The world of rebirth

After Yang Cheng was carried into the wing where Wen Zhen lived, everyone else was waved away, leaving only Li Deming and Ning Jingxian father and son.

Wen Zhen sat on the kang, gave Ning Jingxian a seat and began to drink tea with a sullen face.After all, he was afraid that Yang Cheng would be damaged by the cold, so he graciously let Yang Cheng go to the kang as well.

Yang Cheng crawled on the kang, found a good angle, made sure that he could clearly see the expressions of his own father and adoptive father, and then sat down to watch the play.

Wen Zhen didn't speak, so naturally no one in the room dared to speak.

The strangely quiet atmosphere in the room made Yang Cheng feel a little depressed, thinking of the big event that might—or would definitely—happen tomorrow, he couldn't help feeling even more uneasy.

Speaking of Wenzhen's experience, it is a bit like the Kangxi Emperor in the history of the second generation.But in fact, Wenzhen is much more miserable than Kangxi. Although Kangxi has no father, at least he still has a shrewd Xiaozhuang as his backing, but Wenzhen still has to protect his sick mother!

Not to mention the harem, the chaotic relationship in the previous dynasty is also very chaotic.

The Fengtian clan originally lived in the Northeast. They are a nation composed of one royal family, five major surnames and nine minor surnames.If you want to trace the origin upwards, you can record it all the way to the ancient Xia Dynasty. According to the records in the family, it can be determined that the Fengtian clan is mainly the Liuqing family of the Xia Dynasty, and there are even priests in charge of the gods. After the Xia Dynasty was defeated by the Shang Dynasty, they In order to escape and preserve their blood, they migrated to the extremely cold place in the northeast as a whole.

At that time, the government was corrupt and the eunuchs were monopolizing power, and it was also a severe drought and earthquake that had not happened in 70 years. People everywhere were in dire straits and wars broke out.The Fengtian tribe originally wanted to enter the customs to fish in troubled waters, but who knew that the more they fought, the smoother they became, but they accidentally wiped out the previous dynasty and suppressed the peasant army as well.

In ancient times, Taizong, Taizhu, Taishi, and Taibu were collectively called the Six Ministers. Among them, Taizong was directly in charge of the royal blood, and the blood of other people who could serve as priests also contained powerful witchcraft. , so Zongzheng, who is the royal family, is the best of the Fengtian clan.

The Fengtian clan divided the power of bloodline into three classes, namely, offering sacrifices to the sky, offering sacrifices to the earth, and offering sacrifices to ghosts. Except for a few members of the Zongzheng family who can awaken the ability to sacrifice to heaven, most of them only have the ability to sacrifice to the earth and ghosts.

After so many years of reproduction and evolution, the bloodlines of the Fengtian clan have also become much thinner, fewer and fewer people can awaken the special abilities of the bloodlines, and even fewer people can have the power to sacrifice to heaven, but the bloodline of the Zongzheng family is still very good. , Most of them can awaken the power of their own blood, and can pray for rain and eliminate disasters by offering sacrifices to the gods of the earth. This ability alone can make ordinary people worship them as gods!

Although the rest of the Fengtian clan are not as defiant as Zongzheng's lineage, even those who have not awakened the power of their bloodlines can have their own strengths in learning prophecy, divination, and medical skills. These abilities and knowledge are still very useful in troubled times.

Wherever the Fengtian clan goes, they can bring benefits to the local people by relying on these people, which makes the people quickly accept their rule.

Although the Zongzheng clan had the fewest members of the Fengtian clan when they first entered the customs, they were the most powerful lineage. Taizu Zong Zhengchengde was not only the number one warrior in the clan, but also the best priest. All kinds of ceremonies presided over by him were the most successful. Yes, it can be said that if you want the wind, you can get the rain.At that time, the entire land of Huaxia happened to be facing the most extensive and longest-lasting drought. In order to win the hearts of the people, the Fengtian clan had to perform one or more rain praying ceremonies every time they captured a land.

There is no free lunch in this world. Even if there are enough generous sacrifices, the Zongzheng family needs to pay for their own vitality every time they want to succeed. As a result, Chengde's generation awakened the power of blood. Many people are prematurely aging, and even Chengde himself died within ten years even if he ascended the throne.

The sons of Taizu Chengde who are capable and skilled have been fighting with him, offering sacrifices to appease people's hearts, but wanting to use the power of blood has something to do with personal practice. Too often, some died earlier than him. In the end, when Cheng De died, there was only one eldest son who was an adult but had no bloodline ability, and a six-year-old son Yannian who had bloodline power.And those of his brothers with bloodline ability died about the same, among the remaining few, the most capable and powerful one was Cheng Gui.

Shizu Yannian ascended to the throne during the battle between his uncle and his elder brother, because his luck was really good. After the severe drought, there were frequent floods in various places. At that time, only Yannian in Zongzheng's line was capable of [-]% The sacrifice was successful, and at the same time, the Fengwu clan who were also driven out of the Central Plains also began to take advantage of the flood to prepare to go south to pick up bargains. They wanted to follow the example of the Fengtian clan and enter the Central Plains again, restore the glory of their ancestors, and establish the Great Shang Dynasty.Because of these yin and yang coincidences, in order to stabilize the newly established country of Great Xia, it is indeed necessary to have a special monarch with the power of blood.

But even if Yannian came to the throne, he would not be able to control the government as a naive child. His uncle and elder brother were the ones who were really in power. He himself was just a mascot. If necessary, he was pushed out to do a sacrifice. After more than [-] years, Yannian finally started to control the government after he finally killed his uncle and elder brother. As a result, within a few years, his body was hollowed out due to overdraft and years of indulgence, and he died soon.

The queen of Yannian died without giving birth to a son, and then she did not stand again. As a result, all the sons were concubines. Before his death, he found that the only one with the strongest blood was Wen Zhen, so he passed the throne to him.He was worried that his son would be ruled by his uncle like himself, so he left four auxiliary ministers for Wenzhen in one breath, and the trouble was big as a result.

After all, the Fengtian Clan has been in the customs for so many years, and the rule has long since stabilized. At this time, there is no need for a large-scale sacrifice to the sky. It does not matter whether the emperor has blood power, so other people will inevitably It's time to start using your brains, after all, who doesn't want to sit on the most noble chair in the world! ?

So the emperor of Great Xia is simply a high-risk occupation!Yang Cheng, who had a new life, sighed, he didn't know why he had a brain twitch and wanted to snatch that chair back then!

He was thinking about messy things in his mind, while Li Deming had already poured Wen Zhen a second cup of tea.

Although he was calm on the surface, Wen Zhen was actually very depressed in his heart, and he still had some hesitation about what he would do tomorrow. If he couldn't catch that old husband, Meng Zhuoming, he would be the one to die!Although the first emperor was ruled back then, he had no worries about his life, and the people on both sides wanted to keep his life, but now he has no way out, one step back is the abyss.

If you don't want to die, you can only let others die!

Wen Zhen put the teacup on the table, and the crisp knocking sound resounded in the room.His expression remained the same, but his eyes became deeper. He looked at Ning Jingxian and asked, "How are you preparing for tomorrow's event? How much do you get? That old man Fu Meng Zhuoming is the number one expert in the banner. You guys Do you have the confidence to take him down!"

"Reporting to the emperor, this matter is only [-]% to [-]% at most..." Ning Jingxian hesitated, he paused and said helplessly, "Please think twice, your majesty, and act only after you have a perfect plan."

"Hmph!" Wen Zhen snorted coldly but didn't get angry, he slapped the table and said angrily, "Muhato is dying, the imperial doctor said he won't survive this year, Fu Meng Zhuoming wants his third son to take over. "

"He wants to seek the position of admiral of the Nine Sects, this..." Ning Jingxian was really shocked this time, and murmured, "He is too greedy, the eldest son is the commander of the infantry, let him win the admiral of the Nine Sects , More than half of the troops in Beijing are in his hands!"

"I have been looking for someone to divination. Until a few years ago, there was only this chance to let him be alone. If I miss this time, it will be even more difficult to go to his mansion to arrest someone. If I accidentally let this old thief Run away, and with his temperament, I'm afraid he will directly lead the army to rebel!" Wen Zhen pinched his fingers and twitched, his eyes fixed on Ning Jingxian, "You 12 are the ones I trust the most, and you are practicing again these days. If you cooperate, no matter what, I will take him down tomorrow!"

Ning Jingxian flicked the corner of his robe and immediately knelt down on one knee, and said in a loud voice, "Your Majesty is only as good as a minister, and I will never refuse to die."

do not!If you die, my old man will have a hard time in the future!

Yang Cheng unhappily pulled out the fur of the long-fur blanket on the kang, and unconsciously pouted.Although he knew that Ning Jingxian should have no accident tomorrow and the mission was successful, he knew that history could be changed. If he slapped the butterfly's wings because of his time travel, it would be a tragedy if this cheap father butterfly died!

Yang Cheng's hair-plucking action was too blatant, the movement he made and Wen Zhen who was sitting on the same blanket were not dead, so he naturally felt it!

However, the picture of a fleshy child concentrating on fighting against the long-haired blanket is so cute that Wen Zhen's face softened a little, "I heard that you love this baby very much, and you will always be there every day no matter how late you are." You have to see him before you can fall asleep, today I asked you to hug him, I just want to see what is so special about him."

Ning Jingxian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he sighed and said, "I treat the three children in the family equally, but Xiao Er is younger, so he cares more."

Wen Zhen raised his eyebrows and asked casually, "Oh, since you love him so much, why haven't you named him yet?"

Ning Jingxian really couldn't figure out why the emperor was so concerned about Xiao Er's affairs, he knew that Wen Zhen was suspicious, although he was fooled last year, but seeing the emperor's actions these two times seemed suspicious again, this made him even more suspicious It was a little worried, but the more he was like this, the more frank he could be so as not to appear guilty.

Seeing that he was hesitant and didn't speak, Li Deming thought it would be good to sell his favor at this time, so he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you may not know that the people are afraid that children will be hard to raise, and they were seduced by the hell early, so why don't they choose a cheap name first to use it?" That’s why I got my name just before I went to school.”

"Is there another theory?" Wenzhen heard it for the first time.

Ning Jingxian quickly nodded in agreement, and explained, "The child has been weak since he was a child, and he has been very dangerous several times. I am afraid that he will not be able to survive, so I have not named him for fear that he will be seduced!"

"I think his body is very good now!" Wen Zhen looked at the fat baby on the kang who was enjoying himself, and couldn't help but think of his eldest son who died young.

Although he had made up his mind to send him away at the beginning, he also had a premonition that there would be bad luck, but when Ning Jingxian really came back with a cold corpse in his arms, he didn't even have the courage to take a closer look. After all, it was his first corpse. A child, it is inevitable that there is still some sentimentality in my heart!

Hearing that day Li Deming said that the child was similar to the eldest prince, he was also moved, wondering if Ning Jingxian had tampered with it.During the time he lived in the Ning Mansion, he asked someone to inquire about it. The servants all said that Ning Jingxian loved the child very much. In Wenzhen's opinion, if it was not his own, even the prince should be somewhat alienated. .After that, he asked someone to ask the doctor who took the pulse of the two children, and the two children's physiques were indeed different.

The eldest prince was congenitally weak, and his brothers took away all the nutrients in the womb; the second son of the Ning family was physically weak due to his mother's weakness, and he could be cured as long as he took good care of him. There was an essential difference.It was because of this that Wen Zhen lost his suspicions again, so he specially called someone here to test it out tonight.

After all, he was only in his teens, and he was not the future emperor with unpredictable power, so he couldn't completely hide his emotions.

When Yang Cheng saw his abnormal behavior, he knew that Wen Zhen had a small plan in mind. To put it bluntly, he was afraid that Ning Jingxian would be heroic tomorrow, and he had to solve his doubts today.Fortunately, with just such a little suspicion, Wen Zhen couldn't get himself to admit his relatives so brazenly!

After Wen Zhen finished asking, he chatted with Ning Jingxian about some court affairs, and changed the topic away from Yang Cheng, which made both Ning Jingxian and Yang Cheng heave a sigh of relief.

However, the two of them obviously reassured too early. Yi Wenzhen gradually revealed his nature—you make me unhappy, and I make your whole family unhappy. He said that Yang Cheng is now in good health and can be named , so he named Yangcheng Ning Yunjin with extra grace.

Hearing this name, Yang Cheng couldn't help cursing in his heart!It's not that this name is bad, but the ancients emphasized a taboo. Although Jing and Jin are written differently, they have similar pronunciations. It will be very troublesome to choose such a name for yourself!

The author has something to say: The Fengtian clan is very powerful, but there are also clans that are as powerful as them~

Ancient knowledge: In addition to the emperor, the ancients also avoided the name of the emperor, that is, they should avoid the names of their ancestors. The most absurd time has come to avoid homophones.There are a few very famous ones, such as Li He, a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty, because his father's name was Li Jinsu, and "Jin" has the same pronunciation as "Jin" in Jinshi, so he couldn't take the examination for Jinshi for life.Another man named Yuan Shide couldn't bear to eat cakes because his father's name was Yuan Gao, which has the same pronunciation as "cake" and "gao".What's more, Song Gaozong's name was Zhao Gou. In order to avoid his taboo, more than [-] homonyms such as enough, ditch, and purchase were all banned.

PS: Therefore, although Yangcheng has a new name, it cannot be used most of the time, and the name given by the emperor cannot be changed.
