Chapter 238 Five Years
Time flies by.

Five years have passed in the blink of an eye.

There have been many, many changes in the past five years.

First of all, people in the world have become more miserable.

I used to be hungry, but now I still have to satisfy the "hobbies" of "Liu Hong". From time to time, I will find a reason to make you pay, and the tax rate is getting higher and higher.

It doesn't matter to the rich.

Not because they are not short of money, but because they have plenty of ways not to pay the money.

Then some people may ask, what should rich households do if they don’t pay?

The answer is simple. Since the rich households do not pay, of course they are squeezed out from the farmers!

So farmers are miserable.

It's okay if they pay it, but if you don't pay it, then you will be called for debt every day, or even go too far and search it yourself, as long as there are valuable items in your house, they will be taken away for tax credit.

And what is the most valuable thing for farmers?

Except for life, there may be only food, and after paying this food, life is basically gone.

Therefore, there are more and more people in the world who are "taking advantage of others", and the world's atmosphere is getting worse and worse.

The second thing is that most of the Yellow Turbans have been wiped out, except for those who keep the regiment warm, such as the Black Mountain Bandits, Qingzhou Bandits, and Baibo Bandits. (Slightly modified.)
They occupy one side, and because of their large number, the Han government basically has nothing to do with them.

Why can the big man defeat Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban, but not the Yellow Turban led by a 'little man'?

Although he didn't say it directly, everyone understood.

This is because 'Liu Hong' did nothing, and not all of those county guards are as capable as Chen Lei.

The best thing those sheriffs can do is to 'coexist peacefully' with them.

And the third thing, which also had a great influence on Chen Lei, is that Tao Qian did not come to Xuzhou to be a state shepherd.

The reason is very simple. It was originally because Ba Zhi was accidentally killed by the Yellow Turban in the chaos, so Tao Qian was sent by Liu Hong to Xuzhou to attack the Yellow Turban Army. Now the Xuzhou Yellow Turban has been killed by Xu Xuan who has nothing to do in his spare time Pull the soldiers out one by one to kill them.

There are no yellow turban bandits in Xuzhou, so Tao Qian naturally didn't come to Xuzhou to take office.

The current state pastor is still Ba Zhi.

And because Hu Zhao was a good friend of Ba Zhi, Chen Lei and Ba Zhi often met each other.

Chen Lei himself is relatively outstanding, and with Chen Lei's reputation outside, Ba Zhi admires Chen Lei very much. If Chen Lei hadn't already been married, Ba Zhi would have wanted to be Chen Lei's father-in-law.

And the fourth thing is actually the most important thing for Chen Lei.

That means Chen Lei is about to become a father!
During this year, Chen Lei's wife Lu Yu and his former maid and current concubine Xia Jing were pregnant with children.

Although it was too early to be a father at the age of 22 in the previous life, he was still just graduated from university.

But in this world, there are a lot of people who have children at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and it is too late to have children at the age of 22.

However, this was the result of Chen Lei's deliberate control. Giving birth to a child too early would be bad for Lu Yu's health.

Don't ask why Chen Lei can control it.

Just ask and you will be chosen by lottery!
And the fifth thing is that Xiang Shu has taken root in Guangling.

Opened a snack shop in Guangling.

I do nothing every day, just watch the people passing by in this restaurant. Anyway, there are servants taking care of everything.

But from time to time she would disguise herself as a man and talk back to Chen Lei.

This made Chen Lei helpless.

Originally, this guy only had one martial arts master.

But after Xiang Shu took root in Guangling, two more half-step martial arts masters came, and their strength was stronger than that of the junior princes in the eighteenth princes.

That's right.

He was talking about the future Jizhou Mu Han Fu, after all, General Pan Feng was the one who said it!

In fact, apart from these things, many major events have happened in Dahan in the past five years, but Chen Lei didn't pay too much attention to it.

For example, the second year of Zhongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 185).

Liu Hong collected it for his private collection. He ordered people to build the Wanjin Hall in the West Garden, and moved the state's property and money into the hall for private use.

Another example is that there was a fire in Luoyang in February. Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others persuaded Liu Hong to build a palace and cast bronze figures. So Liu Hong ordered the world that in addition to normal taxes, ten large coins should be paid for every acre of land to help the Han build the palace. potential.

He also took the opportunity to take the credit for the crusade against Zhang Jiao, and appointed each of the twelve permanent servants as a waiter.

At the beginning of this year, Liu Hong also issued a general amnesty to the world in response to everyone's opinions.

Otherwise, millions of people directly or indirectly participated in the Yellow Turban rebellion, and many civilians were coerced. If all these people were killed, the national power of the big man would drop by several levels.

Another example is the third year of Zhongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 186).

Zhao Ci of Jiangxia County rebelled against the Han and killed Qin Jie, the prefect of Nanyang County, but was killed by Jingzhou Governor Wang Rui within a few months.

Rebellions broke out in the fourth and fifth years of Zhongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty (187~188 AD).

In the fourth year of Zhongping, the peasants in Xingyang County revolted. The rebel army attacked Zhongmu and beheaded Zhongmu Ling Luohao and the master Pan Ye. He Jin's half-brother He Miao killed him within a month.

In August of the same year, Zhang Chun, the governor of Zhongshan, rebelled. However, he was put on hold again because of the rebellion of the Southern Xiongnu, and he lived for an extra year.

In the fifth year of Zhongping, the Banzhen barbarians in Bajun rebelled; Ma Xiang and Zhao Zhi rebelled. (184~188 is five years)
But in 189, Liu Hong's body suddenly took a turn for the worse.

Maybe in this world, except Han Chun and Chen Lei, no one else knows about Liu Hong's imminent death.

He Jin was eager to try, as if he was planning something.

The Zhongchangshi Group headed by Han Chun was not to be outdone, and seemed to be planning a more sinister plan.

In Guangling County Shoufu.

Xu Xuan was lazily lying on the teacher's chair beside him.

"Master Chen, what do you think is wrong with Liu Hong? He has recruited so many concubines, but he can't keep any of them. Logically speaking, there will be no problem, and if there is a problem, he won't be able to leave any heirs!"

Chen Lei replied with a smile, "Who knows, maybe he is weak."

Xu Xuan cut out, "This Liu Hong has all the rare treasures in the world, how can he still be weak?"

Eat more supplements every day, it is absolutely impossible to be empty, okay?
"Maybe it's because of overwork." Mo Hai winked at the side and said.

Chen Lei kicked him, "No one is in shape!"

Mo Hai chuckled, but didn't speak.

The situation in Guangling Prefect's Mansion is not like that of Zhang Jiao. Everyone inside has a high degree of favorability and is unlikely to rebel, so they can talk freely without fear of anyone spreading the word.

"According to me, this Liu Hong is really in a good mood, and he has accepted more than 400 concubines this year!"

"Who says it's not? It's not enough time to go to one place in a day. I really don't know what he thinks." Xu Xuan sighed.

You really know how to play, this Liu Hong.

Chen Lei also shook his head, "Maybe he's more lustful."

In the second half, Chen Lei didn't say it out, but said silently in his heart, "It may also be revenge entertainment, and he wants to enjoy everything he didn't enjoy before." '

But this is just his guess, completely groundless.

"By the way, Uncle He, have you fully recovered?"

He Yu on the side smiled, "Yeah!"
