"That kid is just a poisonous fever, I have taken medicine to settle down temporarily, whether it is life or death, and it depends on whether that nine pockmarks can be used. If you can't use it, let the child die and plant it on Zhang Jiu Mazi. If it can be used, the child will live, coerce Zhang Jiu Mazi, and spread our good name. In short, with Zhang Jiu Mazi as a bridge, let's gain a firm foothold here first. ”

"Holy Aunt is wise! It's just that there is Catholicism behind that nine pockmarks, I heard that it is almost an official religion on the Nanban side, let's go against this sect, will there be big trouble? ”

"What's the trouble, what are you afraid of here? Without the Holy Aunt, we all had to be poisoned by the butcher that year, and only the Holy Aunt could lead us to continue to expand the teaching industry. ”

At night, in the corner of the mill in the village, several men and women protected Mi Wuniang and were discussing in a low voice.

"What kind of sect is Catholicism!? What god do they worship? God! God is something that ordinary people can worship, and can they invite supernatural powers? Only the emperor can ask for supernatural powers, and this Catholicism is a business that robs Buddhists and Taoists......"

When it comes to Catholicism, Mi Wuniang looks disdainful.

"God doesn't have any magical powers, just who sits on the dragon chair in this world. Has God taken care of our people? When we were bullied by dog officials and bullies, where was God? When the family was plagued by the military master, where was God!? ”

A thick indignation rose on his face again, and tears flowed in his eyes.

Then the light turned into a blazing heat: "Our Longmen Sect comes from the White Lotus Orthodox Vein, the lifeless old mother of Feng, exhausted life and death, and the supernatural power is greater than God!" Vacuum hometown, no oppression, no need to work, eclipse honey, everyone is pro, only the childless mother can build a vacuum hometown for our poor people! ”

The people asked no more questions, but reverently folded their palms and reverently recited.

Outside the city of Jiading, the bamboo frame sets up the outline of a dome building, and in the bamboo shed next to the building, the candlelight is bright, and a group of linen-robed people are also chanting scriptures in a low voice.

If it weren't for the rhythm of chanting, most outsiders would think that a group of scholars were reciting the book of sages, the content of which was both Taoist morality and Confucianism's benevolence, all of which were exhorting people how to cultivate themselves and be kind to their neighbors.

After reciting the scriptures, an old man in a linen robe began to instruct the people: "My Catholic practice is only to seek merit, to worship the heavens, and to stand on the path of life and death. With compensation, persuasion, purification, and righteousness as the karma of life, and memorials, public graves, and crossing the soul as the karma of death, the root of the convergence of the two karma of life and death, and the Chinese bloodline contained in the Bible includes the rich and the poor. ”

"Drawing talismans and practicing witchcraft, fools and evil spirits are not the right way of heaven. The whole text is free of advertisements, and even if you join the religion, you must also practice on the right path and abandon the wrong paths of the past. ”

Everyone below nodded one after another, and there was still a look of longing in their eyes.

When these people dispersed, only the old man and a bookish young man were left in the shed, and the young man said: "Teacher, although these people are literate and teachable, most of them are gods, let them tour the countryside, will they recite the scriptures crookedly and ruin the reputation of my church?" ”

The old man sighed: "No one is available, now in this Jiangnan, literate people, either in business for profit, or enthusiastic about careers, not many people are willing to concentrate on the cableway." These gods and men have won the hearts of the people in the countryside, not only are they literate, but also understand some superficial medical theories, educate them, and spread the network of people's hearts, so that more people can face up to our teaching. ”

The young man said with a hint of disdain: "Jiangnan scholars all claim to be moral, benevolent, and righteous, and sages are in their hearts. But after changing the court, they all wanted to seek profit, but they didn't know that in my Yinghua, the way of the sages had been taught by me. To keep the way of the saints and sages, to educate the hearts of the people in the world, and to join our Catholicism is the right way. ”

The old man smiled: "The sages don't talk about ghosts and gods, and there are not many people who can pass this threshold, so naturally I don't know that in my Yinghua, Taoism is not only worldly, but also about life and death, and then talk about ......"...,

Worry appeared on his face again: "My sect is not single-minded, there are Spirit Sect, Holy Sect, Rational Sect, Qi Sect, and mixed with Taoist Sect and Buddha Sect, our Renzong is still only a Holy Sect tribe, there are many disputes, the roots and bones are not condensed, Jiangnan scholars are not clear, and they are regarded as ordinary Taoist sects that worship Buddha and worship God, so they naturally do not want to be contaminated." ”

The young man excitedly said: "There are many sects in the sect, and the doctrines are not unified, which is a good opportunity for my Renzong to gain the avenue......"

The old man shook his head and admonished: "My sect has only been established for more than ten years, and the meaning of the establishment of the sect is to pursue the way of heaven from life and death, and condense my Chinese bloodline. The teachings also come from the sages and Taoist Buddhas, which is a fusion, not a seizure. Just like the Holy Dao Emperor Jianye the world, it is not one from one generation to the other. The avenue is three thousand, and what I teach is the one that can accommodate the coexistence of three thousand. With the lonely generation of the group, that is the devil's way. ”

The young man said ashamedly: "The teacher is right, the disciple's demon heart is not exhausted......"

The old man said again: "Don't be discouraged, our Holy Sect has turned the way of Confucius and Mencius into life and death, and many scholars who are immersed in Confucianism in Lingnan have entered our Renzong......

The young man was overjoyed: "If Mr. Kong joins the church, our Renzong will leave the Holy Sect and become a unique sect." ”

The old man nodded: "What you were worried about just now is also a big deal, these new township patrol sacrifices have to be watched, and they must not be allowed to ruin the name of my Renzong." Not only did they have to communicate with the heavenly temples, but they also had to report to the government and ask them to pay more attention. ”

When the master and apprentice were talking in the shed, the previous group of village patrol priests were also chatting with each other.

A lean man complained: "Since we can practice medicine to save people, why don't we drive away those Langzhong in the township and monopolize this business?" ”

The other person frowned and said, "We practice the Heavenly Dao, how can we do it as a business?" ”

The thin man cut off: "Pang Er, who are you, I Zhang Jiu still don't know?" We have a new backer, can we get more money from those stupid villagers? ”

The man looked left and right, and when he saw that no one was paying attention, he said: "Zhang Jiu Mazi, be careful when you speak, talk nonsense, your hands and feet are too thick, and no matter how much blessing you have, you have to throw away all the blessings." ”

Zhang Jiu Mazi snorted lowly, his face full of self-satisfaction: "I'm alone over there in Luodian, and it's not up to me to decide what to do." ”

Jiangnan camp, Liu Xingchun approved official documents one by one, Jiangnan is still in military management, and he, the head of the Jiangnan camp, is essentially the governor of Anhui, Jiangsu, and Jiangnan Province.

"For the resettlement of refugees in Shandong and Henan, since Tang Xiang is in Longmen, don't just pay the fee petition for one quarter, but directly hand over the whole year, and I will hand it over to Tang Xiang for approval."

"The river engineering yamen of the Yellow River, our camp is still only in charge, what exactly is in charge, we also need the general office to find out the Manchu to figure out the upstream river workers, you can take this opportunity to recruit more people, anyway, the silver will have to be let out of the Manchu Qing at that time."

"Nian Qianyao's spies are so rampant in Jiangbei, in broad daylight, and dare to coerce the old Qing officials? Urge the Governor of Han to let his men and horses be deployed in the north as soon as possible, and then transfer to the Janissary Guard...... No, the Department of Military Intelligence, this matter is military, it is in their hands, let their cats catch the rats well. ”

There are also a large number of officials sitting in the hall, this is Liu Xingchun working on the spot, every time he talks about something, an official will take the official document after approval. When the Jiangnan government was first established, it was not possible to operate as smoothly as Lingnan, and Liu Xingchun could only intervene forcefully and push government affairs with his own skills.

"Since the scale of the Shandong and Southern bandits is not large, there is no need to make a big splash. Those who injure others and kill others shall be directly dealt with as a civil case, and those who proselytize and confuse the people shall act in accordance with the "Religious Order". ”

When he opened a newspaper, it was said that there were signs of activities of White Lotus and Maitreya in Jiangning, Zhenjiang and Changzhou, but Liu Xingchun didn't pay much attention to it, and casually ordered a group of prefects in the hall.

Earlier, the White Lotus Sect in the north was in turmoil, but the Manchu local government was not damaged and could still deal with it, and Li Wei also left a set of disposal measures when he was the governor of Zhili, and the chaos in various places gradually calmed down. Shandong was in chaos, and the two bandits gathered tens of thousands of people and occupied several counties, but Nian Qianyao entered Shandong and suppressed the banditry very neatly. …,

Comparatively speaking, the chaos caused by the White Lotus Sect in the north was not as great as the suppression of the White Lotus Sect by the Manchu government in various places, so a large number of refugees went south, and naturally there were defeated sect leaders and followers.

This matter was vigilant by Jiangnan Xingying, but it was not a big deal, so it was handled routinely according to the business process. The north and the south are different, and these bandits from the north can't toss any storms, and the harm is not even as good as the remnants of the Zhongqing organizations such as the Dayi Society that did not flee north after the defeat and were scattered in the south of the Yangtze River.

Speaking of the White Lotus Sect, Liu Xingchun's subordinate, Peng Huang, who joined the Jiangnan Xingying Army, added: "Nian Qianyao and Zhou Kunlai have both sent news, listing the names and shapes of the forces that have rebelled against the various sects and the relevant sect leaders, and the Praetorian Guard and the Military Intelligence Department have also found their own investigations. The camp is now issuing a document to all provinces, and each province is chasing the counties and townships to keep an eye on it. The main purpose of the disposal is to punish those who have not committed disorderly missionaries, these people only want to live, and the government will guide the people to disperse and keep more guards. And those who do disruptive preaching, as the governor said, just do what is done. ”

Zheng Xie, the prefect of Songjiang, opened the small notebook in his hand, wrote down the words "Clearing the Bandits" with a hard pen, and then marked the word "Chang" at the back to show that this matter needs attention, but it is not a top priority.

Thirty-two prefectures in three provinces, the prefects are all cadres transferred from the country, most of them are acting prefects in the county, but Zheng Xie is the prefect, not only in charge of Songjiang, but also in charge of the former Manchu Qing's Taicang Zhili Prefecture, the current Taicang Mansion, the official fortune is prosperous, and it is a popular candidate for the future governor of Jiangsu, so Zheng Xie is also very careful.

Receiving a thick stack of information, Zheng Xie flipped through it casually and secretly gasped.

The White Lotus Sect, the Red Yang Sect, the Longmen Sect, the Maitreya Sect, the Great and Small Luo Sects, and dozens of sects, how many followers of each sect, who the head of the sect is, the relationship between the inheritances, the things that cause chaos, and the general movements of the sect are all clearly listed.

Although this information was assisted by Nian Qianyao and Zhou Kunlai, the main body was completed by the Praetorian Guard Administration and the Military Intelligence Department. Although the cadres of the Military Intelligence Department have all gone to the northwest, the Jiangnan department is still operating normally. The rebellion of the northern bandits was naturally regarded as a single business by the Military Intelligence Department, and great efforts were made to investigate. At the same time, because Jiangnan was already in the bag, the Praetorian Guard Department also took over the previous Tiandihui system, and began to investigate all kinds of "dissidents".

This information is the work handed over by the two departments with an annual input of at least one million taels. Originally, the scholars in the court and China were very unpleasant to the secret espionage affairs, and the secret spy department was listed as an official department of the imperial court, spending a lot of money every year, which caused a lot of complaints. Zheng Xie also had the concept of governance of the previous dynasty in his mind, and he felt that the national government should be unfair, so why should he still carry out secret espionage with great fanfare.

Now seeing this information, what the Heavenly Dao Sect said, "Secret espionage is the way to stabilize the country, whether it is a blessing or a harm, it only depends on whose authority is in charge", which suddenly had an extremely clear embodiment in Zheng Xie's heart.

"Maitreya Sect, Liu Zhenren, Longmen Sect, Grandma Mi ......"

Looking at the names of the sect leaders one by one, Zheng Xie felt that these people were also quite pitiful, and the imperial court had long been eyeing them, whether it was a blessing or a curse, just in their own thoughts. And life and death are also in the thought of the government represented by themselves.
