Chapter 336: An Emperor of All Ages
The Great Tang Empire, 20 years of rule, spring.
In the city of Chang'an.
After twenty years of Ye Qing's hard work, the Tang Empire's national power has reached its peak, and this point can be intuitively understood after entering Chang'an City.
Chang'an City is full of flowers, a model of the combination of classical and modern. There are many high-rise buildings in the city, heavy traffic, pedestrians, and all nations come to court.
At this time, Chang'an City, with a population of tens of millions, is the well-deserved number one city in the world and the center of the world's economy, politics, and culture.
Chang'an is located in the Guanzhong area. At this time, after long-term logging, the Guanzhong area already has sparse green shade and yellow sand all over the sky. However, under the radiation of Saint Ye Qing, Chang'an City is full of aura, but it has become a fairyland on earth, with green mountains and green waters everywhere, birds singing and flowers fragrant.
It has also changed the climate in the north, becoming warm and humid, and the four seasons are like spring. It has the reputation of plugging the south of the Yangtze River.
Ordinary gods are aloof, treat mortals like ants, and care about karma, at most they preach to the world and collect incense. There are very few gods like Ye Qing who use various direct and indirect means to benefit the people of the world.
Foreign countries call Ye Qing "Emperor of Heaven" and "Emperor of Immortals", but people in Tang Dynasty like to call Ye Qing "Holy Emperor". It is recognized that Ye Qing's achievements have surpassed the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and Ye Qing's culture and education have surpassed all the sages. Therefore, adding the holy character and the emperor character together, respect Ye Qing as "Holy Emperor".
Ye Qing's prestige in the Great Tang Empire was also unprecedented, and he was the most popular among the monarchs of all dynasties, because Ye Qing really made the people of the entire Great Tang Empire gain glory, money, and status. Under the leadership of Ye Qing, the people of Tang ruled the world and overwhelmed all nations.
At this time, the people of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty hurried towards the Yellow River, wanting to witness the scene of the Yellow River clearing up, wanting to witness Ye Qing's last miracle.
As early as a month ago, there was news from the imperial court that His Majesty's literary and martial arts had reached an unprecedented level in all dynasties, and he had done great merit to the world, so he was about to ascend to the sky and become an immortal emperor.
Regarding this matter, the people of Datang firmly believed in it, because Ye Qing's greatness had already surpassed the Jade Emperor in their minds. Ye Qing wanted to replace the Jade Emperor as the Heavenly Emperor, but it was what the people wanted, and all the people felt that with Ye Qing's achievements, only the Heavenly Emperor could match him.
As for the Jade Emperor, I have never heard of it, never seen it, let alone know it.
"Before His Majesty the Holy Emperor decides to leave the world, he will solve the problem of flooding in the Yellow River, clarify the Yellow River, and then meditate in His Highness the Crown Prince."
"It's such a pity. His Majesty the Holy Emperor loves the people like a son. He has a great talent. The changes in the past twenty years in the Tang Dynasty are better than the changes in the thousand years since the Three Emperors and Five Emperors. Such a Holy Emperor will leave us."
"Your Majesty, the Holy Emperor, is not leaving us, but God is the emperor, ruling the world. When the time comes, His Majesty the Holy Emperor will be the Emperor of Heaven, and our Tang Dynasty will be the Dynasty of Destiny, the unparalleled dynasty in the world, and our Great Tang will surely flourish forever , the weather will always be smooth, the country will live in peace and the people will be safe!"
The citizens of Chang'an discussed and arrived at the bank of the Yellow River by taking advanced means of transportation such as cars, buses, and subways. On the bank of the Yellow River, there are already 20,000 Tianshi soldiers armed with submachine guns, defending Ye Qing's safety.
It's not that Ye Qing is arrogant and unwilling to be close to the people, but because the white dragon fish suits and dies as a fisherman, the emperor must have the majesty of the emperor.
Civil and military officials stood by the river, kowtowed to Ye Qing, and shouted: "Your Majesty the Holy Emperor, live forever!"
"Everyone loves you." Ye Qing got up and walked to the bank of the Yellow River, his voice spread throughout the Tang Empire with great power, "Since I ascended the throne 20 years ago, I have worked hard to rule and finally realized the long-term stability of the Tang Empire. , the people of the Great Tang also live and work in peace and contentment, and the national power of the Great Tang is growing day by day, flourishing day by day. This is an unprecedented prosperity!"
"His Majesty the Holy Emperor is the emperor of all ages!"
The officials sang praises.
"Eternal Emperor!"
"Eternal Emperor!"
"Eternal Emperor!"
The 400 million people of the Great Tang Empire shouted in unison, their strong humanity turned into streaks of purple energy, and fell on Ye Qing's shoulders. This is what the hearts of millions of people want, and the hearts of the people have sealed the saints. Ordinary emperors simply cannot bear such popularity, nor can they bear such a majestic human spirit, but this is not a problem for Ye Qing.
"Today I am about to become the Emperor of Heaven, and I want to abdicate the throne to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but before I leave, I want to send a big gift to the people of the Tang Dynasty. Since ancient times, the flood of the Yellow River has been a worry for all generations of China since Dayu. And I am here today. We must solve the flood of the Yellow River, make the Yellow River not turbid, and turn it into a clean river!" After Ye Qing said, he activated his supernatural powers, and in an instant, the sky and the earth were filled with rays of light.
I saw that the turbulent Yellow River became crystal clear in an instant when it was illuminated by Ye Qing's rays. The sediment in the river was rolled up by the rays and landed on the barren land on both banks, turning it into a million mu of fertile land.
With a wave of Ye Qing's hand, the five grains fell into the million acres of fertile land. Once the five grains fell to the ground, they would rise in the wind, and the five grains would be plentiful in an instant. Along the banks of the Yellow River, there are countless willows and poplars, which are lush and lush, with canopies reaching to the sky.
At this point, the Yellow River is clear, fertile fields are formed, trees are luxuriant, and the world is safe!
"Holy Emperor!"
"Holy Emperor!!"
"Holy Emperor!!!"
The 400 million people of Tang Dynasty can all see this astonishing scene through Ye Qing's supernatural power. Countless citizens of the Tang Dynasty by the banks of the Yellow River even took a handful of the water of the Yellow River and drank it all in one gulp.
The 400 million people sing praises to Ye Qing in unison.
At this moment, in the center of the Yellow River, boundless purple light suddenly bloomed, shining the sky and the earth, and in the purple light, a huge silver-backed turtle appeared. As soon as the tortoise appeared, it opened its mouth and said: "I am Xuanwu of the four holy beasts of heaven and earth. Today, there is a sage who responds to the ancient saying 'The Yellow River is clear, and the sage comes out', so I was born in the chaos, and I present Hetu Luoshu to the sage!"
Everyone was shocked, Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku, and Xuanwu are the four holy beasts that suppress the sky. Unexpectedly, Ye Qing's deeds led to the holy beast Xuanwu. Feeling the merits of the saint Ye Qing, I offer a river map to Ye Qing Luo Shu!
Now the people of the Tang Empire are even more fanatical!
"I have seen His Majesty the Emperor, this is Hetu Luoshu!" Xuanwu's huge body suddenly flew to the shore, and after bowing to Ye Qing, a hidden compartment was revealed in the turtle shell, and in the dark compartment was Hetu Luo Shu exudes precious energy.
"Very good, you have meritorious deeds for offering Hetu Luoshu, and I named you Emperor Xuanwu who guards the East!" Ye Qing took Hetu Luoshu, stretched out his hand, and a streak of purple energy fell on Xuanwu.
Xuanwu suddenly doubled in strength, and also had a priesthood.
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor." After Xuanwu thanked him, he retreated into the Yellow River.
Ye Qing held Hetu Luoshu in his hand, and beckoned to Prince Li Xian: "Prince, come forward."
