Chapter 958 Ruxue (Two in One)
this day.
When the morning sun rises, the world changes drastically.
When everyone woke up in the morning, they heard a sound as vast as falling from the sky.
"Heaven's destiny will return, and the emperor will return to his throne!"
The people left their dilapidated homes one after another,
Stepping on the messy bluestone road,
They looked towards where the sound came from,
I saw in the direction of Qingdu, a multicolored auspicious cloud in the shape of a dragon and a phoenix. The morning glow was like fire, almost like a fairy.
...
Xia Xiaoman kept crying, crying and crying.
Everyone was watching Xia Xiaoman crying.
No one stepped forward to dissuade.
Even though, the commander felt from the bottom of his heart that it was inappropriate for a female emperor and emperor who was destined to cry in front of so many people, but he couldn't stop it.
Although it was difficult for him to empathize with this kind of sadness, it was rendered vividly by the crying.
A vision from the sky surrounded her, but it seemed to have nothing to do with her.
Until the light and shadow dissipated, she was still digging the soil on the ground obsessively, as if she wanted to dig out Senior Brother Lin Yi from the soil.
Even if it is not alive, the dead can be buried properly!
Even though Xia Xiaoman was a Golden Core cultivator, she forgot to protect her body with zhenqi, and let the rough soil grind her fingers until they were bloody.
In the end, Xia Xiaoman fell into a deep sleep.
after the war,
The Southern King Army disarmed and surrendered one after another.
They have no reason to fight.
This series of celestial phenomena wiped out what little fighting spirit they had left.
The Human Sovereign came into the world and Xia Xingchen was dead, so it would be meaningless to fight any longer.
That is the Emperor, the Emperor of Heaven, who will compete with him?
The sky is high and the earth is wide,
Destiny is the greatest.
Who dares to slander the emperor's destiny bestowed by heaven?
When Xia Xingchen came to the throne, he also had the luck of the emperor.
But Xia Xingchen was dead.
Many soldiers of the Southern King Army secretly hated, if Xia Xingchen hadn't died, would this world be a little different?
Will their lives have completely different circumstances?
But the reality is, there aren't that many "ifs".
Winners and losers, benevolence and righteousness, right and wrong, become empty in a blink of an eye.
Some people may have hatred in their hearts, but with Lin Yi's death, their hatred has lost its target.
Lin Yi killed many people, many, many, many.
Thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands.
There are too many to count.
But at the very end, Lin Yi used his life to bear all the hatred, blood and tears, and was annihilated in the world. He used his blood to cleanse the lead and bring a new tomorrow to the Daqian Dynasty.
This Daqian dynasty, with the death of the big devil Lin, will also usher in a peaceful and prosperous age.
...
Xia Xiaoman sleeps through the night.
this night,
She had a dream.
In the dream, there are mountains, water, villas, gardens, and a crane next to it.
And... Lin Yi.
Senior brother Lin Yi is surrounded by cranes, floating like a fairy... BBQ.
It was clearly a dream, but the fragrance made the corners of Junior Sister's mouth involuntarily drooling.
"Hi, Junior Sister."
Lin Yi in the dream was just like the one they first met in the Golden Temple four years ago.
At that time, Lin Yi was a high-spirited young man, and she was the eldest princess who had shaved her head and ran away from home.
Xia Xiaoman rushed forward.
In the dream, Xia Xiaoman was crying, hugging Senior Lin Yi and talking a lot.
Brother Lin Yi just patted her forehead gently, poked Xia Xiaoman's heart lightly, and pointed there.
"I left something for you, it will protect you for me."
Xia Xiaoman looked down at the indentation of her bulge, Xia Fei's cheeks.
"You rascal!"
"Believe me, I will not die. One day, I will appear in front of you on the colorful clouds."
"real?"
"When did senior brother lie to you?"
"Hook!"
"Then it's settled, when you are invincible with your sword, it will be the time when you and I meet again."
...
Nobody noticed.
That night, on the roof of Yingxue Pavilion, there was a scarlet bat shadow, which disappeared in a flash.
...
After the war in Qingdu, everything was destroyed.
Many houses collapsed in the aftermath of the monk's great battle, and the streets extending in all directions were covered with rubble and smashed to pieces.
The Southern King's Army was confiscated and divided into the Sixth Army, and was temporarily treated as a miscellaneous soldier.
With 300,000 miscellaneous soldiers, they are physically strong, and the dirty work of rebuilding Qingdu is no problem.
Everyone's faces were filled with the joy of surviving after a catastrophe.
Everyone knows that the war that lasted for several years is finally over.
After dinner, the common people were all talking about the sorrow of the war.
Of course, these topics can never be separated from a man who can be called a great devil-Lin Yi.
Almost by himself, Lin Yi set off a bloody storm in the secular world. In the end, Xia Xiaoman, the human emperor whose real name was Tiannv, the eldest princess, and the fate of destiny, cut him down with a single sword, which pleased everyone's hearts.
...
The important court officials who should have been "assassinated" came back to life one after another.
It turned out that one night, in their sleep, they were all taken away by a hideous assassin and trapped in a dungeon.
The location of the dungeon is Chang'an Palace.
But this morning, the prison door of the dungeon opened by itself, and the old courtiers walked out of the ground and saw the sun again. The courtiers burst into tears. When they learned that it was the eldest princess Xia Xiaoman who killed Lin Yi with a sword, they wiped out Lin Yi for the world. These wicked people shouted "The first emperor appeared, God bless you."
When they walked out of the dungeon, they accidentally discovered that the empress dowager, concubine Shu, who once had all the power in the court, had died in the courtyard.
Concubine Shu's death was strange and unpredictable, and finally added a heavy stroke to the numerous murders of "Apocalyptic Assassin Lin Yi".
Anyway, that's it.
The courtiers were still there, and after a few days of rest, they resumed their duties.
The internal affairs of the Dagan Dynasty were re-operated, and garrisons were sent to various places to re-control every city within the territory of Dagan.
later,
The Prince of Xi, who was originally the King of Zhengbei and now became the Prince of the West, became disheartened after learning what happened in Qingdu, and voluntarily handed over his military power, and became a monk in Ping'an Temple.
Dharma name: Chunhan.
In terms of seniority, he is Wang Xiaohu's younger brother.
After Lin Yi's death, Wang Xiaohu was so sad that he recited the "Sutra of Rebirth" for Lin Yi in the monastery for 81 days without ever stepping out of the meditation hall.
...
half year later.
January one.
a new Year.
The newly renovated Jinluan Palace is magnificent.
Xia Xiaoman wore a dragon and phoenix brocade robe, a crown on his head, and light makeup. He rode on a giant white tiger with a height of several feet. Behind him, a hundred palace maids followed him up the ladder to the sky.
I saw that Xia Xiaoman's face had already washed away the immaturity of the past. As he walked, the majesty of the emperor was beyond words.
Under the witness of all the civil and military officials, Xia Xiaoman, the lord of the Dagan Kingdom, announced to the world:
"From today on, Zhenping, the eldest daughter of the Xia family, will fulfill the fate and the will of the people, and ascend to the throne of emperor."
"I am the Daqian Dynasty, the fifteenth generation lord!"
"From today onwards, the new calendar will be launched, and it will be the first year of the Zhenping calendar, and the world will be amnesty, and the Fu will be exempted for three years!"
"I am, Emperor Zhenping!"
"My imperial seal, the White Tiger Spirit Beast, is the holy beast of Dagan protecting the country! Seeing the holy beast protecting the country is like seeing the Son of Heaven!"
...
The process of the Empress' ascension to the throne was extremely smooth.
Whether it is the will of the common people, or the wishes of the officials, or those who witnessed the vision that fell from the sky that night, they know that the empress' ascension to the throne is the general trend and the destiny. During the whole process, and even when it was announced to the world, there was hardly much opposition sound.
Lin Yi has done enough, enough.
Before he died, he paved the bumpy road for the Empress to become a flat road.
The second year of the true Ping calendar.
Emperor Zhenping burned the history books and erased all the deeds about "Lin Yi" from history.
The second year of the true calendar, June.
Emperor Zhenping said that "the country will be safe with literature", regardless of family status or qualifications, but those with great talents will be entrusted with high-ranking officials and treated with generous salaries. For a time, the imperial examinations of the Dagan Dynasty were booming, and the common people shouted, "Reading well and reading well is the only way to change your destiny."
The real calendar is three years.
Emperor Zhenping changed the laws of the country, completely abolished the "vassal king system", set up a "provincial political department" and a "provincial military department", and then subdivided them into different levels, and divided military power and internal affairs.
same year,
Emperor Zhenping went on a tour to the south, personally took the boy and widow left by the Southern Prince back to Qingdu, treated them with courtesy, taught them poetry, and taught them the art of war. Later history books recorded this incident, saying that Empress Zhenping "disregarded the previous suspicions, and her heart was more than that of a sage".
In the sixth year of the Zhenping calendar, Emperor Zhenping encouraged the development of the shipping industry. She personally incorporated the Black Shark Gang, which was like a mess of sand, and established the "Sea Shipping Department" to communicate with other countries through Niuhezhou and Nanzhanbuzhou.
In the ten years of the Zhenping calendar, the shipping industry and smelting technology of the Dagan Dynasty reached their peak.
In the twelfth year of the Zhenping calendar, Emperor Zhenping discovered "black oil" and set up wells for exploitation. After that, overseas countries have discovered the magical effect of "black oil" and exploited it one after another.
In the fifteenth year of the Zhenping calendar, the production method of "black powder" in Nanzhan Buzhou was introduced to Daqian.
In the 17th year of the Zhenping calendar, an inventor in Hezhou, Xiniu, invented the "iron ox machine" with the help of "black oil". .
In the 20th year of the Zhenping calendar, Xuanmen retired and was no longer born, and monks gradually became illusory legends.
thirty years,
Tools such as "iron carts", "iron horses", "huotongs" and "thunder cannons" gradually entered the people's field of vision.
Later, some people gradually named the "iron cow machine" as "internal combustion engine".
The technology of "Iron Horse" has become more and more proficient.
In the 31st year of the Zhenping calendar, the first pure fuel car in history that did not need to be drawn by animals was born.
In the 50th year of the Zhenping calendar, official historians recorded that Emperor Zhenping was more than a few years old, his hair was like silver frost, his flour was like a child, and his skin was as white as snow. He could be called a "sage from heaven".
...
Fifty-two years of the true calendar.
The empress abdicated, and the 16th generation head of state was registered under the name "Changyun".
It is said that Xia Changyun is the descendant of Xia Xingchen's blood, and belongs to the true royal orthodoxy.
Empress Shinpei abdicated on July 7 of the same year.
An elegant and cool woman with snowy white hair, rosy eyebrows and eyes, dressed in white plain clothes, stood not far from the Emperor's Tomb, in front of an unnamed tombstone.
No one knew whose tombstone it was, or even who it was commemorating.
But the courtiers all knew that every July 7th, the empress would sit here alone until dawn.
At this moment, Xia Xiaoman no longer wears a dragon robe or a golden crown. After she took down the throne, the imperial majesty disappeared in an instant. At this moment, she is just an ordinary woman whose youth has passed away.
"Except for my white hair, my face doesn't look old at all. Brother, why do you want to protect Xiaoman like this after you die?"
Xia Xiaoman gently held her full chest, she vaguely remembered the dream after Lin Yi's death, as if Lin Yi's finger was right there.
She would rather believe that this was not a dream, because she could clearly feel that there was a scabbard occupying that position when her heart was beating.
That's... brother's scabbard.
"In my life, let Daqian return to a peaceful and prosperous age. Xiaoman will live up to his father, his son, and the people of the world. I, Xia Xiaoman, have no complaints or regrets." Xia Xiaoman smiled and looked at the The wordless tablet was slapped out with one palm, revealing a long sword that was as white as snow.
"I'm sorry, Xue'er, because your body is stained with the blood of your senior brother, I have been unwilling to face you, and I have been unwilling to face... myself."
With a flick of the wrist, Xia Xiaoman held the Frost Snow Sword in her hand, which she had not seen for fifty years. She felt the sense of blood connection on the Frost Snow Sword, closed her eyes, and remained silent for a long time.
after silence,
She turned around suddenly, bowed her head and smiled. There stood a cute kitten.
"Sister Chuchu, do you want to go to the East China Sea with me?"
"Meow, I won't go." Bai Chuchu shook her head, "I promised young master that I will protect you for fifty years, but now I have given you two years for nothing." It means: You still owe us two years.
"Oh, the world is so big, if we can meet again in the future, if you need it, I will die."
"Then, goodbye!"
The cloud follows the dragon and the wind follows the tiger. After a gust of wind, the tiger, who pretended to be a cat, disappeared in place.
Xia Xiaoman flicked the flying sword, and Yujian flew into the sky, heading straight to the sky, all the way to the east.
Since then,
In Qingdu, there is no Emperor Zhenping, nor Xia Xiaoman.
The sacred beast protecting the country of the Daqian Dynasty disappeared from the world at the same time.
...
Three days later.
The coast of the East China Sea.
Fifty years ago, this was just a small fishing village, but fifty years later, it has become a prosperous port city with a population of nearly 200,000——Linxian City.
Legend has it that many years ago, there was a fairy house here, and there was a cliff named "Wangxian Cliff".
Xia Xiaoman fell on the top of Wangxian Cliff, where the terrain is so high that it is difficult for ordinary people to reach.
"The villain Xia Xiaoman, please forgive me and return to the Heavenly Sword Gate!"
Xia Xiaoman knelt on the top of Wangxian Cliff and knelt for seven days.
The wind blows and the sun shines, the rain falls and the clouds disappear.
seven days later,
A woman with white hair suddenly appeared in front of Xia Xiaoman who was still kneeling.
"You don't regret it?"
"The disciple does not regret it."
Xia Xiaoman didn't dare to look up.
"Why?"
"From now on, Xia Xiaoman seeks the Tao with all his heart, and only wants to reach the sky with a sword, which is invincible and proves the way of longevity."
"What a 'one sword soaring to the sky, no one can beat'." The headmaster sighed softly, and she looked deeply at Xia Xiaoman who was kneeling on the ground: "In this case, your past is over, and the relationship between you and the world has been broken. Huang Xia Xiaoman is dead, from today onwards, you are no longer Xia Xiaoman, but an ordinary Heavenly Sword Sect cultivator, a direct disciple of... the deity."
"The disciple understands that he is willing to abandon all the past and cut off the world with his sword. Please master...give me a name."
The Supreme Sect Leader closed his eyes and meditated, muttering to himself: "Someone gave me an order, and I will have two disciples in my life. The morning will be like frost, and the evening will be like snow." The Supreme Sect Leader opened his eyes coldly: "In that case, From today, you are... Xia Ruxue."
Xia Xiaoman, no, Xia Ruxue with a calm expression, even she who has been a great emperor for fifty years, couldn't help trembling the moment she heard the word "Xia Ruxue", which was deliberately sealed by her. The past came flooding back to my mind like a tide.
next second,
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Xia Ruxue kowtowed hard... tears streaming down her face.
ah... ah... ah.
Xia Ruxue was crying in her heart.
"Xia Ruxue...has met Master!"
It turned out that she was Xia Ruxue.
