Chapter 270: The Punishment of the Great Yin Dynasty
The old cow persuaded each other with death, but failed to attract the attention of the family who relocated to the land, but in regret and self-blame, the old beef body was sold, and his family didn't even leave it at all, and the money he bought was exchanged for some food, but it was indeed let them withstand a period of time.
Witnessing the calamity of a state land, strong sorrow and pity, so that this wisp of remnant soul had an accident, the soul of a state of tragic death, as if being guided, towards the remnant soul of the old scalper, they with the pain and unwillingness of the tragic death, with a strong prayer to the old cow remnant soul.
Between the unconscious, the obsession of the remnant soul of the old scalper established a connection with these dead souls, and the unconscious army of dead souls instinctively worshipped this remnant soul who had mercy on them and gave them warmth, and voluntarily became a part of him, so that after five years of catastrophe and the tragic death of millions of people, a new god was born.
After completely absorbing and refining these souls who voluntarily believed in him, the old scalper inadvertently stole the divine power, like an instinct, the clouds and rain, the four seasons turned with his thoughts, he was an old ox during his lifetime, and he was naturally very familiar with the farming season, when it rained, how much rain, are all in his instinct.
Since then, there is no drought or flood in Tianniu Prefecture, the people worship their bodies, but they do not know that their body is an old ox, so they take the image of the god of Mangshen who controls the four seasons, erect a temple for it, and the incense is at its peak for a while, and then it is also because the court is aware of the abnormality of this matter, and the wind of worshipping the god of Mangshen in this day is slightly suppressed.
A lot of temples have been abandoned, but there are still a lot of temples that exist on the land of Tianniu Prefecture, and the imperial court is also turning a blind eye to this, Tianniu Prefecture has since become the granary of the entire Dayin Dynasty, and the big scalper is indispensable, and what the court can do is to limit its authority on the one hand, and rely on its authority on the other.
Everyone has been stable for too long, the current life is the best, no one wants to have any twists and turns, and it is not that there have been officials who want to cut down mountains and break temples before, after all, this kind of thing is not allowed by the imperial court, and it is also not allowed by the world, and it is a hidden danger to keep it after all.
But they all ended up without a problem, not to mention the mighty public opinion, they couldn't withstand it, not to mention that if it was really because of the destruction of the mountain and the temple, after the loss of Mangshen, Tianniu Prefecture experienced the disaster again, and one of these officials could not run, under such a strange balance, this situation lasted for more than a hundred years.
After Weng Rui finished speaking, the Huangfu here just finished eating, don't look at his slow eating, but the speed is not slow at all, and I don't know how he blended these two completely different effects together, the table was originally full of a large table of dishes, and now just this 'story' has all entered his belly.
He took the clean handkerchief from the maid's hand, wiped her mouth with her sleeve, and then wiped her sleeve with a handkerchief.
Weng Rui raised his eyebrows, a little uncomfortable for a while, but he didn't dare to speak.
"After listening to the story, I also understood it, that is, you are not easy to handle, and no one can bear this responsibility, so I have been dragging it out, okay, since I am here, then leave this dirty work to me, who let me do this in the first place? Anyway, I'll leave when I'm done. ”
Weng Rui didn't answer, and stood with a solemn face.
"By the way, can you make an appointment with it? It's that cow, for so many years, you worship it as a god of mang, it's afraid it has changed a long time ago, and it shouldn't be the same old cow as before, if you can, ask him out to meet, and solve things without using swords, that's the best. ”
Weng Rui's face was a little embarrassed, "I'm afraid I can't make an appointment, since fifty years ago, Mangshen has stopped responding to our calls, it seems that it is just following its own ideas and plans, and it does not mix with anything in the outside world, and it will not respond to anyone's calls and prayers." ”
"Even so, the lower officials are willing to give it a try, and the envoy please wait."
Huangfu waved his hand, "Go, go, I'll wait for you here." ”
Weng Rui nodded, bowed and left, this day Niuzhou Mansion can also be invited to see it, there is no need to go to the temple, a invitation to the gods, a text, stamped with the big seal of the lord of the Tianniu Prefecture Mansion, a wisp of green smoke floated out, wrapped in a faint bright yellow breath, curling up, disappearing into the sky.
Time passed minute by minute, until a full quarter of an hour later, Weng Rui still did not get the slightest response, just like back then, in fact, over the years, it was not only Weng Rui who had done similar things, but he had not been able to get a response, as if Tianniu Prefecture had lost this 'Mangshen'.
He retreated thoughtfully into the hall, and as soon as he appeared in the hall, Huangfu Zheng stretched his waist.
"No response, did you?"
"Yes, the Ambassador."
Huangfu waved his hand, "Okay, what you should do has been done, you don't need to accompany me, you two can also go back to report the situation to your emperor, and the gods here will be handed over to me, after dealing with this matter, I will return to the empire, and it will be my turn to take a vacation." ”
The Heavenly and Human Realm Martial Arts Hall official's face was a little embarrassed, "I don't know what the Supreme Envoy plans to do with this mang...... Demon? ”
"Destroy its foundation, destroy its soul, since then, there is no Mangshen in Tianniu Prefecture, by the way, bring this document to your Emperor Majesty, because there are two divine incidents within its borders, it has not been dealt with and destroyed on time, according to the imperial order, from now on, the annual tribute will remain unchanged, but the resources allocated by the empire to Da Yin will be reduced by one percent,"
As the words fell, Huangfu Zheng took out a blue-bordered document out of nowhere, stamped the seal of the Central Empire's Kanyu Academy on the final inscription, and handed it to the official of the Lecture Hall behind him.
The official's hand was trembling, and he didn't dare to take it, this allocation of resources was reduced by one percent, but it was even more difficult to accept than the increase in the annual tribute, to guide, the position of Da Yin was relatively poor, only for the cultivation of martial arts, without this percentage of resource allocation, how could the current emperor accept.
"Don't pick up?"
"No, no, the lower officials have no such intentions, it's just that the allocation of resources is reduced by one percent, can the envoy think about it again, Da Yin can be compensated in the annual tribute, the envoy is busy with government affairs, just arrived in my court, the lower officials and others have not yet fulfilled the friendship of the landlord, it is better for us to wait here for the envoy to finish handling the affairs......"
Huangfu straightened up, and at this moment, this originally lazy figure actually became majestic, and his eyes were like knives, sweeping over this great Yin official.
"The laws of the Empire, how can it be changed? Like an official like you, this official has seen a lot, and your thoughts, this official also understands, but this matter, there is absolutely no possibility of flexibility, if you don't take it again, this official can only send a message to the Imperial Kanyu Yuan, do you take this document now or wait for the people from the Imperial Kanyu Yuan to come? Think it through. ”
The martial arts official still wanted to say something, but he was intimidated by his momentum and the signal of Weng Rui on the side, so he bowed down and took the document temporarily.
Weng Rui opened his mouth at this time and asked, "The envoy just said two god incidents, I don't know how the envoy plans to deal with the other one?" ”
The corners of Huangfu's mouth curled slightly, with a hint of sarcasm, "That evil god is not the orthodox way of incense, according to this official's understanding, she has completely cut off the incense connection, and gave up the authority of the gods, so it has nothing to do with the Imperial Kanyu Academy, the punishment that should be given has been given to you, and the rest of the matter belongs to your dynasty and them." ”
Weng Rui was speechless for a while, and the martial arts official also had an ugly face and didn't speak again.
This trip, Emperor Zhao Tianli's two goals have not been achieved, this time to go back, not to die will not be comfortable, don't look at Huangfu Zheng usually does not look like an official, but he is not close to women, and the second does not seem to be short of money and things, when he learned that he came, the intelligence agency of the dynasty had already passed on his details to the lecture martial arts.
Although it is not detailed, it is roughly enough, as for the cultivation resources, not to mention, the patrolmen of the Central Empire, these officials of the lower imperial dynasty can't afford to bribe at all.
Huangfu was leaving, leaving several Da Yin officials in the same place, and they all glanced at each other, and they all saw the helplessness in their eyes, which was difficult to do.
"Actually, Weng thinks that this matter is based on what he said, but it is better to deal with it." Weng Ruisi paused for a moment and said what he thought.
"Where do you say that? The lord of the city. ”
"If Your Majesty thinks that this matter is easy to handle, or if there is still a lot of room for maneuver, do you think that with Your Majesty's wisdom, you will let you come? It's not that I underestimated the two, there is a specialization in the art industry, and the martial arts hall is not good at doing this kind of thing, isn't it better and more appropriate to negotiate with the imperial envoy and let the officials of the Ministry of Rites come? ”
The eyes of the two officials of the martial arts hall lit up, they were not angry because of Weng Rui's words, on the contrary, after listening to his words, the two of them were determined in their hearts, Weng Rui was right, and he was reasonable, and the truth seemed to be so.
It is better to let them fight and kill, and deal with officials of other countries, which is not their responsibility.
"Thank you City Lord Weng for solving your doubts, I'll wait for this to come back to my senses."
Weng Rui returned the salute, "Then I won't delay the two important things, originally you arrived in Tianniu Prefecture, as the city lord, you should be treated well." ”
"The task is important, I will know it later, wait another day, when our brother comes to Tianniu Prefecture again, he will definitely come to visit, and he will be harassing the city lord of Weng at that time."
"Definitely, definitely!!"
First of all, the emperor of the Kanyu Yuan was leaving, and then these two officials from the Shendu Martial Arts Hall left, for a while, the small courtyard of this mansion was empty, Weng Rui glanced at the mountain in the distance, and sighed, in fact, he himself didn't know why there was such a ban, and it also passed between countries.
The spirit of mountains and rivers, as long as its heart is upright, dedicated to the people, and the court is pardoned, why can't it?
Even if there are really some gods who fail to uphold their original intentions and harm one party, with the ability of the imperial court, are they still afraid that they will not be able to calm down? Officials have been in one place for a long time, there will be corruption, and the gods are also cultivated by living beings, and it is reasonable to become bad, and on the whole, the benefits still outweigh the disadvantages.
"I don't understand, but I don't want to understand ......"
