Through Yang Zhen's introduction, Chen Qi and the future Divine Dragon Empress Wu Zetian could be considered to have gotten to know each other.
At the same time, Chen Qi also knew the general situation of his cousin.
In history, Wu Zetian's life was very miserable. When she was twelve years old, her father, Wu Shi, died. As for his two half-brothers and two cousins, they were adding insult to injury and abused Wu Zetian and her mother all day.
In order to avoid the abuse of her two elder brothers and cousin, Wu Zetian moved back to Chang 'an with her mother from Jingzhou.
Even so, the Wu brothers were still unwilling to let them go.
In the end, Wu Zetian couldn't bear it anymore and entered the palace at the age of fourteen to fight for her future.
The timeline of the Journey to the West was slightly different from that of the historical world. Therefore, it was already the 13th year of Zhenguan, and Wu Zetian still had not entered the palace. Instead, she had just arrived in Chang 'an with her mother.
However, this was not a big deal. After all, the concept of time in the world of Journey to the West was a little ridiculous.
Besides, it was a funny thing to be stuck in a God World.
Putting aside the problem of the flow of time in the three worlds of heaven, earth, and man, as well as the large, medium, and small worlds, just the world of the West itself was not something that could be described by a historical world's view of time.
In addition, according to the settings of the Journey to the West, Li Shiming also obtained huge benefits in the Journey to the West.
For example, twenty years of lifespan.
Since Li Shiming had lived for another 20 years, it was normal for Wu Zetian to appear two years later.
The only thing Chen Qi could not figure out was Wu Zetian's background.
If this was a historical world, then Wu Zetian, who had the support of the Hongnong Yang family, might have been able to rise up in the harem, become a hen in the morning, control the government, and finally ascend the throne, becoming the first empress in the history of China.
However, in this world of the West, if they wanted to do this, it was not something that the Hongnong Yang family could do.
"Buddhist Sect, Dao Sect, or other factions?”
"It can't be that a demonic sect really appeared, right?”
After sending off Yang Wu and the other two, Chen Qi returned to his residence and couldn't help but fall into deep thought. In his heart, he was speculating about the power behind his cousin.
If he was not wrong, his cousin was really not simple.
He seemed to be unskilled in cultivation, but in fact, he had quite a strong cultivation. It was just that he hid it well.
If Chen Qi had not cultivated the Postnatal Sixty-four Divination and had not been augmented by the high-grade spiritual power of the Righteousness Qi, he would not have been able to discover it.
Of course, it would be somewhat arbitrary to conclude that Wu Yuanhua had the support of other forces just because he had cultivated.
After all, Martial Warrior He was also a founding hero of the Tang Dynasty. Not only was he born into an aristocratic family, but he was also a minister of the Ministry of Works and was conferred the title of Duke of Ying.
As the daughter of a warrior, it was normal for her to have cultivated.
However, what was unusual was that Wu Yuanhua did not cultivate martial arts, but a strange power.
"It should be the power of a Dao technique!"
Chen Qi muttered.
As the saying went, martial arts were easy to find, but immortal cultivation was hard to find!
Because martial arts were very common among the human race, even ordinary people of the Great Tang could easily learn some simple martial arts body-tempering methods.
However, the Immortal Dao was different. Most of them were controlled by Immortal Dao sects, and even aristocratic families had a hard time obtaining true inheritances.
Wu Yuanhua's cultivation of mantras had obviously reached an extremely deep level and was extremely profound. It was impossible for him to not have inherited it himself.
"Forget it. Why are you thinking so much?"
"There are countless immortals, buddhas, and gods who are paying attention to the replacement of the throne. It's very likely that there's a mighty figure standing behind my cousin.”
"Rather than worrying about others, it's better to worry about yourself. Earning some silver as soon as possible and moving out of this Yang Family Courtyard is the right path.”
Chen Qi shook his head and felt that he was worrying for nothing.
The change of the Human King's position was a huge matter even in the entire three worlds.
Since there was someone who dared to plot against Li Tang for the throne when the country was prosperous.
It would be strange if his methods were simple.
With his small body involved, he probably wouldn't even be able to get a bubble.
Therefore, it was better to keep a respectful distance!
In addition, Chen Qi suspected that there was a Buddhist shadow behind his cousin.
The reason was very simple. In the real historical world, after Wu Zetian proclaimed himself emperor, the monks of the Eastern Wei Temple, such as Faming, wrote four volumes of the Great Cloud Scripture. They said that Wu Zetian was the incarnation of Maitreya Buddha and should be the master of the world.
After that, Wu Zetian issued an order to set up a Great Cloud Temple in each of the two capitals and states. The Great Cloud Scripture was stored in the temple, and monks were ordered to explain it, raising the status of Buddhism above Taoism.
In September of the same year, the officials, the people, the clan members, the leaders of the four barbarians, the monks, the Taoists, etc. all knelt down and begged Wu Zetian to change the name of the country to Zhou. From then on, the Wu Zhou Dynasty was established.
Of course, if that was the case, it was impossible to conclude that there was a Buddhist Sect behind Wu Zetian. It was also possible that after Wu Zetian ascended the throne, the Buddhist Sect was the first to kneel down.
In addition, Li Tang regarded Taoism as the state religion, and Wu Zetian proclaimed herself emperor. In order to show the difference between Li Tang and Wu Zetian, it was only natural to raise Buddhism.
However, one thing was for sure, and that was that this cousin of his was really not simple.
Regardless of whether it was the Buddhist Sect's support or the Buddhist Sect's flattery, she was absolutely awesome to be able to tamper with Li Tang's establishment of the Wu Zhou Dynasty at the peak of the Tang Dynasty's national fortune.
It was better to keep a respectful distance from such an awesome person.
When Chen Qi thought of this, he immediately summoned his errand boy, Chen An, and asked,"How is the matter I told you to do? Have you found a suitable house to rent?”
Hearing this, Chen An did not dare to hide anything. He answered directly,""Replying to Young Master, this lowly one has also gone with Guard Zhou to look at a few inner city manors that are currently being rented out. However, we don't have much silver left, so"
Chen An did not continue. He did not have enough money on hand and could not afford to rent a house in the inner city of Chang 'an.
Of course, they could also rent a house in the outer city. However, the outer city was quite far from the inner city. If they lived in the outer city, Chen Qi's duty in the Imperial Academy would be another problem.
Chen Qi could not help but frown when he heard Chen An's words.
He could only blame his predecessor for being too heroic and elegant in Chang 'an City. He invited guests and made friends everywhere and spent most of his money.
After Chen Qi transmigrated, he could only freeload and live a hard life.
According to his predecessor's personality, if he had no money on him, he would definitely write a letter to ask his family to send some money over.
However, Chen Qi was not his predecessor. He preferred to be self-reliant and not be an old man.
Therefore, it was impossible to write a letter, and it was even more impossible to ask for money. He could only think of a way to earn some money.
Then, how could he earn a lot of money in a short period of time?
It would be best if it was the kind of money that could allow him to buy a house directly and not have to worry about food and drink for the rest of his life.
In the words of the future, it was just a few small goals to achieve wealth and freedom.
Thinking of this, Chen Qi could not help but sigh faintly. Then, he involuntarily looked in the direction of the Jingshui River outside Chang 'an City.
He felt that the money for his house purchase, his small goal, would probably fall on a certain old dragon outside the city.
Well, he set a small goal for himself first and took out a house from the Jing River Dragon King.
