[Ask for monthly tickets, please recommend votes]
The Luban Dajiang Temple not only received money from the Ministry of Industry, but also lost money from hundreds of business associations. Part of the Tianzhi tax was also used for the construction of this Taoist temple. It can be said that the money is too much to be used up. The accountant alone
There were more than a dozen people sent by the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Business Association, and the Prince of Qin's Palace to jointly manage the accounts.
The coins are piled up in more than a dozen large rooms, and there are also dedicated people guarding them in Qin Wangzhuang.
But in this view of Emperor Shennong, only the Ministry of Household Affairs has given a symbolic payment of three hundred guan, but His Highness the King of Qin has ordered the construction to start immediately. The problem of money is a minor issue.
Even if money is not an issue, you should always solve it.
Li Chunfeng couldn't sleep well these days, and Yuan Tiangang scolded him because his Taoist mind was unstable.
Li Chunfeng came to Li Yuanxing three times this day, but Li Yuanxing ignored him at all. Li Yuanxing was cursing in his heart, you put me on this high platform like a monkey for the people to see. I also want you to be anxious, isn't it just to cultivate a
The Taoist temple is worth a lot of money.
One hundred thousand yuan was spent, and the first phase of the project was completed without any fuss.
But Li Yuanxing refused to tell Li Chunfeng the truth, which made Li Chunfeng burst into flames.
"Chunfeng, here is some fire-removing elixir, just take it by mouth and it will be good!" Sun Laodao meant well, and Li Chunfeng just thanked him. After Sun Laodao left, Yuan Tiangang said: "Your Daoist heart is not stable, let's see if Brother Sun Dao doesn't
Don’t panic, this is the way!”
Li Chunfeng slapped his face a few times but said nothing.
Li Yuanxing was very angry because he had been trapped in some bullshit ritual for a day. But at the same time, he was very happy because there were a lot of bubbles on Li Chunfeng's mouth, which was obviously because he was anxious.
Until Li Yuanxing returned to the village in the evening, Li Chunfeng was not given an explanation.
On the contrary, Sun Laodao said kindly: "Chunfeng has an unstable Taoist heart, and His Highness King Qin should have everything under control."
What else could be done? Li Chunfeng could only nod.
Li Yuanxing had already grasped Shennongguan's money, but the time was not yet there.
After returning to Zhuangzi, I heard that Wu Zhao had left the village, and that he did not plan to return to Qinwangzhuang tonight, but would spend the night in Chang'an City. Su An was following him, and Li Chang also sent Liu Erxiao to go there.
He took the little Taoist priest, Zhao Yande, thirty ordinary personal guards, six people including the maid Chunlan and the ordinary maids.
In Chang'an City, Li Yuanxing did not believe that anyone would hurt Wu Zhao.
If Su An can't stand it any longer, Qin Qiong's Mansion, Li Jing's Mansion, and even the imperial palace are all looking for reinforcements.
However, Li Yuanxing didn't understand what Wu Zhao was doing when he entered Chang'an.
Without Wu Zhao around, Qinwangzhuang looked even more deserted. Qinwangzhuang, in the village itself, had 600 guards, more than 200 servants, more than 100 maids, and 20 eunuchs. Speaking of which, Qinwangzhuang was only
There are thousands of people in Zhuangzi, which covers an area of several hundred acres, but after nightfall, it is so quiet that there is no sound.
Even if Wu Zhao is away, Li Yuanxing can calm down and do many things.
For example, write down the cost, such as improving the layout around Qinwangzhuang, or even the entire Chang'an County.
In the eyes of the people of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an County was already a very lively place. There were now no less than 150,000 people gathered here, which was definitely a densely populated area.
However, Li Yuanxing knew how high the land utilization rate of Chang'an County was in modern times. If hundreds of thousands of people were placed in Chang'an County, the population would really be too sparse. If several million people were placed in Chang'an County, it would barely be considered too many people.
.
Chang'an County, a suburb of the capital of the Tang Dynasty.
In the modern era of later generations, what should the capital city look like if it is approximately 40 miles away, with 1,500 square kilometers and a population of tens of millions, which is not that much.
The development of Chang'an County has just begun, and the utilization rate is less than 5%.
At the second watch, Qiuxiang gave a very discreet reminder outside the window, it was late at night, please take a rest early.
When Li Yuanxing first heard it, he didn't react. But after a while, Li Yuanxing came to his senses. Wu Zhao was not here and no one was causing trouble. He immediately turned off the lights, closed the door, and asked Qiuxiang to come into his room.
This is naturally a spring scene.
The next morning, when it was just dawn, Li Yuanxing had not gotten up yet. Today he got up late, naturally because the beautiful woman was in bed, and he slept late last night. But a rough voice came from outside: "Wulang, Wulang. Someone is here."
Come on, Lao Cheng is here, hahaha!"
Cheng Motou's laughter startled Qinwangzhuang and made him start to flutter again.
Li Yuanxing did not welcome him out immediately. He called Bai Erwa to come over and explain a few words. Then he returned to the room and sat firmly on the edge of the bed. He said to Qiuxiang: "Today is an important day for me. The time has come for me."
Then go out. Go and check what I asked you to prepare, and there shouldn't be any mistakes."
Qiuxiang put on her clothes and quickly arranged her hair.
"General Cheng, His Highness said that General Cheng will be very happy today, but the time has not come yet, and His Highness will not see the guests. His Highness said that he will meditate behind closed doors until the time comes!"
"All kinds of pleasures?" Old Devil Cheng asked with a smile.
"Yes, that's what my Highness ordered!" Bai Erwa replied with a smile.
Pah, pah, pah! Old Devil Cheng patted Bai Erwa hard on the back several times: "My favorite thing is to come to Qin Wangzhuang. This time, I was very successful in doing something. I will ask His Highness for a favor later."
.Hahaha!" Cheng Motou was in a very good mood. As soon as the gate of Chang'an City opened in the morning, he came over with a few pegasus accompanying him.
Ten o'clock is the time set by Li Yuanxing.
The old wolf was sitting on his knees in his room, wearing a fine linen costume and a sword on his waist.
Lian Yue carefully inspected Lao Lang's clothes and accessories on the side, for fear of neglecting that point. This was a big day for Lao Lang. Originally, accepting retainers was just a very common thing in the Tang Dynasty. But His Highness King Qin
But dozens of dignitaries from Chang'an City were invited to watch the ceremony.
This made Lao Lang have to pay attention.
Li Chang was also sitting on his knees in his room, wearing a pure black robe.
He was no longer a warrior, even though his killing skills had not deteriorated at all, so he put on an ordinary robe.
In terms of modern time, it is nine forty-five. A big guest came to Qin Wangzhuang. It can be said that in the Tang Dynasty, not to mention Li Yuanxing, even the Emperor Li Er of the Tang Dynasty would go out to greet the big guest.
The Great Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan, arrived.
Li Yuan signaled not to disturb Li Yuanxing. Since Li Yuanxing cared so much about the ceremony of this retainer, he would watch and see what Li Yuanxing would do. You must know that retainers, as Wu Zhao said, are lower than guest ministers and higher than domestic slaves.
But Li Yuanxing's reaction was obviously weird. Not to mention that Li Yuan had been the emperor for nine years in the Tang Dynasty, even when he was the Duke of Tang Dynasty, or even earlier, before the Sui Dynasty, he had never heard of what kind of events would be held for those who accepted retainers.
ceremony.
But now, Li Yuanxing, King of Qin in the Tang Dynasty, wanted to hold a ceremony.
Moreover, they invited so many nobles to come, and even if they didn't come, they at least sent junior members of the family to come and give a congratulatory gift. These juniors and those who send family officials are definitely two different standards.
When it comes to congratulatory gifts, it is just a formality.
Everyone knows that King Qin will not care about this little gift.
Li Yuan's appearance surprised everyone. Li Jing saw Li Yuan's clothes from a distance and stood up. There are only three people in the Tang Dynasty who are qualified to wear dragon robes. And of this color.
Only the emperor wore a dragon robe. The emperor of the Tang Dynasty wore a bright yellow robe, while Li Yuanxing wore a blue robe. Li Chengqian was now eligible to participate in politics, so he wore a light-colored robe.
"You guys think I'm old and leave me in the harem."
Li Yuan complained as soon as he entered the door. Li Jing quickly let Li Yuan take the seat. When he was about to help him, Li Yuan opened his hand: "I'm not old yet. If I hadn't heard that there was something fun in Qin Wangzhuang, I would have come here by myself. If I had not
But come here, none of you will ask me to come with you!"
Li Jing smiled along with him: "Your Majesty, you should go out for a walk more often. You will have a lot of fun!"
"Well, that's a good thing."
While Li Yuan and Li Jingzheng were talking, Li Yuanxing also arrived. He was originally planning to wait until the time came before coming out. But when Li Yuan came, he had to come out. This is etiquette, even if Li Yuan doesn't allow Li Yuanxing to be disturbed, it is Li Yuan's care. And Li Yuanxing
It is your courtesy to come out.
"Father!" Li Yuanxing saluted.
"Your Highness, Prince Qin, is famous for hating false etiquette, but you did this to me. I don't like it!" Li Yuan said with a cold face.
Li Yuanxing laughed: "Okay, then today's ceremony is over, all kinds of fun!"
"Okay!" Li Yuan slammed the table hard: "This sentence is very happy, I like me!"
Li Chang and Lao Lang also arrived at this time. They first saluted Li Yuan, then saluted Li Yuanxing and stepped aside.
"Since you are a retainer in our Prince Qin's Palace, then the rules will be followed by the rules of our Prince Qin's Palace." Li Yuanxing did not strictly say what the rules were. In the Tang Dynasty, if a retainer betrayed it, it was a serious crime. The entire Tang Dynasty would kill him, including three.
It is a serious crime of the clan. And Tangren Chongxin himself, the probability of such a thing happening is infinitely close to zero.
Bai Erwa came in carrying a live chicken, and then began to set up the incense table.
Li Yuanxing's incense case is very simple, with two candles and some simple offerings. The one enshrined is not the god, but only the simple words "Heaven and Earth". However, these two words were written by Li Yuanxing and asked Zhu Suiliang to write them. They are naturally treasures. I didn't expect that today it would be a treasure.
After using it, Li Yuanxing only worships heaven and earth. This is because of his status as Star Lord.
On the incense table are placed four-color offerings, yellow paper, talisman water, incense, and a small pile of rice.
Li Yuanxing's mouth was moving, but no one heard what Li Yuanxing was saying. They only saw Li Yuanxing snap his fingers: "The god of fire borrows fire! I, the king Li Yuanxing, will sacrifice the fire of heaven and earth today!"
At that moment, the two candles, which were ten steps away from everyone and three steps away from Li Yuanxing, actually lit themselves.
Lao Lang and Li Chang immediately knelt down. They had seen such a scene before, spontaneous combustion without fire. Is this a magic spell?
Even Li Yuan stood up, not to mention Li Jing and others. Even if such a ceremony is a viewing ceremony, it is not easy to sit down. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
