Chapter 4 The Era of Opportunities and Risks
What scares Liu Yi the most is that the current era is when Li Zhi and Wu Zetian are in power together.
Liu Yi had very good grades in school in later generations, and he was also more interested in history, although he did not have a very detailed understanding of the historical process of the Tang Dynasty, but he knew that Li Zhi, who had been the emperor for almost 30 years, would die in a few years, and the ruthless Wu Zetian grasped the absolute power of the Tang Dynasty after Li Zhi's death, and purged and killed the Li Tang clan, and a large number of clan members and ministers loyal to Li Tang were killed.
This is definitely not a fun thing, it is possible that Liu Xianli, the father who is loyal to Li Tang, will also be clicked by Wu Zetian's old ladies, Wu Zetian's purge of the generals in the army is not ordinary!
If his father suffers, the family in the house will not escape the fate, and they may be arrested by Wu Zetian or a group of cool officials under her command, and let people behead and play.
It's not a good thing to be beheaded, even if you can cross again after death, who knows which world you will go to again, and it would be a tragedy to play with monkeys in primitive society.
If it is said that it is not the era when Wu Zetian is about to take power, Liu Yi can also live comfortably and comfortably with his identity as a child of an official eunuch, so as to make up for the fatigue caused by the busyness of later generations, and the fatigue caused by not enjoying life well, and some literati and friends chant poems, drink and talk, soak some beauties, marry his three wives and four concubines, carefully study the differences between ancient beauties and modern beauties in later generations, and feel the romance of wind and snow. It is not impossible to regenerate a large litter of cubs, and live a leisurely life until the end of life.
But now it is definitely not possible, the troubled times are coming, in this era of great turmoil among the upper echelons, Liu Yi, as the son of a high-ranking official, knows that he will definitely be impacted, and he also knows that it is impossible to settle for the status quo with his surname and be a second-generation official who has no quarrel with the world. The troubled times are when heroes show themselves and lead the way, they roughly know the process of historical development, and they have more than a thousand years of accumulation of knowledge in all aspects than today's people, Liu Yi feels that he must do something, and it is best to influence the course of history.
Thinking of this, Liu Yi had a headache, he felt angry because he lacked enough understanding of this period of history, and he didn't know the specific process of history, so he couldn't make an effective response. Liu Yi is also sighing, why don't you spend some time in later generations to look at historical materials such as "Zizhi Tongjian", "New Tang Book", "Old Tang Book", "Shufu Yuan Turtle", etc., so that he doesn't know much about history, and he doesn't even know what kind of character Liu Xianli is in history, what happened to him, and he can't know anything else.
It's just that no matter what, Liu Yi doesn't want to waste his life in this most glorious and powerful era in Chinese history, and the crossing will not happen in three days, and it will not happen after everyone dies. In order not to waste the identity of this traverser, he must make some achievements, for himself, for the safety of his family, and for this unusual era.
It's just that how to realize this dream is something that Liu Yi must consider now, as Liu Xianli's youngest son, it is basically no fun to inherit his father's official position and title, Liu Yi must use his own talents to fight hard.
It is too difficult to participate in the imperial examination and enter the office. Although Liu Yi remembers a lot of what he learned when he was in school, as well as the Tang and Song poems that he usually wrote down when he was interested, these things can be taken out to bluff people, but if he wants to participate in the imperial examination, those articles written in ancient Chinese, Liu Yi can understand it is already a great luck, he really has no confidence to compete with the literati of this era in writing articles.
Liu Yi now has to face those ancient texts full of ancient texts every day, let alone write articles with these sentences.
Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the imperial court attaches great importance to military equipment, and a large number of military generals are in high positions in the court, calling for wind and rain, Liu Yi knows a lot, Li Jing, Li Shiji, Li Daozong, Hou Junji, Su Dingfang, Liu Renliang, Pei Xingjian, etc., but I don't know the name of my father Liu Xianli.
It's just that people such as Li Jing and Li Shiji, who can frighten people, have been immortal for many years, and it is impossible to make friends again, and now there should be Liu Renliang, Pei Xingjian and others who are still alive, Liu Yi has a strong urge to know these historical celebrities.
But his father Liu Xianli is not in the court, and it is not easy to know these people.
It has been about two months since I came to Datang, and in addition to the court, the general situation around me has been clearly understood.
It's just that Liu Yi is not very free in the mansion, since he was injured in martial arts, the Zhang family has strictly controlled him, not allowing him to go out, not allowing him to practice martial arts, and resting in the mansion all day.
Fortunately, Liu Yi moved out of the so-called admonition left by Liu Xianli before the expedition, as well as the advice of the two elder brothers, after lying down for more than ten days, Zhang finally allowed him to practice martial arts again, and Liu Yi also familiarized himself with the skills he had learned in the shortest possible time, including horseback riding, archery, marksmanship, etc., as well as calligraphy that was indispensable in this era.
Liu Yi doesn't know if it's God's favor or it's destined to happen, although the original memory of this body has not been preserved much, but these skills are still preserved like the instinct of the body, after dozens of days of proficiency, not only has it recovered to its original level, but also because of the strict special training that Liu Yi received in later generations, these things have been integrated, and the original skills have been improved a lot, which makes Liu Yi surprised.
From the time of rebirth to the harsh winter of this world, three months have passed, and it has become the early spring season when everything is recovering, and Liu Yi, who stayed in the house and was bored, repeatedly begged his mother to let him go out of the house to play.
Liu Yi In the past few months, Zhang did not allow him to go out during the day, and only sneaked out at night, but now Chang'an still implements a curfew, and there are basically no people on the streets at night, only some patrol sergeants, no street lights, and it is pitch black. Therefore, he repeatedly begged his mother to let him go out of the house to play.
Zhang finally agreed to let Liu Yi go out, but ordered two servants to follow. The two domestic servants named Liu Ben and Liu Quan faithfully carried out the arrangement of the master mother, and followed Liu Yi like two big heels, so that Liu Yi could enjoy the majestic scenery of Chang'an City and be full of pleasure at the same time, but also have less freedom.
However, Chang'an City also gave Liu Yi a lot of shocking places, the tall city walls to look up to, the Daming Palace and Taiji Palace, which looked more magnificent under the sun, the neatly arranged market squares like Tianqi, and the wide streets, all of which had such a strong impact on Liu Yi's vision, so that he had a better impression of Chang'an City.
Because of his profession, Liu Yi has been to Xi'an several times in the future, although it is said that the prosperity of Xi'an in the future is better than today's Chang'an, and the streets are still so straight, but the momentum is no longer there, and the royal majesty and bearing have long since disappeared, making people a little disappointed and sentimental.
The shadow of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty has been basically found in Xi'an in later generations, although many place names of the Tang Dynasty such as Zhuque Street are still there, but the once glorious imperial city, including all the palaces together with the magnificent Chang'an City, were destroyed in the war, the traces of the Tang Dynasty have been annihilated in the dust of history, the ruins of Daming Palace have just been excavated, the ruins of Taiji Palace are still residents, and the rammed earth that has been left behind, left in the descendants is only a heavy nostalgia and sentimentality.
While looking at these majestic buildings, Liu Yi couldn't help but sigh with emotion, if the Tang Dynasty could continue forever, how would history develop? However, one thing is for sure, if Wu Zetian does not come to power, and the Anshi Rebellion does not happen later, the Tang Dynasty will definitely continue for many more years, and the history behind it will also change. If the Tang Dynasty can continue, the entire history of China will be rewritten, the history of the Han nation of the Mengyuan and Manchu dynasties will not be staged, and there will be a lot less humiliation in China.
It's just that although Liu Yi is said to be the son of a high-ranking official, he has no influence on the government, and it is not easy to change the course of history, let's talk about it later, finding the right opportunity is the most important thing.
Liu Yi thought about things, rode around the city a few times, and finally headed for the lively West Market. After walking around the West Market for a while and buying some useful things, the time stipulated by the Zhang family had arrived, and Liu Yi didn't want his mother to worry, so he planned to go home.
Unexpectedly, when he left the West Market, there was a shocking scene, Liu Yi now carefully recalled the scene, and it was still a little as if in a dream, could something really be arranged by God? Or is it a coincidence? Why did such a rare thing happen to him?
It's just that I walked around the West Market for a long time, and I didn't see any stunning women, and I just saw these two so-called women in the palace and couldn't see their faces carefully, Liu Yi was also a little depressed, the legend is that beautiful women were abundant in ancient times, and it turned out to be really just a legend.
It is possible that beautiful women don't go to a noisy place like Xishi, Liu Yi has to be so comforted.
However, in the liquor store opened by the Hu people, the orchids that solicit customers are quite tasteful.
Another thing that makes Liu Yi depressed is that his psychology is not as calm as that of being a secret agent in later generations, and he is more impulsive, just like when he first went on the street, he had the psychology of hunting for beauty, Liu Yi doesn't know if it is because this body is too young, or if his surname has changed after crossing over, and the things he originally had have changed a lot?
Liu Yi thought of the two women in the palace carriage just now, although the two of them were a little frightened and deformed, but the little girl who looked like the owner had a very good-looking nose and mouth, maybe a beauty, who would these two be? Is it an ordinary palace person? Or the emperor's concubine? Princess, princess? Or what?
This may be a mystery who will never have an answer, and he just missed the opportunity to ask, and Liu Yi has no way to know.
However, Liu Yi is also very satisfied with his skills, his shot is like the wind, fast as lightning, and his strength is strong, and now he has kicked a horse with two legs, and the body of the agent and the martial artist is still very good, and a good body should be used to do something!
The father who is in a high position is not in the house, what can he do?
