Chapter 872: Don’t ask the common people, ask ghosts and gods
Sure enough, Xie Yuncang was stunned when he heard the news, "What did you say?"
Xie Changqing was not surprised at all when his brother showed such an expression, "Ignoring the common people and ghosts and gods, meeting such a monarch is the misfortune of the people and the misfortune of the courtiers.
Emperor Yufeng has been in power for more than ten years, and the entire Daqi has fallen into the state of semi-paralysis it is now. If there is another new emperor..."
Xie Changqing did not continue, but shook his head slightly and sighed, his meaning was obvious.
If there is another emperor who is so superstitious about ghosts and gods, Daqi... the country will be ruined.
Although the entire Daqi, and even the entire world, now worships and trusts the spiritual religion, to any rational and sober politician, these are all false.
All things in the world, including the national economy and people's livelihood, can only come from human hands and brains.
However, no matter it is a country or a court team, its core is the person sitting on the Dragon Throne. If any government order is to be passed smoothly, then the person on the Dragon Throne must be awake and aware of this.
The government's decree is approved, otherwise it would be impossible to implement it no matter what.
Xie Yuncang didn't say anything, but his face looked extremely ugly.
Xie Changqing sighed and patted his shoulder gently, "I just want to remind you that this kind of thing is more important and important to you.
Moreover, this is just news after all. I don’t know whether this is the case or not. You have many people in your hands, and whether I can match them with capable people and lofty ideals. It’s better to verify this matter as soon as possible!”
"No need," Xie Yuncang suddenly sneered and said calmly, "What can I ask for confirmation?"
Xie Changqing stood up and was about to leave. Hearing this, he couldn't help but look at his brother in confusion, "What did you say?"
Xie Yuncang suddenly came back to his senses. Looking at his brother's curious eyes, he quickly shook his head and said: "I am still dealing with the civil unrest everywhere and the war in Datong. I really can't care about this.
If he is really so confused, what can I do as a courtier? Instead of trying to prove what he is doing at such a critical time, I would rather spend my time and think about what is really important.
To be disrespectful, at this moment, it is beneficial for us people that he is not taking care of things."
Xie Changqing looked at him twice, and finally nodded: "What you said makes sense. You are the one who is doing the thing. Naturally, you know best. I just follow you anyway."
But when Xie Changqing left, the expression on Xie Yuncang's face completely fell.
His mood, which had never been firm at first, immediately calmed down completely, and his eyes became a little dull.
In fact, what he said just now was really just to deal with Xie Changqing. There are some things that are not easy to talk to his brother now, but they must be done.
"Here comes someone!"
The long follower who had just delivered the letter had already returned. Hearing his voice inside, he immediately walked in and said, "Master, what do you want to give me?"
"Go! Let people keep an eye on Ling Xiaoguan. If they find the prince's figure..."
He paused, and Chang Sui immediately understood what he meant, "Come and report immediately?"
Unexpectedly, Xie Yuncang waved his hand and said, "No need, just record it carefully."
Chang Sui didn't understand why his master meant this, but he naturally had no intention of refuting and quickly retreated to make arrangements.
The sky outside gradually became dark, and Xie Changqing sat in the darkness.
No one knew what he was thinking at this time. There was no lamp in the room, and he seemed to be integrating with the darkness.
Until Chang Sui turned around and saw him sitting like this, he was shocked and said quickly: "What's going on with these people? Why are they so lazy now? It's all a small fault.
I usually indulge them too much."
Xie Yuncang returned to his hometown and said calmly: "Don't take the blame on yourself. I don't let them enter and exit my house at will."
Ever since he discovered that Mr. Yun, whom he trusted most and was both a teacher and a friend, was actually the prince's spy, Xie Yuncang lost a little trust in his study.
Except for a few people in the entire room, no one else was allowed to enter.
At this time, Chang Sui was not around, and the person responsible for cleaning did not dare to ask for instructions easily, so that he was left to sit alone in a dark room.
"That's good too."
As Xie Yuncang spoke, he stood up and walked to the door. He looked at the dark purple night sky outside and let out a long sigh.
Chang Sui didn't know why his master sighed, nor what the meaning behind the sigh was. He just stood behind silently.
At this time, another person also sighed quietly, sitting in such a dim environment.
Just sighing like this in one breath made the prince sitting opposite him tense up.
"National Master, what's wrong with you?"
In a certain room in Lingxu Temple, there was only a flickering lamp faintly placed on the window sill.
Even though the distance between the two people is not far, sitting here, the prince still can't see clearly the delicate expression on the face of the Imperial Master, which is probably very inconsistent with his age.
Like Emperor Yufeng, the prince believed in the person in front of him from the first moment he saw the true face of the Imperial Master, and he had unparalleled trust.
So at this moment, he looked at the person opposite with almost a kind of devout faith.
The Imperial Master did not speak immediately, and seemed to be calculating something with his eyes closed.
"Your Highness, I have already told you that you should not come."
These words fell heavily on the prince's heart, making his face look dispirited.
But soon his eyes lit up again, "Master, what you said is wrong. Although I am the prince, and although you serve my father now, I am also a believer, a devout believer in the Spiritual Religion.
You are the messenger sent by God to us, and you were supposed to help us get through the suffering, but your status in this world is special, so it is necessary for you, the Imperial Master, to come forward in person."
The Imperial Master looked at the young man in front of him and suddenly smiled, "Your Highness is more harmonious than when Your Majesty was young."
Although the words are not good words, the tone of speaking is clearly a compliment.
The prince was immediately overjoyed and said, "Master, you are an extraordinary person. I will soon be in charge of this world, and I need a capable person like you."
Since you have condescended to assist my father for so many years, there should be no reason why you should refuse Gu Cai."
The sky was getting darker and darker, and the Imperial Master did not answer the prince's words. His eyes fell on the lamp, and then looked further into the night sky through the lamp.
"Your Highness, for people like us who are singled out from the mortal world, there are certain things that have a cause and effect if we get involved in them, which may not necessarily be a good thing.
As for entering the palace in the first place, it can be regarded as a kind of cause and effect. Now that you can have a choice, people from outside the world should naturally jump out of the world of mortals."
This actually meant that she was unwilling to continue helping him.
After coming here so many times, he finally met this mysterious man. The prince thought that everything was settled, and today was the day when his dust settled.
Who would have thought that I would hear this answer now.
This was naturally dissatisfying to the prince, so he immediately frowned, not caring that it seemed a bit rude.
"But..." Just when the prince was about to get angry, the Imperial Master across from him suddenly spoke again, "The so-called cause and effect, all things in this world are the same, so... the same is true when His Highness appears here today.
A cause and effect."
"So..." The prince looked at him seriously, "What does the Imperial Master mean?"
