Zhou Country is the most developed country in the world that none could compare.

Since Lu Yanzhou, the founding emperor of the Zhou Country, overthrew the decadent DaYan and established the DaZhou Dynasty with Wang Ze, the DaZhou Dynasty began to rise rapidly.

In its long history, DaZhou has encountered many troubles, but it has survived and developed better and better each time.

Today, Zhou Country is recognized as the most powerful country in the world, and it has been helping other countries, so it also has a very good international reputation. People all over the world are proud to come to Zhou Country to settle or study abroad.

Lu Yanzhou University in Zhou country is recognized as the best university in the world.

Today is Lu Yanzhou and Wang Ze’s 500th death anniversary. Lu Yanzhou University held a special event to commemorate the two seniors who made great contributions to Zhou Country.

Lu Yanzhou and Wang Ze have been in office for fifty years. During these fifty years, they have done many many things.

For example, the development of agriculture has promoted the planting of many new crops, so DaZhou’s people no longer have to go hungry.

For example, in the development of education, it took fifty years to make 90% of the young people in DaZhou Dynasty literate.

For example, revising the law laid the foundation for modern law.

The two even established a new political system before their death, allowing the DaZhou Dynasty to transition smoothly from a feudal monarchy to a modern political power.

Therefore, the two have undoubtedly become the two greatest people in the history of DaZhou Dynasty.

“The two are really like time-travelers!”

“They are super avant-garde in their thinking! They also know a lot of things!”

“He actually uses hot weapons to fit with other peoples’ cold weapons. Sun Chongshao is quite miserable.”

“The most enviable thing is their relationship. They have been inseparable for so many years. They even live and die in the same quilt.”

“I heard that Lu Yanzhou was still in good health, but when Wang Ze just passed away, he talked to someone and explained some things, and then he stopped breathing.”

Students at Lu Yanzhou University talked about everything that happened back then.

These are things that everyone knows, and even what Lu Yanzhou said before his death is recorded in detail.

After all, when Lu Yanzhou and Xie Chengze were in their later years, DaZhou was already developing well. At that time, Lu Yanzhou’s students had even developed steam engines.

However, many things in Lu Yanzhou and Xie Chengze’s early years, as well as when they first ascend the throne, are confusing.

In fact, the origin of the two people is clearly written in “Wang Ze’s Biography’, but various unofficial histories say that this is not the case.

One of the most widely circulated theories is that Wang Ze is actually Xie Chengze, the murderous eunuch in the late DaYan Dynasty, and Lu Yanzhou was once Xie Chengze’s male pet.

Isn’t this nonsense!

Most people don’t believe it: “It was written by those wealthy families in DaYan who were unwilling to let their interests suffer so they wrote to slander the two of them!”

“Lu Yanzhou painted many portraits of Wang Ze throughout his life, and in many of them, Wang Ze had a beard. How could he be Xie Chengze!”

“Speaking of Lu Yanzhou’s paintings…He painted really well. Although he didn’t leave many paintings, they are definitely the pinnacle of ink painting!”

“Although Lu Yanzhou once wrote in his articles to thank Xie Chengze, saying that if Xie Chengze hadn’t cleaned up DaYan, he would never have gone so smoothly, but Wang Ze and Xie Chengze couldn’t be the same person, right?”

“Yes, it is said that Xie Chengze looks vicious but Wang Ze is recognized as a handsome man!”

“Wang Ze won’t kill people just because they are ugly!”

“I heard that the month when Xie Chengze came to power, the palace was soaked with blood!”

“I have studied DaYan’s culture. At the beginning of the founding of the DaZhou Dynasty, the culture of Dayan was still dominant then. If Wang Ze really was Xie Chengze, Lu Yanzhou would never be able to be with him under all those pressure at that time!”

Of course, there are a few people who believe that too. After all, there’s not a single bad comment about Xe Chengze in various articles Lu Yanzhou left.

Besides…many of the surviving ministers from DaYan Dynasty who served as officials in DaZhou Dynasty left some articles saying that Wang Ze was Xie Chengze.

And…if Wang Ze is really Xie Chengze, then it’s also quite touching?

Everyone was talking and laughing when someone suddenly said: “Fuck! The country wants to release many manuscripts left by Lu Yanzhou and Xie Chengze. I heard that it have never been released before!”

“What what?”

“The news has just been released. No one knows exactly what it is.”

“A historian I follow has gone crazy and has been posting ‘shocked’ expressions all over the Internet.”

“Who is it?”

“It’s Wang San!”

“Wang San? He has been studying Lu Yanzhou and Wang Ze, saying that he knows them both very well…What happened to him?”

“He seemed to have seen the information first, and then found that the content of the information was beyond his imagination.”

“As for what it is?”

People were talking about it, so they all took out their mobile phones and started to pay attention to the news on the Internet.

Only then did they realize that Lu Yanzhou and Xie Chengze left a lot of things behind and were placed in a special secret room.

It is said that Lu Yanzhou and Xie Chengze said before their death that the secret room would not be opened until at least two hundred years later. As a result, due to various accidents, something happened to the few people who knew the existence of the secret room.

Not long ago, the country only learned of the existence of this secret room and opened it. They were also preparing to make the contents of the secret room public and conduct a historical reveal at the 500th anniversary of Lu Yanzhou and Wang Ze’s death.

Well, this is Lu Yanzhou’s request.

“What the hell is it!”

“I’m so curious!”

“I heard there will be a live broadcast? I’m really looking forward to it!”

There’s indeed a live boardcast. When the time came, the official account of the country started the live broadcast.

People rushed in instantly, and then they saw that the person appearing in the live broadcast footage was Wang San, the historian who had been posting ‘shocked’ expressions online.

Of course, Wang San is just a nickname. When he was young, he was a playboy and loved to play and make trouble. In addition, he was the third child in the family, so he was called third young master Wang.

As a result, third young master Wang stopped going to bars and started studying history. As he was getting older and his nephews and nieces were adults…He changed his online name to Wang San.

The Wang family where Wang San came from is the same Wang family where Wang Ze was born in.

In fact, there is no conclusion on whether Wang Ze is a member of the Wang family, but most people still believe that Wang Ze was born in the Wang family from ‘Wang Ze’s biography’.

“Hello everyone, I am Wang San. Many people should know me, and this time, I will live broadcast for everyone.”

“I was a little excited before and posted a lot of emoticons online. I hope everyone can forgive me for this. After coming here some time ago, I have not been allowed to access the Internet. The ban was lifted an hour ago, so I urgently need to express my feelings.”

“Okay, let’s get down to business and start this live broadcast, which can be regarded as exposing Lu Yanzhou and Wang Ze’s true identities to everyone!”

“I believe that everything you see today will definitely refresh your three views!”

The camera followed Wang San into a brightly lit room, then Wang San continued: “Everyone, the secret room we found is a bit small and crowded, so all the things were taken out and our live broadcast will be held here.”

After he finished speaking, he came to the two portraits: “First of all, what everyone is curious about should be Lu Yanzhou and Wang Ze’s appearance…Don’t worry, the portraits of the two that have been circulating on the market are real. They are both very handsome, from when they were young to when they were old.”

There are more than two portraits, and they were only Lu Yanzhou and Wang Ze. As Wang San said, the people above are very handsome.

Well, they’ve seen it before!

Wang San continued at this moment: “What I want to show you next are the many manuscripts left by these two people. Regarding these manuscripts, Lu Yanzhou left letters, saying that he hoped to make them public…Soon they will be published online with electronic versions for everyone to read for free. Now, I will summarize it and tell you about it.”

Everyone was urging Wang San to speak quickly, so Wang San did not waste any time and said: “First of all, let’s talk about Wang Ze’s origin. Wang Ze is indeed a member of the Wang family.”

Netizens: “So ‘Wang Ze’s biography ‘ is true?”

“Why are you so shocked by this?”

“What’s going on?”

Wang San said: “However, the truth is completely different from ‘Wang Ze’s Biogrpahy’…Wang Ze was actually abandoned by the Wang family.”

Netizens couldn’t believe it.

Wang San continued: “You don’t believe it, do you? I don’t believe it either, but this is a fact. When Wang Ze was born, his body was different, he lacked male organs. The Wang patriarch at the time, Wang Tingyun’s father, felt that it was embarrassing for the Wang family to give birth to such a child. His parents didn’t want such a child either, so they asked Wang Tingyun to get rid of him. Wang Tingyun was supposed to kill him, but he couldn’t bear to do it. In the end, he used some tricks, then handed him over to a family named Xie to raise.”

Netizens were dumbfounded: “Xie? It’s not what I thought, is it?”

Wang San took a deep breath: “At that time, Wang Ze was named Xie Chengze. He was smart since he was a child. Wang Tingyun cared about blood and family ties, so he also found a teacher to teach him how to read and write.”

Netizens were already shocked: “Shocked my whole family!”

“Wang Ze is Xie Chengze?”

“Unofficial history is actually true?”

Wang San continued slowly telling Xie Chengze’s experience. It is said that his adoptive parents and younger brother were killed by the emperor, then he endured the humiliation and entered the palace: “Xie Chengze’s experience after entering the palace was recorded in detail in his autobiography. He was a ruthless man, and everything he has done, good or bad, has been written down in great detail.”

“Then let’s have a talk about how Xie Chengze and Lu Yanzhou got to know each other, and Lu Yanzhou origin. Lu Yanzhou’s mother is a daughter of a wealthy family but his father is just a yamen servant with a very low status at that time…”

Wang San briefly introduced Lu Yanzhou’s origins, and then said: “That year, Xie Chengze was out dealing with something and met Lu Yanzhou by chance. He take a fancy to Lu Yanzhou, so he…tied him up and take him away immediately.”

Netizens sent question marks one after another.

What did they hear? Xie Chengze tied up Lu Yanzhou and took him away?

One must know that Lu Yanzhou is recognized as having great strength. Although he has been engaged in research in the later period, he encountered many assassinations during this period. He often killed groups of assassins by himself!

Such a person was snatched away by Xie Chengze?

“Of course Xie Chengze was able to succeed because Lu Yanzhou didn’t resist either. In short, Xie Chengze liked Lu Yanzhou’s appearance very much, so he raised Lu Yanzhou at home. Lu Yanzhou also cooked for him every day and figured out how to extract oil, improved porcelain, and helped Xie Chengze consolidate his position.”

Netizens: “Didn’t you say these were created by Wang Ze?”

Wang San then mentioned this matter: “I was wondering before, why did Wang Ze research so many things in his early years but he was unknown in the later period. After reading this autobiography, I realized that Lu Yanzhou was the only one who did the research from beginning to end. If there’s someone who really traveled through time, it was only Lu Yanzhou. However, he gave so much credit to Xie Chengze just so that Xie Chengze will be respected.”

“Lu Yanzhou and Xie Chengze have been together for a long time, and their relationship has become deeper and deeper. Lu Yanzhou realized that with Xie Chengze’s status at that time, he would not end well in the future. Thus, he gritted his teeth and decided to rebel.”

“This reason for rebelling is really the first in history!”

Netizens also think so…

Wang San said: “While Lu Yanzhou was developing his power outside, he was also writing letters to Xie Chengze. The correspondence between the two has been preserved. You can read it after watching the live broadcast. Later, when Lu Yanzhou learned that Xie Chengze had killed all Yan imperial family, he hurried to the capital to rescued Xie Chengze… ”

This is simply immortal love!

Wang San continued: “I saw the barrage, you’re all saying it’s immortal love, this is true but in Xie Chengze’s autobiography, there is a page in which he wrote some things that Lu Yanzhou didn’t know…At that time, Xie Chengze was actually not very confident and felt that even though Lu Yanzhou still wrote to him after many years of separation, he might not remember the eternal oath between the two of them. He was even prepared for Lu Yanzhou to kill him, but even so, he still cleaned up the capital and planned to give it to Lu Yanzhou cleanly.”

Wang San read the contents of the piece of paper.

Netizens: “I cried.”

“Xie Chengze really loved Lu Yanzhou.”

“He originally had such thoughts at that time, no wonder he acted so crazy!”

“Of course, even so, all those that Xie Chengze killed were those who deserves to be killed. He never took the initiative to attack innocent people because he didn’t want Lu Yanzhou to think that he was a bad person.”

“Wuuu…”

Wang San added, “Xie Chengze has deep feelings for Lu Yanzhou, and Lu Yanzhou also didn’t disappoint Xie Chengze. After he came to the capital, the first thing he did was to find Xie Chengze. You also know what happened after that. He made Xie Chengze king and empress. Lu Yanzhou actually has no ambitions, so much so that he handed it all to Xie Chengze. At that time, Xie Chengze’s identity was too sensitive, and the world was still unstable, so he changed his name and became Wang Ze.”

Netizens are saying ‘immortal love’ again.

Wang San continued: “Various electronic versions, as well as picture versions, have been uploaded for everyone to look at…In addition, the history books may have to be rewritten. Xie Chengze was Wang Ze, and many officials at the time also knew that. It’s just that it was the end of DaYan then and DaYan officials wrote articles all day long to criticize and hack Xie Chengze before, so much so that when they later told people that Xie Chengze was actually Wang Ze, no one else believed them at all!”

Netizens wanted to laugh: “Sympathy for those ministers from the former Dynasty in the early years of DaYan Zhou Dynasty!”

“Do you remember? Back then, there were people who said that their father did not forget to smear Wang Ze before he died. His father still insisted on saying that Wang Ze was Xie Chengze before he died…”

“Suddenly I feel that those people are a little pitiful…”

“There is another thing, that is, Xie Chengze, or Wang Ze’s beard. Wang Ze was born with a physical problem, so he entered the palace directly without undergoing castration, thus his genitals may have been growing in his body. Therefore his appearance is no different from ordinary man, so he can grow a beard…”

This live broadcast lasted for a long time.

After the live broadcast ended, everyone went to read the information together.

“What a big history reveal. Is this actually trying to stuff us with dog food?”

“Lu Yanzhou is so good! The love letters he wrote to Xie Chengze in those years were really good!”

“I didn’t expect Xie Jia to write such a letter. He also helped to protect Lu Yanzhou from romantic opportunities, hahaha! You know, in those textbooks, he has always been an old grandfather with great military merits…”

“Xie Jia doesn’t like to write, but his daughter wrote some things about him in his later years. In his later years, he revealed that Lu Yanzhou asked him to help write letters to Xie Chengze to express his loyalty. Is it these letters?”

“I envied their relationship before, but now I am even more envious!”

“After knowing that Wang Ze is actually Xie Chengze, I like their relationship even more!”

“Xie Chengze is really awesome, he actually took Lu Yanzhou home! He also single-handedly defeated DaYan! According to what he wrote, those former ministers were really afraid of him.”

“He also asked them to write articles praising him, hahahaha!”

“No wonder the relationship between Wang Ze and the Wang family has never been very good, so that’s what happened!”

Then, someone suddenly said at this moment: “Uh…are there any students among you? I am a college student and my thesis is about them, now I have to rewrite it…”

“The teaching materials also need to be changed…”

“The price of watching immortal love is not small, wuwuwuwu!”

T/N: Lu Yanzhou really likes to make people study, even the future generations weren’t let off.
