Chapter 43 Yang Yuhuan and Fang Xuanling
Lin Ke, who had been absent for a long time, finally made an appearance.
It is gratifying that reforms were carried out in an orderly manner in each dynasty.
Of course, this excludes a few less-than-ideal emperors.
Greetings, esteemed ancestors! It's been a long time!
Lin Ke smiled, she hadn't expected that half a month would have passed in the Dynasty after she slept.
However, I've already seen quite a few of our ancestors on the small screen.
It's hilarious how Su Shi is constantly urging me to update my blog, saying things like "Today I'll eat Dongpo pork, tomorrow I'll eat crab!"
This is much more fun than attending the morning court session on time!
……
"Today, we have invited two renowned figures: Yang Guifei (Yang Yuhuan) and Fang Xuanling, known for his strategic thinking and decisive leadership."
Not long after, Lin Ke met the voluptuous beauty and the gentle and refined man.
Even though it wasn't the first time she'd seen it, Lin Ke was once again amazed by the system's awesomeness.
When Yang Yuhuan found herself in a strange place, she was bewildered. Thinking back to when she was forced to commit suicide at Mawei Slope, her eyes reddened once again.
But how could a mere woman possibly overthrow the glorious Tang Dynasty?
Another guest, Fang Xuanling, kept a distance from Yang Yuhuan, as if afraid of being seen.
Lin Ke was somewhat amused and exasperated; it turned out that Fang Xuanling really was afraid of his wife!
Lin Ke handed Yang Yuhuan a few tissues, helped her sit up, and sighed, "Sister Yang, don't cry anymore. Drink some water and calm down."
Lin Ke then said to Fang Xuanling, who was standing beside her, "Lord Fang, please sit down as well. Today we're going to talk about the An Lushan Rebellion."
Fang Xuanling was greatly alarmed, his heart pounding like a drum. He exclaimed repeatedly, "Could this be the An Lushan Rebellion that led to the decline of the Tang Dynasty?!"
Lin Ke nodded under Fang Xuanling's gaze.
……
During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty
After Fang Xuanling disappeared, Li Shimin sat with a group of civil and military officials, staring intently at the small screen placed in the center.
Li Shimin could not believe that the Tang Dynasty could rise and fall under the control of just one person!
He recalled that at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang soldiers were able to win against overwhelming odds thanks to his Qin King's Battle Song.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, wondering if he hadn't done enough, which was why the Tang Dynasty had declined so easily!
Upon seeing this, the civil and military officials around him all rushed to comfort their emperor, saying that it must have been the emperor's incompetence at that time, and that the emperor could not possibly blame himself!
……
On the other side, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang at Mawei Slope
Li Longji watched helplessly as his concubine disappeared, filled with grief, until someone presented him with a square.
Inside were his living concubine, and Fang Xuanling, who had died many years ago.
Everyone here was astonished. What kind of divine power was this?
Some even felt guilty for having pressured Yang Yuhuan earlier.
In fact, everyone knows very well that Yang Yuhuan was just a sinner who was pushed out.
But if we say she was guilty, the decline of the Tang Dynasty was not solely due to her.
But if we say she is innocent, the Yang family is also indulged by her glory.
In short, the emperor had already made his choice between his empire and his beautiful woman.
……
Lin Ke forced a smile, otherwise she felt that the scene was a little strange: a dignified Lord Fang sitting upright, and a Yang Guifei holding a doll with reddened eyes.
"Well then, let's start with a quiz. This time, the prize is a medicine for infants who have died young, designed to strengthen their immune systems and help them become healthier."
宋朝
Upon hearing this, Emperor Renzong of Song, Zhao Zhen, looked intently. His problem of having offspring had always been a source of worry for him. Although Consort Miao's youngest son, Xin'er, had survived, he remained sickly.
Apart from that, only my daughter survived. If Xin'er can grow up healthy, then I will not need to resort to adoption.
Others shared his idea: the death of infants was not only a problem for the emperor; countless children among the common people died from hunger or illness.
……
"So, in the early Tang Dynasty, who was the one who navigated the complex relationships among the three members of the Li family with ease, and who was regarded as a pillar of the state by all three?"
"The first is Wei Zheng, the second is Feng Deyi, so please choose!"
Fang Xuanling froze, wondering if he had misheard! How could his Emperor have such a cunning and scheming person among his subordinates!
Yang Yuhuan felt that Wei Zheng's name was very well-known, and she had long heard about his excellent relationship with Emperor Taizong.
If Wei Zheng were merely a scheming man, why would Emperor Taizong have placed such importance on him?
However, it seems that after Wei Zheng's death, Emperor Taizong knocked down his tombstone.
How can I choose?
……
Tang Dynasty
Li Shimin could hardly believe that he had such talent under his command, and he looked around at his ministers.
He snorted coldly, "No wonder that brat Wei Zheng always disagrees with me!"
Feng Deyi had always worked under him, so how could he have done something so "outstanding"?
One of his ministers began to tremble with guilt, while Cheng Zhijie, standing beside him, said nonchalantly, "What's wrong? Why are you trembling? Are you cold?!"
Feng Deyi (gritting his teeth): Having you is my blessing!
Li Shimin's gaze then fell upon Feng Deyi, who had suddenly knelt on the ground.
Great, it turns out it was you all along!
……
Lin Ke first checked the accuracy rate on the backend before saying, "Congratulations, Master Fang, for answering correctly. You have received one nutritional potion."
Fang Xuanling: Your subject has fortunately fulfilled your mission!
"Other correct answers will receive double the points and a potion."
"It's okay if you don't answer correctly. The system will update the inventory at noon, and you can buy potions or other items in the shop."
On the other side, Yang Yuhuan had been fleeing with Li Longji and was not eating or sleeping well. In addition, she was in a state of panic after being blamed. Lin Ke also felt that if she went back now, she might be doomed. It would be better for her to go to her bedroom to rest and sleep for a while.
