Ji Haodian has a lot of trust in Su Xin. This trust started when Su Xin snatched the Human Emperor Sword for him in the Kunlun Secret Realm.
Although the Great Zhou has now established a country and its own foundation is considered stable, and strong men such as Tie Ao of the six doors and Lin Zongyue of the military are also in their prime, but this does not mean that the Great Zhou does not need a new generation Therefore, Su Xin is the hero of the new generation that Ji Haodian plans to cultivate vigorously.
It's just that training belongs to training, but Ji Haodian will not allow Su Xin to mess around.
Although Su Xin's plan looks fine on the surface, what if Tantra loses?
So Ji Haodian asked directly: "What should you do if the Tantrism loses? After several calculations, the Shaolin Temple took advantage of it."
Looking at Ji Haodian, Su Xin sneered in his heart.
This His Majesty the Emperor is actually very selfish, as can be seen from his attitude towards his sons.
He would rather choose an obedient son than a capable son, because he is still sitting on this dragon chair.
In fact, whether the Xijiang Tantric Sect wins or loses has nothing to do with him, but according to the bet, the Xijiang Tantric Sect will withdraw from the Central Plains. In this case, who will help Ji Haodian study the secret of the white jade slab?
Now those strong men of the Western Xinjiang Esoteric School have also proved that they are indeed capable of helping Ji Haodian research the secret of the white jade slab, so even if they use each other, Ji Haodian is also reluctant to part with them now.
Su Xin smiled and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry about this. We will not violate the content of the bet. Western Xinjiang Tantra will withdraw from the Central Plains, but our Great Zhou can also go to Western Xinjiang to recruit monks and become the state religion of my Great Zhou!"
Looking at Ji Haodian, Su Xin slowly said: "Your Majesty, Tantra is only cooperating with us now, and the two sides are actually standing on an equal footing.
But if Tantra is defeated by Shaolin Temple, then they will be able to feel how big the gap is between themselves and Shaolin Temple, and they will find another way if we don't say it.
At this time, if we take action to recruit him as the state religion, then it is not a cooperation between the two parties. The esoteric sect must submit to me, Da Zhou, otherwise they will lose even the last hope of counterattacking Shaolin Temple and fighting for the orthodoxy. "
Hearing Su Xin's words, Ji Haodian's eyes lit up immediately, which he really didn't expect.
The state religions conferred by the dynasties of the Central Plains have always been extremely powerful, and even the dynasties must join forces with them if they want peace in the world, so as to ensure peace in the world.
After the first dynasty, both the Daoist sect and the Buddhist sect had been the state religion of a certain dynasty, and that was when they were at their strongest.
Therefore, later generations have entered into a misunderstanding. As long as any dynasty canonize the state religion, it must be the result of a compromise between the power of the sect and the power of the dynasty, and the dynasty without the state religion is the truly powerful existence.
Now that Su Xin said this, Ji Haodian only realized it. Why must these sects be made the state religion when they are strong, but not when they are weaker?
The current Dazhou can have such a powerful scene all because of Ji Haodian's decentralization.
But he didn't delegate power indiscriminately, otherwise Dazhou would have split up long ago. What Ji Haodian did was to turn Dazhou into a collection of interests. Everyone is not fighting for you, Ji Haodian, but for Dazhou. Fight for your own interests.
The six doors have the interests of the six doors, and the military also has the interests of the military. Naturally, the Royal Enshrining Hall has more interests in the Royal Enshrining Hall.
At this time, if someone dared to provoke Da Zhou, it would be provoking everyone's interests, so everyone would attack with all their strength without any scruples.
Su Xin is like this now, backed by Da Zhou, at least there are very few forces who dare to provoke him on the surface,
Even his subordinates actually came here for his status as a powerful person.
Even now, Su Xin can guarantee that as long as he dares to show his identity in the underworld to openly rebel against Da Zhou, it would be good if one tenth of his subordinates can continue to be loyal to him.
So even Su Xin himself is a member of this combination of interests, and he will naturally safeguard the interests of Da Zhou when necessary.
And with the characteristics of the Great Zhou, there is no problem at all in turning Western Xinjiang Esoteric Buddhism into the state religion of the Great Zhou.
Anyway, Dazhou already has so many interest groups, and it would not be a big deal to add a Western Xinjiang esoteric sect.
Although there is one more predator, but with the addition of Xijiang Esoteric Sect, their Da Zhou's power is stronger, and they can naturally lay down more foundations, so it will not be a disadvantage.
Ji Haodian looked at Su Xin with eyes full of appreciation.
In fact, what Ji Haodian admired most about Su Xin was not his strength but Su Xin's methods.
After all, what the Great Zhou lacked most were strong men. There were not many but definitely many Yang God Realm existences in the Royal Consecration Hall. Among them, there was even Zhao Wunian who was at the True Martial Realm, and Su Xin was no less than a God Fusion Realm existence.
However, Su Xin's unconstrained style of doing things made Ji Haodian admire very much. Some seemingly impossible plans were placed in Su Xin's hands, but they could go on normally. This is also a kind of skill.
Anyway, no matter what kind, as long as Su Xin has the ability.
But Ji Haodian still looked at Su Xin with a half-smile and said, "Your strategy is definitely good, but you are playing word games with Shaolin Temple.
It is said in the Jianghu that you, Su Xin, keep your word, so you are not afraid that your reputation will be rotten in the Jianghu from now on? Even Shaolin Temple will hate you to the bone. "
Su Xin smiled indifferently: "Reputation doesn't matter whether it's good or bad, as long as it spreads far enough and is strong enough.
As for whether Shaolin Temple will hate me to the bone, this minister is really not worried.
Shaolin Temple wants to hate it to the bone, so they can hate it to the bone, anyway, they don't dare to directly enter Shengjing City to ask me for justice.
And literally speaking, there is nothing wrong with it. The Western Xinjiang Esoteric School has indeed never set foot in the Central Plains. The people recruited by His Majesty are all the state religions of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but they were originally from the Esoteric School.
Besides, there is no Tantra anymore, only the state religion of the Great Zhou! "
Hearing Su Xin's words, Ji Haodian nodded in satisfaction. Su Xin completed the last plan, which even involved himself, so Ji Haodian was very relieved of Su Xin.
But at this time Ji Haodian suddenly said: "Su Xin, in fact, your calculation is the most beneficial to you, right?
If the Tantric people win, you can get the secret exercises from Shaolin Temple.
But the people from Shaolin Temple won, and the people from Tantric Sect went back to Western Xinjiang in despair. In the end, even if they became the state religion, they would not dare to be so arrogant. Su Xin is the one who ultimately makes a profit. "
Although Ji Haodian believed in Su Xin, he also planned to train Su Xin, but he had to find a chance to beat Su Xin.
Otherwise, he was worried that one day Su Xin would really swell to the point where he dared to plot against himself, the emperor, and Ji Haodian would never allow such a thing.
It's just that Su Xin's face remained unchanged at this time and said: "Your Majesty, although I have some selfishness, no matter how I calculate, it is also for the sake of Da Zhou. If Da Zhou makes a profit, as long as I can follow behind and drink a sip of soup, it is enough gone."
Ji Haodian nodded in satisfaction, not to mention the truth of what he said, but his attitude was very correct.
Anyway, no matter what Su Xin's plan is, as long as he can benefit Ji Haodian and Da Zhou, that's enough.
"Tang Xian, according to the decree, I cannot personally act as the middleman between the two factions, so I entrust the great general Lin Zongyue and my emperor uncle Ji Xuanyuan to replace me as the middleman in this game.
Tang Xian used his pen like flying. After Ji Haodian had just finished speaking, his imperial edict had also been written.
After Ji Haodian stamped his big seal, he said to Tang Xian, "You can go with Su Xin, so that I can write down all the process of this battle and tell me."
Tang Xian saluted and said, "Old slave obeys orders."
Holding the imperial decree, Tang Xian went out of the palace to invite Lin Zongyue and Ji Xuanyuan to come with him.
On the way, Tang Xian said to Su Xin with a smile: "Master Su is really good at it. In the blink of an eye, Shaolin Temple and Esoteric Buddhism were calculated by you. I guess they won't even be in the mood to cry later."
Su Xin shook his head and said: "Eunuch Tang's words are wrong. Although I calculated them, it was because of the life-and-death enmity between Xijiang Tantric Sect and Shaolin Temple. It just fueled the flames a little bit."
Hearing Su Xin's words, Tang Xian curled his lips in secret, adding fuel to the flames? You obviously think they didn't die fast enough!
It's just that Tang Xian didn't say this, the current Su Xin is no longer the Su Xin who took the initiative to impress him and make friends with Tang Xian.
The current Su Xin is a hot rookie in the imperial court, a celebrity in the eyes of His Majesty, even if Tang Xian feels a little uncomfortable with Su Xin, he can only treat him in a different way.
"Master Su, speaking of it, our family would like to thank you very much. If it wasn't for your suggestions in Shengjing City, we might not be able to keep the strength of our family." Tang Xian cupped his hands at Su Xin.
With so much power in Shengjing City, the presence of those big insiders in Tang Xian's hands is relatively low, so that even Ji Haodian slightly underestimated those powers, and even thought of abolishing them.
Later, it was Su Xin who suggested that Tang Xian take the initiative to attack and not let his group of people eat nothing, which saved the power in his hands.
Otherwise, no matter how sharp the knife is out of its sheath, it will be a piece of scrap iron.
The most important thing is that the incident in the Kunlun Secret Realm caused all the princes to lose power, which made Tang Xian heave a sigh of relief.
After all, with his status, if the new emperor takes office, he is very likely to be purged.
So from this point of view, he still has to thank Su Xin.
It's just that Su Xin knew that the old eunuch was not a good guy, and he was not a member of any faction in the court, so he only relied on the emperor to consider his own interests.
Regardless of whether they were allies or anything else, if he really hindered the old eunuch's interests, he would definitely stab himself mercilessly.
