PS: This chapter is actually the background of the second volume.

In the third year of Xinghe, the new emperor became an adult, performed the crown ceremony, and presided over political affairs.

At that time, the Empress Dowager Shangyu took the initiative to delegate power and hide the harem, Emperor Zhao Ji was in power, and suddenly the order was new.

Two years ago, when Tong Guan was appointed as an enshrinement official, he recommended Cai Jing, who had been implicated in the matter of King Pu a few years ago, to enter Bianjing, and Li Yandai of the back court and Concubine Ru praised him for having the talent of the prime minister, and he was quickly attracted to Zhao Ji's attention, recruited into the court to ask the right question, and also felt that this person did have the talent of the prime minister, and appointed him as the right minister.

However, when it comes to Wang Huang, I have to say that Zhao Ji conquered Xue Yan that year, and entered Xiangzhou to have fun with Gao Xuannian, this person just joined the army for the manager of Xiangzhou, and because of his long blonde hair and golden eyes, big mouth, and good at clever words, he soon stammered Zhao Ji, who was a young man at that time, and was cited as a confidant, but now he is sitting in the position of Zhongcheng in the imperial history.

As a person, they have their own preferences, Zhao Ji is no exception, in addition to liking calligraphy and painting, especially interested in exotic flowers and stones and Keju, even to the extent of madness, so there are Zhu Mian and his people, through Cai Jing's recommendation, to his liking, for Zhao Ji to find a lot of different stones, and in Hangzhou to open a welcoming bureau, spend official money to make profits from it, and do everything possible to extort 'flower stones' from the Huai River, Bianhe River into Tokyo, name: "Flower Stone Gang"

Xinghe four years

There was a great drought in many places in the Central Plains, and there was no rain falling for several months, and the people were miserable, and they became homeless people begging and flowing, flocking to the surrounding cities, and even the surrounding areas of Bianjing radiated many people came to defect in order to survive. On the way, there are countless people who die of hunger, and cannibalism is commonplace.

In the southeast and other prefectures and counties, there are more than 100,000 supporters, and even more heroes have gone to take refuge.

In addition to the southeast La, there are more giants who gather in the mountains and forests to rob the rich. Among them, such as Tian Hu, Wang Qingzhi and Shandong Wang Lun and others, Xiaokou is countless, large and small mountains, and there are many people who occupy mountains as kings.

In this way, it is still the people who suffer.

However, for these things, several people in the court were silent, and still sang the praises of peace and prosperity, and the world was auspicious.

Anle Village, Yuncheng, Shandong Province, Huangnigang, ten miles away.

A short and thin man wearing a short coat, broken shoes, a round face, a triangular beard, and a sleek and sophisticated demeanor, he looks like an idle person in the village. The man turned the dirt road, entered a thatched mud house, and shouted, "Lady, bring me a bowl of water, this ghost can heat people out of a bird." ”

As soon as I entered the house, the house was in a mess, and a woman with a beautiful face and figure, compared to her dress, it was considered extravagant. The woman looked left and right in the bronze mirror, ignored the short and thin man, and said, "If you want to drink water, pour it yourself, and look at your tone, you must have given the money to the gambler again?"

The man holding the water bowl just put it to his mouth, and couldn't help but put it on the three-legged table, and said, "It's just that I am not lucky, but I lost all the money today." ”

Syllable!

The woman pinched the jewelry, slapped it on the dressing table, and scolded angrily, "Waste of waste!"

"What's wrong with the bag? I haven't married you wicked woman. The man crouched on the threshold with his arms crossed and muttered.

"Fart!"

The woman was like a frying pan, swooped up from the stool, poked the man's head with her hand, and shouted: "Marrying the old lady is the blessing of several lifetimes, and the old lady is not willing to leave, you take care of yourself by yourself, and you are idle all day long, is the gambler you go to?

was counted, but the man was still indifferent, muttering: "Stealing a man, what you said is reasonable." ”

"What's wrong with me stealing a man? If I don't steal a man, can I have money for you to gamble? If I don't steal a man, my mother has this shirt to wear?"

The woman's scolding became louder and louder, "If it weren't for the fact that your younger brother sold himself in the palace to get a sum of money to marry his wife, you would still be beating a bachelor like a cow in the field with your second brother of wood, and the year before last, you secretly sold your sister to Liu Yuanwai's family as a slave, where did the money go? Do you think you can?"

"Do you have the ability to earn enough money to come back?" The old lady will wash your feet!" After speaking, he kicked the man on the threshold out with one kick, and slammed the door shut.

The man squatted on the ground, spared his scalp, and muttered: "In these years, where is it good to make money, a few days ago, Brother Chao Gai didn't ask me to do a big deal, and I don't know what it is. ”

As he spoke, his heart was crossed, and the man went.
