Chapter 396

Before ascension, three days of time.

Li Shimin, except for dealing with government affairs normally, almost accompanied Tang An.

The two visited in disguise, visiting the entire Chang'an City.

Whatever Tang An wanted, Li Shimin bought it for her. Whatever Tang An bought for him, he accepted it.

Both of them never mentioned the separation three days later, only immersed in this beautiful father-daughter love.

Later, Tang An appeared more often and was recognized by the people according to the appearance of the living shrine.

They all competed to kneel and salute, everyone was very honored to be able to see the Tang Emperor and the legendary Chang'an Princess.

Then it was everyone's enthusiasm, almost drowning Tang An.

Some sent fruits, some sent homemade wine, some sent fresh vegetables, some sent candied fruits from their own shops. There were also those who sent clothes, jewelry, and even antiques, jade bracelets, etc...

Tang An was moved with tears in her eyes.

But... if they gave any more, they would really crush her under the mountain of gifts.

Li Shimin laughed heartily and pulled Tang An out of a pile of gift boxes.

"Look, this is the popular support of my Great Tang. It is the popular support you, this Chang'an Princess, won yourself."

"An'er, Father is also equally proud of you."

Tang An was stunned, proud?

Being recognized by parents seems to be something every child wants to do.

And today, she actually did it in this way?

Li Shimin waved his hand, and there were guards and palace people who sorted out these gifts for Tang An and sent them back to her Princess Mansion.

"Still visiting?"

"Visiting."

Tang An was moved with tears in her eyes; such a Great Tang, such people, really seem worth her life to guard.

"Good, then let's continue visiting." Li Shimin bought all kinds of delicious food for Tang An.

Making her cheeks round and round, very cute.

Li Shimin was amused by her appearance and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.

"Still eating?"

"Eating."

"Want a sugar figure?"

"Want."

"There's juggling, want to watch?"

"Watch."

"Little rabbit lantern, want it?"

"Want."

"Do you like the bracelet?"

"Like."

It can be said that Li Shimin bought a copy of everything from every stall for Tang An.

Making up for this father-daughter love that came twenty years late, as much as possible in these three days.

Tang An put everything Li Shimin bought for her into the Wealth Gathering Ring. Only holding a rattle in one hand and a candied hawthorn in the other.

For a moment, Tang An seemed to see herself as a child. That stubborn, sensible, pretending to be strong, child who would say she didn't like anything even if she saw something she liked.

She squatted down and touched her head.

"Look, who said you have no father to love."

Li Shimin heard this sentence, his eyes filled with tears, full of heartache.

"Go, daughter, let's continue visiting. Today Father will take you to buy out Chang'an City."

Tang An nodded and waved goodbye to herself as a child.

It was more like her relief on the word fatherly love after more than twenty years.

Three days later, ascension ceremony.

The entire Chang'an City was empty, all gathered on the periphery of the ascension ceremony. There were also many people from other places who got the news and came to Chang'an City to watch the grand event.

Tang An was full of spirit, with a smile on her face, wearing the gorgeous clothes that Li Shimin ordered the Shangyi Bureau to create for her, standing on the Ascension Platform, overlooking Chang'an.

Li Shimin appeared beside Tang An, and the two walked to the edge of the Ascension Platform to celebrate with the people.

"Brother Yang Jian, what do you think?" Sun Wukong and the three were hidden in mid-air, never leaving.

They always subconsciously wanted to protect Tang An in the dark. Although Tang An was almost no one in the Three Realms who could hurt her now.

Yang Jian was quite emotional when seeing this scene.

"The Tang Emperor holding this ascension ceremony, firstly, is to establish a spiritual monument for the Great Tang people."

"Secondly, it is also to build momentum for Master. Through this way, telling the gods in the Heavenly Court that no one can bully his Great Tang Princess."

"And this third..."

"Say it quickly, say it quickly." Sun Wukong couldn't wait.

Yang Jian continued: "Today, the time, place, and people are right, the faith power of the Great Tang people is enough for Master's cultivation to advance a big step."

"Perhaps... the Saint position is really not far from Master."

Sun Wukong's eyes were pondering, "Oh~"

"Why? Does Monkey Brother think what I said is wrong?"

"No, no, I just want to remind you that the atmosphere has been set up to this point, it's time for you to appear and confer gods, Brother Yang Jian."

Yang Jian pinched his eyebrows, looking at Tang An's suspicious and probing gaze, almost wanting to find a crack in the ground to drill into.

Thinking too deeply, almost forgot the business.

Only to see Yang Jian appearing in mid-air, wearing silver-white armor, behind him was a giant golden body image. Holding the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear, beside him was Xiaotian Quan.

Since it was to build momentum, he, as a disciple, naturally couldn't be worse.

"I am, Judicial God, True Lord Qingyuan Miaodao, Yang Jian."

"Today, I follow the Jade Emperor's edict to confer gods."

The people saw this and knelt down to worship one after another.

Only Tang An and Li Shimin stood with their hands behind their backs and did not salute.

Yang Jian took out the Jade Emperor's edict, opened it, and... didn't mean to read according to what was written on the edict.

"Great Tang Chang'an Princess Tang An, followed orders to go west, all the way with outstanding achievements. Opened up territory for Great Tang, supplemented the national treasury, suppressed natural disasters, slew demons and evils, destroyed evil Buddhas."

"Created a peaceful and prosperous age for the people, guarded the border stability for Great Tang."

"Today, the Eighty-One Tribulations merit is fulfilled, the Heavenly Court follows the people's hearts and heaven's will, conferring Tang An as the Chang'an Princess title of the Heavenly Court. Also, conferred as the Nine Heavens Response Peace Saint Mother Origin Venerable, ascending today."

Yang Jian released the Jade Emperor's edict, and the edict turned into a ray of light, entering Tang An's brow.

In an instant, golden light flourished around Tang An. A golden light fell from the sky at the same time, immortal energy curled, accompanied by auspicious clouds across the sky.

Li Shimin saw this and signaled to start the drums, music rose, dance rose, and sent Tang An on her way.

Led by Li Jing, they knelt down under the Ascension Platform. Shouted loudly: "Respectfully send, Chang'an Princess, rank in the immortal class!"

The people followed and knelt down again, they looked up at the scene of Tang An ascending in broad daylight, and a sense of pride spontaneously arose. After all, that was their Great Tang god, that was their Chang'an Princess!

It was also from this moment that Tang An truly became a god in the hearts of the people.

The people knelt down devoutly and followed Li Jing to shout loudly.

"Respectfully send, Chang'an Princess, rank in the immortal class."

I don't know why, a sense of reluctance suddenly rose in the hearts of the people.

Therefore, without anyone leading, they spontaneously followed and shouted twice.

"Respectfully send, Chang'an Princess, rank in the immortal class."

"Respectfully send, Chang'an Princess, rank in the immortal class."

The faith power emitted by countless people was all turning into rolling red currents of energy like waves, merging into Tang An's body.

"Hum~"

In mid-air, the true Merit Golden Wheel appeared behind Tang An. In that golden wheel was the Huaxia land, the prosperous pavilions.

Tang An twisted her fingers, her divinity fully displayed, and between her sleeves, she nourished the people of the whole city with immortal power.

"Father."

"I'm going."

Li Shimin nodded, holding back tears, and waved to Tang An.

He should have had all kinds of instructions, but at this moment, there was only reluctance in his heart.

"If you have free time, remember to go home and see Father."

Tang An nodded with a faint smile, then turned and flew into the Heavenly Realm.
