The Unjust System and My War-Crazy Self

If I make a fuss now and mess things up...

Just then, there was a creaking sound outside the door.

The mastermind opened the door and saw a disguised spy from the Tumu Empire in Chang'an City.

"Come in quickly." The master welcomed the spy into the room.

"Did you hear anything?"

"I've found out why the Tang Emperor ignored us."

The spy took a sip of hot tea and said.

"It seems that recently the entire Tang court has been preparing to welcome a holy monk who has come from afar."

"Ah?" The master was confused.

No, can welcoming the monks be more important than the alliance between the Tumu Empire and the Tang Dynasty?

Changan.

A monk, looking dusty and exhausted, but with unusually bright eyes, was following a team of Jinwu Guards into the Daming Palace.

He passed through the East Upper Pavilion Gate of Xuanzheng Hall and entered the Zichen Hall.

This was where the Tang Emperor held court and met with envoys.

At this moment, hundreds of officials gathered in the hall, and everyone's eyes were filled with disbelief and excitement.

In the main hall, Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Chun, tightly grasped the armrests of his seat with both hands. Anyone could see how excited he was at the moment.

Finally, the person they were waiting for showed up.

Stepping into the hall, Master Puxuan's eyes were filled with tears. After paying his respects, his body trembled and his voice was hoarse, as if the next words would exhaust all his strength. "Your Majesty."

"The spirits of Anxi, along with the people of all ethnic groups in the Western Regions, report their victory to the Saint."

"The Three Towns of Anxi—Recovery!"

Next, it is time for Master Puxuan to talk about his victory.

After hearing Master Puxuan's words, Emperor Xianzong of Tang held the victory report and burst into tears.

"Even if I die, it still works!"

"Even in death, it still works!"

All the civil and military officials in the Purple Palace were also in tears.

After the Hexi line was cut off, thousands of Anxi troops became rootless and trapped in the four towns, surrounded by powerful enemies and unable to act alone.

Although there were one or two contacts in between.

The Tang court was moved to tears by their perseverance.

But most of the time, the Tang court was unable to receive any news from the Western Regions.

Twenty or thirty years ago, there was no news of the Anxi Army at all.

Calculating the time, even the young man back then would probably have turned into a handful of earth by now.

In this regard, the Tang court could only feel regret and sigh.

But they never expected it.

The Anxi Army can actually come back——

They were already a pile of white-haired, withered bones, yet they were still able to wade across the Forgetful River and raise the banner of the Tang Dynasty again in the Western Regions...

The isolated city in the remote area is full of white-haired ghosts.

After hearing about Shu Yichao's story, the entire court was filled with sighs.

"A family full of loyal heroes, a family full of loyal heroes."

The recovery of the land began with my grandfather's generation. When the men died, the women took over. Three generations never forgot the Tang Dynasty and fought desperately to finally recover the homeland.

"My Tang Dynasty soldiers are so magnificent!"

Emperor Xianzong of Tang immediately issued an order, and the entire Anxi army was promoted several levels again.

As for Shu Yichao, who was considered by everyone to be the orphan of three generations of loyal heroes, Emperor Xianzong of Tang did not care that he was only in his teens.

What about the Prince of Guiyi, who was the Grand Secretary of the Imperial Court, the Minister of the Left and the Imperial Censor, the Inspector of the Right Palace of the Imperial Guard, and the Grand Protector of Anxi, the Jiedushi of Anxi, Beiting, and Hezhong...

All arranged.

Even all the ancestors of the Shu family were posthumously honored.

"Not enough, not enough..."

But these could not satisfy Emperor Xianzong of Tang.

How can these honorary titles alone comfort the loyal and brave soldiers in the Western Regions?

He knew very well how much prestige this would bring him.

Have a look.

Even the deceased souls returned from hell and united with the people of all ethnic groups in the Western Regions to continue fighting for the Tang Dynasty.

Doesn’t this prove that the Tang Dynasty is the destiny of heaven?

And this happened during his reign.

Could it be that the heavens believed that he was a virtuous emperor and therefore granted the return of the First Soul Army?

After hearing this news, those rebellious guys under his command all started to wonder whether they were being so arrogant now and would be spanked by their ancestors in the underworld, or would be punished by God after death.

What, you said it was just a necromancer commanding the undead?

Good fellow, actually questioning the Anxi Xianhun Army——

Open the door, the bad guys of the Tang Dynasty are checking your household registration!

Say!

Where did the spy come from!?

What is the purpose? Who is behind this? Who is the person with ulterior motives behind this?

Come with us to the Sky Prison and give a clear account!

Anyway, no matter what the truth is, Emperor Xianzong of Tang insisted that the soul of Anxi had returned to the Western Regions.

And this seems to be the truth...

Therefore, empty reputation alone is not enough, there must be benefits.

At this moment, the soldiers in the Western Regions are asking for money, food, armor, weapons, and magical instruments! !

Even sending troops to provide direct support!

Coincidentally, Emperor Xianzong of Tang seemed to be able to provide these...

This is not the time of Emperor Dezong of Tang.

At that time, the Anxi Army was just holding on with great difficulty. The Tang court was unable to attack due to internal and external difficulties. It was powerless.

But now...

At this time in the Tang Dynasty, after the painstaking efforts of Emperor Xianzong of Tang, the feudal lords were basically pacified.

Most of the vassal states obeyed the central government's orders and paid taxes regularly or irregularly.

As for the three most unruly towns in Hebei, although they were still not very obedient, they were at least afraid of the imperial court.

Therefore, Emperor Xianzong of Tang believed that he could send troops to Hexi to support the Anxi Army in the Western Regions.

According to the news sent back by Master Puxuan, the three towns in the Western Regions have been recovered, and Shu Yichao is leading a large army to besiege Kunlun Iron Gate Pass. The Tumo army has suffered defeats in successive battles and the situation on the front is tight.

Even the reclusive Holy Snow Wizard had to show up to deal with the situation, lest it become completely out of control.

This prompted the Tumu Empire to seek an alliance with the Tang Dynasty to ease military pressure.

No wonder the Tang army's scouts discovered that the Tumu Empire's troops in Hexi seemed to be decreasing.

They were still wondering what was going on. Was it another move by the Tumo people, or was it a sign of civil unrest?

It seems that they were defeated by the Anxi Army, so they drew troops from other places to fill the holes in the Western Regions.

Now think about the alliance again -

This is not some pie in the sky at all, it is clearly a delaying tactic of the Tumo Empire!

That being the case...

While you are sick, I will kill you!!

"I have decided!" Emperor Xianzong of Tang made up his mind.

"Send troops to Hexi!"

"A hero rushing to the aid of the Tang Dynasty!"

Chapter 206 - Buddha Bones

After the formal reception ceremony, Emperor Xianzong of Tang was still not satisfied.

So he took Monk Puxuan's hand, prepared a banquet, and continued to entertain this monk who had traveled thousands of miles to report victory via Huihu.

He was eager to know more about the Western Regions.

Then, he gradually heard some unusual things.

"You mean, General Shu might be a reincarnation of a Buddha or a Bodhisattva?"

"Yes." Master Puxuan clasped his hands together and described in vivid detail what he had seen and heard.

Wherever he goes, bones serve as a road and the souls of the dead serve as guides. Cities and the earth will automatically change at his command, and fertile fields, wells, and roads can be created overnight.

Changing yin and yang, turning heaven and earth upside down, changing male and female, animal husbandry flourished, every family had cattle, sheep and horses, and the warehouses were full.

In short, in Master Puxuan's praise, Shu Yichao is simply the Black Lotus Buddha who came to save the world and bring the Western Paradise into reality.

“…”Tang Xianzong was silent.

He thought the other party was bragging.

That Shu Yichao should be like the Taoist priests, monks and other strange people supported by the Tang court, who can also observe the weather and pray for rain.

He was very effective in restoring production, so the rumors were so exaggerated——

As for why Master Puxuan said this, he probably wanted to attract the attention of the court and gain more assistance.

When one thinks about how the Anxi Army struggled to send a message to Chang'an decades ago, but only received worthless imperial edicts, it is no wonder that Master Puxuan did this.

As for the so-called reincarnation of Buddha or Bodhisattva——

Emperor Xianzong of Tang thought that he must have practiced similar magic.

As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he certainly didn't really have any religious beliefs. His only belief was the position under his butt.

He believes in Buddhism on the surface, but he does it just to make money.

In the eyes of Emperor Xianzong of Tang, those wizards, shamans, magicians, Taoists, monks... are all the same.

It’s just that the cultivation system is slightly different.

So, did this orphan of the Shu family practice some magic similar to Buddhism?

In that case, can we——

Emperor Xianzong of Tang whispered a few instructions to his attendants.

Soon after, several servants respectfully brought over a gift box decorated with colorful satin.

And on top of the box, a piece of finger bone as smooth as jade was emitting a faint light.

"This is..." Master Puxuan widened his eyes in surprise.

He felt something very similar to the magic power he had cultivated from it.

However, the spiritual energy condensed there was incredibly huge and unimaginably pure.

Magic weapon! Incomparable magic weapon!
