Chapter 197: Give Laojun a title of honor and build a palace(1/2)

When Li Shimin, who was kneeling on the ground, heard Li Yuan ask Taishang Laojun if he had anything to say to him, he kowtowed again before answering respectfully.

"The distant ancestor did indeed say something to the child..."

"I knew it..."

His Majesty Li Yuan raised the corners of his mouth, sneered, and turned to look at Pei Ji.

"Lao Jun will definitely have something to say to me. So, Erlang, what did you tell me, Lao Jun said? Does it have something to do with you, Erlang?"

Pei Ji, who was standing aside but had not yet sat back, had a wry smile on his face.

To be honest, he really wants to disappear now.

This King of Qin was young and vigorous, and had outstanding military exploits. However, he saw him being beaten like this by His Majesty Li Yuan. What if His Highness the King of Qin couldn't think of it...

What should I do if I stab myself to death as an insider?

"The matter conveyed by our distant ancestors has nothing to do with the child,"

Li Shimin knelt on the ground and said respectfully.

"The distant ancestor just asked me to tell Aye that the dragon vein of the Tang Dynasty is in Chang'an, and moving the capital is absolutely not advisable!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Yuan was instantly moved.

Yes, during this period, because the Turks were moving southward every day, Chang'an City was shocked three times a day, so His Majesty Li Yuan had quietly started to think about moving the capital. As for whether to move the capital to Luoyang or somewhere else, His Majesty Li Yuan had not yet decided.

But the thought of moving the capital was still lingering in his heart, and he did not tell others...

His plan was to wait until next year, after Liu Heitai's problem was solved, before putting forward this suggestion and soliciting the opinions of the ministers, but now Li Shimin made it clear.

Li Yuan was very sure that no one knew about his intention to move the capital, so that meant... Erlang really met Taishang Laojun yesterday.

"Pei Qing, please go back to the check-in room first!"

After a moment of silence, Li Yuan slowly said to Pei Ji.

"Let me have a long talk with Erlang..."

"I resign!"

After Pei Ji, who had wanted to leave for a long time, heard this, he immediately stood up and bowed to Li Yuan as if he was being pardoned. Then he exited the Zhaode Hall without looking back and went back to his check-in room.

After Pei Ji left, Li Yuan waved his hands to the left and right again, and the attendants and maids waiting in Zhaode Hall also bowed and left.

"Erlang..."

When only the two of them were left in Zhaode Hall, Li Yuan lowered his head and looked at Li Shimin.

"Tell the truth to Aye, is this story about you meeting the distant ancestor true or false?"

"Every word the child said is true..."

Li Shimin kowtowed to the ground again and said seriously.

"In fact, our ancestors often appeared in Chang'an during this period. The pillar of light that often appears in Chang'an City at night is the staircase through which our ancestors came and went between the two worlds. Last night, I saw my ancestors riding on the clouds and going straight into the heaven through the white pillar of light.

"

"That white beam of light is the ladder used by our ancestors to travel between heaven and earth?"

After hearing the news, Li Yuan immediately looked at Li Shimin with a serious face.

"is this real?"

Li Shimin raised his head and let Li Yuan look into his sincere eyes.

"Please believe me, Aye, what I just said is absolutely true."

After Li Yuan looked at his son carefully for a while, he finally confirmed one thing.

Erlang did not lie to himself this time...

No wonder even the Taishi Bureau couldn't figure out what was going on with that light pillar. It turned out to be Lao Jun's staircase to enter and exit the human world!

It seems that I have thought too much.

Whether it was this crystal cup and the brown sweet syrup inside, or the light pillars that frequently appeared in Chang'an at night during this period, or guessing his intention to move the capital, it was probably not something Erlang could do.

But if what Jiro said is true...

Li Yuan gritted his teeth, leaned over and whispered to Li Shimin.

"Then you met the Yuanzu last night. Did the Yuanzu acknowledge us, the descendants?"

That's right, after discovering that Taishang Laojun's sanctification was true, His Majesty Li Yuan couldn't help but began to worry that if Taishang Laojun revealed himself as a saint and said that he had no descendants of his own, then things would be difficult to handle.

"My child also asked this question."

Li Shimin replied obediently.

"The distant ancestor replied that his surname is also Li, and he is almost two thousand years older than me. It is not an exaggeration to receive a courtesy from me."

"call……"

Li Yuan exhaled a long breath, his heart instantly settled down, and then he felt a burst of ecstasy.

Since Taishang Laojun said this to Erlang, it means that Laojun doesn't care at all about recognizing him as his ancestor. In other words, he can finally say that he is a descendant of Laojun.

Well, I said this before, but actually I still felt a little guilty at that time.

But now that Laojun himself has admitted it, what else is there to say?

I am a descendant of Lao Tzu, and there will be no discussion. Anyone who dares to be a bastard will be beaten to death!

"Erlang, you just said that our distant ancestors came to earth for the Taoist priest named Qingwei?"

"good!"

Li Shimin nodded and expressed his reasoning.

"The child suspects that Qingwei must be a banished immortal, so he attracted the attention of the distant ancestors."

"Ban the Immortal?"

After hearing this word, Li Yuan had a doubtful look on his face.

"are you sure……"

"Last night, my child, I saw others wandering around Lingnan in the temple, and they even brought back a basket of lychees."

Li Shimin began to give Li Yuan Amway.

"Now that Qingwei is less than twenty years old, he can build a foundation and enter the Taoism, and travel around the world. Even Qingxiazi, the Taishi Ling, couldn't do it when he was young."

"Uh-huh……"

Li Yuan nodded.

"Aye, tell me, why is he able to possess such high supernatural powers and mana at such a young age? Is there any other explanation besides being given by heaven?"

"Uh-huh……"

Li Yuan nodded again in confusion.

"And the most important thing is..."

Li Shimin whispered to Li Yuan.

"That Qingwei appearance is really too handsome. Aye, just think about it, is there anyone like this in the world?"

After hearing what Li Shimin said, Li Yuan silently recalled Qingwei's appearance in his mind, and nodded with sympathy.

Yes, that Qingwei appearance is indeed too foul.

"And the statue of Laojun in Qingdu Temple that the child saw last night is completely different from the one in previous years. Qingwei said that it was the elder man of Xiang Pei's family who asked someone to reshape the golden body of Laojun for him, but the child

I asked Lawyer Pei specifically, and the people he sent just repaired the house and definitely did not replace the statue of Laojun."

Li Shimin whispered to Li Yuan again.

"The statue of Laojun now in Qingdu looks exactly like our distant ancestor, and it looks like a living person. I'm sure there will never be such a skilled craftsman in Chang'an City."

Li Yuan nodded silently.

Everything proved that Laojun had indeed manifested his holiness in Chang'an City.

But this incident happened so suddenly that His Majesty Li Yuan still felt a little confused.

"So Erlang, what do you mean..."

"Haier thinks that this matter is a great piece of good news for me, Datang!"

Li Shimin said with excitement.

"Since the distant ancestor has recognized us, then the distant ancestor is a member of the Li Tang royal family. I think Aye should give the distant ancestor a title, set up Qingdu Temple as the palace of the distant ancestor, and renovate it..."

"Would you like to give me a respectful title?"

His Majesty Li Yuan nodded slightly.

"Okay, then Erlang, what title do you think is appropriate?"

"The matter of the honorific title that I secretly thought should not be decided by us. Aye should seek the opinions of Taoist sects in the world, as well as officials in the court, great Confucians and the like, and let them all discuss it..."
To be continued...
