Chapter four hundred and eighty seventh: smash, smash, smash
Chapter 487: Smash, smash, smash
The fragrance filled the air, and there were various livestock, fruits and vegetables on dozens of large altars. The black crowd was crowded with people, like black waves.
Everyone held their breath and looked devoutly at the golden painted venerable in front of the altar. The venerable was ten feet tall and faced everyone. He was carved like a lifelike carving. He was wearing a special fairy dress and a purple cloud crown. He sat on the futon, looking majestic and solemn, giving people a feeling of fairy style.
Under the altar was an old man wearing a black Taoist robe. The old man looked plain, but his eyes were quite deep. He solemnly burned incense and prayed to the statue of the Venerable. After wiping the incense, he said quietly: "The way of heaven is unfair. Once the heaven comes to the world, he will kill demons and eliminate demons, and the universe is bright."
After saying that, he went to the side to rest with the support of several fairy children; then the people wearing Taoist robes came out and burned incense to pray, with a solemn expression. They walked behind the old man one by one, and silently looked at the sacrifices of later generations.
The Tianyi Sect respects the Emperor of Heaven. The so-called Emperor of Heaven is the Jade Emperor of Xuanqiong. This old man is Xu Shenfu. Xu Shenfu is already quite old and is born strong. He practiced in Taoist temples since he was a child. He not only practiced Xuan, but also liked to read miscellaneous books. Therefore, he not only knows Taoist classics, but also is very proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. After Zhao Ji ascended the throne, because he was famous, he summoned him to the capital and became a guest of the Yumen to talk to him about the Tao.
Those years were the most glorious time when Xu Shenfu was named Xuan Shi, but he learned a lot and was full of ambitions in his heart. Zhao Ji trusted him very much and gave him official positions several times, but he deliberately refused to accept it. However, later, Zhao Ji was weak in his mind about Tan Xuan, and he accepted the official position. Zhao Ji treated him well and gave him a chance to become a chief official.
Xu Shenfulong entered the deep sea, like a fish in water, and immediately planned the Tianyi Sect, originally just to consolidate his position. But who knew that due to his official position, the Tianyi Sect was very prosperous, and its tentacles had penetrated into the entire Jingji North Road, reaching an omnipresent level.
Originally, Xu Shenfu had no intention of rebelling, but later, Cai You's defeat made him alert. He was introduced by Cai Tao, and the big tree fell, so he, a macaque, would probably suffer. Besides, his official position as a priest who was a master of the control of the land was the saint. Now the saint's family has become nothing and is even more and more rejected. He is afraid that he will be driven home in less than a year.
Xu Shenfu thought about it all the time and was unwilling to accept it, so he simply took advantage of the Tianyi Sect to start the matter.
At this time, Xu Shenfu closed his eyes and saw more and more believers kneeling down and praying for peace to the Emperor of Heaven. His face, which had always been expressionless, couldn't help but smile.
Rebellion was a beheading act, but after he pulled the flag, the court sent troops to encircle and suppress it. The horse army commander was about to collapse. It turned out that the elite of the Song Dynasty was just like this. He almost let go of his heart, at least there was no need to worry for the moment.
A man in Taoism came over beside him and whispered to Xu Shenfu: "Immortal, the lobbyist named Shen Ao, who is surnamed Wu, is making trouble again. You must see the minister."
Xu Shenfu said nothing, but looked at the statue of the Emperor of Heaven. After a while, he said quietly: "Let's leave it alone, don't pay attention."
The man in Taoist hesitated for a moment and said hesitantly: "The immortal... the one named Wu said that if we ignore him again, the disaster will come every day, and the border troops and imperial guards from all walks of life have gathered, and they will take action."
Xu Shenfu smiled contemptuously: "I don't know how to live or die, can you scare people with this?" Then he was a little confused: "It's a bit meaningful to say this. Is it just that I want to scare my Tianyi Sect without any silence? Could it be that the new imperial envoy is really sincere?"
The man in Taoist clothes also said in confusion: "Immortals, how could they let us establish a vassal and praise the ministers? This northern road of the capital is not Dali in Xixia, nor in the border area. I have called him a minister, but I am afraid they will move the capital."
Xu Shenfu raised his eyes slowly: "They are trying to buy time. The current situation is changing, the wars are constantly happening in Jin and Liao, and Xixia is ready to move again. Once the Jin people enter the pass, if Jin Xia attacks Song, what will the Song Dynasty resist? So they are unwilling to make a big splash, so they must comfort us first." He thought for a while and said: "It's good to comfort, they must buy time. My Tianyi Sect also needs time. Go, ask the disciples of Bianjing to pay attention and collect more letters from the new imperial envoy to send them. I want to see, Chen Ao, Chen Lengzi, Chen Shaxing, this person is very interesting."
The man in Taoism nodded and bowed, "Disciple, go now."
After the people wearing Taoist clothes prayed like a lantern, the bustling people bowed down one after another, kowtowed devoutly to the statue of the Emperor of Heaven, and the crowd gathered into the waves, which was magnificent.
Xu Shenfumu had an expression, but his eyes fell on the southward sky.

I don’t know when the city of Bianjing became lively, and the sales of Zhiwen Chronicles increased significantly. First, the weekly magazine kept publishing some banned words, which made people feel fresh. Although Suiya Weekly sometimes talked about some discussions, the length was not large, and the words were mostly gentle. Zhiwen Chronicles were different. When there were some movements, they immediately discussed them, which was extremely unscrupulous. Most of the words were generous, so they were naturally favored.
In fact, everyone is talking about this matter, and they think that Suiya Weekly and Zhiwen Chronicles seem to be on the rise. The comments made by both sides are opposite. For example, a strange thing happened in Beijing a few days ago. A wife of a certain mansion had an affair with a slave, and the slave was killed by a war. Jingzhao Mansion ignored it. Suiya Weekly said that the court had its own laws and affair was one thing, so of course the government should deal with it, but it was not necessary to abuse lynching. It was only necessary to send it to the official to strictly handle it.
As a result, the next day, Na Zhiwen Ji also made a discussion and directly sang a counter-topic with Suiya Weekly. The ending of the article was even more interesting. It was said that Suiya Weekly was a woman's agent. No wonder he made such a comment, and said something like the male Yang ***, which was a big mockery.
When someone was interested, he immediately became energetic. This was almost pointing at someone's nose and scolding. Who is this woman? He knew this in his heart. It was Mrs. Chuner who had just returned from the Shen family after the New Year. This woman was smart and capable. She managed the business of the Shen family. Although Zhiwen Ji was obscure, it was not true that there were not many men in the Shen family, and she wanted a woman to show up in public?
In addition to this, there are also the matter of advancing troops. Recently, there have been more and more memorials from the court, all of whom are asking the Ma Junsi to advance quickly. They made a lot of talks and made a lot of noise. They said that the court discussions in recent days have also been very fierce. The official sat behind the imperial case, and was quarreled by a group of ministers so that they didn't say anything, and left with his hands.
Zhiwen Zhiqiu vigorously praised the officials who made generous speeches, and said that what would happen if they did not advance now. He commented on it and caused heated discussions among the public. As for Suiya Weekly, he was quite afraid of this matter and did not say anything.
Therefore, the sales of Suiya Weekly dropped sharply in Bianjing, and the Chronicles of Knowledge are becoming more and more popular. However, the sales of Suiya Weekly are not too low now. After all, Bianjing is just a sales point for Suiya Weekly. Due to the expansion of several printing workshops in Hangzhou and the cooperation of carriages and horse businesses, Bianjing has not even sold 10% of the sales for Suiya Weekly. Although there are fewer readers, it has not lost all its business.
But this incident is becoming more and more worrying. Chun'er was the first to get the news. Although she had seen some storms and waves, she still couldn't make up her mind when encountering such a thing. She had to write a letter from home and send it to Chen Ao with recent news and chronicles, asking him to make up his mind.
Chen Ao read the letter from home and read Zhiwen Ji again, and became angry. The rest was fine. What he couldn't stand was the article that alluded to Chun'er in Zhiwen Ji. He was so angry that he immediately tore up the weekly magazine. Then he curled his lips and said, "I just came out a few days ago, and you went to the room to remove the tiles; if you don't give you some color, just think that my surname is Chen is easy to bully?"
Without saying a word, he immediately found paper and wrote quickly, and asked someone to send it back.
Bocheng is not far from Bianjing, and ordinary people have a three or four-day journey. If they use a fast horse, they can arrive in one day. After reading the letter, Chun'er immediately frowned and went to Chen Ji to consult Chen Ji.
Chen Ji has a transcendent status in the Shen family. He is not only Chen Ao's teacher and a counselor of the Shen family. Therefore, Chen Ao is not there and something wrong with his family is inevitable.
Chen Ji read the letter, his eyes fell off. He immediately put down the letter and said calmly: "I don't have such a student, and I don't know who Chen Ao is. I have nothing to do with him. Madam, please go back."
Chun'er was speechless. Seeing Chen Ji holding up a book and pretending to read it, he had no choice but to sigh and walk away.
Back at her bedroom, Chun'er opened her letter again, frowned and pondered for a moment, and she was frowning. At this time, Zhou Ruo was outside and shouted, "Is Sister Chun'er here?" As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Ruo came in wearing a long pine green dress and said with a smile: "I saw you frowned when I woke up this morning. Why, what is the difficulty to make you like this?"
Zhou Ruo and Chun'er used to be masters and servants, and had a great relationship. Now they are family again. Both sides know the truth and have no taboos. They took the letter and took a look, and said in surprise: "Who will you smash again? He is now addicted to training troops and is so arrogant!"
Chun'er said the matter and pointed to the letter: "My husband's reply only said: 'It's unbearable, so smash it into pieces.' These few words, he can do such a thing, but we are women's family after all. Did we really take people to smash their weekly magazine restaurant?"
Zhou Ruo was originally a person who refused to suffer losses. After hearing Chun'er's words, he frowned and said, "If you say this, what kind of weekly magazine is called a governor is too bullying. Although your husband is a bit arrogant, if you don't teach him a lesson, what else will you arrange in a few days."
Chun'er said: "Miss means we do it according to our husband's wishes?"
Zhou Ruo smiled and said, "I didn't say it. I've said it many times. Don't call me Miss again in the future. Have you discussed this with Mr. Chen?"
Chun'er talked about her visit to Chen Ji again, and Zhou Ruo smiled even more brilliantly: "If I had such a student, I would have to cut off the friendship between teachers and students from him. How could a good scholar develop such a violent temperament?" She thought for a while and said, "But although my husband likes to make trouble, what he said is not wrong."
Chun'er gradually calmed down. The past two years of experience have made her mature and thoughtful. She thought about it briefly and knew that although Chen Ao smashed the restaurant in the name of being insulted, she also had the intention of being drunk. Then Zhiwen Ji was clearly trying to fight against Suiya Weekly, which not only affected Suiya Weekly's business, but also on the other hand, Zhiwen Ji was particularly concerned about the advancement of the army. Maybe there was any unspeakable purpose in the future! Now that it was smashed, it was an object of a struggle for intention, but it was also a means of one and for all.
Chun'er Qiubo's eyes were slightly fixed and she said in a deep voice: "Since that's the case, I'll do it according to my husband's wishes, and I'll go there in person."
Zhou Ruo said, "Why would you let me go too? But you can't tell Zhenzhen about this matter first. Moer said that what they fear most is fighting and killing, and they will definitely object."
Chun'er nodded and said confidently: "If you want to go, you have to wear the imperial edict's dress, so as to avoid being confused when you are not able to tell the truth. According to the laws of the Song Dynasty, it is a sin to insult the lady of imperial edict. So look for this reason."
The two of them wore imperial edicts and called Liu Sheng to gather the strong servants in the mansion. They gathered more than a dozen people, but they felt that this was not enough. Zhou Ruo had a solution and asked Liu Sheng to go to the Duke Qi's mansion to add more than twenty people. Then he and Chun'er got on a carriage, and under the escorts of thirty or forty servants, he went straight to the library where the Chronicles were informed.
Zhou Ruo was a little worried along the way. Although her temperament was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, she had never encountered such a thing before, so she couldn't help but worry a little. However, Chuner was extremely calm at this time and said a lot of words to comfort Zhou Ruo along the way.
