Chapter 337 Settlement
[Luo Xin passed away and was posthumously named Wen. He was posthumously conferred the title of king. He was the fourth regent in your family, the second time a false emperor appeared in your family, and the first of your descendants to be posthumously conferred the title of king. The records he left in history are so rich and colorful, and his influence on the Chinese nation is so great. He has an indelible position in the history of your family and the history of the Chinese nation in the future.
Start settlement, you get 4000 luck points, you get the earth-level item - Dinghai Shenzhen. 】
Looking at this long string of system messages, Ji Zhao felt a little emotional. From Luo's experience over the past thousand years, he had fully come to a conclusion, that is, a person's achievements in life not only depend on personal efforts, but also on following the trend of history.
Among the five most outstanding young men of this generation, it was Luo Xin who eventually reached the highest position.
Luo Xin lived after the Zhou Dynasty, and especially when the head of the family, Luo Ling, decided that the family would significantly interfere in the politics of the Han Dynasty, this allowed him to display his abilities in many areas.
Especially by chance, he became the regent and received the recognition that no other son of the Luo family had ever received before.
Looking back a thousand years ago, many generations of Luo Hou possessed abilities that were no less than Luo Xin's. However, due to the conditions and realities at the time, they ended their lives as wise kings in an unremarkable manner.
Luo Min Gong Luo Zhi was actually not that bad, he was just mediocre, but in the end, in that special period of time, he became the one who shouldered everything.
[Earth Rank·Stabilizing Sea Needle: Holding this item can make the rivers, lakes and seas within a certain range calm and peaceful. The range and effect are determined by the amount of Luck Points consumed.]
As expected.
A regent from a different family, who is almost as capable as Ji Zhao in terms of regent, is naturally worthy of an earth-grade item.
However, the fantasy fairy tale mythological effects of the props are getting stronger and stronger. Ji Zhao even suspects that these things are the beggar version of the artifacts of Conferred the Gods and Journey to the West made by the system.
The purpose of this Dinghaishen item in ensuring the survival of the family is probably to escape directly overseas?
However, the effect on the entire civilization is very strong. In real history, the Yuan Dynasty, a country with such powerful military force, conquered a small country like Fuso, but its entire army was wiped out because of a storm on the sea. The Tang Dynasty sent envoys to Fuso, but also lost countless manpower due to the unpredictable weather at sea.
With this artifact, the entire Zhu Xia dared not say much. After all, if you think about it, you can understand that the more people you protect, the more luck points you will consume. But at least the Luo family can travel unimpeded across the ocean.
Ji Zhao put the props in his pocket. For the current Luo family, props are still relatively important. Now there is basically no lottery. The luck points are mainly used to apply ancestral blessings and activate props.
Ji Zhao used to think that ancestral blessing was a variant of the attribute card, which was intended to ensure that the attributes of the family members were above average. Combined with the Luo family's education, the family members would at least be above average.
But Ji Zhao has always been very curious about one thing.
That is, can the Luo family's education really guarantee that there will be no unfilial descendants for countless years?
Especially since he did not always appear in the world.
After countless years of observation, Ji Zhao discovered that the blessings of his ancestors actually influenced the behavior of his family members through changes in family traditions.
With the blessing of their ancestors, the positive family traditions among the Luo family members are constantly communicated and strengthened, and the spirit of unity is also manifested under such circumstances. Even if they are far away from the family, they can still be influenced by the blessing of their ancestors.
In the previous life of Dream of the Red Chamber, Tanchun said, "If a big family like ours is attacked from outside, it will not be killed immediately. The ancients said, 'A centipede will not die even if it is stiff'. This is the truth. We must first commit suicide at home before we can be completely defeated."
Internal strife and corruption have always been the two most powerful weapons in destroying a family.
However, the blessing of the ancestors directly eliminated these two points from the root. The most likely things to destroy the family in the future are troubled times and a mad emperor. At that time, they would just run away and send family members to save the family.
However, no normal person would dare to attack Zhaocheng now.
After understanding this, Ji Zhao felt more and more that the function of ancestors' blessing was the biggest cheat of the system.
No wonder this function consumes so many luck points. Fortunately, Bang Zhou has accumulated a very deep foundation, otherwise he might not be able to bear it.
[Your status in the world has been established by the new dynasty. This is the first time that a new dynasty has conferred a title on an important historical figure of the previous dynasty. You have received 1,000 luck points, and your family's status in the eyes of the world has increased again.]
Liu Heng's conferment of titles on Ji Zhao did have an effect on Ji Zhao. It clarified the status of the emperor and had a very obvious effect in increasing the status of the Luo family in the eyes of the world.
Especially after Ji Zhao became the emperor, the upper limit of the honor for the Luo family members was raised.
Although Luo's son is not clear about it now, Ji Zhao is very clear. Now they are all princes, and there is no difference between one-character kings and two-character kings.
However, as the system gradually improves in the future, especially when a large number of titles are needed, titles with differentiated treatment such as prince and duke will definitely appear.
For example, the current titles of Chehou are all county marquises, but in the later period, there appeared a large number of township marquises and pavilion marquises, which are basically honorary Chehou titles.
"Another generation has ended. Decades and decades have passed. Is three thousand years still far away? What will the next generation of the Luo family do?"
Ji Zhao felt that he might be the only person who could witness a family's continuous creation throughout the course of history, and even he found this experience full of interest.
Tiandao and Ji Zhao have reached an agreement not to interfere with each other's actions, which means that there will be no more dark hands targeting the Luo family.
However, Ji Zhao could not interfere with the adverse effects of the world's own great changes on the Luo family, as well as the possible impact of the world's own internal logic on the Luo family, except by using props.
"There is only one person who is not good at politics left in Chang'an City. A Ling, what do you want to do?"
Ji Zhao finally closed his eyes slowly. The turbulent late Qin Dynasty and early Han Dynasty were over. It was time for him to sleep and wake up when the war between the Han Dynasty and the Huns started again.
…
Chang'an City.
In the past, the most prominent family in this city was the Luo family. There were three marquises in the family, and the three brothers were all high-ranking officials. Luo Xin was the regent prime minister, and they had the great general Han Xin outside. They were extremely powerful.
But within just three years, Marquis Ying, Marquis Anyang, and Marquis Huaiyin all passed away, the regent prime minister Marquis Dong'e passed away, and Marquis Shouguang resigned, and the entire Chang'an city seemed to be deserted by the Luo family.
The figure with the stigmata seemed to disappear all of a sudden.
Not to mention that the entire court officials and dignitaries were not used to it, even the people of Chang'an City were somewhat uncomfortable with this sudden change. Many of these people were former Luo people who migrated here and had a natural sense of belonging to the Holy Scar.
Then many people discovered that there was actually a son of the Luo family who remained in Chang'an City. He was the cousin of the current emperor, the legitimate son of Dong'a Hou Luo Xin, a teenager who had not yet been crowned.
His Majesty the Emperor gave him a token to enter and exit the palace and appointed him as the Shizhong, with whom he was almost inseparable. His name was Luo Jing.
Luo Jing is Luo Xin's legitimate son. Since Luo Xin is a typical son born late in life, although Luo Jing is young, he is of a high generation and is the 34th generation grandson of the Luo family. His eldest cousin is Luo Ling's son, who is almost entering his 50s.
Luo Jing does not have the same talent as Luo Xin in both politics and military affairs.
Luo Xin originally planned to follow the example of his brothers and send Luo Jing back to Zhaocheng, but after considering the suggestions from all parties, he finally kept Luo Jing in Chang'an City.
However, although Luo Jing was close to the emperor and served as a minister, he never expressed his opinions on important military and national affairs that he was not good at, which was equivalent to punching in at work and slacking off.
…
Changle Palace.
On the long and high steps, a handsome young man was walking towards the hall. Looking young, his skin was crystal clear and even glowed in the sun, not to mention the dazzling holy mark.
It is Luo Jing, the only legitimate son of the Luo family who remains in Chang'an City.
Luo Jing's practical ability is indeed not high. He is at the stage where he can brag about his family background, but when it comes to real work, he is just talk. But he is not an incompetent person. After all, his ancestors bless him, and there is no problem. It is because he is extremely biased.
From ancient times to the present, there have always been many such people. Luo Minggong is such a person, an academic monarch.
The same is true of Li Bai and Su Shi in later generations. They cannot be said to be strong in practical abilities, but no one will deny their talents.
Luo Jing is also such a talented person, and Luo Jing is also very good-looking, having perfectly inherited the appearance advantages of his parents.
He resembles his mother a bit, and looks somewhat like Emperor Liu Heng. They don't look like cousins, but more like real brothers.
Liu Heng liked his cousin very much, not only because of Luo Xin, but also because Luo Jing himself was very likable.
Moreover, looking at the holy mark on Luo Jing's forehead and the face that was somewhat similar to his own, it was as if he saw another self, which motivated him all the time.
"My Lord, may you be well!"
Luo Jing walked into the palace, and people all bowed to him along the way. Luo Jing, who inherited the title of Marquis of Dong'e, was still very respected in Chang'an City. The blessing left to him by Luo Xin was so great that basically, as long as he didn't act up, he could do whatever he wanted.
Luo Jing's return to the palace was like going home. After he entered the palace, he was ready to start work.
As a close minister of the emperor, although Liu Heng did not ask him to do any work, it was not Luo Jing's style to slack off every day and get paid for nothing. Naturally, he still had some work to do, such as checking if there were any memorials from the outer court that were urgent to present to the emperor, and then bringing them in.
He asked the emperor's attendant, and was told that there was nothing important happening today. Then he walked into the inner hall leisurely.
"Ah Jing, you're here?"
When Liu Heng saw him, he immediately smiled and said, "Come here quickly, I have something to ask you."
