In the tenth year of Zhaoping, Jinshui County suffered a locust plague that was rare in a century.
For a time, rice beads and laurels are worth their weight in gold. The county officials are still tightening their belts to survive, and the common people have no food left at home. The poor and lowly slaves even exchange their sons for food.
In the spring of the next year, the imperial concubine Zheng gave birth to a daughter. When Feng'er was born, heavy snow fell from the sky, and the vast water reflected the water-colored moonlight, making the entire capital as bright as day.
Qin Tianjian predicted: Auspicious snow heralds a good year, and the famine that has dominated the Fu Kingdom for three years is about to end.
Strange to say, it seems that in response to the heavy snow, in the eleventh year of Zhaoping, the country had a good harvest, sweeping away the disasters, and presenting a prosperous scene.
Emperor Dayue gave his daughter the name Haoxue, the title Chengrui, and the ten cities of Yuzhou were designated as food towns. A feast was held in the Sixth Street of Hadu, where the king and the people enjoyed themselves together.
Liuyan huddled inside the gates of Lodu, while famine generously drove refugees from all over the world to flock to Lodu.
The auspicious omen could not fill their stomachs, and the wailing and shriveled corpses that followed constituted a discordant noise in the performance of chanting the saints.
The noise was quickly wiped away, and Yao Yao continued the delicate and intoxicating tune.
The refugees dispersed like an ebbing tide, the Imperial Guards had an extra feat to boast about, and the faces of the adults in Lodu became brighter and brighter.
The snow had almost stopped when Xue Shiliu arrived, and there were occasional pieces of meat and bones hanging in the cracks of the exposed floor tiles, silently recounting the prosperity of a few days ago.
Chaodu has always been infinitely tolerant of beggars and used its residue to support these scavenging animals. He even survived after sneaking into Haodu.
When he was a little older, Xue Shiliu recognized an old eunuch as his father. The old eunuch poured the bucket in the palace of the legendary Princess Chengrui. After her death, Xue Shiliu naturally took over his job.
People must have the ability to survive in this world.
The emperor sat in the court, the generals beheaded thieves, the scholars studied, and the butchers killed pigs.
Xue Shiliu did his duty and was like this every day. Four years like this can be considered a happy one.
Unexpectedly, one day when he was walking back and forth on the backyard path as usual, something hit him in the face.
It smashed his face and changed his life.
At that time, he just picked it up and looked at it——
A pearl embroidered shoe.
