Three Kingdoms

The spring scenery in Linfen County is beautiful, and there are new peach trees in front of Weijun Hall.

Although the trees in the back yard of the Wei Mansion are not as lush as those in the wild, a few trees have been planted. It is spring at this time, and the greenery and bright peach blossoms create a pleasant scene.

Wei Qian was sitting in the pavilion in the backyard. There was a table in front of him. On top of the table was a pottery vase with a narrow mouth and a wide belly. The celadon glaze on the bottle body was cracked in small pieces, like spring. There are cracks on the ice that is about to melt on the river, and a peach branch is stuck in the bottle.

Wei Qian was carefully looking up and down at the peach branches and leaves in the bottle. He was holding a round-headed pair of scissors in his hand. The nozzle was small, but the handle was very long. He was slowly, slowly, When pruning peach branches, every time I make a cut, I have to look at it for a long time. After looking at it again and again, I will continue to cut it with scissors.

The spring scenery is beautiful, every plant and tree is full of vitality.

The vase is beautiful, with smooth lines, simple and unique.

The peach branches are beautiful, and the petals are pink and plump.

Wei Qian's clothes were very white, his hands were steady, his expression was calm, and he was smiling.

When Yang Feng arrived, he saw such a scene in front of him, and he was a little stunned for a moment. Pingyang has been defeated, and the situation is now in ruins, but Wei Ji is so stable. This skill of cultivating Qi is really amazing.

"Meet Duke Wei." Yang Feng bent down and lowered his head.

Wei Jian cut off a short branch with a "click", paused his hand, and smiled across the peach branch: "You don't have to be polite, Yang Shuai, please sit down. Hey, I haven't seen you for a few days, and Yang Shuai is like this..." Wei Jian His eyes stayed on Yang Feng's hair for a moment.

It should be said that Yang Feng was in his prime at this time, and when they met in the restaurant, he still had black hair, but he didn't expect that it was only a few days apart, and now it was already mixed with a lot of gray.

Yang Feng nodded slightly, seemed to smile, but didn't say anything, just walked to the mat beside him and sat down.

Wei Ju was silent for a while, and then said quietly: "Shuai Yang, how about taking a look at this branch?"

"The beauty of the peach is as bright as its flowers. Made by Wei Gong, it is naturally beautiful." Yang Feng looked at Wei Jian's graceful appearance in white clothes. He didn't know why he felt disgusted in his heart, so he couldn't help blurting out.

Yang Feng took advantage of Fei Qian and Yu Fuluo's attention on the camp, disguised himself as ordinary people, and fled in all directions. He escaped, but now he has basically lost all his soldiers, and only the remaining The personal guards of fifty or sixty people are like bereaved dogs...

On the other hand, Wei Qian was sitting in Linfen City, pruning peach branches leisurely and contentedly!

If Yang Feng had some thoughts and tricks with Wei Qian before, and now he is reduced to this situation, how can he have any leisure in this regard?

Wei Jian was stunned for a moment, then stopped moving his hands, his eyes were lowered, as if he was thinking a little.

hehe!

A cold light flashed through Wei Jian's eyes. Without saying a word, he slowly put down the small round-headed scissors in his hand.

Peach, in the book written by the King of Huainan, it is written that Hou Yi was killed with a peach stick, and Hou Yi was the leader of a tribe...

Peach, in the Book of Changes, belongs to the earthquake wood. The Zhen hexagram says, "When the earthquake is severe, hundreds of millions of shells will be lost in the Nine Tombs; don't chase them away, they will be harvested in seven days." Moreover, wood belongs to the east among the five elements.

Well, even if Yang Feng's family is not good at learning and has never read "Huainanzi" or "Yi", since he quotes words from the Book of Songs, it means that he has at least read the Book of Songs.

Taozhiyaoyao describes the time when a beautiful woman gets married. When used in the current scene, it somewhat mocks Wei Ji's idea of ​​sitting at home and doing things as a daughter.

Wei Ju looked at Yang Feng and nodded. He neither got angry nor continued to say anything about the peach branch. He just gently pushed the bottle with the peach branch aside, and then called the servants to prepare the tea.

After a while, the tea soup was served.

Wei Jian offered tea with one hand and rolled up his sleeves with the other. He offered tea to Yang in a graceful manner and said: "The spring weather is sharp, the dew is wet and the fog is heavy. I add a little green onion and ginger. Although it has a slight smell, it can dispel the cold and strengthen the body. Please drink it, Yang Shuai." .”

Yang Feng did smell the slightly pungent smell of green onion and ginger, but he naturally knew that drinking this kind of ginger tea to sweat would have a certain effect on dispelling the cold, and he was indeed exhausted from the journey. How could he be like this? A bowl of tea soup is also very good for dispelling cold and refreshing, so I picked up the tea bowl and drank a bowl without thinking too much.

Wei Jian signaled his servants to serve Yang Fengman again, and then said slowly: "I wonder where Yang Shuai wants to go?"

"I feel ashamed for violating Duke Wei's entrustment. However, now that the matter has come to this, I have more heart and strength. Therefore, I want to go to Hongnong and find a place with mountains and rivers to spend my remaining years." Although Yang Feng just said that he was impulsive It took a while, but now I have gradually calmed down. When I talk about the emotional part, my eyes are a little red. All the past events in these years seem to come to my mind at this moment.

The shock when I learned that I was an abandoned branch of Hongnong Yang family...

The powerlessness when the elders in my hometown were swept away by the yellow scarf...

The helplessness of using knowledge to gain status in exchange for the survival of fellow villagers...

The fear of waking up in the middle of the night when committing arson, murder, and other evil deeds...

The hope that rose again when someone from the Yang family secretly found him...

Once upon a time, Yang Feng even thought that with the power he had in his hands, he could branch out from a marginal gentry and join the ranks of serious gentry, and obtain an official position in the imperial court, which could be regarded as an official position. You can officially return to the genealogy of the Yang family in Hongnong, and you can kowtow in the Yang family's ancestral hall and burn an incense stick...

But his dreams, his wishes, his strength, and his reliance, all of these disappeared under Pingyang City and became nothingness, just like a good dream sleeping in a leaky house. When you wake up, It was still bitterly cold at the time.

Yang Feng hated Fei Qian and Fu Luo. He even hated Wei Qian and the Hongnong Yang family. However, these hatreds had no meaning anymore because he had no strength. Even if he unleashed all his resentment, he would still be angry. What can be done?

It's like an ant, waving its giant claw desperately, how much damage can it cause?

Yang Feng was disheartened and his hair turned gray overnight.

Although it is said that there are still fifty or sixty people under his command, and they have escaped from Pingyang, but so what? No money, no food, go to Yanshan to join Heishan again, and continue the career of a Yellow Turban thief?

Yang Fengjue felt tired and didn't want to continue living like this, so he came to find Wei Jian. First, he had some instructions for Wei, and the other was also looking for some food and grass, which could provide enough for him to take his people to Hongnong. .

Wei Jian pondered for a while and said: "Victory and defeat are commonplace, why should Yang Shuai be so discouraged? The Shaanxi-Tianjin pontoon bridge has been broken, and it will be inconvenient to go to Hongnong. How about Yang Shuai change his route to the east?"

What Wei Ji said now is very straightforward——

What's to the east? Taihang Mountain, Taihang Mountain is the base of the Black Mountain Army!

To go to the east is to defect to the Black Mountain soldiers, and then continue to exert the power and role that a chess piece should have in the hands of the Wei family or the Yang family...

But Yang Feng no longer wanted to continue the life of a yellow turban thief. After thinking about it, he said, "I will make plans after I return to Hongnong."

Wei Ju was silent for a long time, and finally raised his tea bowl and said, "Everyone has his or her own ambitions, so let's use this soup to give Yang Shuai a ride..."

The origin of the conflict between Wei and Yang:

…

One time we were chatting and asked what we were going to do when we got old.

The third general said he sold steamed buns, called Lao Zhang steamed buns;

Meng Qi said he sold fried dough sticks, called Lao Ma fried dough sticks;

Zilong said that Lao Zhao was the one who opened the family soybean milk;

When it was Wen Chang's turn, he said he hadn't thought about it, and just then Yang Yi passed by.

If you are quick to talk, let’s say you open a fried fish shop...

…

…

Disputes between Wei and Yang continued...
