Inside the headquarters of the Mingzun Holy Sect in Chang'an, Zhang Jiao, who received the summoning order from Li Mingda, ordered his two brothers: "You two have arranged your subordinates and follow me to see the lord tomorrow."
Zhang Bao: "No"
Zhang Liang: "Promise"
When the two of them went to make arrangements, they naturally had to tell them where they were going. Now that the identities of the three of them were different, and there were so many believers below, where they were going would naturally attract much attention.
In addition, the three of them did not conceal their whereabouts.
Before anyone arrived, the news had already spread.
When the three of them went out, they were naturally escorted by the followers and the guards sent by Li Mingda. They attracted much attention along the way.
"Where are the three leaders going?"
"The residence of Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang"
"Ah, isn't that the reincarnation of your Ming Zun?"
"Yes, that is the reincarnation of our Ming Zun. It's only the New Year. Naturally, we have to meet him and accept Ming Zun's teachings."
"Oh, that's it, this prayer for enlightenment doesn't work."
“Anyway, my wish for this year has come true.”
"What is your wish"
The passerby silently glanced at the passerby who asked him, and smiled mysteriously: "I won't tell you."
Passerby: "..."
When the three Zhang Jiao brothers arrived, Li Mingda naturally received them according to the rules.
The three brothers Zhang Jiao and some believers separated at the door of Li Mingda's mansion. The believers were not allowed to enter, and only the three of them entered.
Naturally, Zhang Nan and Yu Xiaoqian were guarding the door. The five of them were very polite when they met. Everyone knew who the master they were serving was.
"The three masters are well"
“Good for the housekeeper”
"General Zhang"
"Headmaster"
After a few polite words, they were introduced by Zhang Nan and Yu Xiaoqian.
Li Mingda was waiting in the study. After Zhang Jiao and the others entered, Zhang Nan stood guard at the door, with Qingfeng Mingyue by his side.
"Meet the Lord"
When the three of them saw Li Mingda, they naturally wanted to behave like monarchs and ministers.
Li Mingda waved his hand to signal the three of them to get up: "Forget about the cumbersome etiquette, let's have tea and some cakes and talk about business."
Zhang Jiao nodded: "I obey the Lord's command."
"How are the plans I asked you to prepare for the New Year?"
"I still gave the order, but there are too many places involved, and there are too few reliable and qualified believers, so I can only guarantee operations in the state capital."
State capital
It seems to be no different from what I expected: "Let's do this for now. Are there any difficulties in the development of the church?"
Zhang Jiao: "Your Highness, the development of the church is still in an awkward position. For the people, the foundation of Taoism and foreign Buddhism is insufficient for thousands of years. The government treats us as half-official and half-people. After all, the country of the Tang Dynasty is Taoism."
"Li Chunfeng hindered it?"
"That's not the case. Taoist Master Li is just a talker introduced by Taoism. The real ones are behind."
Li Mingda nodded to express his understanding: "That's right, then just leave this matter to me. As long as this year's plan is done well, the identity will naturally be officially recognized. I have come to see you today for something important."
The three brothers Zhang Jiao: "Please give me instructions, my lord"
"The development of the church must have ironclad dogma. The sins committed cannot be absolved by those Buddha-like words of awakening. Otherwise, what is the use of the court's laws?"
“This must be done well so that it does not become a place harboring filth and evil.”
"The Holy Cult must have its own strength. Recruit some soldiers who have returned home from the border or wealthy people in the world. They can be called protective warriors or protective knights. In terms of levels, they can be divided into gods, saints, heaven, earth, and humans. Five levels, clothing and armor are divided into five stages: bronze, silver, gold, platinum, diamond, and master. In the end, you three masters will be the masters, and your character must be screened to prevent them from smearing our holy religion."
"These warrior knights can be collectively called the Crusaders in the end. They only exist to protect the existence of the church. They can save the country in times of crisis. However, we will not mention the matter of forming an army for the time being. It is the goal of future development."
Zhang Jiao's three brothers: "I understand."
"For this matter, come up with your own plan and I'll take a look." Li Mingda continued to ask the three brothers Zhang Jiao: "How is the development of the church?"
Zhang Jiaochao took out a scroll from his sleeve: "The number of followers has exceeded 100,000, and there are 10,000 followers."
Ding
Such a familiar yet unfamiliar voice
Haven't seen it for a long time
That grandson's voice
"Congratulations to the host for breaking through 100,000 followers and having 10,000 disciples, achieving new achievements and opening an era of faith."
"Rewards host generals from the Three Kingdoms: Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Pan Feng, Fang Yue, Wu Anguo, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Liu Du, Liu Xian, Chen Shi, Chen Tai, Han Rong, Han Yin...etc. in total 66 people, a special set of internal skills, mental skills and martial arts are provided for the host church to learn as an encouragement."
"I hope the host will continue to work hard and ascend to the throne as soon as possible."
...
Li Mingda tried to call this grandson who had not come out for a long time: "Gouzi, you are still alive."
The system ignores
"Dog, please bark when you are alive."
still silent
"Gouzi, where have you been in the wild these past two years?"
"Gouzi~!"
“Great system”
"Uncle System"
"Your uncle, the system"
Li Mingda was speechless. What on earth did this guy do? He gave himself so many awesome generals all at once. Although Yan Liang and Wen Chou were chopped into pieces by his second brother, they were careless after all, weren't they? The current status is almost that of top bosses like Yuchi Jingde and Niu Jinda.
Li Mingda opened his backpack and looked at the large card-like generals inside. He couldn't help but scratch his head. Where were these people?
Li Mingda fell into thinking, and Zhang Jiao and the other three brothers did not dare to say a word.
a long time
It seems that we can only throw a few to Zhang Jiao and the others first, and throw the rest to the land of Liaodong. Well, no, there are already people in the land of Liaodong, so.
Li Mingda looked at the map around him, and finally settled in the Guanzhong area, and could only carry out his planned martial arts plan.
After coming back to his senses, he continued to talk about the church: "There are one hundred thousand members and ten thousand believers. You can select this person with excellent qualities and can be used as a missionary. Prepare to start spreading the teachings of Mingzun Church in a serious way." Every priest travels with a guard of holy warriors and accompanying doctors to treat illnesses, save people, arrest bandits, and promote doctrines.
"Killing three birds with one stone, I will also arrange for Jinyiwei to give each priest an honorary position of Jinyiwei for more than 100 households. If you are in trouble somewhere, you can go to the local Jinyiwei for help or send news back."
Zhang Jiao: "Zhang Jiao admires my lord's thoughtfulness, but such a configuration cannot be achieved in a short time. It should not be until next summer at the earliest."
What Zhang Jiao said is very true. It is true that ordinary people may not be able to do this in half a year. Zhang Jiao was very satisfied with his answer.
"Okay, half a year is quite fast. A group of people will come to you in a few days to help you lay the foundation for the Holy Army. I also have a set of internal skills, mental methods and martial arts here specially prepared for the church. Let those who join the Crusaders learn."
"Each stage corresponds to a higher level of mental skills and martial arts. When the time comes, you can be responsible for teaching and spreading."
Zhang Jiao and the others naturally knew what was going on and nodded: "No"
The three brothers Li Mingda and Zhang Jiao then discussed some of the church's development ideas and some areas that needed attention. After all, one person is short-witted, right?
The four of them chatted back and forth all day. In the evening, Li Mingda naturally rewarded the three Zhang Jiao brothers and gave them some Baijiu and Zuimeng for them to take.
The three of them left, and those who were monitoring Li Mingda outside were extremely anxious. What could possibly cause the three of them to stay in Li Mingda's mansion for a whole day.
Chanting sutras and kneeling down?
They conspirators don't believe it
But I can't get into Li Mingda's mansion.
Nothing else to say
Among the people in the Tang Dynasty, the defense level of Li Mingda's mansion was stricter than that of the imperial palace. They could obtain information from the palace, but in Li Mingda's mansion, even if they spent a lot of money, they might not be able to succeed.
It’s not that there are people who are greedy for money. The main reason is that Li Mingda’s system is too complete. Each type of servant has his own authority and can only move within his own county. The kitchen is not allowed to enter the interior of the mansion, and the people inside are also Divided into internal and external levels, each courtyard is guarded by a large number of guards.
If you enter a place you are not supposed to enter, you will be arrested on the spot. If you resist, you will be killed directly.
After losing so many people, naturally no benefits were obtained. Basically, they just knew that Li Mingda had organized a lot of good things, which were all in the inner courtyard.
Zhang Jiao and three others took the people back. Li Mingda looked at it and saw that it was already getting late. Naturally, he did not intend to go back to the palace. He asked Yu Xiaoqian to send someone to the palace to tell them and it would be done.
When Li Mingda returned to his attic, he looked at his white fox and winked at him.
"What are you worried about?"
"What are you doing?"
"Xiaobai, believe it or not, I will kill you."
Murong Xue puffed up her stomach: "Come on, hit me, one dead and two dead."
Li Mingda rolled his eyes at Murong Xue and complained: "You are full of shit, at best, you can beat the shit out of you."
Murong Xue was arrogant: "Huh, it's been a day, do you know?"
"Nonsense, of course it's been a day. I'm exhausted. Come over here and give your husband a shoulder rub."
Murong Xue watched Li Mingda walk to the back with fox steps and a fox smile, stretched out her hand to rub Li Mingda's shoulders, and then asked Li Mingda charmingly: "Dalang, what have you been doing today? I'm so bored." , it’s empty”
"The dog speaks human language like Pan Jinlian and Wu Dalang. Believe it or not, sir, I will hang you up and whip you."
"It's disgusting, how could anyone else"
"Qingfeng, go get a whip. I'm going to wake up this evil bitch."
Murong Xue sat opposite Li Mingda with a crooked face and angrily: "Tell me, why don't you let me get involved?"
"Why are you involved in religious matters? Besides, didn't you go home early today? What are you doing?"
Murong Xue continued to tilt her face: "It's not because of you that I made people run away like that."
Li Mingda: "Have things been arranged?"
Murong Xue patted her chest: "It's no problem for Murong Xue to go out. Ten thousand cows will be delivered in the beginning of spring. Then we just need to ask your father to order the local government to take good care of them."
Li Mingda shook his head: "Let the local government take care of it. Otherwise, it will be a stew. People have to be dispatched by themselves. Allocate some herdsmen. Although the cost is higher, it must be much more reliable. The dispatched caregivers must also be prepared." , after all, it is the first time to do such a large-scale thing, and in this era, it is somewhat beyond the capabilities."
Murong Xue slapped the table and lectured Li Mingda: "You all know why you have to spend so much effort to do this. Even in our era in the future, this job will be difficult to do, you know?"
"Someone has to do this. Besides, they are all lives, right? Although there is no guarantee that they will all survive in the end, at least it is better than dying directly, and saving them is not in vain. , the future is going to repay us.”
Murong Xue sighed: "It's up to you. Anyway, the plan has already started. There is no turning back. If you do this, you will be slandered by those people. Let's see what you do then."
"Soldiers come and cover up the water with earth. It's no big deal. As long as my father and mother don't personally block it, we are not afraid of the dirty water. The Jin Yiwei are not people who live in dry food. If they dare to come and pour a bowl, I will give their whole family a bucket. "
Hum╭(╯^╰)╮
Li Mingda's disdainful smile (￣_,￣)
Murong Xue looked at Li Mingda with a knowing smile: "Now that I know about the great Princess Jinyang, Immortal Mingda, and the future empress of the Tang Dynasty, Xiao Sizi, your father will definitely be proud of your achievements. "
"Your father will definitely say to your face when the time comes, Gouzi, when you were born, the earth of the Tang Dynasty whispered your name, Xiao Sizi."
"Gouzi, I am proud to watch you grow up day by day and become the embodiment of justice. You must remember that we have always ruled this country with wisdom and strength. I also believe that you will use your powerful power cautiously. But , the real victory is to inspire the fighting spirit in the hearts of your people. One day, my life will reach its end, and you will be crowned emperor."
Li Mingda stretched out his hand and grabbed Murong Xue's fair and tender face, squeezing it from side to side: "Gouzi, you're drifting away. The one you're petting is Er Fool. His father told him to hang up after saying this, okay?"
Murong Xue rolled her eyes at Li Mingda and retorted: "Nonsense, of course it's the part about the two idiots holding the killing sword, but don't you think the path you are taking now is very similar? If your father does not agree with you taking the position in the future, by then What do you do for our survival?"
Li Mingda loosened his grip on Murong Xue's face: "When the time comes, who knows, although I am not a compassionate person, but I can't do this thing about loving my father at the moment."
Murong Xue also sighed: "I am not the same. There are some people in the family who have been living a luxurious life in Chang'an for these years and are ready to make a move."
Li Mingda patted Murong Xue's head: "Although I can't do anything to my father, those young men in your family are still fine. Why don't you leave it to me? It's enough for each of us to have blood on our hands."
Murong Xue took Li Mingda's hand away from her and said softly: "Ha, who do you think I am, Murong Xue? How can I leave you alone with bloody hands? Let's do it together, even if we fail. Being able to leave a strong mark in history will make the Sa family’s life worthwhile.”
........
In a house next to Li Chengqian's Prince's Mansion, it used to be the home of an official. Later, it was disposed of due to some things. In order for Li Moyun to get closer to Li Chengqian, Changsun Chong used his identity to buy it for Li Moyun to live in.
Because it is an official's residence, some buildings require status levels. Although Li Moyun lives in it, it is still nominally Changsun Chong's property.
Changsun Chong was able to do this in one night, and moved here with Li Moyun the next afternoon.
Li Moyun had no objection to this, and Li Chengqian was also very satisfied with such a close distance.
Today, the three Zhang Jiao brothers went to visit Li Mingda. When the news came, Li Chengqian put aside some things he had done in the afternoon and ran over early.
"Congratulations to the military advisor on your new move. Bring some gifts."
Li Moyun looked at the gift list and couldn't help scratching his head: "My lord, these are for the royal family. I, Li Moyun, am a scholar and cannot go beyond these systems."
Li Chengqian comforted Li Moyun: "If you can't use it, just throw it away as a decoration. I, Li Chengqian, can't take back the things I gave you."
Li Moyun handed over to Li Chengqian: "Thank you for the reward, my lord. This time, my lord came regardless of his studies. Will it cause dissatisfaction with your majesty and the great scholars?"
"It's okay. The New Year is approaching and they are all busy. There are a lot of government affairs to deal with. You are here just to show your face and let me study on my own. This time I am here to celebrate the relocation of the military advisor. The second one is to ask about this Mingzun. What is the military advisor’s opinion on the Holy Religion?”
Mingzun Shengjiao
The religion of worshiping Li Mingda
The development speed is beyond his imagination. Li Mingda has done a lot of things over the years, all of which are important things that benefit the country and the people. If it were not for his daughter, Li Chengqian's position as prince would not be guaranteed. After all, the gap between their abilities is too big. .
Li Moyun knew that his destiny was to run counter to people like Li Mingda. The two would not become friends. Their goals were not the same and they were just doing different things.
Since he plans to assist Li Chengqian, he must go through the hurdle of Li Mingda. After thinking about it, Li Moyun slowly said: "The core of the teachings of Mingzun Holy Sect is to respect Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang. The so-called Princess Jinyang is It’s the ancestor of all the immortals who came to the Tang Dynasty to save the people in distress, which heralds the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and will be passed down from generation to generation, right?”
Li Chengqian nodded: "Yes, it is true. At first, my father thought it was just a cult that deceived people. He recruited their leader Zhang Qing into the palace to discuss Taoism with Taoist Li Chunfeng. In the end, Taoist Li Chunfeng was defeated."
Li Moyun was shocked: after Yuan Tiangang's death, the most profound Taoist in the Tang Dynasty was Li Chunfeng. He actually defeated Li Chunfeng. What kind of amazing person he was.
this era
It seems there are too many different places
Li Chengqian told Li Moyun: "Military advisor, only my father, the emperor, and my mother know about this matter. You can't tell it."
Li Moyun: "Lord, don't worry, this matter will not be known to a third party. Are you worried about what Mingzun Holy Sect will do? Or will it pose a threat to you in the future?"
Li Chengqian took a long time to nod: "I think this church is a bit weird. Take those Taoist temples and temples as an example. They all hope that believers will donate more money, but the Mingzun Holy Cult stipulates that believers cannot donate so much, as long as they are willing. , and I’m doing good deeds everywhere, but I always feel like I’m hiding something.”
A light flashed in Li Moyun's eyes: Li Chengqian was indeed smart enough. It seemed that his efforts were not in vain. For the world he envisioned, Li Chengqian apologized.
To be continued
