Da Qin: Self-destruction and time travel, I will extend my life for Qin for a thousand years

Chapter 168 With Wu Mei’s death, Great Qin suffered its third natural disaster!

"Wu Mei's life is undoubtedly a success, but it is also a complete failure."

"For power, she not only killed her own daughter with her own hands."

"Even my own sons were tortured to the point of insanity."

"If Empress Lu's ruthlessness is [-]%, then Wu Mei's ruthlessness is [-]%, almost completely inhumane."

"After all, no matter how cruel Queen Lu was, she would never go so far as to kill her own son. Although Queen Lu's love for Liu Ying was morbid, it was still a strong maternal love."

"But Wu Mei, for her, all her children are just stepping stones for her to ascend to the throne of supreme power."

"No one knows whether Wu Mei was like this from the beginning, or whether she was corrupted by power and gradually transformed into that."

"But one thing is undeniable, that is, she relied on these means to become the only female emperor in Chinese history and founded the short-lived but glorious dynasty of Wuzhou."

"The imperial examination was launched to recruit scholars, although Wu Mei's purpose was to cultivate his own power so that he could compete with the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes."

"But it is true that objectively, it gave talented people in the world an opportunity to serve as officials in the court, and it abruptly tore a hole in the family's power network."

Although Cui Yuan had a bad impression of Wu Mei, he did not deny her contribution to China.

If it weren't for her, Qiwang of the fifth surname would not know how long he would have to lie on top of the common people, and the poor family would not know when they would have the opportunity to enter the court again.

After hearing this, Ying Zheng admired Wu Mei very much: "Although I despise her methods, as a woman who can reach such a step, she truly deserves to be the first empress of China."

However, the attitudes of Ying Zheng and Cui Yuan do not represent the attitudes of Li Shimin and Li Zhi.

The two of them have been gritting their teeth in silence since Cui Yuan was able to tell Wu Mei's last story.

When Cui Yuan finally finished speaking, the father and son stood up almost at the same time.

"Father! I dare to ask you to grant me Wu Mei to death!"

Li Zhi's eyes turned red and he bent down to plead with Li Shimin.

At this moment, he no longer had the slightest bit of infatuation for Wu Mei, only the coldness and nausea that penetrated into his bones!

Although Cui Yuan didn't say it clearly, Li Zhi still understood.

In the eyes of a woman like Wu Mei, I am afraid that she is not the person she likes from the beginning to the end.

This kind of madman who refuses to let go of her own daughter and son, she cannot be sincere in her kindness to herself, but she just wants to use herself to reach the pinnacle of power step by step!
ridiculous!

I actually thought Wu Mei really liked me before!

It turns out that from beginning to end, I was just a joke.

"If the father is worried that he cannot explain it to the Wu family, he can also let his son do it himself!"

Li Zhi is murderous and has no trace of gentleness and elegance. This famous king in the history of the Tang Dynasty is showing off his fangs!
Li Shimin shook his head solemnly: "You don't need to come forward. You are the new emperor who is about to ascend the throne. You cannot let yourself be stained with blood easily for the first time."

"The left and right are just killing one person. Emperor Qin has been fighting for decades, and in his life he has personally killed as many as eight hundred people, if not a thousand!"

"I can still kill a woman!"

Originally, he wanted to save Wu Mei's life to avoid chilling the Wu family's heart, but now it seems that it is completely impossible.

If you don't like the heart of the Wu family, you have to cold your own heart!

Although Wu Mei is innocent now, she has taken the first dangerous step - seducing Li Zhi!
A glimmer of cold light flashed in the eyes of both father and son, and they were full of murderous intent.

Soon he called the palace man and asked him to go down and prepare poisonous wine for Wu Mei.

Although Cui Yuan mentioned a lot of Wu Mei's achievements later, in the face of usurping the country, any achievements will be turned into ashes!
And without Wu Mei, Li Zhi could have accomplished those feats independently.

Cui Yuan watched, letting the sunset fall, a generation of empress was about to die quietly, and he had no intention of stopping it.

Not to mention that this is just a parallel world, just say that if he wants to stop it, he must have a reason.

It is true that Wu Mei was the first female emperor in history, but at the same time, she also caused unprecedented harm to the Tang Dynasty.

Even after her death, Princess Taiping wanted to replicate her miracle and become the empress.

As for her third son, Li Xian, even though he was later supported as emperor, he could not get out of her shadow throughout his life and spent his life in confusion.

The only real shortcoming may be that after Wu Mei's death, Li Xian will not be born, Li Longji will not appear, and the Tang Dynasty will lose a Tang Xuanzong from now on.

But to be honest, there is no way around this. After all, I have already talked about the future.

Even if Li Shimin and Li Zhi ignore their past grievances and don't kill Wu Mei, will Li Zhi continue to love Wu Mei without thinking and continue to cross the ethical bottom line with her?

Unless Li Zhi is a fool, no matter whether Wu Mei survives or not, there is no possibility for him and Wu Mei. Li Longji's disappearance is completely inevitable.

Ying Zheng felt a little regretful.

"It's a pity that I still want to see her, but it seems I have no chance now."

As the first emperor to unify China, he naturally felt close to Wu Zetian, the first female emperor in history.

I originally thought that when I came to Datang this time, I would have a chance to meet him, but I didn't expect that I would miss it like this.

Cui Yuan smiled and said: "Your Majesty Zulong, don't feel bad. Although she is said to be a female emperor, it is just a gender change, nothing special."

"It makes no difference whether you look or not."

"Yes." Ying Zheng nodded.

That's it, inside the Tai Chi Hall.

Ying Zheng, Cui Yuan, Ying Yinman, Li Shimin and Li Zhi were all waiting silently.

Half an hour later, the palace servant who had just gone to prepare the poisoned wine came back with a bloody white cloth, trembling and pale.

"Whoo~"

Li Shimin breathed a long sigh of relief and looked at Li Zhi. The eyes of both father and son showed deep joy.

The white cloth with blood represents Wu Mei's death.

This woman who would bring countless sufferings to the Tang Dynasty in the future finally closed her eyes!
"Cui Shenxian, can you give me a little more time?"

"After I fake my death and complete the orphan care, I will leave with you."

Li Shimin relaxed and had no intention of staying in Datang.

The person he was most worried about in Datang was Li Zhi. Now with Cui Yuan's spoilers, he has removed the biggest obstacle to Li Zhi's future.

Except for Tuogu, there is no point in continuing to stay.

Cui Yuan had no objection and said with a smile: "His Majesty Li Er, it's easy. It only takes a few days. I can also go shopping in Datang with my wife."

Ying Zheng also nodded, indicating that he had no objection.

"That's good." Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief, feeling increasingly grateful to Cui Yuan and Ying Zheng.

In the next few days, the entire Imperial Palace of the Tang Dynasty was enveloped in a solemn atmosphere.

The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, suddenly fell ill and was in critical condition. He even fainted when he went to court.

The entire court was in chaos, and the important officials of the Tang Dynasty were waiting outside the palace. They went in with worried faces from time to time, and then came out with sad faces soon after.

At this moment, even the ordinary people in Chang'an City felt a suffocating atmosphere that filled the city with a storm approaching!
In contrast, Cui Yuan, Ying Zheng and Ying Yinman strolled leisurely and experienced the customs and customs of the Tang Dynasty.

Because countries from all over the world have come to worship for a long time, there are many unique delicacies and animals on the streets of Chang'an City. Girls will be amazed every time they encounter them.

They even took the time to go see Wu Mei's funeral.

Because Wu Mei was just a talented person at this time, her funeral was also very simple, so the three of them easily got in and sent off the legendary queen in person.

"Cui Yuan, what do you think the Tang Dynasty would be like without Wu Mei?"

A question suddenly arose in Ying Zheng's mind.

Cui Yuan shook his head and said he didn't know.In fact, he had some guesses that a new woman would appear to take Wu Mei's place and work with Li Zhi to suppress the five surnames and Qi Wang.

But after all, this has not happened yet, and he is not sure.

Cui Yuan, Ying Zheng and Ying Yinman looked at each other for a long time. They didn't leave quietly until Wu Mei's coffin was completely buried in the ground.

A few days later, Li Shimin died, and the Prince of the Tang Dynasty succeeded to the throne as the new Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

On that day, the entire city of Chang'an was decorated with lanterns and streamers to celebrate the birth of the new emperor.

However, the emperor Li Zhi was not happy. Instead, he often looked in the direction of the palace. Even after he became the emperor, he was often absent-minded.

Because there, his father was slowly passing away in another way.

"Your Majesty Li Er, do you need to stay for a few more days?"

"no need."

Li Shimin withdrew his gaze and followed everyone through the portal.

As the fluctuations in the portal disappeared, Li Shimin completely disappeared in this time and space.

……

Da Qin, five days later.

After Cui Yuan completed measuring another section of the Yellow River embankment, he returned to the convoy leisurely, preparing to open the portal to the Ming Dynasty.

He has tried it these days, but there are some limitations in the portal system that prevent him from being able to teleport to the Qing Dynasty.

But it doesn't matter, even if it can only go to Daming.

You can also obtain the manufacturing methods of muskets and Hongyi cannons from the Ming Dynasty, improve the iron-making process, and prepare for the birth of the steam engine.

By then, Da Qin's Guo Zuo will definitely improve dramatically!

Cui Yuan had already made a perfect plan in his heart.

……

However, as soon as he entered the motorcade, Cui Yuan noticed something was obviously wrong.

Because besides Ying Zheng, Li Shimin, who was hiding his identity, also had Dun Ruo and a tall and thin man wearing a mysterious robe.

And everyone's face showed the same solemn expression.

"Seems like they're discussing things."

'But what is it, so serious! '

Cui Yuan just had doubts in his heart. Before he could walk over, Ying Zheng saw his arrival through the gap.

So he pressed his hands down to signal everyone to quiet down.

"Prince Qin, you are here just in time, come here quickly."

"it is good!"

Cui Yuan suppressed his confusion and walked over.

Seeing the young man approaching, the tall and thin man had a strange look in his eyes and stared at him.

"Who is this?"

Cui Yuan frowned, feeling that this person was very rude and kept staring at him.

"This is Yin Gaofeng from All Sky Star Station."

Ying Zheng introduced: "That's the person who told us two years ago that a cold disaster was about to occur in the Qin Dynasty."

"It turns out to be Master Yin!"

Cui Yuan understood, his dissatisfaction dissipated, and he immediately understood Yin Gaofeng's strange look.

It is said that the master of Yin Tai is an astronomer leader among hundreds of schools of thought. He has been immersed in the stars and constellations since he was a child and has a high interest in all extraordinary things.

In modern terms, this is an academic master who is not good at communicating.

"It's really disrespectful. If Master Yin hadn't reminded me, I'm afraid the whole country would be in ruins now."

Such people may have very low emotional intelligence, but their IQ is definitely higher than ordinary people.

"Forehead……"

Yin Gaofeng was stunned and nodded, but did not reply. He was still looking straight at Cui Yuan.

Cui Yuan didn't pay attention. If nothing else happened, Master Yin was probably taking a serious note of himself in his heart.

He looked at Ying Zheng and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, is there something wrong somewhere in Da Qin?"

Since Yin Gaofeng has appeared, it means that Quantianxingtai has discovered something extraordinary.

Coupled with the role of the title of a historical creator who is on the verge of life and death, if nothing else, something should have happened.

"Come and sit down."

Ying Zheng pulled the cushion next to him.

After Cui Yuan was done, he smiled bitterly and said, "Sure enough, nothing can satisfy you. You are right."

"Something has indeed happened in Da Qin, and it is an extremely serious matter."

After speaking, Li Shimin looked at Dunruo: "Dunruo, Master Yin is not good at words, so I'll leave it to you to explain in detail."

Dun weakly nodded, took out a memorial and handed it to Cui Yuan.

At the same time, he said in a solemn tone: "Your Highness, King Qin, please see this memorial that was just sent from Handan County three days ago."

"Our Great Qin...has experienced a locust plague that is rare in a century!"

Locust plague? ? ?

Hearing this, Cui Yuan's expression suddenly became serious.

I originally thought it was another cold disaster, flooding of the Yellow River, or something like that, but I didn’t expect this natural disaster to be a locust plague!

Cui Yuan carefully checked the memorial and finally figured out what happened.

At this moment, an unprecedented locust plague is breaking out in Handan, and it is more serious than any locust plague recorded in history.

According to the Sheriff of Handan County, wherever the locusts passed, not a single blade of grass grew, and even many houses were damaged.

Not a single bit of farmland was left, and all the crops were destroyed.

And this disaster has a tendency to spread to Dongjun, Julu County, Hengshan County and Hanoi County!
If left unchecked, they will become the second, third... Handan is just a matter of time!

Moreover, when this memorial was issued, the locust plague was already moving westward.

Seeing this, Cui Yuan frowned.

If the description by the governor of Handan is not exaggerated, then this locust plague is indeed unprecedented in scale and can be said to be rare in a century.

We must know that locust plague is a biological disaster. Once it occurs, its destructive power is far greater than cold disasters and floods.

Because there is still time for the water to recede, and there is still time for the cold to get warmer.

However, the locust plague is different. They will not stop until they have eaten all the food.

If they are allowed to move westward, even if they are unable to enter the pass, just getting close to the Yellow River and killing the rubber tree seeds they planted before, they can still cause a fatal blow to the development of Da Qin!

This trick of dog system fee is really cruel!
