Chapter 60: The Current Situation in the World

The fastest passing thing in this world is often not the beautiful face, but the watery time. In this world, what is often forgotten first is often not a fragment of time as plain as water, but a vow that will never be forgotten at the beginning.

The night is already deep, the starry sky and the bright moon cannot be seen, and the night when it is cloudy is always filled with thick black, as if it is a bottomless black hole, as if everyone will stay here forever.

In this dark night, there was a faint fluorescence, faintly reflecting a person's slightly old face.

"Sorry, the user you are calling is not in the service area, please dial again later, Sorry"

Quietly pressed the lock screen button, there seemed to be a soft sigh in the silent night, Xu Yang fantasized more than once that one day this phone would ring, which was the gentle consolation of the later generations, but this qiē is only a plot that will appear in a dream.

Seventeen years seem to be just a blink of an eye, and when I look back, I realize that I am no longer a teenager.

Slowly pushing open the courtyard door of the courtyard, raising his head and quietly looking at the night sky above his head, Xu Yang wiped the dust on the stone steps with his sleeve and sat down slowly.

Mengli and the others were already asleep, and in the quiet night, they could occasionally hear their faint whispers, they were already a part of their own lives, and they were so familiar that they couldn't be more familiar, so Xu Yang knew that he didn't wake them up.

The hand of time has shifted to the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, because of his own existence, the Tang Dynasty depicted in the official history, has changed dramatically from the Tang Dynasty in which he lives now.

Yesterday's "Datang News" had already reported the news that Li Ji had sent envoys to the Rhine, and that the western countries had broken thousands of years of geographical isolation and had contact with envoys from distant eastern countries for the first time.

When I heard the news. Xu Yang couldn't help but secretly think. A millennium later. When the soldiers of the Eight-Nation Alliance set foot on the mysterious eastern land, did they feel the same mood as Li Ji now?

The west is peaceful, and the plateau continues to develop in an orderly manner under Li Ke's jurisdiction, but the opening of the Silk Road has made the territory north of the Hexi Corridor glow with unprecedented vitality. This shows how prosperous business activities are.

Throughout the 30,000-li territory of the Tang Dynasty, everywhere is showing the state of prosperity, the world's greatest empire, building its immortal walls bit by bit.

The recent calm in the court, the only thing that made waves was Wei Zheng, who was praised by Li Er as a 'human mirror' and was famous for later generations, died.

Exactly like the historical record, Wei Zheng had a serious illness this year, which was called cerebral thrombosis in later generations, and Sun Simiao, the head of the medical school, was at a loss for this. I could only watch Wei Zheng pass away quietly.

However, Wei Gong was very open to life and death, after hearing Xu Yang admit that his illness could not be cured. Wei Zheng did not show the slightest expression of pain, but was more energetic to write, and when asked the reason, he just said: "Life is short, and I don't want to leave regrets for not finishing the book." ”

However, in the end, he was unable to complete his work and died. Li Er also expressed considerable respect for the departure of this senior member of the court, and declared that Wei Zheng would be crowned as the Duke of Zheng Guo and strike the dynasty for three days to commemorate the contribution of Wei Zheng, the former subordinate of the hidden prince, to his dynasty.

The inheritance of human beings is always accompanied by death and rebirth, and like Wei Zheng, the old lady Liu of Xujiazhuang also drove west due to physical aging in early spring.

Xujiazhuang held a grand funeral up and down, Mrs. Liu lived to be ninety-six years old, which is considered a very high age in the Tang Dynasty with an average life expectancy of only fifty years old, so according to the old man's will, his funeral should be a happy funeral, and the old lady of the same generation almost all passed away, according to the old man's words, he can now finally go down to visit his colleagues and friends.

The scale of the funeral is very large, and the influence of the Xu family in the Guigu is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people, not only the rich businessmen and giants came to visit, but also the members of the DPRK and the central government, and the generals in the army went to the village to pay their respects.

What's even more glorious is that even His Majesty and Li Er sent someone to send a couplet to mourn the deceased, which couldn't help but make Old Lady Liu famous for thousands of miles and become a well-known figure in Shuzhong.

Xu Yang faintly recalled, suddenly, he wanted to light a cigarette to relieve the mood at the moment, Zhenguan seventeen years, this point in time in history, can be said to be a year of sudden changes in the Tang Dynasty, this year, a series of things happened in the Tang Dynasty, all of which paved the way for the variables that happened later.

In the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, Li You, the governor of Qizhou, was close to the villain, liked to hunt, and recruited warriors privately. Quan Wanji was ruled by the edict, and Younai occupied Qizhou to disobey and killed Quan Wanji and Wei Wenzhen, the school captain. Privately appointed officials such as Shangzhu State and Kaifu, opened the treasury and rewarded, set up officials such as King Tuodong and King Tuoxi, and drove the people into the city, which opened the curtain of the Tang Dynasty to seize the throne.

In early April of the same year, because Li Taishen was favored by Taizong, Cheng Qian privately raised the assassin Su Gan Chengji and more than 100 strong men, and premeditated the death of the King of Wei. Hou Junji and his son-in-law, Donggong Qianniu, Helan Chushi and the King of Han repeatedly persuaded Chengqian to rebel. Su Gan inherited the rebellion of Qi Wangyou and was imprisoned, so he also sued the prince for premeditated rebellion. Taizong ordered the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Xiao Yu, and Li Shiyun to investigate this matter. The verification is true. Taizong issued an edict to abolish the crown prince Chengqian as a concubine, locked up in the right leading military mansion, and gave the Han king Yuanchang to commit suicide. Hou Junji and others were killed.

Then Li Tai, the only Wei king who had the only hope of inheriting the throne, actually said the stupid thing of 'killing his son and passing on his brother', which finally made Li Er lose trust and confidence in all his sons, and under the persuasion of the eldest grandson Wuji, he announced that Li Zhi would be established as the crown prince.

This establishment finally directly led the later Martial Emperor Wu Zetian to take the opportunity to ascend to the throne and began to slaughter the people of the Li Dynasty, and the Li family's rivers and mountains were also in turmoil.

The change of the dynasty is not what Xu Yang cares about, because the lives of ordinary people are the most important balance in Xu Yang's heart, but if in this feudal society, the royal family is unstable, the world will fall into all kinds of disputes, so Xu Yang changed this qiē and let everything develop in a good direction.

Li Chengqian's leg was not lame, Li Tai lost interest in the throne because of his research, Li Su and Li You earned enough money for them to enjoy, Li Ke was sent to Tubo to be the king of Tubo, and Li Zhi became Li Er's pistachio to relieve pressure in his later years, this qiē was arranged as if it was fate, but no one knew that there was a person who saw through the times with his own eyes and arranged the situation with his own hands......
