Daming: Wanted to be a small landlord, but was forced to ascend the throne

Chapter 1: The Tragic Traversal

Hongzhi ninth year, rainy night.

Xingwang Mansion in Anlu Prefecture is brightly lit.

King Xing Zhu Youzhao paced up and down under the eaves of Princess Xing Guihe Garden.

"My lord, don't worry, my concubine will definitely give birth to your little son safely. You have been wandering around for two hours. You are tired. Drink some tea first. You have to take care of your body!"

The eunuch Li Ji who was waiting on him persuaded him.

Tired King Xing finally sat down and just took a sip of tea.

"It's born! It's born! The princess gave birth to a little son!"

A burst of excited shouts from inside startled King Xing directly, and with a bang, the tea was sprayed out.

Zhu Youzhu didn't have time to worry about spraying water in front of everyone, so he rushed directly to the delivery room.

"My lord, men are not allowed to enter the delivery room, it is unlucky to have blood on them!"

The eunuch Li Ji behind shouted, but he couldn't stop his prince at all.

No wonder, this is the first child that King Xing has been looking forward to for several years and finally gave birth, how can he not be excited?
In just a moment, there was a wailing sound!

"My prince! Why is my prince not breathing? How come? You idiots, kill me with a stick! Kill with a stick! Not a single one will be left!"

It was King Xing's angry voice.

That night!

The news spread that a small son was born in Xingwang's mansion but died unfortunately.

It is said that the little son stopped breathing not long after he was born, and half of his buttocks were covered with dark brown birthmarks, which were very eye-catching.

The prince Xing's mansion had been looking forward to for a few years to be born, but this ended up like this!

For nearly half a year, the entire Anlu Prefecture was shrouded in haze.

The servants and servants in Xingwang's mansion are even more trembling.

Despite his premature death, King Xing still named the eldest son: Zhu Houxi!
According to the coming-of-age ceremony, he was buried in Qingping Mountain, Shuangqiao, east of the city.

A county king who died at birth is a great event to the feudal Anlu, but to the vast history, it is like a grain of sand, fleeting.

……

Seventeen years later, in February of the seventh year of Zhengde.

Surrounded by mountains, the grass is in the sky, and when you open your mouth, white air surrounds your mouth.

Cold and wet and hungry.

Qin Shao is now surrounded by these three feelings.

The war was simple and brutal. They broke through the city of Biyang in Nanchai Prefecture more than ten days ago.

The men peeled the bark and stuck it in the stump;

Women, many rough men think about it nervously, but very few;
Some were also old and weak and some veterans who resisted in the corner. The generals and wealthy families in the city fled ahead of time.

Thieves are rampant, wars are in chaos, and anyone who has a way to escape has fled.

Biyang is the hometown of eunuch Liu Jin's henchman and academician Jiao Fang, but the old guy is not there.

The rebels hated Liu Jin to the core, and his follower, Jiao Fang, naturally became the object of their venting.

Dig his ancestral grave directly and hang his clothes and hats on the tree.

The leader Liu San raised his sword and shouted:

"I killed this old thief with my own hands to thank the world!"

Then chop it with a knife.

"Yingwu! Yingwu! Generalissimo Yingwu! Generalissimo Yingwu! Generalissimo Yingwu!"

Someone led the slogan, and the crowd below was excited.

Qin Shao's mouth also opened and closed mechanically.

He had no idea what he was talking about.

If it weren't for the reminder of a few bloody human heads not far from the feet.

He really didn't want to believe it was real.

That's right!

Qin Shao is not from here, he is from the 21st century!
It's just that he was forced to travel to the reign of Daming and Zhengde, and he was experiencing the thieves and robbers!

It's so sad!

Troubled times!What a chaotic world!
When he just woke up, he was lying on an old scooter, his body was injured.

A middle-aged woman staggered and ran with him.

Many people around dragged their families and fled with their mouths, crying and screaming.

He looked at everything in a daze, and hadn't recovered yet.

Suddenly someone shouted in the distance:

The thieves are coming!The thieves are coming!run!run!

In an instant, flying sand and gravel were instantly raised.

A large group of people on horseback rushed forward.

There were louder cries, shouts, and shouts.

Qin Shao and the woman were quickly dispersed in the crowd.

He was very anxious, wandering in the crowd looking for and calling for his aunt.

There were too many people, and his voice was quickly drowned out.

He could only look helplessly at the people fleeing in all directions, not knowing where he should go.

The woman was very kind to him, saying it was his aunt, and his mother had passed away two years ago.

It was just the two of them, and he happened to be injured and ill.

Now his aunt is going to take him to Anlu Prefecture to join his father.

I heard it's relatively safe there.

Now that he didn't see his aunt, Qin Shao staggered out of the car and wanted to run, but was quickly caught by two men on horseback.

Qin Shao thought he was going to die!
Those people didn't kill him, they just sent him to death camp, which was no different from killing him.

The so-called death camps were actually used by those thieves to drive away the siege or to block the officers and soldiers who were chasing after them.

Commonly known as the human flesh camp.

Fortunately, after Qin Shao joined, the first city he attacked was Biyang City, which was almost empty.

After entering the city, the brigade of rebels frantically grabbed things, and the scene was chaotic.

Qin Shao was also driven in and rushed in. He snatched half a bag of food and five pancakes.

He also touched five taels of silver on a dead man.

Qin Shao numbly followed the team.

His previous wound scabbed and festered, festered and scabbed again, and healed over and over again.

After walking for about seven days, they stopped at a col for rest.

"Boy, give me some hot water from your pot, old man, I haven't had hot water for several months, this... my stomach feels tight!"

A trembling old voice sounded behind Qin Shao.

It was the skinny old man. Qin Shao noticed this old man the first day he was kidnapped and joined the team.

He is too thin!The kind of dry and thin with bulging veins, when walking, it looks like a compass with thin legs.

Qin Shao was very worried, he staggered and fell to the ground, unable to afford it.

When he attacked the city for the first time, he doubted whether this person would survive.

It's not about being chased by officers and soldiers, but about being trampled to death by the crowd.

That is, during the march every day, people in the team died from time to time.

Dead people seem to be a very common thing. When they die, they are thrown directly into the valley beside them, which is no different from throwing away a dead dog.

Everyone's face is numb, and Qin Shao is the same now.

Unexpectedly, after a fight, the old man was still alive!
People's perseverance is sometimes beyond imagination.

Human life is cheap, but it is often stronger at this time.

During the robbery this time, Qin Shao also snatched a small casserole with a lid, which was very delicate.

Enough of drinking all kinds of cold water and river water, he wants to boil some hot water, even though he doesn't know how long he can live, but he just doesn't want to feel wronged.

Along the way, he saw with his own eyes many people who drank unclean water, had diarrhea, fell down and did not get up.

These days, a little illness can kill someone!
Although he didn't have enough to eat during the journey, he could still drink some hot water to keep him alive.

He took the cracked pottery bowl handed over by the old man and poured him some hot water.

"Old man, where are we now?"
