Today's Qin Dynasty of the Great Zhou Dynasty has ruled the Central Plains for nearly 200 years, and since the founding of the People's Republic of China, it has been commanding the world to be rich and strong. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

But since forty years ago, the Great Zhou Dynasty, which has always been powerful, has begun to change.

It is said that the Great Zhou Dynasty of the Qin family, starting from Taizu, has gone through nine generations since now.

Taizu founded the country and reigned for twenty-one years. During his reign, he has been committed to stabilizing border defense and thriving production. The following three generations have made great efforts to govern, rectify internal governance, and encourage production, so that in less than a hundred years, even if the Great Zhou Dynasty became unprecedentedly prosperous and powerful, the surrounding barbarian small countries all paid tribute to the Great Zhou.

However, the Qin dynasty was passed on to the fifth generation, the emperor began to be incompetent, the court became more and more chaotic year by year, and then the state affairs were unstable, the situation was turbulent, and the struggle between the government and the opposition gradually spread.

The sixth emperor Yingzong reigned for 30 years, and he was extravagant and arrogant for the emperor. In the later period of his reign, he used people indiscriminately, and even gave official positions as gifts at will, and even more so that the emperor himself openly betrayed his official position, which is unique in the history of thousands of years.

Since the beginning of Yingzong, the various forces hidden in the court immediately began to openly fight, and the royal family suffered more than half of the casualties in several struggles, and in the following seven years, after two emperors, they all ascended the throne at a young age, and the power was in the hands of the relatives of the ministers.

The eighth emperor, Wuzong, ascended the throne at the age of eight and reigned for only four years before being overthrown by his uncle King Heng. Then the royal lineage was wiped out by all of them, and there was not much left of the Qin family's royal clan.

The ninth generation of Emperor Chengzong, that is, the current saint, is still a capable figure. But its ability is in the realm of conspiracy. However, nothing has been achieved in governing the country, resuming production, and defending against foreign enemies.

Chengzong has been in power for ten years, and the only thing he has done since he ascended the throne is to kill all the forces left over from the previous generations of emperors one after another. For example, didn't he just kill the clan brother of the previous queen mother, King Ning Chu Tianfeng's faction, and by the way, he also destroyed a generation of martial arts sect Yuntianmen!

Therefore, today's saints, although they ascend the throne strongly, hold great power. But in the ten years since he took the throne, the national power of the Great Zhou Dynasty has not only not risen, but has continued to decline year by year.

For these court disputes, it is impossible for twelve-year-old Liu Shuangli to know much. Now that she has been destroyed, she has no relatives and nowhere to go.

Looking at the eyes, there is only a wandering life in the world.

The one hundred taels of silver given by the second senior brother is too much for Liu Shuangli. But in the first three months when she didn't spend money at all, she was squandered most of it at once.

When she suddenly learned that her master had been destroyed and realized that she was alone and had nothing to rely on, she had to really think about her future.

took out all the belongings on her body and counted them, only to find that the one hundred taels of silver that the second senior brother gave her were only thirty-seven taels of silver plus nineteen copper plates.

After calculating the silver, Liu Shuangli couldn't help but be stunned, and after being stunned, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh. Think about it, if she wants to spend the remaining silver in its original state, it will only be enough for half a year at most, right? What will she do after half a year?

This, she didn't know and didn't dare to think about it!

All she knows now is that there is no one to help her anymore, and she can only take one step at a time to go down!

And the first step in front of us is very realistic, and that is money.

Therefore, in order to extend the use period of this last bit of silver to the maximum, and because the accommodation fee of the inn is really the most expensive of all expenses, Liu Shuangli began to choose a life of sleeping in the wilderness. Fortunately, she is a martial arts practitioner, and her body bones have always been very hard, and the life of Fengdan Lu is not a big problem for her.

Because she wanted to sleep in the wild, Liu Shuangli began to stop walking in the direction of crowded towns, but chose the dense forests on the outskirts of the mountains to find a way forward, and when she was lucky, she saw some pheasants and hares and other small animals, she swung her sword to eat, so that every time she caught a small animal, she could save her two or three meals of silver.

In this way, she saved money all the way, and after two months, she only used less than five taels of thirty taels of silver.

The use time of the silver has finally been extended to the maximum.

Because he has never been to the north, because most of the important towns in the capital of the world are in the north, although Liu Shuangli is wandering aimlessly, he has been walking towards the north in the direction.

On this day, she came to Taiyuan, Shanxi.

Taiyuan is a famous city with a long history, with the nickname of Dragon City. When today's seventh prince, King Jinyang's palace is located in Taiyuan, and the land of Fangyuan Baili in this area is also the fief of King Jinyang.

Liu Shuangli doesn't know much about these court separations. She just walked all the way north into Taiyuan City, walked around the lively city casually, and had a full stomach. Seeing that it was getting late, I left the city without much thought, thinking about finding a quiet place to spend the night.

Taiyuan City is surrounded by mountains on three sides: west, north and east. Liu Shuang left the city without thinking much and continued to the north, and came to a hill at the beginning of the moonlight.

The mountain is not too high, but the trees are dense and the mountain rocks are numerous, and the scenery looks quite chic.

It was already night, Liu Shuangli went up the mountain casually, picked the tallest tree on the hillside, and then performed light skills and jumped up, and landed steadily on the big tree pole, and the person leaned on the branch on the side, as if this big tree was her overnight place tonight.

Because Master said that sleeping directly on the ground will cause heat on the ground, which is not good for the body. So when he decided to sleep in the wild in the future, as long as it wasn't a rainy night, Liu Shuangli would find a big tree, use the big tree pole as a bed, and spend the night on the tree. Of course, sleeping in a tree, in addition to separating the geothermal heat, also has other benefits. First, it is not easy to be discovered, and secondly, she stays in the tree and has a wide field of vision, and she can easily find out the situation in the tree, which is safe and does not hurt herself.

On the night of arriving in Taiyuan, Liu Shuangli still found a big tree on the mountain to rest.

On this night in Taiyuan, the moonlight was very bright. Because he was already extremely tired from the journey, Liu Shuangli came up to the tree, hugged the big tree pole with both hands, closed his eyes and immediately fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, Liu Shuangli had already fallen asleep, but the sudden sound of a sword woke her up from her sleep.

has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and Liu Shuangli has been very sensitive to the sound of swords.

Listening to the sound of sword fighting in the distance, Liu Shuangli quickly recognized that the two sides were fighting very fiercely. Such a voice can only be a death or death killing.

Could it be that some people from the rivers and lakes can't fight this mountain? Liu Shuangli rubbed his eyes, and was completely sobered up by the sound of the sword shouting and killing.

She leaned on the branch of a large tree in search of prestige, but the sound was too far away, and the night was too deep for her to see, even if she was on a high place, she could not see the two sides of the sword fight. She could only prick up her ears and listen, discerning that the sound was still hundreds of meters ahead. Listening carefully, I found that as time went by, the sound of the sword was getting louder and closer.
