Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

By the time Zheng Ling finished packing her mood and came out of the back room, her son Wang Chen had already returned from school. Although the academy also took care of the food, if the food at home was delicious, Wang Chen would usually come back to eat.

"Why are you back at this time? Did you have a holiday so early this year? And shouldn't it be your turn to stay behind this year?" When Wang Liang was having lunch, his somewhat slow mind finally remembered why his son would come back this year. .

"The Ganges gave us a collective holiday. Let's go to my father-in-law's fiefdom to investigate and learn." Wang Ke replied casually, and Wang Liang frowned when he heard this. He liked his daughter-in-law, but he didn't like his own family very much. In-laws, because the two families are not from the same family.

There are also some issues of dislike. Although there is no explanation on the surface, Wang Liang can still notice that the other party is not very familiar with his own family in some details, so Wang Liang rarely has contact with them. As a Liangzhou person People he identifies with are strength and conquest. The other person doesn't like him very much, so he won't stay close to him. It's best to stay away from each other until death.

Anyway, I am marrying their daughter, not their whole family. I should give gifts every year during the New Year, and go there when I need to visit. At other times, I can live with it. I am living my own life, not the dignity of other people’s families, so I don’t care. What does it mean?

"Did something happen?" Wang Liang said with half-squinted eyes. He still has some sensitivity. Although he has been retired from the army for ten years, he is still very keen on certain things.

"Didn't something happen at the end of last year? There have been rumors since then that we are going to be enfeoffed. Now it's confirmed." Wang Ke scratched his head and said, compared to pretending to be in front of his wife, in front of his father , Wang Ke really didn't dare. His martial arts skills were taught by his father. This old man can really fight.

"You kid can still sneak into the fiefdom!" Wang Liang was shocked. Wang Liang had never thought about this kind of thing after struggling all his life. He even thought that if he could do this in this life, the ancestral tombs would be smoking. As for where the ancestral tombs are, To be honest, Wang Liang doesn't know either.

There is no way. Think about it, he is a Liangzhou barbarian and now lives in Taishan. He knows the situation, ancestral tombs, what ancestral tombs, I really don’t know who the ancestor is.

"Don't underestimate me, I also have a fourteenth-level title!" Wang Ke said with a look of dissatisfaction, "I was notified before that a fifteenth-level title can be allocated to [-] square kilometers of fertile land in the Ganges. I still have this level. We are sure of it, and after it was circulated, the higher-ups considered that it is okay for us to lead troops to fight, but it is useless to run the fiefdom, so during the current truce, let us go to the currently formed fiefdom to learn."

Wang Liang was shocked at first when he heard this, and then began to think about how big ten thousand square kilometers was. There was no way. Even if Chen Xi unified weights and measures, many old people were still accustomed to using the old weights and measures, which made it difficult to grasp the conversion of some scales, such as area. For Wang Liang, the size of this kind of thing is a bit confusing.

After all, you really can't expect that in a place like Liangzhou, where the academic style is basically dead, ordinary people can be proficient in mathematics. To be honest, let alone mathematics, they don't even know how to read. It's because of Sun Tzu that they can barely read in recent years. While studying, he was forced to follow suit. As for mathematics, he really couldn't learn it.

However, considering that it started with ten thousand, Wang Liang estimated that it should be quite large.

"Dad, the Ganges Plain of 100 square kilometers can probably support more than [-] million people." Zheng Ling, who lowered her head to eat without saying anything, put down her bowl at this time and spoke slowly.

Wang Liang was stunned when he heard this, and then stood up from the dinner table and looked at Wang Ke in disbelief.

Wang Liang didn't understand the area, but Wang Liang understood the population. Wang Liang and Li Tiao were both in Mount Tai, and they had worked together before. Li Tiao, a prince, only had a few hundred food towns in his country.

These days, the highest-ranking county marquis among the princes, that is, the marquis who uses one county as his seat, generally only has two to three thousand households, because these days, one county generally has only ten thousand people, and according to one household Counting four people, it is really at the level of two to three thousand households.

This is also the reason why some people went crazy after calculating the outrageous method of enclosing [-] square kilometers with a fifteenth-level title. This is already a canonization at the county king level, and it needs to be the top level. Only the princes canonized by the county can be compared.

What's even more outrageous is that this is a foreign fiefdom, so it's not just about output and salary, it's about actual operation and management, and it also requires recruiting soldiers and horses to defend the fiefdom.

"That's it." Wang Ke nodded and said, "General Guan and Military Advisor Xu read us the official document issued by Chang'an, and then asked us to apply according to the process."

While talking, Wang Ke took out all the process reports, including three official documents with seals from Ganghe, as well as official documents from the Chang'an Political Yuan.

"Actually, the Taiwei and Her Royal Highness were still required to issue a seal, and maybe even use the national seal. But I was the first one to run back. The Taiwei hadn't arrived yet, so the military advisor sent me this, saying that I could use this too. Use it." Wang Ke said and took out the white paper that Li You had stamped with the seal of the censor Zhongcheng and the seal of the servant of the minister, "I didn't write anything, I just stamped it."

For some things, the more seals used, the more it can explain the problem, and the more people can feel the formality of the matter. For major events like what Wang Ke said, without such a set of procedures, let alone the current Wang Liang And Zheng Ling, even Wang Ke himself doesn't really believe it.

But now he took out such a thick stack of documents stamped with the seals of the legion commander, the commander-in-chief of the group army and Guan Yu, as well as the seals of Shangshu Pushe and Yushi Zhongcheng, which was very convincing.

"In this case, we really need to study." Wang Liang couldn't understand the area, but Wang Liang had fought in the war and knew how difficult it was to manage 1 people. But now with 100 million people, that's really not what they are. These small families can afford to play.

Although he didn't have Wang Liang, he didn't have any brothers or sisters, and he didn't have any sense of family, but at this time he clearly realized that if such a huge fiefdom was to be created, it wouldn't be something that their little cat could only manage in twos or threes. That's when you really need to find someone to help.

As he spoke, Wang Liang naturally looked at his daughter-in-law. Wang Liang was still very clear about the situation in his family. In addition to his ability to fight and command troops, his son was worthy of praise. The rest was just like that. It was just a mess. Good times, plus Liu Bei and Chen Xi are indeed reliable. At other times, it would probably be the same as he was back then, and it would be better to die than to eat dirt.

And Wang Liang himself, he knew very well that before, a crippled old man like him would have starved to death long ago. Even if he didn't starve to death, he would probably have to go to the point of competing with dogs for food. Now he can Living in a house, having a leisurely job, and having meat to eat is not at all his own ability, but the benevolence of Liu Bei and Chen Xi. In other words, he has no way to do anything about the kind of thing he is facing now.

On the contrary, his daughter-in-law has taken care of their house in an orderly manner over the years. She has also educated her son and two daughters very well. She handles all the things at home very well. He and his son do not need to spend any thought at all. In Wang Liang's opinion, this is ability.

Therefore, in Wang Liang's opinion, it would be better to need Zheng Ling's advice for such a big matter. Besides, wouldn't it require a visit to the Zheng family?
As for the bad relationship with the Zheng family before, to be honest, it doesn't matter much at this time. Whether the relationship is good or not, their family's future rise has been determined. They are just learning from it. The Zheng family If you can still stop it, you can understand it by yourself when you see the blank paper with the seal on it.

"Dad, it's not that easy." Zheng Ling saw Wang Liang looking at her, sighed, gave her son and daughter a meaty bone each, sent the three cubs out to play, and then said to Wang Liang , "I'm afraid we can only rely on ourselves to learn from it. The Zheng family probably had bad intentions in this regard from the beginning."

Wang Liang was immediately stunned by his daughter-in-law's words. In so many years, Wang Liang had never seen Zheng Ling complain so directly about what happened to her mother's family. Zheng Ling had no choice at this time. In the case of her father-in-law and her husband, to put it mildly, they might not be able to understand the underlying meaning. But if they couldn't understand such a big thing, then there would be a big problem. So Zheng Ling thought about it comprehensively and decided to speak up.

"First of all, Dad, you have to understand that this is a fiefdom, a large fiefdom, a fiefdom that can support millions of people. Even in terms of area, it is a fiefdom of one hundred kilometers wide and one hundred kilometers long, and This fiefdom is a real one, which means it has the power to recruit troops and make legislation." Zheng Ling directly chose to show her cards, and she still had to choose between being the queen or the concubine of the Zheng family!
Besides, it’s not like I don’t have a son!

"If it's something else, I would suggest you ask the Zheng family for help. Although the Zheng family is very arrogant and has the innate unruliness of aristocratic family members, it is precisely because of this arrogance that they will not treat ordinary things. Do it because it's not worth it, they have better ones." Zheng Ling looked at her father-in-law and her husband seriously, she must now make this awareness clear to them.

In the past, Zheng Ling didn't think it was a bad thing that her father-in-law and husband agreed with her natal family, and she even thought it would help her balance the relationship between her family and her natal family. But now, Zheng Ling only regrets that she didn't make a break with the Zheng family. , it is best for both parties to cut off contact directly.

As for having no place to study after severing contact, Zheng Ling had already looked through the sealed documents her husband had brought back. They were very complete. There was not a single word in the text that she had to go to her father-in-law's fief for study, exchange and research.

In this case, why should I go to my father-in-law's house? Isn't it okay to go to other families to study? Anyway, it's all research and study, so why do I have to go to my father-in-law's house?

In Zheng Ling's view, the so-called study and research in the fiefdom of her father-in-law is just to consider the family background of her wife. But now for Zheng Ling, she feels that her biggest problem is this family background. Damn it, the Zheng family is not pregnant. You have good intentions, but you actually dare to take the idea of ​​​​my son's fiefdom. Cut it off, it must be cut off, it is best to cut off all ties!
"Uh, is that so?" Wang Ke hadn't turned around yet, and Wang Liang had experienced a lot. After Zheng Ling woke him up, he had more or less realized what the problem was. This was the overwhelming wealth, and it was different from the previous ones. Things are different. The Zheng family can really appreciate this thing, and they appreciate it very much.

"Easy, a group of people from the Zheng family came to help you. After helping you, what should you do if you don't leave and occupy the magpie's nest?" Zheng Ling seemed to have seen the damn possible expression and was very angry. Anyway, Zheng Ling is now Ling's dislike for the Zheng family has risen rapidly.

There was no other way. During the Chinese New Year, someone from the main line of the Zheng family mentioned this to her at the Zheng family dinner table. At that time, Zheng Ling was still wondering why the main line of the Zheng family came to visit her home during the Chinese New Year. We don't always do that. A little transparent? Why did the Main Pulse come over to have a meal and talk to me about life, fiefdoms, etc. These bastards knew this at the beginning of the year, right?

Just thinking of this, Zheng Ling's heart tightened, and she was a little afraid of her mother's family. But when she thought of her lively children and the vast fiefdom in the future, Zheng Ling became ruthless. Even if her family was capable, , then you have to be careful, you can't really let me cheat you, this is a fiefdom, with this thing, as long as you stand up, what can the Zheng family do!

This is the benefit of higher education. It is a good thing that the Zheng family in Xingyang hired Zheng Xuan, a relative of the clan, to educate their school-age children. The reason why the young people of the Zheng family have good vision and intelligence is that Zheng Xuan's basic education is indeed good. Very good.

But on the other hand, Zheng Xuan is somewhat of a man who teaches without distinction. He doesn't care who he spreads his knowledge to, and he doesn't care whether his knowledge exceeds the cognitive scope of these people. What is the first-class education method? Zheng Xuan doesn't care about the second-level education plan or the education methods of ordinary people.

When Zheng Xuan taught these juniors in the Zheng family, he was just a free rein and taught casually. This was the basis for Zheng Ling to be exposed to the second level of education.

The second level of education at least allows Zheng Ling to analyze at a high enough level, to understand the current environment, and to analyze the overall situation. Even if she does not have the ability to argue and make decisions, she can at least see the direction. Able to realize the big picture.

In addition, after involving her children, Zheng Ling's computing power was almost full, and she quickly noticed the weaknesses of their Wang family and the Zheng family.

It is true that the Zheng family in Xingyang is a wealthy family in the world, a minister for many generations, and a family of princes. But on the one hand, their main power cannot be invested in themselves. Although even this residual power, if only the operation, management and design of the fiefdom are mentioned. The operational ability at the planning level is far stronger than that of the Wang family, but the Zheng family in Xingyang lacks righteousness, so they cannot do it openly and can only use evil hands.

After having this awareness, Zheng Ling realized that her family was not incapable of fighting against the Zheng family in Xingyang. Their family could not defeat the Zheng family in Xingyang, but her husband had comrades-in-arms, and his father-in-law also had comrades-in-arms, and these comrades-in-arms had Many of them are life-long friendships, and more importantly, these comrades have their own fiefdoms, and they also have the situation that the Wang family is currently facing.

In this way, it is impossible for these people to pursue the idea of ​​​​their royal family's fiefdom. Instead, they need to face the pressure that may be transmitted from their wives' natal families.

In other words, everyone faces the same situation, and everyone facing this situation has a promising future and the same interests. In other words, they can stick together.

"When I returned at the beginning of the year, the main line of the Zheng family talked to me about the fiefdom. I didn't know the reason because I didn't have relevant information channels at the time, but now..." Zheng Ling sighed, "But it's not too late now. , at least the Zheng family has only made preparations and hasn’t taken action yet, we still have time, and we have righteousness."

"If the Zheng family helps, it's not impossible if we want to share some of it." Wang Ke scratched his head and said. He didn't think there was any problem with the Zheng family asking for some benefits after helping. He also had to collect money for his work, not to mention that the construction of the fiefdom was so complicated. Difficulty, the Zheng family helped them build it, and giving them a piece of it in return was really not a problem in Wang Ke's opinion.

As for the Zheng family knowing about the news at the beginning of the year, Wang Ke thought that he had heard the news at about the same time, but he just didn't tell his family. This doesn't mean anything. It can only be said that the news is more recent. precise.

"If you just want a piece of fiefdom, it doesn't really matter." Zheng Ling looked at her idiot husband and couldn't help but sigh, "But if the Zheng family puts in such effort, what they want won't be a piece of land, but a fiefdom." Everything, husband, do you understand what everything means?"

"How can it be all of them?" Wang Ke laughed and said, "This is my fiefdom."

"When I took my son back to Zheng's house, they suddenly wanted to marry my son at the beginning of the year. I was quite happy at the time because I was also quite satisfied with my niece, but what do you think now?" Zheng Ling's eyes were filled with tears. With a gleam of cold light, he said, "This is to occupy the magpie's nest."

Wang Ke couldn't help but get excited and looked at Zheng Ling, looking at Zheng Ling in disbelief, "That's not the case, my uncle and the others are pretty reliable."

"That's just reliable under normal circumstances, but your uncle is just a branch of the Zheng family. Apart from the main branch, which branch of the Zheng family do you think can compete with us as we develop?" Zheng Ling looked at Wang Ke He asked very seriously, "Once you enter the Marquis family, it's as deep as the sea. Husband, use your brain. What can you do for the position of a Marquis? And now you have more than just a County Marquis."

Wang Ke couldn't stop smiling, his face was a little stiff, he looked at Zheng Ling, and then slowly turned to look at his own father, and saw Wang Liang nodded. Indeed, the position of a prince is very fatal.

"So be mentally prepared. They are still close relatives in private, but when doing things, they are the Zheng family. Don't mix personal feelings into it." Zheng Ling's eyes were slightly cold.

The author probably sent it, ε=(ο｀*))) Alas
