The twenty-third section of plain renunciation

The Zen position is a grand ceremony of the country and must not be ignored.

The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty said: "The sky is bright and shining, I am the leader, and my words are followed by the law. The skyscraper towers and the tin staff with nine rings are nothing more than a golden promise from me. Building pavilions and tin staffs is a waste of national money and is of no benefit to the people.

Today's Zen is located in Chengqian, is there any difference?"

Hundreds of officials bowed to the ground, and there was silence. At this moment, only Li Er's voice echoed in the sky and the earth. The wild geese in the sky were singing, the crossbow arrows were piercing the throat, the tigers in the mountains were roaring, and the steel sword was coming...

Mr. Yuan Zhang was neatly dressed, and his black lapel indicated that he was today's official of ceremony. He walked up to the Wanmin Hall step by step. After bowing and kowtowing nine times to Li Ersan in the main hall, Fang Kaiyan said: "Since Yao and Shun,

I have never heard of anyone with a Zen position, and even if there is one, he is afraid of the power of the Revolution. Since Yao and Shun, your Majesty has set a precedent, and I would like to congratulate your Majesty!"

Li Erhaha laughed and said: "To congratulate the Tang Dynasty, I have set a precedent, and I will set it as an eternal example. If future emperors feel that they are not energetic, they should follow my example and enthrone the new emperor, help him on his horse, and give him a ride.

Protect me for thousands of years of the Tang Dynasty!"

Yuan Zhang bowed again and said: "Here!"

Li Chengqian bowed and said: "Here!"

All the officials in front of the Wanmin Palace knelt down and said, "Here!"

The eldest grandson took the concubines, princesses, princesses and all high-ranking ladies in the harem and bowed down together: "Here!"

The ceremony officer presented the three animals, and Li Er took off his heavenly crown, walked slowly to the altar table, put three thick incense sticks on it, worshiped the sky, the earth, and his ancestors, and then walked away with a flourish.

Li Er, who wore a yellow robe, still had a straight back.

As one of the only three remaining princes of the Tang Dynasty, Yuan Zhang came to the altar table and bowed down again. He took the edict from the table which was placed on a sandalwood stand and unfolded it slowly. After reading it carefully, he turned around and knelt down to face the altar.

The prince, as well as the civil and military officials under the red osmanthus, unfolded the edict, coughed lightly and read loudly:

"The five fortunes are renewed and the three righteousnesses are iterated. Si Mu Li Shu is a sage. He uses the energy of the world to make up the world, and he is able to protect the head of Guizhou. He expounds the great righteousness. He changes from the dark to the bright, accumulates generations in the same track, and hundreds of kings follow the same path.

Xian follows this. I am already old and unable to control the situation. The clouds of Taiqing begin. I see a trapped long snake. In the season of becoming a saint, I also suffer from a sealed pig. When the love reaches Tiancheng, the sacred artifacts are stolen again and again. The three lights are in urgent need of destruction. The seven temples have no sacrifices.

, Hansheng has been lost, and the fate of the tripod has fallen. I, Li, Yuan's Zuo, are just like Zhuolu. I am quiet and peaceful, and I am alert in the evening...

Li Er held the eldest grandson's hand and listened for a while. He chuckled and then boarded his imperial carriage, preparing to drive back to Yushan City. Today, this is the world that belongs to the new emperor.

He looked up at the majestic body in front of the carriage and said with a smile: "Yuchi, today is the time when the new emperor ascends the throne. If you don't go to worship, how can you be my driver?"

Yu Chigong turned around and said to Li Er with a smile: "The old minister is old and can no longer serve the new emperor. It would be better to hand over the errand and go to Yushan City with His Majesty to retire.

Your Majesty, I don’t know that all the old ministers Zhenguan mean this, you will know it just by looking around."

Duan Hong opened the curtain with a smile, and Li Er found that the old ministers who had followed him to conquer the world were now surrounding the chariot, with civil servants on the left and military generals on the right.

Yu Wenshiji, who was almost dying of old age, sat swaying on his horse and said with his hands raised: "Despite my old age, I can still ride a war horse and tell a few jokes with His Majesty. Since Your Majesty wants to retire to the countryside, how can you do that?"

Missing the old minister."

Li Er smiled and said: "You'd better get off your horse and take a carriage. I'm worried that you will be killed by a horse before you reach Yushan." After saying that, he pointed to a few old and incompetent ministers behind him and said: "The same goes for you."

Li Jing laughed and said: "There is no need for the ministers and other generals. The road to Yushan is smooth, and we can just gallop on the horse."

Li Er looked at Li Jing, who had white hair and beard, and said angrily: "Save it, if one or two fall and get trampled to death by horses, the gain outweighs the loss." As he spoke, he saw Yun Ye wearing a helmet and shaking armor from the group of generals.

He waved for him to come over, pointed at the group of white-haired veterans around him and said to Yun Ye: "I can agree that they are just idlers in the mountains. What are you doing here at such a young age?"

Yun Ye said with a smile: "You and these uncles have all retired. If the younger generation is not here, what is the meaning of your life? Do you mean drinking and eating meat all day long?

Let’s not talk about mahjong for now. Can you play bridge? Can you play croquet? Can you fight crickets? What is health soup? What is a peerless delicacy? Which of you uncles knows how to make wine?

In fact, Wei Chen's greatest skill is to play. Eating, drinking and having fun is Wei Chen's essence. Therefore, if you elders don't want to live a boring life in the future, you must have Wei Chen.

What's more, the "Memoirs" of the elders still need to be compiled and put into the Yushan Academy Library, especially the "Memoirs" of His Majesty and the Empress, which are extremely precious historical materials. Duke Wei's thoughts on modern war,

It is also the top priority. When the academy compiles the history of the Tang Dynasty in the future, it only needs to confirm the "Memoirs" of uncles, and a vivid history book will appear. These things are more important than the ministers going to the court to serve as officials.

There are too many.”

Seeing his old troops, Li Er was obviously in a very good mood. Seeing that all the old ministers had changed to carriages, he stamped the carriage with his feet. Yuchi Gong shook the reins, and the eight-horse carriage drove slowly.

After leaving the palace, this time Li Er took away everything that belonged to him and left an extremely clean palace to Li Chengqian. He hoped that Li Chengqian could display his talents without any constraints.

From the moment the emperor's car drove out of the palace, the Zhenguan Dynasty came to an abrupt end in the 29th year of Zhenguan. Li Shimin reigned for a full twenty-nine years, eight years longer than the reign in history.

Just when Li Er's carriage drove out of Chang'an City, the bell tower and drum tower rang one hundred and eight times at the same time. The incinerated memorial table in front of the Wanmin Palace turned into blue smoke, sending the news of the change of the world.

Nine days later, on this day, the first year of Taixing begins.

Warriors in bright armor, carrying the new emperor's edict on their backs, sent the news of the Yuan Dynasty to the nine states of China. As a result, countless congratulatory messages swarmed in, and the generals of the Sixteenth Guards also began to enter the palace one by one to swear allegiance to Li Chengqian.

The Zen position turmoil only lasted for three months. The Tang Dynasty had already formed its own inherent operating method, which did not change because of the change of emperors. The world soon calmed down, and people began to use Taixing's first year.

Li Chengqian was very filial to the minted new coins. The era name changed, but the portrait on it remained unchanged. It was still Li Er's silhouette. In other words, no matter who the emperor of the Tang Dynasty was in the future, the silhouette on the coins would only be

It's Li Er.

There is the tallest equestrian statue of Li Er in Chang'an City. Li Chengqian of Yushan City thought that there should also be a statue of his father, so he made a stone mountain on the edge of Yingzui Cliff into Li Er's head.

Li Tai liked his mother better, so the portrait of his eldest grandson appeared next to the portrait of Li Er. Now, whenever you get close to Yushan, you will see two huge heads stuck there.

This trend spread, and this thing appeared in every big city, so the people of the Tang Dynasty knew what Li Er and his wife looked like.

Knowing Li Chengqian's plan, his family's Li ancestors were all buried in tombs. Now it was hard to bury his parents alive, so he offered them up high and put them in the shrine. You have become a god, so you are embarrassed to be with your son.

Are you vying to be the emperor?

It was strange that Li Chengqian established a queen but not a prince. Li Xiang encouraged a group of civil servants to petition and urge the emperor to establish a crown prince. As a result, Li Chengqian became furious and drove Li Xiang back to the Hengshan fiefdom with a written edict, strictly ordering him not to receive any more orders.

Before the edict is issued, you are not allowed to leave Hengshan, otherwise you will be dealt with according to family law.

In the middle of the night in Yushan, Yun Ye carried a lantern and secretly opened the rocks on the hillside to look for things. Xin Yue also carried a lantern. As long as the night owl barked, Xin Yue would move closer to her husband.

"Husband, let's go back. If you want to catch crickets, how about we wait until daybreak to catch them? What should I do if I fall and get hurt at night?" Xin Yue tremblingly held her arms, wanting to leave this place and let her

A land that feels uneasy.

"I told you a long time ago that I won't let you come. Then neither Rimu nor Xiaomiao will be as nagging as you. Uncle Cheng's Blue and White General's wings were bitten off by someone else's powerful demon king, and he has been going crazy these days.

, I wanted His Majesty’s blue lion, but Your Majesty refused to give it to me. I sent an urgent message to my hometown in Shandong, asking my family to bring him some powerful crickets no matter what. It should arrive in the next two days. You don’t know what will happen.

The crickets below are the most powerful ones in Shandong. Some of the crickets that have eaten corpses are the bravest ones, called coffin heads. They are very rare. Our crickets are very embarrassing. I plan to catch some secretly from Uncle Cheng's cricket cage.

Change it over. If you're scared, go back first, and I'll go back after I've planted the straw mark."

Yun Ye once again inserted a piece of dried white wax grass next to a stone and listened for a while. He was very satisfied. There must be a strong cricket inside.

Although Xin Yue was scared, she was unwilling to leave her husband. Although this place was already a military guard zone and no one could come here, it would be very scary if one or two wild beasts came out.

There was something soft under her feet. Xin Yue screamed. She dropped the lantern and hugged Yun Ye tightly, trembling. The lantern was thrown to the ground and caught fire. Yun Ye took a closer look. It turned out that Xin Yue had stepped on a snake.

It was a very fat cauliflower snake. It might have been frightened by the fire. It coiled up in a snake formation and remained motionless. While Yun Ye was hugging Xin Yue, he held down the snake's head with the stick with a fork in his hand.

, a fish basket that fits into the waist. This thing was originally used to hold white wax grass, but now there are snakes to hold it, so you don’t need the white wax grass.

After pretending to be a snake, Yun Ye had the opportunity to look at Xin Yue. This woman was already fainted from fright. No wonder it was so heavy. He hugged his wife and found a big stone, placed her on it, took off her socks, and used a lantern to shine.

Then, sure enough, she was bitten by a snake, with a small, tight circle. Fortunately, it was a non-venomous snake, but it would have been terrible if it had been poisonous. (To be continued...)
