The Emperor granted him a poem and lodged him in Jingde Temple. Prince of Shu Yuancheng dreamed of a blue-clad youth holding a letter, handing it to a palace envoy, stepping on yellow clouds and gradually vanishing. The Prince asked the Master about it, and he replied: 'There will be the joyous event of the conception of an heir apparent.' Soon after, Renzong was born. / Earlier, when Yue Shi was governor of the Western Capital, he dreamed that the Celestial Emperor summoned him and said: 'The ruler of the world seeks an heir; I will select one for him.' After a short while, a person arrived, and the Emperor said: 'The Central Plains seeks an heir; you go, do not decline.' He then assented and departed. An attendant at his side said: 'This is the Barefoot Immortal Li of the Southern Marchmount.' The next year, Renzong was born.
