Chapter 498: Thousand Years of Painting

Although Zhao Guangyi's mumbling upset the Zhao Song emperor.

But he did not forget the original purpose of paying for his precious jade axe.

Fortunately, this time it went quite smoothly, which was very different from the last time.

[The playback function has been authorized...

Do you want to turn on the playback this time? 】

Zhao Kuangyin glanced at the two people beside him:

Zhao Guangyi stopped mumbling, his eyes widened so that his wrinkles were visible, and he was obviously very curious.

Zhao Pu looked at him expectantly, and then looked at his right hand, and the meaning was clear:

Is the emperor still writing? If not, let me do it for you!

It was obviously unrealistic to drive the two out at this time, so Zhao Kuangyin could only sigh secretly, and under Zhao Pu's disappointed eyes, he stretched out his finger and wrote the word "open".

After confirmation, what he saw was a densely packed line of titles.

Zhao Kuangyin thought carefully about what he had said when he first saw the light curtain... An Lushan?

There are many that I haven't watched before. I wonder if I can watch all of them on this day?

Zhao Pu studied this idea for a while and knew it was impossible, because from the words on the screen, he had to choose one to watch, so he urged impatiently:

"Your Majesty, you should follow what Zhuge Wuhou said and watch the book list of powerful families..."

Zhao Kuangyin nodded perfunctorily, while trying to write the name of the list on the stone table, he suddenly remembered:

If the younger generation said that the hacked to death was beheaded, it should refer to the kings of the Sixteen Kingdoms before the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

But what does the candlelight and axe sound mean?

…

“If we talk about the kings who were killed, there were three in the late Jin Dynasty.”

Fang Xuanling was quite familiar with the history books:

“Murong Chao of Southern Yan and Yao Hong of Later Qin were both killed by Emperor Wu of Song, Liu Yu.”

“But it does not fit the theory of candle shadow and axe sound.”

“There was also Xiao Baojuan of Southern Qi, who abused the eunuchs who were trusted by the state.”

“When Xiao Yan broke into Jiankang City at night, his attendants beheaded him while he was sleeping, which may be the theory of candle shadow and axe sound.”

The eloquent and well-reasoned talk convinced Li Shimin:

There were so many heroes in the Zhenguan period. Do the younger generations think that if they don’t talk about it, their ancestors will not know about it? He praised him:

"Xuanling is knowledgeable and has a strong memory. He can be called a treasure of the Tang Dynasty."

"Then let Xuanling choose what to watch today."

Fang Xuanling bowed and looked at his old friend. Du Ruhui understood and stood up and said:

"Now I think that the light curtains before I personally wrote down the record for your majesty need to be watched."

Li Shimin was speechless. This must be because of the omission of the giant panda, so he was afraid that there were some mistakes in the previous brief description, but he still argued:

"It was only about an inch square in the "Soushen Ji" before. I am not as good at memorizing as Xuanling. It is normal to have some omissions."

Normal! Fang and Du nodded perfunctorily with Changsun Wuji.

Then Du Ruhui acted as a villain and pulled Li Shimin to compare with his earliest oral record. He probably thoroughly filtered out how many issues the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty watched alone.

After apologizing to the newly arrived Chu Suiliang, Du Ruhui took the light curtain record and revised it.

It was at this time that Du Ruhui suddenly realized that Chu Suiliang, who had just arrived at Ganlu Hall, was so silent.

However, when he took away the light curtain notes, Du Ruhui seemed to vaguely see that Chu Suiliang had another book in his hand, and judging from its style... daily records?

No wonder he didn't say a word. Could this Chu Zuochi record the light curtain notes while still having the spare time to observe your Majesty's words and deeds and record the daily records?

Smacking his lips, Du Ruhui felt that it was a close call:

If this Chu Zuochi was here when he observed the Anshi Rebellion before...

Why do I feel a little bit of anticipation when I think about it?

After confirming that your Majesty's memory was not very reliable, the civil and military officials of Zhenguan simply chose the simplest method: just read it slowly from the first chapter.

"Analyzing the Possibility of the Unification of Shu Han from a Strategic Perspective", start!

...

As for the emperor who was hacked to death as mentioned by later generations, Liu Bei did not think that he was the emperor of the Han Dynasty from the beginning.

After all, to be honest, whether it was Emperor Ping of the Former Han Dynasty or Emperor Shao of the Modern Han Dynasty, or other Han emperors who died in an untimely manner, most of them died of poisoning.

Wang Mang was hacked to death, but he was beheaded and his body was torn apart by the righteous army.

And the candlelight and the sound of the axe looked like a murder.

Therefore, this matter was quickly forgotten by the chief minister of Chang'an, Han Dynasty - there were many things to worry about, why add one more?

As for the present, seeing the curious look on Lu Su's face, Kong Ming smiled without Liu Bei saying anything:

"Zi Jing relied on the East China Sea and went south. He drifted on the boat for a long time and knew the vastness of the world."

"Since this is the case, Zi Jing, do you know which is bigger, land or sea?"

Is the land wider or the sea wider? This is a question that the ancient sages of the Spring and Autumn Period thought about but did not know the answer. Could it be that Kong Ming and others already knew it?

Subconsciously, Lu Su glanced at the map behind Kong Ming, which stretched from Rome in the east to China in the west.

This map is not a secret, but he also knows that no matter how vast the world is, China must be unified first.

From this map, there is no doubt that the land is larger, but since Kong Ming said so... and think about the previous question and answer between the Song Emperor, Tang Emperor and Kong Ming.

Lu Su smiled and did not answer. He simply tore a piece of paper like Kong Ming, and then wrote the words "From the powerful to the noble family and then to the clan, the people let you be decent" in a handsome handwriting, and then stood up and threw it into the light curtain.

So everyone in the hall laughed, and Pang Tong even teased Kong Ming:

"It seems that Zi Jing does not want to become a disciple."

Kong Ming waved his fan, his face full of freedom and ease:

"I have wanted to be close friends with Zi Jing for a long time."

Thinking of the two people's identical judgments on the current situation when they talked in Red Cliff, and the measured letters they exchanged later, when he heard Kong Ming's words again, Lu Su almost blurted out:

"How come Kong Ming and I can't be called close friends?"

As soon as these words came out, the laughter in the hall became more and more enthusiastic.

The enthusiasm was mixed with a trace of Lu Su's regret - after the last replay of Xiaoyaojin's power, I haven't read the rest of the so-called Flooded Seven Armies' power to China!

As a result, a new hole was dug at this time. If you want to know the details of the battle of Jingxiang, you have to wait for another three months.

Even at sea, Lu Su had never felt that time was so difficult!

But having chosen everything, I can only regain my composure and turn my attention to the present.

Of course he wanted to know why Sun Hou was despised by Xuande Gong.

But I also want to know what this vast world looks like!

And the words about the powerful families mentioned in the title... Thinking of the powerful families in Jiangdong, Lu Su said that he simply didn't understand them!

Looking at the smile on Kong Ming's lips, Lu Su couldn't help but guess, maybe what he got today was far more than he thought?

Focusing on the light screen again, Lu Su was no stranger to the bloody struggle between cruel officials and powerful men in the former Han Dynasty.

But soon, Lu Su's face turned serious.

Of course, Lu Su knew that many of the twenty-eight Yuntai generals in the Han Dynasty were powerful, but he never thought that the powerful and powerful people who were difficult to cut off at the beginning of the dynasty would eventually be the "thread" that led to Zhang Jue.

In the eyes of later generations, Yuan, Yang, Cui, Chen, Xun, Cao and other great clans, who were highly respected by celebrities in the Qing Dynasty, were not at all noble, but were called the silverfish of the world who had both sides.

Using wealth to show off one's reputation, using one's name to obtain an official position, and then using power to amass wealth and regaining one's fame can be said to be endless. From this point of view, today's chaotic world is "natural".

"No wonder..." Lu Su whispered:

"When I was in Jiangdong, I also heard criticism from Da Xing, saying that General Zuo's methods against Da Xing were quite cruel."

"Where is Kulie?" Liu Bei disagreed:

"I am just counting their wealth and inspecting their fields to make them love the people and obey the law."

"Do not harm his body or his life. Act according to Han law. I am not harming him, but I want to save him."

Otherwise, the people might one day hang it on the city wall in the name of the Yellow Turban, Liu Bei muttered in his heart.

Lu Su cupped his hands, and the words on the light screen were not fast, but a few words spanned a century. Although Pang Tong had explained the changes in dynasties to him before, it was still quite difficult to understand at this time.

Later generations compared Sun to Lu Bu and Ma Chao, which made Lu Su dumbfounded. He felt that if Sun Hou was here, he would definitely feel insulted by future generations.

The ridicule of celebrities such as Sanjun, Bajun, Bagu, Bachu, etc. also made Lu Su agree in his heart.

But until I heard about the emergence of the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System, and the younger generation casually commented:

"The advantaged class will not hesitate to destroy the system and exchange for the hereditary monopoly status at the expense of the country's decline."

This sentence was like a bell ringing in Lu Su's mind. He had seen with his own eyes how Jiangdong's surname was seeking personal gain. Lu Su could not understand it more clearly. However, through the mouths of later generations, this ugly behavior of the surname was finally clearly exposed. appeared before his eyes.

"Silverfish..." Lu Su took a breath and murmured in a low voice.

Pang Tong grinned: Where are you?

Luoshui's fart created the two absurd Jin Dynasties, and the aristocratic family claimed the country and fell into chaos.

The clans fight for wealth and use the people as money, and they are extravagant and subjugate the country in pursuit of mystery and nothingness.

Seeing Lu Su gradually opening his mouth and finding it difficult to close it because of the actions of the clan leader, Pang Tong knew very well in his heart.

The brief description of these two Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties by later generations may not be as complete as the chaos.

A few princes with big surnames were enough to destroy the Han Dynasty and compete for the name of the emperor. Pang Tong probably had a guess as to what kind of chaos the Jin, Five Hus, Sixteen Kingdoms, Southern and Northern Dynasties could become.

Lu Su's furrowed brows and open mouth were gradually pushed to the Tang Dynasty as the light screen progressed, and then he finally settled down. However, he gradually became a little curious as he read about Buddhism:

"Is this a person who has a temple of obscenity that rises like a rong, with copper as its golden body, and its clothes and brocade hanging from the nine layers of copper?"

Kong Ming was really curious at this moment:

"Have you seen Zijing?"

"Jiangdong is quite close to Xuzhou." Lu Su explained:

"The Buddha Bathing Festival was a grand event at the time, and Jiangdong also heard about it."

"After Zuo Rong's death, many monks, soldiers, and masters fled to the east of the Yangtze River. Many of them joined the nobles to serve as servants. They taught Buddhism in their spare time to keep their slaves and maids at ease. They had a good reputation among the nobles in Jiangdong."

Kong Ming and others looked at each other, and Liu Bei sighed:

"These Jiangdong people..." He remembered the words used by a younger generation and said: "They are quite advanced."

Lu Su didn't know why, but he still nodded, because the scene of the future suddenly appeared on the light screen, which made him dizzy, and he no longer had time to listen to what Xuande Gong had to say.

When Lu Su came to his senses again, both his numb knees and calves and the golden crow outside the door that had turned westward reminded him that a long time had passed since the end of the light curtain today.

Turn your head to the right, the upper position is empty.

"Xuan Degong has gone out for inspection. Now that the weather is getting colder, we must ensure that the candidates who come from far west of the city are not in danger of freezing."

Lu Su was startled by the sudden sound. His legs, which were already numb from kneeling, had long since lost consciousness. He was suddenly frightened and fell down immediately.

Fortunately, someone was holding him firmly when he almost made a fool of himself. Lu Su also saw clearly the person holding him:

"Kong Ming?"

Kong Ming supported Lu Su and made him sit from kneeling to lying, laughing:

"Zijing finally came back to life!"

Lu Su couldn't help but blush a little. Now he remembered that since he saw the statues in the never-sleeping Chang'an in the future, his mind had been completely away from this place.

In his spare time, Pang Tong, an old colleague, once told him about the Lu Su Temple in the future.

He was not reused, died suddenly of illness, and Jiangdong declined. Although his descendants eventually made a legend for him, he still needed to be famous for his achievements. How many achievements did he have?

Therefore, when he saw the statues praising his achievements on the long street with bright lights, Lu Su felt that it was quite normal to envy them and wished he could stand in them.

But the content on the light screen changed so quickly that he felt overwhelmed.

The glorious Tang Dynasty collapsed under the hands of a private salt dealer.

Why should a common man fear Huang Chao's coming? When my flower blooms, all other flowers will die!

The fragrance of the sky penetrates Chang'an, and the streets of heaven trample on the bones of the nobles!

The emperor fled west overnight, and the Qin woman sang sadly in the city.

The aristocratic family was destroyed, and the people were enlightened. The enlightenment of learning combined the views of thousands of years, and the advancement of science paved the way for culture.

One after another, Lu Su's brain had no time to think, and the new understanding of the aristocratic family and the people made Lu Su tremble in his heart.

No wonder Lord Xuande turned against the big family in Jingyi! No wonder the old man in Hanzhong also remembered the favor of Han and ordered his son to join the army! No wonder Lord Xuande had all kinds of new things under his command!

The huge thing that could lift a huge boat from the sea made Lu Su pale, and it was difficult to estimate its power.

But soon, the grand scene rising into the sky on the light curtain broke his thoughts again.

Use the stars to record the merits, use the moon palace to record the name, build the heavenly palace to be close to the myth, and then lead the army to the sea of ​​stars.

Looking back again at the palace of heaven made by the people, he saw a magnificent blue star.

The debates of various schools of thought resounded in his mind. Millions of sages had lit fire to create China, and it was finally over. Did the ancestors whose names were engraved in the scriptures ever think of this day?

From the ancient times when people created characters and lit fire to survive, to the later generations who explored the sea and the sky, an unprecedented magnificent picture slowly unfolded in front of Lu Su.

Lu Su had a strong idea: he wanted to write his name bigger and brighter on this picture!

"Why is Zijing so stupid again?"

A pair of hands waved in front of his eyes twice, and Lu Su finally came back to his senses. He eagerly grabbed the hands and asked:

"Kongming... General Zuo... No, when will Lord Xuande return? Su wants to see him."

Kongming smiled, patted Lu Su's shoulder with his free hand and said:

"I have had Zijing's thoughts, Shiyuan has also had them, Xiaozhi and Xianhe have all had them? General Yunchang and Yuanzhi fought in Jingzhou for a year, and they also had Zijing's thoughts."

"We have the same ideals and aspirations. Zijing is really Liang's best friend!"

After his mentality was completely calm, Lu Su gradually recalled more of the content of the letter that Kongming wrote to him.

He smiled bitterly and said:

"All the unbelievable things that Kong Ming said before turned out to be true. It's ridiculous that I still want to judge what Xuande meant from it. It's really like buying a box and returning the pearl."

Kong Ming shook his head and said:

"How could you believe it when I told you that?"

"But now, Zi Jing wants to do his best, so he should do well in the imperial examination."

Lu Su understood.
