I preached in the Six Dynasties

Chapter 383 Chixiao
Li Shimin did not summon Li Yu into the palace, he came to Xuandu Temple by himself.

Some things should not be known to outsiders, for example, Li Yu helped him eliminate the empress' misfortune.

If it gets out, no one in the Tang Dynasty can do it, and a person from the Song Dynasty will be asked to help, which will damage the prestige of the great country.

Moreover, everything related to the empress' misfortune is a top secret of the Tang Dynasty, only Li Shimin and a few confidantes know about it.

Although Li Shimin hadn't arrived yet, there were already dozens of eagle and dog guards in the Xuandu Temple, and all the masters of the temple were present.

Li Yu looked around and pouted secretly. He didn't bring the Wushun sisters over, and waited for Li Shimin alone.

A small zigzag bridge crosses the clear pond, and several water lilies are reflected in the surrounding houses. Li Yu is on this small bridge, waiting for Li Shimin's arrival.

Soon, Li Shimin arrived with two guards. When he saw Li Yu, he spat hard before stepping over.

"The foreign minister, Li Yu, has met His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

Li Shimin collected his emotions, smiled sincerely and straightforwardly, and said loudly: "Isn't this a serious Taoist leader, please hurry up, you have made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, and I also want to thank you."

If he hadn't seen his expression just now, Li Yu would have almost believed it.

He said with a smile: "It's all thanks to His Majesty's great blessings. The poor can live up to their mission. How dare you be greedy for merit."

"I had already set up a big banquet in the palace at that time, unexpectedly the Taoist priest left without saying goodbye, which made me very regretful."

Are you throwing a serious royal banquet?
I'm afraid it's not the Hongmen Banquet, right?
Li Yu bent down slightly, and confessed: "Your Majesty doesn't know something. Pindao still has one step that he didn't do at that time. He will come to see His Majesty only after the troubles of this matter are completely eliminated."

Li Shimin looked around, only his two personal guards, he lowered his voice, and asked, "Then how did you deal with the empress's veins?"

Li Yu shook his head and said: "Ah? Is there any other way to talk about Qimai? The poor Taoist just kept in the Taoist temple, like the Patriarch of the Three Qing Dynasty, stating His Majesty's moral achievements, hoping that God can help Datang eliminate this disaster. In the end, the minister's words and Your Majesty's virtue has moved the heavens, and this has lifted this calamity."

Li Shimin's face darkened, this grandson is too good at talking, how should he refute?

Could it be that if he usurped the throne of his father, beheaded his brothers, and occupied his sister-in-law, he couldn't move God at all?
can't
Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the Taoist priest really took great pains, it was really hard work."

"Doing things for a wise king like His Majesty, the poor don't find it hard."

Li Shimin caressed the railing on the bridge, exerted a little force with his fingers, and left a fingerprint on the wood.

This kind of action can be hidden from others, but of course it cannot be hidden from Li Yu.

He secretly reminded himself that he can no longer be poor with him, and don't piss him off.

Li Shimin is also a battle-hardened emperor. The founding emperors of the Six Dynasties, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Ce, Zhao Kuangyin and Zhu Yuanzhang, were all fought on horseback.

Li Shimin was not the founding emperor, but he led the troops to fight several vicious battles in the establishment of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Yu took a step forward, and the two hawks immediately drew their knives, Li Shimin stretched out his hand to stop them.

Li Yu said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the poor have something important to report to His Majesty."

"It's okay, these are my confidantes."

Li Yu nodded and said, "Your Majesty, do you know about the changes in Maoling a few days ago?"

"Mao Ling?"

Li Shimin's expression became serious. He attached great importance to the matter of Maoling.

It's a pity that so many people were waiting there, and the tomb robbers from Maoling didn't come out. The Tang people only thought that they died there too.

Li Yu pretended to be mysterious, and said nervously: "Your Majesty doesn't know that Maoling was dug up, and the gang of thieves still escaped unscathed."

Li Shimin's face was gloomy. Although Maoling was the mausoleum of the emperor of the Han Dynasty, it is now on the land of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin has long classified it as the property of the Tang Dynasty.

Who dares to dig Maoling is as bad as stealing the Tang treasury in Li Shimin's heart.

It was even worse, because the wealth in Maolingli, conservatively estimated, was several times that of the Tang treasury.

After all, Datang's treasury costs money, and the annual income and expenditure are almost balanced. Although Li Shimin has a lot of income, Li Shimin is a promising and wise monarch, and he has done many great things during his tenure.

Every piece, every piece, costs money.

But Maoling is different. When the Han Dynasty was at its strongest, most of the country's income was spent every year to fill it in.

Everyone knows that Maoling is a mountain of gold and silver, with treasures as numerous as sand, but no one can enter.

It's okay if they can't get in, but once someone gets in, it's like a piece of flesh has been gouged out of Li Shimin's heart, which makes him feel very distressed.

Li Shimin's face sank like water, but there was no trace of anger on his face.

"How did you know?"

Li Yu chuckled, and said, "Those thieves did not keep secrets. When one of them sold the stolen goods, it was received by my disciples."

Li Yu turned over his palm and took out a red sword.

Li Shimin's eyes lit up, staring at the sword, his eyes gradually became fanatical.

"Chi Xiao?"

Li Yu smiled and said, "Your Majesty has good eyesight!"

It is rumored that Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, got a rusty iron rod from nowhere and told others that it was a sword obtained from an immortal in Nanshan, and its name was Chixiao.

No one believed him at the time, until one day, Liu Bang and his men met a white snake in Fengze.

Liu Bang turned into a red dragon, merged with the sword, cut off with one sword, and the white snake was killed, revealing his true colors, it turned out to be a dragon.

Since then, the Chixiao Sword has become the sword of Han Emperor Liu Bang.

The Han Dynasty, throughout its life, had a close relationship with dragons.

After his death, the sword was passed down from generation to generation. When Emperor Wu arrived, he didn't intend to pass it on to his son, and was buried in Maoling.

As soon as the Scarlet Heaven Sword came out, there were bursts of dragon chant, which could not be imitated at all.

That trace of dragon aura reminded Li Shimin that when he, Li Yuan, and the heroes were slaying the five-clawed golden dragon in the Great Barren Mountain, that animal's aura was like this.

Li Shimin didn't continue to ask about Chi Xiaojian, he asked in a concentrated voice: "Who dug Maoling?"

Li Yu said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, if the news of Pindao is revealed, it will offend people who dare not offend."

Li Shimin smiled and said: "I know, what conditions do you want?"

"Pindao and Wu Shun, the daughter of the samurai, are in love with each other, and they want to bring their family to Bianliang to live together."

"Yes." Li Shimin agreed immediately without any hesitation.

Li Yu was overjoyed, stepped forward and said: "This Chixiao Sword, I would like to dedicate it to Your Majesty!"

Li Shimin waved his hand and asked one of his eagle dogs to put away the sword.Although Chi Xiao is famous, it is actually of little use. It is likely that Liu Bang and the Dragon Clan reached an agreement back then, and the Chi Xiao sword is just a pretext.

To him, the reserved warrior Xun is even more useless. If there is any use, it is to vent his anger.

He still doesn't know whether the Queen's Evil deserves to be the daughter of the warrior Xun.

Because Li Yu was in Lizhou, acting upside down, and the people from Datang didn't catch up with any key occasions.

Now that the queen's calamity has been solved, these things are not important anymore.

"I don't see that you are still a lover, can you say it now?" The daughter of the warrior Xun is very beautiful, Li Shimin has also heard of this.Li Yu flirted with her in Lizhou, and had been reported countless times by spies.

Li Yu sighed, and said: "Your Majesty, they are from Fang La, Qingxi Cave, Jiangnan Dao. Fang La's Nine Suns magical skills are invincible in the world, and ten poor Taoists are no match. I hope Your Majesty will keep it a secret."

PS: The editor has gone to sleep. It is estimated that it will be changed tomorrow. It is not intentional. After much deliberation, I can only reopen the full subscription group and upload a side story to make up for it.

For specific things, I will tell you about the plan tomorrow.
