After being welcomed into the city by Li Chengqian, Yu Xiuer and others, Sun Xiangfu knew about the next regulations, and all the arrangements had been made for him.

The Temple of Heaven, which began in mid-August last year and ended in February this year, has been completed for five or six months.

It is nothing more than an open field covered with elaborate tiles, with a circular platform made of concrete in the center, surrounded by a white marble fence, in the middle, a large stone table altar, and a large tripod with an incense burner.

The reason why this great altar is called the Temple of Heaven by Li Shimin is because, in the future, it will only be used when someone is given supreme honor, and the so-called supreme honor is nothing more than canonization, or the emperor's enthronement and the like.

The first to use it was Sun Xiangfu, and the reason why Li Shimin wanted to hold Sun Xiangfu's canonization ceremony first was to make it more convincing when he added the title of 'Supreme Emperor' later.

After all, although Sun Xiangfu has done some beautification by words, nearly half of it is true and has been recognized by the majority of the people.

And his title of 'Supreme Human Emperor' was obtained by him by directing and acting, although his merits are real, but he lacks some public support.

Especially in South Asia, Byzantium and the people in the Great Food Region who were finally incorporated into the Tang Dynasty, their impression of Li Shimin is basically an iron-blooded king, because what they feel more intuitively is the majestic military power and endless wealth of the Tang Dynasty, and now, it is only slightly improved.

And Sun Xiangfu, a saint recognized by the whole people, pushed him to the position of 'human emperor', which is more convincing and perfect.

In the Luoyang Palace, the big guys chattered around Sun Xiangfu for a long time, a small number of people chatted about the past, and most of them explained the things behind to him.

The overall meaning is that February 18 is the day when the canonization ceremony is held in Chang'an, and it is less than ten days away from now, and before that, Sun Xiangfu needs to formulate a suitable costume, familiarize himself with the words of worship in the ceremony, and even ask craftsmen to carve statues for him.

These things have been prepared for him early in the morning, and he only needs to try on the ceremonial costume, familiarize himself with the words of the sacrifice to the heavens, wear the ceremonial costume, and let the carvers take a look.

The problem now is that Sun Xiangfu still has some emotions about the matter of canonization, and he needs someone to do ideological work for them, and after a few perfunctory greetings to everyone, he excused himself to be tired and went to a bedroom in a side hall.

The one who can enter his bedroom is naturally his wife Yu Xiu'er.

"Husband! According to His Majesty's will, after being canonized, you will enjoy the saint ritual system, and all the subjects and people in the world, when they see you, they must perform the teacher salute, go out of the place, you can live in the emperor's palace, enter the court, and enjoy the worship of the ministers······"

Seeing that as soon as Yu Xiu'er entered the house, her mouth was thunderbolting, Sun Xiangfu stretched out his hand to stop her and said, "Xiu'er, these things happen to be not what your husband wants, isn't it really good to live?" Why do you want to fix all this nonsense! ”

When Yu Xiu'er heard this, her face turned straight and said, "My husband doesn't want it, but someone else wants it!" Moreover, we need it! Don't you still understand what Your Majesty means?

He gave you such a high honor, in addition to rewarding you for your merits, he still wanted to set you up as an example for the people of the world, so that the people of the world knew that as long as someone is willing to dedicate his talents to the people of Limin, any kind of honor of the royal family can be rewarded to him. ”

Unreasonable women are not terrible, reasonable women are terrible, Yu Xiuer's words actually made Sun Xiangfu speechless.

After being stunned for a moment, he smiled evilly and said, "So, you are here to make so many welcoming ceremonies and create such a big momentum, all so that I can obediently accept your arrangement?" I'm telling you, you got your way. ”

"You~"

Yu Xiu'er saw that Sun Xiangfu's tone was wrong, and she wanted to continue to reason with him and tell the truth, but suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"Did I succeed? That means that the husband has no opinion on the next arrangement? Yu Xiu'er was already thrown out of the car by Sun Xiangfu's sharp bend, and she was a little confused.

"Your husband and I have never disappointed everyone, I have considered it when Xiaotai told me before, but there are still opinions, in the future, try not to arrange me to attend any public occasions, I am afraid that if I say the wrong thing, it will cause any bad impact.

Don't force me to do things I don't like anymore, don't arrange so many things without consulting me like this time······"

These conditions, where are the conditions, Yu Xiu'er didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and nodded again and again, "Okay, all things will come according to your wishes in the future, as long as you agree to accept the holy reputation, who called you a saint!" ”

Sun Xiangfu pretended not to believe it, "Do you really listen to me?" ”

Yu Xiu'er straightened her chest and said, "Do what you say." ”

"That's great, we haven't seen each other for two or three years, or ······"

"I'm going to die! Prince, they're still waiting outside for news! ”

"Then let them keep waiting!"

"How can this be, husband, you will be a saint in the future, and you will be an example for all people."

"I knew it was so."

"Even if that's the case, you can't go back."

······

In the afternoon, everyone outside the palace got the news, and they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, under Li Chengqian's Zhang Luo, all the pre-designed processes were running quickly, and he also had the opportunity to talk to Sun Xiangfu alone.

"Teacher, Daochang Li has given many examples before to prove that you are a natural saint, for example, your ideas will really come true, what you think may exist, will really exist, and even, for the thing you said that people can go to the moon, Daochang Li is also convinced, Cheng Qian just wants to ask you, how far will our Datang come in the future?"

When Sun Xiangfu heard this, he knew that all this was done by Li Chunfeng, in order to understand that his calculation and divination skills were not wrong, so he was very faceless, "If you believe in these mysterious things, then the future of our Datang will not be too far." If you do what is good for the people in a down-to-earth manner, restrain your desires, and do not do things that are bad for the people, and use this to demand your next generation, then it may be passed down for thousands of years. ”

Seeing that Sun Xiangfu had answered matter-of-factly, Li Chengqian asked eagerly, "What about a thousand years later?" ”

Sun Xiangfu pretended to sigh and said, "Who can say exactly what will happen after a thousand years?"

Perhaps, at that time, human beings no longer needed emperors.

Perhaps, at that time, the emperor had become a symbol.

When the world's population and industry have become so complex that they can't take care of it with one person's energy, and they need a huge adjudication team to manage all aspects, it is normal for the imperial power to fall aside. ”

The world is big, the population is large, and how difficult it is to govern, only those who really govern can understand.

A few years ago, Sun Xiangfu proposed that Li Shimin set up thirty or fifty Pingzhang affairs to help the prime minister deal with government affairs, this idea, at the time, can be said to be a little crazy, but only a few years later, thirty or fifty Pingzhang matters may not be enough.

After the Tang Dynasty officially unified the world, there were more than 200 million people, and every ordinary chapter in the political hall had to manage the people's livelihood in four to five provinces on average, which was not a small workload.

Because, at present, it is roughly a unit of one million people, and the whole world is divided into more than 200 provinces, and each person has to manage the food, drink, and housing of four or five million people, and even education, medical care, and old-age care.

And as the only empire at the helm of this world, it is already very rare to be able to remember the names of more than two hundred provinces, after all, there are many strange and awkward names in them.

And what about the future? The population of these provinces will continue to grow, maybe it will exceed 10 million, or even more, in the face of such a situation, can you count on the emperor to judge all affairs?

It is impossible, human energy is limited, and the political power will definitely be diverted from the hands of the emperor, and then there will be a certain degree of independence and autonomy, and finally it will fall apart.

Therefore, even if Datang can now firmly control the world through the level of science and technology and the level of industry, Sun Xiangfu only dares to speak for a thousand years at most, and even, at the current speed of development, it will not reach a thousand years.

He said that it was so long, and he just wanted to appease Li Chengqian's heart.

After all, it is possible to achieve a millennium of rule if we continue to push for reforms based on the will of the people.

"So, what kind of extent can the development of science and technology reach in the future?" Li Chengqian asked again.

"There should be no limit to this, because science is supposed to make many impossible things possible, and go through some roads that human beings would not otherwise be able to take.

Of course, science and technology have developed to a certain extent, and they should not be abused.

For example, the gunpowder we are making now is already very powerful, and in the future, it may be possible to create even more powerful things, even to the point of destroying this world.

So! If human beings want to live a stable life in this world, they need to make a lot of efforts, maintain a lot of restraint, and as rulers, they must always see both sides of the problem. ”

"Destroy the world?" Li Chengqian shuddered just by listening to this.

At this time, he regretted a little that he had asked Sun Xiangfu about this issue, because Li Chunfeng said that what Sun Xiangfu said was likely to come true.

Sun Xiangfu nodded and said, "Yes, because science and technology are endless, there are infinite possibilities, and people must be in awe of life, especially rulers, in addition to knowing how to use it to bring convenience to human beings, but also find ways to limit its damage to human beings and the world." ”

Li Chengqian roughly understood what Sun Xiangfu said, and now, to a certain extent, his political ability is no longer inferior to Li Shimin, and the views and knowledge of later generations he received from Sun Xiangfu far exceed Li Shimin, and he is the most suitable ruler in the new situation of the Tang Dynasty.

He knew Li Shimin's abdication plan early on, so not only Sun Xiangfu had to accept the upcoming change of identity, but Li Chengqian also had to begin to accept the next change of identity, and asked Sun Xiangfu for advice, so that he could see the general trend of the future more clearly, and deal with the challenge of the position of emperor, which was the purpose of his trip.

And after asking, he felt even more pressure, it turned out that an emperor, a future qualified ruler, needs to worry so much. (https:)
