During the reign of Zhao Tuan, he lightly dismissed the light labor, attached importance to production, built water conservancy, provided self-sufficiency for his family, spread cattle and horses all over the field, and entrusted the fields with surplus grain, and there was a scene of the prosperity of the world's Kangning; during this period, the politics were clear, the society was stable, and the economy was prosperous, and the people of the time praised him as 'the first of the emperors of Nandu', and even later generations called him the veritable 'king of Zhongxing' in the Southern Song Dynasty! Benevolence and filial piety govern the country's concept, and personally set an example. In the thirty-ninth year of Shaoxing (1167 AD), coinciding with the 60th birthday of Gaozong Zhao Gou, Zhao Tuan followed the precedent to amnesty the world, and even issued several graces to celebrate with the people.

But in this colorful and joyful atmosphere, the helmsman of the beggar gang located outside Luoyang City was completely miserable and miserable. When he was young, as soon as the two teams of beggar gang disciples were settled, a man with a cold face stepped forward to tidy up the two white flags in front of the door that were dragged and swayed by the wind, and then strode into the hall. This person's name is Yan Zhengzhi, and he is a law enforcement elder who is one of the four elders of the beggar gang who is thunderous in the rivers and lakes. "Is Gang Master Hong back?" After entering the hall, Yan Zhengzhi first glanced at everyone with a cold gaze and immediately asked. 'I have been back for a long time, and the brothers have been waiting for a long time!' and with a sound like a bell, a tall and mighty old beggar flashed into the hall. Seeing this person, the elders in the hall who passed on the gong, held the bowl, and held the stick immediately stood in front of the person on both sides with Yan Zhen. That's right! The person who came was none other than Hong Qi, the leader of the beggar gang who was known as the world's largest gang!

'Have you taken care of everything after the hundred-year brothers?' As soon as he stabilized his figure, Hong Qi asked in a deep voice. 'Back to the helper: Everything has been done, and my sister-in-law and wife have also wrapped up their feet and sent someone to send her back to her parents' house. Elder Tong Jing stepped forward to answer. 'Very good!' Hong Qi only replied, then walked to a corpse placed in the hall, lifted the white cloth on his body, and examined it. Sure enough, it was the same as before! His face and limbs were unscathed, but after seeing a dented palm print between the chest and breasts of the corpse, Hong Qi couldn't help frowning.

I remember that it was at the beginning of Hong Qidai's gang leader: at that time, not long after Master Zhao Weiming left, there were always mysterious people who came to inquire about his whereabouts. However, because Zhao Weiming's whereabouts are like a divine dragon, there is no trace of coming and going, and the master has spoken before parting, Hong Qi can only be perfunctory and hastily dismissed the matter. What Cheng thought, from now on, almost every year the disciples of the Beggar Gang would be killed inexplicably! Moreover, without exception, next to the corpse of each murdered disciple, there would be five big characters of 'hand over Zhao Weiming'; over the past hundred years, nearly 100 disciples had been poisoned by him! Because he really did not know the whereabouts of the master, and most of the victims were unknown bags of new disciples, Hong Qi did not pay much attention to it at that time. Only sent someone to secretly investigate the traces of the murderer on the one hand, and ordered the disciples to be secretly on guard. Unexpectedly, since then, as the identity of the murdered disciples has gradually increased from one bag, two bags, to five bags of disciples, in the past 20 years, even seven or eight bags of disciples in the gang will be killed every five years! However, the difference from the level change of the murdered disciples is that not only has the method of killing each person not changed for more than 100 years, but without exception, the words 'hand over Zhao Weiming' can always be found next to the corpse!

Who is this person, and what is the deep hatred and hatred with my master? So, while these questions have become questions that have been lingering in Hong for more than 700 years, I have no choice but to arrange for the disciples to strengthen their vigilance, and at the same time, when I have free time, I go out to visit my master alone. After decades of fruitless searching, Hong Qi even took the risk to sneak into the palace to inquire about his master's whereabouts. It was not long after this incident that Hong Qi got a handwriting from Ye Xiao Zhao Weiming. This is a poem of seven uniques, which reads: I am a floating cloud body that is self-light, and I am leisurely and unwilling to make a name for myself. The king's momentum is 3,000 feet, and his smile is like the wind under his feet. After listening to others explain the meaning of the poem, Hong Qi couldn't help but start thinking. Since Master doesn't even care about this king who holds the power of life and death in the world, he naturally refuses to come back and be the leader of this gang again. Hong Qi secretly wondered.

Shortly thereafter, he officially became the leader of the beggar gang with the support of a group of disciples. However, due to his own opinion, in the past 20 years, Hong Qi has never stopped looking for his master, but if there are clues, he will follow them all the way. It was also during the last tracking that Hong Qi unexpectedly got the news that the deputy gang leader Chang Bainian was killed. "Helper, the suspect has been caught by us" Thinking about it, the words of the master ** Jingzhi have already sounded in his ears.

Oh, Hong Qi hurriedly looked up, and the law enforcement elder Yan Zhengzhi immediately shouted, "Don't hurry up and bring that spy up!" When the voice fell, several disciples had already escorted the young man who looked like a weak scholar into the hall. How could it be him? The suspect Hong Qi is not only familiar with him, but he can also be said to have a clear background about it! This person's name is Wang Zhi. His talent and quick thinking, at the age of nine, he had already won the examination to solve the yuan, just after the weak year of the crown, he was directly given the title of jinshi by the emperor in the palace examination; it can be said that he was a man of immeasurable talent! However, when he was assigned a real job, because he was born in Chongzhou, and this place had already been reduced to the territory of the Jinren; therefore, the prime minister Qin Hui arranged a hasty arrangement for him on the grounds that he seemed to be collaborating with the enemy.

In the face of Qin Hui's deliberate troubles, Wang Zhi learned that it was because he lacked filial piety to him, so he ruthlessly sold his family's property, folded it into silver taels, and gave it to Qin Hui with both hands. Soon thereafter, Wang Zhi was sent to Caizhou to take up his post as a pacification envoy.

Soon after, with the soldiers and horses of the Yue family going to Shangqiu to garrison, Wang Zhi, who was not far from him and admired Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and others, naturally had a lot of contact with him. Unexpectedly, after Yue Fei and his son were framed and imprisoned by Qin Hui, when purging the rest of the henchmen, Wang Zhizeng's relationship with Yue's father and son was also revealed. Emperor Zhao Gou was furious, and even stripped Wang Zhi of all his fame and degraded him to a commoner!

After a few more years, Wang Zhi, who had no savings, was reduced to the point of becoming a beggar on the street! And at that time, it was Hong Qi, who was pitiful for his talent and did not know a single big character, that he was transferred to the helmsman and assisted the deputy gang leader Chang Bainian to do some work of biting and hyphenating. After thinking about it, after hearing the sound of 'crackling', Hong Qi hurriedly turned his head to look over. But seeing that the disciples were beaten to death, Wang Zhi, who was already foaming blood, was motionless and did not have the slightest intention of begging for mercy. So he immediately dismissed the irrelevant people and others, and directly asked the reason.
