When Ji Ruxue woke up from her memories, the word "complexity" was written between her eyebrows.
She naturally understands what Lu Linxuan means, but understanding does not mean that she is willing to do so.
If you truly love someone in your heart, how can you be willing to share it?
Ji Ruxue wished that Li Xingyun would only love her, hold her in the palm of her hand, pamper herself forever, and drive away all the opposite sex around him.
What a pity.
The idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
She knew better than anyone else that as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he was destined to never love her alone.
In fact, Ji Ruxue has also thought about it.
What would have happened if Li Xingyun had not chosen to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor that night?
Will he take him to live in seclusion outside the world and live the life of idle clouds and wild cranes?
About this issue.
Ji Ruxue thought about it for a long time, and finally she came to a conclusion.
According to Li Xingyun's direct bloodline from the Li and Tang royal families, as well as the desire of the military governors and vassal kings in the world for royal orthodoxy, once he really chooses to go against the grain, he will definitely not have a good death in the future.
It is almost doomed that this will not end well.
As a personal maid, she has followed Qi Wang Li Maozhen [the Empress] since she was a child, and she has been influenced by her ears and eyes. In fact, she has met many Jiedu envoys and vassal kings.
These Jiedu envoys and vassal kings all have ambitions in their eyes. If it weren't for the bad commanders of the Tang Dynasty who suppressed them, I'm afraid they would have started endless wars.
Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, some of his operations during his reign had invisibly opened the eyes of these Tang Jiedu envoys and vassal kings.
Holding the emperor hostage to order the princes...
Simply put.
As long as Li Xingyun dares to give up the throne, give up the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor in the Jiao Lan Palace, and give up the thirty years of hard work of Yuan Tiangang, the bad commander of the Tang Dynasty, and all the bad people of the Tang Dynasty.
Him in the future.
His life will be spent in a bloody storm, and he will certainly not have a happy ending.
..........
The territory of the Tang Dynasty, Fengxiang Mansion, capital Chang'an.
The bustling streets are full of people, vendors and goons are all over the streets, and the sounds of hawking are coming and going. From time to time, one or two ladies in gorgeous clothes can be seen walking around.
The crowd on the street was very noisy. Everyone was talking about their own things, as if they were living in peace and prosperity.
"Big steamed buns, one Kaiyuan Tongbao and two big white steamed buns."
"Hot meat buns, two Kaiyuan Tongbao each."
“Tofu pudding, both sweet and salty, don’t miss it if you’re passing by!”
The sounds of hawking are coming and going, and the vendors are working hard to make a living.
For them, today or tomorrow is the same every day. The only difference is that they can clearly feel that they are getting older little by little.
"Master, it's so lively here, but I heard that Chang'an, the capital, was burned down by the Huangchao rebels many years ago?"
Luo Xiaobei looked around curiously. As this was his first time in the capital city of Chang'an, he had to say that he was really surprised by the bustling scene.
"It's just that the imperial city, the Daming Palace, was burned down on a large scale. Later, the capital had to be moved to Luoyang. But how could a city as big as Chang'an be destroyed along with it?"
Tiansu Xing Duan sighed with emotion all the time, as if he was lamenting the greatness of Chang'an City.
As a bad person in the Tang Dynasty, he will never forget it until his death.
Once upon a time, this was the center of the world. All nations came to visit, and the Tang Empire was the supreme kingdom of heaven in the eyes of foreigners. These foreigners wanted to settle in the Tang Dynasty at all costs.
During the prosperous period of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, all the nations of the Tang Dynasty came to the dynasty. With its enlightened and generous social atmosphere, world-leading civilization and cultural achievements, it attracted countless congratulatory glances from all over the world.
At that time, the total number of countries that paid tribute to the Tang Empire reached more than 300. Even the Liugui Kingdom as far away as the Kamchatka Peninsula in the northeast sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty to pay tribute to the Tang Empire.
For these countries.
The Tang Dynasty was their dream dynasty, an elusive heavenly kingdom, and they were willing to travel thousands of miles to get here.
"The Tang Dynasty existed in Zhaozhao, and God provided for all nations."
This is the most direct recognition of the prosperous Kaiyuan era of the Tang Dynasty among all the countries that paid tribute to the Tang Empire.
"Master, even so, the Huangchao rebels caused indelible damage to Chang'an City. Unexpectedly, after decades, Chang'an City has returned to its former prosperity."
Luo Xiaobei's eyes were very sharp and he noticed the traces left on the tall city wall not far away. These traces were large and small, and they were basically proof of the war that year.
"It is true, but I have to say that the current King Qi is indeed very capable of governing the country. While resisting the Mobei Dynasty, he can also make the Qi Kingdom so stable and peaceful. He is such a capable minister in governing the world!"
Tiansuxing Duan Chengtian touched his plump chin and expressed his recognition of the current King Qi's ability to govern the country.
It is worth noting.
Dressed in ordinary linen clothes, even with Luo Xiaobei wearing a green shirt next to him, he was inconspicuous in the bustling city of Chang'an, so he did not notice the private whispers between their master and apprentice.
"It's true, along the way, Master and I have passed through Jin, Wu, Chu, and Shu, but we really haven't found anyone comparable to Qi."
Luo Xiaobei nodded affirmatively.
In his eyes.
Today, among the many vassal states, the people of Qi State have the best life and the most sincere smiles on their faces. In vassal states like Jin State, the people of these vassal states do not seem to have a living at all.
But for these people at the bottom, as long as it is not a time of chaos and chaos.
Even if it's a little harder, even if it's a little poorer, as long as they can survive without losing hope of survival, no matter how hard it is, they can grit their teeth and persevere.
I have to say.
They are essentially lucky.
Now, under the absolutely domineering pressure of Yuan Tiangang, the bad commander of the Tang Dynasty, as long as these vassal kings and Jiedushi don't want to move their heads the next day, they will not dare to set off the prelude to troubled times and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms in the future.
In that future that may have disappeared, that is, the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.
People cannibalize people, use people as food, and use people to satisfy their hunger. This is really a literal meaning.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
It was an era of boundless darkness, an era that future generations will not want to recall.
"Alright, Xiaobei, stop chatting. The Commander-in-Chief's order is urgent. Let's quickly go to the local bad guys branch in Chang'an City to see those companions who have returned to being bad guys and regained their identities."
"Master, I want to eat..."
"Let's go, no matter how old you are, you are still like a child. Master will buy it for you when things are done."
"Thank you, Master."
"Thank you. Master, how old are you? I'm still waiting for you to inherit my title of Speed Star. In this case, your master and I will retire and return home sooner."
"Master, you are not old. Why don't you resign so early and return to your hometown to do...what...Master, please wait for me!"
Don’t wait for Luo Xiaobei to finish.
Tiansu Xing Duan Chengtian's figure had disappeared with the wind, and he was already a hundred meters away in almost the blink of an eye. Luo Xiaobei became so anxious that he started to chase him without stopping.
That's it.
The figures of the two masters and apprentices gradually disappeared, but no one found them in the bustling Chang'an City.
It is rumored that the Thirty-Six Colonels of the Bad Tiangang School are generally like this for each generation of teachers.
.......
Tang Dynasty Territory, Xuzhou [The former Daliang was destroyed, and after ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor, Li Xingyun actually controlled the state capital]
The world is huge, with more than 300 state capitals.
Xuzhou is not big and only has seven counties under its command.
At this time.
In an ordinary county town under Xuzhou, a unique interrogation is underway.
"Exile to Lingnan!"
As the gavel was taken, the interrogation was over.
But what the county magistrate sitting at the top did not expect was that the two prisoners below actually dared to talk back at this time.
"Haha, have you tried a trial? You haven't even tried a trial, so you're going to exile us sisters to Lingnan?" A burly woman shouted loudly.
"Sister, I think he is a corrupt official. We will go to Luoyang to sue him later!" A thin woman threatened directly.
"Then I will examine it..." The county magistrate touched his chin and thought.
"Let's take a good look at it. It's obviously his own problem, but now he's attacking us. Don't you think our sisters are easy to bully?" the burly woman said, holding her shoulders.
"You have to examine it carefully, otherwise when my sister gets angry, you two will not be able to eat and walk around together!" The thin woman pretended to be gentle and pinched an orchid finger.
About a few seconds later.
"Do you plead guilty?"
The county magistrate took the gavel in his hand again and looked at the two girls in the hall with cold eyes.
"Of course not!"
The burly woman had an angry look on her face. She could hardly bear it now.
"That's right. If you go to Lingnan, you will admit it." The county magistrate said calmly.
"Why, you, a corrupt official, must have wronged our sisters, right?"
The thin woman's fists were already clenched, and it was obvious that she could hardly control her emotions.
"Okay, you two shrews actually dare to despise the court. The crime will be increased. If you despise the court again and I do it again, I won't believe it. In the end, you won't be punished by execution."
The county magistrate threw out a token expressionlessly, and the surrounding government officials were frightened and stunned.
This is going to cost lives...
It is said that it is exiled to Lingnan, but in fact it is deported. Just leave Xuzhou. After all, Lingnan is not under Li Xingyun's control at all now. How can this county magistrate let the prisoners be exiled to Lingnan?
But the other party has always been ignorant of the conviction, which has angered the magistrate.
As the saying goes.
The county magistrate who destroyed the family and the prefect who destroyed the family.
The power of a county magistrate can be said to be boundless in a county. Those who dare to confront the county magistrate are basically death row prisoners who have no plan and no hope of living.
At this time.
The burly woman seemed to have remembered something. She raised her head arrogantly and said loudly: "My Zhang Lang has a very good relationship with today's emperor. How dare you touch our sisters?"
Emperor?
Emperor of the Tang Dynasty?
Today’s Emperor Li Xingyun of the Tang Dynasty?
As soon as these words came out.
The county magistrate sitting high in the lobby broke out in cold sweat unconsciously.
That's right.
He doesn't have the ability to prove that what the sisters said is true, but he also doesn't have the ability to prove that what the sisters say is false.
What if?
After lowering his head and thinking seriously for a while, the middle-aged county magistrate, who was about thirty years old, slowly had a smile that was like flattering his superiors on a daily basis.
"Oh, I really can't see Mount Tai, and I can't see 2,580,000 yuan. I don't know what your surnames are?"
While the middle-aged magistrate was speaking, he trotted away from his original seat, licked his face, and ran to the two sisters, nodding and bowing.
"Qingguo!" The burly woman put her hands on her hips.
"Qingcheng!" The thin woman was very shy.
As soon as these words came out.
The surroundings were extremely silent. In this silent space, you could even hear the sound of a pin dropping. Even the middle-aged county magistrate and the surrounding government officials were stunned.
They looked at the honor of the Qingguoqingcheng sisters, and an indescribable sense of absurdity came to their hearts.
"Sister! When I look at them, they seem to be stunned by the peerless beauty of our sisters."
