The fourth year of the Great Song Dynasty, Renchen.

Fifty-seven years have passed since the uprising of Xiaobo and Li Shun, the king of Western Shu, and the phenomenon of stealing and selling tea and salt has begun to become common again.

The aftermath of the uprising gained the reputation of "Shu people are difficult to govern". Sichuan became a place for the imperial court to herd sheep and leave it to its own devices, and all kinds of policies and management were very lax, which was very different from the Central Plains and became a special administrative zone.

Fourteen years ago, the Dangxiang people in the border states of the Great Song Dynasty rebelled and established the Western Xia state.

It was also that year that above the Song Dynasty, a term appeared - friends.

Twelve years ago, Ouyang Xiu's "Theory of Friends" consolidated this statement, and also lifted the veil of the Song court's struggle for warmth, and made the problem clear, theorized, and patterned.

Eleven years ago, the Song-Xia War began, and the Song army was defeated at Haoshuichuan.

Ten years ago, the Western Xia counterattacked the Song State with the might of a great victory, and the Song army resisted in Dingchuan Village and was defeated again.

At the time of the national crisis, the Khitans also began to take advantage of the fire to rob, and Fu Bi sent an envoy to the Liao State, agreed on an alliance, and gave 100,000 taels of silk and silver to Xu Sui.

After a long period of negotiations, eight years ago, a peace agreement with Western Xia was finally reached.

The Song State recognized the Western Xia and gave the Western Xia 70,000 taels of silver, 150,000 horses of silk, and 30,000 catties of tea.

In just over a decade, in addition to external troubles, there are also internal worries.

Wang Lun, Zhang Hai, Guo Miaoshan, Jin Zhoumin, Guanghuajun, Guiyang Yangman, Wang Ze...... Riots from all walks of life.

Four years ago, the Yellow River burst its banks at Shanghukou.

Above the court, the shadow of the failure of the Qingli New Deal has not yet dissipated, and the strategy of governing the river has been disputed again, and the order has been changed three times, and it has been delayed for a long time.

Later, because of his relative Zhang Yaozuo, the court dispute broke out again. Song Zhen and Wen Yanbo have been resigned continuously.

This year, after several temptations, Nong Zhigao finally revealed his true face and established the Great Southern Kingdom.

The court couldn't bear it anymore and sent Di Qing to crusade.

Just this year, many customers of the official villages in Kuilu Prefecture fled, and the government enacted a law to rectify it.

A generation of Confucianism, Fan Zhongyan, a model of people's ministers, died suddenly with a heart of concern for the country and the people, and many regrets and regrets.

Or this year, the imperial court ordered Wang Yaochen, Wang Shouzhong, Chen Xu and others to compare Qingli and Huang You's total four years of world wealth in and out, all gold coins, silk, salaries and the like are in their number, and the participation is consumed, to the first year of Huang You, into 12,6251,964, and the remainder of the death.

……

At this time, the Yangtze River was not called the Yangtze River, but only the two names of "big river" or "river". From Jiangling Mansion all the way to the west, through Xiazhou, through the Three Gorges, after crossing Kuizhou, the river will enter the Minjiang section.

The Minjiang River then passes through Luzhou, enters Jiazhou, and then changes to the north.

In the territory of Jiazhou, there are several small rivers flowing in.

The water color of one of them grows green and green in autumn and winter, and the color is lovely. The bamboo forests on both sides of the river are verdant, so people call it "Glass River".

Continue to go up along the glass river, you can see a small hill lying near the river, the mountain is low, the shape is like a toad, this mountain is also called "Toad Mountain" because of the mountain shape.

On the side of Toyi Mountain, there is a small city, named after the mountain like Mei, which is the transit place of Jiazhou and Chengdu - Meishan City.

It is just 160 miles away from Jiazhou and Chengdu Prefecture, and it is an excellent location for water transportation hubs.

The place is not big, but it is very prosperous, the whole Meizhou, the number of households is 30,000, and the number of households in the state is 5,000.

The Great Song Dynasty was governed, divided into roads, prefectures, states, armies, and counties. According to the population and prosperity, it is divided into red, gi, wang, tight, upper, middle and lower.

Among them, Chi and Gi are mostly Beijing and important towns in the world. Although Meizhou is located in the border, it has jurisdiction over three counties and four counties, and can rank fourth among the twelve states of Yizhou Road.

If you go ashore from the South Gate Wharf and pass by the Yeting, you will see the suburbs on both sides of the city are fields and lotus ponds, which is the legacy of Li Bing's water conservancy in those years.

Meizhou lotus root is well-known in the world.

Around the farmhouse, there is also a circle of taro fields, and the varieties are generally local red-billed taro.

The products here are abundant and the taste of red-billed taro is average, so there are not many people who eat it. However, this taro leaf is similar to canna, with red edges and green hearts, which is very cute.

In addition to the famine, people actually use it as greenery.

There is a stone bridge in the south of the city, which the locals call the South Bridge. After crossing the south bridge, there is a low earthen city wall.

After the Song army entered Shu, only four cities were retained, and Meizhou City was new near the southwest border, which was considered a survivor.

There is a gatehouse on the city wall with three big characters on it - "Civilization Gate".

Entering the city from the Civilization Gate, a straight bluestone road stretches to the north, and the houses on both sides of the road are gradually dense.

Sticking to the root of the city wall, the right hand looks not far away, is an official pavilion, called the Guigui Pavilion, there is a pavilion behind the pavilion, it is the Kuixing Pavilion, where the Meishan Post is.

On the left side of the main road, there is the Shuyuan Tower, which can enjoy the river view of the glass river from the upper floor.

There are a lot of festivals in the Great Song Dynasty, February 2, March 3, there are flower markets, silkworm markets, regardless of urban and rural areas, men, women and children gather here, lively and extraordinary.

Continue to the north along the stone road, there is a small stone bridge across the stream, the bridge name is "Tongjin Bridge", which means that the people in the city can get out of this bridge, that is, to go to the wharf, take the waterway to Dajin.

After passing the land temple by the bridge, walk hundreds of steps, and you will arrive at the core area of Meishan.

First there is the Confucian Temple on the east side of the road, the School Department, and then the Meishan Academy.

Behind the academy, on the hillock in the east, there is also a large palace building, which is the crown of Meishan in shape and exquisiteness - Wenchang Palace.

On the west side of the road is the most prosperous commercial area, with rows of shops and signboards.

Among them, there is an alley, which is the Meishan distribution center of Sichuan's most important industry, the textile industry, called yarn and silk shop.

These big commercial houses and big stores deal with the big merchants from Jiazhou Mansion and Yizhou Mansion, which belong to the noble community at this time, and are also the settlement of the local upper-class family, the so-called "Jiang Qing" family.

This is actually a folk custom, of course, it is the unextinguished ember of the gate valve system, which is not advocated by the state, but cannot be banned by the people, both in the north and the south.

Jiang Qing's family has intermarried from generation to generation, and even if the foreign surname is rich, it is difficult to marry Qin and Jin.

The small traders and the lower class are not without a place to go, and there are two consecutive crossroads along the stone road to the north, so that the large streets and city wall structures of Meishan City are like a four-sided opening of the word "use".

On the two crossroads, there is a high platform at the bottom of the four-way, there are also buildings on the platform, the green tile roof of the building, the eaves are facing each other, it is the landmark building of Meishan Town - Daqing Building.

The two Daqing Towers, both of which are official buildings, have bells and drums on the upper floors, and are not open to the public on weekdays.

However, due to the open terrain downstairs, it can be sheltered from the rain, which forms a natural convenient place. As a result, together with the street between the two buildings, I don't know what year it began, spontaneously formed a bazaar.

Small traders love to gather here, and residents like to exchange information and gossip here.

Meishan is a county attached to the county, so there are two yamen, the state capital and the county capital, both of which are located at the junction of the high-end business district and the ordinary business district.

Continue to the north, on both sides of the stone road, there are fire temples and festival workshops on the right hand, and Yuqingguan and Dongyue temples on the left hand.

Further north along the city wall, you will find the northern suburbs of the school.

The residents were busy coming and going, the vendors were shouting and selling, all busy for the day's food and clothing, and they did not find a little child coming north alone, and now they were standing at the corner of the street.

"The old uncle is really, he is so relieved! I'm still a kid! ”

It's been five years since I came into this world.

In the past life, oh no, it should be said that it is the afterlife, he was an orphan who grew up eating a hundred family meals in the village.

His village is a relatively isolated village in the 21st century.

However, the people are kind, and he is indispensable to eat, and he also learned the skills of self-reliance from the villagers when he was young.

He likes to read, but there are not many extracurricular books in the village for him to read, but many old people keep some old books on yellow paper, and he is not picky.

If I had to find another hobby, it would be watching documentaries.

After graduating from university, he was admitted to the civil service system of Meizhou City, and entered the government office as a clerk.

According to his strengths, he has piloted the development of intangible cultural heritage projects in several towns and villages, and he is like a relative with the local intangible cultural heritage inheritors.

The old comrades privately revealed that they were ready to promote him to the director of the Poverty Alleviation Office.

Happy, not for his own achievements, but to celebrate the effectiveness of his thinking, so he got himself a bottle of wine from the small wine shop in the village, and ran to the opposite side of the Giant Buddha in Qingyi River in Jiazhou. And then......

Then the Jiazhou Giant Buddha may have heard it and sent him to this world.
