Tribulation of Mysteries - Chapter 807

[Chapter 805 Breakthrough (5800 supplements)]

Royal Palace.

Daqing Hall.

Today, Emperor Dasong is in his forties. He has an elegant appearance, is good at flower and bird painting, and is good at practicing Taoism.

At this time, the morning court had passed, so he deliberately left a few people behind and came to the back hall to discuss matters.

“The barbarians from the north are invading the border again…”

“There is a severe drought in the Central Plains, and the relief funds have been embezzled…”

…

After the discussion, the officials’ faces could not help but show a hint of tiredness.

How could he not see that the imperial court was in decline and the country was in decline?

However… I have the intention to kill the thief, but I am unable to save myself!

To be honest, the previous prime ministers were all good at one time and proposed many feasible strategies. However, when it came down to it, officials had many ways to misinterpret it.

This is also the secret skill of the bureaucracy to deal with the fate, either delaying, ignoring…or increasing the pressure at every level…

In short, if the execution ability at the grassroots level is not good, no matter how good the country-saving strategy is, it will be useless!

Therefore, in all dynasties, regulating officials has been the first priority of the officialdom.

However, no matter how the feudal dynasty was reorganized, it was still ruled by men, and it could not escape the vicious circle of the death of men and the decline of government.

Even though the officials at this time knew that it was difficult for the imperial court to return, it was like a seriously ill person who could not use strong medicine and could only treat it slowly.

There are lessons learned in this regard.

During the reign of Emperor Xizong and Emperor Dazu of the previous dynasties, although there were also border troubles, the court was able to survive by tinkering with them.

But after Sizong came to power, he couldn’t wait to get rid of the eunuchs and change the prime minister… The most important thing was that he was too hasty, and he changed orders day and night. The prime minister was changed as if on a whim. The result was that the country’s situation took a turn for the worse, and he eventually became the king of subjugation!

In the history books, those mediocre kings can actually be successful kings. A small number of radicals have a great victory and most of them have a great defeat. It can be described as ironic.

When he was a young official, he was also very satisfied with his ambitions. He thought that after ascending to the throne, he would reform the government and become the king of ZTE.

But after a few blows, people become decadent and only care about eating, drinking and enjoying themselves, and seek immortality.

At this time, after discussing with several senior officials, the official waved his hand and said, “…I heard that a Taoist priest riding a tiger came to the capital?”

“Report to the official, it is true.”

Bao Bao .

Jia Yan, a scholar of Wenge, came out and said: “It is said that he can subdue tigers, has cross pear, fire and jujube, and can cure all kinds of diseases! His Taoist name is Xu Lingzi, he seems to be a true practitioner…”

The ministers knew it well. , In fact, how come the officials who have the secret agents of the Imperial City Department don’t know about the Xu Lingzi?

But there was too much opposition before, such as Privy Councilor Tong Jing, who was wearing a red official robe and a black winged hat! As well as Master Zishi, etc…

Although the officials were somewhat interested in Xu Lingzi before, the other party only showed the ability to ride a tiger, which was of little use. Since the opposition was loud, it was okay not to see him.

But after Jiaolihuozao was exposed at this time, the situation was completely different.

It can cure all diseases and prolong life, who wouldn’t want to?

Jia Yan was actually speaking on behalf of the officials. As soon as he spoke, the officials knew that they could not stop him!

“Officials, please listen to what I have to say!”

Tong Jing came out at this time. His skin was as dark as iron, he was tall and tall, and he did not look like a eunuch. At this time, he said loudly: “Monks and Taoists are humble people and should not stand in the court. , There are precedents in all dynasties. Officials are saints and must not be deceived…”

Although Tong Jing is a eunuch, in fact, he admires fame and religion and has been actively moving closer to civil servants.

However…people look down on him.

But at this time, seeing someone coming forward, other civil servants still followed: “Even if Your Majesty wants to Taoist scriptures… the real people in the palace are enough. Country Taoists are used to pretending to be gods and ghosts, deceiving foolish men and women…”

“You… Does this compare me to a peasant woman in the countryside?”

The official was furious, but it was difficult to say anything.

Civil servants have long been famous for this, and there is an ancestral precept that it is not a crime to speak to officials, so as not to block the way of speech.

“I don’t dare.”

A group of ministers took off their hats and apologized, but it was hard to predict how they felt in their hearts.

“It’s the official banquet of Qianqiu. Why don’t we summon the Taoist to come to the front of the palace so that all the officials and all the Chongming Taoists can have a look. Can’t we tell at a glance whether it is true or false?”

At this time, it was still the treacherous minister Jia. Yan stood up.

Why is it that traitorous ministers are so useful? They are here. They can cater to their superiors without any bottom line. Which emperor wouldn’t like it?

And because the reputation is so bad, if there is a reason, it is just a matter of words to clean it up.

“That’s very good.”

The official smiled slightly and settled on it.

…

the Great Vajra Temple.

“Official decree, please invite Taoist Master Xu Lingzi to attend the Qianqiu Banquet on the fifteenth day of this month!”

Wu Mingzi was tangled in his heart, but without showing any signs of it on his face, he handed an invitation to Aaron and said with a smile: “I have been busy with official duties in the past few days .

I’m so busy that I neglected my fellow Taoist. Don’t blame me!”

“No, I have to thank you, fellow Taoist, otherwise this matter wouldn’t have been possible.”

Aaron accepted the invitation with a smile and bowed again, as if he was grateful for what had happened .

Nothing is known about the matter.

Wu Mingzi chatted with him for a few more words before saying goodbye and leaving with his entourage.

Aaron looked at the old man following Wu Mingzi and suddenly sneered.

…

Wu Mingzi and Lao Dao walked a little further and got into a carriage.

In the carriage, Huo Yunzi had been waiting for a long time. At this time, his face was full of shame: “Master… I know I was wrong.”

“Where did you go wrong?”

The old Taoist priest with a vicissitudes of life sat cross-legged, with a There was a breath of fresh air lingering, and he asked in a cold voice.

“I shouldn’t look down on the people of the world, let alone try to monopolize the Qianlong Qi…”

Huo Yunzi lowered his head and admitted his mistake sincerely.

“You are the leader of our sect… If I had warned you earlier, wouldn’t you have been the next one to be promoted to a real person?”

The old Taoist priest said sadly.

After this incident, Huo Yunzi’s future path will be full of twists and turns.

In Chongming Taoism, there is one great master and five great masters, so naturally there are also factions.

If Huo Yunzi hadn’t been from his faction, he wouldn’t have come to wipe his ass in such a hurry.

“Then Xu Lingzi…”

Huo Yunzi asked reluctantly after admitting his mistake.

“It has become a fact that the people personally selected by the officials will go to the Qianqiu Banquet… As for Taoism?”

When the old Taoist priest said this, his expression was also confused: “I can’t see through it, I really can’t see through it…”

He looked at it That Xu Lingzi was originally a traitor to the king, and he ended up dying badly.

But upon closer inspection, it seems that something has changed, vitality is flourishing, and the fate of death is no longer there.

What’s more important is that he actually practiced Taoism!

How can this be?

…

At the same time, in the secret room of the Great Vajra Temple.

Wushan also reported to Abbot Baimei: “Abbott… the fire dates are indeed as effective as gods! What should we do?”

“Amitabha… the Taoism has appeared in the world, how should we deal with the Chongming Taoism? Since that person Xu Lingzi said that the fate is over, so be it.” The abbot said in a low voice.

Wushan nodded slightly, knowing that the Great Vajra Temple was still the same as before, and allowed Xu Lingzi and Chongming Dao to fight!

But this young Buddhist disciple was confused.

Since Taoism can appear in the capital, what about Brahma?
