Chapter 247 End of the text
Repairing the soul is a very mysterious process. Xue Chen's biggest feeling is that his headache is gone, his body is better, he enjoys eating, and he gets sick less often.
He always can't help comparing his current state with his state before he traveled through time, and naturally regards the original owner as himself.
Except for his weak body, the original owner is very similar to him in every aspect. It's just that the setting of "weak and sickly" is too conspicuous, covering up all other details, and daily life has also changed. In
addition, Xue Chen has the original owner's memory, and he always looks it up from time to time. He can remember a few things from the past every now and then, which makes it even more difficult to distinguish.
After the new vest was opened, Xue Chen gained a new set of senses. With a slight dizziness, Xue Chen recalled things that did not belong to the "original owner" and himself.
[Silly and sweet? 】
System: 【Is this the new vest's personality? His face does look very sweet, and it doesn't feel out of place to play a silly and innocent character! 】
【Just wait for me! 】
System: 【What? 】
Xue Chen: 【Don't talk to me, I'm very angry now. 】
The system thought for a long time, and didn't know what was wrong with him. It could only attribute it to the abnormality of this person being sick again. It hugged itself silently and dared not say a word.
The location where the new vest was released was still the wilderness far away from human habitation.
Before switching over, Xue Chen had seen his card.
This vest's name is Lan Chang. Like the previous ones, he is not a healthy person, but his defects are not bad and do not affect his life much.
Lan Chang's three nodes can be seen. Compared with the flowers, plants and trees next to him, he is a little too short. He
is just like a half-grown child, and he has a childish face. He has a small frame, which is not incongruous. His body proportions are good, but he looks very young, about thirteen or fourteen years old.
The profile says that he is actually twenty-five years old, the oldest among his original body and many vests.
Lan Chang looked down at her hands and thought, fortunately, the age of the vest is fixed. If it really grows normally, this vest will be a bit awkward to use.
"Such a delicate pair of hands." Lan Chang clenched her fists, and then sighed, "Such a young voice."
System: [Isn't this just right? If your voice is the same as that of a normal twenty-year-old young man, it would be too incongruous.]
Xue Chen: [Silly naive, shut up. 】
System: 【Wuwu, why are you like this all of a sudden? I didn't provoke you, wuwu.】
Xue Chen said kindly: 【Tong, don't you think I look familiar?】
System: 【I haven't lost my memory! Did you have plastic surgery behind my back? Did you make yourself look like someone you know?】
No, that's boring.
Xue Chen didn't want to pay attention to it.
Lan Chang wore a light and breathable flowered silk gown with animal patterns embroidered on it. The slightly wide sleeves were tied up with leather wrist guards. She wore a Tang-style belt around her waist. The belt was inlaid with red gems and sparsely decorated with gold tassels. She wore
a pair of soft-soled brown leather boots on her feet, which were also inlaid with gems.
At that time, straight robes had just become fashionable, mostly worn by monks, and only a few scholars wore them. It was not until the Ming Dynasty that they became popular among the scholar class.
Lan Chang, like Yuan Feishuang, was at the forefront of fashion.
Lan Chang buckled her wrist guard, took out five locust stones from it, adjusted her belt, and touched a soft whip about two meters long.
System: [Wow, it matches your brother.]
Xue Chen: [Pretty good.]
He put the whip back and wrapped it around his waist a few times.
After looking at the sun for a while and figuring out his location, he rushed to the nearest town.
System: [What did you do? Why is the synchronization rate rising slowly and steadily?]
Xue Chen: [Stupid system, read the introduction yourself.]
The system went through the introduction.
Lan Chang was born into a wealthy and prestigious family. When he was young, his grandfather was framed by a villain. The emperor could not distinguish right from wrong. His grandfather was thrown into prison and died of illness not long after. The adults in the family were also exiled and died on the road. Only Lan Chang survived.
He looks innocent, but in fact he hates evil, is angry at the world and jealous of the world. He has a violent temper and acts in an extreme way. He only wants to rebel and kill the emperor to avenge his family.
The system starts thinking: [Isn't the emperor dead?]
Xue Chen: [Yes, so our family are all Xiao Lan's benefactors!]
System: [What does that have to do with the synchronization rate?]
Xue Chen: [I plan to go to the capital as quickly as possible to thank the original body and express my gratitude by the way. It's reasonable to worship the Taiping Palace, right? 】
System:【I still feel something is weird...】
Xue Chen:【Anyway, because of my previous actions, Xiaolan's background has been broken. He originally had a goal that was difficult to achieve in his lifetime, and he probably never thought it would come true. Suddenly one day, he achieved his wish inexplicably, and his life has lost its direction since then. Xiaolan is in a confused stage. It is not an exaggeration to say that her personality is being reshaped. Everything that happens is normal.】
System:【That makes sense.】
Xue Chen:【Give me [Intuition] and [Arithmetic].】
System:【What kind of setting is this?】
Xue Chen:【Don't worry about it, add it. Don't ask me when you produce skill points later, add them to these two. Let me know when they are full.】
System:【Oh. ]
Lan Shang bought a horse in the town and used a skill point to unlock [Riding]. He hurriedly and slowly improved his [Riding] skills to level 3 with his practice, and finally arrived in the capital before the enthronement ceremony.
The main body was just sick and couldn't bear the wind, so he sent Gong Jiu to greet him.
Gong Jiu came over on horseback and saw Lan Shang from a distance.
The young man was riding a pony, holding the reins gracefully.
After the two met their eyes, Lan Shang showed a cute smile.
Gong Jiu felt that if he rode a big horse, he wouldn't even be able to step on the saddle.
This young kid likes to show off, and his brother will definitely fall for it.
This person is more difficult to deal with than Pei Rui and Yuan Feishuang.
Gong Jiu rode his horse around him twice, looked him over from head to toe, and said coldly, "Follow me."
Lan Chang: "Okay."
Gong Jiu didn't care about his horse's short legs, and ran as usual, raising a cloud of dust.
Lan Chang knew the way to the palace, so he kept his own pace and walked slowly. When he arrived at the palace, Gong Jiu had been waiting here for a long time.
Lan Chang got off the horse and followed Gong Jiu into the palace.
He quietly compared his height with his brother's, and found that he was more than a head shorter. He said depressedly: [Xiao Lan is too short.]
System: [Isn't this good? At least he is healthy, and there is no sense of incongruity.]
Xue Chen: [Yeah, anyway, in the end... hehe.]
System: [Don't be like this, I'm really scared.]
Xue Chen: [Hehe. Gong Jiu
sent him to Xue Chen's place. He wanted to stay and see what his elder brother's attitude was towards this kid, but he was coaxed out by his elder brother gently but firmly.
His face was gloomy, and he secretly made up his mind. He couldn't beat Pei Rui and Yuan Feishuang, and this Lan Chang didn't know martial arts at all,
so he must not let him ride on his head! Lan Chang first perfunctorily performed the excitement after meeting his benefactor, and brushed up 15% synchronization rate at one time. Adding the brushing when he came, he finally brushed [Intuition] and [Arithmetic] to the maximum level, and there were 3 skill points left.
The system skills are very limited, and Xue Chen has summed up his experience.
[Arithmetic][Jurchen language] Skills that can be learned by artificial intelligence can be directly activated, and skills such as [Swordsmanship] and [Explosive Power] that can be obtained through training can also be activated, but skills related to personality, those with strong subjectivity, and those that break through the worldview cannot be directly obtained.
[Increase [Memory]." Xue Chen pinched Lan Chang's face.
Lan Chang's [Memory] has risen to level 2.
Xue Chen took out some books, and Lan Chang read quietly. He returned to the couch and slept again.
As it was getting dark, Lan Chang called the original body to get up. After the consciousness came online, Xue Chen controlled the two bodies to go to the front to eat.
When it came to the coronation ceremony, King Taiping was free instead, and he returned home to rest today.
When he saw Xue Chen bringing a stranger over, he looked at his son in confusion.
Xue Chen: [Alas. 】
The system was about to ask him why he sighed, but Lan Chang lifted up her skirt and knelt on the ground, "Benefactor!"
System: [...? ]
Prince Taiping was also shocked by him. He was stunned for a while before saying, "Who are you? Why do you call me like that?"
Lan Chang lowered her head and choked up, "My father is Lan Wenjue, and my grandfather is Lan Yujin. In the past, my grandfather offended Cai Jing's faction. The officials were incompetent and only did things based on their own preferences. They ignored justice and sent my grandfather to prison and exiled the whole family. In the end, my grandfather died tragically in prison, and my parents and relatives also died on the way to exile.
"I heard that the prince has always been dissatisfied with Cai Jing's officialdom. He has been appointing people based on their merits and eliminating malpractices during these days of acting as the government. He is the wise and virtuous ruler that the people are looking forward to. Your Highness, you have rehabilitated the Lan family and avenged me. From now on, my life belongs to Your Highness, and I am willing to serve You with my whole life!"
System: [When was the unjust case rehabilitated?]
Xue Chen: [I just did it during those days when I was on the road in disguise.]
After Cai Jing's death, many people blamed others for what they did. Many people tried to redress old cases. During this period of time, many cases were rehabilitated. The Prince of Taiping couldn't remember which ones they were. This was the first time he was asked to come and thank him.
He admired Lan Shang's gratitude, but felt that it was a bit too much. He waved his hand and said, "Even though your grandfather's case has not been rehabilitated, your family is upright and worthy of the heaven and earth. I just contributed a little. There is no need to care so much. "
Lan Chang lowered her head even more: "It's a piece of cake for you, but for me it's impossible even if I die."
"Get up quickly." King Taiping said, "What's your name?" "
Lan Chang: "Xue Yi."
King Taiping: "Isn't your surname Lan?"
"Dad, Xue Yi is the name I gave him." Xue Chen took a deep breath and recited the words he had prepared long ago: "I am weak and sickly, and I have no interest in women. I am afraid that I will not have any heirs in the future. I have already adopted him as my adopted son."
System: [So anxious? You and King Taiping are fighting first and then reporting to each other!]
Gong Jiu stood up suddenly: "I don't agree!"
Xue Chen: "I already adopted him. Sit down. "
Gong Jiu looked at him aggrievedly and sat down slowly.
Xue Chen: [There is no way, I can't have both my father and my brother. If I say I just want to adopt him as my adopted son, my father will approve, but my brother won't.]
System: [Won't you give me some cushion?]
Xue Chen: [The coronation ceremony is coming soon, and I will need to register my identity then. If I give you some cushion, my son will have no status.]
System: [He is older than you!]
Xue Chen: [So what? Let's not talk about his appearance.] He looks very young. In this era, choosing a godfather depends on power and character, and has nothing to do with age.
Prince Taiping didn't care. He seldom interfered with his children's private affairs. It was just that Xue Chen's status was different now. If he trusted others as he did before, he was afraid that something might happen.
He winked at Xue Chen and didn't agree immediately.
Xue Chen pretended to be prepared and said, "I have known Xue Yi for many years. Although we don't meet often, we often exchange letters. I know his temper and personality very well. You will understand it after you have been with him for a while."
"Okay." Prince Taiping said, "But there is no need to change your surname."
Lan Chang said, "Everything that happened in the past is like yesterday's death. In the past, I was blinded by hatred. Only after I met my father did I know how to live. You avenged me. The me of the past has gone with my family. From now on, I will only live for you."
System: [You really can shout that out! Are you as emotionally cold as Xiaoqi?]
Xue Chen: [Don't worry.]
"Everything that happened in the past is like yesterday's death" is from "The Four Lessons of Liaofan", which was written by Yuan Liaofan in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty. This book did not exist in that dynasty.
Yuan Liaofan was originally called Yuan Biao, and later changed to Yuan Huang. When he was young, someone told him that he could hold a certain official position, but that was the limit. He then changed his career to take the imperial examination, and it really came true step by step. He successfully got that position, but could not go any further. Later,
he talked about this with a monk friend, and the monk said, "You are really a mortal. Everything in your life can be calculated accurately. "
Yuan Huang then realized that changing his name would not change his fate. Only by changing himself first could he change his fate. From then on, he became enlightened and changed his name to Yuan Liaofan.
Lan Chang changed her name, which changed the fate of this vest and the fate of the system.
Xue Chen must trick it once!
He didn't care whether Lan Chang's reasons were strong or not, he just forced himself to stick to the Taiping Palace. Even if the character background was not like it is now, he would find a way to get close.
"He used to have no relatives and lived alone. Now that he has changed his name, he will have a new family. I think this is great." Xue Chen said with a smile, "Yier, why don't you call someone."
Xue Chen tried his best to trick the system. He endured the discomfort and controlled Lan Chang to say, "Grandpa."
Then he turned to Gong Jiu and suppressed the shame in his heart: "Little Dad."
Gong Jiu's gloomy expression miraculously improved.
He looked at Lan Chang, then at Xue Chen, thinking that he probably wouldn't have any offspring, so it would be good to keep him by his side.
Gong Jiu asked, "What's the character in your name?"
Xue Chen smiled and looked at him, "Yi from Lianyi, what do you think?"
Gong Jiu: "Very good."
The two brothers accepted it faster than each other, and King Taiping couldn't help but worry, are these two children not planning to marry and have children?
In two days, he will be the emperor, and there is a throne to inherit in the family!
Seeing that his father looked like he had nothing to live for, Xue Chen suggested, "Let Yi'er follow you, he has some talent in governing the country, he should be able to help."
Lan Chang nodded repeatedly and looked at him expectantly, "Grandpa, I'm very useful."
King Taiping: "Okay."
Having a grandson after a meal, what's the matter?
Although Chen'er is kind, he is not blind, and he has his own opinions on many things. He wanted to see what ability this kid had that could impress Chen Er and make him do this.
-
Pei Rui and others rushed all the way back and just caught up with the coronation ceremony of King Taiping.
Xie Heng was busy putting an end to the war, rebuilding towns, taking in refugees, contacting local officials, and supervising them to implement national policies. Each of these was a big deal and he really couldn't leave. In addition, he had inconvenient legs and feet, the journey was tiring, and he didn't like the hardship, so he stayed there and didn't come.
After returning to the capital, Yun Heyan went to find the original body, Liu Yixuan went home to change into an official uniform and went directly to the palace, Pei Rui went with the flow, walking and stopping with the crowd, and suddenly heard someone calling him.
"Xiao Mian!"
It was Zhui Ming.
Pei Rui tilted his head.
He seemed to be far away from here, separated by many voices, "Xiao Mian, here!"
"Where?" Pei Rui whispered.
The noise was too noisy. Pei Rui couldn't see, but his hearing was extremely sensitive. He was dizzy from so many people.
Zhui Ming couldn't hear.
He shouted loudly: "Cui Ming?"
Suddenly someone patted his shoulder, and Zhui Ming hugged him with a smile, "I'm here."
Pei Rui: "It's too noisy, I don't know the way."
Zhui Ming held his hand, "I'll lead the way for you. Do you want to go to the princes, or to the Shenhou Mansion?"
Pei Rui: "Follow you."
"Okay." Zhui Ming led him to Wuqing's direction, "The construction of the capital of the past dynasties is to build the ancestral temple on the left and the community temple on the right. The officials must first go to the community temple to worship the heaven and earth, and then go to the Taimiao to worship the ancestors. The officials must also accompany them outside. There are also many guards and palace servants here, so there are too many people."
Pei Rui: "Yeah."
"The emperor has already carried the Xue family into the imperial temple." Zhui Ming paused, and then said, "These are all minor details. No matter what the dead do, it will not affect the living. But I heard that a child suddenly appeared in the eldest prince's place. He is not young. Did you know?"
Pei Rui: "Yes."
System: [Transfer to manual.]
Xue Chen: [He changed his words so quickly. I am a little uncomfortable.]
System: [Me too. When I heard him say the emperor, I thought he was talking about Zhao Ji. It took me a long time to realize that he was referring to your father.] When
Prince Taiping became the emperor, Pei Rui, the adopted son, also rose to prominence. He was slow to react and simple-minded. Zhui Ming was afraid that he would be involved in some struggles and would not know if he was bullied.
Zhui Ming reminded: "The little prince is only fourteen or fifteen years old this year. The eldest prince has been ill for many years and rarely interacts with others. He is only a few years older than him. The little prince is very likely not the eldest prince's biological child."
Pei Rui: "He is adopted like me."
Zhui Ming: "Have you seen him?"
Pei Rui continued to improve the lie told by the original body: "My eldest brother mentioned it. They knew each other before, and only recently became father and son."
Zhui Ming wanted to warn him a few words, but the situation in the Taiping King's family was too complicated. From top to bottom, everyone likes to adopt children. Except for the twins, there is no biological child.
He is not a material for conspiracy and struggle. In terms of it, he is only slightly better than Xiao Mian. He is at the bottom of the list in the Shenhou Mansion, and even worse outside. The help he can provide to Xiao Mian is really limited.
Let's take it one step at a time.
The two stood with the other officials, and listened to the loud shouts of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, kneeling together, kneeling here, and then standing in another place.
After a ceremony, it was more tiring than fighting outside.
Pei Rui followed the people from the Divine Marquis's Mansion to the carriage, and the people sent by the entity also came over. "The Grand Prince has ordered that Your Highness stay in the palace for one day today. Please forgive me , Your Highness."
Zhuge Zhengwo said, "It's right. On such an important day, you should be with your family."
The man smiled and bowed his hands, "Your Highness has made great contributions in the front and has worked diligently in the Divine Police Department. I think it won't be long before you can be granted a title. I would like to congratulate Your Highness here first."
Today, not only did the King of Taiping ascend the throne and the reign was changed to Yuanye, but Xue Chen and Gong Jiu were also granted the title of prince. Xue Chen was named "King Heng" and Gong Jiu was named "King Ying". The rest of the people were not granted titles.
Pei Rui did not respond, and Zhuge Zhengwo answered for him, "Thank you very much."
Pei Rui was taken into the palace and went to the palace assigned to him.
During the ceremony, the vests could be lazy, but the main body knelt firmly for a long time
. After coming back, he didn't want to move at all, and even wanted to shut off the senses of the other vests. All the vests went to bed early that day, but the main body still didn't get enough sleep.
Because it was still dark, his personal maid Xiaohe came in to call him, "Your Highness, it's time to go to court."
Xue Chen swore: [Life is worse than before. Why did I spend so much effort to push my father to the throne?]
The system just restarted and was confused: [I don't know.]
Xue Chen: [I can't stand it. I quit.]
After saying that, he lay back down and said to Xiao He weakly: "Call for sickness. I'll sleep for a while."
On the first day of the new era, Xue Chen skipped work.
Pei Rui went to see the emperor and his new nephew, and went back to the Shenbu Division to fish.
Lan Chang, who officially changed his name to Xue Yi, was not so idle. He had to make some achievements in accordance with the wishes of the inheritor. Although he did not have a formal position yet and could only be considered a temporary worker, he had already started to roll up his sleeves.
Xue Yi read many books, combined with the knowledge he learned from modern times, and submitted a memorial for reform.
For a monarch, morality is not the first priority. The most important thing is wisdom and prudence.
However, it is impossible to always meet a wise monarch, and a person will not be wise all his life. As long as he is a human being, he will make mistakes.
Nothing in this world is eternal. Even the classes that are difficult to break are always rotating.
The same is true for the system.
All systems are good at the beginning of their establishment. As time goes by, they will gradually lose their original appearance and it is impossible to do it once and for all.
Xue Yi borrowed from the democratic systems of many regions and dynasties, and wrote this memorial based on the actual situation.
The prime minister, the Privy Council and other institutions were abolished, leaving only the six ministries and the supervisory agencies. The six ministers became the actual prime ministers, and they checked and balanced each other with the supervisory officials to prevent one person from monopolizing power. The emperor makes the final decision, and it can only be implemented after approval.
The specific extent to which it can be achieved still needs to be improved according to the actual situation, but compared with the original redundant officials, it is already much better.
Xue Chen skillfully increased the synchronization rate for Xue Yi. When the emperor approved his proposal and prepared to implement it, the system sent a message that the synchronization rate was full.
Xue Yi's panel has all the skills maxed out.
[Intuition] Level 5, [Arithmetic] Level 5, [Memory] Level 5, [Whip Skills] Level 5, [Riding Skills] Level 5, [Endurance] Level 5, [Internal Strength] Level 3, [Calligraphy] Level 3.
Many of them were improved by his own practice without consuming skill points.
The system was very excited: [Congratulations, you have completed all the tasks! You can make a wish now, whether you want to go home, stay here and continue playing, or any other wish, as long as the main system can do it, it will all be fulfilled! 】
【Ha. 】 Xue Chen sneered and controlled Xue Yi to come to the main body.
Pei Rui and Yun Heyan were also here.
The two vests and the main body stood in a circle around Xue Yi, as if they were doing some terrible ritual.
Xue Chen: 【I want you to stay, get out of my mind, put yourself into Lan Chang's vest, and restore all your memories. 】
System: 【Ah? 】
Xue Chen: 【Hurry up. 】
The system was a little scared, but couldn't stand Xue Chen's constant urging, so it fed back his wish to the upper body, then left Xue Chen's body and put itself into the vest in the middle.
Part of Xue Chen's consciousness returned to his body. After Xue Yi opened her eyes, he rushed up without saying anything and hugged the system to beat it.
"Silly naive, silly naive, I'll let you be silly!"
The system sobbed: "Don't mess around, you have increased the combat power of this body very high, be careful or I will take action!"
Xue Chen was ready, controlling Pei Rui and Yun Heyan to hold him down and continue beating.
"Silly naive! If it weren't for you, how could I have failed the mission and my soul be incomplete! I said that your main system would not do charity, this is all compensation for me! I deserve it!"
The system curled up with its head in its arms: "Wuwuwu, it hurts, stop hitting me, I was wrong."
It recovered its memory during the beating.
There is no such thing as a naive host. The first host was Xue Chen himself. However, he was often sick at that time and had never come into contact with people. He was also an ancient man. He had many difficulties in doing tasks in the modern world. He could only rely on the system and eventually failed under its leadership.
The following few discarded vests were basically the bodies used by Xue Chen in the punishment world.
The system became more and more panicked and felt that it was doomed.
It stopped struggling and closed its eyes quietly.
Xue Chen vented his anger and stopped because he was tired. He sat on the stool at the back. "I was wondering why I am such a tolerant person, but I always dislike you. It's retribution."
System: "Woo."
Xue Chen: "Okay, let's just call it a day. From now on, you will be called Xue Yi and start a new life here."
The system tilted its head and thought about it, and suddenly realized that something was wrong. "Ah? Do I have to call you dad?"
"Yes." Xue Chen picked up the teacup and said slowly: "You still have to call my brother little daddy and my father grandpa."
System: "Beep!"
System: "Why can't I swear!"
Xue Chen finished his tea, walked to the system, patted his shoulder, and said softly: "Tong, when my father gets tired, my Xue family's kingdom will be handed over to you."
The system was shocked: "What!!"
Xue Chen: "I have given you so many skills, use them well. As a system, you have strong computing power, can connect to the Internet, and can contact the upper when necessary. No one is more suitable to be the emperor in the Circular Universe than you. Come on, work hard while you are still an intern. You have followed me for so long, you should know how to act, right? Don't embarrass me."
The system cried even more miserably.
Whose host would use the final reward to enslave the system!
How did it end up with such a host?
-After
Emperor Yuan Ye succeeded to the throne, he has been promoting reforms. The emperor, the six ministries, and the supervision gradually took shape of the separation of powers. Regardless of whether the successor is wise or not, as long as the system is wise, the correct national policy can be implemented.
Local construction has gradually improved, and there is a mature process for dealing with natural disasters. It became easier
and easier to be the emperor, and Emperor Yuan Ye's desire to abdicate became stronger and stronger. Three years later, he passed the throne to Xue Yi, the son of King Heng, and returned to his hometown to recuperate. After
the young emperor ascended the throne, he was diligent in government affairs, worked diligently every day, reconciled the powers of various departments, and devoted his greatest energy to maintaining the balance of the court. This emperor has been for a long, long time...
