Chapter 867

Zhang Xiancun is indeed a very smart child. Not long after the leader of the Abo tribe left, he immediately saw from Cuan's body how to take the first step in teaching Huanan Middle School.

That is to find a Han ancestor for the heads of all the clans in Nanzhong.

This is not impossible. Unlike the Baiyue survivors scattered across Lingnan and Annan at this time, the southwest area has been entangled with the Han people since King Zhuangyu came to Dian.

In terms of its origin, except for a small number of indigenous people in the ancient Dianchi area, most of them migrated south from the Central Plains and Bashu area, and they are not native aboriginals.

Taking Yunnan and Guizhou as an example in later generations, among the largest ethnic groups, the Yi nationality is a close relative of the Han and Tibetans, and the Qiang people moved southward.

The Bai nationality was formed by the early Han people entering and merging with the local area. The Miao nationality was the descendants of Chiyou who migrated southward, and the Yao nationality was one of Jiuli and also migrated southward.

The Dai people moved south from northern Sichuan and southern Shaanxi, that is, Hanzhong and Ankang in Shaanxi, Guangyuan and Bazhong in Sichuan.

Although most of these southward migrations were the result of failed struggles, the blending of various ethnic groups and Han people began in the pre-Qin period. It must be a bit reluctant to say that we can’t distinguish between you and me now, but it is correct to say that there are inextricably linked.

Especially after the Tang and Meng conquered the Southwest, after the Han, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, most of the natives in the south and middle obeyed the imperial court.

Among the local big clans, there are Han people who are localized, and some local people are Sinicized into big clans. It is not difficult for everyone to lean together and find some common ground.

. . . .

In Ailao Mountain, the 87-year-old Cuan Pan still has jet-black hair, and the beard under his chin is still neatly groomed even in this difficult time.

In front of him, Duan Sizhong, grandson-in-law and grand-nephew, was lying on a bed covered with a white linen cloth, already very angry.

But all of this has nothing to do with the pursuit of the Chu Fan Army, Duan Sizhong couldn't bear the water and soil in the Ailao Mountain by himself, and fell ill within a few days after entering the mountain.

Seeing Cuan Pan's arrival, the Dali Duan Clan's clan, which was still resisting at the end, hurriedly reached out and grabbed Cuan Pan's hand with all its strength, even though he was seriously ill.

"Ah Weng, I can't just watch Duan Shi lose everything. After I leave, Cuan Shi will be free."

Duan Sizhong's 'going' naturally meant that he left this world, but although he looked like a slugger, it would not be a problem for three to five days.

But Zhang Xiancun gave Cuan a total of five days in prison. It is about three hundred miles from here to Jianshui, and the road is not very good. Five days is not enough.

"Ye'er is too persistent. The Duan family didn't lose everything, because you are guarding one side. If you gain something, you will lose it. What you gain is destiny, and what you lose is luck."

Hearing what Cuan Pan said, Duan Sizhong's eyes widened suddenly even though he was seriously ill.

He understood everything, and after a long sigh, tears suddenly flowed down his face, "Ah Weng must be in great pain at this moment, the life and death of tens of thousands of people in Cuan's family!"

When Cuan came to the sentence, he couldn't help but burst into tears, "Brother Zhong, Ah Weng can only let you down.

My surname Cuan comes from the Ban family, and my ancestor is the famous Ban Dingyuan, who has multiplied here for hundreds of years. Before Tianbao guarded Nanzhong for the country, there were more than a million people in the clan, and now there are only tens of thousands of people. A Weng can't let the Cuan family It ends in my hands! "

Well, whether people believe it or not, the Cuan clan is a descendant of Ban Dingyuan, Cuan Juan definitely believes it, and those who dare to question him face to face will not escape the long knife at his waist.

Duan Sizhong's chest heaved violently for a while, then his head slowly turned to Cuanchuan's side, and said in a low voice:

"Grandson understands, let Yiniang come in. If the court can tolerate the Duan family, let these thousands of Duan's children obey the court's arrangements. If the court can't accommodate them, let them change their surname to Cuan."

Yi Niang is Cuan Pan's granddaughter and Duan Sizhong's wife, and Cuan Pan knows what Duan Sizhong is going to do.

This is a farewell!

Although his heart was sad, Cuan Juan understood that Zhang Xiancun could still give him this kind of treatment, maybe it was just a momentary soft-heartedness, and if he didn't hurry up to finalize it, the family might be wiped out.

So even though he couldn't bear it in his heart, he immediately asked his children and grandchildren to prepare for the fast horse.

Looking up at the unpredictable white clouds in the sky, Judgment Cuan sighed. He was old and could not see the situation clearly. He thought that with [-] soldiers in his hand, relying on the treacherous mountains and rivers, he could stop the imperial army. Keep a little hope.

Unexpectedly, he was beaten to the end of his life within a month, and thousands of family members were arrested. If they don't surrender now, the Lian Cuan clan will be wiped out.

After a long time, heart-piercing cries came from the inner room. After a while, the granddaughter Yi Niang handed a piece of cloth full of words to Cuan Juan, and said with tears in her eyes, "This is Zhonglang letting slaves go." Give it to Aunt."

Cuan Pan didn't even look at it, and immediately handed it over to his son Cuan Yun behind him. His face regained the coldness and determination that a patriarch who controls the fate of tens of thousands of people should have.

"Catch and kill according to the list!"

Cuan Yun didn't hesitate at all, and immediately led the warriors to the city with their weapons drawn.

The list on this cloth is those monks who can be said to be loyal to the Duan family on the surface, but are actually diehard members of the Azali sect.

Without these monks, Duan Sizhong would not necessarily choose to resist. At the same time, in the past, these monks were also Duan's greatest assistants to influence Cuan.

Although Duan Siping has a deep affection for Cuan Pan's uncle and nephew, just like Zhang Tie and Li Shengtian, it is impossible not to take the most basic measures.

If people in this position do not take basic measures, then they are not repaying their kindness, but imitating Zheng Zhuanggong.

. . . .

It was night, Duan Sizhong hadn't had a drop of water for a day and a night, he was extremely weak, and before Cuan Juan set off, his soul returned to Jiuquan.

As soon as he died, hundreds of Cuan's sons who had been waiting outside the house did not wait for a moment, and immediately rode their horses and set off.

Five days later, in Jianshui Mansion, Zhang Xiancun saw Cuan Juan and still treated him with courtesy. After hearing about Duan Sizhong's deeds, he sighed from the bottom of his heart:
"If Duan Sizhong was in power in the past, Wu An would have entered Dali City so quickly!"

After sighing, Zhang Xiancun immediately reported to the imperial court, posthumously awarded Duan Sizhong as the inspector Taiwei, Tonghai Jiedushi and other positions, and took Duan Sizhong's youngest son into the mansion to raise him personally.

Duan Sizhong's eldest daughter is fifteen years old, gentle and virtuous. Zhang Xiancun recommended her to the palace to his 13-year-old brother. It is very likely that he will come to Tocharo in the future, and Zhang Xianzhao, who is named Duke Xiliu or even King Anguo, will be his concubine. concubine.

Zhang Xiancun took in Nong Minfu's younger sister, and Cuanpan's granddaughter was Liangdi, who became his younger brother's cousin, perfectly inheriting his father Zhang Shengren's messy ethics.

Then he held the hands of Cuan Pan and Nong Minfu, put Duan Sizhong's youngest son on his back in a sling, and specially rode in the gorgeous four-horse chariot of the King of Chu, all the way from Jianshui to Dali City.

While walking, Zhang Xiancun also made people publicize that he will hold a grand banquet in Dali City on August [-]th.

All the masters of caves and strongholds with more than 500 people in the country can come to Dali City to participate, and then they will be divided again.

On September [-]th, civil and military subjects will be held in Dali City. Anyone who is well-educated and brave can come to take the test, regardless of their family background, they will only be awarded officials based on ability.

Although it is impossible to completely quell the rebellion in the Chu family after this set of combos, because Zhang Xiancun is a strong dragon from outside, there must be a large number of vested interests in the local area who will be overthrown. This kind of enmity can only be quelled by force.

But other than that, if there is no conflict of interest with Zhang Xiancun, the forces will gradually let go of their hostility and start trying to find a way to achieve peace.

Of course, the most important thing for Zhang Xiancun now is to write letters.

The person who received his letter was a mother and daughter.

Although the mother is pregnant with Liujia, she can still see the graceful and graceful appearance in the past. As for the appearance, she can be called a picturesque eyebrow, a first-class beauty.

My daughter is a little over three years old, small and round, with crystal clear skin on her face, and a weird and cunning look in her big eyes.

The mother pointed her daughter's chubby face with her light-white finger, "You father! As long as you write a letter, you will definitely order others. Do you know what to do when you see A Weng?"

"I know." The little girl put her hands on her hips like a grown-up, squinted her eyes, and replied with a giggle:
"When you see A Weng, climb up on him and wrap your arms around his neck. If he doesn't agree to my father's business, I won't kiss him."

For this pair of mother and daughter, the mother is naturally Princess Chu who is far away in Luoyang, the capital of the gods, that is, Li Shi, the daughter of Hua Jianxuan and Li Siyuan.
And this daughter is Zhang Xiancun's eldest daughter, and also the only true bloodline granddaughter of Zhang Shengren so far.

If you ask Zhang Xiancun what would he say in his letter?Of course they want money!

Whether it is another entrustment or opening two departments of cultural relics, it is a redistribution of cakes.

But the cakes in the Chu Fan Kingdom are so big, no matter how they are divided, they will not be evenly divided. Naturally, Zhang Shengren, the father, will have to pay another sum of money to buy an extra cake.

At this moment, Zhang Shengren, who was looking at Zhang Xiancun's strategy of governing the country, was quite happy. He felt that his son had grasped the essence of governing the country, and he was about to understand what it means for a son to be a debt collector.

. . . .

Luocheng, also known as ancient Luocheng, is located a little northwest of Hanoi today.

The place of Jiaozhi is actually a bit magical. Judging from the name of the city, when the political center was in Guluo, there was a high probability that it was the period of rebellion and independence. Even if it was not openly independent, it was almost the same.

If the imperial court's control was high, the political center would basically be in Jiaozhou City, which is today's Hanoi.

In addition, in addition to Jiaozhou City, there is also Jiaozhi City more than ten miles to the northwest. This is the site of Jiaozhi County during the Han, Three Kingdoms, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.

Uh, it doesn't seem to be called a ruins, because there are still a lot of people living there,
Now the Wu family has claimed to be the king, so the political center is in Guluo City.

Wu Changwen is about 40 years old this year. If he does not consider the ultimate success or failure in history, he can be regarded as a very capable separatist leader.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, warriors rose wildly, and soldiers and generals were rampant, even in Jinghai, the southernmost sea, without exception.

Since Gao Pian left Annan during the Xiantong period, this place has been a paradise for Yajiang to play traditional crafts.

Qu Chengyu, Yang Tingyi, Jiao Gongxian, including Wu Quanhe and later Yang Sange, and Ding Buling who formally confirmed Vietnam's independence and claimed to be the emperor later, all came from tooth generals, and they all relied on killing their superiors- Jiedu makes the superior.

The only thing that is special is that Jing Haijun is supported by more than ten Han Chinese families. Behind a general is a family.

Therefore, Yajiang does not have to worry about being coerced by Yabing soldiers, but this makes it more difficult for Yajiang to be controlled, or even just suppressed.

Under such circumstances, Wu Changwen, a concubine who grew up in an environment where his father's foundation was robbed and under surveillance, was able to overthrow Sange Yang, and then beat his elder brother Wu Changji to death. , there is nothing I can't do.

At this time, it was also the time when Wu Changwen was at his happiest.

You have to ask him, does Jing Haijun still have a righteous name?He will tell you that there is a righteous name of Jiba.

His elder brother Wu Changji's seemingly useful title of justice was actually deliberately created by the ten generals of the ten families known as the ten envoys.

The purpose is to let the most powerful Wu family, who is respected as the leader, kill each other, while they grab benefits from the side.

When the elder brother gained power, these bastards supported the younger brother, and when the younger brother gained the upper hand, they went to support the elder brother. Anyway, the main goal was to consume all of Wu's capital.

But God Bless Wu Changwen, his idiot brother who couldn't figure out the situation, suddenly died suddenly unexpectedly, and at this moment, the ten envoys who were playing the seesaw lost the possibility of continuing to play.

When Wu Changwen heard the news of his elder brother Wu Changji's death, he knelt down in front of the portrait of his father Wu Quan, secretly swearing that he would accumulate strength to make the Ten Envoys look good.

I just want to think so, but it is still difficult to realize it, because the situation of Jing Haijun at this time is very strange!
At this time, the original Annan Governor's Mansion where Jing Haijun was located originally had twelve prefectures, but now, except for Jiaozhou, Wu'an prefecture, Changzhou, and Fulu prefecture on the Red River Plain, all of them have fallen.

Well, it’s not called a fall, because out of the twelve states in Jinghai, only these four states are the essence of the Han people’s settlements.

As for the rest of the places, when there is free time, the local semi-Chinese barbarians can be wiped out casually. Now everyone is nervously fighting for the chicken-eating finals, so there is no time to pay attention to them.

Since the lands of these four prefectures are all concentrated on the Honghe Plain, and the Wu family, as the alliance leader, controls the most core area, the remaining ten envoys are distributed around the Wu family's territory.

How should I put it, just like a chrysanthemum, Wu Shi is the stamen, and the other ten envoys are ten petals, tightly surrounding Wu Shi in the middle.

This... Good guy, what are the ten envoys, this is an ambush from all sides!
No matter whether Wu Changwen goes out to fight any side, he will be attacked from all sides without dead ends. Unless you are strong enough to fight six or seven at a time, you won't be able to break the game at all.

In history, Wu Changwen just failed to break the situation. In the end, he capsized in the gutter and was killed by several bandits.

Of course, his head hurts even more in this time and space, because he received the news that it is said that the Southern Han and Dali Kingdoms, which were overwhelmed by Jing Haijun before, were actually ruled by the imperial court.

It's worth it!

Wu Changwen was wise enough to immediately put down his hatred and make peace with the Ten Envoys, just like how his father Wu Quan led everyone to defeat the Southern Han army who came to conquer them decades ago.

But suddenly, Wu Changwen's younger brother Wu Changjun, who went to the Southern Han Dynasty and then disappeared, came back.

"Brother, great joy!"

Wu Changjun's face was flushed, and his whole body was trembling with excitement, "My younger brother escaped from death and lurked in Xingwang's mansion for more than [-] days. Finally, I met the Duke of Han, who is in charge of the festival and governing Guangdong and Guangxi."

Speaking of this, Wu Changjun made a big pause on purpose, grabbed the tea bowl and started to drink it.

As soon as Wu Changwen heard the great joy, he couldn't help it, and remembered to grab Wu Changjun's arm and kept asking.

Wu Changjun said after finishing his score: "Brother, after I showed my Wu family's loyalty to the imperial court to Han Gong, although Han Han didn't say anything, the secretary Zhao Guanren soon found me.

He wants our Wu family to pay 20 guan. As soon as the money arrives, Han Gong will help us to play the imperial court, please stay and follow the story of Dingjing Navy. "

20 guan is definitely not a small amount. It may be difficult for the Wu family to get together now that they are bankrupt.

But if you can get the same treatment as Liu Congxiao and continue to guard the place with 20 guan, it is definitely worth it.

After Wu Changwen took two deep breaths, he asked with some doubts: "Mr. Zhang Zhaojun of South Korea won the merits of destroying the country, and he also controlled Lingnan with integrity. Is there still a shortage of 20 guan?"

"Lack, very much!" Wu Changjun replied confidently:

"Brother, I found out clearly that this time the imperial court supported Yan Wang Murong Xinchang's eastern expedition to Korea and Japan, and spent more than 800 million guan in wealth, and even the emperor's internal funds were almost emptied.

Therefore, after the destruction of the Han Dynasty this time, all the treasures in the country were transported to the capital of God to make up for the shortfall.

The reason why the emperor gave Zhang Zhaojun the imperial edict he received in the past was to ask the Duke of Korea to raise the reward himself.

But Lingnan was newly established, and the Korean public did not dare to levy it rashly, so they put the abacus on the heads of us Lingnan clans.

The Feng family and Xian family in Qiong and Yazhou were confiscated with 20 guan, the Chen family in Wuzhou was confiscated [-] guan, Nong Minfu and other sluts were confiscated [-] guan, and the merchants of Xingwangfu were confiscated [-] guan. "

Wu Changwen's eyes widened, and he asked incredulously, "The Chen family of Wuzhou was also confiscated for [-] guan? This seems to be true."

The reason why Wu Changwen was so shocked was because the Wuzhou Chen family was not a powerful family in Lingnan, but their status was very noble.

Because the ancestors of their family, Chen Qin, Chen Yuan and his sons, are the most important literary masters in Lingnan so far.

Historically, Chen Qin was the teacher of Emperor Pingdi and Wang Mang of the Western Han Dynasty. He and his son Chen Yuan played a great role in promoting the Spring and Autumn Zuozhuan to become the foundation of Chinese studies, and even made Wuzhou at that time one of the cultural centers of the country. one.

This is very remarkable. You must know that even at this time, Lingnan is considered a semi-wild land, let alone the end of the Western Han Dynasty.

So regardless of whether the current Wuzhou Chen family is the descendant of Chen Qin and Chen Yuan, but they have played this sign, and their status has become very noble. Generally, if they want to stabilize Lingnan, they will not touch such a family. Instead, hold it high.

So Wu Changwen heard that the Chen family in Wuzhou was also confiscated for [-] guan, and immediately basically believed that Zhang Zhaojun was indeed short of money to appease the soldiers below.

However, he was still a little hesitant, because even if Zhang Zhaojun was temporarily short of money, Dali Kingdom, oh no, it should be the Chu Fan Kingdom?
In the past, Nanzhao took Annan several times, but Wu Changwen couldn't get rid of it.

But it was such a coincidence that when Wu Changwen was hesitating, his general Du Jingshuo came to report that the Chu Fan Kingdom in the northwest dispatched tens of thousands of troops to conquer the Queen Kingdom in the south.

Wu Changwen laughed loudly, "God help me, if I have to stay and follow the story, the seventh brother (Wu Changjun) should be the town envoy in Changzhou!"
