Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2168 Something Big Has Happened (Continued)

The singer from Pingkangfang suddenly felt something was wrong, opened her eyes and raised her head, and saw Chu Yanfu's expression as if she had seen a ghost, and hurriedly asked with concern: "What's wrong with Dalang?..."

Unexpectedly, when Chu Yanfu heard her words, he didn't even react at all, he just stared outside with wide-eyed eyes in a daze, his throat made a "ho-ho" sound, and after a long while, he screamed suddenly: "Dragon!"

The body bounced off the singer, and before she could put on her clothes, she jumped out of the car, but stepped on the ground, and fell naked, and fell a gourd on the ground. Regardless of the pain, she got up with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and looked up at the "dragon" in the sky. ", dancing like crazy.

The guards around were taken aback. Is my Dalang stunned?

He hurried over to check, but followed Chu Yanfu's gaze to the sky, and all of them knelt down...

*****
When the dragon-headed centipede kite took off in the wind, shaking its head and tail in mid-air, the whole city of Chang'an was thrown into chaos.

Since Fang Jun made the "telescope", it has not only become a standard equipment in the military, even officials and merchants are not stingy with its high price, buying one to enjoy at home.

When they were reminded by the servants at home that there were "magic objects" flying in the sky, they all took out their binoculars to observe. It looked good, and they were all crazy...

According to the legend, "Dragon" is a kind of miraculous animal that is good at change and can prosper the clouds and rains to benefit all things. .

In ancient times, "dragon" existed as the totem of the Chinese nation, and was considered as "auspiciousness" and one of the "four spirits". Meaning, the universe is prehistoric, unrivaled, in the sky and on the earth, I am the only one.

It can be said that in everyone's impression, the image of "dragon" is bright, mighty, upright, noble, and the embodiment of all the beauty in the world, so the Chinese nation also calls itself "the descendant of the dragon".

There is no one who does not respect the "dragon".

But imagination is one thing, reality is another.

When a "dragon" appears alive in front of your eyes, I am afraid that the first reaction of 90.00% of [-] people is not to worship it, but to run away in horror...

Inside the Hall of Two Rites.

His Majesty Li Er was dressed in bright yellow uniform, and was receiving the envoy of Kagas with a friendly smile, Chu Suiliang, Cen Wenwen and other close officials were all around.

The chief Shi Bo Qu Azhan was respectful to His Majesty Li Er, and His Majesty Li Er was also very interested in this person.

"Why does Qing have black hair and black eyes, unlike other tribes? Is it possible that your ancestors were really Han people?" Although the distance is far away, His Majesty Li Er is not ignorant of Xia Jiasi.Shiboqu Azhan is indeed not like many Shergians, and he is not the only one who is different. The entire Shrgarse royal family has such black hair and black eyes, unlike the red hair and blue eyes of ordinary Shergians.

Shibo Qu'a Zhan respectfully said: "Your Majesty the Great Emperor of Tang Dynasty, I dare not make a false statement. The ancestor is indeed Li Ling of the Han Dynasty. He was named the King of Jiankun by the Khan of the Huns. I heard that the royal family of the Tang Dynasty also came from Li Guang of the Han Dynasty, so I traveled thousands of miles to come here to recognize my relatives."

His Majesty Li Er stroked his beard proudly.

In fact, whether the ancestors of the Li royal family had Li Guang's blood, he himself did not know for sure...

But since he became the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and ruled the whole of China, he must attribute his blood to the Han people, otherwise he would be promoted as a "descendant of Xianbei" by those Shandong tyrants and Jiangnan gentry all day long, which would really be detrimental to his rule.

The common people don't care about you killing your brothers and forcing your father to abdicate, as long as you are diligent in government affairs and the officials are clear.

But if the emperor is a barbarian, then all the sense of identity will disappear, and those people with ulterior motives will make noise, and the Tang Dynasty will never have a peaceful life...

There is nothing difficult about recognizing an ancestor.

Isn't it the same with the chief of the Shrikes in front of him?

Even though they were indeed Li Ling's descendants, six or seven hundred years had passed, and they were living in the extreme north among the barbarians. This lineage had probably been thinned out for countless generations. The so-called "recognition of relatives" was just far-fetched.

But as long as it is beneficial to oneself, it is a relative.

For Xia Jiasi, being able to cling to a "rich relative" like Datang naturally has a lot of benefits. Even the annual tribute trade can make the lost royal family richer and deeper. Strengthen your own dominance base.

As far as Datang is concerned, the relative of Xia Jiasi is certainly a little poorer, but if he can follow Datang wholeheartedly, he can become a sharp knife to restrain the Hu people in Mobei. Datang's rule in Mobei has been stabilized.

This is a matter of mutual benefit, His Majesty Li Er naturally readily agreed...

Just as he was about to make some promises to deepen the exchanges between the two countries, he suddenly saw Wang De, the head of the housekeeper, staggering in and shouting: "Your Majesty, something is not right!"

His Majesty Li Er's eyes darkened.

In front of foreign envoys, such a flustered gaffe, isn't it throwing Datang face?

But he knew that Wang De had always been cautious, and he would never have panicked like this if there hadn't been a big event, so he asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"

Wang De took two steps forward, knelt down in front of His Majesty Li Er, and opened his mouth, "Dragon, dragon..."

His Majesty Li Er raised his eyebrows.

Wang De's heart tightened, he swallowed hard, his face was panicked and terrified, and said: "There is a dragon in the sky..."

"Ok?"

His Majesty Li Er's eyes were rounded.

There's a... dragon in the sky?

He didn't accuse Wang De of talking nonsense, no one dared to lie to them, no one even dared to speak lightly of unproven things in front of him.

Since Wang De said so, it must be true.

It's just... there is a dragon in the sky?

His Majesty Li Er is baffled. I wear a dragon robe and ride on a dragon chariot. I have been the emperor of the real dragon for many years, but I have never seen what a "dragon" looks like...

Immediately, he couldn't care less about Boqu Azhan, got up and strode to the gate of Liangyi Hall, standing on the high white marble steps, looking far into the distance.

The Hall of Eryi sits facing south, and the place where His Majesty Li Er stands can just see the "dragon" that is dancing in the wind and shaking its head and tail in mid-air.

It's just that the distance is a little farther, so I can't see it clearly...

"Bring the telescope!"

"Here!"

A guard walked away quickly.

Wang De trotted out from the hall tremblingly, stood behind His Majesty Li Er, looked up at the "dragon" in the sky, still terrified.

Shi Bo Qu A Zhan also followed, looking at the "monster" in the sky, he was also dumbfounded for a moment, feeling apprehensive.

The whole palace is in chaos.

All the guards and maids ran out. Although they didn't dare to make any noise, they all pointed and whispered to the "dragon" in the sky, without any strict rules.

His Majesty Li Er pursed his lips, feeling a little annoyed in his heart, and wanted to severely warn and punish him, but he dismissed the idea later.

Even he, the well-informed emperor who walked out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood, was shocked and at a loss in the face of such a strange "dragon", let alone these court ladies and guards?

excusable……

It is conceivable that not only the palace, but the entire Chang'an is in chaos at this moment.

The question is...is this really a "dragon"?
His Majesty Li Er squinted his eyes, looking at the thing in the sky that shook its head and tail but seemed to have no change in distance, feeling excited and apprehensive at the same time.

Chu Suiliang waited for a group of close officials to come running over. Cen Wenwen was old and had been sick in bed, but now his steps were as light as a swallow.

Covering the sun with his hand, Chu Suiliang stared at it for a while, took a breath, rolled his eyes, and suddenly pushed the golden mountain and the jade pillar to the ground, and shouted: "Your Majesty will become a martial artist, far away." Stepping up to the ancient sage king, it must have been inspired by the heavens, so it sent down auspicious auspiciousness, and rewarded His Majesty for loving the people like a child and being diligent in government affairs. The Tang Dynasty will prosper in the world and last forever!"

When everyone around heard it, they were shocked, if this guy is a master of flattering!

Immediately, they didn't dare to be negligent, and one after another bowed to the ground, and they all shouted: "Your Majesty will become a martial artist, love the people like a son, and the Tang Dynasty will prosper throughout the world and last forever!"

Immediately afterwards, the entire imperial palace was shaken, all the imperial guards and maids bowed to the ground in unison, and the voices of "Wencheng Wude" and "Prosperous in the world" rang out one after another, and even spread far outside the palace. , The soldiers and officials in the imperial city bowed and shouted in the direction of Taiji Palace from a distance, the momentum was terrifying!
His Majesty Li Er was high-spirited and full of ambition, stroking his beard, his heart was shaking and excited

The extremely narcissistic emperor also believed that what Chu Suiliang said was right, otherwise, how could this "dragon" that only appeared in ancient legends but never appeared in classics come to the world?

This is clearly God's approval of his rule, thinking that he is an unrivaled king far surpassing Qin Huang and Han Wu, and the status of "one emperor through the ages" is well established!
