At that moment, Chen Tianshi put forward the proposal he had prepared. His proposal is limited by three aspects.

The first is to strictly control the number of monks in the upper three palaces; the second is to stipulate that all the relatives of the Son of Heaven within three generations are not allowed to practice in the clan, except for the first prince; and the third is to explicitly order that the clans and their families with the titles of prince, prince of the county, general of the town state, and general of the auxiliary state are not allowed to practice.

Zhao Ran's eyes lit up: "This method is good! It is equivalent to turning the emperor's prohibition of cultivation into the prohibition of cultivation in the clan, although the emperor's restrictions have been relaxed, the number of sect monks has been greatly reduced, and the emperor has become a lonely person in cultivation, and if he wants to create a Taoist sect, his strength is even more insufficient." ”

Chen Tianshi said: "This is just an idea, it has not been studied more rigorously, and it was originally going to take a few years to polish it...... Now that I am no longer a true master, I don't have the heart to do so, so I handed over the proposal to Senior Brother Guo and asked him to consider it, and when the time is ripe in a few years, I can submit it to the True Master Hall for resolution. ”

Zhao Ran asked: "Why can't it be made earlier, and it can be prevented before it happens." ”

Chen Tianshi muttered: "Zhiran has not yet reached the position of making decisions, but I believe that Zhiran will definitely be one of the decision-makers in the future. “

Zhao Ran bowed down and said, "Please ask Tianshi Chen for advice." “

Chen Tianshi said: "The higher-ups need to consider the redundancy of governance when formulating strategies, and we often have good intentions to introduce new policies, and after they are implemented below, they will often be discounted, and the more levels passed through in the middle, the greater the discount, so that changes, distortions, perfunctory responses, and so on, and so on. ”

Zhao Ran nodded: "Overkill must be overdone, and the enemy must be lenient." ”

So when we want to put it, we must be careful, and when we want to collect it, we must make a big show, otherwise we can't collect it, and we can't put it down, that is, three words are a blind toss." Taking the heavy tree of the Son of Heaven Weide as an example, this is a kind of release, we must be more open and bigger now, in order to ensure that the establishment of the virtue is not discounted because of human interference, if it is proposed to restrict the cultivation of the sect at this time, the bruise to the Son of Heaven Weide will be far greater than we imagine, and there is even the possibility of going against the original intention. At present, let the Son of Heaven establish Weide, which is the most important thing, even if there are some invisible phenomena, they can only be carefully corrected one by one, and cannot be strictly prohibited from the surface. How to grasp the balance is something that policymakers need to carefully consider. “

Zhao Ran sighed: "If you manage it, you will die, and if you let it go, it will be chaotic, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, I don't know how many outstanding people have been stumped by these eight words......"

Chen Tianshi agreed: "The so-called 'governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh', which is the case. ”

Zhao Ran heard it, Chen Tianshi said so much, and in fact, he was also explaining to Zhao Ran from another angle the reason why he spared no cost in the matter of Xiu'an and tried to ensure that there was no large-scale turmoil in the upper three palaces, and he was always unwilling to make a move on the emperor's most important pillar in the cultivation world before the Weide Lotus was formed.

You say that he is appeased or indulgent, this is what he really thinks, the Weide Lotus is more important to Chen Tianshi than the authority of the Heavenly Master of the Treasure Scripture Pavilion, all the possible factors that will affect the formation of the Weide Lotus, Chen Tianshi must find ways to eliminate, this is Zhao Ran's unshakable will.

In fact, Chen Tianshi was willing to take the time to explain to him, which was already good, thinking about his own side, such a big exchange of interests, several true masters hid him to death, thinking of this, Zhao Ran was a little cold and unwilling. Maybe it's because Xu Zhenren and Wu Tiansour are afraid that he will come out to find trouble, and they also know that he has the ability to find trouble? Or maybe people are really busy and don't think they need to explain to him? The latter may be more likely......

After chatting with Chen Tianshi for a long time in the Dan room of the Jade Void Palace, he had the knowledge and experience that Zhao Ran did not have in a high position, so Zhao Ran felt that he had gained a lot.

Later, Chen Tianshi talked about another problem, that is, the change of the palace of the show girl: "Su Chuanyao and other show girls were forced by the situation to cause the palace change, first put aside the right and wrong, don't misunderstand, I think Su Chuanyao and they are worthy of sympathy." From the point of view of the palace guards, this is not a good sign. In the past, we didn't have to think too much about it, but in the future, the matter of preventing the monks from assassinating the emperor must be put on the agenda. ”

"Chen Tianshi wants to strengthen the palace guards?"

"Yes, although I have resigned from the position of true master, I am still the master of the Yuanfu Palace, and I am still in charge of the three palaces. Zhu Xianjian proposed that in order to prevent the occurrence of such palace changes or assassinations, it is necessary to transfer the monks of the upper three palaces to the Ouchi, which I think is necessary. Although the emperor has already married Dan, he has no experience in fighting, and I am afraid that Huang Guan, who often fights in the border area, will be able to kill the emperor. Now in the palace, including Chen Yin, there are no two guards who have practice, it is too few, so Zhu Xianjian plans to send twenty monks from the upper third palace into the palace to prepare for the guard, and I agreed. Because you are the abbot of Xuantan Palace, I will inform you in advance, and there will be no misunderstanding when the time comes. ”

Zhao Ran sighed and said, "Tianshi Chen, you are thinking about the Third Palace, have you ever considered Xiaodao's safety?"

"What do you mean?"

"There is an offering named Zhu Longxi in Chaotian Palace, since February this year, he has been entangled in manpower, trying to murder me, just I know, I have planned more than six or seven times, fortunately, Xiaodao has some self-defense skills, and luck is good, otherwise you won't see Xiaodao at this moment. ”

"Is there such a thing?"

"If they dare to kill Gu Ke's apprentice, don't they dare to beat my idea? If Chen Tianshi, your old man doesn't believe it, the next time they do it, I will try to catch a live mouth and send it to the upper third palace for you to see. ”

Chen Tianshi's face immediately sank, and he was silent for a moment, and said, "I know." ”

After talking to Chen Tianshi for almost two hours, Zhao Ran said goodbye and turned back to Yunshui Hall. Chen Tianshi didn't have the mood to reminisce while cleaning up, quickly put away the things, said a simple goodbye to Guo Hongjing, and went straight out of the Jinji Peak Cave.

Back in Yingtian, Li Dayin, who got the news, was already waiting at the gate of Yuanfu Palace, and after meeting the teacher, he had mixed tastes.

Chen Tianshi said: "My withdrawal from the True Master Hall has been decided, and Da Yin doesn't need to persuade me anymore, it's useless to persuade me." ”

Li Dayin said: "I don't persuade the teacher anymore, I know it's useless to persuade now, the disciple just wants to ask, is it really worth the teacher to pay so much in the third palace?"

Chen Tianshi said: "It's not that the three palaces are worth paying for the teacher, but the Great Dao, another avenue to choose from, the only hope for your ancestor to ascend." ”

Li Dayin sighed secretly: "Disciple understands. ”

Chen Tianshi said again: "I rushed back today to ask Zhu Xian a few words to see them, have they come back from Lushan?"

Li Dayin said: "I just came back, half an hour ago, Qi Wang Feifu and I said that they wanted to invite their disciples to eat and drink. When the disciple heard about the teacher, how could he have the heart to make an appointment......

Chen Tianshi interrupted: "Go and call all three of them, go quickly!"

It didn't take long for Zhu Xianjian, Lan Daoxing, and Duan Chaoyong to rush to Yuanfu Palace, and stepped forward to meet Chen Tianshi, who opened his mouth and asked, "What kind of enmity do you have with Zhao Zhiran that you can't resolve, and you have to put him to death?"

The three of them looked at each other, and after a while, Zhu Xianjian replied: "Where did the Heavenly Master know that we were going to kill Zhao Zhiran?"

"You don't care where I got it, just ask you if there's such a thing!"

Lan Daoxing didn't dare to say anything, Zhu Xianjian and Duan Chaoyong replied at the same time:

Zhu Xianjian: "Yes." ”

Duan Chaoyong: "There is nothing to do!"
