Chapter 219: The Dream of the King
On November 13 of the seventh year of Hongdao, Changsha City held an examination, and this time 1,000 new people and more than 100 people were raised before, and they participated in this examination together, and finally decided 100 Jinshi.
Three days later, these jinshi participated in the palace examination and selected the top three.
So far, with the three rounds of examinations of the county examination, the general examination, and the palace examination, more than 1,000 new imperial examination people have also been awarded official positions and filled in the local and imperial court centers.
After this examination and appointment as an official, Lu Yuan's Changsha court completely became Zhengshuo in the hearts of local literati and scholars, and the foundation was thus stable.
And in terms of cultivation, it's just that when he practiced the Taiping Dao Book, the luck he gathered skyrocketed again.
In just a few days, it has climbed one after another, an increase of nearly 20% compared with the past.
The luck was so strong that when Lu Yuan was practicing the Taiping Dao Book, his mana was improving much faster than before.
However, in just half a month, his mana has achieved a small success.
Inside the main hall of the royal palace.
Lu Yuan sat alone on the high head, his knees crossed on the couch, his hands holding the magic trick, and his eyes closed to practice.
I saw that around his body, a clear spiritual qi descended in the darkness, turning into a colorful streamer, floating and lingering.
In this dream, Lu Yuan followed the method of refining qi and breathing in the Taiping Taoist Book, and between exhaling and inhaling, he collected these clear spirit colored lights and inhaled them into his mouth and nose.
After several rounds like this, when the clear spirit qi that fell was all refined, and the surrounding area dissipated as a blurred color, Lu Yuan's body already had a few more mana.
Still breathing slowly, after refining the mana, Lu Yuan breathed a few more times, and then slowly opened his eyes, his face showed a little joy, and he secretly thought to himself:
"In the past few days, as the political affairs of the country have been sorted out, all the people have been attached, the country has flourished, and my luck has prospered, and my cultivation has become more and more free. It's only been half a month now, and what I've gained from my cultivation is even stronger than the previous two or three months.
I heard that during the time of the three emperors in ancient times, the mountains handled government affairs, the government was harmonious, the people were happy, and everyone was called virtuous. The use of force is also invincible, barbarian and fearful, and the ten regions of Kyushu are salty.
Therefore, the three emperors are at peace with the sky and the earth. All immortals came to court, and the gods saluted. The four seas are served, and all the people return to their hearts. There is no one to be mighty.
Earlier, I checked the legends in the history books and watched the Codex of the Ancient Immortals, and I originally thought it was a bit exaggerated.
But at this time, I personally cultivated the way of luck, and then I realized that the rumors may not be false, and the three emperors may really rule the immortal gods, and Weida Netherworld is the emperor of the Three Realms. ”
At this time, Lu Yuan ruled a county, and ruled a land of thousands of miles, and the people under his rule were worth two million.
But even so, he practiced the Taiping Dao Book, and with the blessing of the luck of all the people, his mana improved so quickly.
The three ancient emperors ruled Kyushu, the demons bowed their heads, the immortals worshipped, the territory was thousands of miles, and the people were billions of trillions.
With such prestige, the luck gathered is ten million times that of Lu Yuan.
The Three Emperors are so lucky, and after they cultivate, how terrifying they should be, it can be imagined.
However, although the three emperors are intimidating, the records and legends in all aspects have pointed out one point, that is, the life span of the three emperors is not long, and none of them can live for a thousand years.
This is already called a short life when there were true immortals in ancient times, and a large number of immortals could live for tens of thousands of years.
After all, after the monk has five qi dynasties, he can live for 800 years.
And once the flower on the top is condensed, it can become a real person, rank in the immortal family, and be free for 3,000 years.
Although the three emperors of the ancients made the immortals fearful, when it came to lifespan, they were just a five-qi dynasty monk who had not become immortals.
Is this the reason why he died early because he cultivated the way of luck and his lifespan was repulsed? ”
Lu Yuan thought of the biggest drawback of the way of luck, and his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.
As he practiced the Taiping Dao Book more and more, he couldn't help but have a deeper and deeper understanding of the way of luck contained in this book these days.
Although the cultivation time has not been long, Lu Yuan has gradually realized it.
Perhaps the so-called drawback of the Taiping Taoist Book, that is, after cultivation, the number of life expectancy will be reduced, this is not because of the incomplete exercises.
It's because of this way of luck, which has this shortcoming, and it is difficult to live long.
After all, this Dao cultivation is so fast, far better than ordinary immortal cultivators, it is impossible for the heavens to take care of you like this.
This side gives you a fast cultivation speed, and on the other side, it will naturally reduce the corresponding calamity price.
In this way, it is in line with the principle of balance between heaven and earth.
Obviously, the price to be paid for cultivating the path of luck is the life span of the practitioner.
Therefore, the people who practiced the Taiping Taoist Book before were powerful at the beginning, and their strength increased dramatically, and they were almost invincible. But after the peak, I basically didn't live for two months, and this is the price paid.
"And unlike the people who practiced the Taiping Taoist Book in the past, now I am ruling a county, and I have completed the process of founding the country, enthronement and worshipping the heavens, and selecting scholars for the imperial examination.
In this way, the luck and hearts gathered are far from being comparable to those grass-headed kings who were helped out by Danding Dao before.
If you have more luck, you will have more backlash.
Now, although it has only been twenty days since I cultivated the Taiping Dao Book, in such a short period of time, under the backlash of the luck of the people, it is estimated that the life span I have lost is no less than two years.
In about 10 days, I will lose a year of my life.
In this way, under normal circumstances, even if I am an innate grandmaster, after practicing the Taiping Dao Book, I will only live for three years at most.
The life span of one hundred and twenty years has been reduced to three years, nearly one-fortieth, this Taiping Taoist book, but it is really a way to kill people. ”
Although Lu Yuan's lifespan is endless, he is eaten by luck every day, and he still has some sense of the lifespan he has lost.
At this time, I can't help but be secretly speechless.
All of a sudden, the lifespan was accelerated by forty times, and even the innate grandmaster couldn't hold it.
That Anqiu Lao Dao also comforted Lu Yuan before, saying that even after cultivating the Taiping Dao Book, his life span flow rate was extremely fast. But as long as you can break through the realm and cultivate one qi before the end of your life, then you can add another fifty years of life to the innate grandmaster, and you can live for a while longer.
Under such continuous breakthroughs, as long as you can achieve the five qi dynasties, even if you can't live for 800 years like the ancient monks.
But if you live for two or three hundred years, there should be no problem.
Originally, Lu Yuan had not cultivated this book, and he didn't have a general understanding of how terrifying the lifespan consumed by this book was.
After practicing at this time, I realized how nonsense Anqiu's words were.
"With the strength of my martial arts master, I can only carry it for three years.
If you change to someone else, or break through the congenital late, I'm afraid that if you carry it for a year or two, you will die.
One or two years, three years at most.
Even if it is a quick success method like the Taiping Daoshu, if you want to condense one qi and break through the cultivation, it is enough, if not impossible.
Therefore, Danding Dao's plan was just a vain from the beginning.
Unless they can improve the backlash of their luck on lifespan, make this life-saving reduction a little less, or find other ways to resist it.
Otherwise, just relying on Danding Dao's current practice of slowly experimenting, I am afraid that I will not be able to attract the immortal qi by waiting until my own cave, and I don't want to improve the Taiping Dao book. ”
At this moment, Lu Yuan could basically conclude that the plan on the side of Danding Dao was basically impossible to achieve.
After all, even when the Immortal Dao was prosperous, the three ancient emperors could not solve the drawbacks.
Now that they have reached the end of the world, where can they get the confidence and self-confidence that the three ancient emperors could not do.
However, looking at the current situation of Danding Dao, they still don't seem to know that they have fallen into a dead end.
After all, most of the candidates for Danding Dao's previous experiments were only first- and second-rate strengths, and they didn't even have an innate grandmaster.
As for those under the congenital nature, with their strength and life, they still have a residual life.
I'm afraid that if I hadn't started cultivating the Dao Book, my body would have taken a sharp turn for the worse, and I would have become ill in a few days.
At that time, the body will be weak, the will will be sluggish, and it will be enough to choke on breath.
Where did he get the ability and ability, like Lu Yuan, to slowly summarize the laws from the passage of life, and study these many insights.
And it is precisely because of the lack of this positive feedback that Danding Dao cannot find out the secrets in this regard.
In the end, I fell into the current cycle, looking for an experiment, and then the experiment died of illness within a month, and then looking for the next one.
Maybe you have to find the next innate grandmaster, and you have to be a relatively young innate grandmaster, and let the other party test the law, so that Danding Dao can understand that the path he chose is a dead end, and he broke off his thoughts early.
"Danding Dao may also be aware of this problem, so he found me.
But my secret must not be revealed.
At this time, even if I have already cultivated the Taiping Dao Book and have already gained something, I still can't tell Danding Dao about the above, so I can only hide it as a secret.
As for Danding Dao, it is to use each other, not to talk about diligence.
At this time, they haven't played with me, so they admit that they have suffered a loss, and continue on this desperate road for a while longer. ”
Lu Yuan didn't have much of a good impression of Danding Dao. Although when the other party found him, he made it clear from the beginning that there was a problem with the Taiping Dao book.
But the other party's revelation of the truth, how much truth has come out, at this time, it seems that it is also very problematic.
Don't talk about it from afar, let's just say that the Tianzhu sacrifice some time ago, Anqiu Lao Dao's concealment of Lu Yuan was full of malice.
And a person who is in front of you all day long, urging you to practice short-lived exercises, even if there is a deal, this kind of behavior is disgusting enough.
After these many things, he naturally had a little dislike for Danding Dao.
At this time, he can pit the other party a little, and Lu Yuan naturally doesn't mind.
"It's the Taiping Taoist Book, such a sharp weapon, it may be of great use in the future."
Lu Yuan took out the Taiping Dao book from his arms, slowly groped for the textured book cover, and stretched out his heart to think.
He practiced this method because he had an endless lifespan, so he was not afraid.
But others don't have this talent.
"So in the future, if someone doesn't like it, maybe I can also learn from Danding Dao to fool me at the beginning, and let others follow and practice this method.
As long as that person is hit, then it doesn't take the slightest effort to subtract a great enemy.
Isn't this a much easier way to do than to go to great lengths to kill an enemy?
I just don't know if other people are so easy to fool?
Maybe I should change the name of the Taiping Daoshu, so that I might have a chance to deceive a few people with short knowledge. Lu Yuan thought so, and several plans appeared for a while, and he gradually had an idea in his heart.
But these things have to be left for later.
At this moment, it is better to practice this method more diligently and enhance your own strength as much as possible.
It was not easy to encounter such an immortal method that could be immune to deficiencies and quickly improve his own strength, and Lu Yuan was naturally extremely rare.
At this time, I have faintly found a few points, when I first crossed before, I practiced martial arts and read the scriptures every day, and my schedule was full of state feelings.
Now Lu Yuan spends some time every day in addition to spending some time dealing with government affairs and accompanying Lan Cai'er, the rest of the time is spent practicing Taiping Taoism.
Now that the decisive battle in Jiangbei is imminent, he will also cross the river to the north with Yan Wangqiu and others, who are leading the army, to fight the last battle with the Zhou people.
At that time, even if his side has the advantage of strength, how can there be any absolute security between the battle formations?
At this time, you can improve your strength a little more, and when you get the big war, you can protect yourself a little more.
Lu Yuan is also familiar with this kind of thing, and it is really stable to do it at this time.
……
Time passed, and soon came to the 23rd day of November in the seventh year of Hongdao.
On this day, after rushing for nearly a month, Yan Wangqiu finally led the army and arrived at Changsha Fucheng.
"King of Changsha, I haven't seen him for half a year, and the king's demeanor is better than in the past."
When the two allies met again, Yan Wangqiu seemed very happy and took the initiative to say hello.
"The King of the South Seas too. It's only been half a year, and the king's complexion is much more than before. ”
Lu Yuan looked Yan Wangqiu up and down, looked at the other party's obviously more ruddy face than before, and couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, the king is angry and raises people." The king of the South China Sea was angry with this Lingnan king, and the god he raised was full of anger. ”
For Yan Wangqiu, he also smiled at him.
After all, not long ago, the other party let scholars come to participate in their own imperial examinations, and they helped so much, so they should praise the other party more.
Sure enough, when Yan Wangqiu heard this, he couldn't help laughing happily: "What the King of Changsha said is right, after becoming a king, the extravagance and cultivation of people are indeed different than before."
Don't hide it from the king of Changsha, although this king has only been on the throne for half a year.
But within half a year, under the hard work, there were already three concubines in the harem, pregnant with heirs.
In the decades before this, except for the heirs born in the early years, this king has not left any other descendants.
Now that he is the king for half a year, his heirs are prosperous, which is the meaning of God, my South China Sea country is long, and it will be endless from generation to generation. ”
Yan Wangqiu said with some pride, and also with some deep meaning.
Lu Yuan next to him heard this, and immediately stood in awe.
If I remember correctly, the king of the South China Sea in front of him is already one hundred and forty-four years old.
At such an advanced age, he can still win three yuan in half a year.
This kind of dragon spirit and tiger warrior is really worthy of being an old grandmaster, with a profound background, which makes people sigh.
In addition to admiration, he couldn't help but respond to another meaning in the other party's mouth, hoping that the South China Sea country would last forever and from generation to generation.
"The king of the South China Sea can rest assured, as long as your country is lenient and benevolent, peaceful and prosperous inside, and neighboring countries outside, the South China Sea country can be a long country and will continue from generation to generation." Lu Yuan made a vague guarantee.
Well.
As long as there is no internal turmoil in the South China Sea, and at the same time it is friendly with itself externally, then of course it will be able to maintain long-term peace and stability, and the country's glory will last for generations.
But if the South China Sea is absurd, it will make the people miserable. At the same time, the outside is at odds with itself and breaks off the alliance.
Then such a tyrannical country should be destroyed.
How the other party will choose in the end, and which step it will take, depends on whether he, a good ally of the dragon and tiger, can teach the younger generations well.
But at this time, the two are good allies.
Lu Yuan knew this, and Yan Wangqiu also knew it.
So after getting Lu Yuan's assurance, the king of the South China Sea, who was even in the middle of the three yuan, immediately laughed and said happily: "Then I will borrow the auspicious words of the king of Changsha." ”
After laughing, he looked at Lu Yuan and couldn't help but joke: "But this king has already sown heirs and consolidated the country's foundation." The king of Changsha is younger than me, and he should also find a plan to have more children and stabilize the hearts of the country. ”
For today's people in the world, a monarch has more children, so that the country has enough candidates to inherit, this is a good thing to stabilize the country.
That is, Lu Yuan is now preparing for a wedding, and he is about to get married, so no one is urging.
Otherwise, if he continued to be alone, believe it or not, Cui Changqing, Sun Siwen and others would have come to the book to admonish him, so that he, the king, would have accepted concubines and concubines, sang songs every night, and gave birth to heirs for the country.
Lu Yuan naturally knew this in his heart.
But at this time, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The king of the South China Sea should be clear, who is my soon-to-be-married queen?" This king wants to be like a king, even in the middle of the three yuan.
But I don't know if my queen will agree!
Don't make the harem restless, I'll be miserable by then. ”
These days, Lu Yuan has been accompanying Lan Cai'er, and with his efforts, the relationship between the husband and wife has finally become much more harmonious, and they have gradually become a couple.
But the Miao people have always been monogamous.
Lan Cai'er is also an innate grandmaster, and her dignity is not comparable to that vase vassal.
Lu Yuan felt that if he wanted to recruit concubines, then his queen might not refuse because of the etiquette system.
But these days, the relationship that has been enhanced with great difficulty is estimated to be ruined.
When the husband and wife are in the same bed, they can basically only have different dreams.
You may even have to take some risk of choking in your sleep.
He still plans to have more fun after getting along with the queen, so he doesn't want to face a cold dead fish, how boring is it?
So how to open this mouth and how to do it have become a difficult problem for Lu Yuan.
Seeing his embarrassed appearance, Yan Wangqiu next to him couldn't help but understand, and said with a little sympathy: "With such a queen here, it is really difficult for the king to do." ”
In all fairness.
If Yan Wangqiu is Lan Cai'er, then he is a dignified innate grandmaster, and he is naturally unwilling to share his husband with others.
Or if you want to share, you can find another innate grandmaster, then I have no opinion.
Otherwise, how can a vulgar woman be married to me?
This is the pride that belongs to the innate grandmaster.
Hearing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help sighing: "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and on my side, it can only be like this for the time being." ”
crossed over, and finally went through hard work, called the king lonely, and established a dynasty.
But the harem can't be opened widely, and the three palaces and six courtyards are built, which is really regrettable.
Lu Yuan was very depressed at this time.
At the same time, I made up my mind that I must do more work as Lan Caier in the future, and my career as a faint monarch must not be broken like this.
This is the struggle of a king with a faint dream.
