The wind rolls the weak willows, the sky is red all over the sky, the sky and the clouds and water are dyed and colored, the stone road of Qingtai Tandao in Jinling City reflects the sun and shines, and the water of the Buddha Road River shines on the shadow of hundreds of people, everyone looks down and stands, solemn and solemn.

Looking all the way north, the honor guard is like a long dragon lying on the plate. However, this road to Shicheng Qingliang Avenue is full of monks standing with their palms together.

Within a radius of 100 miles, the Buddhist temple is widely distributed, and there are many palace walls in the temple. The stone steps of the temple are more than 100 meters up and down, and there are guards with armor and knives on the left and right sides of the stone steps. The hats and uniforms of the high-ranking people and officials are mixed, and the officials are neatly lined up outside the Baoci Temple, and some people have calm faces; Some look at reverence; Someone had an indignant expression.

From the place where the people and ministers stand downward, the rules of honor gradually change from large to small, and are divided into three categories: big driving, Buddha driving, and small driving. But most officials know that since the successor Li Yu succeeded to the throne, the law driving has been changed to the Buddha driving, and the Buddha driving has been made equal to the regulations of the big driving and even the dragon driving, and they are driven side by side.

When the front-row officials saw Li Yu kneeling at the sight of the Buddha in the hall, they also hurriedly bowed to the ground, and the officials in the rear knelt in turn. saw an official in the front row suddenly stand up and curse angrily to the hall.

"My lord has succeeded to the throne so far, he has not been in the people, he has not asked about the government, he has not paid attention to the country, and now he kneels when he sees a fake Buddha, and he is so stupid! Is it to die in chaos with Yizong? ”

Xu Xuan, the intellectuals beside him, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly pulled Ney Shi Panyou down.

"Pan You! You dare to slander the Buddha, and you dare to speak disrespectfully to the lord of the country. ”

"Hahaha, that Zhao Kuangyin has been the emperor of Zhou since then, and he has long been eyeing my Tang Kingdom, does my lord really think that if he goes to the emperor and gives gold, silver and jade silk, he can steal peace!"

"Someone! Take down this kingless and fatherless arrogant! ”

"Fu Qing, step aside."

But seeing Li Yu in the Buddha Hall, he suddenly stood up, spit out four words with an expressionless face, and then walked out of the Buddha Hall and looked at Pan You meaningfully. Then he sat on the big car and set off back to the palace.

Pan You was also stunned by Li Yu's unwavering eyes, and then lowered his head. In history, Pan You died because of slandering the Buddha and directly admonishing Li Yu, and after Li Yu died in the Tang Dynasty and was escorted back to Bianjing by the Northern Song Dynasty, he hugged Xu Xuan and cried, repenting of killing Pan You.

But today Pan You has just reached this level, Li Yu has not moved to kill, does he really not want to kill? Yes, if Li Yu had been replaced a few days ago, he would have wanted to get rid of Pan You. However, the current Li Yu is not the real lord of the Jiangnan Tang Dynasty.

However, most of the loyal ministers did not feel relieved for long because Li Yu did not kill Pan You, especially Han Xizai, the Chinese scholar, Tang Yue, Zhang Tong and others with sad faces.

Where does suffering come from? Only because these people engaged in the Tang Dynasty, to the time of the lord Li Jing and the Northern Zhou War was not only passive all the year round, and repeatedly defeated, the Later Zhou Emperor Chai Rong three expeditions to the Southern Tang Dynasty were all victorious, the lord Li Jing was beaten back to Jinling, moved the capital to Yuzhang.

Soon after the capital was moved, the lord died of depression. In the same year, Zhao Kuangyin seized Zhou Jiansong, successively released military power with a glass of wine, established a recruitment system, stabilized the dynasty, and eyed the Southern Tang Dynasty.

However, Li Yu, who succeeded to the throne, did not think about protecting the territory and the people, and organized the army to resist the Song Dynasty, but depreciated himself, abolished the Tang Dynasty as the lord of Jiangnan, and was obsessed with Buddhism, ignored political affairs, and favored Fu Hong, Meng Ju and other traitorous ministers. After less than ten years of going on like this, the Southern Tang Dynasty was destroyed by Zhao Kuangyin of the Northern Song Dynasty sooner or later.

However, it is not only these loyal ministers of the Southern Tang Dynasty who are worried, Li Xiang, who has crossed over from modern times, is also worried about the book, a few days ago his soul passed through, and accidentally found himself wearing it on Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

At this time, it was only more than ten years since Zhao Kuangyin broke through the Southern Tang Dynasty, and in history, Li Yu died extremely tragically, and after being escorted to Bianjing, he watched his wife Xiao Zhou Hou be humiliated to death by Emperor Taizong of the Northern Song Dynasty Zhao Guangyi, and he was also given a thousand machines on his forty-third birthday and died, leaving only the reputation of an emperor of eternal words and a melancholy emperor.

Pan You, who was kneeling outside the Baoci Hospital, was not only frightened at this moment, but also full of questions. Today, he was admonished with the determination to die, so Li Yu didn't kill himself, and he drove back to the palace quietly.

Most of the courtiers outside the courtyard have left, for fear of being implicated, everyone knows that the Lord worships the Buddha and does everything he can, building a thousand temples in Jinling City, and even building Deqing Hall directly in the temple, simply living at the foot of the Buddha for dozens of days and not returning to the Guangzheng Hall to govern.

"Pan Neishi, don't do what you do today in the future, beware of causing trouble to your family!" At this time, Xu Xuan, who knew the system, lowered his body to help Pan You up.

"Did you say that the lord of the country lost his memory after falling into the river, he used to live in the Deqing Hall of the Baoci Academy, but today he changed his usual routine and drove back to the Guangzheng Palace, and today in the hall, he actually asked the traitor about the border defense."

Pan You began to recall that Li Yu fell into the river before, and when he woke up, he suddenly seemed to be a different person, and grabbed Han Wenqing's collar and asked him where he was, what year, and who was behind him.

"Don't talk nonsense! You and I better hurry back home, don't delay the hour. ”

"The lord of the country has an order, and it is said that Shi Panyou will be held accountable for entering the palace!"

Pan You heard the words of the eunuch behind him, and then sighed and slowly stood up. That's right, the lord of the country attaches so much importance to the Buddha, how can he be angry in this so-called holy place of Buddhism, plus Fu, Meng and the others are favored by the Buddha after the succession of the latter lord, exclude dissidents in the court, and always blow the wind in the ears of the lord of the country.

At this time, Li Yu, who was dressed in a yellow robe in Xingqing Palace, sat on a chair, flipped through the table with his hand, and got up and paced back and forth in Xingqing Palace with a distraught look.

"The lord of the country respects the Buddha and has a good heart, if he can't bear to kill an arrogant minister like Pan Wei, he will hand it over to us, so as not to upset the lord of the country." Fu Hong, the Chinese scholar next to him, looked flattering, hunched over to help Li Yu sit down.

Fu Hong thought that this Li Yu was upset and restless because he didn't want to look at the folds, and because Buddhism was humiliated. But I don't know what Li Yu is worried about is how many people in the court secretly pro-Song, and how many people really resist Song.

If I am not mistaken, in the second year of Jianlong, that is, in 961 AD, Zhao Kuangyin stabilized the situation of the dynasty, and after holding military power, he was already planning to destroy the Tang Dynasty, and Li Yu abolished the name of the Tang State in order to delay Zhao Kuangyin's southern expedition plan, and claimed to be the lord of Jiangnan and presented the map of the Southern Tang Dynasty with both hands, and the population was registered.

The time is getting closer and closer, if you can't find a chance to resist the Song Dynasty in July, you can really give the map population with both hands as in history, and pay tribute every year, even if you drag down the financial resources of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

After Li Yu sent Fu Hong to the political hall for approval, he sat on a chair and waited for Pan You to arrive. He knew that Li Yu's worship of Buddha in history had reached the point of almost perversion, and that Fu Hong, in order to please himself, received a large number of monks from the Northern Song Dynasty to preach, and also looted money to build a temple in Jinling City.

But it was such a seemingly obedient and sensible minion who took the lead in surrendering the city with Huangfu Jixun, the defender of Jinling, when Zhao Kuangyin's troops besieged Jinling. Giving him some twists and turns was also to numb him and let him relax his vigilance, so as not to detect that something was wrong with Li Yu after he fell into the river.

As for why the soul still eats fasting and worships the Buddha every day, it is to dispel the concerns of Fu Hong, Meng Yu and others. The second is to see how many ministers can jump out and risk death to admonish.

It's better to entrap the regime and military power from these people, and then plot to resist the Song Dynasty, or even destroy the Song Dynasty! After holding back for so many days, someone who was not afraid of death finally jumped out, which gave Li Yu's anti-Song plan an eyebrow.

In Xingqing Palace, Li Xiang, who had penetrated Li Yu's inner soul, looked around and hammered down the table. This Li Yu is immortal, the whole office is full of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and at every turn, he also passes on the female music to enjoy the dance, drink and compose poetry, in addition to eating and worshiping the Buddha.

Moreover, every night with the current Great Zhou Hou Qingqing and me, I have to go to the suburbs to dabble in the mountains and waters, according to your play, even the Zhenguan Shengshi Emperor Taizong has to play for you.

However, in history, it has always been a mystery whether the Southern Tang Dynasty is the orthodox descendant of Li Tang, but this Li Xiang is a descendant of the Li family who thinks he is a serious child, and the genealogy in the living room at home is traceable.

"Lord of the Kingdom, Pan You has been brought!" The voice of a young general was heard outside the hall. Li Yuanzhen, the commander of the Shence Army, escorted Pan You closer and closer to Li Yu, but when Li Yuanzhen escorted Pan You, his hand didn't work hard at all.

His grandma's! Isn't this pretentious to fool me, could it be that the commander of the forbidden army didn't take me, the lord of the Tang Dynasty, in his eyes, and acted in front of me.

Li Xiang recalled that when he was studying the history of the Southern Tang Dynasty in college, some loyal ministers were indeed unhappy with Li Yu, but he didn't expect this person to dare to fool himself in front of him.

After Li Yuanzhen left, this Pan You knelt down and kept his head against the ground and did not move, Li Xiang also sat on the stool with a smile, as if the two of them were competing to see who spoke first.

Good guy, you are a direct minister in history, in my opinion, you are clearly a stubborn donkey, I didn't directly ask Fu Shilang to put you in prison and beheaded, I can't guess what I think.

After a while, Pan You sighed, and still got up to face Li Yu stiffly.

"Today's Buddha said in front of him, there is no one in the same party, no one instigates it, it is all done by me, the lord of the country must not listen to that Fu, Meng and the two are talking nonsense!

If you want to kill me, just give me a sword! ”

"Pan Qing, you have a deep grudge against the widow." Li Yu stood up suddenly, putting his hand on Pan You's left shoulder.

This ride instantly overwhelmed Pan You, as if he had lost his mind. I slandered the Buddha and insulted him like this, I didn't say anything to punish him, and I also called me Pan Qing, could it be that this queen lord is tempting the important ministers in the court?

Li Yu turned around and took off the sword hanging behind him, pulled out the sword body, and stared at Pan You.

"Pan Qing, the widow's sword has two uses, one is to kill Tang Zhongchen, and the other is to expel the Song people.

Pan Qing thought that the widow was holding the sword for what reason. ”

Pan You's eyes widened, his hanging hands suddenly clenched heavily, his chin trembled and he couldn't speak, staring straight at Li Yu who was holding the hilt of the sword and his eyes were resolute, like a different person.

"My lord... It's going to..."

"Not bad! I want to raise troops to destroy the Song Dynasty and restore the Tang Dynasty! ”
