Chapter 21 Ascension to the Throne
Chapter 21 Ascend the Ground
The fifth day of the fifth month, the auspicious day of the imperial road.
This day was the day when Zhao Ji, the new emperor of the Song Dynasty, ascended the throne.
With the support of Empress Dowager Xiang and Lu Yun gave advice, King Duan indeed defeated his four brothers and became the next emperor of the Song Dynasty and the ruler of the entire Central Plains.
When the emperor ascended the throne, the etiquette was naturally complicated and grand. First, a group of ceremonial ministers praised the life achievements of Emperor Daxing, and finally announced the posthumous title agreed by the ministers. Because Emperor Zhezong devoted his life to pacifying the frontiers, the posthumous title was: Emperor Qinwen, Ruiwu, Zhaoxiao.
There was also an imperial edict from the Empress Dowager, who ordered Duan Zhao Ji to ascend the throne and become the emperor and enthrone the queen.
There were also civil and military ministers in the court who held the emperor to worship the sky, and it was a long sacrifice, which was difficult to understand. After worshiping the sky, they had to worship ancestors and emperors of all dynasties, which was lengthy and complicated.
Lu Yun stood among the ministers and stood calmly. Beside him were three eunuchs and ministers, one was Yang Jian, one was Tong Guan, and the other was Liang Shicheng.
The three eunuchs waited for this day for many years, and finally got through, whispering and laughing non-stop, celebrating each other.
Finally, when King Duan ascended the throne, their lives will be better in the future...
Zhong Shidao sneered on the side, Lu Yun was keen on the ears, and the manager muttered: "Four eunuchs..."
Four eunuchs...
Instead of three...
It seems that this manager misunderstood the good guy.
Lu Yun stayed away from the three traitors without moving traces. When he arrived in front of Cai Jing, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, he heard Prime Minister Zhang Dun feel depressed and said to Cai Jing: "The King Duan is frivolous and cannot rule the world."
While Cai Jing said yes, he kept it in mind and prepared to wait for the government to stabilize, so he reported to Zhao Ji.
Lu Yun sighed secretly, this powerful prime minister is going to be in trouble.
He misbelieves people.
Cai Jing was promoted by Wang Anshi, and was naturally recognized as a member of the new party in the court. The current leader of the new party, Zhang Dun, was able to complain in front of Cai Jing because he believed in Cai Jing. Cai Jing was his right-hand man in the reform, so he should not be underestimated!
Little did he know that Cai Jing prefers to be the big guy than Zhang Dun’s younger brother. There is always a prime minister pressing him over his head. When will he make a breakthrough?
This time, the boss above made a political mistake and stood in the wrong team when choosing the crown prince. He also said, "The king is frivolous and cannot rule the world." Can he say such words?
Treasure Jing defeated the boss and became the boss himself. Cai Jing was calm on the surface, but was already full of joy in his heart.
"Treacherous minister!" Lu Yun sighed in his heart that Zhang Dun's fate. This powerful iron-fisted prime minister would probably come to an end soon.
Not only the end of power, but also the end of life...
This prime minister is now sixty-five years old.
But can he still be able to continue offending the current emperor?
In history, he was demoted again and again by Huizong and died soon afterwards.
After Zhang Dun's death, Wang Anshi's reform was completely declared to be a failure...
Lu Yun left Cai Jing calmly, and Yang Jian came over again, pointed to a Taoist on the altar in the distance, and whispered: "That Taoist is the current national teacher Liu Hunkang, and you are going to take his seat. Liu Hunkang is also a Taoist priest in Maoshan, and he is in the same lineage as Wang Laozhi."
When Lu Yun heard this, he burst into laughter. He was mocking Cai Jing for robbing Zhang Dun's seat, where he had already robbed Liu Hunkang's seat...
Is it a hundred steps to laugh?
However, he accepted the position of national commander to change the Song Dynasty, rather than fighting for power and profit...
Lu Yun reminded himself in his heart and looked at the stage.
Liu Hunkang was wearing a gossip Taoist robe and holding an ancient pine-patterned sword. The boys and girls on both sides held various sacrificial supplies, praying for blessings on the stage, muttering words.
This Taoist priest from the Maoshan Sect is obviously very good. Lu Yun even had a premonition that this Taoist is much stronger than Wang Laozhi and is also a great master of magical powers.
If Lu Yun does not use his mind, it will be difficult to beat Liu Hunkang...
This is also reasonable. The national teacher of the Song Kingdom under the wise emperor Zhezong must have real information and it is impossible to be far from it...
The National Master of the Song Dynasty gathers the fortune of a country and practices for a thousand miles a day. Even if he is not strong, he can still cultivate great supernatural powers, such as Lin Lingsu, a fake Taoist priest in the Huizong era in history!
Lin Lingsu is also a strange man. Like the treacherous minister Gao Qiu, he was once Su Dongpo's book boy. He is well-versed in Confucian and Taoist classics, and can speak and be good at eloquently. Even Su Dongpo dared not argue with him.
When he was thirty years old, he had been traveling with a surname named Zhao Taoist for several years. One day, Taoist Zhao suddenly died. Lin Lingsu dug out three volumes of Taoist books from his body, which were the Five Thunder Jade Books of the Shenxiao School, called "Shenxiao Temple of Heaven Jade Books". The fine characters on the book are like pearls, and there are also seal characters for heavenly scriptures, which are the magic tricks of the transformation of gods and immortals, and the great method of golden liquid and elixir.
From then on, Lin Lingsu relied on his own talented eloquence and the half-baked Shenxiao technique to embark on the path of traitors that harmed the country and the people.
This Taoist is the highest level of fooling among the Xuanmen. He only relied on his verbal skills. Huizong, who fooled him, believed that he was the reincarnation of Emperor Qinghua, and was interested in changing his name to Emperor Daojun. He also called Cai Jing the immortal of Zuo Yuan, Wang Fu the Wenhua official, Sheng Zhang, and Wang Ge the Baohua official in Yuanyuan. Zheng Juzhong, Tong Guan and the eunuch party were all gods. The imperial concubine Liu was favored by Huizong, so he said that this was the Concubine An of Jiuhua Yuzhen, who was the fairy from heaven descending to earth.
Lin Lingsu's casual remarks made Emperor Huizong, Cai Jing, Tong Guan and others very happy. From then on, Lin Lingsu rose to prominence, pretended to be a god and made a lot of money, and did all the things that "deception the world and confused the public". Nearly 20,000 Taoist disciples who vassed him were all beautiful, all of whom were well-dressed, established Taoism, and appointed ten Taoist officials. At his instigation, Emperor Huizong formally issued an edict to abolish Buddhism. He changed the Buddha's master to Jinjue Immortal, Bodhisattvas to immortals, great scholars, monks to be virtuous, and Buddhist temples to palaces, so that Buddhas could wear the clothes of Heaven.
Of course, from this perspective, the Taoist sect was able to prosper and make great achievements in the Shaolin, Zen and other Buddhist sects.
A unique and powerful cause that the dignified Taoist sect could not be completed for thousands of years was easily completed in his hands...
During the Northern Song Dynasty, there was no sound in Shaolin Temple, and it was all Lin Lingsu alone...
Later, during his time in Beijing, Lin Lingsu was successively awarded the title of "Golden Gate Feather Guest", "Tongzhenda Lingyuan Miao", "Taizhong Dafu", "Shi Chen in the Temple of Ningshen", "Ruizhu Hall of Shen Chen", "Chonghe Hall of Shenxiao Grand Master", etc. He went on a trip to the prime minister and the prince to compete for the road, and was known as the "Taoist Two Mansions", and had a high position and a powerful position.
Many evil villains came to bribe Lin Lingsu to seek official positions. As a result, Huizong was surrounded by these corrupt officials and slandered officials, who were greedy for pleasure all day long and ignored the government affairs, which led to the decline of the Northern Song Dynasty and eventually exhausted its last bit of luck.
Among them are Zhang Tianshi, the authentic ancestor of the Shenxiao Sect, and other real people in Youdao wanted to expel the demonic path and bring it back to life. However, Huizong Ning believed in Lin Lingsu, the demonic path that became a monk halfway, nor did Zhang Tianshi. As a result, Zhang Tianshi ascended, and the authentic ancestor of the Shenxiao Sect and Lin Lingsu fought with each other, which was comparable.
Lin Lingsu, a fake Taoist priest, became a real national master. After practicing, even if an authentic Taoist master took action, he would not be able to do anything...
This is a historical event. Of course, Lin Lingsu has not made his debut now.
And Lu Yun is already going to take over as the national magistrate.
Once he takes over the position of national teacher, Lu Yun's cultivation will surely progress thousands of miles a day.
Now, it is the biggest hurdle that Lu Yun has to go through on his journey to seek the Tao.
After spending it, the horse is flat. If you can’t pass it, your majesty will be gone.
There, the court's discussions had reached the official period of promotion, and someone came to report: "The Liao Kingdom, Xixia, and Tubo came to ask for a visit!"
The messenger of the Three Kingdoms.
The visitor is not good.
