Back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Chapter 559 Secretly disintegrating the enemy's strength

Before this, Yuan Yao had never made the teaching of sentient beings public, and even Xu Shu had never told it.

Wei Yan's attitude towards the Sect of All Beings in Jiaozhou was only to let outsiders know that Wei Yan supported the Sentences Sect, and maybe they also speculated that Wei Yan had cooperated with the Sentences Sect, but no one would have guessed that the Sentences Sect was actually established by Wei Yan secretly, let alone Dare to imagine, the highest status envoy in All Beings Sect is the current Prime Minister Yuan Yao.

"Yuan Zhi, have you ever heard of the Sect of All Beings?" Yuan Yao showed a mysterious smile.

"My lord! You... you mean the Sect of All Beings? Could it be that the lord wants to use... the Cultivation of Sentient Beings? Hiss...!" Xu Shu was surprised, and couldn't believe his ears.

"Yes! That's exactly what I mean, so I want to hear your opinion on the Sect of All Beings!" Yuan Yao nodded.

Xu Shu took another breath of cold air, his eyes widened, and after confirming that Yuan Yao was not joking, his expression turned serious.

"My lord, the Sect of All Beings is developing extremely fast now! How can my subordinates not know that in the past two months, my subordinates have secretly investigated some matters related to the Sect of All Beings. According to the investigation information, the Sect of Sentient Beings is indeed the one I admire the most. The second sect, of course, as you know the first one, is Taoism!" Xu Shu said.

"Well, that's right. Taoism deserves to be the number one religion in the Han Dynasty. It's just a pity that since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, because of the Taiping Dao, the court has changed its face when talking about Taoism!" Yuan Yao nodded, and said with some regret.

When Xu Shu first came to vote for Yuan Yao, he was a Taoist. Yuan Yao still remembers Xu Shu's Taoist robe at that time, and even pretended to be the old fairy of Nanhua in order to make his generals respect Xu Shu. Later, because of need, Xu Shu He also took off his Taoist robe and put on a scholar's robe.

"Unexpectedly, Taoism can't beat Buddhism, or even a sect that has just emerged..." Xu Shu sighed softly, his eyes lit up, and quickly said: "My lord, if the Sect of All Beings can always adhere to this purpose, it is indeed true. It can benefit the country and the people, on the one hand, it can help the imperial court appease the suffering people and make the world stable;

"If the lord wants to use the Sect of All Beings, the subordinates think it is feasible, but they must master the method well, and must not give too much power to the Sentences Sect, otherwise, once the Sentences Sect gains power, it may have a negative impact on the lord's rule!" Xu Shu said.

"Yuan Zhi, I think it's time to tell you one thing. In fact, the Sect of All Beings was founded by Wei Yan himself, and I am the envoy of the Sect of All Beings who has never shown up!" Yuan Yao said calmly.

"What!!! Wei Yan..., this...?" Xu Shu instantly petrified, "...My lord! You, are you really... an envoy of God?"

At this time, Yang Wu, who had been accompanying Yuan Yao, clasped his fists to Xu Shu and explained: "Xu Changshi, this matter was not made public at the time, and in order not to cause any bad influence, my lord was just holding it for a try at first." Thoughts, I didn't expect Wei Yan to actually set up a sect of sentient beings, after such a long investigation, the lord decided to disclose the matter among the internal core members!"

Yuan Yao patted Xu Shu on the shoulder and said, "Yuan Zhi, I never thought that a sect could be so powerful, but since it has started, I can't let it go off the track and make it a real profit." The good religion of the country and the people needs your support!"

"My lord, does anyone else know about this matter?" Xu Shu said.

"No, apart from a few high-level members of the All Beings Sect, even my father and father-in-law don't know about this in Pingyu City, and you are the first to know the truth besides me and Yang Wu!" Yuan Yao said.

"Thank you, my lord, for your trust!" Xu Shu was greatly moved, and bowed deeply, "My lord, I think this matter should continue to be kept secret. Sometimes the more mysterious something is, the easier it is for the people to believe it. As far as the court is concerned, If we directly disclose the identity of the lord, we will definitely be opposed by scholars all over the world!"

Yuan Yao couldn't help being surprised, knowing that the status of Confucianism must not be shaken, he asked anxiously: "Yuan Zhi, but Confucianism can't solve the practical difficulties of the people, in your opinion, how should we use the teaching of all beings to satisfy Confucianism? Make the people satisfied?"

Xu Shu pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "My lord, first of all, your identity must not be made public in a short period of time. The less people know, the better. Secondly, you can define the Sect of All Living Beings as an orthodox sect in the name of the government, and allow others to identify you." For the normal development of congregants, order the states not to suppress them and give them some protection. Finally, they can secretly order All Beings to increase the rewards for congregants who voluntarily immigrate to Jiaozhou! And provide a small amount of money and food support so that the people can live and work in Jiaozhou smoothly. "

"Okay! Yuanzhi, your suggestion is in line with my idea, but on the third point, I have a small improvement. The teaching of all beings can implement loans within the teaching, and lend to the members in the early stage, but in the later stage The members of the congregation must return their principal and interests to the sect, so that the Sect of All Beings can develop better! Otherwise, the Sect of All Beings will not be able to support it after running out of money and food." Yuan Yao said.

"My lord is wise!!" Xu Shu nodded, and then asked again: "My lord's method can indeed solve the survival problem of a part of the refugees and relieve the pressure on Yuzhou. What is the second method of my lord?"

"Hehe! Of course it's a war!!! I plan to get rid of the crime of disobedience, conquer Liu Biao, and take Jingzhou!! However, it's not now, but two months later, when the hot weather However, the plague has not spread so badly, and it is time for us to attack!" Yuan Yao said.

To attack Jingzhou, the first place that must be contested is Nanyang.

However, because Nanyang was attacked by Zhang Ji's army, a large number of dead bodies were left behind, and the plague brought by Zhang Ji's army from Guanzhong spread rapidly in Nanyang, and the plague in Yuzhou spread from Nanyang!
June and July are the two hottest months of the year. In this kind of weather, it is not suitable to attack Nanyang.

……

After returning to Taolin Mansion

Yuan Yao had a smile on his face all the time, everything went well recently, and the next two months will also be the time for Yuan Yao to enjoy a very expensive and glorious life.

Ma Teng and his son, who had been worried all the time, did not express their dissatisfaction with Yuan Yao. On the contrary, they still praised Yuan Yao in front of outsiders.

Ma Chao was left in Pingzhou by Yuan Yao. This was to give full play to the ability of Ma Chao's Xiliang cavalry to resist the Xianbei cavalry and Yuan Shao in the north.

The front yard of Taolin Mansion, where hundreds of relatives once crowded here, has also improved.

A large part of the entourage moved out of Taolin Mansion. Although they are no longer entourages, they have all been greatly promoted. The soldiers who were at the bottom of the entourage originally moved out, and among the other armies, they were the lowest. He also became the trilogy general leading a hundred people!

And after moving out, their crowded room has now become several connected suites, enough to accommodate their wives and children!

The more than one hundred entourages left behind also had more rooms because of this change, and they took their families to live in Taolin Mansion one after another.

As soon as Yuan Yao entered the mansion, all he could hear were the laughter of children and the sound of respectful greetings.
