The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 342 The definition of winning and losing is different

At the Huai County Mansion, Ah Yue told all the details of what happened after she ran away from home in a fit of anger.

It turned out that after she was murdered that day, Zuo waited for Cheng Yuanzhi not to come to comfort her, and Right waited still did not come.

Two days passed in a flash.

The more Ah Yue thought about it, the more wronged she felt, she felt that she had fallen out of favor, and she left her hometown and came to the northern part of the Central Plains. Now, not only is her husband neither caring nor loving, but she also speaks cruelly to each other. There is no way she can survive this day, so she decides to leave home.

Early yesterday morning, before dawn, she packed some things into a package, and went out with the big white dog.

As soon as I came out of the mansion and looked around, I realized that I was not familiar with the place, and I was suddenly at a loss.

But it's all out, so it's not easy to go back with a stern face.Ah Yue had no choice but to wander aimlessly outside Huai County.

Unknowingly, I arrived at Lijia Village.

Coincidentally, the people of Lijia Village were tying Zhang Hai to the entrance of the village, hanging him up and beating him.

Seeing Ah Yue's lonely appearance, the village chief thought of the crimes his granddaughter had suffered in the Taoist temple, and asked where Ah Yue would go, so he warmly invited her to stay at home temporarily and be with her granddaughter...

Seeing that the villagers are honest and kind, Ah Yue followed suit and took the big white dog to live in Lijia Village.

Unexpectedly, the next morning, a menacing Taoist priest came to the village, holding a sword, and killing anyone he saw.

More than 50 people in Lijia Village died instantly, and the village was wiped out.

The Taoist priest originally wanted to kill her, but for some reason he finally gave up and took her to the temple behind the Taoist temple.

Everyone knows what happened after that...

As Ah Yue confides, she cries like pear blossoms and rain, feeling extremely wronged.Cheng Yuanzhi wanted to laugh when he heard it, but also secretly felt distressed. From time to time, he patted Ah Yue's back and comforted him:
"It's okay, it's okay, come on, take a sip of hot water to calm down..."

Zhen Mi rolled his eyes at him, and said angrily: "What's the use of drinking hot water, husband, don't make trouble, let the concubine come to enlighten sister Ayue."

With tears on Ah Yue's cheeks, she hurriedly pushed away the unruly rough hand on her body, and gave a low "hmm".

Cheng Yuanzhi looked helpless and said: "What's wrong with the hot water? Hot water is a good thing! Quench your thirst and replenish water, drive away the cold and facilitate your bowel movements. Drinking more hot water is good for your health!"

Having said that, Cheng Yuanzhi still stepped out of the room and stood outside the door, feeling deeply moved.

It seems that this bad habit of not waiting for hot water has existed since ancient times.

Alas, when will the hot water stand up!

In the room, the two women looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a little delicate.

Zhen Mi hurriedly held Ah Yue's hands, and comforted her softly: "Sister, why bother, you don't even know, since you left, my husband has been thinking about it all the time, and I don't even think about eating or drinking."

"Before, my husband was busy with the affairs of the state, and my mood was disturbed for a while. I spoke bluntly and did not care about the consequences. As a woman and a family, even if I have a grievance, I should bear it. How can I get angry with my husband?"

"This time, if your husband hadn't found a clue and went to rescue him alone, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to come back..."

These well-founded and earnest words are obviously blaming Cheng Yuanzhi, but in fact they are blaming Ah Yue for not being a woman, as the mistress of the mansion, she doesn't set an example, and even runs away from home without authorization, the influence is too bad.

This is to rely on the husband's love to change another family, so that the woman who violates women's morals will be divorced.

Ah Yue understood what Zhen Mi said, her eyes were red, she bit her lip, and said in a low voice: "Sister, Ah Yue knows she was wrong, so she won't dare next time."

Zhen Mi made a pretty face: "Do you still want to have a next time?"

Ah Yue said with tears: "Don't dare, don't dare anymore, woo woo woo..."

Before he finished speaking, he lay down on the bed, covered his face and sobbed softly.

Although the cry was small, it was extremely sad.

As soon as I heard it, I knew that Ah Yue's previous grievances had not disappeared, and new hardships had been added.

Outside the door, Cheng Yuanzhi was so disturbed by the crying, he pushed the door open and entered, and cast a peevish glance at Zhen Mi.

Zhen Mi's face became hot, Shi Shiran got up, closed the door, and backed out.

Cheng Yuanzhi patted Ah Yue's back, and said softly, "Okay, just pay more attention next time."

Ah Yue turned around and threw herself into her husband's arms, weeping silently.

Cheng Yuanzhi glanced down at Ah Yue's painted face, and said with a smile, "Who has no faults? If you change it, you will be encouraged, alright, alright, if you cry again, you will become a cat with an ugly face."

Ah Yue patted him lightly, smiled through tears, turned her face away, and said angrily, "I hate it!"

Cheng Yuanzhi quickly piled up a professional warm male smile, and after a good meal, his mouth was dry and his tongue was sour, and then he comforted Ah Yue.

After half an hour.

Seeing that the fire in the backyard had subsided, Cheng Yuanzhi heaved a sigh of relief, rubbing his old waist and going out without caring to catch his breath.

He still has things to do.

The Tianshi Sect is so harmful that they cannot be allowed to develop any longer.

As soon as he came out of the inner room, Cheng Yuanzhi sent someone to call Jia Xu and Zhao Yun to see him.

Not long after, the two came one by one.

Cheng Yuanzhi looked at the two of them, and said in a deep voice, "I want to curb the development of Tianshijiao, but I don't know if Wenhe has a clever plan?"

Before Jia Xu came to Hanoi, he already knew why he came here, and collected a lot of information about the Heavenly Master's teachings. Hearing the words, he pondered for a while, and said:
"Your Majesty, please understand that although the Tianshijiao and the Taiping Dao founded by the three brothers Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao, and Zhang Liang belong to Taoism, they also operate in the same way of teaching and government, but they are very different..."

Cheng Yuanzhi nodded. He had already understood this point. Specifically speaking, there were three differences between Zhang Lu's Tao of Heavenly Master and Zhang Jiao's Tao of Peace.

[-]. The source of Taiping Dao and Tianshi Dao is different.

Although Tianshijiao and Taipingdao belong to the branch sects of Taoism, their origin and existence time are quite different.Tianshijiao was established in 142 AD. The first generation of Tianshi was Zhang Daoling, Zhang Lu's grandfather.

Zhang Daoling is the tenth grandson of Zhang Liang, the founding hero of the Western Han Dynasty. He first established Taoism on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in the first year of Han'an (142 A.D.), Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty. In Shu, he taught Zhang Daoling's "Taipingdongjijing", "Zhengyimengwei 24 Grades of Dharma", "Three and Five Dugong Jade Seals", "Male and Male Slashing Evil Sword" and other scriptures and magic tools" excuse, so he called himself Celestial Master.

By the time Tianshijiao was passed down to Zhang Lu's generation, Tianshijiao had been established for more than [-] years.Although the influence in the whole country is not great, it has a deep foundation in the birthplace of Bashu.

And because most of the land of Bashu believed in ghosts and gods, Zhang Daoling's establishment of Tianshijiao maintained the stability of the Han court from another perspective.And because Zhang Daoling is a descendant of Zhang Liang, and has profound Taoism, in the fourth year of Emperor Yongyuan of the Han Dynasty (AD 92), the imperial court issued an edict to conscript Zhang Daoling as Taifu, but Zhang Daoling did not go.

From this point of view, Zhang Daoling is a Taoist figure recognized by the court.

And Zhang Jiao himself is a wandering Taoist priest with a grassroots background and is not officially recognized.

After studying the "Taiping Jing", Zhang Jiao began to preach in the Jianning period of Emperor Ling of the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 168). Up to the uprising, it was only more than ten years, and the foundation was extremely shallow.

Although Taiping Dao has attracted millions of followers in more than ten years, judging from the establishment time and influence of the sect, Tianshijiao is undoubtedly superior.

[-]. The Tao of Taiping and the Tao of Heavenly Masters have different concepts.

From the perspective of organizational form, the Yellow Turban Army and the Five Dou Rice Sect are based on religion, attracting believers, and gathering people to achieve success. However, after the Yellow Turban Army appeared, it was immediately wiped out by the thunder of the Han Dynasty, and the regime established by Zhang Lu was able to survive in Hanzhong For more than [-] years, they lived in peace and harmony.

And Tianshijiao survived after Zhang Lu surrendered.

This is mainly due to the differences in the goals of the two sects and the means used to achieve them.

The Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Jiao wanted to overthrow the great man and establish an ideal world described in the "Taiping Jing", where the emperor is less important than the teacher, and the celestial master rules everything.

Moreover, the last fig leaf of the big man was lifted by extremely violent means, which made the already precarious court worse.

Therefore, it is impossible for the Han court to tolerate the rampage of such a rebel force, and it cannot be tolerated.

Based on this, it was only natural for Thunder to send troops.

The Tianshi Teaching inherited by Zhang Lu is the original version of egalitarianism in doctrine.

Tianshijiao requires believers to pay attention to integrity and not to deceive.Whenever a small mistake is found to be concealed, the road must be repaired for a hundred steps to make up for it.

If it is a violation of the law, there are three chances to forgive and avoid punishment.Only when all three opportunities have been used up will punishment be imposed.

This kind of teaching system, which is similar to the teachings of later generations of Christianity, quickly won the support of the people.

Compared with Taiping Dao, the structure of Tianshijiao is more perfect. Zhang Lu, as the supreme leader, calls himself Tianshi; all 108 apprentices under him are Jijiu, and the believers below are called ghost soldiers.

Zhang Lu required that in every jurisdiction where the wine is sacrificed, a "community house" must be built to provide food for passers-by.There are "righteous rice" and "righteous meat" for people to eat in it.

In order to prevent wasting food or taking rice and meat home for personal use, Zhang Lu also instilled in the believers the idea of ​​"eating too much, and ghosts and gods will punish them", so as to curb petty theft and waste from the source.

At the same time, the canon of Tianshijiao stipulates that believers are prohibited from slaughtering animals casually and drinking too much alcohol. Hanzhong has been built into a relatively stable society in troubled times.

In a word, the methods taught by Tianshi are gentle and the disciples are kind.

[-]. The Tao of Heavenly Master and the ruler of the court are not contradictory on the surface.

The main purpose of Taipingdao is to overthrow the imperial court, rebuild and create a new form of regime, and kill all the officials of the imperial court as corrupt officials.

The Tianshijiao is based on the rule of the Han Dynasty, and then builds a new ruling system, namely: Tianshi-sacrifice wine-ghost soldiers, not only has no obvious threat to the court, but even helps in the process of educating the people. Regarding the management of the imperial court, the imperial court may consider making a move for such a regime that does not do much harm when it can.

But unfortunately, at that time, the big man was full of wolf smoke and couldn't take care of himself, so he couldn't take care of it.

The most important thing is that after Zhang Lu surrendered to Wei, his identity was still Zhang Tianshi. Although most of the Tianshijiao was disbanded, he was not fatally injured, and even spread to the north and the Central Plains, further expanding its influence .

These benevolent policies implemented by Zhang Lu's Tianshijiao in Hanzhong made Hanzhong the only paradise for the people of the Han Dynasty.In the troubled times, a stable and harmonious haven of refuge was created for the people. Therefore, Tianshijiao was naturally supported by the people. Even after Zhang Lu surrendered to Wei, his reputation and the reputation of Tianshijiao were not as good. If it gets worse, it will rise further, and there will be more and more believers.

If one didn't pay attention, Tianshijiao formed the current situation with millions of followers, which is difficult to deal with.

Because Tianshijiao is closely bound with the people, it is as difficult as going to heaven to destroy Tianshijiao.

This made Cheng Yuanzhi at a loss for a while, and had to turn to Jia Xu, an old think tank, for help.
