9. Disappearing ancient books

"My country is still in the agricultural era. According to historical records, it is now called feudal society, which is ridiculous, right? If I can't read, I may never know that there is a so-called future in this world. In the future, people will watch TV, eat ice cream, have houses and land, they are all happy, and they all like to watch. I also like movies, but I know that this is not what we can do in our era, but your arrival and the arrival of that woman Su Su have helped me achieve this goal. Do you know what this means?

I thought about it and replied in five seconds: "It means that your empire will become stronger"

"That's right, but it will also cause unpredictable natural and man-made disasters, just like the temperature epidemic, earthquakes and avalanches you caused when you were in Jeju. Fortunately, the disaster is not too serious. It is limited to Jeju. Even if Jeju is destroyed, I will not care, but if the world is destroyed, I will go crazy and angry, which will make everyone not be good. Yes, but I know that my fate does not allow me to do that, because it is now the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty recorded in history books is a weak and incompetent empire. My ancestors and I were flattered by future generations. In addition to our achievements in literature and art, there are also some memorable reforms that the Song Dynasty is really not as good as the Tang Dynasty. Hi! "

Speaking of this, Zhao Zhen's expression was gloomy. I interrupted and said, "Your Majesty, you don't have to do this. I think you are very wise, very bold, and very good at using people. I believe that history has been changing. Maybe everything will get better. I can guarantee this."

After listening to my encouraging words, Zhao Zhen was more or less pleasant. He changed the topic and said, "There are really a lot of strange things in the world nowadays. A few years ago, a Yunyou Taoist came to Beijing and left a lot of words. Every sentence came true. I clearly remember that there was one thing at that time. Xixia Yuanhao detained me. The Tianzhu monk who paid tribute to the court. These monks often pay tribute to our dynasty. They set out east from Tianzhu for six months to reach Dashiguo (now Afghanistan), two months later they arrive in Xizhou (now Turpan, Xinjiang), and after another three months, they can reach Xiazhou (now south of Wushenqi, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region). Before this, Tianzhu monks kindly said that they would wait for nine people to pay tribute to the Buddhist scriptures, Buddha bones and bronze tooth Bodhisattva statues in Kaifeng, and set out to return to China after being stranded in Kaifeng for three months. I would reward them a lot of silk every time before repatriating them. However, in that year, that is, the third year of Jingyou, Tianzhu monks did not come, and I sent the governor of Huanzhou to Xixia. Important person, Yuan Hao's man actually tore his face with me without hesitation, that is, Song Xia has been at war since then..."

"So, who is the Taoist of Yunyou?" I was keenly aware that a trace of danger was spreading.

"Well, that Yunyou Taoist is my later national teacher!" Zhao Zhen said half of his words and swallowed the rest to see how I would answer.

"Your Majesty, according to common sense, there is no one in the world who can predict the future. Even the real master of the Book of Changes can only calculate some major events in the future through the combination of hexagrams and personnel. If you want me to see it, this Yunyou Taoist is not a person of this era."

Zhao Zhen did not object, but looked at me with appreciation, and then said, "Yes, the national teacher is indeed very human, but he is definitely from the Song Dynasty. However, the national teacher underestimated me too much. He thought that his trick could succeed, but he did not know that I had sent people to keep an eye on his words and deeds for a long time, and what the national master did was For the purpose of my Song Dynasty, but I don't want to be fooled by him. Do you know, what kind of expression did the national master look when he found out that I knew his secret?

"Shock or crazy?" I tried to ask.

"Neither" Zhao Zhen paused for a moment, and then told me the truth: 'Yunyou Taoist told Zhao Zhen that he found a very thick ancient book when he was practicing at the seaside. There were strange things outside. It seemed transparent and a little vague. It felt very slippery. I didn't have this at all. He thought it was a heavenly book, but he didn't know that he had read it. Later, I learned that it was a strange book that recorded ancient and modern times at home and abroad. From that book, Zhao Zhen knew what it would look like a thousand years later, what would happen in the Song Dynasty, and what mistakes he would make in this dynasty. In the past few years, all the major events recorded in the book have been fulfilled. Even the defeat of the Song Dynasty in the Battle of Song and Xia was accurate, but Zhao Zhen treated me. He said that since you appeared, many things recorded in the book have disappeared. When I looked through it a few days ago, even the things after this dynasty disappeared. Do you think it's strange?'

"This?" I didn't figure out how to reply to Zhao Zhen for a moment. I felt that things were strange. Can history really change, but I don't know what their future history will be like. What Zhao Zhen imagined his empire was like, and he could only take one step at a time.

"Zhao Ze, can you help me explain this problem?" Zhao Zhen urged me to answer.

I suddenly remembered the Yunyou Taoist and asked, "Your Majesty, what did that Yunyou Taoist, your national teacher, say later?"

"My national teacher passed away two years later. On his deathbed, he only left a sentence, 'Leng Xing'. Zhao Ze happened to have a word in your name. Last year, when Zhongshu Province reported to me about your offer of auspiciousness, I noticed that although the later things became very difficult, I still found you."

......

The Chongzheng Hall was quiet for a long time. Zhao Zhen waited for my explanation. I stood up and walked in front of his throne twice. I gradually had an idea in my mind. When the idea gradually matured, I stopped and asked, "Your Majesty, can I read that book?"

Zhao Zhen frowned slightly and seemed to be a little dissatisfied. I was afraid that he would misunderstand and quickly said, "Your Majesty, if the doctor wants to see the patient, if he can't see the patient, how can he catch the medicine? I remember that the ancient method is promising, smelling, asking and cutting. The four methods are indispensable, otherwise it will be misdiagnosed and harming the patient, so I beg Your Majesty to let me. Take a look at that book and you may find something!"

Maybe what I said was the point. Zhao Zhen agreed to my request. A moment later, the maid behind her presented the book to me.

When I took over the heavy old book, I found that the ancient cover actually said: General History of the Song Dynasty, four clear regular characters,

Nanjing Apaya Publishing House is printed directly below. Oh, my God, isn't this the city I live in?

The page of the book is very old and smells of sandalwood. I quickly opened the book and looked through it as quickly as possible. The scrolling of the page flashed in front of me like a movie film.

Finally, I stopped in a place, less than one-third, and the second two-thirds disappeared, and even the preface of the home page was disappearing...

I was a little nervous and a little confused. I seemed to feel that something was happening. When I closed my eyes in the "History of the Song Dynasty", everything around me seemed to disappear. I stood in the dark universe, surrounded me coldly, and countless bright lines flashed in front of me, and these lines flashed quickly. In front of my eyes, in just a moment, a new galaxy was born. I ran there quickly, stepping on the starlight and the ice and snow. Soon a blue planet came into my sight. I searched for relevant information in my memory. It seemed that I had seen this planet somewhere, when I was in school, in a science fiction movie, or in the empire. In a documentary?

The world is changing, and the vicissitudes of life are just a flick. I saw an ancient country slowly unfolding in front of me, as beautiful as a roll of ink painting.

This is...

A flash of lightning split the world in front of me, and the ink painting in my dream drifted away with the wind. I returned to reality. Zhao Zhen sat on the high throne and looked at me anxiously.

"Aiqing, are you all right? Tell me what's going on?"

"I understand Your Majesty"

I told Zhao Zhen: "The future history has been completely changed. You will lead the Song Dynasty to a new future. Your name will always be in history. Your empire will stand on every inch of this planet, so this book is only recorded here. You can see that in December of the second year of the lunar calendar, and the following things will disappear, and this year It's been three years, Your Majesty!"

"Oh!" Zhao Zhen fell into deep thinking. It seems that the whole world is far away from him. Maybe this fact is too cruel. Anyway, I will wait for his decision.
