The Tang Dynasty started from saving Empress Changsun

Chapter 327 Old Fox and Little Fox

Originally, Chen Jingke wanted to ask how to do it, but Sun Simiao directly rejected him:
"I have devoted my whole life to medical skills, and the rest of my time has been spent studying Taoism. I have not done much research on these intrigues."

"Being able to see through many schemes is only based on decades of experience. It's beyond my power to think about how to fight."

Hearing this, Chen Jingke couldn't help thinking that if it wasn't for him, the master would have traveled freely around the world to study medicine.

The lofty status, the status of Taoist leader, the title of medical saint, all of them are dreams for others, but for him it is just a bondage.

But for his own sake, he still stepped into this quagmire and tried his best to maintain the situation.

Thinking of this, his moved eyes were moist, and he said with a choked voice: "Master, it's all my fault that made you jump into this quagmire and be unable to do what you like."

Sun Simiao was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect him to be so sentimental, he was also very moved while being funny, and said:
"Don't think too much, we are masters and apprentices as well as father and son, we should do everything for each other, besides, your new medical skills have brought me into the door of new medicine."

"You have another sentence that is very reasonable. The rapid progress of medical technology requires the collective efforts. The new medical technology can achieve so many breakthroughs so quickly, it is inseparable from the joint efforts of everyone."

"So Zixiao Temple doesn't restrict me. On the contrary, I like it very much. You don't have to feel guilty."

"I just told you what I just wanted to tell you. I am old and my abilities are limited. I can no longer help you with many things."

The stone in Chen Jingke's heart was slightly removed, and he said: "It is the greatest help for me that you always sit here. Without your mighty power, no one will listen to me."

Sun Simiao laughed and said, "Then I'll be a sitting tiger for you."

Then he said sternly: "In the future, if you have anything to discuss with Shu Er first, if you are really undecided, go to the palace and ask your empress... Remember, you are asking what your empress wants, not a saint."

Chen Jingke naturally understood what he meant, and said, "I see, I'll discuss it with Shu Er later."

Sun Simiao urged a few more words, and said, "Go, come up with a charter as soon as possible while all the head teachers are here."

……

Coming out of Sun Simiao, Chen Jingke went straight to Wu Shu to discuss the matter with her.Not long after he walked, he saw Tian Shiwen standing in front of him and making a please gesture to him.

This gave him a headache, he didn't expect the other party to be so impatient.But it was impossible for him to give any answer without discussing with Wu Shu and the others.

But since everyone is waiting here, he can't go if he doesn't go, he can only walk over helplessly, and said helplessly: "Guanzhu Tian, ​​haste makes waste."

Tian Shiwen said sternly: "I know, this is not to force the real person to give an answer, but to explain my opinion to you. I will leave after I finish speaking. The choice is entirely up to the real person."

Everyone has talked about this, and Chen Jingke can't refuse, saying: "Okay, the real person please follow me."

As he spoke, he took him directly to Wu Shu's yard.

As the third person in Zixiao Temple, Wu Shu naturally has a special Taoist boy to serve him in daily life.

Chen Jingke was afraid that she was doing something private, so he asked the Taoist boy guarding the door: "Is the lady in there?"

Daotong quickly replied: "My lady is studying in the study."

Chen Jingke nodded and said: "Let the lady come to the lobby to meet me, just say there are guests."

"Here." Dao Tong responded and went to the study.

Only then did Chen Jingke lead Tian Shiwen to the lobby.

Tian Shiwen was thoughtful. As the center of Taoism, Zixiao Temple was watched by countless people.

There were rumors before that Sun Simiao asked the Wu family's wife to be his daughter-in-law because he liked her mind and asked her to assist Chen Jingke.

Now it seems that the rumors are true.

What surprised him even more was that this real Chen didn't feel ashamed, and allowed her to participate in such an important matter openly and aboveboard.

Should he be said to be broad-minded, or should he be thick-skinned enough?
If Chen Jingke knew what he was thinking, he would definitely say: Shit, no matter how powerful she is, she is still my wife. The more powerful she is, the more sense of accomplishment I will have.You male chauvinists simply can't appreciate the fun of this.

The two sat down as the guest of honor, and the Taoist immediately served tea.

After a while, Wu Shu came slowly. It was obvious that she had been dressed up a lot, and she looked very dignified and elegant.

Even if he appreciates it every day, Chen Jingke can't help but look at it a few more times.I thought to myself, Sister Wu's make-up skills are really strong, she has a different make-up almost every day.

Especially when eating peaches, you can change several sets in one night.The key is that each set is just right and beautiful.

Wu Shu should have known from Daotong that the guest was Tian Shiwen in advance, so he was not surprised.He greeted the other party very politely, and sat down beside Chen Jingke.

Chen Jingke didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "Tian Guanzhu hopes that we will publish Journey to the West soon, what do you think, Shuer?"

Wu Shu frowned, and asked, "Oh, I don't know why Guanzhu Tian has such an idea?"

Tian Shiwen did not dare to underestimate this young girl who has just passed her age. There are many versions of various legends about her.But no matter which version she is, she is a person with far more scheming than ordinary people.

The key is that she can fully represent Sun Simiao and Chen Jingke. Unless these two people are taken seriously, no one can despise her.

"The first reason I have just said is that now is the best time. If you miss this opportunity, you will have to wait a few years later."

Wu Shu glanced at Chen Jingke, and seeing that he had no intention of speaking, he knew that he was completely letting go and letting himself do what he wanted.

There was a sense of sweetness in my heart, but I asked calmly on my face, "Why?"

Seeing this, Tian Shiwen knew that the target of his lobbying today was this girl, and he couldn't help but feel a little headache.

He has been in contact with Chen Jingke, and he knows that this little real person has a relatively simple mind and is easier to persuade.

His understanding of the girl in front of him was limited to hearsay, and he really didn't know if the rhetoric he had prepared before was useful.

It can be said that Chen Jingke's unconscious behavior disrupted his plan.

He knew the outline of the story of Journey to the West, and it would not be difficult to find a few good novel writers to write a story about Journey to the West.

The problem is, even if the Zixiao temple doesn't blame him, the damage it can do to Buddhism is limited only by his ability of the corridor temple.

Journey to the West is just a weapon, the person who uses this weapon is the most important.

His Taoist Temple is just one of the many branches of Taoism, and the only one who can use it is the power of his own family.

And Zixiao Temple is the center of Taoism, they have the ability to mobilize the power of the entire Taoism to attack Buddhism.

As the leader, Sun Simiao handed over the power to his disciple Chen Jingke, and Chen Jingke handed over the power to the girl.

So even though he is the head teacher of Lou Guan Dao, who is famous all over the world, he has to let go of his status and patiently explain to the other party.

"Our purpose is to fight against the status of Buddhism in the Central Plains, especially in the minds of nobles."

"The best time to attack is to choose a time when it seems that you have nothing to do with the dignitaries."

"At this time, anyone watching this battle is purely a dispute between Taoism, Buddhism, and Huayi. Whoever says something makes sense, those onlookers will be biased towards whom."

"What's more, I, the Great Tang, worshiped Taoism. In this war, we are inherently invincible."

At this point he paused, seeing that Wu Shu didn't express anything, he could only continue to say: "When the imperial court announces the specific entrustment regulations, the Taoist and Buddhist families will inevitably fight for the missionary rights of the vassal states."

"If we make a move at this time, the nobles will definitely think that we are fighting Buddhism in order to snatch the right to preach."

"The princes and kings are unwilling to see a situation where one family dominates. In order to make their rule more stable, they will inevitably introduce Taoism and Buddhism to their countries to preach."

"The more intense we fight with Buddhism, the less the princes and kings will be biased towards either side... The original intention of the real person writing Journey to the West will be greatly reduced."

"So, if the real person still wants to complete the original plan, he must do it now, or wait until the enfeoffment is temporarily over."

Chen Jingke nodded slightly. This explanation is similar to Sun Simiao's, and it seems to be true.But he didn't say anything, since he handed everything over to Wu Shu, he had to trust her and let her take care of it.

Wu Shu thought for a while and agreed: "Tian Guanzhu is right, but you are wrong about one thing. My real person's wish to reform and revitalize Taoism has already been fulfilled, Journey to the West is optional."

Tian Shiwen smiled wryly in his heart, he had known for a long time that Miss Wu was difficult to deal with, as expected, the ability to tell lies with eyes open was really skillful.

What wish has been fulfilled a long time ago, what Journey to the West is optional, if he hadn't talked with Chen Jingke the first time, he would have believed it.

But still that sentence, he couldn't deny it.

And he knew better that Wu Shu said this not to reject him, but to facilitate the negotiation of terms.

But he must not be able to give up the initiative so easily, he tried his best to lobby and said: "I have memorized the Chinese civilization of the real person, and I agree with you very much for the idea of ​​Great China."

"Buddhism is a foreign pagan religion. The momentum to suppress it and drive them out of the Central Plains is to promote Chinese culture. Even if Buddhism cannot be completely expelled, they must be forced to bow their heads and actively integrate into Chinese civilization."

"Instead of letting foreign paganism rampantly deceive the people as it is now... In the long run, where is my Huaxia?"

Wu Shu nodded, seemed a little moved, but still said: "Although that is the case, it is of great importance to promote the Chinese thought and expel foreign pagan religions, and there is nothing I can do with my Zixiao view."

"Besides, I, Zixiao, is weak and weak, and I can't afford the counterattack of Buddhism. Although my real family has the intention of revitalizing China, I, a woman from a Taoist family, don't have such lofty ideals. I just want to protect this family business. "

Tian Shiwen cheered up, and said: "Zixiao Temple is the leader of my Taoism. Anyone who dares to disrespect is disrespecting Taoism. My Zongsheng Temple is the first to refuse."

"I, Lou Guan Dao, would like to be the pioneer in suppressing Buddhism. Anyone who wants to harm Zixiao Temple should step over my Lou Guan Dao's corpse first."

Wu Shu shook his head and said, "Guanzhu Tian also knows that Buddhism is powerful, and you and I alone cannot shake them."

Tian Shiwen immediately said: "My Taoism is not weaker than Buddhism, and the Tang Dynasty respects my religion..."

"As long as two real people raise their arms and call out, there will be a crowd of responders. At that time, Buddhism will be no more than a chicken wag, and it can be broken with a few fingers."

Wu Shu smiled softly: "Tian Guanzhu said it lightly. There are many sects of my Taoism, each of which has its own ideas. How can I easily obey the orders of two real people?"

"If a real person stands up, I'm afraid it will not be a gathering of responders, but a rafter in the early days."

"I still say the same thing, I'm a woman and I just want to keep this family business well, as long as I'm worthy of the ancestors of the Sun family."

After that, no matter how Tian Shiwen tried to persuade her, she still refused to agree.

Chen Jingke couldn't help but want to interrupt and agree several times. To be honest, he was really persuaded by Tian Shiwen.But out of trust in Wu Shu, they all held back and said nothing.

In the end, Tian Shiwen had no choice but to say goodbye and leave.

After Chen Jingke sent him out of the small courtyard, he hurried back to find Wu Shu who was drinking tea leisurely, and asked, "Sister Wu, what kind of charades were you two playing just now?"

Wu Shu said with a smile: "Yo, my real family can see that they are playing charades, and they have made great progress."

Chen Jingke ran up to her angrily, stretched out his hand to hold her pretty face and rubbed it fiercely a few times, looked down at her and said viciously: "Believe it or not, I rubbed your pretty face into a big face."

"Puff haha..." He laughed loudly.

Smiling, she reached out and hugged his waist, buried her head on his stomach, and said softly, "I don't want it, I'm so scared."

The girl Huaichun, in fact, enjoys this kind of intimacy even more than Chen Jingke.

The two laughed and played for a while before sitting down again, and Wu Shu tried to put the messy headgear back in place.But without a mirror, I failed a few times, so I took it off and threw it on the table.

Then he explained to him: "I know what you think, and I also know that Journey to the West is not only about the struggle between Taoism and Buddhism, but also the sage's plan. It will be a matter of time before it is published."

"But Buddhism is so powerful that no one dares to say that it will be able to withstand their fierce counterattack, and Zixiao Temple can't do it either. The best way is to find a few more to share the pressure."

"But lobbying various schools to attack Buddhism is a thankless task, and it will even be attacked by Buddhism the most violently."

"Don't look at the awe-inspiring righteousness that Guanzhu Tian said just now, but from the beginning to the end, he never said that he would lobby all factions, but encouraged us to be the rafters."

"Of course I won't agree. To keep refusing is to force him to be the rafter."

Chen Jingke suddenly realized: "So that's the case, I'll tell you why you always disagree. Guanzhu Tian is indeed an old fox. He is obviously the most anti-Buddhist in Louguan Taoism, so he asked us to block the gun for him."

Then he grabbed her hand, kneaded it lightly, and said, "Our family Shu'er is the smartest, so he won't be fooled by him at all."

……

On the other side, Tian Shiwen returned to his guest room.

Li Chunfeng, who was already waiting for him here, smiled and said, "Guanzhu Tian, ​​how are you?"

Tian Shiwen sat down opposite him, and praised: "Ms. Wu really lives up to her reputation, I have learned the lesson."
