Great Zhou Dynasty, Yuzhou, Wanjun, Dingyuan County!
At this moment, spring is coming, flowers are blooming, everything is reviving, wicker branches are sprouting, revealing a hint of tenderness and a touch of green. The swallows on the trees are making crisp calls, and farmers are cultivating in the fields, spreading manure and sowing seeds. seed.
Surrounded by many farmlands, the Wubao stood there like a giant. The length and width of the Wubao were three hundred steps each. The bottom layer was for storing grain, and in the middle were various archery holes. There were watchtowers at the four corners of the Wubao, and above it There were servants patrolling and on guard. The farmers cultivating the land looked at Wubao with a hint of awe in their eyes.
Above the gate of Wubao, there are four ancient seal characters engraved, Liujia Wubao.
In the Wubao, various slaves, servants, etc. are constantly working, just like worker ants at work.
In the northwest corner of Wubao, a tall building stands, showing luxury and nobility. In the tall building, a handsome young man is sitting at the desk, reading the "Bible".
The Emperor of Heaven wrote the Five Classics, namely the Heavenly Scriptures, the Earthly Scriptures, the Human Scriptures, the Nervous Scriptures, and the Ghost Scriptures. These Five Classics explain the heaven, earth, humans, gods and ghosts, the mysteries of the Great Way, and the mysteries of all things. Therefore, the Five Classics are the subjects of the imperial examination. Even warriors must read the Five Classics to practice martial arts, and Taoists must read the Five Classics to practice Taoism.
Next to it, stood a good-looking woman. Although she was a maid, she had outstanding appearance, beautiful cheeks, snow-white jade skin, crescent-shaped eyebrows, cherry red lips, eyes as clear as autumn water, and she was dressed in white. Showing unevenness, I am standing aside to serve you.
"Go down and rest, I don't need you to serve me anymore!"
The boy said
"No!" the maid responded, bowed respectfully and then stepped away.
The young man put down the book and looked a little dazed!
I was a human on earth in my previous life. Due to some accidents, I traveled to this world. What was my name in my previous life and what life experiences I had in my previous life? The past has passed, so I won’t mention it. Not long ago, I accepted the memory of this body. The owner of this body is named Liu. show.
The Liu family in Dingyuan County has three sons, the eldest Liu Yan, the second Liu Zhong, and the third Liu Xiu!
The eldest brother, Liu Yan, joined the army when he was young, and fought with the general for more than ten years. He made many military exploits and was highly regarded. He is now a seventh-grade Shengjie captain; the second brother, Liu Zhong, has Taoism and outstanding aptitude, and has entered the Taoist sect. Send, hope for eternal life.
As for the third child Liu Xiu, his qualifications are average and he only has the reputation of being a scholar. However, compared to his two elder brothers, he is far behind.
Therefore, there is a saying that the Liu family has three sons, one dragon, one tiger and one dog.
Liu Xiu, this is the dog, he is also a watchdog!
Opening the window, Liu Xiu leaned on the railing and looked out. What he saw was a series of houses, as well as tall and thick city walls on the outside, forming a strong fortress. In the surrounding fields, farmers and cattle were plowing continuously.
Standing on a tall building and looking down from a high place, you feel like a god.
The imperial power did not go to the countryside, but only to the county town. As for villages, towns and other areas, the imperial power had no control. Therefore, the mayors of towns, townships, villages, etc. were all held concurrently by local gentry, and they had local judicial power ( Ancestral hall judicial power), educational power (ethnic school), local armed forces (militia), local taxation.
The eldest brother was absent, and the second brother was absent, so Liu Xiu became the patriarch of the Liu family in Dingyuan County, and he was regarded as a local snake. When county officials collect taxes, they will not go directly to the local area and collect taxes from the common people, but directly collect taxes from the gentry. It also levies taxes from nearby people.
As for the tax amount, let’s discuss it with each other!
The two brothers were so good, but Liu Xiu, who was originally of average qualifications, turned out to be extremely poor and was called a watchdog.
Liu Xiu complained: "Others compete for father and son, but I compete for brother!"
Liu Xiu was very satisfied with this life. He didn't have to fight hard or be happy as a rich woman. He could have three wives and four concubines and enjoy the wealth. The only bad thing was that his name was not good. It was originally the name of a beautiful woman, but it suddenly became his.
name.
"Third Young Master, Miss Yang is here to visit!"
Butler Liu walked in and reported.
…………
In the hall, Liu Xiu is sitting on a chair; and on the right are an old man and a young girl. The old man is in his forties, with a calm face, not angry and intimidating; while the young girl is wearing green clothes, with a cool breath, like ice.
generally.
The old man is Liu Liu from the Yang family, named Uncle Liu; the girl in green seems to be his fiancée, named Yang Yuying.
"My good nephew, Xiaoying has entered the Yuqing Clan to practice Taoism. She has no time to live in this world, so she has no choice but to break off the engagement... After all, I feel sorry for my good nephew!" Uncle Liu said with a guilty expression. In the world, after all, men are superior to women, and I only hear of men asking women.
Break off the engagement, but don’t hear of a woman breaking off an engagement to a man.
Liu Xiu frowned slightly, the first step was to break off the engagement... Damn this is Xiao Yan's template, where is my golden finger, where is my Yao Lao? I looked at both hands and found... he didn't wear a ring. His parents didn't leave him a ring.
Neither brother left him a certain treasure.
"This is the betrothal gift..." Uncle Six said, and the servant came forward and brought the betrothal gift, which was double the previous price.
"Later!" Liu Xiu said lightly and disappeared.
When he reappeared, Liu Xiu held the marriage certificate in his hand, "This is the marriage certificate! It's a pity that we are destined to be together but not destined to be together!"
After receiving the marriage certificate, Uncle Six was a little stunned. He didn't expect it to go so smoothly without any twists and turns.
The next moment, Liu Xiu stood up and left!
"Interesting, the zodiac signs of boys and girls, the lunar destiny, the mother, the wife, the sister, the sister, the daughter!" Yang Yuying, who was originally silent, like an ice cube, said with a strange expression, but after a moment, she regained her composure. Liu
What does Xiu's fate have to do with her?
The cause and effect of each other has been cut off, the mortal world has been cut off, and there is no more entanglement!
…………
"Interesting, the first step is to break off the engagement!"
Returning to the study, Liu Xiu couldn't help but smile.
On earth, there are a lot of people who get divorced after just three months of marriage. There are a lot of people who get married for the second, third, fourth, etc.
Years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don't bully young people into poverty. Wait for me, Xiao Huohuo... no, wait for me, Liu Xiu, three years later, kill the Yang family, kill the Yuqing family, and by the way become Miss Yang's teacher.
He is not Xiao Huohuo, who is bitter and hateful. He is the head of the Liu family, the rich second generation, and the top tyrant in the township. There is no fool who comes up to show off and mock him. There is no servant who comes up to him.
Draw, taunt constantly, and gain a sense of presence.
After entering the room, closing the door, and making sure that no one was around, Liu Xiu began to do something that was related to the future and a matter of life and death.
"system!"
...There was silence.
"Yao Lao comes out!"
...and there was silence.
"Master Diao, come out!"
...still quiet.
"Come out Supreme Bone!"
...still quiet.
"Li Qiye, Chen Beixuan come out!"
...still quiet.
In the empty room, there was no sound at all. Then I rummaged around and found a ring. This was left by my father. It was regarded as a sacred object from my ancestors. I then refined it with blood. In the end, the grandfather did not appear, and the ring was still a ring.
There is no medicine in it.
I found another jade pendant, which was also left by my ancestors. I identified its owner with blood, but Master Diao was not in it.
After searching for a long time, Liu Xiu came to the conclusion that he did not have a grandfather or a golden finger.
Liu Xiu searched and confirmed again and again, and couldn't help covering his face and wailing: "Oh my god... without a golden finger, how can I pretend to be so cool? The Space and Time Administration, I want to complain, I want to go home; the Traveler Association, I want to
Complain, I want a golden finger!"
After a long time, there was still silence in the study. Liu Xiu could only shake his head and sigh: "I don't even have a golden finger. Am I really destined to be a trap?"
