Greed is something that is inevitable and cannot be eradicated in human nature.

The Zhang family was able to accumulate such a huge family property, of course, not as some people say, they have no interest in money and have no idea about their own family property. It was just accidental, coincidental, and just right, and then they had the family property in front of them...

…

However, the bigger the family fortune is and the more enjoyment there is, the harder it is to let it go.

Just like the beautiful Gu Liang is more and more easily seduced into using her beauty to make money, Zhang Wen, who grew up reading books about sages, is also seduced by money and power and becomes even more reluctant to part with it. What is a Duwu on the surface, but behind his back?

The more inside, the better.

The sage's book eventually became a fig leaf to cover up his greed.

In Jiangdong, spring naturally comes earlier.

The buds on the branches poked their heads, and the world behind the white wall looked so clean and graceful. Zhang Wen walked along the path in the courtyard with his hands behind his hands, looking like a talented man and a beautiful lady. However, looking at such a clean scenery, his heart was filled with tears.

It's not a very clean thought.

Four surnames in Wu County.

Which one has not climbed out of the wind and rain?

In the past, during the pre-Qin and early Han dynasties, the four surnames reclaimed the barren hills around Wu Commandery, improved the land, and managed little by little to achieve the current prosperity of Wu Commandery...

So, new guy, who do you think you are?

Zhang Wen sneered, and then quickly put away the sarcastic smile on his face, and changed into a gentleman's look. He walked out of the courtyard door and greeted someone outside, "Xiandi, how are you doing?"

The festive smiling face once again appeared, but not everyone could see clearly what was behind this smiling face.

……(*`ェ′*)……

Happiness may be conserved. Some people are happy, while others are not.

For example, Lu Yi.

Of course Soochow is also arranged according to the official rank of the Han Dynasty, but because the old Sun family is actually relatively poor, the salary can often only be 60%, at most 80%, so although Lu Yi was considered a

The salary for admonishing a doctor is as high as 800 dan, but what you actually get is not enough. Sometimes you only get 200 to 300 dan.

It's like hanging around in the magic city of later generations, taking the name of the president of East China District, but only getting three or four thousand. I really can't even pay the rent, let alone find some brothers and sisters to eat, drink, fish and meat.

Played.

Of course, what he did to admonish the officials was some dirty work. Well, he was responsible for inspecting officials and impeaching lawless people. However, Lu Yi was not satisfied with it, or strictly speaking, he was only half satisfied.

Expensive, satisfactory, clean, unsatisfactory.

I am like a dog, licking desperately, even the shit smells delicious. Is it just for the so-called "purity"?

Lu Yi did not dare to complain about his situation before, because he knew the real cause of the congestion on his own official road...

He doesn't have a common surname.

The children of the gentry clan, even those with ordinary talents, can live and work freely in the same place. If they want to do it, they can handle some official matters. In their free time, they can go on spring outings and have cultural and drinking parties in turn, which is very satisfying.

There was no one behind him to rely on, not even Sun Quan.

Sun Quan looked at him as if he were a dog.

The Sun family, haha, the Sun family is not a good thing either!

Lu Yi sneered a few times.

Sun Quan is still somewhat conservative and cowardly...

If you really let me do it, no matter what, just kill him! If you kill the four surnames of Wu County, I will be the new four surnames!

Apart from being cute in the eyes of hostages and fat sheep, does a robber who is willing to be reasonable have any other uses?

Unfortunately……

Why!

Zhou Yu Zhou Gongjin!

Why!

It seems that this good life can only come to an end, and I don’t know when the next time will be...

……o(￣▽￣)……

Lu Yi is not the only one who feels that good times are short-lived.

Just like the emperor who should be the happiest among all the Han people and who should have the least worries, in fact he is not happy every day.

In fact, the position of emperor is quite busy.

Sometimes we have to take care of big and small things. Even if the wives of ministers are jealous, they will make trouble in the Jinluan Palace. My own princess will find an automatic pile driver and be dragged down to the Dan level...

But even if I say I'm not busy, I'm really not busy.

People like Liu Xie even had to find something to do.

Such as spring plowing sacrifices and blessings.

Is it just...

The officials kneeling in front of the altar and the people nearby who were worshiping still looked very pious, serious, nervous and orderly, more or less similar, but the people in the distance who were watching the melons did not.

It seems like you can still cheer when you are so serious!

This made Liu Xie feel that he was a singer and dancer performing in the courtyard, and then maybe he did some fancy things in the middle, which immediately attracted cheers and applause from the surrounding spectators...

After shaking for a long time and chattering for a long time, the people kneeling in front of the altar were still devout, but the people watching were a little impatient and began to squeeze and chatter. The official who was originally responsible for offering sacrifices and praying looked calm and felt in his heart.

But he laughed a little.

There is no mention of the Spring Plowing Festival, Liu Xie will definitely do it, but is it similar to the subsequent small activities of praying for rain and blessings...

This job is not easy to do in the first place, and most of the time it is done by ordinary officials. Anyway, even if the rain cannot be prayed for, or there is no efficacious effect, it does not matter. After all, it is a small official, and everyone will have a good time, and it will be over.

.

As a result, Liu Xie not only wanted to offer sacrifices, but also participated in praying for blessings and rain...

If you don't respond quickly, you can quickly capture the people who come to top up the amount, give each person a hundred dollars, and gather around the altar to worship and pose, isn't there not even a decent one?

I don’t know if I can report this money to an account, and what name would be better?

Traveling expenses?

Well, let me think about it carefully. The etiquette officer's expression became more and more serious.

Although the sky was overcast, it didn't mean that it would rain if it rained. Seeing that the process of praying for rain was over, the sky was still heavy and he looked unhappy, so he naturally ignored Liu Xie's heart.

silent prayer.

"Your Majesty...this..." The official in charge of this matter took small steps forward and arrived in front of Liu Xie. He lowered his head deeply without showing any expression, "The ceremony of praying for rain has been completed...please please

Your Majesty, please return to the palace earlier..."

Seeing that the sorcerers on the altar had already begun to clean up their affairs, Liu Xie sighed softly. Just now, he sincerely and wholeheartedly prayed to God, to his ancestors, to all the heroes of the Han family.

Pray, but God...

Liu Xie stood up slowly and was about to give the order to return to the palace, but suddenly he felt something, and then raised his head in surprise and looked up to the sky.

The skylight seemed to be getting darker again.

There is a slight chill on the face...

"..." The official's mouth opened wide, and his original serious expression had long been forgotten. "It's... it's... raining! It's raining! Your Majesty, it's raining! Your Majesty! It's raining!"

The patter of spring rain fell again.

Liu Xie raised his head and closed his eyes, feeling the feeling of rain falling on his face and body. The eunuch next to him quickly wanted to hold an umbrella for Liu Xie, but Liu Xie pushed him away with a slap, "This is God's protection. How can it not be shielded?"

The truth!』

The people around who were laughing and preparing to disperse also stopped. Then they looked at Liu Xie, who was raising his head to the sky in the drizzle. They were all stunned, and then a little shocked.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty asked for rain!"

The thin and sharp voice of the Huangmen eunuch seemed to pierce everything around him, and then he fell down at Liu Xie's feet with a pop.

The ceremony officer was stunned for a moment, and then he also knelt down.

Then there were more people around the altar, from near to far, like ripples on the water, and they knelt down one by one. In the end, only Liu Xie was left standing, looking up at the sky.

.

"I!" Liu Xie opened his hands, seeming to announce to the sky, or to everyone present, or to those not present, "I am the Emperor of Han Dynasty!"

"The great man...the emperor..."

……︿(￣︶￣)︿……

It's drizzling.

Emperor Liu Xie was praying outside the city, and the news that it was really raining spread quickly.

An emperor who can communicate with heaven and receive a response from heaven is undoubtedly what ordinary people admire and desire most.
