Tang Dynasty:

At this moment, in the Chengdu Imperial Palace, in the pavilion of the Imperial Garden. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoTang Emperor Li Longji is summoning a mission that has just returned from the West. After the three kneeling and nine bowing salutes were completed, the envoy sat down and explained to Li Longji in detail what he had gained from his trip to the West.

Of course, in fact, this mission actually didn't have much significance -- in Li Longji's view, first, he had made such powerful allies as the Mongol Khanate, and there was no need to make friends with more distant and unremarkable countries. The second is that the Timurid Khanate has now taken the initiative to retreat. According to the history books of the Tang Dynasty, it was defeated by the Holy Son of Heaven. Bow down to the courtiers, pay tribute every year, and come to the court every year. has become Lao Tzu's foreign vassal......

Whoever really believes in this kind of thing is an idiot. However, Li Longji just believed. I don't know if he's overconfident, or if he's an idiot himself.

Therefore, now in Li Longji's view. The Tang Dynasty is peaceful and the people are abundant. As long as you defeat Jiangnan's handful of jumping clowns again. Then he will truly dominate the world and achieve the great cause of Yao Shunyu soup.

So today, the old emperor, who is almost sixty years old, would not have needed to summon the mission. That's why they were called. I just want to hear something new from a distant place. It's just a matter of relieving boredom.

So, the Tang Emperor asked, and the envoy replied. That's it, it's a question and an answer. Soon asked: "Who is the strongest in the countries of the Western Regions now, and how many places are there?"

The envoy replied, "The land of the West is narrow and barren, and countries such as France and Germany are no more than small states. Such as Korea, the land of South Vietnam, is not enough. There are only four major powers. Two Faith Gods, named Rome, are the Great Qin of the previous legend, and the other is Norman. The other two believe in Allah, one of which is a kingdom founded by the remnants of the Turks. The other was Egypt, built by the Arabs. ”

Emperor Tang nodded: "It seems that such a small state is not comparable to the Celestial Empire." ”

The eunuch Yu Chaoen on the side said: "That's nature, Your Majesty's martial arts are unparalleled in the world." How can a small country in Fanbang compare to Your Majesty. ”

Hearing their lords and servants boasting so much. The envoys of several missions next to each other exchanged glances, and they could all see the smiles in each other's eyes. Sitting in the well and watching the sky, Yelang is arrogant. That's what we're talking about...... Of course, it can't be said. Not even a single movement, voice, expression can be expressed. Otherwise, you're in trouble......

The envoy also knew that his majesty was so happy. Naturally, he would not refute what he said, and echoed with a smile: "What Your Majesty said is extremely true. Now the dynasty is extremely prosperous. His Majesty's merits are better than the three emperors, and his virtue is better than the five emperors. can be called the first emperor of the ages. ”

At this time, the envoy said, "However, although the moral knowledge of such a small state is not sufficient. But the way of craftsmanship is also outstanding. Just like the Norman kings, they had great respect for the Celestial Empire. This time, there will be a tribute from the best of the best. ”

"Oh, what is it, can the Qing family comment like this?" Li Longji had long noticed that there were several envoys in the mission carrying several wooden boxes with styles that were very different from those in the Central Plains. I know that it must be a treasure of the Western Regions. It's just that the other party doesn't say it, and it's not easy to ask about being the emperor himself.

"Your Majesty will know at a glance. The envoy smiled. Turning around and motioning to his deputies, he opened the box he was holding. Under the sunlight, I saw a crystal bright inside a box, which was a handful of pearls, and another box was beautifully carved, which was a lifelike phoenix statue with four wings and three claws. And the third box, Li Longji was shocked when he saw it: "Ah, how did I run into that box?!" The figure in the mirror is exactly as delicate. It's much better than polishing the best bronze mirrors.

"One of these three things is a glass pearl, the second is a glass phoenix, and the third is a glass mirror. All of them were made by Norman craftsmen. The Norman kings admired the Celestial Empire. Therefore to my lord. The envoy looked at Li Longji's surprised look. I thought that the ten thousand taels of gold flowers were worth. This time the errand is well done, and the promotion and fortune are just around the corner......

Li Longji walked away, picked up a handful of glass beads and released them, picked up the glass phoenix and looked at it again, and finally picked up the glass mirror and looked at it for a long time. With a smile on his face, he said something that he didn't understand...... Of course, perhaps in Tang Minghuang's heart, this is already a high-standard compliment.

"Okay! The small country of Fanbang is also effectively loyal to the monarch's father. The Norman king was commendable. I gave the Norman country a name change to the glass country, gave a hundred pairs of jade, ten pairs of jade Ruyi, a hundred pairs of rare ornaments, a thousand horses of silk, and ten thousand taels of gold to improve its sincerity!" Plus other treasures or something. You can exchange hundreds of thousands of gold coins in the system. All Egil had spent was a few pieces of quartz sand, except for the ten gold coins he used to gilt the mirror. It's a good deal with a lot of profits.

"This is all due to His Majesty's virtue. The Holy Son of Heaven is coming, all nations are coming, long live my emperor, long live long live long live the mouth!" Yu Chaoen lost no time in kneeling and chanting the holy way.

Hearing his subordinates sing such praises of virtue, Li Longji laughed. The mood is very happy...... However, he didn't know that prosperity and decline, happiness and sorrow, at this moment, in the dark forbidden palace dungeon, a catastrophe came without warning......

This cell, built underground, has no windows and no light source. Unlike other prisons, the floor was unusually clean, free of dirt and dust, snakes, insects, rats, ants and the like. In this darkness, there was no sound either. Time seems to have frozen. It makes people feel extremely depressed.

Ordinary normal people will become insane after being locked up in this kind of place for a period of time. It can be seen that it is used to detain, or rather, to punish prisoners who have committed extreme crimes.

At the same time as Li Longji was laughing, the heavy iron door of this cell was quietly opened. The few who came in weren't dressed as jailers - not prisoners, of course. Instead, there were a few people wearing Taoist robes, wearing hosta hairpins, and dressed as Taoist priests. These people are like stars and moons, surrounded by an old Taoist priest with white hair. The candlelight in the Taoist priest's hand shone like this, and he saw what was being held in this cell......

On the wall opposite these Taoist priests, a stainless steel iron lock locked something that looked like a human form, but was really a little infiltrating. The thing was wrinkled all over its body. Dry and shriveled. It's like there's just one layer of human skin and one layer of bones. All the teeth in that mouth were gone. The eye sockets are deep, but the eyeballs don't know where they go. The nose and ears are collapsed and obscenely deformed...... If it weren't for the fact that the two deformed noses of this thing were still moving a little bit, no one would have thought of her as a living thing.

"Alright, let's just come as usual. The old Taoist priest commanded. A few little Taoist priests immediately took down the medicine box they were carrying. Pulled out a pile of strong-smelling herbs, ointments, and other messy things. He took out a pestle and a medicine jar. Skillfully put these herbs in and start pounding the medicine. However, at this time, the sentence that only a mouthful of money was the same thing suddenly struggled violently. Immediately after that, the seven orifices bled out, and he said these things in his mouth.

When the old man saw it, he was shocked. Hurriedly took out the silver needle and stepped forward, sealing the large number of acupoints of this living dead man at an extremely fast speed. However, in the end, it was still a step too late - the person who had already exhausted the last bit of strength in his body finally swallowed his breath......

"Oh my God......" Lao Dao's face turned pale for a moment. Immediately afterwards, he fell to the ground very much, and cried loudly: "Teacher, the disciple is ashamed of his teacher's teachings...... This thing that suppressed luck still failed to save ...... after all."

A group of little Taoist priests were already panicked at this moment, and a few of them ran over to persuade the old Taoist priest, like the old Taoist priest fell to the ground, his eyes were dull and even he cried, and some were scared enough, remembering that Wang Fa was severe. Fear of the crime of killing the head. I'm scared enough......

This is the one who just died, and it is called the one that suppresses luck. His name is Wu Zetian.

Back then, Tang Taizong Li Shimin killed his brother and imprisoned his father to steal the throne. It has long been asserted that Tang should be transported by Qin and died in the third generation. Taizong meditated. Sleepless nights. But there is nothing to be done. In the end, it was Yuan Tiangang who sat down with the Taoist, and Li Chunfeng's master and apprentice came up with the idea.

"All the changes of dynasties are related to luck. Although Tianding Tang is the same as Qin Yun. However, it is not irreversible. ”

At that time, Taizong was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked: "What is the magic method of the real person that can continue my Tang Dynasty national fortune?"

Yuan Tiangang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, hasn't you heard the story of Wang Mang's usurpation of the Han Dynasty?"

Taizong Qi said: "Wang Mang's usurpation of the Han Dynasty, I naturally know. But what does this have to do with luck?"

Yuan Tiangang then explained: "Back then, Liu Bang was called the emperor of the Han Dynasty. Originally, there should have only been a 200-year national fortune. Then the heavens belong to the new dynasty. However, Han has alchemists. When the fortunes of the Han Dynasty were declining, he stole the sky and changed the law, and moved flowers and trees. Choosing the man of destiny. He pretended to hand over the government's political program to him. Let it stand on its own feet. However, secretly, the national fortunes of the new dynasty were intercepted from the Han Dynasty. He also refined Wang Mang into an immortal body, suppressed luck, and faked the mandate of heaven. In this way, the national fortune has continued for another 200 years. ”

Taizong nodded when he heard the Taoist's explanation, and then asked, "What exactly is the immortal body you are talking about?!" It seems that he is more interested in continuing the national fortunes of the Tang Dynasty - all monarchs want to live forever. This is it.

"Your Majesty. Yuan Tiangang already knew that Taizong had this question, so he continued: "When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty intended to live forever, that magic was invented by the alchemists of the Han Dynasty. It's just that the Danfang can extend its life. However, it is not a good way to live forever. ”

Taizong was surprised, and then asked, "Why is that?"

"It's just that this thing can prolong life. However, it is physically and mentally devastating for the person taking the drug. You can only not die, but you must not grow old. After a hundred years, he is deaf and blind, unable to speak, and unable to move his limbs. It's completely better to live than to die......"

Taizong felt creepy after hearing this. I didn't dare to think about immortality, so I didn't ask anymore, and then asked Yuan Tiangang to tell me about the method of transferring flowers and grafting trees and intercepting luck.

So Yuan Tiangang continued: "The dynasty now has only three generations of luck. That is to say, His Majesty was not seriously injured when he came to court. It wasn't until the time of the crown prince that something would happen. Therefore, the usurper must be someone of the same age as the crown prince. My master and apprentice should visit the world for Your Majesty to find the people of destiny. After that, he was sent to the court. His Majesty then consulted with the crown prince to emulate Han's example of Wang Mang. At that time, if the old road is still there, it will be presided over by the old road, and the new dynasty will be intercepted and transferred to the Tang Dynasty. and then when his popularity is declining and he is defeated, he will be made into a suppressed luck and an immortal body. When the time comes, Your Majesty's country will naturally be stable......"

Taizong nodded silently. After taking Yuan Tiangang's master and apprentice away, he ordered the prince to be summoned over and informed the prince of the matter. He consulted with him and devised a plan......

Later, Yuan Tiangang's master and apprentice visited the world, but finally found that the person with the dragon vein turned out to be a woman. He returned to the palace and informed Emperor Taizong of the matter. Emperor Taizong then summoned this woman to the palace and gave her the name Mei Niang. As a pamper.

After the death of Taizong, the new monarch ascended the throne, that is, Tang Gaozong, although he was not the previous prince, but he also knew the method of changing and intercepting luck. And he did as his father told him when he was dying. continues to favor the daughter of the Wu family, from the concubine to the queen, and even wants to give up the government. In the end, it was even called a double saint with itself.

After Gaozong's death, the Wu clan deposed the emperor and controlled the government. In the end, the country name was changed to Zhou, which means to start over and over again. became the only female emperor for the ages. During his reign, there was no way to save money, brutally suppressed internally, and repeatedly failed to use troops externally. Lost his teacher and lost his ground. The reform and reform were even more of a mess. In the end, before he died, he was counterattacked by Li Tang. It was refined by Yuan Tiangang's disciple Sun with the medicine of immortality to make the living dead who are immortal. was placed in the palace prison to suppress Li Tang's luck until now......

Now, however, the orthodox emperor of Wu Zhou is dead. Wu Zhou was destroyed. And the luck that Li Tang intercepted from Wu Zhou also disappeared. The kings above the palace are mixed, and they are so happy. Incompetent flatterers are in vogue. In the army, the wolf's ambition and the wild man control the military power. The surrounding tigers and wolves are fed, and the people are struggling to make a living. And Li Longji, the emperor of Tang Ming, still dreamed of the heavenly kingdom and the coming dynasty of all nations......

In the Tang Dynasty, the number of qi was exhausted, and the land south of the Yangtze River was the dragon lurking in the abyss. The real name of the Son of Heaven is Zhu Yuanzhang. Now it has occupied the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties. It occupies an excellent advantage among the many recklessness in the south of the Yangtze River. There are Liu Bowen, Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Lan Yu and other generals. Full of wings, just waiting to soar into the sky, a blockbuster!

Southeast Asia: ...... zzz...... Banana...... The countries of Southeast Asia are still in a state of no purpose, no ambition, and no civilization. It has no impact on the world situation.
