"It's a thousand miles away..."
Chu Mu put his sword back into its sheath and stood there. In his mind, the few times he had swung the sword just now also appeared in his mind.
The first cut was a miniscule fluctuation.
The second, third, and fourth swords are also at a very small distance.
Compared with before, there has been great progress and great gains.
But Chu Muque felt keenly that it was so small that it would be very difficult to completely eliminate it.
After thinking for only a moment, Chu Mu suppressed his thoughts. He was very satisfied with such progress.
The food must be eaten one bite at a time, and the road must be walked step by step.
It would be better for him not to think too much.
Looking up at the foggy sky, Chu Mu tightened his clothes, stepped forward, and walked towards the room.
As soon as he entered the room and put down his saber, Chu Mu subconsciously picked up the patrol armor hanging on the wall. As soon as he got it in his hand, Chu Mu realized that he seemed to be resting today...
According to the inspection station's system, there are four days off in January. The specific four days off depends on the arrangements of each team.
But after Chu Mu joined the company, he discovered that the system... is always just a system, and the actual situation depends on the arrangements from above.
It has been more than a month since Chu Mu joined the inspection office. This is the first time he has a break. This time he can rest only because the expansion of the inspection office has been completed and a hundred households transferred from the county have arrived. This day has come to pass. rest time.
"It's rare..."
Chu Mu shook his head and hung the armor back on the wall. Just as he was about to go out, he seemed to notice something, but his steps suddenly stopped.
Chu Mu looked towards the corner of the yard and saw a puppy huddled up, whining from time to time.
"Where did the wild dog come from?"
Chu Mu looked around again, and finally fixed his gaze on the small gap under the wall on one side of the courtyard. Obviously, this bastard probably got in through this hole.
Judging from the way this little bastard was shivering from the cold, he was probably abandoned by someone, or perhaps lost.
"I just happened to have a dog to look after my home."
Chu Mu took a look at his yard and suddenly felt that his idea was really good.
Patting the snowflakes on the puppy's body, Chu Mu immediately lifted the puppy up and walked quickly into the room. The fire in the room flickered and the heat surged. The shivering puppy seemed to feel a lot more comfortable. .
The puppy huddled up and lay quietly in front of Chu Mu's feet. He moved from time to time, but he looked cute and tight.
"Get you something to eat."
Chu Mu chuckled, walked into the kitchen, picked up a steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth, heated up the leftovers, poured it into a rice bowl, and brought it to Gouzizi.
The puppy glanced at Chu Mu timidly, then looked around again, then put his head in the bowl and started eating.
Chu Mu glanced at the snowflakes that seemed to be flying outside the courtyard, and his original intention of going for a stroll in the town faded a lot.
He walked to the charcoal fire and sat down, picked up the book and read it slowly.
If it was said that he only studied for literacy before, but after nearly a month of enrollment, Chu Mu's thoughts have gradually changed a lot.
Reading can be said to be the easiest thing to do to make people feel at ease and focused, and undivided concentration can also increase the "spiritual brilliance". For him, this is undoubtedly a good thing at both ends.
As usual, time passed quickly without letting go of the book. About half an hour passed before Chu Mu came back to his senses from the world in the book.
He has read the four enlightenment books countless times. Although there are still many words he does not recognize, the meaning system of the words is similar to that of Chinese characters, but it does not hinder Chu Mu from understanding the meaning of the books.
What he is reading now is a history book that he bought at a bookstore a few days ago.
It mainly talks about the history of the Chu Dynasty. This is the most important reason why Chu Mu bought this book to read even though he was not fully literate.
After all, what could be better for him to understand this era than a history book.
The book records that Da Chu has been a country for 693 years and has experienced twelve emperors. The current emperor is the twelfth emperor of Da Chu, whose reign name is Jingwu. This year, he is Jingwu. Year twenty-eight.
According to what Chu Mu originally thought, a dynasty that has been in existence for nearly seven hundred years must have experienced countless changes, and countless capable people with lofty ideals turned the tide and tried their best for the country, so that the Chu Dynasty could continue to this day. .
But after flipping through this history book, I found that except for the changes in the situation and the number of heads of people when the founding emperor came to the throne, the banknotes that Chu Mu suspected were made by the founding emperor of Chu.
The mines are state-owned and strictly regulated. This rule was only set after the founding of the Chu Kingdom.
After that, the Eleven Emperors were like a running account, which could be described as extremely bland.
There has been no fluctuation in the succession of imperial power, no trace of policy reforms, no common powerful ministers in Qing history, and no trace of nobles usurping the throne and rebelling.
Occasionally, there were several civil uprisings, like ants shaking a tree. They were suppressed by thunder as soon as they took off.
Reading through the history books, it can be said that the Chu Kingdom has been in harmony for the past seven hundred years, with the world being stable and the monarch and his ministers being harmonious.
Is this normal?
It seems quite normal, but obviously, normality is the biggest abnormality.
Although Chu Mu doesn't know much about history, thousands of years of separation and reunification in previous lives have clearly demonstrated the truth that there is never any long-term solution. No matter how good the policy system is, no matter how prosperous the national destiny is, there will always be consequences. Changes as time passes.
After all, the human heart is unpredictable.
A dynasty, a world, a set of rules, lasting for nearly seven hundred years, it feels a bit like talking about it all day and night.
In the thousands of years of history in the previous life, there were only a few princes, generals, heroes, and national fortunes in three or four hundred years.
Not to mention that the country's destiny in the past seven hundred years has been peaceful and without any twists and turns. This is simply more dreamy than a fairy tale.
Moreover, according to historical records, the world is not dominated by the Great Chu, and there are many neighboring countries. Their national power and territory are not inferior to that of the Great Chu. However, for more than four hundred years, the Great Chu and the surrounding countries have been in constant conflict. They lived in harmony and there was no war.
Da Chu was founded nearly 700 years ago. There are wars recorded in the history books. Apart from the wars at the founding of the country, it seems that the only wars against the barbarians were.
The barbarians are not foreign enemies in the true sense. According to historical records, they are probably equivalent to the local alien races of the Chinese civilization in previous generations. They live in deep mountains and harsh waters, and their cultural customs are completely different from those of the Chu people.
However, since the founding of Da Chu nearly seven hundred years ago, most of the so-called barbarians have become history.
According to historical records, for seven hundred years in Chu, the weather was good, the country was peaceful and the people were safe, and the country's fortunes continued.
"I can't figure it out..."
Chu Mu shook his head. After coming to this world, although he had not been exposed to many things, there were more and more things that he could not figure out.
Seven hundred years of national destiny, peace and prosperity for the country, twelve emperors, with an average reign of nearly sixty years...
This great Chu, if not the sage who has lived forever for generations, would be even more of a fairy tale than a fairy tale.
This era is really magical!
