Chapter 338: The Co-governance of Man and God
Days passed.
Li Xiuyuan can be said to have never left the mansion in the past few days, and the last banquet was not carried out satisfactorily, and many things that should be decided have not been decided.
So I was busy afterwards.
"Childe, this is the list of ghosts and gods from all directions, the little ghost has been registered, this is the book of the cities and counties in Yangzhou, as well as some local city gods, land vacancies, in addition, the water god of the water area can not be counted, there is no water god among the ghosts and gods who took refuge, the little ghost heard that the water area of Yangzhou was divided into two before, and it was controlled by the two forces. ”
In the newly renovated lobby, Li Linfu handed over a few documents and gave a general explanation.
After Li Xiuyuan took it: "Thank you for your hard work, if you don't have your talent, I really don't know where to start with the jurisdiction of this Yangzhou territory." ”
His words were filled with sincere gratitude, not hypocrisy.
Li Linfu is indeed a great talent, whether it is collecting the ghosts and gods of the Quartet, making a register, or taking the Yin soldiers and ghosts to collect the information of the ghosts and gods of the Quartet, screening them one by one, determining the general situation of Yangzhou's boundaries, or making suggestions, and governing the distribution of these ghosts and gods, they are very well-organized and very regulated.
On the contrary, Li Xiuyuan can do nothing, as long as it is implemented in accordance with the above regulations.
This is the talent of the prime minister, and it is not something that can be compensated for by the level of Taoism.
In terms of importance, Li Xiuyuan felt that Li Linfu's value was enough to exceed ten ghost kings.
"Childe is polite, this is the little ghost's business. Li Linfu said politely.
Li Xiuyuan said: "The matter of the water area is no less than the city god, the position of the land, you said before that the water area of the Yangzhou boundary is roughly divided into two major forces, I don't know which two are the two." ”
"One is the Dragon King of Wujiang, he is the god of water sealed by the Heavenly Palace, and the way is profound, the god of water who dominates the large and small waters, but he was killed by the son, and now the water god of the large and small waters has no one to restrain him, to listen to a Yin soldier in advance, recently there is a water god called the eight kings in the waters of Yangzhou, which seems to be gathering the spirits of the large and small waters, and wants to replace the position of the dragon king of Wujiang. Li Linfu said.
"Eight kings?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled suddenly: "He was arranged by me, and I asked him to be the water god in Yangzhou territory, dredge the waterway, and drive the duty of the water god." ”
"I see, I didn't expect Gongzi to have an arrangement, so that only the West Lake Lord will be left in the waters of Yangzhou. Li Linfu said.
"Who is the Lord of the West Lake? It shouldn't be the Heavenly Palace, right?" Li Xiuyuan said.
According to the previous agreement with the Heavenly Palace, the ghosts and gods of Yangzhou should be transferred, and the fact that the Lord of the West Lake has not been transferred means that he is not under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Palace.
Li Linfu said: "The Lord of the West Lake is a collective name for a force, which means that the Lake to the West is the Lord, ruling the West Lake, Poyang Lake, Dongting Lake, and the three major lakes, and has a close relationship with the gods of many waters. ”
"In this way, it seems that this West Lake Lord is not simple. Li Xiu said from afar.
The dignified Dragon King of Wujiang can only govern one side of the water, a big river, but the Lord of West Lake can govern the three major lakes, and the waters are innumerable, which shows how deep the water of this force is.
The world of Liaozhai seems to be the dear love of scholars and fox girls, but in fact, it is not deeply explored, because there are some things that ordinary people can't touch, even if they are a little lucky enough to come into contact with some ghosts and gods, that's just
It can be said that the waters in the south are mainly managed by West Lake.
This must be a huge force.
"Exactly, and the little ghost guesses that the power of the West Lake Lord is so strong that even the Heavenly Palace can't control it. Li Linfu said.
Li Xiuyuan said: "Why is there such a speculation. ”
Li Linfu said in a low voice: "Gongzi wants to govern Yangzhou, unless he gives up the waters, he will never be able to reach the level of the Lord of the West Lake, the little ghost guesses that those immortals in the Heavenly Palace will assign the boundary of Yangzhou to Gongzi to govern, and there is a little bit of borrowing Gongzi's hand to deal with some forces that do not listen to the dispatch." ”
"Borrowing a knife to kill someone?" Li Xiuyuan groaned.
"Regardless of whether it is to kill people with a knife or not, Childe should join forces with the Lord of the West Lake, so that not only can the calculations of those immortals in the Heavenly Palace be dismantled, but also the waters of all parties can be stabilized effortlessly, after all, Childe wants great governance, not fighting for power with ghosts and gods. Li Linfu said.
Li Xiuyuan immediately smiled when he heard this: "It makes sense, some immortals in the Heavenly Palace are high and powerful, they think that they are obsessed with power, and others are also obsessed with power, but I don't know that my ambition is not here, since the Lord of the West Lake controls more than half of the waters of the world, then I have to give a few thin faces, but it is cooperation and co-governance, or I am ruthless, it also depends on which side the Lord of the West Lake is willing to stand on, after all, I beheaded the Dragon King of Wujiang, maybe the water gods of the Lord of the West Lake also wish I died early." ”
"I'll write two letters later, you send Yin soldiers and ghosts to find the Eight Kings, one for him, and one for the Eight Kings to transfer to the Lord of the West Lake, and let them discuss the matter of the water gods, I only need a result." ”
Li Linfu said: "Childe's move is very good. ”
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and smiled: "I hope that the water god of the Lord of the West Lake can communicate, if it is a group of arrogant and unreasonable demons, I will have a headache in this regard." ”
"Childe has great fortune, no matter what he does, it will be smooth, and this matter will be successfully achieved. Li Linfu said: "It's just that the little ghost has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not." ”
"Say, you're my right-hand man now, and there's nothing you shouldn't talk about. Li Xiu said from afar.
Li Linfu said: "Yangzhou wants to be governed, not all rely on ghosts and gods, the harm of corrupt officials does not have to be much worse than demons and chaos, if the politics is not clear, such as the rotten roots of a big tree, even if it is a moment to pull out weeds, exterminate insects and ants can not flourish and last." ”
"Of course I know, it's just that I'm just a white man now, I only have the fame of a showman, and I can't govern the officials of a state, and I don't know if I have to wait for the title of the gold list, and I don't know if I have to wait until the Year of the Monkey, so I plan to find another way. Li Xiu said from afar.
"Please also ask Childe to make it clear. Li Linfu said.
Li Xiuyuan looked at the document book in his hand and said: "The book of life and death in Yangzhou is in my hands, first arrange for the ghosts and gods from all over the country to serve as the city god, and then let them collect the crimes and good deeds of officials from all sides, corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and torture them to show punishment, and then if they don't repent, they will directly make him sick and painful, and they can't take care of themselves. ”
"Ghosts and gods harm people, but also make people fearful, if ghosts and gods only harm the wicked, the wicked people must be frightened, naturally dare not do evil, the governance of Yangzhou will also be clear, this is the governance plan I have considered before, people and gods rule together, the world is peaceful. If the ghosts and spirits do evil, they can also let the government destroy the temple and hunt down the spirits, if the government does evil, then the ghosts and gods also want to hook the soul, reduce the blessings, and inflict the pain. ”
In this way, mutual checks and balances, as long as one side is stabilized, can ensure that the world is not chaotic. ”
Li Linfu couldn't help but be a little excited when he heard this: "The co-rule of man and god, this is a good policy to stabilize the eternal life, since ancient times, it is not the court that is strong, suppressing ghosts and gods, or ghosts and gods are powerful to suppress the court, for thousands of years, the dynasty has changed, ghosts and gods rise and fall, and it is the people who suffer after all. ”
He felt that if this way was successful, his Li Linfu would be famous for eternity, and he would wash away all kinds of notoriety.
"Only man and God are not equal, people have seven emotions and six desires, birth, old age, sickness and death, but God lives forever in the world, and knows the way and the law, so if you want to realize the co-governance of man and God, the most important thing is to limit the wanton behavior of ghosts and gods, otherwise everything is empty talk. Li Xiu said from afar.
As soon as he crossed the book of life and death, people died, but he could not cross out the lives of ghosts and gods.
"Yes, it is precisely because the ghosts and gods act recklessly, treating the people as pigs and sheep, only trying to collect incense and worship, and become immortals, but they don't want to reciprocate, so that the ghosts and gods are rampant in this world, and there are countless temples, which not only work the people and hurt money, but also make the people suffer from the scourge of ghosts and gods, plus this court is mediocre, how can the world not be chaotic. Li Linfu said.
"I have the direction of governance, but I need your help in the details, can you get a charter for me in the next few days, if you can, I want to implement it as soon as possible. Li Xiu said from afar.
Li Linfu arched his hand and said: "Please also ask Gongzi to let the little ghost for three days." ”
"I'll give you five days, and if I don't have enough people, I'll figure it out. Li Xiu said from afar.
