Chapter 27 The Hedong Family
Chapter 40 Hadong Family
"Oh! There is such a thing." Liu Xie was overjoyed. Hedong is indeed a good place, with salt and iron, which are necessary for future strategies.

Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty! Ironware is becoming more and more important nowadays. The casting and smelting of weapons is much more sophisticated than before. The sharpness of ironware is far better than that of bronze. If it can be mined and refined on a large scale, it will surely strengthen the army."

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and even during the entire Three Kingdoms period, the princes fought mostly with bronze weapons, and iron weapons rarely occupied two layers, and they were mostly used by generals.

Of course, it is most frequently used on arrow clusters. After all, bronze is not easy to make arrow clusters, and their lethality is not as good as iron.

Liu Xie couldn't help admiring Jia Xu more and more. This person's vision is far beyond ordinary people's.

The future must be the world of iron. Bronze will eventually decline and will soon lose its market. In the late Three Kingdoms period, there were no large armies to fight and the supply of iron weapons was satisfied. Bronze basically bid farewell to the stage of history.

So Liu Xie immediately called Xu Huang to ask him a question or two.

Xu Huang simply replied: "Your Majesty! There is indeed an iron prison in Hedong, and there are more than one place. There are not many mines beside Wuxing Lake, and they are mainly concentrated in the mountains near Anyi City and Jiechi, but..."

It turns out that the iron mines are also concentrated in Jiechi, which is a good thing. In the future, a city will be built there to specialize in salt and iron.

It's just that Xu Huang hesitated to speak, Liu Xie asked: "Why is Gongming hesitating? You are not a person with this personality. If you have something to say, it's okay to say it."

Only then did Xu Huang say: "Your Majesty! These iron mines are controlled by the aristocratic family, not in the county guard's mansion. For example, the iron mine near Wuxing Lake is in the hands of the Liu family in Jiecheng."

"The Liu family? Is this a big family from Hedong?" Liu Xie asked.

Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the aristocratic family has gradually grown, and the place has been controlled by the aristocratic family. The Liu family must be able to control the nearby iron mines, which must be a not small aristocratic family in Hedong.

"Your Majesty! The Liu family is one of the largest families in Hedong, ranking second, and its strength should not be underestimated. The Liu family controls all the officials in Jiecheng." Xu Huang explained.

Liu Xie became even more curious after hearing this: "The Liu family ranks second. Is there any family that is higher than them and a higher level?"

There is no need for Xu Huang to say anything at this time, Jia Xu on the side has already guessed something, and said: "Your Majesty! This first-class family should be the Wei family in Anyi. The Wei family is also a big family with great influence in the whole country. Xie The Liu family in the county and the Pei family in Xiwen should be second-class families in Hedong, and the others are small families."

Hearing Jia Xu's mention, Liu Xie became more interested, and asked about nothing, "Oh! Jia Aiqing knows a little about these things, but I don't know how these three families are related, how did this Wei family become my first-class man?" big family."

Jia Xu replied: "Your Majesty, the Wei family has a lot of background. It is after the Changping Houwei General in Emperor Wu's time. It has been praised and favored by the court for generations. The emperors of all generations have commended and rewarded them for their achievements. The big man gives preferential treatment to meritorious ministers."

Marquis of Changping!
In the entire 400 years of the Han Dynasty, only one person had this title, and it had a far-reaching influence, hitting Wei Qing who was more than a thousand miles away from the hinterland of the Huns.

Unexpectedly, the first family in Hedong was actually a descendant of Wei Qing.

Mentioning that the Wei family was admiring the view, the faces of Cai Yan and the two daughters changed slightly. They glanced at Liu Xie and the others, and returned to the carriage with their heads down, without any interest in playing.

Liu Xie didn't notice any difference between the two, and asked again: "Then the Liu family and the Pei family must have a lot of background too!"

Liu Xie of the Pei family has heard about it. After all, he likes to hear that the Pei family was one of the most famous families in the Jin Dynasty, Sui and Tang Dynasties, and had the title of one of the seven great families.

But in Dahan, it is only a middle-class family at this time, and it can only rank second in Hedong, let alone in the whole Dahan.

"Your Majesty is right. Both Liu and Pei are here, and the Liu family is the most famous among them. If I mention one person, Your Majesty must know about it." Jia Xu stroked his beard and continued:

"Your Majesty will know who he is if you tell me a story. In ancient times, there was a dense willow forest to the west of Zhangou. One night in late autumn, when Zhanhuo passed by the willow forest, it was suddenly raining heavily. He hurriedly hid in a Take shelter from the rain in the ruined temple.

Just at this time, a young woman also came here to take shelter from the rain and sat opposite him.In the middle of the night, the young woman woke up from the cold, so she got up and begged to sit in Zhanhuo's arms to warm her body and drive out the cold.

Zhan Huo hastily declined: "It's absolutely not allowed. In the wilderness, it's not appropriate for lonely men and widows to be together. If you sit in my arms again, it will be even more indecent." "

"Let's sit still—Liu Xiahui!" Liu Xie suddenly realized that this guy was the source of the Liu family, so he couldn't help laughing:
"It is said that Liu Xiahui is a saint. I don't think so. I think he was weak at the time. He was either physically weak or too cold physically. In a word, he can't do it!"

Or that girl is too ugly, of course Liu Xie didn't say that.

"Uh!" Xu Huang and Jia Xu were both stunned. The emperor's explanation was new and strange, and they both smiled wryly. Jia Xu then said: "Your Majesty guessed right, Liu Xiahui's original name was Zhanhuo! Hui, the world called Liu Xiahui!

From my point of view, this matter was mostly fabricated by later generations. Liu Xiahui is a doctor, so how could there be no one to follow and protect him, and it was not a war, so why did he go out at night in the wilderness. "

Everything is without scrutiny, Liu Xiahui's matter is a bit nonsense, Liu Xie was having a good time talking, turned around, and then found that the second daughter of Cai Yan was gone, and couldn't help but let out a light sigh: "Miss Cai's family!"

"Your Majesty! When you mentioned the three great families in Hedong just now, Miss Cai and Miss Xiaohuan went back to the carriage." said Hong Nan, the captain of the guards.

Wei family!After hearing this, Liu Xie stared at the carriage thoughtfully.

The next day!

Liu Xie asked people to lead the way to see the iron mines. Originally, Yang Feng and Bai Bo wanted to stop them, but Liu Xie's tone was tough, and the four of them could not force them, so they could only obey.

Liu Xie took people to find the iron mine, and the four of them gathered together to start a dirty meeting.

"The Son of Heaven is becoming more and more powerful, which is not good for us!"

"That's right! He really treats us as servants and servants. He can stop and leave when he wants to."

"Let him play for a few days now. When we arrive in Anyi, he can't control everything. Let's discuss what kind of title he will give him as a general. First of all, His Majesty promised me that I will be a general. You can think about it." No." Yang Feng was arrogant, and he regarded himself as a first-rate meritorious official.

This time the emperor returned to the east, but he put in a lot of effort, suffered the most losses, and made the most contributions.

The three of them looked at Yang Feng, and then looked at each other. They all saw a trace of dissatisfaction in each other's eyes. Yang Feng is a general, and this is the highest rank among the military officers. This does not mean that Yang Feng is a head higher than them. what!

"I want General Hussars! I also want Captain Sili and the county magistrate," Han Xian said.

Yang Feng wanted the big general, at least he couldn't lose his qualifications, and he wanted the second Hussar general. The four generals are actually false officials, useful in wartime, and they will be taken back as soon as the war stops. They have no military power.

So he took another official position with real power to supervise the capital and supervision, so that he was on the same level as Yang Feng.

Hu Cai saw that Han Siam was so shameless, and then said: "Then I want to ride a general! At least I have to be a villager."

Li Le couldn't help but slander, you guys acted so fast and didn't discuss it, so he had no choice but to say: "Then I'll be General Wei, not lower than Xianghou."

Yang Feng's face twitched involuntarily, you're all so shameless, you're all General Hussars, Generals Chariots, and Generals Wei, and I still have a P for my great general.

The most unbearable thing is that each of you county magistrates, township magistrates, and Lao Tzu don't even have titles.
