Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 2280 The Prodigal Son

Du Ziqing glanced at Baili Celing, "Whether Xiao Liu and the others can be trusted, you should know better than me."

He said meaningfully, "After all, you were all 'five capital boys' back then, weren't you?"

Baili Celing smiled wryly, "Stop teasing, you Wudu boy."

It's almost called "Five Poison Boys".

But what Du Ziqing said was right, he and Xie Liu did have such nicknames when they were in the capital.

This nickname sounds nice, but in fact it refers specifically to those libertines, and it originated from the previous dynasty.

The kings of the former dynasty loved to build mausoleums in a place called Wuling near the capital. Five large imperial tombs were built here.

Later, the common people called those playboys who wandered around the capital all day "Wuling Boys."

In Guiyang, the capital of the Great Qin Dynasty more than ten years ago, although there were no tombs of five emperors, there were children from the Five Kingdoms gathered from all over the country.

The establishment of each dynasty is accompanied by the decline of the previous dynasty's family and the rise of the heroes of the dynasty.

The real aristocratic families can survive the change of dynasties, and the reason why these families can last for thousands of years is all due to their extremely high team standing skills.

It's just that there are times when standing in line, because Qin is located in a remote place in the northwest, Qin King Yingdi was originally not favored by the aristocratic family.Many aristocrats from other countries did not act until King Qin annexed the Five Kingdoms, and did not receive first-class credit. This greatly affected the status of the family at the beginning of the establishment of Great Qin.

Some families chose to live in seclusion, preparing to wait for the next reincarnation, while most of the families who could not bear the decline of their family status chose to seek new opportunities in the capital of Great Qin.

Southern Chu, Eastern Wu, and Northern Wei have all been reduced to vassal states for a long time, and the attractiveness of their capitals has been greatly reduced. However, Guiyang, the capital of the Great Qin Dynasty, has gathered the best practitioners and immortal officials in the whole continent.

A new dynasty also means new opportunities. Even if Conglong Zhigong did not catch up, the Qin Emperor and the National Teacher Commander ordered a large-scale selection of talents in the capital. As long as the descendants of the family are sent to the capital, it may open up a new path for the family the way.

Under such circumstances, since the first year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the population of the capital of the Qin State has skyrocketed, and nobles from various vassal states have moved to Guiyang, the capital of Qin.

The relocation of an aristocratic family is not a dragging of the family. For a large family with many entanglements, the local power in the hometown is also very important, and the direct branch will not leave the hometown easily.

A knowledgeable family will choose to keep the eldest family in their hometown, and let the second or third family go to Guiyang to find another way.

Due to the influx of a large number of nobles from other places, the land price in Guiyang soared, and it became extremely difficult for a large family to settle in the capital.

Under such circumstances, many families took the second best option and sent outstanding children without inheritance rights to the capital city in order to open a new path for the family.

As more and more young people went to Guiyang, many other situations gradually emerged.

There are concubines who are not favored by the family, and they pack their bags and travel alone in Beijing; Come and count on those who can reform themselves in a good environment...

Baili Celing doesn't know whether the Great Qin Capital City is a good environment. He only knows that the Guiyang City back then was the richest and most mixed place in the entire mountain and sea continent.

It was like a sea, where people from all over the place mixed together, containing both the best and the worst, geniuses and villains, gods and demons.

However, for young people who come to Guiyang alone, Guodu is obviously not a good place.

Without the supervision of parents and elders, young people who are not well-versed in the world can easily get lost in the world of luxury and money.

Even for young people who used to be proud, Guiyang City can always find practitioners with more talent and family background than them, and they can easily smash their pride to pieces.

Except for a few people with firm minds, most of the children of the "half-hangers" who moved from the capitals of other vassal states have become out-and-out playboys in Guiyang City, hanging out with a group of local prodigal sons, playing horses and watching horses every day. Flowers, picking quarrels and provoking trouble.

There are countless high-level practitioners guarding Guiyang City, and in most cases, no one would be killed, but they often make trouble, galloping on the streets during the day, even cats and dogs are disgusted.

The people of Guiyang, who were deeply affected by it, called them "the youths of Wudu."

Baili Celing smiled wryly. To put it bluntly, he was also a member of the "Five Capital Boys" back then.

He has no right to say that Xie Liu is unreliable, after all, when he was a teenager, he could be called an asshole.Apart from murder and arson, he has done almost all the bastard things. The family was completely disappointed with him, cut off his money, and let him fend for himself in Guiyang City.

It was during that period of ignorance like a walking corpse that he got to know most of the people in the Black Tiger Army, including Xie Liu.

Xie Liu was the youngest son of Lang Zhongling, one of the Nine Ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty. Because he was spoiled too much by Mrs. Tai, he had an arrogant temper and started to visit flower houses when he was seven or eight years old. He was a famous young master in Guiyang City who spent money.

The corner of Baili Celing's mouth twitched. Speaking of which, someone once said that Lin Shubai was "picking up trash" when he formed the Black Tiger Army.

Whether it is him or Xie Liu, they are all hopeless people in the eyes of the family.

When Xie Liu was 13 years old, in order to compete for a top card in Hualou, he fought with another son of Jiuqing in the street and almost killed him. His grandmother who loved him was also stimulated and died.

Lang Zhongling was furious and personally opened the ancestral hall to expel Xie Liu from the genealogy and threw him on the street.

Xie Liu himself was also seriously injured, lying on the corner of the street and no one healed him.Lang Zhongling not only expelled him from the clan, but also sent a message to tell anyone to leave him alone, so all the cronies didn't dare to approach Xie Liu.

Xie Liu's father's attitude was that he wanted his son to die on the street, in the name of the whole family.

Baili Celing raised his head and looked at the long yellow sand in front of him.

He was also greatly touched at that time.

Seeing Xie Liu lying dying outside the house, Baili Celing felt sad for the first time.

They eat, drink and have fun outside under the banner of the family. They seem to be romantic and happy, but in fact they have nothing.

The family detested them, and would abandon them at some point. No one needed them, and they themselves had no abilities, so they didn't know what they should live for.

Baili Celing felt that one day he might just look like Xie Liu, lying on the corner of the street, no one cared about him, and died without accomplishing anything.

It's just that Xie Liu's life didn't end on that day.

A woman in white walked by the door of Lang Zhongling's mansion and picked Xie Liu back.
