The Light, The Sword

Chapter 184: change

Views:

As summer passes and autumn comes, where the wind gradually rises, a bit of coolness can already be felt.

The night in Lin'an is still as hot as ever.

Although the news of the great victory of the emperor’s official family who left the imperial family to conquer Lin’an has been passed on to Lin’an city, it has been a long time. The people in Lin’an city who have reveled day and night are exhausted after all. After gradually dispersing, Lin’an city seems to be The previous order has been restored, but whether intentionally or unintentionally, you can still feel the strong sense of celebration in Lin'an City. People on the street, whether they know or not, often laugh before they say a word. Although the flow of people is still bustling as usual, but in the recent period, the streets of Lin'an have been a peaceful and peaceful scene. Even the crowded things are unavoidable when people come and go. Everyone often laughs off. There have been so many angry moments.

Bao Daren turned out from the wine shop, his feet staggered a little, he was squeezed in the crowded crowd, facing the scene of fire trees and silver blossoms in front of him, he raised his face, but vaguely felt that the moonlight was very cold. .

"History... has really changed..." Bao Daren smiled bitterly, murmured to himself through the rush of alcohol, and looked up to the sky with a confused look on his face.

Thousands of people rushed to and fro, nearby restaurants and teahouses were hawking, the streets in the distance were illuminated like the day, and the flying stars soared into the sky. The juggler maru sword was flying, reflected in the waves of West Lake, and the light and shadow were splashing. Mixed with waves of applause, it's just like a scene of prosperity, but in Bao Daren's drunken eyes, everything in front of him always feels a little illusory.

Yes, among the tens of thousands of people in this world, perhaps he is the only one who understands in his heart that such a happy scene should never appear in Lin'an, the Southern Song Dynasty under the rule of the emperor official. Walking, and a victory like the Battle of Song and Jin absolutely shouldn't appear in this piece of world in this era.

But now all of this appeared in front of him alive!

Bao Daren looked at the speechless sky, and his heart was surging, but he didn't even know whether he was crying or laughing.

Seventeen years!

It has been 17 years since he came to this era that shouldn't belong to him inexplicably.

It’s not that he had never imagined all this today, even when he had just come to this time and space that did not belong to him, and confirmed that he had truly come to an era that should belong to history for him. After a brief period of hesitation, he also had ambitions. He wanted to change his fate against the sky, rectify the rivers and mountains, and wanted to use his own insight that has surpassed more than a thousand years to reverse China's present and future decades. After a series of catastrophes, the Han and Tang Dynasties reappeared on this land, but it was only a few months later that Bao Daren finally realized how arrogant his thoughts were. There is almost no possibility of realization.

In fact, according to the words, Heaven did not care for him, Bao Daren. After an accident in his previous life, it was time to come to such a weird time and space and regain such a peculiar life. Although Bao Daren is only a frustrated scribe who has been studying hard for decades and has failed to try again and again, his family is still quite an industry, even though Bao Daren's original identity is nothing but a book of poetry and six arts. The rotten scholars in between can be regarded as worry-free, and there is no risk of freezing and starvation after examinations and studies. Even after Bao Daren has just confirmed his new identity, he still You can imagine how you can use your family’s industrial assets to realize your ambition in the future.

But I don’t know if it was due to luck, or something changed by Bao Daren’s arrival, or a ruthless deliberate play, just less than three months after Bao Daren arrived in this unfamiliar era. In Bao Daren's life, the parents who originally doted on him unexpectedly suffered such a sudden illness at the time of the prime of his life. They passed away in a few days, making Bao Daren really caught off guard.

And the change that brought a completely different turning point to Bao Daren's fate in this life, just when Bao Daren had time to recover from the grief of his parents' death in the future, it floated like this.

Bao Daren’s family is considered to be a local clan, with many clan elders and his father’s own brothers. Among them, there are quite a few unlearned, but full of quirky guys with crooked doors and ramps. , I was conceived a lot of crooked brains for the substantial estate in Bao Daren’s family very early, but Bao Daren’s parents were still there that day, and their old couple originally started from scratch, and did not have much light from the clan. On weekdays, things are very stable, and there is no room for them to take advantage of it. This makes these guys have to stop in anguish. Now Bao Daren’s parents in this life have suffered from such a sudden illness and passed away in a hurry. To have time to arrange all the affairs behind him, for these guys who have long been ill-intentioned, it is really a good time to fall from the sky, so a group of people waited for all to jump up and down, disturb the clan relatives, and link up with the government, just like that. To carve up such a huge industry.

It wasn't until this time that Bao Daren began to feel panicked. His parents in this life have been in business all their lives, and there is such a son under their knees. They have been very fond of them since childhood. He only hopes that one day he will be able to hang in the Toad Palace and make it to the Dragon Gate , Or Guangzong Yaozu, Rong Xianzu, and no longer want him to take care of this business of merchants, so almost from childhood, Bao Daren, the young master, was just locked in his study and immersed himself in studying. There is nothing other than poems, books, rituals and music, and they are completely ignorant of business matters. Even before Bao Daren crossed over, this young nerd, who had been trying to fail for a long time, only knew poems and did not understand the world, whether it was among the family members and the uncles who helped his parents run the business. , I was offended a lot by this nerd character inadvertently. Not only was his popularity not good, it could also be regarded as quite bad, so that when something really happened, no one stood up to speak for him.

After Bao Daren crossed over, although it can be said that it has been more than a thousand years of insight than anyone in this world, but after only a few months, he recovered from the initial panic. , And there is no time to change something, everything has just happened. What's more, for this kind of bizarre and inexplicable things, it is impossible to have any experience at all. Even if Bao Daren has so many novel insights, he is unlikely to be able to dissolve it so quickly. In this unfamiliar age, there is always a dreamlike feeling about everything in front of him. The first thought that comes up is instead thinking about his unrealistic grand plans.

This work is first published in the exclusive text version of No.6 Novel Network. It is not allowed to be reproduced without permission, excerpts, and more latest and fastest chapters, please visit .16 .n! And the subsequent death of his parents and parents in this life was so sudden, it really gave Bao Daren a big blow. Although he came to this time and space in just a few months, there is nothing deep about his parents. Well, even the feelings between each other can be said to be quite indifferent. However, the affection of the old couple for him can be directly felt, especially the thoughts before the death. All the ardent instructions on his children made Bao Daren feel sad. That sadness was never pretended. In a country of rituals in the Song Dynasty, his family background can be described as rich, and the funeral rituals of his parents are troublesome. , He really didn't have the mind to care about other things at all.

It wasn't until those people came to him that Bao Daren began to realize the seriousness of the matter. He also tried his best to keep the property that should belong to him, but he was helpless until he came into contact with how to deal with it. When things happened, he realized that his more than a thousand years of insight, which he had always thought about himself, was really difficult for him to act like the gang of traversers seen in the original novel in this completely unfamiliar Song Dynasty. On the contrary, it is blocked everywhere, and almost nothing can be done.

After all, although the era of his original life was said to be an information explosion, it is only possible for a few experts and scholars who specialize in the history of this period to be able to achieve complete familiarity with a specific period of history. Naturally, Bao Daren was not in this list, until he was forced to come to the door by those clan brothers, thinking about the demeanor of the traverser, turning defeat into victory and reversing the situation, only to find that he was aware of the customs and customs of this era, local customs, It can be described as a blank, and there is no understanding at all.

It is not that he has never thought of bribing officials heavily and taking the upper-level line, but it is a pity that he completely underestimated the status and power of clan power in social life at the time, and even was very lucky to run into a person who did not have much discrimination between right and wrong. Ability, but at the same time, a mediocre official who claims to be incorruptible and not tainted by Jiechen, but is considered to be a villain for selfishness, and was eventually wiped out for nothing. If the two old people had not longed for foresight, they would still help him Prepared some final emergency cash, I'm afraid Bao Daren, who was brave and fistless, had already starved to death in this strange age.

After being kicked out of the house, Bao Daren also learned from the pain, thinking that the gentleman's revenge was not too late for ten years, and he first found a way out for himself, and waited for one day to return to his hometown, and then he would take revenge and revenge. After taking the last money left by the two elders, he traveled far away to Lin'an, hoping to take the shortcut to the Great Song Dynasty Hall through the scientific examination.

In Bao Daren’s original understanding, in this age when Zhu Xi was not yet in the climate, the Song Dynasty’s scientific research was far less rigid than it was during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. There are policy theories and poetry studies. Bao Daren’s work in his previous life was related to writing, and he was no stranger to writing in classical Chinese. He also knew that he knew everything about the situation in the court and the court. The article was intended to be between the new party and the old party. It’s not difficult to choose, there are opportunities for opportunism, and I have recited a lot of amazing words. I am confident that I can get a chance to achieve my ambitions. I am determined to fight back. Coming to the capital alone, living in the inn, staying for years, staying behind closed doors, all day long, just struggling with those strategies and fictions, just waiting for the day when he became famous in one fell swoop.

It’s a pity that Bao Daren didn’t know how ridiculously wrong he was until he actually took the test. After releasing the list, Bao Daren didn’t know how wrong he was. After all, the writing habits of the time and the examiner’s appreciative standards are really not just for the layman to read a few ancient articles. You can understand that, in addition to the phonological contrast between the prose, there are also various exquisites such as the avoidance of plainness and the need to use allusions. A Bao Daren who does not belong to this era may think that the writing of the policy paper is quite quaint. , But in the eyes of the literati at the time, it is still like the vernacular. Even though the views are not lacking in considerable points, it is absolutely difficult to get into the eyes of those literati who have long been used to reading Splendid articles.

What's more, at that time, Qin Hui had already taken control of the government and began to control the door of scientific research. The way of obtaining scholars from the court gradually came into his hands. The questions asked were not for the country to obtain scholars, but only for the placement of party feathers and cultivation of students. Bao Daren This kind of poor Confucian scholar who has no roots and no way to ask for help is really normal.

At that time, Bao Daren had almost reached the end of the world. Almost all the money left by the two elders had been spent. If it were not full of confidence before, I am afraid that even the luggage carrier would have been given by the inn before the scientific expedition began. Throw it out. Although the city of Lin'an is prosperous with hundreds of workers, Bao Daren’s thin body can’t even look at the heaviest living family. That period of time can be said to be Bao Daren’s most difficult time. It was the time when the Great Song Dynasty moved to the south that it has gradually established its foundation. The prosperous and prosperous Lin'an city is really not inferior to the old Bianjing style, the street vendors sell it, and the tea and rice doctors order food in the teahouse and tavern. They all have their own unique craftsmanship, and they are by no means a job that can be done just by trying their best. Bao Daren went around in Lin'an city, but he found out that even if the poor students in previous life often practiced washing dishes and the like. He couldn't even take over the work of his life.

Under the situation that he could not think of any way, Bao Daren also wanted to imitate the storytelling and tell the ancients, show his face in the market, and show off a few stories from previous lives, hoping to earn a little bit of money for living, but he did not expect this big In Lin'an City of Song Dynasty, storytelling has been a big sight since ancient times. In that year, folk strangers still appeared in an endless stream. Not only did the storytellers talk about Gubi’s skills, but also often flickered, Feijian Xingwan, the effect is simply better than that. The special effects of later movies are even more realistic and gorgeous. Even if Bao Daren's story is fresh and exciting, the dry narrative style can hardly attract many guests at the beginning.

What's more, those storytelling and acting careers have formed their own unique rules and special turf after they matured. They kept their differences between each other, and Bao Daren, who was dumbfounded, bumped into him, even though he was performing. The level is really not very good, but the story told is really innovative, and gradually attracted some passers-by. This directly led to Bao Daren being blocked in a bad alley one night and having a good fight. If it was not in it, it happened. There was an old man who had no successor who fell in love with Bao Daren’s unintelligible but fresh stories, and put him into his own performing arts group. Maybe Bao Daren hung it silently that night. Inside the dark alley.

After this battle, Bao Daren finally put away his heart. In the face of reality, he finally understands that whether it is in the modern society thousands of years later or in the Great Song Dynasty in front of him, it is an ordinary It was so difficult for the common people to get ahead and live better. Even Bao Daren now feels that he may be more vulnerable than those who have lived in this era. After all, he feels that now He has more knowledge for thousands of years than anyone in this era, but he has yet to master any skills and credentials that are sufficient for him to survive in this era.

Therefore, in this small group of storytellers and stories, Bao Daren stayed at ease. Of course, his thinking and insights as a traverser are also destined for him at the beginning. It is impossible for him to be at ease. After joining the storyteller group with the skill of fabricating stories, he also tried to persuade the guild boss to reorganize the group and come up with some fresh marketing methods to improve the way of business. I was familiar and made a joke, because the method I came up with was something that he had already had, and a few times although it was quite a good method, he accidentally touched something he didn't understand. The interests of some small groups holding power were almost killed by people.

After several blows, Bao Daren has become more and more an alien that is not accepted by the mainstream in the guild. After Bao Daren himself finally realized the huge gap between ideals and reality, he became increasingly reticent. , Has gradually become the most deserted marginal person in this lively industry. If it weren't for his endless fresh stories, I am afraid that he would have already lived on the streets again.

Gradually, Bao Daren also learned to live with the dust, pretending to be stupid, anyway, in that era, this kind of ancient rap industry was originally the predecessor of later generations of drama. Although it is considered a craftsman, in fact, the means of making a living are similar to those Welcoming and sending off, the kiln sisters who gave birth to Zhang Wei Wei are not far behind. They are nothing more than pretending to be ugly and boasting a smile. So after Bao Daren saw it, he relied on his share. He has gained more knowledge for thousands of years, put more effort into dressing up his lines and singing, and acted as a series of stories about Bao Gong, which is not far from this era and is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It is also so popular. Gradually, Become a famous actor in this inexplicable time and space.

Originally, Bao Daren thought that he could only live like this for a lifetime, but he did not expect that there would be another turning point in his life's destiny, and it was because he played the role of Bao Qingtian, the first upright official of the ages. The well-known guy would be taken by Wan Tuyu, a stinking high traitor for thousands of years, and became a cron of the traitor who had been spurned by the world for thousands of years with Qin Hui and his wife in his time and space.

Bao Daren’s heart, which had already cooled down, was gradually warming up. After all, although Wan Suan was not a thing, at that time, he was a newly-climbed high branch, who made it clear that he was going to rise higher and higher. In Bao Daren’s view, it also seems that he can really intervene in this history, to change this Song Dynasty, which seems destined to become rich and weak, and to change this glorious page of civilization in China seems destined to be destined to be barbaric tribes. A terrible future ruthlessly trampled on.

However, at this time, Bao Daren, after having eaten all his eyes, was already a little more cautious, and did not dare to engage in recklessly. Although he had a thousand ideas in his heart, he was only first through some unobtrusive gags. The temptation, and the result obtained, is indeed as disappointing as he expected. No matter it is in the eyes of Wan Suo or anyone in this era, no one will come to listen carefully to the words of a clown or actress. His prompts won't attract any attention, even if Wan Haomao was quite close to him because he was often amused by him, and even after climbing the big tree of Qin Hui, he became the power official of the dynasty. , And also deliberately found a birth for him, but in the eyes of this man, and even all the literati and officials in the ruling and opposition parties, he has always been nothing but a harlequin who can alleviate the boring and humor, even in the right place In the heyday, some middle- and lower-level officials would even flatter and flatter him because of his close relationship with Wan Tengmao, but Bao Daren, who has already read all the favors and warmths, can still easily see through what they are hiding in. The contempt behind the smiling face.

The torrent of history seems to be so unstoppable, so Bao Daren gradually became a little desperate. He could only play his role of laughing and cursing with due diligence. He occasionally appeared as an actress who cried and laughed. The entertainer, through the mouth of not knowing which character in the play, said something that made the audience roar with laughter, but no one could understand the sour and terrible things.

Bao Daren has even begun to become numb. He has been living in the prosperous Lin'an for a long time. The life that has been truly experienced thousands of years later seems to have gradually become unreal, Bao Daren Sometimes when he dreams back at midnight, he already feels that it is just a silly and weird dream born under the charm of some ghosts and gods. He even feels that maybe he has always been such an actress, so it should be. Live in a muddle-headed manner, and die silently until the end of the day.

Therefore, even if it was due to fate, Wan Tongmao let his cronies participate in the trial of Yue Fei’s grand case of injustice. Bao Daren, who has already understood the rules of the officialdom of this era, is no longer there. Hot-blooded, I don’t dare to imagine that he has the ability to turn the tide and change everything that has long been unchangeable. All he can do is that Yue Fei leaves his last scream at the end of the dossier he deals with. , In order to leave this legendary hero thousands of years later, nothing more than a legend.

But what Bao Daren never thought was that in this bizarre second life course, he would actually have such a sudden opportunity, which would allow him to go to the palace and make him stand in the court. The narration of Yue Fei's case in front of him can allow him to participate in such a major historical event, and even allow him to witness the turning point of history with his own eyes, and it really appears before his eyes.

The opportunity is here!

This was the first thought that came out of Bao Daren that day after he walked out of the Daqing Hall!

Those memories that have been silent for many years, those ideals that have been silent for many years, were tossed from the depths of the heart so violently at that moment, and they were so lively and so intense that Bao Daren felt a little bit sore. My heart hurts!

He didn’t know why there was such a big turning point suddenly, but as Bao Daren who knew better than anyone in this era what would happen in the future, he naturally understood this turning point better for this great Song Dynasty. The entire Chinese civilization, for the historical trajectory for thousands of years to come, of course, what meaning will it have for himself.

Bao Daren, who had read a lot of this kind of novels before, did not even have the idea of stirring up the situation and changing the world.

Therefore, despite the fact that no matter how great Wan Haomao has suffered in these years, for him, he is still a benefactor with the most benevolence, but Bao Daren still chose the path he wants to take without hesitation.

Those two donation proposals were just the first steps he wanted to take.

After so many years of keeping a low profile and having a unique experience from the market to the temple, Bao Daren is no longer the little boy who first came to the noble land and didn’t understand anything. Now he already knows how to make more of that. Thousands of years of knowledge and experience have been applied to this unfamiliar and familiar era, and even Bao Daren thinks he has been able to grasp the rhythm and fire that should be.

However, what Bao Daren did not expect was that history seemed to have indeed changed from the moment Yue Fei was released from the Daqing Palace, but it was not him that dominated the ups and downs of the entire era.

From the beginning of the court meeting in the Daqing Hall that day, the emperor's official shocked the entire Song Dynasty, and even the entire world, everything was done one after another.

Facing the Golden Cavalry, who was pressured by a large army outside, there was Qin Hui, a powerful elbow officer everywhere. The emperor did not mean to hide his power and bide his time. Instead, he put on a head-on stance. First, he appointed Yue Fei. Lin'an stayed behind and made it clear that the horses and carts would not tolerate Qin Hui’s power, and then he was so determined to conquer Qin Hui’s own forces, ignorant of the weak journey that has not been rectified for several years, to follow the army of nomads who have an absolute advantage in the number of men and horses. Fight a wild battle that has hardly been seen since the founding of Song Dynasty.

At that time, even Bao Daren, who had clearly felt that the emperor official had become a little unusual, felt that this was a battle that was too risky and unsure.

But now the news of the frontline war has clearly spread to Lin'an, the celebrating crowd, and the fireworks that continue to bloom in the night sky, reminding Bao Daren all the time that the emperor official won the victory. Song, I won!

Will the time and space in front of me repeat the history that I am familiar with? !

impossible!

Now even on the streets of Lin'an, casually catching a Huangkouruzi who is ignorant of the major events of the DPRK is already full of confidence in the future of the Song Dynasty.

What's more, Bao Daren, who has long been ignorant of the political and military affairs of this era, is not considered to be ignorant. It also means that such a victory will affect the overall situation of the world and the comparison of strength between Song and Jin. .

Not long after the establishment of the Kingdom of Jin, the domestic courts were already undermined frequently, and even their ruler succeeded to the throne. They still have not had a set of system precedents that can be followed. Now Jin Wushu is leading the Jurchen clan in the Kingdom of Jin. The 200,000 Jvchen cavalry who relied on Gancheng attacked the Song Dynasty in two ways, but they were defeated by less than more, and ended in such a big defeat. It is conceivable that there must be a fierce turmoil in Jurchen in a short period of time. Inside, I'm afraid that no matter what kind of threat it will pose to the Southern Song Dynasty, even its power will inevitably shrink.

On the other hand, the emperor's official who behaved abnormally, but often achieved unexpected results, took advantage of the power of the first battle to successfully establish an image in the Song Army that even Yue Fei was unable to match for a while. It can even take advantage of this great victory to deter the small criminals in the middle of the night. Even though Qin Hui's party has become more powerful, the emperor's official family has already been in the right place, and now there is the aspiration of the people in the world, I am afraid that this will be the only one. When the emperor's official family returned to Lin'an, the Great Song Dynasty Hall would surely undergo a radical change.

Faced with such a situation, Bao Daren felt a little at a loss for a while.

For a long time, what has supported him that he feels that he is always different is nothing but his knowledge and insights that have more than thousands of years of knowledge and insights than anyone in this era, but the world in front of him is obviously completely out of it. Given the history beyond his cognition, Bao Daren really didn’t know whether all his original assumptions and all the cognitions could actually come in handy.

Bao Daren didn't know if he was the flapping butterfly in the legend, but he knew that he was definitely not the protagonist in the waves caused by this round of historical turmoil.

So he felt that he should find a place to sit down and think about it.

Think about what will happen in the future, and how should he go on his own path

"Is it even history?" Bao Daren thought, could not help but let out a soft sigh: "Is it really changed so easily?!"

"What is history?" Suddenly, he asked in a soft and soft voice, which sounded in Bao Daren's ear: "How can the servants not understand the words of officials?!"

The voice was as straight as a valley eagle, soft and beautiful, under the bright moon and breeze, it was like a whisper between lovers, and it could make people intoxicated.

But Bao Daren raised his head in horror, and in this moment, he was already shocked in a cold sweat.
