374. The Wall
Lu Su has defected to Jiangdong for two years, and he gets along with Sun Ce and Zhou Yu on weekdays.
There are three gentlemen and ministers, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are the same age, Lu Su is three years older than the two of them, and he is only twenty-eight years old in Jian'an.
However, in history, all three were short-lived. After Sun Ce, Zhou Yu died at the age of thirty-six, Lu Su died at the age of forty-six, perhaps the sky was jealous of Jiangdong Juncai, and the next governor after Lu Su, Lu Meng, was only forty-three when he died, only Lu Xun died at the age of sixty-three, and among the four major governors, he finally survived Jiazi.
Also in the winter of the fourth year of Jian'an, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu temporarily returned to Danyang from Jiujiang, Lu Su had to watch Deng Ji's persuasion order, knowing that it was used to recruit heroes, and after thinking for a night, he looked for Sun Ce and Zhou Yu and said: "I have heard for a long time that Sizhou is a fourth-class people's policy, and Cao Mengde has also issued the Nine Grades Family Law, which is to collect the people of the world and establish the foundation of the troubled times." If the general wants to compete with this generation, he can't make contributions in one or two days, and he must not be prepared first! ”
Zhou Yu spoke up: "I have been thinking about this matter recently, but unfortunately I haven't got a good law, if my brother has a plan, ask for advice quickly!" ”
Sun Ce also nodded and said, "Please still ask Brother Zijing to teach me!" ”
Lu Su said: "The general relies on the moat, and the tiger is in the east of the river, and people dare not commit it." However, in the land on the left side of the river, the people are sparse and the land is wide, there are still mountains and more troubles, and it is difficult to recruit soldiers, and it is necessary to divide the defense in various places, and the number of available troops is very insufficient. The general ordered that the sergeant's household be exempted from paying taxes, which is also a good policy, but it is not enough. ”
After a pause, Lu Su said again: "Since the chaos in the world, the people of the northern land are tired of war and avoid chaos, and there are many people who have moved into Jiangdong. However, these northerners only regarded themselves as guests, or thought that they would eventually return to the north, or they were worried that the wasteland would be seized by the officials, and they concealed all the acres of land. It is difficult for the northern people to be used, and the taxes are also invaded, so as to suppress ignorance. The general should pass the order to the world, move south to avoid the chaos of the people, each oral grant of ten acres of land for private property, this official grant land, that is, the idea of returning to the north of the guest residents, and then recruit the people to the south. ”
In this troubled world. The ant-like people are all disgusted and afraid of military disasters, and they all want to have a paradise where they can live in peace without being disturbed, although Deng Ji and Cao Cao's respective policies are good, there are always people who are afraid and unwilling to go to it. There is no shortage of wasteland in Jiangdong, and Lu Su's suggestion can indeed attract more people to move south, and settle the hearts of the people who live in Jiangdong.
Hearing this, Zhou Yu immediately clapped his hands: "Brother's words are really good!" ”
Think of the vast wasteland and swamps in the counties of Jiangdong, and think of the soldiers who are difficult to replenish. Sun Ce only hesitated for a moment, and then said with bright eyes: "Quickly recruit Zhang Zibu and Zhang Zigang, and we will discuss it together." ”
Zhang Zibu is Zhang Zhao, Zhang Zigang is Zhang Hong, these two people have similar names and characters, but they are not brothers of the same clan, one is from Pengcheng, Xuzhou, and the other is from Guangling, Xuzhou. Collectively known as Erzhang, they are Sun Ce's most useful civil officials and strategists.
Speaking of which. The words of the Eastern Wu Qunchen are also very coincidental, the order is the same, outside the two sheets, the original ministers Tai Shi Ci Ziyi, Lu Su Zijing, Zhuge Jin Ziyu. Lv Meng's character Ziming, Buqi's character Zishan, Chen Wu's character Zilie, Lv Fan's character Ziheng, and Quan Cong's character Zihuang. It's like an appointment, everyone is a word.
Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong arrived, and the monarchs and ministers had a few plans, and sure enough, they issued a document and spread it widely.
————
On the day Deng Ji returned to Luoyang, Zhong Xuan went to the suburbs with Xu Shu, Tian Chou, Deng She, etc., and mentioned the matter of being crowned a prince in public.
Unexpectedly, he hid in Nanyang for two months, and Zhong Ji had not returned to Yanzhou, so Deng Ji had to deal with two sentences, and it was better to avoid seeing each other again.
Deng Jigui, a few days later is the first of the year, that is, the Spring Festival, the two Han Dynasty period is also called "three dynasties", "New Year's Dan", "Zhengdan", "Zhengri".
It is worth mentioning that in the Shang Dynasty, the month of Layue was the first year, and after Qin Shi Huang unified the world, he took October as the first year and used it until Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and then changed Meng Chun, that is, the first month of spring, to the first month of the year, and then continued to use it until later generations.
Although the festive atmosphere at this time was not as lively as in later generations, people also attached importance to it, and at the end of the month, the servants in the general's mansion began to clean up inside and out, which was to sweep the dust.
The Spring Festival of this period, mainly after sweeping dust and sacrifices, on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, each phase and giving gifts, called "Feeding Year"; Invite to drink and eat together, called "farewell year"; The young and old gather to drink, and each is blessed with complete blessings, which is called "dividing the year"; Everyone sleeps all night long, waiting for the dawn, called "keeping the year", except that there are no fireworks, and the difference between the future generations is not big.
By this time, Deng Ji had passed the age of twenty-seven, and each year was different.
But this year, after winning all three battles, I can finally take a breather in the troubled times.
Therefore, Deng Ji deliberately rushed back from Nanyang, just to compensate his wife and concubines, children, Tian Shi, Che Huang and other close people to celebrate, if Xie Yun has Mu Xiu, he will also return to Luoyang.
It's a pity that others didn't give him a chance to celebrate.
On the last day of Layue, Deng Ji accompanied Tian Feng and Jia Xu back from a banquet, and when he entered the house, he found that the slaves were dodging and dodging, and they seemed to be a little afraid to look at him.
Deng Ji beckoned the black iron guard on duty at the door and asked, "What's going on at home?" ”
The black iron guard was asked, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "The lord goes to the backyard, you know!" ”
Walking to the backyard full of suspicion, he heard Wu Yao scolding loudly when he was far away.
I don't know who she is scolding, but the faint words such as "vertical son" and "non-human" are already very ugly, and the sound is in the Jiaoqin courtyard.
Deng Ji frowned and walked towards it.
Outside Jiaoqin Courtyard, several maids gathered together and were whispering, and when they saw Deng Ji, they scattered in a hurry and fled.
Glaring angrily at the fleeing maids, Deng Ji shouted angrily outside: "How many days will it take to be stable and start spilling again?" ”
After scolding, he entered the courtyard, and saw that the door of Jiao Qin's room was closed, Wu Qiao was holding Deng Zhang in his hand, and Shang Chongli kept scolding.
Wu Yao's face was full of tears, and when Deng Ji approached, he closed his mouth and sneered.
Deng Zhang shrank early and hid behind his mother's skirt.
Deng Ji frowned and asked her, "What's the matter?" ”
Wu Miao pursed his lips and pulled Deng Zhang in front of him: "Look at yourself!" ”
Deng Zhang also had tears on his face, and one eye was black.
What's even more dazzling is that on his small neck, there are several purple and black fingerprints arranged symmetrically on both sides.
Deng Zhang is only eleven years old this year, just looking at him, Deng Ji, who is a father, suddenly became angry and asked Deng Zhang: "Who did it?" ”
Deng Zhang didn't answer, Wu Jiao pointed to Jiaoqin House: "Ask your family Xi'er to go!" ”
Even if the brothers fight, they shouldn't be killed, not to mention that Deng She's brother is the elder brother, and he has a lot of teachings to love his younger siblings on weekdays.
Deng Ji was furious, stepped forward and pushed the door, the door was pinned from the inside, and he didn't move, he wanted to kick it open, but he thought about it or held back, and shouted: "Open the door!" ”
The door opened from the inside, and Jiao Qin protected Deng Shi and knelt on the ground: "General! Xi'er is crazy today for some reason, he is not like a normal person, and the general pities him for his young ......"
Deng Ji tore away Jiao Qin and looked at Deng She, only a scratch on his left cheek, and the rest of the skin exposed outside his clothes was unharmed.
Deng Ji yelled at him: "Why did you hurt your brother? ”
His voice is usually fine, and the violent drinking in the anger is indeed a bit like thunder, blowing up people's eardrums.1 Deng Shi was so frightened that he shrank back, but his mouth was tightly closed, and he didn't say a word.
Whether it is in the past life or in this life, Deng Ji's two fathers are feudal patriarchal, believing in filial piety under the stick, I don't know how many boards he has suffered in his previous life, although he was born with memories in this life, there is no naughtiness of ordinary children, and he is rarely punished, but he saw it with his own eyes when several brothers were beaten, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with this.
Seeing that Deng Shi was still stubborn at this time, Deng Ji was so angry that he wanted to rush forward and slap him, but he still remembered that he was heavy on his hands and feet, and he was afraid that he would be killed and broken, so he turned around and shouted angrily outside the house: "Take my strip!" ”
Deng Ji also has a special strip for disciplining children at home, Deng Shi and Deng Zhang have been beaten when they were naughty, but the direction that their mother has taught since childhood is the future master, and under various guards, they are not beaten many times.
On the contrary, Deng Wei kept causing trouble, but Deng Ji never attacked his daughter, and the strip was taken away by Wu Wei, and he often greeted Deng Wei, so he had to keep it to this day.
The slaves had already fled far away, and after Deng Ji drank it, no one paid attention to him.
Only Wu Ji still pulled Deng Zhang to stand outside, and Deng Ji drank to her again: "Take my strips!" ”
He said angrily to Deng Zhang: "Wait in the front yard!" ”
Deng Ji's angry and hideous appearance is rare in the family, today's scene, Deng She, Deng Zhang are afraid, Deng Zhang turned his head to look at Wu Qiao, Wu Miao shouted to his son: "Go and confront clearly!" ”
After a sound, Wu Miao stomped down, no longer cared about his son, and went back to the house to get the strips.
Deng Zhang had to shrink his head and go to the front yard alone.
Deng Shi didn't dare to go, so he only shrank behind Jiao Qin, and Jiao Qin turned his head to reassure: "Don't be afraid, Grandma will accompany you!" ”
Deng Ji snorted coldly at Jiao Qin: "You stay in the inner courtyard, if you dare to go, even you will be beaten!" ”
pulled Deng Shi and dragged him to the front yard.
How many eyes stared up and down, after Deng Ji gave the order, Jiao Qin didn't dare to follow, only sent to the door with tears, and shouted loudly at the backs of the father and son: "Although Xi'er is a concubine, she is also the flesh and blood of the general, she is still young and ignorant, please don't punish the general too much!" ”
Deng Ji dragged Deng Shixing to the front yard and drank first: "Ugly ghost, make people ask Yang Pan and Wu Qian, what is going on today?" ”
Dian Wei also went to the banquet today, and he didn't know it, but Deng Ji went back to the backyard for a while, Deng Zhang arrived first, with injuries on his eyes and neck, who dared to hurt him like this in the Sizhou territory? Deng Ji dragged Deng Shi angrily at this time, and immediately understood.
Yang Pan followed Deng She, Wu Qian followed Deng Zhang, and Dian Wei personally led people to inquire.
The two brothers stood in the courtyard, and Deng Ji first asked Deng Zhang: "Why did Brother Ru do it?" ”
Deng Zhang shut up and didn't answer.
Deng Ji asked Deng Shi again: "Why did you do it?" ”
Deng Shi didn't answer.
The two brothers even asked a few times, which naturally added fuel to Deng Ji's anger, he had never encountered today's situation, and he had already woken up early, and he was about to burst into a rage.
After a while, Wu Ji took the strip in person, Deng Ji's face was bruised, and he rushed at her first: "Go back to your house!" ”
Seeing that Deng Ji was really angry this time, but her son was the one who was seriously injured, and he was the younger brother of the two brothers, she was not so afraid, so she turned around and went back to the inner courtyard.
Wu Ji walked on the front foot, and Deng Ji beckoned Deng Zhan and others in the Black Iron Guard: "Suppress the son of evil for me!" ”
Raise the strip, pump it on the back of Deng She's buttocks, and after a dozen strokes, turn around and smoke Deng Zhang a few times, and then turn around and smoke Deng She.
Deng Shexian was still gritting his teeth, but his father just didn't stop, and finally couldn't help crying in pain.
When Dian Wei returned, Yang Pan and Wu Qian were questioned separately, but they were silent. (To be continued.) )
