The city is called Jiangning, which is later Nanjing, a huge city, you can't find a little familiar modern style, all kinds of wood and stone buildings in the city, the costumes of pedestrians on the streets and the carriages on the road, as well as the original ecological mountains and lakes inside and outside the city and the blue sky and fresh air, all tell Cao Yi that he has indeed traveled from modern times to today's Great Yan Dynasty.

The unfamiliar world, the completely unfamiliar city, the incomprehensible social outlook and values, all of a sudden, made Cao Yi feel that his life had lost his purpose, no matter what he did, Cao Yi had a feeling of being out of place with this world, Cao Yi fell into the confusion of life when he was fourteen years old.

Is it to be a group of gentlemen who eat and wait to die every day to eat, drink and have fun, go to the Qinglou, and fight and make trouble? Or do you use your unique big-picture vision and forward-looking insight from the future to create a royal hegemony?

In the previous life, he was just a hard-working copywriter with no background and no platform, with the unique hypocrisy and feelings of literary youth, but often sometimes because he did not have the corresponding ability and resources, he complained about God's injustice.

In a word, human beings are generally good at sexual immorality, especially for Cao Yi, useless is a scholar is a true portrayal of his previous life.

What about this life? Travel around, take a good look at the magnificent rivers and mountains of this world, hold the duty of an outsider, and spend this life leisurely with the mentality of tourists and vacations?

Or don't live up to God's chance to give yourself another chance, in this life, with the knowledge and concepts beyond this era, break out of a thousand years of hegemony that has been famous through the ages, people have left a voice, geese have left a name, and always have to prove that they have not come to this world in vain.

Cao Yi, who didn't figure it out for the time being, looked at anything and people he could see with a cold sideline mentality. shuttles through the city of Jiangning every day, watching the short life of the market vendors; You can also watch the blacksmith strike iron all day; Or run to Qixia Temple to watch how all living beings pray to the Buddha, and watch how the monks spend every day in the morning and dusk; Squatting in the fields and countryside outside Jiangning City, watching how the farmers cultivate the land; Sitting under the tree and watching the boatmen at the Jiangning Wharf beg for a living; Across the riverbank, listen to the warblers, swallows, swallows and silk bamboo orchestras on the painting boat of the Qinhuai River......

For more than half a year, the famous families in Jiangning Mansion know that the eighth son of the Cao family is a strange person who is different from ordinary people, of course, this is still a more euphemistic statement, and it may be called "Cao family's stupid son", "tiger father's stupid son", "Cao dumb eight" and so on.

Especially when Cao Yi passed by the children's private school, standing outside the school and watching the little babies who were only four or five years old shaking their heads and reading there, they smirked and watched for two hours. But it is precisely because of the current things that people feel sparse and ordinary that the sons of the Cao family can watch with relish, what is this not a fool? All of a sudden, most of the celebrity families in Jiangning Mansion knew that the Cao family had such a superb child......

Cao Yi didn't know that his behavior in the past year had made him and the Cao family the laughing stock of the entire Jiangning wealthy family, the maids and servants didn't dare to talk about it, and his biological mother, Mrs. Gao, loved Cao Yi more and more after he got sick, and Cao Yi promised everything he did, let alone say anything about his son's misbehavior. Therefore, Cao Yi has become more and more solid in the title of "Cao family's stupid son".

For Cao Yi, a problem that plagued him in the direction of Dayan's life was figured out in the past nearly a year, Cao Yi suddenly woke up to the fact that since he had come to this world and couldn't find a way to go back, why not integrate himself into this world and follow his heart.

Being carefree every day is a way of living, being strict with oneself and becoming famous is also a way of living, and no one is qualified to comment on which life is more meaningful before the coffin is completely closed. Only you know what kind of life you want.

After thinking about everything, Cao Yi wanted to completely integrate into this world, and wanted to know more about it, as well as the previous history and the current situation, so he had the first time Cao Yi spoke after recovering from a serious illness.

"I ...... I think...... It depends on ...... Books of all kinds"

What followed was Mrs. Gao's happy promise, and the Cao Mansion itself only had Mrs. Gao and Cao Yi two masters in Jiangning to live for a long time, but the house was very large, divided into five courtyards, just the backyard, is three in and three out covering an area of dozens of acres, and the backyard was divided into several small yards, each yard was divided into the main house, the left and right wings, as well as dozens of large and small houses such as hugging the building, partial houses, as well as large and small gardens, water pavilions, ponds, curved bridges, and pavilions.

The courtyard where Cao Yi lives is called Qingyun Pavilion, in addition to Cao Yi, there are more than a dozen other people, including Cao Bin's personal guard Liu Baiqing and several other guards who stayed behind to protect his son, and then the big girl Red Sleeves and some other rough maids, little maids and old mothers.

In addition to the main house, the east wing on the left is used as Cao Yi's study, which is filled with the "subset of classics and history" purchased by Mrs. Gao with a lot of money, and various Confucian scriptures; historical documents, geographical charts; Hundreds of works of the princes; Poetry and rhetoric have everything.

Since he had a house full of books, Cao Yi's life has been extremely regular, and he does what he does at what time of day every day. He laid out a detailed plan and arranged it strictly according to the plan. At the beginning, both Red Sleeves and Liu Baiqing were extremely shocked, and even Mrs. Gao rushed to Haosheng to inquire about her son when she heard the news, thinking that Cao Yi was starting to get sick again.

But after three or four months, the entire Cao Mansion has adapted to Cao Yi's life rules:

In the morning, I ran unbeatably, and then I learned martial arts with Liu Baiqing for an hour. After bathing and changing clothes, then have breakfast, followed by a whole day of reading, and after Mrs. Gao finished dinner, he practiced calligraphy for an hour, and then continued to practice martial arts with Liu Baiqing. If the weather is fine, he and Liu Baiqing go to practice riding and archery outside Jiangning City every few days.

In order to facilitate the morning exercise and martial arts practice, Cao Yi even bulldozed and rebuilt the large garden of Qingyun Pavilion, and made a circular trail throughout the venue, Cao Yi named it a fitness track, and the middle was a martial arts training ground for martial arts, surrounded by all kinds of weapons and facilities for fighting strength.

Liu Baiqing also asked Yi Gongzi in private, today's Shengshang emphasizes literature and suppresses martial arts, and greatly promotes the imperial examination, plus the family is a family of Jiangmen, at present, only the sixth prince is studying for the imperial examination, and the other seven sons are all practicing martial arts, why do you have to practice martial arts, the implication is naturally that there are already so many people in the family practicing martial arts, eight princes, even if you practice martial arts, you can't establish too much merit, it is better to study literature hard, be a civil servant, maybe there is a greater opportunity.

Although Cao Yi could understand, he just laughed it off and replied, "It's useless to be a scholar, and it's always good to learn more skills." ”

I can't tell him clearly, Son, I had the chivalrous dream of "killing one person in ten steps, not staying for a thousand miles, brushing off my clothes, and hiding my body and name" in my last life, but in the end, I came to this world because I didn't have martial arts, and I ended up being kidnapped and died, right? Besides, no scholar is angry, not all have the idea of a drunk beauty kneeling and waking up to the power of the world.

Through the records of history books and history for more than half a year, Cao Yi discovered more places that are different from the history before he crossed over. For example, the Tang Dynasty did not have Empress Wu Zetian ascending the throne, and there is no historical record of the love story between Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei. Similarly, in terms of literature, there are more celebrities and poems that circulate, but there are also less, for example, there is no Zhang Ruoxu, the character and the poem "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", and there are no mysterious poems in history.

Cao Yi doesn't know what kind of situation this world is, multiple planes? Or parallel universes?

However, the only thing that can be judged is that the Great Yan Dynasty and the Song Dynasty are extremely similar, and no other differences have been found except for individual differences such as the history of the first dynasty and the emperor's year name. Thinking about it this way, Cao Yi's mind relaxed a little, and the history he knew well could always take a certain lead in the subsequent development, so that the situation would not change suddenly or the situation would be completely uncontrollable.
