Li Yuan felt that the wind around him suddenly became stronger, and he was a little unsteady when it blew.

In the fierce wind, his legs kept shaking involuntarily.

He cursed in his heart, obviously it had not yet entered late autumn, but the weather was already bitterly cold, like a cold winter.

That's right.

It was just that the weather suddenly became cold, and he would never admit that it was full of fear.

Only a slightly cool wind blew Luo Su's hair hanging down his cheeks, and his face was like a crown of jade, showing a romantic posture, Luo Xuanye on his side had already pressed his hand on the sword, he was not joking, as long as Luo Su showed the slightest inclination to kill Li Yuan, he would swing the sword out of the sheath, Luo Xuanjing looked at Li Yuan's uninvited guest with interest.

Li Yuan came here, naturally he was not alone, his wife Dou and his only concubine were there, Dou Hui was very good, of course he understood the danger of the situation at the moment, his face turned pale, he hugged his daughter tightly in his arms, and forced himself to calm down so that he would not be rude and scream.

At this moment, the Dou family only has one thing to be thankful for, that is, the eldest son Jiancheng did not follow Li Yuan to take up the post because he was going to study in Chang'an, but it is a pity that Xiuning, at a young age, is going to die here, she only has this son and a daughter, and regards them as hearts.

Li Yuan and Dou Shi's hearts turned a thousand times, and they were already full of despair, especially the dozens of spirit soldiers who were all indifferent, riding high on their horses, with slices of meat and blood on the knife hooks, and their bodies were filled with the smell of murderous and ruthless, so that both of them knew that they were not lucky, and Li Yuan couldn't even maintain the forced grin on the corner of his mouth.

"Saint, don't kill my father and mother!"

Li Xiuning suddenly broke free of Dou's encircled hands, knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed, raising her little face, she inherited the beauty of Dou and Li Yuan, her face is quite heroic, and there is no lack of softness, although it is not as good as Luo Xuanjing, but it is also a rare beauty, at this moment, this little face is dusty because of kowtowing, tears in his eyes but firmly said: "Daddy is worried about the safety of the saint, and wants to come here to see if there is a chance to save the saint from danger, so there is the current trend, the saint is powerful, talented and sageful, can distinguish between right and wrong, can know the contacts, and must know this section, Ask the sage to see that his father's heart is still good, spare his father's life, and show that he would rather be a cow and a horse, and tie a grass ring to repay this kindness. ”

A little girl who is less than ten years old can see that the situation is not right, it is quite rare, and she can still say such things in an orderly manner, this is not an ordinary person.

Dou and Li Yuan were crazy, they didn't expect Li Xiuning to rush out, their love for their daughter made the two of them temporarily get rid of their fear, hugged Li Xiuning left and right, and cried: "The son spares her life, the little girl is not sensible." ”

The tragedy of destroying the door suddenly turned into a deep love for his son, Luo Xuanjing's eyes drifted up, but Luo Xuanye changed the same, as long as Luo Su didn't speak, he would never change, this is the reason why he was sent out to follow Luo Su, he is a straight man, his life is as straight as his sword, he walks on the road, he will cut all the thorns and go out on a new road, even if there is a majestic avenue next to it.

Luo Su was already laughing, he liked every thing that made him feel alive and real.

He walked up to Li Yuan and the others, looked at Li Xiuning and said, "Little girl, why do you call me a saint?" If I didn't remember, the subjects of the Sui Dynasty called your emperor by this one. ”

Li Xiuning's childish voice sounded, "Mother often said that if the Luoshi family in Zhaocheng is here, it will not make the uncle's family suffer, and every word is full of tears, which can save people's urgency and save people's difficulties, and those who are praised by the world are probably the saints said in ancient times." ”

Luo Su immediately burst out laughing when he heard this, and Luo Xuanjing also covered his mouth and chuckled, but Luo Xuanye was still expressionless, like an ice cube, which made Li Xiuning feel a chill coming from him.

Li Yuan and Dou Shi heard Luo Su's hearty laughter, and the heart that had been carried in their hearts was slightly lowered, and Luo Su smiled and touched Li Xiuning's little head, "What a good boy who is filial, Zhou Li is the first, loyalty and filial piety first." ”

Li Xiuning only felt a burst of warmth coming from Luo Su's hand, making her feel warm all over her body.

Luo Su looked at Li Yuan and said: "Tang Guogong, I, Luo Clan, have always been above board and above board, and have never engaged in those conspiracies, you have never come with malicious intentions, I naturally will not kill innocents indiscriminately, so you don't have to be so nervous, I will not be able to kill you at all."

But there is one thing that comes out of my mouth today, and enters your ears, so that others should not know. ”

When Li Yuan heard this, he heard the amnesty, and the joy on his face couldn't be faked at all, and he said frantically: "Please also ask the son to speak, Yuan will keep it in mind, and will never spread it." ”

Luo Su said slowly: "Killing these guards of the East Palace of the Sui Dynasty today, for ordinary people, it is a capital crime, I don't care, but I don't want to cause trouble, after all, I still have to travel in this world, if I fight with the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty every day, it will delay my major affairs."

Tang Guogong is a nobleman of the country, but I still advise you not to spread this matter.

Look at this vast country, looking to the west is Qishan, looking to the east is Lishan, these 800 miles of fertile land in Tianfu, how many dynasties have passed?

Zhou, Qin, Han and Sui, how many countries in this world have swirled and perished, so where are the countries of Jin, Qin, Qi, Chu, Zhao, Wei and Han now?

But only I, Luo's, still exist in this world, I will comment on the merits of the thousand years, and I will be in charge after a hundred generations, whether I am inclined to the Sui Dynasty royal family, or inclined to my Luo, Tang Guogong should have a scale in his heart.

I sit on the top of the mountains and rivers, watching the spring and autumn when all the countries are made of soil, that's all. ”

These words made Li Yuan feel a strong sense of time from Luo Su, he felt that what he was standing in front of him was not a living person, but an ancient person who had come here from a long time ago, and the heaviness brought by the passage of time was almost extremely strong in Luo Su.

He was obviously not a few years older than the man next to him, but the two of them felt like a hundred years and a thousand years apart, if Li Yuan were to describe it, he would think that Luo Su was the one who walked down from those murals of the ancient era.

Li Yuan was shocked by Luo Su's remarks, and for the first time he felt ashamed of himself, what is the so-called title of Duke of Tang?

"Tang Guogong."

Luo Su with a little nostalgia, "The land of the king of Tang Yu, when I was in the land of the king of Tang Yu, I divided the Marquis of Jin, which is probably our fate." ”

Li Yuan's head was already a little confused, so he could only say: "Don't worry, Childe, Yuan knows what to do, and there will definitely not be the slightest rumor leaking." ”

Luo Su looked at Li Xiuning again, thought about it, reached out and took out a warm jade pendant from his waist, put it in Li Xiuning's hand, and said to Li Yuan and Dou Shi: "This little girl, I like it very much, I want to give her a fortune, marry Luo Shi in the future, I will find her a husband who is the best in the world." ”

What is peak loop turning?

What do you mean by bright flowers?

What is a surprise?

Now Li Yuan wanted to immediately pull someone over from the side of the road and ask him, what is called a surprise, what is a surprise of TMD!

A woman from the Dou clan reacted faster, and immediately kowtowed to Luo Su according to Li Xiuning's head, wanting to settle this matter.

Luo Xuanjing thinks it is very reasonable, this little girl is very in line with Luo's criteria for finding a daughter-in-law, and the most important thing is that the ancestors like it, that is, they like it.

She didn't wait for the Dou clan to speak, so she preemptively spoke: "Don't call Gongzi, this is the ancestor of my Luo clan, just call the old ancestor."

Tang Guogong and his wife's words, the ancestors are very old, you can just call the old gentleman. ”

Ancestor?

Old gentleman?

So young but called an ancestor?

If it was an ordinary family, it would be fine, but this is Luo's.

As far as Li Yuan and Dou know, the lineage is no more than three generations, and the Luo family basically does not have a big difference in age and generation.

But the Luo family said so themselves, Li Yuan and the Dou family knew that there must be a reason, Li Xiuning kowtowed to the ground, and called the old ancestor.

She was still a little confused, she didn't know what was going on, and suddenly she had a fiancé who didn't know what to call it, but she was smart enough to know that her parents must be safe now, so she also had a bright smile on her face.

Luo Xuan's night melted like ice and snow, and when Li Xiuning kowtowed, he released the hand that was pressed on the sword, a slight smile appeared on his face, and the gaze of Li Yuan and the three of them instantly became kind.

His change of face was too obvious, he was like a killing god before, but now he was warm and warm like the wind in March, and as soon as the pressure was relaxed, Luo Xuanye arched his hand and said: "Gong Li, madam, I offended a lot just now, I hope to forgive me, we will be a family in the future, when the noble girl gets married, Xuanye will bring gifts to the door to make amends." ”

Li Yuan hurriedly said no, Luo Xuanye stopped talking, and when Luo Su and his party left along the avenue, Li Yuan and the three of them were still dizzy, as if they were in a dream.

The scene they encountered just now was like a dream for the three of them, as soon as the wind blew, the cold sweat just now was dripping, and they were even more cold, Li Yuan and Dou came back to their senses, and looked at the jade pendant in Li Xiuning's hand, and suddenly for a while.

"I'm Li, really climbed up to Luo's? No, Luo's really returned to the Central Plains? ”

Li Yuan is already a little unscrupulous, he values his family and background the most, and Luo's in his opinion, that is the highest and highest background, unless he can be the queen, nothing can compare to Luo's marriage.

"This is really a blessing and a curse, a blessing and a curse, such a peak and a turn, just like those absurd legends, I didn't expect it to really let us meet, Xiuning is really blessed, since he was a child, he said that Xiuning is not an ordinary person, there is great wealth, and now it seems that this is really the case."

Dou's mouth couldn't stop saying at all, as a mother, she naturally paid the most attention to the marriage of her children, especially the marriage of these powerful and high-ranking families, many times it was difficult to make decisions, and it was already a blessing to meet Luo's.

The breeze blew, rolling up a few withered yellow leaves scattered on the ground, Li Xiuning tightly held the warm jade pendant in her hand, now the autumn is crisp, the blue sky is like clouds, but in her little heart there is a blue sea and waves that no one knows.

After Luo Su and the three of them left, chatting about the joke just now, Luo Xuanjing suddenly asked: "Old Ancestor, you just said that you would never kill that Tang Guogong, did you really not think about killing that Tang Guogong?" Or that whoever it was at the time, you wouldn't have killed him? ”

Luo Su said softly with a smile on his face: "Li Yuan, I won't kill him, I don't talk to him much, but I can already see that he is a smart person and will not reveal our whereabouts, if you meet a not very smart person, then the result will naturally be different, I have compassion, and I also have thunderbolt means, in this world, the more ruthless the means, the more you can be a good person." ”

Luo Xuanjing smiled when he heard this, and sure enough, he asked again: "Old Ancestor, that Miss Li, can you send a letter to Winterfell and let the family choose the right candidate?" ”

When Luo Su heard this, he looked directly at Luo Xuanye and said with a smile: "Jing'er, what do you think of Ah Ye?" With a dignified appearance, a talent, a man of letters, and a noble birth, isn't he a good candidate for a husband? ”

Luo Xuanye didn't hold back at this time, and Luo Xuanjing directly covered his mouth and laughed, but still expressed his approval, "The fifth brother is indeed the right uncle, and he must be happy to know this news." ”

……

This incident can only be regarded as a small episode for the three of Luo Su at best, this journey is thousands of miles away, and I don't know how many emergencies they encountered, when dozens of people chased thousands of people on the grassland and slashed and killed, the scene was much better than now.

Along the way, there were not 800 but 1,000 people killed, and these dozens of people were just trivial.

On the next journey, there were no more accidents, and Luo Su successfully arrived at the destination of this trip, Lishan.

The three of them, who were laughing all the way, arrived here, and the atmosphere suddenly became low, Luo Su stepped out of the carriage, looked at the sparse Lishan Mountain, and said with emotion: "Do you know?

When I was here three times, the princes of the world all led their own soldiers to come, by my review, the order of the pickaxe, the princes did not dare to disobey, that dignified majesty, until now is still echoing in my heart.

Unexpectedly, just more than a hundred years later, this place has turned into the place where Zhou Tianzi died.

The son of Zhou Tianzi who died here is the king of Zhou You, this nickname is good, the incompetent king, the son of heaven who caused chaos in the state of Zhou Sheji, deserves such an end.

It's a pity that I can't sacrifice him to my ancestors with my own hands, it's hateful. ”

Luo Xuanye and Luo Xuanjing both listened silently and did not speak, Gong Ancestor Wen was usually very peaceful, and only when it came to Bang Zhou, there would be relatively large mood swings.

Time can't erase his feelings for Bang Zhou, and the years can't kill a little of his deep love for Bang Zhou, as people who have been with Lao Zu, of course they know, silence is the best way now.

Luo Su climbed Lishan and looked in all directions, he naturally couldn't see the pickaxe capital in the past, there was only sparse grass and trees here, the magnificent pickaxe capital was already difficult to see even the ruins of the wall, and the palace of the Qin Dynasty had long been burned to ashes in the fire, and all the prosperity had disappeared.

Leaving only the not-so-magnificent water and decaying flowers, and the misty woods, faintly squirrels emerging from the woods, Rosu finally felt that the era he had been haunting had passed.

Bang Zhou and Chu are already in the past.

Hokyo and Toyoseong are both in the past.

King Zhou Li turned into soil, and King Zhou Zhao also turned into soil.

He was the only person left of the old era, and the reckless and grand loneliness suddenly swept over him, as if the loneliness of thousands of years in the depths of the universe made him a little breathless.

Endless darkness enveloped him.

"The gods of King Su are in the sky, and they will be glorious and famous for thousands of years!

The gods of King Su are in the sky, bless their descendants and prolong their lives! ”

He sang as if no one was around him, singing the oldest sacred songs, as if returning to the era when he was the great patriarch.

……

Changan.

Luoyang is a holy city, but Chang'an is recognized as the imperial capital, in this era with a population of about fifty or sixty million, the advantage of Guanzhong is too obvious, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it can be described as the solid city of gold.

After the Sui Dynasty rebuilt the capital here, with the investment of a large number of resources, Chang'an had a bit of the heyday of the Han Dynasty.

The canals that lead from Weishui bypass the uneven hills and eventually converge in Yongzhou, with Chang'an as the center, and these rivers are like jade belts.

This is the pattern of eight rivers around Chang'an, although the current Guanzhong is not as good as the Han Dynasty, this is a helpless thing when Guanzhong and Kanto competed, in order to win the final victory, the development of Guanzhong was exhausted.

Until now, it has not recovered, and this unconscious recovery, especially when it is damaged from time to time, the deterioration of the ecological environment is inevitable.

For Luo Su, the changes here are even greater, what era was he back then, when there were primeval forests everywhere, and the Weishui in Guanzhong was much more turbulent than the Weishui now.

Luo Su traveled all over the world, so he naturally wanted to come to the capital to have a look, this should theoretically be the most peaceful place in the whole world, if even the capital is not stable, then this dynasty will not last long.

The imperial capital of a dynastic country can largely represent the future of the entire country.

Because the emperor is a benchmark, what it represents is to tell the people of the world that this is the direction of future development, and it cannot be reached now because of objective reasons, which is equivalent to drawing a big pie for the people of the world, as for whether it can be realized, it depends on what the rulers do.

But if you don't even paint the bread, just like in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the emperor didn't have the appearance of an imperial capital, and like all other places, there was chaos and killing, then the consciousness of the whole country would fall into chaos.

In the Sui Dynasty, the new Chang'an City called Daxing City was very prosperous.

This level of prosperity is unheard of by Luo Su, unseen and unseen, the productivity of his time is completely different from now, it is inconceivable that the capital city can have a population of 100,000, but Chang'an is far more than 100,000.

What did Luo Su do when he came to Chang'an City?

He came to see the systems and laws of Chang'an, as well as the implementation of these systems and laws, on the one hand, to see the level of those think tanks in the Sui Dynasty, and on the other hand, to see the Sui Dynasty's control of the grassroots.

The group found an inn, Luo Xuanye and Luo Xuanjing cleaned up for Luo Su with their hands and feet, Luo Su sat at the table and drank tea and sighed: "This Sui Dynasty is a dynasty that is extremely different from the previous dynasties, and its internal political operation logic has undergone tremendous changes, we must study this change carefully, it seems that we will stay in Chang'an for a few more days." ”

This is Luo Su's conclusion about the Sui Dynasty after these years of understanding, which makes Luo Xuanye and Luo Xuanjing a little puzzled, in their opinion, the Sui Dynasty is no different from the Han Dynasty recorded in the classics.

Luo Su knew that this was not something that could be finished in a few words, so he pointed to the bed and asked the two to sit down, and he lectured directly to the two of them in the room: "You can't look at things on the surface, just like Zhou Tianzi, Han Tianzi and Sui Tianzi, but the name is the same, but the inside is completely different.

Haven't you or your family ever thought about why it took hundreds of years of annexation wars in the Bang Zhou era to finally decide a victor and finally unify the world?

The establishment of the Sui Dynasty is the same thing, the great collapse of the Han Dynasty is due to a change in the logic of the bottom of society, and this change is multifaceted, first from the economic aspect.

There is a lot of research on Bang Zhou in the family classics, Bang Zhou because of the collapse of the well field system, and because of the rise of iron tools, so the whole society has undergone a great change, and because Bang Zhou has a large number of mediocre monarchs, can not follow this trend, the collapse of etiquette and happiness accelerated the collapse of politics, and finally caused the collapse of Bang Zhou.

In the world after the Qin and Han dynasties, who do you say is the root of Zhuxia? ”

Luo Xuanye and Luo Xuanjing said without hesitation: "Homesteaders and small landlords! ”

This is the result of Luo's research, the brother and sister have naturally learned, Luo Su has basically read all the classics in Luo's family, and he said in a deep voice: "But since the Later Han Dynasty, the real power in the world is the big landlord, so political chaos appears frequently, coupled with the same series of things that trample on the bottom line, so it once again created a great chaos, this is the second time after Bang Zhou."

And to no lesser extent than the last, the new dynasty should have taken on the heavy responsibility of reshaping civilization and values, as the Han dynasty did, raising loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness to a level beyond the reach of the collapse of Zhouli values.

But the Sui Dynasty has a congenital deficiency, it bullied orphans and widows to take the throne, and it also brutally cleaned the royal family before and after the throne, this matter is not right or wrong, it maintains the political stability of the Sui Dynasty today, but if you want to do something big, you will have concerns.

Especially now this Sui Dynasty emperor, compared to those top saints, there is still a big gap, these days of travel in Guanzhong, I think you also know some of the shortcomings of the Sui Dynasty.

I have a trace of doubt about whether the current Son of Heaven can reshape the value of the world, clean up the messed people's hearts again, and let the world come to a truly prosperous world. ”

Luo Xuanye, who had always been cold-faced, didn't expect Luo Su to say this, and asked in surprise that he would raise such a question about today's son: "Ancestor, aren't you going to enter the court to perform?" ”

"Into the court?"

Luo Su smiled softly and said, "What official position and title do you think the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty should give me?" ”

"Uh......"

Luo Xuanye was suddenly asked, hesitated for a long time and said, "Wangjue? The Great Prime Minister? ”

These two are already the highest treatment for courtiers, the great prime minister who has not appeared for hundreds of years, and almost no prince with a foreign surname has been given during his lifetime, even if they are given to the head of the Luo family, they are also extremely high courtesy.

But Luo Xuanye scratched his head after finishing speaking, I don't know if he thinks so alone, even if the two are added to the ancestor together, there is a very strange feeling.

Similarly, you are also worthy of giving me a knighthood?

Even if this kind of thing is said by the head of the Luo family to the Son of Heaven, it is a little too arrogant, after all, this world is the world of the Son of Heaven, but if these words come out of Luo Su's mouth, there is not the slightest weirdness.

What is Lorwen Gong?

That is the ancient sage in the hundred classics of Zhuzi, his time is too long, he is no longer a simple person, but an abstract symbol.

It's like mentioning Bigan, which is equivalent to being a loyal minister.

When people in the world mention the ancient kings, they will always think of those names, and when it comes to the ancient virtuous ministers, it will never be possible to avoid the Duke of Luowen.

He is already divine!

"I am a courtier of the Great Zhou, I used to be loyal to the Son of Heaven of the Great Zhou, and now I am not loyal to the Son of Heaven of the Sui Dynasty.

If you can cooperate with him and revitalize Zhuxia together, it will naturally be the best, but with the experience of this Son of Heaven, the suspicion and sensitivity caused by it may be a little difficult. ”

Luo Xuanjing and the others had never thought that it would be such a scene before, "Then the old ancestor will ...... after you"

Luo Su came to the world with a great cause, this is something that the Luo family knows, and now if he does not enter the court as an official, how can he achieve a great cause?

Luo Su naturally knew what the two of them were thinking, and smiled indifferently: "I won't marry a wife and have children in the world, and I won't leave the world after a hundred years, won't it be the family that will remain in the world at that time?"

You are my eyes, my hands and feet, my mind and everything, after the return of the Luo clan, it must not be a difficult thing to occupy a high position in the Sui Dynasty, just do something through you. ”

Luo Xuanjing and Luo Xuanye glanced at each other, and both nodded seriously.

……

While Luo Su and the others were talking, a horse galloped into the East Palace, walked in quickly with a panicked face, and immediately said when he met the guard: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in the palace?" There is a major event report, and the palace people who traveled before all died on the post road. ”

What?

The palace suddenly fell into the midst of chickens and dogs, and the palace people who traveled in the East Palace died on the post road, which was a big event.

Who did it?

In the eyes of each other, I only feel frightened!

————

When Gaozu was in Sui, he moved to Qizhou to assassinate the history, the road met Wen Gong, Wen Gong was holy, the emperor was very different, thought that he was a hero, and then he was born with the heart of the knot, Wen Gong looked at Gao Zu's face, majestic and slight, there was a person who was the main face, very strange, talked very happily, when Pingyang summoned the princess was also on the side, Wen Gong was very happy with Pingyang, so he asked Gao Zu marriage, Gao Zu was pleased.

and the great dynasty, there are quite rumors, talking about Gaozu, Gaozu is quite angry, saying left and right: "I and Mr. are like each other at first sight, and they are gentlemen's friends." ”

Wen Gong also said left and right: "Gao Zu is elegant and magnanimous, and has the style of Henkel." ”

The rumors stopped. ——"Old Tang Book: Gaozu Benji"
