On the tenth day of the fifth lunar month, Chang'an, the imperial city of Tang Dynasty.

The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the entire imperial city looked extremely quiet and majestic in the night.

Teams of imperial city soldiers patrolled the various avenues and alleys in the imperial city, their iron boots clanging on the ground, full of deterrent force.

Snapped!

The jade bowl fell to the ground and shattered, the potion was scattered all over the ground, and the hot mist that was still emitting was steaming.

The two young eunuchs sat down on the ground with pale faces, their lips trembling, and they couldn't say a word for a long time.

One of the little eunuchs immediately crawled towards the door of the bedroom in a dog crawling style, pulled the door open with all his strength, and screamed to the outside: "Come on! Come on! Your Majesty is dead! You are dead!" !"

His voice wasn't too loud, but in this silent night, it was extraordinarily clear and sober.

Suddenly, a lot of footsteps sounded, and many imperial city soldiers and palace maids with torches came running quickly, including some old eunuchs who were invincible.

"What's the matter? What happened? Don't talk nonsense to me, be careful I will tear your mouth!" An old eunuch with snow-white powder on his face and red lips pointed at the orchid. The little eunuch who opened the door to announce the news scolded.

"Eunuch, I didn't talk nonsense, Your Majesty is really not angry."

"Stop talking nonsense, get out of here, if you get in the way, hurry up and notify the ten ancestors." The old eunuch kicked the young eunuch's body away, and immediately ran into the bedroom.

It's not going to be peaceful tonight.

Outside the imperial city, Qin Tianjian.

A black-haired man in a wheelchair was looking at the stars from the observatory. He didn't look left and right like other stargazers, but focused all his eyes on one star.

Suddenly, the star dimmed instantly. The man shook his head and said to himself, "I'm exhausted, I can't force it anymore."

Turning his head to look at the location of the imperial city, in the eyes of this person, there is a nine-clawed golden dragon hovering above the imperial city.

The Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon, which was supposed to be proud of the world, looked extremely weak at this moment. On its body, ten black bats were biting its body tightly, but it was a very strange scene.

"Soon." The man said something strange.

As soon as the words fell, the nine-clawed golden dragon in the night sky disappeared instantly, turning into countless golden fragments and falling to the ground. The ten bats took the opportunity to frantically devour those golden fragments.

At the same time, on the east side of Chang'an and inside the imperial city, a red dragon and a purple dragon slowly appeared. When the two dragons appeared, the golden fragments after the nine-clawed golden dragon dissipated automatically split into two strands and flew into the Inside the bodies of these two dragons.

"It's not too bad, at least Datang still has two real dragons as queens. As long as they can ascend the throne, Datang will still not fall. It's a pity that with the ten permanent attendants, even if the new emperor ascends the throne, I'm afraid he won't be able to escape. You will end up being accused of being a puppet emperor."

The man stroked his beard, lost in thought.

Outside Chang'an City, on a hill.

An old man in long robes looked at the dead nine-clawed golden dragon above Chang'an, and said with a smile: "The Great Tang's power is exhausted, and now it's lively. With the only two weak dragons remaining in the royal family, we can only I'm afraid we won't be able to stabilize the Kyushu in this world."

Chapter 205 [205] Rising Winds and Clouds

The old man took a few more glances, then suddenly stretched out his hand and whistled, and immediately a white dove fell from the sky and landed on his wrist.

"The signs of the decline of the Tang Dynasty have appeared, and the world is about to start to be chaotic." The old man touched the pigeon's back, took out a yellow scarf from his bosom and tied it to the pigeon's leg, and then let it go, allowing it to fly high into the sky quickly.

……

The capital of the western state of Shu, the land of Shu has many mountains and valleys, and the terrain is extremely rugged. It has always been a natural moat in the west of Kyushu.

In a cave in a mountain.

A white-haired old woman sat quietly on the mud platform holding a long staff with a crescent-shaped tip and a short staff with a red sun-shaped tip. Suddenly, the stone platform began to shatter visible to the naked eye. , a large number of cracks emerged.

The old woman opened her eyes with joy in an instant: "The real dragon is dead! The world is in chaos, and I'm waiting for the opportunity of the divine sect to come!"

……

A pavilion somewhere in the south.

Eighteen women each held a musical instrument and were playing a moving song. Suddenly, a shooting star flashed across the sky. The eighteen women stopped their movements one after another, with weird smiles on their faces.

"The emperor's star has fallen, and the Destiny has risen again, why can't I become the new Destiny." The young woman holding the flute laughed.

"I have arranged for many years, but now I can start to exert my strength. Right now, it still depends on who is willing to be the first shot in the world's uprising." Said the plump woman holding a pipa.

"Even if the Tang Dynasty is going to die, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. Whoever dares to be the first to revolt will have to face the history of the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years. We must arrange some reckless men for this matter." Move first to disturb the court's sight." said the tall and thin woman holding the erhu.

"The ten permanent attendants have controlled the imperial court for many years. Some officials from all over the country have long been unable to stand it. They have made some small moves in private, otherwise they will expose their conspiracy in advance and expose it to the eyes of the world. In this way, these people can be regarded as If you don’t want to do it, you have to do it, and you have to do your best to fight Datang, as long as I support and help a few, I can reap the benefits of the fisherman.” Said the fat woman who was touching the zither.

"I have to go against it! Good good good good!"

For a while, there was a lot of laughter in the pavilion. Although there were many people discussing it, but after listening carefully, it felt that there was only one person talking to himself from the beginning to the end, which was very strange.

……

The death of the emperor is a major event that shocked the world, and it cannot be concealed.

Within two days, the news had spread to Jiangnan. When Liu Xian, the governor of Yangzhou Prefecture, heard the news, he was shocked.

It was too sudden, the emperor died suddenly, and the new emperor was waiting to succeed to the throne. This is the most restless time for Datang.

Everyone knows that Tang Dynasty is currently suffering from internal and external troubles. Liu Xian has long wanted to rebel, and he has prepared a lot of things in private. For example, he asked Liu Zhizhang to dig gold mines in the depths of Meteor Mountain, just to bring him gold as an armament.

With money, you can build weapons and armor, recruit soldiers, and buy food and grass, all of which are the necessary conditions for rebellion.

But after all, Liu Xian has the intention of rebelling, Liu Xian is still very cautious, and it is true that he wants to rebel. If he jumps out and declares to the whole world that he is going to rebel at this moment, Liu Xian still does not have the courage.

He can be a follower, but he will never be a leader.

The study of the governor's mansion.

Liu Xian sat on a chair with a teacup in his hand, and asked Tong Yan, his counselor next to him, "Mr. Tong, I don't know why I always feel flustered about the emperor's death. Can you hide what we did? "

"My lord, there is no need to panic. We have been walking on thin ice for so many years, and we dare not relax at all. Any way is to cover up and hide it very well, and there is no possibility of problems." Tong Yan comforted.

Everyone will feel good about rebelling and seizing the throne, but if you really do it yourself, it will be another experience.

"Once Emperor Yong Le dies, the Ten Permanent Attendants will become even more unscrupulous. Once the crown prince takes power, he will obediently become a puppet in their hands. According to the current situation in this country, there will definitely be people who can't help but jump out to rebel. At that time, there will be such a stab. After passing through the hornet's nest, the situation in the world is changing rapidly, and everyone will start to express their opinions in the team." Liu Xian looked at the map of Tang Dynasty on the table, and fell into deep thought.

As the governor of Yangzhou Prefecture, he is naturally able to obtain things that ordinary people cannot understand, and this military map is one of them.

I saw that the above detailed records described the terrain of the south, and the layout of various passes, bridges, and military camps were clearly displayed on the map, which can be seen at a glance.

Stretching his fingers to slide along a route, Liu Xiangang was immersed in his fantasies after the rebellion, when suddenly someone rushed in from outside the door, and shouted in panic: "Father! Father is not good!"

Liu Xian frowned, looked up, and saw that it was his eldest son Liu Wei.

Liu Xian has always hated other people's bluffing, so he taught his children to learn to be calm and not to panic no matter what happens, because a decision maker can only make the best choice when he is calm .
