Invincible Zhengde

Chapter 377 Showing Loyalty

After rushing to the northwest from Mount Qingcheng, Zhang Jingding didn't hesitate when he learned that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had returned to the capital, and left the northwest directly for the capital.

At the same time, he also notified the various sects of the Quanzhen Sect to send personnel to the capital.

After learning the news, Zhu Houzhao was a little surprised.He didn't expect Quanzhen Sect to make such a big commotion.

You must know that Taoism at this time is different from Confucianism today.

Confucianism has almost thrown away the six arts of a gentleman, and there are scholars everywhere who have no power to restrain a chicken.

But Taoist priests are different. Although these people do not possess peerless martial arts and fly around like in martial arts novels, these people like to practice martial arts, and their martial arts skills are superb.

These Taoist priests can definitely be called martial arts masters in this era.Especially when using swordsmanship.

They may not be able to fight in a large army, but if they are singled out, the force value of these people is still very impressive.

But this is considered drowsy, someone sent a pillow.This time, when negotiating with Horqin, Quanzhen Sect can also be included.

When Horqin was building the city, a Taoist temple could be built in the city, so that people from the Quanzhen sect could preach.

Glancing at Liu Jin who was standing not far away to report, Zhu Houzhao directly ordered: "Go and invite Daoist Zhang in."

Facing Zhang Jingding, the respect he should have in face is still to be given, after all, he should be allowed to do things for himself.

Of course, Zhu Houzhao didn't leave much room for Zhang Jingding, and the matter this time was not a discussion.Quanzhen teaches that you have to do what you do, and you have to do what you don’t do.

If they choose not to do it, Zhu Houzhao will definitely not be as simple as suppressing them, or even abolish them directly.

But judging by the postures of Quanzhen Sect and Zhang Jingding, they didn't mean to refuse, but were ready to fight.

In this regard, Zhu Houzhao is happy to hear and see.

If they do well, Zhu Houzhao is not stingy with rewards.If they can achieve the results they want on the grassland, they can even restore their teaching positions.

Not long after, Liu Jin walked in with Zhang Jingding.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the actual head teacher of Quanzhen Sect.

He was young, in his 40s, and although his Taoist robe was old, it was very clean.

There is a wooden hairpin on top of his head, and there is no luxurious decoration on his body, and he holds a whisk in his hand.But there is no sword on his back, probably even if he was carrying a sword, he had already unloaded it outside the palace.

"Poverty Zhang Jingding, see His Royal Highness the Prince." After Zhang Jingding saw Zhu Houzhao.Hastily bowed to salute.

Zhu Houzhao waved his hands and said with a smile, "Daozhang Zhang is exempt."

After Zhang Jingding stood up straight, Zhu Houzhao continued: "It's been a long journey, the Taoist priest has worked hard. I originally wanted to meet the Taoist priest in the northwest, but something happened in the capital, so I rushed back to the capital ahead of time. Let the Taoist priest come from Qingcheng Mountain rushed all the way, I couldn't bear it."

After hearing Zhu Houzhao's words, Zhang Jingding quickly said: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is calling, how dare the poor Daoist neglect it? Although the road is far away, the poor Taoist is also happy. It is the blessing of the poor Daoist to be favored by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Glancing at Zhang Jingding, Zhu Houzhao smiled, and he really knew how to behave.

In fact, Zhang Jingding's heart was already ecstatic.

His Royal Highness is so polite to him, obviously he wants to use him.This is good news for Zhang Jingjing. The Quanzhen Sect has suffered too much, and now there is hope. Let them not say a little flattering words, let them wave the flag for His Royal Highness, advocate without bottom line, they can do it come out.

Zhu Houzhao glanced at Zhang Jingding, since Lang Youqing concubine is interested, then naturally there is no need to go around in circles.

"I'm looking for Daoist Zhang, and I actually have something to discuss with Zhang Daoist." Zhu Hou looked at Zhang Jingding and said directly, "I plan to teach on the grasslands, whether it's on the Liaodong side or the northwest side."

"The imperial court is talking with Horqin about building the city recently. I plan to build a Taoist temple in the new city."

After hearing what Zhu Houzhao said, Zhang Jingding probably understood what it meant.

His Royal Highness wants to go to the grasslands to preach, that is, to preach to those Mongolians.

It is naturally difficult to do this thing, but it is not difficult to make the Quanzhen Sect stand up.Zhang Jingding was very clear about this.

What is the current situation of Quanzhen Sect?
This is already the only straw.If you don't catch it, it will be even more difficult to deal with later.

What's more, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Daming has always been very strong, both externally and internally.

This time, Quanzhen Sect was asked to do this matter, and it was obvious that Quanzhen Sect had no chance to refuse.If he refused, it would be impossible for the whole process to maintain the current state.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jingding didn't hesitate at all, and directly bowed and said: "All of the Quanzhen Sect, we are willing to do our best for His Highness the Crown Prince; to contribute to Daming's conquest of the grassland!"

This is a sign of loyalty.

Zhu Houzhao looked at Zhang Jingding, nodded with a smile, and said directly: "This is the best. The palace will let the Minister of Rites, Zhang Jun, contact the Taoist priest. You can discuss the specific matters. Everything has its ups and downs. Gong believes that the Quanzhen Sect will flourish. Daoist Zhang, what do you think?"

When Zhang Jingding heard this, a delighted smile appeared on his face.

This is what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is making. Although it is not a promise, it is enough, and it is impossible to want more.

"With His Highness the Crown Prince's words, His Highness the Crown Prince is the only one in the Quanzhen Sect to look forward to it."

"Okay, I'm waiting for the good news from Daoist Zhang." Zhu Houzhao made a gesture to see off the guests.

This is already a rare courtesy.

Zhang Jingding left, he left with hope.

Zhu Houzhao also believes that Quanzhen Sect will definitely make new achievements.

The Quanzhen Sect was originally a powerful sect, and Zhu Houzhao had no doubts about their missionary ability.

After being suppressed by the imperial court for so many years, the Quanzhen Sect still exists. Although it has split into many sects, it is still very prosperous.This represents the strength of Quanzhen Sect.

"Your Highness," Liu Jin came over at this time and said respectfully, "Yang Lian is here."

Hearing that Yang Lian was coming, Zhu Houzhao nodded.It seems that there is news about what I want to check.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhu Houzhao said directly, "Let him in."

Not long after, Yang Lian walked in from the outside.

He was still dressed in a red eunuch costume with light makeup, looking like a charming woman.

Zhu Houzhao looked away, seeing Yang Lian like this, he always felt weird.

Is Yang Lian going to become the undefeated East?
"Slave Yang Lian, see Your Highness the Crown Prince." Walking in front of Zhu Houzhao, Yang Lian knelt down and said respectfully.

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and asked in a deep voice, "But is there any news?"
