Not long after, Li Chong saw the entire Chang'an City from a distance. The entire Chang'an City's masculine energy was so strong and gorgeous, and its awe-inspiring righteousness was overwhelming, that to the monks, the entire Chang'an City was like a scorching sun.
After looking as far as the eye can see, an invisible and transparent curtain protects the entire city of Chang'an in the scorching sun. A huge five-clawed golden dragon is flying and tumbling majestically.
Looking at Chang'an City, Li Chong did not dare to fly, otherwise he would be blocked from the outside of the city, or even injured by the masculine aura. He fell from the void and walked towards the city gate step by step.
Walking into the city, Li Chong felt an aura of elegance and awe-inspiring aura. Nowadays, the Confucian trend in the entire Chang'an City is extremely strong. The merchants and soldiers can all recite one or two Confucian famous sayings and classics, and are deeply influenced by the Confucian atmosphere.
As Li Chong walked, he felt the atmosphere of the entire Chang'an City and couldn't help but feel overjoyed. This was not a sign of the prosperity of the human race.
Looking at the palace filled with purple energy, Li Chong's eyes flashed and he walked quickly, preparing to go to the palace first and then return to the mansion.
At this time, in the palace hall, many prime ministers from Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province and many close military commanders were gathering in the Zichen Palace to discuss the matter of traveling to the west.
In the main hall, Taizong, dressed in golden royal robes, sat in front of his desk, with a purple aura rising from his head. Nine five-clawed golden dragons were faintly hovering around his body. The black and yellow canopy on top seemed to be invisible and visible, and the imperial majesty became increasingly strong.
Several ministers in Confucian robes and broad robes stood respectfully, with elegant expressions, either calm and authoritative, serious or upright, showing the majesty of a generation of famous prime ministers.
Looking at the many ministers in the audience, Taizong knew that these were the confidants of the Tang Dynasty and the only ones worthy of discussing important matters, so he spoke with a majestic expression.
"Buddhism has told me about the person who traveled to the West this time. I think all of you dear friends already know that this person is closely related to our Confucian family and the royal family. He is also the reincarnation of the Golden Chanzi of Buddhism. I didn't expect Buddhism to have planned it for so long.
, has coveted our Tang Dynasty for a long time, and now the journey to the west is jointly planned by the gods and Buddhas of heaven and earth, and it is already unstoppable. We, the Tang Dynasty, must go against the current and earn an opportunity for our human race, the Tang Dynasty.
During the journey to the West, although our human race was the protagonist, we were excluded. Fortunately, our human race is now very powerful, and the Tang Dynasty has great fortune.
The essence and blood of ancient mythical beasts gave me the Tang Dynasty. In exchange for this matter, this is the power of the Tang Dynasty.
But it is far from enough for us, the Tang Dynasty, and for the human race. We, the Tang Dynasty, must take this opportunity to obtain more benefits, so that we can withstand our great enemy and hope to revive the human race."
"But your majesty, Buddhism is an ambitious people. In this journey to the west, our human race can hardly intervene. We can only passively participate. We can only hope that Buddhism can fulfill its promise, and the essence and blood of the sacred beasts can only wait for Buddhism to give it. I'm afraid that by then
What kind of conspiracy will the Buddha Sect have that will cause our human race to suffer losses? If the Buddha Sect reneges on its promise, then our human race will not be able to go up to Lingshan Mountain to deal with it."
After hearing Taizong's words, Fang Xuanling said with a thoughtful and worried expression.
"Hmph, our human race is recovering in strength now, and our country in the Tang Dynasty is gaining strength. If Buddhism breaks its promise, please give me three thousand iron cavalry, and I will destroy all the Buddhist temples in the Tang Dynasty."
Yuchi Jingde said angrily.
"General Yuchi does not need to be angry. The Buddhists made an oath in front of the immortals and Buddhas in the world. It is impossible for them to break their promises. Moreover, our human race has powerful people in charge, and they dare not break their promises easily. But it is unknown what tricks are used in it, and just like Fang Fang
According to the Prime Minister, our human race will be almost unable to intervene in this journey to the west, and we will be in a completely passive position, which is too detrimental to our human race."
Changsun Wuji heard the words of several people and said while analyzing.
"Your Majesty should have made a decision on this matter long ago!"
Then he looked at Taizong and said respectfully.
Looking at the expressions and reactions of several people, Taizong closed his eyes slightly, then opened and closed his eyes and said lightly.
"I want to become opposite-sex brothers with Jin Chanzi!"
"What?!"
Hearing Taizong's words, all the ministers in the palace were instantly shocked, their faces were full of disbelief, and their eyes were filled with horror.
"Your Majesty, you can't do it. You absolutely can't do it. Your Majesty is the most powerful person in the world. He gathers the fortunes of heaven and earth and human beings, and enjoys the admiration of all people. How can you condescend your dignity and become a sworn sworn brother from outside the country? Even if you are the reincarnation of a great Buddhist power, how can you do it?
To be compared to the royal family of our human race, wouldn’t this undermine your majesty’s majesty? How can your majesty make such a sacrifice? You can’t do that, your majesty.”
After being shocked, many ministers immediately knelt down on the ground and entered the abyss. At the same time, everyone felt a deep sense of self-blame. As ministers, they could not share the king's worries, so that the king made such a sacrifice, but the ministers were powerless.
Taizong seemed to have expected the reaction of all the ministers in the palace. His expression did not waver at all, and he said to everyone with a faint dignity.
"As all my dear friends have said, I, the Tang Dynasty, cannot directly participate in the journey to the West. This immortal Buddha will definitely leave our human race aside. However, if I and Jin Chanzi become brothers of the opposite sex, Jin Chanzi will owe me a debt.
Great cause and effect.
We, the Tang Dynasty, are now very lucky. During this journey to the west, I will use the luck of the Tang Dynasty to protect it through many disasters and help it complete its mission of learning. When the time comes, the luck and merit gained by this golden cicada will be greater than that of our great Tang Dynasty.
A share of the Tang Dynasty, judging from the overwhelming luck of this journey to the west, it will definitely be helpful to us, the Tang Dynasty, and the current trend of the resurgence of our human race will definitely continue."
After saying this, Taizong's eyes were firm and he said calmly.
"If Jin Chanzi encounters a catastrophe during this journey to the west and damages his luck, I will abdicate immediately to avoid damaging the fortune of my human race."
"Your Majesty, it is the fault of the veterans and others that they failed to share the Lord's worries. They allowed Your Majesty to make such a sacrifice."
Hearing the reason for Taizong's sworn sworn vows, everyone felt sad and helpless. Apart from this method, what else could the human race do?
When they knew that Taizong, for the sake of the human race and the Tang Dynasty, would even abdicate the throne in case of emergency to preserve the royal family and the great fortune of the human race, everyone looked at Taizong and felt a deep respect and admiration.
Everyone knew in their hearts that His Majesty and Jin Chanzi had sworn sworn vows with the determination to die. Once they became sworn sworn brothers, their fates would be linked. Once Jin Chanzi encountered a catastrophe on his journey to the west, the fate of the entire dynasty would be affected.
If His Majesty abdicates the throne, he will inevitably suffer backlash, his luck will be exhausted, and he may even die.
For a time, all the ministers in the palace had mixed emotions. Many ministers were concerned about the world. All they wanted in life was to meet the Lord of the Ming Dynasty and show what they had learned in their hearts. Now, what they saw in front of them was not only the wisest king, but also the one who directly pursued the Five Emperors for eternity.
Even the Emperor is not an exaggeration. Everyone has endless worship and respect in their hearts.
After hearing Taizong's words, sighs resounded in a secret place deep in the palace. Although the human race has improved now, it is still too weak compared to the immortals and Buddhas. Although everyone is strong, they can only barely protect the human race.
Once it goes too far and attracts the saints of heaven and earth, everyone is afraid that they will be slaughtered by flipping their hands. Now the only choice is for the emperor to be aggrieved. In ancient times, the great emperor of the human race has never been so wronged. He is holding the supreme scepter. Who in the world dares not to do this?
Yes. But at this time, the human race was being bullied like this.
Everyone could only sigh helplessly.
Looking at the expressions of many ministers in the palace, Taizong felt calm, because he understood that he was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and these were what he had to do. He had to shoulder more responsibilities, and he had to do it for the sake of the dawn of the world.
The human race in the world should make its own contribution, even if it means sacrifice.
Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, he said calmly to everyone
"My dear friends, please don't do this. I am doing this for the sake of the Tang Dynasty. This journey to the west is arranged by Buddhism and will definitely succeed. When the time comes, Jin Chanzi will definitely owe the Tang Dynasty great karma.
You will protect me, the Tang Dynasty, for the sake of the great catastrophe in the future!"
After hearing Taizong's words, everyone felt relieved, and then their hearts tightened.
"May I ask Your Majesty what disasters there are? Our Tang Dynasty is now at its peak, how can there be disasters?
When Taizong heard the minister asking about the disaster, his heart sank slightly, his brows furrowed slightly, and he pointed at a middle-aged minister wearing a star robe next to him.
"My dear friends, please first listen to Qin Tianjian's reasoning!"
After hearing Taizong's words, Yuan Tiangang who was standing aside slowly walked out and spoke to Taizong and all the ministers in the palace.
"Qin Tianjian speculated that Yinghuo entered the Yuan Temple and the hen general Si Chen, the Li family of the Tang Dynasty will have a catastrophic disaster in a few decades. And the human race will also be affected by this, and the situation will weaken."
Yuan Tiangang's words shocked the world. Several ministers looked horrified and couldn't believe it. Now that the Tang Dynasty was at its peak, it was overwhelming all the evil spirits in the world, and great human beings were born one after another. How could they decline so easily, and how could they be replaced by women? This is simply unbelievable.
It is the greatest absurdity in the world.
However, Qin Tianjian is responsible for observing the celestial phenomena, calculating solar terms, formulating calendars, monitoring the world's fortunes, predicting the good and bad luck of the royal family, and calculating fortune. Moreover, it is such a huge matter, so Qin Tianjian will not speculate randomly.
At that time, everyone couldn't help but feel uneasy.
As if he didn't notice the reactions of several people, Yuan Tiangang continued speaking without changing his expression.
"Based on the astrology, Qin Tian Jian speculates that this time is related to the journey to the West. This chicken may be related to Buddhism, and the rescuer will also be a Buddhist power. As for the others, Qin Tian Jian is powerless."
Hearing Yuan Tiangang's words, everyone's heart sank. It is well known that Buddhism has a conspiracy. Does Buddhism still want to replace the Tang Dynasty and fool the human race?
Seeing the expressions of His Highness and his ministers, Taizong moved slightly and continued.
"Dear sirs, Duke Yan Sheng has also spent a lot of effort to deduce the matter of my journey to the west in the Tang Dynasty. Li Chunfeng, you will inform all the ministers of Duke Yan's speculation."
After hearing Taizong's words, His Highness and everyone's expressions froze, and they immediately listened attentively. No one dared to show the slightest disrespect towards Duke Yansheng.
"It's Your Majesty."
After hearing Taizong's words, Li Chunfeng, who had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes and was dressed in white Confucian uniform, said respectfully.
"The journey to the West was jointly planned by the immortals and Buddhas of heaven and earth. It is related to the great destiny of the world and the great events of the human race. Not long ago, Yan Shenggong spent a lot of effort and used the calculation method of the Book of Changes to predict what our Tang Dynasty will do in a few decades.
A great calamity, and our Confucian family will also suffer from this calamity, and will not be able to recover slowly until hundreds of years later."
Li Chunfeng's calm words shocked and frightened all the ministers. They were all Confucian scholars, and all they knew and learned were the imperial court and Confucianism. Now that they heard that both the Tang Dynasty and Confucianism would suffer such a catastrophe, they felt frightened in their hearts.
Extremely, but no one dares to doubt Yan Shenggong’s inference. Yan Shenggong is the most sacred Confucian scholar in Confucianism. After the Confucian saint Confucius, he is the disseminator and promoter of Confucianism in the past dynasties. As long as Yan Shenggong exists, Confucianism will not exist.
will perish.
Although Confucianism teaches respecting ghosts and gods and keeping them at a distance, the Confucian calculation method of the Yi Jing is based on the evolution of the hexagrams of heaven and earth based on the Yi Jing. It is an extremely sophisticated method of calculation and is not inferior to any innate divine calculations of Buddhism and Taoism.
However, mastering the methods of the Book of Changes requires extremely advanced Confucian training. Only great Confucian scholars in the past dynasties could master one or two of them, and only Yan Shenggong could master them completely.
So when I suddenly heard that Yan Shenggong personally calculated that Confucianism would suffer such a catastrophe, I was inevitably frightened. However, they were both well-educated Confucian scholars, and their Qi cultivation skills were also excellent. Although I was surprised, I quickly calmed down and listened to Li Chunfeng continue to explain Yan Shenggong.
inference.
"Originally, this catastrophe was unavoidable, and as Qin Tianjian said, the person who tied the bell had to be tied to untie the bell. However, Master recently checked the sky and found that the sky was in chaos, the stars were twinkling, and the original crape myrtle constellation was dim and wanted to be replaced.
But now, a bright star has suddenly appeared in the Ziwei constellation. It protects the Ziwei Emperor Star. And I, the Confucian, are also protected by this bright star. All this shows that this catastrophe will have a certain turn for the better. We no longer only rely on Buddhism,
And this person is located in the Ziwei constellation, so he must be from the Tang Dynasty royal family."
"His Majesty is thoughtful and foresighted. Are you worried that things may change, so he takes a prudent approach and swore sworn sworn vows to Jin Chanzi in order to continue the fortune of the Tang Dynasty and let Jin Chanzi save the Tang Dynasty from this disaster, help the human race, and repay his own karma?
On the other hand, you want to find this member of the royal family?"
Du Ruhui asked with a very respectful expression.
"What Ai Qing said is exactly what Jin Chanzi said after traveling to the west. If it is Buddhism that plots against the Tang Dynasty, Jin Chanzi will definitely not let me, the Li family, be cut off and will not do any harm in order to repay the cause and effect of the Tang Dynasty.
Human race! As for the other one, it is too vague and vague, so we must plan carefully."
Taizong said solemnly.
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Everyone said in unison.
"I dare to ask Your Majesty, who will be the person who protects our Imperial Family of the Tang Dynasty and protects our Confucianism? Can Duke Yan Sheng make it clear?"
Zhang Daoyuan asked with a slightly shocked expression.
"I don't know this person either. Li Chunfeng, come and tell me all the calculations made by Yan Shenggong!"
After hearing Zhang Daoyuan's words, Taizong pointed at Li Chunfeng and said.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Li Chunfeng bowed forward and said.
"Your Majesty, ministers, I can't deduce this person, Yan Shenggong. I only know that this person must be from the royal family of the Tang Dynasty. This star has always been hidden in the Ziwei constellation, and it has only recently shined brightly, penetrating the sky and the sky, sweeping Ziwei into the sky.
The constellation shelters him, and Yan Shenggong once said that this person may become an existence like the Holy Emperor of the human race."
"What!"
"Is there such a person in the royal family?"
After hearing Li Chunfeng's words, everyone's hearts froze and they were extremely shocked. Duke Yansheng thought of him so highly. Who could this person be? Everyone thought hard for a while.
Suddenly, a tall and heroic figure flashed in everyone's mind, and the sky roared in the hall. He was a blockbuster, and the world knew him. He faced the challenge of the alien race in the crisis and saved the prestige of the Tang Dynasty.
And it was exactly the same as what Yan Shenggong said. For a moment, everyone looked at each other, and they all saw shock and disbelief in their eyes. They simply couldn't believe that it was the original stupid prince. They were all horrified and murmured.
"The Twelfth Prince, Li Chong!"
Sitting in the main hall, Taizong also guessed Li Chong. His expression was full of joy and pride, and he looked up to the sky and murmured to himself.
"Jier, this is our child!"
Just when all the ministers in the palace were shocked and disbelieving, Cheng Yaojin, who was guarding the outside of the palace, looked shocked, burst in with a look of disbelief on his face, and said loudly.
"Your Majesty, the twelfth prince Li Chong has an audience!"
Hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, everyone was shocked. As soon as he said this prince, he came. I wonder if this prince is the person Yan Shenggong said.
When Taizong heard Cheng Yaojin's words, he felt happy.
"Chong'er said that the search for the essence and blood of Jin Dibian was unsuccessful in such a short time, but as long as the person can come back safely, it will be fine, and now the person predicted by Yan Shenggong may be Chong'er. All of this is
Chong'er's blessing is Datang's blessing."
Thinking of this, Taizong looked happy and did not blame Cheng Yaojin for his recklessness.
Before Taizong could speak, Cheng Yaojin swallowed hard and said in horror.
"Your Majesty, the twelfth prince, he has been promoted to the Earth Transformation level and became the youngest Earth Transformation warrior."
"What!"
"How can it be!"
In an instant, all the ministers in the palace were almost turned to stone. The method of earth transformation?! How is it possible? How could he be promoted to the earth transformation level in such a short time, and how could he find the essence and blood? Moreover, these twelve princes are still so young,
How can one achieve earth transformation? This earth transformation is not a big carrot and cabbage. Once the earth transformation method is achieved, a warrior will be like a fish jumping over a dragon's gate, flying across the sky from then on.
After all the ministers in the palace were shocked and in complete disbelief, the generals immediately released their fists to investigate, and the prime ministers immediately focused their eyes and used the method of looking forward to the Qi.
"boom!"
Suddenly, in their eyes, a straight line of wolf smoke energy spread across the sky and the earth, like a mighty river, rolling, turbulent, and mighty.
At the same time, the huge purple light of luck in the huge wolf smoke essence burst into the sky, instantly covering up the wolf smoke essence. The huge purple light emitted the aura of nobility, respect, and heavenly nobles.
In the midst of everyone's horrified eyes, a golden divine dragon with a perfect expression was swimming in the light of luck, chasing a group of golden jade butterflies with great joy. It was like a golden dragon playing with a pearl, with a noble and stern look.
It is vaguely consistent with the golden dragon of fortune in the Tang Dynasty.
Seeing this scene, all the ministers in the palace could no longer calm down and exclaimed.
"Luck turns into a dragon, and the dragon's shape appears, which is a sign of the emperor!"
