Chapter 2788 The name of the fairy basket is good, it sounds better than the cactus ball
The hot air balloon had stopped on the ground. At this moment, Li Shimin and a group of important civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty were all marveling at this novel treasure that could allow people to ascend to heaven.
Li Ke had regained his composure and was happily introducing the benefits of this kind of treasure to his father.
Standing on it and admiring the great rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty, the feeling of pleasure is definitely more refreshing than climbing on the roof of Zhenguan Palace.
Well, of course it's just a description. Li Ke has definitely never climbed it. After all, he is not a naughty kid. However, it is unknown whether Li Xiang has climbed it.
As for the five living creatures that ascended to heaven for the first time in history, they had already been taken away by bullock carts.
When it is time to red-roast it, when it is time to steam it, continue to contribute their residual heat to feed the appetites of the students at Cheng University.
At this moment, Cheng Sanlang was extremely annoyed by his disciples.
Li Xiang held on to his teacher's big hand and looked at Cheng Sanlang with bright eyes.
"Teacher, please let me sit down for a while."
Cheng Chubisha had a headache. At this moment, almost all the famous civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty were crowded here.
How could he dare to let the second-in-line heir of the Tang Dynasty ascend to heaven under the gaze of everyone?
"Your Highness, there are so many people here, it's not appropriate for you to go up there, and your father hasn't even said a word, so be careful he takes care of you."
Hearing these words, Li Xiang quickly turned to look at his father, and then said to Cheng Sanlang with great admiration.
"My father didn't say anything, so he must have acquiesced."
Li Chengqian, who was busy talking excitedly about the hot air balloon with Yu Zhining and others, saw his eyes darken.
He almost wanted to use a stick to jump over and perform a performance of fatherly kindness and sonly filial piety. Fortunately, Li Chengqian, who had always been particular about the prince's manners, was worried that it would be too indecent to beat his son in public, so he could only glare at this naughty kid.
At this moment, Li Chengqian heard his father speak.
"Okay, Ke'er, you said so many wonderful things, and my father's heart was very warm after hearing them. Anyway, I will be the second person to board this hot air balloon."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty must never do this. As the saying goes, a body of a thousand pieces of gold cannot sit down in the hall."
"Yes, Your Majesty, how about you let me, Old Cheng, try it for Your Majesty?"
"Get out of the way, Your Majesty, I'll let you do it..."
Instantly, the scene began to become chaotic as these bold and courageous military officials spoke.
Then a clear, childish voice suddenly sounded.
"Grandpa Huang, Sun Chenyuan ascended to heaven for Grandpa Huang."
As soon as these words came out, there was a deathly silence all around. All eyes fell on Li Xiang, looking at this tiger-headed emperor grandson.
"Since ancient times, I have only heard of 'one person attains enlightenment, and chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.' Using the word ascend to heaven, tsk tsk..."
"Wouldn't that compare all those who want to go to heaven to chickens and dogs?"
"That's right, this kid Cheng Sanlang clearly did it on purpose..."
"Shh, please keep your voice down, you offended that guy, do you still want to celebrate the New Year?"
"..." Hearing the whispers coming from around him, Li Shimin's face became darker and darker.
But at the moment, Li Shimin, who was wise, mighty, generous and benevolent, could only pat Li Xiang's little head with a kind face, and looked at Cheng Sanlang with a calm look, but his eyes were a bit cruel.
"I'm talking about Chu Bi's virtuous son-in-law. Can we change the word? Ascension to Heaven always sounds awkward to me."
Seeing his father-in-law's menacing and threatening gaze, Cheng Sanlang, who was lying down with the wind, responded with a polite and courteous response.
"My son-in-law naturally leaves it up to his father-in-law to decide. Whatever you always say is what it is, it is what it is."
Ascension to heaven was something I used to tease Li Ke back then. Now that my father-in-law also wants to ascend to heaven, naturally he can no longer use this word.
You can't really compare emperors with chickens and dogs. As for King Wu Li Ke, haha, who made this kid like to stab me in both sides?
However, whether it was going to heaven or flying, Cheng Chubi felt that it was not much better than ascending to heaven.
You can't think about it another day, right? Since my father-in-law is willing to choose the name, then let him do it.
The hero of the Tang Dynasty, who always liked to name new things, narrowed his eyes and continued to hold the head of his beloved grandson Li Xiang with his big hands.
"Well... in that case, how about changing the name to Dengtian? And this thing is called a hot air balloon, which seems too vulgar, so why not change it too?"
When all the important civil and military ministers heard the adjective "climbing to the sky", they couldn't help but nodded in agreement.
When I heard that Your Majesty wanted to change the name of this good baby, I felt it made sense and nodded in unison again.
It's just that all the important civil and military ministers are a little worried in their hearts. After all, this heroic leader of the Tang Dynasty is both civil and military and has extraordinary talents, but he just comes up with a name, haha...
It's a pity that no one dares to displease the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. After all, the Ming Dynasty is not happy. Although he won't chop off your head, it is not impossible to give you a pair of small shoes to wear.
After seeing His Majesty holding his beloved grandson's head and stroking his long beard for a long time, his eyes lit up.
"Since ancient times, only immortals can soar into the clouds and mist, soaring above the ninth level.
And this thing can actually have this function, carrying ordinary people like us to heaven to reward me with the great rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty."
"In that case, why not call it a cactus?"
"Pfft...cough cough cough..." Cheng Chubi coughed violently in an instant, which made Li Shimin couldn't help but take another look at this kid.
What, doesn't the word "cactus" sound good? Li Shimin was thinking about it, and seemed to realize that there was nothing wrong with the "cactus" in the front, but the word "ball" in the back seemed a bit too round, which always made people feel a bit abrupt.
Fortunately, Cheng Sanlang's cough interrupted everyone's subconscious agreement, and Li Shimin immediately decided to change his name temporarily as the thought flashed across his mind.
"But the word "ball" still seems too vulgar. Besides, this bamboo hanging basket is carrying people, so why not call it a fairy basket? Do you think so?"
Cheng Sanlang, who was almost shocked by the name Cactus and laughed on the spot, was the first to express his opinion.
"My father-in-law is wise. The name Cactus Basket is a good one. It sounds at least a hundred times better than Cactus."
All the important civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It's okay, it's true, as Cheng Sanlang said, after all, it's a basket, which sounds better than a ball.
#####
In the end, with the insistence of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty became the third batch of living creatures to ascend to heaven in history.
Of course, this also includes Cheng Sanlang. Well, this is the honor bestowed by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to Chu Bi's virtuous son-in-law.
I believe that when the time comes, the history books will definitely not dare to rank the big fat pig in the hanging basket as the first place to ascend to heaven.
However, as a rigorous and professional professional gossip recorder, Cheng Chubi will definitely record the true situation in detail in his diary.
Of course, my diary will not be read casually by others. It is a treasure of the old Cheng family who has heirlooms of poems and books.
More than a thousand years later, it will definitely become a national treasure-level material that can be used to compare with historical books and reveal the historical truth for fun.
