The chief priest of the Martial Temple, with the title of Ten Philosophers.

All civil and military officials in the court looked at Li Changqing with fanatical expressions, hoping that he would adopt Fang Xuanling's suggestion.

As the saying goes, when a person achieves enlightenment, a chicken or a dog ascends to heaven.

If Li Changqing is mythologized and becomes a saint alongside Confucius, then ministers like them will also benefit from it and gain great benefits.

"No, no!

Li Changqing waved his hands repeatedly and said:"If heaven had not given birth to Zhongni, eternity would be like a long night." How can a few people compare with the sages and teachers?"

Confucius, as the founder of the Confucian school, has a supreme status in the hearts of the Chinese people.

Although Li Changqing is not interested in Confucianism, he still has respect for Confucius.

However, since Dong Zhongshu, Confucianism has gradually deviated from Confucius. The initial concept was that by Zhu Xi's time, the great Confucian scholars were almost all stubborn and corrupt Confucians.

Li Changqing's rejection seemed to be expected by Fang Xuanling.

His face was solemn and he continued:"Sage Kong is the teacher of all generations and enlightens all generations. Huazhang. Your Majesty pacified the troubled times in the late Sui Dynasty and saved the people from dire straits. Attack the Turks in the north, seal the wolf as a slave, expand another three thousand miles of territory for the Tang Dynasty, and frighten the barbarians in all directions! As a result, Tubo bowed its head, paid tribute and made peace.

Gaochang, Qiuci, Western Turks, and Japanese countries all came to worship and show off the power of the Han and Tang Dynasties. This power has overshadowed both ancient and modern times. How can you not deserve the name of a saint!

Li Changqing declined again:"No, no!" The achievements of this small man are the result of the concerted efforts of the three armies. How dare I take credit alone, let alone stand shoulder to shoulder with the saint.

Fang Xuanling said again:"Without Your Majesty, wars would break out all over the land of Kyushu, barbarians from all directions would invade the rivers and mountains, and the people of the world would be in dire straits." How come your Majesty cannot live up to the name of a saint! Li

Changqing declined for the third time:"Xuan Ling, don't say anything more. I cannot bear the name of a saint." Fang

Xuanling straightened his official uniform, knelt down suddenly, and bowed his head to Li Changqing in a posture of prostrating himself on the ground. He begged for the third time:"I bow my head and beg to build a martial arts temple to commend your majesty's merits!""

His head was buried deeply in the ground.

Du Ruhui and other civil servants were shocked at first, but they quickly realized what they had done. They quickly followed Fang Xuanling's example, walked out of the seat, knelt on the ground, and their heads were buried deep in the ground. On the ground, the mountain shouted:

"Please build a martial arts temple to commend your majesty for your great achievements that have shaken the past and the present!"

Li Jing, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Su Dingfang and other generals also came out, knelt on one knee in the hall, and shouted:

"Please build a martial arts temple to commend your majesty for your great achievements that have shaken the past and the present!"

The voice was loud and resounded throughout the Tiance Hall.

Looking at the civil and military officials kneeling below, Li Changqing sighed and said:

"After that, I followed you and others to build a martial arts temple."

When the civil and military officials in the court heard this, they were all overjoyed and shouted:

"Your majesty is wise!"

Li Changqing raised his hand to let everyone level up.

There was a burst of emotion in his heart:"Everyone in the world thinks that the emperor can do whatever he wants, but they don't know that the emperor also has many things he cannot control.

I obviously don't want to build a martial arts temple, let alone put myself on the altar and become a martial saint on par with Confucius.

However, all the civil and military forces in the dynasty are trying to push me to the position of martial saint in dire straits.

I finally understand what it means to be involuntarily."

After all the officials took their seats, Li Changqing said:"The martial arts temple is similar to the Confucian temple. The widow is the leader, and there should be ten wise men and seventy-two sons. Who do you think is worthy of the title of Ten Philosophers and Seventy-two Sons?"

The officials bowed their heads and pondered. They tried their best to push Li Changqing to the position of Martial Saint, not only so that he could enter the Martial Temple and enjoy eternal sacrifices!

But it is indeed difficult to determine the relevant candidates.

Take the Confucian Temple as an example.

The position of the chief priest of the Confucian Temple, Confucius is the sage king.

The one who deserves the position is Mencius, who is the sub-sage. The ten philosophers are Yan Yuan, Zigong, Zixia, Ziyou, Min Ziqian, Ran Boniu, Zhong Gong, Zaiwo, Ran You, and Ji Lu.

These ten people are Confucius' favorite disciples.

There are also seventy-two disciples headed by

Yan Hui, who serve as worshippers. The ten philosophers of the sub-sage have a high status. The plan of the civil and military officials in the Tiance Palace is not the ten philosophers of the sub-sage. The position is the place where seventy-two generals from ancient and modern times have worshiped!

The officials thought for a long time, and finally Du Ruhui stood up and said:"I think that in the Martial Temple, Your Majesty should be the Martial Saint King. The Grand Marshal of the armed forces and horses, accompanied His Majesty in the southern and northern wars, and served as His Majesty's deputy. He should be respected and worshiped as one of the Ten Philosophers."

The Grand Marshal of the Armed Forces refers to Li Xiuning!

The court officials all recognized her military exploits and did not call her the eldest princess of Pingyang, but her official position.

When Li Xiuning heard this, her face was panicked, and she quickly came out and said:" Absolutely no way, how can this handsome woman deserve the position of ten wise men? Du

Ruhui laughed and said:"The marshal's merits are second only to your Majesty's. You must not underestimate yourself." He turned to look at Li Jing and other generals and asked,"Comrades, the Marshal is one of the Ten Philosophers of the Martial Temple. What do you think?""

Li Jing and Qin Qiong all agreed.

"Someone thinks that the position of the Ten Philosophers belongs to none other than the Marshal!"

"Also approved! One of the Ten Philosophers of the Martial Arts Temple, Marshal deserves the title!"

"The marshal must take the lead in every battle, fight the enemy with great bravery, and make great contributions to His Majesty in calming the troubled times. He is naturally worthy of the position of Ten Philosophers."

Those who can enter the Tiance Palace to participate in politics, whether they are civil servants or military generals, which one is not the best among the best?

Even warriors such as Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong know the twists and turns and are very wise.

Not to mention that Li Xiuning's achievements are not enough to reach the position of Ten Philosophers, but her relationship with Li Changqing is enough for these ministers to spare no effort to recommend her.

Before Li Xiuning could refuse, Li Changqing directly pressed his palm and said:

"Since everyone expected her, Xiuning didn't need to say anything more. The widow then relied on the ministers and regarded Xiuning as one of the ten wise men.

After deciding on one of the Ten Philosophers of the Martial Temple, Li Changqing added:"I have some candidates in my mind for the Ten Philosophers of the Martial Temple, as well as the sub-sages who deserve to be honored. Please listen to me."

When all the officials heard this, they all cupped their hands and said,"I would like to hear your majesty's holy words.""
