Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 771

However, with the lesson of being snubbed by Wang Xiu last time, good things come true for Ouyang Che, and Wang's advice, Qin Hui is much more cautious, hiding in the inner courtyard under the guise of illness, and letting others dismiss everything.

He was like Ming Jing in his heart. Wang Xiu and Zhao Chen were fighting, and the outcome was absolutely unpredictable. It was too early to make a decision. He needed to look at the situation again.

The war in the north is still going on, but it is limited to small fights. Today you will burn and kill hundreds of people, and tomorrow thousands of people in our region will retaliate. There is nothing new.

The ruling and opposition parties were almost certain that the day when the North-South alliance was concluded would be the time when Tang Ge resigned. Li Gang was unlikely to enter the capital hall to worship peace, and only Qin Hui had the qualifications to reach the top.

Tang Ge will retire to a large county in the next few years. Tan Shiji is an old scholar, known as a good minister, and he is reluctant to be in power. After the showdown, the most powerful candidate for prime minister.

Because he maintains a very balanced relationship between Zhao Chen and Wang Xiu, and even in the entire court, he can be recognized by various forces.

This is also the main reason why Zhao Chen made his dissatisfaction with Wang Xiu public and his mansion was crowded.

The second obvious signal of the openness of conflicts between monarchs and ministers is that Chen Dong was given a banquet by the inner court and moved to Sanlang Zhijianyuan.Interested people immediately understood that Zhao Chen used Chen Dong's reputation to control the remonstrance court to attack Wang Xiu, which was a good move.

However, some people dismissed it, who is Chen Shaoyang?That is a recognized stubborn head!A guy who admits death, take him as a confidant, just don't make trouble for you, and expect him to be able to do things, it's appropriate to be a storyteller, many people are very disappointed with Zhao Chen's ability to employ people.

It seems that Wang Xiu didn't take Zhao Chen's provocation to heart, and he was still acting as usual, but his family members could feel his anxiety, often alone in the study room, and sometimes even the sound of porcelain breaking in the middle of the night .

Li Gang had a vague premonition that as the rumors about tennis and Zhu Lian erupted and intensified the conflict between the monarch and his subjects, the two sides would inevitably decide the winner.

He was both gratified and worried about Zhao Chen. It is right for the emperor to take back important military affairs and weaken the power of his officials.It's just that Wang Xiu's power and prestige are too great. Even if he has no heresy ideas, who can guarantee that the people around him have no ideas. Isn't the emperor Yizu just added the yellow robe to win the Chai family?

However, he is very entangled. After years of contact and understanding, he can understand Wang Xiutuqiang's painstaking efforts, and he also believes that Zhao Chen is not the ZTE monarch.In the next 20 years, the Great Song Dynasty without Wang Xiu can continue to develop, and can even develop very well. There is no need to worry about life and death, but the situation of prosperity may no longer exist. It should be said that there is no one in the court who can completely replace Wang Xiu.

The stability of the throne is of course what he wants, but Wang Xiu's ability to govern is something he can't bear to give up. When Zhao Chen came to win over with goodwill, he didn't make any statement.

However, he said lightly: "Wang Wenshi devoted himself to the affairs of the country, and served the official family as the master of Zhongxing for all ages. I hope your majesty will follow it well!"

Just when the situation was meeting and everyone had their own thoughts, Zhong Lirui was sitting in the clean room of Shangqing Yunxiao and discussing the Tao with Master Yunhao of the Jindannan School. .

Master Yunhao was preaching the moral scriptures, and the gesture of spitting out lotus flowers was not as good as the golden lotus in the sky!It really has that fairy look.

"Old Taoist, do you think there are immortals in the world?" Zhong Lirui disdains that, but the essence of Taoism makes him obsessed with it.

"Believe it or not." Daoist Yun Hao said indifferently, with a slender beard and a thin withered face, he has a fairy air!

Zhong Liqiu had a toothache. Nima, he is really like a fortune teller on the street. He said that he didn't say anything. He couldn't help shaking his head and laughing: "Old man, you are really cunning. If you want to say whether there are immortals in the world, I dare not have them." In conclusion, I just feel that the theories of Taoism are complicated, there are nine heavens in heaven, and there are 33 days, but they are not as incisive as Buddhism's sudden enlightenment."

"The layman still studies Buddhism?" Master Yun Hao twitched his eyebrows when he heard about Buddhism, and squinted at Zhong Lirui.

"I've been with you for a long time, so I've heard a lot. The theory of the heavens is chaotic, the immortality is inexplicable, and each family refuses to give in to each other. It's really incomprehensible. No wonder the Buddhist sect can't be suppressed even after trying their best." Zhong Lirui said contemptuously. Taking a look at Master Yunhao, he really looks down on Taoist factions fighting each other.

The corner of Master Yunhao’s mouth twitched. His words were definitely a slap in the face, but he couldn’t deny that since Buddhism flourished in the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty ushered in its peak, it is also the heyday now.

It is a pity that the Taoist sect has too much internal friction. Except for the absolute advantage during the Xuanhe period, it is almost impossible to resist the development of Buddhism. The sphere of influence of the Taoist sect has been continuously eroded. Rebuttals can't be done either.

"My lord is right. The good sage's theory was made into a mess by the crooked Taoist priests, and was finally beaten to pieces by outsiders. No wonder the captives and Qiang were rampant." Zhong Lirui's words were full of irony.

Daoist Yun Hao's head was full of black lines, staring at Zhong Lirui and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wang is a great talent, and he is too good at the door. Naturally, he can't be compared with wild Taoists like me."

"The Supreme Being is different from the Theory of Nine Heavens." Zhong Lirui said inexplicably.

Master Yun Hao frowned slightly, and said puzzledly: "I would like to hear the details."

"The theory of the nine heavens is that there are nine levels in the sky, the divine night is the highest, and the Great Heavenly Emperor and the Sifang Great Emperor live there. Then you put the Daoist Sanqing... oh, where should the Daoist Sanqing be placed?" Zhong Lirui suddenly noticed a slip of the tongue, but he didn't It's a slip of the tongue.

Master Yun Hao is also an old man, he was already muttering about Zhong Lirui's reason for coming, but this is the master of the Three Treasures Palace.Today, he actually patiently discussed with him, could the rumors about Wang Xiu be controlled?It was obviously impossible, so he couldn't help asking: "Why did the layman teach me?"

"It's not my servant, but my lord." Zhong Lirui heard the question from Master Yun Hao, and knew that the other party had some insights, so let's get to the point!His time is also very precious, so I can't waste it anymore.

"Oh, Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate."

"The Taoist sect is weak and the Buddhism is prosperous because there are many factions that refuse to give in to each other. The three thousand ways are unified, there is no orthodoxy, and if the teachings of various schools are not included, the decline of the Taoist sect is inevitable."

"It makes sense." Master Yun Hao nodded slightly, quietly waiting for Zhong Liqiu's next words.

"As your lord said, the Son of Heaven was first opened, Pan Gu transformed all things, Hongjun passed it on, established a Taoist sect to divide Buddhism and Taoism, and the lack of Taoism is the Taoist ancestor and Taoist protector."

"Ancestor of Dao?" Daoist Yun Hao's eyes lit up, as if he had realized something.
