Chapter 338 My Great Tang Dynasty perished after only three generations?

Chapter 338 My Great Tang Dynasty will perish after three generations?

"Emperor Tang, if you want to understand the Tang Dynasty, no one knows it better than Emperor Zhou. You should ask Emperor Zhou." Zhao Kuangyin said with a strange expression.

He eagerly awaited to see Li Yuan's expression when he learned that the Tang Dynasty he had founded had been replaced by his daughter-in-law, or rather, his granddaughter-in-law, who had established the Wu Zhou Dynasty.

Wu Zetian looked at Zhao Kuangyin, and she was well aware of their thoughts.

Wu Zetian also had complex feelings towards Li Yuan.

Her father was a staunch supporter of Li Yuan, but unfortunately, because he was a merchant, he was unable to enter the core of the political system.

Wanting to rise in status, she entered the palace and became a concubine of Li Shimin. After Li Shimin passed away, she became the empress of Li Zhi, eventually replacing the Tang dynasty and establishing the Wu Zhou dynasty.

Li Yuan looked at Wu Zetian and said, "Emperor Zhou, please tell me about the basic situation of the Tang Dynasty."

Wu Zetian looked at Li Yuan and said calmly, "Emperor of Tang, I wonder how long you have established the Tang Dynasty."

"It was established less than a year ago."

Wu Zetian nodded and began to explain the basic situation of the early Tang Dynasty.

Li Yuan and the others sat in chairs listening to Wu Zetian explain the history of the Tang Dynasty.

When Li Yuan heard that Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin had led their troops to victory in every battle and defeated all the forces surrounding the Tang Dynasty, the smile on his face never stopped.

With two such capable sons, it was foreseeable that the Tang Dynasty would be a golden age.

When Wu Zetian recounted the Xuanwu Gate Incident, she said that Li Shimin had killed Li Jiancheng and his brother, forced them to abdicate, and eventually became the Retired Emperor.

Li Yuan's smile vanished, replaced by rage. He never imagined that his second son would murder his brother and imprison his father.

Ignoring Li Yuan's anger, Wu Zetian spoke of Li Shimin's reign of Zhenguan, how he conquered neighboring countries and earned the title of Heavenly Khan.

She then talked about Li Zhi, and when she did, she avoided talking about herself and only talked about the events that occurred during Li Zhi's reign.

After finishing her story about Li Zhi, Wu Zetian stopped.

"Emperor Zhou, why did you stop? After Li Zhi's death, who succeeded to the throne of the Tang Dynasty?" Li Yuan asked.

Old Zhu and Old Zhao stared at Wu Zetian, wanting to see how she would respond.

"After Li Zhi, I succeeded to the throne. I changed the name of Tang to Zhou and established the Great Zhou Dynasty."

After hearing this, Li Yuan was first stunned, and then found it unbelievable.

Zhu Yuanzhang and his people did not expect Wu Zetian to be so direct, so bluntly stating that she had replaced the Li Tang dynasty and established the Wu Zhou dynasty.

"How is this possible? How did you replace the Li Tang dynasty?" Li Yuan couldn't believe it.

From the narrative just now, there was no mention of Wu Zetian; her replacement of the Li Tang dynasty was too sudden.

"Because I am Emperor Gaozong's empress."

Li Yuan was even more incredulous after hearing this; how could an empress possibly become emperor?

Li Yuan looked at Zhu De and Zhao Ziyang, wanting to confirm the truth of the matter.

"Empress Zhou was indeed Li Zhi's empress. She was the first woman in history to be called empress, as far as I know," Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Li Yuan was even more distressed at this moment than when he heard about the fratricidal conflict between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin.

"My Great Tang Dynasty perished after only three generations?" Li Yuan said blankly.

"No, in the later years of the Zhou Dynasty, Emperor Zhou was no longer able to control the court. Some former officials who still longed for the Tang Dynasty launched a coup, which allowed the Tang Dynasty to be restored," Zhao Kuangyin said.

Next, Zhao Kuangyin explained the history of the late Tang Dynasty to Li Yuan and Wu Zetian.

Zhao Kuangyin quickly finished explaining the history of the Tang Dynasty, but he did not continue explaining the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.

After listening to Zhao Kuangyin's explanation, Li Yuan and Wu Zetian seemed lost in thought.

"The immortal said he summoned us here only to let us know our destiny and then change some things. I wonder what the immortal wants us to change?" Wu Zetian asked.

"There's nothing else to it but to prevent history from repeating itself, just as the Tang emperor prevented his two sons from killing each other, and the Zhou emperor ensured the Zhou dynasty could continue to exist," Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"That's all?"

"Is that all? What do you think the immortals wanted you to do by bringing you here?"

The immortals only asked them to change their own fate, which was indeed a surprise to them.

Upon arriving at the immortal's abode, they understood their own destiny and the future of the dynasty they had established.

Most importantly, they received an opportunity from the immortals, which allowed them to exchange the nation's fortune for cultivation resources.

As long as their martial arts cultivation improves, their lifespan will increase, and with an increased lifespan, they can continue to control the dynasty.

After Li Yuan and Wu Zetian had gathered all the necessary information, they bid farewell to Zhu Yuanzhang and the others.

Before long, the Time-Space Pavilion was deserted.

Upon returning to the Zhou Dynasty, Wu Zetian made no changes; her first priority was to strengthen her own power.

Only by being strong can one control everything.

When Li Yuan returned to the Tang Dynasty, he originally wanted to summon his two sons and give them a good scolding. However, he then remembered that his second son was away fighting with troops, so he could only wait until his second son returned.

The thought of how to resolve the conflict between his two sons gave Li Yuan a headache.

Let's put that aside for now; strengthening our own capabilities is the key.

Therefore, they all used the nation's fortune to exchange for cultivation resources to enhance their own strength.

That day, Zhou Yongcheng noticed that the river of time and space had become more turbulent. It wasn't just the time and space segments he influenced that became turbulent; the entire river of time and space after the Song and Ming dynasties had become turbulent.

The existence of this phenomenon indicates that all timelines after the Song and Ming dynasties have been affected; otherwise, the timelines after the Song and Ming dynasties would not have experienced such intense fluctuations.

The commotion in the River of Time and Space was not only being paid attention to by Zhou Yongcheng, but also by the big shots in this great world.

They ventured into the River of Time to investigate, but the fluctuations were too intense, so they dared not go too deep. They only dared to observe the edge of the River of Time to see what caused such drastic changes.

Zhou Yongcheng sat in the pavilion, watching the several supreme experts standing at the edge of the River of Time and Space surveying the situation, but he ignored them.

Why has the river of time and space become so turbulent?

"The fluctuations in the River of Time and Space are too intense, and we cannot detect the specific situation. Since even using the power of the Heavenly Dao is ineffective."

Although they entered the River of Time, they did not notice that the River of Time was in someone's yard.

They are situated within the river of time and space, and cannot see what lies beyond it.

The river of time in each world is an unknown place, and those who can enter the river of time are all the strongest beings in the world.

The location of the River of Time and Space is undetectable. Since they are supreme experts, if they get lost in the River of Time and Space, they will either be forever trapped in it or be obliterated by the power of time and space stirred up by it.

Therefore, even the most powerful beings do not easily enter the River of Time.

"It seems that even the Heavenly Dao has been affected. This is the first time in countless eons that the river of time and space has experienced such a great disturbance."

"Forget it, let it be, let nature take its course."

Then it disappeared at the edge of the river of time and space.
