Chapter 26 The White Moonlight of the Tang Dynasty

In the time and space before the Tang Dynasty, no one knew about Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

Hearing Wuyou say that he was the emperor for eternity, no matter which king he was, he was a little unconvinced.

Liu Che was even more uncomfortable.

"Shouldn't there be a Han Dynasty after the Qin Dynasty? Why do we talk about Tang Taizong? This Tang Taizong is an emperor for eternity, but an emperor for eternity is so worthless? Is the fairy doing wholesale?"

Wei Qing looked at Liu Che helplessly: "Your Majesty, you may have made the greatest contribution, so the fairy will talk about it last."

This statement is not bad.

Liu Che nodded, reluctantly agreeing.

But thinking of that Tang Taizong, I'm still very angry.

Datang
Li Shimin held the hand of Empress Changsun: "Guanyin maidservant, in the sky is talking about me, saying that I am the emperor through the ages..."

Empress Changsun smiled: "Congratulations, Your Majesty. Your Majesty's great achievements have been praised for thousands of years. I think my country will be strong after the Tang Dynasty, and I will worship you all over the world."

Li Shimin also laughed: "I will definitely bring peace to the world."

After Wuyou introduced Zhaoling, he smiled and said, "Now we are going to buy a ticket to visit Zhaoling."

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, who were still smiling just now, looked complicated.

After a while, Li Shimin thought about it: "Well, the Mausoleum of the First Emperor has become a scenic spot, how can my Zhaoling Mausoleum stay out of it."

then……

Everyone has seen the worry-free ticket buying process.

Looking at the ticket price, Li Shimin was not calm anymore.

Why is the ticket for the Terracotta Warriors and Horses only 120 yuan, but his Zhaoling ticket is only 30 yuan?

Everyone is one emperor through the ages, why is the gap so big?Who is this looking down upon?

Qin Shihuang was very satisfied. He nodded with a smile, which made the ministers of the Qin Dynasty feel horrified. His Majesty actually smiled, and even nodded with a smile. I don't know what His Majesty thought?Is someone going to be unlucky?
Now is not the peak season, and there are not many people coming to Zhaoling, so Wuyou went in soon.

Once inside, it seems that there are fewer tourists, which makes Zhaoling even more quiet.

Qin Shihuang was very unhappy about this.

In comparison, he would rather his tomb not be so busy.

Wearing a dress made of Tang Dynasty and carrying an embroidered backpack, Wuyou explained as he walked: "My family, now we are in Zhaoling, where Emperor Taizong Li Shimin and his empress Changsun are buried, and there are 193 accompanying tombs. , is the largest imperial tomb in China and even in the world."

"From the first burial of Empress Changsun in the tenth year of Zhenguan to the 29th year of Kaiyuan, Zhaoling continued to be built for 107 years. Although the buildings on the ground were largely damaged after wars and various disasters, the stone kiln of Empress Changsun in Youdian And the remains of the plank road are clearly visible, and the underground structures of Zhaoling have not yet been excavated.”

Li Shimin couldn't sit still when he heard that Empress Changsun passed away ten years ago.

Thinking that in a few years, Empress Changsun would leave him, I was filled with bitterness, and my heart was so sad that I almost suffocated.

He hugged Queen Changsun and cried loudly: "Mr. Guanyin, I want you to stay with me all the time and never leave me..."

Empress Changsun patted Li Shimin patiently: "Okay, I will always be with you, and I will definitely not leave before you."

But she knows her own body. In the past two years, her body has become worse than before, and she doesn't know when she will be unable to hold on.

After crying for a while, Li Shimin felt a little relieved when he thought that the underground buildings of Zhaoling had not been excavated yet.

However, Wuyou's next words made him want to cry again.

"However, Zhaoling has been stolen a long time ago. Wen Tao from the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties had the Zhaoling stolen and wrote a list. According to the biography of Wen Tao in the New Five Dynasties History, Tao came down from the palace and saw the palace system, which was magnificent. It is no different from the human world, with a main bed in the middle, a stone bed in the east and west compartments, and an iron box in the stone letter on the bed, which contains all the books from previous lives and the handwriting of King Zhong. The paper and ink are as new as new. Tao took them and passed them on to the human world."

"It is said that Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was a die-hard fan of the sage Wang Xizhi. After his death, there was a Lanting preface buried in his tomb. This is very consistent with the above records. Presumably, the underground buildings of Zhaoling Mausoleum must have been damaged to a great extent, and Of the eighteen imperial tombs in the Guanzhong area of ​​the Tang Dynasty, only the Qianling Mausoleum where Gaozong and Wu Zetian were buried together has not been stolen, and all the others have been stolen."

Li Shimin was already a little short of breath.

Has his tomb been stolen?Lanting Xu was also stolen?

His favorite Lanting Xu, who would dare to take it away?

Emperors of the Tang Dynasty: You are still alive. I heard that your tomb was stolen after your death. I ask you how you feel?
Only Li Zhi is in a good mood now. After all, his tomb has been stamped by the immortal and confirmed that it has not been stolen.

汉朝
Liu Che laughed loudly: "The largest imperial mausoleum in China? If you let it be so big, it deserves to be stolen."

Then, he touched his chin: "How was this Tang Gaozong's tomb built? Why wasn't his tomb stolen?"

Looking at the sky, Liu Che planned to ask the immortal later.

Not only Liu Che, but also many emperors planned to ask the immortal why Tang Gaozong's mausoleum survived the disaster?

It was too hot to go worry-free, so he took out a bottle of water from his backpack and drank a few sips.

After putting the water away, she smiled and said, "Since we are here in Zhaoling, let's talk about Tang Taizong Li Shimin. If Qin Shihuang is beautiful, strong and miserable, then Li Shimin is Bai Yueguang."

"Li Shimin can be said to be the white moonlight of the entire Tang Dynasty. His queen loves him, his courtiers love him, his sons and daughters love him, the common people love him, and even foreigners love him. They call him Tian Khan. Li Shimin passed away for many years Afterwards, everyone in the Tang Dynasty still missed him, and if there was a tradition of people crying for Zhaoling when they were wronged, whoever had a grievance or was unrecognized for their talents would go to Zhaoling and tell Taizong what happened to them."

"Taizong was born in the Li family of Taiyuan. He was a typical tall, rich and handsome man. His father Li Yuan and his mother Dou had a very good relationship. He grew up in a very loving environment. When he was young, he wore bright clothes and raged horses. When he was young, he fought in the north and south. , conquered most of the Tang Dynasty, built the Tiance Mansion, and gathered famous ministers under him, and later launched the Xuanwumen Revolution, ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor. After becoming emperor, he governed the world internally with culture, accepted advice with an open mind, encouraged farmers and mulberry trees, and brought peace to the people. , practiced strict frugality, and created the famous Zhenguan rule in history."

"Where there is civilized governance, there is martial arts. Not to mention the great military exploits of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty before he ascended the throne. After he ascended the throne, he also used troops many times to pacify the Turks, Xueyantuo, Uihe, Gaochang, Yanqi, Qiuci, Tuyuhun, etc. The Tang Dynasty’s prestige spread far and wide, and the whole world surrendered.”

"When people mention the Tang Dynasty, they all say that those who have never destroyed a country dare not be called Zhenguan military generals. There is also a widely circulated incident. At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the Turkic Jieli Khan who almost moved the capital to the Tang Dynasty was finally captured by Emperor Taizong. They danced at the banquet, and ordered Feng Zhi, the chief of the Nanban, to wear Yongshi, and said with a smile: "The Hu and Yue families have never existed since ancient times." This shows how powerful the Tang Dynasty was.

"After reading Li Shimin's life, I just want to say, what kind of script is this for a winner in life? Tang Taizong and Qin Shihuang are both called the same emperor through the ages, but in comparison, Tang Taizong is undoubtedly much happier than Qin Shihuang. He has love. With a wife, a confidant, and a trusting courtier, Qin Shihuang will undoubtedly be very lonely."

Qin Shi Huang raised his head and looked at the sky: "I have the Qin Dynasty in my heart, and I am not lonely."

Liu Che: It's another good day, when will the fairy mention me?

Li Shimin: No matter how much the fairy talks about, I still want to hear it.

Wuyou was tired from walking, so he found a place to sit down: "Thousands of years later, people are still looking forward to the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Tang Taizong created the prosperous Tang Dynasty, which brought peace to the people, national peace and security. He opened up territories and expanded the territory. The civilization of the Tang Dynasty spread far and wide, and the prosperous Tang Dynasty became a symbol of prosperity in the hearts of later generations. More than 1000 years later, overseas Chinese people called themselves Tang people, built Chinatowns abroad, and wore Tang costumes, which shows the far-reaching and wide influence of the prosperous Tang Dynasty."

Speaking of this, Wuyou stood up and said with a smile: "Today we came to Zhaoling and talked briefly about Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty. Time is limited, so we can only say so much. We will have a good chat with you when we have time. Now, let’s go pay homage to the Zhaoling Mausoleum and pay homage to Bai Yueguang of the Tang Dynasty, who is recognized by the foreigners as the Khan of Heaven.”
