Chapter 1: The First Arrival in Another World
Zhao Zili lay on the bed, looked at the antique buildings around him, and muttered to himself: "I really crossed over." ”
Just three months ago, Zhao Zili was still a social animal, clocking in to work in the library every day, living day after day.
Since he was a child, his father has taken great pains to tell himself that our old Zhao family is the descendant of Zhao Kuangyin, the royal family, and he also took out a family tree.
I'm sorry, it's been a hundred years since the Qing Dynasty perished, and the Song Dynasty was thousands of years ago, even if it's true, it's useless.
After graduating from college, I found a job in a library, which was stable and boring, and just three months ago, I took my family tree to cover instant noodles, and suddenly a burst of golden light came here.
Blue Star, which seems to be the parallel space of the earth, is still in the era of the feudal dynasty, it seems that his identity is still the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but he is the most unfavored one, and he usually eats, drinks and has five poisons, known as the little white dragon in the waves.
Forget it, Zhao Zili sat up and patted his thigh: "If you come, you will be safe, fortunately, in this world, I used to be unruly, no one paid attention, at least I am still a prince at least I don't have to worry about food and clothing." ”
As a standard social animal, this ability to resist pressure is still there, but I miss my parents very much, but fortunately I am not an only child, and my brother can be filial.
Packing up his mood, he pushed open the door of the house.
When the servants saw that the master had finally come out, they were overjoyed, and if something happened to the master, according to the laws of the dynasty, he would be buried with him, and he knelt on the ground: "I have seen Your Highness." ”
Zhao Zili was still a little uncomfortable, but in order not to be exposed, he coughed twice and said, "Get up, what to do and what to do." ”
"Your Highness the Seventh, Gonggong Cao in the front hall has come to deliver the decree." At this moment, the housekeeper Gao Xiang walked over.
"Father-in-law Cao, my father's side, why did my father think of me." Zhao Zili knew that he had lived outside the palace since he was a child, and he hadn't seen much with his cheap father, so he was very surprised when he suddenly came to pass the decree.
"Your Highness forgot, three months later will be your 14th birthday, according to the custom, you will be canonized as a king, given a fief, and you can officially open your teeth and build a mansion." Gao Xiang, as the old man of the Seven Princes' Mansion, these things are still clear.
"I see, hurry up and canonize, and then let's go and stay away from this imperial city." Zhao Zili can think about it, and if he has a fief, he will leave quickly and be a free king.
"Your Highness can see clearly, there are too many disturbances in the capital, and it is good to stay away." Gao Xiang also knew that his master had no chance with the throne, so it was better to leave the land of right and wrong as soon as possible to keep him safe.
"Okay, since that's the case, let's go and meet Grandpa Cao." After straightening his clothes, Zhao Zili came to the front hall, and Cao Zhengchun had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Zhao Zili coming, Cao Zhengchun hurriedly got up and knelt down respectfully and saluted: "The old slave has seen His Royal Highness the Seventh, a thousand years old." ”
Zhao Zili didn't dare to be careless, he helped him up with both hands, the personal eunuch beside the emperor was not so easy to deal with, and hurriedly said: "My father-in-law is too outside, I don't know what my father's will is." ”
Cao Zhengchun was a little surprised, it was rumored that the Seven Highnesses were unrestrained, but he didn't expect to be so polite, nodded slightly, and took out the holy decree.
Zhao Zili hurriedly knelt down with the housekeeper.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, the seventh prince Zhao Zili is fourteen years old, pure conduct, deep Xiao bow, specially named King of Song, fief Haining, after the birth of the fief must not be mistaken."
After Cao Zhengchun read out the holy decree, he looked at Zhao Zili with some sympathy, Dazhou is rich in resources, but this Haining is not only far away from the capital, but also surrounded by the sea on three sides, which is not a good place.
"Sons obey the order, long live long live long live." Zhao Zili took the holy decree with both hands, took out a bag of silver, and handed it to Cao Zhengchun.
Cao Zhengchun was not pretentious, and put it in his pocket.
"Father-in-law Cao is working hard, I bother you to tell your father, and I won't go to the palace to thank you." Zhao Zili also knew what kind of place Haining was, but he was not angry but happy, because Haining was a treasure in his eyes.
"It's time to call the prince." Zhao Zili is so calm, in Cao Zhengchun's eyes, he is resigned to his fate, but he is also a prince, and he still has to give face.
"Let's go back to the palace, oh yes, Your Majesty said that it will be the palace poetry meeting in a few days, and it will be good to enter the palace to thank you at that time."
After Cao Zhengchun left, Gao Xiang sighed and said, "Palace... Oh no, Wang Ye Haining is too barren, the old slave has to prepare early, and the people of Fuli don't necessarily want to go with him, the old slave dared to ask, what if he doesn't want to go. ”
"If you don't want to, give some money and leave, remember that those who abandon me can't stay yesterday." Zhao Zili looked at the holy decree in his hand, and secretly calculated, there are still three months to prepare more.
Gao Xiang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, he can say such words, it seems that the prince is clumsy, and his master is not simple.
"Yes, the old slave will go, there are still three months, the old slave must prepare well, and the old slave will retire." After Gao Xiang finished speaking, Zhao Zili asked him to go down and make arrangements.
Back in the palace, Cao Zhengchun had already returned to Zhao Tianqiong, Emperor Wu of Zhou.
"Oh, that kid didn't make trouble, no matter what, he owes him so many years, there are a few iron mines around Haining, although the quality is not good, it can be regarded as some output, give him a seal together, and then give him a thousand taels of gold and ten thousand taels of silver."
Emperor Wu of Zhou has a lot of sons, and he doesn't care very much about this old seventh, after all, he is still a prince and can't let him live too hard in the future.
"Obey the order, the old slave will do it, and let King Song take over Haining safely." Seeing that Emperor Wu was a little moved, Cao Zhengchun naturally knew what to do.
"You slave is really smart, okay, in a few days, the royal poetry will be attended by talented and beautiful people from all over the country, and you can't be careless in the afternoon."
Although the Great Zhou Dynasty attaches great importance to martial arts, it also attaches great importance to culture, and its national strength is also thriving.
"Obeying the order will not disappoint Your Majesty."
After the other princes learned that Lao Qi was sealed to Haining, most of them were still gloating.
The eldest prince, Zhao Zilin, the king of Qin, is both civil and military, and is the most promising candidate for the crown prince, but he has never been to the fief.
"Master Jia, my father asked Lao Qi to go to Haining, this is also a signal, if I can't become the prince, this is my fate." The eldest prince was a little chilly, and his father was still unfathomable.
The master of the great prince Jia Xu is also the chief strategist: "Your Highness, Haining Mountain is far away and materials are scarce, so it is better for us to send some gold and silver to King Song as a cousin." ”
"What Master Jia said makes sense, so that my father will also think that I feel sorry for my brother and will be more inclined to me." The eldest prince also understands his father very well, this seems to be an ordinary prince, but in fact, it depends on the reaction of all the princes.
Jia Xu nodded, looking like a teachable child.
The other princes also guessed the emperor's thoughts and gave generous gifts, and for a while, the Seven Princes' Mansion, which was not rich, was suddenly full.
"Oh, when have we ever been so rich, lord." Gao Xiang looked at the white flowers, the golden silver and gold, and the corners of his mouth were crooked, and he couldn't wait to sleep together.
"Don't be foolish, the idea of my father and a few brothers is not obvious, on the one hand, forcing me to go to the fiefdom, on the other hand, to show my brotherhood." Lying on the rocking chair, the maid next to him was feeding the grapes, and Zhao Zili suddenly felt that crossing was also a good thing.
He is familiar with history, but he understands it too well, this is a proper conspiracy.
Spit out the grape skin, Zhao Zili stood up: "Uncle Xiang, how many people are willing to go with me now, if there are not enough people, go to the slave market to buy some, we have money." ”
"Back to the prince, the maid is Ah Ruo beside you, and the guards are willing to go privately." Uncle Xiang was a little embarrassed, but he didn't expect there to be only a few people.
Zhao Zili looked at the little girl beside him and asked, "Haining is poor, and the road is far away, are you willing to go?" ”
Ah Ruo knelt down and replied in a low voice: "Ah Ruo has entered the mansion since he was a child, and the prince is the heaven of slaves and maids, and the slaves and maids will go wherever the prince goes." ”
"Okay, the other four guards are called." Zhao Zili doesn't care about the lack of people, as long as he is loyal, if he wants to survive in this world, he must not be disloyal.
After a while, Gao Xiang came to Zhao Zili with four young people and introduced them one by one: "Lord Wang, these four people are Shui Rou, Leng Feng, Qin Huo, and Shi Lei. ”
"Oh, and a female guard." Zhao Zili looked at Shui Rou with interest.
"Lord Wang, don't underestimate people, Shui Rou's strength is the most powerful among them, and with her, we will be much safer on the road." Gao Xiang knows that the appearance of a woman with a soft water has a heart that is stronger than that of a man.
"Well, from today onwards you will be my personal guard, and this king will not treat you badly."
"Thank you, Lord Wang!" The four of them replied together, they have no relatives and no reason, it is better to follow Zhao Zili, even if Haining is poor, at least he will not wander around anymore and send people under the fence.
"But Lord Wang, you're right, we are really short of manpower, and the slave market is a place to supplement manpower by signing a contract of life and death."
Gao Xiang thought about it, this trip to Haining, there are a lot of things, and it is necessary to ensure safety on the road, just a few people are really not enough.
"Bring Shui Rou and the four of them, even if someone makes trouble, it will be enough to deal with it." Zhao Zili has not been idle in the past few months, he has read a lot of mainland history and customs, and has a basic understanding of the current era.
The next day, Zhao Zili took Gao Xiang and four guards to the largest slave market in the capital, these are all abducted, defeated, and people who have to sell themselves in order to live, needless to say, the environment.
Becoming a slave is in the hands of the master, although there is no magic god and demon in this world, but there is a very high contract limit, and there is absolutely no good end for breaking the contract.
This made Zhao Zili feel that there was an existence beyond human beings in this world, but it was never discovered.
"This time, we will first find craftsmen, followed by some guards who have reached out." Zhao Zili has a clear goal, as a former librarian, as long as there are craftsmen in hand, he can create infinite possibilities.
"Artisan?" Although I am a little confused, since it is the prince's order, I will make up for the shortcomings.
"Craftsmen are generally more expensive, so the prince will go this way." Under the leadership of Gao Xiang, several people came to a relatively clean area.
