The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 4 Start all over again
"It's good that you know!" King Yan Luo said confidently, "Now, you have experienced thirty lives, and you have suffered the retribution you deserve. The calamity has passed. From then on, your fate will return to normal. Then it will end at thirty. After all, your life is not very good in thirty lifetimes, and you are basically a short-lived ghost."

Zhao Gou looked at King Yan Luo with some doubts, and said in surprise, "Why did it return to normal later? What's going on here!"

"Actually, this is what Dapeng meant. He let you live in the world for 30 years. Each life is 900 years old, exactly 99 years. Originally, there were still 99 years, but Dapeng followed the Buddha, which saved the remaining 900 years. , only let you suffer for 99 years. In addition, the remaining [-] years will be your lifespan in the next life."

King Yan Luo eloquently explained everything: "Back then, Dapeng thought that the Central Plains was invaded by foreign enemies such as the Jin Kingdom and the Liao Kingdom. Therefore, he asked the Buddha to let him go down to the lower realms, and the Buddha saw that Dapeng, who was born to kill, was thinking about the common people in the world for the first time, so he agreed to his request."

"The Dapeng has profound magic power. Regardless of his status as an immortal, he is a mortal who comes to the world without any magic power. Even anyone with magic power is not allowed to interfere with the general situation of the world, nor is he allowed to come to the world without authorization. Those who have not passed through the heaven Allowed, entering the world of mortals without authorization is a violation of the rules of heaven."

"Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for people with magic power to appear in the human world. At most, it is some five-element spells, or the way of deduction, seeking good fortune and avoiding evil. It is simply impossible to use magic power to influence the direction of war. Yes. There is an order in the human world, and no one is allowed to interfere. Only by using human strength to resolve crises can one truly feel that human potential is very powerful, and sometimes human beings can conquer the sky."

"Dapeng wants to do something for the common people in the world, relying on his own strength to assist the Ming Lord and protect the Song Dynasty. It didn't work out. I didn't expect you, the emperor, to be so incompetent that his good intentions were ruined. When he When the soul returned to the underworld, it found the book of life and death, found your deadline, and decided to make you pay a painful price for what you did."

"Let you go through 99 lives, a total of [-] lives, and [-] years are the day when your calamity will expire. I will give you a reward. Even though the big roc is wild and unruly, killing people like hemp, there is still some compassion in my heart. Therefore , your life is considered to be the best ending. Enjoying the wealth and honor in the world, becoming a famous person, or helping your friends escape disaster, it can be regarded as doing great kindness, accumulating merit, and increasing your life again. Specifically, How many years is up to you."

Zhao Gou recalled the Song history he had studied, and had to say that Zhao Gou was the worst emperor in his mind.From being smug at the beginning, to drifting with the crowd later, and finally surviving humiliatingly.At that time, Zhao Gou evaluated himself as rubbish, listened to slander, killed loyal and good officials, and reused treacherous ministers, which made the national fortune decline day by day, and it was no longer as grand as it used to be.Even though part of the situation at that time was the responsibility of Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, what really did was whether he was willing to do that.

The truth of the matter is all understood, and Zhao Gou died at thirty just to pay for his crimes.At the beginning, when his parents named him Zhao Gou, it made him very embarrassed, and it was this name that made him fall in love with history.His parents didn't read much, but they only remembered that there was a monarch in history who was Zhao Gou, which directly became his name.

Zhao Gou's reputation in history is not very good, he is not a wise emperor, nor is he a man of great talent.Later, Zhao Gou wanted to change his name because it caused him too much trouble.However, his parents rebuked directly and angrily: "You only remember his bad points, but never thought of his greatness. Being able to gain a foothold in the troubled times as the founding monarch proves that he has some skills. I'm here for you This name is not for you to learn his disadvantages, good and evil are irrelevant, right and wrong, but for you to learn his advantages, discard the dross and take the essence."

"If you entered university that day, you would choose history and study Chinese history specifically to see which monarch was not at fault, and let you see Zhao Gou's life clearly. I haven't studied for a few days, but I also know that he can become The founding monarch is also a remarkable figure."

"I hope you can learn from his courage and create your own dynasty in the troubled times, that is to say, you can rely on your own strength to survive in this era. Your mother and I are old, and we can only Go on your own. If you really want to change your name, go for it!"

At that time, Zhao Gou clearly remembered the disappointment in his father's eyes. His father, who had never been angry with him, was angry for the first time because of his name.In the end, Zhao Gou also gave up the idea of ​​changing his name, listened to his father's suggestion, and chose the Department of History.Since then, I have formally studied history, especially the policies and means of ancient kings, as well as the system, looking for pros and cons.

Zhao Gou was very excited every time he saw Goujian, Qin Shihuang, Han Wudi, Tang Taizong and other Ming emperors recorded in history books; The founding emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, who had the same name as himself, always felt a little awkward, so he re-evaluated it.

Although politically, Zhao Gou did not do much.The achievements in literature and art can be regarded as a leading figure.However, what Zhao Gou hated the most was the history of those treacherous ministers who were in power and executed Yue Fei for unwarranted charges. He hated the monarch "Zhao Gou" very much in his heart. The matter of self-destruction of the Great Wall.

Now, Zhao Gou knew that the person he had always hated was himself.If Zhao Gou, who has experienced modern times, becomes the founding monarch of the Southern Song Dynasty again, he is confident that he will never repeat the same mistakes. He is confident that the Southern Song Dynasty will be prosperous again, and it is even possible to reach unprecedented heights.

Zhao Gou pulled his fist in, shook his head and sighed, whispering softly: "If time can be turned back, I will definitely not do such stupid things again, and I will definitely be able to protect the great Song Dynasty and the people's lives more prosperous."

King Yan Luo stared at Zhao Gou who regretted endlessly in silence, saw the firm gaze in Zhao Gou's eyes, and couldn't help saying: "If I give you a chance, can you prevent history from repeating itself, and can you lead the people of Song Dynasty? Prosperity? Can you afford it!"

Without hesitation, Zhao Gou replied unswervingly: "Absolutely, I dare to swear on my own life. If I can't do it, I, Zhao Gou, will never enter reincarnation and become a lonely ghost!"

Hei and Bai Wuchang were taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Yan Jun! This..."

King Yan Luo shook his head, motioning for the two of them not to speak, his eyes stayed on Zhao Gou's body, looking at the resolute look in his eyes.Yan Luo Wang seemed to have made up his mind, and said solemnly: "I will give you a chance to return to Yang, go to Song Dynasty, and let you do it all over again!"

Zhao Gou's eyes widened in disbelief, he couldn't speak with excitement, and tremblingly said: "Is this true?"

"You can't lie about what I said!" King Yama vowed, "However, if you want to re-enter reincarnation and return to Song Dynasty again, then you must forget that you met me today. However, I will let you keep The memories of this life let you do it again, I just hope you don’t miss this opportunity. If you miss this opportunity, the punishment you will suffer next time will definitely be more serious.”

Zhao Gou was very excited when he learned that he could do it all over again, and said solemnly, "I will never break my promise."

If King Yan Luo made him drink Mengpo soup, he would forget everything he had learned in this life.Even if you give him a chance, let him do it again.Zhao Gou can't guarantee that he has the ability to change history, and it may be counterproductive and worse.Now, King Yama only deprives the memory of the underworld, and the other memories still remain, which makes him even more excited, thinking to himself: "Since I made a mistake in the first life, then I will finish it in the last life, and I won't do it again." Repeat the same mistakes."

King Yan Luo smiled slightly and said: "In this case, I will erase all your things about the underworld and the content of our conversation. Now, you only have the memory of being 30 years old in this life in your mind, and there are no other memories. , are you ready?"

"Always be prepared!" Zhao Gou replied seriously.

A moment later, King Yan Luo cast a spell to directly erase Zhao Gou's memory, leaving him in a daze.Then, King Yan Luo ordered Black and White Impermanence to be sent to Po Meng and drink Po Meng's soup.Of course, it was not the real Mengpo soup, but was replaced by an unknown liquid, and it went directly to the Naihe bridge.

Hei and Bai Wuchang escorted Zhao Gou to another place of reincarnation.This place is the past world, and the other is the future world.The two of them saw the timing and threw him directly into "Song"'s reincarnation passage.Zhao Gou was sent to reincarnation in a blur of consciousness, and the two of them obeyed the orders of King Yama.

Even knowing that King Yama's move violated the rules of heaven, Hei and Bai Wuchang have no regrets and are willing to live and die with King Yama.After everything was done, and after witnessing Zhao Gou's successful reincarnation, the two of them also came to Yama to report the situation.

"Thank you!" Yan Luo Wang solemnly thanked Hei and Bai Wuchang, and sighed: "Now, it's fine for me to violate the rules of heaven alone, and you two only need to follow my orders, and you don't need to secretly change Mengpo soup. I have already placed a spell on his body to ensure that his life is safe and he will not forget this life."

Hei and Baiwuchang smiled, and said: "Since then, we have fought together, we both understand your intentions, so why should we bear the responsibility alone. Since we have to bear the responsibility, the three of us come together. Back then, when we were fighting together on the battlefield, didn’t we all say it? We will live and die together!”

Yan Luo Wang looked at Hei and Bai Wuchang with tears in his eyes, and laughed loudly: "Haha!...To live and die together!"

A moment later, a majestic ray of light rushed directly to the underworld, and a multicolored glow burst out from behind the man, and he said angrily: "Yan Jun, Hei, and Bai Wuchang, you three actually tampered with the trajectory of history privately and sent people in this world to the Song Dynasty. Can the three be convicted? Hurry up and go to the Heavenly Palace with this god to apologize!"

Yan Luowang, Hei, and Bai Wuchang looked at each other and smiled tacitly. They followed the general and left the underworld to go to the heavenly palace to receive punishment.However, the three of them did not regret it, because the three of them were soldiers who fought on the battlefield in the late Northern Song Dynasty.They don't want to see the declining situation of the Song Dynasty, even if it violates the rules of heaven, they will not hesitate to use their power for personal gain and make the last effort for the Song Dynasty.

The three of them were tied up tightly by the gods and flew directly to the Heavenly Palace.However, the three of them thought together in their hearts: "Zhao Gou, I just hope you don't get confused again this time, and really make the Great Song Dynasty prosperous, otherwise our three people's hard work will be in vain!"
