My name is Shen An, an ordinary graduate student in the Department of Modern History. After staying up late to read "The Rise and Fall of the Tang Dynasty", I fell into the book. When I woke up, I found myself lying in a shabby inn with a letter of recommendation in my arms, saying that I was going to Chang'an to join a distant relative.
Before I could recover from the shock of time travel, I heard a drunken voice coming from the next room: "The five-flowered horse, the golden fur, the call will be exchanged for the fine wine——"
I pushed the door open and saw a middle-aged man holding a bottle of wine and pouring wine into his mouth. He smelled of alcohol, but his eyes were astonishingly bright. I know this person. The portraits in the textbooks, the poems in the Chinese textbooks, Li Bai, Li Taibai, are alive and sitting in front of me.
"Little brother, would you like to take a bite too?" He looked at me with drunken eyes.
I swallowed: "Brother Li, do you know that in twenty years you will be accused of treason and Yelang will be exiled?"
Li Bai's wine jar was smashed to the ground and shattered to pieces.
From that day on, my life took a strange turn. While I was working as a "prophet" for Li Bai and Du Fu, I was invited into the Daming Palace to meet Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. I told him that in three years Anlushan would rebel, in fifteen years the Tang Dynasty would turn from prosperity to decline, in one hundred years Jiedushi would seize the country, and in two hundred and fifty-three years Zhu Wen would kill his descendants, and the Tang Dynasty would be destroyed.
Li Longji didn't kill me. He just stayed silent for a long time and then asked me: "What can you do?"
I took a deep breath: "I can make Datang survive.
