Chapter 1 Crossing the Millennium
"What's wrong with Langjun? Yesterday I saw the young lady coming back with her husband back in a panic and kept falling asleep. Today, Ah Lang kept losing his temper. The eldest lady wiped her tears. I don't know what happened. The young lady also hid at home and didn't dare to go anywhere. I really don't know when the young lady woke up. What should I do if there are any problems?"
"It's also strange. I heard that the little lady said that the husband had met a ghost. She was in the forest behind the mountain, and suddenly she was out of sight. Her husband was anxious and was afraid that she would go out to find the doctor to see him."
"Don't talk nonsense, why did your husband hit a ghost? He would be able to hear it, and he would slap his mouth."
"Gudong..."
There was a sound from the room, as if something had fallen to the ground.
In an instant, the red cloth was lifted up, and two girls in their teens came in one after another.
The scene in the room stunned them. The husband fell from the bed to the ground, his face turned pale, his eyes staring at the two of them tightly, his mouth wide open, and he really looked like he was being deviled.
It is a good thing for the husband to wake up, but this way scares the two young maids.
"Go and call Alang and the eldest lady, and say that the husband is awake."
The slightly taller girl spoke while quickly climbing up the young man and sitting on the bed.
After a while, the sound of rapid footsteps came, and two people came in one after another. The first one was a middle-aged man, wearing a gray round-necked robe and shirt, a square face, with a fat and fat face, with some red lines in his eyes, obviously not having a good rest. Behind the middle-aged man was a woman in her thirties, very rich, wearing a skirt suit, and a pair of red phoenix eyes were red and swollen. I don’t know how long it took to cry.
The young man was helped up by the big girl and had already lay on the bed, but he had no expression yet, and his face was still pale.
When the woman who entered the house saw the young man's appearance, she burst into tears. She just held back and didn't cry out loud. She quickly walked to the bed, sat next to her, and held the young man's hand.
The middle-aged man looked much calmer and spoke to the woman.
"Don't cry, I'm scared Nakkun. I've woken up, that's a good thing."
While talking, the man reached out to touch the young man's head.
Under the instinctive trend, the young man turned his head to avoid the hand and looked at the two people in front of him.
"Where am I, who are you, what's wrong with me?"
A look of horror appeared on the middle-aged man's face, and he waved his hand to signal the two girls to withdraw.
The woman holding the young man's hand finally cried out.
"What's wrong with Nakhon? Why did it turn out like this? How is this good..."
The middle-aged man bent down slightly and stared at the young man's eyes carefully, with clouds on his face.
"Nakhonkhon, what happened to you in the woods? Can you tell me about it? Don't be afraid, you have returned home and there is no danger."
The young man thought about opening his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, and his mind was very confused.
A beam of light suddenly flashed in front of his eyes, and the young man's mind became dizzy, his body became soft, and he fainted again.
......
When he woke up again, a bitter smile appeared on Li Rupei's face, and many thoughts penetrated into his mind. These thoughts came from the original body. Coincidentally, the name of this body was also called Li Rupei, whose courtesy name was Nakkun.
He traveled through time, and to the sixth year of Qianfu at the end of the Tang Dynasty, that is, in 879 AD, there were still twenty-eight years before the complete demise of the Tang Dynasty.
This is probably God's will.
This is a chaotic world, where human life is like grass, and the historically rumored situation of people eating people is very common in this era.
This year, the peasant uprising led by Wang Xianzhi and Huang Chao was in full swing. Although Wang Xianzhi had been killed in battle, the peasant uprising army grew stronger. In more than a year, the army led by Huang Chao could occupy the Tang Dynasty capital Chang'an and the eastern capital Luoyang.
It was also in this era that with the help of the Huang Chao uprising and the rebellion, the various vassal states gradually grew, and the ruling power of the Tang court completely fell apart. The emperor became a puppet, and the eunuchs and vassal states made their debut, fighting each other, and the Tang Empire finally reached the verge of destruction.
Traveling through such an era can only be considered unlucky, but what annoyed Li Rupei even more was his identity.
Li Rupei's identity is very special, and the identity of the body he traveled through time is extraordinary.
Li Rupei is the youngest son of King Li Qi of Wei. Li Qi of Tang, the eldest son of Emperor Yizong of Tang, and the elder brother of Emperor Xizong of Tang, Li Qi of the present emperor, that is, Li Rupei is the nephew of the present emperor.
In the 14th year of Xiantong, in 873 AD, Emperor Yizong of Tang, Li Yan died. Li Yan had a total of eight sons. According to age, the eldest son, Li Qi, King of Wei, Li Qi, and King of Liang, Li Qi, were very likely to take over the position of emperor. The throne was not passed down to young people. Li Qi was the heir to the throne, but unfortunately, the Tang Dynasty had long declined and everything was controlled by eunuchs. The excessive debauchery of Emperor Yizong of Tang led to a complete extinction of the fire of hope that was ignited during Xuanzong's reign, and the Tang Empire fell into an infinite abyss.
With the support of Liu Xingshen, Han Wenyu and others, the fifth son of Emperor Xizong of Tang, Li Yan, who was only twelve years old, inherited the throne and became Emperor Xizong of Tang. After inheriting the throne, he changed his name to Li Yan.
The main reason why eunuchs wanted to support Li Yan to ascend the throne was that Li Yan was young and was more controllable.
After the Ganlu Temple Incident, the power of eunuchs gradually increased, gradually controlled the royal family, and even arbitrarily enthroned and abolished the emperor.
When Li Yan became the emperor, the eunuch did not forget Li Qi and Li Lin. These two people understood a lot of things. If they continued to live, they would probably become the biggest threat to the eunuchs and needed to be eliminated. The safest deaths were. As for King Li Ji of Shu and King Li Wei of Ying, including Li Bao, Li Ye and Li Yi below, they were still young and there was no threat.
In the late Tang Dynasty, it was very painful to be born in the royal family. There might not be any problems with food, clothing, housing and transportation, but personal safety was not guaranteed at all. I was trembling all day long and could die in the power game in the palace at any time. Li Qi and Li Yichun knew the dangers in the palace. When the new emperor had just ascended the throne and the eunuchs had not had time to do it, they quickly fled from the capital Chang'an and hid.
It is not so easy to escape the pursuit of eunuchs. After Li Qi and Li Lin left the capital Chang'an, they escaped each other, had no connection with each other, and they did not dare to reveal their identities and were cautious. Despite this, they still faced risks at any time.
God couldn't stand it anymore, so he helped Li Qi and Li Lin.
The second year after Emperor Xizong of Tang Dynasty Li Yan ascended the throne, that is, the first year of Qianfu, in 874 AD, a large peasant uprising led by Wang Xianzhi and Huang Chao broke out in the Tang Dynasty. The peasant uprising was very powerful, and most of the energy of the court was involved. What was even more serious was that the vassal states in various places were confronted with the court openly and secretly. Although they were ordered to send troops to eliminate the peasant uprising, they had their own thoughts, worked but did not work hard, and preserved their strength, which aroused dissatisfaction from the court, but they could do nothing.
The result of this directly led to the unprecedented growth of the peasant uprising army.
Wang Xianzhi, one of the leaders of the peasant uprising army, died in Huangmei in the fifth year of Qianfu. The court could have taken this opportunity to unite the vassal states in various places and destroy the peasant uprising army in one fell swoop, but Emperor Xizong of Tang did not have such ability. On the contrary, another leader Huang Chao integrated Wang Xianzhi's defeated army and swept through many places in the Tang Dynasty. His power became stronger and stronger, and he was about to pose a fatal threat to the Tang Dynasty court.
Naturally, the eunuchs in the court would not be busy chasing Li Qi and Li Lin. They would do their best to deal with Huang Chao's army, fight with the vassal states in various places, and seize more power.
Unfortunately, Li Qi and Li Lin were not very lucky. There were rumors in the capital. In order to be able to rebel legitimately, Huang Chao was looking for Li Qi and Li Lin. Regardless of whether the rumor was true or false, it would be a fatal blow to both of them.
Liu Xingshen, the lieutenant of the left and right Shence Army who supported Emperor Xizong of Tang to ascend the throne, was later named Duke and retired gloriously. The eunuch who succeeded Emperor Xizong of Tang was the most trusted eunuch.
Tian Lingzi has always been with Emperor Xizong of Tang, and was even respected as "Afu" by Emperor Xizong of Tang. Because he has been with Emperor Xizong of Tang since he was a child, he is familiar with the affairs in the palace. After taking power, Tian Lingzi will not forget Li Qi and Li Lin. He is even more afraid that the two of them will fall into Huang Chao's hands.
Under such circumstances, the situation faced by King Li Qi of Wei and King Li Lin of Liang was unprecedentedly dangerous.
It is said that traveling to the body of the emperor's nephew is worth celebrating. Unfortunately, after knowing these situations, Li Rupei was willing to travel to the ordinary people by himself, at least to survive well.
