Chapter 248: The Holy Temple
Early in the morning of the second day, after the Shang army had breakfast, the whole army pulled out the camp and left Jizhou. However, when Ye Xuan asked Lu Xiong to send Su Quanzhong back to Jizhou, there was a little accident, after Su Hu heard that Ye Xuan was going to continue to lead the troops to Beihai, he didn't know if it was to show loyalty or what, and took the initiative to ask his general Zheng Lun and his son Su Quanzhong to lead the army to accompany him.
In this regard, Ye Xuan knew in his heart that it was most likely because Su Hu was afraid that he would not be at ease, so he sent his son Su Quanzhong to his side to show his loyalty. And Ye Xuan also knew that no matter whether he let Su Hu rest assured or not, if he didn't bring Su Quanzhong with him, then Su Hu wouldn't be at ease if he didn't say anything else, but would suspect that he had some conspiracy, so after thinking about it again, Ye Xuan still brought Su Quanzhong with him.
A few days later, the song was sung.
Morning.
After all the officials arrived, Abikan took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to play." Yesterday, Jizhou emergency report, Jizhou Hou Suhu, felt the grace of heaven, the heavenly soldiers, did not dare to disobey, so the above table to ask for guilt, willing to belong to my big business, from generation to generation to serve my big business, but also hope that His Majesty will be judged. ”
Hearing this, because Zishou had already received Ye Xuan's letter yesterday, he was not surprised, and said directly: "Since the Hou of Jizhou has the heart to return, then Gu will not be rejected thousands of miles away." Spread the lonely oracle, Xuan Jizhou Hou entered Beijing, as for his disposal, then see whether he is sincere or not to make a decision. ”
"Commandment. ”
Bigan received his will and returned to his place. Seeing this, Uncle Zhong, who was standing beside Zishou, stepped forward and said, "If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat." ”
At this moment, the old prime minister Shang Rong suddenly came out and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister has a plan to play." ”
"Oh?" Zishou was slightly surprised when he saw Shang Rong speak, and couldn't help asking, "What's the important thing about the old prime minister?" What is really important is that for example, such a major event as Su Hu's surrender, it seems that Bigan will give him a favor, and then he will agree, but in fact, these things have been discussed before, and the court is just going through a process. Most of the things that are really to be discussed in the court are inconsequential trivialities. However, now that Shang Rong came out suddenly, it is not surprising that he can't help but feel uncomfortable - Shang Rong is the prime minister, and it will naturally not be a trivial matter for him to speak, but he has not discussed it with himself before, which is a little strange.
In the court of this matter, Shang Rong naturally saw Zishou's doubts, so he opened his mouth to explain: "Back to Your Majesty, although this matter has nothing to do with state affairs, it is particularly important, so the old minister has to play." Tomorrow is the day of the birth of our human race, and Your Majesty should go to the temple to worship our Father and Mother. ”
Hearing this, Zishou was stunned for a moment, and then reacted - this matter was indeed explained to him before Di Yi died. Therefore, Zishou also nodded and said: "Being alone as a great merchant is the son of heaven, but this matter should be." Tomorrow's things will be arranged by the old prime minister. ”
"The old minister obeyed. ”
After the dispersal of the dynasty, the will was handed down, although this matter was in an eventful time, but it was related to the birthday of the human race, and no one dared to slack off.
Early the next morning, accompanied by the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, Zishou's frame went out of the palace and went to the temple to offer incense.
Along the way, I saw that inside and outside the city of Chaoge, every household was burning incense and praying.
When they arrived at the temple, the accompanying soldiers and horses immediately imposed martial law around the temple. And Zishou went to the main hall to offer incense in person, accompanied by hundreds of civil and military officials.
All over the human race, because of different regions, the influence is different, so there are many gods of heaven and earth worshipped, such as Lao Tzu, the leader of the human religion, such as the primitive Tongtian, such as the two saints of the West, such as the emperors of all parties, among them, the most influential can be said to be Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu as the head of the human religion, it can be said that the human race everywhere is worshipping him. However, even if he is Lao Tzu, he is not qualified to be ranked in the holy temple and worshiped by the whole human race. Looking at the flood wilderness, there are only two people who are qualified to be ranked in the holy temple, and there are only two people who are worshiped by the whole human race, one is Nuwa, and the other is Ye Xuan, because the holy temple is the holy temple of the human race, even if Lao Tzu is the leader of the human sect, even if he is the supreme saint between heaven and earth, but he does not belong to the human race after all. There are only two statues of Nuwa and Ye Xuan on the main seat in the temple, and on both sides of the main hall, there are statues of the three ancestors of the human race, the three emperors and five emperors, and the statues of the ancestors of the human race such as Wenzu Cangjie stand around.
After entering the main hall, Zishou finished worshipping with the hundred officials, and prepared to leave. However, he didn't know that at this moment, there was a person in the sky above the Terran Holy Temple, who was staring at him all the time.
Seeing that Zishou was about to leave after finishing the incense, the figure had a cold face, and with a slight wave of his hand, an invisible fluctuation passed directly and silently through the heavy suppression formed in the holy temple, and directly submerged into Zishou's mind, and then the figure turned around and left.
And in the main hall of the holy temple, Zi Shou, who was about to leave after the incense, suddenly stopped, looked back at the two statues in the main hall that were covered by curtains, looked around and asked: "Gu suddenly wants to know, we have worshiped the Holy Father and the Holy Mother for generations, and anyone has ever paid homage to the Holy Father and the Holy Mother?"
Hearing Zishou say this, the civil and military forces couldn't help but look at each other a little, not knowing what Zishou was asking for. However, since the Son was questioned, the courtiers replied truthfully: "Your Majesty, the Holy Father and Our Lady are the supreme beings of our race, and no one dares to offend, so the ministers have never paid homage to the Holy Father and the Holy Mother. ”
"Oh?" With a soft sigh, Zishou looked at the two statues in the main hall that were covered by curtains, and his eyes couldn't help but show some interest: "Come on, help Gu pull the curtain open, and be alone as a great merchant and the son of heaven, and look at the face of the Holy Father and the Holy Mother with your own eyes, so that you can often worship in your heart in the future." ”
Hearing Zishou say this, before others could react, the old prime minister Shang Rong was immediately shocked, and hurriedly bowed: "Your Majesty, no! The reason why the statue of the Holy Father and the Virgin Mary is covered with a curtain in the holy temple is because the dignity of the Holy Father and the Holy Mother should not be seen by mortals, otherwise it will be the greatest blasphemy. I hope that Your Majesty will take back your order, and you must not let people open the veil!"
Hearing Shang Rong say this, Zishou glanced at him with displeasure, and said coldly: "What does the old prime minister mean? As a single son of great business, don't you even have the qualifications to see the Holy Father and the Holy Mother with your own eyes?"
"This ......"
Glancing at Shang Rong coldly, Zishou didn't pay attention to Shang Rong anymore, nor did he wait for anyone to open the curtain, but walked forward in person, and with a wave of his hand, the curtain that was originally hidden in front of the two statues was opened.
However, at the moment when the curtain was opened, a cold snort full of anger rang in everyone's ears at the same time.
"Humph!"
