opinion, Ning's ancestral home was indeed Qingzhou, and its ethnography seems to have been there for a long time."
Hearing this, Yuwen Wen asked rhetorically: "Jingwen has been to Qingzhou?" ”
Jingwen is Wang Yan's words, he heard Yuwen Wen's words, and smiled slightly: "In the past, the imperial court was flat, and many Qingzhou people lived in Chang'an, and they heard more accents in that area, and they could probably distinguish one or two. ”
Then you use a Qingzhou accent to say, 'Poor can't be poor Shandong, Hatsune slapped Zhang Genshuo to death'!
Yuwen Wen was full of slander, of course, this kind of thing could not be said, but he had now determined that the Ning family should indeed be from Qingzhou, and Wang Fei's mind was meticulous and could find clues to a matter from the subtleties.
If this kind of person is a strategist, he doesn't dare to say that he is like a god, but he can be an excellent brain-burning substitute for the lord of the house.
Yu Wenwen decided to appoint Wang Ting, just like Liu Wenjing, and let him think about it all day long, doubt this and that instead of himself, accept all kinds of "negative energy", and open up countless strange brain holes.
When the time comes, it's not me who uses your brain too much to cause hair loss and baldness!
Yu Wenwen was thinking about how to use Wang Fei "excessively", Wang Fei was also thinking about things, he ran around during this time, knocked on the side through various means, and probably found out the strength outline of Anzhou Ning's family, and wrote a summary and submitted it to Yu Wenwen.
It is said that such a border wealthy family with the ability to stand on its own should also know to be wary of it from Yu Wenwen's eyes, but this one seems to be very confident, thinking that the Ning family is not pretending to be obedient, and Wang Fei is a little strange where the other party's confidence comes from.
"Jingwen, have you been to the state office, have you noticed anything?"
Faced with Yu Wenwen's question, Wang Jun quickly replied: "My lord, I'm afraid that the drums outside the state government have not been used for a long time. ”
"Yes, the drum used to sound grievances has not been used for a long time, what does this mean?" Yu Wenwen smiled and didn't continue, just looked at the scenery in the distance, as if thinking about something.
Anzhou is the territory of the Ning family, to put it bluntly, Ning Mengli, who has a hereditary assassin history, is the emperor of the soil in Anzhou, life and death, you can do whatever you want, and complain? Who is impatient to live and dare to speak out?
There is a good saying: Who in the hall dares to sue this official?
Yu Wenwen didn't know much about the Ning clan at this time in history, but he knew one thing, and he could see how arrogant the Ning clan was from the side.
It was the Tang Dynasty in the original history, Gaozong Li Zhilong controlled Bintian, and the crown prince Li Xian succeeded to the throne, and promoted his father-in-law Wei Xuanzhen from a small official in Shu to the state assassin history, and it didn't take long to be promoted to the servant.
In the service, in the Sui and Tang dynasties, it was actually equivalent to the prime minister, and this move was strongly opposed by the auxiliary minister, Li Xian directly said ruthlessly: "I can give the world to Wei Xuanzhen, not to mention the mere servant!" ”
This sentence shocked many people, and then the "Dragon Mother", that is, the Queen Mother Wu Zetian, also expressed shock: What did you just say? The mourners didn't hear clearly, you say it again!
Before Li Xian's throne was hot, he was deposed by the "Dragon Mother" and exiled to Fangling, while Wei Xuanzhen's family was exiled to Qinzhou.
Qinzhou should be Anzhou at the time of the fall of the Chen State, Wei Xuanzhen died of illness soon after arriving in Qinzhou, and Ning Chengji, the head of the Ning family, took a fancy to Wei Xuanzhen's two daughters and wanted to have one with his younger brother.
Wei Xuanzhen's widow Cui Shi did not agree, and then Ning Chengji was killed along with her four sons, and her two daughters escaped with their lives and fled back to the Central Plains after many hardships.
A few years later, Li Xian resurrected and ascended the throne again, did not forget the tragic experience of the old father-in-law's family, and sent troops to sweep the Ning family in Qinzhou.
From this incident, it can be seen how arrogant and domineering the Ning family is in their own territory, although Wei Xuanzhen's family was exiled, they are relatives of the emperor, but in Ning's territory, they can kill if they want to, not to mention ordinary people.
This is the inevitable manifestation of the wealthy family that has been entrenched in one place for a long time, and gradually embarks on the road of a country within a country over time.
Yuwen Wen knew what happened in this "history", and from this incident we could see the virtue of the Ning clan in the future, but he also got two pieces of information from this: the Ning clan in Anzhou (Qinzhou) continued until the Wu Zetian period, which shows that the Ning clan had not succeeded in separating itself from each other before.
On the other hand, the Ning clan, who controlled the boiling salt and pearl diving industries and engaged in sea trade, could not become a climate even if they were rich, and the Tang army easily eradicated them.
What's wrong with Ning's?
Constraints, between the three wealthy families of Lingbiao, there is both cooperation and competition, the so-called three-legged stand is mutually restrictive, and no matter what happens in the future, as long as he balances the tripartite relationship between Feng Xian's, Chen's, and Ning's now, then Lingbiao will not be able to successfully divide in the near future.
Therefore, Yuwenwen is confident that he will wait until the Central Plains decides the winner and the dust settles, and then he will free up his hands to train these wealthy families in Lingbiao.
As soon as he returned to his accommodation, Ning Mengli rushed over with someone and brought a piece of news: Li Fozi, the assassin of Jiaozhou, refused to go to Song Shou to see Yu Wenwen in person on the grounds that he was seriously ill and could not travel far away.
Hearing the news, Yu Wenwen asked, "He, is he really sick?" ”
The man who came with Ning Mengli was the messenger who had previously gone to Jiaozhou Prefecture to govern the dragon and hand over Yuwenwen's handwritten letter to Li Fozi, the assassin of Jiaozhou, and he explained to Yuwenwen:
"The king, the lowly position is in the dragon editor, and I did see Li Yuanjun bedridden, as for whether he is really sick, the lowly position is not a doctor, there is no way to know."
"Good, good."
Yu Wenwen laughed, smiling brightly.
Li Fozi! Where did you get the confidence to dare to divide under my nose!
