Chapter 6 The Golden Age
When everyone left the family temple, Aunt Jiu narrowed her cloudy eyes, looked at Su Ze and said:

"I know you're not a pirate."

Su Ze quickly raised his head, looked at Jiu Auntie's old face and said:

"I'm really not a pirate! Let me go!"

Ninth Aunt sat down slowly, looked at Su Ze and said:

"Although I don't know what method you used, if you calculate correctly, there will be heavy rain today, and if you calculate correctly, hundreds of households will return today, but this old man doesn't believe that you are a child under Mazu's throne."

"The old man once learned physiognomy. You have a strange face. At first glance, it is just Zhongping's fate, but there are secrets hidden. It's really weird."

Su Ze looked at the old Miao Zhu in surprise, could it be that she really met each other?Do you know that you have traveled through time?

Ninth Aunt continued:
"Your origin is unknown, where can you go without Changning Guard?"

Su Ze also had some toothaches. The Ming Dynasty was very strict about household registration.

You need to issue a certificate when you leave your place of residence, and you have to report to the government first when you arrive in a new place. Even businessmen have a set of strict management methods.

Without an ID card, let alone being unable to enter the city, even if you are in the countryside, you will be arrested by the villagers and taken to the government.

Now that Japanese pirates are making trouble again, with his short hair so eye-catching, I am afraid that he will be arrested again as soon as he leaves Changning Guard.

Aunt Jiu looked at Su Ze and said:

"The old man will show you the way, and you will settle down in Changningwei."

Su Ze was stunned for a moment, the words of the nine aunts seemed to be a good choice.

Now that the guards in Daming are exhausted, and even hundreds of households in the guards can let women do it, it seems that it is not difficult to get an identity in the guards and live in it.

However, Su Ze, who studies Ming history, knows that if he really enters the military status of the guard, he will never be freed forever.

According to the ancestral law established by Emperor Hongwu, once it is classified as a military household, generations of descendants must join the army.

For example, once Su Ze is classified as a military household, he will serve as a soldier in the army for the rest of his life. If Su Ze dies in battle or is too old to fight, one of his descendants will be selected to take his place.

If Su Ze has no descendants, then the descendants of his same clan will assume the responsibilities of military households.

It was not easy to travel to this era. The 33rd year of Jiajing was 1554 AD. By the time Li Zicheng entered the capital in 1644, there were still nearly a hundred years left in Ming Dynasty.

Although the golden finger of "Hundred Scenes" can't help Su Ze practice martial arts and immortality, life skills include skills such as "reading", and you can also participate in the imperial examination to obtain fame in the game.

With this golden finger, as long as one obtains a normal status, wouldn't one have a bright future in the Jinshi examination?

If you become a member of the military, won't you never have a chance to stand up?
Aunt Jiu saw Su Ze's doubts, and she said in a muddy voice:
"Looking at your conversation, you seem to be a scholar?"

Aunt Jiu saw that Su Ze didn't answer, and said with a smile: "Our Changning Wei used to have Wei Xue. If you want to study for the imperial examination, as long as the Wei Xue is re-run, you can take the imperial examination through Wei Xue."

Hygiene?Only then did Su Ze remember that it is now the 33rd year of Jiajing, which is already in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.

In this era, the imperial government's restrictions on military households are not as rigid as before. Guards can run guard schools, and children of guards can also sign up for imperial examinations through guard schools.

The most famous Zhang Juzheng Zhang Shentong in the Ming Dynasty was a child of a military household in Jingzhou Wei, Huguang. He participated in the imperial examination high school through Wei Xue.

Speaking of this time, Zhang Juzheng should have just been a Jinshi for a few years, and this year he left the court due to illness and returned to his hometown Jiangling.

Su Ze's thoughts can't help but diverge. In this era, the Taoist emperor sits high in the temple, and Yan Song and Xu Jie are fighting hard.

Gao Gong also gave lectures at Yuwang's mansion, and Zhang Juzheng traveled to the mountains and rivers in his hometown due to illness.

Extending the scale of time and space wider, the Xinxue founded by Chen Xianzhang and Wang Shouren is changing the academics of Ming Dynasty, and has a profound impact on this land in the future.

Martin Luther's religious reformation is still going on, and European Enlightenment is already in its infancy, which will affect the whole world for hundreds of years.

The Ottoman Empire, the Habsburg Dynasty, and the Kingdom of France are vying for hegemony on the continent.

The newly emerging pirate power England and the old maritime overlords Portugal and Spain compete for the crown of the sea.

The construction of the Mayflower has not yet begun, and the American continent is still a blank fertile land.

What era is this?Isn't this the golden age that Su Ze longed for before time travel?

This is not just an age of opportunity for individuals, but a golden age for entire nations and nations!

Su Ze, who was originally a firm materialist view of history, was suddenly given the upper hand by a heroic view of history.

Could it be that God let me come to this era just to change this era?

Let the land of China, which has sunk hundreds of years later, bring the Chinese nation to a glorious peak in this golden age when all ethnic groups in the world are thriving and striving to stand on the top of the world's nations?

"Young man, come back to your senses!"

Ninth Aunt's hoarse voice rang in her ears, and finally brought Su Ze back to reality.

Hey, you have to eat food one bite at a time, and you have to walk step by step on the road.

Now that I am an unidentified black household, let alone taking part in the imperial examination, it would be nice not to have my head chopped off as a leader of Japanese pirates.

Su Ze calmed down, looked into Aunt Jiu's eyes and said:

"Why me? Aren't you afraid that I'm really the work of Japanese pirates?"

Aunt Jiu looked into Su Ze's eyes and said:
"The old man believes in his own eyes."

Ninth Aunt stood up leaning on her crutches. She lit three sticks of inferior sandalwood and put them in the incense burner of the Third Mistress, and then bowed reverently.

"Changningwei has been in decline since it was a hundred households. Not only has the health school been abandoned, but now this family temple has no one to take over."

"I'm already old, and Chang Ningwei can't live without Miao Zhu."

Su Ze studied the history of the Ming Dynasty, so he naturally knew that temple blessing was a very important position for a guard.

No matter what era or region it is, going to sea is a very risky thing, and seeking life at sea requires faith.

Luck itself is an illusory thing. Every time you go to sea, you are fighting for your life. Without faith, ordinary people can easily collapse.

The family temple of Changning Guard is the sustenance of the guard's beliefs.

Whether it is prayer or fortune-telling, the essence is to calm people's hearts and give desperate sailors in the storm at sea a confidence to go home.

This is also the reason why Aunt Jiu can have such a high status in Changningwei.

"Your Changning Guard wants an outsider to be a temple blessing?"

Ninth Aunt sighed and said: "I didn't want it originally. My apprentice died in the sea with the old family. I'm afraid that this old body will die soon. Since you know how to interpret hexagrams, it shouldn't be difficult to make a temple wish."

Nine aunts looked at Su Ze and said: "I know you are not someone in the pool, and I will try my best to bring an apprentice out during this time. In case something happens to me, you just need to temporarily replace my apprentice to inherit the family temple." ,how?"

Su Ze looked at Ninth Aunt's cloudy eyes, and finally nodded and said, "It's a deal!"
