Dynasties Watch My Livestream of Everyday Rural Life

[Content warning: Chapter 27 features Li Guang. Don't buy!]

After quitting her job, Lin Ling decided to return to her hometown to keep her grandfather company in his old age and start livestreaming her daily life.

She streamed regularly: traveling, going to the market to buy groceries, and helping her grandfather, a retired teacher, run free classes for children left behind in the countryside.

That day, her grandfather set up a little blackboard under the longan tree to teach the children again.

There were hardly any viewers in Lin Ling's new livestream, but she didn't mind. She brought out some watermelon and popsicles from home to share with the children as they listened to the lesson. The children were of different ages, so her grandfather taught them a “mixed platter” of topics.

Lin Ling didn't notice that the livestream on her phone stand glitched for a moment before returning to normal.

In the palaces of the Qin, Han, Tang, Song, Ming, and Qing dynasties, golden light suddenly blazed, revealing a divine miracle.

“Today we're reviewing important historical milestones from every dynasty in our homeland, the Flower Kingdom, the major events that are often on exams. And I'd like you to list some moments in history that you find especially regrettable

[Qin Shi Huang carried on the achievements of six generations and unified the six states, only for the empire to fall after two generations,]

Qin Shi Huang: “What? Who fell after two generations?”

[Su Wu of the Western Han endured nineteen years of ice and snow, holding fast to his mission,]

Emperor Wu of Han: “What, Su Wu was gone for nineteen years??? Damn those Xiongnu!”

[Zhuge Liang, who made five northern campaigns and six expeditions to Mount Qi, died at Wuzhang Plains,]

Liu Shan clung to Zhuge Liang and wept: “My father...”

[The prosperous Tang dynasty crumbled overnight in the An Lushan Rebellion,]

Emperor Taizong of Tang drew his sword in fury: “Who did it! Which worthless descendant of mine!”

[The shame of Jingkang remained unavenged; the loyal patriot could never again set out to restore the lost lands,]

[And the one hundred thousand soldiers and civilians who died by suicide in the naval battle at Yashan,]

Zhao Kuangyin: “...” (The Song dynasty gets two on its own, and he's already passed out.)

[There was Yu Qian, who saved Beijing but couldn't save himself, and there will never be another Zhang Juzheng.]

“Who the hell is the Tumu Emperor!” Zhu Yuanzhang roared, then belatedly realized: “Huh? Since when did the capital of our Ming become Beijing?”

Reader's guide:

1. The different timelines do not affect one another.

2. The projection reaches only a limited area. Only historical figures with significant influence can see it; most ordinary people cannot.

3. I'm not a history major, so please forgive any mistakes or omissions.

4. History lessons and daily rural life alternate. The pacing is slow, with a focus on the everyday side of historical livestreaming.

5. The Qing dynasty appears in this novel. Please don't read if that bothers you.

6. Updates three times daily. My stockpile is gone, so I'll post each chapter as soon as it's written, with no fixed schedule.

7. The blurb was screenshotted on October 12, 2023.
