In the twenty-fifth year of Tianzheng's reign, the last emperor of the Jin Dynasty passed away, followed by civil strife among the six princes and the invasion of Wuman barbarians from northern Xinjiang.
The old people say that it was a bleak world. The Wuman barbarians from Northern Xinjiang invaded and swept through the thirteen important towns in Northern Xinjiang. The people were displaced. In the great Central Plains, the six kings were in civil strife. The war was from north to south, from east to west, and the rivers and mountains were endless for three thousand miles.
One was spared. The refugees cooked with their corpses and exchanged their children for food. It was terrible to see.
After twelve years of wars and disputes, the mainland of China was divided into five major countries and dozens of independent warlord vassal towns. These independent vassal towns either originated from warlord separatism or were composed of rivers and lakes refugee forces, intertwined with each other, criss-crossed and surrounded by mountains.
Ten years later, the rivers and lakes refugee forces evolved into rivers and lakes sects through mergers and developments. Among them, Shaolin, Baiyun Villa, Golden Summit Palace, Iron Line Gate, Jade Girl Palace, and the Beggar Gang stood out from the merger and became the six most powerful gangs in the rivers and lakes.
Martial sects. Under the six sects, there are four major family forces: Qingcheng, Diancang, Giant Whale, and Donghai.
Ten years later, Shaolin and the Beggar Clan called upon the six major sects of the Jianghu. The four major sects held a Jianghu conference every ten years to formulate the rules of the Jianghu and elect the leader of the Jianghu for the next ten years based on martial arts and virtue. The Jianghu leader issued an order.
, the ten gates are moving, if there is any violation, all the heroes will be destroyed.
Since then, the Jianghu sect has become a force that cannot be underestimated. In this world, there are not only dynasties, but also Jianghu!
One, destroy the whole family (1)
The ancient Taoist people had four joys: the rain comes after a long drought, meeting an old friend in a foreign land, the night of flowers and candles in the wedding room, and the inscription of the gold medal. Although it is said to be the four joys, human joy is not limited to these four joys. It is joy to grow old and have a son, and two people are happy.
It is joy, it is joy to meet a talented person, it is joy to be safe and go well, it is joy to add joy to joy.
There are many kinds of happiness, but one thing is the same. Happy events always make people feel refreshed.
In Jingkou Prefecture, Yan Guyuan has been feeling refreshed recently because he has more than one happy event, and each one is a big happy event.
Yan Guyuan was a descendant of Yan Jingxuan, King of Han Dynasty in the Jin Dynasty. Although he was born into a royal family, he was just a small magistrate of Jingkou County in his generation, barely holding an official position to support his family. He was forty-six years old this year and had great ambitions.
He passed away, and his only regret was that he and his wife did not have a son, but there was no worry about having no son. It was also a pleasure to be a peaceful neighbor, but he never imagined that a series of happy events would happen to him unexpectedly.
First, the imperial court recommended Xiaolian, and Yan Guyuan was promoted to the Northern Territory Guangluxun Lieutenant General, in charge of the troops in the north of Jingkou. Then, at the age of forty-six, he unexpectedly had a son in middle age, and his wife gave birth to a pair of dragons and phoenixes.
Afterwards, the Bohai Kingdom in the north invaded the country, and Yan Guyuan defeated the Bohai Kingdom with one hundred thousand cavalry. He also unexpectedly obtained the Bohai Kingdom's secret treasure "Hundred Refinements of Mysterious Light". Suddenly, his status
, children, prestige, all easily fell into the hands of Yan Guyuan at the age of forty-six, half of his old age.
In this way, the Yan family suddenly became a famous family in Jingkou, and the Yan Mansion also changed from a small courtyard with a single entrance into a large courtyard with five entrances. As the courtyard became larger and larger, so did the affairs of the Yan family.
, more and more people are seeking help from Yan Guyuan, so much so that even if a pair of noble sons of the Yan family, Yan Zhuo and Yan Shuang, sneezes, they can alert the best doctor in Jingkou.
But being too famous is not a good thing. People are afraid of being famous and others are afraid of being strong. There are also many people who are thinking about Yan Guyuan in the dark.
Humans can never get used to seeing others living better than themselves, especially those who used to be similar to themselves but were given the opportunity to reach the sky in one step. What's more, the Yan family also has a treasure - Bailian Xuanguang.
On the third day of June, the sky was clear and the wind was gentle. It was indeed a rare and good day.
Of course, a good day must be accompanied by happy events. Today is the first birthday of a pair of noble sons of the Yan family, and the Yan family is abuzz with excitement. The celebration banquet stretches straight from Ximen Street in Jingkou Prefecture along the bluestone road, leading directly to the east and west gates.
Thousands of tables were served, and the Yan family invited chefs from all the restaurants in Jingkou. From the dignitaries to the common people, almost the entire Jingkou family gathered at the Yan family's first-year banquet.
In the Yan Mansion, the housekeepers and waiters were already busy. Gifts from relatives and friends had already piled up into a small mountain. The servants kept moving the gifts into the penthouse, almost filling the penthouse.
Mrs. Yan looked at the mountains of gifts and couldn't help but sigh: "Wealthy people have distant relatives in the mountains. I have never seen so many people during the Chinese New Year before."
Just as Mrs. Yan was sighing, Mrs. Xing from the royal censor behind her took her hand, rubbed it affectionately and said, "Sister, these hands are really slippery. The show behind her will start soon. Let's go together, sisters."
Let's go to the theater.'
As Mrs. Xing said this, she placed her eyes on Mrs. Yan's neck: "Sister, this necklace is too old-fashioned. I have a string of Tridacna beads made by skilled craftsmen from the Great Dan Kingdom." Mrs. Xing said, putting it on
The necklace was taken out, but Mrs. Yan couldn't stop it. A string of necklaces fell on Mrs. Yan's neck like a magic trick.
Looking at Mrs. Yan who was at a loss, Mrs.
On my sister."
In the main hall, a group of people were sitting in front of Yan Guyuan. Although they all praised Yan Zhuo and Yan Shuang, the golden boy and girl, who would be named dragon and phoenix in the future, their eyes were fixed on Yan Guyuan, hoping for Yan Guyuan.
Yuan, I hope he can make it easier for me in the future.
"Master, a group of martial arts masters came outside the door, saying they were coming to present treasures." A waiter hurried to the main hall.
When Yan Guyuan heard this, he immediately beamed. It wasn't that he really cared about the treasure, but he was worried that he couldn't escape. He hurriedly said: "Instruct the accountant to bring three hundred taels of silver to those masters." As he said this,
While bowing, he invited everyone around him to come and see the treasure.
At the gate, seven strangers were dressed in strange clothes, wearing mystical hats, tiger leather boots, and a large string of tantric Buddhist beads hanging around their necks. Their appearance could be said to be nondescript. But that's it. The leader was holding a handle of Ruyi in his hand.
The flag looks a bit precious. The wishful flag is three feet high and one foot wide. It shines golden from top to bottom. On the flag, a majestic lion with fangs and claws is embroidered on the flag. The lion flutters in the wind.
The lion's head is even more majestic and agile. There is a pair of spring swallows embroidered with black velvet spreading its wings on the top of the lion's head. The top of the Ruyi banner is embroidered with four gold characters "good fortune and longevity". It is round and delicate, with brilliant golden light, attracting applause from the surrounding guests.
.
Yan Guyuan looked at the wish-fulfilling flag and felt happy in his heart. He hurriedly invited the seven strangers to come into the house and take a seat.
Behind these seven people, an old beggar followed and tried to sneak into the Yan Mansion, but was grabbed by the young man.
"I am with these seven!" said the beggar.
The boy was stunned and turned around to ask, but he never thought that this old beggar was as slippery as a loach and sneaked into Yan Mansion in a blink of an eye.
On Ximen Street, Zhang Youqian, a newcomer to Diancang who went down the mountain to find the way, was sitting at the banquet and happily eating chicken drumsticks. It had been half a year since he set out from Diangcang to go down the mountain to find the way. The money given by his master had already been spent, and he was hungry and full along the way. After arriving at Jingkou, there happened to be a banquet held by the Yan Mansion, so he could eat and drink for free, which made him feel so happy. As he ate, he thought to himself that he would have to pay a visit to the owner of the family later and express his gratitude. , maybe even offering money as a gift. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but grab another chicken wing from the next table and stuff it in his mouth.
What a happy event, what a great happy event!
In the Yan Mansion, the seven strangers from the world have also been introduced to Yan Guyuan. As soon as the leading stranger saw Yan Guyuan, he began to boast that Mr. Yan was so handsome that he must have a pair of dragons and phoenixes under his roof. Your wife is prosperous. Husband, Mr. Yan, you have made your family prosperous. This pair of dragons and phoenixes have prospered your family, your fields, your parents, your brothers, and your wealth.
While boasting, he brought the Ruyi Banner to Yan Guyuan and said: "This Ruyi Banner with both blessings and longevity has now found its rightful owner. We, the Seven Saints of the Western Regions, will recite the Sutra of Increased Blessings and Longevity for Yan Mansion and recite it to you." It can accumulate great merit."
When Yan Guyuan and the guests in the Yan Mansion saw the Seven Sages of the Western Regions chatting lively, they were both happy and curious. They all wanted to see what magical powers these Seven Sages had!
I saw the younger two take out two flying cymbals from their pockets. Each flying cymbal weighed more than ten kilograms. In their hands, they were like throwing cotton. They were thrown into the air lightly, flying and spinning. Then, Then he dropped it, caught it, and threw it into the air again. As they played, they murmured something: "The incense comes from the stove - the Dharma Realm is smoked - all the Buddhas show their golden bodies..." Behind these two people, there were three more people, One of them plays strings, another plays the pipe and flute, and the third sings a minor tune. The music is melodious and the voice is clear, which attracts a burst of applause from the guests present.
The person holding the wishful thinking banner stood in the middle. Beside him, another person took out the powder from his pocket. He threw the powder into the air. The powder turned into the image of a dragon and tiger. Under the sunlight, it became even more beautiful. It was very bright. The man threw a few handfuls of powder, and then took out a firework from his pocket. The firework flew straight into the sky, and flew straight to the top of the cloud before exploding. It is strange to say that this firework can actually fly in the sky. During the day, golden light shines, and the shapes of two swallows emerge.
Seeing such a wonderful scene, Yan Guyuan and the guests of the Yan Mansion were all amazed, praising that the Seven Saints of the Western Regions really had some magical powers.
While everyone in the Yan Mansion was attracted by the fireworks, the person holding the Ruyi Flag was gently shaking the Ruyi Flag. As the Ruyi Flag shook, a strange fragrance began to spread in the Yan Mansion!
