Chapter 193: Learning God

Putting aside what happened in the demon world for the time being, his eyes focused on Tamamo and the wine-swallowing boy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

That day, after the wine swallowing boy and Tamamo discussed, it was originally planned that Tamamo would go to Alice Villa in Shinjuku, Tokyo, first, and then let Tamamo use magic to wipe out the matter between Jian Yi and Jian Zi. Then the wine-swallowing boy took advantage of the weakness to enter and seize Jian Zi's heart.

However, an accident happened along the way.

That is, on the way, he was stopped by Guan Yuan Daozhen. In the words of Michima Kanhara, this is what it looks like:

"When you and the others broke the seal, this seat had already paid attention to you and the others. Entrusted by Amaterasu-sama, this seat protects Tsuchi-sama and others in secret. ”

"In this way, your intentions have long been clear, and I hereby advise the two of you to dispel this idea as soon as possible, otherwise, this seat will not easily forgive you and others."

Because of the huge disparity in strength between the two sides, Tamamo and the wine-swallowing boy looked at each other and then could only retreat temporarily to make plans for the future.

Speaking of Guan Yuan Daozhen, I have to mention the identity of this god here.

Sugawara Michizane is also known as "Suga". He was a sinologist, poet, and singer in the middle of the Heian period in Japan.

At that time, Emperor Uta decided to strengthen his royal power with the Confucian idea of loyalty to the monarch in order to counter the growing power of the regent Fujigenji, and at this time, he encountered the "Ah Heng Dispute" caused by the drafting of the edict by the minister Tachibana Hirosang, and the minister Fujiwara Kitsune and his henchmen.

While the various scribes in the court were arguing endlessly, and Kitsura did not let go of the prime minister, Michizane Shihei, who was in charge of the Sangi Shou at the time, explained the dispute in detail and was able to settle it.

At this time, Emperor Uta's literary prowess and excellent Sinology were favored by Emperor Uta, and after the death of Fujiwara Kitsune, Michizane was promoted to the head of Tibet, and later promoted to a formal member of the imperial government from the four lower senators. Later, Emperor Uta also accepted Michizane's daughter into the palace as a female queen, and it was not until the second year of Shotai that he was promoted to the right minister.

This is the highest-ranking official position held by a courtier from a literati background since Kibi Shinbei. At this time, the Tao can really be said to be in the heyday of the Holy Family.

However, the good times did not last long, and Emperor Uta, who was accustomed to living a peaceful life for a few years, was able to govern himself with the assistance of Michizane and other capable ministers. But soon these old ministers died before they declined, and the power of the court fell into the hands of the Fujiwara clan.

At this time, the leader of the Fujiwara clan was Fujiwara Kikyo, the small-minded son Fujiwara Tokihei. Emperor Uta was frightened by the Fujiwara clan's return to power, so he immediately relinquished the throne to Prince Atsuhito, who succeeded him as Emperor Daigo.

In addition to being busy with government affairs, Michizane spent his spare time sorting out the poetry and articles of the Sugawara family from his grandfather to three generations of his family. I didn't notice at all that Fujiwara Tokihei, who was already the left minister at this time, was starting to operate the conspiracy.

In the first year of Enki, Fujiwara Tokihei mobilized other courtiers in the court who were enemies of Michizane to secretly slander the young Emperor Daigo, accusing Michizane of intentionally rebelling against Emperor Daigo, and conspiring with Emperor Uta to support Prince Saiyo, the younger brother of Emperor Daigo, as the new emperor.

The young Daigo couldn't stand this fright, and immediately let Shi Ping take charge of Daozhen's disposal. Michizane, who fell on the frieze, didn't know what kind of crime he had committed, so he was raided by the forbidden army overnight, demoted to Dazai, and exiled to Dazaifu in Kyushu. None of the Sugawara family were allowed to follow, and they were forcibly exiled from Heiankyo and left to starve to death.

Emperor Uta did not learn of his exile until five days after the incident, and just as he hurried to ask Emperor Daigo and arrived at the palace gate of the forbidden area, Fujiwara Sugane, who was in charge of entering and exiting the forbidden area, led the forbidden army to block the palace gate under the false decree of the Holy Decree.

Exiled to Dazaifu in Kyushu, Michizane never understood what kind of great crime he had committed to this fate, and he was exiled to this distant foreign land, while his family was scattered and did not know his whereabouts.

The old man, who was nearly sixty, could not withstand such torture and blows, and died in despair in Dazaifu at the age of fifty-nine.

Daozhen's body was transported to the burial by an ox cart, and the ox cart couldn't move halfway through. Strange, the local officials and people of Dazaifu buried Michizane's body where the ox cart stopped.

After Michizane's death, Heiankyo began a series of visions. Solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, comets, earthquakes, thunderstorms, droughts, heavy rains, fires, epidemics, and other major miracles and disasters have erupted one after another.

In particular, the people of the world think that this sudden and continuous thunder is a sign of Dao Zhen's manifestation and return to Beijing for revenge. Everyone said that Michizane, who died in anger at Dazaifu in Kyushu, was enshrined by the gods and became the god of thunder, and he shone thunder everywhere for the injustices of the world. Shi Ping, who heard this rumor, didn't care at the time, and waited until a series of strange things happened to slowly feel that nameless fear.

One day, during the court discussion, a sudden lightning bolt struck the roof of the Qingryō Palace, which frightened Emperor Daigo and other ministers, and many courtiers at that time screamed miserably on the spot: "Michizane is back!" "Dao Zhen has come to take revenge! ”。

Shi Ping was also present at the time, he pulled out his sword and pointed at the outside of the hall and shouted: "You were not as good as me when you were alive, and you dare to come here to find trouble with me?" After Shi Ping finished speaking, the thunder slowly disappeared.

Although Shihei mustered up the courage to drink back the thunder at that time, there was still heavy thunder in Heiankyo, which finally made Shihei unable to stand this fear and fell ill. At this time, Fujiwara Sugane, who had betrayed his mentor and led the forbidden army to block the palace gate, suddenly died of illness for no reason. After Sugane's death, Shihei realized that he was the next target of Michizane's revenge, and his illness became even more serious.

The son of the courtier Sanzen Kiyoyuki, the monk of the Tiantai sect, Jozo, was instructed to pray for the blessing of Shihei. When he had just arrived at Shihei's mansion to start the ceremony, Shihei, who was already seriously ill to the point of fainting, suddenly flew out of his ears and said to Jingzang: "This seat was ordered by Amaterasu-sama to come to seek the life of the enemy, and your life-prolonging ritual is useless!" Hurry up and leave this seat! ”。

Realizing that these two green dragons were the embodiment of Dao Zhen's resentment, Jozo immediately withdrew from Shihei's mansion. At this time, the thunder in the sky began to roar loudly, and the thunder also flew in all directions, and after a while, the news that Shihei was dead came out of Shihei's mansion. At that time, there were many people in Heiankyo, and at this time when Shi Ping died, he saw that in the clouds accompanied by thunder and flashes, Dao Zhen, who turned into a thunder god, grabbed Shi Ping and stepped on the thunder fire to ascend to the sky. Dao Zhen was also followed by many alien monsters that people had never seen before and many little thunder gods.

Just when everyone thought that Dozhen's revenge was over, there was another incident of Genmitsu, who succeeded him as the right minister when Michizane was exiled, and fell into the swamp and suffocated to death on the way to hunting. Before Genguang's violent death, he was already very concerned about taking over his position after Michizane was exiled, and always thought that after the death of Fujiwara Sugane and Fujiwara Tokihei, he would be himself next, so he didn't know that he had asked the mage to hold a life extension ritual in his house several times, but he still couldn't escape the fate of falling into the swamp and disappearing without a trace.

In addition to these three people, several courtiers who participated in the conspiracy also suffered tragic disasters, either being struck by lightning while traveling, or dying of violent illness for no reason. However, as time passed, people at the time believed that the true revenge of the Tao should have stopped. But just ten years after the commotion subsided, Daozhen's revenge suddenly appeared.

In the twenty-third year of Enki, Fujiwara Tokihei's sister was the son of Emperor Daigo - Prince Homei; He was also the successor of the emperor who was supported by Shi Ping during his lifetime, and died suddenly for no reason, and he was only twenty-one years old when he died. And the sky is full of thunder, and the people think that this is the best proof that the soul of Daozhen has come back again.

At this time, the imperial court had already understood the seriousness of the situation. In order to suppress the resentful spirits of Michizane, a grand "Great Purification" was held in front of the Jianli Gate in the forbidden area in April of the same year, and at the same time, the edict of reinstatement of the right minister of Dozhen and the edict of the abolition of the exile order of Michizane were read at the same time. In other words, in this way, he can clear his true grievances and hope that his grievances can be calmed.

In May, the era name "Yanxi" was officially discontinued, and the yuan was changed to "Yanchang". Take its meaning that due to the renewal of the era name, the weather of the government and the opposition is new, and the evil worship is far away. And because the first year of Yanxi was the year when Daozhen was exiled, in order to show the sincerity of the court's willingness to repent, the name "Yanxi" was stopped.

However, it seems that the anger of the Tao Zhen has not gone away because of this. Extended for three years, Prince Baoming's widowed son King Qinglai died at the age of five. At this point, Prince Homei's lineage was officially severed, and Fujiwara Tokihei's desire to succeed to the throne as his maternal ancestor after Prince Hoaki and King Keirai succeeded to the throne was completely destroyed. Emperor Daigo began to get sick after being hit by this, and his health deteriorated day by day. However, it was only then that Daozhen's greater revenge became apparent.

On June 26, the eighth year of the extension, the Qingliang Hall in the forbidden area was holding a routine court meeting, and the weather was good, and the sky was clear and cloudless. At this time, a thunderbolt suddenly shot out from the sky and silently slashed into the Qingliang Palace, and the flying thunder light split the Great Nayan Fujiwara Kiyokan and the right middle Benpei Kiyoshi into two black-scorched dead corpses on the spot. At the same time, another lightning bolt shot into the Zichen Palace, burning the three courtiers in office.

Many of the courtiers who survived the scene either went mad or became demented, and Emperor Daigo, who was present at the time, also witnessed the whole tragedy. That night, Emperor Daigo began to have a fever and a constant cough. Although the fever subsided under the treatment of the imperial doctor, Daigo's cough did not improve. The illness dragged on until September of the same year, and finally died weakly on the imperial couch.

When Michizane appeared in front of the Venerable Master, he claimed that in fact, in the fifth year of Enki, when the Michizane Shrine in Dazaifu in Kyushu was completed, he wrote a book to worship Michizane Kanhara in the name of the god "Tenman Great Freedom Tenjin".

Later, in the 19th year of Enki, the imperial court funded and appointed Fujiwara Nakahei as the supervisor, and officially rebuilt the temple of the Doshin Temple into the main hall of the god of the gods, becoming the original Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine.

In the fifth year of Tenkei, during the reign of Emperor Suzaku, Michizane suddenly asked a woman who lived in the seven main streets of the western part of the city, Tajibifumiko, to tell the imperial court at that time to build a shrine in the area of Kitano's right near the horse farm to be worshipped.

However, due to the humility of his status, Wenzi could not reach the court at that time, so he had to build a small ancestral hall in his house to worship Daozhen. It wasn't until the ninth year of Tenkei that Michizane reappeared in people's dreams and asked for the establishment of a shrine in the right near racecourse, and this time it was Taro Maru, the son of Miwa Ryoji, a priest of Omi Ira Palace, who was entrusted with the dream. The good breed found the previous dream of Fumiko to join forces, and gathered the funds and strength of the people to build a shrine near the right horse farm to worship Daozhen.

Strange to say, measles chickenpox, which has been rampant in the Keoro area for several years, subsided after the establishment of the Doshin Shrine near the right horse farm. Fujiwara Shisuke, who learned of this, donated a large amount of money and manpower in the name of the Fujiwara family and began to expand the Kitano Shrine, which originally had only a shrine grid, as Kitano Tenmangu Shrine. After the completion of Kitano Tenmangu Shrine, Shisuke was enshrined on time by Michizane as the patron saint of the Seki family.

Hawkers,Actually, the irony is that it's really none other than Shifu's uncle Fujiwara Tokihei.。 This kind of change made the people at that time feel that the Fujiwara family, who held the power in the present world, finally had to bow to the Daozhen resentful spirit, which made the supreme power of the Daozhen resentful spirit planted in the hearts of the people.

After the completion of the Kitano Tenman Palace, nearly 50 years passed, and in the fourth year of the Emperor's official calendar, because of the rampant epidemic, I was afraid that this would be the work of Daozhen's resentment and officially posthumously crowned Daozhen as a left minister. However, it was immediately reported that the dream of the true trust did not accept this posthumous gift. The court that was shocked when he heard the words urgently discussed, and this time the horse's fart slapped on the horse's feet and made several important ministers disgraced.

In June of that year, the Qingliang Temple was severely damaged by a nameless fire, and there were thunderbolts in the sky. As a result of the final deliberations, he simply posthumously presented Daozhen as the Minister of Imperial Affairs, and officially issued an edict in the tenth month of that year. This time, after divination, I finally got the answer that Michizane agreed.

Finally, in the first year of Kanhiro, Emperor Ichijo made a sacrifice at Kitano Tenmangu Palace. After a long period of a hundred years, the resentment of Daozhen was finally quelled. After that, I didn't hear anything about the truth.

Today, Michizane Kanhara has risen from the spirit of exile to a god of learning, and has become an academic researcher.

That is, the later god of learning, and it was canonized by Amaterasu Lori himself. (To be continued.) )
