Why did Yan kneel down? Who do you think he was in his last life? Even the jade emperor has to give three points.

Edit | Flying Fishing Documentary

Li Shimin, the son of Li Yuan, lived in Zhenguan for twenty-three years.

It is recorded in The Journey to the West that after Li Shimin's death, the soul went to hades, and all the gods and children came out to see it. The tenth hall of hades even lined up neatly at the door to meet him and bowed down to him respectfully.

What was Li Shimin's past life like? Why did the prince give him such a big gift that even the jade emperor gave him three points of courtesy?

The tenth installment of Journey to the West, The Ghost of Emperor Taizong of the Second General Palace, tells the story that after Li Shimin's death, he was taken to the gate of hades, and the black and white impermanence that guided the road turned into a wisp of white smoke and disappeared in front of Li Shimin.

Li Shimin swept away the smoke in front of him with his hand, and the words "The Gate of Hell" suddenly appeared on the plaque of the scarlet gate, and a scarlet door suddenly appeared in front of him.

There is a plaque on the door that says "The Gate of Hell". Behind the door stood a ghost. At the front, there are several fierce big men. These big shots are the underworld.

Yamaraja in the tenth temple saw Li Shimin, and his face changed from serious to respectful.

They winked at each other, took the initiative to go forward, knelt down in unison, bowed down to the gift, and said in unison, "Your Majesty, forgive me for my mistake." Li Shimin, please forgive them for not coming out to see them earlier.

You know, this gift of worshipping is a privilege that only people like the Jade Emperor can enjoy.

Li Shimin is only a mortal, but he doesn't know how to get out of this horrible place. He just wanted to leave this gloomy place as soon as possible, so he nervously asked the prince, "Why did I come here?"

Before Yan people could answer, Cui Panguan came to submit the book of life and death, and asked Yan people to check whether the deceased who came to the underworld had died.

After the princes circulated life and death books to each other, they whispered to Li Shimin, "Your majesty's luck is over." So we must arrange for Cui Panguan to go to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin couldn't accept the fact that he was dead and sat on the ground feebly. Black and white impermanence quickly appeared and helped him.

At this time, Wei Zhi, the minister of ghosts and gods, came to the underworld and dressed up as a child who submitted a book of life and death.

I saw him dip his hand in the ink on his shoes, and with lightning speed, he drew a picture about Li Shimin's death, turning "Thirteen" into "Twenty-Three".

Yamaraja looked at each other, speechless, and didn't know what to do.

Yan people seem to be afraid of Li Shimin. In order not to offend Li Shimin, they still reassigned Cui Panguan, and together with black and white impermanence, sent Li Shimin to the reincarnation bridge, sent him back to continue to be the emperor on earth, and then let the world be peaceful for ten years.

In order to ensure Li Shimin's safe arrival on earth, Yamaraja sent Cui Panguan to cooperate with black and white impermanence to send him back to the underworld.

I escorted him respectfully all the way and told him that since the last time I had a big fight in the underworld, the road to heaven has become tortuous.

Li Shimin and his party first arrived at the Mountain of the Ghost. This mountain is unusual, and there are dissatisfied ghosts hidden in the depths of the jungle. Cliffs, bottomless black river, ghosts everywhere, ghosts screaming and resenting.

There are countless Yang in Li Shimin, attracting countless ghosts. If you are not careful, you may bury the sun's spirit just harvested in this mountain, but I don't know why none of these ghosts dare to approach him.

Li Shimin closed his eyes all the way, covered his ears tightly, and was supported by black and white impermanence, feeling the rage of all walks of life, and meditating Buddhist scriptures in his heart to prevent being disturbed by spectre.

Then Li Shimin and his party went to the legendary "eighteen layers of hell", where evil spirits committed many sins and unforgivable sins.

Evil spirits were sent here and suffered all kinds of terrible torture, such as flogging, frying and burning, to make up for their mistakes before they died.

The screams and curses of the spectre in the layers of hell are endless, miserable and sharp, and it is already terrible to listen to it, let alone witness it?

Li Shimin thinks that he killed many people by mistake in his life, which is also guilty. He was so frightened that he seemed to see himself soon. He is suffering in his heart and just wants to leave quickly.

Li Shimin and his party went to the murder city, and Li Shimin saw many ghosts tied around their necks.

Some of them waved their swords as if they were generals who fought bravely against the enemy.

Some people knelt on the ground and put their hands in the air as if he were a speech minister who risked his life to protest.

There are unfinished children and grandmothers with crutches.

Li Shimin was silent for a long time. He recalled his own "Xuanwumen Change". I don't know how many innocent people died and how many families were destroyed in this incident. He personally destroyed many of his own flesh and blood, and Li Shimin became more and more remorseful.

Cui Panguan told Li Shimin that these dead people were left unattended, and they were not allowed to be super-living, and no one was burning incense, so they had to be kept here to suffer.

Li Shimin thought of some absurd decrees and loyal ministers who were unjustly killed during his reign. He is eager to return to the dead and hold an amphibious meeting to turn these dead souls over.

These people who should enjoy the beauty of the world are tortured in the underworld. Li Shimin is determined to do something for the people to make up for his mistakes.

After Li Shimin's soul returned to his body, he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and looked at the people kneeling in front of the temple, thinking for a long time. Everything he has just experienced is vivid in his mind.

Shortly after returning to the soul, Li Shimin held a land and water conference, specially inviting a famous mage to turn over for the innocent people who died in the coup and burn some paper money for them, hoping to gain peace of mind through whatever means they can.

In governing the country, Li Shimin decided to repent thoroughly, and never let the people suffer again, and never let the loyal subjects die in vain.

Li Shimin witnessed the demise of the Sui Dynasty, understood the political disadvantages of the Sui Dynasty, and decided to take a completely opposite political line from Yang Di.

Before Li Shimin established three provinces and six departments, in order to strengthen centralization, kings of past dynasties often used atrocities to deter the counties below, which easily led to tyranny and left a tyrant's reputation.

Li Shimin established the system of "three provinces and six departments", and distributed state power to "three provinces", namely Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province and Shangshu Province.

Decentralized management can weaken the imperial power, prevent the emperor from going his own way, issuing improper decrees and acting arbitrarily.

Li Shimin also knows that people's food depends on the weather. Whenever there are natural and man-made disasters, people are miserable.

Therefore, whenever natural disasters such as drought, flood and locust plague occurred, he opened the national treasury, actively allocated funds for repairs, extended kindness, reduced taxes, and ensured the survival of the people.

Li Shimin has set up government offices all over the country to provide a place for people to complain and express their dissatisfaction. He cherishes the people and doesn't treat them easily.

At the same time, Li Shimin also advocated frugality, and sent more than 3,000 maids home, which not only saved unnecessary expenses, but also allowed them to reunite with their families.

There is a well-known story among the people: the prisoners in Li Shimin poor prison can't go home, and they are suffering from missing, so they are pardoned to go home to visit relatives. Because of the gratitude of the emperor, all the prisoners went home to visit relatives and returned to prison in full, and no one escaped!

Above the imperial court, Li Shimin was outspoken, meritocratic, reused outspoken remonstrators such as Wei Zhi, and actively improved the imperial examination, so that people with bad records could serve in the imperial court.

In terms of war, Li Shimin made efforts to stabilize the border situation, eliminate separatist forces, minimize fighting on the battlefield, minimize killings, make people less displaced, and return to a stable world.

Li Shimin initiated a prosperous period of "Zhenguan rule", where the people have ample food and clothing, live and work in peace and contentment, all officials are conscientious and speak freely, and the world is full of vitality from the inside out.

The overall situation of the world is stable and the country is thriving.

On this day, Li Shimin wanted to discuss the issue of recovering the border with Wei Zhi, so he invited him to play chess in the palace. Wei Zhi is a courtier. When he heard that Li Shimin invited him to play chess again, he voluntarily confessed the reason why Li Shimin went to hell.

It turns out that in the capital, there is an old man who can predict the situation in the world and rise and fall in the next. This fortune teller is Yuan Shoucheng, uncle of Yuan Tiangang, a geomantic master in Tang Dynasty.

Yuan Shoucheng is not only accurate in divination, but also free of charge, so ordinary people compete with him for divination, including some fishermen. Every time Yuan Shoucheng can accurately calculate the location of Jinghe Aquarium, the fisherman always returns with a full load.

The sharp drop in the number of aquarium in Jinghe has alarmed King Jinghe.

The Dragon King of Jinghe turned into a boy in white and went ashore to look for fishermen. Knowing that Yuan Shoucheng was in the way, he angrily sought out Yuan Shoucheng's theory and made a bet with him.

King Jinghe asked Yuan Shoucheng to calculate when it would rain and how much it would rain tomorrow.

Yuan Shoucheng counted his fingers, then shook his fan and replied: It will rain at noon tomorrow, and it will stop in three minutes. When the rain stops, the total rainfall will reach three feet three meters.

Jinghe Dragon King secretly rejoiced. How can such a mortal know the astronomical phenomena? He is the god who keeps the rain, and he will win the game.

So he upped the ante. If Yuan Shoucheng calculated word for word, he would take out five hundred and twenty gold as money for divination. If he didn't calculate correctly, Yuan Shoucheng left Beijing from now on, and no more divination in this life.

Just as the King of Jinghe gloated, an imperial edict came down from the sky, informing him when it would rain tomorrow and how much it would rain. All this was in line with Yuan Shoucheng's expectation.

King Jinghe was shocked, but he didn't want to lose the bet, so he changed the imperial edict privately. The rain that Yuan Shoucheng expected didn't come as scheduled.

Jinghe Dragon King won the bet and was about to drive Yuan Shoucheng out of Beijing.

Yuan Shoucheng told him that in fact, as early as the meeting, Yuan Shoucheng found out his identity and expected that he would disobey the imperial edict in order to win. Now King Jinghe has committed such a felony, so he will be sent to Qiongtai.

King Jinghe knew that he was in big trouble. He begged Yuan Shoucheng to save his life and promised never to go ashore to disturb him again.

Yuan Shoucheng nodded, pinched his finger, and learned that it was Cao Guan of the celestial world-Wei Zhi. King Jinghe wanted to live and begged this Li Shimin, but there was still a chance.

At night, the King of Jinghe sneaked into Li Shimin's dream and begged Li Shimin to stall Wei Zhi tomorrow. If he did, he would make the people in the Tang Dynasty have a good weather, and Li Shimin agreed happily.

The next morning, after the morning, Li Shimin said to Wei Zhi, "Ai Qing is a great chess player. Can you solve the chess game that I didn't solve in my dream? " Want to invite Wei Zhi to play chess, Wei Zhi is difficult to speak, so he went with Li Shimin.

Li Shimin thought, as long as you drag Wei Zhi to three o'clock at noon and miss the execution time, you can save the life of King Jinghe. Who knows, Kevin·Z actually did this with his own soul out-of-body experience, and went to the dragon chopping platform to execute King Jinghe.

After his death, King Jinghe was very angry and pestered Li Shimin day and night, which made Li Shimin lose sleep. Although ministers Qin and Weichi Gong stood at the door of the bedroom every night, they failed to solve their worries.

Wei Zhi is ashamed to know that he is also responsible for this matter. He thought he had hurt Li Shimin, so he invited Guanyin Bodhisattva to take away the ghost of King Jinghe.

Li Shimin didn't have a good rest for several days and nights, and his health was not as good as before. He died soon, which led to Li Shimin's trip to the underworld.

Except BiMarvin who made a scene in hell hundreds of years ago, only one can return safely from this hell.

However, when he was in the underworld, the ten halls of hades ignored him, and all kinds of suppression, how could he be respectful in the face? What are the conditions?

Li Shimin was an emperor in this life, but in his previous life, he was the "Emperor of the Arctic Wei Zi". This position is very high in the three realms, second only to the Jade Emperor, and it is one of the four emperors of Taoism.

Wei Zidi occupies Wei Zixing, who is located in the Central Plains and plays the most important role in Sanyuan. Wei Zixing's constellation points to the Forbidden City, the ancestor of Vientiane, and its position is excellent, which also shows that the status of Emperor Wei Zi is very high.

Since ancient times, people have speculated the rise and fall of dynasties by observing the fortune of Zixing, so Zixing is also called "Emperor Star".

As Li Shimin's royal brother, Tang Priest was a golden cicada in his last life, not to mention Li Shimin's position.

When the Tang Priest went to fetch Buddhist scriptures, Li Shimin sent three treasures, namely, the Nine Rings, Zhang Xi, Jin Lan cassock and Zijin alms bowl, all of which were precious vessels for more than nine days.

On the way to learn Buddhist scriptures, the Tang Priest will report to himself every time he goes to a country: "I came to the Tang Dynasty in the east, and I went to the Western Heaven to worship Buddha for Buddhist scriptures on the orders of the Tang King." As soon as this is said, kings of all countries will be entertained and stamped with the national seal on customs clearance documents.

These practices by kings of various countries are not only a tribute to the Tang Priest's exorcism, but also an expression of the awe of Li Shimin, the king of the Tang Dynasty, and an honor to establish diplomatic relations with the Tang Dynasty.

Why did Emperor Wei Zi, who was supposed to be above the world, appear on earth?

According to the law of the Three Realms, the immortal wants to get a higher cultivation, except for the nourishment of the elixir and jade wine, that is, to experience the suffering of this world, to help people live and work in peace and contentment, and to experience the soul.

The experience of ordinary immortals in the world began with ordinary people, but the cultivation of Emperor Wei Zi has reached a certain level, and he has been attached to the Great. No wonder the Jade Emperor gave him three points of courtesy.

Emperor Wei Zi can take charge of the three realms and the whole monsters. He has four effective generals, namely Tian Peng, Tianyu, Yi Sheng and Zhenwu, who are all important ministers in heaven.

Li Shimin's previous life as "the Emperor of the Arctic Wei Zi" was very prominent. It's no wonder that when he arrived at the underground palace, the ten halls Yan personally greeted him and bowed down respectfully. It is natural for the jade emperor to fear him for three points.
