Memory is unreliable, and forgetting can be beautiful.
Hu Xiaotian has no attachment to everything in the past. He doesn't even bother to recall it. His past life was not a good one, so he would rather forget it in this life.
He finally understood that the true meaning of life is to enjoy life. He no longer has any ideals or ambitions. He just wants to be a rich man with no worries about food and clothing in this world, squander a little money every day, and then find a handsome and beautiful girl.
When a human woman gets married and has children, it is best to have two children, a girl and a boy. When the daughter gets married and the son gets married, he starts to enjoy his life. On a warm afternoon, with a loyal old yellow dog,
Sitting in the garden filled with flowers, bathing in the sunshine, brewing a pot of good tea, playing two or three games of chess, surrounded by children and grandchildren, living a leisurely and ordinary life.
Originally, he should have been able to realize this wish easily, because his father was Hu Buwei, the Minister of Household Affairs of Dakang. In Hu Xiaotian's past memory, this position was equivalent to the Minister of Finance. Now he is a third-rank official in Dakang.
He holds great financial power in Dakang and has won the trust of the Dakang royal family. After two generations of emperors, his status has always been as stable as Mount Tai.
As the only son of an important minister of the imperial court, Hu Xiaotian was the only son of three generations, so he was naturally regarded as the apple of his eye by the Hu family. Unfortunately, there are also regrets of one kind or another in this world. The germination of Hu Xiaotian's consciousness started just half a year ago, last October.
On the fifteenth day of the 15th day, there was a natural phenomenon, with a red moon in the sky, and the century-old iron tree in front of Liubei Pavilion in the back garden of Shangshu Mansion bloomed that night. Almost at the same moment, the second-generation official who had been mute for 16 years and had dementia suddenly appeared.
Sanity was restored.
The first thing Hu Xiaotian remembered after waking up was that he still had two operations to perform. Before that, he had been working on the operating table for thirty-two hours continuously. Hu Tian died on the operating table due to excessive exhaustion.
After crossing the long river of time and space and wandering around the three thousand worlds, his consciousness finally settled in the body of this idiot in the House of Hubu Shangshufu in Dakang.
His age magically turned sixteen, and his name also had a small character added. From that day on, Hu Tian became Hu Xiaotian, and the twenty-eight-year-old ideology was also integrated into this empty body.
Fortunately, his appearance did not change much, he just became a little younger and more immature. That is, from this day on, he decided to start enjoying life and live it relaxedly and comfortably. However, nine times out of ten, life will not be as expected.
If you can't forget your memories, you can't get rid of your worries. It didn't take long for Hu Xiaotian to discover that being a smart person may not necessarily lead a happier life than being a fool.
It was late April in the eighth year of Emperor Kangxi's reign. Hu Xiaotian was sitting lazily in the exquisite upper room. The room was decorated with carved beams and painted beams, and the interior furnishings were extremely exquisite and luxurious. Outside was a long corridor with eight vermilion columns.
The sunlight is separated. Outside the corridor, there is a square courtyard of about one acre. In the courtyard, spring flowers are bright and clusters are blooming among the bright yellow leaves. The breeze blows everywhere, and the silky vines
With the wind rippling, a faint fragrance comes quietly, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Sunlight shines through the branches and leaves, and through the window panes, leaving mottled light and shadow. Hu Xiaotian took a deep breath of the fragrance of the flowers, put his hands behind his back, and slowly walked into the light and shadow. Every plant and tree was so kind, so familiar, and remembered.
There is no difference between everything, except that he has never paid careful attention to the beautiful scenery in life in the past, let alone any enjoyment. Memories are boring and boring to him. Apart from focusing on studying medical technology, he seems to be unable to find anything.
Any pleasant highlights. Without family affection, friendship, or love, that kind of life is not worth his nostalgia.
Liang Dazhuang, a bloated man in a green hat, is a servant of the Shangshu Mansion. He was ordered to serve the young master half a year ago. He tiptoed over and when he saw Hu Xiaotian, he immediately smiled and his small eyes narrowed into two thin slits.
Hu raised his eyebrows slightly, and the creases at the corners of his eyes made this guy's big face look like an extra-large meat bun: "My congratulations to the young master, congratulations to the young master!"
The slave is himself, and the young master is naturally Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian also spent half a year to understand and adapt to all the changes that happened around him, and now he can face it calmly and cope with it with ease. This is what is often said to have completely entered the role.
He narrowed his eyes lazily. The same expression can appear on different people's faces, and it can show two completely different effects. For Liang Dazhuang, it is flattering, but for Hu Xiaotian, it is high-end, classy, and a fool's.
Of course there is no aristocratic air about him, but when this body is suddenly given the consciousness of a medical doctor, his every move becomes vivid and wise: "What's so exciting about this?" Of course, language will not be an obstacle on Hu Xiaotian's path forward.
You must know that at the age of twenty, he was already proficient in the six most representative languages in the world at that time. Dakang’s language and characters were not much different from those in the past. It was like a variant of Chinese characters, with only slight differences in pronunciation and word choice.
His writing is half literate and half white, which is no problem for him who once easily obtained a master's degree in Chinese studies.
Liang Dazhuang bowed his head and said: "Young Master, I heard that the master and his wife have just made a marriage arrangement for you!"
Hearing this, Hu Xiaotian's expression instantly became depressed and distressed. In Dakang, free love is not advocated. Parents' orders and the words of matchmakers still dominate. Although there is no freedom of love and marriage, there is still a
The advantage is that polygamy is legal in Dakang. As long as you are rich and powerful, you can marry as many wives as you want. This is an era where the strong is king. As long as you have enough strength, you can have as many wives as you want.
The land occupies resources, money, land, real estate, beauties...
It is also popular in Dakang to arrange baby-in-law marriages, and it is important to match the family. Second-generation officials like Hu Xiaotian are naturally popular. His mother had already arranged a marriage when she was three months pregnant. Her in-law Zhou Ruiyuan was once a high-ranking official in the dynasty, and the official
He worshiped the right prime minister of Dakang, the crown prince, and the Hanlin bachelor's decree. He worked with Ping Zhangshi and went to Shangzhu Kingdom. He was very prominent in Dakang for a while, and he was also a high official in the Hu family. Even if Hu Buwei held the financial power,
After all, he was only a third-rank official, but when Hu Xiaotian was two years old, people found out that the Hu boy was a fool, so they canceled the marriage without hesitation.
Of course, Hu Buwei did not dare to say anything in front of the first-rank officials of the dynasty, so he could only cancel the marriage honestly. Not only did he smile at the expense, he also had to accompany his words, but in his heart
But he hated Zhou Ruiyuan deeply. Three years ago, the East Palace Prince Long Yelin was deposed because of falling out of favor. Zhou Ruiyuan, as the crown prince's master, was inevitably implicated. Hu Buwei did not miss this opportunity to add insult to injury, and followed the courtiers to ruthlessly
The ruthless involvement in this book directly led to Zhou Ruiyuan being demoted from his post to the public, which can be regarded as a sigh of relief in his heart.
Although Hu Xiaotian's dementia is almost universally known in the capital, there is still an endless stream of people who want to marry each other. Of course, they are all lower-level officials. No one really wants to marry their daughter to a fool. They only fancy the Ministry of Household Affairs.
The power of Shangshu Hu Buwei.
Hu Buwei has been an official for many years, and of course he knows the true intentions of this group of people. Although he is good at speculation and profiteering, deep down in his heart he extremely looks down on this group of people who follow the trend and refuses them all. Although his son is stupid, he still
He could not be taken advantage of by others, coming and going, so when Hu Xiaotian was sixteen years old, his marriage was still unfinished.
Hu Buwei had originally planned to support his stupid son like this for the rest of his life. With the child's qualifications, it was obvious that he would not be able to make a great contribution to the family, but under his protection, he could at least live a safe, carefree and happy life. Hu Buwei was not without ambition.
However, no matter how ambitious you are, you have to lower your head in the face of reality.
Hu Xiaotian's sudden awakening not only surprised Hu Buwei, but also aroused the ambition deep in his heart. He quickly chose a marriage for Hu Xiaotian. The in-laws were the Jiedushi of Jiannan and Xichuan.
Doctor Lu, Secretary of the Ministry of War, Tongping Zhangshi, Yin of Xizhou, Founding Duke of Xichuan, Li Tianheng with 3,000 households in the city, although he and Li Tianheng were in the same third rank in Dakang, they were indeed feudal lords without hesitation.
He is a high official and has won the trust of the current crown prince Long Yeqing. When the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, it will be the day when Li Tianheng becomes prosperous. When you are in the court, you must be familiar with history, know how to grasp the present, and also know how to focus on the future. Hu Buwei took the initiative to propose
The marriage with the Li family was precisely for this political purpose.
In fact, Hu Buwei had already hinted in this regard. The marriage was false, but the alliance was real. The Li family has a daughter who is paralyzed and is said to be ugly. Even so, Li Tianheng would not be willing to betroth his daughter to a fool.
, but after confirming that the young master of the Hu family suddenly recovered his sanity and ability to speak, Li Tianheng finally nodded and agreed. The two families exchanged birth dates and set a wedding date. The wedding date was on the sixth day of October, less than half a year before the wedding date.
A marriage contract made Hu Xiaotian suddenly realize that his ideal of a leisurely life had become a luxury. There would be no happiness at all in marrying a wife he had never met, whose lower limbs were paralyzed, and who was said to be the most ugly girl.
Therefore, Liang Dazhuang's mention of this matter made Hu Xiaotian unhappy. He sighed and said, "It's okay not to mention it!"
Although Liang Dazhuang looks stupid, he is not stupid in mind. He is especially good at observing people's emotions, otherwise he would not be entrusted by the Hu family with the important task of becoming Hu Xiaotian's personal servant. Seeing that Hu Xiaotian was in a bad mood, Liang Dazhuang said cautiously: "Young Master,
The weather is fine today, why don't I go out with you to relax?"
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "That's fine!"
When the Master of the Ministry of Finance goes out, although there is no need for gongs and drums to clear the way, the shouting and shouting are definitely indispensable. In addition to Liang Dazhuang, there are also three servants accompanying him. These three servants are all dressed in Qingyi.
Xiaomao, walking behind Hu Xiaotian with his head held high and his chest high, showing off his power, the fox pretending to be the tiger and the dog using the human power is the most appropriate to use on this group of people. At that time, the third-rank official, the servant of Dakang's household secretary, must be worthy of a ninth-rank county magistrate.
Servants of high-ranking officials feel good about themselves.
