Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 1465 A business inherited for thousands of years

   Read Chang'an, go to Chang'an.

   As a political, economic and cultural center, or even a national capital, Chang'an still has considerable advantages. At least at this stage, Chang'an is much better than Pingyang.

The process of Sichuan and Shu was much faster than Fei Qian expected, so Fei Qian began to transfer the entire political center to Guanzhong. As the first batch of government officials began to operate in Chang'an, Fei Qian naturally needed to go to Chang'an is in charge.

  At this time, Fei Qian missed the transportation of later generations. Even if there is no plane, the high-speed rail is quite comfortable. However, now, Fei Qian's choice is only to choose whether to bump on the horse's back or shake in the carriage, there is no other way.

Huang Yueying didn't follow, because the child was still young, especially in the Han Dynasty, when the sanitation and medical conditions were not good, if the child traveled long distances, as long as the water and soil were not acclimatized, it might be fatal, so he could only stay in Pingyang and wait for the child to grow up. Sometimes it is time to consider changing places.

  Cai Yan...

   Fei Qian couldn't help but smiled wryly.

  When young women in literature and art feel that they want to realize their own value in life, the kind of crazy struggle is really impressive. Cai Yan is now basically immersed in the scriptures and sentences, and almost all his thoughts are placed on the bamboo slips and wooden slips. Even Feiqian went to Pingyang Academy to give a lecture, but it was just a hasty meeting, so there was nothing wrong with it. The idea of ​​following Feiqian to Guanzhong.

   Is this a kind of cocooning?

   Or in Cai Yan’s heart, the scriptures are actually the most important thing?

Maybe…

  Fei Qian raised his head and looked in the direction of Pingyang. After a moment of silence, he turned around and waved his hand, "Let's go!"

  ………………

   "It is said that the general who conquered the west will come to Chang'an recently?" Someone whispered in the upstairs lounge of the Huajue Building, which immediately aroused a burst of discussion.

  Kai Jue Lou is a newly opened restaurant in Chang'an. Perhaps it is the different habits of different places. Most of the taverns and restaurants in Chang'an use a certain building. The so-called "juejue" means that they are very good at cooking meat dishes, especially yusheng, which is even more wonderful. When the silk fish meat is placed on the black pottery plate, it is decorated with flower petals, which is simply a great visual enjoyment.

   Therefore, it was not long before the building was opened, and it was naturally accepted by the people of Chang'an. There are often people here for banquets, and even overcrowded. The first floor is a hall with walls and walls, suitable for both winter and summer. The second and third floors are a half-brick and half-timber structure built with wooden planks and wall bricks, separated by screens one by one, making it a relatively private place, and naturally it has become a favorite place for many gentry children.

This year, it is not an easy task to hold a banquet. Not only must there be a hall at home where you can visit the banquet, but also some singers and dancers kept at home to add to the fun. What to buy is actually very wordy, so many children of the gentry, in order to welcome them and send them off, and also for the sake of simplicity, they chose to entertain guests in restaurants.

The wine shops in the Spring and Autumn and Han Dynasties did not pay much attention to privacy. Although there are screens to block them, they are still semi-open rooms. There are some huge wooden pillars running through the first to third floors in the room. There are two wide passages in the middle and a wide passage in the middle. You can also invite maiko dancers. On both sides are wooden platforms a little higher than the ground. There are mats on the platform, and there are a dozen short-legged tables. When guests drink here, there are one table for each person, or two or three people, or four or five people. , Adjust the position of the screen according to the number of people, and then sit according to the table, push the cup and change the cup.

You can bring your own maiko, or you can invite the hotel before the banquet. At this time, there are some groups that make a living by performing songs and dances. Most of these groups are voluntary groups. Fame and popularity are distributed according to the ratio agreed in advance. If a kabuki performer is favored by a guest and voluntarily has fun with him, then the capital of the kabuki will belong to the individual, which is fair to say.

   This is an ancient profession, most of which are filled by women, of course, there are also some men, and when there are men among them, some people are even more popular than ordinary women.

Today was Li Guan's treat, and the owner of the Lou Juelou invited him the more famous kabuki troupe in Chang'an City. The sound of musical instruments, and a few screens were specially erected in the corner of the second floor, so that Kabuki can change their costumes behind the screens. In the hall, some well-dressed gentry children were already sitting, chatting and laughing with each other.

The people sitting at the moment are all the children of small families, such as the Webster and Du families, usually they will not come to participate in gatherings of a level like Li Guan, even if they really want to save face, they usually come and go in a hurry. It's just showing their faces, and those who seem to be sitting from the beginning to the end are generally ordinary nobles like Li Guan.

Li Guan originally broke his family because of the military chaos, and then resolutely defected to Zhengxi, followed Zhengxi to attack Hanzhong, and then stayed in Hanzhong for nearly a year, and finally couldn't forget the obsession of revitalizing the family in Guanzhong again, so he I begged Zhengxi to be transferred back to Guanzhong, and served as a Congcao in Chang'an, and started to build my own network of relationships, looking forward to returning to the family one day.

Hearing that someone started to talk about the west during the meeting, everyone abandoned the original topic and started talking about things related to Zhengxi. After all, General Zhengxi is in the limelight at this stage. After annexing Hongnong, he defeated Yuan Shao , it has become a princely power that attracts the attention of the world in one leap, and people have to admire it...

Li Guan laughed and said: "If you talk about the lord, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a versatile man in both civil and military affairs! He has made great military achievements, and he is not talking about guarding the border. It is rare that he is benevolent, loyal, compassionate and caring for the people. If you talk about ordinary officials, Everywhere I go, I can't wait for the yellow sand to spread on the ground, and the officials will come out to welcome... However, General Zhengxi specially passed on a letter to avoid everything! In order not to disturb the people's livelihood..."

If it was Fei Qian who said this to the other prefects, the other prefects might have wondered whether they should understand something the other way around, but now Pang Tong is in Chang'an, so Pang Tong really ordered that there is no need to prepare any welcoming ceremony , It’s just and right to say that Guanzhong is under the jurisdiction of Zhengxi, and wherever Zhengxi goes, it’s the same as home. Isn’t it a part of life to engage in any ceremony?

  So although Li Guan and others knew that General Zhengxi would come to Chang'an, no matter whether it was an official or a gentry in Chang'an, there was no drama to welcome them from ten miles away, and they still did what they had to do.

In the corner of the second floor, a man of half age was sitting, followed by two guards. After listening to the words of Li Guan and the others behind the screen in the hall, his expression was solemn. For the meal money, I went downstairs with the guards.

Li Guan was talking loudly when he saw someone coming downstairs. Although he was not within the scope of his invitation, he glanced at him casually, and then he seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember anything for a while, and was interrupted by the person next to him. Just put this matter aside, called the singing and dancing, laughed and drank...

  The half-children who went downstairs came out of Huajuelou, frowning and walking forward. The guard at the side was half a step behind, and after walking for a while, he suddenly whispered: "If Zhengxi came with a light car, what should we do?"

The half-grown boy seemed to be comforting the guards, and he seemed to be comforting himself, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, don't worry... There are always flaws... And, if Zhengxi really came on Qingqi, it might be our chance ..."

  ………………

  On the fifth day of the sixth lunar month, General Fei Qian arrived in Chang'an City.

Although General Fei Qian of Zhengxi explained that there is no need for any welcome ceremony, but if there is no big scene that wastes people and money, there are still proper etiquettes. Help the big and small officials, go out of the city gate, and go out of the city.

  Pang Tong is still young, but after all, he was born in the Jingxiang family, and his political skills are actually not bad. After being underestimated in the early stage, he set up a trap and recruited a lot. When the billowing heads became exhausted into Beijing, many people did not dare to underestimate this young sheriff.

  Although he is still a county magistrate in name, most people know that it is only because Pang Tong is too young that he uses the word "false". After a few years, he will become a regular.

  Before Yuan Shao marched ferociously, and Chang'an was also a bit distracted. As a result, Pang Tong acted vigorously, and arrested some noisy gentry children, ransacked their homes and beheaded them, and immediately suppressed the restlessness in Chang'an.

Of course, with Pang Tong's political index, it will definitely not come true, and the selected candidate is just right, neither too small to be ignored, nor too much trouble, just like a cut off A few twigs, although painful, will not turn violent, and it can be regarded as a small victory in the struggle in Chang'an.

  Pang Tong saw Zhengxi's flag protruding from a distance, and he laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes, and hurried up to meet it.

   When Fei Qian saw Pang Tong, he couldn't help being taken aback.

In Fei Qian's previous impression, Pang Tong was a black boy, with the appearance of a hairless chick, which fit perfectly with the nickname Mr. Shui Jing gave him. I don't know if Mr. Shui Jing was praising Pang Tong or hurting him. Pang Tong...

But looking at it today, it may be that the time interval has been longer, Pang Tong has grown a lot, or maybe the food is good, and his body has changed from the previous thin and short black man to the current black and fat man, um, although Not too fat, but the double chin under Pang Tong's black face shows his future development direction.

"Hi!" Fei Qian patted Pang Tong on the shoulder, and then patted his stomach, jokingly said in a low voice, "I really wonder if you have eaten all the taxes in Chang'an... just look at it." This... you can still ride a horse, it's really a pity for you..."

  Pang Tong laughed loudly, touched his fat belly and said, "This is a sign that Chang'an is stable and the people are prosperous! Why, why don't I be stronger? I have to be so thin that the wind can blow away to be called diligence?"

Fei Qian shook his head and said with a smile: "But you are not called strong... If I remember correctly, you are not yet twenty this year, right? Your stomach is coming out... If you continue like this, you must have a fatty liver ...Well, a stomach full of oil is not good for your health...Eat less fat, it is good for your health..." Now the domestic pig breeding in Pingyang has reached a considerable scale, and it has also expanded to the Chang'an area of ​​Guanzhong. The castrated pigs not only smell the meat Relatively better, and more prone to fat. For the people of the Han Dynasty, fatty meat is the favorite, and lean meat is left aside.

Pang Tong suddenly shook his head like a rattle, and said, "That's impossible! I'm just going to take this bite! Take the inch ointment, burn it on the fire, and when the surface hardens and the color is golden, apply it with honey... Hiss... Let’s not talk about it, I’ll bake it when I’m in Chang’an, I’m sure you’ll like it too!”

"Haha..." Fei Qian is also a little helpless, after all, this is the habit of the people of the Han Dynasty, just like Pang Tong, who also think why Fei Qian doesn't like to drink boiled tea soup, it is a personal hobby, and it is not easy to force, "Okay , I am waiting for you to show your skills..."

Although the officials who followed Fei Qian and Pang Tong couldn't get in the way, seeing that the relationship between Pang Tong and General Zhengxi was so harmonious, they naturally felt a lot of feelings, and they passed their eyes to each other, and then continued to follow Fei Qian and Pang Tong. Behind, a group of people slowly headed for Chang'an City.

Although there were no grandiose ceremonies, the closer to Chang'an, the more people flowed. Many people found out that General Zhengxi was coming, and they spontaneously retreated to both sides of the road, giving way to the main road in the middle. , and even some ordinary civilians knelt down on the ground, showing the greatest respect to Fei Qian, General Zhengxi...

  In the eyes of these ordinary people, no matter what the gentry officials say, they only have one very simple and simple standard, that is, life is much better than the previous Dong Zhuo era, or the later period of Li Guo and others. This is the meritorious service of Zhengxi General Fei Qian, and this is the admiration and respect they offer to Zhengxi General Fei Qian.

Although these ordinary people don't know the operation of the court, and they don't know the specific disputes between Feiqian and other princes, but for these people, as long as they can live a good life and satisfy their family's food and clothing, that is the greatest happiness .

At this time, more and more people came after hearing the news, and they were crowded along the side of the road. Among the crowd, it seemed that some people shouted the name of General Zhengxi, and then rushed forward with the things in their hands. After a bit of movement, it seems that there is really a taste of a single pot.

   Fei Qian glanced at Pang Tong.

  Pang Tong hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I didn't arrange this...really not..."

   "Haha..." Fei Qian smiled, and said, "Let's pretend it wasn't..." Then he waved his hand to let the soldiers on the side disperse a little, and let these enthusiastic people move forward.

   "What is considered to be..."

  Pang Tong was talking, when he turned his head inadvertently, he saw two or three figures standing up slightly on the abandoned kiosk beside the road...

  Pang Tong's heart was immediately pulled away from the cheerful atmosphere, and he suddenly raised his throat!

"Be careful!"

   Not only Pang Tong, but also Huang Xu who was beside Fei Qian also noticed something was wrong, and immediately sounded a warning. At the same time, he rode his horse forward and raised his shield, trying to protect Fei Qian's side!

  However, the speed of the arrow is faster than the human reaction, and the sound of the bowstring is covered by the cheers of the lively crowd!

  The next moment, the cheers outside Chang'an City seemed to be blocked by this sharp arrow at this moment, and there was no sound for a moment!
