Chapter 284: Serious Monk
The speed at which the Splendid Palace fell was staggering, and the way the Queen Mother was defeated was so bizarre. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info those big figures in the Yan Imperial Court who had not come up with a way to get rid of the Queen Mother for so long had not come up with a way to get rid of the Queen Mother, and in this way, the stunned boy of An Zheng did it in a rampage. Did An Zheng have any subtle plans for overthrowing the Queen Mother? Of course not, even An Zheng himself could not refute it by mistake.
But Anzheng has indeed changed a country, and it is also rewriting a piece of history.
The Queen Mother Su Qingnuan died, and the old poison Zhuge Chouyun died, but the struggle was not over, it was just the beginning.
On the sixth day after Su Qingnuan's death, a group of courtiers led by Chen Zaiyan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, welcomed Ye Yun's mother and son into the Splendid Palace. All the courtiers were expected to be harmonious, and there was not the slightest obnoxious sound. The short period of time after the fall of the Splendid Palace was the honeymoon period for the Apocalypse Sect and those big families.
An Zheng was a little idle, and he turned down all the requests for office, including the ministers of the guards, including the general of the military department, and even the recommendation of a dumbfounded squire of the criminal department. The great merit of An Zheng can completely leave a strong mark on the history books of the Yan Kingdom, and those who are officials are unprecedentedly unified and constantly submit letters to ask An Zheng to be added to the official rank.
At the beginning it was definitely not hostility, but co-optation.
The power of the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect has grown stronger and stronger after this time, and countless people have rushed to defect, and the momentum has almost surpassed that of the Taishang Dojo for a while.
And the court was busy, and An Zheng sat in the small garden of the Apocalypse Sect in a daze with a person.
"Although there is no official succession yet, Xiao Qidao has already made four wills in a row in a decent manner. First, use a thousand miles to expedite an order to the Eastern Xinjiang Fang confidant general to stop the war against Youguo, and ask General Fang Zhizhi to consider it as appropriate, or stick to the land that has been obtained in Youguo, or return completely with the victory. Xiao Qidao gave Fang Zhizhi absolute rights, which is very good. Second, Aunt Ye is already the queen mother. Third, I will honor you as the king. The fourth letter is my first-class duke. ”
An Zheng peeled an orange and handed it to Mu Changyan, who was sitting on the recliner basking in the sun, the latter took the orange and stuffed it into his mouth with a somewhat mechanical stiffness, the juice flowed down the corners of his mouth, and he smirked: "Sweet." ”
An Zheng wiped the corners of Mu Changyan's mouth with a handkerchief: "Later, many things became clear, the fundamental reason why you couldn't open the Mu family's national protection array was actually Zhuge Chouyun. He destroyed the power of your bloodline with poison, how could you open that big array? The Mu family's country is still the Mu family's, but Xiao Qidao's current situation is slightly more stable than when you succeeded to the throne. ”
Mu Changyan opened his mouth: "It's still ...... Also eat. ”
An Zheng peeled another orange for Mu Changyan: "Xiao Liu'er said, the poison in your body is nothing, the silver needle has also been taken out, and the Gu worm has also been sucked out and eaten by her golden silkworm, but it hurts your brain." Whether you can recover in the future depends on your willpower. Nie Qing is better than you, because his telekinesis is stronger than yours, and his will is firmer than yours, and when we found him, he had already killed a lot of those Gu worms on his own. ”
"Originally, those people were going to kill Nie Qing, although Nie Qing was also a victim, but you were controlled by Nie Qing. I asked Nie Qing where he wanted to go, and he said Dongjiang. Even if General Fang Zhiji withdraws his troops, he will inevitably have to withdraw extremely hard, so he wants to go to the battlefield, even if he dies, he will die on the battlefield. ”
An Zheng handed the orange to Mu Changyan: "You just raise it well in the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect, in fact, you have done well enough." I think if your eldest brother is still alive, he will be proud of you. ”
Hearing the word eldest brother, Mu Changyan's eyes lit up: "Big brother......"
He laboriously stuffed the oranges An Zheng handed him into his clothes, and the juice was all over his body.
"Why don't you eat it?"
"Keep it...... To Big Brother. ”
An Zheng's heart was sour, and he pointed to him: "There are a lot more, you can eat it, and I'll peel it for you after eating." Keep it for your eldest brother, and there will be no less. ”
Mu Changyan shook his head: "To the eldest brother." ”
His hands weren't very controlled, and he couldn't handle them well, and the oranges were already broken when they were stuffed in. But he was satisfied, and his eyes were full of light.
Ann stood up and commanded that he should be taken care of.
He walked out to prepare to go to the Martial Academy, and now the only position left on An Zheng's body is the dean of the Martial Academy. Chang Huan is gone, and Huo Tangtang has not yet recovered from that disaster. Although the Martial Academy is gradually gaining some vitality now, it is still not as prosperous as it used to be. Now even Du Slender Qu Liuxi and Gu Qianye are the teachings of the Martial Academy, but they are full of vitality.
An Chengli, the chief eunuch of Tianji Palace, took a carriage to the outside of the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect, and when he saw An Zheng coming out of it, he hurriedly got out of the car and saluted: "The slave has seen the grandfather." ”
An Zheng grabbed it: "Don't talk nonsense, why are you here?"
An Chengli smiled and said: "It was the king who asked the slave and maid to come, and he urged the slave and maid several times, but it is not possible to be a little slower." The day after tomorrow is the ceremony of the king's succession, and the king asked the slave to come over to inform the grandfather, don't forget. The king said, "If you are not there, his heart is not steady." ”
An argued: "How could I forget. ”
An Chengli said: "Where is Grandpa going?
An Zheng nodded.
An Chengli sighed: "You don't sit in so many important seats, but you just leave a position as the dean of the martial arts academy." At this time, if you occupy one more seat, you will occupy one more seat, otherwise you will not be robbed by those people. The more people we can talk to in the court, the more they dare not be presumptuous, at least on the surface. ”
An Zheng: "You're right, but I'd better stay outside." If I am an official in the court, how can I fight people who are not pleasing to the eye and see things that are not pleasing to the eye? You don't want to think about it, my Tianqi Sect now has 1,800 people, and if I hold the power in the court again, it will not be a good thing. If I make a mistake, the little seven ...... Will the king punish me? If not, then the royal power is not heavy, and the laws of the country are not clear. Those people will think of Fa'er to give me a script, and the king will not bother me. I am in the rivers and lakes, and I am much better than I am in the court. ”
An Chengli said: "This is indeed the truth...... By the way, the rest of the personnel did not encounter any obstacles. The king abolished the previous two-prime minister system, and Chen Zaiyan was the only prime minister. Tan Tai Che is the secretary of the criminal department, Wang Kaitai is the secretary of the military department, Gu Chao is also a university scholar, supervising the imperial history, and he snatched another household servant from those people. It's only temporary, but it's going to get better in the future. ”
An Zheng said: "In this way, it will be practical, the war is over, rest and recuperate, as long as there are no accidents, everyone will live peacefully." ”
An Chengli: "There is one thing that is very dangerous...... Before the death of the Queen Mother, she had negotiated an agreement with the tribes on the grassland, and although it was not finally signed, these grassland barbarians still used this as an excuse to send us a letter of state. They said that the Queen Mother promised to give them Yanshan Iron Mine, and they exchanged 50,000 war horses for it. It seems that there is a lot of coercion, if we don't let the Yanshan iron mine out, they will raise troops to go south. ”
An Zheng: "There is Yanmen Pass, don't worry about this." In this way, please General Fang Daozhi inspect Yanmen Pass and show our attitude. Not to mention 50,000 war horses, even 500,000 war horses and iron ore can't be given to them. Once the grassland people have iron ore, they will be like an evil dragon flying into the sky, and not only the Yan Kingdom, but the entire Central Plains will suffer disasters at that time. The grassland is so big that it is not much better than Daxi. ”
An Chengli said: "When I go back, I will tell the king that the slave and maid will retire first." ”
An argued: "You go, take care of the king for me." ”
An Chengli: "Yes, now I am happy and open to doing things, and my hands and feet are much sharper." ”
An Zheng laughed, and when he turned around to go to the martial arts courtyard, he saw a young monk wearing a snow-white monk's robe standing at the corner of the street.
On that day in the Splendid Palace, if it weren't for the help of this monk, they wouldn't have succeeded. Mu Qidao didn't forget the benefits of this monk, and sent someone to find him and ask him what reward he wanted. The monk said that he wanted to build a temple on one acre of land. It's definitely not an over-the-top request, so it's right away.
"Master. ”
An Zheng walked over and bowed.
The monk shook his head: "Just call me a monk of Xuanting, and besides, you are now a prince of the country, how dare I accept your courtesy." ”
An Zheng said with a smile: "The Buddha Sect says that all beings are equal. ”
The monk said, "Since we are equal, why be polite?"
An Zheng: "I can't say you, the master has something to do with me?"
The monk said, "You have demons in you. ”
An Zheng was stunned, and subconsciously looked at the blood bead bracelet on his wrist.
The monk smiled: "But I've seen it, and it won't affect you for the time being, and it's not a bad thing." It's just that the demon is around, and that side is affected by it. As long as you are calm and strong, you will not be taken advantage of by demons. ”
An Zheng thought of Chen Shaobai and his father, Chen Shaobai didn't show up to help this time, and he didn't know if there was something wrong on the Cangman Mountain.
The monk said, "Man is stronger than demons, and demons are not terrible." It's not good that you have more things to do and less practice. If you'd ...... will?"
An Zheng shook his head: "I don't want to." ”
The monk was slightly stunned: "How do you know what I'm going to say." ”
An Zheng smiled: "I don't want to shave my head, I don't want to drink and eat meat, I don't want to marry a wife and not have children, and I don't want to be able to brag when I drink too much." ”
He said: "Just thinking about it, I feel very uncomfortable. ”
The monk sighed: "If you are willing to enter the Buddha's door, you are Vajra." ”
An Zheng: "I can't enter the Buddha Gate, I can do good deeds, why should the master be so persistent." ”
Monk: "Don't think about it again?"
An Zheng: "If the master is willing to accompany me to drink wine and eat meat in the future, I can consider it." ”
The monk was silent for a while, and then nodded seriously: "If you can enter the Buddha Gate, I promise you." ”
An Zheng dodged back: "Why don't you play cards according to common sense? Forget it, when I didn't say ......"
The monk shook his head: "Where are you going?"
"Martial Academy, see my master. ”
"Your master?"
"Hmm. ”
The woman named Huo Tangtang appeared in An Zheng's mind, no matter what, she was her disciple. Even if An Zheng is now a first-class protector, the dean of the Martial Academy, and the sect master of the Apocalypse Sect, he is still a disciple of Huo Tangtang. In the words of Du Shousian, he is a teacher for one day and a mother for life.
The monk said, "I want an acre of land and plan to build a temple." For Buddhism, this place is still a desert. By the way, there's something I haven't told you, and you haven't asked me, so I forgot about it...... In the Splendid Palace, do you know why I helped you?"
"I don't know. ”
"Because of one person, her name is Xu Meidai......"
An Zheng's face changed, and he smiled bitterly.
The monk said: "She is now in the Buddha Kingdom of the Western Regions, and it just so happened that I was going to meet me halfway through my trip to the Jinding Kingdom, and she asked me to come to Yan Kingdom to see you." When I saw that no one believed in Buddhism here, I felt terrified, so I decided to stay. But if you want to build a temple, you can't do without mundane things, that is, silver. ”
An Zheng: "I'll come out." ”
The monk shook his head: "No, I earned it myself." ”
"Huh?"
"Have you forgotten that I received the silver from the Splendid Palace......? The monk deceived people for the first time, but the money to build the temple was enough. ”
An Zheng: "I don't think you have any remorse. ”
Monk: "Why regret it?"
"Isn't it true that a monk can't deceive people, there are gods in his head, and the Buddha will see it. ”
"He looks at me, I don't look at him. ”
The monk turned around and left: "Everyone pretends not to know, and the Buddha is not stupid......"
An Zheng sighed: "You don't look like a serious monk either. ”
