I'm an immortal in heaven

Chapter 907 Who Is The New Prefect

Shu County, Guanjiangkou Erlang Zhenjun Daochang, because the six Meishan brothers and all the Caotou gods went to subjugate the general government to obey the orders, so there are only a group of immortal officials under the command of Erlang Zhenjun in the Erlang Zhenjun Temple.

Of course, this also includes the two mountain gods of Cancong and Yufu. Of course, Huan Fan, the land god of Erlang Temple, is currently in charge of Erlang Zhenjun Daochang.

"In the Shu Mountains, if there is no Nantian Mansion Fu Zhao, no one is allowed to establish a sect." In the Erlang Temple, Fang Jian instructed the two mountain gods Cancong and Yufu to say.

Cancong and Yufu immediately bowed their heads and sang, "I would like to abide by the decree of Daoist Hongqing."

Fang Jian nodded, and was about to leave when Huan Fan, the land god, suddenly said, "Master Hongqing, please stay."

Fang Jian stopped, turned to Huan Fan and asked, "What else is there for the God of Earth?"

Huan Fan said: "Realist Hongqing, the human incarnation of the Generalissimo of the Three Realms who subdue demons has completed his merits and virtues, and he has returned to his righteous body. Logically speaking, Daoist Hongqing should present his congratulations."

"Oh?" Fang Jian raised his brows when he heard the words, the Grand Marshal of the Three Realms, that is Guan Yu.

Thinking of Guan Yu's avatar sent to the world to return to the deity with its merits and virtues, this is indeed something worthy of celebration.

Fang Jian nodded, then cupped his hands at Huan Fan and said, "Thank you, the Land God, for reminding me."

Huan Fan quickly waved his hand and said, "Don't dare, Daoist Hongqing takes care of all kinds of situations every day, and the lower officials are just reminding me."

After Fang Jian left Erlang Temple, he came to Cangluan Peak and called Hei Haier, who had already refined the divine power of the fairy fruit in his body, and his cultivation base had increased a lot, "Marshal of the Three Realms Subduing Demons has returned in his incarnation, and you go for me Congratulations."

When Hei Haier heard this, he immediately asked, "Is it Master Guan?"

"Yes, it's Master Guan." Fang Jian said with a smile, and then took out a ten-thousand-year red sandalwood box and handed it to Hei Haier, saying, "There is a 10-year-old Three-Life Treasure Emperor Jade Lotus in it, which I gave to Marshal Fumo of the Three Realms." congratulations."

Treasure Emperor Jade Lotus is the top-grade fairy lotus among acquired lotuses. Whether it is for alchemy or cultivation, it is an excellent natural treasure.

As for the Three Lives Treasure Emperor Jade Lotus, it is said that this Jade Lotus has three branches in one body, and it is a variant of the Treasure Emperor Jade Lotus, which is even more precious.

This is what Fang Jian gained in Xiniu Hezhou, and this treasure emperor jade lotus was 'confiscated' from King Da Rizong Ming.

Hei Haier put away the ten-thousand-year red sandalwood box, at this time Fang Jian said again: "After you finish your congratulations, come to Chang'an to find me."

"Yes." Heihaier sang respectfully.

The emissary's mansion of the conquest general system, and the palace of the Marshal of Fumo, are full of immortal officials and immortals and gods.

Marshal Guan Yu sat on it, stroking his beautiful beard and long beard, and slowly said: "This time, I sent my incarnation to the lower realm for 66 years, and declared Debuhua, so that all living beings in the world will know the alliance I made in Taoyuan back then, and the oath of life and death. , pass on loyalty and righteousness to all ages, correct customs in Zhichun, record and transmit images, and educate all living beings. Now that the merits and virtues have been completed, and the incarnation has returned to its place, it is really gratifying."

Immediately, all the immortals and gods who were sent down stood up to congratulate and present the gift, and for a while, the fairy music and laughter in the crouching demon palace sang together.

Not long after, a heavenly general walked quickly into the Fumo Palace and sang: "The boy, Heihaier, is following the decree of Hongqing Daoist, and here is a special congratulatory gift to Marshal Fumo."

Hearing the heavenly general's report, all the gods present were stunned, and Guan Yu, who was at the top, immediately said, "Quickly please."

All the gods present saw only Fang Jian's boy, not Fang Jian himself, so they didn't stand up to greet him, but just set their eyes on Hei Hai'er.

I saw Hei Haier holding the ten-thousand-year red sandalwood box in his hand, and walked quickly to the center of the palace to worship: "Hei Haier, according to the decree of the master, congratulates the marshal of the three worlds who subdued the demons and returned to the heaven. Give birth to a treasure emperor jade lotus as a token of congratulations."

All the immortals and gods around suddenly took a breath, 10-year three-life treasure emperor jade lotus?This Hongqing real person is really rich and powerful.

Even Guan Yu himself was taken aback for a moment, and then he said, "Present."

The boy next to Guan Yu immediately went down, took the red sandalwood box from Hei Haier, and then returned to present it to Guan Yu.

Guan Yu waved his hand to open the red sandalwood wooden box, and suddenly a bright and bright Baohua fairy light emanated from the wooden box, accompanied by a burst of extremely rich and fragrant medicinal fragrance, instantly filling the entire Fumo Palace.

"What a treasure, what a jade lotus." The surrounding gods all praised.

Guan Yu could see more clearly that there were three branches growing from the main rhizome of the Treasure Emperor Jade Lotus, and a fresh and blooming lotus grew on each branch.

"Okay, okay." Guan Yu's face was full of love. The three branches on the treasure emperor jade lotus, don't they just symbolize the friendship between the three brothers?
Although only Guan Yu has the highest official rank among the three brothers, the bond of friendship in Taoyuan is as firm as gold and will never change.

"Realist Hongqing has a heart." Guan Yu said, then stood up and bowed to Heihaier: "Please thank Master Hongqing for me."

Seeing this, Hei Hai'er immediately returned the salute, and began to sing: "Yes."

Hei Hai'er stayed in Fumo Palace for another meal, and then he took his leave and left, and then went straight down to Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, to find Fang Jian.

But now the situation in the Great Tang Kingdom has changed drastically. The Prime Minister of the Great Tang Kingdom, Yu Jiang, has passed away long ago and has become a fairy official in the Heavenly Court.

However, even though it was cultivated by Yu Jiang, the political views of this Hu Yanzhi and Yu Jiang are quite different.

When Yu Jiang was alive, he didn't reveal much, but after Yu Jiang's death, he vigorously promoted the change of many systems formulated by Yu Jiang.

Especially when this sect completely withdrew from Nanzhan Buzhou, Li Hong was killed, the new emperor ascended the throne, the border was defeated, and the whole country was in turmoil, many policies formulated by Yujiang were abolished by Hu Yanzhi.

And the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty is Li Zhao, the prince of the former emperor Li Hong. At the beginning, Li Hong established Taoism as the state religion, and then set off a movement to destroy Buddhism. Precarious.

Even after the exterminated Buddhist sect came back, there were a lot of opinions among the people, saying that the Tang Dynasty had offended God by exterminating Buddhism, and now it will suffer retribution, and Li Hong's death is retribution.

In the end, these remarks became more and more outrageous, saying that the Tang Dynasty is about to end, and who told you to destroy Buddhism in the first place?Offended the Buddha and still want to get out?The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty are waiting to die and destroy the country!
For such remarks, the new prime minister Hu Yanzhi naturally suppressed them vigorously and arrested those who spread rumors.

But if you want to say that the new emperor Li Zhao is not afraid, it is a lie. Not long after he came to power, the first thing he did was to abolish the Taoism as the state religion, and demolished the Taoist temples in the palace and the palaces dedicated to the Taoist saints .

After Li Zhao did this, the rumors among the people really had a tendency to stop, and there were new rumors, saying that only by making Buddhism the state religion of the Tang Dynasty can the disaster be resolved, and the forgiveness of sins can be forgiven by the Buddha.

But in the face of this new rumor, Li Zhao reacted all of a sudden, is it Buddhism?Does Buddhism want to be the state religion of the Tang Dynasty?

Therefore, the next day Li Zhao decreed to build a "Jade Emperor Temple" in the palace to enshrine the statue of the Jade Emperor, and he wanted to worship every day.

This time, the people behind the rumors were fooled, good guy, I worked so hard to spread the rumors here, and in the end I forced the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty to the Heavenly Court.

Li Zhao's thinking is also very simple, I don't respect Tao, but I don't respect Buddha either, I respect the Jade Emperor, come on, you guys continue to spread rumors that respecting the Jade Emperor will perish the country?

Just as Li Zhao thought, after he honored the Jade Emperor, all those rumors disappeared all at once.

However, many, many new rumors came out again, but this time these rumors were all rumors prepared for Li Zhao's personal and the court of the Tang Dynasty, with the purpose of defaming the prestige and image of the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the court.

Li Zhao was furious after seeing these rumors, and immediately prepared to mobilize troops to kill all those who spread the rumors.

But this matter was immediately stopped by the Prime Minister Hu Yanzhi. Although the Tang Dynasty now has internal and external troubles, under the governance of the former emperor Li Hong, the people are rich and the country is rich. It seems to be precarious but its foundation is very solid.

However, if Li Zhao massacres because of rumors, it will be very easy to be used by people with a heart. When the killing becomes uncontrollable, the foundation of the Tang Dynasty will be shaken.

The reason is very simple. You can’t force things like rumors. If you kill people because of this, then a lot of innocent people will die unjustly if they are taken advantage of by those who want to. After all, you only need to move your mouth to slander someone. Now, the killing at that time must be indiscriminate between green and red, and black and white, which will greatly shake the ruling foundation of the Tang Dynasty and the legitimacy of the imperial power.

Although Li Zhao was angry, he was not out of his mind, so after Hu Yanzhi persuaded him, he dismissed the idea.

But the more Ren thought about it for a while, the more angry he became, especially now that rumors were flying all over the country, Li Zhao immediately summoned the great scholars in the court, and began to write books with the great scholars. What kind of book should they write?Naturally, it was a book to refute rumors. They selected and refuted the rumors that smeared the emperor and the court one by one, and then edited them into volumes and distributed them all over the country.

Of course, those who spread rumors with solid evidence will continue to be arrested and sentenced.

Thus, the emperor and the imperial court of the Tang Dynasty began to confront some resistance forces in the air. Regardless of whether the rumors were dismissed or not, the common people watched the excitement anyway.

Datang Kingdom, Nanzhou, Yanlai Lake outside Bailu City, Qingxia Temple.

A group of government soldiers surrounded Qingxia Temple, and the new Bailucheng prefect had ordered that no one in Qingxia Temple should leave without authorization.

When the Great Tang Guozun Dao exterminated the Buddha, this Qingxia temple can be said to be very crowded.

But when the Daoist sect was defeated from the Tang Dynasty, the Qingxia temple suddenly became deserted and lonely, until today the new prefect led two thousand soldiers to surround the place.

The original owner of Qingxia Temple, Liu Qingxia, has passed away, and now the new owner of Qingxia Temple is the original leader of Qingxia Temple, 'Xuan Shang'.

At this moment, Xuanshang, the new master of the temple, is leading a group of nuns and guards in Qingxia Temple to welcome the new eunuch of Bailu City on the square outside the main hall of Qingxia Temple.

"You said, why did the new prefect send troops to surround our Qingxia Temple?" A Taoist nun from Qingxia Temple asked the Taoist nuns beside her suspiciously.

The Taoist nuns around were also full of doubts. One of the Taoist nuns shook her head and said, "I don't know. Our Qingxia Temple has always abided by the law and did not violate the laws of the Tang Dynasty."

At this time another Taoist nun said: "I heard that the new eunuch's surname is Mei, and she is also a woman."

Women in the Tang Dynasty have been officials for decades, and it is nothing new.

But the prefect is a fourth-rank official, and there have been very few local female officials of the fourth rank in the Tang Dynasty in the past few decades.

But hearing the conversation of the people behind him, the head of the Xuanshang temple in the front frowned slightly, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart.
