Cutting 1719

Chapter 1
In the spring of the 58th year of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, the country was prosperous and the people were peaceful, and the world was peaceful.

Outside Xiaogan County, Hanyang Prefecture, Hubei Province, a strange glow suddenly appeared, and the sky was filled with red light.

However, the Ning Mansion in the west of the city was completely silent, the servants just kept their heads down and did their work, no one dared to speak, not even dared to take a peek at the glow outside the city.

The mansion in the six-tiered courtyard looks very empty, and there are Buddha statues on the ancestral hall in the mansion, with green smoke curling up, which has a bit of Zen charm.

An old woman in a brocade jacket was kneeling on the embroidered pier and muttering, and the maids serving beside her also knelt together.

Suddenly, a man broke in from the door, dressed in a black suit, with green stubble on his shaved forehead, a thin and short money rattail braid tied behind his head, with a anxious look on his face .

"Mother, you've been kneeling for half a day, I'm afraid your body won't be able to bear it if you kneel down again." The man knelt beside him and said softly.

The old woman was indifferent, just let out a long sigh, and said: "Amitabha, you are so merciful and merciful, bless my precious grandson with a speedy recovery, and I wish to worship the Buddha for the rest of my life, and the smoke will never stop." She didn't even look at the person who knelt beside her while she was speaking. man.

If this outsider were to know the identity of the man, he would probably not be able to believe his eyes when he saw this submissive appearance.

This person is Ning Zhongyuan, the third-rank guerrilla from the camp guard of Hanyang Prefecture in the Qing Dynasty. He is only in his thirties. It's like sitting on a ground tiger.In this area of ​​Hanyang Mansion, except for a few military and political officials, the rest of the people are not disrespectful or afraid.

But it is such a person, and now it is also a lawsuit. A few days ago, Ning Zhongyuan’s only son, Ning Yu, suddenly had a high fever while playing in the mansion, and then fell into a coma, which made the old lady panic and sent someone to Hanyang Mansion City overnight to inform Ning Zhongyuan, after that, paid a lot of money to hire Chen Dejiu, a famous doctor in Hanyang City. Now this doctor has seen him, and the prescription has been prescribed, but Young Master Ning has not woken up, and the whole house is in a state of panic.

Just when Ning Zhongyuan didn't know what to do, a petite figure rushed over from the door, shouting: "Young master is awake, young master is awake."

The old woman who was kneeling at first breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and said: "The Buddha has manifested, the Buddha has manifested." But the breath of her heart was let go, and the whole person collapsed, feeling a little shaky.

Ning Zhongyuan couldn't help being overjoyed, he quickly got up to help his old mother, let the maid beside him take care of her, and then walked quickly to Ning Yu's yard.

However, Ning Yu at this time is no longer the original young master.

　
Mrs. Ning, who was standing by, wept silently, and her heart felt like a knife was twisted when she heard her son's movements.

Ning Zhongyuan looked at Chen Dejiu who was feeling his pulse, and asked in a low voice: "Genius doctor, what's wrong with my son?"

Chen Dejiu stroked his beard lightly, although his face was as plain as water, his heart was turned upside down, because he had never seen this disease in his life, the pulse was very stagnant at first, and it was only a thread away from the gate of hell, Chen Dejiu had no choice but to prescribe a dose first It is a prescription for reducing fever and calming the mind, but now I find that the pulse condition has become extremely stable again, as if I have never been sick, it is really strange.

However, Chen Dejiu would not smash his own brand, so he could only say vaguely: "Lord Ning, your son's pulse is stable now, and his body is fine. It's just a serious illness that has just recovered, and it will take a few days to recuperate."

When Ning Zhongyuan and Mrs. Ning at the side heard this, they felt grateful in their hearts, and quickly sent 100 taels of Wenyin, and asked Chen Dejiu to see a doctor for the old lady in the mansion.

Even though he had been diagnosed by a famous doctor, Ning Yu still woke up after a whole day and night.

Even though Ning Yu had his eyes closed, he felt as if the sun had passed through his body, and his whole body became warm.

The intertwined memories of the two lifetimes made Ning Yu feel as though a hundred years had passed. Countless strange and familiar scenes circled in his mind endlessly, going back and forth without stopping.It took a long time before Ning Yu felt that his consciousness was finally awakening slowly.

The maidservant who was guarding on the side cried out softly, and quickly called the maidservants inside and outside the house to come over, and told Ning Zhongyuan and his wife the good news. The two were overjoyed and invited the old lady over. When Ningyu first recovered, he didn't stay long, so he ordered his maidservant to take care of her and rest.

It's just that Ning Yu, who was lying on the hospital bed, has been in a trance. After three days of convalescence, she gradually figured out her current identity and situation.

It turns out that I have traveled to the Kangxi period, which was still the 58th year of Kangxi. If we use the Gregorian calendar, then this year is 1719 AD, which is also the beginning of the magnificent 18th century.Although the place of birth was the same as in the previous life, his identity was quite different, from an office worker in his early thirties to a genuine second-generation local tyrant.

But don’t think that the word local tyrant was invented by modern people. It was recorded in "Song Shu·Yin Yan Biography": "Shubao, the son of Du Tan, is a local tyrant, and he specializes in all internal and external military forces."

What is the combination of internal and external military forces?To put it bluntly, in a proper place, the landlords are powerful, and there are people with money and guns in their hands.

According to Ning Yu's understanding of his own identity, he found that he was really an extraordinary nobleman. Although the Ning family was a third-rank military officer's family on the surface, it was actually far more than that. Ning Shixiu said that in This Hanyang Mansion dominates one side, even in this Huguang area, it can be called a powerful side.

Ning Yu's generation is not very rich. Ning Zhongyuan only has three sons and one daughter. Among them, Ning Yu is the eldest son, and there are two younger brothers and sisters who were born in the same family. However, the family strength is extremely strong. There are five people, five sisters, these brothers are engaged in the army and business in the Huguang area, and one of them won the Juren and became an official in the local area.

Although these uncles and brothers did not occupy high positions, the resources in their hands were real. It was the intertwined nature that made the Ning clan stronger and established its current prestige.

In addition, Mrs. Ning's natal family's Cheng family is also a well-known big family. Mrs. Cheng returned from his official position as the right servant of the household department. In this Huguang area, he can also be called a big shot. rare.Mrs. Ning's elder brothers are also in high positions now, the high ones are now as high as magistrates and prefects, and the low ones are also first-class county magistrates and county magistrates, and the power in the family is extremely prominent.

In this era, the power of being an official has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. As the so-called county magistrates who break the family and the governors who destroy the family, these ordinary people are like grass, and they are powerless to resist when they are bullied. Wealth and honor in the world.

Therefore, Ning Zhongyuan worked as a guerrilla in Hanyang Mansion with peace of mind. With that meager salary, the number of slaves in the family's shops, mines and fields increased day by day. In Hanyang's entire prefecture, all the fertile land has already exceeded [-] mu of land.

At this time, Ning Yu has completely accepted his identity. In his previous life, he himself was an orphan. He had suffered a lot since childhood, had suffered enough, and was alone with no worries.Now that I am fortunate enough to be reborn in a wealthy family, I have completely let go of the last trace of fetters in my heart.

Ning Yu happily thought about the future life of a wealthy young master, but inadvertently touched the money rattail braid on the top of his head. The green stubble hair on his forehead was a bit thorny, and that braid seemed to remind him that you are just a slave.

Servant, a very dazzling term, popped up in Ning Yu's mind, and he was a little panicked.

As a modern soul, no matter how much Ning Yu deceives himself, he cannot conceal the fact that he is just a slave at this time.

Even if there are tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, even if one side has power, in today's prosperous Qing Dynasty, he is just a slave.

In the eyes of Emperor Kangxi, the sage of the Qing Dynasty, which of these three thousand miles of mountains and rivers is not his own pasture?Which one is not your own slave?

Give and take, only in one thought.

Ning Yu finally understood why he panicked, because no matter how much he owned, in this era when the Eight Banners ruled the world, he was just a piece of grass. Under the iron hooves of the Eight Banners, everything was illusory.

But in this prosperous Qing Dynasty, what can I do?

Ning Yu reminded himself that today is not 1898, not the end of the dynasty, but the so-called prosperous period of Kangxi, Yongqian and Qianlong.

　Newcomers and new works, I hope you will support me a lot!
