The seventh year of the Tianqi reign, which corresponds to November 28, 1627.
Emperor Tianqi, Zhu Youxiao, died on September 30, and the throne had been passed to his younger brother, Prince Xin, Zhu Youjian, for two months.
In a secluded village outside Beijing, Zhu Youjian rarely showed a relaxed smile.
Thinking about how he had spent two months finally bringing down the treacherous minister Wei Zhongxian, he couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.
He believed he had done the absolutely right thing.
To purge the court and the country, Wei Zhongxian had to die.
Zhu Youjian never imagined that one day he would become emperor.
Therefore, he didn't know what it would take to be a qualified emperor.
He never received this kind of education growing up.
This throne was handed to him by his elder brother Zhu Youxiao before his death, so Zhu Youjian could only act according to his own ideas.
Just as Zhu Youjian was savoring the tea in his hand, a dazzling white light suddenly flashed in the sky above the manor.
Immediately afterwards, with a loud "boom," a figure crashed into the lake from the air, creating a large splash.
Upon seeing this, the eunuch Wang Chengen immediately shouted, "Assassins! Assassins! Quickly protect His Majesty!"
In an instant, a large number of Imperial Guards dressed in flying fish robes poured into the manor, and one group protected Zhu Youjian behind them.
One team went into the lake to check the situation.
A short while later, Luo Yangxing, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, bowed and came before Zhu Youjian to report.
"Your Majesty, we have captured an assassin dressed in strange attire in the lake. Judging from his clothing, he is not a citizen of our Great Ming. Should we execute him on the spot?"
"Wearing strange clothes?" Zhu Youjian raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.
He paid no attention to the assassin Luo Yangxing mentioned.
Because he had just clearly seen that this person appeared out of thin air from that dazzling white light in the sky.
He didn't believe that an assassin could have such miraculous skills.
If assassins could appear out of thin air, wouldn't they be able to kill whoever they wanted?
"I'll go take a look," Zhu Youjian said.
Upon hearing this, the eunuch Wang Chengen and the commander Luo Yangxing simultaneously tried to stop him, saying, "Your Majesty, you mustn't... This assassin's origins are unknown. What if you go and something dangerous happens?"
"It's nothing. Commander Luo, didn't you say he was already unconscious?"
"Besides, with so many of your Imperial Guards here, how could he possibly harm me?"
With that, Zhu Youjian ignored them and strode toward the assassins who had been pulled from the lake by the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
When Zhu Youjian approached, he indeed saw a person lying there with extremely short hair and clothes that were completely different from those of the Ming Dynasty.
He was also carrying a strange backpack.
Judging from his appearance, he looks to be around twenty-one or twenty-two.
Zhu Youjian examined him for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so he ordered, "Take him away and settle him properly in this manor. Notify me as soon as he wakes up."
"Yes!" Luo Yangxing, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, quickly agreed, although he didn't know why His Majesty the Emperor hadn't arrested the "assassin" in front of him and imprisoned him, but instead placed him in this manor.
However, as a subject, he knew he shouldn't ask questions he shouldn't.

Inside the room, Gao Qingyun had changed her clothes and was lying on the bed.
He was breathing rapidly, and his forehead was covered in sweat, as if he were having a nightmare.
"Oh no!" Suddenly, Gao Qingyun sat up in bed and shouted.
His memory is still stuck on the scene of his tricycle overturning and falling off a cliff when he entered the mountain village.
Gasping for breath, Gao Qingyun could clearly feel that he was still alive.
He was about to take a look at the situation in front of him when he found that everything in front of him was blurry and he couldn't see anything clearly.
"This..." Faced with this situation, Gao Qingyun's first thought was whether he had been in a car accident and injured his eyes.
This is no small problem. If it can't be cured, he'll be blind for the rest of his life.
Just as Gao Qingyun was feeling flustered, a clear, ethereal voice suddenly rang in her mind.
"The Master Teacher System has been activated and is currently being bound to the system."
"System binding successful."
"Host: Gao Qingyun".
Age: 22 years old.
Occupation: Volunteer teacher.
"Students: 0"
"Physical condition: Permanent visual impairment. (Can be cured by teaching 100 students.)"
Reputation: 0.
"The system shop is not yet open and requires 1000 reputation points."
Gao Qingyun was stunned as he listened to the system's voice in his mind. He never expected that a car accident would awaken something like the legendary system.
At the same time, when he saw the system's description of his physical condition, including permanent eye disability, he couldn't help but feel a pang of shock.
Permanent eye damage means that his condition cannot be cured even in a hospital.
However, what relieved him was that it was noted later that he only needed to teach 100 students to be cured.
It can be considered a case of finding a glimmer of hope after a period of despair.
"100 students?" Gao Qingyun murmured to himself.
He remembers that the place where he came to teach was a village in northern China.
The information provided indicated that many students here did not have teachers, so it shouldn't be too difficult to find 100 students.
I just don't know what level of instruction is considered sufficient when the system says it teaches students.
"At least there's still some hope," Gao Qingyun said with a wry smile.
Now that he has lost his sight, he seems unable to do much, but the appearance of the system has at least given him some hope.
The sound of Gao Qingyun waking up immediately alerted the guards who were standing outside the room.
Upon hearing Gao Qingyun's voice, they immediately went to inform Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Youjian.
Upon receiving the news, Zhu Youjian rushed over immediately.
"Squeak!"
The door opened, and the first to enter the room were Luo Yangxing and his group of Imperial Guards.
After all, as the emperor's personal guards, Zhu Youjian had to ensure his safety when he met a stranger who was an "assassin".
Hearing the door open and the footsteps of several people entering the room, Gao Qingyun instinctively looked up.
But all that could be seen before them was darkness.
With a smile on his face, he said, "Are you villagers from Dahe Village? My name is Gao Qingyun, and I'm a teacher who came here to teach."
"Your village chief should have received the notification from above, right?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Yangxing, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, immediately glared at him and shouted, "You audacious commoner, how dare you speak like that? Do you know who you are standing in front of?"
"Hurry up and kneel down."
