Chapter 403: Jia Daoren
The news that Wang Wei had broken through Wubao County, the capital of Nancheng, and plundered more than 2 million gold, 3 million stone military rations, and 450,000 people, soon spread to Yuanzhou.
Even if you give up Wubao County and evacuate directly, it is still an unimaginable victory!
After emptying people's treasury and abducting so many people, the total resources and population looted by the three forces on the border during this period combined were less than one-fifth of what was recovered.
Later, I got information that during the evacuation, Chu Wenxiu offered advice, Wang Wei successfully raided Loushan County, and Loushan County Taishou Wei Ji and Captain Feng Bing surrendered.
It can be said that it far exceeded expectations.
Wubao County is the enemy's imperial city, and it is surrounded by the army of Nancheng, so it can't be defended. Loushan County and Jiangzhou are close to each other, and the army can support at any time, and the imperial city of Nancheng was plundered and greatly injured, and it was guarded by the king, and it was basically stable.
As long as you stand firm, you can continue to move forward.
Write a secret letter and send it to Loushan County, asking Wang Wei to temporarily guard the city, promote civil and military officials on his own, recruit troops and horses to force training.
The husband and wife were celebrating in Yuanjun, and suddenly someone came to report that a person claiming to be Jia Daoren came to visit and asked to see Ning Ze by name.
This made Ning Ze and his wife full of doubts, no one had heard of this Jia Daoren, what was the situation?
"Since you don't know each other, just blast it away!" Mi Yan is more direct, why bother with a good family banquet?
Liu Yuanxiang shook his head: "People have come to visit, maybe there is something wrong! Since I want to see my husband, it is inconvenient for me and other female relatives to be here, so I will wait in the inner room first." ”
"Don't bother so much, go to the small table behind the screen and sit," Ning Ze said, "listen to what he has to say." ”
The wives turned to the screen and sat quietly.
Ning Ze asked his subordinates to invite Jia Daoren, and after a while, an old Taoist priest with a long beard and waist-length and sloppy clothes came in with a cane.
When Ning Ze looked at him, he was also looking at Ning Ze.
"Bold! I still don't salute when I see the prince!" the subordinate saw that he had no rules, and immediately shouted.
Only then did the old Taoist priest bow down and salute: "The people who turn into outsiders visit the king! The mountain people don't know the number of etiquette, please don't blame the king!"
I want to change the royal family and nobles of this world. When he met such an old Taoist priest who didn't know the number of etiquette, he must have been furious.
However, Ning Ze is a traverser, and he has received the ideological education of respecting the old and loving the young since he was a child, so he is relatively calm, and says to his subordinates: "You retreat first!"
"Whew!" the subordinate received the order, hurriedly bowed, and exited the house.
Ning Ze's gaze returned to the old Taoist priest and instantly saw his attributes.
【Religious leader】Jia Daoren, male, 88 years old
[Affiliation] Opposition [Loyalty] ——
[Stamina] 97 [Brawn] 86
[Intelligence] 89 [Politics] 54
[Command] 97 [Rende] 94
【Class】Xuandao Sect S
[Stunts] Medical Lv7, Virtue Lv7, Culture Lv8, Prestige Lv4, Eloquence Lv6, Agriculture Lv8
The attributes are quite amazing, which makes Ning Ze unbelievable.
In this war-torn era, the average life expectancy is very low, fifty or sixty years old is considered a long life, and this old way is 88 years old.
The most unbelievable thing is that at the age of 88, his hair and beard are black and thick, and he is well-maintained.
At this age, the physical strength is still 97 points, which is simply scary.
The force value is 86, the intelligence value is 89, the command value is 97, and the benevolence is 94, which is also amazing.
He actually marked the title of [Religious Leader], instead of the common generals and civilians, and the class was a unique Xuandao sect, and it was still the highest level of S.
The stunts are also very good, quite high medical skills, benevolence, culture, eloquence, etc.
Even at such an advanced age, it is also a rare attribute of a famous general.
Ning Ze couldn't help but be moved, so he asked, "Where does the Dao Chief come from?"
Jia Daoren replied: "Poor Dao is from Michigan!"
"Oh?" Hearing the word Mizhou, Ning Ze thought of Sima Fa, "What do you have to say?"
"The poor road has traveled a long way to come here, just for one thing!" Jia Daoren stretched out his hand and stroked his long beard, "Monks should not be involved in the affairs of red dust, but at the beginning of next month, it is the centennial parade celebration of my Xuanjiao, and the stakes are very high. On the border of King Chen Bing, it is very likely that a big war will break out with the two countries and destroy the Xuanjiao canon. Therefore, in the name of the current head of Xuanjiao, I implore the prince to withdraw from the army for the time being. ”
"Oh?" Ning Ze responded when he heard this, "Even if Lone orders to withdraw his troops, the other party may not launch an offensive." ”
"Poor Dao has some prestige in the Liang State, and he has persuaded Sima Dadu to agree, and asked both sides to retreat fifty miles each. ”
"What if Lone doesn't agree?" Ning Ze asked.
Jia Daoren sighed: "The parade celebration is the top priority of my Xuanjiao! Xuanjiao is not involved in world affairs and never intervenes in any conflict. It's just for the sake of the centennial ceremony, and I have no choice but to assist Liang Guo and defend the Tao with all my might!"
"Is this parade really that important?"
"Once in a hundred years, all the people of my Xuan Sect can defend the Tao with death!"
"That's ......," Ning Ze thought with his head down.
Religion is a troublesome existence, especially in this era, it is almost the spiritual sustenance of the people, and its influence is great.
At this time, religion was also very pure, except for a few crooked sects that would intervene in the power struggle, most orthodox sects were closed penances in the deep mountains and old forests.
He hadn't encountered such a situation before, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
After thinking for a while, he opened his mouth and asked, "Can the Dao Chief guarantee that Liang Guo will not take the opportunity to sneak attack?"
"Don't worry, the king!" Jia Daoren replied, "Governor Sima has already promised Poor Dao that if he goes back on his word and destroys the centennial ceremony of Xuanjiao, Poor Dao will definitely lead the sect to protect the Dao and stand on the king's side." ”
"Oh~ That is, you are neutral now, and you are not willing to help either side. But if any side tries to influence or even destroy your Centennial Ceremony, you will give up your neutrality and help one of them win the victory to ensure that the Ceremony can proceed smoothly?" Ning Ze asked.
Jia Daoren bowed slightly: "That's right, please fulfill the king!"
"Hmm~" Ning Ze pinched his chin and thought for a moment, then said to him, "If the other party agrees to retreat and does not break his word, Lone has no reason to object." ”
"Thank you, the king!" Jia Daoren bowed, "In this case, the poor road will retire!"
"Wait!" Ning Ze hurriedly stopped him, "Dao Chief, this is leaving?"
"The king has agreed, and both sides will retreat. The Xuanjiao Centennial Ceremony can be carried out smoothly, and of course Poor Dao must hurry back to prepare for major events. ”
"It's rare for the Taoist chief to come over, why don't you sit down and say a few words with Gu?" Ning Ze said, "Gu doesn't drink, there is still good tea." ”
"Since it was the king's invitation, it is better to obey the fate than to be respectful!" Jia Daoren was not polite, and returned to the table and sat down.
"Someone!" Ning Ze summoned the servants, first transferred the food on the table behind the screen, and re-served the table to entertain Jia Daoren. After setting it up, he asked in person, "Does the Taoist have taboos?"
"Your Majesty!" replied Jia Daoren, "there is no taboo in Xuanjiao. ”
"That's good!" Ning Ze said reassuringly, "Don't dislike coarse tea and light rice, please!"
"If these are coarse tea and light rice, what are the things that Poor Dao usually eats?" Jia Daoren responded with a smile.
"What does the Taoist usually eat?"
"Home-grown rice is cooked with wild vegetables, and porridge is eaten every day. ”
"That's why you live so long?" Ning Ze asked him curiously, "Do you usually exercise?"
"What is exercise?" Jia Daoren asked rhetorically.
"It's just practicing some kung fu to strengthen the body on weekdays. ”
"Oh~ I practice every day in the Xuanjiao Sect, and I never stop. ”
"It seems that the cultivation of the body is good! Nearly 90 years old, the hair is still dense, and the body is strong. Lone also wants to learn this kind of self-cultivation kung fu, is the Taoist willing to teach him?"
"The king has a heart, you can go to Daliang County, Mizhou on the first day of the next month, there is a high mountain in the east of the county, its name is Guye Peak, which is the place where my Xuanjiao rests. ”
"I'm afraid that as a lonely, it will be difficult to enter Mizhou!" Ning Ze said with a smile.
"Poor Dao can say hello to Governor Sima in advance, presumably Governor Poor Dao will sell Poor Dao a face, so that the king can cross the border smoothly. When the king arrives in Mizhou, my Xuanjiao can send someone to protect him, presumably Sima Dadu will not be untrustworthy, and it will be unfavorable to the king in the hands of my Xuanjiao. ”
"Sounds good!"
"If the king comes, he can also participate in the centennial ceremony of Xuanjiao and watch the ceremony in person. ”
"It's a bit interesting, it depends on the situation! If you really want to go over, you will be notified in advance when the time comes. ”
"Poor Dao waits!" Jia Daoren nodded slightly, and then asked, "The Great King just pointed out that the Poor Dao is nearly ninety, could it be that he has learned the art of physiognomy? I heard that the king has a strange magic, or does he use magic to divinate and come to this theory?"
Ning Ze responded with a smile: "It's not a magic technique, Gu did learn a little face-to-face technique, so I can see it." ”
"Poor Dao also practiced the art of face-to-face!"
"Really, why don't you show Lone?"
"The prince is a very popular minister, and his face is naturally unspeakably precious!" Jia Daoren said with a smile, "Poor Dao doesn't dare to get an axe." ”
"It's okay! Lone has never asked anyone to see his face. Try it today!"
Jia Daoren was a little puzzled: "Since the king has learned the art of face-to-face, has the preacher never met for you?"
When he was learning on his own, he was always taught face-to-face by the master as an example, so he thought it was strange.
Ning Zexin said that I would really meet each other, and I didn't have any master, I just used the functions of the system!
"The king really wants to meet you?"
"Just give it a try!" Ning Ze nodded.
Behind the screen, the wives all held their breath and listened curiously.
Jia Daoren leaned closer to Ning Ze, looked at his face carefully, and then said, "The king's heavenly court is full and the earth pavilion is round, which is a first-class face. Not only are you lucky, but you're also lucky. Moreover, he has a smart mind, a quick response to problems, and a noble person on the road to help him, and he can often turn danger into safety and turn danger into disaster. No matter what you do, you can achieve what you want, and your life will go smoothly! Your face is indescribably precious, and in the eyes of outsiders, you are a very popular minister, and you are already at the peak of the throne. But in fact, the position of emperor is at your fingertips, it's just whether you want it or not!"
When Ning Ze heard this, he asked with a smile, "Does the Daoist think I am willing or not?"
"If the king wants to be the emperor, he will not assist Princess Yuanxi. Jia Daoren laughed and said, "The emperor is dispensable for you. ”
"Hiss~" Ning Ze was a little surprised, and said that this was too accurate! After thinking about it again, he asked in a low voice, "What else does the Taoist see in Lone's face?"
He's so powerful, he can't really see that he's traversing, right?
The result is naturally to think more, and the so-called looks are all eyesight. Ning Ze is very famous, and the information about him from various forces is very detailed. The more information there is, the easier it is to say that the old way of looking at it.
