    "Master, it's time to get up."

    He vaguely heard someone talking in his ear, Meng Zezhi said in a daze, "Nursing, what time is it?"

    "It's two o'clock in the morning (5:30), you forgot, yes, everyone in the house will go to Huguo Temple to pray for the soldiers today, so we have to get up early to pack our things." He said while saying He slipped off Meng Zezhi's thin quilt.

    Hearing this, Meng Zezhi's drowsiness instantly disappeared: "Then get up."

    With the help of He Shi, he got up and got out of bed, and then took the Yang Zhi handed over by the maid Ningdong, bit it soft, brushed his teeth with medicinal powder, took a towel and wiped his face finely. After doing this, he sat down on the stool Up, let the He Shi help him with his hair.

    Looking at the distorted figure in the bronze mirror, Meng Ze knew that he was wandering in the sky.

    The predecessor was Zhao Yian, whose name was Yunzhong. He was born in Guangde in four years.

    In the fifteenth year of Guangde, Song Guogong took command of the Tatars, accompanied by his son Zhao Yijing, and later became a general from the fourth rank.

    In the 20th year of Guangde, the war in the north was at an early break. Song Guogong first returned to the court, leaving Zhao Yijing to deal with follow-up matters. At that time, the struggle for succession between the DPRK and China had become intensified. Because the second prince was framed and framed, the eldest prince was involved in the fraud case of the imperial examination, and was disliked and abandoned by the emperor, and completely lost his qualification to inherit the throne.

    The eldest prince was unwilling, and in a fit of rage, he colluded with the Tartars to assassinate Zhao Yijing, who was about to return to Beijing, by the Yellow River.

    Although Song Guogong was a pure minister, he couldn't bear Zhao Yijing's accompaniment to the second prince, and his contacts were quite deep. After a hundred years of the Duke of Song, Zhao Yijing was the master of the family, and the Duke of Song's mansion naturally became the power of the second prince.

    The first prince only thought that killing Zhao Yijing would undoubtedly cut off an arm of the second prince.

    He fell, and the second prince should not think about it any better.

    In the winter of the 21st year of Guangde, Song Guogong's wife Xiao Shi adopted Zhao Yi'an as his heir.

    In the twenty-fourth year of Guangde, Song Guogong died of illness. Three years later, Zhao Yi'an, who had kept his filial piety, descended the ranks and became the Marquis of Jingjiang.

    In the twenty-ninth year of Guangde, Zhao Yian, who was only twenty-five years old, was ranked first in Liuyuan and Jinshi in the first examination (in succession in the county examination, the government examination, the academy examination, the township examination, the general examination, and the palace examination), ranking first in history. He was first conferred a bachelor's degree as a lecturer from the Fifth Grade Hanlin Academy (the first scholar was a scholar from the Sixth Grade Hanlin Academy), and later served as a councilor of the Secretary of General Affairs, Tongzhi, the Minister of Salt Transport, Taichang Temple Shaoqing, Dali Temple Minister, and the Ministry of Punishment. Shangshu, Ministry of Personnel Shangshu, Wenyuan Pavilion scholar, tired official to the cabinet chief assistant.

    Zhao Yi'an served as an official for more than 50 years and assisted the kings of three dynasties. When he died, the emperor quit the dynasty for one day, entered the Duke of Wei, descended the rank of three generations, and presented it to Shangzhu Kingdom, Taishi, posthumous Wenzheng, and enjoyed the Taimiao.

    Internally, Zhao Yian was the patriarch of the three dynasties; externally, he was also quite famous.

    Zhao Yian has presided over the literary world for decades. His poetry is elegant and elegant, and he is a representative of the landscape poetry school. Also works seal script, official script. Author of "Huaiyuetang Draft", "Huaiyuetang Continuation Draft", "Yunzhong Poetry" and so on.

    Descendants commented on Zhao Yian: "Virtue is Gao Kui, and the article is Han Meng. He is loyal and diligent in three generations, and he is committed to one-heartedness. Merit is applied to the world and people don't know it.

    Commentary on "Yangshi": Since Yangxing, the ministers who lead the gentry with meticulous writing have only allowed Zhonggong.

    If Zhao Yian's life could really be as rough in the first half of his life as planned in the book of life and death, and the second half of his life would be smooth sailing and his name would be left in the history, Meng Zezhi would not appear here.

    The accident did not happen to Zhao Yijing.

    In the nineteenth year of Guangde, a small incident happened in Linghe Village, which is located on the edge of the Yellow River. Anyway, it came alive.

    No one else would know that Xing Xiaoya from Linghe Village was indeed dead, and it was Xing Xiaoya, a 21st century outdoor anchor who came to life.

    The sober Xing Xiaoya faced the eccentric grandparents, the selfish and greedy big family, the filial father, the cowardly mother, and the skinny younger brothers and sisters, with high fighting spirit.

    The external appearance is pitiful, the internal transformation of Baozi's parents, the challenge of grandparents and grandparents, the disrepute of the design of the big house, and finally the successful separation of the family.

    Then he went into the mountains to dig ginseng, picked wild grapes to make wine, made cakes, sold recipes, opened restaurants, and cooperated with wealthy businessmen to produce soap... and finally made a fortune.

    In the 20th year of Guangde, Xing Xiaoya picked up Zhao Yijing, who was seriously injured and dying by the Yellow River.

    The sobered Zhao Yijing lost his memory and settled down in the Xing family. Xing Xiaoya coveted Zhao Yijing's masculinity, Zhao Yijing was amazed at Xing Xiaoya's intelligence, and the two fell in love over time.

    After a series of hardships, Zhao Yijing, who had recovered his memory, took Xing Xiaoya back to the capital, and despite the objection of Mrs. Xiao, the wife of Song Guogong, insisted on marrying Xing Xiaoya as his wife. The two sides could not argue, but Song Guogong allowed Xing Xiaoya to enter the door on the grounds that he had to report his life-saving grace.

    At that time, because Zhao Yijing returned to the capital alive, it was natural that his predecessor Zhao Yian would not be able to inherit the palace. Although without the inclination of the resources of the state government, Zhao Yian still had difficulty getting admitted as a scholar.

    On the other hand, Mrs. Xiao Shi, Mrs. of Song Guogong, originally wanted her niece next door to be her daughter-in-law. After all, with Song Guogong's defeat of the Tatars, the limelight of the Guogong's mansion was already enough. The in-laws should attract the jealousy of the royal family.

    After all, it is more suitable to be the niece of Mrs. Xiao, the wife of Song Guogong. First, it’s more appropriate to add a kiss to the family; secondly, although the power of the Xiao family is far inferior to that of the Duke’s Mansion, it is also a family of farming and education that has been passed down for two hundred years. With Xiao's cousin, the official worshipped the wine from the fourth-grade Guozijian, but he couldn't bear the honesty, and the old disciples were all over the world.

    In addition, people at that time paid attention to the age difference between men and women, so how could Xiao Shi think that he was born in a remote country, behaved vulgarly, was a philistine, and dared to have a cowardly Xing Xiaoya with a man without a match or employment.

    Even if that man is her son.

    Even in her opinion, Xing Xiaoya had ulterior motives in approaching his son from the very beginning.

    The Xiao family has her own way of sparring with Xing Xiaoya, copying scriptures, kneeling in the ancestral hall, learning etiquette...how to do it.

    In this way, Xing Xiaoya had an accidental miscarriage, and the news was spread by someone with a heart. Not only was the Xiao family admitted to the Buddhist hall by the public relations of Song Guo, but she also became synonymous with a poisonous woman among ordinary people.

    A year later, Xiao's cousin was sent to Qingzhou, which coincided with the once-in-a-century drought in Qingzhou. At this time, the Second Prince's Party and the newly-rising Seventh Prince's Party were fighting fiercely. The disaster relief silver taels were robbed, leading to a riot among the refugees, and eight members of Xiao's cousin's family were unfortunately killed.

    When the news came out, the government and the opposition were shaken. Zhao Yijing took the initiative to ask Ying to put down the rebellion in the name of avenging his uncle, and Emperor Guangde agreed.

    Half a year later, the rebellion subsided, and Zhao Yijing, the head coach, was promoted two ranks in a row, and the official worship was the third-rank General Zhaoyong.

    Song Guogong sympathized with Xiao's bereavement and released her from the Buddhist hall.

    A relative passed away, her husband was disappointed, and her son was eccentric. At this time, Xiao Shi was in a daze, completely immersed in grief, and out of state.

    In the winter of the 23rd year of Guangde, Xing Xiaoya, who was pregnant, deliberately woke up early, waiting outside Xiao's door to wait for Xiao's wake up to greet her.

    But he didn't want Mr. Xiao to stay up all night because he thought about the sad things, and only fell asleep in the early morning.

    The people around Xiao were not used to Xing Xiaoya, and they did not want to wake up Xiao, who had finally fallen asleep. They only politely persuaded her. Seeing that she insisted on waiting for Xiao to wake up, she had to endure the disgust. Let her pretend.

    Unexpectedly, Xing Xiaoya, who had been standing in Xiao's yard for less than an hour, had another miscarriage as soon as she returned.

    As a matter of course, the blame fell on Xiao Shi again. She came out of the Buddhist temple on her front feet, and was sent to the family temple by Song Guogong on her back feet.

    After another half a year, Xing Xiaoya forwarded a jade pendant given to her by Xing's father to Zhao Yijing.

    Zhao Yijing wore this jade pendant to participate in Emperor Guangde's birthday banquet. At the banquet, his uncle Zheng Guo recognized that this jade pendant was originally a gift of Emperor Guangde's late Empress Qian.

    The incident immediately shocked Emperor Guangde, but it turned out that Emperor Guangde and Empress Xiaogong Qian were childhood sweethearts and young couples. When Emperor Guangde succeeded to the throne, Oara seized the opportunity to invade and once invaded the capital. During the war, Empress Xiaogong Qian, who was eight months pregnant, was protecting Emperor Guangde comprehensively. Despite Emperor Guangde's objection, she was knocked unconscious. After Emperor Guangde, he let a small number of elite guards take Emperor Guangde to escape from the path, and together with Emperor Guangde's stand-in, he led a large army to lead away the main force of Oara.

    Later, the large army was annihilated by the main force of Oara, and Empress Xiaogong Qian also disappeared.

    According to Xing's father and Xing's mother, Empress Xiaogong Qian should have fled to the area of ​​Shaanxi, because they had picked up Xing Xiaoya on the edge of the Yellow River, and there was a female corpse lying beside Xing Xiaoya.

    In this way, the excited Emperor Guangde named Xing Xiaoya the eldest princess of the Ning Kingdom, his father Xing the Marquis of Huai'an, and his mother Xing's wife.

    Afterwards, Emperor Guangde, who felt guilty, remembered that Xing Xiaoya had been miscarried twice by the Xiao family, and in a fit of rage, he wanted to behead her.

    Thanks to Xing Xiaoya's begging and Zhao Yijing's kneeling in the Qianqing Palace's foreign minister, Emperor Guangde was able to open up and spare Xiao's life, but ordered the Song Guogong, who was sick in bed, to abandon Xiao's family. They sent someone to beat her 30 big boards and expelled her from the capital.

    When the news came out, everyone in the world praised Princess Ning for her bodhisattva heart, and Zhao Yijing was commendable for her filial piety.

    However, in fact, Xing Xiaoya's first miscarriage had nothing to do with the Xiao family. The main reason was that she was young, and the body was malnourished since she was a child.

    The second time was purely after Xing Xiaoya had already had the omens of miscarriage and deliberately framed the Xiao family in order to help Zhao Yijing drive the Xiao family out of Song Guogong's residence.

    The reason is very simple, Zhao Yijing is not Xiao's biological son.

    The current Duke of Song, Zhao Lingwu, was born in a poor family, his father died early, and he grew up with his mother alone.

    After becoming an adult, under the arrangement of his mother, Zhao Lingwu married Su Niang, the girl next door he liked, as his wife.

    Three years later, when the war broke out, Zhao Lingwu and Su Niang were lost. Seeing that his mother's high fever persisted, but he couldn't afford any medicine, he couldn't help feeling anxious. It happened that the Xiao family was recruiting a son-in-law for their daughter. Zhao Lingwu gritted his teeth, lied that he had not married yet, and knocked on the door of the Xiao family.

    For Zhao Lingwu's good looks, Xiao's father allowed him to bring his mother into the family.

    Not long after, the Xiao family joined the rebel army, and Zhao Lingwu also joined the army under the arrangement of Xiao's father.

    Zhao Lingwu is indeed a bit of a skill, but within a year, he became prosperous in the army, and he stepped on the Xiao family in a blink of an eye.

    Seeing this, Xiao's father took the initiative to ask for a betrothal gift from Zhao Lingwu in order to win over Zhao Lingwu, which was regarded as eliminating his status as a son-in-law.

    Eight years later, when the world was settled, Zhao Lingwu transformed himself and became the founding hero of the Dayang Dynasty.

    It was at the time of the reward for meritorious deeds that Su Niang came to the door after going through all kinds of difficulties and dangers.

    Zhao Lingwu, who thought Su Niang had long since died, was ecstatic, but after being excited, he was only worried.

    In the previous dynasty, it was taboo to suspend a wife and remarry, according to the law, ninety canes and two years in prison. Since the new dynasty was just established, the laws of the previous dynasty were temporarily followed.

    But the new emperor also said that on the day he ascended the throne, officials who break the law are guilty of one more crime.

    If this matter spreads out, even if the title he is about to get can't fly, I'm afraid it will be down one or two tiers.

    How could this make him reconciled?

    What Su Niang could do, she could only agree to Zhao Lingwu's demands with tears.

    Zhao Lingwu felt more and more guilty when he saw it.

    In this way, Su Niang became Zhao Lingwu's actual outer chamber.

    Two years later, Su Niang and Xiao Shi gave birth to a child at the same time. Xiao Shi had a difficult labor. The child was dying from birth. The doctor said that he was afraid that he would not survive that night.

    The ghosts and gods are messed up, Zhao Lingwu moved his mind that should not be moved.

    He exchanged Xiao's child with Su Niang's child.

    Sure enough, the child born by Xiao's did not survive that night.

    After another three years, Su Niang, who was eager to take advantage of the opportunity of Xiao's to take the child to the street to see the lanterns, wanted to take a look at the child from a distance.

    The result was that the more she looked at it, the more heartbroken she became, and the more unwilling she became. When she heard the child calling Xiao's mother, she couldn't help but want to hug the child.

    It was just that before she could meet the child, she was recognized as a trafficker by Xiao's servants.

    In panic, Su Niang ran away and was finally beaten to death by a servant in the street.

    Zhao Yijing has been with the old lady since he was a child. After the old lady died, he also reached the age of moving out of the inner courtyard, and he was taught by Zhao Lingwu himself. It is normal to not see the Xiao family for ten days and a half months on weekdays. So the relationship between him and Xiao Shi is really not deep.

    So Zhao Yijing, who accidentally learned the truth from the drunk Zhao Lingwu, hated the Xiao family and the Xiao family.

    Especially after Xing Xiaoya's first miscarriage, this hatred reached its peak, and the death of Xiao's cousin's family of eight was his handwriting.

    I just didn't expect that Zhao Lingwu felt the same guilt for the Xiao family. Once this happened, he just sent the Xiao family to the temple.

    But in the end, Xing Xiaoya's wish was fulfilled

    Zhao Yian, the predecessor who learned the news, rushed to Caishikou and left the capital with the seriously injured Xiao Shi.

    To say that Zhao Yian was a concubine, his aunt died not long after giving birth to him, why should he be so filial to the Xiao family?

    Just because he had a serious illness when he was six years old, the doctor he invited was helpless, and his wet nurse had nowhere to go, so he approached Mrs. Xiao.

    Seeing the nurse's blushing eyes, Mrs. Xiao didn't know why, but she remembered her son who was taken away by the old lady when she was a child, and who saved others by herself. Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but feel compassion. Then he sent someone to take the famous letter to the palace to invite a doctor to come back.

    In this way, Zhao Yi'an survived, and there was another nurse who brainwashed him from time to time. After going back and forth, Xiao Shi became his most beloved person.

    Since then, Zhao Yian's daily morning and evening has never been interrupted.

    Because of this, in the original plot, after Zhao Yijing's death, the Xiao family chose Zhao Yian as his heir.

    Zhao Yian was talented and intelligent, and vaguely realized that Zhao Yijing and his wife were not as filial and filial as they had shown, so he simply took the Xiao family away to Guizhou and kept his name incognito.

    But he didn't want that Zhao Yijing never wanted to let go of the Xiao family. Because Zhao Yian took away the Xiao family, he even hated Zhao Yian.

    After arriving in Guizhou, Zhao Yian had exhausted all the coils he brought out. He had no skills, so he could only earn some money by metabolizing letters on the street.

    Although life was tight, it was better than stability.

    Seeing that Xiao's spirit is getting better day by day, at this moment, Zhao Yijing sent someone to interrupt Zhao Yian's right hand...

    After that, no matter what Zhao Yian did or where he moved, Zhao Yijing would always send someone to make trouble.

    Because of those thirty boards, Xiao Shi's body suffered from sequelae. And because of lack of money for treatment, minor illnesses turned into serious illnesses. Three years later, Xiao Shi died with hatred.

    After Xiao Shi died, Zhao Yian's tense nerves were broken instantly. Two months later, a serious illness took him away.

    At that time, Zhao Yijing, who had kept his filial piety, did not surrender to inherit the Duke of Song. Because of Xing Xiaoya, Emperor Guangde finally passed the throne to the second prince supported by Zhao Yijing.

    Four years later, Xing Xiaoya, who had taken care of her health, gave birth to triplets to Zhao Yijing in one breath, two sons and a daughter, envy others.

    Because Zhao Yijing did not take concubines or prostitutes, and only guarded Xing Xiaoya all his life, the love story between the two was even written into a novel and passed down by the people of the time, which became another popular drama in later generations.

    The author has something to say:
