Yipin Tang

Chapter 54 A Dream of a Thousand Years

Gewuyuan was gradually getting on the right track, Li Er did not lie, and he really sent Hou Junji to lead the army to attack the Gaochang Jingqi who went south to plunder.

Cheng Chuliang was in a good mood when he heard the news, and the only regret he felt was that he was not able to go to battle in person.

"Zixin, His Majesty's decision this time is really satisfying!"

Wang Xiang was lying on the reclining chair with the snacks from Dengxianlou in his mouth. Hearing Cheng Chuliang's words, he turned over and said angrily, "You are very happy, but I am miserable."

"Why is that?" Cheng Chuliang followed Wang Xiang's example and lay down on the deck chair on the other side, picked up a piece of snack and threw it into his mouth.

"Why? Don't you know that after the autumn harvest, I will go to Gaochang as an envoy?"

The matter of going to Gaochang has been bothering Wang Xiang, he is quite satisfied with his current life, although he has to be beaten and exploited by Li Er from time to time, but overall he is quite comfortable.

With Li Chunfeng in Gewuyuan, there is almost nothing to do with him, and it has been a long time since I went to Sinong Temple. The sun is getting warmer day by day, and I can even feel a faint heat. The vitality of potatoes is not ordinary tenacious, and they have survived the severe cold. There is nothing to worry about.

The business of Dengxianlou is also getting better every day. Degui counts the money until midnight every night when he settles the income of the restaurant, but he is not tired at all.

Laifu has become a veritable brewing expert. There are more than ten different classifications of wine after first tasting. The fire shochu wine is poured after three cups of fire, the mellow and delicate imperial concubine wine has a unique fruity aroma and bright color. Fruit wine... The scale of Yipin Winery has expanded several times, but the supply is still in short supply. The entrance of the winery is full of horse-drawn carriages waiting to pull wine every day, and many of them are restaurant owners who come here from other places.

Everything is developing in the direction Wang Xiang expects, but the matter of going to Gaochang as an envoy makes him unable to lift his spirits.

Hearing Wang Xiang's complaint, Cheng Chuliang shook his head and said, "It's not you who told His Majesty not to go to war. If you want me to tell you, you should follow my old man's method and beat his mother's Gaochang and his mother's Turks."

"Fight, fight, fight, it's useless to talk about it now, and besides, you think it's a good thing to fight? Have you forgotten who almost died and returned to Chang'an last time?"

Hearing the words, Cheng Chuliang sat up straight with a rare serious expression on his face, stared at Wang Xiang for a long time, and sighed.

"Zixin, I found that you have changed a lot. Although you were not as capable as you are now, you used to be as passionate as me and not afraid of death. You could fight for an upright official, but today..."

Seeing Cheng Chuliang gasping for breath, Wang Xiang said lightly, "Do you think I've become greedy for life and afraid of death now?"

Cheng Chuliang's silence obviously acquiesced to Wang Xiang's words.

"Maybe I have really changed." Wang Xiang looked up at the sky with a lonely expression.

"you……"

"I'm also someone who died once." Wang Xiang suddenly wanted to find someone to talk about.

Wang Xiang didn't tell Cheng Chuliang that his soul came from thousands of years later, that was too unbelievable, so he changed to a relatively easier-to-accept statement.

"Do you still remember when I was knocked out in Jinguang Lake? At that time, I really thought I was dead. I had a long, long dream."

Cheng Chuliang was attracted by Wang Xiang's words and asked curiously: "How long?"

Wang Xiang picked up a piece of soft and delicious osmanthus cake from the plate on the low table next to it and took a bite: "Longer than a lifetime."

Seeing Cheng Chuliang's mouth wide open in surprise, Wang Xiang smiled and said, "Are you wondering why I, who was always ignorant, suddenly became good at composing poetry and brewing wine?"

Cheng Chuliang nodded when he heard the words. In fact, he had this question for a long time, not just poetry and wine making. After that day, Wang Xiang had too many things to make him feel puzzled, but Wang Xiang didn't say anything and he didn't ask too much. Hearing Wang Xiang take the initiative to mention it now is naturally extremely curious.

"Actually, I learned these things in my dreams. Maybe you don't believe me. I had a dream thousands of years ago and saw the world thousands of years later."

"Thousands of years! How many lifetimes would that take!"

Wang Xiang smiled and said: "Do you know that in the dream, the world was destroyed, and I died, so I came back to life in Datang."

Cheng Chuliang tilted his head. He didn't know what Wang Xiang meant, and asked curiously, "What will the world look like in a thousand years?"

"The world in a thousand years..." A trace of nostalgia floated on Wang Xiang's face.

Wang Xiang and Cheng Chuliang were just lying on the reclining chairs, one was slowly telling a story that sounded extremely bizarre, the other was listening with gusto, but didn't realize when Li Zhi also squatted quietly behind and listened engrossed.

"Wang Jiancheng, are what you said true?"

Hearing Li Zhi's question, Wang Xiang knew that there was another person behind him. He didn't panic or lose his mind, but smiled lightly and said, "Are you done with the experiment?"

Li Zhi shook his head: "No, the starling and the tenth brother are messing around, I'll come over and have a rest, is the dream you just said real?" He was full of curiosity about the world thousands of years later in the dream Wang Xiang told about.

"Since it's a dream, who can tell if it's true or not?"

"But what you taught us is true!" Li Zhi is indeed much smarter than the average nine-year-old child. Even Chen Daqi has a very high talent in arithmetic, but in other respects he is as ordinary as five or six years old. Li Zhi is not much different from other children. As long as he is not influenced by the little lolita, his thinking is no worse than that of ordinary adults. Cheng Chuliang may not be as good as him.

Wang Xiang smiled and said nothing, put the last piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake in his mouth, got up and left the reclining chair, he was going to the backyard to see how the glass was being fired.

Li Zhi is a curious baby. He didn't get the answer he wanted from Wang Xiang, so he gave the question to the resourceful eldest grandson queen.

The idea of ​​a dream for a thousand years is indeed a bit appalling, even more absurd than a businessman in the Western Regions, but when you think about it carefully, it seems that only this can explain the huge changes in Tong Wangxiang, as well as those strange knowledge.

In the world in Wang Xiang's dream, what runs on the ground is not a carriage but a car, and what flies in the sky is an airplane that can carry people...

Li Er was more concerned about another thing Li Zhi mentioned.

"He really mentioned something that can destroy a city in an instant?"

Facing Li Er's question, Li Zhi scratched his head and replied: "When Prince Cheng mentioned the war, Wang Jiancheng said that in the dream, the world after a thousand years rarely has wars, because once wars happen, there will be countless cities in an instant. devastated and millions of people lost their lives."

Li Er hurriedly said, "Did he mention what it was?"

Empress Changsun's complexion changed and she whispered: "Erlang, you are..."

"If the Great Tang has this thing, the Turks, Goryeo, and Tubo, as long as the Great Tang's soldiers are pointed at, they will all be ruled by the Great Tang!" On the eve of the change, the flames in his eyes were not so hot.
