After being dressed as Wu Zetian's daughter, she was favored by the group

Chapter 74 Good friend?

Who would have imagined that Li Zhi's chariot finally got to the outside of the city of Yanzhou, and the number of people seeing him off outside was several times more than that inside the city.

From the gate of the city to the outskirts, both sides of the official road are full of devout people.

Suddenly, a tall stone tablet was erected on the open space outside the city overnight, engraved with the disaster relief deeds of Li Zhi and Li Lingyue, father and daughter, during their trip to Guanzhong.

Different from the popular "Wanmin Umbrella" in the Qing Dynasty, during the Tang Dynasty, the way for the common people to express their gratitude and admiration to the local upright officials was usually to set up a stele of merit and virtue for future generations to look up to.

Li Zhi is the emperor of a country, and it is said that this kind of form is not needed, but if the people spontaneously build monuments to praise virtue, then his personality charm will definitely become a highlight in the historian's writing.

It has been more than [-] years since Li Zhi succeeded to the throne, and it is the first time that the common people erected a monument, how can he not be happy!
Excited, he immediately stopped the convoy, dragged Li Lingyue to the foot of the stele, and read the entire inscription word by word.

For the people's heartfelt gratitude, Li Zhi's eyes turned red, so much so that he took Li Lingyue to his car.

The father and daughter sat opposite each other, Li Zhi stared at his daughter and smiled from ear to ear!

"Aye, have you picked up the treasure yet? Why are you so silly!"

Li Lingyue felt uncomfortable being watched by Li Zhi, she rolled her eyes at her father, and felt that this little old man was cute and silly.

Eunuch Chen's nose was sweating: tsk tsk, after all, it is a daughter, except for the empress, I am afraid that in the whole Tang Dynasty, only this princess dared to joke like this with His Majesty.

"Hahahaha, you are my treasure! You are my treasure bestowed by God!"

Li Zhi was in a good mood, stroked his beard with his hands, and said triumphantly:

"I have decided. After returning to the palace, I will hold the most solemn canonization ceremony for you. I have even thought about the title! Hahahaha!"

Li Lingyue's heart skipped a beat!
No!Is it going to be canonized so soon?Is there a deviation in the trajectory of history?
If she remembers correctly, the time in history when she was conferred the title of "Taiping" should have happened when she was a child. The title of "Taiping" also came from the Taoist temple "Taiping Temple" where she became a monk.

Now the Taiping Temple doesn't exist yet, and I haven't become a monk to practice Taoism, so why is Aye going to be canonized now?

This... this is too illogical.

Seeing Li Lingyue in a daze, Li Zhi thought his daughter was immersed in surprise, and asked jokingly:

"What? I'm so happy that I can't speak!"

Li Lingyue complained incessantly, this is not happy, this is obviously frightened, okay?

"Aye, I don't know what title you set?"

When Li Lingyue asked about the idea, Li Zhi was even more pleased with himself, and actually sold it out.

"You will know when the time comes. I can guarantee that your mother will like the title I want!"

A title that even the picky Empress Wu would agree with must be 'Taiping'.

Li Lingyue felt her palms sweat a little, hesitated again and again, and finally asked a question that didn't fit the moment.

"Aye, the title you want is 'Taiping', right?!"

Li Zhi's eyes widened, and he looked at Li Lingyue in shock.

Sure enough, it is really peaceful!
From Li Zhi's expression, Li Lingyue already knew the answer!
There were mixed feelings in her heart, and she didn't know whether to be happy or worried!
If she had been conferred the title of 'Princess Taiping' in advance, then the wheel of history would have shifted, and some familiar people and events would no longer be within her prediction and control.

If there is a deviation in history, how should I blaze my own path?

Li Zhi grabbed Li Lingyue's hand, looked at her face carefully, and said in disbelief:

"Are you a fairy in the sky or my daughter? How could you guess what I'm thinking?"

Boo!I have to explain again.

Li Lingyue restrained her mind, sticking out her tongue on purpose, pretending to be unfathomable and smiling:
"Do you still need to guess? My daughter can figure it out by pinching her fingers. Now that the insect infestation has been calmed down and the refugees have been resettled, it is a scene of 'Taiping Wuxiang'. Two characters are used as a title, the name 'Wuxiang Princess' is not elegant enough, and it does not have enough meaning, while 'Princess Taiping' means the country is safe and the people are safe, and the world is peaceful, so this title is the most appropriate!"

Li Zhi couldn't help clapping his hands and applauding: "Not bad! My daughter is really smart, but...you're only half right!"

Guess half right?
Li Lingyue was shocked again!
Could it be that Dad is really going to build a Taoist temple for himself, name it Taiping Temple, and then drive him in to become a monk? This is the other half of the answer?

If Li Zhi didn't say anything, he couldn't ask him stupidly: "Aye, the other half is I want to become a monk of Taiping Temple, so I'm called Princess Taiping?" '

If you really asked this question, if you really went to Taiping Temple in the future, wouldn't you be...

Stop, you can't ask any more questions, or you will really become a monster of the prophet!
Li Lingyue can conclude: now that she is in Li Zhi's heart, she is Wu Meiniang's second, as long as she doesn't break the sky, Li Zhi will never drive her to become a monk.

So, this is certainly not the answer for the other half!

So what is the real answer?

who cares?This is not important at all. What is important is how to confer the title of Princess Taiping after becoming a monk. This is in line with the normal track of history.

"Aye! My daughter heard that the princess can eat three hundred households in the city. My daughter lives deep in the palace and has no worries about food and clothing. What do you want those fields for? Why don't you give them to ministers who have made great achievements to show Aye's benevolence? My daughter You are still young, so it won't be too late to confer the title in a few years later, I beg Aye for your permission!"

Li Lingyue bowed and tried her best to persuade Li Zhi to let the title of Princess Taiping come later.

Hearing this, Li Zhi was really emotional and a little moved!

But the next moment, he patted Li Lingyue's back lovingly, and said with great distress:
"At such a young age, I have shared Aye's worries everywhere. I am much better than your imperial brothers, but the more sensible you are, the more Aye feels indebted. When you return to the palace this time, Aye will order Si Tiantai and the Ministry of Rites to choose one." On an auspicious day, a canonization ceremony will be held for you, that's it!"

Boo!I shouldn't have handed over Yang Kuo's small treasury to you, lest you be so generous.

Li Lingyue had a slander in her heart, so she had no choice but to let it go!

Back in her car, Gong'er had already made tea, and Li Lingyue chose a comfortable sitting position, leaning against the car window, holding a cup of tea, and looking at the Chang'an Road on the way home.

After a long time, she was in a daze, without taking a sip of the tea in her hand, and Gong'er, who was playing the fan, couldn't help asking:
"Princess! We're going back to the palace soon, why don't you look happy at all?"

Li Lingyue still looked out of the window, with a wry smile on her face, and lamented to herself:

"Hey! What's there to be happy about? My princess has to kneel on the washboard when I go back. I don't know my lover. Do you miss me now or are you angry with me?"

As soon as the words came out, Gong'er opened her mouth wide in surprise: "Princess! The match you are talking about is..."

Li Lingyue put down the teacup in embarrassment, she felt emotional for a moment, she missed some words that she didn't want to say!

How should I go back?She straightened her sleeves and looked at Gong'er with a gentle face:

"What did the princess just say?"

"Princess, you said, you want to go back and kneel and rub your clothes..."

"Huh?" Li Lingyue let out a cold snort, her sharp gaze hit Gong'er's little heart, and the terrified little girl quickly kowtowed to the ground.

"Princess, Gong'er didn't hear anything! I don't know anything!"

"Hmm! That's right, my good lady, get up quickly!"

Like a big bad wolf threatening a little white rabbit, Li Lingyue picked up the cup of tea in satisfaction, took a sip, and her thoughts flew to the clouds again!
