Chapter 1: Traveling to the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms(1/2)

"Young man, I see your hall is dark, and there will be a big disaster today." The old beggar man's cloudy eyes flashed with a gleam of light.

A young man in a suit, a slovenly beggar, and a tortoise at his feet, crawling lazily in the sun.

People were coming and going on the street, and Li Ye couldn't stand it anymore. He was a serious office worker. Although he was just a salesman who had a lot of food, he didn't look like a dog at all.

When I went out early in the morning, I was stopped by an old beggar man, who told me that he was bound to be in trouble and that anyone else would be angry.

"How did you say that?" Those who work in sales are most afraid of others saying unlucky words and causing bad luck.

The old beggar ignored Li Ye's dissatisfaction and handed over a dark object, which seemed to be a jade pendant. "Young man, I give you something that can save your life."

Without waiting for Li Ye to refuse, he stuffed it directly into his hand.

The old man was skinny and his clothes were ragged. Li Ye felt pity for him and wanted to give him some change, but suddenly he thought that no one carries money these days. They just scan the QR code with their mobile phones.

Unexpectedly, the old beggar man was very smart. He took out the QR code from his dirty pocket and said, "Two hundred, no need to thank me."

Li Ye almost spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling that he had been tricked by this old beggar man. Two hundred yuan was almost his day's salary.

Li Ye just wanted to return the thing to him, but he felt that the thing in his hand was as warm as jade and slightly warm. It seemed that it was really a jade pendant. But judging from the thief look on the old man's face, he probably dug it out of some garbage dump.

The old man looked at him pitifully, and Li Ye could only scan the code reluctantly.

Forget it, just think of it as a good deed. Judging from the condition of this old beggar, he will probably starve to death on the streets if he doesn't give him any money.

If you are cheated, be cheated.

In a sense, he felt that his profession was similar to that of this old beggar man.

After collecting the money, the old man still looked dejected and said, "Young man, take care of yourself."

Li Ye felt that his words had profound meaning. Before he could think about it, he saw that the tortoise at his feet had crawled to his feet. This guy was very slow and indifferent to the bustling crowd. He kept leaning towards him and looking at it.

It's like watching a movie slowed down ten times.

A fly flew by my feet.

The clumsy body of the bastard stagnated, and suddenly he stretched out his head like lightning and swallowed the fly in one gulp.

Li Ye, who moved quickly, was shocked. The old beggar picked up the tortoise on the ground and actually sang a song: A pot of wine makes us happy to meet each other, and many things in ancient and modern times can be talked about and laughed at!

There was a sense of vicissitudes in his voice, which attracted passers-by's glances.

Li Ye felt that the back of this old beggar man was quite handsome.

I looked at the thing in my hand again and wiped the dirt on it, revealing a warm light yellow color. It didn't seem to be made of plastic. Could it really be a jade pendant?

The jade pendant is getting hotter and hotter in the palm of my hand, making it a little hot.

Before Li Ye could figure out what was going on, he heard a violent roar behind him and the crowd screamed. As soon as he turned around, he saw a large truck rushing in front of him.

He even saw the driver's extremely frightened face.

Then his vision went dark, and his last thought was that the old beggar... had tricked him to death.



When Li Ye opened his eyes, he saw a bastard lying in front of him.

There was a person kneeling on the ground at his feet.

These people were very strange. They were all dressed in ancient clothes. The men wore green hats and the women wore embroidered skirts. They had their braids tied up and their heads lowered. No one dared to look at them.

Then, he saw two corpses on the ground, one of which had a shining silver sword stuck in it.

This made him very frightened. Why were there dead people?

Li Ye felt a terrible headache and couldn't figure out what was going on. He only remembered that his eyes went dark amidst the panic.

When you open your eyes, you will see everything happening in front of you.

The one who seemed to be most impressed was the tortoise.

Of course, he couldn't tell whether the thing in front of him was a tortoise, a turtle, or a turtle.

"Your Majesty!" An urgent voice came from outside the house, and a young woman in costume came in with the support of a group of palace maids.

Your Majesty? Li Ye became even more confused. He looked at himself again. He was wearing a long white costume, which seemed to be made of silk. His long and messy hair made him feel like he was dreaming.

Suddenly a bolt of lightning struck in my mind, could it be that I traveled through time?

"Your Majesty!" The young woman in fine clothes had eyes full of pain.

After working in sales for four or five years, I have been immersed in society, and I have encountered many false opinions, so I naturally have the ability to distinguish.

A warmth arose in Li Ye's heart. In the subconscious of this body, the young woman in front of him occupies an important position in life.

"Your Majesty, as a descendant of the Great Ancestor Taizong, a son of the Li family, and the world is connected to him, how can he fail and give up on himself?" The young woman approached slowly and extended her hand to support him.

Li Ye immediately smelled a refreshing fragrance, but he did not dare to speak for fear that he would say the wrong thing and make this beautiful young woman unhappy and reveal his identity.

"Is Your Majesty sick?" The young woman reached out and touched his forehead, "Send the call to the doctor quickly."

Li Ye pinched himself secretly, and the pain in his thigh confirmed that this was not a dream, and it turned out that he had really traveled through time.

"I...I'm fine." Li Ye stood up slowly, "You all can go down."

Although I don't know what happened, there is no need to let so many people follow me and feel uncomfortable.

The palace maids and eunuchs did not get what they wanted, so they retreated one after another.

Even the maid beside the young woman has gone out.

"I..." Li Ye was about to say something. But the young woman reached out to cover his face, and big tears rolled down from her eyes, "Li Maozhen is so ambitious. Your Majesty must not act on his own initiative."

Li Maozhen? King Qi of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms?

Li Ye was fond of history in his previous life. He traveled to the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and his surname was Li. Could it be that he was Li Cunxu?

Looking at my slender and slightly thin body, I don’t think it looks like it.

Li Cunxu was a god of war in the late Tang Dynasty. He was extremely powerful, and he was definitely not as helpless as he was.

Besides, with Li Cunxu’s strength, there is no need to be angry for Li Maozhen.

Recalling what the young woman said about the great ancestor Taizong, she instantly understood that she had traveled through time and became the emperor of the late Tang Dynasty.

I just don’t know which emperor it is.

In the era of Li Maozhen's rise, the Tang Empire was already in the aftermath of its end. The Huangchao Rebellion had drained the empire of all its flesh and blood, and vassal towns all over the country were self-reliant. The emperor's edicts could not leave the capital and were equivalent to a piece of waste paper.

Thinking of this, Li Ye's heart sank. Li Ye, Li Ye, the penultimate emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Tang Zhaozong, seemed to be also named Li Ye!

This is one of the most tragic emperors in Chinese history, even worse than Chongzhen in the late Ming Dynasty.

After all, Emperor Chongzhen spent most of his seventeen-year career as an emperor. He could kill anyone he wanted. No one dared to question his emperor's prestige, even at the last moment.

But Tang Zhaozong was different. All the diseases of the Tang Empire for two hundred years were succumbed to him. In the early days of his accession to the throne, he still had some real power. People at the time commented that he was majestic and handsome, with the legacy of Huichang.

In the middle and late period, he basically became the plaything of Guanzhong Fanzhen and Zhu Wen. He was humiliated, imprisoned, and poured copper juice on the door. Finally, he was killed in Luoyang by the rising Zhu Wen. Before his death, he was still running around the pillars in disheveled clothes.

, trying to avoid the swords of the rebel army.

After his death, Zhu Wen supported his ninth son Li Wei to proclaim himself emperor. He was forced to retreat to Zhu Wen within two years of being emperor.

The Tang Dynasty died from then on.

The saddest thing is that when Emperor Zhaozong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Ye, was still alive, he worked hard to restore the Tang Dynasty to its glory. However, the Tang Dynasty was so troubled that it was difficult to recover, and he trusted inhumane people to hasten the demise of the empire.

If we really time travel to this emperor, it would be very bad.

Li Ye had a headache.

In later generations, as long as they are normal Chinese, there is no one who does not admire the glorious Tang Empire. It represents the most vigorous and aristocratic era of the Chinese nation.

.

But now, there is only a withered skeleton left in the Tang Dynasty, covered with maggots, surrounded by ambitious wolves.

In such an era, what can you do?

Li Ye was extremely frightened.

He was terrified both for his own fate and for the fate of the Tang Dynasty.

This is a journey through hell.

Li Ye couldn't help but complain in his heart. Even if he didn't travel to Gaozong and Xuanzong, he could travel to Xianzong and Wuzong eras.

Even if you can't just travel back and forth and be the head of a feudal town, it's better than this emperor in name only.

In such an era, such a situation, and such an emperor, Li Ye really didn't know what to do with himself.

"Your Majesty..." The young woman put her face on his knee.

"What time is it now?" Li Ye sighed.

"It's three o'clock." The young woman said softly.

Two big question marks popped up in Li Ye's mind. How did he, who came from a later generation, know what time it was? He was afraid of revealing his secret, so he didn't dare to ask, let alone talk more, and pretended to be hungover and headache, "

I am alone and quiet."

The expression on the young woman's face became even more sad. She stood up, bowed, and retreated slowly.
