Smelting and Exploding the Heavens

Chapter 214
If you don't want to do hard labor or work as a coolie, you have to pay again.Since Zhao Ji came to power, there are still various outlines, such as the outline of tea, the outline of flowers and stones, and the outline of birthdays.

So much so that the southerners have no food for themselves, even in the affluent south, so there is no need to say more in the north.

Especially after this war, from Hebei to Henan, there are refugees everywhere, and the local tyrants took the opportunity to annex them wantonly.

The rich clan merged with the wealthy clan, the wealthy clan merged with the poor family, and the poor clan robbed the orphans and widows, the order was in a mess.

The method used by the imperial court remained the same, recruiting the young and strong into the Xiang army, and letting the old and weak die violently in the wilderness.

In the end of the Song Dynasty, there was nothing wrong with internal cruelty and external cruelty, so peasant uprisings in other dynasties were the fuse of the dynasty's demise, but in the Song Dynasty alone, internal suppression methods proliferated.

The royal family and the scholar-bureaucrats are working together and have a lot of resources, so naturally they will not give the common people a chance to succeed in the uprising.

But this kind of system also directly created external weakness. The folks in the Song Dynasty never lacked powerful military power. The Han people were even more fierce and brave than the Hulu, but they couldn't stand up to the continuous castration and suppression of their own people, so they were destroyed first by the Jin and then by the Yuan Dynasty. .

Fan Zhuoyuan thought all the way and entered the capital.

Before he was notified, he was not qualified to go to the palace to pay respects to Emperor Zhao Ji, and he only stayed in the inn temporarily with Li Gang, Wang Ting, Zhong Shidao and others.

At this time, Fan Zhuoyuan didn't know that the danger was approaching, and he was still appreciating the vibrant urban life in the prosperous Bianjing.

Practice martial arts during the day, drink and eat meat, and travel around.

After nightfall, since there was no curfew in Bianjing, it was the time when the major Goulanfang markets opened up, so he took Wu Yu and the two of them to visit the brothels, feeling very comfortable.

A few days later, as a martial idiot, Wu Yu said that he didn't want to be disturbed by the bustling life in Bianjing, so he decided not to go out anymore, and secretly practiced sword skills.

Fan Zhuoyuan shook his head, which shows that Wu Yu's ambition is not strong enough, and he is easily affected by this prosperity.

Like Fan Zhuoyuan, when it's time to enjoy it, enjoy it to the fullest, and when it's time to practice martial arts, you can concentrate on practicing martial arts without being affected at all.

However, after waiting for several days, he was still not summoned, but Li Gang never came out after being summoned.

Two days later, Zhong Shidao, Zhong Shidao, Wang Ti and others were also summoned, and each made their own arrangements to leave the capital in a hurry, but Fan Zhuoyuan was left alone.

And Fan Zhuoyuan wanted to look for Tong Guan, but found that Tong Guan was locked in the palace and hadn't come out for a while, feeling strange in his heart.

Until one morning, Fan Zhuoyuan and Wu Yu sat on the second floor of the inn to enjoy breakfast.

Suddenly, layers of officers and soldiers surrounded the inn, archers and crossbowmen were arranged on the commanding heights of nearby houses, and there was even a god arm crossbow pointing here in the distance.

The originally bustling and bustling market seemed to be cleaned up all of a sudden, and the people hurriedly hid in the shops nearby, looking nervously and curiously at this restaurant. There was a lot of discussion.

The name of the restaurant is Shiqianjiaodian, also known as Tianzhimeilu. It is the most famous and the best business hotel nearby, so the flow of people is also very strong.

Wu Yu drew out his knife, walked to the window, and several powerful arrows shot towards him.

Wu Yu's eyes flashed, he swung his saber and hurriedly retreated, blocked all the arrows, and shouted sharply: "General Fan is here! Who dares to assassinate!"

The shopkeeper, the waiter and others who were hiding on the first floor, as well as the common people hiding outside the hotel, were greatly surprised.

Some people couldn't help but say, "Grandpa Fan is here? Why did the court want to arrest him?"

Fan Zhuoyuan put down his wine glass, and said slowly: "Don't ask, it must be the imperial court's order."

Wu Yu was startled, and hurriedly asked: "General! You have made great achievements, why should the court treat you like this!"

"Good question!"

Applause came from downstairs, and the people who came were Wanyan Baye, the special envoy of the Kingdom of Jin, Zhao Liangsi, the envoy of the Great Song Dynasty, and others.

In addition, Wanyan Baye was accompanied by a white-clothed swordsman. It was Gao Shenxing, the sword god who had long had a grudge against Fan Zhuoyuan.

At the same time, the sound of footsteps could be heard from the roof and everywhere. It was obvious that a net had been set up around him to deal with him.

Fan Zhuoyuan looked indifferent, sitting where he was still drinking and eating meat.

Wu Yu also turned around and walked back to his seat. He wanted to toast and drink, but was stopped by Fan Zhuoyuan. Wu Yu didn't know the reason, and looked at Fan Zhuoyuan suspiciously.

Fan Zhuoyuan said: "The food and wine are all poisonous."

Wu Yu said in shock: "But you, General, have eaten a lot!"

Wanyan Baye was sitting on a table twenty steps away, he didn't dare to get too close to the tiger, although besides Gao Shenxing, there were many other experts beside him.

He smiled and said, "I'm also very curious. Why do you still eat and drink when you know it's poisonous?"

Fan Zhuoyuan said indifferently: "Only when you are full can you have the strength to kill people. Today I am very angry, and only enough blood can calm my anger. As for this little bit of toxicity..."

Fan Zhuoyuan stretched out his fingers, and forced all the toxins in the blood to the fingertips, and seeped out from the pores of the skin. Only drops of black blood were lying on the table, and everyone was shocked.

"How can you hurt me half a point?"

He has unimaginable control over Qi, blood and body, so he can easily force poison.

Wanyan Baye's expression changed, and Zhao Liangsi stood up beside him and said, "Fan Zhuoyuan, you can be convicted!"

Fan Zhuoyuan said: "Fan fought against the barbarians, defended our country, saved our people, what is his crime?"

Zhao Liangsi slapped the table and scolded: "Are you innocent?! Isn't it a crime for you to kill the envoy of the Kingdom of Jin in the street of Yancheng and provoke a war between the two countries?
You protect the country, but let the Jin army drive straight to Bianjing, slaughter the countryside, and plunder the property, isn't it a crime! "

Fan Zhuoyuan looked at each other with both eyes, and said with emotion: "First, in the city of Yanjing, the Jin soldiers insulted and killed the people of our Great Song Dynasty, if we don't deal with them according to the Song law, do we allow the Jin people to come here arrogantly and go away wantonly?

Second, if the imperial court did not appoint Liu Yanqing, a traitorous villain like Liu Yanqing, how could the Jin army break through Yuguan and wreak havoc on the countryside?This is the court's fault, not Fan's fault!The people of my Yan land have also suffered a lot from it! "

Zhao Liangsi's complexion changed, and he said angrily: "Fan Zhuoyuan, today the three thousand forbidden troops in Beijing have completely surrounded this place, you cannot escape with your wings, if you are willing to arrest with nothing, the imperial court will give you a fair trial!

I don't want to bear the infamy, so while you are under the supervision of the Imperial City Secretary, you will be restrained, and the people of the world will give you a fair judgment. "

Wu Yu said anxiously: "General! Don't believe his nonsense!"

Fan Zhuoyuan also laughed, "If the court wanted to judge me fairly, the Zhao officials should have let me go to the court to defend myself, so how could they control Li Xuanfu first, and then summon Wang Zhi and Zhong Shi to leave.

In the end, they sneakily mobilized the army to surround them secretly, poisoning Fan's food and drinks, and even sent envoys from the Kingdom of Jin to come here to watch a certain family be arrested in public.

I'm afraid you didn't think about keeping Fan alive from the very beginning. If Fan took good care of his feathers and captured him without a fight, I'm afraid that's exactly what you wanted.

Let Fan guess, since the envoy of the Kingdom of Jin is here, is one of the conditions for the truce between the two countries to hand over Fan's head? "
