It would be strange to know.
Shen Yi smiled in his heart.
He kept his expression unchanged and said slowly, "I am in charge of the Divine Heaven Jade Purity Palace. I decide life and death, prosperity and decline, fortune and disaster, slay demons and monsters, command thunder and lightning, illuminate the great way of the heart of heaven, and relieve the suffering of the underworld. So, you should know the reason why I came to the mortal world."
Li Shimin's body shook violently.
Li Chunfeng also opened his eyes wide with a look of horror.
It's just a title, and it's hard to have an intuitive feeling about it.
But the responsibility comes.
I immediately understood what kind of immortal king was in front of me! Thunder is the pivot of yin and yang, and the root of commanding all things!
There has been a saying since ancient times that those who do evil will be struck by thunder from heaven.
To put it in more detail, it means not caring about specific things, but having the power to kill everything.
Big things like life and death, small things like withering and flourishing! Such an immortal king, with such power and position, not to mention Li Shimin, an emperor on earth who has not been recognized by heaven, even if he is personally appointed by heaven, he can still be convicted of a crime and sentenced to death by thunder!
Think again about the recent rumors in which an immortal asked the people about the merits and demerits of this dynasty.
Li Shimin already understood it completely.
Immortal Lord, this is to see whether he, the emperor, is guilty or not!
I immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
Li Shimin's mood now was the same as those officials who were investigated by the Dushuijian. He was anxious and worried that he might have made mistakes in the past and would be found out and punished.
But for Li Shimin.
He believed that the biggest mistake he had ever made was killing his brothers and seizing the throne.
If the Immortal King wanted to punish him for this reason, he would not even have the chance to defend himself.
Thinking of this, I became more and more frightened.
Li Shimin bowed his head again and shouted: "Shimin knows that I came to the throne unjustly and it goes against the principles of heaven and earth, but there is nothing I can do about it. Moreover, since I took the throne, I have been trembling with fear and taking the prosperity of the world as my responsibility. I dare not be lazy in the slightest. I hope the Immortal Lord will understand!"
His guards, including the Taoists, trembled slightly when they heard this.
The position is not right!
Anyone who dared to say this word would be guilty of a capital crime. Even though everyone knew about the Xuanwu Gate Incident, no one dared to talk about it.
It is almost the biggest taboo of this dynasty.
But now, it was His Majesty the Emperor himself who said it.
If the immortal wanted to punish or even kill the emperor in this way, let alone these Taoist priests, even these loyal guards, who would dare to stop him, and who could stop him? In front of the immortal, the imperial power was so insignificant.
"Killing one's brothers is indeed a crime that cannot be forgiven lightly."
Shen Yi's words were just a faint sound, but when they reached Li Shimin's ears, it was like a bolt from the blue.
His face even turned pale for a moment.
Even when facing evil spirits before, he was not as desperate as he is now.
Empress Changsun also looked extremely pale.
"Of course..." Shen Yi didn't stop talking, he continued, "I came to the mortal world, but not for this reason. In this mortal world, the den of ghosts has been opened, a catastrophe is coming, and all lives are in ruins. Since you have the power of an emperor, I will give you a chance to make amends."
At this moment, Li Shimin finally couldn't help but take a deep breath. He felt like he was being pulled out of the water when he was about to drown.
Although still in the water, I finally had a chance to catch my breath.
He immediately bowed his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Immortal Lord. Shimin will do his best."
Shen Yi knew.
By now, he has truly got Li Shimin under his control.
The first stage is completed.
In the name of an immortal, Shen Yi took over the "highest position" of the entire Tang Dynasty without using weapons. No matter how unwilling Li Shimin was, he had to obey, because from the moment he knelt down, from the moment he admitted that he "did not get the position right", even if Shen Yi killed him directly, it would not trigger a backlash from the entire Tang Dynasty.
The next step is to formally take over.
"I will gather all the officials tomorrow and make public the cause of this catastrophe." Shen Yi left this last sentence and once again took the other four people and soared into the sky.
"Farewell, Immortal Lord!"
All the Taoists looked at them with fanaticism.
And Li Shimin also shouted the same thing.
He stared at the long rainbows disappearing into the horizon. There was confusion, fear, and panting in his eyes, which were extremely complicated.
Ever since he entered the palace, he had never thought that he would still face such a frightening day.
He knelt for a long time until the rainbow could no longer be seen.
Empress Changsun then carefully helped Li Shimin up.
Looking at his expression, I didn't know how to comfort him.
But in the end.
Instead, it was Li Shimin who spoke first.
"Masters." He looked at Li Chunfeng and the others. "The Immortal Lord's coming to the world is a blessing for our Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, in the catastrophe, our Tang Dynasty would be devastated. Although I, Li Shimin, have made mistakes before, I am fortunate to have the Immortal Lord's forgiveness. I hope that you will continue to support me in the future."
"Your Majesty, you are too kind!" Li Chunfeng bowed his head and bent his waist. "In the face of this catastrophe, our Taoist sect will do its best!"
His words were even more respectful than before.
But it’s more like showing respect to Li Shimin.
It is better to say that it is a sign of respect for the immortal king in heaven.
They were here just now and heard it all clearly. The Immortal Lord said that Li Shimin was guilty, but he also said that he had the ability to be an emperor and gave him a chance to make amends.
In other words.
As long as the Immortal King does not punish Li Shimin, Li Shimin's throne as emperor is appointed by the Immortal King!
This is for Taoism.
The emperor who was recognized by the immortals was many times more noble than the previous emperor! "In this case, I would like to thank you in advance." Li Shimin smiled slightly, "Everyone go back and rest. The immortal king is much more useful than the so-called Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Formation. No matter how many evil spirits there are, they dare not appear again."
"Yes, yes." Li Chunfeng blushed and lowered his head.
If an immortal had not descended to the world tonight, all of them would have died here.
Even Li Chunfeng was a little worried.
The precious books that they kept privately turned out to be useless, and when the Immortal King came to the world before, he didn't even look at them, his "disciples". Could it be that all the books and words circulating in the sect were false?
He has made up his mind.
Immediately tell the entire Taoist sect what happened tonight.
And after everyone dispersed.
Li Shimin and Empress Changsun also returned to the room.
Just as the door closed.
Li Shimin could no longer conceal his expression, and even his legs felt a little weak. Fortunately, Empress Changsun supported him in time.
