Chapter 160: Datong World
They were pointing at the things in the village, and the people in the village were pointing at them. probably thinks that with the Wuhuan people, they are just some rogue bandits.
The Wuhuan people had a very bad reputation in the eyes of the Yanzhao Han people, not only killing innocents indiscriminately, but also converging with local anti-thieves several times. Gongsun Zhan won the hearts of the people by killing the Wuhuan people, otherwise with his crime of killing Liu Yu of the clan, how could he continue to stay in the position of the assassin of Youzhou.
They were chatting when the middle-aged man with the square face came to the back.
Yuan Xi turned his head, looked at this unsmiling person, and asked, "I don't know what Mr. is called?" β
The man said: "A certain surname is Tian, the name is domain, and the word Zitai." β
Yuan Xi thought about it and felt that he had heard of this name, but there were more characters in the Three Kingdoms, and he couldn't remember what kind of character Tian Chou was, and he seemed to be not famous in his impression.
Tian Chou said: "I made a pot of tea, do you want to drink it together?" β
After that, without waiting for Yuan Xi to answer, he turned around and left.
What a weirdo.
Yuan Xi and Zhao Yun hurriedly got up and followed him, for fear of getting lost. The three of them walked through several fields to the clearing in front of the two huts. I saw some firewood piled up on it, and a pot was hung, and the water in it was boiling and steaming.
Tian Chou took off the hot pot, poured it in each of the three pottery bowls, and sat down around the fire.
Yuan Xi asked, "The tea is available, but what about this tea?" β
Tian Chou said: "How can there be tea in the mountains, let's just use hot water to make tea." His voice was slightly hoarse, high-pitched, and loud enough to go straight to his head.
Yuan Xi said with a smile: "Mr. Hao Yaxing, although there is no tea, but with the surrounding mountains and grass scenery as tea, this pot of tea is just wild and interesting." He took the bowl, blew it, and took a sip and exhaled a hot breath.
Tian Chou finally showed a smile and said, "Okay! It can be regarded as agreeing with Yuan Xi's statement.
In fact, Yuan Xi just went from the modern city to the ancient mountains, and he had a special view of these rough landscapes. But for people in this era, they may not be able to see any wild interest. However, Tian Chou appreciated his statement very much, and couldn't help but applaud.
"I don't know what year Mr. Tian entered the valley? It's a secluded place, but it's a great retreat. I see that the farmhouses here are evenly distributed, and the layout is quite grand, which is generous. β
Tian Chou sighed: "You have to think about future generations, there are not many people now." But maybe there will be more people in the future. Land is scarce here, so nature has to be used properly. In fact, I have called you here today to learn more about the situation outside. Although isolated from the world and pure in heart, he is always curious about what is going on outside. Come to think of it, it's been three years since I first came in. β
Three years? Three years ago, the land of Youzhou should have been Gongsun Zhan in power, this person was talented, and he should have met Gongsun Zhan with talent, so he became a hermit. Yuan Xi speculated, and said, "Outside? Gongsun Chan is dead. β
Tian Chou was taken aback and said, "Is it defeated under Yuan Shao?" β
Yuan Xi said: "Exactly, the two sides fought at Jieqiao, and finally Yuan Shao broke Gongsun Zhan's cavalry, killed Yijing, and besieged it for five months, and finally Gongsun Zhan burned himself to death. β
Tian Chou just showed a look of surprise, but it was just surprise, he immediately calmed down, took a sip of water, and said: "It's a pity, although Gongsun Chan is brave and strategic, but he has been crisscrossing the north for several years, and once he gains and loses, he will be full of ink, which is also a pity." β
He glanced at Yuan Xi and asked, "What do you call Your Excellency?" β
Yuan Xi said: "Under Yuan Xi, it is the newly appointed Youzhou Assassin History. β
Tian Chou was still drinking water, and when he heard this, he raised his head and glanced at Yuan Xi, and said with a smile in his eyes: "Didn't you fool me?" Will Lord Thorn come to my little mountain village? β
Yuan Xi said: "It's not a secret, after I took office, I planned to go all over Youzhou and investigate the people's situation, so I strayed here." β
Tian Chou looked at him twice and said, "The sister-in-law of the Yuan family? If you guess correctly, it should be the second son of Jizhou Mu. β
Yuan Xi gave a thumbs up and said, "Mr. guessed right." β
Tian Chou said: "What's so difficult about this? Yuan Gong has a total of three sons, the eldest son is in his thirties, and the youngest son, although he is about the same age, is said to be a famous beautiful man......"
At this point, the two fell silent at the same time. Yuan Xixin said: "It turned out that I was seen through because I was too ugly to ......" and Tian Chou probably felt a little embarrassed to expose his shortcomings in person, so he smiled and passed it.
After a while, Tian Chou asked, "Since he is the second son of the Yuan Mansion, he is also the chief official of Youzhou." How did you get mixed up with the Wuhuan people? β
It is really a bit unbelievable that a Youzhou assassin, a son of the Yuan family, is openly with a foreign clan, so Tian Chou didn't fully believe him, and continued to look at him with scrutinizing eyes.
Yuan Xi said: "Partner...... The Wuhuan people are brave and good at fighting, we Han people are good at production, everyone cooperates, they fight for me, I provide them with food, mutual benefit and reciprocity. β
"Ridiculous!" Tian Chou listened to his words, raised his voice and said, "Hu is cruel in nature, can you trust them?" When the Han people picked up their hoes and put down their swords, didn't they entrust their lives to foreigners? Wuhuan people have a repetitive temperament, when you are a friend today, you will fight back tomorrow, can you withstand it? β
Yuan Xi wiped the saliva on his face and said, "Mr. is too worried, how many Wuhuan talents are there, how many Han people are there?" If he wants to turn against me, will he not shake a tree like a grasshopper? The Wuhuan people are just a disease of scabies, and the Huns are a big problem, and when the Wuhuan people are obedient to me, they will use the Wuhuan people to deal with the Huns. β
Tian Chou said: "It's really naΓ―ve, how many people did Wuhuan kill in Youzhou?" In the upper valley of Yuyang, how many clans were torn apart by them, and finally moved south. You're playing with a tiger. β
Yuan Xi said: "Maybe, but you have to give it a try." To tell the truth, many Wuhuan people were killed by the Han people, and many tribes had no bones left under Gongsun Zhan, and the rest also moved to the east of White Wolf Mountain. When is the time for retribution, instead of killing each other, it is better to cooperate and reciprocate. When I win over a group and divide a group, the rest will not be a concern. β
He saw that Tian Chou's favorability couldn't help but decline, and it had reached 30, so he said: "Mr. Tian doesn't have to jump to conclusions right away, there are many things, and what he thinks and does may not be the same." Just like here in Tianjia Village, although everyone is self-sufficient and does not have to pay taxes, life may not be as good as outside. β
Tian Chou raised his eyebrows and said, "You kid, don't care if it's Youzhou Thorn History or Don't drive, this is my territory, and you dare to comment on me?" β
Yuan Xi said: "Mr. is less angry, just to discuss." It can be seen that Mr. is still quite affectionate, following the well field system of Confucius and Mencius, so that 'the cultivator has his field, and the dweller has his house'. Every family here has a field, and every family gets the same land, which is really fair. β
Tian Chou touched his upright beard and said, "Even if you still have knowledge." When Gongsun Chan harmed me, I was angry, so I led my people to this valley for three years. When we first arrived here, there were thorns all over the ground, and there was no grass, but we opened up the land one by one, which led to today's scene. Here, there is no need to worry about government oppression, no need to worry about foreign invasions, no worries about homeless rebellions, no wars, no conscriptions, no famine, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment. In your opinion, this is worse than the outside? β
Yuan Xi said: "I've seen this score." See what the word 'good' is, what is good and what is bad? β
Tian Chou calmed down and asked, "What do you think?" β
