Chapter 2 Refining and refining marble(2/2)
I should be able to live a relatively peaceful life in ten years.
To bless the great Chu Kingdom with peace and tranquility is the last wish of Senior Ji, as well as the last wish of Lin Lushan and Emperor Tianyou.
On that stormy night, the three most important figures of the Great Chu Kingdom passed away. The old swordsman who protected the country, the important minister who supported the country, and the emperor who managed the country.
Unlike Ji's predecessors who left without leaving a trace, the funeral of Lin Lushan and Emperor Tianyou was very large. According to Emperor Tianyou's edict, his tomb was divided into three parts. The main mausoleum in the south belonged to him and the queen who had passed away long ago, and the main mausoleum in the northeast belonged to him and the queen who had passed away long ago.
The auxiliary mausoleum belongs to Prime Minister Lin Lushan, while the auxiliary mausoleum in the northwest is empty, seemingly to commemorate someone.
Some people speculated that this was reserved for the two princes who died under the collapsed altar that night, and it was indeed arranged this way. But only Wu Jie knew that Emperor Tianyou's original design was actually to turn that sub-tomb into
Leave it to Senior Ji.
These three people, one civil, one military, and one emperor, supported the Chu Kingdom through a period of calm on the surface, but in fact very difficult years on the inside. Emperor Tianyou must have been very touched when he designed his mausoleum.
But he probably didn't expect that the three of them would die one after another on the same night...
Because of the injuries caused by the failure of the ceremony, although Lin Lushan and Emperor Tianyou were rescued, they were seriously injured and died without leaving any last words. The new emperor who succeeded to the throne treated the deceased with extreme seriousness and respect.
The prime minister even held the disciple's ceremony when sending Lin Lushan's coffin into the mausoleum, and walked with Lin Xiao holding the coffin on the left and right, making him extremely sad and honorable.
But even so, there is still a lack of praise for Linlu Mountain among scholars.
The reason was naturally that the new literature promoted by Lin Lushan greatly hindered them, making them feel deeply humiliated and at the same time feel a heavy sense of crisis.
If literature is not in the hands of scholars, then they will lose their natural pride and an important basis for being superior. This may be a good thing for the Chu country and the world as a whole, but it is definitely a bad thing for the literati.
Therefore, even with the respect of His Majesty the Emperor, criticisms of Lin Lushan continued to spread among the scholars. Some of them were arrogant and rude, and their words were so unpleasant that Wu Jie couldn't help but get angry and wanted to beat him up.
However, he did not take action because someone moved faster than him.
When Lin Xiao heard the news, this young man with a somewhat extreme personality set out overnight and killed six well-known literati in one night.
"It is a sworn hatred to insult your parents with words that are disrespectful! Although Lin was born to seek immortality, he dare not stand side by side with such a hateful person in the world!" A few days later, one of his words spread throughout the nine states, "
I can't stop the mouths of people in the world, but I will never let go of those who insult my father! If you want to take advantage of me, please don't complain when you are decapitated by a sword light in the future!"
These words were extremely vicious, and his actions had proved that he was a man of his word. As a result, the almost uproar of criticism quickly subsided. Even though literati everywhere had complaints in their hearts, they did not dare to
Talk nonsense again.
"I am a half-demon. As long as I don't perish on the path of seeking the Tao, I should have no problem living for two or three thousand years." When Wu Jie asked, Lin Xiao replied, "In two or three thousand years, my father's theory should have become popular in the world.
No matter what the time is, it doesn’t matter.”
Seeing the layer of causal blood rising from his most qualified disciple, and thinking of his second disciple who died in that battle and couldn't even recover his body, Wu Jie couldn't help but sigh secretly...
A few days later, Taotu returned and brought the master's oral instructions.
"Let's do it this way. Although it is indeed a bit wasteful, we at Qingyang Guan have always been low-key. If we indulge once in a while, others won't have any objections."
After receiving this order, Wu Jie went all out and accelerated the progress of refining Yun Gang Stone.
