Chapter 47: South China

After several edicts were read, Liu Xuan directly announced the dissolution of the dynasty.

He knew that these people needed to go back for a while to discuss, in addition to the new six Shangshu needed to draw up a reliable and beneficial candidate, but also to speculate whether the emperor's behavior today had any other meanings.

I'm afraid no one would have thought that Liu Xuan's actions today don't have much meaning at all, he just saw that the current system was too chaotic, so he wanted to eliminate all the bad things, and then form a system that was easier to control and more suitable.

As for grabbing power or something, as long as he sits on the emperor's throne, the power is in his hands, unless someone can push him down from the emperor's position - but if there is such a person, Liu Xuan will not give him this opportunity at all, and will definitely kill him as soon as possible.

Out of the Jinhua Palace, Liu Xuan took a long breath, only to feel refreshed, today's few orders, this group of courtiers will be busy for a while.

What's more, some time ago, they were asked to sort out the sowing matters around Chang'an, so Liu Xuan also took out some jade talismans prepared in the early years, and asked Cao Cao to bury the jade talismans in some key positions, and then pressed them with boulders, so as not to ask people to dig them up.

Those talismans are mainly to moisten the soil, gather the essence of heaven and earth, promote the growth of crops and make the grain harvest, these are related to the foundation of his power, and Liu Xuan can't care about it.

He had already recovered a little bit of his skills and made these talismans little by little, so as to prepare for the future, and he had accumulated a lot of them in the past ten years, and he was just taking them out to use now.

What's more, there is another function implied in this jade talisman, which is to invisibly improve the grain seed - that is, the grain seeds grown under the protection of these jade talismans, even if they are planted in the land without the support of the jade talisman, are still more productive than ordinary grain seeds.

As a result, it will slowly radiate out, and the world will no longer have to worry about the food problem, so the world will naturally be easier to govern - when the people are always not worried about food and clothing, they will not be willing to risk their lives to rebel.

After returning to the Xuan room, Liu Xuan went straight to the study, the Xuan room said that it was a palace, but in fact it was also a small palace group, with all the facilities, the study would naturally not be lacking, but unfortunately there were not many books left, after all, it was too hurried when leaving Luoyang, and there was no time to carry these books and other things.

It is said that Cai Yong collected thousands of volumes, but unfortunately most of them were lost, and only a few hundred volumes were left after coming to Chang'an this time, not only Cai Yong himself felt pity and was very distressed, but even some well-known Confucians in the court and the central government were also very sorry, and many people even wanted to repair a book and send it to Luoyang, asking Dong Zhuo to collect and properly keep those books as much as possible.

Liu Xuan knew that this was because although the Han Dynasty already had papermaking, paper had not really become popular, and the collection of books was mostly made of bamboo compendium, and the recorded content was limited and not easy to carry and preserve, and it was extremely difficult to copy, so books and other items were quite valuable, and being able to have a large collection of books was also a symbol of status at this time.

In the Han Dynasty and the following dynasties, the Shi clan gate lord always controlled the situation in the world, which was also related to the fact that this book could not be popularized, Liu Xuan wanted to fight the Shi clan, and once considered opening a school and popularizing the book in the world, but then it would require perfect papermaking technology - he was not bad at technology, the key was that he didn't have the time to do this.

"It seems that the matter of universal education has to be postponed. ”

Holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, looking at the handwriting that was already a little blurry on it, Liu Xuan's mind was full of whimsical thoughts.

At this moment, Liu Xuan suddenly felt the dragon egg in his body tremble, and a vague sense of crisis hit his heart.

Quietly putting down the scroll in his hand, Liu Xuan touched the Chixiao Sword he was carrying with him - because the dragon qi could not be used, Liu Xuan's priority now when he encountered something wrong was definitely the Chixiao Sword, not his own long knife.

Anyway, the appearance of the Chixiao Sword is the appearance of a bronze sword in the Qin period, the blade is wide and thick, and it is not a big problem to use it as a long knife, not to mention that it mainly relies on the dragon qi in the sword, so the requirements for appearance are not so high.

"Since you're here, why hide your head and show your tail?"

As soon as the words came out, the seemingly empty place gradually revealed the figure of a person, accompanied by a burst of surprise: "You doll is really a bit of a doorway, can you even detect where I am?" It seems that my few unsuccessful disciples did die because of you. ”

In a word, this person's figure and appearance have become extremely clear, Liu Xuan fixed his eyes, and saw that this person had silver hair, thinking that he should be quite old, but his face was like a baby, and he didn't see any wrinkles.

The most peculiar thing is that this person actually has a pair of blue eyes, Liu Xuan took a closer look, and found that these eyes were not innate, there should be some kind of anomaly that made the eyes show a vision.

Looking up and down again, this person was wearing a Taoist robe, although it was not gorgeous, but it was clean and tidy, with a quinoa staff in his hand, and at a glance, the whole person had a sense of being out of the dust, as if he was not like a mortal person.

Liu Xuan looked at the other party here, and the old man also looked at Liu Xuan, seeing that Liu Xuan was holding a long sword, but he didn't pull out the long sword, and his hands were calm, and the sword body did not tremble, which showed that he was not surprised by himself.

At the same time, he did not shout as expected: "Dare to trespass on the forbidden land of the palace!" and other words, which surprised the old man the most.

After a few more glances, I saw Liu Xuan's ape arm and bee waist, although he was tall, he was not stout, but his figure was extremely well-proportioned, and he was holding the hilt of the long sword in his hand, standing there with a faint momentum of looking down on the world.

If it weren't for some reason, the old man would have opened his mouth to praise him, but now was not the right time, not to mention that he was not here today to praise the other party.

But after looking at this for a while, the old man was also secretly surprised, he relied on his cultivation to use the technique of looking forward to qi, and unexpectedly found that the dragon qi in the body of the person in front of him was surging, although it was still the decaying dragon qi of the dynasty, but there was a wonderful feeling of life in death, as if the dragon qi was slowly undergoing mysterious changes in his body.

Although he couldn't see what would turn out of the end, he could conclude that it would not do him any good.

"The Han Dynasty has run out, and it is falling at this time, how can such a variable emerge?"

With a mention of the quinoa staff in his hand, the old man spoke: "I am an old immortal of Nanhua, and Brother Zhang Jiao is the apprentice I have received." ”

As early as when the old man said that his apprentice died because of him, Liu Xuan had already guessed in his heart, and when he saw that he took the initiative to mention Zhang Jiao, he immediately understood what the old man was running here for.

"So, you're trying to assassinate me?"

Although he doesn't like to use the self-title of "I" on weekdays, but that is also the time, and now in the face of an enemy, he doesn't need to be polite to the other party, which will reduce his own identity.

He doesn't know much about Nanhua Laoxian, because there is no such person in the official history, and there is no other record after only mentioning it in the romance.

However, for Liu Xuan, the so-called Nanhua Old Immortal was just a cultivator who originally lived on the earth, no different from his previous life.

If you want to talk about the difference, that is, Liu Xuan in the past has stood at the top of the cultivation world, one of the top few people, and the old Nanhua immortal in front of him ...... It's clearly still at the bottom.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Liu Xuan can easily kill the Nanhua Old Immortal in seconds, after all, Liu Xuan's cultivation is completely wasted, if he hadn't practiced the special technique of dragon qi, he might still be cultivating at the threshold, and then it would have been one hundred and eighty years before he officially stepped into the cultivation threshold. You must know that the last time Liu Xuan went from a layman to the peak, he didn't know how many years he had been cultivating.

The current Nanhua Old Immortal, judging from his appearance, should be over 100 years old, but his cultivation is just like that, and he is not much taller than he is now.

What's more important is that he has dragon qi to protect himself, and all kinds of weird and evil methods can't hurt him, and if he wants to kill himself, he can only fight against himself, and Nanhua Lao Xian came to assassinate himself like this, it's just ...... It was exactly what he wanted.

At the same time, the appearance of Nanhua Old Immortal also allowed Liu Xuan to finally be sure that this world also has a cultivation civilization, but it is very low-end, and even according to his previous theory, it is still in the embryonic stage, and it has not really grown up at all.

If this is the case, it is understandable that Nanhua Lao Xian accepted Zhang Jiao as an apprentice, and at the same time, the reason why he came to avenge Zhang Jiao is also simple and clear. ”

In the final analysis, it was he who hindered Nanhua Laoxian's plan to establish a dynasty with cultivation as the core system, and if Zhang Jiao succeeded, then this world would completely develop in another direction.

However, these are just a reference for Liu Xuan, allowing him to better understand the world, as for the ...... in front of him There's not much nonsense.

"In that case, it is useless to say more. ”

Nanhua Old Immortal was strange, this young man's reaction was too different from ordinary people, he didn't use spells to appear without scaring the other party, but he didn't expect a few words, the other party didn't even bother to ask himself a word, and he directly pulled out the sword from the sheath.

But when Liu Xuan pulled out the long sword, the vermilion brilliance on the blade of the sword flowed up and down, and at the same time, there was a faint dragon hovering on the blade, reflecting the entire study in a burst of red, Nanhua Old Immortal's face finally changed.

"This young man can actually drive dragon qi? Could it be that he is the legendary true dragon emperor?"

Thinking of this, Nanhua Lao Immortal also knew that this matter was a bit tricky today, if it was really the body of the so-called true dragon son of heaven, he was born with the protection of dragon qi, and most of his spells had no effect on him, and if he wanted to kill the other party, he could only rely on his strength to fight hard.

But when he thought about it, he felt that there was nothing to worry about.

"After a hundred years of practice, can't you beat a doll?"

The thoughts in my heart were just together, and I saw the long sword in Liu Xuan's hand raised high, and then slashed down, only to see a flash of red light, and a half-moon sword qi with a trace of vermilion in the dim yellow came straight to the door in front of him.
