I preached in the Six Dynasties

Chapter 105 Conspiracy
On the outskirts of the city, in the gazebo, there were a few maids sitting kneeling.

Cai Jingjing waved his hand, and they stood up, bent their hands down, and withdrew slowly, with graceful figures and gentle movements.

They hung bamboo curtains around them, and stood outside with their backs behind their backs, each holding a plain flowered paper umbrella.

There were only three people left in the pavilion, none of whom were serving people. The silver pot engraved with dragon patterns made a soft "sizzling" sound on the stove, and white mist curled up from the mouth of the pot.

Outside the bamboo curtain, raindrops dripped from the corners of the eaves and the bamboo leaves, and there was the sound of pattering rain, and the light gradually dimmed.

It's getting more and more like a conspiracy atmosphere, Li Yu thought to himself.

Cai Jing saw that these two Taoist priests really didn't do anything, so they had no choice but to pour out the residual tea by themselves, took out the new dark green tea from the paper bag with a bamboo spoon, put it on a piece of white paper, brushed off the finely divided tea powder, and put it into the purple sand in the pot.

Then he took the silver pot and poured it into boiling water.Although he was old, his hands were extremely steady, and the boiling water poured in was at the same level as the mouth of the pot, and the tightly rolled tea leaves in the three cups unfolded with a slight sound, without overflowing at all.

An orthodox scholar like Cai Jing cultivates a noble spirit, and the Confucian technique of nourishing spirit has its own unique features.

Although it is not as good as Buddhism and Taoism, there are ways to ascend to immortality, and there is no magic method to fight and kill, but studying things to know is itself a very profound knowledge. Once you have learned something, your cognition of things is not at the same level as ordinary people , you can control foreign objects more easily.

Li Yu picked up the lid of the purple clay pot, skimmed off the fine foam from the mouth of the pot, covered it, and poured boiling water on the pot.The tea foam rushed down the body of the pot, and a refreshing tea fragrance wafted out immediately.After a while, the water on the body of the pot dried up.

"Good tea!" Li Yu took a deep breath and praised sincerely.

"Does the orthodox Taoist master also understand tea art?" Cai Jing asked with a smile.

"I don't understand." Li Yu smiled and said, "However, the tea Xiang Cai drinks is not the best."

"Hahaha, the Taoist priest is too humble. I can tell from your expression that you understand tea." Cai Jing poured boiling water over the tea cups, refilled two cups, and handed one to Lin Lingsu.

He has not done these things by himself for many years, and now he has a unique pleasure of drinking tea and making tea after leaving the maids away.

The conspiracy atmosphere is getting more and more serious, Li Yu nodded with satisfaction, and made a smiley expression with a smile to match the atmosphere.

"National teacher, what's your order if you want to recruit this time?" Cai Jing asked with a smile after pushing the tea with a very low posture.

"Eliminate the Daxiangguo Temple."

Li Yu almost choked, the atmosphere of a good conspiracy was completely wiped out by Lin Lingsu's words.

If anyone comes up, just ask the question directly.
Cai Jing swallowed, his expression a little unnatural, his lips twitched a few times, and finally he asked, "Why?"

In order to prevent Lin Lingsu from continuing, Li Yu quickly took over the words, "Cai Xiang, what is your Majesty missing?"

"Your Majesty is rich all over the world, the body of the dragon is healthy, the sons and daughters are around his knees, and he lacks nothing."

"Lack of money! Our Da Song is the richest, but also the most short of money. Mr. Cai, don't you think so?"

Cai Jing savored the tea in the cup carefully, and also savored Li Yu's words carefully. He didn't know whether to praise the tea or Li Yu.

"Wonderful."

Lin Lingsu saw that Li Yu was better at talking with these officials than himself, so he simply pretended to be dumb and put on airs without saying a word.

"Although this tea is wonderful, the water for making it has to be purchased from the Daxiangguo Temple. It is said that the only spiritual spring in Bianliang is controlled by the Xiangguo Temple, and other people have to spend money to buy it besides the imperial palace. The price of a cup of water is more expensive than this tea."

Cai Jing said with a smile: "This matter did not start from the Song Dynasty, and the Lingquan eye was not as you said. It was the Han Dynasty. The eminent monks in the Daxiangguo Temple used supreme magic power to wash the spring eyes with Buddha's light, creating The Lingquan. In other words, the Lingquan is something from the Daxiangguo Temple."

"Cai Xiang, times have changed. Is the Lingquan created by the monks of the Han Dynasty on the land of Bianliang, the capital of the Song Dynasty? If it is, it is something from the Song Dynasty. Could it be that today, in the Daxiangguo Temple, Have any other monks ever participated in the Buddha's light washing the spiritual spring?"

"Also, since the time of the old Han Dynasty, the Daxiangguo Temple has collected money without calculation. Have you ever thought about what kind of wealth it has accumulated so far?"

Li Yu is like a bad guy who tempts to commit crimes, leading the scheming Cai Jing step by step towards the ultimate goal.

Was Cai Jing really led in step by step?
At least Li Yu didn't think so. The old boy probably already had his own purpose when he heard his first sentence.

At this time, Lin Lingsu, who was on the side, couldn't bear it any longer. He said directly: "Cai Jing, you want to stabilize your position. All the ministers in the court want to stabilize your position. You can only please His Majesty. I like big scenes today. , I like to build gardens, I like to build tall buildings, I like to give big rewards, I like to show off, all of which cost money. When we destroy the Daxiangguo Temple, the wealth we get will be enough for you to cherish. Don't hesitate, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you Chance."

If it wasn't for the person in front of him being a national teacher with a detached status, Cai Jing would have left in a huff.

Although what he said is the truth, why don't you want to lose face, talking nonsense here?

Li Yu and Cai Jing, who were still immersed in the atmosphere of plotting a big event created by the two of them painstakingly, were a little embarrassed. Ling Su was destroyed.

If so, let's be honest.

Li Yu coughed lightly, rubbed his nose, and said, "Right now, Prime Minister Cai wants to keep his favor and keep the position of prime minister. There are only two ways. One is to make reforms, get rid of the shortcomings of the Song Dynasty, and then restore the economy. I believe in Prime Minister Cai. You have this ability, but it should take more than ten years, right? You can’t wait more than ten years, and His Majesty can’t wait even more. You will step down before you succeed, and you will definitely be liquidated by then.

The second way is to join us in overthrowing the Daxiangguo Temple.Kill this fat pig, and we celebrate the New Year together.If you kill a Daxiangguo Temple, the entire Song Dynasty can be full. His Majesty is satisfied, and Cai Xiang's status is as stable as Mount Tai.

After the event is completed, we will not take any of the wealth accumulated by Daxiangguo Temple. "

Cai Jing picked up the teacup, drank it in one gulp, and said, "I will lead six and a hundred officials to push the flames and help His Majesty make up his mind, but at the beginning, you still need to take action first."

"Yes." Li Yu said simply: "We want the old site of Daxiangguo Temple."

This is the old address?Cai Jing curled his lips and couldn't help but said: "It seems that the Taoist priest is very confident."

Li Yu smiled faintly, boasted wildly, and pointed his finger towards the sky, "There are people above us."

Cai Jing raised his eyelids, hesitated for a moment, and still didn't ask, but his attitude was better than before.

Li Yu blew a sentence casually, but in his heart, countless thunderous names emerged, all of which were gods in the Taoist sect.
