The mysterious bird of destiny, the beginning of China

Chapter 225 Replacement

The words of people who come from the same place as him make people believe that Luoyang City is also a prosperous big city, but it is second only to Chang'an City.

The number of merchants from other countries among them was no less than that of those in Chang'an City. When they heard what their "fellows" said, they had no choice but to believe it!

Then they learned the full story and details of the incident, which made them even more stunned and dumbfounded!

It turns out that the divine bird in the Heavenly Kingdom they spoke of really exists, and the divine bird also showed its power in front of them, using its magical power to easily eliminate the enemies within the Heavenly Kingdom!

At this moment, they only have endless awe in their hearts for this ancient and huge country!

"I didn't expect that there really was a divine bird in the Tang Dynasty. It was not made up by the Tang Dynasty!"

I saw a man from another country with a dark complexion say this. At the same time, his clothes were obviously different from those of people from the Tang Dynasty.

"Although the Tang Dynasty is powerful, our Tianzhu is not weak either!"

"I heard that Master Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty also came to our Tianzhu to obtain the true scriptures!"

Obviously, you can tell from their words that they are from Tianzhu.

But at this time, they could only get some comfort from what they said.

"I heard that a few decades ago, a general from the Tang Dynasty was kept alive by our Tianzhu..."

Several Tianzhu people seemed to feel a little jealous when they heard the divine bird of the Tang Dynasty showing off its power, and their words were full of sourness.

The Tang people on the side heard what the Tianzhu people said, and they suddenly felt unhappy. Then they heard what the Tianzhu people said about the General of the Tang Dynasty who was captured alive by them, and naturally they understood who they were talking about.

I saw a man from the Tang Dynasty dressed in silk clothes and said disdainfully: "This is really nonsense!"

"As far as I know, the general you are talking about is just an envoy from the Tang Dynasty. His name is Wang Xuance, and he is a civil servant!"

"Although it is not that I am incapable of tying a chicken, I am also proficient in the art of archery, but compared with a real general, there are still many shortcomings!"

"When Wang Xuance sent an envoy to Tianzhu, it happened that there was a mutiny in Tianzhu, so he suffered an unreasonable disaster. Unable to bear it, we could only fight with swords!"

"But I really didn't expect that Tianzhu among you is really too vulnerable. I never thought that our Tang Dynasty could destroy Tianzhu among you with only a few thousand troops!"

Even the thousands of troops led by Wang Xuance were not soldiers of the Tang Dynasty!

In other words, Wang Xuance destroyed the entire country of Tianzhu by himself!

The Tang man who spoke looked at the several Tianzhu people with contempt, "I wonder which country in Tianzhu you are from?!"

During the Taizong period, when Zhenguan was at its peak, Master Xuanzang went to Tianzhu to seek Buddhist teachings. After returning, he compiled the "Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" based on what he saw along the way!

The situation in Tianzhu is described in detail above!

Therefore, people in the Tang Dynasty now also know that Tianzhu is divided into many countries. For the convenience of naming, they started calling some countries in Tianzhu with the prefixes of southeast, northwest, and middle!

Hearing the scoldings from the Tang people around them, seeing the disdainful looks from other Tang people around them, and even seeing the ridicule from people from other countries, they immediately stopped talking.

I was too timid to answer!

At this time, the Tang Dynasty was so prestigious that all the countries in the world were convinced. People from other countries had a natural awe for the Tang Dynasty, and they looked at the Tang people as if they were superiors.

When I heard the Tang people scolding me, I naturally didn't have the courage and guts to refute.

After all, what the Tang Dynasty said is true. If he refutes it, he will expose the scandal of his country in front of everyone!

In short, the divine bird showed its power and destroyed the rebels in Luoyang City, which made the people of the Tang Dynasty cheer and made people from other countries who came to the Tang Dynasty feel the power of the divine bird!

When these people from other countries returned to their own country, they would tell others about the sword spirit in the Tang Dynasty, or pass it on orally, and then write it down in books, which would become precious classics for future generations.

As time went by, they had many names for that huge and ancient country in the east:

A gorgeous country, an ancient oriental country, a country of porcelain, a country of Tang people, a country of divine birds...

The traitor general Yang Lang, who was sent to the palace by the divine bird, naturally suffered a fair trial. Under the watchful eyes of the people in the city, he received the treatment he deserved!

The major corruption case that triggered Yang Lang's rebellion is still under investigation. The investigation took only half a year. The incident affected so many people and its scope was so wide that it can be called the most corruption case in the Tang Dynasty!

However, since the Divine Bird took action on Luoyang City, the world has never seen the Divine Bird again.

They were not surprised by this. After all, the divine bird was not something ordinary people could see if they wanted to see it. It was normal not to be able to see it.

At Princess Yong'an's Mansion, Li Xinni had not seen the divine bird for a long time, but she was not worried at all. The divine bird had promised after leaving that the divine bird would fall asleep again.

Time flies, 705 AD, the ninth year of the Republic of Divine Birds.

The Tang Dynasty has been without an emperor for ten years, but its national power is unprecedentedly strong and its territory is unprecedentedly vast.

The tentacles of the Tang Empire touched the west of the Western Region, the south touched Tianzhu across thousands of mountains and rivers, and the east reached the sea. The Imperial Protectorate of Japan had been ruled by the Tang Dynasty for nearly seven years!

To the north, the desert is vast, and the nomadic peoples on the grasslands are surrendered to the power of the Tang Dynasty. At the same time, they also rely on the prosperous merchant trade of the Tang Dynasty, and their lives are better than ever before!

As far south as the ends of the earth, the merchant ships of the Tang Dynasty have set sail, bringing with them the rare treasures of many island countries in the sea!

The Tang Dynasty was unprecedentedly prosperous, and the east of the world was affected by the Tang Dynasty.

In Chang'an City, the power center of the Tang Dynasty, people of all kinds from all over the world gathered here. There were even merchants from the Western Regions selling Kunlun slaves, and rare treasures gathered here.

Perhaps because of the divine power of the divine bird, people from other countries also knew that the Tang Dynasty possessed the divine bird. The first thing that every ancient person who came to the Tang Dynasty asked about was the divine bird.

Know where the divine bird sleeps!

Perhaps because of this, the Tang Dynasty guarded the Lishan Divine Bird Temple even more tightly.

And when the court learned that the sacred bird was sleeping in the sacred bird palace, no one could go to the sacred bird palace anymore.

The Divine Bird Palace, which had been silent for four years, suddenly changed today. The ancient palace full of pre-Qin style suddenly emitted a brilliant divine light, like the sun falling from the sky to the earth.

The soldiers guarding below noticed the strangeness immediately, with a look of shock on their faces, and then told the people below, "Go to Chang'an City quickly and inform the Prime Minister that there is something strange happening in the Bird Palace!"

During the four years when the divine bird was sleeping, many affairs of the imperial court were led by the cabinet, and the leader of the cabinet was Prime Minister Di Renjie.

That's why the soldiers wanted to notify the prime minister of something happening as soon as possible.

Of course, Princess Yongan was also notified!

The light emitted by the Divine Bird Palace could be clearly seen in Chang'an City. While everyone was amazed, they immediately rushed out of the city, and then rushed in the direction of Lishan Mountain.

With the passage of time, and the show of power of the divine bird four years ago, the divine bird gradually became deified. People believe that as long as they see the divine bird or get close to it, they will receive the blessings of the divine bird!

May your life be safe and smooth!

This is why they went so crazy and quickly headed towards Lishan Mountain.

After waking up, Bai Zhi looked at his feathers emitting a red divine light, and couldn't help but be immersed in the changes in his body.

Then he discovered that his body seemed to become more powerful, and the energy in his body was endless. It seemed that he could destroy the world with just one move!

After a while, he controlled the light around him to dim slowly, and then flew out of the Divine Bird Palace.

Outside the Divine Bird Hall, the sun is just right, and the warm sunshine falls on the body, making people feel the comfort of the warm spring sun.

The trees on the surrounding mountains are fresh, there are flowers blooming on both sides of the steps, bees and butterflies are flying, and the fragrance of flowers is fragrant.

Although the ground is also covered with dead leaves, when walking down the main hall of the Divine Bird Hall, you can see that the steps below have become extremely clean and tidy.

The reason why the front of the Divine Bird Hall is covered with dead leaves is because there are sacred birds living above, and no one is allowed to approach it.

The sun is shining brightly in spring, and it’s the season of revival for all things.

Bai Zhi turned to look at the green branches. The tender green leaves had just unfolded, but countless birds had landed on the branches. Against the background of the flowers, they looked full of life and vitality!

The divine bird wakes up, and hundreds of birds come to welcome you!

The birds were chirping, jumping, cheering, and singing on the branches, as if they were welcoming and cheering for Bai Zhi's awakening.

Feeling the joy of the birds, Bai Zhi waved his wings to let the birds disperse. The soldiers guarding the Bird Palace below saw all this, their faces full of awe. At the same time, they stood taller and taller, as if they wanted to show their bravest side in front of the divine bird!

"How long has it been?"

Bai Zhi flew down the steps slowly, came to a soldier, and asked.

The soldier who was questioned suddenly breathed a little faster and replied excitedly:

"Hui Shenniao, four years have passed since Luoyang City suppressed the rebellion!"

"Four years? Does that mean it's now the ninth year of the Divine Bird Republic?"

"Exactly!"

The guards on the side nodded quickly.

"It's just the right time to wake up...Thank you for your answer."

Bai Zhi thanked the soldiers beside him and continued flying down the mountain.

Flying over the continuous palaces at the foot of the mountain, Bai Zhi saw the people rushing towards the foot of the mountain. Bai Zhi knew that it was the divine light that he radiated when he woke up that attracted them.

After hesitating for a moment, Bai Zhi floated quietly in the air, allowing the people at the foot of the mountain to see him. After a long time, he disappeared into the air in an instant.

Princess Yong'an Mansion.

Seeing the sudden appearance of the divine bird, Li Xinni was surprised and couldn't help but said: "I wonder if the divine bird can see the imperial envoy at the foot of Lishan Mountain?"

"Never?"

Bai Zhi shook his head. Apparently, he missed the messenger from the imperial court.

"The divine light when you woke up, Divine Bird, could be seen in Chang'an City. Naturally, the people in the cabinet also saw it, so they sent a waiter to greet you when you woke up!"

"It seems like he obviously missed it!"

Li Xinni smiled slightly, her smile still as beautiful as ever.

But it was just a moment of smile.

As he lived longer, it became harder and harder for Li Xinni to smile. It seemed that there was nothing in the world that could make him happy.

Seeing Li Xinni like this, Bai Zhi couldn't help but feel a little confused in his heart. Will it make her suffer if Li Xinni lives for such a long time?

This thought flashed away, and then he said: "It doesn't matter, I will naturally enter the palace in a while. After all, the ten-year period has arrived!"

"So fast..."

After hearing the divine bird say the ten-year period, Li Xinni not only looked a little dull, but also slowly put down the book in her hand.

Noticing the change in Li Xinni's mood, Bai Zhi couldn't help asking softly: "Do you regret letting yourself live forever?"

"regret?"

Hearing the divine bird's inquiry, Li Xinni came back to her senses, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

After a moment, he replied, "What is there to regret?... It should be said that there is nothing to regret!"

"I am immortal and have witnessed the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. I have also allowed the Women's Palace and Junzi Tower to continue to be like this and not be infected by the world!"

"I have lived forever, and I have also experienced endless loneliness in life, and I have felt the loneliness in countless late nights."

"I have lived forever, and I have witnessed all kinds of people and felt the lives of different people."

"I am immortal and have read many beautiful words, beautiful poems and books..."

"..."

"...Wait a little longer!"

Li Xinni suddenly let out a long sigh, "This immortality is indeed a cup of poisonous wine. Only those who have tasted it can feel the pain of the poison of immortality..."

"Wait another fifty years, for a period of fifty years, and then let me pass away!"

Speaking of this, Li Xinni's face was filled with a smile, as if his death fifty years later was an ordinary person's yearning for a better life.

"Actually, it's not like that. Being independent from history, it is also interesting to sit and watch the long river of history flow slowly."

Bai Zhi said quickly.

"That's it!"

Li Xinni sighed, then picked up the book beside him and continued reading.

Seeing this, Bai Zhi stopped persuading.

But before entering the palace, he said: "In one month, I will choose a new emperor. Do you have a candidate?"

"Nothing."

Li Xinni said.

However, during the ten years of the Divine Bird Republic, all the descendants of the Li Tang clan will enter Princess Yong'an's Mansion to accompany the ancestor of the Li Tang clan.

Therefore, how could Li Xinni not know the most suitable candidate for the new emperor?

Bai Zhi knew that Li Xinni just looked away!

……

Weiyang Palace, inside the Chaohui Hall.

The majestic and magnificent building stands on the earth, resplendent and majestic. The main hall was filled with civil and military officials, and fifteen cabinet officials sat in front, all looking at the sacred bird at the top.

Bai Zhi also looked at them and found that there were many new and young faces among them.

Obviously, during these four years, there has been a certain amount of changes in the court, and it seems that this is also a kind of inheritance.

Bai Zhi's eyes fell on Prime Minister Di Renjie again and found that Prime Minister Di Renjie had also aged a lot. After all, the Prime Minister had to be in charge of the entire Tang Dynasty. Although he did not have to do everything personally, he was under great pressure.

This also caused Prime Minister Di Renjie to age quickly.

Looking back, Bai Zhi said slowly: "Today has reached the ninth year of the Republic of Divine Birds, and we are about to enter the tenth year of the Republic of Divine Birds..."
