Back in the vertical arch hall, before he could heat up the dragon chair, Lu Chengqi saw an attendant hurriedly come in. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Your Majesty, Xu Jingchun, Director of the Supervision Department, requests to be seen!"

Lu Chengqi had already seen Xu Jingchun swaying from side to side in the regular direction, there must be something like this. It has been more than ten years since the monarch and the minister coexisted, and Lu Chengqi had long known Xu Jingchun's habits. This person can't hide anything from him, even if he is the intelligence chief.

"Let him in!"

Lu Chengqi felt a little dizzy in his head, and couldn't help but close his eyes and press his hand on his temple. Year after year, day after day, the tedious work is carried out, even greater than the workload of those white-collar workers in later generations, which is not something that ordinary people can bear.

"Could it be that the emperors of ancient times were not keen on expanding their territory because they thought there were too many things?" Lu Chengqi had thought this more than once, and besides that, he couldn't think of any reason to explain that an emperor actually had no pursuit of land and people.

However, Lu Chengqi has no such worries at all, as long as the cabinet mechanism is functioning normally, let alone the current territory, it will be doubled, and Lu Chengqi is confident that he will govern well. If it's a big deal, expand the cabinet, and with the assistance of central ministers such as participating in political affairs, left and right servants, etc., what is the problem of governing the country?

During this time, Lu Chengqi worked hard, but the cabinet was reshuffled, and the work had not yet started.

However, Lu Chengqi believes that with the ability of those cabinet ministers, it will not be a problem to get started with these tasks at all, and even after a period of time, his burden will be much easier. The free time was enough for him to plan how to provoke the relationship between Liao and the surrounding small countries.

A strong Liao state on the side is definitely not in the interests of Dashun.

There is a saying that "by the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore"? The two powerful countries are bordering each other, and there will definitely be a war.

Lu Chengqi was thinking endlessly with his eyes closed, when a voice suddenly came: "Your Majesty!" ”

Slowly opened his eyes, withdrew his hand from his temple, and asked lightly: "Xu Qing asks to see, isn't there something wrong again?" ”

Xu Jingchun showed a look of the emperor, you are really a clever man, and said: "Your Majesty, the secret agent of the Supervision Department has discovered the traces of the Ming Sect!" ”

"Mingjiao?"

Lu Chengqi has also watched "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", of course he knows what Mingjiao represents, a special rebel organization!

"Mingjiao was introduced to Middle-earth from Persia, and Middle-earth is called Mingjiao, and Persia is also called Zoroastrianism and Manichaeism...... which has been designated as a cult in the previous dynasty, and I never thought that so many people still believe in such cults Xu Jingchun said a little indignantly.

Lu Chengqi thinks it's nothing, most of the people in the world are fools and fools, how many people really have their own opinions? Don't say that now, even in the future generations, aren't there some old men and aunts who have been cheated by unscrupulous health care products to get their pension money? In the future, there will be an explosion of information, and there will be a place for scammers to survive, let alone now.

In the same way, these cults are all deceiving the people to believe in religion, or to display martial arts, or to commit "miracle" deceptions, promising to believe in xx and gain eternal life.

After tricking people in, these careerists began to plot against them.

Perhaps in the official history, Mingjiao did make great contributions to the Han people's drive out of the Tartars, but now it is the country of the Han people, they all want to rebel, Lu Chengqi, as the emperor, how can he tolerate them?

"Did the Inspectorate find their lair?"

Lu Chengqi said casually, this year is not a famine year, it is a famine year, with Changping and the Grand Canal, plus shipping, unimpeded official roads, food and clothing can be transported, are you afraid that someone will rebel? Besides, most of the people's hearts are towards the imperial court, and only Mingjiao can set off any waves!

He firmly believed that as long as he adhered to the new policy and the people knew the benefits of the imperial court, where would they risk killing their heads to rebel? That's full and supportive, and there's nothing to do!

"Back to Your Majesty, according to the secret agent's report, they have been mixed into the Ming Sect for a while, and they are only pawns, and they have never touched the core secrets. But they discovered that Manichaeism in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Mingjiao in Fujian, 'Erjunzi' in Huainan, 'Siguo' in Jiangdong, 'King Kong Chan' in Jiangxi, 'Jiedi Zhai' in Jinghu, White Lotus in Ludi, and Zoroastrianism in Luliang Mountain...... It's all another name for Mingjiao! ”

Lu Chengqi smiled: "Didn't you know it a long time ago? The so-called 'Red Lotus and White Lotus are one family', these are the remnants of the rebellion of the previous dynasty, and I have heard of it for a long time. Xu Qing rest assured, as long as there is no chaos in the court, these people can't afford to make any big waves! ”

Xu Jingchun didn't dare to refute, and even claimed that it was.

"I'd love to know, what is their doctrine?" Lu Chengqi has read "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", and once really thought that the doctrine of Mingjiao was to "drive out the Tartars", but it is obvious that Mingjiao at this time did not "keep pace with the times".

Xu Jingchun hurriedly said: "The teachings of Manichaeism are probably written in Persian, and after the secret agents recorded them, the ministers and others took them to be translated, to the effect that at the beginning of the world, there were two kingdoms of light and darkness coexisting, and light occupied the north, east, and west, and darkness occupied the south. In the kingdom of light, there is light, goodness, peace, order, and purity. The ruler of the Kingdom of Light, known as Chawan in Persia, means eternal, and in Dashun he is called Ming Father and Da Ming Zun. The Dark Kingdom is full of fireworks, stuffiness, hurricanes, sludge, and poisonous water, and is ruled by the Dark Lord, where five types of demons live, indulging in lust and quarrels all day long. Light and darkness have fought several times, and the Dark Lord has made demons give birth to human ancestors. Because humans are the descendants of the demons of darkness, the Great Ming Zun sent the messenger of light to save the souls of mankind with the light molecules. ”

Lu Chengqi listened with relish: "This is unusual, the teachings of Manichaeism are probably good, but they are too ruthless and completely contrary to the teachings." The so-called light and darkness are just two sides of human nature, that is, good and evil. Punishing evil and promoting good is the right way. They are good, punish the good and promote the evil, is there any reason to be invincible? ”

Xu Jingchun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is really a celestial man!" ”

"Less sycophants!" Lu Chengqi scolded with a smile, thought for a while, and then said slowly: "Mingjiao believes in the victory of light over darkness, which was wrong from the beginning. Where is the light without darkness? Just like people, there is no evil, where is good? Good and evil are just interdependent, the positive and negative sides of human nature. Just imagine, how can a newborn baby be good and evil? ”

Xu Jingchun didn't understand Lu Chengqi's words, in fact, he was refuting Mencius's theory of "human nature is inherently good" and Xunzi's theory of "human nature is inherently evil", thinking that a newborn person is just a blank piece of paper, and if you teach him to be evil, it is evil, and if you teach him to be good, it is good.

“…… If there is no distinction between good and evil, then the whole world will be even more chaotic. Lu Chengqi's eyes flashed with wisdom, "Whether it is good or evil, light or dark, it is just a natural thing." In the end, it is a foreign monk who does not understand the truth of 'Taoism and nature'! (To be continued.) )
