Zhao Ji laughed, stroking his palms and said, "What a good name, what a great title! Since he was recommended as a national teacher, he must have something special about him."
Lin Lingsu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you don't know something. Although you are a serious young Taoist, you are proficient in the Five Elements Alchemy. Previously, the poor Taoist planned the garden Genyue for your Majesty. If ordinary people started to build it, it would take at least seven or eight years to build it.
Okay. But if you have the help of serious Taoist friends, it only takes three days to build the largest royal garden in Bianliang City."
"Is this true?"
Zhao Ji stood up excitedly. He just thought it was interesting, but now he really takes it seriously.
Li Yu bowed slightly and said with a smile: "In front of the sage, no one dares to speak nonsense."
Baimao laughed at him before, saying that he could do civil engineering because of his talents, and now it really came true.
Li Yu was full of confidence. As long as he had Lin Lingsu's help, he could control the power of earth spirits, water spirits, and wood spirits, and it would be no problem to garden.
Zhao Ji rubbed his hands and said, "In that case, let's start now!"
"Now?" Li Yu and Lin Lingsu were both shocked. This emperor was too unconventional and did whatever he wanted.
There was a questioning look in Lin Lingsu's eyes. Li Yu lowered his eyelids and nodded.
Lin Lingsu immediately said: "In three days, we respectfully invite your Majesty to come!"
Zhao Ji waved his hands and said with a smile: "No, no, how can I miss this scene of the Immortal family's Taoism and magic. Come on, come and drive to the western suburbs. I want to see Genyue built with my own eyes."
A group of palace people acted in an orderly manner. The emperor often had a whim, and they had long been accustomed to taking charge at any time.
Li Yu breathed a long sigh of relief, and Lin Lingsu whispered: "No need to be nervous, just do your best."
Li Yu nodded slightly and followed him to the western suburbs.
A brocade curtain was covered in front of the imperial court. Zhao Ji was sitting on a high place, overlooking the large area of enclosed land in the western suburbs below.
The Imperial Preceptor recommended a Taoist priest to build the largest garden in Bianliang for His Majesty within three days. The news spread, and Bianliang was disturbed by this grand event.
If you could see this kind of strange thing with your own eyes, wouldn't it be something you could brag about for a lifetime?
After hearing the news, more and more people came. Zhao Ji looked at the huge crowd. Not only was he not angry, but he was in a good mood.
He was born to like excitement and big scenes. If this grand event really happened, it would be too honorable for him as the emperor.
The last time Lin Lingsu showed his magical power, he created a Yuanmiao Mountain out of thin air. Although it spread throughout the Six Dynasties, few people saw it, which always made Zhao Ji feel a little regretful. This time, one Genyue in three days can just make up for it.
This regret in my heart.
So when the imperial army was preparing to drive away the people, Zhao Ji gave an order to allow the people to come and watch.
There were military officers and generals who proclaimed the Holy Spirit's decrees everywhere to prevent the imperial army from driving away the people, and also ordered their subordinates to maintain order.
There was a wave of cheers for a while, and the people shouted long live the emperor's honor guard.
The sound was overwhelming, making people's ears ring, and Zhao Ji became even happier.
He pointed to the eunuchs around him and said: "Bring the queen here, the princes, the emperors and the concubines, too, to join us in this grand event."
When the imperial order spread, thousands of people in Bianliang City rushed to watch. Nanya quickly sent out most of the officials to maintain order. When there are many people, it is inevitable that there will be some petty thefts, and there are also idlers who squeeze in the crowd.
, he uses his hands up and down to take advantage of women.
Fortunately, this is the outskirts of the country and is open and spacious, so there was no stampede.
Li Yu looked at the crowd of people, twitched the corner of his mouth and asked, "Palace Master, what does this mean?"
Lin Lingsu smiled dryly and said: "Your Majesty, you just like to show off."
Li Yu's favorite thing is to be low-key, to hide in the dark and watch others, and to remain invisible. Even the kind of low-key person who doesn't show up after killing people, crushing their bones and scattering ashes, is now exposed.
Being in front of tens of thousands of people made him feel uncomfortable all over.
He even gave up on himself to the point where he wanted to clasp his fists, spin around in a circle, and shout, "Everyone, watch me perform a mountain-building exercise in three days."
Lin Lingsu was behind him and said: "This is no longer the time to hide your clumsiness. Just do whatever you want. All the disciples of Shenxiao Palace will support you in secret."
Li Yu said in a low voice: "Call all the people with advanced Taoism practices in the surrounding Taoist temples. Let's go ahead and work for the Taoist sect. They are hiding in the mountains to practice. How can such a good thing happen?"
Lin Lingsu laughed, not knowing whether he agreed or disagreed. He walked up to Li Yu and bowed slightly towards where the emperor was.
Zhao Ji was overjoyed, looked around and said: "It's started. Go and notify all the officials. Come and tell Qing Honglu to let him bring Wei, Shu, Wu, Tang, Ming, Privet, Khitan, Dangxiang, Korea, and Japan."
Call all the envoys in Bianliang."
Several chamberlains took the order and left. Some officials had already heard the news and came over on their own and gathered around the emperor, flattering him constantly.
Li Yu looked at the open space in front of him, picked up the drawings beside him, and sat down on an apricot futon.
In the drawing, the appearance of the garden was imprinted in his mind. He slowly closed his eyes and felt the power of the five spirits around him.
Suddenly, the ground moved on its own, and the crowd burst into cheers.
The soil flows on its own in the air, and the water of the Bianhe River trickles in like a dragon sucking it.
This magical scene left everyone present stunned, and the cheers became smaller.
Zhao Ji stood up excitedly and watched this scene excitedly.
Li Yu, the initiator of everything, secretly laughed at himself: Old man Zhang, seniors of Taiping Dao, please don't be angry when you see me using the power of the Five Elements like this. I can't help myself.
The soil forms walls on its own, water flows in automatically, and flames bake and strengthen it. Everything seems to be moving on its own. This wonderful scene between heaven and earth is like the God of Creation using miraculous craftsmanship to build the garden.
Some old people couldn't help but kneel down and worship, while Zhao Ji danced excitedly and high-fived with the ministers in praise.
Li Yu calculated the time and sighed secretly. It was impossible to complete the project at this speed.
He had no choice but to speed up the operation, and now it became a bit laborious, and he would be exhausted within a day.
I hope the helpers Lin Lingsu mentioned will be available in time.
Li Yu could only comfort himself in this way now.
At this time, in the Daxiangguo Temple not far away, a monk was watching this scene intently, with no expression on his face.
He turned the rosary beads on his chest with one hand and muttered something in his mouth. He was surrounded by eminent monks from Daxiangguo Temple.
These eminent monks, who were usually of high status, did not dare to make any sound in front of the monk in the middle.
"Where are the people who went to kill him?"
Zhizhen, the abbot of Daxiangguo Temple, paid his respects: "I haven't returned yet, so I guess something unexpected has happened to me."
"It will be difficult to kill him after three days. This person must die within these three days!"
