Tang Qi Tan

And in Da Nei (Ziwei City), the imperial city of Luodu, wearing a deep purple Dake (big tuanhua) satin shirt, folded turban, nine-ring belt, and Liuhe boots, the prince of the dynasty looked dignified and elegant; Surrounded by all the attendants, they walked westward through the palace complexes such as Feixiang Hall, Liubei Hall, and Dayi Hall.

It's just that when he finally came to the Shanzhai Courtyard by the Kyushu Pool in the Taoguang Garden in the northwest of the imperial city, there were only the last two eunuchs left by his side.In the soft voice of the internal officials, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also stepped up the long steps alone, and arrived at the largest palace building in the courtyard.

In the brightly lit hall, there is only a slightly chunky but majestic figure; quietly standing in front of the tall and long figure mural with his hands behind his back.I saw the crown prince bowing his hands respectfully and saluting: "Father, the night is heavy, please take care of your body..."

"..." However, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty laughed without looking back, and the laughing prince said with a tingle in his back: "My son is really filial! But I have been in power for 27 or [-] years, so take care of yourself." It doesn't hurt to take care of yourself; isn't there a big boy like you?"

"Father's words are serious... Father's words are serious." However, the prince became more sweaty when he heard the words: "You are at the time when the spring and autumn are in full swing, and everything can be done; How dare the sons and ministers go overboard; the only way is to serve relatives with filial piety."

"It's a country with laws and regulations, and the ancestors of the past dynasties have their own rules." The emperor of the Tang Dynasty still did not turn around, and naturally he couldn't see his true expression, but suddenly stared at a large mural of the ancestors' daily life in front of him. : "Actually, what I admire the most is the Xuanmiao!"

In this pair of group portraits and scene murals that are more than two feet high, it is impressive that Tang Xuanzong (Li Longji), who created the prosperity of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, accepted the ministers and the general public in the diligent government affairs building of Nannei (Xingqing Palace). The era of worship.However, the Son of Heaven continued to speak:

"At the beginning, Xuanmiao was nothing more than an idle king of the clan, but with hundreds of relatives, slaves and artisans in the inner garden, it easily overturned the arbitrary court program, the Queen Wei/Wu's party who overshadowed the sky with one hand; Jiangrui Temple Pushed to the honorable position, what a fascinating courage and heart this is!"

"..." Upon hearing the words, the crown prince showed confusion and confusion, so he hastily responded: "My son is terrified, and my son is also concerned about the merits of our ancestors, and is willing to assist your father..."

"Saburo doesn't need to panic, and I don't mean to be harsh; it's just that it's getting harder to sleep at night when I get old, and I just feel it when I'm here." However, the emperor turned his back to him and waved gently: "After all, Xuanmiao can After all, it was due to the right time, place and people;”

"It is nothing more than Webster's one-party dictatorship to disrupt the country and unpopularity. The people have long since betrayed their relatives, and there is a turmoil inside and outside; therefore, when Xuanmiao takes advantage of the momentum, it does not matter whether it is Yulin Tunmen, Wanqi Feijian, or Nanya Zhuwei; or Jing Cong, either watched from the wall; this is what made Jinglong Yiding."

"The widow is already old, and I can't help but face the ancestors, and I have to think too much." At this point, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty suddenly turned around: "It's my big brother, who will maintain the imperial lineage in the future. If the authority of the Tian family does not fall, I will count on you..."

However, when the prince, who was full of sadness and obedience, exited the Shanzhai courtyard, he suddenly stopped in an open place by the Kyushu pool.Immediately, an eunuch in folded clothes appeared from a nearby water pavilion, and the servants who followed him spontaneously walked to the sides to be vigilant.

"Chen Hemen, you are Tian Gong's most capable son-in-law, and you are also fortunate to serve your neighbors in front of the imperial court. I just want to ask you a word." The prince asked coldly and slightly: "How is your majesty's health recently? Has it really reached the point where you can no longer see things for a long time?"

"Return to your majesty." Chen Hemen, who was thin all over and had slender eyebrows and eyes, replied cautiously with lowered eyebrows: "According to several routine internal examinations, the majesty is always just a minor ailment; Coming again to Concubine Xing, I said that I want to practice abstinence and self-cultivation according to the regimen..."

At the same time, Jiang Tian, ​​who drove along the straight road all night, also returned to the underground headquarters in the southwest corner of Chang'an City.However, after a lapse of more than a month (a few years in another world), the headquarters located in the underground cavity is busier and busier;

Not only are there many new buildings and facilities in the ruins of the city square used as a simulation training; even the corridors and openings on the four walls have increased significantly.This also means that the underground space that was sealed in the past has been gradually unsealed due to needs.

Thousands of recruits are being trained in the expanded training ground; these soldiers with only a few leather and cloth armors are hidden in complex buildings and ruins from time to time, with their claws cut off and restraints attached The strange beasts were knocked over one after another and fell to the ground.

However, there are also some muscular or well-built soldiers who stand on high to monitor the scene; once they are used as training materials and against the target monsters, they will fly down if they show signs of losing control or breaking free Knock it down and re-suppress it easily.

And in the corridors and openings on the stone wall, craftsmen and handymen are constantly coming in and out, using trolleys and lifting platforms to transport a large amount of materials and equipment.And armored soldiers wearing gray spider shell armor and special goggle helmets, holding firecrackers and short-barreled hand cannons, shuttled between the time.

In addition, in the corner of the underground space, there is a large machine workshop driven by water wheels; the faint sparks and roars from smelting and forging, and the steam billowing from the cooling water pipes.It seems that under the skin of classical feudalism, there is a strange suture cyberpunk meaning.

However, on the top of a tower in the underground city square, there is something like a shrine placed under the cover of prayer flags written in Sanskrit, and from time to time emits a kind of fluctuation that seems to be absent; Inside, all living beings feel peace and tranquility.

Among them are some amateur soldiers and professional players with obvious physical distortions and abnormal expressions; there are also some aliens specially loaded in stainless steel cages.But no matter if it was common ferocious beasts, ghosts, or other grotesque existences, they all crouched in the cage.

It was as if under the cover of this invisible halo, these existences born due to mutations lost their bloodthirsty desires and violent impulses, and could only lie lazily in their cages. Food and animal organs; those who ignore it lose most of their interest.

There are even some severely deformed ghosts, who are obviously gradually re-transforming into human form.Other soldiers and team members with local distortions or abnormal expressions were also relieved and subsided under this invisible influence, and then were taken away for further treatment.

When Jiang Tian was surrounded by a group of cadres and subordinates, and stepped into the underground headquarters, there was a sudden loss of sound and silence in the place he passed, and then he saluted one after another and burst into waves of voices: "See the supervisor!" "Supervisor!" Si Wanan." "Meet the Shangguan." "Welcome Shangxian."

It's as if it suddenly broke the previous atmosphere of a certain clear distinction in each functional area.Immediately afterwards, Yu Cong, the deputy supervisor who had been notified in advance, also led the heads of various departments, with a complex expression on his face and forced to suppress certain emotions, came forward and said with relief:

"As long as the supervisor comes back, everything will be easy."

In fact, during the more than a month when Jiang Tian lost contact, as the deputy supervisor who stayed behind at the headquarters, he seemed to have endured all kinds of pressure from all sides;It also made him realize the fact that the other party is the real backbone of the Xijing branch.

After all, he neither has the tyrannical force to overthrow the entire field, nor the extraordinary ability to kill aliens like grass; nor does he have the prestige to create and train those elite soldiers from scratch, and equip them.Just an ordinary person and a qualified official with an imperial examination background;

Therefore, although Yu Cong can rely on the inertia and authority of the system to drive these subordinates with special expertise or extraordinary means; but he has no way to command them like an arm, or win their deep-seated conviction and obedience.And this situation also gave him a certain sense of crisis.

Because he found that compared to the chief official, his position is not irreplaceable; in other words, given the size of the country, he can always find someone who is more outstanding and superior than him, or someone with more power and background.After Dang Jiangtian lost contact, various situations followed.

Under the initiative to propose more materials, budget appropriation and quota establishment, it was the overt conspiracy of various yamen to insert and extend their hands into the Xijing Li Xingyuan; it even prevented him from refusing and confronting him head-on.But he can only take advantage of external pressure to unite the hearts of the people in the headquarters with his own interests.

On the one hand, they tried their best to procrastinate and deal with each other; at the same time, they also released true and false news and smoke; It is expected to keep the most core team of the Xijing branch.

Even if he gave up the command and control of the layman's fifth battalion, as well as the three key points of the grain hall, training hall, and labor camp hall.But as long as the most important machine room, as well as the internal security and mobile teams directly under it, are not dismantled or assigned elsewhere; then there is still room for redemption.

For this reason, Yu Cong almost didn't go home for a month, and lived in the headquarters day and night, so exhausted that he almost lost his hair.Now, with Jiang Tian's return, all of this has been completely resolved.Those people don't care about a mere Dongge bachelor;
But there is no way to ignore and ignore it. In today's world where monsters appear frequently; a "catastrophe" and "living star" who can use extraordinary means to ignore most of the constraints of the imperial court system will kill mountains of corpses and seas of blood wherever they pass. "Tai Sui", the consequences and costs of being angered.
