Chapter 2: Li Jia Si Lang

Chapter 2: Li Jia Si Lang
The first thing Li Nian saw when she woke up was a thin gauze curtain. She sat up and felt a dull pain in her head, especially at the back of her head. Looking at the surroundings, it didn't look like a hospital at all. Instead, it looked like the crew of a costume drama.

I should be in an antique-style building, sitting on a wooden bed with frames on three sides, and the quilt covering me should be called brocade or something? In short, it's very high-end.

It’s hard to tell what style the furnishings in the room are, but it’s obvious that the materials and workmanship are very exquisite. Some of the ornaments look like colored sculptures, a bit like Tang Sancai?
Could it be that Wang Ya arranged a high-end sanatorium for me? This doesn't seem possible.
Looking at what I was wearing, I saw clothes made of an unknown material, but clearly not outerwear. They looked like the white pajamas that ancient people wore to sleep in TV dramas. Could they be a new style of hospital gown?
Where exactly is this?

He only remembered that he had a car accident in Wang Ya's car on the way home from get off work and lost consciousness, but where is this place now?

The back of my head began to ache again. I touched my head which was still wrapped in a bandage, got up from the bed and opened the door. My legs and feet felt a little weak, and the sunlight was slightly dazzling on my face. I stretched out my hand to block it for a while before I got used to the brightness.

This is a small courtyard. There is no trace of modern society anywhere. Could it be that I have traveled through time?
Even if the crew was filming, they couldn't make it so seamless and without any modern features.

At this time, a little girl carrying medicine in the yard saw Li Nian standing at the door in a daze, and immediately said in surprise: "Silang, you are awake!"

"Are you an extra?"

"What are you talking about, Silang?" The little girl was very confused when she heard the terms that were obviously incomprehensible.

Li Nian looked at the pretty girl in a long dress in front of him, who looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. He had no intention of chatting with her. He just wanted to find out where this place was.

Outside the small courtyard is a large courtyard with all wooden buildings. There is no reinforced concrete structure, only a wall, which should be made of bricks and stones.

Many people saluted him with their arms crossed.

"Shiro"

"Shiro"

There were no cameras, no objects that should be on a film crew, and no director shouting "cut". There were only pavilions, flower bouquets, plants, pools, and rockery.

Did he really travel through time?
"Shiro?"

A man wearing a brown robe and a black gauze hat stood in front of Li Yuanhui, "Did you wake up Silang?"

"Brother?"

Looking at the gentle man in front of him, Li Nian blurted out subconsciously.

That's not right. Who is this person? How could he know him? Why does he feel strangely close to him and afraid of him?
Then some memories suddenly came back to him, giving him a splitting headache, as if a slide show was being played at thirty-two times the speed.

So much so that he couldn't even control his body and fell directly to the ground.

I heard several anxious calls, "Shiro? Shiro?"

"Go get a doctor quickly"

Then he lost consciousness again and passed out.

When I woke up again, it was already a few days later.

Some remaining memories of the original owner of this body seemed to appear out of nowhere in Li Nian's mind.

But it is not complete, some are clearer and some are very blurry.

All he knew now was that the original owner had been injured in a fall from a horse and had a head injury. He had the same surname as him, and his name was Li Yuanhui. He was fourteen years old and was the fourth son of the Li family.

He currently lives in a neighborhood in the south of Luoyang, the eastern capital.

The head of the Li family, that is, the father of the original owner, is named Li Yuan. He is from the Longxi Li family and is currently working outside. The one who has the final say in the family is the eldest son, that is, Li Yuanhui's eldest brother, named Li Xiaoyan.

He has two older brothers, both of whom are away with their father. He is the youngest legitimate son in the family. In addition, he has several illegitimate brothers and sisters, and an older sister born to the same mother who is already married.

My mother has passed away. Her surname was Dou.

There are also some trivial memories about relatives, such as the delicious mutton soup from a restaurant called Chenji in Luoyang West Market, the maid who has been responsible for taking care of him is called Tan'er, and several guards at home have taught him riding and shooting.
There are too many things he can't remember, and he can only remember them when he meets some people or encounters some things.

They come, the security.

Although I have seen the original source of this sentence in a novel before, and it doesn't seem to be used to describe the current situation, but the literal meaning is probably this.

If he cannot return to modern society, he will always be Li Yuanhui.

Or rather, he couldn't quite tell which one was him at the moment. Was the modern Li Nian just an experience in his dream?

No one could tell him the answer. After calmly accepting the reality of time travel, Li Yuanhui began to eagerly understand what dynasty he was in, his background, and some of his family's circumstances.

Only by flipping through books and sorting out some of the original owner's memories did I sort out some of the things that I urgently needed to know.

Now is the eleventh year of Tiansheng in Dayan.

And this Great Yan is not any of the Eastern, Western, Southern, Northern, Forward and Later Yan during the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

It is the real Great Yan that unifies the world.

The Li family has a large collection of books, and with some fragments of memories from the original owner, Li Yuanhui gradually figured out the historical context of this time and space.

Xia, Shang and Western Zhou, the Eastern Zhou was divided into two periods, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and was unified by the Qin and Han dynasties.

There is nothing wrong with the above history.

The turning point occurred during the Three Kingdoms period.

In history, the emperor Cao Mao, Duke of Gaogui, who should have been killed in the street, did not lead his confidants to die and shed blood on the streets as in history.

Instead, he used the excuse of discussing the abdication issue to kill Sima Zhao and Jia Chong together in the palace, thus completing a comeback from a desperate situation.

After regaining power, Cao Mao worked hard to govern the country and completed the historical task that should have been accomplished by the Sima family, unifying the Three Kingdoms.

Cao Wei also became the third unified dynasty after the Qin and Han dynasties, with a territory so vast that it was almost as prosperous as the Sui and Tang dynasties.

In terms of culture and governance, Cao Mao improved paper, introduced movable type printing, promoted many scholars from poor families, and reduced taxes and levies. During his reign, the Wei Dynasty not only conquered Wu and destroyed Shu, but also reached its peak of national strength, which is known in history as the "Wei Xuan Restoration."

In Li Yuanhui's view, Emperor Xuan of Wei, Cao Mao, was undoubtedly a member of the army of time travelers.

This can be seen from the poems and writings he left behind as well as his style of doing things.

However, human power is limited, and even time travelers cannot solve the deadlock of the dynasty cycle.

The reign of Cao Wei came to an end more than 200 years after it unified the Three Kingdoms. Aristocratic families were in power, powerful clans and wealthy people were everywhere, land was annexed, and refugees were everywhere.

In order to balance the aristocratic families, the penultimate emperor of the Wei Dynasty, Emperor Ling of Wei, Cao Jun, trusted eunuchs and appointed relatives by marriage. Then the script of the late Eastern Han Dynasty was repeated again.

The land was filled with smoke of war, the princes were fighting each other, and the people were living in misery.

At this time, the Murong Xianbei, who rose in Liaodong, took advantage of the situation under the leadership of the powerful man Murong Yi, and accomplished a great feat that was later accomplished by the Yuan Dynasty. They unified the Central Plains for the first time as a Hu people.

The Murong family was a group of Xianbei people who were deeply influenced by Han culture. After entering the Central Plains, they chose to cooperate with the aristocratic families. This was one of the reasons why the Murong family was able to quickly unify the world.

And now, Murong Ying, the third emperor of Great Yan, is in power, with the reign title Tiansheng. It has only been a few decades since the fall of Great Wei.

Speaking of the current Tiansheng Emperor Murong Ying, even if you only learn history from short videos, it is hard not to think of the famous Ten Sages of the Internet Temple, Guangshen.
The operations performed by these two people are simply on par with each other and it is difficult to tell who is better.

Repair the canal, start the imperial examination, build the Eastern Capital
Also, it is now the period of the second eastern expedition to Goguryeo.

The original owner's father, called Aye in this era, was in the army and seemed to be in charge of supervising the transportation of food and fodder.

If we roughly calculate the time, this period is probably around 500 or 600 AD in history? The end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty?
Comparing the two, there are great discrepancies in history from the end of the Han Dynasty to the present. There are many people who should have been famous in later generations but have never been heard of, but there are still many names that are still well-known.

For example, Xie An, who served as the Grand Tutor of the Wei Dynasty, was still a model of a famous official, but his fame and achievements were not as good as those of Wang Biaozhi of the Langya Wang family of the same period.

There are also many people whose names are not mentioned, such as Liu Laozhi, Liu Yu, Xiao Daocheng, Tuoba Tao, Chen Qingzhi and Fu Jian. However, they appear in the Book of Wei as the chieftains of rebellion in Guanzhong, and the general who suppressed them is called Wang Meng, with the courtesy name Jinglue.
Xiao Yan also appeared and became the Governor of Yizhou and General of the Western Expedition of the Wei Dynasty, and he did quite well.

Things like this seem to be true, but are not.

Such a situation is very unfriendly to time travelers.

It's like a river that is changing its course, and the direction is unpredictable.

But there is one thing Li Yuanhui can be sure of.

The world is going to be in chaos again.
