This is the most time-wide-ranging rain in the written history of mankind, which lasted from midsummer to autumn, beyond everyone's imagination, and the rain kept falling from the sky and falling on the mountains, rivers, fields and lakes. After being washed and soaked by the rain, the cliffs began to collapse, the official roads were destroyed, the rivers burst their banks, and the floods were overflowing.

Such a severe natural disaster is enough to make the whole world feel hopeless, but fortunately, the Xiling Temple and the royal families of various countries quickly launched disaster relief, and human beings once again showed terrible vitality and endurance in the face of natural disasters in Yanzhòng, and were not knocked down, but calmly accepted and then worked hard to fight.

Heavy rain also fell on the wasteland. The herdsmen could not graze their cattle, so they had to hide in their tents and suffer from it, and even the horse thieves hid back in the mountains and forests on the shores of Lake Sobi, lamenting the rain.

After the end of the Wasteland War, the Tang army retreated in two ways, of which the Northeast Frontier Army arrived at Tuyang City in the south before the rain fell, and the Beidaying Iron Cavalry, which followed the royal car, stayed in Helan City for a while, and then was forcibly left behind by this continuous heavy rain.

Although the empire spared no effort in manpower and material resources and invested continuously for hundreds of years, Helan City was far away in the depths of the wasteland after all, and the buildings in the city were limited. Tens of thousands of iron horsemen from the northern camp requisitioned all the camp tents and residences in the city to fill up, but a large part of them were still forced to be placed in the city tower.

The city tower is high between the cliffs, and the cold wind passes through it at night, the temperature at the turn of summer and autumn should be suitable for camping, but even the heavy rain has been poured for a long time, and the autumn mood has come to the wasteland in advance, and the temperature has dropped sharply.

The most troublesome thing is the problem of food and grass supply.

Helan City has a lot of grain in stock. But there were tens of thousands more Tang troops and countless war horses. The pressure increased instantly, and it could barely hold on for a while, but if the rain continued. The grain and grass in the south can't be transported, and they can't leave, so Helan City will face the danger of running out of food.

A wide variety of questions. All kinds of troubles, combined in one place, become all kinds of dangers, but neither the iron cavalry commander of the Beida Battalion nor General Han Qing dare to use this question to ask the emperor who they should ask for the most information, let alone alarm the empress mother or the Huangyang master.

Because His Majesty the Emperor was sick, he was very sick.

......

......

Li Zhongyi, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, is a person who values love and righteousness, but this does not mean that he is pedantic and ignorant of world affairs. When he was the prince, he was the most powerful general in the world, and he seemed very calm and low-key in the nearly twenty years since he ascended the dragon chair. But absolutely no one dared to despise him.

For the emperors of the Southern Jin Dynasty, the lords of the Yuelun Kingdom, and the kings of Yanqi and Song Chen. The Tang Emperor was definitely at the top of the list of deaths they wanted to see, all the time. I don't know how many people secretly pray that he has an incurable terminal illness and curse him to die of a serious illness.

In fact, not many people know that many years ago, Li Zhongyi got sick, and this disease was very serious, and he had been with him all the time, and it was incurable.

The master had seen the illness of the emperor's majesty, or this illness was too troublesome, or the master saw the abyss of fate after this illness, so he only prescribed a prescription without using the power of the world.

This disease dragged on until the autumn of the eighteenth year of the Apocalypse, with the golden dragon descending on the earth, with this continuous cold rain, with a destined arrow.

The emperor leaned back on the couch, his face pale, and in his hand he clutched a handkerchief with blood stains on it.

The queen bowed her head and was speechless, gently rubbing his chest, trying to make him feel more comfortable.

"In the past few years, many people have died in Chang'an City, and there are many old people who have accompanied my father and even my grandfather, all of whom have walked ahead of me, and now the dean has left us. ”

"I can't do it anymore. ”

The emperor held her hand and said, "Heaven is going to kill my Tang Dynasty, it is not a crime of war...... Even so, I don't have any fear, because I firmly believe that Datang will win the final victory. ”

Hot tears dripped from the eyes of the queen mother, and the emperor was holding her hand, so the tears fell into a splash on the two tightly held hands.

"I am the most powerful man in the world, married my favorite woman, and finally died on the way to conquer the Quartet, there are really no regrets in such a life, so don't be sad. ”

The Emperor said.

The queen raised her head and said with tears on her face: "But I have a lot of regrets, I haven't seen you look like an old queen, I haven't let you see the little sixth son grow up, and I regret that I went south to Chang'an on the order of the sect, lured you and deceived you, and finally harmed you like this." ”

The emperor smiled and said, "Tempt me and lie to me, but in the end you still fall in love with me." ”

Listening to the sweet and sour words, the queen finally smiled with tears and asked, "Have you ever blamed me?"

"To say that I never blamed you would be a lie, after all, who doesn't want to live a little longer?"

The emperor stretched out his hand, wiped the tears from her cheeks, and said, "But then I thought that this war between you and me ended in my victory after all, and my injuries are also glorious traces." ”

The queen hugged him gently and murmured, "From the moment I saw you, I lost." ”

The emperor smiled contentedly, he had fought countless battles in his life, but only this one was the most unforgettable for him, and he valued victory and defeat the most.

"If I wasn't the emperor, I would be a student of the academy, and now that I think about it, that kind of life might be more interesting, but I will treat my master as a teacher after all. ”

The emperor smiled tiredly, looked at her and said, "Now that the teacher has gone to heaven to do things, we still have to do things on earth, after I go with the teacher, you know what to do, right?"

The queen said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I know how to do it." ”

The emperor said: "I asked the little sixth son to worship Mr. Da as a teacher, so that he could learn the way of benevolence, and if the two children did not mess around, they would ...... Leave them alive. ”

The queen mother stopped crying and said very calmly: "I will do these things well." ”

"Then I'm relieved. ”

The Emperor said, then slowly closed his eyes.

Master Huang Yang walked into the room.

The Empress looked at the emperor as if he was asleep for a long time, then took off the rosary on his wrist, put it on his wrist, and lowered her body to kiss him lightly on the forehead.

Master Huangyang clasped his hands together.

A moment later, the room resounded with chanting.

Sutra of the Past Life.

......

......

It was also raining in Chang'an City.

The rain was heavy, mixed with thunder, and occasionally lightning flashed, and the silence and emptiness of the palace shone like day, and even if there was a cover, the candle flame still shook uneasily.

If it weren't for the lampshade, probably those candles would have been extinguished a long time ago, right?

Li Yu sat behind the desk, looking at the beautiful candlestick like coral next to the column, thinking a little distracted.

Her black hair was slightly wet, and the palace skirt on her body was also a little wet, so she should have gone somewhere in the rain before.

Her face was a little pale, but it was not because she was afraid of thunder and lightning and rainstorms, because she thought that what she was doing was right, even if she lived in a dark temple.

Looking at the night rain outside the hall, two lines of tears trickled down from the corners of her eyes, slid down her pale cheeks, and fell on the fold on the desk, wetting one line of ink.

Li Yu came to his senses, ordered the eunuch to take a coarse paper dipped in water, carefully wiped off the wet marks on the fold, and then wiped away the tears on his face, and continued to examine the fold calmly and attentively.

This letter is a summary of the flood situation in the counties of the empire, and it is very important.

She picked up the brush and began to give instructions.

Guarding the embankment, storing water, disaster relief, epidemic prevention, military mobilization, and keeping an eye on those rangers in the Eastern Wilderness.

Datang is very big, there are many affairs, she has adapted to the habit, the handling is orderly, as the approval work continues, her expression becomes more and more calm, and even seems very resolute.

......

......

In the middle of the night, after a busy day of government affairs, Li Yu put on a big hat, did not bring the eunuchs and palace maids, and left the palace alone, under the heavy protection of the Yulin army and the guards.

The place where she went was not far, just opposite the Imperial City, at the South Gate Temple.

The South Gate View, shrouded in heavy rain, is particularly bleak and quiet.

Li Yu walked into the Taoist hall, deep in the black paulownia wood floor of the Taoist hall, and an oil lamp was lit on the side of the soft mattress, illuminating the haggard and thin face of Li Qingshan, the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty.

She walked up to Li Qingshan, slowly knelt down on her knees, and said in a trembling voice, "Father, go." ”

Li Qingshan slowly closed his eyes, and then opened them again, there was only sadness in his eyes, no shock.

For hundreds of years, Helan City has used two Thousand Miles Book Transmission Array in a row for several months.

The first time was because of that black sè carriage.

The second time was to send the news of the emperor's majesty leaving the world back to Chang'an City.

At this time, in the entire Chang'an City, only a few people knew the news, Li Yu relied on the help of the South Gate Temple, temporarily kept the secret, at this time, looking at the expression of the national teacher Li Qingshan, he knew that the other party already knew - since she relied on the South Gate View to keep the secret, naturally she could not hide it from the South Gate View Lord.

Li Qingshan looked at her kneeling in front of him, and said weakly, "What are you going to do?"

Li Yu said: "I want to see the edict." ”

The edict of the inheritance of the Tang Dynasty throne is not in the palace, but in the South Gate View!

Li Qingshan said: "According to Tang law, the edict should be announced in public before the civil and military officials. ”

Li Yu lowered his head, looked at his soaked skirt, and said, "The civil and military officials don't know yet. ”

Li Qingshan said: "They will know after all. ”

Li Yu said: "I didn't want to hide the news of my father's death for too long, and I will notify everyone later." ”

Li Qingshan said, "Then why did His Highness come here in advance?"

Li Yu was silent for a long time and said, "Because...... I'm not at ease. ”

Li Qingshan also fell into a long silence.

Li Yu's head hung lower, and water droplets dripped from the end of the jet-black sè.

Her body fell with drops of water, and her forehead touched the jet-black floor.
