Chapter 1 May there be peace for the side

Next Chapter

The second and third seven years of the Song calendar are the fifth year of Yuanfeng.

Floods and droughts have continued for years, causing people to be displaced and uprooted from their homes.

In the past few years, the number of displaced people on the border of various counties and state capitals has increased dramatically. Thousands of people die of hunger and plague everywhere every day.

Emperor Huazong of the Song Dynasty was mediocre and incompetent in his later years, only greedy for pleasure and ignored the government. The political discipline of the imperial court was corrupt, the central ministers were vying for power, the competition between the left and right parties was fierce, and the whip was beyond the reach of the localities, so that corrupt officials and corrupt officials emerged in an endless stream in various places, and the salaries of the disaster were deducted.

The official money sent by the imperial court to various places has been divided before it leaves Beijing, and even if some are revealed, it will be embezzled by the local government, and it is impossible to distribute it to the disaster place.

The displaced people who had not been appeased for a long time accumulated grievances, and eventually riots broke out, and bandits were rampant in various places, and the soldiers who went to suppress the bandits were deducted because of their military salaries, coupled with the lack of military discipline and repeated defeats on the way to the expedition, resulting in a huge wave of banditry. What's more, they conquered the county town and grabbed money and food.

Anyuan County, located at the junction of Jingzhou and Luozhou, is the first county of Qingyuan County, with a unique location, surrounded by mountains on both sides, standing near the Han River, an official road leads directly to Tianjing, and the city wall is wide and tall. It is a bustling city with a constant stream of merchant and passenger ships, and its inhabitants live and work in peace and contentment, without being affected by disasters and bandits.

Looking towards the west gate, I saw hundreds of officers and soldiers wearing red armor, escorting several carriages full of large boxes from the west gate. Pedestrians and merchants avoided the streets, and when they reached Central Street, they turned to the south gate.

When they approached the city gate, they were stopped by the guards at the south gate, and after a partial general in the team talked to the captain of the city, the captain of the city guard gave way.

But behind them, two people walked out, took one of the carriages and headed for the county guard's mansion, while the rest went out of the city and headed south.

After walking twenty or thirty miles, we arrived at a ferry, and there was already a large ship and more than a dozen small boats waiting.

It was the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, and you could feel a hint of coolness when the river breeze hit.

The riverside ferry was surrounded by a crowd of officers and soldiers, and some curious people did not dare to move forward when they saw that it was officers and soldiers. But there were still those who dared to get a closer look, and the result was undoubtedly driven away. Out of nowhere, some laborers were found to carry the boxes to the ship.

Wang Rui on the side couldn't help but be a little curious when he looked at these, so he shook Wang Yongdao beside him.

"Uncle, what do you say is in this box?"

Wang Yong turned his head and glanced at Wang Rui, frowning slightly.

"I don't know, and I don't want to."

"Uncle, why did they take away a car just now?"

"You used to be very smart, why are you confused now."

"Well, uncle, I'm just curious."

"The box is official silver"

"Official silver! That's what they ...... just now."

"Yes, that's what you think, but that's the way the world is."

"Then what are all these official silver used for?"

"Sent to Huangzhou to provide relief to the victims."

"Uncle, doesn't this court care about this?"

"Tube! Hmph, how to care, what to take. ”

Wang Rui was still a little unwilling.

"But uncle, what about them, ......"

"I've seen a lot and I'm naturally used to it, and it's inevitable that you will be a little angry when you travel with the army for the first time. Okay, don't ask, save yourself from getting into trouble, get on board! ”

Without waiting for Wang Rui to react, he followed the team and slowly got on the boat. Wang Rui couldn't help but be a little touched when he looked at his uncle's still upright back, his uncle left home at the age of eighteen and served in the army for more than 20 years, but he was only a partial general under the account of a fictitious general.

Wang Rui also asked that his uncle didn't want to say more about Wang Rui, but this time his uncle was for his own good.

This Wang Yong is the partial general who talked to the captain of the city gate, and after more than 20 years of being a soldier, Wang Yong has seen a lot of this kind of thing, but there is no way. His own generals didn't speak, and maybe the generals were involved. I can't manage it myself, I can't manage it, and I don't dare to manage it.

After everyone got into the boat, they slowly sailed to the other side of the river, and everyone on the boat put aside their spears or sabers, and gathered in twos and threes to gossip.

Wang Yong also found a place with many people to sit down.

Only Wang Rui held the hat on the edge of the boat in his hand and thought about something in a daze.

Jiang Feng lifted the green silk on Wang Rui's face, and he could clearly see a clear white face with some Confucianism, and there was also some melancholy.

Except for Wang Yong, who glanced over here from time to time, the others didn't pay attention to this side at all.

It's just a joke about themselves, either the pink in this hook bar or the willow green of the green building......

Looking at the rippling river due to the boat, Wang Rui felt a little emotional.

When a little girl fell into the water, Wang Rui jumped without thinking about it, and after jumping down, Wang Rui found that he couldn't water, and he didn't save himself and put himself in.

When I woke up, I was already in this world, and the owner of this body was bedridden as soon as he found his uncle, and many Lang Zhong said that he was unable to return to the sky, so he crossed over to this person's body and inherited the memory of the original owner.

After learning about this world according to his memory, Wang Rui followed his uncle to join the army. I don't know if it's the favor of God or the welfare of crossing, Wang Rui's thin body contains earth-shattering divine power, and he feels that he has inexhaustible strength all over his body, so Wang Rui is not bad in the army.

But the experience in the memory of the original owner is remembered by me one by one, the grief when he lost his parents is vivid, those white bones are shocking, and the despair again and again.

The previous world has nothing to do with itself.

But this time, in this troubled world, I don't seek to dominate the world. I just want to protect the peace of one party safely, protect what I want to protect, so that others dare not easily infringe.

As if he had made some kind of decision, Wang Rui frowned lightly, and looked at the river with slightly squinted eyes.

Suddenly, some black spots in the distance attracted Wang Rui's attention, but he couldn't see what they were clearly, and when these black spots got closer and closer, Wang Rui took a closer look, it didn't matter if he didn't look at it, this look stunned Wang Rui and muttered softly.

"I'm a good girl, this, where did so many boats come from!"
