Back to the early Tang Dynasty to be a fairy

Chapter 848 Excuse me, what should I do if I really summoned the soul back during the funeral?
When Li Shimin first heard that he was asked to help Li Yuan become a god, he refused!
Because he felt that it was hard for him to get the chance to be the emperor of Taiping. If Li Yuan also became a god, what if he came to compete with him for the position at that time.Just take a step back and say, even if the other party doesn't grab the position, does he, the Taiping emperor, have another immortal emperor on his head?

"Actually, Pindao knows what you mean, Your Highness King Qin..."

Seeing Qin Wang Li Shimin hesitate, Kong Qing had been keenly aware of the other party's thoughts, he lowered his voice and continued.

"After all, Your Highness is now in power for the first time, so naturally he doesn't want to be more restrictive, but if I want to do this, I'm just helping Your Highness to deal with some future troubles..."

"Oh……"

After hearing Kong Qing's words, Li Shimin was a little puzzled.

"Then Qingwei, tell me, what troubles do you have?"

"It's not in the right place!"

Although Kong Qing's voice was very low, it fell directly into Li Shimin's heart.

"Although Your Highness King Qin said that the assassination of His Majesty Li Yuan by King Yuanji of Qi may have something to do with the original Prince Jiancheng, this is just speculation. Your Highness has no real evidence in your hands, and it is inevitable that some people with ulterior motives will make trouble! "

"But isn't Saburo still in our hands?"

Li Shimin frowned slightly, and said in a low voice.

"San Langgu understands very well, as long as Gu can save his life, preserve his wealth, and ask him to recruit anything, he will recruit whatever..."

"This is useless!"

Kong Qing waved his hand lightly and said in a low voice.

"Under the so-called Three Trees, why can't you ask for it? Even if the King of Qi confessed that he was ordered by the prince, some people would say that His Highness was tortured into a trick, and even worse, they might say that Pindao and King Qin colluded with you to assassinate Your Majesty Li Yuan, and then planted the spoils on King Qi and the Crown Prince..."

"Humph!"

Li Shimin snorted coldly.

"Lonely, let's see which guy who is not afraid of death dares to say that..."

"Then King Qin, I'm afraid you will be disappointed..."

Kong Qing smiled and gave an example casually.

"The survivors of the former Sui Dynasty, the subordinates of the escaped prince Jiancheng, and even His Majesty Li Yuan's current high-ranking confidantes may not say the same in the future."

"..."

Li Shimin was silent for a while, and a cloud was cast over his originally cheerful face.

"So you can only pull Aye up from the underworld?"

"Your Highness, you don't have to do that either!"

Kong Qing spread his hands and said frankly.

"But in that case, you will have to face all kinds of rumors spreading about your patricide, and your explanation is a guilty conscience in the eyes of the rest of the people. If you suppress them by hand, you will be in a hurry... In short, the patricide You have to wear this hat first."

"call……"

Li Shimin closed his eyes and let out a long breath.

"Then Qingwei, what do you think Gu should do?"

"It's easy!"

Kong Qing shook the whisk in his hand and said with a smile.

"His Majesty Li Yuan was killed by an assassin, so he must not be able to become a god physically, but if he wants to use divine power to condense a body, it will require a lot of incense and wish power, and it is definitely not something that can be solved in a day and a half... Your Highness Do you understand now?"

"Gu seems to understand a little bit!"

Li Shimin blinked, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

"Qingwei, you are right, then do as you want!"

……

Funerals were a very important event in ancient times!

For example, in the "Book of Rites", it has recorded in detail where people should sit, what clothes to wear, how to cry, etc. at a funeral, which is very complicated and solemn.

Ordinary people are still like this, but the funeral after the emperor's death is even more different...

In the Sui and Tang dynasties, the first step after the death of the emperor was called "first and last", which was to put the emperor's body on the bed and place it in the main room, that is, the Tai Chi Hall, for the courtiers to look up and cry bitterly.

"Woooooooo..."

After Li Shimin defeated Li Jiancheng and returned, the funeral of the assassinated His Majesty Li Yuan finally got on the right track, and his bloody corpse, which was cut by the Poshan sword, was also scrubbed. At this time, he closed his eyes and lay peacefully in Tai Chi In the hall, it seemed to be in a deep sleep.

Under Majesty Dan, the people headed by Pei Ji and Li Shimin were kneeling on the ground neatly, crying loudly.

Because His Majesty Li Yuan's sacrificial ceremony is a major event in the country, Li Shimin did not let the current Minister of Rites Chen Shuda preside over it. Instead, he invited back the old minister of the three dynasties who had been recuperating at home because of his old age and infirmity. The former Minister of Rites, Li Gang, presided over His Majesty Li Yuan. ritual.

"The kneeling is over, all the officials are up!"

The white-haired Li Gang stood beside Dan Bi, trembling, his face full of solemnity.

"Response! Please waiter Chen Shuda come out!"

"promise!"

Chen Shuda agreed, and then walked out of his seat respectfully, and walked towards Majesty Dan, that is, the direction where His Majesty Li Yuan's bed was parked. When he was about to get to his seat, he He also solemnly took a set of His Majesty Li Yuan's crown from the servant on one side, which is the emperor's dress that His Majesty Li Yuan would only wear on the most solemn occasions.

After receiving the crown, Chen Shuda respectfully held it with both hands, walked to the bed where His Majesty Li Yuan's body lay, opened his mouth solemnly and shouted.

"His Majesty Li Yuyuan, Emperor Daxing, has returned in soul!"

That's right!

This so-called restoration ceremony is actually after the death of the emperor, the important ministers such as the prime minister hold the crown and summon the emperor's soul.

After Chen Shuda shouted His Majesty Li Yuan's name three times in a row, he raised his hand and threw the crown in his hand onto His Majesty Li Yuan's bed.Immediately afterward, a servant stepped forward to pick up the crown and laid it neatly on His Majesty Li Yuan's body.

Seeing that Chen Shuda had finished summoning his soul, Li Gang continued to shout tremblingly.

"Repeat! Servant Shangshu please shoot Xiao Yu out!"

"promise!"

After hearing Li Gang's words, Xiao Yu also walked out of her team respectfully...

The ritual of evoking the soul of the emperor required five important ministers to conjure the soul in turn. After Xiao Yu finished, it was Prime Minister Yang Gongren's turn, and after Yang Gongren finished, it was Sikong Pei Ji's turn.

"Woooooooo..."

Pei Ji held the crown in his hand, and looked at the face of his good friend for many years, and suddenly felt sad, and burst into tears, and for a while, he was so choked up that he couldn't even speak clearly.

"Emperor Daxing... woo woo woo... Your majesty... Li... woo woo... Yu Yuan... Hun... woo woo back!"

After finally waiting for Pei Ji's three soul callings, Li Gang called out the fifth and most important candidate for the soul calling.

"Repeat! Please come out, His Royal Highness King Qin!"

"promise!"

After hearing Li Gang's words, Li Shimin clasped his fists respectfully and saluted like everyone else, then walked out of the line, took the crown from the servant's hand, and walked towards His Majesty Li Yuan's body with a serious face.

"Aye, the soul is back!"

Following Li Shimin's first call out of the soul, suddenly a chilly wind blew in directly from the gate of the Tai Chi Hall, which made the bodies of these civil and military ministers present feel cold.

"Aye, the soul is back!"

Following Li Shimin's second sound of summoning the soul.Almost all the lights in the Tai Chi Hall popped, and a lantern exploded. The ministers of civil and military affairs present could vaguely hear footsteps coming in from the gate of the Tai Chi Hall.

Feeling this terrifying scene, some ministers who were less courageous began to tremble a little!

"Aye, the soul is back!"

Following Li Shimin's third call to the soul, a dark wind suddenly blew up, blowing the eyes of these ministers at the end of the Tai Chi Hall.

1 minutes later, when the dark wind dissipated, these ministers opened their eyes again, and they suddenly found a transparent His Majesty Li Yuan with a little golden light in his body standing next to his corpse with a complex expression, looking down. looking at the dead self.

"..."

Although it was said that this ceremony was for summoning souls, when the soul of His Majesty Li Yuan was actually recalled, the civil and military ministers present were still shocked.

'It turns out that conjuring souls can really bring back souls. The ancients were sincere and not deceived...what a ghost! '

'Who has ever heard of the spiritual conjuration at the funeral that really recruited the soul! '

Seeing the transparent His Majesty Li Yuan strolling back and forth beside his corpse, all the ministers present were in a dazed state, and even Li Gang, who presided over the ceremony, was a little at a loss.

'Excuse me, the soul-calling ceremony at the funeral really brought back the soul, how about the next ceremony? '

While the other ministers were still at a loss, Li Shimin was the first to rush up, and knelt down in front of the transparent Li Yuan with a bang, tears streaming down his face.

"Aye! Are you really back?"

"Nonsense! Who else could it be if it wasn't me..."

The transparent Li Yuan turned his head, glared at Li Shimin angrily, and then turned his gaze to the ministers who were dumbfounded by his presence.

"What are you still doing in a daze? It's time to bury the coffin, where is the horn... Hurry up and bring the horn, and open my mouth... There is still rice soup, have you cooked the rice soup? Hurry up and bathe and change clothes for me , do you just let me lie here like this?"

After hearing Li Yuan's words, all the ministers present had extremely weird expressions on their faces, the kind that wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and wanted to cry but couldn't cry, while Li Gang, who presided over the ceremony, hurriedly beat him with his hands. He thumped his chest and shouted calmly.

"Respect heaven and ancestors, mortuary, wedge teeth!"

After hearing his words, several servants hurried forward, pried open His Majesty Li Yuan's mouth with a smooth thing like a dagger made of bones, and then pressed it against the mouth of the jade beads buried with him in the future. Something like that is stuffed in.

"Aye!"

Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan with tears in his eyes.

"I still have something I want to tell you..."

"Not in a hurry!"

Li Yuan answered casually while watching the servants prying his mouth with bone daggers.

"Let's talk about it in detail after the setup is reset, hurry up and do things now, don't let me miss the auspicious time... Idiot! Don't pry so hard, what if you scratch my mouth!"

"..."

Li Shimin blinked and remained silent.

After this step was over, Li Gang had adjusted his mentality again, and then shouted.

"Bather and get dressed, attack!"

Following the words, several servants with their heads bowed brought up a bucket of rice soup that had just boiled for a long time, and placed it next to His Majesty Li Yuan's body, and then stepped forward to undress and scrub His Majesty Li Yuan.

"and many more!"

The transparent His Majesty Li Yuan pointed at these servants angrily.

"Who allowed you rough-handed guys to mess with my clothes, Erlang, go to the inner garden and call out Zhang Jieyu and Yin Defei, and ask them to bathe and change my clothes!"
