Chapter 39: The Emperor's and Prime Minister's Reaction
Luo Zhenren snorted coldly, "The most difficult thing about my Tao is to preach. The people are ignorant, and I am the wise and interpret the foolish. When it comes to preaching among these foolish people, since ancient times, my Taoism has not been the opponent of Buddhism, and I can only take the upper-level route. The foundation among the people is unstable. If my Taoism encounters the destruction of Buddha like the Three Martial Arts and One Sect, it would have been destroyed long ago. However, with this son, it is best to preach to the people!"
Zhang Xubai was shocked: "The people are ignorant, teach them to be good. Why do you have such a deception? Wouldn't it be even more ignorant?"
Luo Zhenren said angrily: "You weaken your heart, your belly, your belly, your abdomen, your abdomen, your ambition, and your bones. Do you not even know these teachings of this Supreme Master?"
Zhang Xubai said: "The sage removes the ears and eyes, cuts off evil and private, and embraces one with hollow heart. If the heart is empty, the alchemy will be refined. Therefore, the spiritual yang energy of heaven and earth can be used to transform the yang energy. Over time, the yang energy will naturally be eliminated and the yang energy will grow. Then the belly will be fully formed, the body will be condensed with the Tao, and the life will be prolonged with the technique. This is the method of transcending life and eliminating death..."
Luo Zhenren was furious: "You are a man of your life at most. Why learn the fallacies of the inner alchemy school? My Taoism will inevitably be destroyed in the hands of the inner alchemy school! Only people like Lin Lingsu are the talents I need to prosper... Get out of here..."
As he said that, he was furious and kicked Zhang Xubai with a stick. Zhang Xubai was in a mess and did not dare to fight back. He hid in circles and hid, and was beaten to the point of bruising and swollen face...
Seeing that his master was really angry, Zhang Xubai didn't dare to be stunned for too long and shouted: "Master, please get angry slowly. Be careful that the fire hurts your body. I'll take a step first and find a place to drink..."
"Get out, don't let me see you again. I will hit you once!" Luo Zhenren sighed in disappointment: "I have a hard time, why are the two disciples I taught are so useless!"
............
"What? The gods of heaven gathered together..." Zhao Ji opened his mouth in shock, and with a click, he dropped a porcelain cup from an official kiln to the ground, and he didn't react when he broke it. He forgot about the strictly cultivated royal etiquette at all.
"Yes, the official family!" an old eunuch said carefully, hunched over.
Zhao Ji reacted from the excitement for a long time and walked around the house quickly. Listening to the report of his subordinate Imperial City Department: "It is said that the immortal master held two Dharma meetings in Luoyang. Once in Guiren Garden, the immortals' caves and blessed lands appeared. There were mountains flying in the sky, and plants that shone at night, like dandelions... The second time the number of preachers was more, but there were gods all over the sky, one by one, the songs fell on the blue sky, and the rain of the sky was treasured!"
Although it was the second time that Zhao Ji heard the report from the Imperial City Department, he was still so excited that he could not do it himself: "So, I have invited a real god this time! OK, OK... This matter is not false, right?"
The old eunuch lowered his eyebrows and said with a pleasing look: "Ten thousand people in Luoyang City saw it with their own eyes! And Wang Fu was also present at that time."
Wang Fu was one of the closest people around Zhao Ji. When he heard that he was also present, the last doubt in his heart disappeared completely, and he was so excited that he couldn't help himself: "I, I want to go to Luoyang City in person to invite the immortal master to Tokyo City, preach to me, and give me a talisman!"
His face turned red. The Song Dynasty was the most popular dynasty. Even the emperor would send people to buy snacks outside the palace. He called himself a simple name on weekdays. He often called himself "I" and "I". Only when he was formal ceremonies would he call himself "I". When he was excited, he called me.
"Hiss..." The old eunuch moaned like a toothache. Although he knew that the official family was not very reliable, he did not expect that the official family was so impatient. He couldn't help but smile and said, "I'm afraid this is not suitable, right?"
"What's wrong with it? In the past, Huangdi asked Guangchengzi in Kongtong Mountain. King Wen also personally carried Shang's father Jiang Ziya in the Wei River. Since I have predecessors, I can do it!" Zhao Ji said loudly, wishing he could put wings on his back and fly directly to Luoyang City.
The old eunuch smiled bitterly. It seemed that he could not persuade the official family. I am afraid that only Xianggong Cai could persuade the official family to stay in this kind of thing.
At this time, Cai Jing's mansion was having a big banquet. Cai Jing was hospitality and liked to be lively. If there were no guests at home one day, he would be listless and unspiritual. In the Three Kingdoms era, Kong Rong's taste of "the guests on the seat are always full, and the wine in the bottle is not empty."
The same is true today. The grand banquet was held in the grandfather's mansion, with dozens of tables. The guests were all ministers in the court, and they were all unrestrained and sat upright like they saw on weekdays.
All the red candles burned, as thick as buckets, were placed dozens of candles, and there were hot ridges underground, which emitted enough heat to drive away all the cold air in winter.
The young and beautiful maid was dressed lightly and walked by with wine, and was pulled into her arms from time to time. All the doors and windows of the entire banquet hall were covered with black cloth, and she didn't know whether it was day or night outside.
This was very common among the scholars and officials of the Song Dynasty, called the long night of joy. In this artificial night, this banquet could even last for several days and nights. If someone was impatient, he could find a woman or a few women, pull it to a corner where no one paid attention to, or block it with a screen, and he could be confused and happy.
This is also a very common thing, just like a famous painting "Han Xizai Night Banquet Picture".
Cai Jing looked at all this with a smile, and smiled at Lin Rong, the prefect of Kaifeng beside him, saying, "Yan Zhen, I am old, I am not energetic and can no longer enjoy it. You are still young, so you don't have to accompany me, the old man, go happily by yourself!"
Lin Rong, who is dark and thin, with a typical Fujian appearance, smiled and said, "My husband is healthy and how can he grow old? Mr. Zhao is not very honest these days, and he doesn't know what he is doing behind his back!"
"Don't talk about business during the banquet!" Cai Jing smiled and said, "That Mr. Cai is in a hurry now, but he doesn't have time to cause trouble for you. Yan Zhen is worried..."
Lin Rong's face was a little striking. There was a saying in later generations that he was bad in his previous life and was magistrate in this life; he did evil in his previous life and was shady in this life; he was full of evil and was shady in the provincial capital. Now Lin Rong, the prefect of Kaifeng, is even more difficult to do than Fukuo's provincial capital, and he is simply working at the foot of the emperor.
There are many noble and powerful people in this Tokyo city. Too many people can't afford to offend Lin Rong. In fact, few Kaifeng prefectures have been able to be two years old. A few days ago, Lin Rong made a mistake under his command, and Zhao Tingzhi stared at it. Life was difficult. Naturally, he was not in the mood to have fun. Now, when he heard Cai Jing say this, he said "Oh" and did not ask.
This book will be released on Friday. All old readers of Qidian should know the rules of forcing them to be put on the shelves... I won't say much. Anyway, I think I just keep my head and honestly writing books. Book friends think it's good and will definitely not treat me badly, right?
