Chapter 672

Gao Huaide was stunned by Zhao Kuangyin's decision today, but dared not contradict him; he stepped forward, clasped his fists in salute: "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Additionally, order the Ministry of Works to construct a Daoist temple in Bianliang City to worship the Supreme Primordial Ultimate Profound Dao Lord!"

The ministers were puzzled.

"Your Majesty, may I ask, which immortal is this Dao Lord?"

Zhao Kuangyin smiled proudly: "Of course you do not know the origin of this immortal. But I received his grace just days ago and gained extraordinary power."

"All of you, follow me."

Leading the ministers outside, he pointed to a pair of stone lions before the palace gate and asked: "Do you know how heavy these stone lions are?"

"Your Majesty, these stone lions are two meters tall and weigh five thousand jin!"

An official from the Ministry of Works stepped forward to answer.

"Five thousand jin!" Zhao Kuangyin smiled calmly. "Is there anyone in the world who can lift them?"

The ministers looked at each other in silence.

What illness has His Majesty caught today?

Not only has he reversed the policy of favoring civil over military, but now he's talking nonsense about stone lions.

Gao Huaide stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, a five-thousand-jin stone lion—let alone lifting it, even moving it is nearly impossible. Even if Xiang Yu were to return, he could only sigh helplessly!"

"General Gao speaks truly. A five-thousand-jin stone lion is beyond the reach of any mortal!" the civil officials echoed.

Zhao Kuangyin chuckled lightly, strode forward with imperial bearing, walked to the stone lion, and extended his foot, giving it a gentle kick.

The next moment, the two-meter-tall stone lion was kicked upward, soaring directly to a height of dozens of meters.

The civil officials were dumbfounded.

The military officers were dumbfounded.

This surpassed all their imagination!

"Can human strength truly reach such an astonishing level?" Gao Huaide stared wide-eyed at the sky. "Your Majesty is truly a divine being!"
