Daxing originates from the Bianhe River Basin, a magnificent and winding Bianjiang River divides 80,000 miles of rivers and mountains into north and south banks. Bianzhou is the gateway to the south of the Daxing River, and the capital Bianhe City is located at the junction of the Bianjiang River and the North-South Canal.

In the evening, the sun sets and the city gate will be closed, and there are still many people waiting in line outside the city to enter the city. A young man with a modest appearance got out of his humble carriage and joined the procession into the city.

Next to the city gate, a list was posted on the city wall, and a group of young and middle-aged people gathered under the list and pointed.

The young man looked up from the line and couldn't see what was written on the list, but the crowd was talking about it.

"In the past, the imperial court recruited soldiers, mostly in the north, why did you urgently order Jiangnan to recruit troops this time?"

"Xu is a conscription in the north for many years, and there are many grievances. There was no war in the south of the Yangtze River, and the naval army was not good at horse warfare, so they had to recruit new soldiers and send them to the northwest. ”

"Alas! It's war again...... At the beginning of the year, Mobei Hulu invaded our northwest border pass, and General Yuan led the northwest wolf army to defend the mountains and rivers, and now tens of thousands of soldiers have been stained with blood! At the time of the national disaster, the imperial court issued a list to recruit soldiers, but His Majesty set up dragon boats in the Bianhe River, widely selected male concubines, and ...... in the palace night and night"

"Shhhh Shut up! You don't want to live anymore? ”

The man was shocked to lose his words, and hurriedly glanced around, seeing that the guards at the city gate were busy checking the road guides and identity documents of the people entering the city, and did not pay attention to this side, so he breathed a sigh of relief and shut up and did not dare to say anything more.

The emperor is now in Bianhe City, which is not uncommon for the people of Daxing.

Daxing Guozuo has been 600 years ago, and the world has been laid on the foundation of Bianzhou. After Emperor Gaozu set the capital of Shengjing, he ordered the construction of the palace in Bianhe City, and the emperors of the subsequent dynasties had the practice of coming to the Bianhe Palace to stay.

It's just that the saints come up more frequently and stay longer.

The emperors of the past dynasties of Daxing all love to come to the palace in March, fireworks in March, the spring beauty in the south of the Yangtze River, one can enjoy the scenery, and the other can avoid the severe cold of Shengjing. Today's saints prefer June, and the emperor lives in the palace for half a year, and only returns to Shengjing in the month of Layue, every year.

The summer heat in the south of the Yangtze River is hot in June, and the moon in Shengjing is cold, and I heard that every year the palace people who go south and north with the emperor will die on the road because of this scorching heat and cold.

This behavior is quite faint, and it is true.

Today's saint is the grandson of the first emperor, and it is not his turn to sit on the throne.

Eighteen years ago, on the eve of the first century, there was a change in the DPRK and China.

The first emperor died in the palace, and the Zuo Xiangyuan family and the subject country Nantu joined forces to launch a palace change, and beheaded the two people in the palace banquet in the name of the three kings and the seven kings to kill the king, and washed the palace city in blood.

I don't know whether the name of the king is true or false, but I know that the first emperor had nine sons, and the battle for the throne was fierce. The five kings were frail, lingering on the sickbed, and only the princess was under his knees. The six kings are cowardly, the wine is colorful, and they are unbearable to be emperors. Yuan Guifei summoned the six princes and concubines to the palace, raised them under her knees, and tried her best to ensure that she ascended the throne as the emperor.

Bu Xihuan ascended the throne at the age of six, and the Yuan family was an auxiliary government, but he showed a bit of absurd and uninhibited temperament since he was a child.

I heard that he accepted the palace concubine at the age of thirteen, and indulged in lust in the harem, and in only one summer, five of the eight palace concubines died; At the age of fifteen, he was good at manhood, and he actually selected handsome men from all over the world to enrich the Bianhe Palace; At the age of seventeen, he flourished in dragon boats, and since then he has carried thousands of male concubines to swim in the Bianjiang River every year. The river is magnificent, the dragon boat is luxurious, the silk and bamboo along the way are endless, and the cost of the past state capital is 10,000 gold.

There has long been a nursery rhyme among the folk - "Jade horse, Jiuhua car, who pities the child Lang Yan Ruyu." Dragon boat Xing, Cuihuajing, rivers and rivers are 100,000 gold a day. "It is said that the emperor indulges in extravagance and is absurd.

But there are also nursery rhymes among the folk - "Iron horse neighing, silver gun dancing, desert Hengge shaking Hulu." Yuanmen Xing, Jin Jia Dang, ten years of border heroes. "I'm talking about the commander of the Northwest Army, Yuan Xiu.

Yuan Xiu is the concubine of the Yuan family, the mother of the Empress Dowager, but his ambitions are not in the court.

He joined the army at the age of fifteen, rode alone, won the head of the king of Rong in the army, and shook the world in a war! At the age of seventeen, he led 8,000 elite cavalry to attack the Ledan tooth tent, annihilated 30,000 cavalry of Ledan, and killed the prince of Ledan; At the age of eighteen, the Northwest Frontier was reorganized and the Northwest Army was established; At the age of 20, he served as the general of the Northwest Army, with strict military training and strict military discipline, and was deeply loved by the people of the Northwest.

In the past ten years, Marshal Yuan Xiu's Northwest Army has garrisoned the northwest and has not returned to Beijing for a day.

In the past ten years, the Wuhu iron rider on the Mobei Plateau has never opened the border gate for a day.

The 200,000 elite troops in the northwest border pass are known as the northwest wolves, which is an iron defense in the Daxing border pass. Three years ago, the Rong people invaded the border, and the Northwest Army won thirteen battles and thirteen victories, beheaded 50,000 Hulu, and hung the border city wall. The desert is fierce and sandy, and it still can't cover the blood on the city wall.

In the past three years, there have been few wars at the border passes, and Mobei has been quite peaceful. But for some reason, at the beginning of the year, the Rong people, Di people, Una, Ledan, and Yueshi Wuhu, who were not in harmony with each other, joined forces and sent a total of 300,000 troops to raid the northwest border pass.

Now, Hu Lu is on the border, the soldiers in the northwest are stained with blood, but the emperor is looking for joy in the palace, no wonder the people's resentment is boiling.

However, no matter how much public grievances come to this Bianhe City, they have to shut up and swallow their grievances in their stomachs.

Twilight doesn't have much resentment about the current state affairs, she is a soul from another world, and even though she has lived in this feudal dynasty for sixteen years, she still has no sense of belonging to this era. She fell into the lowly ranks, if it weren't for her skills, her life would really be inferior to ordinary people. The ruling class is far away from her, and she is not even interested in hearing such rumors in the world.

National affairs, world affairs, there are superiors to worry about, it is not her turn to be a small person like her, she is enough to worry about family affairs.

At that time, there was no nurse in the city who was willing to feed her, and if it weren't for her father's refusal to give up on her, she would not have had a chance to grow up in this era. Her father raised her, and she used this life to support him for the rest of her life.

As for what happened in the DPRK and China eighteen years ago, and what is the identity of her mother's family, she is not interested in knowing.

Twilight looked up at the city gate, and there were only a few people left in the long line ahead, and it was soon her turn. She lowered her eyes, and once again changed into that silly and cowardly look, and the defenders who checked her guide and identity document really looked at her name twice, and saw that she was not unusual, and let her into the city.

The sunset is about to set, the afterglow dyes the river sky, and there is a majestic city in the first line of Danxia. The sky is not dark, the city has been lit up, and the bluestone long street is full of fire trees and silver flowers, if the heavenly river falls into the world. Before the night came, the street has heard the sound of the boat song boat, the hustle and bustle of the teahouse and the gambling house shop has risen, the tea-flavored wine balsam powder fragrance has spread over the long street, the men in the past have wide sleeves like the wind, and the women have skirts, gradually spreading out a splendid picture, and the ancient city is prosperous for six hundred years.

When Twilight first arrived at Bianhe City, she did not lose her way, she stood at the city gate for a moment, took a general look at the layout of the city, and then went straight to the west of the city.

There are many shops in the west of the city, blacksmith shops, jewelry shops, silk and satin villages, and other streets, which are bustling and lively, but it seems that the last street is a little deserted. Twilight went to the deserted street, where a few white lanterns were hung, and the shops under the lanterns were all longevity shops. Twilight passed by those longevity shops, and the steps did not stop, and went straight to the end of the street.

At the end of the street, close to the city wall, an official gate is closed, there is not even a lantern in front of the door, the night looks gloomy, relying on the faint light of several longevity shops in the distance to see the big characters on the plaque in front of the door - Yizhuang.

This righteous village is not a village for the poor, but for the dead. Most of the mortuaries in Yizhuang were too poor to be buried, or they died in a foreign country waiting for their families to be transported back for burial. Among them, the corpse to be examined by the government will stink because of disgust and placed in the yamen, and it will also be transported to Yizhuang, and then let it be examined.

To put it bluntly, Yizhuang is a morgue.

Dad came to Bianhe City for an autopsy with an official document from the Assassin's Mansion more than half a month ago, and it was right to come to Yizhuang to find him.

Thinking about it, Twilight stepped forward and knocked on the door.

After a while, the door opened, and out came a thin old man with a hunchback, sleepy-eyed look, and a surprised look on his face.

"Sir, I'm looking for someone. May I ask Gushui County to be old in the twilight of Huai Mountain, can it be in the village? Twilight knew why the gatekeeper was surprised, there were always few people on Shoucai Street, and people who didn't have nothing in vain were even bad luck passing by, and even fewer people came from the gate of Yizhuang. Even if someone comes, it is during the day, and at night, few people dare to come, except for pretending.

But she is a man, two lifetimes of work, others are afraid of dead bodies, but she has seen all kinds of reasons, there is no reason to be afraid.

Twilight didn't go, and she didn't say anything about it, she just got straight to the point and said what she meant.

When the hunchbacked old man heard this, his face suddenly changed, and his eyes looked obscure in the darkness, so he nodded and said, "It turns out that he is here to find Old Dusk, come in, the person is in the Zhuangzi." ”

With that, he turned around and entered the Zhuangzi, and Twilight followed the old man, seeing him hunched over and carrying a white lantern, and his back was a little gloomy and lifeless in the darkness.

"The Twilight family hired you, right?" The old man's voice came through his back, and he said as he walked, "You kid is a bold man, and he has never dared to come to Yizhuang to carry a corpse at night." ”

Twilight was stunned for a moment, and rarely came back to her senses.

But I saw the old man continue to walk forward, "Why are you alone?" The Twilight family didn't hire more people? I can tell you that a person can't carry a corpse, he can only use it on his back. You've got to hold back the smell. ”

Twilight has stopped.

"When did the Twilight family hire you, why did you come now? On a rainy day in June, the corpses decomposed very quickly, and a few days later, the people were transported out of the city and buried in mass graves, and remained in the city for fear of causing the plague. ”

The old man chattered, and the person had already gone up the steps, and the white lantern in his hand shone on the ground in the hall, "Oh, there are people, look at it." ”

Twilight stood in the courtyard, looking at the faint light, only to see a person rolled in a straw mat on the ground, showing a pair of legs, and wearing a pair of official boots on his feet......-
