When the emperor comes to modern times, history collapses!

There is a constant stream of people coming and going on the streets of the capital.

It feels like the New Year or some other festival.

There are also some foreigners who don’t look like they are descendants of Yan and Huang.

There are horse-drawn carriages, rickshaws, bicycles, electric donkeys and cars on the road, but in relatively small numbers.

The road is flat and wide, with some invisible traffic signs.

There are already some buildings with several or even dozens of floors standing on both sides of the road.

Compared with other dynasties, it can be clearly felt that Dalong was more powerful.

The representatives of these aristocratic families were extremely excited at this moment.

They were surprised to find that many countries here had completely different political systems.

Some states have no ruling figures such as emperors or khans at all.

This discovery gave them hope - perhaps here they could find a way to achieve a win-win situation between imperial power and the aristocratic families.

They used to be most concerned about factories and enterprises, but now their interest has declined significantly.

Instead, they spend their days immersed in the ocean of knowledge in the library, or looking for people to ask about other countries' systems. Some even proposed to go to other countries for field research.

Zhu Ming said: "If you want to go to other countries, it's best to go to Europe. Although the Great Dragon Dynasty is stronger in terms of strength, its infrastructure is still better. It just so happens that we are going to arrange some delegations to visit various countries recently."

Ireland is now a big dragon and is relatively close to various European countries.

Teleport the embassy and the visiting group to Ireland.

Arrange soldiers to escort them when visiting other countries.

This time Zhu Ming did not follow. After stamping the seal on the Dalong court, he returned to his villa and watched videos online.

"Ding, guests from the Tang Dynasty are coming, please go and greet them!"

Zhu Ming was stunned for a moment, then turned over and got out of bed.

"The guest from the Tang Dynasty, I don't know which emperor it is, it's definitely not Li Yuan or Li Shimin, I don't know if it's one of the more famous emperors."

Before he traveled through time, he only knew two or three emperors of the Tang Dynasty. Even now, he didn't know much. So he decided to search for relevant information online and download it for preservation.

Zhu Ming arrived at Wude Tang Dynasty in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, Li Yuan was leaning back on the sofa, holding a stack of portraits, carefully looking at the women in each painting.

His eyes were full of admiration and obscenity, as if he had a special liking for these women.

However, he did not notice that there was suddenly one more person in the imperial study.

"Not bad, this one is good!" Li Yuan praised to himself as he flipped through the portraits. His eyes stopped at one of the paintings, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a satisfied smile.

Then he turned to another painting and expressed his appreciation: "This one is also okay, it's younger!" His eyes were shining with excitement, as if he was picking out something he liked.

"This one is good, it looks a bit like Dou!" Li Yuan continued to flip through the portraits, and when he saw one, he couldn't help but exclaimed. The woman in this portrait had some similarities with Dou, which surprised him.

Just then, a crisp "Snap!" sound broke the silence in the room.

He patted Li Yuan on the shoulder and asked, "What are you looking at so intently?"

Zhu Ming asked curiously, and at the same time moved closer to Li Yuan, and found that the pictures in his hands were all portraits of women.

"Turns out they are all portraits of women. You want to participate in a talent show at such an old age. Old Li, you're better than that!" Zhu Ming said jokingly.

The sudden sound startled Li Yuan, and he was about to shout for help.

I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw it was Zhu Ming.

"If you scare others, they will die. Next time you teleport, can you make some noise in advance?"

Zhu Ming chuckled: "If you make some noise, you won't be able to see the expression of the old cow when it wants to eat young grass."

Li Yuan explained: "What do you mean by old cows eating young grass? If I want to eat young grass, do I need to participate in the selection? Although there is no queen, there are still several concubines."

"Then why are you drooling at the portrait?" Zhu Ming asked curiously.

Li Yuan hurriedly wiped the corners of his mouth and found that there was no saliva at all. He said unhappily: "I am looking at the portraits here, actually I want to choose a queen."

Zhu Ming picked up a few portraits. In addition to portraits of women, there were also introductions about the women.

"Speaking of which, why don't you consider choosing one from among your daughters-in-law? You should know that the royal family of the Tang Dynasty has this preference!"

Li Yuan was dumbfounded. "What? The Tang Dynasty has an emperor who robbed his daughter-in-law. That's impossible. He's already an emperor, so he should have some dignity. Besides, he's already an emperor, so he has seen all kinds of women!"

Zhu Ming smiled and said, "How can it be impossible? This is a true record in history. In the mortal world, a concubine rides a horse and smiles. No one knows it is the lychee. Back then, I even deducted a point because of whether the word '骑' was pronounced as qi or ji."

"Which emperor did such a shameful thing? When I meet him, I will castrate him and send him to other dynasties to be a eunuch!" Li Yuan said angrily.

"Men all like to be eighteen. Look at the portraits here. I guess some of them are not even eighteen."

Li Yuan said that this was a bit unfair to him: "When I look for a queen, I must find someone who is suitable in all aspects. Although I have several concubines, they are not up to standard. I can only look outside the palace. Moreover, I must find an unmarried woman. This is not like your place. Most people get married at a young age. It is probably difficult to find someone who is the same age as me and has never been married. Moreover, if you are not married at this age, there must be something wrong with you."

"That's true!"

Li Yuan changed the subject: "Why did you come here suddenly? Is there something wrong?"

Zhu Ming nodded: "I have guests over there, they say they are guests from the Tang Dynasty, you know!"

"What, a guest from the Tang Dynasty? Doesn't that mean it's some emperor of the Tang Dynasty? Who is it? I'm a little curious, Old Li." Li Yuan asked in surprise.

"We don't even know who it is yet, so this doesn't mean you're invited to go greet them together!"

Li Yuan immediately stood up and said, "Wait a moment, I will take the whip and the jade first. If you are a qualified emperor, we will reward you. Otherwise, you will be whipped!"

Zhenguan Tang Dynasty
Li Shimin was having a big meal with Zhangsun Wugou in the back garden.

In the exquisite pavilion, the tables are filled with various delicious dishes, surrounded by blooming flowers and verdant plants, and the sunlight shines on them, creating a warm and romantic atmosphere.

"Life is quite romantic!" Zhu Ming said suddenly.

"Hmph, you've been spending all day indulging in romance and neglecting government affairs. It would be better for you to abdicate early and let others take over!" Li Yuan said unhappily, with a hint of blame in his tone.

When Li Shimin and Zhangsun Wugou heard this, their faces turned a little embarrassed.

They looked at each other, a hint of embarrassment flashing in their eyes.

The finally available free time to deepen our relationship was ruined.

"Greetings, Father, and Dragon Emperor. I will take my leave now!" Zhangsun Wugou stood up, bowed respectfully to Li Yuan, and then turned to leave. Her face flushed, and she was obviously a little shy because she was caught by Li Yuan. "Why is Father here?"

After watching Zhangsun Wugou leave, Li Yuan turned his gaze to Li Shimin and said in a serious tone: "Why, can't you come and sit for a while if you have nothing to do?"

"Of course not." Li Shimin hurriedly shook his head and shouted in his heart, "Father, please go back early if you are fine. It's always a bit awkward to see you because there is still a Li Yuan kept in the palace."

After the Xuanwu Gate Incident, Li Yuan was forced to abdicate.

Afterwards, Li Shimin sent people to guard him.

Zhu Ming said: "Actually, I came here for something."

Li Shimin's expression straightened up: "Brother Zhu, please feel free to speak up. As long as Shimin can help, I will do my best!"

"You don't have to look so serious. I just want you to greet some guests."

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment: "Welcoming guests? I wonder who this guest is?"

Zhu Ming shook his head: "We don't know yet, but it's most likely a certain Tang emperor. In other words, it should be your descendant."

"My descendants?" Li Shimin murmured, "It seems that the emperors after the Tang Dynasty are not very good. Each one is more stupid than the other. There is no most stupid, only more stupid."

"It's the same no matter which dynasty it is in. Everyone has some troublesome descendants."

"Take me to get the whip and belt, and see how I beat them. They don't govern the country well. I heard that they even lost Chang'an City. I'm really pissed off!"

Zhu Ming smiled slightly: "Then you have to be mentally prepared. Chang'an City was not lost just once, it was lost several times!"

Li Yuan and Li Shimin were shocked: "What? Chang'an was lost several times?"

"No more, no less, just six times!"

Li Yuan vomited blood: "He lost six times, how can this be absurd. Xiao Zhu, tell me, did Li Er lose Chang'an? Was he the first one to lose it? At that time, in the Weishui Alliance, did you give Li Er face? In fact, not only did you pay compensation, but you also lost Chang'an, right?"

Li Shimin was shocked: "Impossible! How could I lose Chang'an while I am in power? If so, I will abdicate now!"

Zhu Ming said: "You can rest assured that the Tang Dynasty never lost Chang'an in the early stage, and it only appeared in the middle and late stages."

Li Yuan angrily scolded: "If Jiancheng had been the emperor, perhaps this wouldn't have happened. It's all the fault of the second son."

Li Shimin was very upset, saying that my descendants are not your descendants.

If you hadn't started a rebellion, this wouldn't have happened.

Li Yuan and Li Shimin suddenly felt that it might not be a bad thing if the Tang Dynasty could end sooner.

Zhu Ming comforted him and said, "Think about it from another angle. At least the country lost its capital but was not destroyed. Moreover, it lost it six times and at least it was recaptured five times. This shows that the emperors who came after it were not completely useless."

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment: "It's not unreasonable. We were able to recapture the capital. At least the soldiers were able to fight hard battles, and the court was able to do something."

Li Shimin nodded: "Father is right. From this point of view, there are at least capable and skilled soldiers behind us. This is also a consolation. At least it is difficult for foreign tribes to invade."

Zhu Ming shook his head: "The second time Chang'an was lost, it was conquered by Tubo!"

Li Yuan and Li Shimin were shocked.

If it was an internal strife among Yanhuang, even if the national capital fell, there would usually not be large-scale massacres and looting.

However, if it is an invasion by foreign forces, the situation is unpredictable.

"How dare Tubo be so bold?"

"Are the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty just for show? What on earth did the emperor do to allow Chang'an to be captured by the enemy!"

"Where are the ministers in the court? How can they maintain their dignity when the country's capital is captured?"

"Humph, how dare the little Tubo come to the Central Plains to cause trouble? When I return to the court, I will definitely send a large army to wipe them out!"

Li Yuan and Li Shimin were extremely angry and wished they could find someone to vent their anger on immediately.

Li Yuan waved his arms and said, "Xiao Zhu, lead the way quickly. Let's go and see if this is the tyrant who lost Chang'an. If so, I can vent my anger. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well or eat well in the days to come!"

Li Shimin took a deep breath, calmed down and said, "Now that all the people of the Tang Dynasty are here, let's set off now. If he is really a tyrant, I will beat him to death!"

"No problem, but let me make this clear first. If you are really a tyrant, don't kill anyone on my side."

"Don't worry, how can it be so easy for the other party!"

A few seconds later, they returned to the modern era with the two of them.

In a dim warehouse.

There were two voices, a man and a woman.

"Strange, why did it suddenly get dark?"

"Mei Niang, isn't it a good idea to wait until it's dark? Otherwise, no one will find us."

"Your Majesty, are you focusing on the wrong thing? It was broad daylight just now, but suddenly it became pitch black. I'm afraid this is a bad sign!"

"It could be that the moon was eclipsed by a heavenly dog. You know, I never believe this. I just lied to others. If there really is such a huge heavenly dog, how come no one has discovered it?"

"Your Majesty, what you said makes sense, but it's better to have someone investigate. Mei Niang feels that this may not be a Taoist temple."

"Wait until I leave a mark on you!"

After a moment, the man shouted, "Someone, go and see what happened. Why did it become so dark out of nowhere?"

After a few seconds, no one answered.

The man frowned and shouted again.

Still no one answered.

"Assholes, these guards, have I been too nice to them? When I get back, I'm going to chop them all off!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. We haven't figured out the situation yet. Maybe they encountered something and had to leave. We should investigate it first."

"Mei Niang, you are too kind. No matter what happens, their duty is to stay outside and obey my orders at any time. Even if they need to leave due to something, they should notify me first!"

The woman agreed and said, "Your Majesty is right! However, I think we may have really encountered something. There was clearly a big bed over there before, but now it has disappeared. This doesn't seem to be the same house as before."

"Is this true? You are not trying to trick me!"

outside
Zhu Ming and two others had already arrived in front of the warehouse.

"I have to say, since I built these warehouses, I no longer have to go to the fields to look for the emperor. It saves time, effort, and is safer!" (End of this chapter)
