Chapter 10 Division
Gao Mang finally understood the origin of the Tianyun Department of the Tang Dynasty, and finally understood why the psychics he had met, Lei Haiqing, Dong Tinglan, Li Guinian, and Li Shierniang, all came from the Pear Garden.
The reason why these psychics were so respectful when they saw him was not because Gao Mang was the next commander of the Tianyun Secretary, but because he was Sima Chengzhen’s disciple!
If you only read historical books, Sima Chengzhen, as the third generation of imperial master, was just a deified figure. However, at this moment, Gao Mang truly understood that this Taoist leader in the Tang Dynasty, this old charlatan, had done so many things for the Tang Dynasty.
It is amazing that he can protect so many psychics and save them from slaughter.
If Gao Mang understands it correctly, the Tianyun Department, composed of superpowers, is equivalent to the ASCHS secret service of the Tang Dynasty.
With Sima Chengzhen's efforts, the Tianyun Department of the Tang Dynasty gradually got on the right track and became a huge and strict organization.
The awakened people kept attacking, hunting and killing alien beasts, killing aliens who endangered the people of the Tang Dynasty and threatened the Tang Dynasty's country.
They even went to Japan and the deserts of the Western Regions, and destroyed dozens of evil formations of the Martial Empress.
And what was growing with the Tianyun Department was the prosperous national power of the Tang Dynasty.
The prosperous Tang Dynasty was certainly due to the great talent and civil and military achievements of Emperor Li Longji, but it is undeniable that the Tang Dynasty fortune released from Tianshu also played a great role, and the Tianyun Department of the Tang Dynasty made an indelible contribution.
Of course, those who can accept the nourishment of the Tang Dynasty's fortunes have harsh conditions in addition to opportunities.
With the 713 years of demolishing Tianshu as the boundary, only the underage people under the age of 18 in 713 can receive the nourishment of spiritual energy and become the awakened ones of heaven.
In other words, the oldest person in Tianxing should be born in 695 AD, such as Dong Da and Dong Tinglan.
Among those born after 713, there are also some people who wake up in heaven, Gao Mang, and they are the youngest wake up in heaven so far.
"Li Bai, Li Taibai, is a awake person?"
"yes."
"Wang Wei and Wang Mojie are the awakened people in heaven?"
"yes."
"Du Fu and Du Zimei are awakened?" Sima Chengzhen nodded again, but a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Du Zimei was only listed on the secret list of the Awakening Ones not long ago. Even the emperor may not have seen this list, but this kid actually knew it?
After Gao Mang received his master's clear answer, he immediately became happy and laughed.
Just say, poetic immortals, poetic Buddhas, and poetic saints, they must be those who wake up in heaven, otherwise how overcast the Tang Dynasty would be.
Sima Chengzhen said so much in one breath, and his eyes showed a look of fatigue, and the beast flames in the Qilin bronze furnace also dimmed.
After a moment of silence, his clear eyes looked towards the direction of the balcony palace, and he smiled coldly and said, "Boy, do you know the intention of Emperor Li Longji to build the balcony palace?"
Gao Mang changed his mind and nodded, "The birds are gone, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys are cooked."
Li Longji in history has this nature. After inheriting the throne, he built the Ten Kings House in Chang'an, raised his brothers like pigs, and built the Huayou Xianghui Tower in Xingqing Palace to show the world the harmony between him and his brothers. He really acted like that and established that.
Li Longji built a balcony palace for Sima Chengzhen, just saying, "You are old and it's time to live your life and hand over the power."
Sima Chengzhen sighed and said, "After more than ten years of hard work, most of the Tianyun Department in the Tang Dynasty were incorporated, and the evil formation of Empress Wu was destroyed. The Tang Dynasty was booming, and the sea was clear and the river was calm. How could Li Longji be willing to be an outsider to continue to control the Tianyun Department?"
Seven years ago, when the construction of the balcony palace was first built, Sima Chengzhen announced his retirement and transferred the power of the Tianyun Department to Li Longji's eldest son, King Qing Li Cong.
"Li Cong is just a temporary candidate. Although his face was destroyed and he lost his qualification as a crown prince, he was Li Longji's eldest son. He would inevitably have unreasonable thoughts when he was in power. Therefore, I accepted Princess Yuzhen as his disciple and planned to let Princess Yuzhen take over the Tianyun Department in the future."
Sima Chengzhen looked at Gao Mang opposite him, with a smile in his eyes, "But I didn't expect that you, a little clever ghost, fell from the sky, and were the best candidate to take over the Tianyun Department."
Gao Mang didn't know whether to cry or laugh after hearing the old charlatan's words. Today's Tianyunsi is not a hot commodity, but a hot potato.
"Boy, do you know what your biggest advantage is?" Sima Chengzhen suddenly asked.
The biggest advantage?
I am extremely powerful, I have a memory hive, can I peek into the secrets of heaven?
Gao Mang was not sure and shook his head.
Sima Chengzhen said seriously: "Your biggest advantage is your age!"
Seeing Gao Mang's look of surprise, Sima Chengzhen continued: "I will arrange for you to enter the palace. I am better than the emperor. Your every word, action, every move will be exposed to the emperor's eyes. Only in this way will they lose their guard against you. Only in this way can you take back the power of the Tianyun Department bit by bit!"
Gao Mang looked bitter and pulled his hair hard, and he knew that things were not that simple!
Sima Chengzhen sighed: "For seven years, under the deliberate suppression of the emperor, Tianyun Department has become a decoration of the powerful and powerful. But boy, you must understand that Tianyun Department has never been a vassal of the imperial power. Tianyun Department has only one mission, that is, to protect my 40 million people of the Tang Dynasty and my Chinese clothes, and this is the meaning of my Taoist existence!"
Gao Mang curled his lips, so the important task of police and punishing evil and maintaining world peace is left to me?
The old charlatan dug this time was too big. Gao Mang had no idea and accidentally buried himself.
"How can Taoist inaction be understood?" Sima Chengzhen suddenly asked.
Gao Mang said, "Wuwei is not to do nothing, but to follow the times."
Sima Chengzhen praised: "Good!"
Gao Mang couldn't help rolling his eyes. Why did he be kind? You said lightly, is it that easy to follow the trend?
If Li Longji finds something wrong and gives me a knife, your words will come true.
Thinking of Gao Mang's crotch, he couldn't help but feel shocked.
Sima Chengzhen said in a solemn voice: "Boy, you descended from the sky and were born in time. This is the will of heaven. Revitalizing the Tianyun Department of the Tang Dynasty is the greatest meaning of your life in this life!"
Gao Mang couldn't help but curl his lips, come on, why don't you say that others are hell?
Is it bad to have a good time to have a drink? Is it bad to have some soap and perfume? Is it bad to recite poems and essays? I can also make a fortune by stealing some Li Du’s works, okay, why take such a difficult road?
Of course, Gao Mang didn't want to refuse, nor did he refuse, but he really didn't like the old charlatan saying so heavily.
The topics about the destiny of the people and the country are already very heavy.
Under the prosperous appearance of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, there are many hidden dangers. The Tang people who were drunk and dreaming of death would never have thought that in twenty years they would lose everything, and even their dignity as Tang people would be gone.
Every time I read the history of the Tang Dynasty, Gao Mang couldn't stand it anymore when he saw the Anshi Rebellion. The heaviness was like watching the most beautiful things with his own eyes, and the things he loved were broken bit by bit, but he could do nothing.
The inner treasury burned into beautiful ashes, and the sky streets were covered with the bones of the ministers.
In the last winter, the good sons of ten counties were made of blood as the water in Chen Taoze.
After that, the alien race invaded several times, the two capitals fell many times, and rebellions broke out one after another, and the Tang Dynasty was destroyed in a tragic rain.
Thinking of the white-haired Tang soldiers who were still standing in the Western Regions Protectorate after the fall of the Western Regions, Gao Mang felt like tears were falling.
