Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 160 Three Long Live
"Clap clap clap!"

In addition to King Qin, Li Gang, Xiao Yu and others also clapped their hands with wat boards to express their approval.Xue Lang didn't move, but continued to advise the saint: "Please move the saint!"

The prince glanced at Xue Lang, bowed and raised the wat board and said: "The saint is in danger, and he is attached to the country. When can't he gather the hearts of the people and the people's popularity? Why risk his life? If there are people with ulterior motives mixed in, the consequences will be disastrous. Xue Lang, may I ask whether the safety of the saints is more important or the gathering of the people's hearts and minds?"

Xue Lang said: "Where is there anything foolproof in the world? It is the danger of choking, stuffy, and cold when drinking water and sleeping! However, a man should do something and not do something. The so-called waste of food because of choking, could it be that the sage rebelled against Taiyuan in the first place?" Wasn’t the tyranny of the former Sui Dynasty not in danger? It’s just where righteousness lies, even if there are tens of thousands of people, I will go there!”

"Papapa"——

"it is good!"

There was another clap of wat boards, and intermittent applause.Xue Lang continued: "The people gather and the personnel are complicated. In order to avoid stampede accidents and good things turning into bad things, the sage is also asked to send all the guards in the southern Yamen to maintain order, go up to the gate of the inner city, and let the people worship. Several representatives, the sage spoke to them in order to listen to the voices of the people and show our image of a sage who loves and cares for the people.”

The king of Qin was the first to agree: "Xue Zhiyi's words are reasonable, and the minister seconded the opinion, please move the sage!"

Most of the ministers also agreed: "Please move the sage!"

A faint smile appeared on Li Yuan's face, and he nodded.The prince cast a vague look at Xue Lang, with no expression of joy or anger, bowed and said: "Sage, the people gathered outside, for the sake of safety, please send the guards of the Nanya to maintain order, and inform the people about the selection of representatives."

Li Yuan nodded and nodded: "Yes."

Immediately wrote down the warrant, and sent an order to mobilize all the guards in the Nanya to go out of the palace to maintain order.Of course, Beiya Yuan from the imperial army followed the saint to protect the safety of the saint.

Li Yuan glanced at Xue Lang with satisfaction, and asked: "Xue Qing's memorandum will be discussed tomorrow. My son in Pingyang is as accurate as ever in knowing and employing people. Xue Qing is courageous, insightful, knowledgeable and talented. A pillar of talent."

Xue Lang hurriedly thanked him: "I have little talent and little learning, so I don't dare to bear the words of a sage."

Li Yuandao: "Yesterday when Li Qing entered the palace to give a report, he recommended Xue Qing to me. He said that Xue Qing was good at farming, the four seasons, not to mention good at calculation, but also good at military affairs. He is a man of good morals. From what I have seen today, Xue Qing is not weaker than others in politics, such a talent, how can I let him go? Even if I am Aye, I can only be thick-skinned and ask for someone in Pingyang!"

Xue Lang was waiting to refuse, when Xiao Huangmen came to report, all the guards of the Nanya have arrived to maintain order at the gate of the inner city.Too busy to talk about whether to stay in Chang'an, Xue Langzuo asked: "Please move the sage!"

Li Yuan laughed loudly and said: "Yes! Xue Qing has stated his interests again and again, so I should move away. Otherwise, wouldn't I become a foolish emperor? Come, someone, and set up the gate of the inner city."

"Here!"

Li Yuan, who was dressed in a uniform, walked in front, followed by a group of ministers, filing out.Outside the hall, Yuan Cong's forbidden army in armor and holding a halberd is already in order, and Hou is outside the door with a clean military appearance.

When Li Yuan came out, a strong servant immediately carried the shoulder chariot, and carried Li Yuan to the gate of the inner city.Not only the sage Li Yuan, but also the elderly ministers, Li Yuan also had his shoulder chariot carried, and carried them to the inner city gate.

As for the young courtiers...except for the crown prince and the king of Qin who are of high status and can ride on the shoulder chariot, the others...Excuse me, let's all run forward.

Fortunately, we only need to run to Xiama Bridge.When they arrived at Xiama Bridge, the sage, the crown prince, and the king of Qin changed carriages, and the ministers and military officials rode horses, while civil servants sat in sedan chairs, and went to the inner city gate together.

Xue Lang was still out of breath even when he got on the horse, and he was already out of breath when he got off the Maqiao. If he ran to the gate of the inner city... Damn it, the marathon is not so far away!The picture is simply too beautiful, just thinking about it makes me feel terrified.

The horse that Xue Lang rode was a specially selected docile mare. Even if Xue Lang was not good at riding, he would still be able to trot slowly to keep up with the team.

All the way to the gate of the inner city, the saint hadn't got out of the chariot when two middle-aged men dressed as generals came forward: "I pay homage to the saint, all blessings to the saint."

The sage lifted the curtain of the chariot and asked, "Shunde, Hongji, how is the situation?"

As soon as Xue Lang heard the names, he knew that these two were Changsun Shunde and Liu Hongji. At this time, one of them was leading the left Xiaowei, and the other was leading the right Xiaowei. They were generals.

Changsun Shunde said: "Sage, after the two guards maintained order, the people have become more orderly, but they are still begging to see the saint. The last general has sent a messenger to order the people to elect representatives to meet the saint."

Li Yuan praised "goodness", got off the imperial chariot, and waited for the representatives of the people to come to see him.The people gathered outside the door suddenly became louder, as if they knew the saint was coming.Faintly, it seemed that someone was shouting words such as long live the saint and all blessings the saint.

Not only Xue Lang heard it, but Li Yuan and all the officials heard it.Li Yuan's face was uncertain, and he asked repeatedly: "Can you hear the family? What are the people outside the door shouting?"

All the ministers looked at each other, the shouts outside the door had become louder, more orderly, and clearer——

"Long live the saint! Long live the saint! Long live the saint!"

Now, everyone heard clearly.The expressions on the faces of all the officials were in disbelief, which was basically the same as the expression on the face of the sage. Li Yuan was both surprised and happy, with a little bit of disbelief: "Come on! Go and investigate quickly, but outside the door The people are calling me long live!"

"Here!"

The guards lead off.After a while, they came back and forth: "Report to the saint, the people outside the city know that the saint is here, feel the saint's kindness, and worship the saint together, three times long live!"

The king of Qin immediately said: "I invite the sage to go to the gate of the city, so that the people can see the sage."

"Invite the saint to the city gate!"

The ministers immediately seconded.Li Yuan is not a pure idiot either, so he naturally understands the benefits, and nodded with a smile: "Sure. Today's grand event is not the glory of me alone, and it should be shared with all your lords. All your families, go to the city gate with me, let me The people of the Tang Dynasty look at you heroes."

"Here!"

Everyone looked beaming and proud, followed the saint Li Yuan, and climbed to the city gate together——

Although there are no equipment such as tweeters and amplifiers in this era, there are ancient methods.As soon as the sage Li Yuan came to the gate of the city, a soldier drew his bow and shot a loud arrow, nine arrows in a row!
Nine howls of arrows resounded through the sky, causing all the people gathered under the city to look up——

Li Yuan, dressed in the emperor's crown costume, appeared on the city wall, very conspicuous.The people who raised their heads saw it immediately, and after a moment of noise, they knelt down spontaneously and shouted in louder, louder, and more respectful voices:
"Long live the saint! Long live the saint! Long live the saint! Long live the saint!"

One after another, one louder than the other, three times in a row!

"Good! Good! Good!"

The sage's face was flushed with excitement, the red light couldn't be covered by his beard, and his wrinkles appeared from his smile. He subconsciously shouted: "Peace! All citizens, please be free!"
