Saint Immortal Way

"You really dare to say anything!" Emperor Wen frowned, threw the folder in his hand on the desk, stood up, and walked around the Shang study with his hands behind his back, looking very worried.

Huangji sage Yang Huaxi stood aside, motionless, waiting patiently.

After a while, Emperor Wen stopped, turned his head and said, "Is this really what the sage Chunyang said? It's really daring, he is just afraid that the world will not be chaotic!"

The sage Huangji shook his head, spread his hands and said indifferently: "Brother Huang, why do you deceive yourself? He just said in private what others dare not say. In my Great Kuang Dynasty, there are many schools, many of which are innumerable. The nature of these so-called schools is It’s not much different from the sect, it’s just that it hasn’t flourished yet!”

"So what, at least the Baishengtai Temple and the Chaotang haven't supported these societies yet!" Emperor Wen said.

"Of course there is no support now, but it doesn't mean that there will be no support in the future. I, the Great Kuang Dynasty, don't expect to unify the whole world?" Yang Huaxi laughed lightly.

Emperor Wen frowned and sighed: "No matter how powerful the dynasty is, it is impossible to rule the whole world. I still have this self-knowledge!"

"That's it. It's obviously not going to work. Why not use another way?!" Yang Huaxi said.

Emperor Wen pointed to the notebook on the case, and said solemnly: "Look at the old article, what encourages private navigation, encourages private force, encourages private overseas establishment of a country, encourages overseas colonization... These things are all scourges. Once released, it is no different from Tear up my imperial regime!"

"..." Yang Huaxi, the emperor's sage, was silent.

"The dynasty wants to delay preaching...there are many farsighted Confucians in the Baishengtai Temple. They will not fail to see the benefits of teaching and preaching. The number of academic societies is the final proof. As long as the dynasty is more prosperous, those academic societies You will get the support of Baishengtai Temple, transform yourself into a sect, and spread it all over the world!"

"They preach as they preach, why establish a country?" Emperor Wen was annoyed.

Yang Huaxi looked at Emperor Wen with a strange look, "Brother Emperor, this is your fault. Don't be too greedy. Should the whole world belong to my Yang family? Could it be that all the people in the world should support my Yang family?" Home?"

"Why not? As long as my Yang family is a sage king, then I will obey the will of heaven, support people, and dominate the world, and I will always be favored by everyone!" Emperor Wen asked back.

"A dynasty, no matter how powerful it is, no matter how wise the emperor is, it is impossible to occupy all the luck in the world, so brother emperor, let's be sober! Brother emperor has always been a wise king, I don't doubt that, but brother emperor How many more years will you be in office?"

Emperor Wen was stunned.

He has just been promoted to the sage industry, and the sage's mentality is not yet stable, but he can already feel that his thoughts are inevitably changing.

The affairs of the court, the affairs of the royal descendants, and various state affairs have gradually become his fetters. Every day, he longs to get rid of these burdens and devote himself wholeheartedly to his practice.

"What's the attitude of Baisheng Taimiao?" Emperor Wen shook his head, his voice hoarse.

"Without Brother Huang nodding, naturally no one would say it, but..." Saint Huangji hesitated, and finally made up his mind: "But Brother Huang should be aware that there are more and more schools among scholars, and some saints organize The society is particularly powerful, its scale is getting bigger and bigger, and the Confucian scholars in the society have a common purpose... Also, in Yanzhou and Hezhou, there are already various sects among the people, and the largest sect in Yanzhou is called Qujiao , the number of people has grown to tens of thousands! Every believer is a practitioner and a scholar!"

Emperor Wen sighed.

"The imperial court can't stop this trend of thought..." Emperor Wen waved his hands, looking helpless.

Huangji sage curled his lips and said: "Brother Huang, this is the general trend. Even the Baisheng Taimiao is behind it. How dare our Yang family go against the world for the sake of one family?"

"Let me think about it again!" Emperor Wen felt a little headache, he rubbed his temples, and waved his hands to make Saint Huangji retreat.

Saint Huangji nodded, exited the study room, and went to Baishengtai Temple to meet Saint Zhenjian.Since the ascension of the Xiyi sage, the status of the Baisheng Temple has become more and more respected, and the Zhenjian sage has become the No. 1 saint.

All major events in the Baishengtai Temple require the nod of the Zhenjian sage before they can be carried out.

Sage Zhenjian talked with Sage Huangji for a while, and sighed: "Chunyang is still too impatient!"

"What does the teacher mean?"

Sage Zhenjian pointed to the river flowing through Baishengtai Temple, smiled and said nothing.

"Teacher, you want to let nature take its course?" Saint Huangji was surprised.

The sage Zhenjian nodded, "Things in the world always have a process of brewing, germination, growth, prosperity, and finally decline... The Great Kuang Dynasty has only been established for more than [-] years, and our Baishengtai Temple has only been for more than [-] years. It is very short, and the Tao is passed through the country, which is a necessary stage, and it is also the most beneficial choice at the beginning of the development of Baishengtai Temple!"

"..." Sage Huangji thought for a while, and had to agree: "The teacher is right, that's how the Dynasty and the Baisheng Taimiao came here more than four hundred years ago!"

"However, the situation is a bit different now. The world has changed over time, and there is no unchanging law in the world. If Baisheng Taimiao wants to take advantage of the general trend to surpass the past, it can only surpass the model of preaching in the country!"

The sage Zhenjian waved his hand and said with a chuckle: "Dynasty always has a lot of insightful and far-sighted talents. They can often see the small things and understand the development direction of my holy way!"

"The teacher also agrees?"

"Naturally, in recent years, the imperial dynasty has turned upside down, conquered the south and the north, and even crossed the sea to conquer Dongzhou Donglai and Izumo. There are indeed many sects in the local area. They hold the banner of the holy way and develop everywhere. I know how to grow and grow, especially the most rapid development among the barbarians is to acquire teachings!"

Saint Zhenjian paused, thought for a while and said: "Since this sect is also spreading the holy way, there is no reason to stop Baishengtai Temple. There are already many societies in Kyushu. Those sects want to develop to Kyushu. It's not easy, outside of Kyushu, let them develop. You must know that the rise of a thing always has its roots. My Baishengtai Temple only needs to see the right time and follow the trend!"

The sage Zhenjian seemed to have a plan in mind, and slowly warned Yang Huaxi.

"Then what are our plans for Baishengtai Temple?" Yang Huaxi asked hastily, his heart moved.

Saint Zhenjian nodded, took out a golden scroll from his sleeve, and handed it to Saint Huangji. Yang Huaxi took a closer look. The golden scroll described the meaning of Baisheng Taimiao's establishment of orthodoxy in the name of the holy way.

"Confucianism?" The sage Huangji was slightly surprised, "Is this the orthodox religion that my Baisheng Taimiao is about to erect?"

"That's right, didn't this become clear and clear a long time ago?" The sage of Zhenjian chuckled. The Baisheng Taimiao has spread the holy way over the years. Although there is no clear establishment of a great religion, everything it does is related to Confucian scholars all over the world. Rise and fall.

"Under the Holy Way, there is only one orthodox religion!" said Zhenjian Saint again.

"Then what about those sects in the region?" Saint Huangji was slightly taken aback.

"What do you want to do?" Zhen Jian Sheng smiled half a smile.

Saint Huangji thought for a while, and said decisively: "Banning is not the best policy. Naturally, we have to absorb it and use it for ourselves. Moreover, its existence can only be restricted within the circle I drew, and cannot be surpassed!"

Sage Zhenjian nodded, and laughed: "That's right, our Taidao Temple masters the holy way, has a respected status, and speaks and deeds from a high position. Other sects dare not disobey!"

"How to do it?"

"Sacrificing to heaven, earth and people, establish Confucianism as the orthodox religion. Under the holy way, there is only one orthodox religion. Other sects are not allowed to use the name of religion, but must be called a sect. Under the orthodox religion, hundreds of schools are allowed to coexist and spread the holy way together! "Sage Zhenjian said seriously.

"wonderful!"

Saint Huangji's eyes lit up slightly, and he didn't know what to say anymore.If Baishengtai Temple has such a regulation, the chaotic sects of the Twelve Continents of the Dynasty would dare to disobey, whoever does not obey, whoever is heretic!

The Baishengtai Temple has been established for more than [-] years and has presided over the authority of the Holy Way. This is not a bragging, but a real one.The Baishengtai Temple has that prestige and strength, and it sets the rules for the world's orthodoxy and sects.

"Today coincides with the meeting, and I will call all the saints and masters to discuss this issue!" The sage Zhenjian waved his hand, called his disciples, and ordered the saints and masters to be summoned.

At noon the next day, on the top floor of the Stone Pagoda for Learning from True Knowledge, ten saints came in person, and 120 eight masters came from all over the Twelve Continents and gathered at the stone pagoda.

Lu Yang rushed back to the capital of God from the east, and participated in the discussion in the stone pagoda.

Lu Yang didn't expect that the proposal of Zhenjian Sage would be like this, and he couldn't help being a little stunned.

He originally proposed to establish a teaching in Yanzhou, originally to divide the luck of the holy way, but he didn't expect that after a few years, the Baishengtai Temple would make such a rule that all the sects in the world would be enclosed in a circle .

According to the meaning of Baishengtaimiao, it puts "Confucianism" on the throne of the Orthodox Church, and other sects that spread the Holy Way can only be called "doors", not even the other religions.As for orthodox sects such as Heaven, Man, Martial Arts, etc., it is estimated that there can only be a "foreign teacher" or heresy.

Emperor Wen Yang Wensi, as a newly promoted sage, naturally also participated in the discussion. His mind was the most complicated. The matter of Li Zhengjiao was indeed as Lu Yang said. If it is allowed to develop, the future court will have less and less restriction on the Baishengtai Temple.

After three days of discussion, on the eighth day of August in the seventh year of Longyun, the Baishengtai Temple jointly issued an imperial edict announcing that the Baishengtai Temple would establish "Confucianism" as the only orthodox religion under the Holy Way on the Chongyang Day on the ninth day of September. Other sects are not allowed to use the name of religion, but must be called sects. Under the orthodox religion, hundreds of sects are allowed to coexist and spread the holy way together!

This decree was conveyed to the territory of Twelve Continents in less than a day, and the gold list notices were posted in the yamen of various places, and Yu Nei received the news.

All of a sudden, the news spread all over the world, and tens of thousands of scholars were shocked, some praised it, some were shocked, and some looked on with disapproval.In the imperial world, almost all scholars are talking about the tricks and influence behind the Lizheng Church of Baisheng Taimiao.

In Twelve Continents, some clever societies changed their societies to doors the next day. For example, the Haoran Academy in Shendu immediately changed to Haoran Gate. The members were afraid that the world would not know, so they printed [-] zhang propaganda The single, spread to every street and alley in the capital of God, and everyone knows it.

The Haoran Sect suddenly stole the limelight and attracted many young and newly promoted Confucians to join the Haoran Sect.

In the Twelve Continents of the Dynasty, some societies or groups changed their names one after another. Suddenly, more than 300 sects sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

Before the establishment of the Orthodox Church, hundreds of sects under the teaching rushed to Jing Cong, and the quick response left the world stunned.
