Zhao Ji looked at the mysterious ledger carefully, and felt that it was what Tao Daxian said.

"Your Majesty look at this again, this ......"

Zhao Ji saw that the name of the same unknown text began to appear gradually and intensively on the ledger, and finally became unique, and it was very likely that the expenditure of money was gradually concentrated and the amount became larger, and he couldn't help but nod in agreement, but he couldn't understand who the text referred to or which anti-thief force he was referring to, and asked Tao Daxian with puzzled eyes.

Tao Daxian smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't be disturbed by the words on this paper and be confused by this. The presiding officer of the Great Xiangguo Temple and the head of the monk in charge of money, it doesn't matter what the name is marked on the account book, they know it in their own hearts, they can see it clearly, and they can make it right. The names of the two ledgers are different, but the date and amount are the same, and the flow and amount of the two books can be matched. Blindfolding, confusing and bothering people's ears and eyes is just a small means. The only name that is different in the two books is actually Hebei anti-thief Tianhu. Your Majesty has to correspond to reality and find answers from it. “

Zhao Ji suddenly realized, he was indeed smart and perceptive, he flipped through the account book and checked it, and pointed to a name that was added later: "Could this be Huaixi rebel Wang Qing?" “

"Hehe......"

"Your Majesty really has a deep wisdom root spirituality, and he is worthy of being the reincarnation of an immortal, even if he is a mortal and is locked by the Heavenly Dao to avoid disturbing the world, he is still comparable to an extraordinary person."

In Zhao Ji's pride, Tao Daxian pointed to the account book record, "Please look at the date of the appearance of the additional expenditure items after this, is it after Wang Qing's assassination?" “

Zhao Ji naturally paid more attention to the Huaixi anti-thief puppet Chu State, which threatened Tokyo closely, and knew more about the thief leader Wang Qing, knowing why Wang Qing was assigned, when he was assigned, and roughly when he became the king of the mountain in desperation, and when he became the king.

This time, without Tao Daxian's detailed explanation, he himself was able to compare the account book with reality, and perfectly corresponded to the trajectory of Wang Qing and Daxiangguo Temple's gradual increase in support.

After breaking through the mystery of the ledger, everything is clear at a glance.

Zhao Ji was extremely resentful in his heart, and he hated the rebellion of the Buddhist sect led by the Great Xiangguo Temple in vain.

Tao Daxian chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. The two thieves were arrogant, but they couldn't make a big deal, but it was not from the Great Song Dynasty, and it would not affect His Majesty's fortune. “

"To put it bluntly, the essence of these two thieves is just the demon beast mounts used by the Upper Realm Buddhism, one is a black tiger, the other is a white tiger, on the orders of the master, with the convenience of the King Bodhisattva of the Earth to control the underworld on behalf of the Buddha Gate, the secret reincarnation of the lower realm separates the north and the south to make chaos together, and assists the Great Song Buddhism to deal with His Majesty by force in a more direct and effective way."

"Under the general trend of the Heavenly Dao, His Majesty's throne will not fall. The reason why the Buddhas are still so directed at His Majesty is not to try to influence or even change the general trend of the Heavenly Dao, but to weaken His Majesty's merits in governing the world in troubled times, damage the growth of His Majesty's immortal roots, and most importantly, weaken the luck of our sect. “

"Judging from the reality of Tianhu Wang Qing and the two thieves, the two of them are vulgar and vicious, and they are extremely bold, and they are notorious in the past, but their intelligence is generally not a master, and they do not have the appearance of an emperor, which shows that although their nature is extremely vicious, their cultivation is not high, their skills are limited, and their wisdom is also limited. Buddhism does not have to work hard and be wronged, and has more strength to fight in the mortal world. As long as you can mess up the Great Song Dynasty and ruin the luck of Your Majesty and me. ”

Zhao Ji was immediately relieved when he heard this, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately remembered the gang of rebels in Erlongshan. It was a big hazard that almost cost the life of Murong Guifei's brother. Because his brother-in-law, Murong De, the prefect of Qingzhou, was constantly rescued by Chao Gai, he also knew a lot about Erlong Mountain, and he hated it in his heart and was now suspicious.

"The gang of Erlong Mountain? Is Chao Gai the reincarnation of a monster in the Nether? ”

Tao Daxian shook his head and denied Zhao Ji's speculation, "That has nothing to do with Buddhism." It's just a gang of greedy people who are greedy for money and eventually have to go into rebellion. ”

Zhao Ji thought of the pirate country that had caused the Great Song Dynasty even worse and the threat was so great that it was impossible to govern at all.

"Not really."

Tao Daxian shook his head and denied: "Overseas fierce bandits are just rampant, relying on the advantages of fierce and good warfare, talent skills and plundering everywhere, and convenient geographical location of the sea. Their roots are overseas, their advantages are overseas, and what they like and are accustomed to is the evergreen climate and convenience of food and clothing on the overseas islands. What they like is to rob everywhere, and the overseas territory is enough for them to occupy and rule, and they are not interested in the Central Plains Continent, and they do not have the strength to take care of such a large territory as the mainland, they just grab everything they need or are jealous, they want to show their strength, and they want other countries to submit and pay tribute honestly. ”

Speaking of this, Tao Daxian said with a little meaning: "This overseas force is indeed powerful, although it is a barbaric mortal, although it has nothing to do with the conspiracy of Buddhism, although the pirate country hates all the so-called people who do not work hard, such as the Buddhist monks who are waiting for people to make offerings, but it is so strange and unreasonable to treat robbery as a serious labor and be proud of it, but if Your Majesty does not handle it well, if it is not handled properly, if it is because of something that completely angers the pirates and provokes the pirates to be determined to destroy the Song Dynasty, it is really dangerous." ”

If only pirates didn't come to rob me.

Zhao Ji's heart was a lot calmer, and he immediately remembered the person he hated and had to rely on.

For this person, his mentality is very complicated, he is extremely jealous, he can't kill him immediately, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and he has some sustenance and expectations.

This person is naturally Zhao Gonglian.

"Marquis Wencheng?"

When Tao Daxian heard that Zhao Ji finally asked about the point, he couldn't help laughing, and he didn't want to open his mouth to come.

"This Hou Ye is far more than others in both civil and military affairs, he became famous at a young age, a genius from the past and the present, so smart and capable that it is incredible, people can't help but suspect that he is the reincarnation of the immortal god, and Su Hui is so powerful. Poor Dao had long heard of his name, and he had doubted it, and he had passed his roots in his early years. But it's not that I don't know, but I don't know, hehe......"

Zhao Ji was eager to know the answer, and couldn't help but ask, "What?" ”

"That's a man of all kinds!"

Tao Daxian deliberately sighed, and in Zhao Ji's sudden frightened and doubtful eyes, his voice was lowered very low and said slowly: "Your Majesty, this person is indeed extraordinary. His roots are neither immortals, nor demons, nor monsters, nor belong to any realm of supernatural beings, he is a person, a mortal without any magical powers, but he is a great good man of the ninth world. ”

"Good man?"

As soon as he heard that it was not a terrible god and demon, Zhao Ji suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, did not doubt this statement at all, and was so relaxed that he smiled and muttered casually disdainfully.

What is there to be afraid of a good man?

No matter what the world, goodness is the best existence to be bullied. To put it bluntly, the wealth, glory, and authority of the upper ruling class are all based on the good and deceitful people of the lower class.

Zhao Gonglian is a good man, and he is still the ninth generation, no matter how capable he is?

Whether it is the status of an immortal or the current emperor, it is easy for me to play him to death.

At this moment, he forgot the helplessness and shame of having to peel off his face again and again and beg Zhao Gonglian to go out of the mountain to guard the border for him.

Tao Daxian glanced at Zhao Ji, and saw the filthiness in his heart at a glance, and even more despised the arrogance and naivety of this conceited, intelligent and talented son of heaven.

"Your Majesty, don't you think that the Ninth World Good Man is rare and powerful?"

"Rare? What's so hard to come by? Terrible? What is so powerful about a good man that people can be afraid of? ”

Zhao Ji muttered so disdainfully in his heart, of course he couldn't say it directly to make Tao Daxian despise.

He made a gesture of listening attentively, trying to maintain a solemn and serious look, but the arrogance, disdain, and superiority in his eyes could not be completely concealed.

Tao Daxian chuckled and said, "It's not easy for a good person evaluated by the upper realm to do it. That is not to do a little evil, not to have a little flaw in conduct. Unlike the mortal world, as long as you don't kill people and don't do great evil, as long as you do more good deeds, the merit is far greater than the fault, and the good is far greater than the evil, and the person who is concluded to be good can be called a good person. “

"It is extremely difficult for the standard of a good person in the upper realm, or a good person recognized by the definition of the Heavenly Dao, to achieve it in one lifetime. There are so many living beings in the world, passively trapped in the need of survival, who can be noble and perfect? The Confucian sage Confucius also did the punishment of Shaozhengmao. ”

He stretched out his hand and gestured with a nine-character figure, "Ninth World, Your Majesty can imagine how difficult it is. And that Hou Ye did it perfectly, it was like nothing in the ages. The gods and demons also had to be respected. ”

Zhao Ji was surprised, and even shocked.

"For the fate of this marquis, the key issue is not that the ninth generation is respectable as a good person, but that he has inadvertently touched the limits of the Heavenly Dao. Under the way of heaven, the ten generations of good people can automatically transform into immortals if they are perfect. This immortal is amazing. He is on top of the power of the gods and demons who have already attained the Tao after I don't know how many years of penance, and he can be compared to the supreme Taoist Buddha of the upper realm. said that he is powerful because although he has not practiced spells, is not proficient in supernatural powers, is not good at fighting, and is just a simple mortal lucky ascension, but blessed by the Heavenly Dao, he is not touched by all laws, all evils are not invaded, and all calamities are difficult to harm, except for the rules of the Heavenly Dao itself, no one can take him. ”

"The Buddha with boundless mana and vast wisdom will also pass away from the tribulation, reincarnate and rebuild the golden body. Ten generations of good people can live forever, and they really live with heaven and earth, and compete with the sun and the moon. Even if the heavens and the earth are destroyed and everything returns to chaos and primitiveness, he will still be with the way of heaven and eternal with time. ”

"Your Majesty, please think about it, such a god, under the way of heaven, who dares to offend him easily? Offended, he can beat you. No matter how powerful you are, you can't help him. You won't do anything to him. Even if he doesn't know spells, can't directly threaten your life, and can't hurt you, but if he goes against you, troubles you every day, stares at things that are bad for you, and even bad luck for you to fall into calamity, under the way of heaven, you will have the path of Dao Fruit Immortal and even the danger of your life, this is not terrible enough? ”

Zhao Ji couldn't help but nod again and again.

Encountering such a lord is really a headache, and you can't afford to provoke it, so you can only hide.

He thought that Zhao Gonglian was similar, which gave him a headache but was helpless, and he believed Tao Daxian's words more and more.

Tao Daxian hasn't finished yet.

"Besides, after the tenth generation of good people became immortals, he would naturally start cultivating, and under the protection of the Heavenly Dao, it was more convenient to comprehend the laws of the Heavenly Dao, and he had more cultivation advantages than other gods and demons, and it was easier to penetrate the mysteries of the Heavenly Dao, and he could quickly cultivate the magic powers, and in the blink of an eye, he would become an immortal with vast magical powers and boundless mana."

"Your Majesty, think about it, what will be his position in the Upper Realm at that time? Uh, huh? ”

Zhao Ji frowned and pondered: "If you become an immortal, your status is already on a par with the ancestors of the two sects of Taoism and Buddhism, and then you have boundless wisdom and magical powers, wouldn't you necessarily become the supreme immortal?" ”

"Your Majesty, do you say that the good people of the Ninth World are rare, are they terrible?"

Zhao Ji nodded: "Indeed, cough cough, it's very much." But that's not what I want to ask. ”

Tao Daxian said with a solemn expression: "I know that Your Majesty is worried. I was about to say this. ”

"For the Upper Realm, it is nothing for a good person of the Tenth World to become the Supreme, it is nothing more than to become the Emperor of Heaven. For the two teachings of Taoism and Buddhism, you cultivate your Tao, I cultivate my Buddha, and he should be his emperor to manage the heavenly court, and each has nothing to do. Everyone can enjoy the immortal paradise together. The problem lies in the fact that this good man of the ninth generation is firm and compassionate and benevolent, but none of the nine generations believe in Buddhism, and the ninth generation is evil to the monks and temples, thinking that the monks are deceiving the world and harming people's hard work and interests, and they have no good feelings towards the gods and Buddhas, and they have no respect for Taoism. If you insist on dividing which sect he belongs to, it can only be said that it is Confucianism. However, he adhered to the virtues of loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness preached by Confucianism, but he did not have a good impression of the popular secular Confucianism itself. In addition, in addition to morality, he also believes in Taoism and nature, which is biased towards the pursuit and belief of Taoism. And so, the incident came out. ”

"Your Majesty, do you think, for such an extraordinary mortal, how can the Buddha Sect have a good impression of him? How could he be allowed to naturally complete the ten generations of good people and become immortals, disgusted with Buddhism? ”

Zhao Ji agreed: "Categorically not." “

"If he becomes an immortal supreme, not to mention directly opposing Buddhism, he is only slightly biased towards Taoism, and breaking the balance between the two religions is unbearable and intolerable to Buddhism."

Tao Daxian smiled: "Therefore, Buddhism will take advantage of the convenience of the Dizang Bodhisattva sitting in the underworld to do things in reincarnation, so that this ninth great benevolent man can be a man in the tenth life. Successfully became a wealthy person with unlimited power and glory, but also because he had to manage national affairs, involving too many people and too many racial interests. ”

As soon as he said this, Zhao Ji, as the emperor, immediately understood that he stroked his beard and smiled: "State affairs, racial affairs, and world affairs are so complex and contradictory. When an official handles a conflict and defends this side, it is inevitable that he will harm the other side of the conflict, and no matter how smart a person is, he will inevitably make mistakes and do evil. The Nine Good Men are afraid that it will be difficult to be trapped in it. A war between the two countries alone will inevitably result in murder and innocent casualties. This is evil. If you do evil, the good of this life will be destroyed. The merits of the good men of the ninth generation are all lost. Buddhism is brilliant. ”
