In December of the fifth year of Hongwu.
Ying Tianfu.
"The country will win! The country will win!"
"Xu... Qian'er!"
Several war horses stopped in front of the Duke of Wei's mansion.
A middle-aged man held a boy in his arms and dismounted.
"From now on, this is your home!"
The middle-aged man pointed at the mansion in front of him and smiled at the boy.
The boy was only ten years old, but he was as skinny as a stick. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that it was caused by not having enough to eat for a long time.
At this time, three gorgeously dressed women with two children appeared at the gate.
"master!"
"father!"
"Father!"
"You came out just in time. Let me introduce you to you. This is Yang Xuan, my close disciple!"
The middle-aged man is none other than the first general of the Ming Dynasty, Duke Xu Da of Wei.
The woman and child in front of him are his family members.
"Yang Xuan has met three master wives, junior sisters, and junior brothers."
Yang Xuan bowed his hands.
He was picked up by Xu Da, who was returning from the Northern Expedition a few days ago. Because of his natural supernatural power, he has a calm and wise mind that belies his age.
So Xu Da was delighted to see Liexin and took advantage of the situation to accept him as a closed disciple.
Snapped!
Suddenly, Xu Da slapped Yang Xuan on the back of the head.
"Boy, you are one year younger than my daughter!"
Yang Xuan was stunned, he didn't think about it.
He is a time traveler, having traveled through the womb, so he subconsciously puts himself into the thinking of an adult.
Seeing this, the three women also covered their mouths and chuckled.
"Yang Xuan has met senior sister." Yang Xuan scratched his head, a little embarrassed, and saluted again.
"Junior brother, there is no need to be polite, please get up!" the girl said with a smile.
This little junior brother is quite interesting.
Then, Xu Da introduced everyone to Yang Xuan, the Xie family, the Sun family, the Jia family, Xu Miaoyun, and the Xu Yungong siblings, which helped him initially integrate into the family.
At night, the moon and stars are sparse.
The entire Duke of Wei's mansion was bustling with excitement.
Yang Xuan was wearing new clothes and eating delicious food. The three mistresses looked at Yang Xuan with their eyes full of love.
And senior sister Xu Miaoyun kept picking up food for this junior brother.
They had already learned about Yang Xuan's experience from Xu Da's mouth. While feeling distressed, they wanted to treat him better.
Yang Xuan was born in troubled times, with parents, a younger brother and a younger sister.
But in troubled times, how can ordinary people survive?
Within a few years, he could only watch his family in despair.
Although he comes from the future, what can a child less than five years old do?
Living is a luxury!
That day, he became an orphan again.
He doesn't know much about history (emphasis is, troubled times, less than five years old, doesn't understand history, all he knows is some common sense), and he doesn't know where he should go in this huge world.
He could only go with the flow. During this period, he was close to death countless times, and he also saw through people's hearts, and his heart gradually closed.
Until he met Xu Da, he asked himself with a smile: "Boy, I am Xu Da, are you willing to become my teacher?"
Later, he remembered that Xu Da was smiling happily that day.
Since following Xu Da, his closed heart began to open up.
After finishing the meal, Yang Xuan felt more satisfied than ever before. Looking at the people who were all looking at him, he lowered his head in embarrassment. He was worried that he would be disliked by others.
Now, he is in a strange environment and is in a sensitive period internally.
"I've been hungry for too long!" he explained in a low voice.
No one laughed after hearing these somewhat restrained words.
Mrs. Xie and the other three ladies had quietly wiped away their tears. They had experienced troubled times and could best understand Yang Xuan's current mood.
Xu Miaoyun patted her chest, with seriousness written all over her face: "Junior brother, don't worry, you will never be hungry again. If you want to eat anything, just tell me, senior sister."
"Thank you, thank you!" A warm current surged through Yang Xuan's heart.
He thought he would never forget this night.
…
That night, Yang Xuan slept very comfortably and at ease.
On the other side, Xu Da was coaxing his wife.
"Master, tell me, why is this child's life so miserable!"
Xie's eyes were red from crying. She was also a mother, so she felt sorry for Yang Xuan.
"Okay, from now on, we will treat him like our own child." Xu Da comforted.
"Um."
…
The next morning, as soon as Yang Xuan got up, there was a maid washing him, which he was not used to.
After cleaning himself up, Yang Xuan went to greet his teacher Xu Da and his master's wife.
After breakfast, Xu Da told Yang Xuan that in the next half month, he only needed to take good care of himself and get familiar with the environment.
He's just too skinny.
To say that he also looks very good-looking, but long-term hunger has made him what he is today.
Under the leadership of the housekeeper, Yang Xuan became familiar with the Duke of Wei's mansion and also learned about the rules of the mansion.
I have to admit that the Duke of Wei's mansion is really too big.
It can't be completed in one day.
Regarding Yang Xuan's sigh, the steward was also proud of it. He smiled and said: "Where are we now? Mochou Lake on the bank of the Qinhuai River also belongs to the Duke's Mansion."
"This is a reward from His Majesty."
The butler cupped his hands in the direction of the palace, then raised his chin and said.
He is happy to tell Yang Xuan these words. Don't think that you can sit back and relax after becoming the disciple of the Duke.
If you want to be worthy of this status, you still need to work hard.
Yang Xuan naturally understands that if he wants to gain the respect of others, he must show his own abilities and let others recognize him.
"Thank you for informing me!" Yang Xuan said seriously.
Seeing Yang Xuan's sincere attitude, the housekeeper nodded secretly.
It is indeed good to know how to advance and retreat.
Later, the housekeeper took Yang Xuan to familiarize himself with the martial arts arena in the mansion.
This thing can be said to be standard equipment in the homes of military commanders.
The day passed quickly, and Yang Xuan gained some experience.
In the next few days, Yang Xuan was familiar with the Duke's Mansion.
But the person responsible for taking him became senior sister Xu Miaoyun.
In the past few days, Yang Xuan felt like he was in a dream.
Eat well, wear warm clothes, open your eyes every day, and no longer have to think about how to get through today.
Yang Xuan cherishes his current life very much. He approached Xu Da and said that he did not need to rest for such a long time and could arrange something for him to do.
His physique is very special and he has extremely strong vitality. Within a few days, he has almost recovered, except that he is still so thin.
Regarding this, Xu Da also knew what Yang Xuan was thinking.
He told him that he would find someone to teach him how to read and write.
Then teach him how to march and fight.
He attaches great importance to Yang Xuan as a disciple.
He wants to train Yang Xuan into the next Chang Yuchun.
It was he and Chang Yuchun who took the lead in regaining most of the capital in the past.
It's a pity that in the second year of Hongwu, Chang Yuchun died suddenly on his way home.
This is a huge loss for the entire Ming Dynasty.
…
At the same time, in the palace.
