Chapter 443 Finale!

After dealing with the matter of the Great Food Kingdom, Li Yan returned to Chang'an. Two months later, the Expeditionary Force launched an attack on Eastern Rome. The war lasted for only three months. The once glorious Roman Empire ended in Li Yan's hands. Then, the Expeditionary Force entered Europe and eliminated the scattered forces there. The Expeditionary Forces in other places also began to conquer other places that had not yet set foot, including Africa and the American continent. This long journey of conquest took a full ten years, and it took another ten years. The Tang Empire basically completed its rule over the occupied land.

Under Li Yan's various means, the entire world was initially integrated successfully. In the East Asia region, in thirty years, the former cultural relics in these areas had disappeared, and they all respected the culture of the Tang Dynasty. The young people in these colonies did not remember any disappearing countries such as Japan and Goguryeo. In their mouths, they only knew this country of the Tang Empire, and the older generation did not have any nostalgia for the past countries, because their lives were improved countless times because of the Tang Empire. Faced with such a superior life, they unconditionally chose to recognize their identity as the people of the Tang Dynasty.

As for the Great Food Kingdom and Europe, although this assimilation is difficult, in the face of the attraction of high-quality life, they are slowly adapting to their new identities. Although they are not as thorough as those of the Eastern assimilation, there is no riot again. Li Yan believes that it will not take long before they will completely integrate into the Tang Empire.

"Your Majesty, have you really decided?" Li Yan is now over fifty years old and has a lot of descendants. Sometimes he himself can't count his children and grandchildren. Over the years, the Tang Dynasty has changed faster and faster. It can be said that the current level of technology has even surpassed the modern decades. More than 40 years of scientific education have cultivated a large number of scientific and technological talents. These people are now constantly replacing positions of intelligent people and gradually becoming the main force of Datang Technology.

Li Ran quietly accompanied Li Yan. With the popularization of modern knowledge, the people's thoughts became more and more open and the network was highly developed, which made the transmission speed of various types of information reach a terrifying speed. With the high development of civilization, Li Yan felt more and more that the feudal system was no longer suitable for the Tang Empire at this time, and this new civilization needed a suitable system.

Li Yan said slowly: "The development of history will always eliminate some outdated things, technology is being updated, and this civilized management system also needs to be updated, but we do not learn from the modern earth. We will directly span until six hundred years later."

Li Ran nodded when she heard this. Li Yan meant to let the robot serve humans directly. "Well, okay, now the Tang Dynasty people are no longer unfamiliar with robots, and there is nothing wrong with implementing this way."

Standing up, Li Yan looked at Li Ran with no expression and said with emotion: "Old guy, thank you so much for the years. Without you, the Tang Dynasty would not have developed to the level of today. This is all based on your support, and now it has to keep you busy. I have always believed that human energy should not be focused only on food, clothing, housing and transportation and fighting with you. Everyone should have the right to do what he likes, rather than being bound by matter. In addition to the earth, we are also facing the vast starry sky. I would rather let the people focus on scientific research and wait for one day for human beings to enter the interstellar era."

Li Ran showed a confused look. He could never understand what feelings are. After years of getting along, Li Yan has regarded him as a friend, but Li Ran could not understand what friendship is. He said: "This is a reasonable development model."

Faced with the increasingly liberated Tang people, Li Yan and Li Ran's conversation basically set the development model of the Tang Dynasty in the future. Not long after, Li Yan announced the abolition of the special rights of the aristocratic class, everyone was equal before the law, and the word "citizen" was adopted for the first time, and there was no longer any monarch or minister. However, Li Yan decided to retain the royal family, but the royal family would no longer have the right to rule the country for generations. It was just a symbol of the country. Like other people, only those recognized by the citizens of the Tang Dynasty could govern the country.

In the face of this reform, the Tang people were very calm. For them, this change might have come a long time ago. Therefore, after Li Yan announced this measure, it did not cause much impact. In fact, Li Yan has been silently changing society to the era of equality for everyone over the years. Therefore, this claim is just a superficial article. In essence, the Tang Dynasty has basically been like this.

The royal family no longer has absolute rights, but Li Yan was still elected by the people to be responsible for the governance of the country because of his high prestige. The only disappointment was Li Yan's descendants. They lost the glory of inheriting this right. Therefore, this made some unwilling princes take actions against Li Yan, especially the princes in remote provinces, who openly demanded to break away from the autonomy of the Tang Empire. However, Li Yan used tough measures to make these waves suppressed again. At this time, the princes woke up and were far from being a match for the father, so they had to obediently adapt to the development of social trends.

The reform of the court is simple, but it takes time to implement it. In the remaining time, Li Yan focused on improving the management system and integrating robots into the Tang Dynasty society. This time it took more than 30 years. Until Li Yan retired, the Tang Empire basically completed a new society where robots provide services to mankind. The Tang Dynasty citizens of this period were undoubtedly happy. After they were born, they did not need to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation. They could have enough time to study, games, fall in love, and do what they like, instead of being overwhelmed by houses, cars, and money every day. Life is an enjoyment rather than a painful experience for them.

Of course, this does not mean that they can do nothing and corrode this society like parasites. The noble national quality makes them voluntarily bear the responsibilities of society. Whether it is sweeping the streets, scientific research institutions, or government officials, there are people who voluntarily do it, because it does not involve money, but the equality of obligations and responsibilities. This is the meaning of the citizens of the Tang Dynasty.

Society is undergoing rapid changes. Because of the blank space, the Tang Empire's technological acceptance level is even higher than that of modern society. Because they are easy to accept some strange theories, modern society will resist the dissemination of some knowledge because of the remnants of old ideas. When Li Yan was 90 years old, space tourism has become a common thing. Datang Technology's technology has successfully surpassed modern society. At this time, modern society has basically formed a federated state, but it is still a union between various countries. Under Li Yan's instruction, all intelligent people have evacuated from modern society because Li Yan was worried that the time and space gate would be discovered, leading to conflict between the two worlds.

"Old man, are you here to visit the tombs again this year?" In the Royal Cemetery outside Chang'an City, Li Yan walked by the tombstones with a cane. The names of Cui Yingying, Su Moer and others were engraved on these tombstones. Time flies, and when you look back, Li Yan finds that he is already alone.

Turning his decayed body, Li Yan looked at an old man who guarded the tomb. He had been guarding the tomb here for twenty years. Seeing that Li Yan had been calling the old man affectionately, however, Li Yan had retired now, so it was not too much to call him. He smiled and said, "Yes, let's see them, people, that's it. No matter how brilliant your life is, it's just a pile of loess in the end. This mechanism is all done, and it's for that? Alas..."

The gravekeeper was stunned for a moment when he heard this, looking at Li Yan's remembrance look, and did not want to disturb him anymore, but left quietly.

The entire cemetery was quiet without a trace of sound. Li Yan walked by tombstones one by one, constantly recalling his life in his mind, sometimes smiling and sometimes frowning. However, no matter what happened in the past, it has become the clouds and smoke of the past, leaving only traces of memory and a faint nostalgia.

After staying in the cemetery for a while, Li Yan left quietly. The next day, a spacecraft taking off from Australia left the earth. Li Ran was still young on the spacecraft, and it seemed that there had never been any change.

"Old guy, it's time for us to say goodbye." Li Yan stroked the ring in his hand, then handed him to Li Ran, and said, "Shit it into the sun, I don't want anyone else to get it."

After taking the ring, Li Ran looked at Li Yan, whose signs of life were getting weaker and weaker. He understood that the master was about to leave him, and a tear suddenly slid down at this time, but he still faithfully executed the order.

Looking at a ray of light rushing towards the distant stars, Li Yan smiled with satisfaction, and this smile became eternal...

In the 60th year of the Tang Empire, the founding emperor Li Yan passed away, and the whole country was sad. In order to commemorate Li Yan's great achievements throughout his life, a statue was permanently erected in the center of the Tang Empire, becoming an eternal symbol of the Tang Empire... (The book ends)

Although I was unwilling, the book "My Backyard is the Tang Dynasty" was over. I was really reluctant to leave it, but if I continued to write it, it was just a dog-tailed squid, which was just annoying. I blamed me for being too willful as a novice, which led to the development of this book too fast, and eventually it ended up being in writing. Perhaps some people said it was a bad end, but Snail really tried its best. I can only hope that the following book can avoid these mistakes, and at the same time I hope everyone can continue to support Snail.
Chapter completed!
