23第十一章 金刀镖局3（1/2）

( ) 跟-我-读WEN文-XUE学-LOU楼 记住哦！ 叶曼青望着郝灵灵的背影若有所思<></span>一旁的齐楚也在歪着头看着郝云栖众人上楼<></span>嘴里咕咕哝哝地不知道在说些什么<></span>

<></span>叶姑娘<></span>那晚的那个人就是绑架你们的匪徒吧<></span><></span>木怀彦的眼眸似水下青石<></span>幽清分明却半点也看不透彻<></span>

叶曼青一愣<></span>才明白他说的是魏老三<></span>

<></span>是啊<></span>那人名叫魏老三<></span>是四个匪徒之一<></span>那晚他等在那就是为了抓我们<></span><></span>想起那日的事<></span>叶曼青仍是心有余悸<></span><></span>差点就被他逮到<></span>幸好遇到你<></span>说起来真得好好谢谢你呢<></span><></span>

木怀彦却是脸色一黯：<></span>叶姑娘千万别这么说<></span>若不是在下犹疑不定<></span>也不至于让那魏老三脱逃<></span>更何况……更何况<></span>在下险些害了叶姑娘<></span><></span>

叶曼青神思微恍<></span>那时他阻止她杀人时她是有怨恨的<></span>不为其他<></span>仅仅是因为他那般悠闲的姿态、那种轻松的语气<></span>好像她的狼狈如此可笑……叶曼青忽地一笑：<></span>你别在意我那会儿说的气话<></span>真的谢谢你<></span>你救了我<></span><></span>让她免去那肮脏残酷的鲜血洗礼<></span>让她不至于真的发疯<></span>这些天的相处<></span>她已经很清楚<></span>这个叫木怀彦的男子<></span>有着一颗怎样纯善的心灵<></span>

木怀彦仍是皱着眉头<></span>张张嘴<></span>却没再说什么<></span>

一直安静得有些过分的齐楚忽地一拍桌：<></span>想起来了<></span><></span>

叶曼青拍拍胸口白他一眼：<></span>想起什么了<></span><></span><></span>

<></span>嘿嘿……<></span>齐楚抚着下巴贼笑<></span><></span>郝家兄妹啊<></span>我说怎么那个郝云栖的名字越听越耳熟呢<></span>原来是金刀镖局的大公子<></span><></span>

<></span>金刀镖局<></span><></span>

<></span>纪州第一大镖局<></span>据说镖局的牌匾还是当今皇上亲手题就<></span><></span>

木怀彦几乎就是个名词解释家<></span>基本上只要是叶曼青不懂的他都解释得清清楚楚<></span>在他的细心<></span>教导<></span>下<></span>叶曼青好歹对这个世界有了点常识性了解<></span>

传说天地初开之时<></span>云气飘飞水雾离散<></span>独留下沉浊之物凝结为陆地<></span>居于四方八合之中<></span>时有神光自九天照耀而下<></span>亮彻天地<></span>积阴之物莫不消弭散尽<></span>云风瞬清<></span>山民自称天熙人<></span>乃为<></span>天之熙光<></span><></span>

天熙大陆西线为沙漠雪峰大泽所围<></span>东线临海<></span>海岸线绵长<></span>大陆自古以来便以黄道周天十二次为州城划分<></span>建有十二州<></span>从北至南分别为梁州大梁、烨州大火、烈州鹑火、凭州玄枵、纪州星纪、昴州鹑首、实州实沈、娄州降娄、禹州诹訾、颖州析木、随州寿至、并州鹑尾<></span>

十二州各自为政<></span>风俗各有不同<></span>数千年来<></span>各州之间征战不休<></span>都想吞并其他州城一统天熙大陆<></span>但从未有人成功过<></span>直到三百多年前前朝太祖杨修武借凭、纪、禹三个中部洲城战乱之时起事<></span>得以掌控三洲之地<></span>后又以十五年之功<></span>逐步夺得东部昴州、并州<></span>北部烈州、烨州<></span>西部梁州、娄州等<></span>建都中鸿城<></span>国号为<></span>靖<></span><></span>年号<></span>修元<></span><></span>南部实、颖、随三洲与其他各州分处墨江南北<></span>本就相交不多<></span>又见杨修武开国立朝<></span>迫于其威势<></span>便纳贡朝见<></span>以臣属身份自居<></span>由此<></span>靖国从大局上统一了天熙大陆<></span>

此后百多年<></span>靖国朝政主要以养民息兵为主<></span>十二州互通有无<></span>渐成一国之势<></span>州城之分淡去不少<></span>可惜好景不长<></span>后继帝王渐渐抛了祖先勤俭之风<></span>贪图享乐而不思进取<></span>罔顾百姓朝政混乱<></span>上行下效<></span>派驻各州城的官员贪腐之风盛行<></span>搜刮民脂民膏不遗余力<></span>抽税明目繁多花样百出<></span>又加各州城税制变动频繁<></span>随意更改<></span>百姓不满之心愈重<></span>

三十四年前靖炀帝即位后<></span>朝政不但未有改善<></span>反而愈加黑暗混乱<></span>靖炀帝专宠伶人侯萧<></span>每逢侯萧诞辰之时<></span>连王公大臣都得向其敬贺<></span>侯萧为人专横霸道<></span>言语刻薄<></span>为各州城将官所恶<></span>安平三年<></span>纪州刺史明尚言被污冒犯靖炀帝而被杀<></span>其族人皆被流放漠北<></span>安平五年<></span>适逢夏季暴雨时节<></span>各地山洪塌方灾害不断<></span>尤以娄、禹二州境况最糟<></span>洪涝之后便是蝗灾<></span>庄稼颗粒无收<></span>百姓食草啃树<></span>难得一顿温饱<></span>然而朝廷征收的田税却一分不少<></span>被逼卖儿鬻女者不计其数<></span>禹州风阴山一朝风起<></span>义民揭竿求生<></span>短短两日便连克胡里、罗库两城<></span>诛贪官开粮仓<></span>大快人心<></span>一时间<></span>天下各地效仿者如林中星火<></span>昼夜更替<></span>纷纷然十二州遍地都是义旗飘飞<></span>可叹的是<></span>靖炀帝却仍是每日笙歌夜舞醉生梦死<></span>靖炀帝幼弟肃宁王请命出兵扫荡义军以靖国势<></span>肃宁王自幼娴习兵法<></span>傲岸不群<></span>大军到处<></span>各地义军闻风而逃<></span>

安平七年<></span>明家三子明展翼于烨州起事<></span>联合纪州、梁州及凭州西部南宫世家之力<></span>以迅雷不及掩耳之势<></span>在短短三天间便攻下凭州<></span>生擒恰巧出城田猎的靖炀帝和侯萧等人<></span>其时肃宁王仍陷禹州<></span>鞭长莫及<></span>待他快马赶回之时<></span>靖炀帝已被斩首于中鸿城外<></span>闻此噩耗<></span>肃宁王仰天泣血<></span>誓言不杀明展翼绝不二生<></span>
