The Legend of Shushan Xuanjian

Chapter 310
Bai Yujing in the sky, five cities on the twelfth floor.

Immortals caress my top and endure longevity.

Learn swords and turn yourself over, how can you accomplish anything for writing.

The sword is not the enemy of ten thousand people, but the text steals the sound of the world.

——Excerpt from Li Bai's "Jing Luan Li Hou Tian En Liu Yelang Recalling the Old Travel Books Gifted to Jiangxia Wei Taishou Liang Zai"

……

Seeing the easing of the atmosphere, Bonnie Atti slowly revealed the mystery.

Boni Atti said: "In our Persia, a hundred years ago, a wise man who shocked the past and present was born, called Khwarizmi, known as the 'House of Wisdom in Baghdad', and he is the chief elder of our Persian Wisdom Palace.

Hua Lazimi studied in Tianzhu when he was young, and he is a rare all-rounder wise man with both civil and military skills. He has extremely high attainments in martial arts, mathematics, geomancy, astrology, and alchemy.

Hua Lazimi is an incomparable martial arts genius, who has cultivated to the eleventh level of Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung Fu, and is invincible in Persia, Dashi, and Tianzhu.

Khwarizmi's famous work "Shudao" introduced Tianzhu numbers to Persia.

In order to accurately measure astrology, azimuth and time, so that believers can worship in the exact direction at the exact time.Khwarizmi expanded the scope of astrology that has been passed down for hundreds of years.

In order to observe the starry sky, Khwarizmi also invented the quadrant, and invented the sine and cosine numbers for calculating astrology.

At the same time, Khwarizmi is proficient in geomancy and is good at drawing maps.The locations of the countries and city-states in the Western Regions, major rivers, and topography are clearly marked on the map.

During the period of the Persian king Kusahe, there was civil strife in Persia, Khwarizmi offended the Persian king, and the Wisdom Palace was burned down.Hualazimi entered the Sui Dynasty with Li Yu, Yunqiwei, the envoy of Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty.

A few years later, the tyranny of Emperor Yangdi caused chaos in the world and the end of the Sui Dynasty.Khwarizmi has never been heard from since.

Later, Yi Siqi, the last king of Persia, was defeated by Dashi, fled to Mulu City in Tocharo, and was killed, and the Sasanian Empire perished.

At this time, Khwarizmi wrote his understanding in his later years on the parchment scrolls. When these three parchment scrolls were sent back to Persia, they shocked the entire Dashi world.

The Persian royal family reflected on how Persia would be wiped out by the Great Eater if Khoraz was close.Even if Khwarizmi passed away, if his apprentices or all his works were found, Persia could be rejuvenated.

As a result, the Persian royal family began to look for Huarazmi in Datang.Although the Persian royal family knew that Huarazmi was hiding in Datang, they didn't know where they lived.

During the reign of Emperor Gaozong Xianheng, Prince Belus, the son of Yisiqi, took refuge in Chang'an, and was appointed General Youwuwei, who died in Chang'an as a guest.Throughout his life, he did not find out the whereabouts of Khwarizmi.

In the first year of Emperor Gaozong's Tiaolu, Ni Nie Shishi, the son of Prince Belus, returned to the country under the escort of the Tang army for restoration, but failed, and lived in Tocharo for more than [-] years.In the second year of Zhongzong Jinglong, Master Ni Nie returned to Chang'an and was appointed General Zuo Weiwei, and later died as a guest in Zhongtu.Throughout his life, he did not find out the whereabouts of Huarazmi's disciples and his posthumous works.

Just when my people had no hope of finding the whereabouts of Huarazmi, they unexpectedly discovered clues from the poems of Li Bai, a poet of the Tang Dynasty.

After Li Bai's poems were introduced to Persia with Sogdian merchants, we know that Huarazmi did not die in the war at the end of Sui Dynasty, but hid in the residence of Li Jiancheng, the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

The story was full of twists and turns, Bai Fu became interested and asked, "Why didn't Hualazimi choose to hide himself as the crown prince instead of the Emperor Taizu or the King of Qin?"

Boni Atti said: "Hualazimi believed that Li Jiancheng was the reincarnation of King Bishamon, so he changed Li Jiancheng's character to Bishamen and served Prince Yin for life.

At that time, Prince Li Jiancheng and Qin Wang Li Shimin fought to the death.For the sake of safety, Li Jiancheng hid his son among the people and let Hua Lazimi take care of him.

In the ninth year of Wude, the Xuanwu Gate changed, and the hidden prince Li Jian was killed by Li Shimin at the age of 38, and his five sons were killed together.

Hua Lazimi took Li Jiancheng's only surviving son and escaped from Chang'an overnight, fled to the Western Regions, and finally settled in Suiye.

Li Shimin learned that another son had slipped through the net, and asked Li Jing, Su Dingfang and other frontier generals to find this son and kill the grass.

But once you come to the vast Western Regions, finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack.Second, in order to recruit Wang Gui, Wei Zheng, Xue Wanche, Xue Wanjun brothers and others, ordering them to swear allegiance to the death, so as to show their benevolence.Three times, Li Jing deliberately delayed.Li Jing was asked to be executed that year, and Li Jiancheng was in charge of the execution.Li Jiancheng kept people under the sword, and Li Jing was able to survive.

……

After a long time, as the change of Xuanwu Gate gradually faded out of the hearts of the people, Emperor Taizong finally dispelled this idea.

In the second year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong issued a decree to posthumously confer Li Jian as King Xi.In the 16th year of Zhenguan, he was given to the prince posthumously, and his posthumous title was hidden. "

When talking about the relationship between Prince Yin and King Bishamon, Sun Dashan smiled and added: ""Shishi Yuanliu" records: 'The uprising soldiers, the gods and the people should work together to stop the chaos. Wei Taizong will be a great success.'

In the past, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty rebelled against Gaozu. There was a god in front of him, who claimed to be the king of Bishamon.And when he ascended the throne, he was ordered to be worshiped by all the governments of the world. '

It means that when Gaozu raised his troops, a god who claimed to be the king of Bishamon vowed to work together to stop the chaos. He had a general with a pig's head and an elephant trunk to protect the Tang army invincible.After Emperor Taizong came to the throne, he issued an edict that all state capitals in the world should worship and worship Bishamon God.

This King Bishamon alluded to Prince Yin.If I'm not mistaken, this pig-headed elephant-nosed general is Huarazmi.

In addition, "Cefu Yuangui" records: "Emperor Taizong first placed Bishamon God and merits in Penglai Hall".

It can be seen from these records that Emperor Taizong felt guilty in his later years and enshrined the statue of Bishamon and his merits in the Penglai Hall where he lived.

……

When Emperor Xuanzong was young, thanks to the blessing of King Bishamon, he was able to quell many chaos, so he specially ordered the Tang army to enshrine it. Among the Tang troops, all flags were drawn in the image of King Bishamon, called "Tianwang Banner". To bless Wu Yun Changlong.

Master Bukong Sanzang's translation of "Northern Bishamen Heavenly King Follows the King to Protect the Dharma" records:

In the first year of Tianbao, Anxi City was besieged by the Fan army, and King Bishamon appeared on the tower of the north gate of the city, shining brightly.And there was a "golden mouse" biting off the bowstring of the enemy army. Three or five hundred divine soldiers wearing gold armor beat drums and the sound shook three hundred miles. The mansion set up a statue of the king of heaven in the northwest corner of the tower to make offerings to. '

King Bishamon is the king of many stories.For a while, King Bishamon's reputation was greatly shaken, and the incense was very prosperous. "

……

After Sun Dashan finished adding, Boni Atti continued: "When Xuanzong ascended the throne, a hundred years had passed since the Xuanwumen Incident, and the lineage of Prince Yin was no longer a threat to the imperial power.

In addition, Emperor Xuanzong enshrined Bishamon Heavenly King, and the lineage of the hidden prince returned to the Tang Dynasty from broken leaves, and the fallen leaves returned to their roots, hidden in Qinglian Township, Changming, Mianzhou, Jiannan Road, West Shu.

Li Bai is the great-great-grandson of Prince Yin Li Jiancheng.The order of its genealogy is Li Yuan——Li Jiancheng——Li Chengzong——Chengzong's son——Li Ke——Li Bai. "

……

"Ah!" This past event was too bizarre, even though Bai Fu was prepared, he couldn't help but exclaim.

Bai Fu asked, "How do you know Li Bai's life experience?"

Tu Xingsun smiled awkwardly, and said: "I stole into Prince Yin's tomb, and read the documents hidden inside, including Emperor Taizong's own handwriting.

Of course, I just looked through the evidence, but didn't take anything. "

"That can only prove that Prince Yin has a descendant, but it cannot prove that Li Bai is the descendant of Prince Yin?" Bai Fu asked.

Bonnie Atti smiled slyly, and said, "I tied up the Banished Immortal and covered up the truth!"

……

Bai Fu is both angry and cheerful. Anyone who can treat Tang poets like this must not be from Tang Dynasty.
