Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 297 Sit down and talk

   Fei Min's retreat also made Fei Qian heave a sigh of relief.

On the negotiating table, this is always the case. Whoever can't help but talk about the business first means that he will be at a psychological disadvantage. Fei Min no longer continues to circle around, but is ready to talk about the current situation, which is more or less for Fei Qian an acknowledgment.

When Fei Qian just returned to Luoyang, he tried to communicate with Fei Min once, but that time was a failure, because Fei Min still regarded Fei Qian as a chess piece that could be used, and even They all revealed the meaning that Fei Qian could be abandoned.

  But now, although Fei Min didn't say that he was convinced or said anything else, at least he has the posture of sitting down and talking on an equal footing.

Before Fei Qian, no matter how bad Fei Min’s attitude was, even greedy enough to seize the relics belonging to Fei Qian’s father, he still kept a humble attitude as much as possible, and did not have a direct conflict with the Fei family. The most important factor was The Han Dynasty was an era when the gentry controlled most of the right to speak.

In the early Han Dynasty, Liu Bang mixed a lot of sand in order to eliminate the old princes and nobles with blood theory left over from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and entrusted many princes. The six great lords that existed during the period, namely the Zhao family, the Han family, the Wei family, the Zhi family, the Fan family, and the Zhongxing family, did not expect that these newly entrusted clan princes would become new cancers.

Because these princes had great power at the beginning of the Han Dynasty, with independent judicial power, political power, and military power, and even the currency could be minted by themselves. Schools, Strategists, Miscellaneous Schools, etc. are attached to it, competing with each other for their own interests, and some even encourage King Liu to rebel...

Because these people all know what kind of person the real Liu Bang is, and what the so-called killing of the white snake in Mangdang Mountain is all about. Since Liu Bang can have the opportunity to become emperor, and Zhang Liang and Chen Ping under him enjoy the incense, then why I can't wait?

During the period of Emperor Han Jing and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in order to control the clan princes who were gradually becoming too big, and also to maintain the imperial power, the father and son carried out a series of measures, because at that time the prince Liu Rong failed to meet the requirements of Emperor Han Jing, and Emperor Han Jing even did not hesitate to use A very ridiculous crime killed Liu Rong, paving the way for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che to become emperor.

  However, what Emperor Han Jing and Emperor Wu of the Han did not expect was that through various means, the elimination of the old Liuqing who remained in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods allowed more small families to develop. Originally thought that suppressing the schools of Legalism, Strategists, Miscellaneous Schools, etc., and leaving a Confucianism that preached that the emperor is the Son of Heaven would be more conducive to the rule of the central government, but I did not expect that Dong Zhongshu’s so-called Confucianism actually stole the Legalism, It was constructed by some main ideas and literature of strategists and miscellaneous scholars. On the one hand, it promoted the divine gift of the emperor, and on the other hand, it mixed a lot of private goods to limit the unlimited expansion of imperial power.

  The most typical example is the so-called induction between heaven and man. The disasters from heaven are warnings to the emperor’s immorality...

After more than three hundred years, until now, the new gentry who grew up under the banner of Confucianism controlled the government affairs of the entire empire, formed a huge community of interests, and had a relatively complete set of value system concepts, which were shared by the entire gentry. Followed subconsciously.

It's like if Fei Qian was still in a side branch and unknown at the beginning, he would brazenly oppose the head of the Fei family. Although the head of the family, Fei Min, may not impose any punishment on Fei Qian, as long as it is spread, all gentry People will intentionally or unintentionally avoid this person with bad conduct, and all doors to development will be closed.

   Just like some people who are refrigerated in some aristocratic families now, they have no other way but to live in seclusion.

But now it is not the same, Fei Qian is not only a branch of the Fei family, but also the son-in-law of the Jingxiang Huang family, and to a certain extent can also be a representative of the Jingxiang gentry, so there are some issues with Feimin. The confrontation has become a normal conflict of interests between the gentry and the gentry, and has nothing to do with things like morality.

This is also the main reason why Fei Min finally gave up on continuing to use family affection or the status of the head of the family to exert pressure, because now for Fei Qian, the support of the Fei family is not the most important thing. …

  Of course, having said that, if you can get the support of the Fei family, no matter how much your strength increases, at least in terms of public opinion, Fei Min will come forward to defend and build momentum.

  The aristocratic families were the driving force for the progress of the Han Dynasty, and they were also the resistance...

  Fei Qian put his hands on his knees and did not answer immediately. After a long silence, he said, "Now the situation is confusing, and Qian doesn't know, or maybe there is chaos, but it will be solved soon?"

   This sentence was what Fei Min took for granted when Fei Qian visited last time. Bringing up the old story of Fei Qian is not only to test Fei Min's current attitude, but more importantly, to disrupt the steps...

   Fei Min was robbed of a sentence by Fei Qian, somewhat unhappy, and said: "Nephew, I am sincere, why are you making jokes?"

   "Uncle please forgive me for being abrupt. I don't know if there was someone from Yuan's residence before?"

  Fei Min blinked, stroked his beard again and again, apparently considering whether to speak, but finally made up his mind, and said, "It's exactly...Tai Fu's previous visit."

   "But there is no mention of the Hangu Yellow Turban at all, only the turmoil in the court, and the need to work together to help the country?"

   Fei Min stared at Fei Qian for a while, and then said: "Exactly."

  Of course, there are some hints of being promoted after the country is stabilized. The two of you don't need to talk about this kind of thing, everyone knows it.

Naturally, Tai Fuyu would not be so idiotic as to tell Fei Min to shut up Fei Qian, what should be said and what should not be said. In their view, to make such a gesture, everyone understands, and there is no special need at all. illustrate.

   Fei Qian sighed and said, "Uncle, do you know why Li Changshi didn't send anyone?"

   "Li Changshi?" Of course Fei Min knew who this Changshi was referring to, and he mused while pinching his beard, his eyes rolling wildly.

As the patriarch of a gentry family, although He Luofei's family is not very big, apart from needing to read scriptures and have certain cultural attainments, he is not a stupid person. After Fei Qian said it, he also understood Fei Qian's mean.

  Why didn’t Li Ru send someone? First, he didn’t expect it, and second, he didn’t care at all...

   And Li Ru's behavior may be unexpected?

   Obviously not, so I can only explain one thing. Li Ru didn't even think about making any fuss about whether this Hangu is a yellow scarf.

   It also shows from another aspect that the Yuan Mansion can't hold back now...

Among the gentry, there are many people who have been imprisoned all their lives because of conflicts between their ideas and their families... The Han Dynasty was an era that paid attention to prestige. At the beginning, Liu Bei had no seat and could only bring his own horse. After being recognized by Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty in the later stage, it was really shaken...
