Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 72: Meet Wei Ju for the first time

I wish you all a happy Dragon Boat Festival. In July, we will also make rice dumplings, so the next update will be in the evening.

……

"Wei Ju!?"

After half a year of hard work, Zhao Wuxi basically knew what Liu Qing's descendants were, whether they were direct descendants or concubines, and what their names were.

Wei Ju is the head of the Wei family, the direct son of Wei Manduo, who is in the army.

There was a hint of shock in Wu Xie's heart, and there was also some excitement. If he guessed correctly, this one was probably the protagonist who was in charge of the Wei family when the three families divided Jin.

Of course, he is also Zhao Wuxi's future opponent!

Or, are they also friends?

He immediately smiled, and returned the salute to Wei Ju, "I have seen Shixiong, and I have long admired the name of Wei's Qianli Ju..."

The two of them had their own thoughts, but on the bright side, they made a friendly gesture and held hands to greet each other intimately.

The hand-holding ceremony has existed since ancient times, but it cannot be used in formal occasions. It can only be used between teachers, students and friends who have close personal acquaintances. In the face of each other's earnest hand-holding, if they refuse, it will be a disgrace. When Zhao Wuxi and Wei Ju first met, they acted so intimately. In fact, it was a sign that both sides had ghosts in their hearts.

So, with smiles on their faces, the hands they held together became harder and harder.

Wei Ju had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and seemed to be honest and honest, but Zhao Wuxi did not relax his vigilance for him.

Not to mention that there is a relationship with Wei Ji.

In the original history, during the Battle of Jinyang Siege, Zhi Zhao Liangqing, who ranked first and second in strength in the state of Jin, fought to the death, but this was also a trick for the less powerful Han and Wei to lead the way. And the result is also the same. Although Zhao Xiangzi won the final victory, his strength was greatly damaged, and the Wei family did not hurt his bones. After the war, he was allocated the most land and population, and became the head of the Three Jin Dynasty.

Wu Xie secretly said: "Small sample, do you think someone who looks loyal and tall is a sincere person? Hmph, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger can't hide the truth of history from me, oh, this guy has a lot of strength in his hands..."

Wei Ju heard a message from his aunt Wei Ji that Zhao Wuxi had come to Xinjiang, and he made a special trip to wait this morning. One is because he is very curious about this son, and the other is because the Zhao and Wei families have always been friendly, and there have been many marriages. Although the current political views of the two families are different, and the Wei family is fluctuating between Zhao and Zhi, their private exchanges have not been affected.

He was also observing Wu Xie, and saw that his appearance was plain, and there was nothing strange in his speech, just like what his cousin Zhao Zhongxin described, it seemed that he was only a middle-aged person.

Wei Ju couldn't help being slightly disappointed, but then he became vigilant again.

Can a mediocre generation destroy a village clan that has been rooted for a hundred years in a short period of time like a thunderbolt, and implement the far-sighted "stop from death" method?

"Hmph, 80% of the time it's like me, deliberately hiding your clumsiness. You can't hide it from this gentleman, sigh, this boy doesn't look very strong, but how can he be so strong..."

The two were in pain, and they released their hands in unison.

After the first round of testing, Wei Ju had a simple and honest smile on his face: "Ju is here today, but he wants to lead Shidi to the public school."

"It turns out that there is Brother Lao Shi."

Under the guidance of the Wei family, the group went to the Pan Palace in the northern suburbs. They saw the carriages of the Zhao and Wei families running side by side.

While listening to Wei Ju's introduction to the customs of Xinjiang, Zhao Wuxi secretly recalled the history of the Wei family in his heart.

In later generations, when talking about the division of Jin by three families, they always thought that three different surnamed Qing clans divided up the state of Jin, but this is not the case. Except for Zhao's Ying surname, Han and Wei's are both Ji surnames.

The ancestor of the Wei family, Bi Wan, was a descendant of Bi Gonggao, the younger brother of King Wu of Zhou, who entered Jin after the fall of the state of Bi. Bi Wan was originally just a "personal husband". Because of his achievements in destroying Geng, Huo and Wei with Duke Xian of Jin, Duke Xian of Jin gave Bi Wan the land of Wei and appointed him as a doctor, henceforth called Wei Shi.

Speaking of which, the ancestor of the Zhao family, Zhao Su (su), also got into the first fief in Jin during the war, and made a fortune since then.

In the second generation, Zhao Shuai and Wei Wei followed Duke Wen of Chong'er's side as "brachial" and "minions", respectively, and went into exile.

Although Zhao Wei started at the same time, his fate was different later. The Zhao family came out with a "Winter Sun" Zhao Shuai, and a "Summer Sun" Zhao Dun, who went all the way up, named Jin Qing, who specialized in Jin State. .

However, the Wei family was punished by Duke Wen for not obeying the military orders and neglecting his duties. Although he saved his life, he also lost his good position on the right side of the monarch's car and was sent back to the fief. In the next few generations, although Wei Shouyu, Wei Ke, Wei Qi and other virtuous doctors, such as Wei Shouyu, Wei Ke, Wei Qi, etc., have been lingering in the middle reaches, they have not been promoted to ministerial positions until the Duke Mourning of Jin relied on Wei Xiang and Wei Wei. Jiang Weiqing only got better.

As a result, when the fifth generation of Wei Shu came to power, the Wei family finally became the ruler of Jin, and became the last family to reach the top among the six officials.

Recalling the history of the Wei family, Zhao Wuxi couldn't help sighing when he looked at Wei Ju, a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

Not only the Zhao clan, but every clan among the six nobles has a legend of its own!

During the passage through the alleys under the tall city walls of the inner palace, Wu Xie looked up at the mottled and tall walls, and could vaguely see the red ying on top of the top of the guards in the black-clothed palace of Jin.

His prospective father-in-law, Le Qi, should be placed under house arrest here.

Shortly after walking, he left the inner palace and entered the sparsely populated northern suburbs, where the School of Gongzu was established, also known as the Pan Palace.

"The university is located in the suburbs". Similar to Zhou Tianzi's "Biyong", Pangong Public School is the highest institution of education in the Jin state, and it is also a place where various ritual and music activities such as sacrifices and celebrations are held on time.

Unlike Piyong, which is surrounded by water on all sides, the center of Pan Palace is a high-rise building, and it is only surrounded by water on three sides. As the saying goes, "Pan's words are half-hearted, half-water, and the east and west gates are connected to water in the south, and there is nothing in the north."

The new Jiangpan Palace draws the water from the Fen River as natural living water, and it is recessed inward to form the Panchi.

Pangong teaches classes on the first and fifteenth days of every month, and closes the rest of the time.

Before he came, Zhao Wuxi also thought in secret that he only had two days of classes this month, was that enough? This is going to be released from the previous life, and the students will not be crazy with joy.

It was Ji Qiao who answered his doubts: "The gentleman thinks that the children of Dr. Qing are really going to the public school for the sake of studying? That's wrong, which clan does not have its own teacher, teacher, and guardian room today? If you really want to learn, it is enough to stay at home. , why did you make a special trip to Xinjiang?"

It turns out that since the Yin and Zhou dynasties, academics and education have been controlled by the government, and the state has written laws and regulations, classics and documents, and ritual utensils for sacrificial ceremonies. Only the nobles have the opportunity to receive education, and the commoners cannot enter the school gate.

But slowly, the situation changed. First, many aristocratic clans declined, and they "descended to Zaoli" one after another. They also brought knowledge to the people, which led to the rise of the scholar class. And many aristocrats were illiterate and ignorant, and there was a situation of "meat eaters contempt", so education began to move downward, and private schools came into being. The most famous one was Confucius in the State of Lu, and the masters and teachers hired by the Qing clans themselves were considered a kind of family learning.

Therefore, the main role of Pangong Public School today is to be a place for the children of the Qing clan to communicate and get acquainted. In other words, this is the paty of the nobles, which is held twice a month. The children of Qing will meet friends in the future political arena and compete with enemies, which is equivalent to a miniature version of the imperial court of Jin.

If nothing happens, Zhao Wuxi will be living a two-point and one-line life for the next half a year. He will come to Xinjiangpan Palace two days a month, and return to Chengyi to build his territory the rest of the time.

Of course, when he came to the city without a shirt, he wanted to do more than this. He already has a plan in his heart, but everything is ready, and he still owes Dongfeng, and that Dongfeng must come to this new river to find it.

……

PS: Wikipedia says that before the Qin and Han Dynasties, handshakes were mostly only between lovers, but it wasn't. For example, in the Analects of Confucius, there is "Bai Niu is sick and wants to die, Confucius sighs". During the Warring States Period, there were also "the ministers tried to meet the king and the king of Yan, and the king of Yan privately shook the hands of the ministers, saying, "I would like to make friends."
