The father and son chatted in the garden and talked about many topics. During this period, the two former kings and queens, Ajeert and Christina, were asking Jiang Ning various questions. Asking him where he had been these years.

, how are you doing, and why you didn’t come to see them. However, more questions were asked about their mother, Elizabeth.

"Mother, how long will it take for her to come back to life?" Christina looked even more charming now. She bit her lips and looked at the palace lantern on the table without blinking. As if she heard her voice, the palace lantern suddenly

The emerald color flickers with a rhythm like breathing.

"I'm afraid we have to wait." Looking at the gorgeous palace lantern, Jiang Ning hesitated for a while before speaking.

"Then how long do we have to wait?"

Jiang Ning shook his head, "I don't know." He looked at the disappointed expressions of his two children, "Your mother is not an ordinary childbirth, because she was seriously injured by you two. Fortunately, I was still very 'weak' at the time. If I could take a step forward,

I'm afraid Elizabeth will never have a chance to be resurrected."

"Why is that?"

"This is determined by the rules of the universe." He said: "The more powerful a life is, the chance of giving birth to a descendant is very rare. At that time, I was undoubtedly more powerful than Elizabeth. Therefore, this rule is also valid for me. Even if

While she was pregnant with you two

When she was a child, I brewed a large amount of magic potion for her to replenish the source of life, but I still made a mistake. What she lost was the source of life, which could not be replenished by a mere magic potion. Although a large amount of potion replenished her vitality, it made her

She can live a few more years, but..."

"It turns out it's because of the two of us..." Christina seemed to blame herself. She looked sadly at the palace lantern on the table. She wanted to pick up the lamp, but she was afraid of hurting the soul sleeping in the lamp.

Ajert didn't know how to comfort his sister. Since the two siblings abdicated, they have been practicing in seclusion in the backyard of the palace as the country's secret patron saint. Christina is different from him. She has always been hygienic.

Maintaining a pure virginity. Her vision is very high, whether it is a foreign monarch, aristocrat or local

The country's outstanding children could not fall into her eyes. Over time, she remained single. As for Ajiert, after he came of age, he married a noble woman of his country early and had children. After the children came of age, the siblings

The two men formally abdicated the throne, and with their help, the new king smoothly took over the power of the country.

Because during the period when the king and the queen ruled together, they defeated the two great kingdoms and established the hegemony of the Mediterranean. As a result, after the new king succeeded to the throne, the domestic political situation was stable, and the same was true for the external environment. After the new king succeeded to the throne, he established a solid foundation in the era of the two kings.

On the basis of his work, he vigorously promoted and supported the country's industry, commerce, agriculture and animal husbandry. With his support and policies, the society of the Tang Dynasty finally ushered in a blowout.

The prosperous period. The potential accumulated over more than a hundred years of rest and recuperation exploded in one fell swoop, bringing comprehensive prosperity to the entire territory of the Tang Dynasty. All walks of life developed vigorously. Farmers and herdsmen farmed and grazed with peace of mind, and grain production increased year by year.

As a result, there are already piles of granaries in various places. Every household also builds grain storage rooms, puts the newly produced grains every year into the grain storage rooms, and takes out the old grains and sells them abroad.

The people of the Tang Dynasty, who had too much food to eat and didn't know what to do with it, used the food to feed various livestock and even make wine. People in the country had seen it a lot, so they were not surprised. Foreign merchants and even envoys,

But they were extremely jealous of the wealth of the Tang people. Coupled with the Mediterranean trade surrounding the Tang Dynasty, many people and countries were extremely jealous of this maritime trade, which can be called a hugely profitable industry. The piracy industry, which was once in a slump or even extinct, has once again

Revival and prosperity.

Many countries secretly provide shelter for pirates. The Mediterranean, especially the area close to Asia, is dotted with many islands, which are natural hiding places for pirates. Pirates from all over the world gather here, and they rob all kinds of merchant ships in the Mediterranean without restraint, and then sell them.

Travel to various places to make huge profits while building ships and recruiting troops

Buy horses and expand their strength. Although the Tang Dynasty's navy conducted many encirclement and suppression campaigns, it was still unable to annihilate all these pirates. In addition, due to the support of various countries, some merchants in remote areas did not dare to go to sea for trade alone.

Action, only by uniting many maritime merchants to form a huge caravan can they dare to go to sea for trade.

As for the places close to the territory of the Tang Dynasty, the merchants there felt extremely at ease. Several fleets of the Tang Dynasty patrolled continuously every day to protect the smooth flow of sea routes. The pirates, however, did not have the courage to conduct public activities in the waters of the Tang Dynasty. However,

, the Tang people could only take care of a part of the sea area, and they couldn't take care of the farther sea areas at all.

Although it was known that these pirates were supported by many countries, without definite evidence, it was difficult for the Tang people to exert pressure on those countries. On the contrary, due to many encirclement and suppression campaigns, the pirate power not only did not decline, but became more and more prosperous.

"Father, will you leave when you come back this time?" After Ajiert finished speaking, Christina, who was a little depressed at the side, also looked at Jiang Ning with expectation in her eyes.

Jiang Ning nodded and shook his head. He said, "I must leave, but I am coming back this time to take you back."

After hearing this, the two siblings were very happy, and then frowned and said, "What about the country and the people? What will they do? If we leave, does it mean that everything here has to be given up?"

Jiang Ning shook his head, "That's not the case. You will understand after a while."

In the days that followed, Lu Duan, the envoy to the Tang Dynasty, was undoubtedly very happy after purchasing the war horses. Every day, he worked hard to learn the language and writing of the Tang people, and then under the guidance of his entourage and the translator assigned to him by the Tang people

Next, he traveled throughout the Tang Dynasty and wrote down all the things he experienced personally in his "Travel to the Tang Dynasty". He also hired Tang painters to follow him and made powerful paintings of various places. He wanted to complete his work with pictures and texts.

A summary of this tour of the Tang Dynasty.

This was also influenced by the Tang Dynasty, because he found that many books in the Tang Dynasty were compiled with pictures and text. The pictures and text can make people understand clearly at a glance, and can make people feel more deeply than simple text descriptions.

Interest. For this reason, Lu Duan began to revise his book "Yu Tang Yao Lue",

He also hired the most famous painters in the Tang Dynasty to accompany him, drawing the land pattern of the Tang people, the port city and the ships with masts, as well as the clothing and residences of merchants from various countries, and the people of the Tang Dynasty. He also painted pastures with countless livestock and gratifying growth.

Cultivated fields, exquisite and tall houses, everything he saw.

In his writings, he not only recorded the prosperity of the Tang people, but also recorded in detail all aspects of the Tang people's society, including the Tang people's political system. He made objective and fair criticisms. Of course, he would inevitably criticize the Tang people for putting an end to the study of saints.

Lu Duan was very dissatisfied with the knowledge of specializing in profit and strange skills.

After Lu Duan finished writing the summary of his travels in Tang Dynasty, he went to court and formally bid farewell to the king of Tang Dynasty.

The emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty blessed his departure and decided to send a naval fleet to escort him. Lu Duan was naturally grateful for this. Afterwards, the envoy to the Tang Dynasty began to return home.
