Li Zhi raised his head reluctantly, pursed his lips and said nothing.
"What you have to do now is lay the foundation."
Su Chen continued: "Understand everything the teachers teach you. Don't aim too high when it comes to learning. When it comes to laying the foundation, I am not as professional as your teachers."
"So, let's discuss the matter of apprenticeship later."
After saying that, Su Chen stopped looking at Li Zhi and said to His Majesty Li Er: "It's getting late, so I'll go back first. When the exact news comes from Li Chunfeng, remember to send someone to inform me."
"The Taoist Master's standards are very high. I believe the time he gave will not be wrong. Let's set the time for the ceremony one hour before it rains. Just prepare according to this time."
His Majesty Li Er nodded and said, "Okay."
Su Chen wiped the corners of his mouth and stood up to leave. Princess Changle also stood up and said, "I'll see Brother Su Chen off."
Afterwards, the two of them walked out side by side.
Holding Princess Changle's soft and boneless hand, Su Chen was in a very good mood.
The two of them came to the gate of Tai Chi Palace while chatting and laughing.
Before Su Chen got on the carriage, Princess Changle suddenly whispered: "Brother Su Chen, are you planning to trick Dad again?"
Hearing this, Su Chen was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "How did you know?"
Princess Changle said with a blush on her pretty face: "I, I saw my brother's expression just now and felt it was very familiar..."
"Ha ha."
Su Chen smiled and pinched her fair cheeks.
"Brother Su Chen, what are you going to do this time?"
Princess Changle narrowed her eyes slightly, raised her head and said softly: "But it has something to do with the thunder and lightning?"
Although Su Chen already knew that Princess Changle was very smart, she was still shocked when she heard this. Her guess was absolutely correct.
Without hiding anything from Princess Changle, Su Chen nodded and said, "Yes, your father doesn't know what he is going to face yet."
Speaking of this, Su Chen looked around, leaned into her ear and whispered: "I plan to... drag your father to accept the baptism of thunder and lightning."
"ah?"
Princess Changle's rosy little mouth opened slightly, revealing a cute expression.
"Accept...the baptism of thunder and lightning?"
Princess Changle asked worriedly: "Brother, do you mean that we will really be struck by lightning that day?"
"This, what should I do?"
"It's too dangerous."
Speaking of this, she grabbed Su Chen's big hand tightly and said, "Brother Su Chen, how about we change the date?"
"no need to worry."
Su Chen smiled and said, "I'm fully prepared. I took the initiative to cause the thunder and lightning. It can't hurt me or your father. How can I do something risky?"
Princess Changle nodded slightly, feeling much relieved.
"But I didn't tell your father about this." Su Chen chuckled and continued, "I guess he will be very frightened by then."
Princess Changle briefly thought about the possible scenes that day. She suddenly pursed her lips and smiled.
If dad really didn't know... he would have been in a very embarrassed state that day. "Don't tell him, remember?" Su Chen pinched her cheek again and said. "I understand." Princess Changle whispered softly.
road.
Su Chen nodded, and the carriage arrived just at this time. He waved and jumped on the carriage, quietly leaving Tai Chi Palace.
Princess Changle stood there, waiting for the shadow of the carriage to disappear at the corner of the street, then turned around and returned to the palace with some reluctance.
She thought Su Chen's arrangement was purely for fun, a prank prepared for her father.
But in fact, what she didn't know was that Su Chen had a deep meaning in doing this.
On the carriage.
Su Chen gently tapped the wall of the carriage with his right hand and fell into deep thought.
As the territory of the Tang Dynasty expands, some ambitious people may have bad ideas. If the border is unstable and the Tang Dynasty is dragged into the war, a lot of time will be wasted.
This is what he doesn't want to see.
Therefore, this canonization ceremony is a very good opportunity to help Li Er establish his dignity while establishing his own authority.
In this way, a lot of troubles can be solved. By keeping everyone in awe and in awe, the chance of rebellion can be greatly reduced.
Su Chen had no doubts about the effectiveness of this ceremony.
The ancients always believed in these mythical things.
Speaking of which, Li Er took a big advantage.
If you do this, who will dare to rebel in the future?
Time passed quickly, and it was two days later in the blink of an eye.
That night.
Su Chen was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly woken up by the old housekeeper.
After getting up sleepily, Su Chen yawned and asked, "What time is it now?"
"It's almost the fifth watch," the old housekeeper replied.
I glanced outside and saw that the sky had indeed begun to light up.
"But there is news from the palace?" Su Chen continued to ask.
"Yes."
The old housekeeper handed over a secret letter and said, "Master, please read it."
When Su Chen took it and took a look, he immediately lost all sleepiness.
Sure enough, there is news from Li Chunfeng.
Near dawn, he finally accurately predicted the time when it would rain.
"It's three o'clock."
Su Chen said to himself excitedly: "This time is good, just right."
Si hour is between Chen hour and noon hour. If converted to later generations, it would be around 11 o'clock in the morning. This time perfectly meets Su Chen's needs.
According to tradition, the canonization ceremony usually starts around nine o'clock in the morning and ends around eleven o'clock.
Since the time is right, it won't seem abrupt.
Perfect!
"Get some soup cakes to eat."
Su Chen stood up and said, "I'm going to clean up. I'll go to Chang'an after eating."
After saying that, he walked into the bedroom and started changing clothes.
This set of clothes to be worn during the canonization ceremony was sent from the palace yesterday. It was still the same as before, made by Princess Changle herself, but the style was very different from the regular clothes.
The style of this set of clothes is very complicated, and the patterns and pendants are also very gorgeous.
After Su Chen put it on, he gained a sense of domineering power.
He looked in the mirror and nodded with great satisfaction. It was his daughter-in-law who was so clever.
After washing up, I had a simple breakfast.
Su Chen stepped onto the carriage that had been prepared and headed towards Chang'an City.
In the past two days, Su Chen had been staying in Sujiazhuang and was busy presiding over the autumn harvest, so he didn't know that Chang'an City had been in chaos because of his affairs.
His Majesty Li Er only informed the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty about the canonization ceremony, but did not deliberately inform the people.
But I don't know where the news leaked out. In just one day, this matter became a big deal in Chang'an City.
