Dao fruit.

"Any field that cannot be touched by the imperial court is tantamount to being in a gray area, and this does not mean that the forces attached to the imperial court really do not intervene. On the contrary, there are no express laws in such areas. The rules are actually customized by the two parties involved.”

In the imperial study room, Li Yan, who had retired from the court meeting, sat behind the table and listened to the conversations of the ministers in front.

Although Qiu Yan is in power now, he also acts extraordinarily tough, as if he doesn't care about the customary rules at all, but in fact, many things are discussed by the chief ministers of the Zhengshitang, and then he releases them, precisely because he has persuaded the aristocratic family , The power and influence are the same for a while, so these decrees have been implemented, and the execution power is much higher than in the past.

Just like today, after Qiu Yan put forward the words of religious reform in the court hall, the monarchs and ministers discussed this matter as soon as they entered the political affairs hall.

Of course, because the emperor was limited by his vision and mind, he didn't have much say in this aspect, so he spent most of his time listening, studying, and memorizing.

Compared with the emperor, the other ministers insisted on their own opinions and expressed their own ideas according to each other's interests. This result is naturally very normal. Some agree, some have reservations, and some directly oppose of.

Faced with such a situation, Qiu Yan was not surprised, but said such words calmly.

These words immediately aroused the emperor's interest, Li Yan asked thoughtfully: "So, the fact that the imperial court has no jurisdiction does not mean that there is no order?"

Qiu Yan said with a smile: "Naturally, order can maintain the state. Any thing or field that does not disappear immediately must also have order, and the root of order is living beings. Specifically, in Darui, it is an individual, a family. One by one sect, one by one various organizations, some things, the court does not get involved, it does not mean that the interests are really given up, on the contrary, there are often many forces attached to the court, and the power of the court is used as the Deterrence, self-intervention."

While speaking, his eyes swept over several other ministers.I noticed that some of them changed face, but now that Qiu Yan has suppressed even the family, what power is there to stop what he wants to say?

"At the court meeting before, I talked about letting go of the interests. If I didn't occupy it, how would I let it go? This has actually touched the interests of some people, so some people immediately jumped out to object. In fact, the minister has always believed that there are some things. No matter how the imperial court blocked it, it would be useless, because people's hearts are selfish, which is the law of nature. And blindly prohibiting it is tantamount to deceiving one's ears and stealing the bell, just closing one's eyes and not looking at it. In the end, it can only create a gray area. The correct approach should be It is to preserve the principles of nature and eliminate human desires. Standardize reasonable selfishness, isolate and stimulate the power of progress, and at the same time restrain the excess, so that some gray areas are brought under the sun."

"But in this way, there may not be too many changes?" Li Yan was still a little unclear for a while.

"No, the change is too big, because the law can govern!" Qiu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and flicked his fingers, "Everything, when there is no law, comes from an unpredictable situation. If someone violates it, the strong will win. This is the law of the jungle that weeds out the weak and retains the strong. Weak people can also live in peace and stability. Today's human nature is still developing, so it is natural to follow the example of the past, find dark places, restrain the hearts of beasts, and with the intervention of express laws, even the most unscrupulous people are in violation. Sometimes, he will know that what he is doing is wrong. Even if he is not afraid, even if he sneers, he has established a benchmark in the hearts of the world. Lost grounds for governance."

Speaking of this, Qiu Yan shook his head and said: "People's hearts are the key. What the Tianxia School seeks is nothing more than to shape people's hearts. At critical moments, only this kind of people's hearts connected by benchmarks can condense and explode. the power it deserves."

The faces of the many butlers were different, but Li Yan seemed to understand something. He only felt that Qiu Yan's words contained a lot of meaning, and it was difficult to understand them all at once. He needed to go back and deliberate. He made a decision: "Since Master Qiu has made a decision, I will support it, but will the heretical leaders of that sect really be called?"

"It's okay, I have my own way," Qiu Yan said with a grin, "Of course, the premise is that they get out of the dust."

………………

Three days later, around Guanfeng Island in the East China Sea, the dense sand and dust that had been pervading for several days gradually scattered and settled, revealing the scene in it again.

Lin Dingtian, who had already led troops to surround this area of ​​water, came by boat as soon as he received the news. He also came with him, and he was transferred from the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion just two days ago. The seven priests who came over.

The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies was originally a place where the imperial court recruited extraordinary people, many of whom were highly cultivated, able to practice with the help of dragon energy, and had the dynasty's accumulation for support, so when it comes to combat power, it is not weaker than any other family. Daomen, come forward at this time, just in case.

"I don't know, what will these Niubi's reactions be when they know Dingguohou's order?"

Before the boat arrived at the island, behind Lin Dingtian, there were two lieutenants talking in a low voice. Both of them were Jiedu envoys from the surrounding military towns. It seems that it is nothing at all. This time, the order of Ding Guohou, who has the right in the court, came, and the result is not optimistic.

"These are not things we can worry about. Bring the words to us, ask about the current situation and situation, and figure out whether it is really someone from outside the day who invaded, and then we can return with peace of mind."

With such thoughts in mind, Lin Dingtian and his party sailed safely into the originally closed sea area. In the depths of the sea area, the signs of sand and dust had not yet completely dispersed, and there were still a lot of gravel floating on the water surface. People have a bleak atmosphere.

However, this mood of breath is different from Lin Dingtian's original expectation.

"Strange, there are not many traces left after the battle here. What's going on? This time, the ancestors of Jiuquan, Venerable Huaxue and others gathered in the gate. If such people do something, it must be overwhelming. This piece of water There will definitely be traces left in it, why now..."

Such doubts continued until he landed on the wind-watching island and met several Taoist masters.

As soon as they set foot on the island, Lin Dingtian and the others sensed a different aura. The atmosphere of the entire island was very depressing. The monks along the way all looked dignified, looking at Lin Dingtian and the others, which brought them heavy pressure.

It can be said that the people Lin Dingtian brought to the island are all elites in the army. Under the necklace of energy and blood, they form a moving military formation, covering everyone, can isolate the breath of supernatural powers, and with the blessing of dragon energy, they are facing the master. People at the top level can also bear it, but it will be affected in the mind to some extent. Now the island is full of monks, and when their eyes gather, the thoughts of the people's hearts follow, which naturally creates heavy pressure.

Lin Dingtian was not surprised by this, but what really concerned him was that there were no traces of fights on this island, and there were not many signs of people from outside the sky coming.

"Could it be that the previous judgment was wrong? It's not someone from outside the sky, but an internal strife in the Taoist sect?"

Just as Lin Dingtian was guessing secretly, a group of people from the island also came over. Looking around, they could see the figures of Jiuquan Patriarch and others. Amazement.

Before they landed on the island, they gave a notice, and most of the people on the island are people with amazing supernatural powers. They can feel it from a few miles away. They know that they are people from the imperial court. Now they are assembled and greeted. Accident.

But at this time, the leader was Taoist Feiji of Fengling Dao, so Lin Dingtian had to be surprised. Although he was in the army and inherited from a military family, he had many hands and was well-informed. Just know it by heart, and you can tell it at a glance.

But he also knows that the final inheritance of the Taoist sect is the key to maintaining the centripetal force and order of the sect. Even the two sects, there are divisions of seniority and seniority between the two sects, which will not be easily broken, especially at this time. It's not Jiuquan Patriarch, but although his cultivation base is high, his seniority is not high. At this time, no matter what, it is not his turn to preside over it.

However, although I was puzzled in my heart, it was inconvenient to point it out. When those people approached, an invisible coercion enveloped them and fell on a kind of officers and soldiers, making them shake and turn pale.

Lin Dingtian's expression was normal, he stepped forward two steps, greeted in a business-like manner, the two parties had no friendship at all, and after a simple exchange of greetings, they got down to business.

"What does the general mean, is that the imperial court ordered me to wait for the head of the sect, the head teacher, and the elders to go to the capital to meet the Marquis of Dingguo?" After Lin Dingtian finished speaking, Taoist Feiji really spoke and asked stand up.

Seeing this, Lin Dingtian became more and more puzzled, but he also understood that the other party would not agree easily, so he said: "It's not just the intention of Marquis Dingguo alone, but he will preside over it. This matter is subject to the approval of all the princes in the court. Your Majesty It has also been agreed." This errand is always carried out by him, and what should be done is still to be done. At this time, it is necessary to use dynastic orthodoxy to create pressure.

"Okay! Since it is the order of Marquis Dingguo, I shall obey it!" Unexpectedly, the ancestor of Jiuquan flashed a little light in his eyes, and he responded directly, and the others nodded one after another.

"I hope some good students will think about it. After all, it is the intention of the court, and all the princes in the court are quite sincere. Maybe this trip can make the Taoist sect get rid of the heresy... En? Layman Jiuquan, what did you say?"

Lin Dingtian had expected that Daomen would not agree easily, so he prepared a set of arguments with his staff, and then subconsciously said it, and when he was halfway through, the words stopped abruptly! (To be continued..)
