Chapter 2 Volume A: Qi Lu Qing is not over yet, here I come

 The rapid sound of horse hooves woke up the boy who was leaning on the carriage seat from his thoughts. He looked around in a daze, but nothing happened as expected.

 In fact, it may not be a good thing to actually go back on your own.

He is very aware of his body. His blood lipids and blood pressure are frighteningly high. If he really lays down, he probably won't be able to wake up.

Even if he woke up, it would be too difficult, and if he had to stay in that hospital bed for ten or twenty years, he would rather stumble forward in this unknown world.

 He sighed softly and looked at the thin green shirt he was wearing. The jade belt tied around his waist was a little loose, which made him feel uncomfortable. When did his three-foot-five waist become like this?

Although he has always longed to lose weight, the current situation is really hard to be happy about.

 That's right, time travel, time travel is so vulgar, he doesn't know how he became like this.

Feng Keng, the son of Shenwu General Feng Tang, also named Ziying, Feng Ziying, what the **** is this?

Well, he didn’t know if he was the Feng Ziying in the Zhi Pihui edition of “A Dream of Red Mansions” that he was reading before he passed out. But wasn’t the Feng Ziying in that book handsome and energetic, known as the Four Heroes of the Red Mansions, and was already weak?

Looking at my hands, they look like those of a child around eleven or twelve years old. They just have a little more strength and thick calluses that are gradually fading away.

 There is also the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Great Zhou Dynasty.

God knows how this Great Zhou Dynasty came into existence, but it actually existed. Didn’t the Eastern and Western Zhou Dynasties last two thousand years?

In the past few days, Feng Ziying has read the official history. This Great Zhou is not that Great Zhou, but the Zhang family's Great Zhou.

In the seventh year of Zhengde in the Ming Dynasty, Liu Chong and Liu Chen of Mahu in Beizhili revolted, sweeping across Beizhili, Shandong, and Henan. In the same year, Ge Xian, the jailed leader of the Suzhou machine workers, escaped from prison and led the Suzhou Jihu weavers to revolt, sweeping across the south of the Yangtze River. .

In May of the same year, Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao raised the banner of rebellion in Nanchang. At this time, the power of the military **** Wang Yangming was no longer shrouded, and Jiangxi fell.

In August, Zhang Dingkui, the seventh-generation grandson of Zhang Shicheng, one of the heroes at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the founder of the Great Zhou Dynasty, raised his troops from Suzhou and raised the banner of the Great Zhou Dynasty again. The entire Ming Dynasty finally entered an unexpected end due to Emperor Zhengde's debauchery. Gone in the game.

At the beginning of the ninth year of Zhengde, Zhang Dingkui captured Jinling and declared the official capital of Jinling. The country was named Da Zhou. He immediately launched the Northern Expedition and swept through the Central Plains. Finally, he completed the dynastic change and established the Da Zhou Dynasty.

So history changed for no reason, so Feng Ziying came to this land of Shandong in the second year of Yonglong of the Zhou Dynasty for no reason.

Feng Ziying doesn’t remember exactly what era the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty was when converted into the Western Yuan Dynasty, but he probably remembers that it was the early 16th century, and the Zhou Dynasty had been established for nearly a hundred years, and there had been three or four emperors.

 In other words, it should be the beginning of the seventeenth century, and it should be between 1600 and 1610. The specific date needs to be found by people from the West to know.

I just don’t know whether the Ming Dynasty fell, and whether the newly rising Zhou Dynasty changed history, whether Matteo Ricci and Luo Mingjian came to China, and whether Macau was occupied by the Portuguese?

All this is because he came to this time and space for too short a time, and the lack of information made him ignorant of all this.

Feng Ziying is not an engineering dog, but a liberal arts man. He is not a history major, but he has some connections with history. He majored in political education in the normal school and has some understanding of history, so he has a rough understanding of the history of the late 16th century and the early 17th century. impression.

Fortunately, thanks to the Ming history craze set off by "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", "The Sixteenth Year of Wanli" and "Da Ming 1566", in order to avoid falling behind in finding topics for dinner with his colleagues, he also pretended to be fake. So I went to read "History of the Ming Dynasty".

The problem is that it is just a quick glance at something, and it is basically just a matter of swallowing it whole. Fortunately, my memory is not bad.

 The problem is that now the Ming Dynasty has ended, the Wanli Dynasty is gone, and the Nine Thousand Years Old and Carpenter Emperors will probably not appear either.

Zhang Juzheng, who is said to be a prime minister for eternity, has lost the stage of the Ming Dynasty, and he is probably out of business. Even if there is a play, it is probably not a big play, and it has ended long ago in terms of time.

 What about the Battle of Renchen? What about Toyotomi Hideyoshi and that old turtle Tokugawa?

 Feng Ziying’s thoughts seem to be spinning. Where is Li Chengliang? Where are the Jianzhou Jurchen’s seven greatest hatreds?

 Do these histories still exist?

Feng Ziying is really curious about what this deflected world will look like, but based on his trembling observations over the past month, I am afraid that the situation in the Zhou Dynasty is really not good, at least from the bits and pieces in rural towns. You can spot a leopard with just a drop of water.

“Brother Keng, we are about to arrive at the pier.” Feng You’s voice came from in front of the car, “Brother Qing and Brother Bao are all waiting.”

"Uncle You, why are you waiting for me? Do you still expect me to shake off a little before I leave?" Feng Ziying sat up straight, stretched out her hand to push aside the curtain, her voice was a little hoarse, "I don't need them, no matter how bad the world is, I can go to Beijing from here. It’s just a few days, what else can you do?”

 Feng You is his father's personal attendant, and this time he is escorting him back to his hometown.

"Brother Keng, you might as well take them with you. I heard that people from Beijing set up a government office next to the pier, right next to the banknote. They paid a commercial tax and also had to pay miscellaneous taxes. It's awesome. There's a lot of commotion everywhere. , there might be trouble."

Feng You had a hideous scar on his left cheek on his dark face.

Feng Ziying knew that this was an arrow wound. It was injured in the battle with the Tatar cavalry in Datong Town. Fortunately, it was a few points off. But even so, the left half of Feng You's face was probably injured, and his expression was a bit unnatural. It looks a bit vicious.

"Oh? How long have you been here? Has the palace arranged for someone to come?"

Feng Ziying has been staying in his old house for the past few days. He started to have a fever from the moment he got off the ship. The fever made him dizzy and frightened Feng You who escorted him to his hometown and the boy servant who came with him. He finally got over it. In the past few days, I have recovered.

It’s just that Feng Ziying is already a second-generation person, Feng Ziying mixed with the soul of her previous life.

Feng Ziying's generation in the Feng family in Beijing is the only one left. The eldest master and the second master both died fighting in the north a few years ago, leaving only the third master.

If an important elder in the family had not passed away and he was arranged by his father to return to his hometown to express his condolences on his father's behalf, the Feng family would never allow this single seedling to return to his hometown.

"I heard that I have been here for half a year, and I am a companion in the palace." Feng You said with a calm expression, "In the past few days, when I go out, I feel a little dry on the street. I feel that something is going to happen, so let's leave early. It’s a good thing.”

From Yongqing Street, where the Feng family is located, you have to bypass two side streets to reach the main road to the dock. Such roads paved with plaster and stones can only be found on the road to the dock. Smooth and stable.

From time to time on the road, you can see sullen vendors and businessmen cursing in low voices. There are also a few groups of people standing under the willow forest, gesticulating and arguing under the scorching sun.

 Feng Ziying raised her hand to cover her forehead and looked ahead.

The sun was so dazzling that it made it difficult to open one's eyes. For just a short while, Feng Ziying felt a sting on her face.

 After waking up from the coma, Feng Ziying quickly accepted the reality.

To be honest, he even felt lucky that at least he would not have to stay in a hospital bed for the rest of his life.

In this world, at least there is no problem with freedom of life, and it seems that the family background is not bad, uh, a second-generation official, although it seems that military attachés in this era are not so popular.

 So he actively began to integrate into the world as soon as his body recovered and was able to move.

 To integrate into this world, the first step is to understand and become familiar with it, because based on what he learned from official history, the world has been deflected.

This is not brought about by the butterfly myself. It is estimated that it is one of the countless similar planes that will come back to history.

 This is his understanding, but after all, the time point when the deflection occurred was decades ago, so there are still many things that have not changed much.

 Many things in the history books of previous lives have basically been preserved here, such as language, customs and habits, etc. In other words, the world is still roughly this world.

Linqing City was built as a brick city during the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty. The Prefecture Office, Military Preparation and Road Office, Health Office, Xuexia Office, Ducha Yuan Office Tower, and the Chief Secretary Branch Office Tower were all located in the brick city.

During the Hongzhi period of the previous Ming Dynasty, as water transportation became more prosperous, merchants and refugees flocked to the area, and the ground in Brick City became increasingly crowded. Soon, business travelers traveling from south to north were on the Zhongzhou boundary between Brick City and the canal, relying on The area around Brick City began to grow, and Linqing Market was quickly formed, which was several times the size of Brick City.

 During the Zhengde period of the former Ming Dynasty, the Liuliu, Liuqi and Horse Rebellions occurred in Shandong. In order to protect the increasingly prosperous streets in Linqing, an earthen city was built outside the Brick City and integrated with the Brick City.

After the founding of the Zhou dynasty, Emperor Gaozong of the Zhou Dynasty and Emperor Guangyuan ascended the throne and immediately followed the example of Chengzu of the previous Ming Dynasty in moving the capital to Beijing and designated Jinling as the southern capital.

As a result, Linqing City became a key place for the transportation of grain and water from the south to the north, and together with Jining and Dezhou, it became the three major transshipment locations in Shandong.

 And the three first-class Shuicicang - Guangjicang, Linqingcang and Changyingcang are stretching for several miles. Together with the establishment of Chaoguan, Linqing City has become the first-class city in Shandong.
