Chapter 350 The Scholars of Xizhou (for the alliance leader Wen Tianwu Zuojia Geng)
Liang Fen was entertaining guests at home when he received the letter.
Most of the visitors were scholars from Xizhou, and the leader was Yan Ding, a former staff member of Situ, whose courtesy name was Taichen and a native of Tianshui.
After Sima Yue passed away, the trees fell and the hozens scattered, and many people left, and Yan Ding was one of them.
But he has no connections in the court, and his own family background is not very good. The court today is completely different from a few years ago, and there is really no way.
Yanshi County is located in Tianshui and Jincheng.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, there was Yan Wen, who was not riding in Liangzhou, and Yan Xing, a general of Han Sui. Yan Ding was regarded as the third more famous figure among the Yan family. Sima Yue was appointed to join the army, and his official career was very good.
But Sima Yue died, and Yan Ding had no choice but to run back.
Now he is a refugee commander.
There are many refugees from Guanxi in Henan County. Yan Ding was born in Qinzhou and was famous, so some people regarded him as the main one and settled and farmed in the mountain basin to the west of Mi County.
The status of the refugee commander and the Wubao commander were not favored by scholars like them, but now there is nothing they can do about it? It is better to have a force than to have nothing.
In fact, for scholars like them who have prestige among the refugees in their hometown, it is extremely easy to become a Wubao commander or a refugee commander.
Wang Ru is a junior officer in Jingzhao Mansion, and everyone recommends him as the leader.
Du Tao, a native of Shu County, was originally the county magistrate who suppressed the rebellion of Bashu refugees, and the rebellious refugees still regarded him as the leader.
The refugees in Kansai will naturally become dominated by Yan Ding.
Things like family background and family background, after one or two hundred years of development, have been deeply integrated into social culture, customs, and traditions, and influence everyone in a subtle way.
Even if some people rise up to rebel and kill the nobles, they have a vague sense of inferiority in their hearts. If there are nobles who are willing to cooperate with them, they are even willing to hand over leadership and serve them as masters. This is not Rarely seen.
Intangible things like the ethos and values of the times are often more difficult to break than tangible manors and docks.
Shao Xun tried to reverse this trend and values. This was a more difficult task than defeating the Huns. His idea was to start from the economic foundation, and the theoretical source was that "the economic foundation determines the superstructure." The effect How, it is difficult to predict.
Liang Fen, the general of Wei, is now one of the leaders of Xizhou scholars in the court.
Scholars in the world are divided into different regions. Generally speaking, the scholars from Xizhou did not do well in Luoyang.
In addition to Yan Ding, there are also Secretary Cheng Fu Chang and several others who came to visit Liang Mansion today.
Chang's father was recently promoted to Situ. He has a high position but not much power.
Chang brother Xuan was once the chief historian of Sima Yue, and later entered the court as an official. He was almost killed together with Gao Guang and others, but he was lucky to escape.
Under General Wei Liang Fen, Fu Zhi from Niyang in the north should be the second person.
But generally speaking, there are still not many Xizhou scholars serving as officials in the court, and their base camp is still in Guanzhong.
For example, Liang Zong, a younger brother of the Liang Fen tribe, is now the prefect of Jingzhaoyin, Liang Wei is the prefect of Beidi, Liang Su is the order of Pinyang, and Liang Zong's uncle Suo Wei is the prefect of Feng Yi...
The descendants of General Liang Ji were originally a wealthy family in Guanxi, but they were somewhat in decline during the reign of the late emperor. After Liang Lanbi became the queen, although General Liang Fen did not get involved in any political affairs, the Liang clan continued to benefit. In addition, they were good at life and had great power. Sima Mo, the king of Nanyang, also began to reuse the Liang family, and gradually improved.
Liang Fen was the hub of the Kansai scholars in the court, and many gatherings were held at his house. Yan Ding was envious and jealous of this, but given the current situation, he had no choice but to bow his head.
"Taiwan Minister, I have always known that you have a desire to make progress." Liang Fen leaned on the couch and sighed, "But Nanyang is not a good place. That Taibai Star elite sent six The soldiers are guarding Wancheng, what can I do if I leave?"
"Wang Ru..." Yan Ding whispered.
"If Wang Ru is too ambitious, he may not be obedient." Liang Fen said: "If I go to Wancheng, I may be able to win some people over, but Wang Ru will not surrender. Besides, I have no soldiers at hand. The difficulty is getting worse. "What does it mean that Duke Liang has no troops?" Fu Chang said: "In the past, when important ministers went south to suppress the rebellion, the imperial army would allocate some troops to lead them. If Duke Liang went south, what would happen to the court? If we have to divide the troops into thousands, won’t we already have troops? Besides, isn’t Beigong Chun in the north of the city?”
Liang Fen was noncommittal and just said, “Beigong Chun is coming to Luoyang?” , I have indeed visited me several times, and I know some of his generals. But they will eventually leave. How can they stay in Luoyang forever? "
"Liang Gong is wrong." Fu Chang. Before he could say anything, Yan Ding said eagerly: "I was in Xin'an a few days ago and gathered a group of defeated troops, the defenders of Tongguan. Because their retreat was cut off, they were defeated by Zhao Ran. If Liang Gong sent someone to appease him, he should be able to After the Xiongnu invaded Guanzhong, the return route to Tongguan was cut off. How could the Liangzhou soldiers return? "
"Today, if I want to send the governor out of town, why not negotiate the terms and take the Liangzhou soldiers away? . Then allocate part of the imperial army, or go to Hongnong to recruit the defeated soldiers at Tongguan, and it is not a problem to gather 10,000 people."
"The Du brothers in Yiyang have always respected Liang Gong, and they are not lacking in courtesy during the holidays. They are also from Guanxi, and their clansman Du Xun just went to Luoyang on the order of Zhang Liangzhou, offering 500 horses and 30,000 rugs. Liang Gong might as well try it out, maybe he can get some money and food. "
"Furthermore, there are thousands of Guanxi refugees under my tent, and they are willing to obey the orders of Duke Liang."
"Gong Liang." Fu Chang then said: "The war in Guanzhong continues, and there must be Qiang, Di, Hu and Han people. He left Wuguan and entered Nanyang. In the past, Liang Gong had become a good friend of the Qiang and Di chieftains, and his prestige was high. It would not be difficult to support him. In this way, he would have soldiers and people, so why should he be afraid? "
Liang Fen was silent for a long time.
After a while, he stood up and walked around, sighing again and again.
Fu Chang was okay, but Yan Ding was extremely anxious.
Why didn’t Mr. Liang seize such a good opportunity? He served as the governor of Wancheng and supervised the military affairs in the north. If he took office with him, he would be of great benefit, and the thousands of refugees from Guanxi who followed him would also be able to find a place to live.
"Guandong is not our territory after all." Liang Fen sighed and said: "If I were in Chang'an at this time, I would not say a word, but would do my duty and give you a future. The land of Jingxiang and Nanyang, The situation is complicated. There are important court officials such as Wang Cheng and Shan Jian, as well as refugee commanders such as Wang Ru and Yan Yi. Shao Quanzhong has even joined forces with the local wealthy family in Nanyang to arrange personal affairs. If I go, I will definitely confront him. "Come on, alas."
"Gong Liang!" Yan Ding said anxiously: "Shao Xun's family background is not strong, and his business is too big. The only person in control now is Luonan. There are only a few places like Yingchuan, Nanyang, Shunyang, and Lu State, but they are not reliable yet, so they go eastward to Fan County to rob Sima Yue's inheritance. I'm so full that I can't control such a big place. It's the imperial court's order for Duke Liang to go to Wancheng. Who dares to stop him?"
Liang Fen thought for a moment and asked, "Where is Shao Xun? ?”
“The heir to the throne of Donghai and his concubine have just been sent to Kaocheng.” Fu Chang replied: “He should still be deploying the defense of Yanzhou, trying to expel the Xiongnu cavalry that invaded south. In addition, Liu Cong sent Zhao Gu. Gou Xi and others led the army eastward and entered Qingzhou, trying to join Cao Yi's army. Gou Xi fought a battle with Cao Yi last month and won three consecutive battles. The number of troops became smaller and smaller, and Cao Yi was defeated. After three battles, the number of soldiers increased. When Zhao Gu and others arrived again, General Gou would be hard-pressed. Changes were imminent in the Qingyanxu area, and Shao Xun did not have much energy to take care of all parties. He had to intervene in Nanyang. There are many local wealthy families in the military and political affairs. It is not as difficult as imagined for Liang Gongruo. Moreover, the Hu and Han refugees from Guanxi are still entering Nanyang, and there is endless support."
"Shao Xun..." Liang Fen. Close your eyes and think.
He often hears others mention "Shao Taibai", and his reputation is too great.
He has also studied Shao Xun's past and admires him very much. He couldn't do this if he was in a different place.
To be brave, resourceful, insightful and skillful, not to be greedy for success but to lay a solid foundation, know how to advance and retreat, and work step by step. Could it be that these skills are given by God?
He remembered the prophecy.
Oh, it would be great if he was from Kansai. Even if he is not a scholar, Liang Fen is willing to support him with a lot of money - Xizhou is a place where Hu and Han people fight frequently, and there are family distinctions, but they are not as valued as the scholars of Guandong.
“Sometimes, I feel ashamed of the people of the world.” Liang Fen suddenly smiled bitterly and said: “Enjoying high officials and generous salaries, but saying nothing and accomplishing nothing, looking up and down, just like a puppet . Shao Taibai can defeat the enemy with martial arts and can calm the people, but I am not as good as him. It is not easy for him in Henan. He is exhausted in the four battles, but there are still people who are holding him back. If he continues, the state affairs will be ruined. It's going to be ruined."
"Mr. Liang..." Yan Ding felt a chill in his heart. Was he unwilling to go to Wancheng?
Fu Chang was also slightly disappointed. However, he has a good attitude and is not as eager for fame and wealth as Yan Ding. If he doesn't want to go, he won't go.
Everyone is tinkering in the court, trying to survive, take it one step at a time.
"Ming Gong." An old servant came from outside the hall. After glancing at Fu Chang, Yan Ding and others, he went straight to Liang Fen and whispered: "There is news from the palace that the emperor is telling Ming Ming." The father is very dissatisfied with his illness and is furious. He will come to the mansion to visit the patient soon, and he also said...said..."
"What did you say?" Liang Fen asked with a frown.
"If the prince is unable to get up, he can take a board to go to his post." The old servant said.
Liang Fen suddenly laughed, laughing so hard that tears came out.
Yan Ding and Fu Chang looked at him in confusion.
Liang Fen waved her hand, looked at the grass and trees swaying in the wind in the courtyard, and sighed: "People are like grass and grass, even high officials are bound to do so."
