Traveling through time and space and becoming a deposed prince, he just wants to survive!

Let’s talk about Li Gang, the prefect of Daming Prefecture. Since he is close to the capital, he is also aware of the changes in the court, and his eldest son Li Tian is also quite close to the second prince.

Li Tian is a man who knows how to have fun. In Daming Prefecture, every family with a daughter will warn their family members that no matter what the occasion, if they hear that the young master of Li Gang's mansion is present, no matter who they are, they must stay away from him.

Li Gang's eldest son was very perverted since he was young. When he was twelve years old, he raped his own greenhouse maid. This was not a big deal, but the young man asked the servants in the same courtyard to rape her together, and finally drowned the maid in the well in the backyard.

Only when I grew up did I realize that there was no need to do this. The girls in my own yard could have fun however they wanted.

Soon, all the maids in his courtyard were replaced by young and beautiful ones, and almost all of them had been touched by him. He did not care about the pregnant ones, and gave them some money to let them go out and make a living on their own.

Later, when Li Gang learned about this, he scolded him severely and gathered the Li family descendants who were living among the people. The number of people was as high as more than 20, not including some who committed suicide or died of illness outside.

It was considered lucky to be taken in. Although he had no official relationship with Li Tian, ​​at least he had food and clothes. Although it was not luxury, it was at least much better than wandering outside.

Some children will be sent to private schools when they grow up.

Li Gang's behavior did not change Li Tian's attitude. Instead, it made Li Tian even worse. He originally only did bad things to the maids in his own yard, but later he went straight to the streets to rob and abuse people. At one point, the Daming Mansion talked about Li Gang as if he was talking about a tiger.

It is said that the prefect had a clerk with a very beautiful daughter. Li Tian wanted to ask for her many times, but later learned that the girl had been sent to Kyoto, and the clerk also planned to leave Daming Prefecture after finishing his work this year.

How could Li Tian let go of such an extremely beautiful woman, so he went to Shangjing with his servants.

Coincidentally, one day, the second prince Zhao Wei was strolling on the street and saw Li Tian and his men secretly inquiring about a place name.

"Find out where this place is, and then send people to protect it. Also, check this guy in front of me. I want to see who dares to be so domineering in Shangjing."

Li Tian looked really abominable. He acted like a rich young man when asking for directions, completely forgetting that this was Shangjing. His father could not guarantee that he would be free from all the wrong things he did.

"Your Highness, I've found that this address is the home of a scholar on West Street. He has only an elderly mother and a little sister at home. I heard that the little sister just returned from Daming Prefecture."

Zhao Wei's guard reported the investigation to him. At first, Zhao Wei thought that it was no big deal for a Confucian scholar's family, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that the person who came to this house was most likely for that young lady.

So he asked, "What does the younger sister of the scholar look like?"

The guard said, "I have never seen her, but I heard she is very beautiful."

"Hiss..." Zhao Wei instantly became interested. This was a scene of a rich young man from some unknown family chasing a young lady, and he, Zhao Wei, planned to join in the fun.

Just as they were heading towards the address in West City, they happened to meet Li Tian and his men coming here.

"Have you found out who this person is?" Zhao Wei asked.

"Your Highness, our people are still investigating. It may take a while." The guards looked nervous. They knew the temper of the Second Prince.

"Don't worry if you can't find anything. Just go up and stop them and ask them directly."

The guards were shocked when they heard this. Is it really that simple? How is this any different from interrogating someone in public? This is too simple.

Since it was the second prince's order, no one dared not to carry it out. The guards rushed forward and surrounded Li Tian and his group.

"Who are you to dare to act so tyrannically in Shangjing?"

Li Tian has always been used to being domineering at home. Even in several counties outside Daming Prefecture, he walks around arrogantly and no one dares to question him. Did he not check the almanac before going out today?

"Who are you to stop my young master?"

One of Li Tian's servants asked casually.

Zhao Wei's guards are all officers and soldiers of the imperial palace. Even in the capital city, they are the prince's personal soldiers and the imperial guards among the imperial guards.

When they saw a man dressed as a servant, calling the person behind him "Young Master", they knew in their hearts that the person in front of them was not a member of the official family.

So he walked up and slapped the servant hard in the face.

"We are asking you questions. Behave yourself and answer honestly, or you'll get beaten again."

They always beat others, so when have they ever been beaten by others?

Seeing the situation, several servants were about to step forward, but they saw the other party pull out a machete from his waist.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, it was not illegal for ordinary people to carry weapons on the streets, such as knives, swords, spears, and hammers. However, they were not allowed to wear armor or carry long-range shooting weapons.

Seeing that the two sides were about to fight, Li Tian took a look at the situation and looked at a man dressed as a young master in the distance. He clasped his fists and said, "You may have misunderstood. My father is Li Gang, the current prefect of Daming Prefecture."

He thought that after he said this, the other party would give him some face, but unexpectedly, the second prince Zhao Wei became interested after hearing it.

He knew that Li Gang was a treacherous minister under his uncle, and that he was quite capable, but he had not been promoted in Daming Prefecture over the years because he was too smooth and was still on the sidelines.

Since it is a dog that cannot be tamed, there is no point in keeping it.

Zhao Wei smiled and whispered a few words to the guard beside him, then walked alone towards a house in the alley.

The guards asked everyone else to move aside and let Li Tian and his group leave.

Seeing the other party leave, Li Tian thought that the other party was not a powerful character, so he walked towards the known address in the alley.

The clerk in Daming Prefecture was also surnamed Li. His daughter was named Li Shiyuan, who was sixteen years old and still unmarried. She had planned to ask her cousin to find a good family for her in Shangjing, but unexpectedly she was coveted by Li Tian, ​​so she fled to Shangjing.

Normally, no one should dare to do this under the emperor's feet, but unexpectedly, Li Tian is the one who defies heaven.

Only my aunt and Li Shiyuan were at home at this time. My cousin Li Jun was studying at the academy and had not returned yet when he heard someone knocking on the door.

Li Shiyuan wanted to go out and open the door, but was stopped by her aunt. Older people can clearly distinguish between things in the world. The way they knock on the door is different for family members and outsiders, and there are also differences between good people and bad people.

Obviously, the person knocking on the door was not in a hurry, but not very gentle either, as if he had some idea in mind.

Li Shiyuan's aunt asked her to hide in the house and told her that if something went wrong, she should escape through the window and report the case to the government office.

After giving the instructions, the woman slowly went to open the gate of the yard.

There were three knocks on the door, and each time the rhythm was more urgent, which confirmed the woman's guess.

"Excuse me, sir, is there anything I can do for you by knocking on your door?" The woman opened the door and asked in a loud voice so that the neighbors could hear.

Seeing that it was not the person he wanted to see, Zhao Wei, as a prince, disdainfully barged in. He just said that he was thirsty and dizzy and wanted to borrow a bowl of water to quench his thirst.

This year was also a year of severe drought, and water was scarce for the people in the city. Many victims outside Shangjing City had no water to drink and could only move towards the northeast.

However, if someone begs at your door, how can you turn them away? After all, it's just a bowl of water.
