Chapter 141 Fiji
Chang'an City, Qiushan Square.
This is a well-known Minfang in Chang'an City, because in this Minfang lived the Fei family, known as the fourth generation and the third public, who were disciples and officials all over the world.
On weekdays, there is an endless stream of people coming and going in and out of the Fei's house. These people are not lacking in court officials, literati and writers, and even generals in the army.
There is no other reason. The Fei family is famous all over the world. Although it is not divided into one side like other aristocrats, after several dynasties, the figure of the Fei family has never disappeared in the court hall.
It is precisely because of this that the wealthy families of Dayu Kingdom are all proud of being able to marry the daughter of the Fei family, because in this way, they will gain a better reputation and their children will be able to hold their heads up in the officialdom.
After all, in the country of Great Yu, where the rich and powerful family is deeply rooted, the dignitaries are very particular about blood. Those children of the poor family who have become officials and generals from the grass have a deep sense of inferiority in front of the dignitaries. The grass chicken has become a phoenix.
Today is the day of rest, and it is rare in Fiji, the head of the Fiji family, to have a day off in a month.
The Great Yu State stipulates that officials can take one day off a month, commonly known as Xiumu. On this day, officials can either go out for fun, or visit relatives and friends.
It's just that on these days Fiji is always busier than it was in the previous dynasty. After the early morning, many officials came one after another, sent gifts and chatted with him about interesting things in the city.
"Fei Zhongshu, have you heard about the very hot newspapers in Chang'an these two days?" The person who came to visit was Luo Quan, the general of Huaihua.
Fiji was slightly surprised, "Newspaper? What is this, but have you never heard of it?"
Unlike others, Luo Quan has always had a good relationship with Fiji. Every time he comes to see him, he is just to talk about the affairs of the court, not as impure as others.
Therefore, every time Fiji did not want to see guests, it said that General Luo Quan was in the house.
Everyone knows Luo Quan's fiery temper in Chang'an City. Those officials learned that Luo Quan was in the mansion, and they would know their interests and stop bothering them.
"This newspaper is from the hands of King Qi. It was originally only circulated in Qingzhou, but this time it was spread to Chang'an. Do you know why?"
"King Qi?"
Fiji's expression was a little strange. Xiao Wenxuan summoned him alone a few days ago. He didn't ask about the government, but asked his youngest daughter, Fei Yue'er, how she is doing today and so on.
Having been in the officialdom for decades, Fiji, who had assisted two generations of emperors, understood Xiao Wenxuan's intentions at a moment's notice. It was estimated that he wanted to propose a marriage for the prince.
But now among the princes, the prince married her eldest daughter, and the other princes also had concubines. It was impossible for Xiao Wenxuan to let the daughter of his Fei family be a concubine.
Thinking of it this way, there is only one King Qi who has not yet married.
At that time, when I figured it out, Fiji only dealt with it a few words, and Xiao Wenxuan seemed to be just probing and didn't ask any more questions.
But since then when King Qi was mentioned, he became somewhat vigilant.
This Fei Yue'er is his youngest daughter and his most beloved daughter. She has been frail and sick since she was a child, but she is extremely intelligent.
Every time I see her, Fiji can always think of the figure of his deceased wife, because he loves this daughter more and more.
It is precisely because of this that Fiji never wanted to let Fei Yue marry someone else.
Luo Quan didn't notice the change in Fiji's expression, and continued: "Exactly, a few days ago, I sent my dog Luo Xin to Qingzhou, hoping to help King Qi, but I didn't expect that this bastard would cause trouble just after he went to Qingzhou. This incident."
With that said, Luo Quan took out a newspaper from his arms and said in pain, "These profiteers really changed their minds. A newspaper even sold for ten taels of silver."
The moment Fiji saw the newspaper, his eyes lit up. He quickly took the newspaper from Luo Quan and was deeply attracted by its content.
"I heard that this King Qi's behavior is different from ordinary people. When I saw this newspaper today, it really is. It's just that people can come up with the decree on it." Fiji said while watching.
Luo Quan said, "Maybe this is what Pang Yukun did. He was unhappy when he was in Chang'an, but he was quite talented."
"I understand Pang Yukun, he has knowledge, but he has always been rigid and rigid, and he would never propose such a strange decree to King Qi." Fiji said.
Then he continued to look down and saw an interesting story in the army, which was the story of Luo Xin and the local defender Lu Fei, he suddenly laughed, "General Luo, you see what I said is right, Luo Xin. When you arrive in Qingzhou, you may not be able to stay. Now, the Qingzhou rich family is out of ten, and King Qi relies on the children of the poor family. Those people naturally can't bear the shortcomings of Luo Xin."
Luo Quan said angrily: "This bastard, I specially told him to be patient, this time is just for the sake of the family and the country, hey, doesn't this make King Qi laugh at our Luo family? But you continue to look down, this Qi Wang is very capable, but just one poem left my bastard behind."
The smile on Fiji's face disappeared at this time, "Qin is the bright moon and the Han Dynasty is close, and the people on the Long March have not returned, but the Dragon City will be here, and I will not teach Huma to cross the Yin Mountain, wonderful!"
Reading this, Fiji applauded and looked excited.
Luo Quan said with a smile: "When I read this poem, I only felt that my blood was boiling in my heart, and I could not wait to fight against the barbarians, so as to solve the hatred in my heart. My children of the Han family have been bullied by foreigners for many years, when will they be able to be like this? The great Han generally marched from the south to the north, so that the barbarians would not dare to cross the Yin Mountain from now on.”
At the court that day, Fiji neither agreed nor opposed it.
The Fei family can continue to this day, naturally because it can accurately see the struggle above the court, and the most important point is that the Fei family never participates in party disputes.
Because of this, the emperors of all dynasties will always be at ease with the Fei family.
So from the very beginning, he understood that no matter how much quarrel, it was useless, the royal family was declining, and now he could only rely on a different surnamed king to guard the northern gateway. The barbarians were powerful and everyone was afraid.
It's just that, like Luo Quan, he also hopes that the Great Yu Kingdom can jointly resist the barbarians, but this is only his idea. He is very aware that under the current situation, it is already impossible.
"I didn't expect that the stubborn King Qi in Chang'an City would still have such literary talent. It's rare, rare, hey, I just hope that King Qi can stop the barbarians from going south. In this way, the Great Yu Kingdom can still be saved, otherwise the Great Yu Kingdom will be saved. The sunset is a foregone conclusion." Fiji shook his head and sighed.
Luo Quan said displeased: "Why does Fei Zhongshu say such depressing words? Even if King Qi can't stop the barbarians, there are still me, Luo Quan and the forbidden army."
"Hmph, General Luo's thinking is too simple. If the barbarians succeed in going south, there will only be one King Yong left in this royal family. From then on, the situation of equal power between the royal family and the different surnamed vassals will be broken. The beginning of the turmoil in Yu."
