Luoyang City is located in the north of Luoshui, and the north of the water is called "Yang", so it is called Luoyang.

The mountains and rivers in the territory are vertical and horizontal, the west is close to the Qinling Mountains, the east is adjacent to Songyue, the north is based on the Wangwu Mountain - Taihang Mountain, and according to the danger of the Yellow River, the south looks at the Funiu Mountain, since ancient times, there is a saying that "eight passes are the capital, eight sides are surrounded by mountains, and five rivers surround Los Angeles".

Therefore, it has the name of "the arch of rivers and mountains, and the shape is better than the world", and the name of "the thoroughfare of the ten provinces in the world".

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was called "Luoyang" because people at that time believed in the "Five Elements and Five Virtues." It is believed that Gaozu Liu Bang is the "son of the Red Emperor", and that the Han Dynasty is a fire virtue, and water overcomes fire, so Luoyang is written as "Luoyang".

It was not until the Cao Wei era that Cao Pi changed the word "Luoyang" back to "Luoyang".

"What's the trouble of going north? The north upper edge is too hanging. ”

"The road is steep and steep, and the rocks are in the sky."

"The horse's feet trample on the side stones, and the wheels destroy the high hills."

"The sand and dust are connected to Youzhou, and the beacon fire is continuous."

"Murderous and poisonous sword halberd, Yan Feng tears clothes."

"Running whales and sandwiching the Yellow River, chiseling teeth to Luoyang."

"There is no return to the day of return, and I return to my hometown."

"In the miserable ice and snow, the sorrow is in the gut."

"The ruler cloth is not covered, and the skin is sharply withered."

"Draw water and valley blockage, and collect salary Longsaka long."

"The tiger fell off its tail again, grinding its teeth and frosting."

"The grass and trees are not allowed to eat, and the hunger and drink are zero dew."

"Sigh this bitterness in the north, stop hurting it."

"When will Wang Daoping open his face and see the light of day?"

Zhang Hao looked at the prosperous Luoyang City in front of him, and then thought of the lives of the poor people, Zhang Hao couldn't help but feel moved, and even finally looked up to the sky and shouted, "When is the king Daoping, open his face and see the sky?" ”

At this time, Zhang Hao's elegantness of waving the moon cup and the heroism of drawing a knife and cutting off the water are all gone, replaced by sadness and deep sympathy with tears in his eyes.

Even Tong Fei, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Wen behind him also had a sense of sadness and emotion.

An old man dressed as a scribe waiting in line in front of him to enter the city, with a young girl, who seemed to be a father and daughter, heard Zhang Hao's voice, and the two looked back at Zhang Hao with a surprised face.

The girl's eyebrows are like far away, her eyes are like autumn water, a pair of watery eyes, extremely clear, and the moment she looks back, it makes people feel like looking back and smiling.

"Hey, old man, what's the matter, it's your turn." Just as the old man wanted to step forward to talk to Zhang Hao, the soldiers at the city gate shouted at the old man.

The old man shook his head and led the girl towards the city gate.

After the "stop" inspection, the old man was about to enter the city, when the soldier shouted, stretched out a hand, and sent it to the old man.

"What do you mean by that?" The old man looked at the soldier and asked puzzled.

"Tariff," the soldier said lightly.

"Tariffs? The old man is not in business, and he does not carry goods, what tariff does he pay? The old man's eyes widened and he glared at the soldier.

"Old man, if you don't have money, you can go back and forth, and you don't have money to go to any city."

"You, this Luoyang is the important land of the Son of Heaven, and it is within your duty to guard the city gate, but you have set up a private checkpoint here to loot the people's money, is there any royal law?" The old man said angrily, his voice was thick and full of confidence.

"Wang Fa? Here, Lao Tzu is the king's law, if you don't ask for money, you will get out of here. The soldier said, swinging his fist to hit the old man.

Zhang Hao stepped forward and grabbed the soldier's fist with his hands.

"What are you? I advise you not to meddle in your affairs. The soldier looked at Zhang Hao and said, with a threatening tone in his words.

Zhang Hao took out the usual five-baht coin and threw it to the soldiers.

"I've paid this gentleman's tariff, is this money enough?" Zhang Hao said lightly.

"Enough is enough." The soldier hurriedly nodded.

You can take out the money casually, and it doesn't matter with a face, this person must be a powerful person, but he is not something that a city gate guard can offend.

"Please, sir." Zhang Hao smiled slightly and said to the old man.

"Strongman, this ......" The old man looked at Zhang Hao and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Zhang Hao.

"Sir, this is not the place to speak, let's talk about it in the city." Zhang Hao smiled and said.

"Alas......" The old man sighed, shook his head, and walked towards the city with the girl.

Zhang Hao and Tong Fei followed, walked into the city gate, and sat down in a tavern with the old man.

"Zhuangman, the old man sees that you are also a person who worries about the country and the people, otherwise you wouldn't chant "When will Wang Daoping open his face and see the light of the sky?" "Such a good sentence, but how can you do such a move to encourage unhealthy trends."

Before the old man could sit down, he asked the question in his heart, originally he had heard Zhang Hao's poems, and he admired Zhang Hao very much, but he was a little dissatisfied with Zhang Hao's behavior of giving money to the soldiers defending the city.

Zhang Hao was a little helpless, it seems that this old man is a stubborn person.

"The kid dares to ask Mr. Honorable Surname." Zhang Hao got up and asked with a slight salute.

"Old man Cai Yong, Cai Bojiao." The old man said lightly.

Zhang Hao was stunned when he heard this, Cai Yong took refuge in Jiangnan for twelve years, and it was not until Dong Zhuo was in power that he was forcibly summoned as a sacrificial wine, how could he appear in Luoyang at this time.

Cai Yong refused to be called by the imperial court in his early years, and was later recruited as a subordinate of Situ Peng, serving as Heping Chang, Langzhong, Yilang and other positions, and participated in the continuation of the "Dongguan Hanji" and engraved the Xiping Stone Scripture, and later because of discord with Situ Liu He, he was framed by Liu He and exiled to Shuofang.

"Boy Zhang Hao, Zhang Zihan, I've seen Mr." Zhang Hao hurriedly bowed deeply and said respectfully.

"Oh? But Brother Kang Cheng's righteous son? Cai Yong looked at Zhang Hao in surprise and asked.

"Exactly the boy."

With Zheng Xuan's relationship, Cai Yong and Zhang Hao have a lot of close relationship, chatting with Zhang Hao, and introducing Tong Fei and the three to Cai Yong.

And Cai Yong also introduced the girl around him to a few people, the girl's name is Cai Yan, and the cousin Wen Ji is Cai Yong's daughter.

Zhang Hao glanced at this erudite but ill-fated woman in history, Cai Yan was erudite and talented, good at literature, music, and calligraphy.

He once recorded one volume of "Cai Wenji's Collection", but it has been lost, only two poems of "Poems of Grief and Indignation" and "Eighteen Beats of Hu Ji". and the story of "Wen Ji's Return to Han", which is widely circulated.

Married to Wei Zhongdao for the first time, she returned home after her husband's death. When the Southern Xiongnu invaded, he was taken captive by the Xiongnu Zuoxian King and gave birth to two children. After Cao Cao unified the north, he spent a lot of money to redeem it and marry Dong Ci.

"Zihan, I still don't understand, if you give money to the guards at the city gate, won't it boost their arrogance and make them even more exploiting the people." After chatting for a while, Cai Yong still asked this question.

"Mr. Bo Jiao doesn't know, now that the Han court is corrupt, if it weren't for the orders from above, how could he, a small city gate guard, dare to collect customs duties for entering the city so blatantly." Zhang Hao said lightly.

"What do you mean by Zihan?" Cai Yong asked.

"The kid thinks that these soldiers are just doing what they are told, and even if you can clean up this one, there are thousands of soldiers behind you who will do the same."

"Then the old man will bring the source down." Cai Yong said firmly.

"Sir, this source is not so down." Zhang Hao smiled and said.
