Lishan, in the south of Xinfeng County, the Qin Dynasty was Liyi, in the Western Zhou Dynasty, it was called 'Lirong Kingdom'.

The story of the famous princes of the Beacon Fire Opera is said to have taken place in Lishan.

It is still a little far from Nanling to Lishan.

If you are trekking, you will need to walk for at least two days.

Therefore, after breakfast, Zhang Yue packed his bags, said goodbye to his sister-in-law and Zhao Rouniang, and embarked on the road to Lishan.

Walking out of the house, Zhang Yue felt the neighbors who were close to him from the surrounding area, and they all focused their eyes on him.

The village where Zhang's family is located is called Jiating.

Just look at the name, this is the first immigrant village set up in Changshui Township.

The origins of the inhabitants of Kotei are complex.

After a strong family like the Zhang family, there are also branches of officials and nobles, but more of them are rangers!

The son of the old Liu family hates two groups the most in his life.

First, the ranger, the second son-in-law.

The rangers are all considered to be unstable factors in the social order, and they are severely cracked down!

Those famous rangers in those places, if the magistrate felt that he could not hold it, he would throw the pot to the central government.

The central government has a very simple way to deal with these thorns - move to Guanzhong.

After moving to Guanzhong, these people were immediately put under surveillance.

Dare to jump again?

Tingwei, Zhijinwu, and Sanfu ministers will all laugh from ear to ear.

Back then, how arrogant was the Hanoi hero Guo Xie in the place?

Even the officials of the court dare to kill!

However, it was moved to Maoling, and after only a year, it was dragged to the market and abandoned the city.

The great general Wei Qing wanted to intercede with him, but instead accelerated his demise!

As for the sons-in-law......

is worse than the rangers, even if the rangers are moved to Lingyi and monitored, at least they are free, as long as they are obedient and obedient, they can be dogs for the Liu family, and they can even become eunuchs.

But......

All the sons-in-law, once discovered, have only one end - to repair the earth.

And most of the population structure of Jiating is from all over the world.

It's just that these heroic descendants who once dominated the place and responded to every call have now been smoothed out by the iron fist of the Han Dynasty's dictatorship.

There is no way, Liu is very experienced in dealing with rangers.

During the Yuan Shuo period, the country developed Shuofang and Jiuyuan, and threw away tens of thousands of thorns in one go.

The world suddenly fell silent.

The rangers who are afraid of the border are honest all of a sudden.

Up to now, the residents of the entire Kotei have basically been transformed into loyal, honest, diligent and obedient obedient people.

But there are exceptions.

In this world, there are always some people who are not afraid of death.

"Zhang Jia Erlang ......"

Zhang Yue hadn't gone far when he heard someone shouting behind him.

When he turned around, he saw the man, Zhang Yue smiled and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Li Dalang...... I don't know what Dalang has to do? ”

The man was about thirty years old, extremely stout, with powerful limbs, and was a well-known ranger leader in Changshui Township.

It is said that he also has a big guy who is extremely famous.

In the entire Guanzhong, he is a top ranger, and even the ministers have to be courteous.

However, in these years, the so-called rangers do not have any chivalrous style in martial arts novels at all.

Han Feizi said: Chivalry violates the ban with martial arts, and Confucianism uses literature to mess with the law.

The description couldn't be more correct!

Since the Han Dynasty, the land of Guanzhong has risen and fallen, and countless heroes have appeared.

The best of them even have officials who worship 2,000 stones, which can influence national politics.

However, their existence is the biggest nightmare of the people in Guanzhong.

Because, almost all rangers, there are one or several big people standing behind them.

To put it bluntly, these people are just the black gloves of the ministers and nobles, who specialize in doing dirty things.

Just like back then, the Zhu family followed Xiahou Ying and Chen Ping.

Behind Ji Xin is Yuan An.

Even an honest person like Wei Qing needs to recruit Guo Xie as a thug.

The so-called nothing is not to go to the Three Treasures Palace.

Zhang Yue knew that this person was afraid that the person who came was not good.

"Erlang, I heard that you went to Changyang Palace?" Li Dalang asked with a grin.

"Well......" Zhang Yue replied with a smile: "What does Da Lang have to say?" ”

"Hehe...... Li Dalang laughed twice, approached Zhang Yue, and said in a low voice: "I heard that Erlang is outside the Changyang Palace, angrily reprimanding the powerful, not afraid of violence, I admire ...... very much."

"Huh?" Zhang Yue looked at him, his pupils dilated suddenly.

Angry at the powerful? Not afraid of violence?

Hehe......

"What exactly does Da Lang want to say?" Zhang Yue asked softly: "Don't use those words to deceive three-year-old children......

"Erlang is suspicious......" Li Dalang said hesitantly: "so that Erlang knows...... Since the beginning of the day, there have been unconscious officials and lackeys, intending to frame Erlang and colluding with the Qin prisoner Zhu Anshi......"

When Zhang Yue heard this, his hand was already pressed on the hilt of the sword at his waist.

Zhu Anshi?

That's the most wanted criminal today.

This person is nicknamed Yangling Hero, once rampant in Guanzhong, has the ability to respond to a hundred calls, when he is prominent, he enters and exits the mansion of the minister, and is listed as a guest.

It can be said that after Guo Jie, the most famous ranger leader in the land of Guanzhong.

However, in the eyes of the Liu Emperor, the more famous the ranger is, the more damned he is!

Unless this Ranger is his own dog! Such as the Zhu family, the leader of the rangers at the time of Emperor Gao.

Obviously, Zhu Anshi did not learn the lessons of his predecessors, and after his prominence, he became more and more flamboyant and acted unscrupulously, and finally annoyed the present day, and was included in the list of Qin criminals, and ordered the three auxiliary ministers and the prime minister, Taichang, and Zhijinwu to arrest them with all their might.

This Zhu Anshi is also powerful, and in the face of the pursuit of the violent institutions of the Han family, he suddenly evaporated from the world and disappeared into the vast sea of people.

Apparently, this man was hiding in the house of a minister who had been ordered to capture him.

This is not surprising.

Back then, Ji Bu was wanted by Emperor Gao, so he hid in the Zhu family's house.

The relationship between the Tuozhu family and the then servant Xiahou Ying interceded in front of Emperor Gao.

Later, Ji Bu's younger brother Ji Xin, who committed a crime of murder and was hunted down by Taizong, Ji Xin hid in the mezzanine of Yuan An's carriage and fled to Kanto.

As for Guo Jiewei's current take, the general Wei Qing came forward to intercede.

History clearly tells Zhang Yue that it is likely that this current criminal is hiding in the residence of a certain current henchman.

And Zhu Anshi's comrades and accomplices have since become the trump cards of the magistrates to seize and extort money.

In the name of arresting the Qin criminals' fellow party members and accomplices, Guanzhong has been the land of Guanzhong, and there have been four unjust cases in the past few months.

The bureaucrats relied on Zhu Anshi, a prisoner, to eat with a mouth full of oil and a big belly.

Someone once accused himself of being a 'fellow offender'?

Zhang Yue's palms were clenched, and they were already full of sweat.

It was his first encounter with the darkness and chaos of this pre-AD world.

For the first time, I felt how humble and insignificant my existence was!

If others want to deal with him, they don't need to take action in person, one or two officials can ruin his family!

Entering the prison, under the six trees, what else can he do?

Shouting grievances?

Joke!

Since Yang can come, the wronged people in the world are like carp crossing the river, like the sand of the river.

One more of him is not more, and one less of him is not less.

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Yue looked at Li Dalang again.

As an old fritter who has been up and down in a state-owned enterprise for several years, Zhang Yue certainly knows that this person is by no means casually and for no reason to come to tell him the news.

He knows better that he has not been taken away by the officials and put into prison until now, and there must be a reason.

But the other party didn't speak, just arched his hand and said to Zhang Yue: "Erlang, I still have some things today, wait a few days, and I'll come to you again......"

After speaking, there was a roar, and several younger brothers came over with a horse, and he turned over and rode away.

Zhang Yuemu sent him away, and then turned forward.

Although this man didn't seem to say anything, the words he handed over were real.

Obviously, he said that 'there are unconscious officials' who want to frame him.

But why didn't it come?

The original master bedroom has been sick in bed for more than ten days, and the so-called 'comatose official' has been watching the play next to him? It's impossible.

Obviously, there is a hand from the top that suppresses the actions of some people.

So who's helping him?

Zhang Yue didn't know, and the other party wouldn't be stupid enough to tell him, 'Ah, Zhang Erlang, your life is so good, so-and-so will support you, ......'.

However, someone must have made a move!

So who is it?

The anti-Confucian forces dormant in the DPRK and China?

Still is......

Gongsun He's political enemies?

Tilt or ......

More directly, from some big man in the depths of the court?

Zhang Yue couldn't guess it at all, but he knew that the meaning of the other party sending this person over couldn't be more obvious.

Pawns who cross the river, go forward.

If you dare to take a step back, you will spoil his spirit, then die!

That person, helping himself, is never a good intention.

Considering the current strange political situation, Zhang Yue knows very well that he may not even be the opponent's chess piece.

It is very likely that it was just that the original owner was outside the Changyang Palace and publicly scolded the Gongsun clan or the Confucian scholars, and the other party casually protected himself.

Purely just want to disgust each other and entertain yourself.

Zhang Yue's life and death, he didn't care at all, all he cared about was how much damage Zhang Yue could inflict on his enemies.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yue smiled dumbly.

Continuing onward, only a few dozen paces, a carriage came from a galloping road in the distance.

The carriage is magnificently decorated, and the doors are edged with gold leaf, so you can imagine how rich the owner was.

The driver who drove the car, dressed in a strong suit, had a face full of meat, which made people look a little frightened.

A package was thrown down from the carriage and thrown at Zhang Yue's feet, the package smashed on the ground, cracked, and the five baht coins were scattered all over the place.

"Zhang Erlang, this 5,000 yuan was rewarded to you by my master!" A yin and yang voice came from the carriage: "Hurry up and pick it up, thank my master for the reward!" ”

Zhang Yue looked at the carriage, and then looked at the five baht coins scattered on the ground, and a sneer overflowed from the corner of his mouth: "Dare to ask the master of the honorable driver?" ”

"You don't need to care about this, in short, after taking the 5,000 money, you will go to the Yuan Mansion in the east gate of Nanling County, apologize to my son-in-law, and say: Zhang Zizhong of Nanling, worship the son, the child's knowledge, admiration, enough to make me ashamed, and I am willing to go for ......the son's door" The man said in a commanding tone, very domineering.

"What if I don't obey?" Zhang Yue asked lightly.

"Not from?" The man laughed wildly for a while as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, as if in his eyes, there was no one in this world who dared to say no in front of his master's orders.

"Five thousand isn't enough, is it?" The man paused for a moment and said, "Then 50,000 yuan!" ”

Saying that, five golden cakes were thrown in front of Zhang Yue.

The yellow-orange-orange gold dazzled his eyes.

Han Dynasty gold, usually in the form of gold cakes, a gold cake standard weight of two hundred and fifty grams.

These five golden loaves are 1,225 grams.

Even in later generations, Zhang Yue had never seen so much gold in front of him.

The man looked at Zhang Yue through the car curtain, and said with a smile: "How about it, it's enough now!" ”

In this world, money can make grinding ghosts!

The country can even pay money to redeem his life for capital crimes, and even, when today's son also sets up a Dongdong called Wugong Jue, he will give him the title if he gives money, and the money and goods are two, and Tong Su is not bullied!

As for human life?

Among the nine cities of Chang'an, there are countless outlaws guarding the market every day.

As long as you give money, some people are willing to sell their lives!

Life is now, it's not worth it!

Zhang Yue lowered his head, looking at the gold cake and five baht coins on the ground, his eyes calm.

"You all think I'm just an ant...... Insignificant......" he whispered.

Just now, that Li Dalang came to him with an order that I don't know who it was, let him stand hard, he couldn't back down, he was threatening both inside and outside the words, and if he dared to admit defeat, then die!

Now, someone has sent another dogleg to take the money and humiliate him wantonly.

In the eyes of these people, he is nothing more than an ant.

You can pinch it to death at will.

But......

Zhang Yue raised his head and told himself word by word: "I'm not an ant!" ”

"Sooner or later, one day, today's humiliation will be repaid a hundredfold!"

Then, with a kick, he kicked away the five-baht coin and the gold cake in front of him, and strode forward.

"Young man, don't be dissatisfied, don't be insatiable...... the voice of the man in the carriage came: "You can only be worth five thousand dollars at most, and you can give you hardware, which is already the grace and promotion of my lord!" ”

"Hahahaha......" Zhang Yue heard it and laughed loudly: "My generation of old Huang people does not eat food in my life!" ”

"Young man, don't make mistakes!" The man sneered.

"Hahaha......" Zhang Yue stepped forward, strode forward, and sang while walking: "Dapeng rises with the wind one day, and it is 90,000 miles above!" If the wind stops, it can still be dusted but the water is clear. When the world saw my constant tune, they all sneered when they heard Yu Dayan. Xuan's father can still be afraid of the afterlife, and her husband is not young! ”

The singing is far away, and the sound is heard for miles.

On top of the carriage, a rich middle-aged man with a big belly was sitting in the carriage.

"Your Excellency...... Do you want to ......?" asked the driver in a low voice.

As he said this, he had already grasped the short knife at his waist.

To him, killing people is nothing.

This is true even in broad daylight.

Among the nine cities of Chang'an, there are outlaws who are willing to help themselves for money.

Three or five thousand dollars is enough for a person to go to the government and turn himself in.

The middle-aged man held his ribbon, shook his head and said, "No need......

Playing with the song that came to his ears, he laughed: "Dapeng rises with the wind one day? It's okay, and see how high you can fly? ”

In his life, he has followed his old master to see countless people, and he has also seen countless winds and waves.

"Perhaps, this is a good chess piece......" he thought to himself.

But......

Whether he can be a chess piece depends on whether this young man can pass the current pass.

"Anyway...... It doesn't matter......" the middle-aged man laughed.

In his eyes, the world is an ant before money!

And his old master, who has a lot of money, is already moldy.

…………………………

In the distance, on the other side of the Changshui River.

A horse-drawn carriage is parked at the ferry port, waiting for the ferry to pick up.

An old man sat in a carriage.

The distant singing came into his ears, and the old man opened his eyes: "Father Xuan is especially afraid of the next generation, and the husband can not be young ......" chewing the lyrics, he laughed.

This lyric reminded him of his youth.

Those unruly years, those ambitions that are not understood by outsiders.

"Come, go find the young man who is singing, and meet me......," the old man ordered.

"No!" The left and right attendants immediately received the order.
