There are many bamboo slips, they are old and the handwriting is a bit blurry. In addition, Chu Qing does not know many traditional Chinese texts, so it is very difficult to read them. The main reason is that the way the ancients expressed things in words is very verbose, and there is no punctuation mark, so they can only rely on half-reading and half-understanding.
Fortunately, Sun Ping was waiting nearby. If Chu Qing didn't recognize him, he asked the old eunuch, and Sun Ping answered fluently.
Sun Ping was very patient and explained very clearly. He also bent over and laughed with me, and his attitude was very humble.
Chu Qing smiled gratefully: "With such a high level of education, what kind of eunuch do you think you are?"
Sun Ping: “…”
While asking and looking, Chu Qing finally understood why the Supreme Emperor said such words as De Sandao and Ding Zhongzhou.
Three Hidden Doors can be described in just one sentence. It is so full of talents!
First of all, there is the difference between a Celestial Master and a Taoist priest. A Celestial Master must be a Taoist priest, but a Taoist priest may not be a Celestial Master. Just like football players, those who eat sea cucumbers may not be bad at playing football, but those who are not good at football must have the nerve to eat sea cucumbers every day.
.
When Chang Taizu founded the country, there were Taoists from the Three Hidden Sects to help him. It can be said that in the early 100s of the Chang Dynasty, Zuo was accompanied by the Three Hidden Sects. Especially in the palace, there were two masters of heaven and earth. Their external identities were
Officials of Qin Tian Jian are treated the same as imperial masters in the palace.
Let’s talk about Tianshi and Qintianjian first. Generally speaking, they are in charge of astronomy, calendar, fortune telling, timing and other matters. Generally speaking, they are weather forecasts. They look at the stars and the moon in the middle of the night, and then calculate what time it will be in the next few days.
When it rains or snows or hails, the most important thing is to connect "heaven" and "people". The ancients believed that changes in celestial phenomena and changes in personnel correspond to each other, and the main job of the heavenly master is to do this.
It suddenly hailed today. The Heavenly Master should start to "explain" why it hailed, whether the emperor did not do any good things, etc.
In fact, otherwise, the Taoist of Sandao Yinmen, that is, the heavenly master walking in the palace, his "explanation" is recorded in detail on these bamboo slips. The general meaning is that Sandao Yinmen thinks this is a normal
When the weather changes and the weather gets cold to a certain extent, the gas contained in the water will tend to a certain state, and then it will rain. When the weather is extremely cold, there will be reports.
In short, the Celestial Masters of the past dynasties have a very special...science.
To the outside world, these heavenly masters are doing their job, communicating with gods and ghosts, talking about gods and gods, and so on.
But in the palace, they would teach the emperor or princes very "scientific" knowledge. In general, don't be superstitious, everything can be explained.
This shocked Chu Qing. The old Taoist did not practice Taoism, but he practiced science?
Not only science, the disciples of the Three Dao Yin Sect also teach military strategies, farming, martial arts, piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, lyrics, songs, poems, anything that can be thought of, the disciples of the Three Dao Yin Sect can teach it.
But one thing is that the heavenly masters of the past dynasties are not all masters in all fields.
In the past, members of the royal family were like opening a blind box. For example, a heavenly master named Lao Wang came today. The prince was very excited and shouted, "Heavenly Master. He only wants to learn martial arts. Sorry, it depends on luck. It's very good."
Maybe this heavenly master doesn't know martial arts, but he can write poems and art of war. Maybe he can't even defeat a eunuch.
Moreover, each generation of heavenly masters is proficient in two major fields, one is literary, and the other is martial arts. The literary one may be one of poetry, poetry, and music, or it may be one of chess, calligraphy, and painting, while the martial one may be art of war.
, or it's a strategy, or even a mechanism technique, or as I said, it's like opening a blind box.
However, the heavenly masters still master the "basic skills", which is science. They have unique insights into weather changes and some things that people don't understand, which are in line with reality and science.
In short, the Celestial Master is very awesome. If the Celestial Master is awesome, then the Earth Master is awesome.
Heavenly Master is very scientific, Earth Master is very fantasy.
The latter Earth Master rarely stays in the palace, and mainly goes out for walks. As for where he goes for walks, the royal family members have no control. In short, he will reply to letters every now and then. In the letter, he mainly writes about "land", and there may be mineral veins somewhere.
Send someone to dig it out.
According to the records on the bamboo slips, the earth masters of Sandao Yinmen need to use compasses and other things to survey mineral veins, and they also need to look at the landforms based on the shape of the mountain, soil distribution, plant characteristics, etc. In short, it is very powerful.
In addition to mineral veins, there are two earth masters who can even predict where natural disasters will occur in advance. As for things like Feng Shui, these earth masters are child's play.
It is recorded in the bamboo slips that the earth masters of Sandao Yinmen predicted natural disasters no less than ten times.
Among the royal family members of the Chang Dynasty, those who were members of the Three Hidden Sects were even more powerful than those outside the world.
However, the Three Hidden Sects are extremely low-key. The outside world only knows that they are the state religion, but they do not know how much the Heaven and Earth divisions have contributed to the royal family. The Three Hidden Sects have only one condition, which is to select one person every ten to fifteen years.
A member of the royal family of suitable age is sent to Sandao Yinmen to apprentice and learn skills. When they go to the mountain gate, they don't open blind boxes, but teach them with all their money. The mountain gate of Sandao Yinmen, also known as Sandao Peak, is regarded as "
"Basic Class", after graduating from the basic class, he will be led by one of the four teaching elders, Feng, Yun, Lei and Yu, to travel around the world.
So we have to ask, why does the Three Hidden Sect insist on accepting a royal disciple as an apprentice?
The Three Hidden Sects are very real. They don’t hide anything at all. They are frank. They are afraid that a tyrant will appear in the royal family. When your surname is Chang, a tyrant will appear. Then this royal disciple of our Three Hidden Sects will be born.
Overthrow you and let the country change its master.
If this is just the case, forget it. If you change it, at least they all have the surname Chang. But the problem is that the three hidden gates are too real. People say that you should overthrow the tyrant, but their disciples do not sit on the throne, but choose the virtuous.
The general meaning of "Zheju" is that the throne does not necessarily have a surname of Chang, but it can be overthrown by someone with a surname of Chang.
Normally, everyone would be anxious, but the people of the Lao Chang family were not anxious, because the three hidden doors were so powerful. The great thing was not that there were so many people, or that so and so was so powerful in martial arts, but that the three hidden doors were so powerful.
Daoyin Sect has mastered too many "skills", always revealing the tip of the iceberg, which has benefited the royal family or the court a lot.
It is worth mentioning that the medical skills of the Celestial Master are very powerful, much better than those of imperial doctors. They do not give injections or make elixirs, they just exercise and add some herbal medicines, and their health is doubled. As long as members of the royal family do not do anything, they can generally survive.
By the age of forty or fifty.
It wasn't until after Lao Si's grandfather ascended the throne that something went wrong. The Celestial Master of the Three Hidden Sects said that the Chang Dynasty was going to be over. It would only be a few years later. Lao Si's grandfather was a little impatient. If it was going to end, you guys thought.
Try it, but the result is that there is no solution to the three hidden doors. There is no solution. Let’s just make do with it. We will withdraw first and contact you later with Drift Bottle.
The grandfather of the fourth child is very confused. You all have withdrawn from this thought. I, the head of the Lao Chang family, will send the child to the Three Hidden Gates, waiting for you to brainwash and overthrow my Lao Chang family?
In fact, the quarrel was not tense at first. Although the Second Division of Heaven and Earth of Sandao Hidden Sect withdrew, they did not say anything to death. They went back to the mountain gate to think of a solution. If they could solve it, it would have to be Yu Taoist. The problem was Yu Taoist Shenlong.
Just as the saying goes, just let it go.
In such a big country, if you let it go, you are the emperor after all, how can you lose your temper? When I heard this, I became anxious. The prince refused to say goodbye and even withdrew the state religion from the Three Hidden Sects. Then it was really
.The Eight Dragons seized the throne, the Supreme Emperor ascended the throne, and then the family version of the Eight Dragons seized the throne. After these two twists and turns, the Dachang Dynasty went downhill at the risk of death, which also just verified the existence of the Three Hidden Gates at that time.
"prophecy".
It is worth mentioning that the Supreme Emperor simply abdicated because he was afraid that the centuries-old prosperous dynasty of Zuo Zuo would be destroyed in his own hands. Let the fourth son do whatever he wants. If you have the ability, just linger on. If you don't have the ability, the country will be destroyed. That's you too.
