Chapter 1

In the first year of Jiankang of the Great Wei Dynasty, the new emperor Ning Nanquan ascended the throne. The emperor was young and the times were unstable. There was no one in the court to support each other. Only the Huai King of Poyang was still used by himself. The emperor was to consolidate power and appointed Huai King Ning Zheng as the regent, and ordered him to quickly leave the place where the feudal was separated and enter the capital to assist the government.

In the sixth year of Jiankang, the emperor became more and more prosperous, and he was gradually afraid of the regent's power, so he wanted to secretly eradicate Ning Zheng. However, Ning Zheng was powerful and the power of all parties was mixed and indestructible. When he wanted to shake it, there was no way to break it. At that time, although the regent of the Great Wei Dynasty, Ning Zheng, King of Huai, interfered in politics, Emperor Wei, was not a puppet, and although his power was not as powerful as Ning Zheng, he could still compete with it.

However, when the emperor was young, he fell ill and often stayed in sickness since then. When he fought hard to compete with the Regent, his health became worse. The seven great gentry clans of the Great Wei also took advantage of this opportunity to gradually become richer, and the trend of division became more and more obvious. The various tribes were harboring evil intentions and separating one side, and the political situation was in turmoil. The internal worries of the Great Wei were endless. The Chinese and Korean countries in the distant western territory raised large numbers of troops to invade the borders of the Great Wei, and the war broke out again and again. The seemingly quiet Great Wei was actually in a turbulent undercurrent.

The land of Kuaiji in the south of the Yangtze River is connected to the sea in the east, to the south, and to the river in the north, and to the vast river in the north. It is the most mysterious place in the world, and the origin of the powerful gang Shui Pavilion that has stood for thousands of years.

In the Jianye area, Ye Kongge, who rose later, had a slight confrontation with it. The two greatly strangled the throats of the food and military supplies of the Wei Dynasty. The frontiers were wars, and although the Emperor and the King of Huai continued to fight, they turned their eyes to the Water Pavilion and Ye Kongge. In order to fill the military supplies, the Emperor and the King of Huai secretly sent people to Kuaiji, and Jianye lobbled the people of the Water Pavilion and Ye Kongge.

In the spring of the seventh year of Jiankang, Kuaiji Water Pavilion was in charge of the imperial court and established contact with the emperor to provide military supplies and food to defend the border of the Great Wei.

For a moment, under the support of the Water Pavilion, the Emperor had the upper hand in the battle with the King of Huai. The King of Huai was in a hurry and secretly sent a killer to intercept the people of the Water Pavilion and the Emperor. The Emperor was furious and completely broke up with the King of Huai.

The Huai King was in danger and was extremely anxious. Secondly, his son Ning Nanyou volunteered to his father and was willing to go to Jianye to lobby Yekongge for his own use. Three months later, Ning Nanyou brought back the Yekongge envoy to discuss the needs of food and military supplies with the Huai King, and thus surrendered to the Huai King's power.

This turbulent momentum is difficult to determine, and the unreasonable involvement between Shui Pavilion and Ye Kong Pavilion makes the situation of the Great Wei even more critical. A battle between orthodox and powerful ministers, the melee between the tribes of power and the division and unification of various races officially began after various conspiracies were exposed...

"Stop, don't run!" A fierce shout came from a small alley at the foot of the emperor of Luoyang City. A dozen big men ran forward in the Nanxiang alley connected to the north of the west street of Shangdongmen, Luoyang City. And the left side of the dozen big men who were not very tall, covered in coarse linen clothes, and were covered in mess. Although this beggar is young, his physical strength is better than the dozens of strong men behind him.

He was running and jumping happily, and turned to look at the dozen strong men who were biting him behind him, all of whom were sweating and panting. So he stood there, pointing at them and laughed, "A dozen strong men can't chase me, a lonely boy. If this is spread, will your adults lose all their face?"

The leading man rested on the spot and took a few breaths. Hearing the beggar boy's words, he almost was not angry to death.

"You little bastard who jumped out of the dirt nest. Today, if I don't catch you and beat you up, I'm really sorry to my lord!" The man rolled up his sleeves, wiped the sweat from his head hard, and couldn't wait to chase him again.

The little beggar smiled and found a dog-tail grass from somewhere. He spitted at the strong men, "I am not a name for Jiang Xiao on the street. You can't bully me. I catch me first and then talk big!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man turned around and jumped into another alley. His light skills were very good.

The big men were stunned and stunned for a moment. When they woke up, the cunning boy had already slipped to somewhere.

The leader stomped his feet in anger, waved behind him and shouted, "Chased me! Today, the one who takes the kid will be rewarded with great reward!"

"Here!" A group of big men behind him shouted in a vocal manner, and then a group of people rushed into the alley. Luoyang is the most popular area in the capital, with more than a dozen strong men running around in the small streets, which frightened the safe people walking in the streets, and avoided them, for fear of causing trouble.

More than a dozen people searched for a boy, but after searching for a long time in this Guo District, there was no trace yet. This made the strong man in the lead so angry that his teeth were itchy.

"Boss, I have found all the Manguo District, but I haven't seen that boy!" The person behind me panted and replied. The leading man spat on the ground and cursed, "Damn, this is really a ghost? There are only a few places in Northeast Guo District, where can he run?"

The leading man was so angry that he looked around and suddenly a stone hit his eyes suddenly. A dizzy pain came. The man screamed and then cursed, "Which one without eyes dares to throw something on my head?" He rubbed his left eye that was smashed, staring at his right eye and looked for people everywhere.

"Hey! Gecko with a fat head and pouting mouth, you are really blind! I sat there for half a night and watched you find someone. I was tired." Somewhere on the roof of the tile, sarcasm and teasing suddenly came from the sound of ridicule. The strong men were shocked and looked around in a hurry.

Jiang Xiao sat on the roof of a flat house, leisurely swinging his legs, looking at the useless man who had not found him after searching for half a day, and couldn't help but pull the corners of his lips, his eyebrows drooped, and he felt bored secretly, so he turned around and leaped away in the vast sea of ​​people.

When the strong men realized, the people had disappeared long ago.

The leading man stomped his feet violently, and was filled with anger. He turned a cold face and spat at his subordinates behind him, "Looking for someone to bring the beggars and homeless people from Luoyang City to Zhongdu Mansion!"

Dozens of men clasped their fists and shouted, "Hey!" Then they scattered on the streets and plunged into the crowds. In a short while, they disappeared.

In Kyoto, it is rare to see such a fierce chasing person but failing to lose. Within half a day, the legend of Jiang Xiao was spread throughout the streets and alleys, becoming a topic of conversation after dinner.

This man named Jiang Xiaozhi, who had been in Beijing for some reason, had been in Beijing for some reason. He was wearing patched and ragged beggar clothes and was doing well on the streets. Not only did he recruit all the street beggars in the capital for his own use, but he also did a robbery of wealth and helping the poor with these refugee beggars at the feet of the emperor and the Huai King in the capital. In just one month, Jiang Xiao led dozens of people to rob the mansions of officials in the capital who had become rich and had a bad relationship with the people. He sold all the money he had robbed and scattered them into the hands of ordinary people, and gained the support of many people in the capital for a while.

Jiang Xiao became the will of the people, and this forced the court to arrest the Zhongdu official Cao Shangshu Zhao Qi, who was ordered to capture Jiang Xiao's middle capital official, one head or two. Jiang Xiao was not only the will of the people, but also the changeable. Dozens of people saw each other's different appearances. Therefore, Zhao Qi didn't know what Jiang Xiao looked like.

This matter was delayed for several months. Emperor Wei and King Huai put pressure on Zhao Qi one after another. In desperation, Zhao Qi and the master in the mansion agreed to set up a dozen strong yamen runners on the street to pretend to force the robbery of the common woman. A play was performed to attract Jiang Xiao to appear. Jiang Xiao was a chivalrous person, and when he encountered such a scene, he would definitely take action to save the robbery of the common woman. At that time, more than a dozen strong men would be surrounded by him and would not be afraid of not being able to catch a Jiang Xiao.

Unfortunately, Zhao Qi could be considered Jiang Xiaohui's appearance, but he did not think that this man had a very high martial arts skills. More than a dozen strong men were unable to defeat him. The young man was very cunning and even played more than a dozen strong men under the Zhongdu Mansion in his hands. He teased him all morning, but then suddenly disappeared, which made the men so angry that their heads and feet were numb and they were crazy.

Zhao Qi was greatly disappointed when he heard this news and was furious at Yu’s mansion. This arrest not only failed, but once again greatly increased the favorable feelings among the people of Luoyang, making the Zhongdu Mansion completely lose its face and became a joke after dinner in Luoyang. How could Zhao Qi not be angry?

At this moment, Jiang Xiao, a young man who made the Zhongdu Mansion chaotic, hid in an unmanned flat house among many households in the northeast Guo District. He moved neatly and cleanly into a set of coarse linen clothes, took a little hair bun, then reached out and touched his face, and tore off a face. The boy turned around and met the sunshine shining into the house, gradually showing his true face. He looked at the willow leaves shaking at the window, reflecting the sunshine, his slender willow eyebrows slightly frowned, his eyes flowing charm, and a deep sadness, his elegant nose, pink cheeks slightly morning, red lips were pursed, and he had the appearance of a sinking fish and falling geese, and the appearance of a closed moon and awe of flowers.

Jiang Xiaoyu stayed here for a long time, curled his lips slightly, raised his slender white fingers, pushed open the door of the flat house, slowly came out, and looked carefully. Although he was covered in coarse cloth, he had a slim figure and his temperament was self-evident. When he looked closely, his chest trembled slightly, and it was obvious that Jiang Xiaona was a beautiful girl.

Jiang Xiao left the flat house and quietly headed towards the back alley. After exploring and wandering around the neighborhoods of all sizes, Jiang Xiao walked around to an extremely ordinary flat house, opened the door and walked in.

The mottled wooden door creaked, and the person inside seemed to be shocked. Seeing Jiang Xiao appearing, he hurriedly called into the room, "Brother Xue! The girl is here!"

Seeing the child who was dozing in front of the hall suddenly awakened, looking hurried, Jiang Xiao changed into a gentle smile and said to the child who was guarding the door, "The afternoon is so hot, it's really sleepy. If you are too sleepy at night, then go down and have some rest."

The child was flattered and quickly kowtowed to Jiang Xiao, and said gratefully: "Thank you for your compassion, girl!"
