People sit in the southern sky and watch the ages

Chapter 157
On the main seat, Chu Danghe bowed his hands to everyone present, "On behalf of the people of Longkoudu, I thank you for your help today."

Li Changqing took advantage of the situation and said, "I'm afraid the invitation from the county lord is not just to clear away the evil spirit gathered in Longkoudu, is it?"

Just now, with the power of Longkoudu people, Li Changqing is more aware of the danger hidden in it to sort out the evil spirit in the place.

The evil spirit is nothing but the power left behind by the eighteen ghost kings and all ghosts, and the root is still in the eighteen ghost kings.

Although these ghost kings chose to retreat temporarily because they were afraid of the many righteous forces represented by the people behind today's attack, it was absolutely impossible for them to simply let Luohua City God's Mansion be established.

Because once the Luohua City God's Mansion is really established, then the 49 Mansions of the Great Zhou Dynasty will follow suit to re-establish the order of the gods and restrain the ghost monsters. This is absolutely intolerable for the monsters.

So although there was a lot of momentum just now, they were just testing each other's bottom line.

Casting spells in the Longkoudu county mansion by myself is equivalent to representing the will of Dazhou, the five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River, many Taoists and even the emperor of Yinluo at the same time, so he can strike with the will of all people.

He glanced calmly at Xu Sanyou and He Jiuzhang who were standing silently, thinking of their reminders just now.

Immediately, they understood that this attack was probably decided by them and Xuezheng Guan Junyi.

Sure enough, it is worthy of being a Confucian school, and its grasp of people's hearts is almost terrifying.

Of course, the self who has benefited in vain also needs to accept this feeling.

Hearing Li Changqing's question, the county venerable Chu Danghe nodded, leaned sideways and cupped his hands to the sky, "Send the Queen's order."

Everyone rearranged their clothes and lined up left and right.

"In today's world of demons and demons, misfortune is happening to the underworld. Fortunately, there are many righteous people in the world, who slay demons and demons, and guard the universe. However, the merits must be rewarded. The twentieth-level military merit system is launched, and the pioneering festival seal is given to sweep away the chaos in the underworld."

After the county lord read out the Tianhou's oral order, the people below were restless and exclaimed in low voices, endlessly heard.

"I didn't expect the Empress Shengtian to restart the 'Twenty-rank Military Merit System'?"

"And there is also the seal of pioneering. According to the "Book of Laws", every pioneer has a corresponding title, which is passed on from father to son, and from son to grandson, forever."

"This is a great thing. We have made great achievements in this generation."

The young monks of some sects couldn't help discussing in a low voice, unable to suppress the joy in their hearts.

Among them, a rising star like Xijiange is the representative. Although it is famous all over the world because of the emergence of a Fifth Floor True Monarch, it still has an essential gap with those famous sects that have been passed down for thousands of years.

The most important thing is the sect vassal.

Like Xingxiu Temple, a Buddhist temple that has been passed down from the Manghuang era, all dynasties have rewarded it generously. Even if a new dynasty is established, in order to stabilize the situation, it will also recognize its ownership of the surrounding large territories.

The state capital where Xingxiu Temple is located is directly named Xifo Mansion, the purpose is to highlight the nobility of Xingxiu Temple.

The same is true of Shuzhou Prefecture and Shushan Sword Sect.

The later sects were not so lucky. Even because of the limited resources in the world, the surrounding gates and courts would consciously suppress the development of these sects.

Tianhou's reopening of the 'Twenty-rank Military Merit System' and 'Development Festival Seal' today is in itself the greatest preferential treatment for the small sect.

Although the territory of the Netherland is not as prosperous as the human world, if it can be passed on from generation to generation, it will be enough to narrow the gap between the small sect and the famous sect.

Starting today, most of the sects in the world will be grateful for the kindness of the Queen of Heaven.

Li Changqing also thought of something.

Even he thought a little deeper, Tianhou's actions were undoubtedly a kind of differentiation and win-win for the five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River.

The five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River do have the intention to change the country, but this intention is more based on the status quo that there is no progress.

But now that the military merit system has been reopened, the five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River have more thoughts of seeking the title of marquis or even king.

After all, the five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River are the joint efforts of five families. Even if the Great Zhou is destroyed, only one family and one surname can reach the top of the universe, and the greatest possibility is the Qinghe Cui family where Cui Mingcang belongs.

No matter how much the other four families contribute, they are just seeking the prince.

On the surface, it was Da Zhou who suffered the most.

The centralization of power has been weakened, and local self-reliance has stronger support and ambition.

But in fact, Da Zhou didn't have much to lose.

There are many monsters in the land of the netherworld, and Dazhou has indeed controlled a part of it through the generals of the Four Zhengs over the years, but compared to the vast land of the netherworld, this part is nothing.

Even if Dazhou didn't issue the 'Twenty-Rank Military Merit System' and the 'Opening Festival Seal', would the Nether Land occupied by the Yinluo Emperor and the five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River be re-declared to Dazhou?
But now, although he took a step back, in fact, Da Zhou still grasped the righteousness, and the power of enfeoffment was at the top.

If the Great Zhou finally pacified the world, the national power is tyrannical, and there is a peerless emperor who promises everything, and then he learns from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it is not impossible to issue a "tweet order".

Li Changqing looked at the people around him, and he obviously found that it was divided into two parts.

Some of them were famous families like Xingxiu Temple Zhenru and Jiangnan Five Surnames. Their expressions were indifferent, and they couldn't see any joy or anger. They seemed to have known Tianhou would do this for a long time.

The other part is the disciples of Xijiange and the local tyrants, their faces are ecstatic, and they even keep praising the queen's benevolent government.

One peach kills two soldiers.

This word came to Li Changqing's mind.

He Jiuzhang once said before that Cui Mingcang said that Longkoudu has the aura of a dragon, in order to open a hole in the hearts of the people in the world, release people's ambitions, and shake the foundation of imperial power.

And this queen is even more generous, since you guys want to speak up, you might as well open up a bit.

The five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River want to replace the Great Zhou, and there are more small households below who are hoping to replace the five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River.

So her first step is to distinguish the five surnames from the local tyrants.

The county venerable Chu Danghe who was sitting at the top coughed, and the discussion voices of the people gradually became quieter.

"There is the Nether Yin Luo Clan, who was born with the spirit of the Nether Dragon, governing Yin and Yang, Cailuo Huashan City God's Mansion, clearing the world of ghost troubles, and contributing to the people's livelihood. This county intends to build Luohuashan City God's Mansion and let the people worship it. What do you think?"

This is the meaning of the five surnames in Jiangnan.

Li Changqing reacted instantly. He looked at He Jiuzhang and Xu Sanyou who were beside him, and they were silent.

It turned out to be the case.

The lord of Longkoudu County can only do so, sandwiched between the five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River and the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he issued orders on both sides at the same time.

"The county respects the adults and governs with virtue."

Lu Zhenguan and other children of the five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River lined up to stand in line for this policy.

However, the Xuezheng Guan Junyi who was standing with the county venerable Chu Danghe suddenly said, "I feel something is wrong."

The county official Chu Danghe breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Guan Junyi standing out, and said, "Master Xuezheng, what do you think is wrong?"

"Li said, if the name is not right, the words are not right."

"My Longkoudu City God Temple should enshrine the Longkoudu City God, so what's the matter with enshrining a Luohuashan City God?"

"Sir, what you said is wrong."

Shang Shuwen wore a moon-white scholar's shirt to go out, "Longkou Du Chenghuang fell 50 years ago, so there is now a chaos in the netherworld, and the matter is in a hurry, and the propriety is not to be blamed."

Guan Junyi glanced at Shang Shuwen, and said with a smile, "Your Shang family's vertical and horizontal roads are just small ones, how can you get on the table? You said that you should obey the power in a hurry. Let me ask you, is there a way to follow the power?"

Being reprimanded by Guan Junyi, Shang Shuwen's face became ugly.

Hitting people without slapping people in the face, Confucianism is indeed a prominent school, but in front of so many people, it is only Guan Junyi who is a great Confucian who said that his Shang family learned the small way.

If others say this, it is naturally a life-and-death enmity.

But what he said is the debate between Confucianism and Taoism and vertical and horizontal Taoism, and this debate has long been settled, otherwise Confucianism would not be the mainstay of the imperial examinations today.

The queen's method of obedience?
Li Changqing settled down to think, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

That's why there is still such a consideration in promulgating the "Twenty-rank Military Merit System"!

None of the people present were stupid, and they immediately realized that the lowest level of the twentieth-level military merit system is called Gongshi.

One hectare of field, one servant, one house.

If the house here is placed in the Netherworld, it will be a place of shadows, where ghosts can gather!
This is for everyone to attack the Netherworld by themselves, and those who have the ability to conquer the land of Longkoudu Netherworld can naturally lead Longkoudu City God!
Shang Shuwen thought for a while, and was about to refute.

Suddenly, one of the five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River stood up. The man had a fierce breath, a tall figure, and a Tang saber in his hand. He cupped his fists and said, "My lord's words are justified. Now is the time for us to make contributions."

Haihe helped Lu Hengjiang.

Li Changqing's eyes were serious, did Lu Hengjiang say that because of the Lu family's intention?
He looked at the people of the five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River. Sure enough, he saw that the expressions of the five surnames were different. Some looked at Lu Hengjiang with angry eyes, and some looked secretive and thoughtful. drama.

Tianhou's plan has paid off.

Li Changqing had to lament in his heart the plan of the queen who was thousands of miles away.

······
In Qifeng Palace, although the flowering period has passed, the peonies here are still in full bloom.

Sitting on the throne, Tianhou looked at the old Taoist Xuanyin who came back to report.

"So, you haven't been able to stop Emperor Wei Wen from opening Luohua City God's Mansion?"

There was a chuckle in her tone, making it impossible to guess what she meant.

The old Taoist Xuanyin lowered his head slightly, "The minister is incompetent."

Tianhou waved her hand, "It's not your fault. I didn't expect that Emperor Yan Luo would turn to the Heavenly Demon Way. It's a good idea for you to use Emperor Wei Wen to restrict him. If it was this palace, I would choose this way."

She stood up, looked at the bright sunshine outside and sighed, "The spring is good but short, so the flowers don't always bloom. Now summer is here, and in three months, it will be autumn."

"Autumn, the master kills."

Although she was talking to herself, everyone present could understand her.

The old Taoist Xuanyin pondered for a while and said, "The Queen of Heaven plans to send troops to conquer the five surnames after the autumn harvest?"

Tianhou didn't say it directly, but asked, "How about the Taiyin Xuanjia soldiers you trained for this palace?"

Hearing the name of Taiyin Xuanjia, Xuanyin Old Taoist couldn't help showing a smile on his expressionless face, "With the help of the Queen of Heaven, [-] Taiyin Xuanjia have been trained."

In this world, Taoism is manifested, so soldiers are expensive and not expensive.

Most of the soldiers who can be really useful on the battlefield are Taoist monks, and with the help of formations and presided over by an expert, it is no problem to besiege and kill immortals and Buddhas.

"En." The Empress nodded noncommittally, "Go to the Ministry of Industry to pass on the oral order of the palace, take the refined Taiyin Xuanming Banner, and practice the 36 Taiyin Xuanming Formation."

"Thank god."

The old Taoist Xuanyin raised his head and strode out of the Qifeng Palace. With the Taiyin Xuanming formation in his hands, the next move is no longer just a simple test.

Seeing Xuanyin going out, Tianhou turned her head to look at the stacked memorials behind her, revealing a rare woman's charm, "It's such a beautiful spring, it would be too disappointing to stay here in Qifeng Palace."

The great eunuch Huang Chang waited on him carefully, "Nowadays, the blessings of the world are all in the logistics of the saints. Madam, for the sake of the people of the world, it has been a long time since you visited Baihua Garden. It used to be Madam's favorite place."

"Diligence?" Tianhou smiled self-deprecatingly, "I'm afraid many people in the world think that this palace is too strict, so let them go."

"By the way, how are the peonies in Baihuayuan blooming today?"

"After returning to the Holy Empress, Peony dare not thank the Empress without the will of the Holy Empress."

The chief eunuch Huang Chang had a smile on his face.

The Queen of Heaven pondered for a while, and then ordered, "Send these memorials to the emperor. It's time for him to review these things himself. I will leave one day and go to the Hundred Gardens."

The last time Tianhou drove the Hundred Gardens was when the first emperor was in power, but now she has regained her interest, and the inner palace suddenly became hot.

The chariot and horse supervisor pulled out a Luanjia, and in front of the Luanjia, there were two Jinpeng birds with great Buddha light, their wings were forged like gold, and a section of Buddhist scriptures circulated, but their eyes were empty and numb, like puppets, at the mercy of others.

The golden-winged roc has a fierce temperament and loves to fight. It feeds on dragons. In order to make it into a frame, a Buddhist master uses a secret method to cross it.

When Tianhou saw Luanjia, she suddenly stopped moving.

The originally beaming servants suddenly felt dizzy and sweaty, and felt that the warm sunshine was more irritating than the cold winter north wind.

The eunuch Huang Chang stepped forward cautiously and said, "Holy Empress, what orders do you have?"

Tianhou's eyes fell on the Jinpeng bird, "Who made this luan ride?"

The eunuch, the chariot and horse supervisor, immediately knelt on the ground and grabbed the ground with his head, "Reporting to the Queen of Heaven, it is the auspicious omen presented by the Buddha Kingdom in Mohai, the extreme west this year."

"Mohai Buddhist Kingdom, its heart can be punished."

All of a sudden, all the servants knelt on the ground.

The chief eunuch Huang Chang looked at the eunuch the charioteer and horse supervisor with cannibalistic eyes, the other party was really stupid, why didn't he stick him to death earlier.

Tianhou waved her hand, "Forget it, people in the world have a lot of ideas, and you are just following me, trying to please me."

The eunuch Huang Chang breathed a sigh of relief, and Tianhou called herself "I", which showed that she really didn't take this matter to heart.

After boarding the Luanjia, Tianhou suddenly said, "Pass down my palace's oral order, General Zhengxi's disrespect in front of the imperial court, and he will be fined for one month."

As soon as her words fell, two golden-winged rocs rushed straight into the sky, piercing through layers of white clouds, and the sharp crows of the rocs resounded through the Eastern Palace, sprinkled from Mount Tai, and echoed in the capital.
