Feng Nitianjiao: Three Lives Three Worlds Song in the Cloud

Chapter 49 The vicissitudes of a century [1]

As Ning Xuanwu's master, Right Minister Ling Shichen is an important figure in the Great Yan Empire.If you want to talk about Ling Xiang, you have to mention his long-renowned family and the endless emergence of outstanding figures in the past dynasties.

The ancestor of the Ling family was originally not the Ling surname, the specific surname is no longer available, and the records of the Ling family genealogy only start from the generation that changed the surname.

The true ancestor of the Ling family can be traced back to the general of Zhenguo during the reign of Emperor Aotian 600 years ago. Legend has it that his surname is Ling.

Although Yan Aotian is a well-known and prosperous Mingjun in the history of the Great Yan Empire, during his reign, the empire was powerful and mighty everywhere.However, the two most famous figures in the history of Dayan were not the emperor, but the Queen Tianwu of Emperor Aotian, and Ling Zhe, the general of Zhenguo.

Empress Tianwu's name is Yingxuewu. From the portrait painted for her by Yan Zhenbo, the son of Emperor Aotian and the successor Emperor Yan Zhenbo, it can be seen that her celestial beauty is unparalleled, and she is the most beautiful woman in the history of Dayan. The long-lived empress dowager, from being in the middle palace to being the empress dowager, lasted for 60 years. It was because of her assistance that Yan Aotian, Yan Zhenbo and his sons laid a solid foundation for the hegemony of the Great Yan Empire .

But Empress Tianwu was originally a concubine, and Yan Zhenbo was born to Yan Aotian's first empress. After the empress died of illness, Yingxuewu was canonized as empress.Empress Tianwu has no children all her life, and she treats Yan Zhenbo as her own child, nurturing and teaching Yan Zhenbo carefully, and her virtuousness and virtue can be regarded as a model for future generations.

As for General Zhen Guo, no one knew his name at first, only that he won the position of general with his invincible bravery in the national examination.Since then, in the past 60 years, he has expanded the territory of the Dayan Empire and made countless illustrious military exploits.

Just like Empress Tianwu, the general has no heirs in his life, just because he has never married a wife and took concubines, and has always been alone.

These two people who had nothing to do with each other in the first place, but because of the dying words of Empress Tianwu, revealed an eternal swan song that made the world sigh.

Empress Tianwu is only for Empress Aotian, the biological mother of the prince Yan Zhenbo, a woman named Liuyun Zimo, who became a queen because of her entrustment, but she was not Yan Aotian's woman throughout her life, but Persisting in forbearance for 60 years, she kept chastity for the man she loved the most until she died.

It was just before his death that General Zhen Guo showed his original appearance, and people knew that he was the love of Empress Tianwu all her life.

The people at that time, on the night of the Empress Dowager's death, heard lightning and thunder in the night sky, golden dragons circling, and silver phoenix singing sadly, soaring straight into the sky.

In order to thank the queen mother for her painstaking efforts over the years, the emperor Yan Zhenbo ordered the historian to write a history book for the queen mother, but because of a palace fire 100 years later, the whereabouts of the book has disappeared.Out of the common people's love for the Queen Mother, it has been passed down orally to this day, and it has gradually evolved into an unofficial history. It is even more affectionately named "The Cat Demon's Favorite Concubine" and circulated among the folk alleys.

As for the general, according to the people, he turned into a golden dragon and disappeared in the court hall.Only then did Emperor Yan Zhenbo know that he was from an ancient fairy family. Out of admiration for the gods, he named his general's mansion Tianlong Pavilion, and chose the most virtuous civil servants in the court to live in, and bestowed the surname "Ling" on it. As the descendants of Ling Zhe, the descendants of the Ling family lived in the Tianlong Pavilion left by the general for generations.
