Chapter 158: Ruling by Inaction (Ask for Subscription!) )
…
When Zhao Ji first succeeded to the throne, although there were many women around him, there were not many children.
Because Zhao Ji accidentally picked up the omission and sat on the throne because his brother Song Zhezong had no son, Zhao Ji didn't want to inherit the incense without a son like his brother.
So, Zhao Ji began to ask for help from the magical Taoism.
At that time, a Taoist priest named Liu Mingkang said to Zhao Ji that through observation and calculation, he believed that the emperor's young son had something to do with the topography and feng shui of Bianliang, Tokyo, especially the low-lying terrain in the northeast corner of Bianliang City, which seriously affected the emperor's heirs.
After Zhao Ji listened to Liu Laodao's words, he hurriedly arranged for people to pile up a huge rockery in the northeast corner of Bianliang City, in order to make this rockery more in line with Zhao Ji's artist's vision, Zhao Ji also asked people to go to all parts of the country to collect strange flowers and plants, rare stones and rare beasts to fill, this is the famous Long Live Mountain, and because it is in the position of the gossip, it is also called Gen Yue.
Miraculously, since then, Zhao Ji's favored concubines have continued to send good news of pregnancy or childbirth, and the concubines in the harem are like hens laying eggs in the chicken shed, one after another, and they have given birth to dozens of children for Zhao Ji in more than ten years, making Zhao Ji almost become the emperor with many children in history.
This made Zhao Ji admire that Liu Laodao, and he believed in the magic of Taoism.
There was once a Taoist priest who left a proverb before Zhao Ji succeeded to the throne: "Ji people should succeed to the throne." ”
This is actually a casual sentence, because no matter who inherits the throne, they can be called "Jiren", and they can't be offended anyway, just like saying that "Jiren has his own natural appearance".
But Zhao Ji had to stubbornly sit down, saying that "the combination of the word 'Ji' and 'people' is exactly 'Ji'".
In short, there is a reason why Zhao Ji is superstitious about Taoism.
The reason why it has reached a peak in the past two years is because Zhao Ji suddenly felt a little powerless in the past two years, and he felt that his body was not as good as before.
In fact, this is normal, no matter how you say it, Zhao Ji is already in his forties, and he has been a groom day and night for all these years, how can it be compared with before?
But Zhao Ji doesn't think so.
He believes that this is because he has been too focused on politics and cultivation over the years.
At this time, there was an old man named Wang Laozhi in Linpu, Puzhou, who claimed to have been awarded the elixir by Mr. Zhongli of the Han Dynasty, and became an immortal, abandoned his wife and children, and became very famous.
In order to invite pets, Wang Kang, the servant of the imperial servant, visited the grass house three times, brought him into the Beijing Division, first raised him in Cai Jing's house, and then chose a suitable time and dedicated it to Zhao Ji.
When Wang Laozhi saw Zhao Ji, he didn't speak at first, but presented a pile of ink treasures.
Zhao Ji took it over in confusion, and then his eyes almost fell, it was full of poems, the top one was the bedside words and pillow poems he wrote to Qiao and Liu Erguifei, and then looked at the others, all of them were silver poems written by him.
This old Taoist even knows this, and he must be an immortal!
Zhao Ji immediately announced that he would give Wang Zhenren the title of "Mr. Miaoguan Mingzhen Dongwei".
It's a pity that this "Mr. Miaoguan Mingzhen Dongwei" turned out to be a short-lived person, although he had an elixir to protect his body, he also got seriously ill and died in the second year.
However, Zhao Ji didn't have the time to regret it, because another Dao master with higher mana came down.
According to his own words, he met Xu Xun Xu Zhenjun during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, got his true biography, and was granted the Taoist Seven Yuan Secret Books such as "Big Cave" and "Hidden Book", which can know the life and death of people before and after 500 years.
Zhao Ji was overjoyed, gave the name "Chong Yin Shi", and entered the seal of "Mr. Tongmiao", and placed him in the Shangqing Baoqi Palace to live.
The culmination of Zhao Ji's admiration for Taoism was the emergence of Lin Lingsu.
Lin Lingsu said: There are nine heavens in the sky, and the gods are the highest. The king of Shenxiao Yuqing, the eldest son of God, the lord of the south, and the one who is called the immortal monarch, is Zhao Ji. He also said that Cai Jing was originally the Zuo Yuan Xianbo in the sky, Wang Hao was a Wenhua official, Cai You was the Baohua envoy of the Yuanyuan, Tong Guan and other cadres were also listed in the immortal class, and he himself was the original Xianqing named Chu Hui in the Shenxiao.
I see!
I see!
It turns out that everyone used to be so familiar with each other, the same people in the immortal class, no, they are both immortals in the immortal class, no wonder they are so attached in this life!
In addition to being delighted, Zhao Ji named Lin Lingsu as "Mr. Tongzhen Daling", rewarded him without calculation, and gave him a gold medal, he could enter and leave the palace at will, and built a real palace for him to practice and live.
In order to let the whole world know that he was God's eldest son, Zhao Ji ordered Lin Lingsu to preach the secret of Emperor Qinghua's descending to Xuanhe Hall on a moonlit night in Shangqing Baoqi Palace.
That meeting, attended by 2,000 Taoist priests, was really the pinnacle of Taoism.
In order to expand his influence, Zhao Ji built another Renji Pavilion, widely distributed Fu Shui, and opened the Shenxiao Treasure Altar, and ordered the people of the world to accept the Shenxiao Secret Urn.
Soon, Zhao Ji ordered the construction of Shenxiao Yuqing Wanshou Palace throughout the country, there was no Taoist temple, the Buddhist temple was rebuilt, and the statues of the gods such as the Immortal Emperor and the Qinghua Emperor were set up in the hall.
Lin Lingsu is responsible for the main Taoist book, correcting the scriptures and rituals, proofreading the spirit of the Dan Sutra, deleting and revising the annotations, and holding a meeting on the seventh day of the first month, repeating the story of the birth of the Three Caves Taoist Sutra and the Yuqing Shenxiao King.
Lin Lingsu also made several miracles such as "Qinghua King Comes to the Altar during the Day" and "Fire Dragon Divine Sword Descends to the Inner Palace at Night", which made the teachers and people of Beijing believe in Taoism.
In order to let more people know that he is the eldest son of God, Zhao Ji sent an edict and said: "I am the eldest son of God, the emperor of Taixiao, seeing that China was alienated by Buddhism, I asked to be born in the world, so that the world can return to the right path. ”
How could the Dao Zong Yuan not listen, and immediately canonized Zhao Ji as the "Sect Leader Daojun Emperor".
At the same time, Zhao Ji asked the Dao Urn to canonize Empress Guo of the harem as the head of the Jinting Sect and Empress Meng as the head of the Huayang Sect.
In turn, Zhao Ji canonized Lin Lingsu as the Wenzhou Yingdao Army Festival, and after that, he was added as "Kinmen Yuke", "Tongzhenda Lingyuan Miao", "Taizhong Doctor", "Ning Shen Temple Attendant", "Ruizhu Hall Attendant", "Chonghe Hall Attendant" and so on.
Seeing that Zhao Ji was so pious and so enthusiastic about restoring the glory of Taoism, Lin Lingsu said to Zhao Ji, "Buddhism specializes in mutilating Taoism, and now although it cannot be eradicated, they can be merged into Taoism. ”
Zhao Ji felt reasonable, so he issued an edict: change Buddhism to Taoism, change the clothing, change the left and right streets to the Institute of Ethics, and change the Department of Monk Records to the Department of Morality, which is subordinate to the Institute of Ethics.
All in all, Zhao Ji was completely addicted to the art of immortality, and was determined to glorify the sect led by his sect leader, the Daojun Emperor, and had no time to care about the trivial matters of a few thieves and three or two state capitals.
Ann.
The gods of the Immortal Emperor, Qinghua Emperor and other gods will bless the eternal stability of the Great Song Dynasty, and will bless the old Zhao family to inherit for generations, a little uneasy factor is just a test of whether the gods are pious to him Zhao Ji, as long as he Zhao Ji is pious enough, the gods will definitely calm all the uneasy factors for him Zhao Ji.
So, just do nothing.
