Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 53

Emperor Wen of Wei was in the fourth year of Huangchu, Emperor Zhaolie was in the third year of Zhangwu, and Emperor Shiwan was in the second year of Huangwu.

After offering sacrifices to heaven last year, Liu Chan opened up terraced fields on Mount Wudan in Chengdu. Liu Chan led four princes to cultivate them himself.

In the month of the first month of worship, Liu Chan performed sacrifices for Liu Bei again. After that, he either cultivated terraced fields in Wudan Mountain or studied in the palace during the day, carrying out a veritable farming life. Shun plowed the field, and Emperor Wen personally plowed it." Two stories were sent back.

Zhuge Liang agreed with Liu Chan's behavior very much, thinking that Liu Chan's move would help set an example for the people. When Liu Chan opened up terraced fields, he also came to see Liu Chan, hoping to pay attention to his body, and praised Liu Chan for his style of Emperor Wen.

The beginning of spring in the first month, south of Wudan Mountain.

Liu Chan is dressed in commoner clothes with a hair bun. The commoner clothes are knee-length, with narrow sleeves, a scarf belt around his waist, boots and shoes, and farm tools on his shoulders. Behind him are Huo Yi, Fei Yi, and Wang Ping, who are also dressed in the same way. Four people and more than ten personal guards, Huo Yi and Dong Yun each led a cow.

At first Liu Chan thought that Fei Yi was the most repulsive, but unexpectedly, Fei Yi accepted it openly and did not refuse.Farming requires learning. Liu Chan also helped villagers farm in his previous life as a village official, but he didn't know the farming methods of the Han Dynasty. When he cultivated new fields last year, he invited old farmers to teach. It has been no problem for five people to farm in the past few months.

Just after the spring rain in the morning, Wang Ping lamented that it was a good sign, but the road was a bit muddy and cold, so Liu Chan couldn't help rubbing his hands together to exercise his muscles and bones.

When they arrived at the terraced fields, the five of them rolled up their sleeves, took off their boots and shoes, and rolled up their trousers. A few days ago, it was the first time that Dong Yun changed from a 'meat eater' to a 'drug brown'. The taste is not easy to taste, and it is often easily injured. The hand that used to hold the pen has become rough, and the feet are often scratched by stones, but now Dong Yun, who is used to it, is digging the ground. After a while, Dong Yun still needs to talk to Liu Chan. The two cooperated with the oxen to plow the field.

Fei Yi was weak, but he did not try to be brave. He put down his hoe, smeared the soil on his clothes, walked to the straw mat laid out by the side of the field, sat down, took a sip of the water bag, watched the other four people working hard, and got up. Beat the waist and continue to work in the fields.

As soon as Fei Yi came down to the field, Huo Yi called Fei Yi to come over and plow the field with the ox. Huo Yi tied his short plow rope to the buffalo. Fei Yi led the ox forward, and Huo Yi held the plow behind. Use an ox to pull the plow.

At this time, Liu Chan was also plowing the field with Dong Yun. Liu Chan's field was smaller and the cattle he used were calves. Liu Chan was in front and Dong Yun was behind to support the plow.The four of them are not familiar with each other, and one person needs to cooperate. The paddy fields are extremely sticky to the feet, and every time they lift their feet, it seems that there is a strange force pulling them down to the ground.

Wang Ping has farming experience, so one person sowed pea (pea) seeds on another small field. After sowing the seeds, Wang Ping went to the paddy field to plant rice seedlings.

When the five people were farming, it began to rain lightly again, and the five people did not stop. Liu Chan ordered his attendants to take the bamboo hats, and the five people put them on.

As everyone in Liu Chan was farming, the news that the crown prince Liu Chan also came to farm today slowly spread. Some farmers were farming in the fields, and when they saw others stop farming, they yelled and asked, and someone replied loudly. Prince Liu Chan and several of his officials are also farming today. Even if they have seen the people who cultivated the farmland before Liu Chan, they all stopped their farm work and went on to watch the excitement.

After a while, Liu Chan was plowing near the farm, and gathered hundreds of people. Liu Chan continued to cultivate without saying a word. After a while, seeing that the crowd had not left, Liu Chan shouted to the people: "Are you done with the farm work?"

The common people looked at Liu Chan and the cows with great interest, and when they heard Liu Chan's loud inquiry, the middle-aged farmer with a loud voice replied excitedly: "No, Prince. Are we really farming?"

Liu Chan wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, and responded with a smile, "How can there be fake ones in real farming? Let's compare who will grow more rice per mu this year. How about it?"

The middle-aged farmer heard that he was going to approach Liu Chan, but was stopped by the guards. Liu Chan waved his hand and motioned for the farmer to come over and have a chat, and made an appointment for the autumn harvest. I was so excited that I wanted to cry on the spot.

Everyone watched for a while and saw that the prince was plowing the field without any difference, so they hurried back to the field and were busy with farming. After all, it is not good to miss the season.On the contrary, the farmer immediately took off his bamboo hat when he went out, hurried home to let his wife put it away, and then went out to work by himself.

After Liu Chan and the others finished plowing the small field, Huo Yiyong took out a long plow and tied it between two oxen to plow a large piece of farmland. Two oxen carrying bars are suitable for larger farmland, and one ox is smaller and easier to control.Liu Chan led the ox in front, Fei Yi and Dong Yun supported the plow behind, and the three continued to plow the field.

Huo Yi and Wang Ping, who had finished sowing the bean seeds, went to the small field that had just been plowed, and bent over to plant the seedlings.

At this time, Pan Jun and Ma Liang had just returned to Chengdu. Today they heard that Liu Chan was farming in Wudan Mountain, so they went to have an audience.After all, both of them returned to China because of Liu Chan, and it was not difficult for Pan Jun to return to China. Pan Jun himself thought that it was impossible for him to return to the Han Dynasty, so he wanted to make a better living in Soochow, took orders to put down the chaos of Fan Zhou, and killed many loyalists. The great Han scholar ended up exchanging himself with Sun Huan.

When Pan Jun heard about it, he felt a lot of emotions in his heart. He knew that if he talked about other people, Sun Quan might not change him, but Sun Huan was over [-] years old. Surrendered general, cousin Jiang Wan is still a big man, how to choose, do you still have to think about it?
Sun Quan really thought so, Sun Huan is very outstanding, and he is also a member of the royal family, he likes it very much, even if he does not agree, those clan members will definitely not agree.In addition, Lu Xun felt ashamed of Sun Huan and agreed with the exchange, so Sun Quan reluctantly agreed to the exchange.

Although Pan Jun was afraid of returning to the country, he was relieved to receive letters from Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and Jiang Wan one after another.

After returning to China, the Jingzhou scholars were unwilling to contact him, and only a few Jingzhou people in the prime minister's mansion, such as Ma Liang, were willing to get along with him. Pan Jun was naturally bitter.

Recently, I wanted to see Liu Chan, and Ma Liang also wanted to, so I went with him.

Just as Pan Jun and Ma Liang arrived at the terraced fields, Liu Chan also noticed that he handed the rope to Fei Yi and walked towards Pan Jun and Ma Liang.

Pan Jun and Ma Liang looked at each other, but they didn't expect that Liu Chan was actually farming, and Fei Yi and Dong Yun were also accompanying him.But he couldn't help but think too much, bowed his hands to Liu Chan and said: "I have seen Your Highness."

Although Liu Chan's knees were covered with mud and his clothes were not clean, his body became more and more majestic and imposing, so that no one dared to underestimate him.

Liu Chan said indifferently: "Pan Qing and Ma Qing are sorry for the loss of etiquette, and you two will return home smoothly!"

The two hand in hand and respectfully reported the situation of their return to the country.

Upon hearing this, Liu Chan sighed and said, "It's good to be able to go back to China. Ma Qing's journey was difficult and difficult."

"Pan Qing, don't worry, you have great talent. Your Majesty, the Prime Minister and I are looking forward to your return to the country. You can go to the Prime Minister's Mansion in the near future. Your new official position will naturally come down in a few days. In the future, you can live up to the great man's trust." .”

Liu Chan chatted with the two of them again, focusing on comforting Pan Jun, and then sent them away.

After a while until noon, when Tanaka was busy with his affairs, Liu Chan led the four of them back to the palace to eat, wash, read, and read the memorial without mentioning it.
