It is said that Emperor Huizong was ambitious and wanted to do something earth-shattering. He wanted to take back the Yanyun homeland that he had been obsessed with taking back since Emperor Taizu. However, at this time, the Song Dynasty was already in crisis. Hundreds of miles northeast of Tokyo, Liangshan bandits harassed people from time to time, killing people and stealing goods, doing all kinds of evil, disturbing the peace in the area; in the south of the Yangtze River, under Zhu Meng's crazy squeeze, a shocking incident was brewing. Emperor Huizong knew about the situation in Liangshan; but Emperor Huizong knew nothing about the situation in Jiangnan, and did not feel the coming crisis at all. He was still sensual and immersed in the false prosperity.

At that time, under the auspices of Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Wang Fu, Yang Jian and others, the capital was built to be splendid, prosperous and magnificent. When he was free from government affairs, Huizong often went to the palace to play, looking up and down, it was very pleasing to the eye. It was almost as if he had entered the vast cold, floating like a fairy, and was extremely happy.

In order to make the capital and the palace more prosperous and interesting, Cai Jing and others took great pains.

At that time, there was Genyue in Tokyo, which was originally a garden made of man-made rocks. Cai Jing wanted to make clouds and mist appear over Genyue to create an image of a fairyland on earth, so that Emperor Huizong would become a god in the future. , and ordered the craftsmen to make some large oilcloth bags. After soaking them in water, the eunuchs would place them among the strange rocks in the garden at dawn to capture the morning clouds and mist, and store them for later use. When Emperor Huizong came to visit the garden, he ordered the eunuchs to open the oilcloth bags and release the collected clouds and mist from the oilcloth bags. For a while, the mountains were filled with clouds and mist, which was mysterious and strange, making people feel like they were in a fairyland. He called this phenomenon " "Gong Yun" to please Emperor Huizong.

Not counting this, Emperor Huizong could not be so intoxicated that he forgot that he was the king of the world. Cai Jing further searched for exotic flowers, trees, and rocks from all over the country, and wanted to transport them all to Tokyo, so that he could turn the royal garden into a fairyland. So that Emperor Huizong could concentrate on being the Daojun Emperor.

Based on this, Cai Jing ordered Zhu Meng to search everywhere for treasures, rare stones, exotic flowers and plants, and euphemistically called them: Huashi Gang. The Commander-in-Chief's Palace selected officers to escort the collection of flowers and stones collected from the people to various places and transported them to the capital to fill the royal gardens. This triggered the Liangshan Rebellion.

It is said that there is an envoy named Yang Zhi in the Commandery of Tokyo Palace, who is the grandson of the founding general Yang Ye and Yang Linggong. He was born with an eight-foot body and a majestic appearance. He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. He is proficient in eighteen kinds of weapons. At the age of twenty, Yang Zhi took part in the martial arts examination, passed the martial arts examination, and was able to serve as a military commander, and along the way he reached the official position of the imperial envoy. Yang Zhi was so good at martial arts that he was called the "green-faced beast" because of the green birthmark on his face.

Prime Minister Cai Jing's order was sent to the Palace Commander's Mansion, and Gao Qiu, the Commander-in-Chief of the Palace Commander's Mansion, selected ten envoys to escort Hua Shigang to various places. Among the ten envoys selected by Commander Gao Taiwei, there was Yang Zhi, the "green-faced beast" who was highly skilled in martial arts.

Gao Qiu, the commander-in-chief of the palace, thought that Yang Zhi was from Guanxi, so he sent Yang Zhi to Jiezhou to escort the strange stone treasures collected by local officials. It was also time to take Yang Zhi on his back. On the way to Tokyo when Yang Zhi was escorting Hua Shi Gang, the boat was overturned by big waves in the Yellow River, and all the strange stone treasures in the boat were dumped into the Yellow River.

Yang Zhi was so frightened when he saw that he had lost Huashi Gang of the imperial court that he did not dare to return to the Palace Commander Gao Taiwei in Tokyo to resume his life. After much deliberation, he decided on thirty-six strategies and found that walking was the best strategy, so he fled everywhere.

Nine of the ten envoys sent at the same time escorted Hua Shigang back to the capital, but the green-faced beast Yang Zhi did not return. Cai Jing then ordered Gao Qiu, the commander-in-chief of the palace, to investigate. Gao Taiwei, the commander-in-chief of the Palace, sent people to investigate and found out that the Hua Shi Gang that Yang Zhi was escorting capsized in the Yellow River, and all the Hua Shi Gang in the boat sank into the Yellow River. Yang Zhi also fled because of his guilt.

Hearing that Yang Zhi had lost Huashi Gang, Cai Jing was furious and ordered the Palace Commander's Mansion to search for Yang Zhi. Gao Qiu, the commander-in-chief of the palace, then issued a sea arrest document. The document stated Yang Zhi's year and place of birth, and also drew Yang Zhi's appearance. Searches were made everywhere, but Yang Zhi was not captured in the end.

A few years later, the imperial court granted amnesty to the whole world. Yang Zhi embraced a jade vase passed down by his ancestor She Taijun, a sword left by Mr. Yang Laoling in his waist, carried a load of scraped jewelry on his shoulders, ate in the open air, and worked tirelessly. He rushed all the way to Tokyo, asked someone to intercede, and went to see Lieutenant Gao to reinstate him to his original position and become his envoy again.

Yang Zhi begged for mercy in many ways, and was finally recommended to go to the Palace Commander's Mansion to meet Gao Qiu, Commander-in-Chief Gao.

After being introduced, Yang Zhi rushed into the palace excitedly, prostrated himself in the hall of the palace commander Gao Taiwei, and loudly reported: "I am here, Taiwei, and the guilty general Yang Zhi had to flee in all directions because of the crime of falling into the Huashi Gang of the imperial court. Today, the imperial court is granting amnesty to the whole world. The guilty general has long admired the power of the Taiwei, and is willing to regain his old position, abide by his duties, and serve the country with all his loyalty. I sincerely ask the Taiwei to look at the humble face of our ancestors and take more care of them."

After saying that, Yang Zhi got up and presented the ancestral treasure, which was a jade bottle left by Mrs. She.

Unexpectedly, Taiwei Gao hated Yang Zhi for losing control under his command, so he scolded Yang Zhidao: "The emperor built Wansui Mountain and sent you and other ten envoys to transport the flowers and stones, but all nine envoys were transported back safely. You made the ship capsize and sank?! I would like to ask you, how big the wind and waves can be in the Yellow River? How many rocks can blow over a boat?! It must be that you are greedy, pervert the law, and embezzle money. You got the treasure, but you said it was capsized! Now, you use a fake jade bottle to deceive me, which is really abominable!"

While cursing, Gao Qiu threw the jade vase given by Yang Zhi to the ground. There was a "bang" sound, and the jade vase was indeed broken. It looked like it was not genuine.

When Gao Qiu saw this, he became even more angry. He was so angry that he jumped to his feet and cursed. He ordered the Yamen servants to say: "This guy is very abominable! Although the imperial court is granting amnesty to the whole world, I am still honoring him. Come on! Give this guy to my commander quickly." go out."

After hearing the order, several sergeants rushed forward and beat Yang Zhi randomly with sticks. Yang Zhi was beaten out of the Palace Commander's Mansion by the government officials with sticks.

Yang Zhi was beaten out of the Palace Commander's Mansion by a yamen officer with a stick. The load of jewels he had picked up was also lost in the Palace Commander's Mansion. He had no money on him and had nowhere to go. He was alone, so he sold his belongings on the street. The treasured sword left by our ancestor, Old Ling Gong.

As the saying goes, people are unlucky, ghosts blow out lamps, and farts hit their heels. Yang Zhi was unlucky enough to have his heel smashed.

At that time, Yang Zhi was helpless and trapped in the capital, so he had to sell his ancestral sword on the street in exchange for some money to get out of trouble.

Yang Zhi was walking alone on the street when he suddenly heard someone shouting: "Run quickly, the big insect is coming!"

Following the shouting, Yang Zhi saw people on the street panic and flee in all directions.

It's really weird to see his family! Yang Zhi thought to himself, where could the tiger come from in this broad daylight, in public, in the bustling streets? ! Isn’t this nonsense!

Yang Zhi heard the sound and went to look, but he didn't see a tiger running towards him. Instead, he saw a big man, swaying three times and running slowly towards him.

People on the street fled in panic because they were afraid of this guy.

When Yang Zhi saw this, he smiled and thought to himself: "Just tell me, how can there be a tiger in such a bustling street? It turns out that the tiger others called him is this guy."

Yang Zhi didn't know that this tough guy was Niu Er, a famous gangster on the streets of Tokyo. Because of his arrogance and unreasonable behavior, people in the street were afraid of him and gave him the nickname "Big Bug" .

Therefore, in the Song Dynasty, the big insect referred to the tiger. Wu Song killed a big insect in Jingyanggang. You must not think that Wu Song just killed a big insect; in fact, what Wu Song killed in Jingyanggang was a brutal mountain tiger.

Not to mention a rogue Niu Er, Yang Zhi was not afraid even if the tiger really came.

Therefore, Yang Zhi didn't take it seriously. Instead of running away in panic like the people on the street, he stood there and waited for someone with knowledge to buy his ancestral sword.

At this time, Yang Zhi was in panic and dissatisfaction. He was also ashamed and angry because Gao Qiu ordered the Yamen servant to beat him with a stick and beat the general out of the Palace Commander's Mansion.

How did Niu Er know that this man was the green-faced beast Yang Zhi? How did you know that Yang Zhi was so good at martial arts? How did you know that Yang Zhi had just been beaten with a stick by Gao Qiu, the palace servant? Who knew that Yang Zhizheng was extremely ashamed and angry at this time!

If he had known, he would not have dared to provoke Yang Zhi even if he borrowed 200 courage from the cow.

Because Niu Er didn't know, he came to provoke Yang Zhi.

At that time, Niu Er came to Yang Zhi and yelled at Yang Zhi: "You guys, everyone in the street avoided me when they saw me. Whose influence did you borrow to dare to look down on me?"

Yang Zhijian said and replied casually: "The road is facing the sky, everyone goes to one side. You go your own way, why should I avoid you? Could it be that you are the Holy Emperor?"

Niu Er heard the words and said angrily: "Zhuo! What did you do, boy? Tell me quickly, so as not to hurt your flesh and blood."

When Yang Zhi saw this, he was furious and thought to himself, what kind of bird are you that dare to act wild in front of me? ! However, Yang Zhi then thought to himself, one more thing is worse than one less thing. I have fallen into this situation, why should I provoke him? I can't argue with him.

Thinking like this, Yang Zhisui suppressed the anger in his heart and said nothing.

When Niu Er saw Yang Zhi not paying attention to him, he was furious and shouted loudly: "Zhuo! You guy! Say! What are you doing?!"

Yang Zhi glanced at Niu Er and replied calmly: "I am from Guanxi. I was trapped in the capital because of my money and money. In desperation, I sold my ancestor's sword to solve the problem."

When Niu Er heard that Yang Zhi was selling precious swords, he became interested. He stared at Yang Zhi, stretched his hand in front of Yang Zhi's face, and said loudly: "What kind of sword do you have, man? Come here and see."

When Yang Zhi saw this, he handed the sword in his hand to Niu's hands.

Niu Er took the sword in his hand, turned his head left and right, stared at it for a while, and then returned the sword to Yang Zhi, saying: "What a broken sword, how dare you call it a precious sword! As for your knife, I can pick up a few of them in any shop. You guys, let me ask you, where is the treasure of your knife?"

When Yang Zhi asked, he told where his sword was and demonstrated it on the spot. Sure enough, it was a sword.

Niu Er was hot-eyed and wanted to blackmail Yang Zhibao's sword, so the two became entangled.

Yang Zhi was pushed around by Niu Er. Finally, he couldn't hold back his anger. He pulled Niu Er away and cursed, "You are a piece of shit who doesn't want to leave this world alive, so I'll send you away!" After that, he raised his hand and with a "puff" of a knife, killed that rogue Niu Er in the street.

Niu Er was usually arrogant and bully, but he had already been full of evil. When people in the street saw Niu Er being killed, they all cheered loudly! Cheers and jumps.

The disaster was eliminated for the people, but Yang Zhi got into a lawsuit and was arrested by the government officials and brought to Kaifeng Mansion for questioning.

The governor of Kaifeng asked about the situation, and many people testified and pleaded for mercy, so he thought that Yang Zhinai had no choice but to eliminate harm for the people, and he was considered a good man. In addition, Niu Er had no relatives and no one would pursue the consequences, so Yang Zhinai was spared. Yang Zhi was sentenced to death and ordered to serve in the army.

Why didn't Gao Qiu, the commander-in-chief of the palace, accept Yang Zhi's property? Is it possible that Gao Qiu is an upright official with clean sleeves? No! Gao Qiu cannot see the descendants of loyal ministers.

Gao Qiu thought to himself, you are a descendant of loyal ministers and loyal to the court. I have recruited you to serve as an envoy. How can I do bad things in the future? Therefore, Gao Qiu didn't want to see Yang Zhi, so he ordered the government officials to beat Yang Zhi out with sticks. As a result, Yang Zhi killed someone and was sent to the Liang Zhong Secretariat of Daming Prefecture and was sent to the army.

Yang Zhi was not the only one who was framed by Gao Qiu. His 800,000-strong Forbidden Army coach Lin Chong was forced to go to Liangshan because his son Gao Yanei fell in love with Lin Chong's wife.
