After being choked to death by a copper coin, she became a demon Jin Ji in the other world

[However, this is really a case of forcing things to grow. What on earth is there in Yue Lan that is worth their anticipation and cultivation? What are they so anxious about now? ]

[Isn't it better to take one step at a time? Why do you have to do this? Yue Lan is too old, how can she bear this kind of stimulation! ]

[I don't know, Huanyan doesn't know. Huanyan really doesn't want to feel this powerless feeling anymore. The only thing we can do now is to protect our master, let her survive in this man-made storm, become stronger, and then take revenge on everyone who controls her fate! ]

[That's right! Hmm? She's about to wake up. Since she doesn't want to see me for the time being, you can stay with her in the outer world for a while. Su Xuan and I are here in the inner world, so you can rest assured and recuperate.]

[Okay, I will take good care of the master. ]

[By the way, Sister Sushang, you…you really don’t blame the Master? ]

[Alas, to be honest, I still feel resentful. Before I even heard her voice, I was ready to roast her into jerky. Su Yi's words were not an exaggeration.]

[But, the moment I heard her voice, all my resentment and hatred disappeared, leaving only heartache. I watched Su Xin and Su Yi grow up, and so did Yue Lan. I know them all.]

[Although I always make trouble for her and make her angry, I really hold her in my heart. These feelings have nothing to do with Lao Zhao's instructions. Every frown and smile is a token of my love.]

[If we must make a judgment on the relationship between us, it can only be that you treat me as a national hero, and I will definitely repay you as a national hero. ]

【What about you, Huanyan? 】

【Me? I haven’t changed my original intention. 】

【good! 】

Chapter 342 The Saint Invites

Originally, after dealing with Huichang Luo's compensation, Shen Yuelan's journey to the late Tang Dynasty should have come to an end, but Shen Sushang's series of actions completely eliminated Shen Yuelan's idea of returning to the other world immediately.

Shen Yuelan could only stay in Chang'an City temporarily and was forced to take a vacation. Every day she played with the cat, walked the fox, and had a lot of fun. She was very comfortable. But it seemed that God didn't want Shen Yuelan to have such an easy life. Not long after, he found something for Shen Yuelan to do.

It was a sunny afternoon. After finishing all her work, Shen Yuelan wanted to take a break and have a drink while the sun was shining. But before she could warm up the rattan chair, her yard was suddenly invaded by soldiers.

Shen Yuelan was stunned. What was going on? She didn't remember any connection between her and the Li Tang court? Not to mention any offense against them?

[You...what are you doing? I haven't offended you, have I? I'm warning you, I'm not a weak woman. If you make me angry, you'll suffer the consequences! ]

[Fairy Bai, please don't be offended. It's the saint who invited me.]

[The Saint invites you? Is this what the Saint wants you to do? 】

[Hehe, please don't make things difficult for me. Just follow us to the palace to meet the emperor. This will be good for both sides. Someone, please help Fairy Bai to look decent.]

When the leading eunuch howled in his hoarse voice, Shen Yuelan immediately felt a surge of anger in her heart. Damn it, if the tiger doesn’t show its might, do you think I’m a sick cat?

Shen Yuelan waved her slender arm lightly, and thousands of Song imperial guards rushed out from the streets and alleys in an instant, surrounding the Shen Ce army who came here to [invite people]. The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict, who had been so arrogant just now, found sadly that they were actually surrounded after being reminded by the Shen Ce army behind him.

[How dare you! You actually secretly kept soldiers in captivity, Bai Jinluan! Are you planning a rebellion? ]

【White…white golden throne?】

Shen Yuelan was slightly stunned when she heard this. When did she become Bai Jinluan? Why was there something weird about today's incident?

Before Shen Yuelan could figure it out, the Shen Ce Army had already surrendered collectively under the leadership of that stupid eunuch. There were hundreds of soldiers in this army, and they surrendered just like that? Shen Yuelan was almost laughing out of anger.

One incompetent general will bring down the entire army. Shen Yuelan saw an example of this saying today. If she were a general, even if she was surrounded, she would have to fight a few battles before deciding the outcome. How could she surrender without a fight?

[Tsk tsk, it seems that we can't expect the eunuchs of every dynasty to be as loyal as those in the Ming Dynasty. ]

Although he could take this opportunity to take all of the Shen Ce Army into his possession, Shen Yuelan had always disdained the Shen Ce Army's combat effectiveness. The number of people in this troop was so small that Shen Yuelan looked down on them even more.

Therefore, Shen Yuelan's way of dealing with them was to just detain them temporarily, and then release them after everything was settled to see what to do next.

Yes, Shen Yuelan did not release the troops sent by Xuanzong. Releasing these hundreds of people without clarifying the situation might have had a very bad impact on history.

In addition, Shen Yuelan also wanted to see what the Li Tang royal family was up to.

But before Shen Yuelan could figure out how to retaliate, a new eunuch arrived, and behind him were also hundreds of Shen Ce soldiers. Shen Yuelan thought that the other party had not reacted, so without hesitation, he accepted them all and detained them in the same way, temporarily sealing them in the core space.

But as the situation developed, Shen Yuelan soon realized that something was wrong. Eunuchs delivering imperial edicts came in waves, and she imprisoned the Shence Army in batches. But the emperor in the palace seemed to be possessed and kept sending the Shence Army and eunuchs delivering imperial edicts.

In the end, it turned out that the Shence Army that Shen Yuelan was holding in her hands had more than 10,000 people, which made Shen Yuelan completely confused for a moment. What on earth was the other party doing? Could it be that Emperor Xuanzong was Sister Jing'an in disguise?

But the confused mood did not last long. Shen Yuelan soon discovered the common points between these eunuchs and the Shence Army. These eunuchs and the Shence Army seemed to belong to Ma Yuanzhi's faction.

[Good fellow, he is using me as a trash can. This Li Chen is really cunning. ]

Although she was not sure when Emperor Xuanzong discovered her abnormality, her act of detaining the Shence Army at that time undoubtedly changed the course of history, and Shen Yuelan was very upset for a while.

However, since it has already happened, there is no point in regretting it. What we should consider now is how to solve the problem.

Shen Yuelan had a hunch that there must be something wrong with this Emperor Xuanzong Li Chen, and she wanted to see what the background of this new "saint" was.

In the deep and dark palace, a middle-aged man in his thirties was sitting crookedly on the dragon chair, looking down at the ministers. The eunuch's head that he was holding in his hand and playing with made the ministers in the hall panic.

The bloody appearance of this thing clearly showed that this person was definitely not Emperor Xuanzong Li Chen, but a cruel invader from another world. This made Shen Yuelan breathe a sigh of relief. With this information, she could get herself out of trouble.

Shen Yuelan was wearing pajamas at the moment, standing carelessly on the roof of the bedroom, secretly watching everything that happened in the palace. Of course, she was observing secretly, but what she was doing was no different from what she was doing openly.

The reason why Shen Yuelan dared to be so presumptuous was because she had confirmed that a singularity had indeed appeared in this world. Since it needed a major overhaul anyway, her little contribution wouldn't matter.

As for why she didn't just rush in, do you think Shen Yuelan is a fool? It's enough to do something that will alert the enemy once.

[Huanyan, how are you doing after stretching your muscles for the first time in a long time? 】

[Master plans to send troops to attack Daming Palace? ]

【Why not? 】

[Master, we shouldn't rush to attack the Daming Palace. If we can control the situation in time, the historical collapse can be limited to Chang'an, and the other world can spend less money when renovating the history of this world.]

[Eh? What benefit did Sister Hua give you that made you care about her so much? ]

[What benefit can she bring me? Huanyan is thinking about you, my master. According to how much the Huaju and the others value you now, you will definitely become an important figure in the other world in the future.]

[Since you intend to become a person in a high position, you must be careful about your reputation. The fewer stains you have on yourself in the future, the better.]

[Otherwise, when you really hold a high position in the future, it will be too late to cover up, and someone will definitely take advantage of this to cause trouble. We must prepare for the rainy day.]

[Alas, Huanyan, do you think I can really go that far? I don’t really want to live that kind of life. The responsibility is too great, and I’m afraid I’ll be crushed.]

Chapter 343: Imperial Capital Chang'an

[I know you don't like it, but that doesn't mean you won't go that far. Although in my opinion, if the time comes when you are needed to take the lead, the world will not be far from being destroyed.]

[Hey, hey, hey, Huanyan, you are going too far. 】

【Hehehe, just a joke. 】

[Humph, that was a good joke, don't make it again next time. ]

[Well, I am not someone who does not listen to advice. If that is the case, then I will do as you wish.]

[I'll leave this matter to you. Immediately lead the troops to take over the entire Chang'an City, besiege the Emperor in the Daming Palace, and control the entire situation at the lowest cost. Can you do it? ]

[Of course, I will definitely fulfill your mission, but my master, it may be difficult for me to accomplish this with only the two thousand Song imperial guards.]

[It doesn't matter, the Qin Rui soldiers have already returned, you can take them with you and make a big scene in this late Tang Dynasty. ]

【promise!】

Looking at the bright and beautiful figure that had already left, Shen Yuelan's mouth curled up slightly.

[Tsk tsk tsk, Huanyan has grown up. Let me see who is better between the Qin elite and the last main force of the Tang Dynasty.]

Shen Yuelan did not intend to take action personally. On her side, the survival of the 100,000-strong army depended on herself. As long as she was alive, even if the 100,000-strong army was wiped out, she could always raise them again.

But if he lost his life for this, it would be a huge loss. Therefore, although he really wanted to follow and see the situation, Shen Yuelan still endured it and stayed at the back.

However, Shen Yuelan's ability to hold back doesn't mean others can too. Xiao Yuhuan, who had been eavesdropping for a long time, saw that Shen Yuelan had no objection and immediately followed her, apparently intending to have a good time.

Lu Zhiwei did not leave, but he did not continue to be a decoration on Shen Yuelan.

In the corner, she was seriously educating her two new sisters. Yes, Fan Su and Hui Changluo had not left. Needless to say, Fan Su would definitely go with Shen Yuelan before returning to the inner world.

As for Hui Changluo, although most of the compensation had been received, the most important house and job still required Shen Yuelan to personally help her handle them.

Although he was a little disappointed that he could not get all the compensation, it would be nice to stay with Shen Yuelan and cultivate a relationship with his future boss. Maybe one day Shen Yuelan would be in a good mood and reward him with a lucrative job.

Shen Yuelan was not interested in exploring the little thoughts of her cats and dogs. She was watching the developments in the deep palace. Shen Huanyan and Xiao Yuhuan had already taken action. They each led 50,000 troops and quickly captured major strategic locations in Chang'an City.

The Tang Chang'an City was built according to the ideas of "harmony between man and nature" and "divine right of kings". The city consisted of the outer city, the imperial city, the palace city, the forbidden gardens, and the market towns. There were two cities and 87.27 market towns, covering an area of about square kilometers.

The characteristics of its construction system and layout are unprecedented scale, the creation of an imperial city, three layers of city walls, the use of six slopes, symmetrical layout, wide streets, neat lanes, uniform shapes, crisscrossing canals, greenery covering the city, and altars surrounding the suburbs. The capital was set up according to the position of the stars in the sky, and the palace city, imperial city, and inner city lanes were arranged according to the position of the stars.

There were three main palaces in the Tang Chang'an City, namely the Daming Palace, the Taiji Palace, and the Xingqing Palace. The largest one was called the [Dongnei], which is the Daming Palace.

The Daming Palace is the most magnificent palace complex in the Tang Empire and also the largest palace complex in the world at that time. If Chang'an City is the head of the heroine Xiaolan in the Conan story, then the Daming Palace is the protruding "horn" on Xiaolan's head.

This place seems to conflict with the neat and uniform urban planning of Chang'an City, but in fact it also has its own hidden details. The Daming Palace is located outside the northern city of Chang'an City, backed by the royal forbidden garden and the banks of the Wei River to the north, connected to the northern city of Chang'an City in the south, and the northeast corner of the palace city in the west.

A mountain plain symbolizing the dragon vein runs northward from Fanchuan in the southwest of Chang'an, stretching for sixty miles. Here, it is the "Dragon Head". Due to the high terrain, it is called the "Dragon Head Plain".

The Daming Palace is located exactly at the "dragon head" of Longshouyuan, that is, the "Jiuyi Highland" of Longshouyuan. Jiuyi Highland is the main vein of Longshou Mountain, where the dragon head is located. The head is twenty meters high and the terrain is very high.

The front court area of Daming Palace occupies the highest point of Longshou Mountain. Standing in Hanyuan Hall of Daming Palace and looking south, you can have a panoramic view of the entire Chang'an City.

The Qin army led by Shen Huanyan headed straight for this place. To catch a thief, one must first catch the leader. Not to mention killing the "New Emperor" directly, they must first besiege him and cut off his connection with the rest of the Shen Ce Army.

The other Qin army led by Xiao Yuhuan was responsible for capturing Taiji Palace, Xingqing Palace and all the military and political facilities in Chang'an.

They did not attack the markets and city walls. Although they had planned to besiege the entire city of Chang'an, they found that this was simply impossible to do when they actually implemented it.

At least they couldn't do it with just the 100,000 Qin soldiers in their hands. You know, according to Tang Dynasty poets, the population of Chang'an City was around one million. Even in the late Tang Dynasty, there were still 700,000 or 800,000 people in Chang'an City.

If Chang'an City was really surrounded, it would be fine for a day or two, but over time, a food crisis would inevitably break out in Chang'an City, which would then provoke a civil uprising.

Originally, Shen Huanyan and others did not have the home advantage in Chang'an City. If they pushed the people into a corner, they would be courting death.

In addition, Shen Huanyan did not want to make a big deal out of this matter. The reason she volunteered was to help Shen Yuelan clean up her mess, but she couldn't let this backfire.

Therefore, Shen Huanyan decided to narrow the scope of the encirclement, abandon the market town where the people lived in the city, and instead besiege the three palaces. One hundred thousand troops might not be able to defend Chang'an City, but it was more than enough to defend the three palaces.

Shen Huanyan was not afraid that doing so would attract reinforcements. At this time, the main forces of the Tang Dynasty were all on the western front, and they would not be able to return within ten days or half a month.

Although the major vassal states had large armies at their disposal, they had long-standing grievances with the central government and were lucky enough not to add insult to injury. How could they be willing to come to their aid wholeheartedly?

As for the six Shen Ce armies directly under the central government near Chang'an City, except for the main force of the Western Expedition, the most elite part of the Shen Ce Army in the city had long been handed over to Shen Yuelan by the so-called "Emperor Xuanzong", and the remaining tens of thousands of people were not a concern at all.

In short, within half a month, except for the unknown "New Emperor", the Qin army had no rivals in Chang'an City.

The fact was just as Shen Huanyan had thought, their progress was very smooth. In less than half a day, the outskirts of Daming Palace were under the control of Qin Army. After a brief resistance, Taiji Palace and Xingqing Palace were quickly suppressed by Xiao Yuhuan.

Chapter 344 Top Pull

Because it happened so quickly, the towns and villages that were a little further away from the imperial city had no idea that a mutiny had taken place in the imperial city, and they went about their business the next day.

Shen Huanyan was naturally happy to see this happen. In order to better reduce the impact of this incident on history, she even set up a new leadership team in Taiji Palace.

It is difficult to build an imperial court, but it is not difficult to build one either. After all, any county can directly pull out a complete national leadership team, let alone the huge city of Chang'an.

But having said that, the most core leadership still needs to be held by their own people. When this matter was reported to Shen Yuelan, she hesitated for a long time. After careful consideration, she pushed Lu Zhiwei out with a stroke of the pen.

Fan Su, Huichang Luo and Xiao Yuhuan had never been a leader before, and their social classes were not that high, so they were not suitable. Shen Yuelan herself was a hands-off boss, and she believed she did not have the ability.

Although Shen Huanyan had governed Linxin City for a period of time, she was responsible for the siege of the Daming Palace at the time and had no time to take care of things here, so the position of acting emperor naturally fell on Lu Zhiwei.

After all, Lu Zhiwei has a glorious past. Apart from anything else, he still has the ability to recite by rote. Of course, some people may ask, since they are all copying questions, wouldn't it be almost the same if we let Fan Su and others copy them?

That's different. If you don't believe me, just ask your college students. Can they all get high scores in open-book exams? There is also a difference between the test papers copied by poor students and those copied by top students.

So, when Hua Liluo and others arrived at the surface world again, they saw a certain stinky fox wreaking havoc in the heavenly punishment.

[Shen~Yue~Lan~You'd better explain it to me, otherwise, I don't mind killing your relatives for the sake of justice and letting you stay in the prison of the Time Management Bureau for two days.]

[Tsk, why are you so angry? When you, the Time Management Bureau, were controlling the situation, didn't you use this trick to replace the dead with the dead? Look at the Daming Palace. The things there are the ones you should put in prison.]

Everyone followed Shen Yuelan's gaze. Although they did not have Shen Yuelan's heterochromia, their years of experience in catching monsters told them that there was indeed something unusual there. It was just that the distance was too far and they could not see clearly what was causing trouble in the Daming Palace.

Knowing that she had wronged Shen Yuelan, Hua Liluo adjusted her hair awkwardly and said that she would do more for Shen Yuelan in the future, but Shen Yuelan didn't buy it. She said the same thing last time, and the time before that, but now she hasn't seen a single hair of Shen Yuelan.

[What are you talking about! I, Huali Luo, have been in the underworld for so many years, and I have never owed anyone anything. Why are you so anxious? I am saving it for you, and I will buy you the best one when I save it up. Even if others beg me to do this, I won’t allow it.]

Shen Yuelan looked at the old employees behind Hua Liluo with some suspicion. Seeing their evasive eye contact, Shen Yuelan knew that this might be another empty promise.

[Hmph, just keep it to yourself. If you get angry with me one day, I’ll change jobs! ]

[Little girl, you have learned to threaten me. Threatening is useless. Now I don’t have money, but I have my life! ]

【Are you serious? 】

[Hmph, there's nothing we can do. This world is so unfair. If you want to blame someone, blame your fat fox, right? ]
