One hundred and forty-third chapter emperor's mind
Prince Qi stood there with his eyes, nose and heart attentive. He didn't know if what he just said satisfied that person.*
"Well, it's pretty good that you can think of so many."
The person who said this sentence has thick eyebrows and big eyes. His eyebrows are as thick as two unsheathed swords. His hands and feet are unusually large. His exposed skin is dark.
But you must be the first to see such a person.
No matter how many people appear at the same time, you will always see him first.
He is Chu Xuanba, the current Great Chu Wu Emperor.
Prince Qi received the compliment from Emperor Wu, but he did not show the slightest joy. Instead, he said respectfully: "I'm afraid that my thoughts are wrong, but I hope your Majesty will teach you."
Emperor Wu only said lightly: "Go back to the star realm. You and Xi'er haven't decided the winner of this competition yet. You came back again. I'm afraid he has already conquered several tribes."
Prince Qi straightened his chest slightly and gritted his teeth and said, "My son, I am ready to go back, but I have one request."
"Oh, tell me."
"When I return this time, I will definitely go all out to compete with the emperor's younger brother. But if I win, Your Majesty will hand over the entire star realm to me to govern." Prince Qi said loudly.
Emperor Wu took a deep look at Prince Qi and shouted violently: "Okay, I will promise you that no matter who of you two wins the Star Realm, he will have full authority to rule it."
After Prince Qi slowly exited the imperial study, Emperor Wu's voice sounded: "Brother Chunyang, what do you think?"
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, you have another prince who can stand alone." Following the voice, an elegant man wearing a square scarf slowly walked out. It was Wang Chunyang who had appeared in the star realm.
"It's not even close."
"However, I also thought that what Prince Xi never expected was a temporary tie. It's just that he seems to be very sure of winning later, but even I am a little curious."
"I'm a little bit surprised too." Emperor Wu stood up slowly and said, "If the star realm can be pacified, there are only three directions."
Wang Chunyang took a step forward and continued: "The first way is that the king's way must occupy the name of righteousness, and then use the saint's way of benevolence and righteousness to educate the necessary time. Confucius's slaying of Taishi in the Spring and Autumn Period will last for decades, and then the people can be converted into His Majesty's.
sub-nation; the second one is the domineering way of His Highness Prince Xi, and what he is doing now is close to killing anyone who disobeys me; the third one is the way of the domineering king, which is a combination of the first two."
"None of them." Emperor Wu thought for a moment and said.
Wang Chunyang's eyes showed surprise, and Emperor Wu shook his head and said: "Maybe he can give me some surprises and find a fourth way. Forget it, let's wait for a few days and find out. Now let's just consider him and Xi'er to be even."
Emperor Wu narrowed his eyes and said: "The Holy Alliance should have spread the word to the world, how will the Daomen react?"
Wang Chunyang said: "According to the original agreement with the Taoist sect, the military power is in the hands of the royal family. The Taoist sect can only send disciples to assist, but they can serve as generals but not as commanders. However, the Xuntian Immortal Mansion is responsible for the jurisdiction of the monks in the universe. Any evil cultivators or monsters that endanger the country and bring disaster to the world.
They all took action
You are not allowed to interfere casually. This time, His Majesty asked the Holy Alliance to establish a Taoist temple in Yunjing in the name of merit reward. The Taoist sect will not sit idly by and ignore it. Otherwise, the prestige of the Taoist sect will be greatly affected. The Taoist sect’s elders have responded and will send eight disciples.
Bring gifts as a way of congratulations."
"Gift?"
"The Taoist sect has issued an order to kill evil spirits. These eight people have already walked down the mountain and left the Taoist temple. There are still three months left. It is necessary to get rid of some alien monks outside. Your Majesty, in order to contain the Taoist sect, do you really want to allow evil spirits to preach in the capital?" Wang Chunyang said solemnly.
.
The reason why Wang Chunyang asked this was because he did not agree with Emperor Wu's decision, although he also wanted to suppress Taoism very much.
This statement that the king and the Tao share the world is definitely not false. Just from what Wang Chunyang said just now about the agreement between the royal family and the Taoist sect, we can see that although the Taoist sect has no intention of getting involved in military power, it has the power to judge the monks. They say who is an evil demon and who is an evil demon.
Before Emperor Wu, the nine evil sects were either hidden at the polar border where humans and monsters meet, or they were hidden in the eight sects of the wild demon sect.
Come to the door.
Wang Chunyang inherited the teachings of Confucius and Saints, but today is the end of Confucianism and Legalism.
The Taoist sect is deeply rooted both in government and in the opposition. Whether it is national government, military government or civil society, those who practice Taoism are respected far beyond Confucianism.
Confucianism has been regarded as the representative of the eloquent school in the eyes of the world. There are scoffers who say that saliva alone cannot resist the demon army, let alone feed people.
Only a handful of Confucian and Taoist scholars enjoy a high reputation. For example, Wang Chunyang and Wu Shuangquan were enlightened in their early years and joined the army to help Emperor Wu to win among the princes. Then they assisted him in governing the government and sent his disciples to improve agriculture and industry.
Confucianism and Taoism have made new developments in his hands, and he put forward the so-called mind-based learning: there is no reason outside the mind, there is nothing outside the mind, and there is nothing outside the mind.
"Since I ascended the throne, the Taoist sect has retreated step by step, allowing me to promote cultivating families into the army and begin to replace the positions of those sect disciples, forming a diversionary force. I only firmly control the jurisdiction of the Xantian Immortal Mansion over the monks. But they are centipede insects.
Those aristocratic families are nothing but scattered sand. I can still use them if I am alive. If I am not here, they will definitely not be the opponents of the Taoist sect."
Wang Chunyang sighed deeply in his heart and became speechless.
Although the Taoist sect seems to be retreating, it still has disciples all over the army, the government and the public. Even if they are not in high positions, there are still a large number of disciples in the middle and lower classes who are experienced or have worshiped in the Taoist sect.
Only the Taoist sect can provide such a large number of monks to Dachu, Dachu and the cultivation family. Although there are geniuses emerging, it is impossible to erase the influence of the Taoist sect in terms of quantity and quality.
This forced everyone to compromise. However, although the Taoist sect helped Da Chu govern the world and defend the demon clan, it had no intention of completely eradicating the demon clan.
Because there are also powerful people among the demon clan, and if they really want to fight the demon clan to the death, the Taoist sect must charge forward and be seriously injured.
Therefore, it is best for the Taoist sect to maintain its status as it is now so that it can continuously obtain various resources for the monks of the sect to practice.
But this is different from the ambition of Emperor Wu. The emperors of the Great Chu royal family inherited the power of the dragon god. Although Emperor Wu had peerless power, he could not live forever. He only wanted to wipe out the monster clan in one fell swoop during his lifetime, unify the East and win over China, and then conquer the four continents across the sea.
in hand.
The stubbornness of the Taoist sect finally made Emperor Wu determined to lure the evil Taoist sect to stimulate the Taoist sect and force them to make further concessions and completely abandon his chariot.
If the Taoist sect still refuses, Emperor Wu will seriously agree to the Holy Alliance as long as they are willing to help him conquer the demon clan.
However, the demonic evil sect has always been inferior to the Taoist sect in terms of its foundation. At most, when it comes to conquests that can help the great Chu, it often falls short of conspiracies and intrigues, or resorts to simple, rough and cruel methods.
There is almost no help in political affairs, because the evil evil sect has been suppressed by the Taoist sect for many years and has almost never had the opportunity to get involved in government affairs. Even if it wants to educate the world, it is very difficult because the evil evil sect's own cultivation method is bloody and cruel, not to mention the practices pursued by several major sects.
Not necessarily the same.
On the other hand, although Taoist sects also have internal struggles and strife, once they enter the Taoist sect, the assimilation is quite serious. The only Zhengqi sect, Haoran Xianjian sect, etc. were originally Confucian and Taoist traditions, but due to the decline of Confucianism and Taoism, they were accepted by the Taoist sect. Now the Confucian, Legalist and Taoist traditions have been
It's indifferent.
The authentic Confucianism and Taoism, the Fa Tong Tianli sect, has been in decline. If not for Wang Chunyang's emergence in recent years, Confucianism and Taoism, a sect of Chuangxinxue, would have almost died out.
However, Emperor Wu could no longer care about so many of his limited lifespan Taoist sect. It was this idea that consumed him until he, the most powerful emperor of Chu after the First Emperor, died.
Emperor Wu had no choice but to lead the Holy Alliance and Taoist sects to fight against each other to create a check and balance, and then take advantage of the situation to make all forces target the demon clan.
The Battle of the Star Boundary is the best experimental field. Just as Kong Zhang and Prince Qi thought, what Emperor Wu wanted was a method that would never be easy to change, so that all forces would be bound by interests and have to be hijacked by the royal family.
It's like there are several wealthy tycoons in a casino at the same time. They all have the ability to spend a lot of money, but the one who can win in the end must be the casino because they are not the banker.
The royal family wants to be the bookmaker, but other forces cannot have the opportunity to leave because they need resources.
Great governance is needed to allocate these resources.
The Taoist sect has always taken advantage of this almost exclusive system, and Emperor Wu now wants to further break this situation.
The Holy Alliance alone may not be able to shake it, but if the Holy Alliance enters and the powerful sects cultivated by the major aristocratic families and the royal family have been holding back, they will no longer be able to sit still.
Otherwise, if these forces merge, they may really replace Dao Sect.
This Yunjing Dojo is the first step. If the Dojo is completed and the Royal Dharma Conference and the Holy Alliance shine, but the Taoist sect is indifferent, then the Dojo will have legitimacy and can officially preach, which is equivalent to whitewashing the evil sect from black to white.
The reason why Wang Chunyang disapproved of this was that in the future, evil people from all over the world would gather in one place to commit crimes and commit crimes, and they would try their best to find shelter in the dojo.
As for the Taoist sect, where is the prestige of the Xantian Immortal Mansion? It has lost its ability to intimidate monks all over the world.
The Taoist sect has no intention of establishing another dynasty. The unrest of the human race is not in their interests, but they are careless about the struggle for orthodoxy. Once they lose their previous methods against the alien sects, they may have to be returned one by one.
When Bada came to congratulate Wang Chunyang, he could almost guess how the Taoist sect would congratulate him.
Three months in advance, he sent his disciples to travel all over the world and walked to Yunjing, killing monks from different sects along the way. At the same time, he also met the challenge of the evil sect and congratulated himself on thousands of lives.
If the younger disciples of the various sects of the Holy Alliance had lost so miserably in this battle, when the trial arena was completed, the eight major disciples of the Taoist sect would all pour out the personal belongings of hundreds of disciples of the various sects of the Holy Alliance who came to challenge. What would that be?
What scene?
The Holy Alliance no longer has the shame to open any dojo. Even if it reluctantly patrols the Immortal Mansion, Emperor Wu will never care about it in the future, and the Holy Alliance will definitely be very disappointed.
Fortunately, the Holy Alliance was not stupid and even proposed to send eight disciples to wait for him in Yunjing.
So a good show is about to begin.
It was destined to be a fight from the moment the eight disciples of the Taoist sect came down the mountain.
The disciples fought with each other all the way to Yunjing and still had to fight.
But the real dispute is that the drama behind the scenes will affect the momentum of all parties at the Dharma Conference.
Although Emperor Wu led the way in setting up a dojo as a way to induce various parties to compete in the allocation of resources in the star realm, it was just as Prince Qi wanted to use it to form a method that would never be easy to change.
If successful, it will be formed with the royal family as the village and others as supplements. From now on, other sects, aristocratic families, and casual cultivators must go through this huge organization to explore the cave heaven or other worlds.
Otherwise, once it is discovered that it is illegal, it will naturally be taken over by force.
Once this system is established, the influence of the royal family will inevitably increase greatly, and Taoism will have to be further suppressed.
