Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

Ren Weiyong: "So, another new person has finally arrived? I was just teaching Lin Zheng how to cultivate and didn't check the group chat!"

Group owner Xiao Shan: "Has Uncle Jiu's son grown up yet?"

Ren Weiyong: "Lin Zheng is eighteen years old now!"

Group owner Xiao Shan: "Then Uncle Jiu shouldn't be in his sixties or seventies!"

Ren Weiyong: "More or less! Uncle Jiu is sixty-seven now, and he'll be gone to the underworld in three years!"

Group owner Xiao Shan: "Can you tell when someone will die?"

Ren Weiyong: "I didn't figure it out. I accidentally let it slip when Zhong Kui came to have a drink with Uncle Jiu last time!"

Ren Weiyong: "Zhong Kui said that after Uncle Jiu turns seventy, he will go to the underworld to be a bank manager and help him manage money!"

Group owner Xiao Shan: "Oh, I see!"

Zhan Zhao: "Speaking of which, isn't there another newcomer? Why hasn't he come out to speak?"

Zhang Chulan: "@Zhao Li!"

Zhao Li: "Hehe, hehe, hehehe!"

Liu Bei: "What's the deal with this newcomer?"

Zhao Li: "Insects fly, insects fly, who are you thinking of!"

Group owner Xiao Shan: "It seems Zhao Li is still in the mental hospital..."

You Ruo: "So, he can only return to normal after Dong Qing and Xiao Ya go and rescue him!"

Group owner Xiao Shan: "That should be it!"

Zhao Li: "One sheep, two sheep, three sheep..."

Han Li: "This Zhao Li has no soul, yet he can act as a ghost messenger. That's truly amazing!"

Yue Buqun: "It must be that their world is special, and ghost messengers don't use souls!"

Ren Weiyong: "Without a soul, only a body, that's just a walking corpse! In his world, ghost messengers might have to meet this condition to become ghost messengers, but the ghost messengers here are all in a soul state!"

Han Li: "What I'm curious about now is, if Zhao Li, who has no soul, can join the chat group, does that mean that in the future, stones and weeds will also be able to join the chat group?"

Group owner Xiao Shan: "This must be because Zhao Li's world is quite special. Although they don't have souls, they possess self-awareness! If they were truly a completely inanimate object, they probably wouldn't be able to join the chat group!"

Han Li: "If that's the case, it doesn't seem to be entirely unreasonable!"

Just as everyone was discussing when Zhao Li would be rescued, Zhao Li finally spoke normally in the chat group.

Zhao Li: "I'm so frustrated! Wang Xiaoya and Dong Qing are so slow! Hello everyone, my name is Zhao Li, please take care of me in the future!"

Zhang Sanfeng: "Congratulations, congratulations, you've finally recovered!"

Yan Chixia: "Congratulations, congratulations!"

Zhao Li: "Everyone, I'm going to rest now! Ever since I got injured and had to protect myself, I'm exhausted. I need to find a place to stay tomorrow; I can't stay in Dong Qing's dorm!"

Liu Angxing: "My dishes are ready. Shall we eat first and then go rest?"

As he spoke, Liu Angxing sent a red envelope to all members of the chat group.

Zhao Li: "This dish can actually glow? That's too fantastical!"

Lu Xiaoqian: "I never thought I'd see dishes that glow in Little Master Chef!"

Zhao Li: "This tastes amazing! I feel like I won't be able to eat anything else after this!"

Liu Angxing: "Shy GIF! Thank you for the compliment! If you want to eat it again in the future, just let me know!"

Group owner Xiao Shan: "Lu Xiaoqian, did you bring Sha Niu back?"

Lu Xiaoqian: "Yes, it's been found!"

Group admin Xiao Shan: "So what are you planning to do next?"

Lu Xiaoqian: "Of course, we need to find a way to upgrade the silly girl's version and then find help to deal with the old bull!"

A magical mobile phone world.

After finishing the dishes that Liu Angxing had brought, Lu Xiaoqian prepared to go find Zhu Bajie and You Suowei.

Soon, Lu Xiaoqian invited the two of them out.

Both of them were completely dumbfounded when they saw Lu Xiaoqian, who had invited them out.

Seeing the two bewildered individuals, Lu Xiaoqian explained, "Brother Pig, Brother Wei, come with me to a place first, where I'll tell you everything! Silly girl, time travel! Characters: Lu Xiaoqian, You Suowei, Pigsy..."

"Qian'er, what are you going to say? I need to rush back to find He Lan!" Pigsy interrupted Lu Xiaoqian.

You Suowei chimed in, "Xiao Qian, I'm really sorry about what Huang Mei did. I didn't explain things clearly to him. Is there something you wanted to discuss with me and Brother Zhu this time?"

After thinking for a moment, Lu Xiaoqian chose to use Sha Niu's memory function to send the video of the future he saw to Zhu Bajie and You Suowei.

Pigsy and Lu Xiaoqian were always good friends, so after watching it, Pigsy excitedly asked Lu Xiaoqian, "Qian'er, what you showed us, is it something that will happen in the future? How did you know about these things? And why is Old Bull here too? No, we have to let Monkey King deal with him!"

Compared to the simply excited Pigsy, You Suowei's reaction after watching the future video was more complicated.

He once wanted to kill Lu Xiaoqian, seize the silly girl, and even try to capture Tang Sanzang.

"Xiaoqian, I'm sorry, but please believe me, I won't make the same mistake again!" After a long silence, You Suowei looked at Lu Xiaoqian and asked, "Did you tell me and Brother Zhu about what will happen in the future this time in order to deal with the Bull Demon King? And how did you know? Did Silly Girl tell you?"

"Brother Wei, I believe you!" Lu Xiaoqian looked at You Suowei seriously and said, "It's true that Silly Girl found out about all this by accident! We don't know how far Lao Niu has gone, but fortunately he doesn't have the Crown Prince right now. He'll be waiting for an opportunity to snatch Silly Girl away, and we might have to lure him out at some point!"

So the three of them began to discuss a plan to deal with the Bull Demon King.

After parting ways with Zhu Bajie and You Suowei, Lu Xiaoqian shared the plan they had come up with in the group chat.

The group members also gave their own opinions on Lu Xiaoqian's plan.

As the plan gradually improved, Lu Xiaoqian naturally expressed his gratitude to everyone in the chat group.

Lu Xiaoqian: "By the way, is there any way to quickly level up Silly Girl?"

Group owner Xiao Shan: "Your group shop refreshes every day. Prepare more points, and you might be able to buy what you need someday, which can directly upgrade Silly Girl!"

Lu Xiaoqian: "Okay, thank you for the reminder, group admin. I will pay attention!"

The world at the end of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an.

To be honest, Li Ye was quite envious of Lu Xiaoqian's silly girl.

If I also had a silly girl, then I wouldn't have to work so hard!

However, Li Ye's hard work was not without results.

At least under his diligent and hardworking administration, production and life in the Guanzhong, Bashu, Yunnan and Guizhou regions have been greatly restored and developed.

His army was also constantly expanding and growing.

Even some ministers in the court began to urge Li Ye to take action against the military governors of Guandong and Jiangnan!

However, Li Ye did not grant the wishes of these ministers.

As for Li Ye, he wouldn't care how the military governors of Guandong and Jiangnan fought each other.

Anyone who wants to use his name to cause trouble can do so, as long as they pay him.

But as for borrowing his troops, there's no way you'll get them!

The one most helpless about Li Ye's policy of retreating and developing was Prince Zhu Quanzhong of Liang.

He couldn't get any support from the emperor and was constantly being exploited by him.

In order to deal with the rising power of Li Keyong, Zhu Quanzhong had recently ordered people to clean up Luoyang, the eastern capital, and to do a simple clean-up of the palaces. He then submitted a memorial to the emperor and all civil and military officials requesting that they return to Luoyang.

His plan was for the emperor to lead the imperial guards out of the pass, and then he would try to trick the emperor into giving him the power to command the troops, so that he could lead the imperial guards to fight Li Keyong.

The imperial guards of the late Tang Dynasty were gradually lured away by local warlords.

Many of the regional military governors surrounding Chang'an rose to power by raiding and dividing up the Shence Army.

Li Ye certainly wouldn't fall for it; I won't go to Dongdu.

They're determined not to leave Tongguan Pass, no matter what!

Since the King of Liang has repaired Luoyang, I will appoint you as the garrison commander of Luoyang.

What future could the dignified King of Liang have if he were to stay in that small place of Bianliang?

Be brave and seize the Eastern Capital. I will grant you that power.

Let's see if Li Keyong will beat you to death.

Li Keyong was four years younger than Zhu Quanzhong, but they were lifelong rivals.

Now that Li Ye had joined the chat group, he wasn't out of his mind and followed Zhu Quanzhong's advice to wage war against Li Keyong.

Therefore, Li Keyong's current attitude towards the emperor can be described as completely respectful.

Li Ye did not discriminate against Li Keyong because he was a Shatuo, and sold him the title of Prince of Jin early on.

Therefore, Li Keyong sent a large amount of salt to Chang'an every year, even though the salt lake originally belonged to the Tang Dynasty.

But don't worry too much about it.

These days, people may recognize you as the emperor, but you are the emperor.

If they don't acknowledge you, there's nothing you can do.

Chapter 545, Li Ye: Subduing the Enemy Without a Fight! (Please Subscribe!)

More importantly, Li Ye did not believe that he could take on Li Keyong single-handedly with the Imperial Guards he currently commanded.

Li Keyong and Zhu Quanzhong were the chosen ones of their time, and that was no exaggeration.

In the original timeline, Li Keyong in recent years was truly invincible, defeating all the heroes of the Central Plains.

Apart from Zhu Quanzhong, he had almost no rivals.

Therefore, even though Li Ye has now joined the chat group, he will not go head-to-head with a chosen one whose fortune is at its peak.

It's not that I'm afraid, and it's unnecessary!

Besides, Li Keyong was extremely loyal to the Tang Dynasty!

In the original timeline, the Tang emperor had been bullied into a state of utter weakness by that coward Li Maozhen, yet Li Keyong still came to the emperor's aid without hesitation.

After defeating Li Maozhen and his cowardly foes, Li Keyong escorted the emperor back to the capital.

Unlike Zhu Quanzhong, who, after coming to the aid of the emperor, conveniently eliminated the prime minister who was leading the army for the emperor and the princes of the imperial clan, and then forced the emperor to move the capital to Luoyang.

Therefore, Li Ye will not get involved in the feud between these two.

As long as I guard my own territory, neither Li Keyong nor Zhu Quanzhong will be able to do whatever they want to me as they did in the original timeline.

For so many years, the warlords have been in power, but none of them have actually usurped the Tang Dynasty!

The central government maintained a certain level of military strength, mediated between the central government and local warlords, and these local warlords checked and balanced each other. This was the basic political structure of the mid-to-late Tang Dynasty.

This balance was originally disrupted by the Huang Chao Rebellion.

However, Li Ye's timely intervention has successfully restored this balance.

Therefore, neither Zhu Quanzhong, Li Keyong, nor any other military governors have any intention of usurping the Tang dynasty and establishing their own rule.

The premise is that the emperor doesn't lose his mind and forcibly reduce the power of the vassal states.

As for what you said about Li Ye's actions in Bashu, Qianzhou, and Nanzhao, those areas were originally the royal family's private domain, and they could do whatever they wanted!

Besides, Nanzhao has been separated from the country for almost two hundred years.

Now that the emperor has taken it back, the various vassal states must submit memorials to congratulate him!

In fact, the area including Jiangnan is now considered a wild and undeveloped land compared to the Central Plains!

The small vassal states there have always been the most subservient territories to the imperial family.

The warlords in the Central Plains had little reaction to the emperor's intention to restore his rule over Jiangnan and Lingnan.

Because they are too far away, it's none of their business.

If Zhu Quanzhong hadn't defied the world and killed Li Ye and Emperor Ai, the Tang Dynasty could have survived for many more years!
