Chapter 441: See Wang Mang

"Do you know that person?" Shi Lei looked at the aunt who had been following them and couldn't help but feel curious. What was this person doing with them?

Wang Zhaojun turned his head and looked at the aunt behind him carefully: "What's wrong with you?"

The aunt shook her head, and then screamed in surprise: "You, you, you, you are Wang Zhaojun."

"I wonder who you are, auntie?" Perhaps out of habit, Wang Zhaojun called this grandma "auntie" as soon as he saw her.

The aunt looked at Wang Zhaojun in shock: "You, are you really Sister Zhaojun? Why, you, you haven't changed at all?"

This old woman in her late sixties is actually a few years younger than Wang Zhaojun. But now one is an old man with wrinkles on her face, gray hair, and walks with a cane. The other is still as young as twenty-eight years old.

Youthful and beautiful. Such a strong contrast made the old woman feel quite uneasy!

"Who are you?" Wang Zhaojun really couldn't recognize who the old woman in front of him was. After all, she had been away for more than thirty years.

"I, I am Yumei!"

Wang Zhaojun suddenly realized: "Oh, Yumei! It's really you Yumei, the sister Yumei who has been with me all the time!"

After hearing this, the old woman looked at the woman in front of her who was younger and more beautiful than her granddaughter. She felt inexplicably sad.

"Yes, when you married the young master, you made a group of us sisters very envious." Yumei said and looked at Shi Lei: "My uncle has not changed at all over the years. And the young lady has not changed either. The young lady was still young back then.

I even hugged him when he was young!"

"Aunt Yumei!" Shi Yiyi greeted with a smile.

Yumei nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, sister Zhaojun, young master, and young lady, please come to our house and have a look. We haven't seen each other for thirty years."

Yumei was very enthusiastic, with a smile on her face, and she threw her crutches on the ground. She held Wang Zhaojun in one hand and Shi Yiyi in the other and headed home.

The three of them had no choice but to follow. The home was still the same home. Shi Yiyi looked confused and asked: "Aunt Yumei, I remember this place was like this thirty years ago. Why hasn't there been any change?"

Yumei found a rag and wiped several wooden stools again and again, while talking: "The world has been bad these years. In the past few years, the world was in chaos. How much food and good things in the house were confiscated by the officers and soldiers.

.My two children were also conscripted into the army. The eldest son had a bad life and died on the battlefield. Although the second son survived, he also lost an arm on the battlefield."

After polishing the two stools until they were shiny, Yumei guided her hand: "Come on, come on, sit down and chat, sit down and chat!"

"Mom and dad, please sit down!"

The two of them didn't dislike each other, so they sat down and chatted with Yumei about their daily routine.

"Grandma, I'm back!!" A young voice sounded, and a young man who looked about twenty years old came in with a bow in his arms.

Before Shi Lei and the others could ask questions, Yumei quickly introduced: "Let me introduce to you, this is my grandson, Wang Renli. Renli, please come and see me soon."

"Ah, oh!" Wang Renli seemed to be introducing an honest and honest person, and he quickly raised his hands to Shi Lei and the others and said, "Renli has met the two young ladies and met the young master!"

"You bastard! What a young lady!" Yumei stared angrily, slapped the table, and let out a roar that frightened Wang Renli.

"Did I do something wrong?"

Yumei pointed at Shi Lei and Wang Zhaojun and said, "You should call these two Grandpa Shi and Grandma Wang, and you should also call this one Aunt Shi."

"What? Grandpa? Grandma? Aunt?" Looking at the three people younger than himself, Wang Renli was completely speechless.

Then he asked, "Grandma, these three, these three elders are my relatives?"

In fact, there are many people who are younger but older. But Wang Renli's family is not a rich family. This kind of thing is not common.

It would be like that for a rich man. He would marry a concubine even after he is several decades old. But ordinary people cannot afford to raise too many children. Also, if you get pregnant and give birth to a child after a certain age, you will be laughed at.

The most important thing is to separate the family. In ordinary families, brothers will separate when they reach adulthood. There will be very little contact in the future. In this way, it is difficult to meet the elders who are older than the younger generation.

At least Wang Renli has never heard of such three elders in his family until now. But now that they have appeared, he has to think about it.

"Haha, little friend, I am in my late forties, so it's not too much for you to call me aunt!"

"Forty-eight?" Wang Renli looked at Shi Yiyi: "Does the girl think my grandmother is easy to deceive? Then you should at least put on some makeup before trying to deceive. The girl looks about twenty-eight years old."

Then he turned to look at the direct grandma: "Grandma, from the perspective of my grandson, these three people are all liars! Please make your decision!"

"Nonsense!" Grandma Yumei slapped the table again, pointing at her grandson with a trembling hand: "Kneel down!"

"grandmother!"

"I'll make you kneel down!"

Wang Renli reluctantly knelt in front of grandma. Yumei stood up and sighed and said: "Renli, grandma Wang is a few years older than me. She is also from our village. How could grandma admit her mistake?

Time has passed on my childhood memories, and I can’t remember too much, but Sister Zhaojun is the one who impressed me the most. At that time, Sister Zhaojun loved playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she was a real talented girl. I also liked to go to her home and let Sister Zhaojun teach me how to read. Read a book.

I was thirteen years old that year, and Sister Zhaojun was seventeen. She married the young master of the host family. But she never forgot us. She would often bring us delicious and fun things, as well as books, pens, ink, and paper when she came back from the city. Inkstone.

They gave birth to the young lady five years after they got married. It is exactly forty-eight years ago. The young lady was like this when she left thirty years ago. It has not changed in the past thirty years. The young master and Sister Zhaojun have also not changed in the past thirty years.

I saw three people accidentally just now, and I was shocked at the time. I didn't dare to recognize them."

"How is this possible? Who can remain unchanged for thirty years?" Wang Renli still couldn't believe it.

"Actually, thirty years ago, Sister Zhaojun was nearly fifty years old. At that time, she was still twenty-eight years old. At that time, we had all become old. There were already various legends about their immortality. Later, they became Left."

"Did you hear me clearly? You heard me clearly and you're still not polite!"

"Yes, yes!" Wang Renli hurriedly greeted Shi Lei and the others: "Ren Li has met Grandpa Shi, Grandma Wang, and Aunt Shi. It was Renli who was abrupt just now!"

"It's okay!" Wang Zhaojun waved his hand gently, out of concern for the younger generation, and continued to ask: "Did Renli go hunting just now?"

............

The conversation continued. During the conversation, Shi Lei and the others had a general understanding of the living conditions of ordinary people. Wang Mang was a talent, but he did not have the absolute strength to control everything. Then he took too big steps, causing the people's lives to become worse and worse.

The worse.

In two years, I am afraid that the people will really feel that they are in dire straits. You must know that when Xichang, a small country, was undergoing reforms, there was constant turmoil. If Shi Yiyi hadn't made a prompt decision, there would have been a lot of public dissatisfaction.

An hour later, Shi Lei and the others chose to leave under Yumei's reluctant eyes. All the way to Chang'an!

This is the capital of the Xin Dynasty, and it was also the capital of the Han Dynasty before!

In the inn, Shi Lei looked out at the palace and said softly: "I suspect that Wang Mang has an extraordinary origin, so I want to find out."

"Everyone who can become a human emperor has great luck and his origins are naturally extraordinary. For example, he is a good person in ten generations."

"Of course I'm not saying it's strange that he became the emperor, but his ideas are not what people of this era should have. He really wants to come from the future."

"From the future?"

Shi Lei nodded: "The land of China has suffered many hardships, especially after 1,800 years. A new leader emerged. He drove away the invaders and led China to gradually develop and grow. The state ownership of land is the new leader.

The slogan that everyone is equal was proposed and implemented in that period. Ordinary people should not have such ideological awareness."

"Dad, are you saying that Wang Mang comes from the same place as you?"

Shi Lei shook his head: "Probably not, but the whole society can be roughly divided into primitive society, slave society, feudal society, and later can be collectively referred to as modern society! What I mean is that he seems to be a person in modern society."

"Dad, I also want to take a look. After hearing what you said, I think Wang Mang is quite interesting."

"Husband, let's go together."

After all, the Daxin Palace is the Central Plains Palace and is extremely well guarded, but it is still of no use to Shi Lei and the others.

"Wow, the palace here is so magnificent. It's much better than my palace."

Wang Zhaojun smiled softly: "I remember that Xiao Shangshu proposed to repair the palace many times, but you yourself did not agree."

Shi Yiyi pouted: "No matter how magnificent the palace is, what's the use? If it weren't for the sake of the country's appearance, I wouldn't even bother to build an international hotel!"

"Yes, yes, you know that my daughter is a good king and loves her people like a son!"

"Of course!"

At this moment, a big light slowly flew up in the sky. Shi Yiyi's eyes widened: "Father, father, is that the human balloon you mentioned? Look, there is someone in the frame."

Shi Lei smiled slowly: "Let's go up and have a look!"

After saying that, the three of them disappeared from the spot. The hot air balloon was originally connected to the bottom with a rope, but at this moment the rope suddenly broke.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

"No, His Majesty flew away."

"Someone, come quickly, help me!"

Looking at the broken rope and the human balloon flying away, the people below panicked.

"Who are you? Why did you cut the rope? Could it be that you are here to kill me?" Wearing a dragon robe, the person on the hot air balloon is clearly Wang Mang, who is now the emperor!

"Are you Wang Mang?"

Wang Mang's eyes shrank. After all, anyone who can call the emperor's name bluntly must be coming from a bad person. But now that he is in the hands of others, it is better to be unreasonable and unnecessarily pretentious: "Yes, I am Wang Mang. Nowadays, everyone

New Emperor, I wonder what the three of you have to do with me?"

Shi Lei asked here: "Are you from the 20th century or the 21st century?"

Wang Mang's eyes widened instantly and he took a step back involuntarily. He never expected that someone would know his origins.

"I don't understand what you are talking about! If nothing happens to the three of you, please let me go. Otherwise, Daxin has millions of soldiers, and you three can't run away!"

"Don't you admit it? You're a good balloon. Who taught you that?"

"Who are you? Are you also a time traveler?" Wang Mang asked tentatively.

Shi Lei nodded: "Yes, I traveled from 2015, what about you?"

Wang Mang knew that he had been exposed, and it was useless to resist in the corner: "I traveled through time in 1989. It has been eight years since I traveled here."

Shi Lei chuckled and sat down directly: "You are really powerful, you actually overthrew the Han Dynasty, but have you ever thought about the future?"

Wang Mang nodded: "Of course I have thought about it, but unfortunately my history score is very poor. In addition to knowing that the Han Dynasty included the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was the Three Kingdoms period. So I don't know what will happen in the future."

"By the way, I remember hearing that the founder of the Eastern Han Dynasty was a man named Liu Xiu. I will issue an order to arrest the man named Liu Xiu tomorrow!"

Shi Lei was stunned for a moment, and then understood. To be honest, most people don't know much about history. Where do you believe the public's historical knowledge mainly comes from? In school textbooks, to be honest, it is just a general outline.

Most people get it through TV, novels and other channels.

So the easiest time to obtain historical knowledge is only a few key periods. Take the Tang Dynasty, the history from Li Shimin to Li Longji is very exciting.

Li Shimin, Li Zhi, Li Longji, Wu Zetian, Yang Guifei, Princess Pingyang, etc. are all wonderful. But most people will not pay attention to the history of the Tang Dynasty after the Anshi Rebellion.

The Han Dynasty was similar. There were Chu and Han fighting for hegemony before, there were three parts of the world after that, and there was the Hanwu period in the middle. These three periods are the most eye-catching.

The period of Wang Mang was slightly inferior. He rose too quickly and fell too quickly. There is nothing interesting about it. Most people who look at history only look at wars. How can they pay attention to how Wang Mang became the emperor? Anyway, in history

Only Wang Mang persuaded the Han people.

And why Wang Mang became popular in modern society? It was because of various unreasonable things that bound him to the time travellers, which led many people to understand him. But there are also many who really want to understand him.

This Wang Mang traveled through time from the 20th century to the 1980s and 1990s. It is normal for him not to know this period of history. There may also be two timelines. In Wang Mang's world, there may be no Wang Mang in history.

.But how did the Han Dynasty be divided into the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty? This is unknown!

Shi Lei chuckled: "Since you don't know this history, let me tell you!"

"In the ninth year of AD, Wang Mang persuaded the Han Dynasty and changed the name of the country to Xin. During Wang Mang's reign, the world was in chaos. In the twenty-third year of AD, the Green Forest Army invaded Chang'an. Wang Mang died in the rebellion, and the new dynasty was destroyed. Wang Mang reigned for fifteen years.

He’s sixty-seven years old!”
