Chapter 692 Take the emperor on a parade
Yang Yuhuan was worshipped and gained the power of faith, and I benefited a lot as her main soul. The power of faith allowed me to grow in cultivation when I was lying down and sleeping, which made Su Tong envious.
"I'm going to do something earth-shattering so that the people will believe in me." Su Tong said.
What can be earth-shattering? Su Tong thought and thought. One person is short and two people are long, Qing Tong pulled Nuan Ling'er to give Su Tong an idea and said: Let's go to the beach to have a look, the fishermen over there are very in awe of the sea, let's do something convincing to them, let them know that we are more powerful than the sea, and we will definitely be able to gain their trust.
"That's a good idea, I'm about to grow maggots in the capital, let's go to the beach." Saying that, Su Tong was about to leave, but I pulled him back.
"Bring Yang Yuhuan and Li Longji with you." I said.
Su Tong questioned very disapprovingly: "How to bring it?" Could it be that you walked up to them and said to them: I am the Nine Heavens Xuan Immortal, and I will take you to visit the great rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty? Tang Taizong doesn't have to manage the government?"
"Anyway, the Tang Dynasty hasn't been prosperous for a few years, so it's not bad to take Li Longji to enjoy it in time." Qing Tong and Su Tong sang in opposite tunes.
I thought for a while and said: "Let the prince supervise the country, the newly promoted prince is not young, and he must give people a chance to perform."
So angry that Su Tong stomped his feet and said, "Mom, why do you have to take Li Longji with you?" We walked a few minutes on our own, and we didn't know when we were going with him. ”
"I want him to see how corrupt his country has become." I said with a little sadness.
For hundreds of years after the Tang Dynasty, people blamed Yang Guifei for the corruption of the Tang Dynasty, but they never considered that Yang Guifei really had such a great ability to bring disaster to the country and the people?
I want Li Longji to see what the officials who are now reused by the imperial court are doing, and I don't want the Anshi Rebellion to happen again.
With the auspicious clouds of the Xiao family's garden, Tang Xuanzong was convinced that he was protected by the gods, and under the influence of this belief, it would be much easier for me to ask him to take Yang Yuhuan to follow me to visit the great rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty.
At this time, the candidate for the crown prince has been announced, and Li Xiang, who has always been low-key and not favored by everyone, was selected.
As for why Li Longji chose Li Xiang as the crown prince instead of Li Mao, the king of Shou who everyone is unanimously optimistic about, the reason is very simple, because the loyal king Li Heng is low-key, and he has not formed a personal political force in the palace and foreign dynasties, and it is obviously easier to control than Li Mao, the king of Shou.
Choosing to be the crown prince Li Mao, who is always thinking about his concubine, or choosing Li Xiang, who is easy to control, after careful consideration and consideration, under the advice of Gao Lishi to promote the growth and who dares to fight again, Li Longji finally decided to establish Li Hengli as the crown prince.
Let the prince supervise the country and go out to play by himself, Li Longji still has some concerns.
"The crown prince has no experience, will he disturb the court if he is in charge of the country?"
"Don't be afraid, let Li Linfu and Niu Xianke assist him, if you are still not at ease, you can also leave Gaolishi to assist him." I thought for a moment and said.
After hesitating for a long time, Li Longji said: "Immortal, in fact, what I am most afraid of is that after I come back, I will be respected by him as the emperor."
I still know a little bit about the history of the Tang Dynasty, and I know that Tang Xuanzong was hollowed out by his son after the Anshi Rebellion. Then he said: "It's okay, I'll help you keep an eye on the imperial city, and I will be able to notify you in time if there is a problem."
In Tang Xuanzong's sleep, I discussed the parade with him, and agreed that I would wait for him near the Xuanwu Gate with three children the next afternoon.
After Tang Xuanzong woke up from his sleep early the next morning, he doubted the agreement in the dream, and sat on the edge of the bed and thought twice. Seeing this, Yang Yuhuan knew that he was wondering if the agreement with me was just a dream.
Yang Yuhuan said in surprise: "Your Majesty, I had a dream last night, and I dreamed that the gods invited me to go with you to enjoy the mountains and rivers."
"You also had such dreams?" Tang Xuanzong asked in astonishment.
"Yes, the fairy also said that she saved us in Taiwu City------。" Yang Yuhuan said.
"That's what she told me." Tang Xuanzong nodded, believing that he was really invited by the immortals.
"Shall we go then?" Yang Yuhuan handed the choice to Tang Xuanzong.
"Go, where is the reason not to go when the gods invite each other." It can be seen that Tang Xuanzong and Li Longji have given me great trust.
After a rough handover of the work of the imperial court that day, Li Longji waited at the gate of Xuanwu Gate with Yang Yuhuan, who was disguised and disguised.
When I took Su Tong, Qingtong and Nuan Ling'er over, they had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing the four of us, Li Longji, who likes beautiful women, looked straight.
So angry that Su Tong coughed vigorously before calling Li Longji's soul back.
"It's rude-----" Li Longji said curtly.
I nodded slightly at Li Longji and said lightly, "Let's go."
Yang Yuhuan squeezed his eyes at me and smiled a little meaningfully.
Traveling with Tang Xuanzong Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan was indeed very inconvenient as Su Tong said, and it took us nearly half a month to come to the beach.
Looking at the rough sea, Tang Xuanzong asked, "Where are we going?"
"Find a place where there are many people, and the immortals should do it, and purify the people." Su Tongxuan said.
Tang Xuanzong Li Longji was convinced of Su Tong's words, and said: "Little fairy, there is no one here, let's go find a dock to settle down."
A small pier is docked with a lot of luxuriously decorated boats. I casually found an old man who looked more honest and asked, "This guest officer, where are so many of you going to go?"
The old man asked, "Is it the first time the guest officer has entered this place?"
"Yes." I nodded.
"No wonder you don't know our customs here, we are here by the sea, everyone eats by the sea, and every year at this time of year there is a sea festival."
"Sea festival?" I followed along.
The old man replied, "Yes, it is the worship of the sea god; There is a small island about thirty nautical miles from the shore, there is a Tanah Lot temple on it, the sea god in the temple is very effective, every year we have to go over to donate money and materials, prepare two pairs of boys and girls as a sacrifice to send to the Tanah Lot temple to worship, ask it to bless us with a year of good weather and smooth sailing. ”
"Does it work?" Su Tong asked.
The old man said: "It is very effective, as long as the people who have worshiped the sea god go to sea will return safely and well, and those who have not worshiped look at the weather calmly, but as long as they go to sea, the wind and clouds will change abruptly, and the ship will sink and the lives of people will not be guaranteed, without exception."
"It's so effective, can we follow along and have a look?" I asked, pretending to be very curious.
The old man looked us up and down and said, "Yes, you can, but you didn't bring sacrifices, I'm afraid you will upset the sea god if you go, so it's better not to go."
I rolled my eyes, pointed to Qingtong and Nuan Ling'er, and said, "Who said that I didn't bring a sacrifice, can't this pair of boys and girls be offered as sacrifices?"
"Mommy ------"
Qingtong and Nuan Ling'er didn't understand what I meant at first, and called me in horror.
was grabbed by Su Tong, and after whispering a few words in the ears of the two of them, they pretended to be very obedient and said, "Mom, we are willing to serve the sea god as a sacrifice."
"Good -----" I smiled and winked at Qing Tong...
