Chapter 301: Manichaeism

After sending Li Yi to the bottom of the steps and being carried by the palace people to the sedan chair and walking away, Li Mao still stood there thinking about something, completely forgetting that there were dozens of civil and military ministers standing and waiting in the main hall, until Gao Lishi ran to his side and whispered a reminder, Li Mao came back to his senses and asked him, "What is the situation in the east side now!" The news from the black guard said that Qingfeng had not appeared in Lin'an City for more than a month, and the local clan nobles were constantly buying farm tools and plowing cattle, and even hundreds of thousands of men, women, and children were gathered by them...... Boss Gao, your internal service province is not like the black guard, you can't go deep into the grassroots, you should know more about what happened! ”

"This ...... This old slave originally wanted to wait for the next dynasty to report to the sage, last night Jin Wuwei just received the news from the dolls in eastern Zhejiang, although I don't know whether it is true or false, but the old slave also felt strange, they defeated General Zhang Xiao in Panyang Lake, they did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but built a strong fortification on the spot for defense, in addition to Li Heng's palace transported a large amount of gold and silver for his subordinates, as if in Fuzhou, Linhai was very anxious to build a warship, those people were digging day and night in the mountains and dense forests, A number of sergeants were involved, and one of the dolls was more clever and noticed that they seemed to be cultivating acres of land surrounded by mountains......"

Hearing that Li Heng and Qi Qingfeng were actually cultivating fields in such a treacherous terrain as Zhejiang and Fujian, Li Mao couldn't help laughing out loud in an instant, but after thinking about it, he immediately showed a little anger on his face, "Damn, it must be Wang Siluo's big mouth that leaked what I said before......" "Sage, you said it was Wang Guifei?" What did she leak? Gao Lishi asked casually in curiosity, but after thinking about it, he knew that he had lost his words, so he immediately slapped himself lightly and continued to speak, "Sage, the old slave has too many mouths, too many mouths......

"It doesn't matter if you don't talk much, but now after he urges Qingfeng to do this, he really makes me a little embarrassed, they have both money and effort to help us build the land of fishing and rice in the south of the Yangtze River, if we still have a large army to press the border, it seems to be a little too unkind, but they actually have the courage to face the encirclement of hundreds of thousands of troops and concentrate on production, so there must be a complete plan, where will Qingfeng die? It stands to reason that he, as the chief designer of the construction of the Jiangnan Water Town, is not enough to stare at day and night at this time? What should you do in the face of such a situation? ”

"Old slave? The old slave will serve the saint and your subordinates, how can you know about these national affairs, saint, don't embarrass the old slave, or let's go back to the main hall first to tell the matter and discuss it with the ministers, one person counts the short, and the three count the long, maybe you can immediately guess what the urging child is doing. ”

"Counsel with them? Hehe...... I'm afraid that the strategy that we have just made on the front foot, and there is superstition on Li Heng's desk on the back foot, I still believe in you Lao Gao, because you Lao Gao is the person who knows the most about current affairs in Chang'an City, let's talk about it, don't hide it, the army is surrounded in the poor countryside, this seeing that the food and grass are not enough, I don't want to train the army to break through, or go to find some grain and grass, but I am willing to plant it myself, what do you say he is relying on to urge Qingfeng! Is his brain flooded, or is he sure that I don't dare to increase my troops to attack!! ”

After all, Chang'an is thousands of miles away from Lin'an, Jiangnan, if the imperial court sends an additional army to encircle and suppress, not to mention the protracted time, the many affairs involved will make the imperial court hurt the muscles and bones and lose more than the loss, but if the two sides have been deadlocked, it will be beneficial to the imperial court, which thinks he Cui family will not understand, the only thing he can do at the moment is to use the kindness of the abolished prince and the emperor to lobby around for a strong helper...... Only in this way can the provinces of eastern Zhejiang Province recuperate and spare some time to ......"

After listening to Gao Lishi's speculation, Li Mao also patted him on the shoulder in agreement, then nodded, and said, "Lao Gao, your analysis is good, but where is this powerful backup?" Looking at it, it seems that in addition to the 100,000 veterans of Jiannan Dao Gao Xianzhi in his hands, he urged Qingfeng to seem to be able to find other places, okay, you hurry back to the main hall and let them all disperse, I want to take a good walk around this Daming Palace alone......" Gao Lishi looked up at Li Mao, and then quickly responded and turned around and returned to the main hall.

And after Li Mao walked down the steps, a few black guards and cold-blooded immediately followed from afar, Li Mao watched while walking, recalling the scene when he first walked into Daming Palace a few years ago, and he dared to look at it instantly, what he thought was just to live a happy life in this flowery Tang Dynasty, but it backfired, and he still climbed onto this upsetting throne in the past few years.

"Oh my God! Aren't you playing a big joke with me, Li Mao? How can I ...... it" Li Mao looked up to the sky and finished a few words, as if the troubles in his heart were instantly reduced, and when he walked to the gate of Daming Palace, he finally couldn't help but rush up, "Sage, you don't want to go out of the palace like this!" Why don't we go back and change into cheap walking clothes? "Don't bother, let the guard who is similar to my stature take off his clothes and change them for me, speaking of which, I haven't been hanging out for a long time, by the way, you all have to change with them, today our master and servant will come to be the last Ouchi guard......" "Oh!"

Although cold-blooded a little bit didn't understand why Li Mao did that, he has always been cool and doesn't talk much, and this is one of the reasons why Li Mao left him in the palace as a commander, so under the cold-blooded order, a strange change of clothes was immediately staged at the door of Daming Palace, and dozens of forbidden positions were stripped of only a seat of cloth clothes standing in the wind and shivering, and Li Mao, the emperor, after giving each of them a compliment, rushed away like a fleeing thief, and when the ministers of the scattered dynasty saw the virtues of the guards today, One by one, they were furious, but no matter how they asked, the leader of the Praetorian Guard, who was on errand, didn't say anything until Gao Lishi came when he heard the news.

However, Gao Lishi and the ministers calmed down, and immediately figured out the reason, but these guys who have become fine are also pretending to be stupid and don't say much, but Li Linfu, who is the chief of the house, showed a trace of worry on his face, and quietly pulled Gao Lishi aside and whispered, "Manager Gao, you have to get an idea about this matter quickly!" If this saint leaves the palace in micro-clothes, he can't help it if he provokes forbearance on the street! In case ......"

"Li Xiang, our family wants to invite the saint back immediately! But you know the saint's temperament well, if we go, not only will we not come back, but we will probably be punished! At present, the only way can only be for our family to immediately go to find the noble Qiuxiang, and she is the only one who can do this in the entire palace......"

"Yes, yes, why didn't you think of this stubble? Then there is Rao Gao in charge of your suffering, and after the prime minister goes out, you have to quickly inform Lord Wang of Jingzhao Mansion, with him accompanying you, maybe there will be no big incidents, but the Manichaeism of your Fan clan in the city has been a bit too much recently, so I'm afraid of ......" "What?" Lord Li, haven't you suppressed this matter yet? "Mr. Gao is dissatisfied with you and said that this thing is not easy to do! Even Lord Wangcai is also a big man, you must know that there are three religions and nine streams in Fanfang, and dragons and snakes are mixed, which can be said to be another world in Chang'an City......"

After hearing Li Linfu say this, Gao Lishi also nodded with deep feeling in an instant, thinking that he had also heard about the things in this workshop at the beginning, what Tubo, Turkic, Goguryeo, and even black-clothed food, Persia...... and so on, the robbers who kill people and cause more trouble are all concentrated in it, and even the most capable bad people are usually difficult to set foot in half a step...... I heard that as long as you have enough money, you can do anything except the stars and the moon in the sky!

As for what kind of Manichaeism Li Linfu is talking about now, although Gao Lishi knows very little, the Ministry of Internal Affairs in charge of him is also concerned about these, and this unprecedented Manichaeism actually flowed into the Tang Dynasty as early as the Tang Gaozong period. Manichaeism may have been introduced to China during the Tang Gaozong dynasty. Wu Zetian extended the first year of the Persian people to China. In the seventh year of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, the Emperor of Tocharian China Khan put on credit to the table, dedicated to the astronomical great Mushe, please put the Dharma Hall.

However, because this religion is very easy to deceive people's hearts, up to the dignitaries and dignitaries, down to the poor people, all of them flock to her, so during the reign of Li Longji, it was strictly forbidden, but in addition to the Tang Dynasty people, the Fan clan can continue to believe, and it is also based on this that Manichaeism has developed rapidly from light to dark, and the sect has grown stronger, especially in the area around Chang'an. -->
