After the training assessment, I returned to the real world. It was only five in the afternoon. I was still lying on the bed, as if I had taken a long nap.
However, I knew that I had already gone through more than 300 hours of special training in the concept of time and space. I felt that the quality of my consciousness had clearly improved. Moreover, I've experienced hardships that ordinary people have never experienced and enjoyed blessings that ordinary people have never enjoyed. My knowledge is also different. Especially when the feeling of being an emperor still lingered in my heart. I clearly felt that my style was different.
After getting up, I stood in front of the window and looked out. I looked at the great courtyard of my house and suddenly felt hungry. I heard my mother cooking in the kitchen, so I shouted to the kitchen,"Hurry up and pass the food. I'm starving."
My mom is still so diligent. As soon as I shouted, she rushed out with a shovel and shouted respectfully to me,"Little rascal, you've slept for the whole afternoon. Hurry up and go to the ground to help your dad work. If you shout again, I'll sew your mouth shut."
If I were the emperor, I definitely wouldn't be able to do anything to my mother.
I know my mother's temper. It's better for me to restrain myself and stop for the time being. I obediently helped my father finish his work before coming back for dinner.
It was not a good idea to stay here and do farm work. When I returned to my room at night, I recalled my conversation with Zi Gong. Looks like I really have to study it properly.
With that in mind, I went online to spread some knowledge about self-media. Most importantly, I looked at how to use self-media to start a business and make money. I've been watching it for more than two hours and have a rough impression of it.
However, I seemed to be weak alone. I thought of my good friend Liu Xin. This kid grew up with me and is younger than me. He always calls me Brother Yuan. Now, just like me, he returned to his hometown after graduating from university without achieving anything. Fortunately, his father was the village chief and his family was relatively well-off.
After graduating from university, we often talked about how to start our own business. The biggest characteristic of this kid was that he loved to watch the news broadcast since primary school. He had taken philosophy as an elective in university. He had not yet made a good life, but he talked about how to rejuvenate the country through science and education, how to promote fairness and justice, and always liked to talk about the great principles of governing the country. I advised him to be down-to-earth first, but he didn't agree. He always liked to scold me with the phrase that every man has a responsibility to the rise and fall of the world. Sometimes he likes to put on airs and argue, but fortunately he still respects me. He's very suitable to be my partner.
Thinking of this, I immediately called Liu Xin. This kid happened to have nothing to do, so he hung up after saying that he would be there soon.
Ten minutes later, Liu Xin came to my house. I didn't tell him about the time and space concept for the time being. Firstly, I was afraid that he would laugh at me for being crazy. Secondly, I didn't know if I could tell this to outsiders. I'm already completely convinced of the Space-time Concept now, so I don't want to cause any more trouble.
I didn't lay any foundations and told Liu Xin directly that I had been thinking about it for the past few days. I felt that entrepreneurs should have new ideas and not blindly do things rashly. The Internet and new media are so advanced, we should take advantage of the situation. If you're interested, we can do it together.
Liu Xin said," I've thought about this too, but I don't have any good material. I don't know how to start."
I told him about the idea of transforming the village. At first, he felt that it was very novel, but he said that he did not believe that it could make money.
I told him about the self-media knowledge that I had just learned, and then turned on my phone to let him see the relevant information.
He looked at it in confusion. In the end, he said,"I don't understand it very well now." But I believe in you and I'm willing to work with you on this project.
The next day, we started our own media business. First of all, I applied for a self-media account on XX. I didn't expect it to be so difficult to apply for an account. I applied three times in a row and still didn't get it. He always lacked this and that. This didn't work, that didn't work. It took me three days just to apply for an account. In the end, he managed to pass the test by a hair's breadth.
I didn't go to the meta-universe for the past three days. The life and environment there were too wonderful. I was worried that the perfect experience would make me lose my motivation to start a business in real life.
It's already 6 p. m. and I was studying my social media account when Brother Nine suddenly found me. I immediately returned to my room and locked the door. I lay down on the bed and then let my consciousness come to the universe.
Brother Nine smiled and said," Don't be so nervous. When your consciousness comes to the universe, we will naturally protect your body in the real world from being disturbed or violated."
I said it was better to be careful at the beginning.
Brother Nine didn't comment on my words and went straight to the point. Our assessment of you has ended. You are already a true Spacetime Envoy. This means that you have to be ready to be summoned by us at any time to complete the mission we give you. I'll give you the first mission now. You know about the Battle of Muye in your history books, right?
The Battle of Muye was a battle between King Wu and King Zhou.
That's right. Didn't the history books say that the Martial King had won? What mission was this?
According to the course of history, that was indeed the case. However, the real situation at that time was that King Zhou was powerful and King Wu was weak. King Zhou had won every battle and could almost be called the God of War. If not for King Zhou's series of wrong decisions, King Wu would not have won. "However, recently, when we were patrolling the history, we discovered that King Zhou suddenly realized his strategic mistake and began to shrink the front line. Although we haven't found the reason yet, the outcome of the Battle of Muye will likely be reversed, causing even greater chaos in time and space. I'm going to send your consciousness to that era immediately and replace King Zhou's consciousness. I'll make him make the wrong decision again and lose the victory of the war. All your actions are for this main goal. If you encounter any situation, you can make some decisions according to the actual situation. Of course, when our space-time connection is smooth, we can communicate with each other to solve the problem. We can use some of your so-called superpowers to assist you, but if the space-time communication is not smooth, all the problems will be solved by you alone. After you complete the mission, we will send you back as soon as possible.
I only heard the gist of it. I wasn't worried about anything else. I only asked one question. Will I be in any danger?
Of course not. First of all, we only sent your consciousness to the Shang Dynasty. Your body is still in the real world. Secondly, no matter if it was war, murder, or illness, they would not harm your consciousness. Unless there's a problem within our universe that causes a problem with the space-time transfer, you'll be absolutely safe.
Then I'm relieved. I also hate King Zhou, so I should let him lose. But what about Daji? Should I play along too? I smiled evilly.
"If another young King Zhou appears in history, it will also cause chaos. We will still send others to fix this mistake, and we will terminate our cooperation.
Terminate the cooperation? What benefits will I get from cooperating?
Of course, there were benefits. First, one could learn many historical truths without changing the space-time events. Second, we have a lot of information about the consciousness of famous historical figures. Your consciousness can communicate with the consciousness of some famous historical figures in the time and space domain, allowing you to experience the demeanor of a true master. Thirdly, and most importantly, your consciousness will be preserved in the time and space domain in the future.
That's enough. It's all good. Deal. " I'll cooperate with you in your way. Send me to the Shang Dynasty now. I'll be King Zhou first. Just thinking about it makes me excited. However, I have to lose. This is a little uncomfortable.
Don't worry, you'll have plenty of chances to win in the future. Prepare the relevant historical knowledge first. The situation is ever-changing. We will contact you at any time. Good luck. We will transfer your consciousness to the Shang Dynasty in a while.
Just like last time, a pillar of light appeared around me and became brighter and brighter. I felt that the objects around me were getting faster and faster. After about a minute, my consciousness sank and I knew that I had arrived at the station.
I am now in a palace. Although it is called a palace, it is much simpler than the Forbidden City. It is more like a counterfeit of the Gathering Hall in the TV series. The two servants beside me were gently pushing me and saying in a voice that I could understand but could not describe, King, King, wake up.
I pretended to be woken up by them and stretched. Then, I looked at my outfit. Not to mention that my current attire was a little similar to the costume in the TV series Investiture of the Gods. My braids were coiled on my head, and I wore a hat with a circular hoop shaped jade ornament. I was wearing a cross-collar costume with a cloud pattern and an animal pattern that I didn't recognize. There was a wide red and white belt tied around his waist, and the belt was tied to the lower part of his collar. Her clothes were longer than her knees, and she was wearing loose pants. I wore a jade accessory on my waist. It was shaped like a small axe, but the handle was much wider than the handle. I couldn't tell what material the shoes on my feet were made of, but they were very comfortable and unique, like a boat with its head tilted up.
The other people's clothes were obviously not as high-class as mine, but the style was the same. I asked them what was wrong with me in the same accent.
They said that the king suddenly fell asleep without warning. Everyone called him but he did not wake up. They had gone to find the royal doctor. At this time, the king woke up.
At this moment, I saw two people standing below. They obviously looked like ministers.
Oh no, although I know part of the history, I still don't know who they are. Wouldn't I be exposed? Fortunately, I received Brother Jiu's message in time. He told me not to panic. These two people are Fei Lian and Er 'Lai, the two most treacherous officials of the Shang Dynasty. The loss of the Battle of Muye was all thanks to them.
Upon hearing this, I quickly told them that it was fine. These two days, there were many battles and I was a little tired. I fainted for a moment, but I'm much better now.
The two of them let out a long sigh of relief and quickly said,"It's good that you're fine. Your Majesty's heroic name will definitely be protected by the heavens." It seemed that people were still quite superstitious.
I asked about the war again. Fei Lian said that the king was wise and saw that the Zhou people clearly had disloyal intentions. Our main force in the southeast is returning to Zhaoge according to the king's instructions to readjust in case of emergency.
When I heard that this was clearly not in line with history, I realized that this was really going to be a mess. I quickly said,"Wait a minute. This king has been pondering over this matter for the past two days. We have tested the people of Zhou many times and have not found anything wrong. If our army sets up defenses again, it will seem that I am suspicious and will not make people submit." Moreover, I first conquered Li in the northwest and then pacified the southeast barbarians. Without exception, I won a complete victory. The people of Zhou had the courage to disobey me. Although the Li and Yi were defeated, they still had to be wary of them reorganizing their troops and making a comeback. Therefore, I thought about it again and again. I can't withdraw the defense and let the troops return to the southeast to deploy.
Er 'Lai hesitated for a moment before agreeing."Your Majesty is wise. I agree with your suggestion." Feilian looked enlightened and called out his Majesty's wisdom!
Needless to say, the feeling of being flattered was really good. With the two of you, what's there to worry about?
I slowly stood up. King Zhou was tall. I moved my limbs. My consciousness could completely control King Zhou's body. I slowly walked out of the palace. Feilian and Er 'Lai bowed and followed behind me.
The palace I'm in is on a higher ground, so I can roughly see the south side of the palace. The height of the palace was well-proportioned. The entire palace was symmetrical with a stone path in the middle as the central axis. So it looked very formal, but this palace definitely didn't have the style of the Forbidden City, so I wasn't interested in looking at the specific situation of the other palaces. However, I'm very interested in the wine pools and meat forests in history books.
I said to Fei Lian and E behind me, I don't have anything else to do today. I want to pass the time. You two come with me to the wine pool and meat forest!
Fei Lian and Er 'Lai looked at each other. Fei Lian asked me doubtfully, What was the king talking about?
I was also quite puzzled. Logically speaking, these two treacherous officials should have known about wine pools and meat forests. Could it be that the records in the history books were wrong? I tried my best to remain calm and explained, It was a forest of wine and meat with pools filled with fine wine and cooked meat hanging all over the forest.
Feilian and Er 'Lai looked at me with even more confusion." We have never heard of the Wine Pond and Meat Forest that Your Majesty mentioned. I wonder where Your Majesty learned of such a place?
I understood immediately. This was knowledge from the history books, not from the original universe. History books were too deceptive. There was definitely no such place.
I immediately adapted to the situation and said,"This king had a dream the day before yesterday and dreamed of such a place. Today, I casually said that if there isn't, then forget it. You two recommend a place to play."
Fei Lian and Er 'Lai didn't suspect anything and immediately told me respectfully, King, let's go to Deer Terrace Pavilion. The scenery there is good, the buildings are beautiful, and there are good wine and beautiful women there. Every time the king goes there, he is always very happy. How about we go to Deer Terrace Pavilion today?
I thought that the history book was not lying. There was indeed Deer Terrace Pavilion. I could see what Deer Terrace Pavilion looked like, so I immediately agreed. Alright, you guys go down and get ready. We'll move to Deer Terrace Pavilion immediately.
Fei Lian smiled evilly and said,"Two days ago, a group of beautiful women were paid tribute to the foreign countries. According to Your Majesty's instructions, I first selected a group of beautiful women to be offered in Deer Terrace. Today, Your Majesty can have some fun."
It seemed that there was a reason why this treacherous official was so popular. He could always figure out the emperor's will. I felt very comfortable in my heart, but I still said calmly on the surface, You guys make the arrangements.
The two treacherous officials immediately agreed with a smile and went down to prepare. In a short while, my honor guard was ready, and a large green horse was prepared for me. I was a little scared when I saw it. I just came and was not familiar with this horse. If I showed my fear, it would be troublesome. Thinking of this, I quickly ordered. This king is not feeling well today, so I won't ride a horse. Prepare a sedan chair for this king.
Fei Lian, Er 'Lai, and the guard of honor all looked at me in surprise. I said sternly, didn't you hear what I said? Hurry up and prepare the palanquin.
Er 'Lai was the first to react and immediately ordered, What are you waiting for? Hurry up and prepare a palanquin for the king.
There were palanquins in the early Xia Dynasty, but in the Shang Dynasty, they were usually prepared for women. There was really no palanquin prepared for me.
Helplessly, the guard of honor could only find a sedan chair from the rear palace for me to sit on. I sat in the sedan chair under everyone's surprised gazes.
We left the palace and rushed to Deer Terrace Pavilion. The journey wasn't short. After walking for about half an hour, we finally arrived at Deer Terrace Pavilion.
The palanquin was slowly put down. I walked out of the palanquin and looked outside. Deer Terrace Pavilion was indeed very spectacular. Although it wasn't as high as the ancient book said, it was still dozens of meters tall. The entire Deer Terrace Pavilion was divided into three levels. The first and second floors were large foundation-based buildings. The palace was built on the third floor, with carved beams and painted pillars. It was tall and majestic.
Under my lead, everyone walked along the stone steps into Deer Terrace Palace. I sat on the throne in the middle. The palace servants quickly filled my table with wine, meat, and all kinds of fruits. Fei Lian and Er 'Lai were also busy. In a short while, they pulled in more than 20 beautiful women.
Fei Lian reported to me with an evil smile. These are the beauties that the foreign countries have offered as tribute a few days ago. Your Majesty can enjoy them at will.
I waved my hand to signal him to move aside. Then, I let the beautiful women come to my table one by one. I carefully selected them.
To be honest, the beauty of this era did not conform to the aesthetic standards of modern people. The most important thing was that they had single eyelids. It was said that in history, it was only after the Five Barbarians invaded China that Han women began to have double eyelids. People in this era all had single eyelids.
I picked for a long time and only chose three that I found pleasing to the eye. I rewarded the rest to Fei Lian and Er 'Lai. The two treacherous officials were so happy that they could not close their mouths and kept thanking him.
I thought to myself that the destruction of the Shang Dynasty still depended on these treacherous officials, so it was necessary to give them some benefits.
I asked Fei Lian and Er 'Lai to sit on both sides and then began to watch the dance. Fei Lian and Er' Lai each chose two beauties from the rest of the beauties I chose. They hugged each other on the left and right, touching each other. I was once an emperor, so I'm very familiar with these things.
In the middle of the palace, the palace maids were dancing. The dance was not as beautiful and sexy as modern dance, but it was still okay. However, the singing was too unpleasant to listen to. The musical instruments were mainly bells and copper coins. It was ancient, but it was obviously not as good as modern music.
After staying for a while, I felt that I had already experienced this kind of imperial life in the original universe, and it was even better than this, so I wasn't too interested. After drinking a few cups of wine, I thought of Daji. I haven't seen such a key figure in the Shang Dynasty. I have to see first.
Thinking of this, I got up and left my seat. Fei Lian and Er 'Lai immediately went forward and said," Is there something on your mind today, Your Majesty?
I can't be bothered to talk to them, so I'll just say that this king isn't feeling well today. In addition, we still have to put the country's affairs first. Today, my orders to deploy troops must be carried out completely, and there can't be any mistakes. If there are any accidents, I'll hold the two of you responsible.
Fei Lian and Er 'Lai hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, saying,"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. We will definitely make the necessary arrangements."
Just as I was about to leave, a eunuch ran into the hall from outside.
I don't know him, but he should be very familiar with King Zhou. He ran to me directly without informing me and leaned into my ear, saying that the Preceptor had invited him to the secret chamber.
I didn't say anything. As I thought about what was going on, I contacted Brother Nine.
Ninth Brother was also very surprised. Obviously, he had never heard of the state preceptor, so he could only let me improvise.
I slowly got up and motioned for the eunuch to lead the way. The eunuch led me to a room on the east side of the third floor of Deer Terrace Pavilion.
The room was very ordinary without any furnishings. The eunuch pressed on the fish-shaped embossed on the opposite wall. The wall with the relief immediately slowly split left and right, revealing a two-meter-tall and one-meter-wide hole.
The eunuch entered first, and I followed. There was a long staircase leading down. Every five meters, there was a copper plate embedded in the wall. The copper plate was lit, so it was not dark inside.
I looked down and didn't know if there was any danger. I contacted Brother Nine and he told me not to worry. Only then did I feel at ease and follow the eunuch down.
We descended more than a hundred steps and arrived at the door of a secret room. The eunuch pressed on a embossed on the wall and the door of the secret room opened.
The eunuch bowed and said," Please, Your Majesty. The Imperial Advisor has been waiting for a long time." I was a little doubtful and quickly asked Brother Nine what to do. Brother Nine's answer was a little intermittent, but the general meaning was that I could rest assured and act boldly.
I adjusted my breathing and directly entered the secret room. The door of the secret room closed.
It turned out that the inside of Deer Terrace Pavilion was empty, and there was a secret chamber that no one knew about. The secret chamber was very large, and the most eye-catching thing was that there was a glass-like cylinder in the middle of the secret chamber that led straight to the top. The cylinder was one meter in diameter, and its entire body was suffused with a light blue light, so the secret chamber was not dark at all. A man in a black cloak sat beside the pillar. After sensing my presence, the man in the black cloak turned around and bowed to me.
This black-cloaked person was too special. His entire body was covered by a black cloak. The face is a golden mask. I'm too familiar with this mask. It's the same mask that was unearthed in Sanxing Dui, Sichuan Province. He didn't know what their connection was, but it looked quite eerie. This should be the so-called state preceptor. He was like a triad.
I quickly used my consciousness to contact Brother Nine, but no matter how much I called for help, Brother Nine just couldn't be contacted. I instantly understood. This place must have been specially modified. All kinds of waves couldn't penetrate it. It seemed that I could only improvise.
I adjusted myself to make myself more dignified and more like a king. I used a steady tone to ask the state preceptor, is there anything you need from me?
Imperial Preceptor said to me slowly,"Your Majesty, I told you a few days ago that my companions are helping the people of Zhou. The people of Zhou clearly have the intention to rebel. Your Majesty had promised me to shrink the defense line and focus on dealing with the people of Zhou. But why did I hear today that Your Majesty has gone back on his word?"
Before he said anything, I already understood everything. This monster-like thing must be the reason why King Zhou changed his mind. Since I couldn't contact Brother Nine, I could only do whatever I wanted now.
Fortunately, I have already thought of a reason to deal with the ministers and generals. I listened to him and slowly said, I didn't change my mind for no reason. I did this for three main reasons. The first reason was that although the Li and Yi were defeated, their strength couldn't be underestimated. They could turn around and counterattack at any time. Second, we withdrew with great fanfare to resist the Zhou people. Even if the Zhou people did not want to rebel, they were forced to rebel by us. Third, governing the country and the army was the same. One could not change their orders overnight. Doing so would not be able to win the trust of the people and the army. War requires strategy. I'm relaxed on the outside but tight on the inside. Although I haven't withdrawn the soldiers at the border, I've already strengthened my vigilance against the Zhou people.
The Grand Tutor was obviously not prepared to answer me. He was stunned for a while before he said," Ever since the Sumer Dynasty, we are no longer allowed to interfere with human activities. Moreover, our genes have been modified, so we are currently unable to adapt to the environment, sunlight, and magnetic fields on Earth. Otherwise, I could have directly participated in the battle. However, I needed more resources to build a bigger Deer Terrace. I had already completed the blueprint. After I finished speaking, I pointed at the blueprint on the table in front of him. Only then did I see that there was an extremely precise blueprint here. The Deer Terrace on the blueprint surprised me even more. It was exactly the same as the pyramids in Egypt. I suppressed the doubts in my heart and pretended to be nonchalant. Why did the state preceptor build this thing?
The Imperial Advisor smiled." You can't understand it with your knowledge. I can only tell you that this building has the same effect as Deer Terrace Pavilion, but it's much more powerful. It can fully absorb dark energy and anti-energy. With this, I can complete my plan." I realized that your era is the most suitable for completing my plan. That's why I went against the rules to help you. My companions are all rotten and inflexible people. They can't do it themselves, but they don't want me to succeed. They actually started to openly oppose me and openly help the Zhou people. I heard that they also built a similar platform. The name was different, but the function was the same. Absorbing dark matter energy to create weapons that surpassed the era. I'm very satisfied with the flying brick I made recently.
With that, the Imperial Advisor picked up a stone the size of half a brick from the table beside him and threw it into the air. The flying brick flew towards the lamp in the corner of the wall as if it had eyes. It smashed the lamp out and then accurately flew back into his hand. I asked in surprise, how did this happen?
The Imperial Advisor once again used a gloomy tone to tell me that my abilities are not limited to this. I will do my best to do what I can. Now, I need the king to withdraw all his troops to deal with the Zhou people.
I thought, of course I understand, but I can't do that. I thought about it and said that I hope Imperial Preceptor can forge more of these weapons. That way, our chances of winning will be higher. But I think I've already made it clear that I won't change my mind.
After I finished speaking, I gestured for the eunuch to open the door and then left the secret room. I have to leave before he hits me with that thing. It's too dangerous.
This so-called state preceptor must be very angry. I heard the sound of him smashing things, but he didn't hurt me.
I quickly walked out of the secret room. After I came out, I contacted Brother Nine and told him what happened just now. Brother Nine said that it was alright. Everything was under control. As for the state preceptor, he would find a way to resolve it.
Let's not be careless. That weapon of his was quite powerful.
Don't worry, those things are child's play in the universe.
Then can you send me a few? I'm afraid I can't deal with the state preceptor.
There's no need for it at the moment. We'll provide it to you when it's necessary.
