Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

In the early morning, Liu Chan, whose drunkenness subsided, was quite speechless about the absurd things that happened last night.

For more than ten years since he came to the throne, he thought he was a wise king and could control his desires, but unexpectedly his wisdom was ruined by wine and sex.

Hey!
What's going on with Deng Ai, he didn't dissuade him, but let himself enjoy female sex.

It had to be fortunate that Dong Yun wasn't there, otherwise I would have been sprayed to death by him.

Forget it, it's all on.There is nothing to worry about, just treat yourself as a reward for your hard work, and just pay attention next time.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister's army will arrive in Wancheng in two days," the attendant reported.

Liu Chan, who was kneeling on the couch, was shocked, stood up and said hastily: "Let the Yin sisters go to Chengdu immediately, and don't stay in Wancheng."

"promise!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Chan paced in the hall for a while, and warned: "What happened last night, everyone kept their mouths shut, let Deng Ai also pay attention to it, and the prime minister must not know about it."

"promise!"

Liu Chan sighed, he finally understood why the emperor likes to be a faint king, the faint king is comfortable!
For example, Sima Yan, the founding emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty, worked in personnel affairs for several years, and finally became a faint king later.At that time, there were tens of thousands of concubines in the harem, and he rode a goat cart at will, pampering the concubines wherever he went. It was extremely absurd, but it was also the dream paradise of many men.

There are less than ten concubines in my harem plus Xinna's Yin sisters.Compared with Sima Yan, he is so far away!
It's a pity that with my aptitude and mission, I guess I can't be a faint king in this life, I can only be a wise king and a celebrity in history.

Liao Li walked in with a smile on his face, cupped his hands towards Liu Chan and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Liu Chan glared at Liao Li, and said angrily, "Where does the joy come from?"

Liao Li stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the Nayin clan, all the surnames in Wancheng are attached to Danggui."

"Oh?" There was a smile on the corner of Liu Chan's mouth, and he said, "Your words are quite meaningful?"

"Your Majesty, do you know the origin of the Yin family?" Liao Li said.

Liu Chan sat on the couch, pointed to the sideways seat, signaled Liao Li to take a seat, and said, "I would like to hear your detailed explanation."

"Promise!" Liao Li took his seat, cupped his hands and said, "Yin's surname is not Yin's surname, but Guan's surname. Its ancestors were formally the descendants of Guan Zi (Guan Zhong) in the Spring and Autumn Period. Because Tian's generation was Qi, Guan's children had no choice He fled and became an official in the state of Chu, and Guan Xiu (Yin Xiu) was granted the title of official of Yin, so descendants took Yin as their surname."

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, many descendants of great officials named themselves clans because of their feudal lands. For example, Wei Yang (Gongsun Yang) was also called Shang Yang because he was granted the land of Shang.Many surnames such as Zhao, Han, Wei, Tang, Qin, and Zhou in later generations came from "Yi as the clan".

For example, during the Warring States period, the ancestors of Qin and Zhao were both surnamed Ying, but due to the different entrusted lands, there were Qin surnames Ying and Zhao surnames Ying.By the end of the Warring States period, the surnames merged and disappeared completely in the Han Dynasty.

By the time Sima Qian wrote historical records, the division of surnames in ancient times had disappeared, so he himself was not very clear about surnames.That's why there is a saying that Qin Wangzheng, Ying surnamed Zhao, is called Zhaozheng.But if it is called strictly, from the time when Ying Feizi was entrusted with the land of Longyou Qin, the lineage of the Qin State should be called the Qin family with the surname of Ying, so as not to be different from the Zhao family.

Of course, it would not be wrong to call the state of Qin the Zhao family with the surname Ying, because the Zhao family with the surname Ying had fiefdoms first, and the ancestors of the Qin family with the surname Ying mixed with those with the Zhao family name, and called themselves the Zhao family with the surname Ying. To show their dignity.Since Qin Feizi was conferred the land of Qin, he was called Qin Ying.

Liao Li glanced at Liu Chan, saw that he didn't respond, and continued: "So after Yinxiu, the Yin family took root in Nanyang, and it went through Chu, Qin, the former Han, and the later Han for hundreds of years. , the relationship is intricate. Guangwu's wife, Yin Lihua, and his mother, the Deng family, are members of the Xinye Deng family."

"In the early days of the Later Han Dynasty, the Yin family was a noble family, but it became weak in the middle of the Han Dynasty, and the Deng family was the queen. When the Later Han Dynasty reconciled with the emperor, the two queens, Deng and Yin, hated each other, and the relationship between Deng and Yin declined. Even so, the Yin family was still a prominent one. , on the rich side of the place..."

In short, the Yin family has taken root in Nanyang for hundreds of years, and through several generations, it has married various local gentry clans, and the network of relationships is extremely huge.Their weakness is only relative to their own before, and they are still the top gentry for various small and medium gentry in the local area.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, Yin Kui, governor of Yuzhou, Yinde of Langya, and Yinxiu of Shaofu, belonged to the Yin clan of Nanyang.In Shu Han, there was also Yinhua, a member of the Nanyang Yin clan, who had been sent to Soochow in the early years, but he died early, and did not join the army this time.

Liu Chan nodded slightly, and after listening to Liao Li's narration, he also understood why the Yin family spared no effort to flatter him.Because if they don't work hard, they will lose their status in the world and become middle and lower gentry.

After all, the Deng family is also a big family in Xinye. If they are relatives, Deng Zhi, the governor of Jiangzhou, and Deng Ai, the general of Zhenbei, are all members of their Deng clan.Deng Ai and Deng Zhi would still promote talented people in the clan when faced with requests from people with the same surname.

Liao Li stroked his beard and said, "Your Majesty is now accepting the Yin family. During this battle, the Yin family will do their best to stabilize the surnames in Nanyang for my great man, and send food to the people so that our army can resist Cao Rui."

Touching the smooth skin under his jaw, Liu Chan thought about it and said, "It seems that I made Yin Zong follow Anguo to manage military affairs, but I used him wrongly."

After a pause, Liu Chan ordered: "Feng Yinzong is the servant, and he will serve under the account of Jingzhou in Lu as the servant."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"promise!"

However, Liu Chan was still worried, and asked, "Gongyuan, if the world is at peace, and the nobles in Nanyang are my troubles, what should I do?"

The influence of Nanyang scholars in the Eastern Han Dynasty was too great, not only affecting the local area, but also affecting the court situation, which made Liu Chan have to worry, and there were many Nanyang scholars in the Han Dynasty.

Liao Li pondered for a long time, picked up a pen and wrote "Feng" on the palm of his hand.Liu Chan was taken aback for a moment, then took a deep look at Liao Li, and stopped talking.

……

Biyang, the camp of the Wei army.

The gray-haired Tian Yu shook his head and chuckled after reading the persuasion letter sent by Liu Chan, and put it on the case.

"Mr. Xuande, you have a strong temperament, and you seldom do cunning things. Looking at a gentleman now, he is quite scheming, and wants to take the strategy of separating the monarch and his ministers. Although he is not like a gentleman, but judging from today's achievements, he can be said to be superior to the monarch. The saying that the tiger father has no dogs and sons is just fulfilling the king." Tian Yu whispered to himself.

Outside the tent, the confidant strode in, cupped his hands and said: "Sure enough, as you expected, the people of Shu sent letters to your Majesty's army account to respond to the general's uprising."

After a pause, the cronies panicked and said, "Fu Jun, if Your Majesty is suspicious, what should we do?"

Tian Yu was very calm, and said calmly: "We have done nothing wrong, why are we so worried. And your Majesty is smart, so he naturally understands that this is a trick of the Shu people."

Seeing Tian Yu's calmness, the confidant didn't panic anymore.

Tian Yu's unflappable support comes from his in-laws, Sun Zi.His daughter married Sun Zi's son as his wife, and the relationship between the two families is very good.Tian Yu's appointment as governor of Yuzhou has something to do with Sun Zi being favored by Cao Rui.

Tian Yu stood up, paced in the tent, and said, "Where did the Shu thief Wei Yanbing go?"

The city of Xinye is small, and it is also the governor's office of Jingzhou, hoarding grain and grass.Relying on the [-] soldiers in his hands and the prestige since he ruled Jingzhou, Hu Zhi managed to get everyone to work together to resist Zhuge Liang's siege.

Zhuge Liang saw that Xinye was difficult to get down, and Cao Rui's army was about to go south.As a last resort, he divided his troops with Wei Yan, and let Wei Yan besiege Xinye and resist the harassment of Tianyu in Biyang to the east.

"Qi Fujun." The confidant said: "Wei Yan repaired the camp outside the city, but did not march."

Tian Yu frowned slightly, and said: "Wei Yan is worthy of being the general of the bandit army, and he is indeed difficult to deal with."

Tian Yu could see Wei Yan's actions and purpose at a glance.Wei Yan's purpose of repairing the camp was not only to resist his own rescue, but also to prevent Hu Zhi from breaking out of the city, completely trapping Hu Zhi.

In the corner of the tent, Xun Feng cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I think that the current difficulties are not outside. Although the Lord is married to Sun Zhongling (Sun Zi), he is there to persuade Your Majesty. It's just that the Lord can have I have thought about it, now that the army is out, and there is a connection between the suspect and the foreign enemy, how can His Majesty feel at ease."

"Besides, this battle is a battle to decide whether our Great Wei Dynasty will move its capital to Hebei. There will be losses in this battle, and the Central Plains will be in chaos. So how can Your Majesty not be concerned about it?"

"Oh!" Tian Yu stopped pacing, and asked: "In your opinion, you should think how to dispel your majesty's doubts."

Xun Feng pondered for a while, and said: "In my opinion, the lord of the government should leave the army here and lead his personal guards into the army alone. When your majesty sees the lord coming, he will know the lord's sincerity, and then he will be able to entrust important matters to the lord with peace of mind." .”

Tian Yu sighed, and said: "That being said, if She's army goes to the camp today, it will be one day late to rescue Xinye, and the hearts of Nanyang will gradually disperse."

"Forget it, a certain guard entered the camp alone."
