Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

On the official road away from the capital of Yunguo, a forbidden army of more than a thousand people was waiting here early.

The impetus of this forbidden army is not small, the banners stand like a forest, and the scale is huge.

The armored stomachs of the soldiers in the army are gorgeous and bright, the helmets are decorated with feather tassels, the wings are decorated behind them, and there are all kinds of gorgeous parasites on the horses, adorning them.

Such soldiers and horses, with armored stomachs and gorgeous decorations, are majestic and mighty.

Let's not talk about whether the combat power of this army is comparable to the elite of a hundred battles.But just this appearance is enough to make people look sideways!
Obviously, such a troop is not an ordinary army, but a ceremonial imperial guard guarding today's emperor!
At this time, on the official road in the distance, the mission team of the Shule Kingdom came slowly under the escort of the soldiers and horses of the four guards.

The mission of the Shule Kingdom came from the Western Regions and passed through the territory of Tubo.

In order to prevent accidents, the Shule Kingdom Mission could only disguise themselves as a caravan and came to the territory of Yun Kingdom under the secret escort of [-] soldiers from the Four Guards Department.Only then did they dare to re-open the banner of the Shule Kingdom Mission.

Although the Shule Kingdom is a small country in the Western Regions, according to the etiquette system, it is necessary to send a guard of honor to come.

The guard of honor guard in front of us was ordered by the emperor, and under the leadership of officials from the Ministry of Rites, came here to welcome the diplomatic missions from other countries.

Seeing the Shule mission coming, a small group of imperial troops who had been waiting quietly surrounded a general and rushed forward.

The leader, a general dressed in a gorgeous armored stomach, held a tiger talisman at this time, and shouted loudly to the soldiers of the four guards of the escort mission:

"Dayun Forbidden Army Gongsheng Battalion, Colonel Zhong Yi, is ordered by His Majesty to take over the responsibility of guarding the mission!"

Among the soldiers of the four guards, someone went forward to inspect the tiger talisman, and immediately led all the soldiers to kneel down on one knee, shouting loudly:

"Follow His Majesty's will!"

After the smooth handover, the lieutenant of the Forbidden Army's Gongsheng Battalion also calmed down, facing the dusty and tired-looking crowd, he said:
"The big camp on the outskirts of Beijing has prepared a camp for all the brothers to rest. This time, all the brothers have made meritorious service in guarding, and the merit will be increased. Your Majesty is kind enough to give you rice, meat and cloth. You are allowed to rest and bathe in Beijing for three days before you go. Set off and return to Yangtong!"

The soldiers of the four garrison divisions also had happy smiles on their faces, and cheered in unison:

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"

After the handover of the mission guards was completed, the officials from the Ministry of Rites sent by Yunguo came forward to formally contact the Shule mission.

Yu Chisheng, who was the leader, now had a friendly smile on his face, and said loudly to the members of the Shule Mission:

"By His Majesty's order, I will take full responsibility for the affairs of your country's mission! The official of the Ministry of Rites, Wai Lang Wei Chisheng, has met the envoy!"

This Yu Chisheng is a character summoned by the blue training card [Return to Tang Fanjiang], and he is from the royal family of Khotan in the Western Region.

After Xiao Cheng knew that the Shule Kingdom in the Western Region was coming to pay tribute, he pulled Yuchi Sheng out, gave him an official position in the Ministry of Rites, and ordered him to come to welcome the mission.

At this time, Yu Chisheng, when he saw the Shule Mission, who was also from the Western Regions, he couldn't help feeling a little close.

...

The leader of the Shule Mission, Marquis Anpan of Shule Fuguo, was a little surprised when he saw Yuchi Sheng in Yunguo's official robe.

This person's figure and appearance have some characteristics of the Western Regions...

At this time, Yu Chisheng felt close to the Shule Mission, but he knew that he was wearing an official robe, which represented the dignity of the Dayun court, so he didn't talk much, just continued to say politely:
"Arrangements have been made in the Honglu Temple State Guest House, and all the missionaries are invited to go with me!"

An Pan hastily bowed to express his thanks, and then led the mission into Zhongqing City under the guard of the forbidden army.

The prosperity of Qingcheng, in today's world, can only be compared with Jinling.

As soon as they entered the city, the members of the Shule Kingdom Mission were overwhelmed by the prosperity of Zhongqing City.

The chariots, horses and pedestrians on the streets of the city are all exquisitely dressed, and the chariots and horses are gorgeous.The buildings are towering, majestic and majestic, and everywhere is prosperous.You can even see merchants dressed in various countries on both sides of the street.

Among the 36 countries in the Western Regions, most of them can be called wealthy.But in a wealthy capital, it is determined that there is no such grandeur and grandeur in Zhongqing City!
And just when the people of Shule Mission were shocked by the prosperity of Dayun City, they heard the sound of drums and music coming from the road ahead.

The people on the street who had come to join in the fun, standing on both sides of the street and watching the Shule mission, suddenly rushed towards the street ahead as if they had received some signal.

With such a sudden change, the soldiers of the Forbidden Army Gongsheng Battalion guarding the mission seemed to have been prepared, without any panic, surrounded the mission team, and turned directly to the street on the right at the next intersection.

Among the missions, Yule, a noble young man from Shule, looked forward curiously, and asked his uncle:
"Uncle, are there any nobles from the big cloud coming in front? Otherwise, why did we suddenly give way?"

Hearing this, Anpan frowned, stretched out his hand to grab his nephew, and scolded in a low voice:

"This is the capital of the Dayun Kingdom. Remember that we are here to ask for the protection of Emperor Dayun. We must always be cautious in our words and deeds, and don't ask random questions!"

His uncle was so cautious and serious, and this place was indeed in the capital of another country, the young Yule could only hold back his words and retracted in resentment.

But Yu Chisheng on the side, at this moment, chuckled lightly, and continued:
"My Majesty, Emperor Dayun, created a system called imperial examinations. Regardless of people's age, blood, origin, or nationality, they are promoted to officials of the court by testing their talents."

"Today is the end of the imperial examination. The young scholars who passed the test will receive the honor of being praised by the people of the whole capital. In front of them is their team... Moreover, we did not deliberately avoid it. Now we are here Direction to the State Guest House."

The uncle and nephew looked at Yuchi Sheng in surprise.

The two of them just had a conversation, and they used the official language of Shule Kingdom, called Saiyu.

And Yu Chisheng, a young man who looked a bit like a man from the Western Regions but was wearing an official robe of Yun Kingdom, was able to understand their conversation!
...

Yu Chisheng looked at the surprised expressions of the two, blinked his eyes slightly, and said directly in fluent Sai language:

"I am from Khotan."

There are 36 countries in the Western Regions, and there are many languages.But coincidentally, the official languages ​​of Khotan, Shule, and Shache are all Sai language, at most there are few differences in wording and accent!

Tomato Novel
When An Pan heard the words, he suddenly realized.

Among the 36 countries in the Western Regions, the appearance of the people of Khotan is the most similar to that of the Central Plains, which is quite different from other countries.

It's no wonder that Yu Chisheng in front of him, although he has some features of the Western Regions, is still very different from the other Western Regions' deep-eyed and high-nosed looks!

The eyes of Yule, a noble young man from Shule, suddenly lit up, and said:
"Are you really from the Western Regions? So, did you also pass this imperial examination and become an official of the Dayun Kingdom?"

When Yule was in Tubo, he had already seen the strength of Dayun's soldiers.Entering the territory of Yunguo, walking all the way until Zhongqing City, all you can see along the way is the prosperity and prosperity of the Central Plains.

At this time, when he heard that Dayun actually had an imperial examination system, which selected officials only based on their talents and learning, regardless of their country of origin, age and blood, it showed that a big country tolerated thousands of things, and it was inevitable that he felt a little yearning for it.

Being asked such a question by the young man, Yu Chisheng couldn't help being a little embarrassed.

Yu Chisheng was originally unwilling to take on the important task of governing a country, and yearned for the prosperity of the Central Plains, so he gave up his status as the prince of Khotan and came to Yun Kingdom in the name of studying.

After entering Zhongqing City, although he was also arranged to study in Jixia Academy, he didn't care about his homework and studies. He only knew how to invite friends and go to drink flowers every day, no!It is to appreciate the prosperity of Zhongqing City at night.

It was also this time that the Shule Kingdom Mission from the Western Regions came suddenly, and no one could be found in the Honglu Temple to greet him, so Xiao Cheng dragged him out, and temporarily hung up a small official in the Ministry of Rites .

Facing Yule's envious and yearning eyes at this time, Yu Chisheng was naturally embarrassed to speak, so he could only cough lightly, and said lightly:

"Many of my classmates have taken the imperial examination. If you are interested, I can introduce you to them."

Hearing this, the young Yule was overjoyed. He was about to nod his head in agreement, but suddenly thought of something, his face froze, and then a look of disappointment appeared, and he slowly shook his head and said:

"It's better to forget it... I am the Shule royal family, and I have my own responsibilities. I can't stay in Dayun."

Zhongqing City is prosperous and prosperous, unlike the world, it has a great attraction for young people who admire and yearn for the prosperity of the world.

But although this place is good, as the royal family of Shule himself, he also has his own responsibilities...

Anpan on the side, seeing his nephew's lost appearance, sighed slightly in his heart, and actually felt a little regret.

Ben just wanted to bring his nephew out to see the world and to train him.But he ignored the huge impact on him after seeing the prosperity of the Central Plains at his age!
Seeing his expression like this, Yu Chisheng already had guesses in his heart, so he didn't say anything more.

His hometown, Khotan, is one of the most powerful countries among the 36 countries in the Western Regions, with tens of thousands of people in armor, the country is peaceful, and few people dare to invade.Only then was he able to let go of everything, and enjoy the prosperity of the Central Plains in this Zhongqing City with peace of mind.

...

However, this Shule country is not so powerful, but it is still located at the intersection of the south and north roads in the Western Regions, and it is the main import and export of east-west traffic.

Such a place has always been coveted by various forces, how can there be no battles and killings?
At this time, the young man is yearning for it, but he can't leave everything behind and stay in Zhongqing City. His complicated thoughts are full of entanglement and helplessness, which is naturally understandable!
The Shule Mission, under the guard of the Imperial Army, continued to head towards the State Guesthouse ahead.

Hearing the advocacy of rites and music behind him, Shule couldn't hold back his heartbeat, and subconsciously looked back.

Just in time, I saw a handsome young man with a modest and calm demeanor wearing a red Xinke Jinshi uniform, riding on a fine horse, walking with his head up through the intersection behind him amidst the cheers of the people in Beijing.

Yule, who was not very familiar with the Mandarin of the Central Plains, listened carefully to the cheers and applause from the people behind him, and with great difficulty distinguished the name of the young man in the big red robe who was cheering for everyone.

"Xiu Cai Division, the newly promoted first-class Jinshi, imperial conferred number one scholar, Fang Xuanling..."
-

Yunguo Imperial Palace, in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Feng Bao bowed and reported:

"Your Majesty, the Shule Mission has entered the capital!"

"Understood, choose a day when I'm free, and call them into the palace to see them!" Xiao Cheng, who was sitting on the dragon chair, said casually, as if he didn't care much.

In fact, Shule, a small and remote country located in the Western Regions, is really not worthy of the current Emperor of Dayun Kingdom's concern.

At this time, several paper talismans were placed on the imperial eucalyptus in front of Xiao Cheng.The runes on it are flying and flying, and they have a mysterious meaning, which makes people subconsciously unable to bear a few more glances.

[Two-star treasure, child-seeking talisman

Introduction: The spells recorded in the Taoist secret book "Taiping Jing" have amazing effects
Effect: After use, the probability of a woman's conception is 15%]

[Two-star treasure, exorcising ghosts

Introduction: The spells recorded in the Taoist secret book "Taiping Jing" have amazing effects
Effect: After use, remove the negative effects caused by "evil things"]

[Two-star treasure, disease-dispelling talisman

Introduction: The spells recorded in the Taoist secret book "Taiping Jing" have amazing effects
Effect: After use, the health value will recover by 10 points]

……

At this time, Xiao Cheng didn't care about these spells with different functions, but put all his thoughts on the simple book in his hand.

[Five-Star Treasure, Taiping Jing (also known as "Taiping Qingling Book")
Introduction: According to legend, the classics of Taiping Dao awarded by gods and men center on the idea of ​​"harmony between man and nature", and based on the theory of yin and yang and five elements, advocating "doing nothing without doing nothing".Its content is extensive, involving heaven and earth, yin and yang, the five elements, gods, etc., expounding the way of governing the country, including many medical skills, pharmacology, and recording spells, divination, geomancy, taboos and other alchemy.

Effect: After use, 1. Wisdom Attribute 10, Literature Attribute 10, Political Attribute 10. 2. Obtain the third-level medical skill "strengthening the body and eliminating evil". 】

After Zhang Jiao agreed to serve as an official, several treasures contained in the purple training card [He Hua Zi Zi] were presented by Zhang Jiao.

Compared with the five-star treasures that Xiao Cheng currently holds, such as the Raging Dragon Sword, Shooting Dragon Bow, and Bingzhu Seal, this "Taiping Jing" lacks a special skill, and has become a third-level medical skill that is of little use.

...

However, this time, the attributes of wisdom, literature, and politics have all increased by ten points, which is also in line with the level and strength of a five-star treasure.

What attracted Xiao Cheng the most was actually the many thaumaturgies recorded in this book.

After looking through it carefully, Xiao Cheng still shook his head slightly, a little disappointed.

In this book, there is neither the art of turning beans into soldiers, nor the magic of calling wind and rain.

It only records some things such as divination and astrology, medical astrology, and the concept of governing the country. Although it is profound and extensive and involves many things, it is not superior to the various methods of various schools of thought.

Only the talisman technique, which relies on the cinnabar talisman to attract the power of the underworld to achieve many strange effects, is a little bit interesting.

But it's just a bit interesting, after all, the effect that the other hundred secret arts can achieve is much better than a single spell!After all, this spell is just a convenience.

Xiao Cheng closed the "Taiping Jing" in disappointment, pondered for a while, and then said seriously:

"Send this book to Wenyuan Pavilion, give it to Wenyuan Pavilion scholar Huang Shang, and collect it personally!"

Prior to the turmoil in central Beijing, Confucianism was wronged by Xiao Cheng. The head of the contemporary Confucianism family bowed his head and admitted defeat, and sent many Confucianism secret collections as an apology.

This Wenyuan Pavilion was created at this time to collect copies of various classics for exclusive use by the royal family.And Huang Chang, who is a professional counterpart, naturally took up the post of Bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion!
Today's Huang Chang is already at the top of the ninth rank, infinitely close to the realm of land gods.Xiao Cheng sent this "Taiping Jing" to him in the hope that he would gain some insights and become the first master of land gods among Xiao Cheng's subordinates!
Seeing Xiao Cheng's serious expression, Feng Bao hurriedly stepped forward, took it respectfully, and said in response:

"Yes, servant girl will go there in person."
