In this chaotic world, he initially wanted to remain aloof, but the tide of history only grew stronger, forcing him to keep moving forward. "Immortals are high above, ineffably noble, invincible figures of their era. The literary path has never produced such a person," someone told him.

   This novel truly embodies the essence of Zhang Zai's four lines. Comparable to *Romance of the Three Kingdoms* and *Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties*, it's a masterpiece with the potential to be passed down through generations! *Emperor Renzu of Tang*, nearly a million words long, was completed in mid-September. I recommend reading the comments section of the last chapter first, where the author summarizes the entire novel. The author's writing style, word choice, plot structure, imperial strategies, political maneuvering, emotional threads, military warfare, court intrigue, and governance are all top-notch. His writing is astonishing, his scope grand, his themes lofty, his thoughts profound, his knowledge solid, his cultural background deep, and his political maneuvering superb. If you don't like it after reading it, you can slap me! It's not a mindless system-crushing novel; it focuses on political intrigue, large-scale ancient warfare, the ongoing romance between Shen Luoli, and multiple parallel storylines involving court intrigue and governance. It blends historical figures from the Zhenguan era with those from *Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties*, adding modern military and philosophical elements for a disruptive effect. Modern thought and educational achievements are used as experiments in the evolution of civilization in the Tang Dynasty.

    "I Have a Book That Can Ferry All People Across the World," by Haoran, a man named Xu Qingzhou, meaning "I wish to offer the world a light boat to float on a small river." 72 Notes * Chapter 92: Everything that torments you is ultimately your salvation * 2024/07/06 Underlined: "What you desire or do not desire is not as good as what you are willing to accept; what you gain or do not gain is not as good as what you are at peace with." * Chapter 598: Reasoning... * 2024/09/16 Underlined: "Before, I always thought that regret was what I loved. 2024/09/16 Underlined: Separated by mountains and seas, mountains and seas cannot be leveled. Now I know that the sea has boats to cross, the mountains have roads to travel, mountains and seas can all be leveled. The hardest thing to level is the human heart. No one is without regret, it's just that some people don't cry out in pain." 2024/09/16 Add underline: "Later, I thought regret was like the young man at first sight, drawing his bow to the fullest, unafraid of time or wind. But in the end, the east wind awoke the hero's dream, and life wore down the young man's heart. I originally thought that we would meet again someday, but now I realize that once we part, there is no return, and we can only meet again in dreams." 2024/09/16 Add underline: "Whether it's unrequited love, reluctant letting go, unwilling to accept loss, or unable to obtain what one desires, it all boils down to two words, but it's not regret." * Chapter 870 Entering the Game Alone, Fear or Not* 2025/03/23 Add underline: He chuckled softly: "How can one speak of defeat before the matter is accomplished? A floating object trying to shake a tree, an ant trying to topple the sky—one is a fool's dream, the other is a pipe dream. To the heavens, I am like a floating object, like an ant. But to the heavens, I am like a towering tree, high in the sky. To say that I can win sounds like a pipe dream." Chapter 895 The Youth Enters the Game, Heaven and Earth Are in Turmoil* 2025/08/08 Add underline: "If he enters the game, he will surely wield the pieces, and the vast world will never be at peace." 2025/08/08 Add underline: If he remains uninvolved, he will observe the game silently. If he enters the game alone, he will surely wield the pieces, stirring up trouble and unrest throughout the three realms. 2025/08/08 Add underline: If the youth does not enter the game, everything remains normal, calm and peaceful. 2025/08/08 Add underline: If the youth enters the game, then he will have achieved his wish. 2025/08/08 Added underline: "Before, you and I were outside the cage, looking bewildered." "Later, you and I were inside the cage, speechless." "Now, with a blade hanging overhead and the heavens about to collapse, things remain unclear. If he could see things more clearly than you and I, would he still have entered this predicament?" 2025/08/08 Added underline: "My heart is like a white cloud, always free; my will is like flowing water, going wherever it pleases. Let nature take its course." *Chapter 896 Xu Qingzhou's Thoughts* 2025/08/08 Added underline: For the sake of his heart's desire, he must endure hardship and bide his time. 2025/08/08 Added underline: The great fire of catastrophe burned across the wilderness; someone had to perish in the flames. Therefore. A tacit understanding. Therefore. Turning a blind eye. * Chapter 897 Three Hundred Years of Waiting* 2025/08/08 (Add underline) After all, the Master once said that a gentleman flees from trouble to better preserve his compassion. 2025/08/08 (Add underline) Out of sight, out of mind. Out of ear, out of mind. Idle clouds and reflections in the pool, the sun rises and sets, seasons change and stars shift, autumns come and go.

No one knows. * Chapter 911 In the Forget-Worry Mountain, Time Flies. * 2025/08/08 Added underline: The young man's great path blesses all things, brings forth all things, and gives birth to all things. Like the mountain wind, like the river, it traverses heaven and earth. Like a small boat, it carries the world and ferries all living beings. It is all living beings. Not just humans, nor just demons. It is all illusory, laughable to speak of, and premature to act. The young man lives in the mountains, using the art of contemplating the heavens to deduce all kinds of causes and effects, and roaming the vast starry sky. 2025/08/08 Added underline: Day after day, year after year, the mountains and rivers are safe and sound, and he enjoys the simple pleasures of white tea. 2025/08/08 The underlined boy looked at the sky and said in a deep voice, "Because the power of life lies in nonconformity~" * Chapter 915 Mr. Xiaozhou, do you have any worries?* 2025/08/08 "Drink today, for tomorrow we may die!" * Chapter 916 The Master's wish is for a world of peace and prosperity. * 2025/08/08 "Where the sun and moon shine, where rivers flow, that is the world." * Chapter 924 The Master's Speech* 2025/08/08 After exchanging greetings, everyone stood up, gazing at the young master with varying expressions, remaining silent. * Chapter 925 Who is willing to go with me to that mortal world?* 2025/08/08 In the past, a cup of wine in Huangzhou was offered to all under heaven. That year, a hundred years in the South China Sea, millions were protected. For thousands of years, the Master has been doing good deeds and teaching all beings, never resting for a single day. 2025/08/08 Added underline: "Life is fleeting, like grass in autumn, coming like wind and rain, going like dust." 2025/08/08 Added underline: "Birth is emptiness, death is understanding; all living beings are the same, ultimately just fleeting visitors in this world." 2025/08/08 Added underline: This journey is not for watching a play. This journey is not for defending the city. This journey is not for attacking the city.

August 8, 2025: Forget-Worry Mountain, for two thousand years, has remained indifferent to human affairs. Now, having left the human world, it has brought an end to the conflicts of the world. * Chapter 931: Forget-Worry Mountain Comes to Stop the War* August 8, 2025: A man of great virtue and wisdom, with a sage-like demeanor, his brows as deep as the Milky Way and as compassionate as rain. * Chapter 934: A Single Word Decides the Fate of the World. * August 8, 2025: A grand formation hangs in the air; a young man draws his sword, and thunder ravages the world. Divine soldiers descend from the heavens; Master Forget-Worry, he brings an end to the conflicts of the world. * Chapter 940: Discussion of the Dao in the Mountains. * August 8, 2025: A gentleman should live before the world lives and die after the world dies. 2025/08/08 Added underline: "Avoiding fate, shunning cause and effect, all kinds of shackles bind my true self. Following fate, accepting cause and effect, only today do I know who I am." * Chapter 942 What are you after? * 2025/08/08 Added underline: The youth's domineering nature is like a thunderclap. His youthful spirit surpasses the mountain wind. His youthful ambition is to slay gods, immortals, and open the heavens. * Chapter 944 The Two Emperors of the Void and the Underworld * 2025/08/08 Added underline: [Heaven and earth give birth to gentlemen, and gentlemen govern all things.] 2025/08/08 Added underline: [The moment to turn the tide, the moment to support the collapsing building, who else but me?] 2025/08/08 Added underline: [Regardless of right or wrong, without judging good or evil, without distinguishing right from wrong, only seeking a clear conscience.] 2025/08/08 Added underline: [Someone has to do this, so why can't that person be me?] ] 2025/08/08 Added underline [Fighting against Heaven and Earth is endlessly enjoyable.] 2025/08/08 Added underline [To find a way to live for all living beings, death is the only option.] * Chapter 945 Entering the World, Carrying the Sword, Abandoning the Pen * 2025/08/08 Added underline "The gods in Heaven are unrighteous, I will carry my sword to save all living beings." * Chapter 947 The Swordsman Wields the Sword, Will Die for All Living Beings. * 2025/08/08 Added underline "The swordsman wields the sword, and should die for all living beings." * Chapter 954 The Righteousness of All Gentlemen * 2025/08/08 Added underline All living beings are born from Heaven and Earth, and Heaven and Earth nurture all things.

Second wish for the world: that it may be peaceful and tranquil, free from strife and calamity, with spring, summer, autumn, and winter evergreen, and mountains, rivers, and all things thriving. My three wishes to you all: May your future be bright and promising, may flowers bloom in succession, may your journey through the clouds be arduous but your return be assured, and may your hearts be filled with the stars. * Chapter 1055 A Thousand Years of Ascension* 2025/08/08 Add underline: The boat departs, the person returns, the initial dream fades, the wind rises, the fate is severed, and the evening clouds deepen. * Chapter 1073 A fish and a spirit, deeply embracing each other. * 2025/08/08 Add underline: Not all flowers will bloom for you, nor should all flowers be picked by you. * Chapter 1105 Another year of farewell. * 2025/08/08 Add underline: "There are mornings and evenings in the human world, there are reunions in mountains and seas, each strives on their own path, and though separated by a thousand miles, we share the same wind." * Chapter 1108 The Chaotic Limitless Realm. * 2025/08/08 Add underline: One generation of kings, one generation of ministers; one dynasty, one generation of people. * Chapter 1149 Sudden Departure* 2025/08/08 (Underlined) You were unintentional, yet your aloofness stirred up a torrent.

Of the six Heavenly Emperors of the Celestial Court, the young man has fulfilled his wishes one by one. * Chapter 1151 A Thousand Miles of Green Oasis. * 2025/08/08 (Underlined) The young man slowly opened his eyes, softly reciting, "I open my eyes in desolation, like a rebirth from ashes." 2025/08/08 (Underlined) Withered trees spring back to life, wild grasses regrow, flowers wither and bloom again...

Looking back at Guidao Mountain behind him, the young man's eyes held an indelible sense of vicissitude and sorrow.

"Your great-grandfather (Su Xu's father, Su Gao) was a wealthy landowner in Meishan. During a great famine, he distributed all his wealth, opening his granaries to save only a few dozen tenant farmers in his village!" "But when I was in office in Hangzhou, drought raged and plague was rampant. With a single official document, I mobilized grain from Zhejiang and Jiangsu, established medical clinics, and invited renowned doctors. A single decree saved tens of thousands of lives!" "Your ingenious ideas, if not for my forceful implementation, could not have had such a significant impact!" "This is the weight of power!"

"If you want to practice this 'way of benevolence and righteousness,' you must study hard, pass the imperial examination, and enter officialdom!" "Only when you hold power and stand in the court can you say 'to establish a destiny for the people'!"

"Do you understand my expectations and hopes?" Su Dongpo placed his hands heavily on his young son's still tender shoulders, his eyes filled with heavy expectations. Su Dun's mouth gaped open, a profound shock and soul-stirring emotion welling up within him. In his later life, he had lost his father in infancy, and his mother's only wish for him was peace and happiness. Never before had anyone held such high expectations and hopes for him! "Father..." His nose tingled, his eyes reddened, and Su Dun's voice choked with emotion. He bowed deeply to Su Dongpo, his voice filled with unprecedented solemnity: "Father's teachings are like gold and jade, like a warning bell! Your son... Will certainly live up to your teachings, the family's expectations, and will never dare to dishonor the Su family's tradition!" His small body trembled slightly with emotion, each word seeming to have been plucked from his heart. His father's earnest teachings and patient guidance tonight, from the heavy history of the family's rise and fall, to the stark reality of suffering, to the resounding Confucian ideal of saving the world, every word from the bottom of his heart, completely reshaped his understanding of "the imperial examination" and "becoming an official," and made his vague ideal of "saving the world" clearer and more visible. Before, it was nothing more than the arrogance and condescension of a time traveler. From now on, it is a responsibility and commitment to the people of this land. Seeing the realization and determination shining through the tears in his son's eyes, Su Dongpo's tense face finally relaxed, the heaviness between his brows dissolving, replaced by a deep sense of relief. He reached out and gently patted Su Dun's still-bowed shoulder: "To know one's mistakes and correct them is the greatest virtue. Remember my words today, do not disappoint your father again, and do not fail your rare talent, nor the high hopes the Su family has placed on you." "Yes! Dun'er will remember it!"
