After rebirth, the eldest princess ascended the throne by barrage

Chapter 86 The White Lotus Sect

The stall owner was an old man, who was sleeping soundly against the corner of the wall with a straw hat on. King Ji asked his attendants to carefully wake the old man up.

The old man raised his eyelids and glanced at King Ji's group, and lazily said: "The name of this thing is 'glass', and it's a piece of gold. Please do it."

King Ji didn't make a statement yet, but Mr. Fang was stunned. King Ji thought he was scared by the price, so he snorted disdainfully.

Poor man!

But what Mr. Fang thinks is that they can take the money directly, but they still give King Ji a piece of glass that took a day to make. They are so kind!

In order to prevent Mr. Fang from making trouble again, King Ji said bluntly: "I bought it with my own money, Mr. Fang should not suffer from old problems, right?"

"No, no," Mr. Fang was as nimble as a civet cat, and quickly moved away from King Ji, "Don't worry, my lord, the old illness of the lower official is cured for the time being."

Well, it's temporary, and it will happen again in the future depending on the situation.

King Ji bought his favorite thing with his own money, and left satisfied, and Mr. Fang also left with the bank note in hand.

Both of them are very satisfied with their harvest.

In the next few days, Mr. Fang accompanied King Ji to go shopping, and he did not relapse from his old illness. Whenever King Ji looked at it twice, Mr. Fang quickly took the items in his hand like a cheetah, and asked the shopkeeper to go to the Prince Ji's mansion to pay the bill.

King Ji felt that his trip to Chang'an City was not going well, so he stayed for a few more days before saying goodbye to Emperor Xuan of Jin and returning to Jizhou.

Emperor Xuan of Jin was reluctant to part with him, and verbally asked King Ji to stay for a longer period of time. After all, King Ji was gone, and the shops on Chang'an City Street would not be taken advantage of.

But King Ji regarded Chang'an City as a scourge, packed his luggage non-stop, and returned to Jizhou with his wife and children.

Soon after King Ji left, Taiwei Qi sent a memorial saying that the disaster in Xuzhou had disappeared, and he asked to return to Chang'an City. Emperor Xuan of Jin put his memorial at the bottom as if he hadn't seen it.

His uncle and father-in-law is quite ambitious, and he tried to get his hands into the Shenji camp in vain. It is better to suppress and suppress, lest the monarch and his ministers meet with each other and ruin the harmony.

As soon as the disaster in Xuzhou was over, the turmoil in Yangzhou broke out again. The governor of Xuzhou sent a secret letter to Emperor Xuan of Jin in [-] li.

"Chang'an, what do you think?"

Since Yangzhou was the fiefdom of Shen Chang'an, Emperor Xuanji of the Jin Dynasty asked Shen Chang'an to come over besides Taifu Xuanji and others to discuss with the imperial study.

Shen Changan read the secret letter at a glance, pondered for a moment and said: "Father, the letter said that the White Lotus Sect is good at deceiving people's hearts. Taoists and even Buddhists are confused by them and turn to believe in the White Lotus Sect."

"My son is dull, but I also know that Buddhism and Taoism are stable... I don't know what is so special about the White Lotus Sect that has just risen up, so that Mrs. Xu, who has believed in Buddhism for more than [-] years, converted to the White Lotus Sect."

Shen Chang'an raised his own doubts, and Taifu Ji and others also had the same question. Seeing this, Emperor Xuan of Jin took out the second secret letter from his bosom.

Eunuch You took it and handed it to Taifu Ji. After watching it, Taifu Ji saw the look in his eyes, um, how can I describe it, it was like seeing a ghost in broad daylight.

The officials in the imperial study looked at each other, read the letters one by one, and then, the same expressions as Taifu Ji appeared on their faces.

Shen Changan also read it, and after reading it he said: "It's nonsense!"

Emperor Xuan of Jin agrees, it is indeed nonsense, happiness is achieved through struggle, how can chickens, ducks, fish, gold, silver and jewels fall from the sky just by praying?

"What's your opinion on this matter?"

Master Hubu Shangshufang frowned and spoke first, "Your Majesty, according to my humble opinion, if worshiping the gods can make pies fall from the sky, then this old minister will not be able to kneel forever!"

Ji Taifu also said: "Your Majesty, since ancient times there has been no such thing as "pie in the sky, if people in the world get something for nothing, it will be a mess."

The words of the two adults are not rough. There are few people in the world who do not love money, but most of them earn their wealth through their own efforts. This is the first time I heard that as long as you sincerely pray to the White Lotus God, you can get a lot of wealth.

This is simply ridiculous!

"Not only that," Shen Chang'an pointed to a place in his heart and said to Emperor Xuan of Jin, "Father, Inspector Xu mentioned in his letter that many old wives of noble families in Yangzhou believe in the White Lotus Sect. Seeing the reason... In my son's opinion, this White Lotus Sect still has some skills."

Emperor Xuan of Jin looked again at the place Shen Changan pointed to. It said that because they believed in the White Lotus Sect, many families who wanted children got their wish. Mrs. Xu and a few good wives personally checked the authenticity, so they believed in the White Lotus Sect for their own children.

At the beginning, they just had an attitude of trying, but later they got their wish, and they respected the White Lotus Sect more and more, even to the point of becoming obsessed!
No matter what method is used to make these families have children, it is the ability of the White Lotus Sect after all. For the world, children are even more important than wealth.

Zhongshuling Yu Yicheng once went to Yangzhou and lived in the Governor's Mansion for a while. He thought about it and said: "Your Majesty, I remember that Xu Governor was ordered by a Taoist priest to say that he was destined to have no children. At that time, Mrs. Xu asked her servants to beat him out."

"I later heard from the servants of the governor's mansion that it's not that Xu governor has no sons, but no matter how many sons he gives birth to, he will die at the age of three."

Everyone wanted to hear the details, but Yu Yicheng said that he only knew these things, and left after staying in the governor's mansion for a few days.

Emperor Xuan of Jin slapped the table, "White Lotus Sect is right and evil, dear friends, is there someone who would like to ask for orders to go to Yangzhou to investigate?!"

Just as Yu Yicheng was about to raise his hand, he heard Emperor Xuan of Jin say: "The Taifu, Zhongshu Ling and the six ministers are unnecessary. I have other important matters for you."

The rest of the officials looked at each other in blank dismay, and kept winking at the people they had made friends with. This White Lotus Sect seems to be a stubborn stubble. If it is not done well, this official uniform will be gone.

Shen Chang'an sat at the head of Emperor Xuan of Jin, and looked at these officials almost imperceptibly. They were all old officials who were in their forties or over fifty years old, and there was not a single one who was younger.

When people get old, they don't have the energy to dare to fight. If this is the case, Shen Changan understands their desire to live a few more years, but expresses his contempt for their behavior of suppressing young officials.

The aristocratic family is deeply entrenched, so that the children from the poor family have no way to get ahead, and they are all struggling to survive in a dilemma.

If you step back, I'm sorry for your talent and ability. If you go up, you will get a dead end. Unless you have a close relationship with the aristocratic family, no matter how hard you try, you will not be as high as the official position of the aristocratic family who waits to die.

Emperor Xuan of Jin ascended the throne for only three years, but the control of the family began from the time of the supreme emperor.

How can a side-lying couch allow others to snore and sleep? Emperor Xuan of Jin also wanted to force back the power of some aristocratic families and make himself more powerful.

Of course, it is impossible to completely eliminate the aristocratic family, at least not now, existence is reasonable, and the aristocratic family has its own benefits.

Shen Chang'an bowed to Emperor Xuan of Jin, and solemnly said: "Father, my son is willing to ask for orders to go to Yangzhou!"
