In Chang'an, Gao Buyi came to Yin Mansion of Chang'an Prefecture——
"This Li Qian is really begging for rain. Such a big Yin Mansion in Chang'an has such a strong smell of incense." Gao Buyi sneered.
When I came to the back office, I saw an old Taoist priest moving back and forth around an incense table, muttering something: "Five emperors and five dragons, descending the light and moving the wind. Spreading moisture widely, assisting Thunder God. From all over the world, water is the most important. The divine talisman orders you." , Changchuan obeys. Anyone who dares to violate it will not be tolerated by the thunder axe. Be as urgent as the law."
There were five or six young Taoist priests sitting behind them. Looking carefully among these young Taoist priests, Li Gan was among them.
The most annoying thing is that Li Gan is not only praying for rain in a Taoist priest's uniform, but he also has many people watching. What is he doing? Do you want the world to see a joke from the Tang Dynasty?
When the famine came, the officials of the Tang Dynasty did not actively provide disaster relief, but instead started to practice here. Is the imperial court a bunch of magicians?
After reading this, Gao Buyi was very angry: "Li Gan!"
Li Qian, who was reciting the mantra, was startled by the sudden sound. At the same time, the old man was also very dissatisfied: "Where did you come from, you dare to shout loudly here and startled the gods. Do you still want this Chang'an Mansion to continue to be a big disaster?" What's the matter? Come on, arrest this person."
This old Taoist has been trapped in Chang'an Mansion with his disciples for some time. He thought that the opening of the altar this time would be as smooth as before. He would recite incantations, eat and drink for seven or eight days, and make money, and God would For beauty, some rain will fall from the size.
I don't know what evil the Tang Dynasty emperor has committed. Let alone seven or eight days, it has been more than 20 days in Chang'an Mansion. The sky is still clear and there is no sign of rain.
Fans of Li Qian's method of opening a forum are beginning to become suspicious, which makes the old Taoist feel very flustered. It doesn't matter if the sign is smashed. If word gets out, it will be difficult for him to hang out among Chang'an dignitaries in the future.
Hi! Coincidentally, just when I was about to fall asleep, someone came to give me a pillow. I don’t know where this fool came from, and he actually disturbed the execution ground. Now I have something to say. It’s not that I’m a seasoned person and I’m not good at magic. It’s really a fool who sabotaged it. .
The previous unhappiness that Fu Yin Li Gan insisted on putting on Taoist robes and joining the Lao Taoist team to pray for rain was wiped away now. It was better for Fu Yin to see this with his own eyes, so as not to say that he was cheating, and the Lao Tao felt happy.
After hearing what the old Taoist said, Gao Buyi was speechless. The little trick of standing on the moral high ground before speaking was all left over from him. Besides, the old Taoist was playing tricks with him regardless of life and death. This was not a mouse licking a cat to seek death. So, why? Because he is the emperor now, he is born with a halo, and he always stands on the moral high ground.
At this time, Li Gan had clearly seen the person coming and was startled. If this had happened before, he would not have been nervous because Xuanzong was also a Taoist enthusiast before, and the two of them might be able to chat about some Taoist experiences. Now Now, I don't know what the wrong link was, and he actually drove the immortal master who had made elixirs for him out of the palace. Although Gao Buyi didn't publicize this matter, anything that happened in Chang'an could escape Li Gan's eyes. Not much.
Gao Buyi glanced at the old Taoist, snorted coldly, and said to Li Qian: "It's really unfair to let you be the governor. Since you like to wear Taoist robes so much, that's fine. I just passed by Yunxian Temple outside the city and found that all the Taoist priests there If you run away, you can become the master of the temple, and I will give you another hundred taels of silver to repair the Taoist temple."
Hearing this, Li Qianru was struck by lightning. He knows best what kind of virtue he is. If his official position is still there, he can still invite some people with deep Taoism. If his official position is not guaranteed, he will not be allowed to open a clan again. These Taoist priests should be beaten to death. The key is to occupy the magpie's nest.
He immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "Your Majesty clearly knows that I am also worried about the people, so I spent a lot of money to hire a mage to do the magic. Please forgive me this time for the sake of my loyalty."
"Are you still loyal? Do you care about the people? If it hadn't been for people starving to death this time, you would still have kept me in the dark. In the county you govern, the county magistrate actually left the affected people behind to give birth to his mistress, and you are even more confused. Well, disaster relief does not rely on personnel but relies on illusory things. As a parent, doing things is haphazard and divorced from reality. How can you still have the nerve to say that you are doing it for the people affected by the disaster!? This is really a joke. Go be your Taoist priest. , come here!”
At this time, many Shence troops poured in from the outside: "Take Li Gan to the Yunxian Temple outside the city and serve as the temple's master. Send these Taoist priests out of Chang'an, take back their ultimatums, and confiscate their corrupt officials' money at the same time!"
"yes!"
After crying for his father and mother for a while, Gao Buyi returned to the palace and asked the Ministry of Household Affairs to send someone to take over the position of the governor of Chang'an to direct the disaster relief until the governor of Chang'an was trusted to take office.
After Li Gan was dismissed, Yang Guozhong could no longer sit still. Considering everything the emperor had done in the past six months, it was obvious that this was directed at him, as Li Gan was his confidant.
At this time, Yang Guozhong and Mrs. Guo Guo had just passed through a lot of things, and the two were entangled in the red tent: "The situation is getting worse and worse." Yang Guozhong said worriedly.
"What's wrong?"
"Ever since the old man woke up from coma in Yuanri, he suddenly changed his gender. He used to like to be with the imperial concubine, and he also obeyed her words. Now he has started to scold her. A few months ago An Lushan came to Chang'an because of Fan Yang Jiedushi's affairs, you still remember."
"Remember, even though Your Majesty did not agree to the imperial concubine's request, didn't he later make An Lushan the general of the Northern War Zone?"
"What's the use of this? It sounds like the name is much bigger, but the number of subordinates has not increased, and the power is much smaller."
"Aren't there tens of thousands of sailors in the Bohai Sea?"
"Then An Lushan will not obey his orders. That is His Majesty's nail planted in Pinglu."
"Are you thinking too much? Huan'er is still a royal concubine."
"What use are you? I heard that His Majesty is setting up an unprecedented Tang Academy. Concubine Wang Guifei is also involved, but Huan'er is not allowed to participate. This is an obvious alienation."
"Fortunately, I thought he was going to be promoted when he dismissed me from the post of Jiedushi Envoy of Jiannan. I didn't expect that this was coming for us. Now Anlu Mountain is also restricted. Once the imperial court completes its control When Pinglu officials are replaced, they will probably settle the matter with us, but no, we can't just sit back and wait for death."
"Don't be impulsive. Hasn't His Majesty not directly targeted us yet?"
"By then it will be too late. This Li Qian is not up to par. We must fight for the key position of Chang'an Governor. If Li Linfu or Pei An's people are allowed to take the position, it will be difficult. The old guy will die. Really If that doesn't work, let's elect another person to be the crown prince and kill the old guy directly." Yang Guozhong said, got dressed and left.
Mrs. Guo Guo was frightened by Yang Guozhong's words. Was she planning to rebel?
At this time, several people gathered in Li Linfu's mansion.
"Master Xiangguo, we have been eyeing the position of Chang'an Governor for so many years, and now we are finally going to change it, so we must fight for it."
"Of course I know this, but now that the emperor's heart is unpredictable, how should we start?"
"It's simple. Leave it to me. Please ask the Prime Minister to first find out who your Majesty plans to use. Then I will take him to whoring or bribe him. If he listens to us, that's it. If he doesn't, he will be discredited."
"Okay, let's do it like this. You go back and prepare. I will go to the palace early tomorrow morning and recommend our people first. If not, we will see who His Majesty likes."
"yes!"
