Chapter 1: The Seven Princes

Next Chapter

On a sunny afternoon, the sky was blue, with only a few thin white clouds, as if they had been sunburned, floating slowly in the wind.

Xia Ren was lying on a recliner made of thousand-year-old rattan wood, leisurely eating the purple cloud fruit peeled for him by the maid on the side, while staring at the sky in a daze.

Xia Ren is not a person from this world, he used to live on a blue planet, there is a generation of mechanics master Newton on the planet, he discovered the laws of mechanics, so everything in the future has a scientific basis, but since Xia Ren came to this world three days ago, he feels that Newton's insight is still short-sighted, he has seen which law of mechanics can make people fly in the air? Which law of mechanics can make people punch open the mountain and split the ground with one kick? He has never seen it, but Xia Ren has seen it, and he has seen it with his own eyes.

Originally, Xia Ren was just an ordinary office worker, working from 9 to 5 every day, doing five days off and two days off, although the salary was not high, but it was also stable, and his only hobby may be to read novels. As a result, in the early hours of one morning, I was fascinated by reading novels, and unknowingly died suddenly, and was reborn as the current Xia Ren, a ten-year-old child, and the seventh prince of a great dynasty.

"Your Highness. Your Highness", just as Xia Ren was thinking about it, a little eunuch ran from afar, running all the way and shouting "Your Highness, Your Highness".

"What's the matter?" Xia Ren glanced at the little eunuch who ran to him, the little eunuch was probably in his early tens, and it was his companion little eunuch, called Xiao Guizi. Each prince will be assigned two or three companion little eunuchs, which is convenient for running errands and passing on messages for the prince, and Xia Ren also has a companion little eunuch named Xiao Dezi, who is staying next to Xia Ren.

"Your Highness, you haven't been to the school for three days, Master Qin is really angry, I heard that I want to tell Your Majesty about your skipping class." Xiao Guizi was sweating profusely, for fear that his master would be punished by His Majesty.

"It's okay, I'll take care of it later, Xiao Dezi, take me to the school, I want to go to class, Xiao Guizi, take care of the house", Xia Ren stood up and ordered.

Xiao Guizi and Xiao Dezi each received their own orders.

Xia Ren followed Xiao Dezi and walked slowly towards the school.

The Xuanyuan Hall where Xia Ren is located is on the east side of the palace, and the school hall is also on the east side of the palace, which is very close to the underage princes, which is convenient for the princes to study.

The prince of the Great Xia Dynasty was considered an adult at the age of 15, and the emperor and the ministers discussed the title and fief, and after the king was completed, he could move out of the palace and go to the fief to preside over the affairs of one party.

Of course, there are also princes who don't want to go to the fiefdom, so they can live in the palace of the summer capital, and be an idle prince, the fief is taken care of by the imperial court, and a part of the tax is paid to the prince every year, as for how much to pay, it is unknown.

As for why some princes are reluctant to go to the fiefdoms to serve, after all, some fiefs have a harsh environment, bitter cold weather, and there are dangers. Therefore, those princes would rather stay in the summer capital and be an idle prince than put their lives in danger.

After walking for about half an hour, Xia Ren arrived at the door of the school.

Standing at the door and thinking for a while, Xia Ren instructed Xiao Dezi and the palace maid beside him: "You go to the next palace to wait first, and I will go to meet Master Qin first."

Everyone took the order, and the palace on the side was a special place for the entourage of the princes and the sons of dignitaries who studied in the academy, so that they could wait for the orders of the masters.

When Xia Ren entered the school, he found a teacher standing on the podium, this gentleman was of medium stature, elegant in appearance, holding a book in his hand and really lecturing seriously.

At this time, Xia Ren came in and alarmed the teaching gentleman. Mr. Teaching stopped lecturing and said to Xia Ren, who had just come in, "Your Highness the Seventh, I wonder if your health has improved?"

When Xia Ren first crossed over here three days ago, he was not very familiar with everything, so he made up an excuse that he was unwell and didn't come to the class, and now it's been three days, if he doesn't come to the class again, I'm afraid that he will be stabbed to the emperor's side by Master Qin.

After all, the princes are young and occasionally don't want to go to class, so they can prevaricate by finding some reasons, but they can't not come for three days in a row, otherwise if the emperor knows, it will be Master Qin who will be trained.

"If you go back to the master, the student's body is no longer in the way, and he can listen to the class normally", Xia Ren bowed respectfully to this teaching gentleman, that is, Master Qin.

Although Xia Ren has a very high status as the Seventh Prince, Master Qin, as the mentor of the princes, should have the greatest status in the academy, and Master Qin is still the great Confucian of the Great Xia Academy, and his status is not low. Naturally, he could accept Xia Ren's gift.

"Since His Royal Highness the Seventh is in good health, let's go back to the desk and listen to the class." After speaking, Master Qin continued to explain the previous topic.

Xia Ren also returned to his seat and calmed down to listen to the master's lecture. After all, Xia Ren had just come to this world, and although he had inherited the memory of the original owner, he was still a little uneasy in his heart, and he didn't dare to do anything too out of the ordinary.

I didn't go to class for three days before, that's because I just crossed over, I was restless, and I didn't have much thought about it, and now that I've absorbed the memory, I have to act according to the character of the original owner.

The original owner's personality was originally a quiet type of person, he didn't do things publicly, and there were no princes who opposed him, after all, they were all underage princes, and they hadn't been involved in the struggle of interests, I don't know why, they were worn by Xia Ren from the Earth Star.

Fortunately, Xia Ren was originally a low-key character, after all, people who crossed from the earth star have a tradition, that is, steady, and now there is no need to pretend.

Two hours later, the sky was already slightly dark, and Master Qin also announced that today's class was over and it was time to leave.

Xia Ren cleaned up his desk a little and prepared to go back.

"Brother Huang, Brother Seven", as soon as Xia Ren came out of the gate of the school, he heard someone calling him, and when he looked back, it was a little sister-in-law Liang who was about seven or eight years old calling him, and the sister-in-law Liang's chubby face had a hint of redness, probably chasing Xia Ren out to chase after him, and his big and black eyes were like two black grapes, shining and shiny.

"It turned out to be the royal sister Xi'er, I don't know what the imperial sister is calling her brother?" Xia Ren said with a smile.

"Brother Huang, the queen mother asked me to tell you that I will have dinner with her tomorrow night", Xia Xi jumped up and ran to Xia Ren and said.

"Thank you for telling the royal sister Xi'er, the royal brother knows, and I will go to the queen mother's place for dinner tomorrow night." Xia Ren thought about it and replied.

"Na Xi'er will go first, and the royal brother will go slowly." After saying this, Xia Xi took a team of palace maids and went away.

Xia Ren looked at Xia Xi who was far away, frowning, and fell into deep thought.

Xia Ren is the seventh son of the contemporary Xia Emperor, his mother is Chen Guifei of the harem, but unfortunately Chen Guifei was weak and did not understand martial arts, and was good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Later, due to the dystocia when giving birth to Xia Ren, the imperial doctor in the palace let him choose one of the two, choose the big one to save his life, choose the small one so big will be able to save his life, and finally Xia Ren's mother chose to keep Xia Ren and give birth to Xia Ren safely, and Xia Ren's mother was dying after giving birth to Xia Ren, and under the support of many elixirs, she only lived for a few months before she died, and was canonized as a concubine after her death.

A few months after Xia Ren was born, his biological mother died, and he was adopted by Li Guifei in the harem.

Li Guifei was born in a big family in the Great Xia Dynasty, her father and grandfather were all important ministers in the court, and her brothers were either true descendants of the Great Sect or the leading generals of the Great Xia Dynasty, so although she did not give birth to an heir, she also won the title of a concubine.

Concubine Li Guifei was very good to Xia Ren, regarded him as her own flesh and blood, and she had been with Xia Ren since she was a few months old, except for breastfeeding, without the hands of other people in the palace, until Xia Ren was five years old, and when she reached school age, she was served by a special person in the palace.

Xia Xi was born to Li Guifei when Xia Ren was three years old. So Xia Ren and Xia Xi are the same queen mother, and the relationship between the two is also very close, since the two moved out of Li Guifei's place, they will also go to Li Guifei's place for dinner together for a while.

Xia Xi stopped Xia Ren just now, and it was time to go to Concubine Li Guifei for dinner again, but Xia Ren was not the Xia Ren he used to be, so he didn't talk to Xia Xi much just now, and it was over after answering.
