Chapter 2386: Brother Xian, do you understand?(2/2)
The result was beyond everyone’s expectation!
When the Vulcan stone cannon roared and defeated Zhang's city defense in Nanzheng, it actually also defeated the defense of all the powerful nobles in Shangyong, Hanzhong...
Zhang Ze chose to commit suicide because he not only knew that he could not survive, but also knew that other Zhang's Wubao had also lost the capital to negotiate terms with Zhang Liao, Wei Yan, and Zhu Ling!
The Zhang family has no choice but to surrender, a complete surrender, and still have a chance to survive. In front of the Vulcan stone cannon, Nanzheng's city defense is like paper. Could it be said that the Zhang family's Wubao Manor scattered around Hanzhong can be better than Nanzheng's? Does Zheng need to be stronger? So the day the city was broken, it was equivalent to the collapse of all Zhang's fortresses at the same time. Only Zhang Ze took all the blame and cut off all connections on himself. Maybe a little bit of Zhang’s blood and bones can be preserved...
Not within the Zhang family, but outside the Zhang family.
For example, the children of the Zhang family who surrendered early...
Several children born to Zhang's daughters who married outside...
Or maybe it was adopted to someone else back then...
If Zhang Ze does not die, then most of the surrounding "connected households" will definitely throw out all those who are not Zhang's family members in order to be exempted from liability, and Zhang Ze commits suicide in the city, just like some criminals who committed suicide in later generations. It's the same thing but the same thing, and some things may no longer be pursued.
The Zhang clan was destroyed, and the Shen clan was so frightened that they had diarrhea.
Because the Shen family's confidence is also in Wubao around Shangyong and Xicheng...
And although the Shen family helped Wei Yan intentionally or unintentionally after the arrival of Wei Yan, and did not continue with the Zhang family, the problem is that everyone can clearly understand that the overall pattern of Shangyong in Hanzhong is completely different. The Shen family It is no longer possible to continue as before.
Local powerful people controlled the surrounding land and farmers through Wubao, and it has become a common practice to use these mutually dependent Wubao as capital to resist the Han regime.
Now I suddenly find that the Wubao that I thought was strong and that I was proud of is suddenly like an egg shell, breaking when touched. This kind of psychological gap is not a big one.
What's more, he may be dragged into the water by Zhang at any time...
Self-rescue became Shen's urgent concern at the moment.
"...I think of me, the Shen family, who moved to Shangyong a hundred years ago, cleaned up water conservancy, cultivated the mulberry family, made friends with all parties, and became good friends with Ji Di...but I never thought of today..."
"The reason why I came to Chang'an this time is to seek some life for the Shen family! However, I went to the Husband's Mansion to pay my respects... five times! I made five attempts in succession! Each time I returned without success, just like that.
It’s like a stone sinking into the sea, there is no news! And the good thing is... I feel bitter in my heart... bitter..."
"I know, I am presumptuous in asking my brother for help today... But we all underestimated the strength of the hussar... Today we are Hanzhong Shangyong, but tomorrow we will be somewhere else? If today the Shen family pursues the Zhang family,
Perish, if it were the case in the past...who can speak up to uphold justice?"
"The hussars are being defeated one by one now. If...if we let it go, I'm afraid in the end..." Shen Yi said this, sighed, and looked out the window of the restaurant.
The restaurant faces the street.
Because Zuixian Tower itself is a place with a large flow of people, the surrounding area is also very lively, with shops and stalls everywhere, pedestrians coming and going continuously, and several children laughing and playing in the alley.
The sun was shining on the street. The inspectors, with three or five inspectors, were riding horses and patrolling slowly along the street. On the high platform at the corner of the street, soldiers carrying longbows were on duty, and the iron on the brim of their helmets was on guard.
The film reflects the cold light...
"Brother Pei! Please save my little brother's family from fire and water!" Shen Yi seemed to be stung by the cold light. She suddenly closed her eyes and shed tears. She left the table and kowtowed to the middle-aged man opposite, "Shen Yi
Up and down the family, if you are asked to do something in the future, you will definitely face dangers and fires, and you will never refuse!"
Pei Yuan stretched out his hand and gave Shen Yi a hand, and then sighed, "It's not because I'm cruel, but because this matter... is really difficult..."
Shen Yi also went to Chang'an to study in the east of the river, and had a relationship with Pei Yuan. After her request to see the hussar failed, and some nobles in Guanzhong did not want to get angry and avoided him, it was natural.
The only life-saving straw left was Pei Yuan.
At least Pei Yuan is still a councilor of the Senate, and he still has some reputation.
As for Pei Yuan, he is very poor...
Relatively poor.
Of course, the Senator of the Senate has a salary. If these salaries are used for daily expenses, of course there is no problem, but since he is an "important position" in the Senate, how can he not have some welcomes and attend some elegant events?
Literary meetings, wine tastings, unobstructed conferences, etc.?
Then the Senate's salary as a senator is naturally not enough.
Pei Yuan's father has passed away, and his capital in Hedong is not very rich. In addition, he and Pei Mao have had conflicts before. It is simply impossible to get Pei Mao's support. And if he really wants to go to Pei Mao
If you ask for money, Pei Mao will probably give it, but Pei Yuan will naturally have to pay the corresponding price...
Pei Yuan's purpose in coming to Chang'an was to establish his own business, and of course he did not want to become Pei Mao's dog just for a few dollars.
It is impossible to reduce expenditures, so we can only find ways to increase revenue.
With more open sources, although the income has increased a lot, there are naturally a lot more risks. This time, the "Law of Corruption" introduced by the Qinglong Temple Cavalry General almost kept Pei Yuan awake at night. On the bright side, it was not possible
Opposing, fearing to attract the attention of others, can only be a slap in the face. Speaking at conferences and meetings must be to fight corruption, and keeping silent is to fight against malfeasance.
The slogans made the mountains ring, but my heart felt weak.
It can’t be seen yet!
Tired, how do you become an actor?
That’s how it’s made!
Pei Yuan has saved a lot of money through various channels in the past two years, but this money will bite his hand, if something goes wrong...
Pei Yuan didn't have the ability to jump out and confront the hussars, so he naturally thought of the corresponding strategy.
There is no place for me to stay here, I have my own place to stay!
Taking advantage of the time gap before the big plan was defeated, I couldn't survive under the hussars anymore, so I fled, bah, emigrated, bah, went to other places for academic exchanges!
If you want to have academic exchanges, of course you can’t do without something close to you.
Shen Yi, who had nowhere to ask for help, became Pei Yuan's fat sheep. Naturally, he would pick one up first. Who knows if there will be another chance to pick up wool? It's not too late...
Shen Yi took out a few "flying tickets" from the bank and stuffed them into Pei Yuan's hand.
Huqi banks are all over the world, well, not all over the world, but in most important cities in Huqi territory, even in Xu County, Yecheng, and Wu County, there are Qingyin that can exchange these flying tickets.
shop.
Of course, what is within the territory of Xiuqi is the "Dahan Bank" directly under Xiuqi. If it is within the territory of other princes, it is the bank controlled by other princes. After all, the princes in these places also need to do business with Xiuqi.
Drunken immortal wine, golden fan...
Pei Yuan glanced at it slightly, pinched it, with an angry look on his face, "What do you mean by this? Who do you think I am?"
"I'm just asking for some advice, brother, nothing else..." Shen Yi's expression changed slightly, and she took out some more "flying tickets", then bowed again and presented them to Pei Yuan.
Pei Yuan's eyes quickly slid back and forth on the "Flying Ticket" a few times, and he calculated the number. The angry look on his face disappeared, and then he subconsciously looked around, raised his big sleeves, and stood up to speak.
, get up and talk...』
"If it were someone else... I would definitely ignore it..." Pei Yuan looked at Shen Yi and whispered, "But you and I are old friends. I really am... that's it, that's it... there is only one way to survive now..."
Shen Yi moved forward and stuffed some more things into her hands, "Brother, please give me some advice..."
"I wonder, dear brother, have you ever heard that... after the victory in the battle between Xiqiang and Xiqiang, there will be sacrifices for prisoners?" Pei Yuan had one thing and two, and of course there was nothing awkward about his move of putting it away this time, "My dear brother...
