Of course, these are just some ordinary history books, and they cover up many things. After all, the so-called history is just a little girl who can be dressed up by others, and many things are not clear.
For example, how Emperor Shenwu set up the Xuanjing Division to suppress the Zhou Dynasty and consolidate power after attacking the grassland in the north. There are many sects and aristocratic families in the world of immortality who have inherited a long history and have profound foundations. However, even such sects have not been able to survive in a short period of time. It is simply unreasonable to be swept away by the imperial court in just a few years.
In fact, the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty can be divided into two stages. There was one stage before Emperor Shenwu succeeded to the throne and another stage after his succession.
Before Emperor Shenwu, the Great Zhou Dynasty was just a secular dynasty. The power of cultivating immortals was limited to the royal family's enshrinement pavilion. However, the sects of the aristocratic families were intertwined and deeply connected. The imperial court only maintained the name of orthodoxy and was unable to suppress the local government.
After Emperor Shenwu succeeded to the throne, he reformed the internal affairs, developed the military, attacked the grasslands in the north, and suppressed rebellions in various places in just a few years. Later, he integrated the imperial enshrinement pavilion, established the Xuanjing Division, swept away many aristocratic sects in the spiritual world, and established the Dragon Palace. The air-spirit-law system monitors the world and completes the centralization of power.
During that period, the imperial army was invincible, and even the world of immortals was not allowed to retreat. This was also the time when the dynasty was at its most powerful since the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Afterwards, it was time to recuperate and recuperate, and the majesty of the imperial court became increasingly popular among the people.
However, all this is obviously inconsistent with common sense.
Ordinary people may not think it is a big deal. It is a common thing for a dynasty to dominate the world and to revive a country.
However, if the Royal Enshrinement Pavilion is so powerful, why did the previous emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty not use the power of the Royal Enshrinement Pavilion to eliminate chaos in various places?
The Great Zhou Dynasty has been inherited for more than 500 years, and there were more than 20 emperors, including some who were wise, divine, and wise. But none of them could do it. How could Emperor Shenwu accomplish it in just twenty years? Many emperors could not achieve civil and military skills in their lifetime.
Moreover, the imperial court that Su Ming saw now was not as powerful as recorded in the history books. Just the mass graves where Yin Qi was everywhere outside the imperial capital, and the evil heretics were hidden, already explained something.
There must be something wrong with this.
In the next few days, Su Ming kept exploring the library. Although many things had been erased, he finally found some clues in the vast library.
All this points to twenty years ago. Twenty years ago, there was an earth-shattering turmoil, and the world of immortality has still not recovered.
In fact, not only the world of immortality, but also the great Zhou Dynasty, which was at its peak at that time, was greatly affected, but the specific impact was blank, as if it had been erased.
At this moment, Su Ming couldn't help but think of the time when he made a move on Suzaku Street but was suppressed by the court's legal network. If according to historical records, the imperial court's legal network gathered the incense of the gods and the imperial dragon's energy, and even the power of the soul was suppressed.
However, in that first encounter, he tore up the French Open. Although he also knew that the court's French Open had not yet fully recovered, such a French Open was too far from what was described in the book. You must know that this is the imperial capital and the center of Kyushu. , is the place where the dragon energy of the dynasty is the strongest. How could this French net be so weak?
Forty years ago, the imperial court suppressed even the mighty Yuan Shen. How could it be that he, the real Yuan Ying, could not be suppressed and was crushed by one of his moves.
If it hadn't been for that confrontation, Su Ming would never have noticed the weakness of the court's legal network. Ordinary monks don't dare to face the French Open at all, and if the monks do evil, they don't need the French Open to take action. The Xuanjing Division cooperates with the three major sects to deal with it.
Although the Zhou Dynasty pursued a policy of rest and recuperation after sweeping the world forty years ago. The weapons were stored in the treasury and the horses were released to the Nanshan Mountains. Emperor Shenwu was not as wise and powerful as he was back then. However, he was not too mediocre, did not build wonders, abused the people's power, and did not resort to militancy. , causing widespread resentment among the people, the most they can do is cultivate immortality and take pills.
But just like that, it will never make the imperial court so weak.
So, everything should be related to the turmoil that happened twenty years ago. What exactly happened twenty years ago?
In fact, from Su Ming's point of view, although the current Great Zhou seems powerful and still suppresses the world, it is far less powerful than forty years ago.
Su Ming had never been to the local prefectures and counties, so he didn't know the situation, but it must not be too good.
Combining the memories he had devoured before with the records in these books, Su Ming came to a conclusion: The reason why the current Great Zhou Dynasty is able to suppress the world is not only because all the immortal cultivation forces were swept away and the Xuanjing Division was famous for its evil reputation, but also because The vitality of the cultivating world was severely damaged at the beginning, and its strength has never been restored. After all, without the participation of cultivators, ordinary civil unrest is easy to deal with.
But what is the reason that can make such a powerful empire weak?
In addition, Emperor Shenwu's purpose in selecting a national master was unusual. Until now, he had only met Emperor Shenwu twice, let alone knowing what Emperor Shenwu's purpose was.
The water in Dazhou is too deep, and it is far from being as simple as it seems.
Thinking of this, Su Ming let out a breath and suppressed all his conjectures. Now, instead of thinking about these things, he had to find an opportunity to intervene in the court as soon as possible. Only by participating in the court could he influence the court and steal his luck.
But this matter cannot be rushed for a while, so we can only figure it out slowly.
"Master Imperial Master." Stepping out of the library, the guard standing at the door saluted quickly.
Su Ming nodded and didn't say anything more. Over the past few months, he had already become familiar with the Imperial City and was a frequent visitor to the library, so there was no need to say anything more.
However, every time he came, the guards and some of the maids he met in the palace looked at him strangely. At first, Su Ming thought it was because he was so handsome that he attracted attention.
But as time went by, he discovered that this was not the case. There was another reason. It was just that he had just arrived, and it was not easy for Su Ming to ask or investigate. Even if he asked, they might not dare to say that this imperial city was a magical place after all. Emperor Wu's territory, and he was only a national master in name only.
Afterwards, he passed through many palaces and met many palace maids on the way. They still had the same strange look on their faces. Su Ming was used to it.
······
The Hall of Nourishing Heart.
The old emperor was half leaning on the dragon chair, closing his eyes and concentrating. Beside him, the chamberlain was whispering something.
After the chamberlain finished his report, it took a long time before the old emperor opened his eyes, opened his mouth, yawned, and waved, "You can go down first."
"promise."
After the chamberlain left, the old emperor's eyes suddenly became deep and far-sighted, revealing an unspeakable wisdom, "It's true that he is a loose cultivator from the outside world and doesn't understand anything, but not everything will be recorded in history books." Yes, after waiting for him for so long, it’s time to meet him.”
