Real Cthulhu Running Game - #2321 - Chapter 2262: Enough wild history
“Except for the daughter of the great Confucian scholar, the family circumstances of the other women married by the previous prince seemed to be quite ordinary at the beginning. It can be said that there is nothing special about it. However, these families can all be described as hidden dragons in the abyss. , that is, there was only one chance to soar into the sky, and the former prince gave them this opportunity. After all, they were considered relatives of the emperor! So after more than ten years, the father-in-law of the former prince became He has become the best in his field and provided him with a lot of support.”
Dong Qing said seriously: “Just like today’s competition for the heir apparent in Kowloon, there were several competitors for the crown prince in the former dynasty, and they had a large number of supporters behind them, so everyone fought overtly and secretly countless times. , but the former prince finally relied on his last father-in-law to win the fruit of victory. However, the daughter of this father-in-law was not in the genealogy of the previous prince, because the former prince did not have a matchmaker to marry, and he did not even have the most basic name. Not even a cent.”
“Uh, Dong Qing, are you talking about Concubine Zhen?”
As soon as Dong Qing finished speaking, Xu Bin couldn’t help but said: “This Concubine Zhen is only recorded in some folklore. In short, she is the daughter of a certain ranger. It’s just that this ranger is not only very powerful, but also has a large number of subordinates. He has recruited hundreds of masters, and he was considered a rather special figure in the ancient capital at that time. After all, the identity of a ranger is quite special.”
The ancient capital in Xu Bin’s mouth refers to the place where the dragon veins gathered before the establishment of the New Dragon Empire. Therefore, the previous dynasties and the dynasties before the previous dynasty chose to use this place as their companion capital, and the emperor would move to the ancient capital every year before and after winter for a few days. months, and would not leave until the beginning of spring, because the ancient capital, as a place where dragon veins gather, is not only warm in winter and cool in summer, but also provides dragon energy to the emperor and his children, making them immune to all diseases.
However, the reason why the new Dragon Emperor is called the New Dragon Emperor is because he cut off the original dragon vein and found a new dragon vein of his own. Therefore, the ancient capital fell directly, and now there is only one name left. It is a small city in the ancient city, because to put it bluntly, this ancient city was just the royal palace in the ancient capital.
As for the rangers at that time, they can actually be described as martial arts masters, because they all have good martial arts skills. Not only can they defeat several armed warriors with their bare hands, but their agility also allows them to come and go freely. Therefore, these rangers were considered a very powerful but also very loose non-governmental organization at the time.
The main reason why they are said to be very loose is that these warriors are all good at force, and there is a saying that “Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second”, so when these knights get together, they will inevitably compete with each other. Sometimes It is inevitable that you will get a little angry, and then conflicts will easily arise. . . And everyone knows that ancient martial arts competitions are still prone to accidents. After all, the boxing and kicking skills at that time were not aimed at cultivating one’s character and exercising. Therefore, many more formal martial arts competitions would require both parties to sign a life and death certificate first. .
Therefore, in some novels that “Liu Peng” has read, it is mentioned that the rangers in those days were all in small groups in a certain teahouse or tavern. Apart from eating and drinking, they only exchanged martial arts training experiences. However, they also often met Because they went to the wrong place, they clashed with other rangers, and then a fight outside the city was inevitable; so some smart rangers simply found a place to open a martial arts gym, where they had similar temperaments. Ranger friends with similar martial arts skills are invited to work together. This can be regarded as the prototype of some martial arts today.
Therefore, in Liu Xing’s view, the martial arts at this time is not so much a sect, but a gang, because these rangers usually have several followers, and more powerful martial arts have more than double digits of followers, so If the father-in-law of the former prince could really respond to his call and gather hundreds of rangers to obey his orders, it would be equivalent to having thousands of elite private soldiers.
It is no wonder that the prince of the previous dynasty officially became the prince in the ancient capital. You must know that the other princes of the previous dynasty were officially installed at the Sheji celebration during the autumn harvest every year.
However, this incident was not very glorious. In addition, the reputation of the knights at that time was quite polarized. Therefore, it was normal for the former prince not to recognize this marriage, because he had not officially become the new emperor. , the name of this prince may be taken off at any time, especially when your reputation is not good, there will definitely be many people who will stand up to criticize you, so in order to avoid being criticized by some people who like “pleasant grudges” “The ranger was dragged into the water. It was normal for the former prince to choose to cut at this time.
Moreover, the former prince was also pushing for something at this time, which was to allow some rangers who opened martial arts schools to transform, allowing them to turn their martial arts schools into sects, and give them a resounding name for the martial arts they had practiced for many years. , such as the Five Tigers Cutting Door Sword, Qinglong Yanyue Slash, etc. Therefore, some sects that have been passed down to this day and can be ranked in the top 100 in the world are considered to be related to the prince of the previous dynasty, so their rankings are actually lower than they actually are. The support they can get every year will be less. For example, if there are limited places when joining Wutai, then disciples of these sects will easily lose the election.
Therefore, the reason why the new Dragon Emperor was able to get the support of many martial arts people was actually related to the fact that the previous prince only supported certain rangers, and these rangers also had many enemies, so when these rangers became powerful, they would inevitably be dissatisfied with themselves. His old opponents ridiculed him, and even directly drove them away, so these people naturally joined the new Dragon Emperor’s side.
“All in all, some of the actions of the former prince are quite similar to those of modern people. For example, when he married the daughter of a great scholar, he showed his erudite side, but there are some things that cannot be known from books. As a prince, he didn’t have many opportunities to leave the palace and his own palace, so many people back then were surprised that the previous prince could answer so many weird and tricky questions.”
Dong Qing suddenly changed the subject and said: “You also know that this wild history may not be true, but he must be wild enough. For example, some people have connected Hua Xiong and Hua Tuo, and even said that Hua Tuo is Hua Tuo. Xiong’s father! After all, the surname Hua is quite rare, but I remember that Hua Xiong may have been named Ye, because the characters Ye and Hua were written very similarly at that time, so there is the possibility of misinformation, and the ages of Hua Xiong and Hua Tuo are actually It’s almost the same, it shouldn’t last more than one reincarnation, which is twelve years, so I think Hua Tuo might be Hua Xiong!”
“ah?”
As soon as Dong Qing said this, everyone present looked at him in shock. They didn’t expect him to be so wild.
“Hey hey hey.”
Dong Qing smiled and said: “To be honest, I think it is better to say that Hua Xiong is Hua Tuo than to say that Hua Xiong is Hua Tuo’s son, because according to official historical records, Hua Xiong is not a simple military general. But a governor under Dong Zhuo! You must know that the position of governor still has certain requirements for intelligence. It can be seen that the real Hua Xiong should not be a simple military commander! Moreover, the medical level at that time was relatively limited, and common injuries In addition to colds and fevers, there are also various knife wounds and bites, so Hua Xiong is also well-informed in this regard, and it is reasonable to scrape Guan Yu’s bones to treat poisons in the future.” Although in history According to the records, Hua Tuo came from the state of Pei, but after he completed his studies, he began to travel around the world and left his footprints in treating diseases and saving people in many places. This sounds very beautiful, but if we think about it carefully, we will feel that This is a bit wrong. After all, the Three Kingdoms were in turmoil at that time. Not to mention the mutual attacks between various princes, the number of bandits along the way was also staggering, so both “Three Kingdoms” and “The Romance of the Three Kingdoms” recorded Many famous generals came from rough backgrounds, and when they first appeared on the scene, they always had the prefix of a certain copycat!”
“So if Hua Tuo, a doctor, is incompetent, he wouldn’t dare to run around at this time, because these bandits will not show mercy to you! But if Hua Tuo is really Hua Xiong, then this matter makes sense. Well, firstly, it is not difficult to travel around with Hua Xiong’s strength, and secondly, at this time, Hua Xiong needs some time to refresh his resume and create a new identity for himself, so in order to avoid his If someone discovers any clues about your new identity, or if a casual search reveals any flaws, then the best way is to make yourself visible on the land of Kyushu.”
“And if we take the official history as the standard, there is a good explanation for why Hua Xiong transformed into Hua Tuo! Because Hua Xiong only appeared once in the official history, and this time it was Hua Xiong who was chasing Sun Jian. The remnants of the army were killed when they were defeated, so the defeated Hua Xiong must have no face to see Dong Zhuo again, and it is normal to look in the wrong direction among the rebellious army. After all, in order to escape, he ran wherever there was a way; Therefore, when the escaped Hua Xiong came to his senses, he might have already reached Hulao Pass, so he simply made the mistake and chose to remain anonymous and start a new life.”
“As for why Hua Xiong saved Guan Yu, it should be because of the mutual sympathy between the generals. Especially when Guan Yu agreed to the bone scraping treatment plan, Hua Xiong admired Guan Yu even more and felt that he had He should be killed by Guan Yu, so…”
“Wait! Dong Qing, are you too wild?! Do you want to say that the Warm Wine Killing Hua Xiong in “The Romance of the Three Kingdoms” was actually passed down by Hua Xiong himself? You must know that “The Romance of the Three Kingdoms” is all It was written by someone more than a thousand years later.” Yang De said with a shocked look on his face.
“Huh? How did you guess that I thought so?”
Dong Qing said with a smile: “The reason why “The Romance of the Three Kingdoms” is called a novel is because many of its plots are very different from the official history, and in order to describe some characters, there are situations where the crown and the crown are taken. This is done to make these characters Being able to appear early and make a difference! For example, in the official history of the eighteen princes’ crusade against Dong Zhuo, although the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang may have joined the coalition, they were too weak to be worth mentioning, so “The Romance of the Three Kingdoms” did not Don’t blame everyone else’s plot on Liu Guanzhang’s head.
“After all, Liu Guan and Zhang are important characters in “The Romance of the Three Kingdoms”, so they must appear in the plot where the eighteen princes challenge Dong. After all, this is the most important plot in the early stages of the novel, so it would be too embarrassing if Liu Guan and Zhang are absent. It’s embarrassing. After all, who’s protagonist would suddenly disappear for a few chapters after appearing in the beginning, and then suddenly appear again? Isn’t this too abrupt? And except for Zhang Guanli Dai, all the characters in “The Romance of the Three Kingdoms” Some plots also refer to some folklore, which of course also includes some unofficial history.”
At this point, Liu Xing felt that Dong Qing was already arrogant and arrogant. “As for why Hua Tuo persuaded Cao Cao to do craniotomy, besides wanting to test his medical skills, there was actually another reason. The first possibility is to kill Cao Cao! Because in a sense, Cao Cao can be regarded as the biggest beneficiary of Dong Zhuo’s death, because Cao Cao not only welcomed back the emperor, but also gave himself the ability to hold the emperor hostage and order the princes. , and Dong Zhuo is no longer a worry, after all, if Dong Zhuo is still there, the baby during the Battle of Guandu will have to guard against Dong Zhuo’s sneak attacks from behind!”
This seems to make some sense?
When Liu Xing was reading some online novels about the Three Kingdoms, someone mentioned that if Dong Zhuo could see through Wang Yun’s beauty trap, he would become Cao Cao’s biggest threat, because Dong Zhuo, who is entrenched in Chang’an, can get support from Liangzhou. , after all, Liangzhou is his real territory, so it will not take many years for Dong Zhuo to regain his strength. By then, whether he goes south to take Bashu or directly sends his troops to the east, he will have the opportunity to annex the world.
As a result, Cao Cao was a little uncomfortable in the Battle of Guandu, because he had to send people to prepare for Dong Zhuo’s sudden attack. In addition, Liu Bei had to beware of Xuzhou, which would make Cao Cao’s troops even more stretched.
So for Cao Cao, Dong Zhuo died at the right time.
“I can finally see it. Dong Qing, you are indeed engaged in the entertainment industry in the real world. Your ability to speak like this is really great.”
Schiller said with a smile: “Actually, I have also heard of a wilder unofficial history, that is, Qin Shihuang and Liu Bang are the same person. After all, they are very close in age, and there are many talents around Liu Bang, so if Liu Bang is really Qin Shihuang’s words make sense.”
“I have heard of this wild history, and there is also a similar wild history in this martial arts module, that is, the new Dragon Emperor may be the son of the former crown prince and Concubine Zhen! The reason is that the new Dragon Emperor is just the right age, and The former prince has also been avoiding the new Dragon Emperor.”
Is it so wild?
