Luoyang
In a wine shop
After Yin Lang drank a glass of wine, he smiled and said: "Alas, when I came to Luoyang, Yin Lang can be said to have achieved nothing, and he wasted his life like this every day." If all the young men in the world were like me, wouldn't they all waste their good future? Don't take me as an example! β
Opposite Yin Lang is Liu Yuanhai, who has been inseparable recently, it is strange to say, the two of them can't tell who is interested in whom first, in short, the two of them have become friends with wine and meat, and they are both protons, they have nothing to do all day long, either drinking and having fun in the wine shop, or enjoying the wind and snow in the hook bar. I have to say that this Luoyang is good, whether it is a wine shop or a goulan, it is a place that can reach the grade.
Yin Lang is under the leadership of Liu Yuanhai, a skilled hand, in the past two months, he has been familiar with the way, but, on the other hand, the gold and silver in Yin Lang's hands are rapidly decreasing, Yin Lang is also anxious, so he thinks about the way to get rich, just think about it, there is no good idea, Liu Yuanhai This guy is also trying his best to provoke and tease, Yin Lang can't help but want to follow every time, according to this, it won't take long for the silver money brought by this trip to run out, this day Yin Lang still followed Liu Yuanhai fooling around, The two of them drank a meal, and their eyes were a little confused.
Yin Lang said: "Brother, your stay in Luoyang is not short, when you are familiar with the customs of Luoyang, I don't know if you have any good ideas to help the younger brother solve his confusion?" β
Liu Yuanhai smiled obscenely and said to Yin Lang: "Boy, there are more ways to make money, but how can it be what people like you and me can do?" Besides, what are you afraid of if you lack money? If it's a big deal, the court can't let us starve to death or wander the streets, right? β
Yin Lang sighed, burped, and said, "Brother, I still have to find a way to get some money, otherwise, I won't be able to drink flower wine with the top girl, hehe!" "When he thinks of those so-called top girls, Yin Lang feels happy, it's good, these things are what he is best at, isn't this what he works hard for? It's good now, when I came to Luoyang, I had everything, everything was perfect, and the only thing that was a little lacking was: no money.
When the old man and the young were sighing for a long time, suddenly there was an extra hand and a glass of wine between the two, and the person who came said: "The two brothers are talented, and at first glance they are heroic warriors, and I have a deal here." I wonder if you two are interested in trying it? β
Yin Lang was a little disgusted by this person, and glanced at it obliquely, only to see that the person who came had bright eyes, an angular face, and a scar on his forehead, and the whole person gave people a feeling of strong oppression.
Liu Yuanhai was much calmer than Yin Lang, just smiled slightly, and said, "You might as well talk about it!" β
The man smiled coldly and said, "I can only buy and leave this deal, and I will not regret it, can you two be ready?" β
Liu Yuanhai smiled, just stood up and pulled Yin Lang, and said: "Since this is the case, I'm afraid we don't have the courage to do so, this brother, farewell!" After finishing speaking, he pulled Yin Lang out of the wine shop.
Yin Lang was still surprised, so he was pulled by Liu Yuanhai and ran a few times and then ran into a small alley, Liu Yuanhai let go of his hand, Yin Lang said to Liu Yuanhai with some dissatisfaction: "Brother, are you in a hurry?" Is it necessary for us to be so panicked? β
Liu Yuanhai breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said: "Fang Cai, it's better for us to keep a certain distance from him, so as not to get into trouble, don't forget, you and I are both protons!" It represents the reconciliation between the clan and the court, and we must be more cautious! β
Yin Lang pouted disdainfully, what kind of big man could it be? Still so nervous?
Liu Yuanhai glanced at Yin Lang, and just said lightly: "This person is Qi Wannian!" β
Yin Lang muttered two sentences in his mouth, and said repeatedly: "Qi Wannian? Qi Wannian? Even... Years? "Ahh Yin Lang suddenly let out a surprised cry, it turned out to be Qi Wannian! This is a real person! I actually talked to such a person! OMG!
Liu Yuanhai said lightly: "Boy, there are some things we can do, and some things we can't do!" The imperial court can allow us to spend all day drinking in Luoyang or even picking quarrels and provoking troubles to engage in some stealing chickens and dogs, this is to show the court's heavenly temperament, not to be as knowledgeable as us barbarians, but if we have any different thoughts, hehe, then wait for the court to use thunder means to clean you up! β
Yin Lang was probably clear in his heart, thinking that he could learn more about Liu Yuanhai, so he asked Liu Yuanhai: "Brother, what is the origin of this Qi Wannian?" Can you tell the kid about that? β
Liu Yuanhai glanced at Yin Lang lightly, took two steps and leaned against the wall, and then said slowly: "This Qi Wannian, everyone says that he is a Di person, but in fact, there are different opinions on whether he is a Di person or not. But he is definitely not a large or small aristocratic Qu Shuai of the Di tribe, he can only be regarded as a Di people who have lost his tribe. β
Liu Yuanhai let out a long sigh and continued to say slowly: "At the beginning, the Shu Han Dynasty went on a northern expedition for many years, and the Di tribe was collected by Cao Wei of the former dynasty to live in the area of Luoyang in order to escape from the conscription war. However, there are also many Di people who left the tribe during the war and became displaced people or forced labor in the army. By the time our dynasty was established, there were more and more of these displaced people who had left the tribe, some of them became the powerful subordinates of Guanzhong, and some of them gathered in the mountains and forests to become horse thieves and bandits. β
Liu Yuanhai glanced at Yin Lang and continued: "Especially the two kingdoms of Shiping and Fufeng, there are more and more bandits. At first, they killed people and oversold goods, but later they simply killed in the powerful dock fort, causing the powerful people of Fufeng County to move out one after another. When the Fufeng King was inaugurated, the Fufeng Kingdom was a wilderness and the people withered. King Fufeng made an exception to recruit those displaced people who did not become bandits to be household members to reclaim wasteland to increase the tax revenue of the subject country, which was opposed by many ministers of the imperial court at that time, but King Fufeng persevered. When recruiting the Di people to reclaim the land, the Fufeng King also supported a national army of the Di people to suppress the bandit nest composed of the Di people and the displaced people. At this time, someone recommended Qi Wannian, who killed the tiger with his bare hands in Suoyang River. β
Yin Lang was slightly stunned when he heard this, and asked in a questioning tone, "Kill the tiger with your bare hands?" β
Liu Yuanhai nodded, and said with a solemn expression: "This is indeed something, this incident has made Qi Wannian, who was originally a small laborer in the army, famous." King Fufeng first canceled his status as a servant and asked him to form a soldier to suppress the bandits, but in less than half a year, all the bandits in Fufeng Country, whether they were Di people or Han'er, were subdued by Qi Wannian. β
Yin Lang was stunned when he heard this, and said with some surprise: "Is it so powerful?" This man is actually? β
Liu Yuanhai nodded and said: "That's right, Qi Wannian does have two brushes, and King Fufeng made him a fake lieutenant of Fufeng Country because of Qi Wannian's meritorious work in quelling the chaos, and relied on him to control the feudal country." But later, King Fufeng died of illness, and his sons already had a feudal country, so the court changed Fufeng Country to Fufeng County, and Qi Wannian was also deprived of his status as a lieutenant, and the court only gave him thirty horses of silk to go home to farm. β
Yin Lang smacked his lips when he heard this, and said to himself: "Such a person, will you send away thirty pieces of cloth?" Is the imperial court really far-sighted? Did Qi Wannian endure it like this? β
Liu Yuanhai continued: "This is exactly what Qi Wannian is afraid of, originally at this time, the Di people who supported Qi Wannian almost rebelled, but Qi Wannian persuaded them and continued to reclaim the wind with the Di people. Later, the chieftains of the Di people in LΓΌyang, such as Yang Feilong, Dou Shou, and Pu Huaigui, all said that the Di people of Fufeng County were originally their clan slaves, so they brought their troops to loot the population, but they were all killed by Qi Wannian and returned defeated. Yang, Pu, Qiang, Dou, these slaves with the surname of Di people secretly ran to Fufeng to defect to Qi Wannian, and the forces under Qi Wannian became more and more powerful, and in the end he was already the emperor of Fufeng. β
Liu Yuanhai paused and continued: "You also know the rules of the Hu people, whoever has the strongest tribe will serve whoever is the master. Qi Wannian became more and more powerful, and some Xiongnu exile organizations in Beidihu and even Hedong were all based on him. However, Qi Wannian was low-key, never opposed the court, and went to the field to farm, but the court loved and hated him, but there was nothing to do with him. Gong Geng, the leader of the Hu people in the north, is said to be under the orders of Qi Wannian. β
Yin Lang listened carefully to Liu Yuanhai's words, and asked again: "Are the Huns exiles?" Could it be the Hao San brothers? β
Liu Yuanhai was a little incredulous that Yin Lang knew the news, but he didn't ask too much, just nodded and said, "Well, yes, it is the two brothers Hao San and Hao Duyuan. The two brothers were originally two slaves of the Huyan Department, because the imperial court's control of the Xiongnu had become more and more strict since Cao Wei, the Xiongnu were in the same position as nothing, and the commanders of the various tribes were also weak. After the two brothers heard the deeds of Qi Wannian, they colluded with the Xiongnu slaves from all over Hedong to betray the original tribe and became bandits in the Shangdang area. It became another Hu force in addition to the five Xiongnu tribes in Hedong. β
Yin Lang listened to it and pondered for a long time, but he didn't expect that these Hu people who had left the tribe could be twisted into such a powerful force, which is not difficult to explain the reason why the rootless slave Shi Le in history crisscrossed the Central Plains. Fortunately, he vaguely remembered that although Qi Wannian's rebellion was huge, the timing of his incident was not right, and the rebellion of the Eight Kings had not yet arrived*, and the strength of the Jin army was still very strong, and it was quickly extinguished.
Liu Yuanhai continued to say slowly: "Qi Wannian also knows that there are many people staring at him, whether it is the imperial court or the opposition forces of the people and commanders in secret, therefore, Qi Wannian's whereabouts are uncertain, and it is not easy to find him, but now, Qi Wannian has appeared in Luoyang so grandly, I am worried that he is not just coming to Luoyang to take a walk, so he has to hide far away first." β
After listening to Liu Yuanhai's words, Yin Lang was also full of emotion in his heart, he didn't expect his understanding to be so shallow, just after reading a few local stall literature, he felt that he could know everything about this period of history, it seems that his popularity is far from enough! Just people like Qi Wannian who only left one or two strokes in the history books are like this, so how many fierce people are there in this world that are not recorded?
The two of them had their own thoughts on their minds at this time, but they just stood quietly in the alley, and from a distance, the two seemed to merge with the moss-covered wall......
