Li Mi, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, was known as the prime minister of the gods, and held important positions in the four dynasties of Tang Xuanzong, Suzong, Daizong, and Dezong, and finally ascended to the position of prime minister. His life experience is rich and colorful, not only saving the crisis of Datang many times, but also frequently living in seclusion in the mountains and pursuing immortal paths. So, does he really possess the secret of the immortals?Let's have a hard time.
In the early years of Tianbao, there was a lazy monk in a monastery in Hengshan in Nanyue, who worked hard during the day and rested quietly in the cowshed at night. This lazy monk likes to collect leftover meals from everyone and use them as his own dinner when they are hot, so the monks jokingly call him "the lazy monk". When he was young, Li Mi once studied in this temple and was interested in the behavior of lazy monks. One night, the stars and the moon hung high, and the Buddhist song echoed melodiously. When Li Mi heard the sound, he found that the lazy monk was chanting, and he felt that it was extraordinary. He followed the song to the lazy cowshed, paid his respects, and waited. Lazy Disabled invited him to sit down, and the two sat together, and Lazy Disabled gave the leftover potatoes to Li Mi. Lazy and bluntly said: "You will be the prime minister for ten years." Li Mi was quite surprised, but politely saluted and left. Miraculously, Li Mi really became the prime minister of the four dynasties for ten years, as the lazy remnant said.
In addition to this legend, the history books also contain some anecdotes about Li Mi. Once, when he was receiving guests at home, he suddenly stopped and said to his family: "Hurry up and clean up, Mr. Hongya will come tonight." Mr. Hong Ya is an immortal in Taoist mythology, but Li Mi declares that he wants to come and drink with him. On another occasion, when he was chatting with a guest, he saw a jar of fine wine being served, so he declared that it was a fine wine sent by Magu and invited everyone to taste it. Magu is a Taoist goddess who symbolizes longevity, and Li Mi actually said that she personally gave wine. It is said that many years after his death, people still saw him riding by on a mountain path and stopped to talk to people. However, whether Li Mi really interacted with the immortals, and whether he was feathered and ascended to immortals, has become a big mystery in history.
Some people commented that he "took responsibility for himself", that is, he often played tricks on the false. Perhaps this is just a means taken by him in a high position to protect himself in the political struggle. Overall, despite some unrealistic descriptions, these ** rumors have left us with a legendary prime minister.
