Chapter 517 The World Is in Chaos
Humans like to interpret words literally... No matter whether the names of the three lists of heaven, earth and man originally have special meanings, people will always understand them literally.
Most people think that the Hidden Dragon List is still a newcomer, and the Man List is the master of the world.
The Heaven List is no longer a human, but a legendary figure in the clouds.
The Earth List is in between, the steps of heaven and earth, walking on the steps to heaven.
No matter how much people exaggerate the understanding of the Heaven List and the Earth List, if Cui Wenjing and others knew that they were regarded as legends, would they laugh and cry? In short, this is true in the eyes of the world. Even Zhao Changhe himself, when he had little experience, saw Suzaku and thought he was a demon.
In other words, the first on the Man List is the strongest as a "human", and those above are not really human.
Once you reach the top of the Man List, your status in the world is ridiculously high.
However, since three people on the Earth List have fallen in succession in the past two years, the first on the Man List has also changed in succession, resulting in the lack of the sacred aura as before. Zhao Changhe's ascent to the top was not as sensational as when Qianlong was the first. After all, this guy always brushes the list when he has nothing to do, and the world is almost numb. It feels like this day will come sooner or later...
"What is the book of chaos and the book of blowing the river!" Tang Buqi was complaining in his own house: "Every time he is commented on, it is either the first-rate or the Hundred Flowers Killer. Wouldn't it be better to just give him the Flower King, or the Hundred Flowers Shame?"
This is the capital's mansion. The Tang family has indeed moved out of Gusu and does not want to lie on the explosive barrel of the Sword Emperor's mausoleum. However, Tang Buqi still needs to keep an eye on the situation in Jiangnan. This time he went to Beijing for something else.
Xuan Chong was a guest in his house. After listening to Tang Buqi's complaints, he laughed and shook his head, and did not agree.
In fact, the book of chaos had previously given high evaluations to Yue Hongling and Han Wubing. Zhao Changhe often received the word "unparalleled" because he really took the first place. There was nothing to say. Xuan Chong said he was very calm.
Using flowers as a metaphor every time makes people feel a little bit mean...
In his opinion, another problem is more important. He doesn't know why Tang Buqi didn't mention it... So Xuan Chong mentioned it: "I didn't expect Li Shentong to really rebel... And this time Zhao Changhe actually stood on the side of the rebels. Such a serious matter, your attitude is to be entangled in this?"
Tang Buqi was silent for a moment, and slowly said: "Auntie didn't say anything, what attitude can I have?"
"Tang Shouzu didn't say anything?"
"What can I say? Li Si'an's report clearly stated, Shu has suffered from Zhai Muzhi for a long time, and even the Miaojiang Rebellion can be regarded as Zhai Muzhi's rebellion. At that time, my aunt had a premonition that Zhao Changhe could not tolerate it, and no matter who's name was used, it would not work. "
"..."
"To be honest, this kid has always said that he is more inclined to rebel, and he has never concealed it, but he still patiently fights against the Hu people and the evil cult. It is hard to ask for more. "Tang Buqi sighed: "It's just that the beautiful dream that my aunt thought was about to come true suddenly shattered, and I don't know how to deal with it in the future. "
Xuan Chong twitched his mouth. How to deal with it? Why did he say it as if Tang Shouzu had been eaten up...
Tang Buqi drank a sip of wine by himself and sighed: "I don't think she has the mind to consider the southwest now. Daxia is pasting and pasting, and suddenly it leaks everywhere, and it can't be pasted anymore."
Xuan Chong knew what he was talking about. This time Tang Buqi went to Beijing for this matter.
The imperial concubine Huangfu Qing and Queen Wang cooperated for the first time and jointly promoted one thing: abolishing the canal and changing to the sea.
This is the most important part of the cooperation project between the Four Symbols Sect and the Wang family. After a year of conspiracy, and the solicitation and exchange of countless officials behind the scenes, it has finally been promoted to the court today.
The food and clothing of millions of canal workers depend on this, and it is almost foreseeable what the reaction of the canal gang will be.
The canal gang is not a simple gang. It is related to countless official forces along the canal. In fact, it is not just the canal gang that wants to cause unrest, but also countless officials will rise up to oppose it, shaking the foundation of Daxia's rule.
But there are several subtle points in this matter.
First of all, in the long run, sea transportation is a good thing and something that must be done sooner or later. Overseas exploration has always been a suggestion made by knowledgeable people. If this happened in the heyday of Daxia and coordinated well with the canal transportation, it would not necessarily hurt the interests of the canal transportation, and everyone could coexist.
Unfortunately, at this time of turmoil, it was forced to push forward, and Huangfu Qing deliberately made trouble, so the result was naturally not so ideal.
Secondly, this matter is beneficial to the Tang family. The Tang family is also a big family on the coast... The Tang family actually agreed to this.
Now Tang Wanzhuang is extremely troubled. She was confronting Huangfu Qing every day outside, and they were about to fight. As a result, when she returned home, from the old man and the old lady to other family members, they were secretly encouraging her to agree. Tang Wanzhuang was so worried that she didn't even want to go out recently.
Tang Buqi went to Beijing because the Tang family had been quarreling recently. As an important figure in the southeast, he must participate in the family meeting. What's more, Wan Dongliu of the Cao Gang is still his friend, which makes him feel even more complicated.
Of course, Tang Buqi didn't know that Wan Dongliu, as a member of the Four Elephants Sect, wanted to rebel. This move was just to force his father Wan Tianxiong to make up his mind.
Tang Buqi didn't even know that it was Zhao Changhe who suggested this to Huangfu Qing, otherwise his three views might have collapsed.
"Sir, is this really a case brought by Zhao Changhe?" In the villa of the capital of Sixiang Sect, where Zhao Changhe once stayed, Xia Chichi asked in disbelief the venerable face covered with firebirds in front of him: "This kind of conspiracy to stir up chaos, How could it be that he mentioned it?"
Suzaku crossed his legs in a good mood and leaned lazily on the soft couch: "Why, you know him very well? No matter what, he is still the fire pig of our Four Elephants Classroom. Is there anything strange about helping the Holy Cult with suggestions?"
Xia Chichi muttered: "He wasn't a pig at that time...it was the coquettish imperial concubine who turned him into a pig."
A certain coquettish concubine's good mood was almost gone. She glanced at her apprentice up and down, thinking about finding a book for her to copy.
But I have to marvel in my heart that this girl's talent is really good... In fact, from the time she was able to deal with the two elephants of the green dragon and white tiger at the same time, she knew that her talent was better than hers and Sanniang's. But Suzaku never thought that if she was allowed to go overseas to practice for such a long time, she would actually be on the verge of a second secret.
How old is she...
However, the shock was soon overturned by the announcement from the Book of Troubled Times. That little man had actually broken through the second level and surpassed Chichi.
This is a fucking miracle. Although Zhao Changhe is older than Chi Chi, how long has he only been practicing? Suzaku felt that this was beyond her understanding of martial arts. Anyone else would have been caught and sliced into pieces by her...
However, this was Zhao Changhe, so his mood changed to "My man is awesome."
Then when he looked at his disciple in front of him, he didn't like everything.
As a result, Xia Chichi continued to express her understanding of Zhao Changhe: "Changhe offered this strategy, and it was definitely not just for rebellion. There must be other explanations. He probably thought that this would be a beneficial direction and could be used with Zhao Changhe. The Cao Gang has coordinated well... but the current situation can be used to force Wan Tianxiong to rebel. "
Suzaku looked at her sideways and said after a while: "Yes, you are right."
Xia Chichi felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere...she shrank and stopped talking.
Suzaku didn't know how to find her pigtails, so he couldn't tell her to put her left foot first, so he had to say: "You just came back from going to sea this time, why are you asking so many questions? Let me tell you what you discovered overseas."
"There are people living overseas, but they are not other races or civilizations as we originally imagined. They are just Xia people who escaped the war in the early years and went out to make a living... They also believe in the sea god, but it is difficult to determine whether it is because there are such gods and demons, or because they are seaside people. A belief in gods spontaneously formed out of awe of the waves.”
If Zhao Changhe hears this, he will be more sure of his worldview.
A pure Chinese-like fantasy world, not an Earth-like civilization, without Ocean Horses.
This may be a relatively meaningful discovery for Zhao Changhe, but it is of no use to the Four Symbols Sect. Xia Chichi went to sea this time, firstly to sharpen his Qinglong intention, and secondly to investigate the Hai clan and prepare for the upcoming fall out with the Wang family. However, the first item was completed very well, but the second item was nothing.
Of course, Xia Chichi was not far away, and it was impossible for the Four Symbols Sect to allow their saint to travel a few months and a year or two away. What if there was an accident? So if you can't find any clues, be mentally prepared.
First things first, Suzaku didn't want to find trouble for the moment. He frowned and thought for a while, and whispered to himself: "It is very important to know yourself and your enemy... Wang Daoning is not afraid, but the Yin Qi at that time... If you don't understand We cannot rashly fall out with the Wang family about this so-called Hai Clan thing."
Xia Chichi chuckled: "In the royal court, there is now a great Xia Zhongliang. He retreated from Helei and fought against Maitreya. He was unjustly imprisoned before he came out. He went all the way to suppress the Miao rebellion. I was so moved that I almost cried... Your Majesty. Tell me, will the Wang family simply follow this route and not go against it..."
Knowing that she was joking, Suzaku still replied seriously: "The Wang family can't go back. Just four words in the book of troubled times, 'Desire to make an alliance with the black seedlings,' turned all the seemingly loyal and virtuous actions in the king's way into a joke. As long as they are not stupid, Everyone knows why Wang Daozhong went to the southwest... If the Wang family could only be regarded as "revealing" before, and they did not really pull the flag after all, they could still pretend to be deaf and dumb in the court, but this time they really can't pretend anymore. Tang Wanzhuang secretly met with Xia Longyuan last night and stated that he must take a preemptive strike to wipe out the Wang family's influence in the court. "
"The noble concubine knows all this? Then Xia...what did Xia Longyuan say?"
Suzaku said with a straight face: "I don't know."
Xia Chichi pursed her lips and whispered to herself: "It is indeed a book of troubled times... In other words, no matter whether the abolition of Cao can be implemented or whether the Cao Gang will rebel, the Wang family will definitely rebel. And Li Shentong captured Bashu, Xiang Simeng's survey of Miao territory, Wan Tianxiong rose from Jianghuai, behind us is the Four Elephants Sect... The Jiangnan separatist regime caused by Maitreya has not yet been resolved, the world is on fire, and the late Tang Dynasty makeup can no longer be pasted... This is The real chaos begins.”
Her tone was a bit sad and complicated.
Suzaku looked at her sideways, feeling a little complicated.
If she turns out to be a true princess, this feeling is indeed not humane.
She suddenly wanted to know how Zhao Changhe felt when he stepped out of Bashu, which was secluded from information, and saw that the world had become like this.
"What would he think?" Xia Chichi was also whispering.
Suzaku sighed: "You will find out soon."
Xia Chichi looked up at the Venerable in astonishment, only to see Zhuque smile slightly: "If you want to see him, just wait here. If I am not wrong, he will definitely come to the capital next."
