On December 17, the second year of Chongzhen, the east wing of Liufu, Yuancheng County, Daming Prefecture.

This is an antique spacious room with carved beams and painted buildings, luxurious decoration, red windows and red curtains, and bright red paper-cuts on the windows and screens.

On the desk, two candlesticks in the shape of geese, the red candles have burned to the end...

Liu Mingyu woke up from his dream sleep, opened his eyes and looked at the room. Seeing that nothing had changed, he sighed deeply.

Time flies so fast, and it has been almost half a year since I knew it.

Liu Mingyu was a soul-piercing man, from a later self-employed person to the eldest son of Liu Jinxian, the rich man in Yuancheng County, Daming Prefecture in the second year of Chongzhen.

Liu Jinxian's eldest son is also named Liu Mingyu. He has been stupid since childhood and is a famous fool. Although he is already seventeen years old, he can't read a basket of words.

Liu Mingyu carried a system with him, but this system was a bit tricky. After the binding was successful, there was no follow-up. He neither posted a task to him nor told him how to operate it.

After more than half a year of confusion, he got married yesterday.

At this time, there was a woman sleeping beside him. No, it was Liu Mingyu's young wife who just got married yesterday.

The wife's surname is Yang and her name is Xianxian.

Speaking of which, Yang Xianxian was also from an official family. Her father was named Yang Shaozhong. He was granted the same Jinshi in the 26th year of Wanli. He was appointed as the Censor of the Yanfadao of Lianghuai. However, he later offended Wei Zhongxian and died tragically in the imperial prison of the Jinyiwei.

Yang Xianxian was born to Yang Shao's wife Tang's wife. Although she is considered a legitimate daughter, she has three brothers on her. These three brothers are really not good. As soon as her father died, he drove his stepmother and sister out of the house. The three half-brothers drove Yang Xianxian and her mother Tang out of the house, but because she fell in love with Tang's dowry.

The Tang family was not of high status, and her father was a minor official from Yuancheng County.

In desperation, Yang Xianxian had to join her uncle Tang Xiangui with her mother Tang.

However, Tang Xiangui is not a good thing. Seeing that his niece looks good, she married Liu Jinxian, a silly son of Yuancheng County, with a betrothal gift of 8,000 taels of silver.

Although Liu Mingyu didn't know how much wealth Liu Jinxian had, he could spend 8,000 taels of silver to marry a wife for his stupid son. I think it was not too bad.

At least, he doesn't have to do anything and can eat comfortably and wait for death.

However, the problem is that even if Liu Mingyu is not a history expert, he knows that it is already the second year of Chongzhen.

More than two months ago, the Jiannu from Hudi Pass suddenly rushed to the capital and succeeded. Jiannu's army was at the city of tens of thousands of troops, and the Ming army, which had more than 200,000 elite soldiers and generals, was afraid of the enemy.

As a result, only tens of thousands of Jiannu attacked cities and villages around the capital, burned, killed, looted, and were unscrupulous.

Is this over?

No, this is actually just the beginning.

In the following decade, droughts, locust plagues, waterlogging, hail, plagues, and endless natural and man-made disasters forced the farmers to destroy their families, and eventually rose up in order to survive.

And Liu Minghui will be the first to be affected by landlords like him. Their mansions will be burned out, and their wives and daughters will be taken away, and they will be tragically ravaged and tragic.

The peasant army led by Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others swept across Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, Hebei (Northern Zhili), Hubei, Sichuan, and killed people and blood flowed into rivers...

This is the late Ming Dynasty, this is the darkest era, an era of interweaving corpses, mountains of blood, sea of ​​blood, and fire, and an era of being as cheap as an ants.

"My husband, are you awake?"

Just as Liu Ming was thinking a lot, a soft and glutinous voice came.

Liu Mingyu felt a little guilty and did not dare to look directly into the eyes of the bride Yang Xianxian, lowered his head and said "Yeah".

Yang Xianxian lowered her head, dared not look directly at Liu Mingyu, and took the clothes to change clothes for Liu Mingyu...

After finishing his dressing, Yang Xianxian still lowered her head and tied up Liu Mingyu's hair with a comb.

The ancients said that starting a family and starting a career, once they get married, they will become adults.

For some reason, Liu Mingyu enjoyed this feeling a little. Xuan's spacious room, beautiful daughter-in-law, and kind-hearted maid, if he had a few more traits, he would be a playboy.

"hiss……"

I don’t know what Yang Xianxian was thinking, but before I knew it, Liu Mingyu’s hair hurt a little when he was pulled.

When Yang Xianxian heard Liu Mingyu shouting in pain, he was frightened: "My husband, forgive me, slave..." Seeing Yang Xianxian's approaching crying, Liu Mingyu waved his hand and said, "It's okay, let's continue!" "Yes!" As the sun rose higher and higher, Liu Mingyu was also a little curious: "My daughter-in-law, it's time to go to worship tea!"

Yang Xianxian's face was blushing, but she didn't know how to explain to Liu Mingyu.

Looking at Yang Xianxian's gaze dodging, Liu Mingyu became even more confused.

Fortunately, Yan'er, a maid from the room, came over to help Yang Xianxian: "Son-in-law, I can't go to worship tea yet..."

"Why?"

"Because... my son-in-law was unable to drink yesterday!"

Liu Mingyu has not adapted to the identity of this era and is not used to the concept of this era.

"Dongdong"...

The sound of knocking on the door sounded, and Yang Xianxian's face changed drastically. She grabbed Liu Mingyu's arm nervously: "Good, my husband, we can't go to worship tea yet!"

Looking at the flawless square scarf, Liu Mingyu seemed to understand it vaguely.

The evil feudal era.

The knocks outside the door were getting louder and louder.
