Hearing Zhao Gang's order, near the bedroom door, the official who immediately had a spirit stood up, ran out of the room, and went to look for a mirror. (The first text is published in the reading room biquge.info)

On the other side, Zhao Gang didn't want to show any flaws because he hadn't figured out the situation yet, so he didn't say much, just waited quietly - although a group of people knelt in front of him like this, which made him very uncomfortable.

Feeling that the strength in his body had recovered a little, Zhao Gang didn't want to lie down like this anymore, so he concentrated on his arms and tried to support his body.

Seeing Zhao Gang's movements, among the crowd, the old man who was the leader hurriedly got up to help him.

"It's okay, it's just that the body can't use its strength for a while, and it doesn't get in the way."

With the help of the old man, Zhao Gang finally sat up, leaned on the head of the bed, and said softly.

And the old man didn't dare to say anything, just knelt in front of Zhao Gang again.

Looking at the ancient officials in front of him, the younger ones were in their thirties, and the older ones were even gray-haired, so let them kneel like this, Zhao Gang finally couldn't bear it, and sighed: "Forget it, don't kneel, get up." ”

The old man at the head didn't dare to get up, but hesitated: "Thank you, sir, it's just ...... We are not well protected......"

"Get up first, and we'll talk about those things later."

Seeing Zhao Gang's affirmative tone, the officials finally got up, and some officials showed joy on their faces, thinking that the "Lord Zhao" in front of them no longer meant to blame, only the old man who was the leader still showed a worried look on his face.

He thinks that he knows the "Lord Zhao" in front of him very well, although he is young, he is already in a high position, he is deeply favored, he is young and vigorous, he acts unscrupulously, and he will take revenge if he has revenge, I am afraid that this matter will not be good.

And under this silent and depressing atmosphere, it didn't take long for the official who went to look for the mirror to return quickly, holding a palm-sized mercury mirror in his hand, and it was not passed by others, but just squeezed away the people in front of him, came to Zhao Gang's bed, and held the mirror in front of Zhao Gang with both hands as if flattering.

Looking at the crystal mirror handed over, a trace of hesitation flashed on Zhao Gang's face, but he finally took the mirror and placed it in front of his eyes.

Then, at last, he saw himself as he was now.

In the mirror, there is a young man about twenty-three or four, with clear eyebrows and eyes, a handsome appearance, and the appearance of a beautiful young man, but at this moment his face is pale, his expression is in a trance, and his head is wrapped in gauze, as if he has suffered a heavy blow not long ago, but it has destroyed the overall image.

But that's not the crux of the matter.

The crux of the matter is that this is not what he used to be.

This is the appearance of the owner of those memory fragments - "Zhao Junchen"!!

Zhao Gang finally knew where the memory fragments that poured into his mind came from-these memory fragments were the memories of the body itself!!

But Zhao Gang would rather not know.

He really crossed over!! It's really back to ancient times!! Really became a different person!!

Originally, Zhao Gang was still holding on to the luck mentality, thinking that the change in front of him might be a prank of a TV show, and a camera was hiding in a corner of this room, and the program planners were secretly snickering.

Although this conjecture is neither reasonable nor reasonable, Zhao Gang expects it to be so.

But unfortunately, the facts are diametrically opposed to Zhao Gang's expectations, and the appearance reflected in the mirror cannot deceive people.

At this moment, Zhao Gang wanted to rationally deduce the cause of the matter and calmly analyze the future plan, but the fact is that after discovering this qiē, although he was mentally prepared, Zhao Gang's mind still became a blank.

Seeing that Zhao Junchen didn't say a word, just looked at the crystal mirror in his hand in a daze, the surrounding officials began to worry again, thinking that something was wrong with Zhao Junchen's head after being attacked.

If that is the case, with Zhao Junchen's status in the heart of the emperor of the current dynasty, all the officials present have a bad future, and the demotion of officials to the people is only a light punishment, and it is not impossible to raid the family and behead him.

Finally, among the officials, the old man at the head hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously, "Lord Zhao, are you still unwell?" Do you want to summon a doctor for you? ”

Hearing the old man's inquiry, Zhao Gang finally recovered from the shock and helplessness, didn't want to show his flaws, forced himself to calm down, imitated the tone of Zhao Junchen in his memory, and said slowly: "No, I, um, the official is fine, but his brain is a little drowsy, and he wants to stay alone for a while, you go down first, if there is something, the official will summon you." ”

After the old man heard Zhao Gang's order, although he didn't dare to disobey it, he couldn't rest assured, hesitated a little, and said, "This...... Your Excellency has just been attacked, and no one can take care of you by your side, besides, your Excellency, as a Qincha, there are still many things that the lower officials want to ask your Excellency for instructions, and also, how to deal with those troublesome people, you also need to decide......"

"Go down!!"

Zhao Gang's mind was in turmoil at the moment, and he didn't want to entangle with them, through those memory fragments, as well as the expressions of the officials in front of him, he knew that although he was young now, he was taller and heavier than the officials in front of him, regardless of his official position or power, so he directly showed an impatient expression on his face, no longer polite, and said coldly.

Hearing Zhao Gang's cold tone, all the officials in the room were shocked, and they didn't dare to delay and entangle any longer, and after bowing and saluting, they all left quickly, although the old man led by him didn't want to leave like this, but he didn't dare to go against Zhao Gang's intentions again, so he also left with everyone.

It's just that although they were forced to leave, the officials did not dare to go far and were still waiting outside the room.

But Zhao Gang doesn't want to care about these things now.

After he was the only one left in the room, Zhao Gang suddenly smiled bitterly, sighed, and laughed at himself: "What is this?" Zhuang Sheng's dream butterfly? Past and present lives? Or is it reborn? Zhao Gang, Zhao Gang, in vain, you often boast that you are indifferent and chaotic in your daily life, but now when you encounter such a change, you have lost your square inch and are at a loss. ”

Zhao Gang was originally just an inconspicuous civil servant in the government, with no outstanding ability, but no obvious shortcomings, neither knew how to intrigue, nor was he willing to spend his mind to seek power and profit, his only hobby in life was just reading, he thought that he would live this life plainly, but he didn't expect to encounter such an incredible change.

The momentary helplessness is also conceivable.

After being silent for a long time, Zhao Gang finally calmed down the panic and uneasiness in his heart, shook his head, and said to himself again: "That's it, although I have changed my body and traveled through time and space, I have long since lost my worries, although this change is bizarre, but for me, there is no real loss." ”

Before the crossing, Zhao Gang's parents died early, and he didn't fall in love and get married, but at this time, he was more open than ordinary people, after all, he was a little less worried.

After talking to himself, Zhao Gang stopped talking, but secretly thought: "On the contrary, it is me, whether it is to be reborn or to borrow the corpse to return the soul, since I have come to this era, I can only accept my fate." The most important thing now is to find out the dynasty and environment in which he is now, and what kind of character Zhao Junchen, the original owner of this body, is, and he can't show his feet......"

"Although I received part of Zhao Junchen's memories, after all, when I received them, I was just looking at them and not going deep, and these memories were not only messy, but also incomplete, but the most profound part of Zhao Junchen's memories, most of them were just his own things and experiences, but I didn't even know which dynasty I was in now. Feudal society, strict hierarchy, in case you accidentally violate taboos and offend people who shouldn't be offended, you don't even know how to die in the future, you can't be careless. ”

Thinking of this, Zhao Gang subconsciously glanced at himself in the mirror, and couldn't help but secretly laugh at himself: "Anyway, although I have crossed over, God still treats me well, and I look much more handsome now than before...... Although it does not conform to the aesthetics of later generations. And in this era, it can be regarded as a high-ranking ...... Well, the head of the household department, the head of the internal transportation warehouse, and the official of the third grade, I don't know how this Zhao Junchen can climb to such a high position at such a young age, but I would rather nothing happen......"

After traveling to ancient times, not to mention that Zhao Gang is just a third-grade official, even if he becomes an emperor, what can he do? Whether it is material enjoyment or spiritual food, it is too far from modern.

But now Zhao Gang doesn't want to think about these frustrating things, so he just closes his eyes and carefully absorbs, sorts out, and analyzes the memory fragments left by Zhao Junchen.

Although Zhao Junchen's memory fragments are incomplete in many places, after sorting out and analyzing, many useful clues can still be found and many useful conclusions can be drawn.

I don't know how long it took, Zhao Gang slowly opened his eyes, and finally sorted out the fragments of the memories left by Zhao Junchen, many things that were not clear and unclear at the beginning, and finally had a general outline at this moment, and even according to various details, Zhao Gang also deduced the dynasty and approximate year he is in now.

However, at this moment, Zhao Gang's eyes were full of shock and helplessness.

It stands to reason that after just experiencing all kinds of incredible things such as "rebirth" and "going back to the past", there is nothing that can shock Zhao Gang.

But now, Zhao Gang was indeed shocked again.

If there is one more bizarre thing than traveling to ancient times and being reborn, it is to travel into a time and space that is completely different from the history I know well.

China is still China, China is still China, but history is different, a dynasty that should have perished is still alive today.

However, Zhao Gang was unwilling to draw conclusions lightly, and after frowning and thinking for a while, Zhao Gang suddenly raised his voice outside the door and said, "Someone is coming." ”

In just an instant, the old man at the head of the officials had already pushed the door in, obviously waiting for Zhao Gang's summons outside the door.

"My lord, what do you command?"

"Take the local government records and let the officials see them."

Zhao Gang commanded.

Zhao Gang knew that in ancient China, every prefecture, every state and every county had a prefecture, state, and county chronicle, which recorded the major events that had happened in the local area over the years, including history, geography, customs, people, culture and education, products, and even the change of parents and officials.

Among them, the name of the year, such as the third year of Zhengde, the tenth year of Kangxi, etc., can be judged to be the replacement of the throne and the dynasty.

Hearing Zhao Gang's order, although the old man was strange, he didn't dare to delay, and after a while, he had already presented the government of the place to Zhao Gang, and retreated with a wave of Zhao Gang's hand.

Between the pages, Zhao Gang knew many things, for example, he is now in Lu'an Mansion, Shanxi Province, and at this time this place is experiencing a once-in-a-century locust plague, and the victims are all over the wilderness, in addition, he also knows the identity and name of the old man led by the officials outside the house - Liu Changan, the prefect of Lu'an Mansion.

But for these, Zhao Gang didn't care, he just stared at the front of the vintage table.

Jiajing, Longqing, Wanli, Tianqi, Chongzhen...... Twenty years of Chongzhen, twenty-two years of Chongzhen...... Twenty-three years of Chongzhen!!

Zhao Gang finally proved his guess!!

He is now in the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, Zhao Gang had already guessed that the decoration style of the room he was in at this time was completely consistent with that of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and all the officials of Lu'an Mansion, including Zhao Gang himself, did not have braids on the back of their heads.

However, Chongzhen twenty-three years!!

Although Zhao Gang does not have a deep grasp of Chinese history, he also has a general understanding and knows that Emperor Chongzhen was the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty and hanged himself in a coal mountain after 16 years of reign!!

But in this time and space, Emperor Chongzhen reigned for at least twenty-three years!!

Moreover, after Emperor Chongzhen, there was another emperor, that is, the current emperor - Emperor Deqing.

"In the thirty-third year of Deqing, Lu'an Mansion suffered a 100-year locust plague, locusts spread all over the mountains, and the people had no harvest......"

This is the last page of the Lu'an Prefecture Chronicle.

In other words, it is now the thirty-third year of Deqing in the Ming Dynasty!!

This is not the Ming Dynasty that Zhao Gang is familiar with, and this Ming Dynasty is at least forty years longer than the Ming Dynasty that Zhao Gang is familiar with.

Obviously, before Emperor Chongzhen, there were still emperors such as Jiajing, Wanli, and Tianqi, and at that time, the Ming Dynasty was still the Ming Dynasty that Zhao Gang was familiar with, but Chongzhen, who was supposed to be the king of the dead country, continued the Ming Dynasty, and this time and space, history also took a turn from him.

"What is this? Parallel space? Originally, I thought that although I had crossed, but with the advantage of being familiar with history, I would seek good fortune and avoid evil, even if I couldn't get rich and wealthy in the end, but I could live a safe life, but I didn't think that I would be reborn in a completely different history, and the biggest reliance was gone......"

Thinking of this, Zhao Gang smiled bitterly, his expression full of helplessness.

How exactly did Emperor Chongzhen save the Ming Dynasty from the brink of extinction? What happened to the Jianzhou Jurchens, the future Qing Dynasty? And what kind of environment is the Ming Dynasty today?

These things, Zhao Gang can't understand from the Fu Zhi, and Zhao Junchen's memory fragments are rarely mentioned, after all, what Zhao Gang inherited is only the most profound part of Zhao Junchen's memory - and in this part of the memory, there is only himself, himself, himself, Obviously, the original Zhao Junchen is a very selfish person.

"Forget it, anyway, it's crossed, whether it's to the history that I'm familiar with, or this completely unfamiliar time and space, in fact, there is no difference, not to mention that I don't know much about the history of the Ming Dynasty, even if I understand it in detail, the history I know is also the history written by later generations, and there are Spring and Autumn brushwork everywhere, or beautify or ugly, how can it be real history? The so-called advantage of being familiar with history is nothing more than self-deception, and what gives me the most headache now is my current ......."

After sorting out and analyzing all the memories, Zhao Gang already had a general understanding of Zhao Junchen's identity and experience, which is now himself.

To put it simply, Zhao Junchen, although he is young, is a well-known and notorious person in the world...... Big corrupt officials!!

Let's put it this way, although he didn't bully men and women and oppress the people - at least he didn't come explicitly - but corruption and bribery, power and money trading, and all the things that corrupt officials would do under the rule of Ah Shang, this Zhao Junchen did it, and he did it without scruples, and everyone knew about it, and once he had evil deeds, he didn't know how to cover it up.

Therefore, when he inspected the disaster, whether he had thought about embezzling the disaster relief food funds or not, but after all, he was the one who brought hope to the victims, and he was thrown into a stone by the angry people, which shows the deep resentment of the people towards Zhao Junchen!!

Such a corrupt official, even among corrupt officials, is completely unqualified.

After understanding this fact, the wry smile on Zhao Gang's face became thicker. Although Zhao Junchen's previous actions have nothing to do with him, Zhao Gang inherited Zhao Junchen's body and memory after all, his official position and property inheritance, infamy, and the consequences of these infamy, naturally he can't escape.

I thought that after crossing over, I became an ancient official, although I was unwilling, but my luck was not bad, but I didn't expect that after crossing, the official was a big official, and the minister was a heavy minister, but he was an out-and-out corrupt official and traitorous minister, and he was also the kind of notoriety that was destined to die well!!

However, after absorbing and sorting out Zhao Junchen's memories, Zhao Gang found that although this Zhao Junchen is a big corrupt official who is scolded by tens of thousands of people, he is not a simple character - in fact, this Zhao Junchen can be in a high position at such a young age, and he has his own ability, and his experience can even be called a legend.
