Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Chapter 3954 Chapter 3956 [Time flies]

 Five years later, the emperor died, and the thirteenth prince ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.

Compared to the previous emperor, the thirteenth prince was not only cruel and violent, extravagant and lustful, but also greedy for beauty and indulged in enjoyment.

 Therefore, after he ascended the throne, in order to satisfy his own desires, he imposed excessive taxes and extorted money from the people, which resulted in the people being in dire straits, mourning all over the land, and civil unrest.

 The surrounding small countries had already accumulated a lot of dissatisfaction with the Song Dynasty, and they also took the opportunity to invade the border cities of the Song Dynasty. For a time, the dynasty was in trouble and was on the verge of collapse.

Xiang Nan knew that troubled times were coming, so after discussing with Tie Ruyun, Tie Xinlan and others, he moved his family to Duwang Valley. In this way, they can not only escape the war, but also reunite with their relatives.

 …

　　Ten years later, the thirteenth prince who ascended the throne died of extravagance, drunkenness, wine and meat, and all-night carousing. He finally emptied his body and died.

 After the death of the thirteenth prince, his seven-year-old son ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor. Because he was young and ignorant, he was unable to take charge of the government, so the government was controlled by powerful ministers, which also made the court further dark, corrupt and precarious. This further aroused civil uprisings and wars.

During this period, Xiang Nan, Tie Xinlan, Xiao Yu'er, Su Ying and others still lived in seclusion in Duwang Valley, opening up their own fields to grow vegetables and grain.

 They have no army, bandits, refugees, or rebels who dare to come here, so it is a rare place of peace in troubled times.

Xiang Nan and the others are self-sufficient and self-reliant here, and they can also practice martial arts together. I dare not say that I am as happy as a god, but at least I have enough food and clothing.

 After another five years, the twelve-year-old emperor was deposed by his powerful ministers and a new emperor was established. The new king is the grandson of the Thirteenth Prince's brother and is also of royal blood, but he is only three years old.

As a result, the powerful ministers continued to control the government, and the Song Dynasty became more and more uneasy. There are rebels everywhere in the east, south, west, north, and middle, and there are refugees everywhere.

The so-called heroes in troubled times rise from all directions, and if you have soldiers, you are the grass-headed king. Even Jiang Fan and Hua Zifang have gathered a group of people to prepare for success in troubled times.

 Neither Xiang Nan nor Xiao Yu'er objected to this.

Xiang Nan has long understood that children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, so don’t worry about them. Xiao Yu'er is born with a big heart and puts fun first. For him, fighting for world dominance is nothing more than a new game.

 …

 After Jiang Fan and Hua Zifang raised their troops, they fought well and quickly conquered a piece of territory, becoming a grass-head king in troubled times.

 They then continued to attack, and their territory became larger and larger, becoming a famous overlord in the Hunan-Huaihe area.

 During this period, Li Dazui and Yin Jiuyou, two of the four villains, passed away one after another, which made Xiao Yu'er very sad.

 In his heart, he has always regarded Li Dazui and Yin Jiuyou as his biological fathers. Now that they have passed away, it is naturally difficult for him to accept it.

 Two years later, the armies of Jiang Fan and Hua Zifang had already reached the south of the Yangtze River, and their power had become very large. During this period, Tie Ruyun, the crazy lion, also died of illness, making Tie Xinlan burst into tears.

 Following the death of Du Sha and Haha'er. At this time, Jiang Fan and Hua Zifang had unified Jiangnan and occupied Jinling. Hua Zifang then proclaimed himself emperor, and the founding title was Han. In the new year of Tianyuan, Jiang Fan was granted the title of King of Side by Side.

 Xiang Nan was granted the title of Supreme Emperor, Tie Xinlan was granted the title of Empress Dowager, Xiao Yuer was granted the title of King Jing, Su Ying was granted the title of Princess Jing, etc. In short, they were given great rewards, and chickens and dogs ascended to heaven.

Xiang Nan completely scorned this and even wrote a letter to scold the two brats. As soon as they conquered the Hunan-Huaihe and Jiangnan areas, they started to bluster and proclaimed themselves emperor. It was just nonsense.

You must know that there are a total of thirty-six roads in the world, and there are only two roads in Xianghuai and Jiangnan, and they are still battlegrounds for military strategists. So it’s really hard to say whether it can be defended. Because since ancient times, except for Zhu Yuanzhang, almost no one has raised troops to fight from the south to the north. After all, the Northerners are more powerful and have the advantage of cavalry.

That's why two brats have just conquered two territories and are eager to become emperor and dominate. It's simply ridiculous.

However, Hua Zifang and Jiang Fan are currently in the rebellious stage, and they have been fighting quite smoothly after raising their troops, so they do not listen to Xiang Nan at all.

As a result, three years later, the Han Dynasty established by the two men was attacked by three other forces. In the end, the main force was wiped out, the capital was breached, and the former power was reduced to nothing.

 Fortunately, Xiang Nan was quite capable and rode a giant crane to rescue Hua Zifang, Jiang Fan and their beloved concubines and children, saving them from martyrdom for their country.

“You brats, I told you to stop quarreling, build walls high, store up food, and claim the title of king slowly. You have only conquered so much territory, but you can’t wait to claim the title of emperor and ancestor. You are really brave.

It's okay now, why don't you talk to me again? Xiang Nan scolded the two of them.

Hua Zifang and Jiang Fan had nothing to say at this time.

 The two of them thought they could create a career, but unfortunately it disappeared in the end.

 Fortunately, the green hills are still there, so they don’t have to worry about running out of firewood. Although they have lost the throne, they still have a life at least. It’s not bad to be a rich man or a great hero.

 …

 During these three years, Chang Baicao and Su Rushi also passed away one after another.

 In the following two years, Yan Nantian also passed away. After his death, Xiang Nan buried his ashes next to the tombs of Jiang Feng and Hua Yuenu, so that they could be brothers together under Jiuquan.

Not long after Yan Nantian died, Xiang Nan received a letter from Yihua Palace, which was sent to him by Lianxing, hoping that he would come to Yihua Palace.

Xiang Nan brought Tie Xinlan, Hua Zifang and others to the Yihua Palace. They saw that the originally magnificent Yihua Palace was now covered with white damasks, and all the brightly colored flowers were gone and changed to White and yellow.

Xiang Nan felt a little uneasy.

Sure enough, when he arrived at the palace, he saw Yaoyue's coffin was placed in the palace, and Lianxing was leading people to offer incense.

 “Second Master…First Master, she…” Xiang Nan asked in loss of voice.

"Master, she passed away, but don't be sad, she passed away peacefully." Lianxing waved her hand.

More than thirty years ago, after Yao Yue drank Wangchuan water and was hypnotized by Dafa, she had forgotten Jiang Feng, Hua Wuque, Xiao Yu'er and others, so during the following period, she basically had no worries. It's about practicing martial arts and managing Yihua Palace.

 Also because she had no worries in her heart, she lived quite happily in the second half of her life, so she died a good death.

"That's good." Xiang Nan nodded, and then took his wife, Hua Zifang and others to kneel down and salute Yao Yue.

The so-called death is the most important thing. No matter how much hatred there is in the past, people are dead when they die, and there is no need to continue to struggle.

"Master, I have come to see you with my wife and children." Xiang Nan prayed, "No matter how many grudges we had back then, let them all be wiped out.

 I hope that in that life, after drinking Meng Po Soup, you will be able to forget all your past lives and reincarnate well. In your next life, you will have a wonderful marriage, a husband who loves you, and a well-behaved and obedient child. Master, take care. "
