Chapter 259: In the Dark, the Gears Turn
Li Ranran finished watching the video while feeling sleepy. She didn't expect the video to be so long. If she had known the length of the video earlier, she might have chosen a shorter one.
……
Through the light screen video, people from various dynasties have more or less gained a certain understanding of what is happening beyond the land under their feet.
The emperor, who has great ambitions to expand territory, has already begun preparations for sending troops.
In autumn, it is advisable to send troops.
The Qin army started a war against the Xiongnu. Meng Tian was the general, and under him were Han Xin and Xiang Yu who were sent to gain experience.
Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, also had a war plan against the Xiongnu. The Xiongnu had been defeated by Wei Qing and Huo Qubing. But was Liu Che the emperor who would not fight if the Xiongnu told him to?
In order to complete the great cause of unification and prove to the world that the Jin Dynasty was not useless, Emperor Wu of Jin, Sima Yan, thought that attacking the well-established Eastern Wu was the best way to divert attention.
The ministers in the court who supported sending troops all said that only Lu Kang in Dongwu needed to be cautious, and the rest of them were not to be feared.
After some hesitation, Sima Yan ordered the troops to be dispatched in the fourth year of Taishi next year.
Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian, recognized Crown Prince Yang Yong and did his best to train him. He also brought Yang Yong's eldest son, Prince of Changning Yang Yan, and his fifth son, Prince of Xiangcheng Yang Ke, to his side.
His Majesty Emperor Taizong Li Shimin's court was full of talented people, both civil and military. Most of the military generals were fighting for who would lead the troops, while most of the civil officials were implementing new policies.
Li Shimin wanted to send Xuanzang to the west to seek the Dharma, of course, not just because he advocated Buddhism, but for other purposes. It's just that he hasn't found another important companion besides Xuanzang yet.
Zhao Kuangyin had a very good attitude towards the former monarch. When he learned that Qian Chu, the former King of Wuyue and now King of Huaihai, was willing to help develop people's livelihood in Liangzhe, he was very generous and asked Qian Chu to hand over the content he wrote to Prime Minister Zhao Pu.
As for Li Yu, who was still dissatisfied with the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin just treated him as a talented man.
When Emperor Hongwu Zhu Yuanzhang learned that the large ship was completed, he prepared to take his ministers to the Longjiang Baochuan Factory to take a look.
With this treasure ship, the historical event of "Zheng He's Voyages to the West" must have taken place during his Hongwu reign. As for Japan, it was time to resolve the issue.
During the reign of Emperor Daoguang, the court officials disagreed, and Lin Zexu, who was devoted to the people, was quite disappointed. Meanwhile, Zuo Zongtang and Li Hongzhang, who were still young, were still studying in their hometown.
Although the emperor in Beijing issued an order prohibiting the reading of Western religions and vigorously searching for a man named Hong Xiuquan, the people in the mountainous area of Guangxi were far away and ignored the order.
The most amazing thing is that an alien object was found in the mountains of Guangxi...
……
Special forces travel is not suitable for Li Ranran. As soon as he returned home, he felt sore all over and the only thing on his mind was to lie down...
Lying on the comfortable bed, Li Ranran was watching videos comfortably.
"I will never arrange a trip in such a short time again..."
Watching the video aimlessly...
[This is the butterfly effect of history~The Golden Book and Iron Certificate took effect 600 years later]
[Unexpectedly, the gears of destiny for the rise of New China began to turn when Emperor Zhaozong of Tang bestowed the golden medal of immunity from death.
During the Tang Dynasty, Qian Liu suppressed the rebellion in the Wu Yue area. In order to reward him, Emperor Zhaozong of Tang gave him a gold-lettered iron certificate.
This gold-written iron certificate is made up of 333 gold characters inlaid in regular script. It can save Qian Liu from nine deaths and his descendants from three deaths. It is the most useful thing left to future generations.
The butterfly effect of history began here.
The Tang Dynasty fell, the Song Dynasty came to power, the Liao Dynasty, the Western Xia Dynasty, and the Jin Dynasty successively appeared on the historical stage, and the Mongols rose and unified the world. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, a beggar led a group of brothers to establish the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor.
Hundreds of years later, the descendants of the Qian family also served as officials in the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang was very ruthless towards corrupt officials. Because of the shortage of tax grain, the Qian family was sentenced to have their property confiscated.
At this time, the descendants of the Qian family, with the idea of trying everything possible, took out the golden medal of immunity from death bestowed by Emperor Zhaozong of Tang Dynasty - the Golden Book and Iron Certificate - and asked to see Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought: The golden medal of immunity from death that he himself bestowed was useless, so why would he care about your Tang Dynasty...?!
He also thought that if he recognized this golden book and iron certificate, wouldn’t it be equivalent to acknowledging his status as the legitimate emperor?
So Zhu Yuanzhang immediately revoked the order against the Qian family and saved the Qian family.
The Qian family has produced many outstanding people, including:
The Father of Chinese Missiles—Qian Xuesen
The Father of China's Atomic Bomb - Qian Sanqiang
Famous Chinese scholars—Qian Zhongshu, Qian Xuantong, Qian Mu
The Father of Chinese Mechanics - Qian Weichang
They are all descendants of the Qian family...
Who would have thought that the golden book and iron certificate would inadvertently turn the gears of fate 600 years later.
In 1964, China's first atomic bomb was successfully detonated, breaking the nuclear monopoly and nuclear blackmail of the United States, the Soviet Union and other countries, and enhancing my country's international status. It has become the cornerstone of my country's national defense and protected the Chinese people from nuclear threats.
＜Even Zhu Yuanzhang himself probably couldn’t believe that such a small decision he made would affect future generations for hundreds of years… His words “save life” meant saving the entire Chinese land＞
＜Here I have to mention Qian Qianyi [狗头] who said the water was too cold and his scalp was itchy＞
＜Hahahaha, are you going to go big with me, brother? [Covering face] It’s hard to say about Qian Qianyi, and it’s not easy to say about the people of the Donglin Party in the late Ming Dynasty either, hahaha＞
＜Tang Zhaozong: What should I give him? [Thinking] How about giving him a golden medal of immunity from death? I think it will be very useful.
Zhu Yuanzhang: Why don't I just accept it? I feel like it will be useful in the future.
＜It was destined that Emperor Zhaozong of Tang also made a significant contribution to my country's nuclear development? [Eat melon]＞
＜This butterfly effect is so far away that if you don’t say it this way, you may not really associate it＞
＜Why did Zhu Yuanzhang acknowledge it? Because there was no imperial seal, and the golden medal of immunity from death was recognized by the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang, who believed that he inherited the world of the Tang and Song Dynasties, must have acknowledged it＞
＜Zhu Yuanzhang’s certificate of immunity from death is in his hands. If he wants you to die, you die. No need to argue. But the Qian family’s certificate of immunity from death is not in his hands. Of course, it is useful＞
＜The successful atomic bomb explosion symbolizes that the Chinese people have truly stood up!!!＞
＜Long live the motherland, salute to the scientists, salute to the ancestors! ＞
