The Jia Party was completely wiped out, and Sima Lun became more and more domineering in the court. He pretended himself as a minister, a servant, an envoy, a metropolitan governor, a governor of Chinese and foreign military affairs, plus his own title of county king—all of which were top-level power and status symbols: first, the feudal state of Zhao was one of the few great powers in all the fiefs of the Jin Dynasty; Regarding Xiangguo, this is a very special and sensitive position, which is not permanent in normal times, and once it appears, it basically means that it can control the imperial power. Historical experience shows that most of those who hold this position have a heart of disobedience. Not to mention, the ancestors of the Jin family, Sima Yi and Sima Zhaofu Wei, were all in the prime minister's country. Because of this, this position was abolished at the beginning of the establishment of the Jin Dynasty. The first two auxiliary politicians Yang Jun and Sima Liang did not dare to peep here, but now they have been picked up by Sima Lun. Although the servant is also very good, since he is already in the prime minister's country, it is not worth mentioning; Although the governors and governors of the Chinese and foreign military have great power, they are not permanent officials, and for this reason the official means that they can control all the soldiers and horses in the whole world; The envoy is not an official position, but a privilege that functions like a sword. There are three types of privileges in this category, namely, the envoy festival, the festival holder, and the false festival, all of which have the privilege of cutting first and then playing. It's just that the fake festival is specifically aimed at the military, and the festival holder can only kill those who have no official position, so that the festival holder has the greatest power, and he can directly kill officials with a rank of less than 2,000 stones.

From taking charge of the government, to controlling the soldiers and horses, to holding privileges, Sima Lun at this time can no longer be described as a very human minister, basically half an emperor. Of course, he can't be satisfied with being only half an emperor, although it is the world of the Sima family, it is better to control it in his own hands. No matter how big or small you do bad things, you will always have a weak heart. He always felt uneasy with bad intentions, and in order to find a sense of security, he arranged tens of thousands of personal soldiers to protect him. plotted rebellion with his henchmen Sun Xiu and others every day, but the serious government was handled in a mess. Single-mindedly forming a party for personal gain, excluding dissidents, and unscrupulous means to win the hearts and minds of the people. The royal family and the Manchu civil and military families all smelled the unusual smell, and the Jin family had begun to gradually collapse towards a substantial collapse.

Qi Wannian was the first external driver of this collapse, but it did not finally form a climate. In fact, there were several rebellions long before Qi Wannian, but the scale was too small to be worth mentioning.

The first to really form the climate and divide the country was not the northern nomads, but the forces led by the Brazilian Leete. Li Teh is not Chinese, but a descendant of Yixiaojun in the southwest, who was originally a small official in the Guanzhong area. Although Qi Wannian's rebellion was put down on the surface, its legacy was quite deep. The house leak happened to be rainy and rainy, and the area of Qinyong, which was already devastated, suffered natural disasters one after another. In order to survive, many people choose to flee to the Yizhou area. Li Teh also followed these displaced people into Sichuan. However, Li Teh is not an idle person, others are homeless people to survive, in addition to surviving, he is restless and takes the opportunity to rebel.

When there is social turmoil and people are suffering, it is the easiest time to breed rebellion. Anyway, I can't live anymore, and for a while, there are many rebels who follow Li Te, killing officials and harming the people, causing great harm to Shudi. Not only the displaced people, but also the local Qiang who had been discontinued, also began to follow the chaos.

Xiao Mo's clansmen who were imprisoned in the Wenshan County Prison really waited for the imperial court to grant amnesty. Except for the immediate family members of Jiang Liu's thieves, who were sat together, the rest of the people were all released. It turned out that although Sima Lun had ill intentions, the time was not yet ripe, in order to stabilize people's hearts, after appointing an imperial grandson as his successor for Sima Xin, he also set up a queen sheep for him. Both of these are important matters of the state, so it is inevitable that the world will be amnesty.

The tribal chiefs in the Qiang village also practice the family hereditary system. However, the old chief has died, Jiang Liu and other relatives were killed, although there are Huaqing couples, but there is no precedent for a woman to be a chieftain in the clan, Huaqing is a son-in-law, and he is not a Qiang person, nor is he suitable to be a chief, so the whole clan is in a state of leaderlessness. There is only one wizard named Quiriech. This wizard was very capable, and trusted the old chief when he was alive. Quirich is cunning by nature, and he looks loyal in front of the old chief, but he oppresses the people below. At that time, he was afraid of the old chieftain and did not dare to be too blatant, but at this time there were no tigers in the mountains, so he became more and more indulgent. On the surface, the affairs of the clan still have to consult the Huaqing couple, but in fact, he is in charge of his own affairs. Often using the name of a wizard to trick the gods, there are some things that Hua Qing and his wife obviously feel that it is contrary to common sense and unfair, but he pretends to be God's instructions. The more primitive the people, the more they worship God without limits. As long as it is God's will, no matter how ridiculous it is, even if it is a murderous sacrifice, the people dare not complain.

After many years outside, Xiao Mo has seen through: what fame and fortune, love and confidant, are like delicate flowers, they can have a moment of beauty, but it is difficult to always grasp it. She has been silently sacrificing for Brother Shu, and she has done nothing for him all these years. However, the moment we both learned of each other's existence, her first reaction was to let go, and her choice was to wait. With her obsession, she has already lost. Of course, Brother Shu didn't show a trace of inclination between her and me, but no matter how full the summer flowers are, it is difficult to resist the initial spring, how can I be a dove that forcibly occupies the magpie's nest!

After Xiao Mo fulfilled Shu Yan and Zhixin, he rushed to his hometown non-stop. When she came back from Dawan, she made up her mind that she had to spend more time with her parents, not to mention that there had been such a big change in the clan, how could she not worry?

Xiaoxing stayed overnight, rushed to the boundary of Wenshan County on this day, added two more whips, and already saw the eighteen Baimaqiang villages scattered around. Finally arrived home, Xiao Mo breathed a sigh of relief, slowed down the horse's hooves, and deliberately admired the mountains and rivers of his hometown. In front of it is a small stream, the water is murmuring, crystal clear, flowing directly from the mountainside, without human pollution, but real mountain spring water. Xiao Mo was a little thirsty, so he jumped off the horse, picked up the water with his hand and put it to his mouth to drink, it was clear and delicious, and it was really the same taste as a child. The horse was also thirsty, and without waiting for Xiao Mo to lead, he took the initiative to come over and drink. The horse was out of breath just now, and it was not suitable to drink water directly, so Xiao Mo led it to walk by the stream first.

It's getting late. This is a mountain forest, Xiao Mo was walking his horse, and he accidentally caught a glimpse of a figure shaking behind a big tree, and it seemed that he was still shrinking his head and afraid to see people. Xiao Mo was very puzzled, suspecting that he was not a good person, relying on the sword in his hand and the hidden weapon in his body, he was not afraid, so he wanted to find out. When the sword went around the tree, it was a pair of panicked young men and women.

Xiao Meng came out by default, these two people are not bad people, but they are both descendants of their own clan, seventeen or eighteen years old, the man's name is Duba, and the woman's name is Kangma.

When the two of them saw Xiao Mo, they also recognized it, they trembled with fright, and they both knelt down and said, "Little aunt spare your life, we only talk occasionally, we don't do anything, little aunt spare your life." ”

Xiao Mo guessed that this must be a young couple who admired each other and had a tryst here. Maybe it's because the families on both sides don't agree with them being together, so they are so sneaky, afraid of being seen. Thinking of this, she smiled and said, "At your age, many of you are already married, which is very normal. There's nothing unsightly, so why be scared like this? Even if he is discovered, he is just scolded by his family, let alone sparing his life? ”

The two glanced at each other, still trembling, "If we are beaten and scolded, why are we scared like this, it is really life-threatening, please don't tell others." ”

Xiao Mo was very surprised: "Children are going to kill when they make a meeting, what kind of parents are these?" Do not be afraid, for I am the master for you, and I will go and question them. ”

"Little aunt, it's none of our parents' business."

"Oh, that's strange, since it's none of your parents' business, can anyone else interfere with you? If you want to avoid disaster, tell the truth. ”

The two were forced to be helpless. Xiao Mo's identity is naturally superior in the clan, but he can't be provoked. They also knew that Xiao Mo was jealous and hateful, and if they told her the truth, maybe they could really help themselves out of their predicament.

Du Ba hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to say, "Just tell the little aunt the truth." ”

Kangma was still cringing, "No, that will cost you your life!" ”

"So far, what are you afraid of!" As soon as Du Ba's heart was crossed, he told Xiao Mo the truth.

It turned out that Duba and Kangma grew up together since childhood, and they fell in love. When they grew up, when they reached the age of the beginning of love, they fell in love with each other even more. Du Basheng was physically strong, enthusiastic and cheerful, and Kangma became more and more delicate and pretty. This is a very happy couple, and both parents do not object. Just as he was about to discuss the marriage, the sorcerer Quirich performed a ritual in front of the whole clan, saying that a plague was about to descend from heaven, and that only by obtaining the protection of the sheep god could he avoid the disaster. If you want to obtain the protection of the sheep god, you must choose two girls to make sacrifices to the sheep god, one on the new day and one on the sun. The first girl was delivered as scheduled at the beginning of this month, and Kangma was the girl chosen by the sheep god to be delivered on the day of Wang.

This is a very ridiculous thing at all, but the people worship the sheep god very much, not only do they not grieve for the two girls, but they are also very envious of them. Only Kangma himself was terrified and desperate, and secretly asked Du Ba out. Although Du Ba was very sad and indignant, the wizard Quirich had absolute authority in the whole clan, how could he turn the clouds and rain with his own strength? The two of them said their final goodbye here, but they didn't expect to be bumped into by Xiao Mo when they were mourning.

Some people died, but not completely......
