188 Strange Quest

Dondu!

Li Tang Dynasty Imperial City!

The entire periphery of the imperial city is painted with huge green dragons, that's right! Teal Dragon!

I don't know what the Li Tang Dynasty used as a symbol of royalty in history, but in the game, their symbol is the green dragon!

The dragon of the Double Song Dynasty was the Golden Dragon, while the Li Tang Dynasty was the Green Dragon among the Four Divine Beasts. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Each empire has a representative pattern, also called a totem, like the legendary wolf totem.

Of course, the totem of the Great Yuan Dynasty is the wolf totem.

The Double Song Dynasty is a golden dragon, commonly known as the imperial dragon totem.

The Li Tang Dynasty was a cyan dragon, commonly known as the green dragon totem.

The Great Yuan Dynasty is the Black Wolf King, commonly known as the Wolf King Totem.

The Ge Qin Dynasty is a sharp Ge! It is known as Qin Ge Totem.

The Kuching Dynasty is an altar known as the Altar Totem.

The Great Shang Dynasty is more special, it is the phantom of the 'gate' of the south of the heavenly court, known as the totem of the heavenly court.

Different totems, some different meanings.

Moreover, these totems are painted around the imperial city, which is very mysterious.

In wartime, in addition to the emperor's battle flag, the marshal's battle flag, and the national flag of the empire, it is the totem flag.

Totems have always been very mysterious, and no one can fully understand them.

Historically, totemic legends are carriers of the souls of the gods. It is the ancient primitive tribe that 'superstition' believed in some kind of natural or blood related relatives, ancestors, protectors, and so on. Or it can be used as a symbol or symbol of the clan. The primitive people's worship of nature is the basis for the production of totems.

The use of totems to explain myths, classical records and folk customs in history is one of the earliest cultural phenomena in human history.

And "Sleepwalking" just uses this part and integrates it perfectly.

In reality, people in different regions and countries have different totem worship, and the totem of the Chinese people is generally a dragon, which is why they call themselves the descendants of the dragon. Russia has the worship of the bear totem, the polar bear is the name of the Russians, I heard that they also have the polar bear as a special forces. The totems of Little Japan are chrysanthemums and cherry blossoms. South Koreans and Koreans worship hibiscus, while in Thailand it is Dapeng, in Laos it is an Asian elephant, and so on.

The topic is far away!

When Xiao Mu saw the totem of the Li Tang Dynasty, it was outside the imperial city of the Li Tang Dynasty.

In ancient times, in the early dynasties, ministers had to get up at midnight and travel half of the capital to the noon gate. At 3 a.m., the minister arrived outside the noon gate and waited.

Then, whenever the drum on the tower of the gate was beaten, the ministers had to line up;

Then, when the bell rang around 5 a.m., the palace gates opened.

Finally, the hundred officials entered in turn, crossed the Jinshui Bridge and formed a team in the square.

PS: If there are officials who cough, spit, or walk unsteadily, they will be recorded by the imperial historian in charge of picketing and will be dealt with.

Therefore, the early dynasty was the most helpless lesson in ancient times.

Of course, it is not so early in the game, rushing to the palace at five o'clock, opening the city gate at six o'clock, and starting the morning court at seven o'clock.

Xiao Mu really experienced the early dynasty of the ancient ministers, he prefers to sleep lazy, but when it comes to business, he is still measured.

So, last night he went to bed very early and still applied for a deep sleep in the system.

You must know that deep sleep is very good for the human body, and it is very refreshing to sleep for a while, as if you have slept for several hours.

Of course, good things are naturally expensive.

Therefore, Xiao Mu looked radiant this morning and was not sleepy at all.

He applied for a systematic breakfast, which was very nutritious and hearty, and he waited for work when he was full of food and drink.

"Ding-dong! System Prompt: The player Ye Piao's success Gao Fuyuan triggered the Xuanmin entry into the palace of the historical plot task of Huishuo, this task is one of the necessary tasks to stop "Westward Journey", please complete it carefully! Your current identity is the head of the Heavenly Rank First-Class Sect Geye Autumn Academy, and the leaves are drifting! ”

Well?

This time he actually used his identity, Xiao Mu, who was confused, didn't expect that this time the system would let him carry out the task like this, and when he triggered this task, he was confused, and now he is even more confused!

This historical plot quest is really weird!

Will Goku pit himself?

"Ding-dong! System Prompt: The player leaves are floating into the historical retrospective story mission, please pay attention! ”

――Game Dividing Line――

Returning to the Tang Palace of the Historical Plot Mission.

Tianhe Palace, the place where Tang Emperor Li Yuan received court officials in the palace of the Li Tang Dynasty.

In the official documents of the system, Xiao Mu was also sent here to meet Tang Emperor Li Yuan.

Soon, Xiao Mu adapted to his identity, he followed behind a soldier and walked towards the palace, it seems, now he is going to see Li Yuan?

"Hey, that soldier boy, who asked you to bring idle people to the Tianhe Palace, don't you know that the emperor is receiving the minister inside?"

As soon as Xiao Mu was taken outside the Tianhe Palace, a eunuch with a sharp voice appeared in front of the two people.

When the forbidden army saw that it was the celebrity beside the emperor, he immediately said with a smile: "Hello Gonggong Xu, this is the head of Ye Zipiao, the person summoned by the emperor." ”

When he heard that it was Xiao Mu, Father-in-law Xu, who had a somewhat old voice, immediately shouted a little: "You are the head of Ye Zipiaoling?" ”

"Father-in-law Xu, it's down there."

Xiao Mu's personality is also very exquisite, and when he saw that the forbidden army looked respectful to this sharp-throated old eunuch, he immediately knew that the identity of this eunuch was not simple.

Xiao Mu's appearance made this Gonggong Xu a little satisfied, and he was very happy, "Master Ye, although the How family is not interested in fighting and killing, but Master Ye, you are the hero in our family's heart." The emperor has instructed that if you come, take you to the imperial study. Please~"

Xiao Mu didn't expect that even the eunuchs in the palace were so clear about his reputation, he smiled slightly and followed behind Gonggong Xu towards the imperial study.

"Master Ye, the emperor is receiving the envoys of the Kuching Dynasty, you go to the imperial study to sit down first."

After Gonggong Xu knew Xiao Mu's identity, he also spoke more.

An envoy of the Kuching Dynasty?

Xiao Mu's heart suddenly chuckled, and he couldn't help but ask with some curiosity: "Dare to ask Gonggong Xu, who is the envoy of the Kuching Dynasty?" ”

"Speaking of this envoy, there are some origins."

When Gonggong Xu talked about the envoys of the Kuching Dynasty, there was a trace of scruple in his eyes.

"He is known as Zhang Liang of the Saint, Prime Minister Zhang Cheng."

Xiao Mu's words suddenly sounded in Xiao Mu's ears like a bomb, Zhang Liang, why is it Zhang Liang, isn't this guy in his own sect? Why did you suddenly run to this historical plot mission?

The legendary saint Zhang Liang!

There must be something wrong with this! And as an envoy of the Kuching Imperial Dynasty!

In "Sleepwalking in the Rivers and Lakes", the top strategists include Mr. Zhuge Liang, the "Wolong" during the Three Kingdoms period, Jia Xu, the "poisoner", and so on. There is also the "seeking saint" Zhang Liang.

The strategist here refers not only to having a unique view in military affairs, but also to being able to do other affairs in the DPRK and China.

Not to mention it from afar, let's talk about Xu Maogong of the Li Tang Dynasty, he can only be regarded as having unique views in military affairs. It can't be said that he is a top strategist, only a military advisor.

Xiao Mu actually likes to seek saint Zhang Liang, and there is a story about Zhang Liang's fame.

Back then, when Zhang Liang was a child, when he crossed the bridge from a river, he saw a sloppy old man half-lying on the bridge.

The old man said to him, "Son, can you help me pick up my shoes, my shoes have fallen off the bridge."

Zhang Liang saw that he was pitiful, and he was an old man, so he went down the bridge to help him pick him up.

After picking it up, the old man actually asked Zhang Liang to help him put it on, and Zhang Liang leaned over to put on his tattered shoes without saying anything.

However, this was not the end, the old man deliberately kicked his shoes down the river again, and asked Zhang Liang to help him

Pick up. Zhang Liangqiang endured the anger in his heart and jumped off the bridge, once again helped the old man pick up his shoes and help him put them on.

The old man was very satisfied, and he said to Zhang Liang: Three days later, you will come here at six o'clock in the morning to wait for me. With that, the old man left.

Zhang Liang didn't know why, he felt that the old man was mysterious, and he really went to the bridge three days later. As a result, the old man had already arrived.

The old man said to him, "You are late, and you will arrive here at six o'clock in three days." Then, he left again.

This time, Zhang Liangxue was smart and arrived there at five o'clock, but the old man still arrived early.

Still arrived at the bridge three days later, and this time Zhang Liang simply arrived at the bridge that night.

The next morning, it was the old man who woke him up, and the old man was very pleased with him and gave him a book of soldiers. Legend has it that the old man is Guiguzi, and that book of war is the Guigu Art of War.

Since then, Zhang Liang has worked diligently, read the art of war, assisted Liu Bang to lay down the Western Han Dynasty, and finally achieved the reputation of a generation of "seeking saints".

But this is a myth and legend, because Zhang Liang is from the Confucian sect! His respected teacher is also a Confucian boss!

Seriously, Xiao Mu didn't expect Zhang Liang to come to the Li Tang Dynasty as an envoy, but why? How did he participate in the Historical Plot Mission?

Lin Feng's mind was suddenly in turmoil, and before he knew it, Gonggong Xu took him to the imperial study.

The imperial study is the place where the emperor usually handles official documents, according to the background at this time! In recent years, the emperor has been frail and sickly, and the crown prince Li Jiancheng has become quite prestigious in the court and has begun to preside over some things. And Li Shimin, the king of Qin, had great prestige in the army, and the generals of the Tiance Mansion of the Li Tang Dynasty were completely obedient to Li Shimin's dispatch. And the third son, Li Yuanji, is openly colluding with Li Jiancheng, but secretly developing his own manpower, and the three princes all want to get the throne.

Under Xiao Mu's cranky thoughts, Gonggong Xu's shrill voice suddenly sounded outside.

"The emperor has arrived~"

Li Yuan came, Xiao Mu was not particularly nervous, he didn't kneel, kneeling to his parents, and the system didn't force players to kneel, so he had to bow down.

With Xiao Mu's expectant gaze, a middle-aged man with a slightly pale face, slightly gray hair, and a golden dragon robe appeared in front of Xiao Mu.

"The grass people have seen the Tang Emperor."

Xiao Mu did not belong to the Li Tang Dynasty, so such words were understandable.

"Master Ye, Mo Duoli."

The middle-aged man was Li Yuan, he smiled slightly and stroked Xiao Mu's body and said.

"Sit down, Master Ye."

Li Yuan didn't seem to have much imperial spirit, he was very kind. Xiao Mu was not afraid, and sat aside.

"All of you go down!"

Li Yuan waved his hand and asked the palace maid and eunuch on the side to retreat.

"You can step down too, Grandpa Xu."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Gonggong Xu bowed back and closed the door of the imperial study.

There were only two people left in the entire imperial study, Tang Emperor Li Yuan and Xiao Mu, and after everyone left, the two of them did not say a word in a tacit understanding.

I don't know if I didn't know what to say, or if I didn't think about it, the two of them didn't speak for a whole quarter of an hour.

Li Yuan looked at the dragon-shaped jade seal beside him quietly and didn't say a word, while Xiao Mu was even more aggressive, closed his eyes and seemed to sleep.

"Haha, Shimin said that Ye Zhangmen is the dragon among people, and a generation of heroes is also, I see you today,

Sure enough, it's good. ”

In the end, it seemed that Li Yuan bowed down and broke the long silence.

Xiao Mu opened his eyes and said with a slight smile: "The emperor has won the award, and the grass people are a small master, what kind of generation of heroes." ”

"Haha, young people are right to be humble."

Li Yuan laughed, and his right hand kept stroking the dragon-shaped jade seal beside his hand.

"Master Ye, do you know why I announced that you entered the palace?"

Li Yuan stopped laughing all of a sudden, and asked in a flat voice.

"For the sake of the three princes vying for the throne!"

Xiao Mu also had a flat expression, but his words were amazing.

There was no surprise in Li Yuan's eyes, but a hint of appreciation.

"Why am I looking for you?"

Asking this question, Li Yuan's eyes were firmly fixed on Xiao Mu's face, and he didn't move away for a moment.

"Because I'm kind of a special person."

Xiao Mu didn't say much, just pointed out slightly. His eyes were also fixed on Li Yuan, and he didn't leave for a moment.

Li Yuan leaned back on the dragon chair and asked with a twinkle in his eyes, "Do you know that people who are too smart generally don't live long?" ”

Xiao Mu straightened his hair, tilted his head and said, "That's average, I only know that if I'm not smart enough today, I won't live long." ”

"Well, sure enough, it is better than the blue, a young man actually has such a big picture, it's good."

Li Yuan seemed very satisfied, he felt that he had made the right bet.

"Three princes, who should I let succeed to the throne?"

When he said this, Li Yuan looked as if he had aged more than ten years all of a sudden, and at this moment it seemed that he was no longer an emperor, just an ordinary father.

Xiao Mu also felt the change in Li Yuan, he sighed and said, "The crown prince is the eldest prince, if he does not succeed to the throne, there will be many ministers in the court who oppose it. After all, the firstborn comes first! And King Qin is the most suitable prince, but he is the second prince, no matter how many merits in the army can resist this problem. As for the three princes......"

Xiao Mu was talking to an elderly neighbor at the moment, and he said all this in a flat voice.

"Third prince, does he have other empires to help?"

Xiao Mu suddenly asked such a question, this time Li Yuan glanced at Xiao Mu in some surprise, but he still answered truthfully: "Yes." ”

Well? Interesting!
