I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 1 (Prologue) From Brother Liu Bei
In October of the second year of Han Jianning, Zhuo County.

In autumn, Zhuo County began to cool down gradually. In the morning, the milky white mist was misty, and most of the things in the county were bathed in the morning mist, hazy and faintly visible.

Lou Sang belongs to Zhuo County and is located in the south of Zhuo County. It is named after the many mulberry trees planted in and around the village - the big tree Lou Sang.

It was sunny today after the rain, and the air in the countryside outside Lousang Village was filled with a faint fragrance of earth.The winding dirt road connects Zhuo County and Lousang. On the way, there are occasional ginkgo trees with golden leaves. Under the sunlight in the morning, they are shining with dazzling luster. on the ground.

An ox cart was slowly driving towards Lousang Village from the direction of Zhuo County with a dull sound of 'creaking'. From a distance, whether it was the old cart ox or the cart that was about to fall apart The abandoned ox carts are obviously out of place with this golden autumn picture on the dirt road.

"Oh, my dear brother, come back..."

Liu Yuanqi, who was sitting on the bullock cart, had a mournful face, frowned, and sighed.

He was not old, and his complexion was rosy and shiny, but his gloomy look made his age 30 years old.

Liu Yuanqi's real name is Liu Zhou, and his character is Yuanqi. He is quite a respectable figure in Zhuo County, but he is limited to one-third of an acre of land in Zhuo County.

Liu Zhou owns quite a lot of land in Zhuo County, so he can't be considered rich, but he is definitely not poor... But compared to his limited wealth, what he can really be proud of is his status as the successor of King Jing of Zhongshan.

But this remote clan status is only taken seriously by Liu Zhou himself. Liu Sheng, the ninth son of Emperor Jing of Zhongshan, has a large group of children, and Liu Zhou is the No. 16 grandson of Emperor Jing of Han. This description alone can suffice Imagine how thin the clan blood on him is.

At best, it is as many as a mosquito bite.

"Father, why haven't you arrived yet?"

A childish voice brought Liu Zhou back to his thoughts, and he turned to look at his son beside him.

Seeing this, Liu Zhou got angry.

After becoming a clan member, Liu Zhou paid great attention to his own image. No matter who he met or greeted, he would "sit upright", even if he was eating with his own family, he would "don't hold back the table and pick up the clothes".

He reminds himself all the time that he is one of the tens of thousands of grandchildren of Prince Jing of Zhongshan.

What an honor!

But his son's sitting posture at this time was in stark contrast to Liu Zhou who was sitting upright.

"Don't sit like this! It's disrespectful!"

Facing Liu Zhou's sudden reprimand, the five-year-old Liu Jian subconsciously looked down at his sitting posture.

The hips are on the ground, the legs are curled up, and the two hands are hugging the legs... Is there anything wrong?He didn't split his legs and show his crotch.

This position is actually quite uncomfortable, but on this bumpy and rough bull cart, apart from lying down, I'm afraid I can't find a more comfortable position than this position.

"Father, where did I lose my manners?"

"Why don't you just sit down?"

Liu Jian's immature face began to twitch.

Sitting squatting means sitting on your knees!Kneeling on this wooden cart, my knees must not come out of the pit?

"Father, this is an ox cart, and I'm meeting the elders on an informal occasion, why do you want to sit on the ground?"

Liu Zhou said with a straight face, "Why can't you just walk on the bullock cart? Isn't being your father your elder?"

"Father, you are a bit unreasonable. I kneel on the bullock cart. Is it the cow or the father..."

Liu Zhou's face sank all of a sudden.

……

After less than three cups of tea, Liu Jian sat upright on Niuche Mountain, one of the two hairs on his head was broken, and slightly yellowish filaments spread to one side On his pink face, there is an inconspicuous Wuzhishan mark on the left cheek.

Liu Jian is a solid kid, and he is not afraid of pain when he resists beatings, and it's okay to be beaten.

It's just that he doesn't understand that a cute five-year-old boy, who has not yet reached the age of president, is so cute that everyone loves him, but it's too late to attract others... How can he, a father who is polite in front of outsiders, be able to treat his own family? Can the youngest son of Chuipao get rid of his big pig's trotters?

Liu Jian thought to himself, if he were to hit his son because of his sitting posture, he would never do it.

The father of the Han Dynasty - really not very good.

Yes, the five-year-old Liu Jian was fused with the soul of a later adult man. The fusion of these two souls was about two months ago.

During this period of time, Liu Jian was tortured very painfully. It was not that he lacked food and clothing after time-traveling, but the family was relatively wealthy.

It's just that there were too many rules in the Han Dynasty, especially Liu Zhou, a "mosquito clan" who regarded himself as extraordinary, was very strict with his offspring, even eating and drinking.

It's true, you have to do it on a regular basis.

In the past two months or so, Liu Jian has averaged a small beating every three days and a heavy beating every five days.

Liu Jian rubbed his sore knee, and gave Liu Zhou a dissatisfied look.

When Liu Zhou turned his head, he immediately looked away again, showing an innocent and lovely expression.

"It doesn't matter if you don't have the rules in normal times, you son of a bitch, if you go to pay homage to your father today, you must not embarrass your father! If not, I must teach you the family law."

Liu Jian rolled his eyes, it doesn't matter.

"Understood, my child, remember it."

He is not interested in commemorating his father, what he cares most about is his destiny and future.

Although Liu Jian studied engineering in his previous life, he knew about the end of the Han Dynasty. Through his life in the Han Dynasty for two months, he knew his situation.

He heard from the adults that it was the second year of Jianning, and he even found out that the emperor's name was Hong.

He knew that Liu Hong was the Ling Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and he also knew that the building would collapse and the Han Dynasty would fall into war in the future. The famous Yellow Turban Uprising took place during Liu Hong's rule.

However, Liu Jian still doesn't know when the Yellow Turban Uprising will happen, nor does he know which stage Liu Hong is in charge of the Han.

He was only five years old, and he couldn't even decide whether to kneel in a bullock cart. He couldn't ask questions about the emperor and rebellion.

He was afraid that if he opened his mouth, Liu Zhou would directly hang his cute five-year-old baby.

"Your fate from your father was rough. Although you belonged to the Han Dynasty sect, you never achieved success in your life. You passed away in less than [-] years, leaving behind women and children. I am afraid that it will be difficult to survive. Today is his four-seventh day, and he will lead you there for your father." Pay your respects."

Liu Jian's attention was drawn back to reality by Liu Zhou's thoughts.

"Father took the child to pay homage today, presumably he also intended to help his mother and the orphan?"

Tribute to brothers?Drop by to see The Widow?
Liu Zhou didn't expect his five-year-old son to think of such a level.

He stroked his beard and looked at Liu Jian solemnly, with a threatening tone in his tone: "What I said just now, but your mother taught you to say it to me on purpose! Is that right!?"

Liu Jian could clearly feel that when Liu Zhou said this, Zhou's aura was completely different from Shicai's, and the knuckles of his fists were still clenched.

When life and death were at stake, Liu Jian hurriedly pretended to be cute: "Father, I came out with you early this morning, and I didn't say a few words to my mother, and besides, my mother never gave me caramel, why should I learn her words?"

Facing the childish words of the youngest son, Liu Zhou was taken aback for a moment, and then secretly thought that he was being overwhelmed.

His wife is usually stingy, and he also talked to his wife about helping his deceased brother's wife and children a few days ago, who would have thought that the unvirtuous wife would be furious and make a fuss... It's his fault!

As soon as Liu Jian's words came out just now, Liu Zhou's first reaction was that his mother taught him to let the children hinder him from helping his brother and wife... But thinking about it carefully, no matter how unreasonable the woman is, she shouldn't He will teach his children such nonsense, after all, this child is only five years old.

Liu Zhou stretched out his hand and touched Liu Jian's head, his tone softened uncommonly: "As a father, I shouldn't hit you, nor should I murder you. You guessed right, after you left your father, you left behind a wife and a son." , but there is no money left in the family, we are of the same clan after all, so we still need to help."

Liu Jian praised Liu Zhou in his heart.

Although this cheap father is a bit old-fashioned and vain, and his actions are not in harmony with him-but in the matter of being compassionate, Liu Jian feels that his father is quite accommodating to his son.

"Father's virtue is noble, children should learn it diligently."

Liu Zhou listened to what this kid said, but just now his unhappiness because of his poor ride was swept away.

He stretched out his arms to hold Liu Jian in his arms, laughed loudly and said, "My son already has a benevolent heart at such a young age, and I feel very comforted for my father."

The father of the Han Dynasty, why turned his face like turning a book?

Liu Jian was so pulled by Liu Zhou that his knees were so painful that his knees were so sunken that he almost burst into tears.

However, he still proudly puffed up his chest: "The foundation of benevolence and righteousness was taught to me by Mr. Xu in the temporary house a few days ago. Although I am young, I should also take the sages as teachers and learn them diligently ……hiss!"

In the end, Liu Jian couldn't stand it anymore. He sat on the bullock cart with his butt again, rubbed his knees and said, "Father, why don't I get off the cart and take a few steps?"

Liu Zhou smiled and said: "After kneeling for so long, I should rest as well. Besides teaching you that sentence just now, what else did Mr. Xu say?"

Liu Jian rubbed his knees with his small hands, and replied: "I didn't teach much, but I even praised me for acting differently from ordinary people, and after a long time, I am extraordinary."

Liu Zhou was overjoyed when he heard the words: "Oh? What great things did my son do? The old man praised him so much?"

"I don't know, or did I hit his inkstone? Or did I accidentally break his cane? Or... Is it because I threw the old man's dog into the well?"

Liu Zhou's expression froze instantly.

This kid needs more beatings.

…………

At noon, the father and son arrived at Lousang Village.

The person Liu Zhou wanted to visit lived in a dilapidated house on the east side of Lousang Village. There was a mulberry tree on the southeast corner of the house, which was more than five feet high and looked like a car cover in the distance.

When Liu Zhou and his son arrived, they saw a large group of children playing under the big mulberry tree, shouting and shouting, and it was very lively.

For some reason, seeing this scene, Liu Jian's heart began to beat faster, and an inexplicable thought appeared in his mind.

Although he is not a history professional, nor is he a novice, he naturally knows some familiar allusions, and the scene in front of him reminds him of one thing.

When the First Lord was young, he played with all the children of the sect under a tree and said, "I will ride in this Yubao-covered chariot."

My surname is Liu, and I'm still a clan relative of the Han Dynasty... Although looking at the whole world of the Han Dynasty, there are [-] clan relatives of the Han Dynasty recorded in the Zongzheng Office, and the blood is remote, and most of them are not on the table, but they are still clan relatives.

Which of the Han family clansmen in the late Han Dynasty is the most famous?

"A Bei!"

Liu Zhou's shout of 'A Bei' shouted out all the doubts and confusion in Liu Jian's heart!
The future is bright!

Of course, if possible, he subconsciously hopes that his father can call "A Cao". In this day and age, being Cao Cao's relative should be more comfortable than being Liu Bei's brother.

Following the shouts, a seven or eight-year-old boy ran towards Liu Zhou.

He is thin and not tall among children of the same age, and his face is slightly yellow and disheveled.

There is nothing surprising about it. It is not uncommon for the clansmen of the Han Dynasty to die of starvation, let alone not having enough to eat.

Such is the environment.

But if you look carefully, you will find that the child's ears are really not small, a pair of big fan ears, especially the earlobes are so big and thick that they are really about to drop to the shoulders.

Blessed are children with big ears~
"My nephew has met my uncle." Liu Bei was young and quite polite.

"Where's your mother?"

Gee...

"Go back to uncle, my loving mother is guarding my father's spirit in the house."

"Your father passed away not long ago, why didn't you stay in the house with your mother to keep watch?"

Liu Bei hesitated a little when he heard the words, and then saw his eyes blink a few times, and two lines of tears suddenly flowed down.

Liu Zhou was taken aback when he saw this, why did the child cry whenever he said so?

"My nephew looks at the old things in the house, and feels that his father is not far away, and he is in a trance every day, so my mother asked me to come out to let the wind go, lest I miss my father and hurt my body..."

Speaking of this, Liu Bei couldn't control it anymore, and cried out with a 'wow'.

Liu Zhou panicked when he saw this, and hurried forward to comfort him, while Liu Jian on the side was secretly amused.

It's obvious that he has never obeyed his filial piety and sneaked out to fool around - but he made up his lies smoothly!It also has a crying halo, tears come when you say it, no wonder my sincere father panicked instantly.

Liu Zhou took a lot of coaxing before Liu Bei stopped crying.

"Take me to sacrifice your father's spiritual seat, and meet your mother by the way." Liu Zhou sighed.

Liu Bei immediately led the way.

In fact, when Liu Bei's father Liu Hong passed away and was buried, Liu Zhou, who is a brother of the same clan, helped a lot, and the etiquette was extremely comprehensive. It doesn't matter whether he sacrifices or not today.

But if it is said that Liu Zhou came to visit his younger siblings, it would be hard to say.

Liu Zhou asked Liu Jian to wait outside first, and then let him go in to pay homage after the business was finished.

Liu Jian didn't care, he just wanted to be clean.

Liu Bei led Liu Zhou into the house, and the teenagers who were playing with Liu Bei under the big mulberry tree just now seemed to have lost their backbone.

Without Liu Bei, they don't seem to know how to play.

When all the children were leaderless, five-year-old Liu Jian walked over with a smile.

"Let's play together?"

"Who are you? We don't know you."

"Stupid! You guys will get to know each other after playing for a while, but I have caramel with me."

……

Liu Bei led Liu Zhou into the house to meet his mother, and then the two of them had a conversation, and ran out again after finding an excuse.

Today we are playing the game of being an emperor, who can be worshiped by other children.

As the head of the child, Liu Bei is naturally the No. 1 choice for the 'Emperor', and he hasn't had enough fun just yet.

But when he came under the big mulberry tree, the scene in front of him made him dumbfounded.

A group of children who had him as the center just now were surrounding Liu Jian at this moment, all of them with dull expressions, allowing Liu Jian to brainwash them without haste.

"The laws of the Qin Dynasty are very strict. After Gaozu entered Xianyang, he made a three-chapter agreement. Later, Prime Minister Xiao formulated the "Nine Chapters Law", which is still used by our dynasty today..."

"What does this have to do with us?"

"Why doesn't it matter? Since the development of the Han Law, there are more than a thousand capital offenses, and more than 400 of them are related to you!"

"Why? How did we commit a capital crime?"

"What were you playing just now? Are you pretending to be the emperor?"

"Just play, you don't care!"

Liu Jian sat under the mulberry tree, bragging to a group of Eastern Han children.

The cowhide he boasted was true or false, and it was related to the laws of Qin and Han. He learned it when he heard the bragging of Mr. Xu, a poor family next to his house.

Of course, some of his own private goods were also mixed in.

How can more than 400 capital offenses have anything to do with these brats?If there were, how could he list them all with his mouth open?It sounds like nonsense.

But the children in Lousang Village had never seen the world, so they were afraid to hear his nonsense.

Liu Jian said leisurely: "Emperor, how could anyone be able to be one? You little brats, who call themselves emperors and spread the word, must be a death penalty... No, it's the barbarians."

"I didn't call myself emperor!"

"Me neither!"

"I, I want to be, but they won't let me."

Liu Jian raised his eyebrows: "Then who will be the one?"

At this moment, Liu Bei felt that something was wrong.

Swish-!
The eyes of all the children fell on Liu Bei who had just returned, making the young Liu Bei want to cry without tears.

"It's Ah Bei!"

"A Bei said he wants to be emperor!"

"I didn't say that!" Liu Bei hastily waved his hand in denial.

A snotty kid pointed at the big mulberry tree and said, "Every time A Bei plays, he fights to be the emperor, and he also said that when he grows up, he will ride in this Yubao covered car to show off his wealth!"

"He also said that wealth does not return home, such as, such... what is it?"

The betrayed Liu Bei gritted his teeth angrily!

If I am really the emperor, I will cook you all to death.

"Believe it or not, I beat you!"

"Wow!"

In an instant, all the monkey cubs dispersed, leaving only Liu Bei and Liu Jian facing each other indifferently.

"Brother Cong, younger brother Liu Jian has met, and today I came with my father to visit my aunt and brother Cong."

Liu Bei looked around the room... just now there was still a lot of voices, but now there is no one.

"Is that how you see me?"

Liu Jian smiled when he heard this.

Even if he is a hero in the future, but now he is only an eight-year-old child, his temperament is far from mature, and it is okay to play a little smart, but he will still panic when encountering big things.

"Brother, don't blame me. You and I are brothers of the same clan. Your father is my uncle. If you break the law of the Han Dynasty because of a joke, won't you implicate me all over the family? I am not harming you today, but saving you."

"help me?"

Liu Jianyu said earnestly: "Brother, let me know what happened today. If others hear it, our whole family will be full, or you will be implicated because of you... It doesn't matter if you kill others, but do you want to kill your aunt?" ?Uncle has passed away, it would be very bitter for aunt to take you alone, don't you want her to have a good death?"

After all, Liu Jian made a horizontal 'click' gesture with his hand to his neck.

Liu Bei's face turned pale.

Not surprisingly, Liu Bei was indeed frightened, and the eight-year-old was indeed frightened by the five-year-old.

"And those friends you made, look, what kind of virtues are they? They know how to make fun of you on weekdays, and make you emperor when they play, but when it comes to critical moments, they sell you faster than selling meat! "

Liu Bei hesitated and said, "But, they are still children."

You have the nerve to say they are children?
"They are children, am I not? How can I not sell you!"

Liu Bei was taken aback when he heard this.

That's right, the little man in front of me who is a whole head shorter than himself is also a child!

But why is he so old-fashioned when he talks?
When Liu Bei was in a daze, Liu Jian suddenly pointed to the big mulberry tree next to him, and asked, "Brother, does anyone know who can take the Yubaogai car?"

Liu Bei asked subconsciously, "Who?"

"If you are not a person of great virtue, great ability, great kindness and righteousness, you can't take advantage of it."

"what for?"

"In layman's terms, it is to be friendly and sincere to people, especially to those around you, such as brothers of the same clan, you must be sincere, respectful to brothers and friends, and brothers who are in trouble must stand on their feet. Block the knife for him in front..."

Liu Bei was speechless for a moment.

Liu Jian knew in his heart that in the not-too-distant future, this dying dynasty would collapse. At that time, it would be a chaotic world where human life was worse than a dog. It would last for decades, and everyone would face a crisis of survival.

And he, Liu Jian, is neither aristocratic nor powerful, and his family's property is no more than mid-range in the county. If it was a peaceful and prosperous age, he could enjoy a good life, but in troubled times, a small-scale battle between warlords, destroy all of him.

His best way out is to find a backer.

It can be said that Liu Jian's identity doesn't mean that he can take him in whoever he wants to join.

Right now, Liu Bei of the same clan appeared in front of him, a great man in the late Han Dynasty.

In fairness, Liu Bei is not the best destination, but for Liu Jian, it is the only choice at present.

Liu Jian stepped on his feet and patted the stunned Liu Bei on the shoulder: "Treat me well, I will let you sit in the big car!"

……

In the evening, Liu Zhou, who left some money for Liu Bei's mother and son, took Liu Jian back to Zhuo County.

On the way, Liu Jian rarely acted coquettishly to Liu Zhou: "Father, A Bei lost his father when he was young, and there is only an orphan mother in his family who has no livelihood. It is very pitiful. Father, you see, A Bei is three years older than me, but thinner than me. After a full circle, Father can't just leave him alone!"

Liu Zhou didn't expect that Liu Jian's visit to Lousang Village actually had an affair with Liu Bei.

Being able to say this is enough to prove that this child is a kind-hearted and benevolent person, and Liu Zhou is very pleased.

"Hehe, your child is going with Weifu. Although Abei is young, he is smart and sincere. He is a good seedling. You don't need to worry about Weifu wanting to help him and your aunt."

Liu Jian tugged at Liu Zhou's sleeve and said, "Since my father cares about him, why don't you discuss it with my aunt and bring Brother Abei to our house? After all, my aunt is only a woman, so I'm afraid I can't teach Brother Abei well, so my father will take care of my aunt. Discipline A Bei, in the future A Bei brother will be just like the boy, very promising."

"This one……"

Liu Zhou didn't expect Liu Jian to come up with such an idea for himself, and he was very embarrassed.

"It's very rare for you to be able to say such a truth at such a young age, but it's hard for your mother to say it."

"Father is a dignified man, isn't he afraid of women?"

"Bastard talk!"

Liu Zhou stretched out his hand angrily and slapped Liu Jian on the back of the head again: "Your father and I are a man of eight feet, how can you be a fearful person? Isn't it just to let Abei come to our house to study scriptures? I will bring him back, your mother What can you do to me?"

Liu Jian raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Zhou suspiciously.

"What kind of eyes do you have? Don't believe me?"

"Believe me! Father is my number one warrior!"

Liu Zhou was very pleased with what he heard, and said triumphantly: "Don't use words indiscriminately, I won't beat your mother, what a brave man."

Liu Jian estimated in his heart that as long as his father could make up his mind to go back and act like a baby with his mother, the matter of letting Liu Bei come to live in his house was basically the same.

In this world, apart from parents and children, what kind of relationship can be stronger than the brotherhood that grew up together?
