Chapter 461: Living Immortals (Finale)
This time, it became Cheng Yanjin and Xue Wanche, two fierce generals, who wiped out Li Ji of Goguryeo and the Wa Kingdom, and it is no longer suitable to add such a contribution to the destruction of the country.
But this time, Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui and Lin Sen have also grown into good hands.
The two simply became the deputy head of the march, and Lin Sen was still the vanguard general.
The main reason is that those two have also been cultivated as handsome talents, and Lin Sen has always been only suitable for being a simple fierce general. He Li, a macho man, is also the same character as Lin Sen.
Under the leadership of such a fierce general, the Tang army, which has become more powerful, has won more with less along the way, almost sweeping away the Western Turks in a devastating posture.
Of course, thanks to the help of many cavalrymen who originally belonged to the Turkic and Khitan ethnic groups, these people are now proud of their identity as Tang people, and fighting is called a game of life.
And with Lin Sen and his subordinates and other really ruthless people, they are not afraid of these people being proud, when it comes to courage and ferocity, Lin Sen, who has always been recognized as the "demon god" by all the Hu people around and in the territory of Datang, is the choice of the moment.
Even Xue Rengui, who is now famous, is worse than Lin Sen.
After the suppression of the Western Turks, the surrounding area of Datang can be said to be invincible for a short time.
At this time, the development of Datang has also reached a certain height, with the support of various high-yield crops, and the population migration and development of the two major grain producing areas in the south and northeast, the population of Datang has maintained a high growth rate, and people's living standards are also steadily improving.
Especially after digesting the fruits of these wars, under the auspices of Li Chengqian, the Tang Dynasty gradually established a stable three-level currency system of gold, silver and copper coins, and there was no longer a need to rely on barter to trade as before.
Li Chengqian, who had such a martial arts, after defeating the Western Turks, went to Mount Tai to seal the Zen under the request of a group of ministers five times and three times, which can be regarded as affirming his achievements.
Lin Sen, of course, was among his peers. With the accumulation of the previous few meritorious achievements, and the fact that several veterans either resigned or died because of old age, Lin Sen finally sat in the position of one of the generals of the Sixteen Guards, and he could be regarded as the pinnacle of military generals.
The military officials are almost at the top, except for the kind that is used to give people posthumous mourning.
In terms of titles, Lin Sen is now a prince.
To be able to do this at his age, it used to be a founding general like Cheng Yanjin.
After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, with his white body, he was absolutely unique to rise to such a high position so quickly.
And not long after the completion of the Zen ceremony, Li Chengqian did a rather sensational event, he directly announced the Zen throne to the crown prince Li Xiang, and went to be a relatively relaxed emperor.
And in the list of auxiliary ministers, there are also Ma Zhou and Lin Sen.
Under Lin Sen's care, Ma Zhou has lived past the ancient rarity at his eyes, and he has lived more than 20 years longer than in history.
Having this glory similar to Taifu can be said to be a great affirmation of his life.
However, Lin Sen has this honor, which is indeed beyond the expectations of many people, and in the end, not to mention Li Chengqian's efforts to disagree with the public, less than half of the people support it anyway.
In the matter of establishing the prince and educating the prince, Lin Sen has never interfered at all, he wants to show his attitude.
However, Li Xiang's queen is Lin Sen's daughter Xiao Jue'er, as the national ruler, Lin Sen has this honor, and the other ministers don't have much to say.
In fact, the real reason, Li Chengqian and Li Xiang both know, and Lin Sen certainly understands that it is nothing more than his identity as a "traverser".
Besides, Lin Sen has done a lot for Datang over the years, many of which can't be said on the table, but the royal family always has to give an explanation.
For example, the students from the Royal Academy have begun to appear in the court now.
These were the first batch of students to enter the local academy built by those people, and later after selection, they entered the Guozijian to study.
It is not only Kong Yingda and a group of old scholars who teach them, but also Ma Zhou, a high-ranking official at the level of Zaifu, who teaches them how to deal with practice, and they can't all be trained to be good at empty talk.
In addition, of course, some of Lin Sen's students have also appeared in the political arena, and most of them are also practical officials.
For example, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Agriculture, or the money bags of Datang, who let them come into contact with this kind of knowledge.
As the chief disciple of Lin Sen, Xi Junmai is the best among them, before Li Chengqian abdicated, he had already achieved the position of the head of the Xuanwu Sect, that is, he took over Zhang Shigui's stall and became the chief guard of the entire palace, directly responsible for protecting Li Chengqian's net worth.
I don't know if Li Chengqian is reassuring Lin Sen in this way.
Compared with Xue Rengui, who was deliberately alienated by Lin Sen after becoming famous, Xi Junmai has never concealed his gratitude and love for Lin Sen.
If Lin Sen wants to rebel one day, Xue Rengui may not necessarily follow, and may even be the vanguard of the rebellion, but Xi Junmai definitely does not hesitate to pull all the hands he can mobilize, and follows the unveiling without saying a word.
And the brothers Ping An and Zhenxiang, who have grown up over the years, have also entered the court one after another.
As Lin Sen guessed, Ping An really became the No. 1 fierce general, inheriting Lin Sen's flexible body and super physical strength, and having the innate divine power of his mother Cheng Huaiyu, this guy made it clear that he was another unparalleled fierce general.
And Zhenxiang was much quieter, and then he really took the path of a civil official, but at the beginning, like Lin Sen's students, he also started from a petty official in the Ministry of Industry. He did a good job, and he was gradually promoted.
Li Chengqian, who is retired, likes to take his wife Su Shi when he has nothing to do, and sometimes he has to pull a few grandchildren to Lin Sen to play, and Ma Zhou, who is semi-retired, often comes to get together.
It's just that they obviously can't survive Lin Sen, probably because of the influence of system energy, Lin Sen is not sick or sick, and his body is called healthy.
This will disappoint many enemies, such as the people of the family who have been devastated by him.
In this way, he witnessed his son-in-law Li Xiang all the way, and the Zen throne was given to his own grandson, that is, the eldest son born to Li Xiang and Xiao Jue'er, and then saw his grandson's abdication and passed on to his son, and then to his grandson......
And Lin Sen, who has always been tough, will get the title of a prince and a prince every time, and then become a prince and a prince, and so on.
At the age of more than 100, he has become the most legendary figure in the entire Tang Dynasty, and he is also the "Renrui" who was personally crowned by the emperor, and he is the real "living immortal" in the minds of all Tang people.
Even with the Lin family village, it has become a recognized peach paradise, even if the Lin family has already spread out and scattered to all parts of the Tang Dynasty, this is probably the most dense place for the entire Tang Dynasty except for the palace during the Great Dynasty Meeting.
Not only because the descendants of the Lin family will return to their roots after retirement and go to live in the Lin family's Zhuangzi, but also around Lin Sen, the ancestor, many other officials who have a relationship with the Lin family, especially those disciples and grandchildren of Lin Sen, also like to do this.
Over the years, Lin Sen has not only witnessed the continuous development of Datang, but now Datang is really vast, and almost the entire Asian land has become the actual ruling area of Datang, and he has also begun to explore the American continent.
Countries in Europe and Africa often come to the Hajj to make the Hajj to the central country, which is so large that everyone shuddered.
It can be said to be the real center of the world, an invincible existence that will tremble the whole world when you stomp your feet.
Lin Sen also discovered many characters who are enough to go down in history for the Tang Dynasty.
Di Renjie and other civil officials will not talk about it, Ge Shuhan, Guo Ziyi and other generals are his real proud works.
Because these generals have been personally instructed by him, who made him surrender to the takin, and also can shoot a hard bow, and dance a sword and gun even though he is more than a hundred years old.
Many generals regard this as the glory of their lives, and even as a kind of inheritance, often throughout their lives, they can be strict with themselves, self-denial, and finally live up to Lin Sen's expectations and become the pillars of Datang.
On Lin Sen's 120th birthday, Lin Sen convened a rare birthday ceremony.
From the emperor to the civil and military officials, except for those who unfortunately couldn't come because they were in other places, or even in the distant American continent, they basically all came to Linjiazhuang, which is now closed to the outside world, to celebrate the birthday of this legendary living immortal.
On such a festive day, Lin Sen publicly stated that his deadline was approaching and announced his future.
Everything is certain from Jane, just bury him and Cheng Huaiyu in the family cemetery.
This was mainly for the emperor, who did not want to accompany Li Shimin's Zhaoling Mausoleum, although it was also an honor.
After his death, the Lin family will be separated, and it can no longer exist as a complete family, and even the plan for the separation has been made.
In addition, the purpose of the Lin family was also emphasized, which was to be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, and to strive to make the central country always the center of the world.
In the midst of everyone's congratulations, Lin Sen ate the cake with a smile, drank a little wine, and said a few words to the emperor.
The next day, Lin Sen summoned the heads of the various branches of the Lin family, explained his words, and after leaving a letter, he smiled in front of everyone, and died without a problem!
The whole country mourned in the Tang Dynasty, and the emperor announced that all government agencies would lower their flags at half-mast in mourning.
At Lin Sen's funeral, there was an emperor who wore linen and filial piety, because his mother was also a descendant of the Lin family, and there were also civil and military officials with mournful faces, and of course, there were also a number of descendants and disciples of the Lin family.
There were also many people who spontaneously came to mourn. The entire Chang'an City was empty for this reason......
