Super Elation Under the Sun

(Five thousand words chapter)

Judging by the reign of the Great Zhou, it should be the fourth spring of Shending.

But according to Yanling's reign, it should be the spring of Zhenghe 16th year. This spring does not seem to be any different from previous springs. The only difference is this spring. Yanling thought for the first time In order to punish a small country, more than a dozen monks were dispatched for this. The final result turned out to be a big defeat. The dozen monks were also beheaded by the Luosang River, so the court in Luoyang City A violent quarrel occurred rarely above. The final result was that the Ministry of Justice sent three priests to arrest the two culprits that caused the deaths of the dozen or so monks, but the three priests were sent out more than ten days ago. After Luoyang City, he returned to Luoyang City today. When the three of them went together, they didn't bring anything back.

This matter was suppressed by the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, and did not speak out in front of the civil and military officials in the early morning, but after the early dispersal, he handed a note to the Yanling Emperor.

And the man who was one of the three dynasties in this mountain and river, after reading this book, just wrote a few words with a vermilion pen, then set aside the pen and went to the Yanling Mausoleum alone, which cost countless manpower and resources to build. The star building is more than a hundred meters high. When it climbs to its highest point, it looks like you are in the clouds. If you lack courage, you will probably be too scared to walk. When the building was built, there were a lot of people in Yanling. I don’t understand, the emperors of Yanling have shown their magnanimity and kindness. They have never done anything that hurts the people and money. Even if they occasionally need to build something, they recruited people from other small countries in the territory, and never let the people of Yanling suffer. The pain of hard labor, but in order to build this star picking building, the first emperor mobilized as many as 800,000 people, and it took three years to build. As for the number of people who died, they are not recorded in the annals of history. They are only officials of the Ministry of Industry. I just have some general understanding. It's just that the world didn't know the function of this building, but the Emperor Yanling knew it very well. The function of this building was not to sacrifice to the sky like the outside world. The Star Picking Building was actually a cage.

Emperor Yanling, wearing a black true dragon suit, climbed up the stairs step by step, and when he reached the high platform, he stood in the distance, looking at the clouds in the distance, with a plain expression.

The Yanling emperor is not tall, and he does not have the emperor's air on him. On the contrary, he is more like a middle-aged Confucian student. In fact, when Yanling Academy recruited students in Luoyang City, he was a fashionable prince. The emperor Yanling used the four characters of talent to make the masters of Yanling Academy a little surprised now. If it weren't for the first emperor to stop him, there should be an emperor in Yanling now, so it shouldn't be him. So Luoyang these years There have been rumors in the city that even if this emperor is an improper emperor, after entering the academy, he should be a rare monk among the mountains and rivers, and he must be able to go further on that road of cultivation.

In fact, no matter how you look at it, in addition to the talent in cultivation, the Yanling emperor is also exceptional in other aspects. Otherwise, how dare the first emperor have to leave the prince in the danger of the wrath of the academic palace , You must know that there are as many as six princes under the knee of the first emperor.

The Emperor Yanling after he assumed the throne has a correct reign. He has not been out of Luoyang City in the past sixteen years. The weather in Yanling is so smooth that not only the people love it, but the emperor's governance of Yanling is highly appreciated by the academic palace. In the past sixteen years, no minister of court has ever suffered a crime because of the monarch's joy and anger.

The sage of Yanling Monarch has been spread throughout the mountains and rivers.

If it weren't for Zhou Guotai's eagerness to expand the territory, the emperor would not care about it.

After half a stick of incense, the three priests of the Criminal Ministry had already arrived on the high platform of the Star Picking Tower. The three looked at Emperor Yanling standing with their hands behind and bowed and saluted, and one of them reported: "Your Majesty, all the details are It has already been submitted to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. His Majesty must have seen it. The failure of this arrest is really something that can be countered by non-human resources. The two of them seem to not care about such artifacts as Qianlijie. They have crushed at least 20 pieces along the way ."

When these words were said, the face of the priest was full of bitterness.

How can this person who can crush twenty pieces at every turn be an ordinary monk?

The Emperor Yanling didn’t turn his head, but smiled calmly: “It is said that there is a girl who likes to wear a blue shirt and a young man with a hatchet. A pair of young girls gathered my dozen or so monks in the Luosang River. They have all been killed. At least there must be the Blue Silk Realm. For such a young Blue Silk Realm, I sent people to arrest them. In fact, it was a very stupid decision at the beginning. Now I have not caught it, but let me I don’t feel surprised. If I fail, I fail. I don’t care. It’s just that I got another report a few days ago. Guess what?"

The three consecrations were silent. Although His Majesty the Emperor was smiling, everyone knew that it was not that simple.

The Emperor Yanling turned around, looked at the three priests and said with a smile: "After the Luosang River, Chen Guoshi still went south, but these tens of thousands of soldiers were hundreds of miles away from Shaoliang City. Being carried by a young man with less than 100,000 horses around the mountains and wild like pigs, he was defeated in less than a day. Even if it was hundreds of thousands of pigs that were caught by the people of the week, it must have been caught for more than a day. "

"I have lived in Luoyang City for a long time, but I am not a deaf or blind man. Although the grand remarks made by the monarch of the State of Zhou a few years ago, I admire it very much, but I can't sit and watch it continue to grow. Now Yanling has been damaged once, in Luoyang City. Those nobles in this are just thinking that when they see me embarrassed for the second time, I will not take action. Luo Li, you will go to Chen Guo immediately to convey my will, and then say that Chen Guo will take care of the matter afterwards. Yanling provides weapons, food and grass, but does not send a soldier. I am a good son in Yanling and should not die in those places. Tell the monarch Chen Guojun, I will give him one year. After a year, if Zhou is still there, I will Destroyed Chen Guo and Zhou Guo."

One of the three worshippers took the order, leaving only the other two upstairs.

After the person completely disappeared in the Star Picking Tower, Emperor Yanling stared at the remaining two people and said gently: "Luo Li and Xuegong have had a gang up long ago. I don't want to see him again. You two will remove him for me. The territory of Chen Kingdom is the best. If it is not in the territory of Chen Kingdom, it does not matter in the territory of Yanling. I know that Yanling is behind Yanling, but Yanling is Yanling, and Xuegong is Xuegong. Although there is a connection, I I don’t want to think that I’m a marionette, everyone is watching every move. You don’t need to worry about the academy's anger, even if things are revealed, the academy will not take action, because this is my attitude, gentlemen and teachers in the academy. Will understand."

The emperor Yanling said that the clouds are light and windy, but in fact it is not like that. Yanling Academy is the first academic palace under the Confucian school among the mountains and rivers, not to mention the number of monks under the monks, just behind the Confucian mountain, It’s awe-inspiring enough. Among the three religions, although religion is dominant in the number of saints, there are four saints according to Confucianism. Each of them can move mountains and seas, and can destroy a secular dynasty at every turn, holding annoyance. In fact, no one knows the risk of killing people under his school.

It’s just that the emperor standing upstairs naturally considers things more long-term than they are downstairs. In the sixteen years since his ascension to the throne, the emperor has not done a single thing that affects Yanling Guozuo. The relationship between the two sides is also very good, so these two penal departments really dare not doubt anything.

Although the two of them said they would be suspicious, they were in Luoyang City. As the consecration of the Criminal Ministry, they should act according to orders. Therefore, they didn't say anything. After nodding their heads, they went downstairs.

After the two left, standing on the top of the star-catching building, Emperor Yanling laughed at himself: "I don't know, even this is just a marionette?"

The people upstairs had all gone downstairs except for him. It stands to reason that no one should hear what he said, but a flat voice soon sounded.

"You are trapped in Luoyang City. I am trapped in this building. Although the size is different, the essence is the same, but I am better than you, so I don't need to be that puppet."

Turning his head following the voice, Emperor Yanling saw a middle-aged man who was not wearing a gray cloth shirt and did not know where he came from.

The man was thin, with a plain expression, with an ordinary iron sword on one side of his waist, and a yellowed book on the other.

The feeling of a man is very different, occasionally some scholars are elegant, and occasionally swordsman's edge.

Looking at the yellowed book that the man saw, the Emperor Yanling joked: "Mr. Changgu, I don't know how many times I have read this book. Why don't you keep it on your waist?"

The middle-aged man replied calmly: "If you can't get out of this building, you won't be able to read new books. When you are boring, you can only read it a few times. That's the truth."

The Emperor Yanling sighed softly: "Mr. Changgu, I cannot leave the city of Luoyang for the people of Yanling, but Mr. is so talented, there is no reason to be trapped in this building. What Mr. It’s puzzling, you know, it’s too much to bury the sir by being trapped in this place."

The middle-aged man looked at the clouds in the distance and said calmly: "Li Changgu is just painting the ground as a prison."

Such four characters do not mean helpless, just a taste of nostalgia.

Emperor Yanling looked at the middle-aged man named Li Changgu in front of him with a complicated expression. He remembered the secrets handed down among the imperial families. Every year in Luoyang city, young children were selected to enter the palace to study. Li Changgu was the same. One of them, but also the most special one. After being selected by the master of the school, the other young children will be taken back to the Yanling Academy in Jingkou Mountain. However, Li Changgu did not choose to do so. Instead, he walked out of Luoyang City alone and walked thousands of miles. Jingkou Mountain, and then endured pain step by step ascended the gate of Jingkou Mountain and walked into the academy. Although this is not a earth-shattering event, it is enough to make people feel admired that Li Changgu was only eight years old at that time. Tong, traveled thousands of miles, and then faced the test of Xuegong to climb the Jingkou Mountain. It was really not easy at all, but he walked into the Xuegong like that. At that time, many people treated him in the Xuegong. Add it with your own eyes. If you have not been selected for a long time, I am afraid that you will have to make some waves in the school. After climbing the mountain, Li Changgu walked far faster than his peers from the beginning of the road of cultivation, less than ten years. After passing through the introspection state, in the next few years, I have even passed the Qingsi and Taiqing realms, and in the year of Li Zhiyan, I was only one step away from crossing the Taiqing realm and stepping into the dusk. You must know the Taoism that is now attracting worldwide attention. Now it’s almost the year before the crown, and it’s too Qingjing. Even if Li Changgu is worse than her, it is not much worse. Li Changgu’s talent and perseverance have made many masters of the Academy treat him personally. A master was even thinking about beating his beloved daughter to Li Changgu. This was a wonderful thing, but he was flatly rejected by this promising young man. The reason given was that he had been there long ago. There is a favorite woman in Luoyang city. The master was embarrassed by him. Although he was extremely angry, he did not have a good attack. Ten years later, he didn't know why. Li Changgu turned to practice swords as if he had lost his heart, saying that he wanted to learn those swords. Scholars generally cut all injustices in the world with a single sword. This action naturally angered many people in the academy. But at that time, Li Changgu's cultivation base had reached the Chaoyang realm, and he learned the sword again, which led to a surge in cultivation. Not an opponent, so Li Changgu went downhill with a sword and returned to Luoyang City. No one could stop him. In the end, a certain old master in the academy who had been in retreat personally took the young man back to the academy. In jail, no one wants to face the first genius in the school in recent years. Therefore, after some discussions, it was decided that Yanling would build a star picking building to imprison such rebellious children. Li Changgu was imprisoned. The first person here.

Also the only one.

From the beginning to the end, except for the crazy scholar who wrote a great poem and said a few words for him, no one spoke for Li Changgu.

After that, the scholar was also half-ejected from the academy, and he had traveled through the mountains and rivers over the years and was gone.

I want to come from the time Li Changgu entered the building until now, the Emperor Yanling has changed two generations, and the time has been more than 70 years, and this star picking building has been banned by the Academy, and the cultivation level cannot be used, let alone broken. Therefore, the swordsman of the Chao and Twilight Realm has not improved a bit in this building for more than seventy years, and is still spinning in place.

If this is not the case, it is estimated that this extremely talented Li Changgu can now almost compete with Xuegong.

When the Emperor Yanling was still the prince, he had climbed the tower of the star picking up to a height of more than one hundred meters, and he had seen Mr. Changgu sitting on the top platform all day long overlooking the entire city of Luoyang. At that time, Mr. Changgu's temper was not as good as it is now Now that he is so cold, he is still willing to chat with him. He has occasionally visited the building over the years and occasionally asked about the country's strategy, but not every time he met this Mr. Changgu who didn't know whether he was a scholar or a swordsman.

But Emperor Yanling still admired him sincerely.

Looking at Li Changgu, Emperor Yanling suddenly said, "Mr. Changgu, the woman you had entrusted me to care for has passed away in the late spring seven years ago."

Li Changgu's face remained as usual, "I know, I also know that she married a good family, who treated her very well, and later gave birth to a son and a daughter. The family was happy, even at the end of spring seven years ago, I did In front of her bed, it's just that she can't see me, and she doesn't have me in her eyes."

Li Changgu laughed at himself: "There are too many restrictions here, and the only way to go downstairs is to go out of the orifice. There is only one stick of incense each time, and the cost is really too high. I have been out of the orifice seven times, and it takes too much effort to repair the base. The realm has fallen into the twilight, but the ending is not very good for me, but it is her, which is not bad."

Emperor Yanling smiled bitterly and said: "These things are unpredictable. Mr. Changgu must have been prepared already, but the husband is trapped in this building, which has something to do with her."

Li Changgu shook his head and smiled: "I am trapped here, but it has nothing to do with her."

Li Changgu didn’t finish his words. He just held down the hilt of the sword at his waist, and suddenly smiled: “One day, I will break through this place with a single sword. Back then, when I was going down the mountain in the academic palace, I met a man of quite advanced realm. Senior swordsman, seeing his aura, there is nothing comparable to a group of pedantic scholars in the academy. Before picking up the sword, I didn't know why the swordsmen in the mountains and rivers came out of the sword. After picking up the sword, it suddenly became clear. Rugged, but I can express my confidence most directly. I went to practice swords after Li Changgu did not study, but it was a great joy."

Emperor Yanling said sincerely: "Then I will wait for the day when Mr. Changgu cut this building with a sword."

Li Changgu's expression returned to calm, "After she died, I no longer wandered out of my body, and my realm didn't fall anymore. It's just that there are many restrictions here, and it's not easy to break."

Emperor Yanling laughed and said nothing, not much.

Li Changgu suddenly remembered something, looked at Emperor Yanling, and said calmly: "The donkey I rode out of the school palace must be dead. The poems I wrote should still be in Luoyang City. If it is convenient for you Bring it upstairs. This person is getting older and wants to see the previous things."

The Emperor Yanling looked at the appearance of Li Changgu's middle-aged man, thinking that although you are already a hundred years old, you can never say that you are old. Even if you fall from this world, there will be at least more than 500 Spring and Autumn are coming.

It's just that the suspicion turned to suspicion, and he quickly accepted it, "Mr. Changgu's poem, after I go downstairs, I will be asked to find it and send it to the Star Picking Tower as soon as possible."

Li Changgu nodded, "It's so good."

Emperor Yanling looked at Li Changgu and asked, "I have read many poems from my husband before, but I don't know which one my husband is most satisfied with?"

Li Changgu was silent for a long time before he smiled and said, "I am satisfied. After the poem is written, I feel that each has its own merits and dare not make more choices."

Emperor Yanling laughed.

After chatting for a long time, even Emperor Yanling could not leave here, so he got up to say goodbye, Li Changgu nodded and watched him leave.

When I went downstairs, I remembered a little story I had heard in Luoyang City when I was young. It was told that there was a knight in the mountains and rivers. He saw that there was an evil dragon doing evil in the world, so he slashed the yellow dragon with his sword. After Huanglong was beheaded, he has since risen to peace in the world, rich in clothing and food. But when the knight slept one day, he dreamed of the god, and the **** asked him, "You cut the yellow dragon, who will build the white jade building for the emperor?" The knight laughed, "then go to nine days and crush the white jade building. "The priest is furious: "What a person who doesn't know the sky and the earth!" Facing the anger of the priest, the knight didn't care, so suddenly the blue donkey came to the night sky, and when it flew up, the hero went into nine days with his sword!

But the chivalrous man in this story entered nine days into nine days. There is no news yet. But after so many years, Bai Yulou should be broken, right? You should come back too?

After the Emperor Yanling went downstairs, he stood downstairs, looked up at the sky, and muttered in a low voice: "Mr. Changgu, I don't know where to go to the Baiyu Tower, but I really want to see you break this building with a sword one day. , How about going down coolly, not only for you, but also for me?"

On the high platform of the Star Picking Tower, Li Changgu sat cross-legged. He took off the iron sword at his waist and placed it on his knees. His spine was straight, his eyes were flat on the sea of ​​clouds in front of him.

As for the yellowed book, what old book is actually there, but it is just some of his many poems before. Now he has opened it to his side, and there are only a few verses written on that page. Can be extremely mad.

The poem read, "I will cut the dragon's feet and chew the dragon meat so that it cannot go back in the morning or fall at night. Naturally the old will not die, and the young will not cry."
