Chapter 292: A New Canon of Subtle Words

Yang Xiao has been so busy lately, and there are five scattered helpers in the Ming Wang Festival, and he can still get out, but the things in the Interpretation Bureau are the most energy-consuming. Not only should the many classics brought by the top of the light be sorted out, but the compilation of the new doctrinal scriptures must be carefully worded and not biased at all. Moreover, the old man Zhu Sheng, who was his partner, was old and his energy was inevitably low, and Yang Xiao consciously took on most of the things, and he had no free time, so he didn't even have time to go home to rest.

The compilation of scriptures is to be passed on to future generations, and it can be called a great event for thousands of generations. Zhao Yu entrusted such an urgent matter to Yang Xiao, he did not dare to have a trace of slackness, nearly a month of hard work, Rao is Yang Xiao's martial arts are profound, energetic, but also quite tired, described as withered. Originally, it was only the temples that were gray, but now the hair has turned gray.

On this day, Yang Xiao didn't go home for several days, and his daughter Yang Buregret sent people to urge him several times, asking him to take time to go home once. Therefore, after finishing the matter at hand early, he explained a few words to the subordinates of the Interpretation Bureau, and then rushed home in a horse-drawn carriage. It's not that Yang Xiao wants to learn to be pampered, but he really has no energy to walk in the car, besides, there are still a few problems that have been troubled for a long time in Jingyi, and he also has to take advantage of this time in the carriage to sort it out.

The coachman knows Yang Xiao's habits quite well, he is also from Mingjiao, and he respects Yang Xiao, a big man in the sect, from the bottom of his heart.

Yang Xiao leaned back in the flat carriage, closed his eyes and occasionally talked with the driver about the manager's teachings. Listen to the voices of ordinary people, but most of the time they are silent, closing their eyes and resting.

The carriage slowly stopped in front of the Yang Mansion, and before Yang Xiao got off the car, he heard the sound of brisk footsteps in the courtyard, the corners of his mouth curled, and he shook his spirits, and suppressed all the fatigue and laziness before he stepped off the carriage himself. Fang Yi stood still. A shadow floated out of the door. Yang Buregret, who had a happy face mixed with resentment, walked out of the door, ran to Yang Xiao, and said half-coquettishly and half-complaining: "Dad, you haven't been home for more than ten days! I'm afraid I have to forget what my daughter looks like!"

Yang Xiaolang laughed. Reach out and take your daughter into your arms. Ai said pitifully: "I only don't regret this pearl in my palm, I forget my appearance, and I can't forget what my good daughter looks like!"

Yang did not regret hearing this. With a sweet smile on his face, he couldn't help frowning when he saw Yang Xiao's sideburns adding a lot of gray hair and deeper wrinkles at the corners of his eyes: "What is Dad busy with, how can he make people look like this?"

Before Yang Xiao could answer, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, turned his head to look, and saw Zhao Yu and Yin Tianzheng walking together. With a happy look on his face, he turned around and hurried to meet him, and said with a smile: "When did the sect leader come back?" and the Eagle King, I haven't seen you for many days, you are getting tougher and tougher!"

Yin Tianzheng saw Yang Xiao's sudden appearance of old age, and couldn't help but be curious: "Yang Zuo, why do you seem to be suddenly more than ten years old?"

Zhao Yu knew what Yang Xiao's change was, and after sighing, he said: "Compiling the Catechism is a protracted matter, and there is no need to rush it. Yang Zuo envoy must take care of his body and not be tired. ”

Yang Xiao waved his hand and smiled: "What's it, compared to the past few decades of idleness and laziness on the top of the light, I now live a very fulfilling life." People in my generation are most afraid that there is nothing to do, if you really work hard, you will have a harvest, even if you are tired a little, you are also happy!"

Hearing that Yang Xiao, Yin Tianzheng, Wei Yixiao and other ordinary words, Zhao Yu was quite touched in his heart, and couldn't help sighing: "With your group of brave and loyal people leading the way, why don't Mingjiao worry about big things!"

Yang Xiao laughed a few times, and then asked, "The sect leader and the Eagle King came to my house, but what is the important matter?"

Zhao Yu nodded and said: "I really can't make up my mind about some things here, I want to discuss it with Yang Zuo, I don't know if Yang Zuo's eyes are inconvenient?"

Yang Buregret has always been a little afraid of Zhao Yu, seeing him coming, he hid behind his father with a worried face, after hearing this, his heart suddenly became unhappy and said: "Naturally, it is inconvenient! You assigned those hellish errands to my father, and you tired people like this, and they didn't even have time to go home! Now that you finally came back once, you chased after you again, do you want people to take a breath? Arrange everything to others, you yourself are idle, and you don't care whether others are tired or not!"

After Yang Xiao heard this, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't regret it, don't be rude to the sect leader!"

was severely reprimanded by his father, Yang Buregret suddenly felt aggrieved in his heart, his eyes turned red, and tears swirled in it.

Yin Tianzheng said with a smile: "Don't regret the girl, you misunderstood the sect leader." He is not idle, he has just subdued tens of thousands of Miao troops in Yangzhou almost single-handedly, and now he has just returned to Chuzhou, and he has not had time to go home. ”

When Yang Xiao heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in unison: "There is such a thing? I have been immersed in the pile of books, and I haven't even heard such a big thing! Come on, let's talk about it in detail after we enter the mansion!"

With that, he invited Zhao Yu and Yin Tianzheng into the mansion.

Yang stood in place without regret, but no one paid attention to her grievances, and became more and more sad for a while, tears rolled in her eyes a few times, stomped her feet, and ran to the backyard.

In the front hall of Yang's mansion, Yang Xiaozheng listened to Zhao Yu's talk about Yangzhou with great interest, and Yin Tianzheng also listened to it with relish, and when they heard the rise, both of them couldn't help but dance with their eyebrows, and high-fived and exclaimed: "When the time comes, heaven and earth will help! The seemingly unbreakable Jiangnan defense line was disintegrated by the sect leader so simply!"

Zhao Yu also nodded and said: "Therefore, the world seems to be difficult, but there is nothing to fear, only if you really try, can you know whether you can do it." ”

The three of them sat around the table, and during the chat, the leaders of the Ming Sect came to Yang Xiao's mansion one after another. After everyone sat down, Zhao Yu spoke: "I called everyone here today, there are a few things to discuss." First of all, the new canon compiled by Yang Zuo must have been read by everyone. I decided that from now on all missionary affairs of the Ming Church would be based on this new canon. Not only in Chuzhou and southern Anhui, I want to spread to the whole world in the shortest possible time. ”

Zhang Zhong nodded and said: "Although the new canon compiled by Yang Zuo has not yet been completely successful, after reading it, I am also quite impressed. ”

Monk Peng has a different opinion on this: "What I am worried about is that if this new canon only intendently moves closer to the Confucianism and Taoism, will it dilute and lose the original essence of our Mingjiao? Is it necessary to change our old catechesis so hastily and discard them so hastily as they are very popular in missionary work?"

As soon as his voice fell, Zhou Dian had already pointed at him and laughed: "Monk Peng, in the past, you were the most eager to preach and the most able to provoke people to make trouble, why did you become conservative this time? Isn't it that you are afraid that your old brain will not be familiar with the new canons, and you will forget to speak when you are preaching?"

Monk Peng ignored Zhou Dian's nonsense, and just looked at Zhao Yu and Yang Xiao, obviously with a case-by-case attitude, but not mixed with personal calculations.

If it was in the past, Yang Xiao was afraid that he would sneer when he heard someone questioning him, and then he walked away without even explaining. However, now that he is presiding over the compilation of the canon, his mood is much calmer than before, and when he heard Monk Peng's questioning, he said: "It is not surprising that Master Peng has this consideration. I am in charge of the compilation of the canon, and I have more understanding of the intentions of the sect leader than you, so I will tell you about it. ”

"Although these theories of our Mingjiao originated from the Persian Sect, to be honest, they have been passed down for hundreds of years, either due to different times or different circumstances, and have changed a lot compared to the original teachings. However, these changes are too arbitrary, there is no discipline at all, and they are not systematic. Moreover, because the missionaries may have selfish motives, they have modified it to become invisible, and have added many remarks and ideas of foolish men and fools, which cannot withstand scrutiny at all, and have increasingly hindered the development of our Enlightenment. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Xiao casually talked about some of the more absurd statements of missionaries in various places, such as if you sincerely believe in Mingzun, you can either be invulnerable, or you can open the valley and not die, and so on.

After everyone laughed, their brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

Yang Xiao added: "This kind of rhetoric is not just one or two individual examples, but is becoming more and more common. Especially in today's turmoil, the branches everywhere want to recruit more people to come to the church, so as to increase the number of people in the branches, or to cause trouble, or to protect themselves. There is no unified canonical theory, and many people with ulterior motives even use the tiger skin of our Mingjiao to make trouble, which has ruined the reputation of our Mingjiao more and more. ”

Yang Xiao's thoughts have been carefully thought out for a long time, and now they are very smooth to speak: "In addition to eliminating those overly mysterious and ethereal statements, the new canon also has some corrections to the fundamental doctrine. After all, this set is from Persia outside the territory, and many of its ideas do not match or even contradict our Middle-earth. This is also one of the reasons why our Mingjiao has not been recognized by the gentry for a long time. It is true that our Mingjiao aims to rescue those poor people who are living in dire straits, but this does not mean that joining Mingjiao must live a hard life. Therefore, we can't just focus on the bottom of this world, we must also look upward, and even have the courage to be at the top!"

"In addition, thanks to the blessing of our past grievances, the Ming Sect of Middle Earth is now divided, even if the sect leader has ascended the throne, there are still many ulterior motives such as Xu Shouhui and others who turn a blind eye to this. They are also pulling the banner of Mingjiao, but they are enemies of us. In addition to defeating Xu Shouhui on the battlefield, he also has to let the sect members under his rule understand that our Chuzhou is the orthodoxy of the Ming Sect, and our doctrine is the real doctrine!"

When Zhao Yu heard this, he couldn't help but nod secretly, Yang Xiao really understood his intentions and gave birth to his own opinions. Everyone also lowered their heads and pondered, digesting Yang Xiao's words, and had to admit in their hearts that compared with Yang Xiao, what they and others thought was indeed a little shallower than Yang Xiao.
