Chapter 150, New Immortals
Liu Zhi's death did not affect the world much. The emperor of the Han Dynasty died early and had no children, it was not a matter of one or two times, the mechanism of the Han Dynasty was still running very smoothly, Dou Miao first respected himself as a queen mother, and then promoted his father Dou Wu to a general. The father and daughter spent a long time, and then picked a circle in the clan, and finally selected Liu Hong, the twelve-year-old Marquis of the Xie Mansion.
Liu Hong received the edict and ran non-stop from Hejian to Luoyang. On the twentieth day of the first month, he arrived at the Luoyang Xiamen Pavilion, and on the twenty-first day of the first month, he was made the emperor.
Under the questioning of the ancestors, Liu Zhi still didn't remember which of his relatives Liu Hong was.
Standing on the top of the main hall, he didn't say a word for half a while, and since he hit Chang'an City, he has been isolated by this group of ancestors. Although he was not beaten up like his predecessors, he still didn't get any good treatment. The ancestors had a lot of opinions about his absurdity, the country was so poor, and he still accepted so many concubines, was he a pervert? Even if it was one for one, it would take three and a half years, how long had he been in power......?
Liu Bang has a deep grudge against this, he, an old ancestor, has never enjoyed it so much, when he was the emperor, he couldn't get together four white horse-drawn carts.
Seeing that Liu Zhi was speechless, Liu Bang asked again: "Whose grandson is Liu Hong?
Liu Zhi wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said heartily: "There are too many children of the clan, and it is really difficult to remember which line Liu Hong is from for a while. ”
Liu Bang glanced at Liu Zheng, who was standing behind him, and asked, "Do you know whose grandson Liu Hong is?"
Liu Zheng took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and said while looking at it: "Liu Hong, the great-great-grandson of Liu Wei, is the sixth son of Liu Wei, the king of Hejian, the grandson of Liu Shu, the first Marquis of the Jiedu Pavilion, and the son of Liu Chang, the former Marquis of the Jiedu Pavilion. He is 12 years old and his mother is Dong. ”
Liu Bang nodded, looked at Liu Zhi again, and said in an unkind tone: "Now that you remember that Liu Hong is one of your relatives?"
Liu Zhi nodded and said, "I think of it, there is indeed a Pavilion Marquis of Hejian Country. ”
Liu Bang asked again: "What is the character of this Liu Hong? Is it suitable to be an emperor?
"Big... Probably, I haven't seen Liu Hong either, so I don't know too well. Liu Zhi's words are a little unconfident, the old Liu family has been passed down for so many generations, there are so many relatives, and there are too many people to do the waiting, where can he recognize it.
Liu Che frowned and asked, "When you were the emperor, you didn't summon the clan to gather in the capital?"
Liu Zhi shook his head, do you still want to do this? When was it so troublesome to be an emperor, didn't the previous emperors never do it?
Liu Che's brows furrowed even tighter, and he said, "Aren't you worried that there will be people in the clan who have bad intentions and plot to usurp?"
Liu Zhi thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, what are you worried about, they want money or not, they want no one, what do they want to rebel ......"
Liu Che didn't say anything, he did everything he could to guard against the clan, but there were still many ambitious people who jumped out, but now he can't defend himself as the emperor, and the clan is so honest. Is it possible that there have been changes in the world over the years that I don't know or don't understand?
Liu Xiu was secretly happy, it was all his own credit, and the restrictions on the clan were much more powerful than the emperors before Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, so for more than a hundred years, there has not been a rebellious clan.
Liu Bang's impression of Liu Zhi is not very good, nor is it too bad. Although Liu Zhi is ridiculous, except for the more than 5,000 palace concubines, most of the other things can be understood. Liang Ji is so fierce, it is really not easy for Liu Zhi, the emperor, to do it. It's just that as the emperor, he is actually the head of the Liu family, but he doesn't even have an impression of his relatives, has the kinship been weakened to this extent?
Liu Bang still didn't lose his temper with Liu Zhi, but instructed Liu Zheng: "Find out where Liu Hong's father is, and if you can, bring it over to me." ”
"Yes, Gaozu!"
Stretching his waist, Liu Bang slowly got up from his position, and made an appointment with Fusu to go to Meng Po's to drink soup today. The recent movements of the Qin Dynasty were very strange, and he had to be tempted.
One by one, the emperors walked out of the main hall in order, Chang'an is such a big city, there are countless affairs to be dealt with, the vast majority of the current decision-making circle is the group of emperors of the old Liu family, and only a few are the heroes of the past dynasties from the founding of the country to the present. Wei Qing has stepped down from the position of general, tens of thousands of people have been beaten, and Wei Qing can't come to the narrow battlefield.
Chen Ping doesn't come much now, and the state under his jurisdiction is not easy to manage now, and the newly dead ghosts are very different from those in the early years, either with a strong resentment or a trace of anger. The security of the prefecture is not very good now, and every time a large number of criminals are sent in the judge's mansion for trial, the engineering team in Fan Zeng's hand has tripled as before, and Fan Zeng is now also a headache.
Since Liu Xiu's revival of the Han Dynasty, the kingdom of the Han Dynasty has changed from Chang'an to Luoyang. Most of the rich people in Wuling also moved away, and from the Honggu Plain, the rich Chang'an is still prosperous, but it lacks the former part of the spirit.
Zai Yu squinted his eyes slightly, looking at Chang'an from afar, he had lived for more than a hundred years, but he still maintained the appearance of a teenager. The years have not left any traces on his face, and he has been practicing the method given to him by his uncle when he was a child, and now he can be regarded as a great cultivator.
Turning his head and looking in the direction of Luoyang, the luck of the Han family was obscure, this was a call for a change of dynasty. There will be no eternal kingdom on earth, let alone an eternal royal family. The Liu family has enjoyed the country for nearly 400 years, and it is time to change the owner.
Yu Ji didn't know when he appeared behind him, bowed down, and asked respectfully, "Master, what are your instructions for calling your disciples here?"
Zai Yu didn't look back, and slowly spoke: "How is Zhang Jiao's Taiping Qing Collar Book practicing now, and how is the Taiping Sect developing?"
Yu Ji said: "Zhang Jiao's cultivation has been completed, and the Taiping Sect now has hundreds of thousands of members, and it has become a climate. It's just..."
"Just what?"
Yu Jixin said: "Zhang Ling, who is in the same place, has not gone to the world, if something happens at this time, I am afraid that this Zhang Shi will be lured out." ”
Zhang Ling? Zai Yu smiled and said, "It's okay, your master just sent a message across the border a few days ago, Zhang Ling has already made a perfect merit in the world, and he is about to ascend, so it will not interfere with our affairs." You go and tell Zhang Jiao to continue to expand the believers and wait for the changes in the world. ”
"Yes, Master. ”
After Yu Ji should get down, he didn't leave for a long time. Zai Yu didn't say anything, he just stood quietly behind. Zai Yu naturally knew that the apprentice was still behind him, and he also knew what he wanted to ask, but he didn't know if he should give him an answer now.
The master and apprentice stayed on the Honggu Plain for a long time, and the sun slowly set on the mountain in the west, and the shadow of the moon could already be seen in the sky. There is yin and yang between the earth, and if there is a sun, there should be a moon. The relative harmony of yin and yang is the most fundamental truth, isn't it?
Zai Yu slowly spoke: "You want to ask me, why do you practice to Lin Immortal, but you still can't get the guidance of the realm?"
Yu Ji fell to his knees and pressed his head against the ground. Said: "The disciple is presumptuous, please forgive the master!"
Zai Yu shook his head with a smile and said, "Your doubts are normal, why should I be angry because of this." When cultivators in the human world go to Lin Immortal, they will be led away by the boundary. Except for our department, there is only Zhang Ling as an exception. Zhang Ling didn't ascend because he had the responsibility of preaching, but we didn't, did we?"
Yu Ji nodded and said, "Please also ask the master to solve your doubts." ”
Jae Yu didn't answer his question directly, but asked him one thing: "How is your E'er, when do you plan to get married?"
When Yu Ji heard Shizun ask about E'er, he showed a smile and said, "E'er, she is very good, she is about to be promoted to an earth immortal, and we plan to marry after she ascends to an immortal." ”
"Very good, do you know what the immortals of the world are like, and what the rules are?"
Yu Ji shook his head, where would he know about the affairs of the realm, he was just an earth immortal, he had not yet been guided by the realm, and his understanding of the realm and the underworld came from the master in front of him.
Zai Yu said with some emotion: "Your ancestor once had a Yan Jun in the underworld, who was fair and never made mistakes. But because of his emotion, the realm changed, and he fell from the immortal, so he had to abdicate his position. There was once a pair of fairy lovers in the world, and after the love affair was exposed, they were punished by the emperor, knocked down to the mortal world, and experienced the pain of reincarnation. ”
Yu Ji couldn't understand the words of the master, and the love word seemed to have some influence on the immortals that he didn't know.
Zai Yu continued to explain: "The gods of the past, conform to the principles of the earth, forget their feelings and go to the public. All the cultivation of filial piety and all the realms are piled up on such a basis, and this kind of private matter has the basis of forgetting love, and it has naturally become a poison against the gods. If you are emotional, your foundation will not exist, and everything will be empty. ”
"Ah!" Yu Ji asked worriedly, "Then me and E'er?"
Zaiyu pressed his hand in mid-air, signaling that he didn't need to get excited.
"Don't worry, we are not that kind of immortals, we will not be affected by those, the deeper your love, the heavier your thoughts, the higher the realm, but the disadvantage is that you can't get the guidance of the realm, you can only stay in the world. But the world is always more interesting than the world, and it's interesting to see those Chenghuang lands busy every day, isn't it?"
Yu Ji didn't say anything, but his head was pressed tighter on the ground.
Jae Yu was still talking, and his tone was very flat. "Originally, this land was ruled by the ancient gods. Later, the ancient gods were replaced by immortals, and there was a pattern of today's two worlds. Now, countless years have passed, and it's time for something to change. Yu Ji, follow as a teacher and become a new immortal in the future life!
Yu Ji got up respectfully and slowly left Hongguyuan.
A few lone geese flew through the air, letting out bursts of wailing. Zai Yu looked into the distance again, it was an ordinary house, on the outskirts of Chang'an. There was an old man in the house who was about to die, lying weakly on the bed.
The family stood by the bed, their faces stained with tears. In the corner they couldn't see, two ghost pawns were standing there waiting, waiting for the old man to die.
The previous Chang'an City God was promoted to immortal and was transferred back to the realm. The new Chenghuang has not yet been officially transferred, and now it is all Guan Longxiao alone.
