Chapter 49 Listening to the book(2/2)

"There are very lively and nice new books. My uncle has booked a private room. Let's listen now." Master Ji San said happily.

It turned out to be listening to a new book, which is much more interesting than listening to the monk Wuxu telling old stories. Ji Xiaotang nodded happily.

The uncle and nephew, surrounded by all the girls and servants, went to Yuelai Teahouse. The staff of the teahouse had seen Master Ji San, so they hurriedly came up to him and led everyone into the private room on the second floor and sat down.

All kinds of fragrant tea and desserts were delivered like flowing water.

The young man couldn't take his eyes away when he saw Ji Xiaotang. After being glared at by Master Ji San, the young man immediately did not dare to look in the direction of Ji Xiaotang again.

Master Ji San asked the servant to reward the servant, so he asked the servant to leave.

Yuelai Teahouse is the most famous teahouse in Qingyuan, and the layout of the private rooms is very good.

There are thick mahogany furniture in the hall. In front of the stage below, facing the stage below is a square table with marble-shaped Eight Immortals crossing the sea. On the square table and on both sides, there are carved high-back chairs on each side. Under the south window is a long one with plum vases on top, and the new flowers are inserted. There are four high-back chairs on each side, with a few short ones separated from each other. Further back, on the east wall are two antique landscape paintings, and on the west side is a screen embroidered with flowers and birds. The curtains behind the screen are hanging low.

Ji Xiaotang looked around and nodded in her heart. She could come to this place a few more times in the future.

Master Ji San and Ji Xiaotang sat on both sides of the table, drinking tea and listening to books.

This new book turns out to be a legendary story.

Ji Xiaotang listened for a while and was a little surprised.

The story is set in the last years of the previous dynasty.

Now the Qin Dynasty has been peaceful for less than a hundred years, but it has experienced nearly sixty years of chaos. The chaos began in the late years of the previous dynasty.

The founding Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty was also a civil and military power, and he had been in power for more than 300 years. However, by the end of the Song Dynasty, the national strength gradually declined. The monarch was incompetent and the officialdom was dark. In addition, the years of floods and droughts and natural disasters, the people complained, and the flag of uprising was raised everywhere.

As the saying goes, "Is there any king, prince, general, and minister?" The last emperor of the Song Dynasty, Qi Xuan, was reigned for only ten years, and was defeated by Xie Guangde, who was proclaimed as the King of Yan.

Xie Guangde was born as a refugee, but in just over a decade, he gathered the largest force in the world at that time, and replaced it with the Song Dynasty and changed the country's name to Dayan.

The Great Yan only passed down for two generations and died after twenty years.
