Taoist night sword

Chapter 169 Chapter 168: The best of both worlds

The king and all the officials in the Hall of Supreme Harmony waited quietly.

The queen is by the side, today the queen is vying to come, she is not qualified to sit here on weekdays, but today she found a good reason.

She said: "Lou Jinchen killed the priest of the Winter God Sect. I want to see what kind of person he is."

So the king did not object.

The ministers who came here today are very neat, all of them are monks of the third realm, and some of them have already touched the threshold of the fourth realm.

Of course, there are also some who have not come back outside, such as the most important two, the national teacher and the high priest.

As for what may be discussed today, everyone knows that someone is said to want to reconcile the conflict between the national teacher and the high priest.

And not long ago, this person was just an assassin-type character.

A righteous man from the rivers and lakes broke into the capital of Qianguo with a bit of recklessness. Many people here have heard Lou Jinchen's name and what he did, so they will naturally think that he is quite a heroic person. But at the same time, I also feel that he is not a person who can control.

This kind of monk who was born in the rivers and lakes and came from the mountains is either tricky or treacherous. It is not an easy task to control and tame.

But in a very short period of time, this wilderness actually reached the fourth realm, and there is a huge gap between the third realm and the fourth realm.There are many people in the third realm in Beijing, but in the fourth realm, one can call their ancestors and start a sect to call their ancestors.

And no matter what his background was, when he showed his strength in the fourth realm, he used the fall of another old brand in the fourth realm as a torch for everyone to see.

Such a fourth realm naturally makes people feel intimidated in an instant.

Before we got to know him, and before we got to know his character, he had already become someone that everyone couldn't afford to provoke.

Today, let His Majesty summon the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to discuss matters with him here.

However, to establish a country with great efforts, the king and the scholars share the world, and the scholars among them are monks. Many officials standing up here were once pure monks. Enter the court as an official.

Now, if Lou Jinchen, the fourth realm, enters the court and becomes an official, he must stand at the forefront of the court.

After the sound of calling Lou Jinchen to enter the palace came out, all the cultivators in the court held their breath and waited intently.

The door was open, and sunlight fell on the steps outside the temple.

They felt that someone was coming to the door. Although they didn't hear footsteps, they felt that the sunlight outside the hall became more intense.

Yang Xuanye sat on the throne and looked out of the hall, his eyes narrowed slightly, because when Lou Jinchen walked into the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he did not see it.

He didn't see the black boot until he stepped on the steps of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Boots appeared, followed by legs, waist, and then he saw a sword, a vine, and then the whole person was revealed in the sunlight.

In his eyes, this is a young man.

What is young is not only age, compared to people in their twenties, Lou Jinchen is obviously older, but some young people have become old and bitter early.On Lou Jinchen's body, there was a flying look unique to young people.

He stood there without saying a word, but the aura flying around him seemed to tell everyone that I can do it.

This is a state of vitality, a person who is like a rising sun, far from reaching the peak, but already radiant.

He didn't remember when he had lost this kind of heart.

Lou Jinchen stood at the entrance of the hall, looking at the people inside. With a glance, he seemed to see all the people in his eyes, but he didn't seem to see anyone.

Step into the palace.

The sun entered with him, and his body was covered with a hazy glow. As he walked forward, the sun's glow was like an invisible veil, dragged into the hall by him, and it was like the sun's glory in the sky. Sending him in, the darkness spread quickly on the ground where he walked.

All the people looked at the scene, as if they were facing the sun messenger.

As for Luo Chan, who was sitting in the queen's seat, watching Lou Jinchen who walked in step by step, she had a special feeling that the one who walked in was also a priest of a certain 'god'.

Because she has only seen such a divine light on the body of the 'priest'.

"Is this Lou Jinchen the priest of the 'Sun'?"

This thought flashed through her mind, and she quickly figured it out again. It's normal for Lou Jinchen to have a special sensitivity to the sun when he reaches the fourth level. Induction has an indescribable mystery.

Entering the fourth realm, feeling the yin and yang, the mystery is bred in the heart, and it is changing every day.

"Jiangzhou, Lou Jinchen, pay your respects to King Dagan!"

Lou Jinchen didn't kneel down, he didn't know the rules of the court, and no one told him about it.

At the same time, he did not report his name Xiaolou, but directly reported Lou Jinchen to reflect his own magnanimity.

He saluted in the Taoist salute posture known in his previous life.

In the Daqian court, if an ordinary person sees the king, he will naturally kneel, but Lou Jinchen, as a person in the fourth realm, no matter what kind of courtesy he uses, no one will say anything, unless he is rude and offended.

"The head of the corridor is exempt from courtesy." Yang Xuanye said, sitting on the throne, looking at the people below, he also felt a little bit of emotion in his heart, he knew how young the person in front of him was.

"The head of the corridor came from Jiangzhou, and he has the spirit of the world. These days, he is more dazzling than the few people." Yang Xuanye said, he does not look tall, but he is still a little thin, with a black With a long beard, the whole person is quite bookish.

Lou Jinchen looked at the opponent's eyes, only felt that the opponent's eyes had double pupils, and there was another pair of eyes looking at him deeper behind the pupils.

"Your Majesty is in command, and your will affects the lives of countless people," Lou Jinchen said.

Lou Jinchen also met the king for the first time, and he didn't know what attitude to use, and he didn't know what gesture to use, so he could only talk to the other party as an elder, after all, as a superior person, and treat himself Putting it in a lower position must be uncomfortable.

He never felt that when he met the king after reaching the fourth level of practice, it was to please and listen to him. Today he wanted to express his feelings directly.

At this moment, in the middle of the row of people on the right, a person stepped sideways, flashed out, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, please kill this villain!"

As soon as this person said, five people moved out of the line at the same time, shouting: "Your Majesty, please kill this villain!"

Yang Xuanye, who was sitting on the throne, remained calm, his eyes swept across the audience, as if all of this was within his expectation, and some people even felt that this was what he was signaling.

"Corridor chief, I don't know what evil deeds you have done to cause so many courtiers to call you a villain and even want to kill you?" Yang Xuanye seemed curious and searching.

Before Lou Jinchen could speak, the person behind him who had spoken before suddenly stepped forward, came to the side of Lou Jinchen, knelt down on the ground with a plop, and cried and said: "Your Majesty, as soon as this person enters the city, he will kill my son, cruel and sinister!" , and also killed Jia Shun, the second-rank general of our Qian Kingdom, such a man who is ruthless, His Majesty should have killed him immediately, and if he said a word to him, he would be misunderstood by the world."

"Oh, what is the misunderstanding?" His Majesty Yang Xuanye continued to ask.

Lou Jinchen stood there with his sword hanging from his waist. Inside this black shirt, there was actually a sword buckle and a belt for hanging a sword.

He stood with lowered eyebrows and lowered his hands, listening to the other party's words quietly, feeling the question and answer, he wanted to see what this Manchu monk wanted to do.

"If Your Majesty does not kill this person, the world will think that the laws of our country are useless, and the monks in the world will think that as long as the cultivation level is high enough, they can do whatever they want in the capital, and the world will think that the laws of our country are useless. Only punish the weak, and dare not swing the knife at the strong."

Lou Jinchen listened. From the point of view of a country, there was nothing wrong with his words. His words were sad and indignant. Lou Jinchen suspected that he was Pan Shaoyou's father, Pan Lingyin and Panyou.

Otherwise, how could he say such words with such eloquence.

"Corridor leader, how do you explain this?" His Majesty Yang Xuanye's voice was a little more majestic and oppressive.

"Your Majesty, is this person Ying Tianling Yin Panyou?"

"It's the old man, villain, Your Majesty is face to face, today is your death day!"

Pan You, who was already kneeling on the ground, immediately raised his head and scolded angrily. His face was full of ferocity and pain, and there was even more madness in it.

Lou Jinchen thought that those assassinations must have been hired by him.

He couldn't help sighing, and said: "Your Majesty, I came here today for the sake of the future of the monks of the Dagan Kingdom, but there are always people who use personal grievances to ask the laws of the Qian Kingdom to punish me, which is very annoying. In that case, then I will go, Your Majesty, take your leave."

Lou Jinchen turned around and left.

Everyone was stunned.

Even the two on the throne were stunned, the queen was surprised, and so was His Majesty.

From their point of view, it is impossible for Lou Jinchen to submit a letter through the channel of Jia's family just to help others selflessly. , Naturally, the opponent must be suppressed first.

However, Lou Jinchen turned around and left, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

Pan You, who was lying on the ground, immediately stood up and shouted: "Your Majesty, this villain is afraid of crime and wants to escape, please take it down quickly, quick, quick!"

When he saw Lou Jinchen's non-stop footsteps and was about to leave the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he shouted loudly: "Imperial Guards, Imperial Guards, take this man down, take him down!"

Lou Jinchen stopped at this time, because the guards at the door heard the shouts inside and blocked the door.

He stood there, holding the vine in one hand, but the hilt of the sword was shaking, and a cloud of sunlight floated on it.

"boom!"

Yang Xuanye patted the armrest of the table and chair, and he had already stood up.

A person beside him quickly said, "Pan You, why are you crazy, is this the place where you can order?"

Yang Xuanye shouted loudly: "Take Pan You down!"

The armored guards outside the hall rushed into the hall and dragged Pan You's two arms out.

Pan You was taken aback for a moment, and then shouted: "Your Majesty, I have made a slip of the tongue, please forgive me next time, I am willing to repay Your Majesty's kindness with death, Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

But no one paid any attention to him. At this time, the person who scolded Pan Lingyin said: "Since the leader of the corridor came here for the future of all the cultivators in Qianguo, why did he leave without saying a few words? No one has stopped him with personal grudges now." Daoist priest, I will respectfully listen to the Taoist priest's high opinion."

Lou Jinchen really planned to leave just now. He felt that Pan You's remarks were ordered by the king, and if he ordered it, it meant that he still wanted to beat himself. If that was the case, he would just leave. , Don't care if they beat them to death.

So Lou Jinchen returned to the palace again, came to the front, and said: "Lou came to Beijing only to send his brother's belongings to his daughter, but he never wanted to see his daughter being bullied. He intended to buy it back. Come back, but the other party is unwilling to let him go, on this point, the son of Shi ShenZhou can testify for me, he was the one who accompanied Lou Mou."

"When Lou took them away, he didn't hurt anyone. As for Mr. Pan being killed later, Lou felt that maybe someone saw him acting despicably and illegally, so they resorted to chivalrous means."

What Lou Jinchen said, everyone actually knows. Sometimes, when you are strong enough, there are some things that just need to be covered with a cloth, and everyone will pretend not to see it.

Lou Jinchen responded briefly to Pan You's questioning just now, and there was another layer of meaning in it, which was that he came here alone, and he had nothing to worry about here, and if he didn't talk speculatively, he would leave.

"The Taoist priest was born in the Jianghu, so it is inevitable that he behaves differently from us, but in the Qian Kingdom, the king and scholars share the world, and many of the officials in the court are also from the mountains, so they can understand the Taoist priest's mood." The man said again.

Lou Jinchen looked at the other party, and immediately asked the other party's name, but learned that the other party's name was Nancy, a strange name, and the name in the court was actually the right minister.

No matter how ignorant Lou Jinchen was of government affairs, he would know that he was a big shot as soon as the word "right minister" came out.

At this moment, Yang Xuanye said: "Master of the corridor, you said in your letter that there is a way to undo the shackles of the monks in the world, can you tell the widow and all the loved ones here?"

Lou Jinchen said seriously at the moment: "It's actually very simple, just cooperate sincerely to create the future together."

"What is sincerity and what does it mean to create the future together?" asked Nancy, the right minister.

"We all know that whether it is the national teacher or the high priest, the goal is to break the shackles of the world, and to allow all the cultivators in the world to break through the oppression in the dark. Since the goal is the same, why can't they cooperate? "

"The director of the corridor said lightly. If this matter is so simple, how can it take so long, but it is still unresolved. Do you know the enmity between the National Teacher's Mansion and the Winter God Sect?" someone said.

"Lou feels that this matter is simple, because you have never expressed your opinion." Lou Jinchen said: "Lou is not very clear about the enmity between them, but as long as everyone is willing to agree with Lou's words, they can let them agree."

"It's okay to say, Daoist." His Majesty Yang Xuanye said in a timely manner.

"If the national teacher wants to build a temple, he will follow him." Lou Jinchen said.

After he finished speaking, everyone was silent for a while. If so, how could the Winter God Sect be able to rely on it? There might be accidents in the whole north.

Lou Jinchen did not stop here, but continued: "The national teacher wants to build a temple, and personnel will be stationed in each temple to preside over the supervision. Your Majesty only needs to order the personnel in each temple to Just come from the court.”

"Do you know how many temples the national teacher wants to build?" His Majesty Yang Xuanye asked.

"I don't know, but I know that there are more monks in the world. Your Majesty only needs every state and every county to establish an official seminary, select gifted children to enter the academy, and be promoted step by step. In less than ten years, they will be cultivated in Beijing. The generals are all from His Majesty's sect, and His Majesty can assign these young monks to the temple to monitor the mountains and rivers at will."

What Lou Jinchen said is very common in another world, but in this world, the succession of monks still depends on masters and apprentices.

Yang Xuanye only felt that this method was new, as if he had scratched something.

At this time, the Prime Minister asked again: "What about the Winter God Sect?"

"Confess it as the state religion, and you can set up temples everywhere in Dagan, but every temple needs to be approved by the officials in the court before it can be established."

As soon as he said this, even the queen was moved.

If it is possible to build a temple in the world, it is no less than a great sacrifice.
