Hearing this, Mu Xuzi nodded slowly.

But the expression remained unchanged.

It seems that he agrees with Ying Zigao's statement, but he is not sure.

After a long time, he spoke again: "Your Majesty... what you said is very true."

"Since productivity has improved and living standards have risen, then...you should have more leisure time."

At this time, Ying Zigao turned around, looked at Mu Xuzi, then smiled slightly, and said, "By the way, I plan to give you a job."

"What do you think you are suitable for?"

When Mu Xuzi heard this, he quickly shook his head and said, "Your Majesty doesn't need it!"

"I am a practitioner, and I have no interest in these things."

"It is the common people's desire to be promoted and get rich, but for the poor, they just want to be quiet and continue to practice."

"In troubled times, Taoist priests went down the mountain, but now, the world is peaceful, and the common people live and work in peace and contentment!"

"We practitioners should continue to stay in the deep mountains, not to contend with the world, but to seek peace."

After hearing this, Ying Zi shook his head slowly, and then answered, "Mu Xuzi, do you know what I originally planned to do?"

"What does your majesty mean?"

Mu Xuzi asked with a surprised face.

"I planned to go on an expedition to Japan, but why didn't I go?"

"Hehehe, isn't it that the world is not peaceful yet?"

"As the saying goes, if you fight against the outside world, you must first settle down inside."

"The Japanese pirates in Dongying always harass me towards the coastal border, so... I plan to conquer Dongying, and simply accept Dongying as my country."

"But now, the country is not peaceful."

"I also heard that someone established a Hantu Academy in Yazhou and other places, intending to use public opinion to cause chaos in the world!"

"Hmph! I heard that the mastermind behind the scenes is none other than some of the hundred schools of thought."

"These people are afraid that the world will not be chaotic!"

"Before, I was able to turn a blind eye to the various schools of thought and turn a blind eye."

"But now, I can no longer be so kind."

"Too kind, they will only think that it is my weakness!"

Hearing this, Mu Xuzi nodded slowly and said: "Your Majesty said so."

"If we want the world to truly usher in peace, then the hundreds of schools must form one family and serve His Majesty."

After finishing speaking, Mu Xuzi slowly raised his head and looked at Ying Zigao.

Ying Zigao smiled and nodded, "The Taoist priest is right."

"So... what is the Taoist priest thinking about?"

Mu Xuzi looked curious: "How did you think about it?"

"Hehe... Don't act stupid in front of me. I made it very clear. I want you to work for me, Daqin."

After hearing this, Mu Xuzi shook his head slowly, and then replied: "Poverty Taoist, he has always protected the country and punished evildoers. He doesn't need any official position. Poor Taoist will find a way to save the people of Daqin from the fire and water. .”

Ying Zigao listened, this Mu Xuzi is really a devout Taoist believer!
He didn't even want to give it to him.

Obviously, this Mu Xuzi is by no means an idle person.

However, the more this Mu Xuzi was like this, the more Ying Zigao wanted to accept Mu Xuzi as his subordinate.

However, after thinking about it, Ying Zigao still felt that if he wanted to firmly control Mu Xuzi, he should do more.

After a long time, Ying Zigao smiled, turned around slowly, looked at Mu Xuzi, and said, "In this case, I will establish another department."

"What do you think, taking Taoism as my Daqin state religion, how about it?"

When Mu Xuzi heard this, he quickly knelt down!

He stared at Ying Zigao in shock, slowly shook his head and said, "Your Majesty! Absolutely not! Didn't Your Majesty say that there is no state religion in the Great Qin Kingdom?"

"It shouldn't be like this!"

"Great Qin, rule the country according to the law, based on technology and industry!"

"No religion should be propagated."

After hearing this, Ying Zigao shook his head with a smile and said, "No, the Taoist priest misunderstood."

"I don't want to spread Taoism either. What I mean is that Taoism is the national religion of China."

"It is the native religion of China since ancient times."

"Different from other schools of thought, they are all doctrines, while you are a kind of belief."

"I think that Taoism should be reformed, absorbing the advantages of all schools of thought, taking the essence and discarding the dross."

"In the end, merge into true Taoism."

"As for Taoism, a hundred flowers must bloom together! It cannot be decided by one person."

"Also, Taoism must be loyal to our Great Qin Empire!"

"People need faith."

"Faith can make people better, and life will be more hopeful."

"Although today's Great Qin State is indeed atheistic, it cannot just rely on the law to force the people to give up those superstitions."

"Always, there must be a belief to support the people."

"In my opinion, your Taoism is very good."

After hearing this, Mu Xuzi nodded slowly and said: "Your Majesty's words are reasonable, but... but I... sorry, Your Majesty, I was not able to convince the head."

"Now that the master has left, it is estimated that they will join forces with the people of Tianzong, and finally, they will unite with hundreds of schools."

"Is this kind of Taoism the Taoism you want, Your Majesty?"

After hearing this, Ying Zigao slowly shook his head and said, "No, no, Mu Xuzi, you may not understand what I mean."

"What I mean is, it's up to you to create a brand new Taoism!"

"It's up to you to be the master!"

Hearing this, Mu Xuzi was even more shocked!

He stared at Ying Zigao in disbelief, then slowly took a few steps back, shook his head and said, "No, no, no, your majesty, Pindao is just a small elder, who has not practiced for a mere hundred years, and he can't do it at all." Competent for the position of elder!"

"The cultivation base of Pindao is the most, but Jindan..."

Before he finished speaking, Ying Zigao interrupted: "I don't care about your cultivation level. Besides, I'm not a Taoist. I'm not interested in what your cultivation level is."

"What I value is your character!"

"Your character is good enough to take the position of head!"

"I, in the land of Sichuan and Shu, I found a mountain and named it Shushan! You will be the first head of the Shushan sect!"

"Thoroughly reform Taoism! From the original Tianzong and Renzong, to let a hundred flowers bloom!"

"Change to sect!"

"All sects work for my Great Qin!"

"When the world is at peace, you will train your disciples and walk the rivers and lakes! Punish evil and promote good!"

"In troubled times, you will go down the mountain to assist the emperor and protect the country! How about it?"

Hearing this, Mu Xuzi hurriedly knelt down on one knee and said, "Mu Xuzi, the poor man, thank you for your trust! The poor man will definitely do it for His Majesty! For Daqin! He will go through fire and water! He will die!"
