Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Man Who Can't See Through

The lame Dao Tong guarding outside the carriage had a gloomy face, even more gloomy than the shadow of the green mountains and forests that looked like Dai from a distance.

The conversation between the teacher and the Nine Emperors, he didn't miss a word.

It is precisely because of this that the hatred grows.

Who would have thought that he, who took care of him and never left an inch, was the same as Su Hanshan, and it was the first time he heard from the teacher about the origin of the painting box.

Originally, he thought that the teacher just didn't agree with his choice of the Seventh Prince, Su Musha. Compared with the senior brother who was so loyal that he only thought about doing his best and dying, and then created a prosperous era for Su Tang, the disciples that the teacher valued more were always themselves with similar temperaments.

Even if the teacher had already made a rare statement among the many princes' camps in favor of the Nine Emperors, Su Hanshan, he was still convincing himself that this was just a difference in position.

Now it seems that he was simply wrong.

He didn't dare to imagine how much the teacher still had to hide from himself and watch out for himself.

He even began to wonder if in the teacher's heart, he would never be inferior to his brother, and he would always be able to look up to him.

The kind-hearted, jealous and hateful warding off evil spirits clenched his fists and showed his sharp edge.

......

There was a brief silence in the carriage.

Su Hanshan seemed to chew on the information that the old sacrificial wine had just revealed. After about ten breaths, he raised his head slightly to look at the unfathomable Nan Huaizi and asked, "Sir, do you know the whereabouts of the rivers and mountains into the drawing?"

Nan Huaizi, who looked older than Lord Shenque, shook his head and said, "I don't know about this. ”

Su Hanshan has another problem, and it is also the one that has always bothered him the most.

He asked, "Why did you tell me all this?"

Why him?

From the chance encounter carefully arranged by Luofu Mountain to today's secret conversation about the survival of the Spring and Autumn Period, Su Hanshan didn't understand why the old sacrificial wine, who was in charge of Qin Tianjian and had no power and power, would choose himself who also had no foundation in the court?

At the age of the other party, shouldn't he cherish the last of his time to study the impermanence of heaven or resign to enjoy his old age?

Or is it that the people represented by the old sacrificial wine from beginning to end are his apprentices, seeking a way out for the lame Taoist boy outside the carriage?

Or is it all a game at all?

Su Hanshan couldn't see through it.

In front of Nan Huaizi, he always couldn't see this person clearly. I just don't think about it, just as Li Tianxia, the crown prince of the Southern Dynasty, said, if you want to know, just ask, this is a simple thing.

The old sacrificial wine who was stared at by Su Hanshan's bright eyes brushed his beard, and his cloudy eyes were full of fun. He didn't answer directly, but asked Su Hanshan, "Can you allow your highness to ask a question?"

Su Hanshan said, "Please speak." ”

The old sacrificial wine said tentatively: "How about trampling the magnificent and majestic Sheji mountains and rivers under your feet?"

Su Hanshan chuckled.

He has never coveted the throne, let alone the desire to compete with his siblings for favor and the prince.

Growing up in Hanshan Temple in the Southern Dynasty, he was pure-hearted and had few desires, and he regarded the so-called rights and reputation as dung, and he was not interested in it at all. Compared with the height of the temple, he even yearns for the distance of the rivers and lakes.

If he has the opportunity to wander the world in the future, he will not hesitate to leave all kinds of burdens behind him, and he will not look back.

This is what he said from his heart, and he has not said it to anyone so far. Because he knew that even if he said it, no one would believe it.

The eldest brother doesn't believe it, the seventh emperor brother doesn't believe it, and even the fourth brother doesn't necessarily believe it.

Since it is a heartfelt word that no one believes, then there is no point in explaining it.

So he's very crisp.

He asked Nan Huaizi, "Sir, do you think that the supreme lord of Su Tang of the Ninth Five-Year Plan can be more attractive than the state religion and saint?"

Su Tang relied on the Daomen to build a state, Tianfu Mountain is the desire of the people, and it is undoubtedly the foundation of the empire, although the cultivators should not ask about the red dust of the temple, but the lord of the empire has always been approved by the state religion and the saint, which is the unchanged ancestral inheritance of Su Tang for hundreds of years.

In other words, in the Soviet-Tang Empire, when it came to dignity, the so-called lord of a country could not be compared with the state religion on which he depended.

Of course, this is not to say that the lords of Su Tang have been puppets supported by the Dao Sect throughout the ages. In fact, the people believed in the state religion and the imperial court governed the territory, and the two complemented each other, and there was no conflict in the first place.

Moreover, from the Warring States Period to the Spring and Autumn Period, the emperors of all dynasties had the experience of cultivating in Tianfu Mountain when they were young. or the protégé of the Holy See, or the first disciple of the dean of the Seven Star Academy, inherited to the generation of Emperor Jingyou, without exception.

Therefore, since the founding of the Su and Tang Dynasties, there has never really been a state religion and saint opposing the imperial family. It is precisely because the princes have had an inseparable relationship with the Daomen or the relationship between teachers and students, so in a sense, the two religions of the Daomen are the inevitable backing of the new emperor's accession to the throne, rather than the obstructor.

Therefore, there has always been a saying in the empire that there is no Su Tang in the Daomen. This is the same as the fact that the Sword Sect does not exist and there is no Western Shu, the Buddhism does not exist and there is no Southern Dynasty, and the warriors do not exist and there is no Northern Yan.

Although Su Hanshan is the ninth son of Emperor Jingyou, he is now also a protégé of Lord Shenque, the head of the Heaven Sect, and the future seal keeper of the Qinglian Palace. If he can take away the title of orthodoxy of the National Religion from Feng Qiwu, he will be the next saint of the Daomen, and the real transcendent existence of the Sutang Empire will still need to covet that throne with fratricide?

Isn't it stupid?

......

Su Hanshan's rhetorical question, the old priest smiled and said nothing.

He had no intention of continuing to argue, because he knew very well that there was a word in this world called involuntarily.

Perhaps Su Hanshan, the ninth prince, has no opinion on the throne of the emperor, and has been able to maintain his original intention so far.

But what if anyone wants him to reign over the world?

For example, Your Majesty today, for example, Huang Shang'er, who kept saying that she wanted to marry the co-owner of the world, for example, Liu Xuance, who did not hesitate to give away the foundation of Qingfeng Village to make a name, and then for example, himself......

When everyone around him was looking forward to him taking that step, could he still be as light as he is now?

The old sacrificial wine smiled and said: "Your Highness should regard this as a statement of the old minister's position, if it really comes to that day, I just want to be stable for the rest of my life." ”

Su Hanshan got out of the carriage.

With confusion.

After a meal with the old priest of Qin Tianjian, he was completely defeated. Because until now, he still doesn't know how true or false what the other party said and what he wanted.

This is a person who makes him completely incomprehensible, and that feeling is terrible.

He obviously wouldn't simply believe that all this was just a vote, and how could someone who could teach a disciple like Taishi Li Guochu be an ordinary person?

sighed, and saw that all the scholars waiting for the examination at the foot of Tianfu Mountain began to climb the mountain and rush to the examination room, Su Hanshan turned around and greeted Huang Shang'er and a few people, and then went up the mountain with Li Tianxia.

The two separated in front of the Qinglian Palace.

Li Tianxia entered the examination room.

Su Hanshan walked straight towards the three-thousand-zhang tall Fusang tree on the east side.

My father was there, and he rested on the star platform.
