Dinghai Fusheng Records

The guards of the Forbidden Army outside the door glanced at Chen Xing, showing a disturbed expression.

"I won't kill people casually like Shulukong," Chen Xing said, "Don't worry, just take me to Gongcao, and help me explain."

The guard waved his hands hurriedly, as if he was very nervous, his eyes were only on the ring on Chen Xing's hand.

The guard obviously couldn't speak Chinese, and when he saw the ring, he hurriedly bowed slightly, feeling very embarrassed.Chen Xing remembered that this quaint luminous stone ring was picked by Tuoba Yan casually last night, so he said in Xianbei: "Where is Tuoba Yan?"

The guard immediately bowed and made a gesture of invitation, signaling Chen Xing to wait here for a while, then turned around and ran quickly to pass the message.

Chen Xing: "???"

After a while, a figure turned around at the end of the corridor, dressed in a dark red martial robe, wearing a chi-long mace-toothed dagger, passing through the Weiyang Palace full of spring flowers, it was Tuoba Yan who was facing the wind from the jade tree.

Chen Xing smiled and said, "Brother Tuoba!"

Tuoba Yan smiled in the spring breeze, looked around, seemed a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "Where are you going? I will accompany you."

Chen Xing hurriedly postponed it, it’s too much trouble for you, but Tuoba Yan smiled and said: “It’s okay, it’s boring to be on duty, I’ll walk around with you.” Then he took off a string of lapis lazuli beads on his wrist and handed it to Chen Xing Xing said cordially, "Here, this is for you."

"No, no, no!" Chen Xing immediately said seriously, "Why did you give me something again? I was going to return the ring to you!"

Tuobayan wanted to give him things as soon as they met, which made Chen Xing very embarrassed. The two pushed back and forth. Chen Xing wanted to take off the ring, but it got stuck and he couldn't take it off. He insisted on not accepting it. Tuobayan said : "I took them all off, how can I take them back?"

In the end, Chen Xing had no choice but to still wear the ring, explaining the purpose of coming, Tuoba Yan thought about it, and said straightforwardly: "Okay, I will take you there."

There are many guards in the palace, but they are obviously well-trained, walking like the wind, without squinting. When the patrolling guards saw Tuoba Yan, they all retreated to the two lanes, bowed, bowed, and gave up their hands.

There was a carriage waiting at the gate of the palace, Tuoba Yan first asked Chen Xing to get on one, when Chen Xing was moving a place for him, Tuoba Yan put down the curtain of the carriage, got on the horse, and rode beside him.The imperial guards cleared the way, accompanied by regular attendants on scattered horses, this is the treatment only given to the Emperor of Qin, Chen Xing couldn't help feeling uncomfortable, opened the car window and looked out, just in time Tuoba Yan also glanced at him, The left hand pointed to his hand around the rein, motioning Chen Xing to look at the ring.

"You wear it all the time?" Tuoba Yan said.

"Uh, yes." Chen Xing was vague, and began to feel that something was wrong. Tuoba Yan was too enthusiastic about him, could it be love at first sight?I just don't know if Tuoba Yan treats everyone like this, or just treats him.

Tuoba Yan's character is not like Xianbei people at all, but like a Huns, he never beat around the bush, and asked: "Why do you follow the Great Chanyu? What is the relationship between you two?"

It’s okay if you don’t ask this question, but when you asked, Chen Xing finally couldn’t hold back any longer, reached out from the window of the carriage, and pulled Tuobayan’s skirt: "Listen to me, listen to me carefully..."

Chen Xing then told Tuoba Yan the whole process of how he knew Xiang Shu. Tuoba Yan was at a loss when he heard it, and finally went to Degong Cao's gate and nodded to him.When Gongcao officials saw Tuoba Yan, they saluted one after another, and the two of them seemed to have walked into a deserted place, where the files were stored.

"...So," Chen Xing said, "now I have to investigate the change of the official office."

"So that's how it is." Tuoba Yan smiled thoughtfully, "I thought you were a family member of the Great Chanyu, but people have always said that he and the Han people are...um."

"What is it? Hmm..." As soon as Chen Xing said it, he immediately felt that Tuobayan might want to say "I thought you were the wife of the eldest son", so to avoid embarrassment, the two of them fell silent.

Under the rule of Fu Jian, the imperial court still followed the three-provincial system of the Jin Dynasty. Under the political affairs, it was divided into six ministers: the Ministry of Officials, Dianzhong, Wubing, Tiancao, Duzhi, and Zuomin. The emperor's family and the court, sacrifices and other ceremonies, the Five Soldiers are the main department in charge of the conscription and war.Tian Cao is in charge of land, land, water conservancy, and engineering and construction matters across the country. The expenditure is only in charge of finance, and Zuo Min is in charge of government affairs including corvee service and population flow.The six ministers command the fifteen cao, and each cao has its own doctor, who is responsible for the size of the political affairs.

The Gongcao Chen Xing went to was the corresponding government office for the reconstruction and expansion of cities such as Chang'an and Luoyang.At that time, apart from some military officials in the imperial court, almost all the civil servants were Han Chinese, and all their written communications were in Chinese.It's not that the imperial court doesn't want to use Hu people, but the official children of the Five Hus have always only done sabotage, and they really don't know anything about governing the country.The writing is not uniform, and you can't read it, and you can't help but call the other party a barbarian when you quarrel.A group of barbarians were so noisy that they couldn't do anything. In the end, they had no choice but to turn to the Han people for help.

Fu Jian was familiar with the books of sages and sages since he was a child, and he longed for the prosperous age of poetry and books in the Central Plains. He knew that although the Hu people dominated the north by force, they were determined not to last long.What's more, it's hard to say who wins and who loses when the time, place and people are right for war.The Han people have only been weak and weak because of the sensuality of the Jin court in the past hundred years.When it comes to marching and fighting, the Han people are not ambiguous at all. Since ancient times, from the time when Qin Zhuanggong retired from Xirong to save the Zhou royal family, and then to the Han Dynasty, even the Cao Wei Dynasty, every time they beat all the ethnic groups outside the Great Wall until they cried. The names of Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and others couldn't bear it.

It is precisely because of this that Fu Jian issued a strict order to order all the Hu people outside the Great Wall to change their Hu customs and read Han books, otherwise they will be crowned as monkeys after all, and they must take advantage of the decades when the Han people are temporarily unable to resist, and quickly dominate the world. Otherwise, it's hard to say what will happen when the master of the Central Plains recovers.

Seeing that Tuoba Yan was personally accompanying him, Gongcao Lang knew that Chen Xing would not be neglected, so he personally fetched the hundreds of years old files in Chang'an City for him to read.

"Can you understand?" Tuoba Yan saw the densely packed silk with square characters all over it, which was like a heavenly book to him.

"Of course!" Chen Xing was speechless, and replied, "I am also a Han Chinese after all."

Gong Cao Langzhong put his hand on his forehead, and winked at Chen Xing, meaning to be careful when talking to Hu Man, and don't provoke them.Chen Xing sat upright and bowed slightly, knowing that he meant well.Gongcao Langzhong said: "Take a look, two adults." So he withdrew.

Tuoba Yan: "Is this an ancient script? Many Han people may not know all of it."

Chen Xing smiled and said, "I have been studying and composing articles since I was in primary school. I followed my father's ears and eyes every day, and I learned it slowly."

Tuoba Yan personally went to roll up the curtain a little bit, just in time for the sky to shine in.Pear trees are planted everywhere in Chang'an City, and occasionally a few snow-white petals float in, and the spring air is refreshing.

"Can you recite "The Yue People's Song"?" Tuoba Yan asked again.

Chen Xing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and opened the file: "When is this evening, the boat is in the middle of the boat. When is today, I have to be in the same boat as the prince."

"Being ashamed is good, don't be ashamed."

"I'm so annoyed, I've learned that the prince..."

Tuoba Yan said with a smile: "There are trees in the mountains, and there are branches in the trees."

Chen Xing casually said, "Your heart pleases you, you don't know."

The two of them sat on the wide couch, Chen Xing and his clothes respectfully invited out this letter from the wooden box, which was hundreds of years ago, and began to restore the map of Chang'an in the Han Dynasty by putting together the shredded paper from the Han Dynasty.

Tuobayan was watching Chen Xing's actions as if conjuring. For a while, only the sound of shredded paper was heard in the room. Chen Xing pieced together a map of a small half of Chang'an, and found that Tuobayan was looking at him. With a wink, he faintly sensed that there were too many undercurrents surging between the Hu people and the Han people in Chang'an. The two sides looked at each other vigilantly across the difficult river.

Hu people are wary of Han people, and in this fear, they can taste a little "admiration".It seems that the Han people were born to be superior to the barbarians, and now they have fallen into the mortal world like gods. The five barbarians don't know how to deal with them, so they can only foolishly and frantically circle the masters of the Central Plains who were once high above them, and then wantonly vent their humiliation, expressing their cruelty desire to destroy.

"Do you want to learn Chinese characters?" Chen Xing suddenly said to Tuoba Yan when he thought of this.

Tuoba Yan immediately said: "I want to, but I can't learn it."

Chen Xing guessed that the great Confucian scholars in Chang'an City were tired of all kinds of nonsense, and had no interest in developing any educational methods for them, let alone learning the language of barbarians like Xianbei.Just teach casually, and it is their good fortune to learn it, and let them go if they can't learn it.So he wrote a poem generously, which is "Xing Xing Chong Xing Xing" in the first volume of "Nineteen Ancient Poems". It was also the first poem when his father taught him how to read. Phonetic notation.

"Let's do it again and again, let's say goodbye to you," Tuoba Yan began to learn Chinese characters seriously, "We are separated by more than ten thousand miles, and each is at the end of the world."

Chen Xing found the architectural marks of Chang'an in the Han Dynasty 300 years ago, and began to search for the blueprints of that year, and said with a smile, "Did His Majesty Fu Jian ask you to read the books of the Han people for assessment?"

"More than that?" Tuoba Yan said helplessly, "There are exams on the first and fifteenth of every month. I was taught Chinese by Master Wang Meng back then."

Tuoba Yan spoke Chinese very fluently, but he couldn't read the characters. Fortunately, Fu Jian also knew that military officers were not easy, and the assessment standards were slightly looser than those of civilian officials.

"Wang Meng." Chen Xing stopped, thought of many things from this long-lost name, went to the shelf to take down the corresponding drawings, and said casually, "Your Majesty seems to like Han people."

Tuoba Yan stared at the paper, lifted his eyes a little, glanced at Chen Xing, retracted his eyes again, and said: "The decree issued at the beginning of this year, intermarriage with you Han people, if you marry a Han person, your food salary will be increased by one, five." A pair of heirloom jade rings will be bestowed upon you by the superiors, and His Majesty will come in person to officiate the marriages for the children of all ethnic groups."

Chen Xing said with a smile: "Then, is Brother Tuoba planning to ask for a Han Chinese daughter-in-law?"

Tuoba Yan's face suddenly turned red. Seeing Chen Xing tiptoeing to reach the scrolls on the top shelf of the bookshelf, he got up and took off a large bundle for him, raised his finger, pointed to it, and replied: " Brother still wants to wait, because His Majesty still has a decree to be promulgated."

"Oh?" Chen Xing reached out to pick up the scroll, and said, "What decree?"

"At that time, all men and women in the world will be wives." Tuoba Yan replied solemnly.

Chen Xing didn't catch it immediately, and the scroll fell all over the ground with a splash.

Chen Xing: "..."

Tuoba Yan hurriedly bowed to pick it up for him, and said: "It's still you Han people who are against it, otherwise it would have been done long ago."

"Isn't this nonsense?!" Chen Xing lost his temper, "How can a man get married? Your Majesty is too messy!"

Tuoba Yan retorted: "Why can't we get married?"

Chen Xing: "This..."

Chen Xing picked up the scroll, and after listening to Tuoba Yan's explanation, he knew that Fu Jian still had this thought.A few years ago, Fu Jian doted on Princess Qinghe and Murong Chong's siblings, especially for Murong Chong, and called her "Phoenix Son".Not to mention the people in the world discussing it.

Since ancient times, what is good at the top must be followed by the bottom. The nobles of all tribes began to imitate Fu Jian, especially those who were born as warriors, and they often took pleasure in pursuing beautiful young men and talking about love.As a result, the customs in Chang'an became more and more fierce. All noble families used the name of marriage, but in fact, they married Qin and Jin, which was a highly respected act.

Only the Han people in Chang'an thought to themselves, if you raise a male pet, you will raise a male pet. It's all leftovers from our ancestors. Since Liu Bang, such things have rarely happened?Is there something wrong with insisting on bringing it up aboveboard?

And Fu Jian looked around again, and besides sighing, he couldn't let go of Murong Chong, the prefect of Pingyang who went to Hejian, and decided to implement a new marriage order throughout the country, encouraging all males, regardless of Hu and Han, to marry men of the right age.As if he wanted to use this new method to express his heart to Murong Chong.

Now the Han civil servants exploded collectively, how can this work? !This is a subversion of ethics, disorder of yin and yang, brazenness of the world, and violation of the laws of ancestors and sages!Among other things, there are three kinds of unfilial piety, and having no offspring is the greatest. What about childbirth?

Fu Jian's response to this is that one can take a concubine, or adopt one, isn't it?

No, no, the civil servants are raging, so hurry up to remonstrate, let alone the issue of future generations, men marrying men, it's ridiculous, I've never heard of it!Of course, these scholars are also very afraid. If the male marriage is released, if they are forced to marry by the barbarian military officer, wouldn't it be a loss of reputation!

Fu Jian's response was, since ancient times, there has never been a story of a foreigner being an emperor in the land of China. Why don't I ascend the throne anyway?What is the problem?dont you agree?

Chen Xing hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, I am obsessed with the past...I have to take a long-term view and accept new things."

So Tuoba Yan lowered his head to read the poem again, and said, "I see you, um...so..."

Chen Xing suddenly felt a little dangerous. He not only encouraged intermarriage between Hu and Han, but also encouraged marriage between men. What you said today...does it have other meanings?

"So?" Chen Xing asked vigilantly, "So what?"

"That's why I thought you were Da Shanyu's...wife." Tuoba Yan said seriously.

"How can I be his daughter-in-law!" Chen Xing roared angrily, almost bringing the case to light, "If you say it, he is my daughter-in-law! No! It's not about who's daughter-in-law. I have nothing to do with that bastard Xiang Shu. relation……"

In Weiyang Palace.

"Ha Chirp!" Xiang Shu sneezed suddenly, startling everyone in the hall.

Time has passed, and the visitors have changed. Last night, news came out from the Weiyang Palace that every family in Chang'an heard that the young master of the Shulu family had entered the capital, so they hurried to come to make a kiss.Fu Jian treated the old people outside the Great Wall most leniently, and the one waiting for Xiang Shu was obviously the treatment of Kaifu Yitong Sansi.

Although there is no rumor about the specific official position, it must not be lower than the Taiwei, and Xiang Shu has the support of the Chile Ancient League behind him.

The eldest son is going to inherit the family business, and the teenagers brought by each family are all younger sons without exception.In addition, some fathers and brothers brought portraits of their daughters for Da Shanyu to taste. Guan Xiang said that he likes men and women, so he sent them for viewing first.

Xiang Shu was annoyed by the quarrel, but he was a nobleman, so he had to save his face, so he couldn't beat him out.

So I saw the young men in the hall full of picturesque features, Xianbei people, Xiongnu people, Di people, each with its own style.The aristocratic deacons of six or seven families and five Hu nobles kept sending portraits in front of him.

The young gentlemen poured tea for Xiang Shu cup by cup. This is the etiquette of marriage in the ancient alliance, which originated from the nomadic peoples outside the Great Wall. Showing that they are acquainted with each other, everyone gallops on horses when they are free, with the sky as the cover and the ground as the seat, and it will be vigorous.If you don't like it, you can avoid it, and let your father and brother serve the tea, which means that you are too unsatisfactory, so get out.

Over time, it evolved into a cup of hand-made milk tea to show sincerity.

Xiang Shu really didn't understand, Fu Jian liked to mess with Murong Chong, so he could do it himself, why did he make the whole of Chang'an scramble to start talking about it.When the milk tea was brought up, he didn't drink it, just because of which one he drank, he could try to look around by default.

There are so many families, all of whom are barbarian nobles, and it is not easy to slap them in the face on the spot, so Xiang Shu could only say: "I will order someone to send back the milk tea that has not been touched later, and the same goes for the empty cup."

As he spoke, he glanced at Tong Genglou, glanced at Shi Chen, and frowned slightly.

The visitors left one after another, and it was nearly dusk. Xiang Shu felt that today was a busy day, and when he was about to get up, he saw a figure outside the hall, and said, "Yu Wenxin? What's the matter? Come in."

Yu Wenxin got the summons, and immediately came in with a smile on his face. At that time, the young people of the aristocratic family had not finished walking, and they all stared at him.Xiang Shu wanted to taunt him a few words, but Yu Wenxin smiled and prostrated himself on the ground: "Greetings to the Great Chanyu! The villain really lost his eyes last night!"

Xiang Shu looked at Yu Wenxin coldly. After all, he didn't reach out to hit the smiling face. This way, it wouldn't be easy to get angry, so he said, "How many brothers and sisters do you have? The portrait is here."

Yu Wenxin laughed, first went to the side, picked up the pot and poured a cup of milk tea, and under Xiang Shu's strange eyes, he personally served it in front of him, and said a little embarrassedly: "Da Shanyu, I have no brothers or sisters... I Just keep..."

Statement: "You go out."

Yu Wenxin put down his teacup, wanted to hug Xiangshu's leg, and said sincerely: "Da Shanyu, I have always admired you. Over the years, I haven't gotten married for a long time. I just hope that I can see your demeanor like today. you……"

Xiang Shu lifted his foot to avoid Yu Wenxin's hug, and kicked Yu Wenxin out directly.

"Go to someone, tell Jiantou!" Xiang Shu roared, "Yuwen's family was copied, and the whole family was sent back to Youzhou, and they were not allowed to enter Guanzhong again for 100 years."

"Da Shanyu, spare me!" Yu Wenxin was shocked, he didn't know where he was offended, he knelt in the courtyard and hurriedly begged for mercy, although he didn't know if Fu Jian would listen to Xiang Shu's words and really copy his home, but he was afraid that if Xiang Shu died If he is in a high position, he will definitely make trouble for him.Just as he was begging for mercy, another beautiful girl came outside and walked into the hall without telling her.

Xiang Shu glanced at it, and saw that it was Princess Qinghe. Princess Qinghe couldn't laugh or cry, saw Yu Wenxin, and said, "Why did Yuwen's family mess with you?"

Yu Wenxin hurriedly said: "I don't know! I..."

Statement: "I don't know either."

Princess Qinghe: "..."

Princess Qinghe recognized Yu Wenxin, so she said a few words, Xiang Shu didn't answer, Princess Qinghe motioned Yu Wenxin to stand up, without saying why she came, she just looked at the portrait on the table with a smile, and said with a smile: "Oh, it seems that we are talking about kissing today. There are quite a few of them, are there any Han Chinese?"

"No." Xiang Shu said coldly.

Xiang Shu and Princess Qinghe are old acquaintances. Seven years ago, Princess Qinghe disguised herself as a man and participated in the hunt at the Yinshan Dismounting Fair, which really made her shine.The two of them met each other last night, so they didn't have time to talk, so they expected to catch up on the old days today.

"So much tea, do you use it for worship?" Princess Qinghe didn't care about Yu Wenxin who was standing outside, and was about to serve tea on the table, but Xiang Shu said: "It's also about kissing, whoever you drink, you will marry."

Princess Qinghe knew the rules, so she had no choice but to not touch the neat twelve cups of tea, and poured another bowl of tea to drink, saying: "I just came back from your majesty's place, and I have talked dry, so I just came here to ask for a bowl Tea."

Princess Qinghe was quiet and quiet only in front of Fu Jian and when she was entertaining guests. She was used to being unrestrained, and she was a completely different person from last night.Facing his old acquaintance, Xiang Shu softened his tone a little: "Your brother has already married, otherwise I will drive you out now."

Princess Qinghe turned her bright eyes, but said with a smile: "Brother Shulu knows that I only have one younger brother?"

Xiang Shu took a deep breath.

Princess Qinghe sat down at the side, and explained: "Your Majesty's nonsense, this decree is not intended to torment you. I came here specially today, and I don't want to tell you anything about marriage..."

Xiang Shu breathed a sigh of relief.

Princess Qinghe: "I wanted to ask, is the Han brother you brought yesterday married? Is he someone close to you?"

"Boy." Xiang Shu said coldly, "No."

Princess Qinghe said "ah" happily, and said, "That's good, because I still have a younger brother."

Item statement: "..."

Princess Qinghe said again: "The name is Tuobayan, he joined the imperial army at the age of 14, and he is eighteen this year. He has been with His Majesty for many years. For some reason, he fell in love with your little boy yesterday..."

Item statement: "………………"

Princess Qinghe said kindly again: "Yu Wenxin, I heard that you are also old acquaintances?"

Yu Wenxin outside hurriedly said: "Yes, his father's name is Chen Zhe, and his ancestral home is in Jinyang."

Princess Qinghe only pretended not to understand Xiang Shu's face, and said happily: "I heard Yan'er mention this matter last night. It turns out that he is a very famous Han Chinese. Ever since Yan'er became an adult, she has always wanted to find someone like this. The boy who happens to be in the Tuoba tribe, he is also the youngest son, I think you are about to nod, so I will tell His Majesty."

Xiang Shu had no choice but to change his words: "I can't control this matter, I'm not familiar with him."

Princess Qinghe was full of doubts.
