Longevity starts with learning

Chapter 21 The Chu State has been peaceful and prosperous for 700 years.

"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 inspection 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 is completed and a hundred households transferred from the county are in place. This day is possible. 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 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 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 also 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 able people and people with lofty ideals turned the tide and tried their best for the country, so that the great Chu Dynasty could continue to this day. .

But after looking 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 nearly 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, and a continuation of nearly seven hundred years, which is a bit like a far-fetched story.

In the thousands of years of history in the previous life, there were so many kings, generals, and heroes, but there were only a few national fortunes for three or four hundred years.

Not to mention that the national fortune for nearly seven hundred years was still peaceful and without any twists and turns, which is even more fantastic than a fairy tale.

Moreover, according to the history books, the world was not dominated by the Great Chu. There were many countries around, and their national strength and territory were not inferior to the Great Chu. However, for more than four hundred years, the Great Chu and the surrounding countries had always lived in harmony, and even wars had never occurred.

The Great Chu was established for nearly seven hundred years. The wars recorded in the history books, except for the wars at the founding of the country, seemed to be only the wars with the barbarians.

And the barbarians were not foreign enemies in the true sense. According to the history books, they were probably equivalent to the native foreign races of the Chinese civilization in the previous life. They lived in deep mountains and bad waters, and their cultural customs were completely different from those of the Chu people.

However, the Great Chu was established for nearly 700 years, and most of the so-called barbarians have become history.

According to the history books, the Great Chu had 700 years of good weather, peace and prosperity, and a long-lasting national fortune.

"I can't figure it out..."

Chu Mu shook his head. After coming to this world, although he didn't come into contact with many things, there were more and more things that he couldn't figure out.

Seven hundred years of national fortune, peace and prosperity, twelve emperors, and an average reign of nearly 60 years...

This Great Chu is probably a long-lived saint monarch from generation to generation, which is even more fairy-tale than a fairy tale.

This era is really magical!
