Chapter 19 I have to jump back to God(1/2)

Li Chengqi left with his children and grandchildren and his wives and concubines.

The Tiangang Tower was full of joy. This bet involved everyone's personal interests. Taking it back to the Inner Health Bureau means that everyone has got rid of the surveillance of the Inner Health Bureau.

In the room, Li Longji looked solemn and asked Gao Lishi, "You just said you would like to guarantee Thirty-Balang. It seems that you know something, but you didn't tell me!"

Gao Lishi knelt down and kowtowed, "I dare not hide it from Your Majesty. I dare not say anything about it. It is because I am afraid of being punished by God and implicated Your Majesty."

"God's punishment! Is it so serious?"

Gallis sighed, "Does Your Majesty remember the change of the year name?"

Li Longji nodded, "I have decided to change the year name to Tianbao, but what does this have to do with Thirty-Balang?"

Gao Lishi told Li Longji about the fourteenth year of Tianbao when Li Xiu was in a coma.

"He not only can predict the future year number, but also knows that Weichen has many secrets, so Weichen concluded that he has the ability to communicate with ghosts and gods."

Li Longji's eyes were full of suspicion. Can his son really communicate with ghosts and gods after a serious illness?

Or did he secretly collude with the emperor before?

Li Longji ordered coldly: "Go and find Thirty-eight Lang!"

Gao Lishi knew Li Longji very well. At this moment, he suddenly realized that Li Xiu not only had to pass the regent, but also the emperor's level.

If you cannot win the faith of the emperor today, the consequences will be equally serious.

………….

Li Xiu sat alone in the corner. Today, in order to save himself, he acted too evilly and left hidden dangers for himself.

Li Xiu was still recalling the last sentence Li Chengqi said. He obviously made some point. Except for his father and a group of brothers, there would be no one else.

At the end, Li Xiu also saw the stern gaze of his father.

Suspicion! Li Xiu thought of this word and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Who said that time traveling through time is a good thing? Stand up for me and I promise not to beat him to death.

A eunuch walked forward quickly, "The Lord summoned Thirty-eight Langs!"

He quickly stuffed another note to Li Xiu and whispered: "This is what Mr. Gao gave it to you!"

Li Xiu stood up and quickly looked at the note, with only one sentence on it, "The Lord trusts Zhang Guo!"

Li Xiu immediately put the note in his mouth and swallowed it.

Zhang Guo is the old man of the Eight Immortals, a Taoist priest in Zhongtiaoshan. Just last year, Emperor Li Longji summoned him into the palace and had a secret conversation with him for several days. From then on, he believed in the Tao and sought immortality.

Li Xiu understood what Gao Lishi meant.

………….

"Reported to my father, my son's son was seriously ill, and he once left his body. He traveled all over the mountains overnight. He met an old Taoist priest on Zhongtiao Mountain and rode a donkey. He claimed that he was born in the early Sui Dynasty and had practiced and achieved enlightenment.

He said that he was thanked by his father and was named the Immortal Man. At the beginning of the year, he watched the astrological signs at night and said that his father was in trouble today and needed the assistance of his sons, so he passed on a skill to me."

"What kind of Taoist technique is passed on to you?"

When talking about Zhang Guo Lao, Li Longji's face really calmed down a lot.

"Borrowing ghosts and gods can give you a glimpse of the secrets of heaven!"

Li Longji watched the subtle changes in Li Xiu's expression. He could tell if his son lies.

After a moment, he said lightly: "Prove it to me!"

………….

In the secret room, Li Xiu was wearing his hair and feet, holding a bowl of wine in his left hand, holding a wooden sword in his right hand, and whispering a word, "The Supreme Lord is as anxious as the law, give me a pair of wise eyes! Let me see this for five hundred years clearly..."

Li Xiu was not prepared and didn't know what to say, even the lyrics were out.

There were two hundred taels of gold on the table beside him. He glanced at the corner of his eyes quickly and secretly regretted it in his heart. Why don’t you want three hundred taels?

Regret no matter how much regret it, but his mind was quickly recalling how those who danced the gods in his hometown did it?

He saw it with his own eyes when he was a child, but he couldn't remember it clearly, so he had to learn about the scenes of the great dancers in film and television.

Facing opposite him were the emperor Li Longji and the chief executive Gao Lishi of the Inner Palace. The two of them stared at Li Xiu's performance with wide eyes.

Li Xiu knew very well that it was useless to pretend to be a god and to win the trust of his father, he had to rely on his own wallet to display his power.

He shouted, "The secrets of heaven are leaked, and ghosts and gods can eliminate disasters!"

‘Puff!’ Squirt out a sip of wine on the gold, and a touch of the left hand, and two hundred taels of gold suddenly disappeared.

Li Longji and Gao Lishi suddenly widened their eyes. They saw clearly. Thirty-eight Lang waved his hand and the gold disappeared out of thin air, which shocked them both to the point of being stunned.

Li Xiu opened his eyes suddenly and shouted in a trembling and ethereal voice: "The Tang Dynasty has been in the 500th century!"

After calling him, he fell to the ground and his whole body twitched.

After a while, he stopped moving.

After a while, he slowly sat up, looking extremely tired.

"Thirty-eight Lang, how about it?" Gao Lishi stepped forward and asked with concern.

"What did I just say?"

"You just said... the five hundred years of the Tang Dynasty!"

"No wonder!"

Li Xiu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Li Longji: "My son was just warned by a strange voice that the royal affairs and the world's major events are unpredictable, otherwise they will violate the laws of heaven. Only this time, gold and silver will be useless next time, and it may be a waste of the life of the father."

Li Longji was still in extreme shock. The scene when ghosts and gods borrowed money to block the disaster just now made him believe that this son did have the ability to communicate with ghosts and gods, and did not collude with the emperor's brother in advance.

It seems that Zhang Guo is indeed using the power of Thirty-Balang to help him relieve his current disaster.

So can you predict the outcome of your power struggle with your brother in advance?

Li Longji thought about it and then rejected it again.

The five hundred years of the Tang Dynasty have revealed the secrets of heaven. If you continue, you may be punished by God.

He said to Gao Lishi again: "Only the three of us know about today's affairs, including Xiu'er, who can use ghosts and gods, must not be revealed."

"Please rest assured, your Majesty, my heart is like a mirror!"

"And you!"

Li Longji said to Li Xiu again: "You can't control the way of heaven, ghosts and gods. If you don't make any predictions in the future, you are my son. Not only will you be punished by God, but you will also implicate me. Do you understand?"

"My son remember!"

"Go! Go back and have a good rest. I will give you what you should give."

"My son is leaving!"

Li Xiu slowly stood up, bowed and left.

Gao Lishi knew that his notes played a role. Li Xiu used Zhang Guo's name to relieve the emperor's suspicion. This child is very wise!

However, his trick of ghosts and gods is indeed very beautiful.

Although Gao Lishi was very loyal, he and Li Xiu were now grasshoppers on the same rope, and they both committed suicide.

…………

A ox cart slowly drove out from Wangxian Gate, Li Xiu rode on a tall white horse, and an eunuch led the way for them.

Zhang Ping and Zhao Hu were carrying loads and following the ox cart. Although they were classified as palace guards, they were actually tragic servants in the palace and needed to go out of the palace with the little master.

The ox cart was placed with the emperor's vases and calligraphy and paintings, several porcelain vases from the official kilns and a set of tea sets from the official kilns. Although there were still no paintings from Yan Liben and Wu Daozi, there was a calligraphy from Ouyang Xun.

With the title, the decoration should be upgraded.

Of course, with the title, it would be a bit of a loss when you go out to sell things.

Gongsun Xiaomei was carrying a small cloth bag and sat happily at the door of the ox cart.

Of course, Li Xiu would not leave her to Li Cui, so he begged Gao Lishi and took her out of the palace to become his personal palace maid.

Li Xiu was even more energetic and also left the palace. The last time he was forced to leave the palace and was sent to the South Courtyard.

And this time I was proud. My brother had a title and left the palace to open a mansion.

With the title and the status of prince is restored, the title will naturally change.

Zhang Ping lowered his eyebrows and smiled happily: "Your Highness, your monthly money has increased to fifty taels, and you have a house and land. Please add some to me and Lao Zhao!"

"And there is me!"

Gongsun Xiaomei leaned out from the ox cart and said anxiously: "Brother Xiu, it's not right! Your Highness, I'll bring you tea and water, comb your hair and fold your quilt, I... I want to add money too!"

“Add them all!”

Li Xiu was in a good mood and waved his hand, "Zhang Ping Zhao Hu subsidized five silos every month, and Xiaomei's six silos."

Gongsun Xiaomei cheered, and Zhang Ping and Zhao Hu were even more smiling. They had three stakes of salary every month, and the little master added five stakes to them. Their income was almost the same as that of the county magistrate.

Gongsun Xiaomei was a little worried again, "Your Highness, we spend 16 guan a month. You have too little left, so why not add less!"
