Chapter 41: Compromise

There was a strange thing in the city of Chaozhou today, some people gave doctors and medicines on the street, and provided free medical treatment to poor people. None of this is strange, but it is strange that every time someone comes here and sees it, the person who administers the medicine will preach loudly after seeing each patient: "May the god of light bless you!" The God of Light is with you~! This made many people feel like they were in the fog and didn't know why.

Many people have already seen that at this time a religion is propagating its own teachings, and the people who have become accustomed to the gods and Buddhas have said that they are blaspheming the Buddha. In the same way, many poor people who are sick and have no money and cannot be well cured, but in their lives they are not only healed, but they are also able to get enough food to survive the most difficult times during their recuperation. In this way, although many people scoffed at it, the number of people who saw a doctor here gradually increased.

On this day, someone outside the Chaozhou Governor's Mansion beat a drum and complained that there were people in the city who were bewitching the people. It is said that they are not only preaching heretical cults, but also curing many incurable diseases with witchcraft. The governor of Chaozhou is very strange, how can there be a strange religion in the place under his jurisdiction, but if other people's families have broken any laws, they can't easily arrest people, so they went out to the place where the medicine was given.

When I came here, Xiong Zhizhou had never seen people dressed like this, and almost everyone was dressed in white inside and outside to serve, as if they were going out of a funeral. There are large chest ornaments on the chest, all of which are black cross circles. And three or four of them were holding in their hands a white pole, long or short, with the tip of the pole resembling a silver-white circle cross of an ornament.

At this time, the young man in charge of reception at the door hurriedly came to Xiong Zhizhou, and his right hand on his chest drew a cross out of thin air and asked: "God of Light bless you!" If this brother comes to see a doctor, please take a seat, and the servants of God will heal you of any sickness. ”

Xiong Zhizhou had never been called his brother before, and the guards around him sternly pulled out their waist knives and asked this respectful young man: "Bold! What are you, dare to call my family a brother~! Don't kneel down and beg for mercy yet. Be careful that the knife in my hand does not recognize people. ”

The young man did not panic, but still drew a cross in the void on his chest and said: "This brother, everyone is equal in front of the great and selfless God of Light~~!" You and I are all brothers and sisters. Far Light God forgive you~~! ”

The guards were about to go crazy, but Xiong Zhizhou suddenly stopped him and said, "Confused! What are you and I doing here? ”

The guard immediately put back his waist knife and looked at the young man fiercely, Xiong Zhizhou smiled and said to the young man: "Yes, I came to see a doctor, please let us in." ”

The young man was not entangled, and made a gesture of invitation to let Xiong Zhizhou in, but the guard who was about to step into the door was stopped by the young man, and the guard took out his waist knife and asked loudly: "Let me in, I'm here to protect my family." ”

"You can't bring a murder weapon in front of the God of Light, please put down the knife in your hand." The young man said politely to the guard.

At this time, Xiong Zhizhou had already come to the hall, and the first thing he saw was a statue more than one person high, this statue was carved from white marble, and the back of the statue was made of silver with a large sign that was the same as the sign held in the hand of the servant. Xiong Zhizhou was very curious and walked in front of the statue to watch it carefully, when a divine servant noticed his actions, walked behind him and whispered to him: "This brother, are you looking at our great and selfless statue of the God of Light?" ”

Xiong Zhizhou was already deeply attracted by the face of the god statue at this time, and did not pay attention to what the divine servant behind him said to him. It was a long time before he woke up from his deep question, covered in cold sweat, when he heard the inquiry of the servant behind him.

Xiong Zhizhou pointed to the idol and asked, "Is this really the idol of your God of Light?" ”

"That's right! Brother, this is the idol of our God of Light. The servant replied very respectfully to the idol.

Xiong Zhizhou whispered to himself at this time: "Why is the face of the god statue so similar to Hou Ye?" If you get rid of the beard, it will be a statue of the Hou Ye! Could it be that this Holy Sect of Light has something to do with Hou Ye? ”

When the servant saw him talking to himself, he prayed to the idol and said respectfully, "Bless you!" The God of Light is with you. ”

Xiong Zhizhou reacted when he heard the prayer of the divine servant, hugged his fist very respectfully, and said with a smile: "May I ask you are the divine servant!" ”

"Yes! I am a faithful servant of the God of Light, and only the God of Light is worthy of our admiration and service. The servant of the god replied respectfully.

At this time, Xiong Zhizhou was still about to ask about the origin of this God of Light, but suddenly heard his own guards and people arguing at the door, and the guard's tone seemed to be about to start.

After Xiong Zhizhou saw the statue, he had already made up his mind not to get involved in this, and he heard that his guards wanted to hurt people. immediately rushed to the door and scolded loudly: "Bastard, don't put down your weapon quickly!" Do you want to do something with a respectful servant of God? ”

The guard immediately looked at his master in amazement, and he didn't know, he didn't understand why his master went in to investigate, and when he came out, he changed into a person, he suddenly roared loudly: "Sure enough, it's a cult, my lord just went in, and in a blink of an eye, he changed a person, why don't you let my lord come out quickly!! ”

When Xiong Zhizhou heard the reckless guard say this, he immediately crooked his nose, walked up to the guard, and beat the guard awake with two big mouths, and then scolded the guard: "Bastard! Why don't you shut up quickly, is it possible that your master and I have no brains like this, and I will be deceived as soon as I go in? You idiot! ”

The guards were beaten the most crookedly, and then they realized that their master had not changed, and he smiled and whispered to his master: "Master! I just saw you go in, and they will give you money so soon? ”

"Smack~!" Another slap in the face, Xiong Zhizhou didn't know what to say now, and immediately ordered: "Get out!" Get out of here~! ”

Back in the mansion, the guards just now had been slapped no less than ten times, Xiong Zhizhou said with relief: "No one should make a noise about this matter today, and no one should take care of this Bright Holy Sect, if anyone is in charge, be careful of your head." ”

"Sir! That's not your rule! The butler next to him asked after seeing the surprised scene.

"You know a fart, this matter may have a lot to do with Hou Ye, if you anger Hou Ye, you and I will die without a place to bury. No one will care about this matter in the future, I want to see if the Hou Ye is supporting them behind their backs. Xiong Zhizhou stared at the door at this time, and his eyes glowed.

The steward asked, "Then if someone smashes their yard, we don't care?" ”

"As long as it's not ours who go, the others wait and see." Xiong Zhizhou said in a low voice at this time.

Three days later, Xiong Zhizhou received the holy decree. Asked them to escort Yu Qing into Beijing to listen to the triage of the three divisions, Xiong Zhizhou took the holy decree Zhou and asked the housekeeper to bring a box of gold and silver and said: "Father-in-law Hai, don't you know, Yu Qing has fled overseas, and the lower officials and others don't know where he is, and ask the father-in-law to return to the saint and explain it in detail." ”

Gonggong Hai glanced at the gold and silver box on the ground, nodded not very much, and said: "Long live this matter, it is specified that Yu Qing will be arrested, but now Yu Qing has already run away." It's not easy for the miscellaneous family to explain to the Long Live Lord! ”

Xiong Zhizhou asked the housekeeper to take out a tray again, took off the red silk cloth on his face and said: "My father-in-law must take care of him on his behalf, and at this time, the lower official has a little heart." ”

Grandpa Hai's eyes instantly lit up and stared at the things on the plate, and he quickly nodded and said, "Hmm! The miscellaneous family must be around for Lord Zhizhou, and now that Yu Qing is running, Xiong Zhizhou can send a sea fishing document. ”

Xiong Zhizhou was immediately full of joy and thanked Gonggong Hai: "Thank you Gonggong Hai for becoming a complete official." ”

"Huh! Xiong Zhizhou, don't say that. You and I are both working for the emperor, and it is reasonable for the prisoners and pirates to run away together, and the emperor will definitely understand. Grandpa Hai said with a smile and playing with the big pearl in his fist.

"Yes! Be! Be! The father-in-law is wise, and the emperor is sage! Xiong Zhizhou said.

After dealing with the Qin Mission, Xiong Zhizhou was completely down-to-earth in his heart, thinking of the promise of the Hou Ye to give him a promotion, he happily hugged the concubine for a night, and fell into a deep sleep.

In the deep palace, Zhao Yun of Song Lizong was holding the noble concubine Jia Shi and drinking and having fun, but Zhao Yun was never happy. Jia asked coquettishly: "Why is the emperor so depressed, can you tell the concubines?" ”

"Hey!" Zhao Yun sighed and looked at the Jia family in his arms and said: "My loyal minister has been designated as a rebel minister by Shi Miyuan, I really want to distinguish for him, but ~ hey! Zhao Yun drank a glass of wine bitterly and shook his head.

Jia Shi thought for a while and looked at Zhao Yun and comforted him gently: "Is the emperor talking about knowing the military state Yuqing?" ”

Zhao Yun nodded helplessly, and Jia Shi hurriedly whispered: "Your Majesty, you are really confused, then Yu Qing should have died a long time ago, why is the emperor still sad for this person?" ”

"Why did Concubine Ai say that?" Zhao Yun looked at Concubine Jia a little angrily.

Jia Guifei sat up from Zhao Yun's arms and whispered: "Although Yu Qing is extremely loyal, but the second person acts Meng Lang, it has long been rumored that Yu Qing offended Chaozhou Hou Yang Liren because of his entry into the city. This time, it must have been someone who had offended Shi Miyuan a long time ago who ended up like this. Your Majesty, you are now joining forces with the Queen Mother, you must not offend the Queen Mother, Shi Miyuan is now in power, and you can't offend, if you resolutely protect Yu Qing, this person will definitely lose a big loss, so Yu Qing has to die. ”

Zhao Yun understood a little, but he still didn't want Yu Qing to die in his heart. At this time, Jia Shi said: "What Yu Qing is eating now has offended the people of both sides, so no matter what, now Yu Qing's matter, Banzai must admit his treason, Banzai will withdraw and wait quietly to return to the army." In the future, Shengchao State will be known as a military state, so that the Queen Mother and Shi Miyuan can fight, and long live only to wait and see the changes and reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”

Zhao Yun listened, although he was a little unhappy, but Jia's every word was for his own sake. He took Jia into his arms and said, "Concubine Ai is really my caring person!" ”
