Li Yuan's voice can't be heard below. However, Liu Hongji immediately asked the heralds to wave flags and convey the orders of the saints to the guards under the wall.
When the guards saw the flag, they immediately cried out: ”the sage orders the body to be flat and exempt from ceremony.”
The people cried out in unison: ”thank saint.”
However, they stood up one after another. Some of them knew how to bow their heads, and some of them did not know etiquette. They still looked up at the wall, but no one dared to point with their fingers.
Li Yuan waved his hand excitedly, and his ministers were also full of glory. With this passage, no historian will easily belittle Li Yuan's cultural, political and military achievements. As an emperor, Li Yuan was able to make achievements without the assistance of ministers. The ministers are naturally proud and full of glory.
It can be said that everyone is happy and the whole world is celebrating.
Pei Ji excitedly said: ”yashengyun, the time, the place and the people are in harmony. Auspiciousness in this world is the time of the day. It is the geographical location that we can plant high yield in the Tang Dynasty. Now all the people gather together and spontaneously call for long live in return for the holy grace. It is human harmony. All of these three, why worry about the prosperity of Tang Dynasty? Congratulations to the sage. ”
At the same time, the ministers also responded: ”congratulations to the sage!”
Li Yuan was so happy with his smile that he said, ”I have this day, which is the result of all the ministers' wholehearted assistance. I will share this grand event with all the ministers. ”
”First of all, the sage accepted the admonition with an open mind, and Fang Youchen and other officials tried their best to help. The sage is wise
”Sage is wise!”
Li Yuan and his officials held each other with a good understanding. However, when this kind of jubilant and contented time, it is not surprising that the monarch and the minister flatter each other. Human nature is understandable.
”To the sage, the representative of the people has arrived.”
Li Yuan then took back his waving hand and left the city wall. The people under the city, some of them were brave and good, and cried out: ”send off the sage, Saint Wan'an!”
When Li Yuan heard this, he couldn't close his mouth. On the way down the city wall, all the people were smiling and happy. There were many ministers with the same expression as Li Yuan, and they were all very happy.
Inside the city gate, there are three representatives presented by the common people:
there are old people with white hair and crutches, middle-aged people dressed as Confucian scholars, and peasant men dressed as farmers.
”Grassroots worship saints, sage blessing.”
As soon as they saw Li Yuan coming down, they all did not dare to take a look and fell down. Li Yuan said, ”no ceremony, no body. Come on, go and help the elder up. ”
”Here it is.”
Immediately a little yellow door came forward to help the old man up. Confucian scholars and farmers also rose up, bowed their heads and stood aside respectfully.
Li Yuan asked kindly, ”how long is the longevity of the elderly?”
The old man with white hair said: ”in front of the sage, I dare not say that he has a long life. The grass people are already 70-3 years old this year.”
Li Yuan said with a smile: ”the elderly live a long life, worthy of the name. Can they still eat?”
The old man with white hair said: ”Hui sage, although the grassroots are old and decadent, they can still eat two cakes per meal. Their ears are bright and their eyes are clear, and they are still healthy.”
”Good! The elderly are blessed. ”
Li Yuan is chatting with the old man with a smile. After asking the old man, he also asked the Confucian scholar, ”can this Confucian son have a good reputation?”
