The mysterious bird of destiny, the beginning of China

Chapter 303 Agreement
"Tianji Pavilion..."

Hearing this name, Gong Ling pondered for a moment, "Tianji, Tianji, hidden secrets. The book that my sister wants to compile contains precious knowledge of the world and is the secret of heaven and earth. This name is so suitable!"

……

Tianji Pavilion was full of busy sounds, and more people entered the compilation of Yi'an Dadian, which also accelerated the compilation progress a lot.

The Song Dynasty was also undergoing tremendous changes, the most obvious of which was that the former Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun were gradually recovered by the Song Dynasty.

At the same time, the Song Dynasty was also sending troops to the Western Regions, preparing to once again classify the Western Regions as the territory of the Song Dynasty. This would also allow the Song Dynasty to go to the Western Regions and no longer suffer the intrusion of the countries lingering in the Western Regions.

Although the Song Dynasty also continued to use troops externally, it did not gain much territory. Facing the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty, the soldiers of other countries were not like chickens and dogs.

But in general, the Song Dynasty won the most times.

However, at this time, the Song Dynasty's main focus was on the Northern Empire, and the Song Dynasty's influence in the Western Regions and other places was not great.

So let alone restoring the territory of China, it may take a long time.

"Don't you want to experience life for yourself?"

The originally pure white feathers now glowed with a faint blue light, seeming to be turning blue.

"At that time, Divine Bird, please remove the eternal shackles from me..."

In the Tianji Pavilion, looking at the busy crowd, Li Qingzhao returned to his study, and then said to the divine bird hidden in the void.

Li Qingzhao participated in the entire process of Yi'an Ceremony, so he naturally knew when Yi'an Ceremony would be completed and the progress of its completion.

"If that's the case, then I will withdraw the immortality from you!"

"I understand……"

AD 1190, early spring.

At the same time, talented people from all over the world entered Tianji Pavilion, and the people who sorted out ancient books also changed countless times. They either took a fancy to the money given by Li Qingzhao, or they admired Li Qingzhao's ambition and spontaneously came to help. , or maybe you want to leave a name behind you that will last forever!

"It has been removed."

After hearing Li Qingzhao's words, Bai Zhi emerged from the void. In Li Qingzhao's eyes, he saw some changes in the feathers of the divine bird.

Li Qingzhao looked at Bai Zhi seriously.

"When will the Yi'an Ceremony be completed?"

It’s also a better ending.

Is this your life?

Li Qingzhao nodded slightly, with no regrets on his face, and then stood up and looked outside. There was an endless stream of pedestrians on the street, and the shouts could only be heard clearly after opening the window. Li Qingzhao often opened the window for half an hour, feeling The world outside is noisy.

"..."

He thought of the people he had favored, and without exception, they would hate this power of immortality in the end.

But no matter what, it provided a lot of help to Li Qingzhao's compilation of Yi'an Dadian.

Then her tragic fate began. The double mental and physical torture was undoubtedly painful. At this time, Li Qingzhao was indeed very different from the original history.

Li Qingzhao waited quietly for a moment, then looked at Bai Zhi who was standing aside, and asked doubtfully: "Has it been withdrawn?"

"It won't take long, the Shiri Yi'an Ceremony will be completed..."

Time flies, decades fly by, and in this ancient Bianjing city, how many people leave and how many come.

Because Li Qingzhao lived in seclusion and only went back and forth between the mansion and Tianji Pavilion every day, and she deliberately avoided being discovered, it gave people the impression that she had disappeared.

Only a few people know that Li Qingzhao is still alive and still young and beautiful.

Li Qingzhao had a look of determination on his face. The so-called eternal shackles were his power to keep her appearance eternal and immortal.

Bai Zhi pondered for a moment and then asked Li Qingzhao.

Li Qingzhao is also over a hundred years old, but her appearance has not changed at all. She is still the beautiful woman she once was.

Regarding Li Qingzhao's request, Bai Zhi was silent for a moment.

No matter whether they originally desired immortality or not!
Is it bad to live forever?
It is naturally good for those who long for immortality, and they may even be happy with it and never regret it!
But for people who only regard immortality as a means, the ultimate goal is what they want. If the goal they desire is achieved, what will immortality mean to them?
Bai Zhi was already familiar with this.

"Why don't you feel anything?"

After looking outside for a moment, Li Qingzhao turned back to look at the divine bird behind him, and then asked:
"God Bird, you have looked at the changes in dynasties from the pre-Qin period to the present, haven't you changed the final destiny of the dynasty?"

Within the Song Dynasty, the economy of the Song Dynasty became more prosperous because of the war, which in turn made the people of the Song Dynasty richer, and to a certain extent, it also showed the prosperity of the Tang and Han Dynasties.

"This is my life..."

"Just wait for time to pass, time will leave its mark on you."

And Li Qingzhao's old friends also left one by one.

Bai Zhi replied.

Bai Zhi couldn't help but think of the original history. In the original history, Li Qingzhao would marry like thousands of women.

Bai Zhi asked.

"It can take as little as three years, or as long as six years!"

"……No change……"

Bai Zhi was silent for a moment, and then answered.

If you look at it from a certain perspective, the fate of each dynasty has changed, and it has undergone earth-shaking changes from its original history.

But the ultimate fate mentioned by Li Qingzhao is still the replacement of dynasties, and this final fate has not changed.

"Did the divine bird intervene in every dynasty?"

After Li Qingzhao heard the answer from the divine bird, he immediately asked again.

"Intervened..." Whether it was the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, or the later Tang Dynasty, he intervened and changed history to a certain extent, so that each turbulent period would never happen again.

Hearing Bai Zhi's answer, Li Qingzhao showed interest on his face and said, "So what if the divine bird doesn't interfere in history?"

how is it?

It should develop towards the original historical process...

To be honest, Bai Zhi didn't know either.

In the past, he did not interfere with history, but he also saw that history has a certain ability to recover, and some things will happen again.

But at this moment, he did not dare to be so sure. After all, history at this time had undergone earth-shaking changes. If he did not intervene, would history return to its original trajectory?

Li Qingzhao on the side noticed Bai Zhi's silence and knew Bai Zhi's answer.

There was a strange look in Li Qingzhao's eyes. He was silent for a moment, and then looked at Bai Zhi again, with hope shining in his eyes:
"If you, the divine bird, had not intervened in the Song Dynasty, in what direction would the Song Dynasty develop?"

"do not know."

Bai Zhi shook his head.

"In that case, why doesn't the divine bird experiment?"

Li Qingzhao looked outside again. There were noisy pedestrians on the street. There were the busy figures of adults, the leisurely backs of old people, and the carefree laughter of children. Li Qingzhao's voice slowly reached Bai Zhi's ears:

"Throughout history, from the Qin Dynasty to the present, the Chinese emperors seem to have never been trampled by foreigners. Chinese civilization has always been at its peak. The people in the hinterland of China are immersed in the glory of history and seem to have forgotten what hardship is and what hardship is..."

"Only by truly experiencing suffering, and experiencing the baptism of swords and blood, can the spirit of the Chinese nation be truly tempered, and this spirit be integrated into their blood. They can awaken when needed, and they will not be so decadent or depressed. If you sink like this, you won’t be reduced like this..."

Seeing Li Qingzhao's confused and then firm eyes at first, Bai Zhi was filled with emotions.

From Li Qingzhao's words, how could he not understand what Li Qingzhao meant?
Is it just to let yourself go and watch with cold eyes how the Song Dynasty will develop in the future?

Even if foreigners step into this land ruled by the Chinese etiquette state in the future, they cannot interfere and watch quietly how the Chinese people rebuild the Chinese state!

And why did Li Qingzhao have such thoughts?
It's not hard to guess either.

How cowardly was the Song Dynasty before this?
He actually gave a yearly coin to the barbarian country in the north and relied on them, just to survive for a moment, but what happened next?

But they don’t know how to develop themselves and enhance their own strength. Immersed in the glory of nothingness, if there is no help from the divine bird, I am afraid that I will really face the iron cavalry of the alien race!
"But you have to know, if there is really no intervention, how many Chinese people will die tragically in the future?"

"How many Chinese people are floating in the sea of ​​blood? Howling among the withered bones? Dying miserably among swords and guns?"

"People of China, why should we be afraid of this!?"

Bai Zhi looked at Li Qingzhao and couldn't imagine that Li Qingzhao had such thoughts. However, after Bai Zhi thought about it, it was normal to have such thoughts.

It is nothing more than able to inspire the fighting spirit of the Chinese people.

Feeling Li Qingzhao's gaze, Bai Zhi was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly, agreeing with Li Qingzhao's idea.

In Bai Zhi's original plan, he should work with Li Qingzhao to change the fate of the Song Dynasty at this time, and the fate of the Song Dynasty has also changed at this time.

Then the Song Dynasty was maintained strong and prosperous, which could last for hundreds of years. As for whether the Song Dynasty would continue to be strong or decline and perish, it was none of Bai Zhi's business.

But at this time, Li Qingzhao's thoughts were consistent with Bai Zhi's plan to a certain extent.

The destiny of the Song Dynasty has changed. As for whether it will continue to be strong or weak in the future, that is how the Song Dynasty develops.

I only heard Li Qingzhao on the side add: "If it is later, or it is decades, or it is hundreds of years, the Song Dynasty really faces the danger of national subjugation, and is brutally resisted by the people of China, or people of foreign races. Conquest, the divine bird must not interfere!”

"it is good!"

Bai Zhi understood Li Qingzhao's idea, which was nothing more than to destroy without establishing. Li Qingzhao wanted to inspire the fighting spirit of the Chinese people through huge disasters, and bury this fighting spirit deeply in the blood of the Chinese people.

But if this is really the case, I am afraid that in the next few hundred years of the existence of the Song Dynasty, the Chinese people will be a nation full of disasters.

Li Qingzhao on the side saw the divine bird nodding in agreement, and finally a smile appeared on his face. But when he turned his head again and looked outside Tianji Pavilion, listening to the noisy hawking sounds on the streets outside, a trace of unbearability flashed in his eyes.

How could she, who was familiar with history, not know what impact her actions at this time would have on future generations?
In the future, the Chinese people in this part of the world will suffer all kinds of sufferings. Many people will die abnormally in the sufferings, or struggle in pain. People will continue to pray to God to help them. , but disaster will still befall them.

And all of this is because of the agreement he made with the Divine Bird at this time.

……

Time flew by, and three years passed quickly. During these three years, Li Qingzhao still maintained his original rhythm of life, just traveling back and forth between the mansion and Tianji Pavilion.

Of course, perhaps because of Li Qingzhao's simple life, people in the city could often see her, and the talented people who sorted the books in Tianji Pavilion were able to get in close contact with Li Qingzhao.

Recently, they experienced something that shocked them. On Li Qingzhao, who they thought would have eternal beauty and immortality, they actually found traces of time.

They saw a shallow wrinkle begin to appear on Li Qingzhao's face, there was also an inconspicuous white hair in his hair, and his energy seemed to be less than before.

After all, Li Qingzhao, who once sat on the top floor of Tianji Pavilion, was able to work with all of them until late at night, and she did not leave until everyone left.

But now, they saw Li Qingzhao looking tired many times.

Of course, this is only true among the people closest to him. For example, the talented people who organize the books in Tianji Pavilion can see this.

But for some reason, this strangeness slowly spread to Bianjing City, and then became known to more people.

"The immortal female general actually shows signs of aging. Is she no longer favored by the divine bird?"

"According to records in many ancient books, there are also people who were favored by the divine bird in history. They were able to live forever at first, but in the end they all aged and died!"

"But those who were favored by the divine bird in history, lived forever and then died of old age, were not abandoned by the divine bird. It seems that they actively abandoned their immortality and voluntarily slowly aged and died..."

"Is it possible that female general Li Qingzhao is like this too?!"

"Why is the female general so inconceivable that she can throw away a blessing such as immortality that is unavailable to mortals!?"

"..."

The strangeness on Li Qingzhao's body aroused discussions among the people in the city, and also aroused the envy and confusion of the dignitaries in the city.

Immortality is elusive for them. They have glory and wealth, but they cannot enjoy it for a long time. How painful is this?

They envied Li Qingzhao all the time, but at this time, Li Qingzhao also showed signs of aging, and it was even possible that she had abandoned immortality herself!
