Since he was very young, Zhao Kai has often dreamed that he has become an ancient person. Living in a magnificent mansion, surrounded by a lot of servants and maids. Living a happy life with food to open your mouth and clothes to stretch your hands, no, it is a decadent life.
He once told the scene in his dream to the old grandmother who raised him by one hand, but the old grandmother didn't know what was going on and could only use feudal superstition to explain it. It is said that Zhao Kai drank Meng Po soup mixed with water when he was reincarnated, so he did not forget everything about his previous life, so he often dreamed about it.
Zhao Kai sometimes wonders: Was I the son of a feudal bureaucrat in my previous life? Looking at the splendid situation at home, the father in the dream seems to be a very rich bureaucrat, probably a corrupt official... It's so enviable!
However, what Zhao Kai yearns for most in reality is definitely not the decadent life of a feudal bureaucratic family, but the fact that in his dream he has a father who is a high official who dotes on him very much. I don’t know exactly what kind of official his father is, but I know that the servants and maids in the dream call this father “official”. And this official father dotes on him very much, to the point where he responds to his requests.
Zhao Kai sometimes thinks: Although this official is not a good official, as a father, he is definitely a good father!
In reality, Zhao Kai is a left-behind boy. When he was just born, his parents went to the Magic City to start a business - he opened two pancake stalls. The business was said to be good, he made a lot of money, and he was still near the Magic City. I bought two houses in a second-tier city, and their values later appreciated a lot. When Zhao Kai was about to graduate from junior high school, his parents planned for him to go to Shanghai to inherit the family business and continue serving pancakes to the people of Shanghai after graduating from junior high school.
But Zhao Kai was admitted to a second-rate high school in the city very confidently, and he planned to go to a third-level university before going to Shanghai to sell pancakes.
This made his parents very angry. He wanted a college degree just to spread pancakes? This is not nonsense! So they gave birth to a second child and planned to raise him well from an early age... Someone had to inherit the old Zhao family's pancake stall!
Now that the pancake stall has been succeeded, of course no one will care about Zhao Kai, an unfilial son. He lives alone in a high school in the city, and his parents don't care about anything other than paying him on time.
Zhao Kai, who lives and studies in high school, has greater freedom because of this. He can stay up late and surf the Internet, play games, and find answers to his strange dreams on the Internet.
But after searching around, I found nothing else except that the word "official" was used by people in the Song Dynasty to address the emperor. The reason for this is that the scenes in the strange dream are very blurry, and even the faces in the dream are blurry and changing all the time, so Zhao Kai doesn't have much information.
However, in the winter of 2020, when the first half of Zhao Kai's sophomore year of high school was coming to an end, his strange dreams suddenly became clearer and clearer, and they occurred more and more frequently, almost to the point where they started to appear as soon as he closed his eyelids. Come to the point. And all kinds of information also poured into his mind at the same time. Most of this information is related to the Song Dynasty, the Northern Expedition, and the Jin soldiers going south.
Probably because there was too much and too complicated information to digest, Zhao Kai had a splitting headache, and then he fainted in the dormitory. While feeling dizzy, Zhao Kai began to dream again, and this dream actually came true!
...
There was a crisp sound of "pop", and Zhao Kai felt a burning pain on his cheek again. This was him slapping his own big ear!
"Ouch, it really hurts..." Zhao Kai hurriedly covered his face and shouted, then raised his head and looked at the bronze mirror in front of him.
He has been sitting in front of this bronze mirror without thinking for several days, "self-abuse", pinching his own flesh, pulling out his beard, and now he is fanning his ears and shaving, just to get rid of the "dream" Wake up.
But I can’t wake up from this “dream”!
Because this "dream" has come true!
What appeared in the bronze mirror was still an "ancient man" sitting in an armchair. He was about twenty-four or five years old, wearing a Taoist robe, with his messy hair in a bun, and a jade hairpin inserted in it. The face of the ancient man is a bit blurry, but it can still be seen that he has delicate features, a high nose, red lips, and a flowing beard. He is clearly a handsome ancient man with a bit of immortality.
Zhao Kai took a closer look and felt that the appearance of this "ancient man" was very similar to his original appearance, except that he was much more mature and had a beard.
"He is still an ancient person... It seems that I, Zhao Kai, have really traveled through time!" Zhao Kai looked at the "ancient person" in the bronze mirror and sighed, seeming to have accepted his fate.
Suddenly, Zhao Kai's expression changed and became extremely fierce, even ferocious. He said to himself in a low and majestic voice: "Forget it, just travel through time! This is probably destiny, right? This is destiny. Give me the big responsibility!"
He waved his fists, looked a little crazy, and shouted: "I am the one chosen by God, the one who came to this end of the Northern Song Dynasty to turn the tide... I, Zhao Kai, am the chosen one. !”
Zhao Kai is now the chosen one, at least that's what he thinks!
When he thought about it, he could only use "Chosen" to explain why his soul traveled through more than 800 years and possessed the same name as himself, the third son of Song Huizong, the military governor of Jingnan and Ningjiang, and Jiangling. , Kuizhou Mu, promoted the Imperial City Secretary, Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, fell on him.
Looking at the figure in the mirror, the figure is so similar to Zhao Kai's original appearance. It is clearly Zhao Kai's previous life!
This must be because God couldn't bear the collapse of the Song Dynasty and the collapse of the Divine Continent, so it sent Zhao Kai's soul to travel through his past life to save the country and the people.
This is the legendary Chosen One, the Lord of Destiny!
Zhao Kai suddenly stood up, looked at the person in the bronze mirror, his tone was a little more crazy, he slapped his chest and shouted: "Okay, okay, okay! Now the Song Dynasty has me, China will not fall behind, the Jurchens Mongolia, stop being so arrogant...wahahahaha!"
...
"Chen Yishan, Wang Adban... Is our king really crazy? I've been going through this for several days, and I'm still crying and laughing, but I haven't seen any improvement."
Just when Zhao Kai was laughing and talking nonsense again, outside the house where he was, a woman about seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed as a woman, with extremely beautiful appearance, like a fairy, was standing there. With a sad look on his face, he asked the two people around him.
Among them was a man in his thirties, with a yellow face and a goatee dressed as a scribe. He touched his beard, frowned, shook his head and replied: "Madam, don't worry, the king looks like he is crazy, but he is definitely not true." Crazy, he must be pretending to be crazy..."
"Yes, yes, what Mr. Chen said is absolutely true. Your Majesty must be pretending to be crazy to avoid trouble!" The person who said this was a white-faced chamberlain in his late thirties, holding a whisk in his hand. As he spoke, this guy also did He made a beheading gesture and said, "The king is in a difficult situation now. If he doesn't pretend to be crazy, he will be..."
"But, why does the king want to avoid trouble?" The fairy-like woman looked puzzled, "The officials dote on the king so much and gave the entire Imperial City to the king. What trouble can happen to the king?"
"Alas," the white-faced chamberlain sighed and said, "Madam, I don't know something... The soldiers of the Jin Kingdom barbarians have already passed Zhending Mansion and are heading to Tokyo day and night. The official family is already in chaos. Fang Cun also has thoughts of inner Zen!"
"Inner Zen?" the woman asked, "To whom is Zen given?"
The yellow-faced scholar sighed again and said, "Give it to the prince! Yesterday, the official issued a decree for the prince to serve as Kaifeng pastor... There are also rumors that the official will give up the throne to the prince in the next two days. Then we went south to avoid the Jin soldiers."
"Ah... are the golden soldiers really coming?" The woman seemed frightened, paused, and then asked: "But then, what does the golden soldiers coming or not have to do with the king? It’s not like the king asked them to come, so why does the king pretend to be crazy to avoid trouble?”
The yellow-faced scholar and the white-faced chamberlain looked at each other, not knowing how to explain the "brother" relationship between Prince Yun Zhao Kai and Crown Prince Zhao Huan to Madam Zhu who had just married into the palace (the first wife of the prince during the reign of Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty was the wife of the state). When it comes to "Friends and Brothers". Zhao Kai, who was not sure whether he was pretending to be crazy or really crazy, had already strode to the door and appeared in front of three people. He stared at them and asked loudly: "Who are you? Why are you so sneaky?" Are you standing outside the door to spy on me, the chosen one?"
