Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

"Smallpox, Tang Dynasty, is there going to be smallpox?"

The palace maid swallowed hard and shouted out in a hoarse voice, using all her strength.

Empress Changsun looked at her blankly.

His eyes fell on the letter again.

My throat hurts.

But she still swallowed several times, then put her hands on her knees and stood up heavily.

"No, no, I'm going to Ganlu Palace, you take care of Xiao Sizi."

Empress Chang Sun said anxiously.

The maid was still in a daze.

Empress Chang Sun let out a breath and continued, "This news must be told to His Majesty. Changle will never lie to us."

"If we don't control it, by next spring, our Tang Dynasty might...maybe it will really explode."

Empress Changsun's shoulders were shaking like sieves.

Her rapid breathing turned into clouds and mist, floating in the cold sky. She was sweating all over because of her anxiety, and the white smoke above her head swirled towards the sky.

"Okay, mother... mother, please go quickly."

"Be careful, be careful! Don't be in a hurry, be careful on the road!"

The maid responded hurriedly.

But how could Empress Chang Sun not be anxious? She rushed down quickly, taking two steps at a time, stumbling and almost falling to the ground several times.

……

Ganlu Temple.

The sunlight just happened to shine through the doors and windows of the hall, completely dispelling the darkness inside the hall.

Deep inside the two sides of the hall, it was like sparkling waves. The sunlight shone through the windows and fell on the ground like starlight, dot by dot, mottled and lovely.

The desk where Li Shimin was sitting was directly enveloped by the sunlight coming in from the main hall door.

As the sunlight moved little by little, it was about to shine on him, but now the sunlight was still above the desk and did not completely shine on Li Shimin who was sitting behind the desk.

Li Shimin was holding the latest issue of Dayan Weekly in his hand.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were sitting on both sides with their legs crossed, sipping tea leisurely.

It was a lonely winter day and they had nothing to do. Today happened to be the publication day of the Dayan Weekly, so they came to Ganlu Hall to discuss this issue of the Dayan Weekly.

"Dayan, what are you doing?"

"You want to hang missiles on fighter jets?"

"What is a missile?"

"There's no introduction here, just a name."

Li Shimin frowned slightly, very puzzled.

"Who knows? The Da Yan side is more advanced than the others. Hmph, I guess they haven't researched the missile thoroughly yet, or they don't want to tell us, so they don't introduce anything and just let us guess."

"Put the missiles on the fighter jets."

"Huh... Could this be the fighting method of a fighter jet?"

"But missiles, what's the use?"

"Missile, Troublemaker, these names, the Great Yan Emperor and his people are really good at naming."

Fang Xuanling shook his head. He couldn't guess what this thing was used for.

“Hahaha…” Wei Zheng chuckled: “Troublemaker, don’t say it, this name is really similar, isn’t it just Troublemaker?”

Li Shimin was also amused and nodded slightly.

"Da Yan's floor heating is fucking terrible."

"real or fake?"

Li Shimin brought up this matter again. The Dayan Weekly was still reporting on floor heating.

As he spoke, Li Shimin glanced at the stove next to his table.

However, although the stove was burning brightly, the temperature was not very high. It could only keep my legs from being too cold, but my upper body was still a little shivering.

"This should be true."

Fang Xuanling nodded: "Otherwise, I wouldn't have been reporting all the time."

In fact, Fang Xuanling was so confident mainly because he also received a letter from Fang Yiai, which also talked about the floor heating and said that after a few years, when they were older, he would let him retire and return to his hometown to recuperate in Hall No. 1, saying that there was no winter in Dayan.

This made Fang Xuanling feel really envious and a little bit expectant.

Li Shimin nodded, and he turned to another small piece, on which was written just one sentence: "The King of Land Warfare is being designed, please look forward to it?"

“The King of Land Wars?
"This name is a little unfamiliar. This is probably the first time it's been mentioned in the Great Yan Weekly."

"Damn, this name is too domineering, but why is it only used in such a small space?"

Li Shimin's brows suddenly frowned, and his heart began beating wildly when he saw these four words.

He had a hunch that this thing was probably not inferior to the fighter jet, the king of the sky!

King of land warfare?

When they heard this name, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng were both shocked. They stood up quickly and wanted to see what was written in the Dayan Weekly.

But, just at this time.

suddenly!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty! No, no, something has happened, Your Majesty!"

Empress Changsun's anxious voice sounded from outside the hall.

Can,
This is not over yet. Li Junxian has already rushed into the hall, looking extremely excited and crazy.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

"Dayan, the court of Dayan has sent a letter to your majesty!"

"Urgent!!"

Li Junxian's voice also sounded instantly.

All of a sudden, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng all raised their heads, staring at Li Junxian with horror in their eyes.

For a time, Empress Changsun was neglected.

after all,

No matter what happens, it is not bigger than the letter sent by the Yan court to the Tang Dynasty!

Moreover, it is extremely urgent!

Dayan, the national letter?
hiss….
The three of them all gasped and subconsciously looked at each other, their eyes blank and shocked.

what happened?

Why did the Great Yan court send a letter at this time?
Still, so urgent?
Moreover, the Great Yan State Book?
You know, they have been waiting for this thing for four years, a full four years, but there has been no news at all. Now, it just appears like this, without any sign at all.

To be honest, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng were all a little shocked.

Just at this time, Empress Chang Sun walked in, holding the letter tightly in her hand, but she did not speak directly for a while.

She was outside just now, so naturally she heard what Li Junxian shouted.

Letter from the Great Yan Kingdom!

Dayan, here comes the letter from the country!
She was also a little surprised by this news. Could Dayan send a letter to the Tang Dynasty?

But a moment later, Empress Changsun's eyes became a little dazed, and a guess suddenly popped up in her mind, that is, this letter should also record the incident about smallpox.

Absolutely!
Otherwise, why would Dayan send a letter of state to the Tang Dynasty?
There is absolutely no possibility of this!
"A letter from the Great Yan Kingdom?"

Li Shimin walked down from behind the desk, his eyes were solemn and his breathing was a little heavy.

He didn't pay too much attention to Empress Changsun.

After all, at this moment, nothing could be more important than the letter from the Great Yan Kingdom.

Li Shimin swallowed hard, his breathing was rapid, and his mouth was very dry.

"Bring it up."

"Isn't there an envoy from Great Yan accompanying this letter from Great Yan?"

Li Shimin said in a deep voice. "Your Majesty, no, there is only one messenger."

"Yes, because the situation is urgent, this letter was also transmitted via telegram, and there is no jade seal of the Great Yan Emperor on it for the time being."

"In a few days, the official letter from the Great Yan Kingdom will be delivered to you. However, the Great Yan Kingdom hopes that Your Majesty will know the information inside now."

"Urgent!"

"They said it was related to the future of the Tang Dynasty."

Li Junxian presented it and said respectfully.

"No imperial seal?"

When Li Shimin heard this, his brows furrowed again.

What kind of official letter is it without the imperial seal?
Dayan is so rude. This is really a wild and desolate place where no one knows the rules.

A letter of credence is an extremely important document. Even if you don't have to send a special team of envoys to deliver it, you must stamp it with the imperial seal anyway.

But there is no way, because time is too urgent.

After Liu Bowen wrote the letter, he handed it to the communications station.

Although there are telegrams, there is no fax technology at the moment, so the imperial seal cannot be delivered.

"Your Majesty, the Great Yan side said that this is extremely urgent. I think we should take a look at the content first. If it is really urgent, then it is understandable. After all, a telegram is much faster than delivering a letter in person."

"I guess Dayan is getting anxious and can't wait that long."

Fang Xuanling spoke immediately. He also saw the displeasure on Li Shimin's face. As Li Shimin's confidant, he could be said to be a worm in Li Shimin's stomach. To be honest, every move of Li Shimin could not escape Fang Xuanling's speculation. Fang Xuanling naturally knew what Li Shimin was thinking at this moment, so he immediately opened his mouth to explain.

Since Dayan said it was a state letter, Fang Xuanling thought that Dayan would not use this matter to make fun of Tang Dynasty no matter what. Otherwise, it would not be Tang Dynasty or Li Shimin who would be embarrassed, but Dayan and the Emperor of Dayan!
This matter must be extremely urgent, so the only way to reissue it is to use the official letter with the imperial seal on the back of the telegram.

"Yes, Your Majesty, let's take a look at what's written inside first."

"The Great Yan Emperor is definitely not that kind of boring person."

"Since they, Da Yan, did this, they definitely have their own ideas and reasons."

"Your Majesty, please take a look first."

Wei Zheng immediately agreed.

The two of them looked at Li Shimin, whose face turned a little dark, and tried to comfort him.

Li Shimin nodded, and after listening to their explanations, his expression became better.

"Humph!"

"However, even so, it also shows that the Great Yan Emperor is too rude! In this regard, he should learn more from our Great Tang."

"Besides, no matter how urgent the situation is, it won't affect us."

"I really don't know what the Great Yan Emperor is going to do."

"Could it be that you want to send me to the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Shimin snorted coldly and opened the letter from the credential.

Read on.

Every word and every line was taken very seriously.

In fact, although Li Shimin expressed some dissatisfaction with Dayan's reckless behavior, he also attached great importance to this matter in his heart.

Letter from the Great Yan Kingdom!

No matter what, this was the first time I received a letter from the Great Yan Kingdom.

Thinking about the last time, the delegation he sent out was actually directly rejected by the Emperor of Dayan. He didn't know whether his letter of credence was actually delivered to the Emperor of Dayan.

Speaking of which, this was the first communication and also the first time that Datang received a reply from Dayan.

Coupled with the increasingly terrifying situation of Da Yan in recent years, various factors made Li Shimin feel extremely solemn and expectant.

He really hoped that the Tang Dynasty could have a real dialogue with the Great Yan, so that he could get to know the Great Yan emperor and what the Great Yan court was planning.

However, Li Shimin had a good idea, but when he saw the letter in his hand...
Pfft!
After a few breaths, there was a dull thud, and Li Shimin fell to the ground with his butt.

Li Shimin was dumbfounded.

He is really stupid.

The corners of the mouth trembled.

I feel cold all over.

Eyes, exploding.

Shortness of breath.

incredible!

Unbelievable!

Cold blood!
Chilling madness!

"No no no no…."

Li Shimin's eyes were like magnets. He stared at the letter, which was not complicated or had many words. However, the impact of this letter on him was like someone holding a Mount Tai and smashing it heavily on his heart. All the blood in his body spurted out, and his entire soul was crushed.

He had never thought that the Tang Dynasty would actually experience such a thing. To be honest, this incident was really beyond his expectations.

Senseless!
Silly!

Surprised!

Blasted!

How could this be?
How could this be?
How could this be?
Li Shimin is like a fool now, motionless.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty!!"

"Your Majesty, what is going on? Your Majesty, what happened?"

Seeing this, Fang Xuanling immediately rushed forward and knelt down in front of Li Shimin.

"Yes, Your Majesty, what's going on? What did the Emperor of Dayan say? What exactly is going on in Dayan? Your Majesty, what are Dayan and the others going to do?"

Wei Zheng was horrified and asked repeatedly.

But Li Shimin did not move.

Snapped!
The letter of credence in his hand floated weakly to the ground.

But his entire posture remained motionless and unchanged.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui immediately picked up the letter, hurriedly leaned aside, and read it quickly.

“This….No!”

"impossible!!!"

"this!"

In an instant, Fang Xuanling understood why Li Shimin reacted in such a way.

terror!
so horrible!

Smallpox appeared in Jiangnan Road.

Gudong!

Fang Xuanling swallowed hard and felt his throat sore.

"How could this happen? Is this true?"

"No, no."

"We have never heard of smallpox in Jiangnan Road recently!"

"Why is the Great Yan Emperor so sure? He wants us to clean up quickly, otherwise by next spring, the Great Tang will once again become a living hell."

"Him, why do they know?"

"Not a single official from Jiangnan Province has submitted a memorial."

Wei Zheng was also panicked and confused. To be honest, when encountering such a thing, no one would not panic and be confused.

Even if they are Fang Xuanling, what about Wei Zheng?

smallpox!

This name means the devil, the devil that can devour everything! (End of this chapter)
