The Forbidden City is the imperial palace of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang spent a lot of time building it.
Now Li Yu looked again and saw some doorways. There were many roads here, but they were all one-way. Once the door was closed, there was a checkpoint, which could be defended by troops.
It seems that Lao Zhu was not very relieved about his situation back then.
Zhu Biao and Li Yu were walking leisurely in the palace, followed by a group of officials.
Erqiao was accompanied by the queen and chatted in the harem.
Zhu Biao clasped his hands behind his back and said, "An express message came from the Tang Dynasty, saying that the Heavenly Army was pressing down on the country, and an ultimatum was placed on their Chang'an City."
Li Yu nodded and said: "As expected."
Li Yu did not expect that Tianting would go to Datang first, but he did expect that something would happen recently.
In the final analysis, it is still because of the awakening of the spirit of the earth.
This thing may make Heaven feel threatened.
At this time, Li Yu didn't know that too many coincidences made Tianting suspect that someone was secretly manipulating all of this.
They had no choice but to take action because Heavenly Court could not do whatever they wanted now.
The problems they face today may be more than those in the human world.
Although the Jade Emperor has the power of law, he can no longer control all the gods. Many gods have their own agendas and ideas.
On the thirty-sixth level of the sky, we are facing the separatist rule of feudal towns. This is really nothing new under the sun. People have to sigh, it is worthy of coming from the human world.
Zhu Biao sighed and said: "Since Chang'an has gone to the gods, it will not be too late in Jinling. I intend to fight quickly. I don't know what the others think."
A quick battle may not result in a quick resolution, but it can avoid more accidents. Li Yu strongly supports this.
To be honest, he has long wanted to fight. As the fight continues, the strong men in the world and the forces in heaven will assess the situation and get involved.
As for which side they choose, I don't know.
Li Yu is not afraid. He feels that he has a great chance. After generations of planning, he is already ready to take action.
Even if we lose, it is still a step in passing on the legacy, ushering in an era of resistance for future generations.
You can't just be a group of humans and animals being raised under the pressure of heaven, right?
As long as there is a desire to resist, everything will become completely different. I am afraid that the entire human race will lose the will to resist heaven.
"I will bring His Majesty's ideas to the other emperors. If possible, it would not be impossible for everyone to get together and discuss it."
"This is a good idea!" Zhu Biao immediately agreed, "I propose to go to Chang'an. Didn't they issue an ultimatum in Chang'an? Let's all go to Chang'an and let these gods know that they can't threaten anyone."
Li Yu did not expect Zhu Biao to be so explosive. Choosing Chang'an for the gathering of the Emperor of Heaven, where the heavenly troops are pressing down, can indeed inspire people and boost momentum.
As long as nothing happens, Heavenly Court will definitely be the most embarrassed party, and they will definitely become angry from shame.
This is a good idea, but I don't know if other emperors have the courage.
Zhu Biao was indeed impressed by Li Yu. No wonder the world's evaluation of him is: gentle as jade, fierce as steel.
Behind Zhu Biao was the Ming Dynasty, which was the second empire after the Tang Dynasty and had a strong national power.
The Ming Dynasty's statement was very crucial. Among the other countries, Li Yu silently calculated that Cao Liu was probably not afraid, and Zhao Fujin was not afraid. In the end, the outcome still depended on Brother Quan.
Brother Quan can only say that it is too crucial.
He had to be tough this time. Li Yu secretly told himself that Brother Quan must be fine.
After all, he is also Sun Jian's son and Sun Ce's younger brother.
At this time, if the emperor of Soochow is Sun Ce,
It is estimated that not only will they not have to wonder whether they will come to Soochow, they will also be able to see Soochow as a pioneer.
He couldn't say that he still had to go to Jianye. Li Yu didn't want to go there anymore because he had taken the elixir of Dongwu Junchen.
When the people in Jiangdong saw Li Yu, they looked like hungry wolves, their eyes gleaming.
They really wanted to get the elixir back, but Li Yu really couldn't give it to him. In fact, he didn't care, but he must give an explanation to the world.
Li Yu was a little hostile towards Soochow at first, but as his level rose, he no longer had the time to think about trivial matters.
To do big things, you must have a bigger picture, otherwise you are doomed to fail.
Sun Quan, Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Lu Xun and others had been getting along for a long time, and Li Yu found that they all had their own shining points.
There are no absolutely good people in this world. If there were, they would definitely not be entrepreneurial heroes.
At most, people like Zhu Biao, who inherited a huge empire, might be a good person.
Sun Quan and Zhou Yu are the entrepreneurial generation.
"Whether they are willing or not, I have made up my mind. I will take the Ming Dynasty's troops and horses to Chang'an in a few days."
Zhu Biao's attitude is very resolute. He does not care about others. As the second strongest country, he must set an example for the other four countries.
It seems that Zhu Biao has already contacted Li Shimin, otherwise he would not be so decisive.
Today's Central Plains is indeed no longer the same as before, and meetings between emperors and people have become increasingly frequent.
In the future, although the Six Dynasties will be six countries, I am afraid that the contact between the people and the government will become closer and closer.
If this situation really exists, it may not be a bad thing. If the six countries restrict each other, there will be no war disputes with each other, which may still be a good thing.
Anyway, the population is just this. If you are too outrageous, I will go to other countries. In this way, the Six Dynasties will be inflamed and adopt better policies.
Just like the Cold War, that was when mankind made the most progress.
A unified dynasty will inevitably go into decay, and even the Heavenly Court is no exception.
When the territories of the Six Dynasties were large enough, population became the most important resource.
"Who is your Majesty going to take?"
Zhu Biao didn't think much about it, and he wouldn't hide it from Li Yu. He said directly: "Yu Qian and Qi Jiguang."
"Your Majesty is wise."
Li Yu felt that the two men he led were very reliable. As for the soldiers and horses, the Ming Dynasty's soldiers and horses were not bad, especially the Qi family army.
With the Yuanfu Immortal Boat, we can reach Chang'an soon, and Chang'an will be lively at that time.
If other human emperors were to go there, there would probably be people who would doubt whether the Tang Dynasty was going to be set up and let them be roasted by the fire.
But if Zhu Biao goes, everyone will know that he is here to help.
This is the importance of a person's reputation. The shadow of a person's famous tree may seem illusory, but sometimes it is really of great use.
"Can Taoist priest come with us?"
Li Yu shook his head, he couldn't go at this time, he had to organize a series of connections.
Today's Six Dynasties cannot do without the glue of Li Yu.
Without Li Yu, it might be difficult for them to communicate directly, but as long as Li Yu is given some more time to gather the Human Emperors of the Six Dynasties together, he can retire with success.
Over the years, although the Six Dynasties have communicated with each other, official exchanges have been too little.
There are also a few countries that simply keep fighting each other, looking at each other's position as enemies.
Under such circumstances, it is surprising that they can develop a formal and reasonable communication platform.
After Li Yu was born, he actually didn't have much effect until he came up with the elixir.
The elixir of death is the beginning of changing everything and the introduction of humankind's transformation.
From this we can also see the extent to which human beings fear death.
In order to escape death, all grudges can be put aside temporarily and face the common enemy together.
Zhu Biao understood Li Yu's choice. He knew that the war was coming and Li Yu would have a lot to do.
"If the Taoist Master needs Da Ming, just ask, and we, the monarchs and ministers, will do our best."
Zhu Biao's words made Li Yu very comfortable, and he knew that the other party was sincere.
The Ming Emperor's words were so profound that even Li Yu would be a little moved.
This represents Zhu Biao's trust in himself.
He nodded slightly and said, "The same is true for Your Majesty. If you need help, just ask."
The two people looked at each other and smiled, then parted ways to prepare for their next journey.
——
"Are you leaving again?"
Xiao Qiao said dissatisfied: "I haven't had enough fun yet."
They had just arrived in the Ming Dynasty, and Jinling, a place that had some unique qualities compared to other capitals in the Six Dynasties.
Er Qiao liked this place very much, and since she came with Li Yu, she had no regrets.
But as soon as they realized the benefits of this place, Li Yu dragged them to leave. Xiao Qiao said directly: "I'm not leaving. We'll stay here for a few days. You can go by yourself."
Li Yu shook his head and said: "No! You must follow me from now on. Wherever I go, you must be there."
"Why?" Xiao Qiao snorted coldly: "Who do you think you are?"
Li Yu directly raised his palm, and with a flash of white light, he took them into the Fengyue Treasure Mirror.
Xiao Qiao angrily pinched her waist and jumped around, but it was of no avail. Li Yu had already risen into the air.
He would not leave Er Qiao behind because their yin bodies might encounter unexpected events.
If it really turns into a demon, Li Yu is not around and cannot stop it.
It will be difficult to do it then.
With Li Yu's character, it would be even more uncomfortable for him to kill the demonized Er Qiao than to kill him.
Jinling was still shrouded in peace, and they had no idea that their emperor was about to go to war.
Li Yu looked down at the city, which was full of vitality everywhere. For the Central Plains, these big cities did have extraordinary significance.
Although there are many cities on the earth, there are only a handful of them that can reach the level of Chang'an, Bianliang, and Jinling.
Each such city has gathered countless people. This kind of intangible aura is a very strange existence.
A place where popularity thrives must be a place where talented people emerge.
People in Chang'an today are probably in panic, and I hope Zhu Biao's arrival can give them some relief.
Li Yu sighed and couldn't care less about his sadness at this time. He needed to persuade Sun Quan immediately.
Fortunately, Sun Quan listened to the advice.
Fortunately, although Sun Quan is a bit of a jerk, he is still reliable in important matters.
Li Yu felt confident that he could persuade Sun Quan to put the overall situation first and not just focus on his one-third of an acre of land.
Sun Quan focused on his family background and did not seek advancement. In fact, he was not born like this.
No matter how you say it, it is still the legacy of your father and brother.
Especially before Red Cliff, because I didn’t know much about the situation on the other side, I even got the prince involved.
Later, the person who really made Sun Quan become like this may be said to be Zhang Liao.
During the battle at Hefei, Zhang Liao swallowed up the little ambition in Sun Quan's heart.
Li Yu also secretly reminded himself that when he arrived in Jianye, he could say anything, but try not to mention the word Hefei.
When Zhang Liao was in Hefei, it was no longer a question of whether he was brave or not. He directly despised the heroes of Jiangdong.
He led hundreds of people on a rampage, fighting in and out. In terms of bloodshed, it was as bloody as Changbanpo back then.
Cao Cao was also very ambitious and actually sent him and Li Dian to defend the city together.
Li Dian and Zhang Liao were enemies and were extremely jealous when they met.
Li Dian and Li Yu came from the same place, Juye County, Shanyang County.
At that time, Lu Bu occupied this place, and in order to collect food and grass, he ordered the exploitation of the local nobles.
Li Dian's family has been a wealthy family for generations, and Li Dian is a rising star of the Li family.
However, Lu Bu always acted very roughly. When he sent people to collect taxes, he encountered some resistance and directly ordered a massacre.
At that time, Zhang Liao was Lu Bu's subordinate, and he was responsible for the place where Li Dian's family was. Zhang Liao was a very pure man. Since the lord has spoken, what are you waiting for?
Under his iron fist, some money was indeed collected, but it was no longer possible to continue.
Later, Lu Bu was defeated, and Li Dian and others defected to Cao Cao, slowly accumulating military exploits and reaching high positions.
But Zhang Liao also defected to Cao Cao. His ability was so conspicuous that Cao Cao ranked him ahead of Li Dian and others.
Thus, the story of Sun Shiwan was born, which has been passed down from generation to generation by the people in the Jiangdong area.
Li Yu fell to the ground from a high altitude almost instantly without any damage.
He did not go directly to the city, but chose a countryside, then straightened his clothes before entering the city.
Because Li Yu came a lot, many people in Soochow recognized him.
This time he was so low-key that no one would notice him. Li Yu arrived outside the imperial city, and sure enough, even the guards didn't recognize him.
Sure enough, when he arrived in the imperial city, not many people greeted him.
At this time, Sun Quan was sitting in front of a table and chair, looking at the two ministers he relied on most - Zhou Yu and Lu Su.
"The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty sent a secret message, saying that the troops from heaven are attacking the country. What do you think?"
Zhou Yu sneered and said: "The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty probably knows the strength of Heavenly Court even in his dreams. Why doesn't he still fight?"
The reason why we haven't fought yet is that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the most powerful country in the Six Dynasties, was still hesitant to strike preemptively.
Many people thought that the Tang Dynasty would surrender, but they did not.
Being the most powerful country in the Six Dynasties is not just a boast. The attitude of the Tang Dynasty will affect the other five countries.
If you walk around the Imperial Palace of Soochow, you will probably find that it is not even half the size of the Forbidden City of the Ming Dynasty. The roads here are very short, the city walls are not high, and they are full of all kinds of antique pavilions and verandas.
For Soochow, if people really hit Jianye, the defensive power of the imperial city would no longer be important.
Therefore, they would rather spend more manpower and material resources on the construction of the outer city.
At this time, a soldier ran over, cupped his fists and said, "A serious Taoist priest wants to see you."
