Chapter 33: Transformation

The "Sandu Meeting" in the main hall of the Yamen of the Governor of Long'an Mansion in the West Zhenwu Palace revealed a strange atmosphere from beginning to end, making Jing Zhimo not very transparent.

First of all, Zhang Yunzhao of the prison invited the abbot Du Tenghui to participate in the deliberations, although it did not violate the rules of the Daomen, but it did not conform to the practice of the West Zhenwu Palace.

Secondly, Zhong Xunzhao's list of candidates for the Wuji Academy, which he, Du Chu, and Du Shu all agreed with, in fact, it had been negotiated and approved by everyone in advance, but there was no communication in the "Sandu Deliberations", because Zhang Yunzhao of the Supervision Yuan did not nod. And the reason why Zhang Yunzhao didn't nod was because the abbot Du Tenghui raised an objection.

In the end, Zhang Yunzhao actually mentioned that since the abbot and the three capitals disagreed, he simply asked the abbot to go to Wuji Yuan to inspect and consult the opinions of the Taoist priests of Wuji Yuan on this matter.

Such a "three-capital discussion" that violated common sense was the first time since Jing Zhimo took office as the governor, so Jing Zhimo asked to see Zhang Yunzhao again with many doubts.

Before he could sit down in the prison house, Jing Zhimo said eagerly: "Prison house, today's discussion, I don't know why this is so?"

Zhang Yunzhao leaned back in the chair and smiled, "Think it's inappropriate?"

"It's extremely inappropriate!'Sandu Deliberation' is a big plan, and the abbot must not interfere arbitrarily, this is the rule of the Daomen. In today's deliberations, the three capitals have recognized all the positions of the Wuji Academy, and it is inappropriate for Abbot Du to obstruct him, why does the prison court connive at it? and even let him go to the Wuji Yuan to check? The prison court, this case cannot be opened!"

Zhang Yunzhao smiled and said, "When Senior Nephew Du first arrived in Sichuan, some things are not clear, let him go down to have a look, which can increase his understanding of the following, which is a good thing." ”

"But what if he relied on the name of the abbot to forcibly put pressure on Wuji Courtyard, causing things to change?"

"We have to believe the following colleagues, they will give the true situation back to Master Du's nephew. ”

As soon as these words came out, Jing Zhimo immediately froze, and after a while, he muttered: "I'm just worried that the fellow Daoists of Wuji Academy won't be able to withstand the prestige of the abbot......

Zhang Yunzhao stared at Jing Zhimo and said slowly: "That means that the fellow practitioners of Wuji Academy are still shallow and not of great use. ”

Jing Zhimo's body shook slightly, and he was silent for a long time, and said, "Understood...... It's just that I heard that the list of this transfer of positions was made by the Jade Emperor Pavilion Chu Great Refiner Ken......"

Zhang Yunzhao smiled, waved his hand and said, "This is a fallacy, don't worry." ”

Jing Zhimo quit the prison building, and he couldn't let go of his heart, so he went to find Bai Tengming again.

Bai Tengming was a handful of years old, and he had already passed the year of the Mandate of Heaven, and after listening to Jing Zhimo's detailed description, he couldn't help but smile: "It's what I expected, why should my nephew be suspicious?"

Jing Zhimo asked: "Listen to the meaning of the prison court, if the people of Wuji Court can't withstand the pressure of Abbot Du...... I'm afraid I can't bear it. ”

Bai Tengming asked, "What do you want to do?"

Jing Zhimo cautiously asked, "Can you send someone to Wuji Courtyard to secretly wake up?"

Bai Tengming said solemnly: "No, there is no leaky wall in the world, if it is found out by the prison after the fact, how can you explain?" Seeing that Jing Zhimo seemed to be still hesitating, Bai Tengming's face became a little more solemn, and said: "Nine years ago, you were sent by Xuanyuan Guan to my Xizhenwu Palace as the master of the scriptures......"

Jing Zhimo stood up respectfully and saluted Bai Tengming: "Uncle Shi, since I entered the Xizhen Wu Palace, it has been my uncle who has taught me scriptures, taken care of my daily life, and told me the truth of being a man. ”

Bai Tengming waved his hand: "It's still your own hard work, I'll just mention a few words from the side, your scripture is already excellent, enough to teach all the children of the Dao, and I can't talk about teaching." Do you know how the original position of scripture master was vacant?"

"I heard that I went to the southwest border to educate Li Shu, and later encountered the Tubo people disturbing the border, and unfortunately died. ”

Bai Tengming sighed and said, "Nine years ago, the abbot at that time was Li Yunchong, and he was also like the abbot Du today, full of ambition and wanted to make a difference. For the matter of whether to set up a new Longshan Temple in Xingqing Yuan in Jiangyou County, a dispute with the prison students, and it is also the same today, Zhang Jian Yuan asked the abbot to inspect Xingqing Temple, and the abbot went, and the people of Xingqing Yuan were encouraged by the abbot to write to ask for the establishment of Longshan Temple...... As a result, the Longshan Temple was not erected in the end. ”

"The prison disagrees?"

"Yes. ”

"Why?

"Whether the Longshan Temple is set up or not, the prison has no opinion - this is not the key, the key is that this matter is proposed by the abbot. ”

"I see...... That scripture master, he reported to Xingqing Academy?"

"Yes, Xingqingyuan also received his reminder, but the Taoist priests of the courtyard made a wrong choice, they thought that there was an abbot in front to protect them from the wind and rain, and they couldn't blame them for any changes. Speaking of which, at that time, Uncle Zhang had just taken over as the supervisor of Xizhenwu Palace for only three years, and his prestige was not obvious, so it was no wonder that Xingqing Academy made such a choice. Unfortunately, if you make the wrong choice, you will inevitably suffer the consequences of the mistake. Within a year, Xingqingyuan went up to the prison and down to Sandu and the eight deacons, all of whom were transferred to the Western Sichuan Propaganda Division, leaving only the abbot of Xingqingyuan, who was not involved in the matter, staying there, guarding an empty shelf. Zuo Tengfeng also died last year, and he didn't die until the last one...... By the way, the scripture master who reported the news was the first to be transferred. As for Li Yunchong, who was the abbot of Xizhenwu Palace at that time, he asked himself to leave his post seven days before you came, and I don't know how he is now. ”

Jing Zhimo took a breath of cold air, was silent for a long time, and hesitated: "Understood...... Can ......"

Bai Tengming said: "Uncle Zhang's thoughts are not for you and me to speculate, but you remember that you must not interfere in this matter at will. I know you, are you worried about your friend being implicated in this?"

"Let Uncle Shi smile......"

If so, you can relax. Didn't you serve before Zhiyuan was transferred to the White Horse Mountain Army, and since he was not in the courtyard, he had nothing to do with this matter, and I will clear this up for you. ”

Jing Zhimo got Bai Tengming's promise, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, thanked him and retreated.

The news that Du Teng, the abbot of Xizhenwu Palace, would come to Wuji Courtyard soon spread to Guyang County, and not only Wuji Courtyard shook up and down, but the officials of Guyang County were also busy. The purpose of the Du Teng Association is to investigate the changes in the positions of several high-ranking deacons of the Wuji Academy, which involves the internal Daomen, but it is related to the overlap of power in the entire Guyang County, and it is definitely the top priority in Guyang County since the beginning of spring this year.

On May 18, Du Teng will enter the territory of Guyang County, and the three capitals of Wuji Yuan, the eight deacons, and the officials of the county will welcome ten miles.

Du Tenghui got off the carriage at the receiving official pavilion, and under the introduction of Zhong Tenghong, the squatter inspector of the Xizhenwu Palace, who accompanied him, he greeted everyone in Guyang County with a spring breeze and returned the salute one by one. After the greetings were over, the officials of Guyang County returned to the county office, and Du Tenghui rushed to Wuji Mountain with the Taoist priests of Wuji Academy.

Hearing that the abbot of Wuji Academy was bedridden due to illness, Du Teng was unhappy, but he was not good, because this old abbot was very big, and he couldn't afford to provoke him, but the idea of having a good talk with the other party was also dispelled by him.

In the three days after Abbot Du went up the mountain, he kept talking with people, Luo Duguan, Yuan Duchu, and Zhu Dujiao were naturally the first batch of people to talk, followed by Song Xunzhao, Jiang Gaogong and other deacons, and soon, his true intention was revealed.

In the past three days, if you want to say who is the busiest person in Wuji Academy, then apart from this Abbot Du, it should be Zhao Ran. Every time Abbot Du finished talking to someone, Zhao Ran would be summoned by the person to talk to him again, so he could be regarded as the person who knew Abbot Du's intentions the most in the entire Wuji Courtyard.

On this day, Zhao Ran was summoned by Song Xunzhao again, and as soon as he entered the dormitory, Zhao Ran saw Song Xunzhao's iron-blue face, and Zhao Ran's heart sank.

The two sat opposite each other for a long time, and Song Xunzhao finally spoke: "Abbot Du will call me over again today...... He made it clear that this time as the abbot of Wuji Academy, he liked the ...... surnamed Dong."

Zhao Ran was taken aback, in the past few days, he had talked with the three capitals of Wuji Yuan and the deacons, he already knew that Abbot Du did not recognize the transfer list reported by Wuji Academy, and he initially guessed that Abbot Du might choose someone else to come to Wuji Yuan as a supervisor, that is, the so-called "airborne" in later generations, but he didn't expect that this candidate turned out to be the deacon Dong who was in charge of the number room in the courtyard, which was really a bit unexpected.

"How can this begin? Deacon Dong is in charge of the number room, and I have never heard of the number room deacon being transferred to the prison house!"

Song Xunzhao snorted and said, "But the Daomen has never had a rule that deacons in the number room are not allowed to move to the prison house. ”

"Did Abbot Du say this?"

Song Xunzhao was silent, his face full of anger, while Zhao Ran stroked his forehead with his hand, thinking about it for a long time.

There was silence in the squatter room.
