I am the Tao of bad people

A little gun appeared in the east.
Wu and Chu still had emperors.

The guest outside the door will not come for long.
The universe is recreated at Jiao Kang.

The Records of the Tang Dynasty - The Records of Emperor Wuzong of Tang records:
In the spring of the fourth year of Emperor Xian's reign, General Gao Siji led his troops to attack Wu. They crossed the river in March, defeated the army in April, captured the city in May, and the victory report was sent to Luoyang in June.

The traitor Xu Zhigao knew that his escape was over, so he burned himself in the palace, leaving his body mutilated.

From then on, after several years of unrest in the Wu Kingdom, the country returned to the orthodox way and brought peace to the world.

In the same year, in the autumn of the fourth year of Emperor Xian, Gao Siji led his troops to continue southward to attack Qian Liu in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Qian Liu had tens of thousands of troops. The people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions were prosperous and the land was rich. Qian Liu was also quite capable and ambitious. He was unwilling to surrender, so he asked the State of Chu for help.

However, at this time, the political situation in Chu State was in turmoil, the government orders were chaotic, and no decision could be made. The opportunity for rescue was missed, and the messengers were constantly killed by bad people, resulting in Qian Liu having no reinforcements. In the battle near Ling on the Yangtze River, the Zhejiang Navy was completely destroyed.

As frontier cities were successively lost, Qian Liu knew that he was powerless to save the situation, so he led his family confidants to sail out from Suzhou and Hangzhou, took the opportunity to cross the sea to the south, and chose to go far to the southeast. From then on, he was in the vast ocean and there was no news from him again.

As winter approached, people in southern provinces were short of food due to the war. Wuzong, then Prince of Jin, went to the south of the Yangtze River to comfort the people. After the unrest gradually subsided, Wuzong's reputation became prominent.

The following year, the Tang Dynasty rested and recuperated, the government maintained peace and the people were safe, there was no war, and Empress Song of Emperor Wuzong gave birth to another son.

Spring of the sixth year of Emperor Xian.

The civil strife in Chu State gradually subsided, but the internal affairs of the Tang Dynasty also gradually improved. Wuzong immediately issued an order, ordering Raojiang Youchuan to lead the Miao army down the river from Bashu, Gao Siji to lead a detachment up the river from eastern Zhejiang, and the general Zhou Dewei to lead the main force of nearly 200,000 to attack Chu head-on.

In the same year, the war lasted for nearly half a year. The Tang Dynasty attacked from three directions, and the Chu State's defense was caught off guard and was defeated. Even though the Chu territory was difficult to conquer, it was swallowed up by the Tang Dynasty within a few months.

The three armies then joined together in Chu State and continued to move south, attacking Liu Yin in Lingnan with the momentum of unifying the world. Liu Yin was shocked when he heard this and wrote a letter to beg for surrender.

Wuzong agreed, and from then on, the Tang Dynasty, which had been divided for nearly fifty years and separated from the Western Regions for more than one hundred years, was finally reunited.

Spring of the seventh year of Emperor Xian.

Luoyang.

In a palace, Shen Feng personally held a book and taught a group of little kids below him, including Shen Feng and Song Yunji's eldest son Li Sheng, Chi Meng's daughter, and Xuan Jingtian's son.

These children have reached the age to go to school, but Song Yunji's youngest son Shen Que is still breastfeeding and is not within the scope of training.

Education should start from childhood.

Shen Feng took on the responsibility without hesitation. Even if he was busy with state affairs, he would take some time out every day to cultivate these first generation flowers of the Tang Dynasty.

Among these naughty kids, the most important one is Chi Meng's daughter Shen He, who was raised a little crooked by Shen Feng.

He never treated his daughters as daughters at all and raised them all as boys.

But this daughter is also very hardworking. Even at a young age, Shen Feng has already taught her a lot in her way of thinking.

In the future, she will most likely be the King of Yunnan.

Shen Feng always treats everyone equally and does not favor boys over girls.

A girl who can pick up a knife and go into battle may also be a gentleman.

It’s just that Chi Meng feels a little sad when he sees this.

But Shen Feng thought further.

Those countries in Southeast Asia and India can also be considered as the fiefdom of the King of Yunnan.

Maybe one day, I will see the runaway Qian Liu again on the beach.

It's not really a case of discussing heroes over wine, but it does feel a bit like a stranger in a foreign land.

The morning class is over.

Shen Feng went to the court again for a lunch meeting.

A diligent and capable ruler will hold many court meetings.

During the Hongwu era of Zhu Yuanzhang, it was common to hold court meetings three times a day.

And every time the court meeting started, Li Xingyun, as the emperor, would come over as a pendent.

But he was not dissatisfied at all.

During his years as a puppet, Li Xingyun witnessed with his own eyes that the Tang Dynasty was gradually getting better and people were becoming happier.

Just like the question he asked Shen Feng at the beginning: You will make the world a harmonious place, right? Shen Feng did not answer him at the beginning, but Shen Feng used facts to let him see the most satisfactory answer.

During the court meeting, the country's political affairs were handled in an orderly manner. After another court meeting ended, according to common sense, Li Xingyun, as the emperor, should say a symbolic word of leaving the court at this time.

But this time, when all the civil and military officials in the court looked at Li Xingyun, he was not so decisive.

"I have something to say."

Li Xingyun, who had been silent for several years, finally said something different after the world was unified.

Shen Feng looked at him with a little surprise, because Li Xingyun never talked much in the past.

But he still gave face to them because of the peaceful coexistence over the past few years.

"Your Majesty, please speak."

Li Xingyun stood up from the dragon chair. His face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "I am incompetent and uneducated, and I am not up to the task. For many years, I have been of no benefit to the country. The Tang Dynasty has had many mediocre rulers throughout the ages. I will never let the Tang Dynasty be destroyed in my hands. Fortunately, the Tang Dynasty has given birth to the King of Jin, who is both wise and brave and has pacified the world. I have no merit to be rewarded, and I am ashamed of myself. I am willing to give up my throne to help my Tang Dynasty become the hero of the world!"

After saying this, Li Xingyun looked at Shen Feng with a smile. He had been brewing these words for several years, but when Li Xingyun actually said them, he only felt relieved in his heart.

When this relaxed feeling came up, Li Xingyun even followed his own heart.

He was clearly wearing the dragon robe of the supreme ruler, but he slowly knelt down in front of Shen Feng.

"Please, King Jin, ascend the throne!!"

All the civil and military officials in the court were in an uproar!

Shen Feng was stunned where he stood.

Once upon a time, he grabbed Li Xingyun's hair and asked the emperor to ascend the throne.

Shen Feng did think so, but this was too sudden.
In the court, where King Qi was standing, Song Yunji's eyes flashed. She walked out first, knelt on both knees in front of Shen Feng, and shouted in a deep voice: "Please let King Jin ascend the throne!!"

This is subjective initiative.

Song Yunji will never let go of this golden opportunity!

After several years of management, all the people in the court are Shen Feng’s confidants.

The future queen is kneeling here, how can we younger brothers disobey?
Gao Siji, Zhou Dewei, You Chuan, Chi Li and so on, they led all the ministers in the court and stepped forward together, kneeling directly in front of Shen Feng.

"Please invite King Jin to ascend the throne!!!"

The people cheered and begged him to ascend the throne!
"absurd!"

Shen Feng shouted coldly, suppressing all the sounds: "This is ridiculous!"

"The emperor is above us, how can he kneel before his subjects? Humph!"

Shen Feng shouted angrily and left.

Without the real leader in the court, the play naturally cannot go on.

"This"

All the civil and military officials in the court gathered around Song Yunji tacitly, hoping to get some hints from her.

But Song Yunji was of course also confused about what Shen Feng didn't know, so she just stared at Li Xingyun silently.

As soon as you saw this situation, you realized that something was not right.
Li Xingyun was surrounded by people staring at him, but he smiled calmly and said, "Don't panic, everyone. Abdication is like practicing medicine to treat an illness. The medicine I used may be too strong. After all, he has declined three times. If he comes a few more times, the illness will be cured."

"Please cooperate with me."

"It's natural, natural."

All the civil and military officials in the court tacitly promised and agreed to the emperor's request.

but
The emperor asked his ministers to cooperate with him and give up their throne to others. While all the court officials agreed readily, they couldn't help but feel a little absurd.

Song Yunji also understood the whole story, and her impression of Li Xingyun instantly improved a lot. She was still brooding over Li Xingyun's escape that year.

But this way, things become easier.

Let’s turn the page on what happened in the past. (End of this chapter)
