Datang: at the Beginning, Eat Fruit

Chapter 242

　　With Qian Yong's help, several of the largest local businessmen took the lead and brought hundreds of Silla women.

　　Just like choosing a concubine, there are rows of humbling battlefields in front of Li Er and the others.

　　Because of the cold weather, they only wore a thin linen cloth, so they curled up and shivered.

　　This year's winter is much colder than in previous years, so many people in Silla have no food and clothing, so they have to sell their sons and daughters.

　　Although they were uneven in appearance, they were quickly divided up by the officials.I always thought it was a good deal to buy a hard-working maid for home.

　　You must know that the servants in their family have to pay hundreds of wages a month.

　　The three most beautiful were bought by Li Er, obviously wanting to experience the taste of Silla women.

　　Empress Changsun on the side can't control Li Er, I hope she doesn't indulge in it.

　　Qian Yong will continue to drive to Baekje on the east side of Silla, and finally continue north to Goguryeo!

　　"Well, it's almost time to go back after four or five months. There are less than thirty days until the New Year." Lu Xiu said solemnly.

　　"Master Lu, we are not in a hurry. Although Goguryeo is [-] miles away from Yangzhou, we have a power cabin and it only takes three or four days to go back." Qian Yong said.

　　"Hehe, when you return to Yangzhou, I will give each of you a reward of [-] yuan. As for Qian Yong, I will give you an additional tortoise fruit." Lu Xiu smiled.

　　"Thank you, Master Lu." The twenty or so sailors on the boat all cheered.Including Qian Yong, is also full of excitement.

　　"No way. Yangzhou City is only [-] miles away from Goguryeo." Li Er was very surprised.

　　"Yes, Your Majesty, I have drawn the specific chart. Would you like to take a look at it?" Qian Yong nodded.

　　"Qian Yong, show me." Li Er and Li Jing were both interested.

　　Qian Yong took out the chart, and Li Er and the others discovered that Goguryeo and Yangzhou had only been together for more than a thousand miles.Even if it is Jeju, it is only [-] miles away from Goguryeo.

　　The former Sui Yang Emperor's three northern expeditions to Koguryo all ended in failure.

　　The main reason is due to the long distance, bitter cold in the north, and insufficient supplies.

　　Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty mobilized millions of men and horses to go to Goguryeo, which is thousands of miles away. He had to recruit civilians to transport food and grass to solve the army's food salaries. This alone cost a lot of manpower and material resources.

　　"If I had known that Jeju was only a few hundred miles away from Goguryeo, if the Northern Expedition of the Sui Dynasty crossed the sea to attack Goguryeo by boat, the outcome might have been different." Li Er sighed.

　　"Yes, crossing the sea is definitely a way to attack Goguryeo." Li Jing nodded.

　　Li Er's face was full of anticipation. When the Tang navy masters developed into a large scale, he might be able to plan to complete the feat that Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty failed to accomplish, and continue the crusade against Goguryeo.

　　…………

　　Hundreds of Silla maids were divided up, and on the first day, all the officials were immersed in the gentle village of Silla women.

　　Lu Xiu smiled, the Silla women are unique, but if the fleet arrives in Persia and sees the blond Persian cat, I'm sure they will widen their eyes.

　　The next day, Li Er and the others finished the morning court and finally issued two imperial decrees.The first imperial decree, pardoning and conferring Lu Xiu as King Anping of the Tang Dynasty, is also the first king of the Tang Dynasty with a different surname...  

　　The fief is north of Hexi, with tens of millions of acres of grassland.Although remote, the area is large enough.

　　The name Anping has two main meanings.First, most of the kings will choose their birthplace as their name.

　　For example, Li Xiaogong was from Hejian, so he was granted the title of Hejian County King.

　　Second, what I hope for by taking this name is to bless the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and all generations and enjoy peace forever.

　　As for the second imperial decree, Lu Xiu, the king of Anping, was appointed as the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty.

　　As soon as the imperial decree was issued, it caused an uproar in Chang'an City.

　　The last time Lu Xiu married two princesses, it was such a big news that almost everyone in Chang'an knew Lu Xiu.

　　The rumors about Lu Xiu have become more and more popular among the people, so they are praised by countless people as the existence of immortal masters, saying that they have the means of immortals.

　　In particular, the people of Anping County, or the servants of the hundred officials, experienced the leap from Chang'an to Mingyu Island, and their hearts were full of awe for Lu Xiu.

　　He was able to marry the two golden princesses of the Tang Dynasty, and was crowned a king by His Majesty the Tang Dynasty, and he was named a national teacher, etc., which proved that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty had no doubts about Lu Xiu's identity as an immortal teacher.

　　"I really want to see with my own eyes what kind of character he is, and whether he really has magical means."

　　"Haha, in a month's time, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will hold a ceremony of sacrificing the heavens, and as the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty, he will personally preside over it, so I will have a chance to see him at that time."

　　"Since it's an immortal teacher, I hope to help us ordinary people. I don't ask for anything else, I just ask that it won't be so cold in winter, and it won't snow anymore. Huhu, it's freezing to death.".

Chapter 243

　　From the Tang Dynasty to the early Ming Dynasty, the vassal kings had great power. In addition to having fiefs, they could have their own troops and horses directly under them.Until Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty, began to cut down the vassal.

　　And Lu Xiu's ten million mu fiefdom was directly placed in the grassland north of Hexi by Li Er.

　　Li Er's small calculation is very good. Putting Lu Xiu's fief on the grassland north of Hexi can play a role in deterring the nomads in the north and guarding Mobei in the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, Li Er has already started to consider dealing with Mobei. The Western Turks to the west regained the sovereignty of the Silk Road.

　　Anyway, with Lu Xiu's ability, a distance of several thousand miles is actually just a step away for him.

　　Lu Xiu made the king, and the officials tasted the sweetness from Lu Xiu's hands, so naturally they had no opinion.

　　With Lu Xiu's ability, let alone a king, if he is willing, even overthrowing the Tang Dynasty, it is obviously not difficult for him to be the emperor himself.

　　"King of Anping, although the name sounds a bit dirty, it can be considered an explanation for Li 25." Li Er is Li Er's most beloved princess, and naturally she can't marry him as a side room.

　　Mainly because the New Year is approaching, he will represent the official of the Tang Dynasty and will be responsible for presiding over the sacrifice to the sky, and Lu Xiu is the most annoying etiquette.

　　Getting married can be so troublesome, but one can imagine how annoying it would be to sacrifice.

　　In the cold winter, Lu Xiu planned to stay directly on Mingyu Island and did not want to leave.

　　He must be present to preside unless it is the voyage of the Spring Seeds and Maritime Trade Chambers in the spring of next year.

　　"Host, the tenth is about to bear fruit, please prepare for it."

　　Before I knew it, it had been almost a month since I started using Bubble Fruit.

　　Although Bubble Fruit is relatively tasteless, it is extremely entertaining, allowing people to dive into the sea and swim freely in the sea. Cheng Yaojin and the others have a great time playing.At the same time, all kinds of bubbles also let several women experience the modern way of bathing!

　　"The tenth fruit, it's best to have a fruit that can be used in combat, and don't come from the animal department."

　　It's been almost a year since Lu Xiu had awakened the system, and among the ten fruits, except for the surgical one, there is not a single one that can be beaten.

　　The cheetah is very strong, but it is too low to transform into a beast to fight with people, so Lu Xiu, the animal fruit, has never been used to fight.

　　In the system space, new fruits are bred and formed.

　　On the huge devil fruit tree, the number of ten fruits is also very rare.

　　"System, check the information on the tenth fruit."

　　"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the animal-type devil fruit, fish and fish fruit... phantom beasts!"

　　Seeing the panel information given by the system, Lu Xiu was stunned.At first, I was a little disappointed to hear that it was the fruit of the animal system. Who would have thought that the reversal started later.

　　The result of the tenth fruit really gave him an unexpected surprise.

　　Although it is not a natural type fruit, Eudemons species can transform into mythical beasts or characters in fairy tales, but it is a rare beast species than some natural type.

　　And it is one of the few animal abilities that can allow people to inhabit the sea, land and air.

　　The fruit produced by the system has perfected the weakness of being afraid of sea water, so it is more powerful than the turtle fruit.

　　It can transform into a huge dragon soaring in the sky, and it can swim in the bottomless sea. In the sea, there is no longer any creature that can threaten it.

　　Its eaters are the four emperors in the world of pirates, the beasts Kaido.

　　Animal fruits generally have the effect of strengthening the physique of the eater.

　　Generally speaking, herbivorous species are smaller than carnivorous species, carnivorous species are smaller than ancient species, and ancient species are smaller than phantom beast species.

　　Therefore, the strengthening of the turtle fruit is not as good as that of the cheetah fruit Su Dingfang, nor the falcon fruit.

　　Thinking about how the cheetah fruit can be strengthened to such an extent, and how much the strongest animal species can be strengthened, it is absolutely unimaginable! !

　　"Finally, I have drawn an Eudemons species, and it will definitely look handsome when it transforms into a dragon." Lu Xiu was not so excited for a long time.

　　Once a beast turns into a dragon, with a large body of tens of meters, or even hundreds of meters, one can imagine how strong the body will be.

　　In the world of pirates, Kaido committed suicide many times to no avail. Unless the powerful body is the domineering "Sakura", it is difficult for others to hurt his body.

　　Now in the Tang Dynasty, eating fish and fish fruits will definitely be an invincible existence.

　　Simple swords, bows and arrows can never break the defense of the fish and fish fruit turning into a dragon.

　　The most important thing is the dragon form, capable of possessing other abilities, the ability to breathe wind blades, and the ability to exhale dragon breath.

　　"Very good, very powerful. So far, the fruits of the animal system, plus the phantom beasts we just got today, can basically be completed."

　　Almighty in sea, land and air, only a mole who can dig a hole is short of it. .

Chapter 244

　　"Congratulations to the host for successfully breeding ten Devil Fruits. The system begins the first stage of the upgrade... Before the upgrade is complete, the fruit copy function and the host's fruit replacement function will be suspended..."

　　"System Upgrade?"

　　Lu Xiu was a little stunned. He didn't know what new changes would be brought to him by the system upgrade.

　　Lu Xiu was planning to try out the abilities of the phantom beasts, but now he can only put them on hold for now.

　　When he woke up the next day, the system finally indicated that the upgrade was complete.

　　In addition to the original function, this upgrade brings him a new function, which has a recycling function.

　　In the past, those with fruit ability could eat the second fruit, but the effect would be directly covered by the next fruit, and a fruit was wasted for no reason.

　　Moreover, the system does not have any restrictions on those who take the ability to copy the fruit.

　　So Lu Xiu never considered taking out the door fruit and copying it to anyone.

　　There are some superhuman abilities that are extremely weird, such as childlike fruits, which can turn people into toys without knowing it.

　　The same is true of the door fruit, it can open the door anywhere.If they were not controlled by Lu Xiu, then the world was so big that Lu Xiu couldn't stop it.
