Chapter 568: What a big fief

On the first day of January, Qufu was full of frost, and the weather showed no signs of getting warmer. Zhao Wuxian put on the crown court clothes of the secretary, and entered the palace early in the morning, and when he came back at noon, he found that the peach stalk had been hung outside the mansion.

The peach stalk is a peach charm, made of peach wood, please engrave a blessing spell on it, and hang it at the door of the house once a year to expel evil spirits and bless the peace of the mansion.

This house was originally unlucky, originally the Dongmen clan, this family was knocked down by Sanhuan in the political struggle, decayed, to Lu Zhaogong when the descendants of the Dongmen clan were just the monarch's cronies, so the clan was expelled.

Then it fell into the hands of Yang Hu, and after Zhao Wuxian overthrew Yang Hu, this piece of land was given to him, and it was basically empty in the past few years, and it was not used until he officially became the owner of Qufu. Zhao Wuxian was busy outside for Dinglu, and everything in the mansion was presided over by Bo Mi, and it was also well organized. Needless to say, this peach stalk was naturally hung by the careful hostess, and she had been trying to make Zhao Wuxian feel like he was going home according to the customs of the Jin Kingdom.

The state of Lu used the Lu calendar, and as early as November, it passed the New Year and entered the eleventh year of the Luhou Song Dynasty. But Zhao Wuxian and Bo Mi are Jin people, and many customs in the mansion are still according to the summer calendar, not to mention that Qufu was first set in November, how could they have the heart to celebrate the New Year? Now it is different, Zhao Wuxian's career in the Lu State is thriving, like cooking oil on fire, and he will hold a banquet in the mansion tonight to entertain his retainers and guests.

After entering the house, Zhao Wuxian asked the soldiers to swing a large copper tripod weighing several hundred catties to the main hall, and let the maid call the concubine Bo Qi to watch.

Zhao Wuxian was called, Bo Qi came quickly, if it wasn't for more and more servant maids to follow along the way, she even wanted to pick up her deep clothes. Run.

A few years have passed, and Bo Qi is nearly twenty years old, but she has inherited Xia Ji's excellent genes, and she has always retained the appearance of fifteen or sixteen years old, with a petite and slender figure. And she has a beautiful complexion, and she is a rare beauty. It's also beautiful without makeup. Today, because it was the New Year of the Xia calendar, she painted a little makeup, probably knowing that Zhao Wuxian didn't like the heavy makeup like lime plastering the wall, but she just drew her eyebrows slightly, wiped her lipstick, and didn't rub thick lead powder like some aristocratic women in Lu Kingdom.

But it was such a small change that made her even more picturesque, which made Wuxian's eyes shine.

"General, what kind of tripod is this?"

Zhao Wuxian patted Dading. smiled: "Of course it's my family's tripod, Zhao Qing's tripod!" It is engraved with an inscription on it. ”

Bo Mi, who combed the aristocratic woman's hairstyle, tilted his head to portray the simple glyph, and the meaning of the word was used in front of the obscure big bronze tripod, but he still didn't understand one thing.

"The concubine still doesn't understand, how big is the general's fiefdom?" Bo Mi was a little ignorant, but fortunately she knew that Zhao Wuxian entered the palace this morning, and she accepted the order again and received the territory.

"I won't be able to explain it for a while. It's better to point it out to you directly on the map. ”

If it weren't for a special explanation, Zhao Wuxian would also be a little confused about what the hell the awkward Zongzhou grammar in the Tong Ding Ce book said. It is not difficult for him to love his concubine, so he asks people to bring the newly made Lu Guoyu map.

It was as laborious as moving the copper tripod, and seven or eight people carried the map into the hall, but they saw that on the wooden board that was square by one zhang, the appearance of the mountains and rivers of the Lu country was molded with soft clay, whether it was Jishui Surabaya. Or Taishan Dongmeng, or Qufu Duyi, the edge of the small city, all have been marked on the sand table.

The terrain of Lu is undulating and hilly. The traditional flat map was no longer suitable, and at Zhao Wuxian's request, a group of mathematics disciples of Ji Qiao entered the palace and searched for the map. They cooperated with the public opinion of Lu country, according to their observations, made a map with contour lines, and further let the pottery craftsmen make sand tables, Lu pottery urns can be anthropomorphic pottery embryos molded to be the same as the real thing, so plastic workers, is the best choice for making sand tables.

And so there is this thing.

The ancestral dragon of later generations "took mercury as a hundred rivers and seas, starved each other, and had astronomy and geography on the bottom", and should be the founder of China's sand table. Ma Yuan, the founder of the Eastern Han Dynasty, used white rice to integrate the topography of mountains and rivers and the distribution of roads, and told Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu about the situation in Longxi, and he was the first person to use the sand table for war.

But on this historical line, even if there are still them in later generations, they can only pick up Zhao Wuxian and pick up the teeth and wisdom of the skilled craftsmen of the Lu country.

……

After the erection and concubines retreated, Zhao Wuxian and Bo Qi stood in front of the sand table, leaning down and looking down, looking at the mountains and rivers. Bo Mi's eyes widened in curiosity, after his younger brother went south to Wu, Zhao Wuxian was his heaven, and she was also his important listener and appreciator.

Zhao Wuxian stroked the girl's lubricated hand and pointed on the sand table.

"This square city is Qufu, and you and I are in the city at the moment." Qufu was made larger than the rest of the cities and was very prominent in the center of the map.

Their fingers intertwined, pointing westward.

"There are two rivers here, one is Surabaya and the other is Susu."

"The concubine knows that the ice chiseled in the moon is the Zhusi who went." Those ice cubes felt cold to the touch, and now they have been sent to the ice cellar, and they will be used one after another in February.

"They were entangled and ran south, and were considered monogamous by the Lu people." Speaking of this, Bo Mi felt a burst of happiness in his heart, although he could only be a concubine, but he was also satisfied with his husband.

Wuxian pointed to the green line that represented the river: "However, the eastern border of my fiefdom is the ...... of Susi."

"It's so close to Qufu, but it's ...... for a half-day trip" Bo Mi's family was out of seal when she was young, but she also knew common sense, and generally the area within a day's journey from the capital was not sealed.

"If you don't get closer, how can you look at Qufu, Luhou, and the thoughts of the children?"

The fingers of the two stroked the remnants of Taidai in the north, and the potter's skills were vivid, restoring the trend and height of the mountain range well, and even decorated with a small pine branch, which made people immersive.

"This is the northern border of my fiefdom, just at the foot of Mount Tai, across a stream from Meng's Yiyi. The scenery of Mount Tai is beautiful, and when I marry Lingzi, and when the country of Lu is more peaceful, I will take you and others to play. ”

"Wei ......" Originally, Bo Qi was still very afraid of the future eldest woman, but now her heart has been set a lot, and she has already got what she wants, and she can rest assured.

"The fief extends to the west and south, and extends to the south and west of the Lu State, adjacent to Wei, Cao, Song, and Qi. Although the place is not big. It's only a few hundred miles, but according to the danger of Kang's father in the south, there is the benefit of Puji in the west, and Onozawa has become the inner lake of my home. Zhao Wuxian said lightly, but Bo Qi was shocked.

Her gaze swept back and forth several times over the entire sandbox: "General's fiefdom." There is a full third of Lu Guoda! Among them, there are even more ...... in the thousand-room city," she counted carefully.

"XVII, XVIII, XIX...... There are a total of nineteen euphems marked on the map! ”

"That's right, nineteen euphem, not including those 100 households and 10 rooms. The ownerless belong to me, and the one who has the lord must be vassal or transferred. Nineteen yi, twice as large as the earlier Xilu, and also more than the Handan clan of the Jin state. There are more than 300,000 mouths, and this is the number of people under my rule. It's slightly inferior to Han's. ”

In fact, after Gongshan Bufu was defeated and fled, Fei Yi was also under the control of Zhao Wuxian, but he was too greedy to eat it all in one go, so he decided to use this place as Luhou's "direct jurisdiction", in fact, he sent a subordinate to manage it.

Do you want Jae Yu to move his position?

Thinking about it later, his hand touched Bo Mi's beautiful face: "How? ”

"Multi-...... At the peak of the Xing family, it was only three yi, with 20,000 or 30,000 people. ”

Then there was her waist. The girl was pulled closer: "Is it big?" ”

"Big ......" Bo Mi's face turned crimson, and he hurriedly added: "What a big fief." The general is truly remarkable......"

She stopped Zhao Wuxian's further attack, and said breathlessly: "I hope the general is not to blame, the concubine does not understand political affairs and military disputes, but the Xing family also entered the Jin Kingdom as a foreigner, and there may be some commonalities." ”

"Hmm. You said. ”

Bo Mi's eyes flashed with worry: "After the decline of the Xing family, my father was drunk all day, he sighed, his prosperity was also vigorous, and his death was also sudden. The general entered Lu for three years. It's good to get such a large piece of territory, but I'm worried about ......."

"I'm worried that I won't be proud for a few years before I betray my relatives and leave the country, and be driven out of the country by the Lu people?"

Zhao Wuxian smiled and gently stroked her flat lower abdomen: "Don't worry, I'm not the impulsive young man in the lower palace anymore, I stole the politics of this country with the long sword in my hand, but I will use some poetry and books when governing." I will design a system to make the secretaries and doctors of Lu obedient and survive this crisis, so that the Zhao family's rule in the Lu country will continue! ”

As he spoke, he kissed it and kept asking for it, but Bo Mi, who had responded violently in the past, kept half-pushing and half-pushing today: "General, I can't do it today......

"Nothing, nothing, don't worry......"

……

After the clouds and rain, they bathed and changed clothes together, and Zhao Wuxian sent Bo Qi to prepare for the evening banquet.

According to the rules of the Jin Kingdom, today the guests should be entertained with the wine brewed after the autumn, and the lambs should be slaughtered and distributed to the low-level retainers, while those guests can gather together in the high hall, raise a glass to the master, and chant in unison for longevity!

He himself walked back and looked at the big copper tripod called "Zhao Qingding", and when Xilu was embarrassed and lacked metal, whenever he got a ritual weapon like a tripod, Zhao Wuxian would melt it as soon as possible, cast weapons, cast coins, in short, it was better than putting it on the temple as a decoration, or burying it in the ground.

But this tripod will not suffer this fate, as the end of the inscription says: children and grandchildren will always be used. The gold and stone are immortal, this thing is to be passed down to the world, so Zhao Wuxian will keep it, and if he wants to melt it, he will go to grab the ritual utensils of other people's temples to melt it, for example...... Wei? The country is rich, but it is weak.

But that's at least the time of the summer and autumn harvest.

Zhao Wuxian's fingertips touched the inscription under the concave, silently recited the above paragraph, and chewed the taste carefully: "Gong Nai ordered Zhao Qing to be sealed in Lu." Mountains and rivers of tin, vassals of Tsuchida! ”

The top priority is to make a long-term plan for Zhao's Lu country!

At the same time, in the Ji family's mansion, a white cloth was still tied to his head, and Ji Sun Fei, who was dressed in sackcloth, was also reciting a copy of his life with red eyes.

"As far as Susi in the east, as far as the river in the west, as far as Kangfu in the south, and as far as Taidai in the north......"

When the policy book landed, Ji Sun Fei was dumbfounded, and one-third of the Lu country fell into the hands of Zhao Wuxian, and the Ji family, which had the widest fief in the past, only the small food town by the Yishui was left, and even the retainers could not support it, and there were countless people who rebelled against the Ji family in the past few days.

His ten-year-old sister Ji Ji was ignorant, she wore a sheep's horn haircut, and she was also dressed in a kudzu coarse cloth to guard her father's filial piety, she opened her eyes wide, pulled the corner of Ji Sun's fat clothes and asked.

"Brother, what is this?"

Ji Sunfei squatted down and took his sister's hand, and said viciously: "Enemy, this is the evidence of Ji's enemy, he took away his father's position as Zhengqing, seized my Feiyi, and finally forced his father to death, you have to remember it firmly!" Our enemy, he is incomparably strong, but he will perish in the end! ”

He hugged his sister and didn't let her see his tears: "But you and I can't destroy him just by praying for Haotian to send disasters, Sister, you have to grow up quickly, you have to help Brother A's revenge for your father together!" ”

And in a humble room deep in an alley in Qufu, in front of Confucius, who had not left the house for a long time, Liu Xiaji also dropped a volume of silk books.

"Zhao Wuxian's name is Lu Qing, and he is really dedicated to Lu Quan, so don't you ignore Zhong Ni?"
