Chapter 738 If You Don't Rebel, You Won't Survive
"Live to over seventy? That's really useless. Haha, I didn't expect I could live another forty years. Not bad, not bad," Li Ji nodded with satisfaction. He was quite satisfied with his own life span.
When Fan Wencheng heard that he would live to be in his seventies, he stopped worrying about other things. Even though Zhou Yu had the medicine, he might not live as long as them.
Zhou Yu looked at the two of them, his eyes filled with envy. No, how come they could live so long?
In front of the sky curtain, there is a group of ancestors who are envious in various ways. They envy every long-lived person equally. There are so many long-lived people, why can't there be one more like them?
"Ahem, when Sun Quan learned that Senior Zhou Yu had passed away, he was extremely grief-stricken and personally put on mourning clothes to greet Senior Zhou Yu's coffin.
After Sun Quan became emperor, he repeatedly paid tribute to Zhou Yu in front of his ministers, saying that if it were not for you, he would not have become emperor.
It's such a pity that you died too early.
After you died, you were buried in Lujiang. Xiao Qiao has been living in Lujiang with your children and has never left.
Senior Zhou Yu, this is all about your deeds," Li Wu looked at Zhou Yu, hoping that Senior Zhou Yu could live longer this time.
"Thank you, little immortal," Zhou Yu bowed.
"Senior Zhou Yu, you are welcome. Let us toast you a glass," Li Wu said, raising his glass. The three of them followed suit, finally being able to drink this delicious wine.
They are all wine lovers.
"Good wine!"
"Then I'll also toast to Senior Zhou Yu," Li Ji said. Several people began to toast each other. Li Wu blinked her eyes. She seriously suspected that these three seniors just wanted to drink.
After drinking several cups, he finally smiled with satisfaction.
Only Li Wu was left with a confused look on his face, which was very funny.
The ancestors in front of the sky curtain also shook their heads helplessly. They all knew that they were craving for wine and were using it as an excuse to drink.
Not to mention, they were also craving for wine, but unfortunately the wine in the food town was limited and a little expensive. Most importantly, it was easily out of stock, and if they were a little slow, it would be gone.
Most of the wines in that gourmet town are sweet wines, not as strong as the ones I drank at the fairy’s place. I miss the wine at the fairy’s place.
It’s a pity that those who have been there once basically have no chance to go again, and even if they do, it will not be their turn.
"Ahem, three seniors, please drink less and don't get drunk," Li Wu said helplessly. She didn't understand why the wine was so delicious. She felt it was burning in her throat and the taste was strange. She couldn't drink it and could only drink the wine like a beverage.
"Little immortal, don't worry, such a small amount of wine won't make you drunk," Li Ji said, putting down the wine glass. Seeing this, Zhou Yu and Fan Wencheng stopped drinking.
This wine is really too strong. You can't drink too much.
"Otherwise, eat meat? You still have to drink wine in moderation," Li Wu just made this suggestion. After all, she knew that the ancestors would not get drunk in front of her.
"Then listen to the little immortal. Eat meat, eat meat. Eat it all, eat with big mouthfuls," Li Ji unceremoniously picked up some meat for a few people.
Li Wu just laughed. She was used to it. The ancestors spoke so loudly that it felt like they were arguing.
Fortunately, she understands this and is used to it, otherwise she would be scared to death if someone spoke to her so loudly.
Li Wu also ate something. Watching the ancestors eat made her feel very hungry. The food they ate seemed very delicious, but to her, the food she ate seemed just so-so.
"Then let me tell you about your deeds, Senior Li Ji?" Li Wu looked at Li Ji and asked.
"Little immortal, please tell us," but finally the story of his deeds came to be told. Thinking about how he could live for so many years, I was actually quite curious about what happened next.
He is young now.
“Senior Li Ji, in your lifetime, you have lived through Emperor Gaozu of Tang, Li Yuan; Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin; Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi; and finally Empress Wu Zetian. None of these emperors failed to show respect to you.
You have made great military achievements and entered the Lingyan Pavilion twice.
Senior Li Ji, your original name was Xu Shiji, with the courtesy name Maogong. Later, you were given the surname Li. In order to avoid the name of Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, you removed the word "Shi" and changed your name to Li Ji.
He was from Lihu, Caozhou, and moved to Weinan County, Huazhou at the end of the Sui Dynasty.
Senior Li Ji, your family is wealthy and very rich.
History records that "the family had many servants and stored thousands of bushels of chestnuts." Senior Li Ji, you and your father were both kind-hearted people who helped the poor, no matter how distant the relationship was.
At the end of Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty, the whole country was in chaos. Zhai Rang raised an army in Wagangzhai to rebel against Sui Dynasty. Senior Li Ji and many of your men went to join him.
How should I put it? At that time, if you didn't rebel, you really couldn't survive. Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty did all those things. He was only in power for a few years, but the people were almost killed by him.
During the reign of Emperor Yang of Sui, there were approximately 890 million households. Assuming a family has six people, the population should be more than 6 million.
There were still a lot of them, but later they were almost all killed by Emperor Yang of Sui. Until Emperor Taizong of Tang came to power, there were only 380 households and more than million people died. If this emperor was not rebelled against, who would be rebelled against?
If you don’t fight back, you will die.”
Li Wu just felt extremely terrified. More than 30 million people died, and some of them were not recorded.
There are so many people in later generations who try to whitewash Emperor Yang of Sui, saying that his crimes were committed in his own time but his merits will last for generations to come, but she doesn't want to say anything.
Zhou Yu stared at Li Ji with wide eyes, as if asking if this was true. He seemed to have heard the immortal mention it before, but he couldn't remember it clearly. It also seemed that so many people died in the Tang Dynasty.
More than 30 million, he couldn't even imagine it. How many people were there in the late Eastern Han Dynasty? Not even more than 30 million.
Mainly because of the war, many people died.
Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty broke down his defenses in front of the sky curtain. "Rebellious son, rebellious son!" He had long known what the rebellious son had done. After hearing it again, no matter how many times he had heard it, he was still so angry that he vomited blood. Sure enough, Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted.
Empress Dugu felt dizzy and almost fainted from anger.
The barrage was full of criticisms against Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty. Many of their dynasties did not even have more than 30 million people. It was only after gradual development that they had a large population. As a result, so many people died all of a sudden, and it was only a few years.
The people were trembling with fear and tears streaming down their cheeks. How could they have a good life when faced with such a tyrant and incompetent ruler?
Fortunately, fortunately, now that we have the little immortal, those foolish and tyrannical emperors dare not appear. As long as they do something absurd, many people will revolt on the barrage. As long as the emperor is not too outrageous, the people will not care so much.
Sky
Fan Wencheng also sighed, thinking that the common people were the most pitiful.
"Well, we should rebel," Zhou Yu agreed. It would be unreasonable not to rebel.
Li Ji did not respond, but thought about that time when many people were skinny and many starved to death. They also had alms, but they could not do so all the time.
At that time, common people could be seen everywhere. Many of them could no longer survive. If they did not rebel, they would not be able to survive.
