Fast Travel: A Record of Unusual Creatures

Jiahe Palace, inside the pilgrimage hall.

After all, the country is small, and Qu Jie also pays more attention to the people's livelihood than to the office space, so the specific scale and grandeur of it must not be compared with the Zichen Palace and the Great Hall of Government Affairs, which is only one-third the size.

But it's okay to have a meeting.

After the Bailian saintess and others finished their ceremony and took their seats, Qu Jie said bluntly: "I want to make the White Lotus Sect the state religion of my daughter, Bailian saintess, what do you think?"

For Saint White Lotus and the others, these words were a bit too sudden, something they had never thought of before, so it was naturally difficult to answer them for a while.

After a long time, the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus replied cautiously:
"It would be a great thing if my White Lotus Sect could become the daughter's state religion founded by you, the Holy Mother, but I am a little worried that I will not be able to do it. After all, during this period of time, the elders and I have not only visited many places in the daughter's country, but also After a rough understanding of the legal provisions of the Daughter Country, many aspects are consistent with the teachings of the White Lotus.

There seems to be a huge difference..."

"It's okay, it's not appropriate, just change it.

Before becoming the national religion of my daughter's country, the White Lotus Sect first revised the scriptures and doctrines, and everything was based on the laws of my daughter's country as the standard outline, and it was properly filled without violating the laws of my daughter's country.

In this way, you don't have to worry about being incompetent! "

Qu Jie didn't give Saint White Lotus a chance to politely refuse, and directly showed her plans. But excluding factors such as interests, what she said was right. If it's not suitable, just change it. Just change it until it's suitable. It's quite reasonable. !
It's just that the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus was a little speechless for a while, and if it wasn't for her scruples, she would have rolled her eyes and scolded Qu Jie for being shameless. Fortunately, she was quite witty and didn't dare to tear herself apart with Qu Jie, so she could only bear this tone and said :
"Holy Mother, the doctrine has been passed down for thousands of years..."

"Do you think that if Confucius came to the world, he would open his mouth and criticize the mistakes in the Analects compiled and summarized by his disciples.

So is the Analects wrong or Confucius wrong? "

Qu Jie did not speak directly about herself, but the meaning of her words was quite clear. The status of her, the Holy Mother of the White Lotus, in the White Lotus Sect is theoretically equivalent to the status of Confucius in Confucianism. It was compiled by the saint and the believers in the sect. The teachings that came out are actually basically equivalent to the Analects of Confucianism summarized and compiled by Confucius' disciples.

How to speculate and discuss.

It is also impossible for the Analects to override Confucius himself.

Naturally, the teachings of the White Lotus Sect cannot override her, the Holy Mother of the White Lotus of the White Lotus Sect. She said that was not right.

That is naturally wrong.

As soon as these words come out, if the picture is a cartoon at this time, it must be accompanied by a brain-filling picture of the white lotus maiden vomiting blood. In reality, although the white lotus maiden did not vomit blood, there is no doubt that the whole person is energetic Suddenly collapsed, his face turned blue and purple, and he was about to die of anger.

If someone was older, he might have a cerebral hemorrhage or a stroke, and it is not impossible to die suddenly on the spot.

Now she just regrets, regrets to death.

I regret that I have led wolves into my house...

If she had known that Princess Jiahe would not be the Holy Mother of the White Lotus back then, she thought that Princess Jiahe was a good guy, and she really lost control. It is reasonable for Princess Jiahe to die suddenly at such an age. Heaven.

But who would have thought that this guy is just a sheep in wolf's clothing. No, a wolf in sheep's clothing. That's not right. He is a glutton in pig's skin. He is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger with them. The overall situation is... It can be said that from the day the Virgin of the White Lotus came to earth, she began to lose control.

After that, it was a rampage all the way.

Derailed completely, I don't know where to go?

During the process, it's not that the Holy Maiden of Bailian never thought of killing Princess Jiahe, that is, Qu Jie, but she sent an assassin there the day before, and that night, no, she woke up the next morning, and the assassin's head was concocted and released. Who can bear the feeling of fear in his own pillow?
Since the other party was able to quietly place the assassin's head on her pillow, he could also quietly remove her head while she was asleep.

After being frightened like this, Saintess Bailian and the others no longer dared to think about killing Qu Jie, and only hoped to maintain their rights through other means.

Until today, Qu Jie had a complete showdown.

It is said that the White Lotus Sect is to be listed as the state religion, but if the price of being listed as the state religion is that all the rules of the White Lotus Sect must follow the legal provisions of the Daughter Kingdom, it is undoubtedly equivalent to directly annexing the White Lotus Sect, including the White Lotus Sect and those elders. , also have to abide by the law of the daughter country.

This is the real bottom line.

Completely incorporated.

Seeing that the scene was a bit stiff, Qu Jie suddenly chuckled, and her tone became a little gentler, and continued:
"Ha~, does the saint have any comments?"

"Do you feel that the lives of the people in my daughter's country are not as good as you imagined, or do you think that the teachings of the White Lotus Sect are perfect, even higher than my White Lotus Virgin, or, do you want to apostate? Abandon the deity?"

Although Qu Jie's tone was milder, her words were actually sharper. After all, the White Lotus Sect is a religious organization anyway. It is not a serious crime for any religious organization to betray their belief in the Lord God or apostasy. The Dharma Protector Heavenly King pursued and killed him.

The words of the White Lotus Sect are actually similar.

"Holy Mother, I have no objection, I was just too happy just now, it's unbelievable!"

I know that my status in the White Lotus Sect is far lower than that of Qu Jie, and the right to speak is not as great as that of Qu Jie. If Qu Jie insists that she is apostate, most of the congregation will really ask for her to be executed, and they don't want to die. The white lotus saint could only suppress the anger in her heart, almost gnashing her teeth and ignoring her conscience, and said these words.

At the same time, my heart is constantly comforting myself.

I am still young, I am not yet 60 years old this year, and Princess Jiahe is nearly [-] years old. I will definitely be able to survive her and survive her to death, as long as my identity as a saint remains unchanged, and Princess Jiahe will die of old age.

She's sure to be able to regain power.

Maybe even the daughter country will be hers in the future.

It wasn't until this point that the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus calmed down a little, and finally she was able to face Qu Jie calmly again, and after that, she was very obedient and cooperative, and agreed to all Qu Jie's unreasonable demands.

Because she had already made a new plan in her heart.

That is, we must be obedient in the future, and never let Qu Jie find any chance to abolish her status as a saint.

And as long as her status as a saint is still there, even if she temporarily loses power and her rights are divided, as long as she kills Princess Jiahe, the future will still have a bright future.

It is precisely because of this kind of hope, or comforting herself with this possibility, that the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus accepted all the subsequent agreements so calmly, and also coordinated with the elders who originally obeyed her to cooperate in revising the doctrine of the White Lotus Sect. The purpose, the internal organizational structure, prepares for becoming the state religion of the daughter country.

More than a month later, the court's conquest navy encountered extreme thunderstorms during its voyage and suffered heavy losses. It was the third day after more than 1 soldiers were rescued by Qu Jie.

The White Lotus Saint and the elders of the White Lotus Sect.

Finally, according to Qu Jie's instructions.

After modifying the teachings of the White Lotus Sect, the internal organizational structure and other aspects to conform to the legal provisions of the Daughter Country and to the extent that Qu Jie was satisfied, Qu Jie reviewed it carefully and found that there was nothing wrong with it.

So he formally decreed that the White Lotus Sect would be the state religion of the Daughter Kingdom, and promulgated new teachings along the way.

Although the White Lotus Sect has brought a lot of help to Qu Jie in recent years, a religion that is preached secretly is an unstable factor after all. Instead of letting them preach in secret all the time, it is better to directly control it on the surface, which is safer , and proper modification of its teachings, while providing spiritual sustenance to the people, it can also use the new teachings of the White Lotus Sect to guide the ideology to reshape the three views and concepts for the people.

It is equivalent to engaging in an alternative national ideological education.

Of course, all of these need to be done slowly and subtly, and no immediate effect will be seen in the short term.

The only relatively direct change is that Qu Jie divided the top management of the White Lotus Sect into two parts. Some of them were not so devout, but trusted Qu Jie and had good abilities. Other things are glowing and hot.

The other part is still in the White Lotus Sect.

They are not allowed to intervene in any government affairs and affairs other than the White Lotus Sect, and only concentrate on spreading new teachings.

It is a proper separation of church and state.

After doing this, Qu Jie was able to hold the second Daughter's Kingdom Political Research Conference with confidence, and put forward a dozen topics at the meeting, which were analyzed and researched one after another.

Discuss solutions.

The first political seminar of the Daughter's Kingdom should be called, to be precise, a seminar to prepare for the establishment of the Daughter's Kingdom. At that time, Qu Jie had not yet rebelled. The main participants in the meeting were her close associates, and the content of the meeting only included three points. , the first is to discuss how to rebel, the second is to discuss how to retreat, and the third is to discuss how to build a country.

Preparation and construction of Jiahe Island.

Basically, it is done according to the results of the original discussion.

Now the Daughter Kingdom is basically considered a success, with a population foundation and so on, so the second Daughter Kingdom Political Research Conference should naturally be held.

And aiming at the future development, resisting the invasion of the big army, the continued introduction of the population, the popularization of education, the training of the daughter country, the queen and the queen, etc., conduct more in-depth research and study, and set a plan for the next few years.

The political seminar lasted for half a month.

A dozen issues, item by item, gradually have solutions, or the latest plan.

For example, to resist the invasion of the Dagan navy, the current plan mainly lies in two points. One is the beheading tactic, as far as possible, only attack the leader of the opponent, so that the opponent has no leader, so as to avoid greater conflicts. When necessary, killers can be sent directly. Get the general by the sea.

The second is that if it is really impossible and the other party really calls, then try to cover them with firepower and prevent them from landing. Everything is given priority to protecting the safety of the people of the Daughter Country, and the officers and men should be in the back row.

Another example is the continuous introduction of population, which is to continue to send a small number of Bailian sect members back to Dagan territory, use other identities as a cover, and try to gather abandoned baby girls, sold daughters or wives, etc. If a large-scale famine occurs in a certain place and there is no one to relieve the disaster, the victims can also be gathered appropriately.

But generally speaking, we need to keep a low profile. We can't directly rebel like before, destroy the gentry, and take a large number of people away.

As for the popularization of education, it can be confused with the cultivation of the empress dowager. In order to save time, Qu Jie specially compiled a whole set, or it can’t be said that she compiled it, but she picked a set from the portable cave that she thought was more suitable. Textbooks, and after making appropriate revisions, directly take it out for my granddaughter and the people.

The difference is nothing more than that her granddaughter, the empress dowager, needs to learn a lot more than ordinary people.

If the Kingdom of Daughters wants to continue, at least three or five generations of empresses need to work hard. If only Qu Jie’s generation is the only one, the future result is likely to be the same as the Great Zhou created by Wu Zetian, and the status of women may not be improved.

It will also be suppressed and so on.

Or be taken away by others.

If Wu Zetian had succeeded Princess Taiping, and Princess Taiping would have passed down three or two generations of empresses, and the empresses would have ruled for more than a hundred years, history would have taken another different direction.

So there is the issue of the education of the princess.

Absolutely top priority.

The latest plan is that the empress dowager will be taught by Qu Jie herself, while teaching, she will also get in touch with government affairs and get to know her gradually, until one day she will become a qualified empress of the kingdom of daughters.

With the conclusion of the [-]nd Daughter Country Political Research Conference, the next step is of course implementation. According to the original plan, the newly established major government agencies are engaged in education, education, development, and expansion of territory. Quartet's battle in all directions.

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

Thriving and flourishing.

Even those sailors who were rescued, because of their gratitude for saving their lives, and the temptation of Qu Jie's promise of three taels of silver a month to capture the useful land of other islands outside and obtain one-tenth of the total land ownership, became Non-staff mercenaries to help in the battle.

Originally, Qu Jie let the old, weak, sick and disabled under her command use relatively high-end weapons to attack those savages or tribes. , as well as various drugs, are definitely a proper dimensionality reduction strike plus, so the end result is naturally that the efficiency is greatly increased, and the population is not enough in less than a year, and the place is too big to manage.

We can only allocate fields to those soldiers first, each at least a few hundred acres, and some can have thousands of acres, tens of thousands of acres, and then there is no need for Qu Jie to secretly encourage them. Take over your relatives, even relatives and the like.

Otherwise, they would not be able to plant so much land.

There are too few local people and so much land that we can’t grow our own land. Who would be someone else’s farmer? Even with the help of machinery, it is difficult for one person to work on thousands of acres of land, let alone those who have People with tens of thousands of acres of land, while those with only a few hundred acres of land are envious and jealous, and want to continue to make contributions to obtain more land, and also have little time to cultivate the land.

Moreover, the laws of the Daughter Kingdom are clearly stipulated.

The land must not be abandoned.

So the soldiers who got the land didn't need Qu Jie to urge them at all. They just figured out their own way, either entrusting someone to send a letter, or sneaking back to Dagan, trying to get their family members, even close friends and relatives, to come over. Help them farm, or continue to fight with them, earn more land and so on.

Daughter Country took this very smoothly.

A new source of population has been opened up.
