Chapter 1226: As Evil-Hearted as the Little Ancestor

Zhongqin Hall.

Qi Qian was sitting on the dragon chair. Below him were Lin Prime Minister Yu Lao and other important ministers. The other two were Taicheng Zhenren of Jinhua Temple and Master Huiquan of Jade Buddha Temple.

In view of the fact that the monks and Taoists who suddenly 'rebelled' in the middle of the journey were confusing the public with their monstrous words, which intensified the people's belief in the water god, they were also a little numb. Thinking of what Qin Liuxi once said, they had no choice but to invite these two people. Come and have a morning meeting together and listen to the voices of the officials.

Qi Qian and Prime Minister Lin also wanted to invite Qin Liuxi, but she seemed to have disappeared. I heard that she was in retreat. They had no choice but to invite these two. After all, the scale of Jinhua Temple and Jade Buddha Temple were both First of all, the Temple of the Emerald Buddha is a thousand-year-old temple, and countless saints come to visit it every year.

As for Taicheng Zhenren and Hui Quan, they are both accomplished people, and the temple behind them is very representative, so it would be a good idea to let them discuss it.

"The host and the real person heard it just now from behind the curtain. Nowadays, the number of people worshiping the water god is increasing day by day, and it has become a new sect. The new dynasty has just been established. What Dafeng needs is recuperation, not turmoil. I don't think it's Buddhism or Taoism. The two sects are not pleasing to the eye, and they are removed for selfish reasons. In fact, the ranks of the saints of this sect are constantly growing. If left unchecked, once someone with intentions incites the people, it will cause disaster. "

Master Taicheng and Hui Quan looked at each other and said, "To be fair to the saint, we have already understood that the water god did exist a hundred years ago, but today's water god has become an evil god."

Everyone's expressions changed.

Prime Minister Lin immediately thought of what Qin Liuxi said about the terrifying existence that wanted to tear down the sky.

Qi Qian frowned and said, "Can the evil god be eliminated?"

Taicheng Zhenren smiled bitterly and said: "Only Qingpingguan's Fuqiu Immortal Chang can get rid of her, but now she is in retreat, so it is inconvenient to disturb her."

Prime Minister Lin said: "Then there is nothing we can do to him?"

Master Huiquan clasped his hands together, recited Amitabha, and said: "The Water God Sect can absorb saints so quickly only because the people in our Buddhist path are determined to preach and guide."

Mr. Zuo said: "It is true. If it were not for the preaching of Buddhism and Taoism, everyone would not believe in this water god."

"That's right, you Buddhist and Taoist sects have unshirkable responsibilities, and you should clean up the sect forcefully." Someone also said this.

Master Huiquan said: "This is what the poor monk and the real person want to say. Anyone who rebels will be led back to the right path."

The monks who helped spread the word and believed in the water god were all bewitched by Siluo. It was their duty to lead him back to the right path.

"Yes, we will not sit idly by and ignore it." Taicheng Zhenren also said with certainty.

He wouldn't say more. When they seek political power, these officials think that the saints will lead to rebellion and turmoil when they grow stronger. But what they think of is that the more saints there are, the greater their will will be, and the harder it will be when the time comes. deal with.

"It's easy to lead them back to the right path. What if they end up on a dead end?"

The tone of this questioning made Master Taicheng frown and feel a little unhappy. Just as he was about to speak, there was movement in the void, and a slightly frivolous and uninhibited voice also sounded.

"Since you also know that it is a dead end, then just send them on their way. What's the problem?"

This sudden sound startled everyone.

Although Qi Qian was also shocked, he quickly recognized whose voice it was and calmed down quickly. He raised his hand to stop the secret guard from moving rashly.

Feng Xiu saw Qi Qian's movements, glanced at the corner of his mouth, and revealed his figure.

"Ah, protect, protect." The questioning minister almost fainted from fright, but he did not forget to show his loyalty and stumbled towards Qi Qian.

The other important ministers also stood in front of Qi Qian.

What kind of evil god can be more shocking and terrifying than this man who is as beautiful as a demon and seduces people's souls appearing out of thin air?

Qi Qian said, "No need to panic, sir. This is the owner of the Eternal Life Palace and a Taoist."

Master Taicheng and Master Huiquan bowed to Feng Xiu.

Feng Xiu nodded slightly as a greeting, then looked at the man just now and said, "Why are you panicking? I won't eat you."

Everyone: "..."

He looked at Taicheng Zhenren and said: "You shouldn't have told them so vaguely. If those traitors are really determined to die as he said, then let's fight to the death. Otherwise, we can fight to the death." , leaving them to help others do evil? "

Taicheng Zhenren laughed.

Master Huiquan was very obedient and didn't answer. I don't know where this fox came from. The evil spirit and evil spirit in his body were not gone. It's better not to mess with it.

Feng Xiu looked at Qi Qian again and said: "We as monks will naturally deal with those monks, but those believers will have to be dealt with by your court. Mortals have selfish motives, and as long as their lifeblood is grasped, all gods will be empty. . Pass on the instructions. The water god is an evil god who eats and transports souls. Anyone who worships him will suffer misfortune and is not allowed to worship. Anyone who refuses to destroy the statue within three days after seeing the announcement will be slapped with a blackboard or whipped for two times. Ten taels of silver and a fine of fifty taels of silver. If the fine is not paid, he will be sentenced to corvee service. In addition, the rewards and punishments are clear, and there will be rewards for reporting. If someone reports someone who worships the water god, he will be rewarded with ten taels of silver. Who do you think this imperial decree will be issued? Dare to confess?"

Everyone thought about it and found out that this strategy could be used.

Human nature is selfish. When it comes to your own interests, you must take care of yourself first. Look at the punishment first. How harsh it is. Even if you beat me, you still have to pay a fine of silver. What can you do with the money?

There is also the report, which is simply poisonous. A reward of ten taels of silver can be obtained by reporting and worshiping the water god. If you use it sparingly, your family can live a good year.

"Thank you for your advice, boss." Qi Qian saluted.

Feng Xiu waved his hand and said, "No need to thank me. This is a dirty trick that Yu Changkong came up with. I just met him on the way and passed on a message for him."

Qi Qian was a little surprised, and his heart was warm again.

"What if someone slanders others for the reward? In addition, Yuhang in Jiangnan is rich, and the most believers are the gentry and wealthy families, and there are officials to escort them. If they incite the people, won't there be chaos?" said the official who questioned it at the beginning.

Feng Xiu sneered: "Are you stupid? I'm not afraid of them moving, but I'm afraid they don't move. Your treasury is so poor that even poor ghosts can't stay. If the officials and wealthy businessmen in Yuhang in Jiangnan want to incite the people to make trouble, wouldn't it be a good opportunity to confiscate their homes on the charge of treason to solve the problem of the empty treasury? If you confiscate more, there will be silver in the treasury. Qi Qian, you are the emperor. Whoever you say is guilty is guilty. Why are you being polite?"

Qi Qian: "..."

Isn't this teaching me to be a tyrant?

Minister Qian immediately jumped out: "Your Majesty, I second the proposal!"

This move is much better than selling the saint's concubines.

Everyone looked puzzled, but they also bowed: "I second the proposal."

Taicheng Zhenren glanced at Feng Xiu and thought, "If you keep company with the good, you will be good. If you keep company with the bad, you will be bad." I believe this, and I have the same evil heart as that little ancestor! (End of this chapter)
