The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

"One hundred million?"

Lin Feng had considered that the system's rewards might increase with the number of successful challenges, but he never imagined it.

This increase is not a doubling, but a tenfold increase!

From this perspective, the three-bedroom apartment I just bought seems a bit low-end.

Change!

I'd trade him a big villa for a better one!

After spending half a day finding a house I liked, the third consideration came to mind.

Meanwhile, the skies over the various dynasties, which had been quiet for several days, began to stir again.

A line of writing appeared in the sky.

[Top Ten Worst Rulers in History]

Eighth: The second emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty.

The creator of the "Why Not Eat Meat Porridge" theory, who allowed Empress Jia Nanfeng to seize power, directly led to the War of the Eight Princes and indirectly caused the Five Barbarian Invasions.

Emperor Hui of the Western Jin Dynasty, Sima Zhong!

Western Jin Dynasty?

Sima?

During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao fell into deep thought upon seeing this surname.

He glanced at Sima Yi, who was about to strike, with some confusion.

It shouldn't be that old man, right?

The War of the Eight Princes is not yet clear, but the Five Barbarian Invasions are easy to understand.

Five tribes from the grasslands united to invade the Central Plains.

But what is the current situation of those tribes on the grasslands?

Not to mention him, even Sun Quan and Liu Bei were not taken seriously at all.

To put it politely, they are a nomadic force; to put it bluntly, they are slaves who don't cost money and whose population grows on their own!

Whether it was the Sun-Liu alliance or Cao Cao, whenever they were short of slaves, they would send people to go around and search for them.

Could such a nomadic tribe from the grasslands wreak havoc in the Central Plains?

What's going on?

Cao Cao's gaze lingered on Sima Yi for only a moment before shifting away.

It shouldn't be that old man!

As he turned his gaze back to the sky, Sima Yi quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Something's wrong, something's not right with this canopy!

Are you suggesting we expose his past?

The Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties are considered by many to be a romantic era.

But in reality, people ate during the Northern and Southern Dynasties!

Perhaps it was a vow made by the Luo River, or perhaps it was retribution for killing the emperor in the street, but the Sima family was unable to maintain its glory.

After Sima Yan died, Sima Zhong succeeded to the throne, but he never possessed the power that belonged to an emperor.

Sima Zhong allowed Empress Jia Nanfeng to manage the inner court, win over celebrities, and collude with members of the imperial clan to support her faction.

From beginning to end, the power was firmly in the hands of this empress.

Because of Sima Zhong's incompetence, Jia Nanfeng's tyranny was not concealed at all. In addition, her treacherous plot to depose the crown prince caused everyone to feel insecure, which led to the War of the Eight Princes and weakened the Western Jin Dynasty to the extreme!

The Central Plains, which should have been unified, began to fall into a state of division and fragmentation that lasted for more than three hundred years!

The subsequent chaos caused by the Five Barbarian Invasions left nine out of ten households in the Central Plains devastated!

Men were slaves, women were food.

There weren't many words appearing on the sky.

But the further they looked, the more fear gripped everyone.

Especially the last sentence.

The phrase "men are slaves" is easy to understand, but what does "women are food" mean?

Is that what we understand it to mean?

Li Shimin's face was gloomy, and unusually, he did not respond to the barrage of questions from Ying Zheng on the screen.

He had also read the history of the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties many times.

It is no exaggeration to say that nine out of ten houses in the Central Plains were empty; in fact, the true extent of the Five Barbarian Invasions was far beyond what this single sentence could describe!

Once a man falls into their hands, there is only one path for him: to become a slave. After he dies from exhaustion, his body is simply dumped on the ground.

Women are either playthings or food for everyone.

After the writing on the screen disappeared, instead of showing Sima Zhong's usual absurd behavior or Jia Nanfeng's actions, the show gave everyone a direct experience of the Central Plains after the Five Barbarian Invasions.

White bones lie exposed in the wilderness, and for a thousand miles there is not a rooster's crow!

In the wilderness, countless white bones can be seen everywhere, and corpses that have not yet completely decomposed are being devoured by countless vultures.

It was clearly nighttime, yet as the scene shifted, there wasn't a single light shining for miles around!

Could it be that everyone within a thousand miles has died out?

The camera panned for an unknown distance before finally spotting a village, at which point many people nearly vomited.

Dozens of corpses were found hanging from trees at the village entrance.

Looking further into the village, dozens of men were tied together with ropes, while the remaining women were being violated by hundreds of men from the grassland tribes.

Those who couldn't endure the abuse and died under these people's assaults were thrown directly into a large, boiling pot not far away.

Those who were thrown into the cauldron were called...

Two-legged sheep!

"Beasts! These beasts!"

Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth.

"Looks like we went too easy on them. These beasts deserve to be wiped out!"

"The Three Kingdoms period exhausted the spirit of heroes, while the Jin Dynasty produced mostly cowards!"

"But in this era where cowards abound, it is the common people who suffer the most!"

Li Shimin exhaled, as if to release all the pent-up emotions in his heart.

The Wei, Jin, and Northern and Southern Dynasties: Romantic?

No, that's a bloody history of the Central Plains!

"Li Si, draft an imperial edict for me."

Ying Zheng's gaze remained fixed on the scene in the sky, as if he was unwilling to miss even the slightest detail.

Li Si bowed and waited quietly.

After a long silence, Ying Zheng finally spoke.

"From the time of my reign, all descendants of the Great Qin shall not arbitrarily move the border guards. The Great Qin may perish, but the border must not be breached!"

"Anyone who arbitrarily moves the border guards and allows the Xiongnu to breach the pass shall be punished by the whole world!"

"what!?"

Upon hearing the last sentence, Li Si exclaimed in shock.

what does this mean?

If the borders of the Great Qin are lost in the future, anyone can openly rebel based on this decree!

The world should condemn it; the significance of these five words is immense!

The drafting of this decree meant that once the border was breached, the Qin Dynasty would be doomed!

"Draft the decree as I have instructed. If you cannot even defend the border, then you are not worthy to be emperor!"

Ying Zheng's tone became increasingly resolute.

From initial hesitation to unwavering determination.

If we can't even defend the border, if we can't even stop the Xiongnu, then what right do we have to be emperors!

"These people are still too inflexible. They just want to bow their heads and act like grandsons. A true man should be able to bend and stretch. Qin Hui, don't you agree?"

Zhao Gou's face was full of disdain.

In his view, the emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty was simply too stupid.

If you can't beat them, just admit your mistake and pay up. If that doesn't work, kneel down and kowtow a few times.

What is there that we won't do if it brings peace?

“There are not many wise rulers like Your Majesty in this world. That is why Emperor Hui of Jin is on the list of foolish rulers by the immortals, while Your Majesty will surely be on the list of wise rulers!”

Qin Hui nodded repeatedly.

He was completely unmoved by the scene in the picture.

What does it matter to him if many ordinary people die?

Even if the borders of the Great Song Dynasty were breached, let alone the scenes in the sky, he would still be able to rest easy!

Don't ask, the answer is that we made two preparations!

He was being called "Your Majesty Zhao Gou" on one side and "Father Jurchen" on the other. No matter the outcome, he was in an invincible position!
