[Three Kingdoms] After crossing, I opened the sick and weak main road line

The atmosphere in the room was very harmonious. At the beginning, Yuan Huan said a few more words in order to appease Zhou Yu and Cao Ang.

The pleasant-looking mortal banished fairy with a smile on his lips can easily make people feel good about him, but in just a short meal, the gentle and gentle image of the first state shepherd lord has settled in the hearts of the children of the Sun family and the Cao family .

Children are not allowed to drink alcohol, and a lot of sugar cane was newly sent from the house. It happened that there were a lot of little ones today, so Yuan Huan asked the kitchen to make sugar cane juice from the sugar cane and give them a drink after heating it.

Dry things are dry in late autumn, and sugarcane juice relieves heat and moisturizes dryness. Drinking a few more sips is not harmful to the body.

When Sun Quan and Sun Yi were at home, they heard their elder brother say many times that the food at the new lord’s mansion was delicious. When they went from Lujiang to Yanzhou to meet their father, their father also said that the food at the new lord’s mansion was delicious. Both father and elder brother said so, so As a result, as long as the two children think of Anguo Yuan Mansion, they subconsciously think of the delicious food here.

The two of them were young, with their elder brother standing in front of them, so they didn't have to worry about anything. After sitting down in a decent manner behind the food table with the elder brother in front, their attention quickly fell on the dishes.

Dad and elder brother are right, the food here is really delicious.

Sun Quan and Sun Yi can eat by themselves. Cao Pi and Guo Yi are about the same age. Like Yuan Jing, they all need the help of nurses and maids. The little guys eat quietly. The top is full of satiation.

When everyone had finished eating and the sky was getting dark, Yuan Huan didn't stay any longer, and asked his servants to bring lanterns and send them back to rest. After a hard journey, they had to rest and recharge their spirits before coming to him to take on tasks.

The younger ones can read and read, and the older ones start working. With the shortage of manpower in the house, no one can be idle.

Yuan Huan stood in the corridor and watched the juniors walk away. He first shook his head with a smile, and then took Yuan Jing and Guo Yi back to the room. "In the future, there will be many playmates. You can't be sloppy in studying and writing. You need to find some other gentlemen."

Yuan Jing blinked, raised her head and looked at her father, "Your father taught me, why do you still need a teacher?"

Yuan Huan held one in each hand and explained as he walked, "Daddy is teaching you now. You can't rely on daddy alone for your studies in the future. When you grow up, maybe daddy won't have time to teach you to read."

It's okay for him to enlighten the little guy, let him study the knowledge seriously, I'm afraid he can lead the two little guys into the ditch.

Now not only these two little guys need a husband, but the children of the Sun family and the Cao family can't relax their studies. If they don't ask them to become masters of Confucianism, at least they can't be too bad.

Becoming a cultural person is not just about recognizing characters. If you see an article, you can only read it from beginning to end. You will not explain the allusions used in it, the feelings expressed by the author, etc. like reading comprehension. Being illiterate makes no difference.

That is to say, if you want to get out of the category of illiteracy, the requirements are quite high.

No matter whether these children study civil or martial arts in the future, at least they cannot be regarded as illiterate when they go out.

Yuan Huan sent the two little ones back to the wing room, and told the nanny not to go to bed directly. They ate a little too much just now, so they can eat before going to bed, so as not to fall asleep at night and feel uncomfortable.

The moonlight was like washing, and the night wind carried a bit of chill, and the stars twinkled in the sky, and only the rustling wind could be heard in my ears.

Yuan Huan wrapped his cloak tightly and walked through the corridor to the study room. As soon as he sat down behind the desk, Tao Ji came over with the medicine, "My lord, the medicine is ready."

Shao Ji brought up the lamp stand and lit the candles, and the bamboo slips and silk cloth on the desk were brightly illuminated. Reading and writing at night is easy to hurt the eyes, so it is better to light up the lamp.

Looking at the steaming soup, Yuan Huan pursed his lips and said warmly, "Put it down first, and eat it later."

He is still not sleepy now, and he will not be able to do anything after taking the medicine. It is not too late, so he should deal with some things first, and then take the medicine and go to bed later.

Tao Ji took the medicine bowl down and warmed it, then went to the window to add a spoonful of spices to the incense burner, waited for the aroma to slowly disperse into the air, and then gently closed the lid.

Yuan Huan spread out a bamboo slip, picked up a pen and dipped it in ink, thought for a while, and then wrote something on the bamboo slip.

He found the Hedong Wei family, the Chen Liuwei family, the Linhuai Lu family, the Donghai Mi family and the Zhongshan Zhen family. Two horse dealers, Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping, took the initiative to vote. For the sake of the horses on the grassland, those two should also be used by him. .

The remaining few powerful merchants are enough to occupy the business of Sili, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Qingzhou, and Jizhou.

He can't control Sili, Qingzhou and Xuzhou for the time being. If the salt price can be stabilized, it will be stable. The families he picked are all well-reviewed families in history. It's done the best of humanity to achieve this step. If they can't stabilize, they can only wait. Later, I will slowly map it.

As for Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou, these three states not only need to stabilize the price of salt, but also stabilize the price of food.

As long as there is food and salt, the people's hope of survival will increase.

He couldn't remember when the successive years of severe drought at the end of the Han Dynasty started, but judging from the intensity of the attacks on each other by the princes of all parties, it must have been in the past few years. The destructive power of drought and plague was too terrible. If there is no control, there will be no upper limit at all.

—— 50 yuan for grain, 20 yuan for beans and wheat.

Food prices have risen to such a point that it is a ghost for the people to survive.

After the busy farming period was over, the steward of the mansion mentioned that this autumn will be slow to cool, and if there is no heavy snow in winter, there may be natural disasters in the coming year.

He doesn't know the farming season, but he knows that if the winter is mild, and there will be floods and droughts in the spring and summer of the next year, there will be a locust plague in the autumn harvest. Once the overwhelming locusts come, the harvest in the field will not be lost.

The locusts crossing the border is a terrifying scene that will not even leave a blade of grass, and as long as there is a disaster, it will not be a matter of one state. At least half of the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty will be affected.

It is best not to exchange the salt sold first for money. In this case, food is the most important thing. If the government does not have enough food to stabilize the price of food, once the price of goods soars, it will be cannibalism , The bones accumulate.

The situation in Jizhou and Yanzhou and Yuzhou will not be so bad. Even if they take in a lot of refugees this year, the food moved from Meiwu can last for a while.

Cao Mengde and Sun Wentai's farming business in Yanzhou is in full swing. As long as there is a bumper harvest next year, the situation in Yanzhou will basically be considered stable.

The premise is that there are no natural disasters.

Even if he has so much food in his hands, he is worried that he will not be able to take care of it. The situation in other places can only be worse, especially in the Sili area controlled by the imperial court. He is afraid that even without Guo Bang and Li Jue's chaos in Chang'an, the little emperor will still be left without food. The situation of hunger.

Now is not the time to face the imperial court head-on. With Wang Yun and others controlling the government, he has no reason to "coerce the emperor to order the princes".

The little emperor was too young, and Wang Yun was in charge of the government. That person was no longer the Wang Situ who tried his best to get rid of Dong Zhuo. Without Dong Zhuo's confidant, he might have forgotten how the word "cautious" was written.

Even if the little emperor wanted to cheer up, given the current situation of the court, he couldn't pass Wang Yun to issue orders.

The little emperor's life is too miserable, the whole world will change, no matter how weak the imperial court is, as long as the platform can be set up, the people from all walks of life who support themselves will not go too far.

The little emperor's situation can't be too bad, he has to try his best to stabilize the situation in Guanzhong, so that the court can only toss in Guanzhong.

The situation is ever-changing, and the princes of all walks of life are busy consolidating their foundations. Jizhou's strength can be regarded as among the best among the states. As long as the brain is not distracted, no one will take the initiative to provoke him for a while.

There are a lot of things to be busy this winter, Guo Fengxiao can't be lazy anymore, if that boy pushes everything to Xun Yu, he will go to the council hall to watch the two of them deal with official affairs in person.

The candlelight is flickering, and the beauty under the lamp is as bright as a jade, which has a special charm.

Tao Ji looked at the sky and felt that it was almost time, so she took the medicine that was warming on the stove and urged their adults to rest quickly.

The disease doctor told adults not to stay up too late, now it's time, if you don't rest, you will feel uncomfortable tomorrow morning.

Yuan Huan rubbed his wrists, looked at the bowl of pitch-black soup and sighed, among the hard-to-swallow things, it is the most difficult to drink one mouthful, it is better to just sip it.

The main courtyard gradually fell into silence, and the maids and maids retreated lightly, for fear of disturbing the rest of the master's house.

On the other side, Xun Yu, Wei Ji, Lu Su and others discussed the conditions for selling fine salt, and after they signed the alliance, they asked their servants to take them back to rest

The night was getting dark, but they were not sleepy at all. Guo Jia and Xun Yu exchanged glances, and returned to the council hall at the same time. It was not good to disturb the lord's rest at this time, and it was time to think about whether there were any omissions.

Guo Jia stretched his waist, went back to his seat and sat down. After lying down for a while, he said weakly, "My lord is far away in Jizhou, but he has to worry about the affairs of Guanzhong. His Majesty and Wang Situ won't reward him for this. Why bother to work so hard?" ?”

According to him, the most important thing to do now is to accumulate strength, and it is not their responsibility to stabilize the country. The lord has the heart to help the world, but before that, the first thing they need to do is to protect themselves.

If you can't even protect yourself, how can you help the world and save the people?

The world will be in chaos, and the imperial court has no chance of being rescued. The princes from all walks of life in the Central Plains seem to be just playing small fights, but in fact, when they are cut open, they all have small plans.

The family members surnamed Liu don't care about the court, why do they bother?

Now, Liu Yu is fighting wits with Gongsun Zan in Youzhou, Liu Biao is indifferent to outside affairs in Jingzhou, Liu Yan is even more ruthless, and immediately cut off the road from Yizhou to the Central Plains when he arrived in Yizhou. He said that he was the state shepherd, but in fact he was almost the same as the emperor of Tu.

The road from Yizhou to the Central Plains was blocked by Zhang Lu, but no one in the world knows that Zhang Lu occupied Hanzhong under the order of Liu Yan.

Even if the family members surnamed Liu are like this, their master's efforts are really not to be appreciated.

Xun Yu looked at him disapprovingly, put down the bamboo slips in his hand and said softly, "Regardless of the court, the people in Guanzhong are always innocent."

Since Dong Zhuo’s entry into Beijing, Guanzhong has been plundered several times. Most of the people have fled outside. The land is uncultivated, and the fertile land is barren. The Chang’an court has no intention to appease the people, and the situation is getting worse. Also uninhabited.

They are far away in Jizhou, so it is not easy to point fingers at Guanzhong, but with so many people in Guanzhong, they cannot ignore their lives.

Guo Jia put his face on his face and looked at the friend who was dedicated to the people beside him. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but said, "Wen Ruo, the imperial court is not as open and upright as you think. Come out to save the world and help the people, within three days, the request for something will arrive at the Yuan Mansion."

It's not that he is prejudiced against the court, but that Wang Yun can really do this kind of thing.

The situation in Yanzhou was so serious before, and just after receiving the grain and grass sent by Jizhou, old man Wang Yun could ask Zhong Yuan to go to ask for grain. It was obviously for Yanzhou, but in fact he came for their master.

Fortunately, Cao Mengde was clever, and quickly fooled him away when the situation was wrong. Otherwise, with the soft heart of their master, they might not be able to stand the old guy's crying and would open his mouth to give food.

If the lord could be as ruthless as when he cut off his drink in front of outsiders, wouldn't he have to worry so much.

Xun Yu followed with a sigh. It's not that he doesn't know what the imperial court is like. The elders of Xun's family never returned to Yingchuan for decades to avoid the disasters of the two party imprisoners. He knows what the imperial court is like. clear.

But aren't they following the lord just to restore peace to the world?

"If Wang Situ deceives people too much, my lord will not fight back." Xun Yu raised his eyes and looked over, speaking slowly but firmly, "Feng Xiao, my lord wants to save the people from fire and water, so we just need to spend more effort." , for the common people, it can save lives.”

The lord of their family looks gentle and good-tempered, but in fact he has a lot of ideas in his heart, otherwise he would not just start with salt and iron, but directly open a warehouse to release grain to help the people.

However, in case of natural disasters, it is necessary to open granaries to release grain. However, every time a natural disaster occurs, opening granaries to release grain will not have a good result. It also cannot fall into the hands of the people.

Guo Jia rubbed his face, sat up and sighed, "Wen Ruo has the world in mind, Jia is narrow-minded."

Xun Yu shook his head, spread out the bamboo slips next to him and continued, "Your Majesty is young, and Wang Situ will not be involved in politics for long. If the time is right, he should welcome the emperor to Jizhou. If he can serve the emperor to beg his ministers, he will not be as good as he is now." You have to cover up everything you do.”

"The relationship between each family is intricate, so Wen Ruo can't act too hastily." Guo Jia raised his eyebrows and said with a chuckle, "Don't talk about others, but those veteran officials of the court. If you want to crash to death outside the palace gate, how can you leave the capital so easily, the Son of Heaven?"

It was already a great disgrace to be coerced by Dong Zhuo to move the capital to Chang'an, if another one was coerced by their lord to move the capital to Yecheng, then it would be over, those old men would kill themselves in front of the palace gate if they were sulking.

Wen Ruo's idea is indeed good. To conquer the rebellious princes in the name of the emperor, they will be able to surpass everyone in righteousness, but the problem is that if they don't operate well, they will become thieves who hijack the emperor.

That's why he said that their current situation is not suitable for too much attention, and they can save money and food behind closed doors and it's over.

Factions in the imperial court continued to fight. If someone had their head caught by the door and wanted to harm them, Lu Fengxian would lead his troops to wipe out the imperial court before their lord could speak.

The current strength of Chang'an City cannot withstand the trampling of the cavalry's iron hooves.

He didn't worry about themselves, he only worried about the safety of the court, alas, in order to keep the precarious little emperor, he also worked hard.

The author has something to say: Guo Jia: For that little emperor, I also broke my heart.
