After a secret competition between you and me, Yuan Feng got a satisfactory reply, which allowed He Jin to leave, and he discussed it carefully with the rest of the Yuan family.

At this time, in addition to Yuan Feng in front of the hall, there were only his brother Yuan Kui, as well as Yuan Feng's sons Yuan Ji and Yuan Shu, and his brother Yuan Ping and Yuan Kui's sons.

Because of Yuan Yu, the Yuan family was very repulsive to Yuan Shao's untimely political position, because even if Yuan Feng liked him again, he did not let him participate in this matter, and it was precisely because of Yuan Yu's sudden death in history that the Yuan family completely changed its position and put more resources on Yuan Shao.

Yuan Ji stood just after looking at it, long and handsome, gentle and elegant. He took the lead and said: "He Suigao's words are ridiculous, how can others believe that he is a 'locust' out of the abyss?" ”

Before the words fell, Yuan Shu said: "Brother, why bother with what he says, as long as my Yuan clan contributes, everyone in the court will say this, and then there is Yuan Changzhi as a supplement, as long as Your Majesty believes it, the matter of establishing a prince will be successful." ”

"Yes, yes, yes."

"Zenya."

The other Yuan family members all agreed with Yuan Shu's words, in their opinion, as long as they helped He Jin to grab the position of the crown prince, when the Yuan family had the skill of the dragon, they could protect a generation of wealth, so why care about anything else? In this case, no matter how he gets the position, as long as it is beneficial to the Yuan family.

Yuan Feng, as the head of the family, made a plan on how to help the He family, so he let everyone leave, while he himself sat in the hall and picked up a copy of "Meng's Yi", which was his family scripture, and he would always read it repeatedly when he was alone.

The Runan Yuan clan is not only a great family in the sea, but also a great Confucian scholar in the world. Yuan An's grandfather, Yuan Liang, had learned the Book of Changes from the scholar Meng Xi in the late Western Han Dynasty, and since then the Book of Changes has become Yuan's family school, and Yuan's children have to recite the Book of Changes.

Yuan An studied "Meng Shi Yi" when he was young; Yuan Jing "Xi "Meng Shi Yi", composed "Difficult to Remember" 300,000 words"; Yuan Jingzi Yuan Peng, less heirloom; Yuan Pengdi Yuan Tang, "less family heirlooms, Confucianism calls it a festival"; Yuan Chang, "Professor of the Book of Changes".

Due to the Yuan family's family heirlooms, there are many high-ranking officials, becoming both wealthy and Confucian, and many people come to the door to learn the Book of Changes from the Yuan family and become bibliographic disciples.

Among these people, there are very few Liao Liao who are really educated, and most of them see the general trend of the Yuan clan, and buy a name through bribery or lobbying by relevant personnel, so as to obtain the opportunity to be sheltered and exempted from military service or recommended to be an official, and they have become the "protégés" and "righteous causes" of the Yuan family, which can be said to be "the world is benevolent, and the world is benefited by it".

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the government and even the state pastor, the assassin history, and the county guard, their staff rafters were mostly selected by themselves to play a role in recruitment, and once the people who were recruited were recruited, they became the staff rafters of the government or the county, and gradually formed a personal relationship with his chief, and the staff rafters were often private ministers to their chiefs.

The filial piety and Xiucai who were sponsored by the county, even if they later served as officials in the imperial court, but they were all called "old officials" to the ministers of the county and the state sponsored in the past. Yuan's county guard, many people, the rafters of the expedition, the staff, the sponsor of filial piety, Xiucai countless, many court and state officials are the protégés or subordinates of the Yuan family, so the power is particularly large, so people also call Runan Yuan's "protégé and former officials all over the world".

However, Cheng also "Meng's Yi", defeat also "Meng's Yi", Yuan's on the other hand, it can also be said that he started because of "Meng's Yi", and also died because of "Meng's Yi".

Gain's "Meng's Yi" is mixed with many mystic ideas, especially when it is combined with the popular diagrams of the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, using abnormal celestial phenomena to predict good luck and evil, and has become the theoretical originator of many superstitious trends in later generations.

The Yuan family has been addicted to this book for generations, Yuan Shao's great-grandfather Yuan Jing has written more than 300,000 words of Yi Xue's monograph "Difficult to Remember", Yuan Shao's cousin Yuan Manlai died of illness although he was only 15 years old, and was also praised by Cai Yong as "Ming Xi "Yi" learning, from the teachings like a stream", so the thoughts of the members of the Yuan family can not be poisoned by it, and later Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu brothers because of superstition and mistakes again and again, and finally led to the rebellion of relatives is not without this reason.

Before the day of the morning meeting arrived, a decree from Liu Hong came to the Marquis Mansion.

The imperial court took the disaster and worshiped Fuquan as a councilor.

Because of the previous offer of plague prevention and control strategies, and now the strategy of exterminating locusts and eating locusts, so that the locust plague has been extinguished a little, and the people of the seven states have benefited from this. In addition, Liu Hong's intention to promote Fu's relatives, and his already being a boy boy, the step that ordinary scholars eagerly hoped for to raise filial piety was a burden to him, and he was directly recruited into the court.

Hearing this, Fu Quan couldn't smile bitterly, he didn't think that he was the youngest among Taixue's friends, only the same age as Zang Hong, but he was one step ahead of others.

Now that he has become an official, he can't say anything if he doesn't hold a banquet to celebrate, otherwise he won't fall out with his fellow villagers if he is too learned. So on the second day, Fuquan invited all friends to a banquet in the Hou Mansion.

In the courtyard of the Hou Mansion, drink freely and talk about the world, because the courtyard is spacious and the breeze blows, not only feel cool, but also take away the slightly drunk wine. The sound of the piano in the courtyard is rippling, and there are more maiko raised by the Hou Mansion to cheer everyone up, but it is not lively.

"Liuchuan's fried locusts are really wonderful, and the rest of the food is really delicious." The name of the person who spoke was Zhang Zhao, the word Zibu, was a native of Pengcheng, Xuzhou, at the beginning of the year to study in Taixue, just came to Taixue not long after, and was acquainted with Fuquan who had "heard his name for a long time", if it was not for his fellow villagers, he might have been expelled from him at that time, after all, Fuquan was too rude at that time.

Nowadays, scholars socialize 'friendship', unless both people admire each other, otherwise they must be introduced by others, if they go up casually and talk to others, it is extremely rude.

"Zibu is serious, this little skill." Fu Quan said lightly.

As soon as the words fell, Zang Hong's big voice said directly: "What is a small skill? Now in Luoyang City, locusts can be said to be extinct, and those who want to eat need to be asked for gold? If this is a small skill, it is too expensive. ”

After saying a word, Fu Quan didn't know what to say, and was choked by Zang Hong, an upright person, who had nothing to say, and everyone laughed when they saw this.

Zang Hong is right, since Liu Hong advocated eating locusts, Luoyang has had a trend of "locusts are extinct, and they are as precious as gold" overnight.

Because of the good on the top, the effect on the bottom, the powerful families of Luoyang have sent people to buy and make fried locusts, to follow the pace of the emperor, the demand is suddenly born, the price will inevitably rise, and the wisdom of the ancients is infinite, and then soon other locust eating methods were born, and the locusts are becoming fewer and fewer, which is unexpected.

However, because of this, Fu Quan was relieved, since the upper echelons of the Han Dynasty society could accept the consumption of locusts, there was no need to attract criticism, it seemed that it was really a superfluous move to invite Hua Tuo to come.
