257 B.C., the capital of Zhao, Handan.
It had been more than half a month since the Qin army attacked Zhao. The Qin army's general, Wang He, led tens of thousands of Qin troops to attack along Dingyang, Yangyi, and other places. After crossing the Zhang River, they had already arrived near Wu 'an.
Even though the Zhao army fought with all their might, facing the ferocious Qin army, they had no choice but to retreat back to Handan City to prepare for the final resistance.
By now, the Qin army had already reached a hundred miles outside Handan City. They would be able to reach Handan in at most a month.
At this moment, the atmosphere in Handan City was heavy. There were few pedestrians on the streets, and even if there were, they all had worried expressions.
Few people came in and out of the usually noisy inns and karaoke houses. The topic of conversation at the dining table was mostly the battle situation at the front line.
Qin Mu stood under an old tree that was already bald. Perhaps it was because no one had cleaned it up, causing the withered leaves to pile up under it.
The air was filled with a rotten smell. It was unknown if it came from the dead leaves or was originally in the air.
"I really transmigrated." Qin Mu sighed.
Until now, he still could not believe that he would be involved in transmigration. However, no matter how hard he refused to believe it, everything in front of him was the truth.
Qin Mu had really transmigrated to one of the most chaotic periods in history, the Warring States Period!
The Warring States Period was a period of great change after the Spring and Autumn Period!
In 453 B.C., Han, Zhao, and Wei destroyed the Zhi family and divided the three families into Jin. In 221 B.C., Qin unified the six countries.
This was the most chaotic era, where life was like grass. The seven kingdoms of Han, Chu, Yan, Zhao, Qi, Wei, and Qin were fighting for hegemony, causing wars all year round. The people were in dire straits, and this was truly a chaotic world!
At the same time, this was also the best era. Ying Zheng, the first emperor of all time, had come into being and personally ended this five-hundred-year-long chaotic world. He led the Qin Dynasty to destroy the six dynasties, and the four seas were united into one, completing the great unification.
'Even if I transmigrated to the Tang Dynasty or Song Dynasty, why did it have to be the Warring States Period, sigh ~' Qin Mu sighed again and lowered his head to look at the puddle by his feet. The dirty water surface reflected a tiny person.
He was sallow and skinny, looking like he was severely malnourished.
He looked like he was three or four years old and was wearing a torn, large, and thin linen shirt.
She was barefooted, her feet red and purple from the cold.
Overall, he looked like a beggar.
"A little beggar at the beginning. I'm afraid I'm the most unlucky transmigrator in history.”Qin Mu was speechless.
Gulp ~
A strange sound came from Qin Mu's stomach.
Qin Mu rubbed his shriveled stomach with a helpless expression. It had been three days since he transmigrated here.
He only remembered that when he woke up, he was lying in a pile of grass. He thought that the previous owner of this body was a little beggar who had frozen to death in the end. This also gave him the opportunity to take over.
For the past three days, Qin Mu had wandered around. After asking around, he realized that this was Handan, the capital of Zhao State. It was also because of this that Qin Mu realized that he had transmigrated to the Warring States Period.
From the conversations of some pedestrians, he heard the news of the Qin army attacking Handan. Qin Mu guessed that it should be the end of the Warring States Period, which was around 260 B.C.
Qin Mu wasn't sure which year it was. Even though he knew some history, he wasn't proficient in it and only knew a rough idea.
Perhaps it was because he hadn't eaten for three days, but Qin Mu didn't have the strength to support himself anymore. He walked to the side of the old tree with difficulty and sat down. He leaned against the trunk that was emitting a thick rotten smell and raised his head to look at the sky.
It was a clear blue sky with no clouds for thousands of miles. It was as clear as jade, and the clouds were not stained.
"This ancient sky is really beautiful.”Qin Mu muttered, and his vision gradually blurred. He was too tired and too hungry.
"Perhaps this is all a dream. Entering a dream is when you wake up from it.”
At the last moment when Qin Mu's consciousness was about to dissipate, he vaguely heard a crisp and gentle voice.
"Husband, why don't we save him? He won't be able to hold on for long if this continues.”
Lady Zhao looked at the unconscious Qin Mu leaning against the old tree. Perhaps it was because she had just become a mother, she couldn't help but feel pity for him.
"Since Furen is willing to take action, then bring this little fellow back. Perhaps he can be Zheng 'er's companion.”Ying Yiren reached out his hand and pinched the child's face in his arms. He didn't hide his affection for the child at all as he said,"What do you think, Zheng 'er?"
Little Ying Zheng looked at Qin Mu and tilted his head. Two dimples appeared on his chubby and red face as he said in a childish voice,""Big brother is asleep."
"Master." Ying Yiren nodded to Shen Yue, who was beside him.
The middle-aged man called Shen Yue understood and walked in front of Qin Mu to carry him by the waist.
…………
Qin Mu had a dream. He dreamt that he had returned to the warring states era where war was raging and that he had turned into a three to four year old beggar.
However, when he woke up, he knew that this was not a dream.
What entered his eyes was a room with classical decorations. The light in the room was weak, but he could vaguely see it.
Qin Mu was lying on a wooden couch with a warm and thick blanket covering his body. This warmth immediately woke him up, and his sleepiness faded away. He then reflexively sat up.
In the end, a wave of dizziness hit him. His limbs were weak, and his throat was in extreme pain, as if there was a fish bone stuck in it.
Qin Mu coughed violently.
At this moment, light footsteps came from outside the room. The door was pushed open, and a pale-yellow-robed man appeared.| A beautiful woman in a long dress walked in.
When Lady Zhao saw Qin Mu coughing, she walked over quickly and patted his back gently. Only then did Qin Mu's coughing gradually stop.
" Water... water..." Qin Mu's voice was hoarse.
Lady Zhao poured a cup of warm water and passed it to Qin Mu.
Qin Mu took the teacup and gulped it down. Only then did his throat feel better and his body recovered some strength.
"Who are you?" Qin Mu sized up Concubine Zhao.
Lady Zhao was extremely beautiful. She had a pair of seductive foxy eyes, willowy eyebrows, a nose, white teeth, and red lips. Her long black hair was tied up on her head, leaving behind some that reached her waist.
Mistress Zhao picked up a handkerchief and gently wiped the water from the corner of Qin Mu's mouth. She said unhurriedly,""My name is Zhao Ji, and I will be your mother from now on.”
