(Update one chapter today, starting tomorrow, at least two chapters of 4,000 words a day, if you have time, three chapters of 6,000 words a day.) )

Lian Zining's home, in the pine alley in Zhengyangmen, the door is not big, but it is very warm, thinking of this, Lian Zining couldn't help but smile bitterly.

inherited this body, and naturally inherited all the social relations and responsibilities that Lian Zining needed to bear - in that family, there was still a person who didn't want to face it, didn't dare to face it, and didn't know how to face it!

Thinking of this, Lian Zining was in a trance, it was getting late, and when he looked up, he saw that he had already walked to the door of the house.

Even the small door of the family, in this pine alley is really quite inconspicuous, since the Yongle Emperor moved the capital to Yanjing City, this pine alley is divided into the territory of the military households, the whole alley, including the surrounding area, live in either the Jinyi guard or the military household of the avant-garde standard-bearer of the government army, are all officers and military families. The military households at the feet of the Son of Heaven are not as bitter as those below, they are most favored by the Son of Heaven, and they are also very well-connected. If it is an organic fate, it is possible to be favored by Shangguan and pass on this son to his descendants.

In the thirtieth year of Zhengde, the emperor ordered the abolition of the military household system and changed the military household system to the conscription system. By the time of Emperor Zhengde, the military household system had almost been eroded, and the land of the local guard had been encroached upon by the officers, and the local military households had become the tenants of the officers, and they couldn't even eat, and their wives and daughters had to go to be secret prostitutes to survive, and they were not as good as the tenant farmers of those big families. Moreover, with the restrictions of the military household system, as long as you are a military member, you cannot participate in the imperial examination and other promotion paths, which is equivalent to fixing the military households there for life and life, and they will not be able to get rid of it for hundreds of years, but now that they have taken off their military status, they can do more, at least they can live.

But for these military households at the feet of the Son of Heaven, it is equivalent to cutting off their way of life - originally the sons in the family inherited their father's business and were civil servants for generations, but now that the emperor has given an order, in the future, this civil servant will have to take the test yourself.

Think about it, how big is the psychological gap?

However, as the saying goes, there are policies and countermeasures, and the military households of the 24 guards in Yanjing City, after more than 100 years of development, have formed an extremely large relationship network, with close contacts with each other, and they also know a lot of dignitaries. As a result, these families have resorted to their own means, and they have all mixed into the army after the restructuring, and they are still officers!

Unlike them, since Lian Zining's father died, the Lian family has long been in ruins, and the stone lions at the doors around them, and the grandeur of the black lacquer gate is indeed very shabby.

"Emperor Zhengde, determined to reform, hey, I can't imagine that this Ming Dynasty has really embarked on a fork in the road. In my time and space, the military household system of the Ming Dynasty has been extended to Emperor Chongzhen since Emperor Hongwu was established, but now it has been abolished. Lian Zining thought in a mess, and had already walked to the door of his small courtyard.

The mottled gate, which has been painted off, and grass has grown in the cracks of the wall, which looks very dilapidated.

Lian Zining took a deep breath, here, it's my own addition, it's me, Lian Zining's home!

He was about to stretch out his hand to push open the door, when suddenly the door creaked, and he opened, revealing a small head inside, looking at it with big black eyes, and then, a figure jumped out, hugged his arm, and said crisply: "Brother, you are back!" ”

This is a girl, looking about twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a blue satin armor, the following is a cyan skirt, although the girl developed early, but her body has not yet grown, only about one meter six in height, a long hair hangs down like a clear soup noodles, bright and lovely, a pure lotus-like pretty face is full of joy, a pair of big black eyes are looking at themselves.

This is what Lian Zining doesn't dare to face and doesn't know how to face, his little sister, Lian Chengyu.

In the forty-sixth year of Zhengde, that is, when Lian Zining was fourteen years old, the miners in Jiangxi rebelled against the army, and the place was eroded, and the avant-garde of the government army was ordered to go on the expedition, and the army ploughed the court to wipe out the rebels. Lian Zining's mother fainted at that time, and since then she has been sick for a long time, and a year later, she also died.

Since then, only Lian Zining and a little sister Cheng Yu have relied on each other, and it has been three years so far.

Lian Zining looked at her little sister, only to feel that her scalp was exploding for a while, and she opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she didn't say anything.

The relationship between the two is very good, and they have been together for a long time, if they show any flaws, Baozhun'er is the first to find out.

"Brother, what's wrong with you? Why did you go out and become stupid?" Lian Chengyu looked at him stunned and shook his shoulder.

Lian Zining's heart moved, and said: "Today, I went to our father's grave to see the two old people, so I was a little depressed. ”

Even the joy on Chengyu's face suddenly disappeared, and a layer of fog gradually rose in a pair of big eyes.

Lian Zining saw that she remembered something sad, and she felt a little reluctant, handed her the vegetable basket in her hand, and said softly: "It's windy here, go in quickly, don't poke it here, be careful that I will suffer if I catch a cold." ”

He was talking about last year's Lantern Festival, that year's Lantern Festival, Lianchengyu was greedy for fun, and he played late outside, but when he came back, he had a high fever and was scary. In this era of underdeveloped medical technology, sometimes a high fever can kill people, and Lian Zining, who was in a hurry, jumped up and down, and took her to the outside hospital in the middle of the night, tossing for most of the night, and finally Cheng Yu was relieved, and he was almost not sick.

Hearing him mention this, Lian Chengyu's heart suddenly warmed, and he burst into tears and smiled: "Brother loves me the most." ”

This is a typical courtyard house, only one entry, three upper rooms, east and west two compartments each have two wings, the small south room next to the door hole is the kitchen, in the corner of the yard, a pear tree is when the pear blossoms are white, the yard is full of cold fragrance.

The area of the yard is not small, such a yard, in such a territory, if it is placed in five hundred years, I am afraid that the price will be calculated in 100 million, and the president of the United States will have to make an appointment if he wants to live, and it depends on whether the owner is willing or not!

But at this time, you still have to think about how to survive first.
