Chapter 329: Dominating the Taoist Affairs of the World
The vassal kings, envoys, and courtiers entered the Xuanqin Palace, and the high-ranking king was no longer like just now, revealing his emotions, he was still unpredictable, and he was so high.
The emperor looked at everyone and showed a smile that was not easy to detect, obviously there was a spirit among the people, and it could be seen that the emperor was in a good mood.
But as for why they are in a good mood, they don't know.
The ceremonial official was also in the palace at this time, which was different from the situation when Fang Cai Runye and Jin Yuanjing saw the emperor alone in the Xuanqin Palace.
The present pilgrimage is formal and dignified.
The ceremonial officer shouted, "Kneelβ"
Everyone knelt down in unison, kneeling down under the emperor's body, and prostrating under the ten thousand zhang golden luan.
"Bye-"
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."
"Xing-"
The crowd slowly got up, then knelt down and shouted the holy name.
Que Haoyi looked at the people under him, and sighed deeply, he was the emperor and the lord of the people. The world is big, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.
The princes and vassals kneeling below are all the fruits of his efforts to keep the world.
What the future holds, Que Haoyi doesn't know, but at least he is complete today.
On the third day of the first month of the thirty-third year of Zhengde, thirty-three years after he ascended the throne, he was successfully promoted with the assistance of Ji Yuzhi, and now he has seen his son again.
Perhaps all these years of prayer were not in vain, and he at least met the person he wanted to see the most.
Under the emperor's majesty, all the ministers finished their courtesies.
Divided into two rows, the middle place, there are no standers, if anyone wants to talk to the emperor, only walk out of the line and stand in the middle.
Que Haoyi looked at everyone, and his tone was kind, not as sharp as before.
"A year has passed, and I am relieved to see that you are still the same."
Everyone was surprised by the change in the emperor, but they thought a lot about the emperor's old age, so it was not surprising that he had become a little kind.
The ceremonial officer felt strange, because he was in the Ministry of Rites and took the position of a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and the emperor was not necessarily so kind on weekdays.
Now, after a morning, everything has changed.
"All the officials in order, pay respects."
According to the previous rules, the ceremonial officer shouted to the crowd.
Therefore, the officials paid homage to the emperor one by one according to the order set before.
"The envoy of the Western Regions, Atumai, see the Heavenly Khan, long live the Heavenly Khan, long live, long live, long live. The Western Regions were safe and war-free throughout the year, and the Khan of Murd paid tribute to the Khan of the Heavens, and paid tribute to the Western Regions with a total of one stone of jewels and jade, one hundred camels, twenty carts of Hanhai pears, and three carts of various incense medicines. β
The emperor was very satisfied when he heard the tribute from the envoy of the Western Regions.
"The tribute paid by the Khan of Murd is even greater than in previous years, and I said last year that the tribute is too extravagant, and it is impossible to waste money and labor. Reward Mod Khan pearl nine Hu, Luo Zi Dai Sanhu, "Xuanyuan Daozang", 30 cars of various seeds, 30 cars of gold, silver and bronze. Next year's annual payment must be halved. β
"Thank God Khan Longn."
When the envoy from the Western Regions heard this, he retreated very happily, and the rest of the envoys came from different countries, and the rhetoric was the same, and the offerings were all local specialties.
But for the emperor, his favorite food is Hanhai pear, which is found in Ge Hong's "Xijing Miscellaneous", which has the effect of maintaining health.
After the tribute of the various vassals, it was the tribute of the prefects of each place, and it was also a specialty, and there was nothing unusual about it like last year.
The ceremony was almost underway, and the ceremonial officials were a little tired, and in the end, it was enough to ask Zhu Zhanao to come forward to pay homage to the emperor.
"Zhu Zhanao, alternate deacon of the left road of Ganzhou Mansion, come forward to see you."
Zhu Zhanao finally waited for his name, hurriedly stepped forward, and stopped ten steps away from the emperor, he bowed to the emperor very respectfully, and knelt three times and kowtowed very seriously.
The emperor looked at Zhu Zhanao, and suddenly remembered the matter of Runye, by the way, according to Lu Mingci's recital, it was the Zhu family who went to Yunmeng Town to fight the disaster first, and then Runye arrived.
Before entering Yunmeng Town, Runye buried the body for several days.
After the last salute, Zhan Ao stood in the center of the main hall, waiting for the emperor to say something.
But Que Haoyi looked at Zhan Ao standing in the center of the hall because he was thinking about things, and didn't say anything.
Zhu Zhanao was a little nervous, thinking that it might be because the emperor had forgotten about him, but in fact, it didn't matter if he ignored him.
"You and Runye are in the same village?"
Suddenly, the emperor asked, and Zhu Zhanao saluted the superior to show respect.
"If you go back to the emperor, Weichen is a village where he lives with the chief of the Dao Run."
"The plague in Ganzhou, did your Zhu family go to Yunmeng Town first, or did you go later under the call of Daoist Run?"
Zhu Zhanao was still young in the end, and he didn't have too many twists and turns, and he didn't hear the emperor's words.
"If you go back to the emperor, my sister was sent to Yunmeng Town to treat the plague by the government, and the doctor in the city died at that time, and he escaped, and there was really no doctor. My sister is going to Yunmeng Town, and I didn't tell any of us. Then Run Dao Chang went to Yunmeng Town again, I don't know if it was because of the signs or what. β
After speaking, Zhan Ao knelt down, obviously there was no too lofty reason for them to go to Yunmeng Town, it was just because of the high-ranking officials, and it could also be said that there was the coercion of the government.
Just when everyone thought that the emperor was going to be angry, suddenly the emperor laughed, and everyone was very surprised, because the emperor had not shown such a smile for a long time.
"Good boy, everyone else is afraid of me, afraid of me, they report good news and not bad news, but you are very well-behaved, you can't say good news or bad news, but you are telling the truth. These days, only children can tell the truth. β
When Zhu Zhanao heard this, he was frightened, he didn't expect that he was telling the truth, it was such a danger in the ears of others, and it was a terrible thing for the emperor to hear a word of truth.
Que Haoyi stood up, and all the courtiers knelt down at once.
"Zhu is occupied, smart and alert, leading the seven-pin Gyeonggi transfer envoy as an alternate, and personally accompanying the transfer envoy to study for six years to succeed."
Hearing this reward, everyone was very surprised.
You must know that in this dynasty, only if you are admitted to the champion, you can be directly named an official of a county, of course, Zhu Zhanao previously had the official position of eight grades in hand, and now he has been promoted to another level, which is not a big news.
But this kid is only twelve years old! Everyone looked at the childish faces, and the emperor gave him another opportunity to learn, and let him study for six years and succeed him.
And the transshipment envoy has always been a fat shortage, such a fat shortage is someone else spent thousands of taels of silver can't find, and their home happens to be from Peach Blossom Village, which is inevitable to get some to the family.
At this time, everyone felt that the transfer made this official position a good thing and a bad thing for this child.
Maybe this is the bad luck that their old Zhu family should have, if you do it well, it is luck, and if you don't do it well, it will be a disaster.
"I also have a holy decree today, and I will announce it to all the envoys and vassal kings on this special day. Ji's run the night, Degao ghost god Qin, Dao Gao dragon and tiger Fu. Only at this moment, the person who leads the Xuanmen in China is vacant, and he is canonized as the head of Taoism, and he will always be in charge of Taoist affairs in the world. β
When they heard this decree, they were stunned and did not know what to say. I don't know whether to praise or be silent.
What's going on?
Why did the emperor suddenly canonize a Taoist priest who was only a one-sided relationship as the person in charge of Taoist affairs in the world?
Everyone couldn't help but wonder what had happened just now, what had made the emperor make such a decision.
Of course, no one knows why, only the emperor himself.
Everyone was silent for a long time, and Que Haoyi thought that everyone was dissatisfied.
He sneered.
"Do you think I'm joking?"
Naturally, everyone secretly didn't dare to compliment, so they hurriedly complimented them.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live, my emperor for thousands of generations, long life without borders......"
The emperor was very satisfied when he heard the compliments of the crowd. This is still the court he likes, and everything is up to him.
Of course, the emperor didn't think about the future at all, but now, he wanted to give Runye everything the best.
"I have another decree. It is now the third day of the first lunar month, and the sun is resuming, and all the qi is in the yuan. The atmosphere of Chaoyunguan should also be flexible. Last year, a Taoist priest found a cure for smallpox named Jin Yuanjing. Jin's Yuanjing, canonized as the abbot of Chaoyunguan, received everything in Chaoyunguan. Zhang Yuqian gave the Golden Dragon Temple, and he was not allowed to go out without an edict. β
When the people heard such an edict, they were even more surprised.
Before, they believed that Zhang Yuqian must be the first Taoist priest in charge of Taoist affairs in the world, because he was very young and a good person, but who knew that in fact, the emperor had long been dissatisfied with him.
This dissatisfaction was like a plague that had been taking root in the emperor's heart.
Now, the emperor doesn't have to endure it anymore, and it just so happens that Runye wants to ask Jin Yuanjing for a favor, so the emperor doesn't care if he doesn't follow the previous regulations, and directly gives Chaoyunguan to someone who can obey the emperor's orders.
The people had nothing to say, and nothing to dare to say, they could only receive the emperor's order.
Of course, the envoys of the other states did not know what this meant, and they listened to what the emperor did and told the khan or the king after he went back.
Then let the Khan or the Great King make the decision.
Outside the palace gate, Runye and Jin Yuanjing didn't know what was happening inside.
They are still speculating about what the emperor is saying in the main hall now, and what treasures everyone has offered.
As he spoke, he began to get angry, and he said more and more things.
"I've heard that in the southern part of the country of South Vietnam, there are a lot of lightning strikes. There is thunder every day, and it lasts for a long time, so there are a lot of lightning strikes. Hey, if only I could have a lightning strike. β
Jin Yuanjing said with emotion, Runye heard it in his ears.
He remembered that his father had a set of magic weapons given by the emperor, but they were all destroyed by Zhu Hongyu. If those things weren't destroyed, they could still be given to Jin Yuanjing now.
Thinking of this, Runye felt a little helpless.
"In the past, I always thought that the emperor wanted to exterminate the Xuanmen in the world, but now I feel that the emperor is not like this, the emperor is courteous and does a good job. Now, although I don't know what the emperor's reward is, I am not afraid of this heart. Since you like lightning strike wood so much, why don't you go back to Ganzhou with me, and when you get to my temple, I will give you my master's set of lightning strike wood tokens, how about it? β
Hearing this, Jin Yuanjing stood up with a "poof".
"You mean really?"
