Chapter VIII, the crime of wanting to be added
Modern social information is extremely developed, especially in big cities. Everyone has consciously or unconsciously instilled in their heads from the moment they open their eyes in the morning. In comparison, there was too much less information in the late Han Dynasty, and the timeliness was close to zero - especially in a wealthy manor in remote counties.
After all, A Fei had the consciousness two thousand years later. His ability and speed to absorb information was a master in the late Han Dynasty. He also used his special talents intentionally or unintentionally to absorb all kinds of information like a sponge absorbs water, and soon became the unique "gossip king" in the village.
According to his investigation, the ancestors of the clan family were originally doctors of Qi in the Warring States Period. They lived in Yingling County, Beihai County. During the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, a total of seven or eight middle- and low-level officials from ranks of 100 stones to 800 stones were produced, which was also considered a prominent family in the county. The father of the clan family was named Shi Yi, and his courtesy name was Zi Yin. He was not the eldest son of the clan family. In the third year of Xiping, the year before the birth of A Fei, he was invited by Wu Feng of Chenliu and Wu Feng to cross the sea to Lelang to take office. Wu Feng was the prefect of Lelang and Shi Yi was his subordinate.
After the death of Wu Prefect, the court changed Teng Shu to the Prefect of Lelang. At this time, Shi Yi had already taken root in the county, bribed thousands of acres of land, and the courtyard was everywhere. It was neither big nor small, but it was considered a local tyrant. Therefore, Tai Shao Teng had to reuse it and appointed him as the supervisor. At the end of the first year of Zhongping, the Yellow Turban Rebellion was pacified and the court replaced Teng Shu with Zhang Qi, a native of Ganling. After Zhang took office, the prefect of Zhang was corrupt and abused the law, solicited bribes and accepted bribes. Shi Yi repeatedly advised him and refused to listen. In anger, he simply retired.
Of course, this is the news from the family, and the evaluation of Shi Yi will certainly be positive. According to A Fei's own analysis, it should be that the new and old officials have unevenly divided the spoils, which caused Shi Yi to be dismissed. Although he was dismissed, the resentful Master of Shi still secretly stumbling to the prefect Zhang from time to time.
The clan Xun was two years older than A Fei. He was born in the spring of Guichou in the second year of Xiping. He turned 18 in the seventh year of Zhongping. He held a ceremony under the auspices of the elders in the county. The elder said: "The Zhou Li·Xia Guan" says: Wang Gong is called Xun. My teacher Zheng Kangcheng explained: Fu Cheng Wang Ye, like Duke Zhou. Therefore, he could call him "Fu"." So he decided to write the following word: Hongfu.
The crown ceremony has just been completed here. The old name and new characters and the year and month date of the crown ceremony are filled in the genealogy. Suddenly, news came from Zhongping that it was not seven years at all. Last April, the emperor passed away, with his posthumous title of Ling, and the crown prince succeeded to the throne and changed his yen name to Guangxi. So everyone hurriedly took off the bamboo slip that he had just filled out and repaired a new one.
From the capital Luoyang to the easternmost part of the empire, even if it is not fast enough, it will not take nearly a year. A Fei can only judge that either the big guy didn't even take this small county in his eyes at all, or the thieves along the way have flooded again. And he laughed in his heart that it won't take long before this family tree needs to be changed, because last year, starting with Emperor Ling, there were actually three emperors, starting from Zhongping, and also three year names were changed, and then this year it was the first year of Chuping.
After his first pacification, it should be Jian'an. The old era has completely ended, and the chaos of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty began. How could he survive in this turbulent era? I don't remember whether Lelang County was swallowed up by Goguryeo or returned to the Gongsun family in Liaodong...
I would like to add a few words here: A Fei's previous life was not a specialist in history, but just an ordinary enthusiast of the Three Kingdoms in the late Han Dynasty. His memory was deviated. In April 189 AD, Emperor Ling of Han passed away, and Emperor Liu Bian succeeded to the throne and changed the reign to Guangxi; in August, Dong Zhuo entered Beijing and changed the reign to Zhaoning; in September, Dong Zhuo abolished Shao Emperor and established Emperor Xian Liu Xie, changed the reign to Yonghan; in December, Guangxi, Zhaoning, and Yonghan were eliminated, and the reign to be called the sixth year of Zhongping.
——In other words, the SLG game collectively calls this year the sixth year of Zhongping in the game, which is not to save trouble.
Moreover, in 190, the dynasty was changed to the dynasty of the dynasty, and after the dynasty of the dynasty was there, there was Xingping, and then the Jian'an reign was reached.
At the end of this year, the clan family suddenly suffered a disaster.
On November 2018, Shixun took A Fei, Lun's family and others out for hunting. He wandered around the wild for two days and one night. The next day was approaching the evening and carried a few rabbits, birds and a yellow sheep back to the courtyard. As soon as he entered the village, he saw the people running around in a hurry, as if they were packing up their things.
Shixun felt strange. Before he could ask, a housekeeper ran out and called him into the inner room. A Fei and Lun's family and others were busy unloading their prey, packing their weapons, and washing their mounts. At this time, what A Fei used had been replaced with a half-new mulberry bow, with the bow power close to one stone, but the mount was not as good as him. Although the northern part of the Korean Peninsula produced good horses, the family of the local tyrants in the far county could not afford to take advantage of it. Among this group, only Shixun and Lun's family had horses. Shixun once promised that when A Fei became old, he would send him a horse to ride.
Ah Fei looked around the six directions and listened to all directions. He quickly figured out the situation in the village. It is said that nearly an hour ago, a fast horse was coming from the south. After the horse knight had a secret conversation with Shi Yi for a while, he hurriedly left. Then Shi Yi sent someone to find his son to come back, and ordered to pack up his luggage, looking nervous, as if he was traveling far away to avoid disaster.
According to A Fei's judgment, the conflict between Zhang Prefect and Master of the Clan was probably intensified to the point where he had to take action. Since the fast horse came from the south, someone in the county should have informed Master of the Clan. In the head-on conflict, the clan family could not stop the prefect Zhang. Even if he did not pass the commander, the prefect Zhang could still bring out nearly a thousand county soldiers at any time. There were only more than 100 slaves in the clan family's house, plus a few other places, and even nearby tenants, they would only get three or five hundred people if they were killed, and most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled. Therefore, it was reasonable that the clan master was anxious to move.
Sure enough, Shixun went in to see his father, and he came out in half a meal. He opened his face and greeted A Fei and Lun's house: "Eat something quickly and then follow me on the way."
"Young Master, where are we going?"
"Go to the North Sea."
A Fei guessed that Shi Yi lost his wife in middle age and took three concubines but had nothing to do. He only had a precious son like Shi Xun. He was really worried. He probably had to fight a guerrilla war with Taishou Zhang in the county for a while. In order to avoid worries, he let his son escape back to his hometown first. And maybe... he also planned to use the power of the family to win over some officials, go to Luoyang to sue Zhang Taishou for the Diao case, and transfer the thorn in his eyes from Lelang County.
However, according to A Fei's memory, the princes should start to challenge Dong at this time. Where can the court have any idle things?... No, it should be said that there is no serious court that can complain?
The first master and the second slaves filled in some stuff—Shuxun also filled in some corn, roasted chicken legs, frozen vegetables, marinated broth, etc. A Fei and Lun's family had bean bran cakes, pickled radish and warm water—and then packed them up. In fact, the two slaves had no luggage to pack, so they brought their own sets of changing clothes, a pair of straw sandals, and placed them under the saddle, and then hung water bags and dry food bags on the saddle.
That's right, before Ah Fei was a man, he finally caught a boy's horse to ride by chance. He was a little excited and a little nervous. Lun's family advised him: "Don't worry, you can ride a horse. As long as you clamp the horse's belly with your legs, you won't fall off. This horse is gentle, as long as you don't rush your feet, you don't need to learn riding a horse."
A Fei vaguely felt that he had heard this somewhere... Ah, by the way, Professor Kalkurus in "The Adventures of Tintin" said: "If you are an individual, you can drive..."
Shi Xun brought more things. Just changing clothes, shoes and socks, and they were equipped with scarves and head crowns. They made a big bag of money to show their status as a gentry. Finally, they stuffed a large bag of copper coins and two pieces of wooden slips tied together. A Fei probably wrote a letter to his relatives in his hometown. As the master, Shi Xun, of course, would not carry such a large bag of things by himself, and he could not bear to burden the horse under his crotch, so he threw them all on A Fei's shoulders.
While smiling at the person, A Fei cursed in his heart: "Damn it's really so heavy... so much money, if you want to exchange it for silver crocks and gold leaves, it should be much easier? I don't know whether gold and silver can be directly circulated in this era..."
After leaving the courtyard, the three of them rode their horses and trotted to the west. According to the plan, there was a small market town called Nanpu near the entrance of the Lieshui (Datong River) in the southwest. They could find ships to cross the sea. Then they took a boat to the Shandong Peninsula, got ashore in Huang County, Donglai County, and then went to Beihai County from there.
Ah Fei had nothing to say along the way, and he was crazy about Shixun's tone. In recent years, he followed Shixun, relying on his brain and his mouth was sweeter, and he had already gained Shixun's absolute trust. In a sense, he could even play with this young master in his palm. Shixun trusted him, his mouth was unprepared, and he was full of doubts and resentment, so he quickly found it out.
As expected by A Fei, the familiar Shuzuo in the county sent someone to inform Shi Yi, saying that after several years of water-melting, Zhang had already pulled the county magistrate and the commander into his pirate ship. So he planned to send county soldiers tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to confiscate the family's house and chop off the heads of the father and son of the family on the charge of affair with Goguryeo.
Shi Yi asked his son not to worry, and said that he had already expected similar storms and arranged a solution to deal with them. He asked his son to leave Lelang first and go to Beihai to join his uncle - "Let's go while the night is at night, and there are no need to bring people to accompany him, so as not to leak the news. You can arrive in Nanpu at the latest day, which was the fourth day of the lunar month. On that day, a large sea boat sailed to Qingzhou. The owner of the ship was Qian, a friend of his father, and you have seen it."
At first, Shi Xun refused to leave and was worried about his father's safety. However, Shi Yi smiled faintly and comforted him, "I was a thief with Zhang for several years. He was the magistrate of the county magistrate. How could I not prepare for it? When the village was cleaned up, I would go north to Zengdi in the early morning of tomorrow. The county magistrate and I would definitely be able to settle it. If the county soldiers chased me, I would also contact the favorite minister of the King of Goguryeo, and then I would lead the Goguryeo soldiers to resist. If the steps back, I would say that if things were not in harmony, I could sneak into Goguryeo. The king admired his father for a long time and promised to be the chief clerk. Please go with peace of mind, don't have to worry about someone."
Damn it's really an affair with Goguryeo! It seems that the crime Zhang Taishou convicted this family was either a crime to be punished, but his cat was the real one!
