                                                                                                                                                                竹儿奇道:“这个方腊是宋朝人士,这洞窟岂不是有二百多年之久?”
                                                                                                                                                                菊儿问道:“什么妖言惑众,兴兵作乱,这方腊到底是什么人?”
                                                                                                                                                                康定风缓缓道:“宋徽宗时,因他性好珍物玩意,尤喜花石。丞相蔡京便派朱冲至苏杭两地,采取珍异奇宝进献,后觅得黄杨三本,高有八九尺,实是罕见的珍品,徽宗大喜。蔡京见皇帝欢喜,遂密保另一人叫朱腼,着他在苏州设一应奉局,专为皇帝采办花石,号称为花石纲。”
                                                                                                                                                                “这个朱腼得此美差,内帑任由他使用,真个财源滚滚而来,他每一领取银两,便辄数十万百万计,以作采购之用,其实大半数银两,却是落在他袋中。”
                                                                                                                                                                竹儿道:“这个皇帝真是窝囊,怎会任他胡乱挥霍,还自饱中囊。”
                                                                                                                                                                康定风笑道:“有道是玩物丧志,更何况皇帝老子有的是银两。再说这个朱腼,他使人在苏杭四出探查,只消探得一些士庶人家有一木一石,稍堪赏玩,便即带随官兵入内,以黄封表识,指为贡品,如值金千两之物,只付一二,倘若偶有异言,当即鞭笞交下,往往弄至中家破产,穷家卖儿卖女,直是惨无天日。”
                                                                                                                                                                四婢听得咬牙切齿,竹儿怒道:“这个朱腼如此做作,岂不和强盗无异。”
                                                                                                                                                                康定风颔首续道:“若不是这样,后来又怎会弄出大事来。清溪县有一地方叫帮源峒,那处山深林密,民物殷阜,专出产漆楮杉、樟楮木等名贵木材,那些富商巨贾,时常到此处购辨材料。再说这个方腊,也有几个漆园,而朱腼倚仗势大,往往擅取民间珍物,不名一钱,方腊屡遭损失,自然对他又怨又恨,最后忍无可忍,便煽惑百姓,作起反来,誓要诛杀朱腼。当时百姓正恨朱腼入骨,巴不得立时将他碎尸万段,现既有方腊带头举事,便一呼百应,苏杭一带的百姓,陆续群集。方腊还恐人心不固,便编成这四
