The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 185 The Temple
It is an indisputable fact that no one can beat a martial arts master fighting alone.

Jin Yiwei has a wealth of actual combat experience, and no one can match the experience of team battles. This is their advantage.

Do you think it is a bit nondescript to compare a martial arts master with a group of professional soldiers?

This is not just a sentence that Zhao Xu said to comfort Dong Zhenhai, but also from the heart, and it is absolutely true.

"Oh, I see." Dong Zhenhai scratched his head with his big palm-like hands, pretending to have suddenly realized.

"Prince, I understand what you said. This is the so-called short and strong. Mr. Miao told me about this."

Zhao Xu also felt that it was impossible for a person like Dong Zhenhai to say such a gorgeous thing. The reason was that Miao Xun taught him.

The ruler is short and the inch is long, this sentence is really very appropriate and appropriate here.

"Your boy has really improved, not bad." Zhao Xu was full of praise for him. Dong Zhenhai's ability to say this proves that he has improved.

Comrade Dong Zhenhai, who was praised, seemed a little shy, and scratched his head in embarrassment, looking very cute.

This simple and honest look made the other two people present burst into laughter, and the atmosphere became much more cheerful for a while.

"From the tone of the old man, you seem to already know who they are or what organization they belong to?"

Hearing his tone just now, it seems that he has been with this organization for many years, and he seems to be an old opponent.

"Prince, have you heard of the organization of the Temple?" The old man suddenly asked such a question.

Zhao Xu really hadn't heard of the temple, it sounds like a very decent organization, but this time he really guessed wrong, and it was a very wrong type.

"It's normal that the prince has never heard of this. After all, you are not from the Jianghu. Even if you are from the Jianghu, there are not many people who can know this."

The old man was not surprised that Zhao Xu didn't know about this organization, but he would be really surprised if Zhao Xu knew about this organization.

Dong Zhenhai's eyes were as wide as a bull's-eye beside him, and he didn't know what it was.

Then the old man began to slowly solve the mystery for Zhao Xu, and it took a long time to finish.

"Liu Qinhu, you immediately order to investigate this organization, just follow what I just said!"

Zhao Xu ordered Liu Qinhu to investigate the situation of the temple. According to what the old man said, Zhao Xu speculated and made a plan to investigate this organization.

This so-called holy temple was originally established in the early Tang Dynasty, so it was only a few hundred years ago.

It was originally an organization established by Tang Taizong Li Shimin, which was responsible for handling affairs in the Jianghu.

Because many of the generals who helped Li Shimin and others fight the country were born in the rivers and lakes, and people like Cheng Zhijie and Qin Shubao all came from a place called Wagang.

These people all became the founding heroes of the Tang Dynasty in the end, and all of them made great military exploits, and their official positions were higher than those of the orthodox generals.

Li Shimin lamented these fierce generals, but also increased his fear of people in the Jianghu. He didn't want to see so many fierce generals appearing in the Jianghu again to threaten his rule of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, Li Shimin secretly set up an organization to meet these people in the Jianghu, and if they have the slightest misconduct, they will be punished on the spot.

Later, this organization came more and more, and slowly changed its name to the temple, and became an existence similar to a law enforcement officer.

It is worth mentioning that this temple is in the hands of successive emperors, and other people have no way to get in touch with this mysterious temple.

I don't even know his true face of Lushan, it is a mysterious existence, but people only know about this organization later.

It was Wu Zetian who abolished his son after the death of Tang Gaozong Li Zhi and became emperor himself.

Only then did she know that there was such a mysterious existence, and at the same time she was surprised by his powerful strength. If she hadn't become the emperor, she would not have known about it.

Just at this time, the grandson of Li Ji, a loyal supporter of Datang, Li Ji is Xu Maogong, and his grandson is Xu Jingye.

Xu Jingye was very dissatisfied with Wu Zetian's actions, so he raised troops to attack Wu Zetian in Yangzhou, playing the banner of Li Tang.

Later, Xu Jingye failed. We all know that because he was not as clever as Wu Zetian, and in the end he lost the title of the British Duke of his ancestors.

But how many people know that Wu Zetian used the power of this temple to assassinate Xu Jingye's leading general at that time.

For a while, the command of the army was chaotic, which led to a serious decline in combat effectiveness. This was the most important reason for his failure.

When the old man talked about this, he had a question, that is, since Li Tang's emperor has such a powerful force, how could he be replaced?
Think about it, too, with such great strength, how could he be killed by others, how could it not be confusing!

Holding such a secret force in your hands, you can't say that the world is invincible, at least there is absolutely no problem with self-protection.

But in fact, Li Tang was wiped out later by others, and the once tyrannical Datang disappeared in smoke.

A large part of the reason for this is that Li Tang's emperor no longer controls this power, but is controlled by other people.

During the "Anshi Rebellion", Prince Li Heng, the son of Tang Xuanzong, came to the throne, and Li Longji was respected as the Supreme Emperor, and Li Heng was Tang Suzong.

So he was supported by a mutiny, not his father, Li Longji, who passed the throne to him, so he didn't know that the emperor still had this thing.

But there is one person who knows that he is the Sima of the Marshal's Mansion of Emperor Suzong of Tang Dynasty. In fact, he is an eunuch.

Because of his participation in several major events, he gained the trust of the prince, constantly wanted to be promoted, and began to gain military power.

Later, he supported Tang Suzong's son as Daizong, was canonized as Sikong and concurrently served as Zhongshuling.

He got this information by accident, somehow, he actually got hold of this temple, and began to use it to constantly eradicate dissidents.

The eunuch has everything but lacks one thing. In addition, he entered the palace from a young age and has no heirs, so his heart is a bit dark.

To put it bluntly, it is a psychopath. There is no doubt about this. Psychopaths usually use other means to make up for this defect.

Therefore, he is full of desire for power. He is the elder of the two dynasties, and he is very proud of having such a force supporting him.

He has truly achieved it in the imperial court. Those who follow me will prosper, those who oppose me will perish, and the power is in the hands of the government and the public. No one dares to compete with him.

At that time, the prime minister and all the officials had to go through Fuguo to meet the emperor except for their daily visits. If he was unhappy, the prime minister would not be able to see the emperor either.

He was still worried about this, and Li Fuguo even set up a "supervisory office" for this purpose, and dozens of people were all his cronies.

Relying on this institution to monitor the activities of officials, as long as the official makes a slight mistake, he will order the relevant personnel to be arrested immediately.

Jingzhao Mansion, county magistrates and judiciary judge cases are all decided by him.The issuance of the edict will also be implemented after he signs it, and the subordinates dare not criticize it.

It was completely like an emperor. It is said that Li Kui, the prime minister at the time, treated him as a child and called him "Five Fathers".It can be seen that its power is great.

These are not because of how big his official position is, nor because of how favored he is, but because he has a well-known but very secret power.

Even daring to wantonly arrest and kill people in broad daylight is not only blatant, but also shows who I am.

As an eunuch, he has no offspring at all, so after he was stabbed to death, all his strength was taken over by a little eunuch.

In the future, this situation will be extremely common. Why the eunuchs have such a strong monopoly in the late Tang Dynasty is not because these eunuchs have power in their hands.

The emperor was not reconciled to his power being emptied, but what could they do, their strength was not as good as those eunuchs who had no birds in their crotches.

In the late Tang Dynasty, several emperors were ordered to be poisoned to death by eunuchs, which shows how courageous they are.

The temple is so unscrupulous, and the eunuchs rely on this temple to move around in the late Tang and Tang Dynasties.

When Zhao Xu heard this, he was so angry that he wrote to the birdman, no, it was the people without birds who just defeated the last bit of luck in the Tang Dynasty.

No wonder the late Tang Dynasty was full of eunuch disasters. It seems that it is quite correct to give power out of the barrel of a gun.

With great strength, the only thing you can't do in the temple is the guns in their hands, Zhao Xu firmly remembered this.

At that time, Zhao Xu still had doubts, since these eunuchs were so awesome, why all those birdless guys were killed in a coup by General Zhu Wen in the end.

The old man smiled and said that it was because Zhu Wen himself was a member of the temple, and he was dissatisfied with what the eunuchs did.

I only planned to catch all these people in one go. These people were originally Zhu Wen's subordinates, so of course they listened to him.

Zhu Wen and the others liquidated all these people with lightning speed, and they themselves usurped the Tang Dynasty.

However, Zhu Wen could not control these forces, and no one was willing to listen to him, which also led to the rapid demise of Zhu Wen's Liang Dynasty.

But the temple did not cut off the inheritance, but became more mysterious. No one knew what kind of organization it was, and no one knew who their leader was?

But by chance, the old man found out about this so-called temple organization, which surprised him even more.

But somehow they found out, and since then began an endless life of chasing and killing. Fortunately, the old man is good at martial arts, and there has been no major incident.

Therefore, there are certain benefits to being strong in martial arts. There is no doubt about it. The old man has saved himself from danger many times by virtue of his superb martial arts.
