Chapter 1: Crossing Nirvana
"Hey, handsome guy, I've liked you for a long time, let's get along. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Xiao Yi opened his phone and saw this anonymous message. Shook his head, at first glance, which dead friend is playing himself, today is April Fool's Day, and there will be girls who take a fancy to themselves? This kind of news should never be trusted.
Xiao Yi is 22 years old this year, a sophomore in an ordinary undergraduate program, and his appearance is extremely ordinary, which belongs to the kind that he will never find if he is thrown into the pile.
A pure otaku college student, he usually likes to nest in the dormitory and play some strategy games, such as xx total war, xx group heroes, etc., fantasizing that he can one day become a general in the game and lead thousands of troops.
Although Xiao Yi is twenty-two years old, he has not talked about his girlfriend once, one is that he is too shy character, and the other is his absolutely ordinary appearance. But he would never have imagined that on this day, his fate would quietly turn.
Today is April 1, 2016, April Fool's Day. Usually no girl would send this kind of message to herself, but on April Fool's Day, someone sent this kind of message to herself, and it was definitely a dead friend who was playing tricks on herself, maybe it was the same dorm room.
Xiao Yi looked at the time on his phone, 7:22. While getting up, he muttered in his mouth, "It's really convinced, April Fool's Day is actually full of classes, it's really April Fool's Day, tease me." ”
"Hey, silly son, it's class!" Xiao Yi patted his roommate Liu Wang, who was still sleeping, Liu Wang shook it, turned over, and made no sound. Xiao Yi was speechless, and glanced at the quiet bedroom, these brothers were all sleeping with their heads bored without exception, and they were not afraid of being late. Shaking his head, forget it, let's go wash it first, and I have to take a seat for them. It's also interesting to say, these brothers go to the classroom very late every time, but they have a relatively high position every time, thanks to our Xiao Yi, who works tirelessly every day to occupy seats for these brothers, rain or shine.
By the time Xiao Yi washed up, it was already more than seven fifty o'clock, and the first class was at eight o'clock, so there was no time to eat breakfast, so he had to hurry up and take the books to the classroom.
Sitting in the classroom, Xiao Yi did not listen to the lecture. Holding a mobile phone boringly swiping the space dynamics, the old professor was working it and explaining modern history with a red face, but Xiao Yi was playing with his mobile phone unconsciously, in fact, everyone is the same, few people can listen to the boring history class.
Looking at the selfies of the couples, Xiao Yi could only curse, "I rely on it, show your love every day, I wish you a quick break." Xiao Yi didn't understand, why do these people have to have a relationship with their lover on any day, Valentine's Day doesn't need to be said, there is a long festival on September 9, this is good, even April Fool's Day has couples to show affection.
"Cut, what modern history is, it's all about how China allows foreigners to bully." Although Xiao Yi is more interested in history, he is interested in Chinese history as powerful as the Qin, Han, Tang and Ming dynasties, and modern history is the history of humiliation of the Qing Dynasty. Looking at the country's humiliating history but helpless, Xiao Yi hated the feeling of helplessness. Some time ago, I watched a TV series called "Zhu Yuanzhang", and after watching it, I couldn't finish checking the history of the Ming Dynasty, which is especially unnatural.
In fact, Xiao Yi didn't know much about the history of the Ming Dynasty before, because he had almost no contact with the history of this dynasty since he was a child, and he basically came into contact with the Qing Dynasty, what Kangxi Emperor, Yongzheng Emperor, Qianlong Emperor, it seems that the Qing Dynasty emperors are all emperors through the ages, and one person filmed a TV series. All kinds of Qing court dramas are being filmed at a rate of several times a year, so Xiao Yi subconsciously thought that the Qing Dynasty in ancient China was the best, China was the most powerful, ancient times were Qing Dynasty, and Qing Dynasty was ancient times.
But as Xiao Yi read more and learned the treaties in the history books that lost power and humiliated the country, Xiao Yi became suspicious of the strength of the Qing Dynasty. If China was really strong at that time, why was it carved up a few years later? Then Xiao Yi continued to consult the historical books at that time, and then he knew that there was a more brilliant but little-known dynasty in front of the Qing Dynasty, and that dynasty was called the Ming Dynasty.
The more Xiao Yi understood, the more he felt that the Ming Dynasty was really sad, and when it was destroyed, it really caught up with everything, the so-called "southern thieves and northern captives", and at that time, there were all kinds of droughts that had not been encountered for many years, and the plague was endless year after year, and it was even more in time for the Xiaoice River period......
Xiao Yi was even more surprised by the scientific and technological strength and cultural heritage of the Ming Dynasty, and from the very small part that Xiao Yi learned, Xiao Yi felt that the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty were incomparable in almost any aspect.
For Li Zicheng, Xiao Yi's attitude is that this is a clown who jumps off the beam, but he just caught up with good luck, and he is far from a political leader like Zhu Yuanzhang, as a leader of the peasant army, he does not have the decisive power and courage he should have, let alone the strategic vision he should have, and some historians even commented that it is "on the low strategic vision in the past 200 years, and no one can call it the second." If it weren't for Houjin to hold back most of the Ming Dynasty's army, Li Zicheng would not have been able to make trouble anyway.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, as long as the Ming Dynasty generals entered the customs to suppress the bandit peasant army, there was no undefeated, whether it was Cao Wenzhao, Sun Chengzong and others, they were all defeated, and it was a nearly one-sided fiasco, Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting even left Li Zicheng to fight only eighteen cavalry fled to Shangluo Mountain, if it wasn't for the Houjin just to enter the Kou Ming court army to aid Liaodong, so that it had an opportunity, and then dragged on for a month, the thief would die, and there would be no great shun in the world, but history is history after all, and no one can question it.
The morning passed quickly, and Xiao Yi didn't feel hungry at all today, just wanted to sleep. So I didn't go to dinner with anyone else and went back to my dorm room alone.
Back in the bedroom, Xiao Yi hurriedly lay on the bed, and kept muttering, "Modern history, I really don't know what to learn about modern history!" Suddenly felt that his brain hurt very much, and Xiao Yi fell asleep after closing his eyes for a while.
Falling asleep, Xiao Yi felt very hungry, and turned over and shouted, "Liu Wang!" Liu Wang! You stupid son has brought food to his father! He shouted a few times and found that no one cared about him.
Xiao Yi suddenly flickered in his heart and remembered, it seems that she is also full of classes in the afternoon, and she has slept eighty percent!
Hurriedly got up and prepared to get out of bed, and Xiao Yi was stunned when he came together, "What the hell is this?!" Didn't I sleep in my dorm?! ”
I saw Xiao Yi lying on a green space, surrounded by a rural landscape, green space, stones, poplars, and sitting on a big rock. "How did I get outside? Damn, Liu Wang! Did you do it?! Even though it's April Fool's Day, it's not funny at all! ”
Xiao Yi shouted a few times, Liu Wang didn't come out, but a middle-aged man in his forties wearing dirty gray-white coarse cloth clothes came out, giving Xiao Yi a full feeling of a rural farmer.
As soon as the middle-aged man came out and saw Xiao Yi, he grinned in surprise and said, "Xiao Yi, why did you come here, your father is looking for you, go back quickly." ”
"Uh, my dad? My dad is here? Xiao Yi looked around, noticed that he seemed to be wearing clothes similar to him, and asked tentatively: "Uncle, where is this?" ”
The old man smiled and said, "What old man, I am your Uncle Wang, this is the mountain behind Xiaohuangzhuang." What's wrong with this kid's brain. Xiao Yi turned his mind, smiled, and said, "Yes, Uncle Wang, I just ask casually, let's go." Uncle Wang nodded and said, "You kid is really, you left without saying anything, your father is looking for you crazy these days, and you are staying in the back mountain." ”
After about half a burnt incense, Xiao Yi and Uncle Wang climbed a lot of ditches and hillsides, and the two finally arrived at Xiaohuangzhuang. Xiao Yi was already exhausted, originally he thought that the gang of bad friends hired someone to play him, and wanted to try what tricks to play. I didn't want to walk for so long, and when I saw the row of low earthen houses in front of me, Xiao Yi knew that they had arrived at their destination. looked to the side and asked, "Uncle Wang, you're not tired." ”
Uncle Wang smiled and said: "I'm not tired, it's nothing, I think about the time when your Uncle Wang and I were people's husbands, and the work was much more tiring than this." Xiao also asked, "Minfu?" Are you still recruiting people here? ”
"No, our Daming set has long been useless, the officers and soldiers don't care about those, you have to be careful, usually stay in the house, don't come out of the house, hide when you see people, if you are arrested, it is nine deaths, in recent years, people who have been arrested to be people's husbands have almost never come back alive. Your Uncle Wang's group of 300 people, just a few of them came back alive with me. Uncle Wang seemed to remember something special, and his expression became complicated.
Xiao Yi's heart is also overturning, Daming?! This is the Ming Dynasty? Xiao Yi asked urgently, "Uncle Wang, what year is this?" ”
Uncle Wang looked at Xiao Yi strangely and said, "It's October of the second year of Chongzhen, what's wrong with this kid, it's in your head?" ”
Xiao Yi was even more shocked in his heart, in October of the second year of Chongzhen! If I remember correctly, in November of this year, Houjin entered the Kou for the second time, until the Beijing Division, and the place where he passed through was not a single grass. Plundering and slaughtering the wealth of the Ming population is tens of millions, this is nothing, after the Tartars enter the customs, it is not a captive of the population, but a slaughter, and the deeds of the Tartars slaughtering the city in the next city abound. I actually crossed over after a sleep? I actually came to such a chaotic, declining, but full of opportunities.
This time, Yuan Chonghuan, who was the governor of Jiliao, was imprisoned by Emperor Chongzhen and executed by Ling Chi in December.
"Xiao Yi, what's wrong with you, you're almost home, go see your father, he's waiting for you in a hurry." Uncle Wang patted Xiao Yi, who was in a state of shock and had not yet recovered. Xiao Yi nodded and followed Uncle Wang into this small village in the last years of the Ming Dynasty - Xiaohuangzhuang.
