The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 184 Zhao Yun: I beat him up

In the summer of the fourth year of Jian'an (199), it was rare for the princes of the world to stop fighting.

In the land of Hebei in summer, the wind is a little noisy.

Like the newly-built naval army, Cheng Yuanzhi's mind is temporarily put on sorting out internal relations, and he keeps practicing every day.

The same thing is that both sides swim in the water and fight on the waves.

The difference is that the former is on Xuanwu Lake, while he is employed in the inner courtyard of the General's Mansion.

Many affairs in Hebei are managed by Shenpei, Xun Yu, Jushou and others. Cheng Yuanzhi only needs to eat and sleep, sleep and eat, and take time to understand the general strategy.

In the end, Cheng Yuanzhi still failed to accept Mrs. Du, but gave him to Sugai, who would light up his eyes and scratch his head when he saw Mrs. Du.

It's not that Du Shi is not beautiful, nor is it that Cheng Yuanzhi doesn't like her.

Cheng Yuanzhi liked Du so much that he grabbed Du's little hand and dragged her to the house on the spot, wanting to have a long and thorough talk with her.

Sympathy for the suffering of women under medical treatment has always been Cheng Yuanzhi's unswerving motto.

But it didn't work out.

Zhen Mi is here.

Just a moment after Mrs. Du arrived, Zhen Mi's carriage also arrived.

She stepped down from the carriage gracefully and gracefully. The first time she saw Mrs. Du, her pretty face changed color, her delicate emerald eyebrows were slightly raised, and her soft eyes were full of hostility.

Just looking at Zhen Mi, Du Shi lowered his head in inferiority, put his hands neatly on his lower abdomen, and dared not raise his head like a maid.

Cheng Yuanzhi was well aware of the power of Zhen Mi, a jealous little man. For the sake of harmony in the harem, he had no choice but to wave his hand and reluctantly part ways with her, signaling that Su should quickly take Du away.

Soggy's excited snot bubbles came out, and he put Du Shi on the horse's back on the spot, jumped on the horse's back in a hurry, hugged Du Shi, and galloped away.

If it weren't for the crowds here, Cheng Yuanzhi suspected that this guy would run with his shoulders on his shoulders.

"Is something wrong with you?"

Cheng Yuanzhi withdrew his gaze regretfully, clicked his tongue, looked at Zhen Mi, and asked her why she came.

According to the customs of the big man at this time, wives who have never been in the house are absolutely not allowed to visit their husband's house.

This means a big faux pas, which will be looked down upon by the husband's family.

Zhen Mi whispered: "I came to visit my four sisters on my mother's order."

Didn't you come to see me? Cheng Yuanzhi said "oh", took her into the mansion, found a room in the backyard and settled it, then hurried to arrange flowers.

I thought to myself that she would be leaving after staying for a few days anyway, so there was no need for such grand arrangements.What matters is the more than 100 beautiful wives and concubines that I married back then.

In a blink of an eye, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Cheng Yuanzhi was exhausted. When he looked up, Zhen Mi hadn't left yet.

In fact, since she moved into the General's Mansion, Zhen Mi hasn't moved out of her nest, and has been acting like a hostess all day long.

The most outrageous thing is that everyone in the house thinks this move is natural, including Cai Yan, who has been the mistress for seven or eight years.

Zhen Mi is born with a special aura, no matter where she goes, she will always be the focus of everyone, as long as she is a woman, she will be dwarfed by her and covered by her aura.

It has nothing to do with the size of the breasts, whether the clothes are gorgeous or not, or whether the body is enchanting or not.

When everyone looked at Zhen Mi, they would involuntarily cast their eyes on her face.

When she is gentle, she is delicate and soft, and she is gorgeous for a while, which is very pleasing.

When he straightens his face, he immediately becomes calm and confident, and there is an undeniable sense of sharpness just by looking at his face.

From shy to aggressive, she can switch seamlessly in an instant.

Thus, the aura is emitted from the inside out.

The gas field is something that everyone can feel.

Take Xiaobai for example. In the past, Cheng Yuanzhi couldn't tell the size of two people without taking off his pants—this refers to age.

Because Dabai has a birthmark on his butt, Xiaobai doesn't.

Now, even without taking off his pants, Cheng Yuanzhi can easily tell who is older and who is younger - this refers to age.

Since the two of them were ten years old, their temperaments began to extend in two completely different directions. Dabai became more stable and dignified, and he was serious and serious in everything he did.

Xiaobai goes farther and farther on the road of being naughty, lively and eccentric.

Therefore, some people are born kings, no matter whether she (he) appears sooner or later, the position that belongs to her (him) cannot be taken away by others.Even if it is taken away, it must be released.

Closer to home.

Zhen Mi's behavior made it clear that she was not here to visit her sister, but to urge her marriage.

Cheng Yuanzhi thought for a while, and readily arranged the wedding for the end of this year.

No one would refuse to have such an alluring wife.

Women's obsession with weddings is like when a man buys a car, he likes to get in the car to see if it works well before giving money.

Stubborn to stiff.

On the one hand, they were not allowed to test drive or paid, and on the other hand, they refused any non-violent touching or probing before the wedding.

As for violent temptations - women's strength is limited after all.

So Cheng Yuanzhi didn't make Zhen Mi wait too long.

After arranging all this, he calmed down and began to think seriously about the Hebei issue.

Before I knew it, it had been nine years since I took control of Hebei.

The three prefectures of Jizhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou are peaceful, and the people are getting richer.

Several other states, fresh out of the war, are struggling to recover.

In the past few years, thanks to the harmony between the government and the people, the land property has increased dramatically, and the population of Hebei has grown extremely fast.

On the streets of Yecheng, children of five or six years old can be seen everywhere, with their braids upturned and their little sparrows showing, playing and scurrying around.

Officials at all levels in the General's Mansion and officials in various counties are busy with calculating taxes, population statistics, and trivial matters of people's livelihood all day long.

To the north of the Yellow River, everywhere is bustling and noisy.

The barbarian raids that used to happen every winter have all disappeared.

The barbarian also sees what people order.

In the past, the main reason why they dared to violate the border repeatedly was not that there was no food, but that the local officials in charge were cowardly and easy to bully.

In this way, the Hu people felt that they were idle anyway, so why not loot and treat it as a sightseeing tour, and by the way, they could snatch some beautiful women back to warm their beds.

Later, the ruler was replaced by Gongsun Zan, the "little Hu killer". The Hu people were afraid of being killed, so they restrained themselves for a while, dreaming of helping Liu Yu fight against Gongsun Zan, and then they could continue to act recklessly.

Unexpectedly, after defeating Gongsun Zan, the Hu people did not look forward to a better tomorrow, but to a disaster, the "Hu Daren" Cheng Yuanzhi.

The barbarians panicked all of a sudden, how dare they act presumptuously?
Bingzhou Wuhuan and Southern Xiongnu, which have completely disappeared in history, are their lessons from the past.

Even the remaining Eastern Qiang was severely injured, and three-quarters of the population had been relocated. It would not take a few hundred years for them to return to their previous size.

Cheng Yuanzhi didn't care what the barbarians thought. At the moment, he was more concerned about the size of the family.

The aristocratic family is related to the continuation of the regime, so he couldn't help but not care about it.

Although the size of the aristocratic family has been greatly weakened before, the clan system is still there.

Therefore, after taking control of Hebei, Cheng Yuanzhi has been committed to two things. One is to suppress the powerful families, mainly the newly rising powerful families;

But the evil of the powerful family is a problem left over from hundreds of years of history, how can it be solved overnight?
The reason why aristocratic families are powerful is that they have the right to speak in the center of power, but in fact the economic strength behind them is the root cause.

The aristocratic family itself controls a large amount of land and population, and then relies on the intervention of the power center to directly or indirectly grab financial benefits and policy dividends.

At the same time, it continued to expand its financial base by hiding its population to avoid taxes and annexing land. It even had private armed forces for each clan, approaching the status of an independent kingdom.

For the powerful, the home is the country, and the home is before the country.

If things go on like this, it will form a sick society like the Western Jin Dynasty where there are families everywhere and no country in their hearts.

If the land and education problems are not solved fundamentally, the aristocratic family will never die.

If the formation system of this kind of aristocratic family remains unchanged, new aristocratic families will continue to emerge to take over the imperial power and carry out the next reincarnation.

This is also the basis for Sima Yi's success in usurping the throne in another time and space. It is not about how awesome his more than 3000 militiamen are - he has the support of the nobles.

He represents the will of the powerful!
With such a complicated issue, how could people in this era have thought that channels for talent promotion and land reform are the two most powerful weapons for the demise of aristocrats.

Obviously, people in this era have their own limited vision, and they can only improve various problems of the aristocratic family in other ways.

But that approach often has the opposite effect, not only getting twice the result with half the effort.

Cheng Yuanzhi is a latecomer, and he does not have this kind of cognitive impairment, so he can directly slash at the main artery of the aristocratic family.

The channel of education has been opened first!

Shangdang Academy has been in operation for 12 years and has trained countless talents.There is at least one academy like this in every prefecture in Hebei.

At the same time, the imperial examination system is also under preparation.

Today's Hebei controls a vast territory, which is basically the same as Cao Cao's territory during the Battle of Chibi in another time and space.

There are two thirds of the world-here refers to the population.

The territory may only be a little more than half.

Under such circumstances, anyone who sits on the seat of the Lord of Hebei will have ambitions!
But Cheng Yuanzhi has no ambitions, he is calm like a bystander without emotion.

Until the two major problems of border troubles and aristocratic families are completely resolved, he will not have any idea of ​​claiming to be king or emperor.

He doesn't think so, but it doesn't mean that the civil servants under his command don't think so either.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yuanzhi suddenly slapped his forehead, secretly said "Oops", and hastily called for Sugai.

For a long time, no one answered.

Cheng Yuanzhi had no choice but to call Zhao Yun and asked:

"How long has Cui Zhouping been locked up?"

"Four years, my lord." Zhao Yun replied calmly.

"Is he still alive?" Cheng Yuanzhi asked.

"I'll go take a look!"

Zhao Yun turned around and walked out quickly.

After a while, he came back and reported: "It's alive, my lord."

Fortunately... Cheng Yuanzhi heaved a sigh of relief, it’s good that he didn’t die, Cui Zhouping also worked hard,
Maybe he didn't even think that he was imprisoned for four years!
Cheng Yuanzhi asked again: "How is he doing now?"

Zhao Yun thought for a while and said: "Fortunately, I have gained a lot of weight."

Cheng Yuanzhi breathed another sigh of relief.

It seems that the food in the cell is good!
Zhao Yun added: "His eyes were a little red. When he saw me, he gritted his teeth and threw himself on me..."

A middle-aged man was imprisoned for four years, isolated from the world and from women.At this time, I am afraid that seeing a sow will make you feel good-looking... let alone you, Zhao Yun, who is such a handsome little boy.

He's right to jump on you...

Cheng Yuanzhi suppressed his laughter and continued to ask: "Did I jump on you?"

Zhao Yun's fair face suddenly turned red. He didn't seem to want to answer this question, so he just described lightly:
"I beat him up!"

Cheng Yuanzhi couldn't bear it anymore, "Kukuku" laughed.
