Li Mingda's leisure time did not last long and it was time to negotiate with the Taoists. It was time for Sun Simiao to contact the Taoists.
The leaders from all the mountains of the other side have come. This is related to the future development direction of their own sect. Although they are the state religion of the Tang Dynasty and their status is not low, they have to believe Li Mingda's words. The more important point is that Ming Ming The followers of the Zunsheng Sect have expanded to all parts of the Tang Dynasty. If they don't get in touch early, it's hard to say when they will be annexed.
Taoist visitor
Lao Li was very excited and asked Li Chunfeng to be responsible for the reception. Li Chunfeng was of high seniority and had a high official position, so it was naturally much more convenient to receive them.
The representatives sent by Li Mingda were the three brothers Zhang Jiao, Jia Xu, Li Ru and some scattered security personnel. In order to ensure that there would be no trouble, Li Mingda captured 200 thousand cattle guards from Lao Li and from the sect. 300 holy warriors.
Li Mingda's side is an armed guard, wearing armor and swords. The Qianniu Guard's armor is provided by Li Mingda. Naturally, the similarity is very high. The difference is that the logo on the chest is different. Qianniu Guard's chest is a bullfight. Ming The guardian warriors of Zun Sheng Cult are decorated with stars, sun and moon, and are decorated with gold, silver and copper to indicate their status.
The chiefs of the major mountains gnashed their teeth when they saw the protective warriors of the Mingzun Holy Sect. They were some kind of protective warriors here and there, just like the elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
The status of the Ming Zun Holy Sect is indeed different. Could it be that the Li family felt that Taoism was no longer good and wanted to establish a sect of their own? Otherwise, why would they have created this sect? The gods not only have clear myths and stories, but also complete, various All the stories and allusions can be matched with each other, making it seem like you are really a branch of others.
This is why they responded so quickly. They paid attention to it as early as when Mingzun Holy Cult came out. Especially after Li Chunfeng and Zhang Jiao debated Taoism, they found out from their in-depth understanding of Zhang Jiao's Taoism that This is no joke.
Over the years, Mingzun Shengjiao has been cooperating closely with the imperial court. Although it did not intervene in Taoist ritual activities for the Tang Dynasty to worship heaven and earth, due to the gradual increase in civil prestige, individual families have replaced them.
All that is missing is an official announcement.
Crisis of faith
It is much more serious than the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism. If the Buddhists know the purpose of their coming, they will definitely follow them, and the conditions they will offer are guaranteed to be lower.
It's not like they haven't thought about uniting with the Buddhists to resist together, but after thinking about it, they decided to forget it. Sometimes the two groups can't stand each other, and it's good to be together without fighting, let alone other things.
The meeting is of course a negotiation.
If it weren't for Jia Xu and Li Ru, Li Mingda might have come to negotiate in person (fooling). Now that there are two of them, he only needs to listen to the results.
Li Mingda set the location of the negotiation at Mingda Academy. At this time, some of the children who failed the exam had been sent to Tuyuhun, and the other part was left to Wen Chou to pack up and follow Chai Lingwu to Jiangnan.
It is said that Jiangnan Shipyard Li Mingdas thought about it and finally chose Nanjing because the current tonnage is not that exaggerated, plus the waterway in this section is pretty good, and the geographical location is just right between the north and the south.
Anyway, the main things of the shipyard in the early stage are transported from the interior of the mainland. After the entire Northeast region is conquered, the Changxing Island area will be considered.
In other words, in the early stage, Li Mingda's shipbuilding here was enough.
Taoists don't talk much, they are easy to recruit, and eating and drinking are simple.
Negotiations started smoothly
Players from both sides enter
Zhang Jiao: "Welcome, fellow Taoists, to come."
Headmaster Wuyouzi: "Thank you fellow Taoist for the hospitality."
Zhang Jiao: "We will be a family from now on."
Wuyouzi: "Yes, we will be a family from now on, but look at how many of us there are."
Jia Xu: “After the new policy is implemented, there won’t be many people left.”
Li Ru: "And you still have to pass the exam."
Wuyouzi: Isn’t it a bit excessive to do this at the beginning?
After all, he has been practicing Taoism for many years, and his character is very good: "Everyone, the new policy has not started yet."
Jia Xu and Li Ru looked at each other, took out Li Mingda's method of dealing with religion that Lao Li had stamped a long time ago and handed it over: "This is what the imperial court has prepared. If the masters are willing, they will give it to you." Take care of”
Wuyouzi held it in his hands and quickly flipped through it, his brain began to break into a cold sweat. This was even more severe than what Sun Simiao said in his letter~!
With a calm look on his face, there was a hint of panic, and the other mountain leaders who were already curious stood up and gathered around him.
Everyone was shocked after seeing it Σ(°△°
It turns out that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and Princess Jinyang had already made preparations, waiting for their Buddhist and Taoist families to support Balabala for another two years to free up their hands to celebrate the New Year.
Judging from Li Mingda's statistics on the number of people, money, Taoist temples, and various illegal and non-illegal activities, it is much more detailed than the internal statistics of their own sect. The main people involved in the deception and abduction, some and the It clicked, and they didn’t know.
After all, most Taoists practice in the mountains, and their connections with the city are not that close. In addition, communication is not convenient now. It is normal for them not to see each other or exchange letters for three to five years.
If you don’t look at it, you won’t know, but you will be shocked when you look at it. Why some people in your family haven’t seen each other for three to five years? Their relationships have gone astray, or they have fallen ill. In short, there are various circumstances.
Li Chunfeng was also in a cold sweat. He didn't know about these things at all. He didn't even think about such a large-scale operation. Could it be that Tianji has stopped investigating? If you think about it carefully, it's right. Most of the people who got involved with Li Mingda There is nothing to investigate, they are all covered by a batch of fog.
Wuyouzi: "Everyone, can you give us some time to discuss this?"
Zhang Jiao, Jia Xu, and Li Ru nodded: "Please."
Wuyouzi and a group of people left the hall and started a heated discussion in the lounge at the side door.
Li Chunfeng followed him without avoiding suspicion. When Li Chunfeng arrived, a group of people gathered around him.
Li Chunfeng was the first to speak: "Brothers and sisters, I feel ashamed of my trust in you. I have served in the Qintian Prison for so long and I don't even know the news."
Wuyouzi comforted Li Chunfeng: "Junior brother, I don't blame you for this matter. After all, how can I discuss this matter with you? After all, this is about the court's legal system that restricts us, and according to these contents, we walk in the world. Many of my disciples are no longer suitable to practice in this sect.”
well
Wuyouzi sighed heavily and took out a note from his arms: "These are the terms we originally discussed. It seems that many things can no longer be requested. Please discuss how to change it."
