Next chapter

Tang Dou remembers that he once heard a song, the lyrics of which were probably like this: There was an ancient Chinese emperor who was too great and great, he was invincible, he was invincible, he had great ambitions, he went on expeditions, and he had the largest country in the world......

When he was a child, Tang Dou was extremely proud and infinitely proud that China had such a glorious dynasty and such a great emperor.

He is the founding emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, and he is only a catty? Temujin, Yuan Taizu Genghis Khan.

But now, in addition to hatred, Tang Dou has a lingering shame in his chest.

The Yuan Dynasty was a dynasty in Chinese history, but the Yuan Dynasty was a shame that the Han people were invaded and ruled by foreign tribes and succumbed to the iron hooves of Mongolia.

The Han Chinese, known as untouchables by the Mongols, are as cheap as pigs and dogs, and are not even allowed to have a name, only a date of birth or a number.

Take Zhu Yuanzhang as an example, Zhu Yuanzhang's ancestral name is Zhu Zhongba, and he has three sons: the eldest son Zhu Liuer, the second son Zhu Twelve, and the third son Zhu Bailiu, Zhu Bailiu is Zhu Yuanzhang's ancestor. Zhu Bailiu has two sons, the eldest son Zhu Siwu and the second son Zhu Sijiu, Zhu Sijiu is Zhu Yuanzhang's great-grandfather. Zhu Sijiu gave birth to four sons, named Zhu Chuyi, Zhu Chuer, Zhu Chusan, and Zhu Chuten, Zhu Chuyi was Zhu Yuanzhang's grandfather. Zhu Chuyi has two sons, named Zhu Wuyi and Zhu Wusi, and Zhu Wusi is Zhu Yuanzhang's father. Zhu Wuyi's sons are called Zhu Chongyi, Zhu Chong2, Zhu Chong3, and Zhu Chong5, and Zhu Wusi's sons are called Zhu Chong4, Zhu Chong6, Zhu Chong7, and Zhu Chong8.

Zhu Chongba was later Zhu Yuanzhang.

From this, we can see what kind of shocking extent the Yuan government's oppression of the Han people has reached.

The Yuan government had strict regulations prohibiting Han people from hunting, learning boxing martial arts, prohibiting Han people from possessing weapons, prohibiting Han people from gathering to worship gods, prohibiting Han people from rushing to the market to buy, and prohibiting Han people from walking at night......

In the eyes of the Mongols, the Han people are pigs, and the Han people are dogs, and even pigs and dogs are inferior.

Tang Dou is in Haozhou Zhongli in the spring of the fourth year of Yuan Zhizheng at the moment. That is, the modern Fengyang area of Anhui Province, where Zhu Yuanzhang was born.

According to historical records, there was a drought in Haozhou in the third year of Zhizheng, and a locust plague and plague occurred in the spring of the fourth year of Zhizheng. Zhu Yuanzhang's parents and eldest brother died in this plague, and only Zhu Yuanzhang and his second brother Zhu Chongliu were left in the Zhu family.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was the most destitute, Tang Dou chose to contact Zhu Yuanzhang at this time, just because he had a mind to send charcoal in the snow, but he never thought of it. As soon as he set foot on this land, he saw starvation and mourning, and he saw the Han people enslaved by the Mongols without covering their clothes, wearing their hair and feet, and the anger in his chest was ignited.

Tang Dou was wearing Han clothes, but he was brightly dressed, obviously different from those Han people who did not cover their bodies, and also won the suspicious eyes of several Mongolian people, but these Mongolian people did not mean to provoke Tang Dou.

Tang Dou stretched out his hand to stop an old man who was walking by with a broken wheelbarrow bent over his waist. Hugging his fists and asking, "Uncle, do you know how Zhu Wusi's family goes?" ”

Tang Dou knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was only seventeen years old now, and he was afraid that no one would know if he inquired about him directly, so he could only ask Zhu Yuanzhang's father.

The old man was startled by Tang Dou's blockade, and when he saw Tang Dou dressed brightly, he hurriedly put down the wheelbarrow in his hand and crawled on the ground, and asked honestly: "This lord, I don't know what you want to tell the villain." ”

The wheelbarrow was lowered to the ground, and a wizened, vine-like arm slipped out of the straw mat of the wheelbarrow, dangling limply from the side of the wheelbarrow.

Witness this qiē. Tang Dou subconsciously took a step back, and looked apologetically at the withered face of the old man who was scared to the ground, guessing that this old man was probably a new family mourner, no wonder he was distracted.

Tang Dou stepped forward and hugged the old man with both hands. Said apologetically: "I'm sorry uncle, I didn't know that your family was in misfortune, please mourn." ”

Tang Dou's actions startled the old man, he had lived for such an age, and he had never been dressed as Tang Dou and said to him so politely.

The old man took two steps back to avoid Tang Dou's support, and asked without daring to raise his waist with his waist hunched, "Master." If you have nothing to do with the old man, the old man will retire. ”

Tang Dou sighed and made way.

The old man hurriedly grabbed the handlebars of the wheelbarrow, and pushed the cart up without daring to raise his head.

Tang Dou looked at the old man, his gaze couldn't help but fall down the straw mat and then to the hanging arm, sighed, and was about to withdraw his gaze, but he saw the index finger of the thin palm hooked.

Tang Dou's heart jumped, thinking that he was dazzled, and hurriedly stared at the palm, but saw that the palm did not react anymore.

Tang Dou was afraid that what he saw was true, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to greet the old man who had already walked a few steps: "Uncle, please stay." ”

The old man was shouted by Tang Dou again, hurriedly put down the wheelbarrow again, and turned to Tang Dou: "I don't know what else the master has to order." ”

Tang Dou walked in front of the old man, withdrew his eyes from the palm of his hand, looked at the cautious old man in front of him and asked, "Who is the person in this car, and where are you going to send him?" ”

The old man bowed his head respectfully and replied: "If you go back to the old man, the car is the granddaughter of the old man, and the old man is going to drag her to the mass grave and bury her." ”

Tang Dou frowned, and looked at the drooping palm again.

It is the right way for people to die in the ground, but he saw that finger move just now, if the living person is buried like this, Tang Dou feels that since he has seen it, psychologically he will not be able to get over it no matter what.

Tang Dou looked at the old man and asked, "Uncle, at the beginning of the lower period, can you let the granddaughter of the lower order take the pulse?" ”

Tang Dou doesn't know any medical skills, but he can do his best to check if he still has a pulse.

The old man didn't know how to answer Tang Dou, and Tang Dou was no longer polite when he saw this, and walked over and reached out to grab the arm hanging down from the wheelbarrow.

The thin arm was as light as skin and bone, Tang Dou couldn't help frowning, and two fingers found the pulse on the arm.

Tang Dou frowned, touched his pulse for a moment, stood up, and suddenly lifted the straw mat on the wheelbarrow.

On the wheelbarrow was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, whose face was as dry and thin as her arms, but the girl's clear eyes were wide open, and there were two crystal tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, and at the moment when the straw mat was opened, the girl's two tears finally slipped down her cheeks.

Tang Dou was furious, he threw away the straw mat in his hand, and roared at the old man: "Old dog, your granddaughter is still alive, why are you so cruel to bury her alive." ”

The old man knelt on the ground with a thud, and burst into tears: "Master, how can she survive after she is so hungry, and the old man buried her to give her relief." ”

"Hungry? You mean, she's hungry? Tang Dou's eyes were bigger than a duck's egg, growing so big, Tang Dou's impression of being hungry was that he was playing crazy outside and ran home to pester his mother and shouted: "Mom, I'm dying of hunger." ”

But Tang Dou never thought that people could really be starved to death, and the death was still so miserable......

Could it be that the food recorded in the history books is also true? (To be continued.) )
