Lu Zheng didn't know that Taoist Master Mingzhang went to the chanting hall every three days to lead the team, because he had already returned to Tonglin County.
However, neither Si Lingxi nor Liu Qingyan's family came back. The only one who came back was Shen Ying. ...a cloud and rain, charming and charming.
...After the business is done, you can talk about some gossip.
"What's going on at this City Emperor Conference?" Lu Zheng said, hugging Shen Ying. Shen Ying laughed when she heard this.
"It is said that it is no different from usual. I went to see General Xin first, and I went to Yizhou Mansion with General Xin to find Mr. Lu, and then we went to Yanzhou Daocheng Emperor Temple together." The name of Yizhou City Emperor Lu Yuxing was a governor during his lifetime, and he was a competent official. After his death, he was canonized by the imperial court as the Emperor of Yizhou City, enjoying the incense of the state and cultivating the incense and fire Shinto.
Lu Zheng once heard Xin Zhanting mention that despite his usual carelessness, he respected Mr. Lu very much.
"It's still my family." Lu Zheng smiled.
"Master Lu said that he often heard Master Chu mention you, but unfortunately he never had the opportunity to meet you." Shen Ying curled her lips and said,
"When you meet me this time, I specifically asked me to tell you that you are welcome to visit me as a guest." Lu Zheng nodded.
"Next time when I go to Yizhou Mansion, I'll go and pay a visit." Lu Zheng has now passed the stage of specifically going to pay homage to the dock, so he can just drop by.
Lu Zheng believed that if the city emperors of various places were not allowed to leave their posts without permission, Lu Yuxing would definitely find an opportunity to visit him.
Not to mention that Lu Zheng is currently in the limelight at the New Year Dharma Assembly in Baiyun Mountain. Even the Deputy Supervisor of Qintian Prison does not dare to respect him in front of him, well, although it is because of Si Lingxi.
However, with Lu Zheng's current status, visiting Yizhou Chenghuang Temple as a guest would definitely give Lu Yuxing some face.
Shen Ying continued to tell her story,
"The conference was held at Yanzhou Chenghuang Temple. It has to be said that Yanzhou Chenghuang Temple is larger than Tonglin County Chenghuang Temple. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a small town. Lingbei Road governs seven states and sixty-two counties, plus I, a total of seventy people are present at the City Emperor Conference. I mainly want to review what happened in various places in the past ten years and report on the changes in the Nether World in the past ten years. Of course, I will also introduce the newly appointed City Emperor. After all, in the past ten years, both Some city emperors died at the end of their lifespan, others died at the hands of ghosts from the Netherworld, and some city emperors were promoted and left because of their merits in suppressing enemies, leaving the official positions for new people to take over."
"Huh?" Lu Zheng asked curiously,
"Brother Xin didn't get promoted?" Xin Zhanting wiped out Yeshan with the help of Lu Zheng a few years ago, and has also expanded part of the Nether World in recent years. Isn't he qualified for promotion?
Shen Ying paused and said helplessly,
"General Xin's contribution is enough, but perhaps his talent is limited. Although Tonglin County has not been short of incense in recent years, General Xin's strength has only grown limited..." The city emperor system is different from the civil service system in the underworld. If you want to be promoted, , in addition to merit, your own strength must be in place, otherwise how can you suppress the proud soldiers under your command?
Especially for top leaders, strength is definitely the first thing that needs to be ensured. Although Xin Zhanting has made enough contributions on the battlefield in recent years, his strength has not caught up. He will either go to the higher-level City Emperor Temple as a deputy, or he will continue to stay in office, and at most he will be promoted by half a level in official position.
Xin Zhanting obviously chose the latter. Instead of obeying others, it is better to be his local emperor in Tonglin County. Anyway, with his strength, it will definitely be no problem to block the forces in the Netherworld of Tonglin County. From time to time, he can also drink and eat meat with Lu Zheng and Yue Honghai. Don't live too comfortably.
"Understood, actually this is good." Lu Zheng nodded,
"The water in the Netherworld is very deep. He is here in the corner, standing in a stalemate with Broken Blade Mountain and Corpse Pond, but it is safe." Regardless of the ghosts Lu Zheng encountered in the Netherworld, almost all died in his hands. Above, such as the Night King, Black Wheel King, Night Bone Lord, Snow Clothes Princess, etc., but this does not mean that the ghosts are weak.
Not to mention other things, Xue Yiji also has more than two thousand years of Taoism. His senior brother Wanhua Holy Infant is stronger. It can only be said that the characters in the world are more powerful, and they also happened to hit the iron plate.
But this does not mean that Xin Zhanting can survive when he confronts them. On the contrary, if he randomly encounters one, he will be dead.
Shen Ying continued,
"In addition to these things, there are also rewards from the imperial court for the merits of the city emperors in the past ten years. In addition to royal incense, there are also elixirs, techniques, treasures, and rewards for the city queen's legacy in the world of the world." Lu Lu Zheng nodded and said with a smile,
"You have contributed so much to the City Emperor System. Is there any reward from the court for you?" Shen Ying smiled, raised her hand gently, and a jade seal appeared in her hand.
The jade seal is overall a bluish green color, with a pale pink color on the surface. The jade seal is only one palm wide, and on the back is a blooming turquoise peach blossom.
Shen Ying turned over the jade seal, and Lu Zheng saw two elegant and round convex inscriptions carved on the bottom of the jade seal: Peach Blossom Fairy.
The jade seal itself exudes a strong scent of incense, and also has a majestic atmosphere, giving people a feeling of majesty and solemnity, and guests from all directions.
"Is this...the royal incense?" Lu Zheng asked. Shen Ying nodded,
"This is the incense gas that has been purified by the ancestral lineage of the Dajing royal family. It carries imperial power and is three points more powerful than ordinary incense gas, just like the power of a dragon. This year's City Emperor Conference, the Zhongjing City Emperor Temple Sect He came in person and gave me the Peach Blossom Fairy Seal. From then on, my Peach Blossom Temple will be under the direct jurisdiction of the Emperor of Zhongjing City, and all Peach Blossom Temples in Dajing will be under my jurisdiction."
"Okay! It's amazing!" Lu Zheng praised. Although Shen Ying is consistent with "Taoyao", because of the spread of this poem, self-built Peach Blossom Temples in various places, as long as they worship "Taoyao", they must share her incense. This reward from the Dajing court is more like Kang Shenying My own generosity.
But the accounts cannot be settled that way. After all, in terms of identity, Shen Ying was only a local god of incense and fire consecrated by the emperor of Yizhou Fucheng before this. Although her roots have transcended the Dajing Dynasty, if "Taoyao" is not extinguished, her incense will continue. .
However, if you want more incense and practice at the most efficient speed, the best way is to cooperate with the court. Even the top Buddhist Taoist sects only nominally obey the leadership of the Dajing court.
After all, the court could not help Shen Ying, but if it wanted to cause trouble, it would be too easy.
"The court didn't put any conditions?" Lu Zheng asked.
"No." Shen Ying smiled sweetly,
"It's no secret that "Tao Yao" was written by you. I have Baiyun Temple as my backer, so the chief ceremonial director of the Zhongjing Imperial Temple is very polite to me."
"Ouhou?" Lu Zheng raised his eyebrows,
"You didn't expect me to have such a great reputation?"
"Isn't that right?" Shen Ying said with a smile.
"Then why are you thanking-"
