Chapter 103 Royal brother? Jade Emperor! For [the leader]
How vicious are these monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty who can climb trees as soon as their hair sticks to their hair?
If the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty could master this "immortal creation method", wouldn't it be possible to have a mighty city thousands of miles away?
Fortunately, while the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty were overjoyed, they did not make any unreasonable demands to Bai Yuqi, such as asking him to go to the border to build the Great Wall.
It is understandable that Wuji Immortal Lord built a Wuji Immortal Palace for himself.
You think this is a good idea, so you just ask others to build the Great Wall. Do you really think you are tiring the fool?
They don't dare to use Bai Yuqi, the Wuji Immortal Lord, but they can always borrow it from the craftsman apprentices who have learned the craftsmanship from the Tiangong sect, right?
Although the magic power of cultivation cannot be as powerful as that of Wuji Immortal Lord, there is great power in numbers. One craftsman can build one foot in one day, and ten thousand craftsmen can build one thousand feet in one day!
Li Shimin's imperial edict was a bit beyond Bai Yuqi's expectations.
Because following this imperial edict to summon craftsmen from all over the world, it is equivalent to spreading his reputation as the "Wuji Immortal Lord" to the world.
Even if this kind of rumor is learned through "hearsay", each "believer" it generates can only bring him 1 point of faith.
But if all the 15 million people in the Tang Dynasty know his reputation, does it mean that he, the Infinite Immortal Lord, will gain 15 million points of faith?
However, being able to harvest a large amount of faith was a good thing for Bai Yuqi, so he did not pay attention to the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty, and wanted to use his hands to spread this fairy-building method originating from the heavenly craftsmen clan in the upper realm among the craftsmen clan in the lower realm.
That's a little bit of caution when opening it.
Since he showed his hand in front of the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty, he has developed the magical method of "building a majestic city from a flat ground, and turning a natural chasm into a thoroughfare".
It was as if Li Shimin had applied quick-drying glue and was glued to Bai Yuqi, following him around without doing anything all day long.
When Bai Yuqi walked there, he happily followed him with his hands behind his back, poking his head like an old man walking to see what he was doing.
This made Bai Yuqi start to dislike him a little. Can you still do something serious? Why are you always following me?
Not only him, but all the officials of the Tang Dynasty were also like ghosts.
Wherever Bai Yuqi went, their eyes were fixed on him, for fear of missing some strange "immortal magic".
This made Bai Yuqi feel a little creepy. She always felt that their eyes were glowing green. What are you doing? Is it scary?
Bai Yuqi couldn't bear it anymore and warned Li Shimin tactfully: You are an emperor of the Tang Dynasty, how can you follow me around without doing your job? You said you wanted to come to escape the summer, and I also repaired the house for you. You are busy with your business, and I am busy with mine.
Can we not interfere with each other?
Li Shimin was happy, but he gave him a scroll of bright yellow silk without thinking. Bai Yuqi unfolded it inexplicably and saw, Wow! What a big hand!
The general meaning of the imperial edict is that he was conferred the title of "The Infinite Emperor of Da Luo Tian Que and the All-Seeing Emperor of the Yellow Dao".
It also focused on Li Shimin, the "Emperor of the Earth" and Bai Yuqi, the "Prince of Ziwei". The two are "brothers who worship each other" and are planning to hold a ceremony on a certain date to announce it to the world.
Then Zhongnan Mountain in the Qinling Mountains and the surrounding counties of Lantian at the foot of the mountain were designated as the fiefdom of the "Wuji Emperor", and 100,000 households were actually granted the title of "Jade Emperor"!
Bai Yuqi immediately broke into sweat. The title "Jade Emperor" seemed to have only appeared in the Song Dynasty, right?
Although it can be understood that the word "yu" in the "Jade Emperor" is taken from the word "yu" in his real name, not the word "jade" in the "Jade Emperor".
But Bai Yuqi always thought that there would be a king of the daughter country with a green face, fangs, and a palm to protect his heart. He would pop out of the grass with teeth and claws and call him "brother Yudi".
Because he was worried that Bai Yuqi would misunderstand, Li Shimin explained to him again and again.
This was just a gift given to "Prince Ziwei" by him as the "Human Emperor", and it was not a reward for claiming that he was superior to him.
In order to win over Bai Yuqi, Li Shimin spent a lot of money.
This title of "Jade Emperor" was a title specially created by him for Bai Yuqi, his "imperial younger brother".
In the Tang Dynasty, there was no such title as "emperor". The highest level below the emperor, that is, the prince, could be named "prince".
But when it came to Bai Yuqi, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty specifically introduced the concepts of "emperor" and "king".
It is divided into four levels: "Emperor, Emperor, Lord, and King", which symbolizes Bai Yuqi, the "Emperor", which is half a level behind Li Shimin, the "Emperor".
It can be regarded as the title of Bai Yuqi, the "Prince Ziwei" in the human world, and he has fulfilled his previous promise of "sharing the throne and sharing the country".
In terms of rank, the "Emperor" is two levels higher than the "Prince" of the first rank in the city.
It is three levels higher than the first-rank "king" of a city with 5,000 households, and four levels higher than the first-rank "gong" of a city of 3,000 households!
Moreover, the treatment of 100,000 households was ten times higher than that of the prince of the Tang Dynasty. You need to know how many households there are in total in the Tang Dynasty at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty?
A title comparable to that of the emperor is impossible to exist in any dynasty or generation. It is absolutely unprecedented and will never be followed by others!
The most important thing is that this "Emperor" is not just a false title.
Instead, you can appoint officials and form an army in your own food fiefdom for self-governance without having to report to the emperor Li Shimin for the actual title of authority!
Bai Yuqi was so confused by the twists and turns of the ancient texts in the imperial edict that it took her to figure out the meaning.
Now he is actually the king of the Tang Dynasty who "lives with the country, and there are no taboos, as if I were here in person", and the nature of his fiefdom is almost equivalent to that of the Vatican in China.
Li Shimin actually had such courage, which really surprised Bai Yuqi.
As the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, wasn't he afraid that he would do something wrong based on China?
But having said that, if Li Shimin dares to be crowned, Bai Yuqi dares to be!
After all, both parties know very well how much benefit the changes caused by Bai Yuqi, the Endless Immortal Lord, will bring to Datang!
As more and more craftsmen came from all over the Tang Dynasty, the entire Kuyu Immortal City entered a state of vigorous development.
After Bai Yuqi passed down the basic craftsmanship of the "Five Elements Construction Method", in addition to establishing various craftsman rules, he let it develop on its own.
Based on the concept of "the law is not passed lightly", new craftsmen want to join the "Tianji Craftsman Family".
They all have to work under Tiangong's sect and serve as "force workers" for as short as three months and as long as three years. They are also called "temporary workers."
