“Ah, what a damn world, isn’t it, Barrett.”
“Um.”
Lockes leaned against the broken wall, looked up at the night sky, and said with no joy or sadness in his eyes.
On the eve of Zhu Yunwen being named the crown prince, the true eldest grandson of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Xiongying, came out of his tomb!
Zhu Yuanzhang: Good, good, our eldest grandson is back.
Minister: He appeared again after being dead for ten years? A ghost...
Zhu Yuanzhang: How dare you say that my eldest grandson is a ghost? I let you be a ghost, but my eldest grandson is clearly an immortal.
Military Merit: The emperor's eldest grandson is extremely capable, and he is suffocating us!
Zhu Yuanzhang: You should be thankful that our eldest grandson has returned, otherwise how could we let you breathe?
Civil servant: The emperor's eldest grandson's ability to govern the country and ensure the people's safety makes us ashamed!
Zhu Yuanzhang: All of you are not as good as my eldest grandson. Reduce your salaries. The Ming Dynasty does not support idle officials!
Zhu Di: The emperor's eldest grandson is brave and good at fighting, and he is a master in command of troops. I was still guarding the north, and he went to the west.
Zhu Yuanzhang: Fourth brother, you should be a good general in conquering the north. You are far inferior to our eldest grandson!
Zhu Yunwen: Grandfather Emperor, you mentioned before that you would make me the Crown Prince...
Zhu Yuanzhang: Yes, that's right. The crown prince must be enthroned as soon as possible. But what does it have to do with you? We must enthronize our eldest grandson, Zhu Xiongying!
Zhu Xiongying: "I've already said that when working, we should refer to our positions. Your Majesty, please call me Grandson!"
Zhang Yunxiu was in a hurry to travel back in time to become Zhang Juzheng's youngest son.
A year later, his adoptive father passed away, leaving his family devastated; two years later, the Thirteenth Prince, wielding only a boarhide armor, rose in rebellion, embarking on his path to usurp the throne; seven years later, England defeated the invincible Armored Fleet, beginning a bloody primitive accumulation of wealth.
Fierce factional strife, land annexation, border corruption, and the silver crisis are like a sword hanging over our heads.
...
However, four hundred years later, when people opened the historical records, they were surprised to find that history had inexplicably taken a different turn in the ninth year of the Wanli reign.
In that year, the first comprehensive newspaper in the Ming Dynasty, the Wanli Xinbao, was launched, deconstructing Yangming's philosophy of mind and setting off a groundbreaking intellectual revolution.
In that year, modern medical theory was proposed for the first time, and the plague problem that had plagued people for thousands of years was contained for the first time.
That year, the gentry experienced for the first time what the iron fist of macroeconomics truly meant.
From this year onward, the already precarious Wanli New Deal unexpectedly triggered a major upheaval unprecedented in a century! Inventions and discoveries of all kinds, such as the steam engine, sweet potato, and flintlock musket, emerged one after another!
From that year onward, the headstrong Wanli Emperor became obsessed with artistic creation, and Zhang Juzheng, who had been struggling to support the crumbling Ming Dynasty, suddenly realized that his support had become somewhat weak.
Once regarded as a rebellious and absurd son, he actually managed to hold up half of the Ming Dynasty!

My sister-in-law sighed, "Poor thing, she doesn't even know that Xin'er is our child, and her own daughter is just a servant in the mansion." My husband chuckled indifferently, "She loves Xin'er the most. If Xin'er insists on being adopted, she'll be reluctant to leave and will come to take care of her.

The boring days in the factory have gradually eroded Chen Zhou's enthusiasm for life.
Just when he felt he couldn't bear it anymore, a bizarre post changed his fate.
Thus began 28 years of isolated island life.
From this day on, be a free person.
Chopping wood, clearing land, making pottery, firing bricks, herding, walking the dog and petting the cat, raising a few parrots, feeding a nest of wild pigeons...
On calm days, go boating and fishing on the sea;
On a sunny day, I lie on my back in the wheat field and have a golden dream.
On a rainy day, sit quietly in the rock shelter, listen to the crackling of firewood in the fireplace, watch the water marks sliding down the window, and enjoy dinner in the dim candlelight;
Or you can greet the sunrise and bathe in the morning glow in a sunny wooden house on the hillside.
Facing the sea, spring flowers are blooming.
