Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun were stunned when they heard the words "exchange life for life".
The little Taoist priest actually wanted to use his own life to save Changle. He was really a good person who sacrificed himself for others!
But Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun were very alert. Why did Yang Qian do this?
What was he after?
Yuan Tiangang seemed to have seen through Li Shiming and his wife's thoughts and said indifferently," There are three reasons why my disciple did this:
Firstly, he was fated to be with Princess Chang Le. He could change her fate and improve her cultivation.
Secondly, his disciple had already made some progress in his cultivation of mantras. The reduction of his lifespan did not have much of an impact on him, but for Princess Chang Le, it was a fundamental difference.
Thirdly, my disciple's method of changing fate consumes a lot of magic tools and materials. Those who are not rich and powerful can't afford to spend it. Rather than saying that he was changing Princess Changle's fate, it was better to say that I wanted to use this opportunity to verify what I had obtained.”
Yuan Tiangang's long speech made Yang Qian's purpose a bit cliché. He told Li Shimin and his wife bluntly that Yang Qian could benefit from casting spells on Princess Changle, not to do good deeds.
Hearing this, Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun nodded in agreement.
They didn't believe that there would be a selfless person in this world. If Yang Qian wanted to change Princess Chang Le's fate without any intention, they would feel that there was a trap.
Like Yuan Tiangang, saying that Yang Qian was a little cliché, the two people felt more at ease instead.
It had to be said that Yuan Tiangang was proficient in the art of speech.
If it were Yang Qian himself, he probably wouldn't be able to grasp the psychology of Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun so accurately and say it so perfectly.
"Then, how do you want us to cooperate?”Li Shimin asked about the details of the operation.
"You'll have to ask my disciple about this." Yuan Tiangang pushed the topic to Yang Qian.
Yang Qian thought for a moment." The method of changing fate is very complicated. It will take at least three months to see the results. During this period, I need to see Princess Chang Le often.”
It was actually not difficult to directly increase Princess Chang Le's lifespan, but Yang Qian needed time to obtain Princess Chang Le's noble aura.
In order to leave ample buffer time, Yang Qian proposed a three-month deadline.
Li Shiming and Empress Zhangsun looked at each other. They could accept three months.
Moreover, Yang Qian did not say that he wanted to be alone with Princess Chang Le. Just take it as letting Princess Chang Le take a long vacation outside the palace.
Li Shiming thought for a while and said,"Since Little Taoist's method of changing fate will take three months, I will arrange a mansion near the Qingxu Temple and let Chang Le stay there for a long time."
As long as Little Taoist needs Chang Le's cooperation, you can send someone to pass on the message or go to the mansion to look for Chang Le. How about that?”
Yang Qian had no reason to refuse this suggestion, so he nodded in agreement.
Next, they discussed some details.
Under Yuan Tiangang's gaze, Yang Qian deliberately made a bunch of unnecessary gold, silver, and other material requests. Li Shimin generously agreed to all of them, and then left with Princess Chang Le.
……
On the night Li Shiming left, an angel delivered the various gold and silver artifacts that Yang Qian had requested.
Along with it were two imperial edicts. Yuan Tiangang and Yang Qian were both conferred the title of Nation Master of the Tang Empire. They had the right to enter the palace to make suggestions at any time.
Along with the imperial order, there was also a rather generous gift of antiques, jade, jewelry, silk, and satin, worth more than ten thousand strings.
As for the matter of changing the fate of Princess Changle, Li Shimin did not announce it to the public, but he carried it out very quickly.
A wall to the east of the Qingxu Temple was a large manor that occupied ten acres. Originally, a large salt merchant's family lived there. With the arrival of a group of mysterious people, the large salt merchant's family packed up and moved to an unknown place on the same day.
After that, there were all kinds of carriages coming and going, changing the furniture of the manor, changing the facilities of the manor, and arranging all kinds of guards.
In less than ten days, the manor where the salt merchant's family lived had become Princess Changle's other residence.
On a cool morning, Princess Chang Le also took a carriage and moved into the other residence with more than ten personal maids.
There was also a 14 or 15-year-old girl who arrived at the villa in the same carriage as Princess Changle.
The young girl was none other than Princess Chang Le's half-sister, Princess Xiang Cheng.
Princess Xiangcheng was the eldest daughter of Li Shimin's concubine. Her mother was a low-ranking concubine who had passed away. Although she was of low birth, she was quiet, knew etiquette, and knew how to advance and retreat. Li Shimin had always admired her and often said that she was a role model for other princesses.
This time, he was going to arrange for Princess Chang Le to stay in the other residence for three months. Li Shi Min was not at ease, so he asked Princess Xiang Cheng to accompany him to take care of Princess Chang Le.
"Royal Sister, we're here. Why do you seem a little unhappy?”Princess Chang Le was elated when she saw that the carriage had stopped.
In the past, she rarely had the chance to leave the palace. Now, she was like a bird that had escaped from its cage. She was so happy.
However, Princess Chang Le soon noticed that her royal sister, Princess Xiang Cheng, had been frowning slightly and seemed to be a little unhappy.
"No, Royal Sister, don't think too much. Let's get out of the car!”
Princess Xiang Cheng came back to her senses, and a smile appeared on her pretty face as she spoke very gently.
