Steel Dynasty - Chapter 1

[Chapter 1 Your Highness, Your Highness]

seemed to have slept for a century. When he woke up in a daze, Xiao Ming had a splitting headache. What he saw was the white gauze curtain and the room carved with red lacquer wood.

“Aren’t you dead?” Xiao Ming muttered to himself, and the scene of the laboratory explosion seemed to be frozen in front of him.

Sitting up, the purple embroidered brocade quilt slipped off, and he was wearing a white undershirt and cloth pants similar to those in costume dramas.

Strange, what is this?

He propped himself up and wanted to get out of bed, but a white and slender hand made his heart skip a beat. This was definitely not his hand.

In panic, he raised his hand to touch his facial features, and his heart felt cold. He was not him!

“Your Highness, why are you up?”

A delicate voice came, and then a girl in a green dress came in from the outside with a respectful expression.

“Pothos?” I said this name naturally, and a series of memories suddenly erupted like a volcano.

In an instant, he already understood his identity.

His current name is also Xiao Ming, but this Xiao Ming is the current seventh prince, and he is located in a place called Dayu Kingdom.

The history of this world before the Three Kingdoms was basically the same as the one he was familiar with, but the history after that was a mess, and now he didn’t know which dynasty the Great Yu Kingdom was equivalent to.

If we have to compare, we can only say that it is the scientific and technological living standards of the Ming Dynasty in the 17th century and the Tang and Song Dynasties.

As for the rest of the world, he didn’t know. After all, this was a place with limited information.

After traveling through time, Xiao Ming had to accept this fact.

Fortunately, he seems to be a prince and has his own fiefdom.

Unfortunately, his fiefdom seems to be the most barren, and it is not far away from the capital Chang’an.

And the most terrible thing is that outside Cangzhou in the northernmost part of the fiefdom is the vast grassland of barbarians. It can be said that his fiefdom may be occupied by barbarians at any time.

Not only that, the current emperor of Chongqing, Xiao Wenxuan, is old, but the prince is weak and may be deposed at any time. This basically means that the position of crown prince is unresolved.

It is precisely because of this that the princes fight openly and secretly, trying to kill each other. Although he is in a remote fiefdom, he is still a prince after all and cannot escape this fate.

The reason why he was sent to such a distant place was naturally because he didn’t like the emperor.

At the same age, he was driven to this place at the age of thirteen. In the past five years, Xiao Wenxuan has never had an edict asking him to go back to visit relatives.

The sixth prince, who is one month older than him, is still staying in the capital city of Chang’an. The ministers have repeatedly advised the sixth prince to become a vassal, but the emperor just doesn’t agree.

In addition to the sixth prince, the prince, the second prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince were all in Chang’an. There was only one fifth prince who had the same vassal status as him, but his Shu land was much richer than his.

After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the reason why he was treated so harshly was because his mother did not have any background in the noble family.

The other princes and princesses are more or less related by blood to the five surnames and Qiwang of Dayu today.

“If you don’t like it, don’t like it. It saves you the trouble of having to recognize your father. You can be happy in the fiefdom.”

He said this casually, but Xiao Ming’s life in the fiefdom was very sad.

Not to mention the lack of supplies in the fiefdom and the poor livelihood of the people, the important thing is that these supplies are still in the hands of the local wealthy families.

These wealthy families dominated the local area, and there were even reports that the common people only knew about the wealthy families and did not know the King of Qi.

Xiao Ming is ignorant and naturally does not understand these dangers, but he clearly understands that they have similar interests. These wealthy people are obedient dogs, but if their interests are contrary, they are man-eating tigers.

After figuring out the current basic situation, Xiao Ming sighed. He seemed to be living in dire straits now.

But when he thought of the reason for his time travel, he suddenly felt a glimmer of hope.

At the moment of the explosion in the laboratory, the experimental technology crystal seemed to hit him directly, and when he was asleep, he always felt that the crystal seemed to be in his consciousness.

This technology crystal is a kind of energy crystal, which is said to come from prehistoric civilization. During the experiment, not only a large amount of black technology was discovered, but the researchers also injected all kinds of knowledge of contemporary mankind from ancient times to the present into it.

The purpose of this experiment is to perfectly integrate human consciousness with the technology crystal to create a civilization maker. From the secrets he learned, he learned that once the technology crystal is fused, he can fully master the technology library in the technology crystal. .

In addition, people who have integrated technological crystals can also transmit knowledge to others. This method of knowledge transmission, similar to inherited memory, can allow others to master technological knowledge to a limited extent, allowing a civilization to rise rapidly.

With excitement in his heart, Xiao Ming felt the technological crystal in his mind, and the huge amount of knowledge was instantly suppressed like a mountain.

Every scientific and technological knowledge from ancient times to the present, all-encompassing literary works, the manufacturing of every industrial product, the production of every material, and even advanced black technology.

“Civilization maker, you’ve made a profit, you’ve made a profit.” Xiao Ming, who was still a little self-pitying about his dilapidated fiefdom, suddenly became excited.

As the name suggests, a civilization maker is a person who can build a civilization from scratch. This function is very suitable for him now.

Now his fiefdom is completely impoverished. With the technology crystal, he can develop various tools to improve productivity.

Using these tools, he can control a large amount of resources, and then truly control the fiefdom in his hands, otherwise these wealthy families will be a hidden danger after all.

With a clear goal in mind, Xiao Ming giggled.

“Your Highness, Your Highness?”

Xiao Ming’s silly smile made the maid named Luluo frightened. In the past two days, King Qi fell seriously ill. If he got sick, none of these servants would be able to survive. Although King Qi did not He is favored, but he is still a prince after all.

Thinking of this, Luluo felt sad in her heart and couldn’t help but sob in a low voice, “Father, mother, my daughter is sorry for you and can’t fulfill her filial piety to you…”

Xiao Ming, who was immersed in his own fantasy, was disturbed by Luluo’s crying.

He came back to his senses and looked at his personal maid, who was eighteen years old and extremely handsome.

In his memory, his two maids, Luluo and Aster, were given to him by begging his mother, Concubine Zhen, a few days ago. The purpose is self-evident, as this boy has been harboring bad intentions since he was a child.

But so far, Xiao Ming seems to have not touched this maid.

It’s not that Xiao Ming is Liu Xiahui, it’s just that it was less than ten days since Luluo and Aster entered Prince Qi’s palace, and he died before he had time to accept it.

“Why are you crying? I’m not dead.”

Xiao Ming knew what Lu Luo was worried about. Although Lu Luo had only been in the mansion for ten days, Lu Luo’s timid character was very clear.

Luluo was so frightened that she immediately stopped crying and said in a voice like a mosquito, “Slave, I think Your Highness is suffering from hysteria.”

Hysteria means neurosis and mental problems. In Dayu, there is also a saying of possession by ghosts and gods.

Xiao Ming rolled his eyes at Luluo and said, “What are you thinking about? If you have this time, why don’t you let me check your body.”

“A physical examination? Your Highness, what is a physical examination?” Luluo opened her big eyes and blinked. asked in confusion.

The former King of Qi, Xiao Ming, was timid and had a surly temperament, which was one of the reasons why the emperor disliked him.

However, Xiao Ming did not intend to imitate his predecessor’s character. There was no need. Who made him the emperor of the land?

Moreover, Xiao Ming has always been free-spirited, bold and unruly, so he couldn’t bear to play a person with the opposite personality.

Now that he knew that his relationship with Lu Luo was as close as Jia Baoyu and Xi Ren, he could only secretly rejoice in this era.

The career of an engineering dog as a monk for more than 20 years can finally come to an end in this world.

“Examination of the body means looking, hearing, asking, and observing the physiological structure.” Xiao Ming said with a bad smile.

Luluo burst into tears and smiled, “When will His Highness be able to treat people? I understand this, but what is this physiological structure?”
