Myths and Dharma, starting from Erlang Shen

Ji Ren was not surprised to receive the order to enter the palace.

Although he came to the palace rarely, he was not in awe.

It wasn't until he saw Zhang Jingshou knelt there pitifully in the corner of the hall that his expression changed for the first time, and he raised his eyebrows to indicate what was going on?

Zhang Jingshou looked at Emperor Qi on the side with an aggrieved expression on his face. What else can he do? Of course my dizzy father is confused again. He gave Ji Ren a self-seeking look, come on.

Ji Ren said that he had received it, and secretly paid attention to it. Was he trying to scare the monkeys?

Well, I was really shocked that my own son was so cruel.

"Coming?" Emperor Qi looked straight at Ji Rendao.

Firstly, if Ji Ren doesn’t buy it, there will always be someone who will. Secondly, it only takes a month to get the news. Who are these people? Are they really people? All of them are descendants of aristocratic families. If these people don't make money, Emperor Qi will be heartbroken.

"I understand," Ji Ren said. To be honest, he understood Emperor Qi's dilemma.

"Before the establishment of Daqi, there had never been a dynasty that adopted Taoism as its state religion, and there was no imperial examination that included the Tao Te Ching as part of the imperial examination. If there is no precedent, then create a precedent. Aren't all the rules in this world created from scratch? ?" Ji Ren said.

"It's always been like this, right?" Ji Ren expressed doubts as a literary man.

Sell ​​it.

Emperor Qi looked at Ji Ren for a long time and said for a long time: "What if I grant a marriage to you and Qiao Qingyin, and let you marry two wives at once?"

After going back and forth like this, and then selling it again, Tongfu Chamber of Commerce made a lot of money, and Emperor Qi's small treasury had an extra two hundred thousand taels of silver.

Then, the next night, he returned to the familiar Qingyongbo Mansion.

Zhang Jingshou's eyes almost glowed as he remembered it verbatim in his mind. If he didn't have a pen, he would have excerpted it verbatim.

If that's not the case, Ji Ren can give it to him directly without going through the process of Zhongshu Province.

There is no precedent to follow.

"No." Emperor Qi said angrily.

In Daqi, Tao is number one.

"It's good that you understand. There is no precedent for a woman to be granted the title of nobility in Da Qi. The reason for Guan Yan's title is because Guan Yu's image is indeed precious, and it will be passed down to the Guan family in the next generation. And this title also comes from her ancestors of the Guan family, in the Han Dynasty There are precedents to follow, but Qiao Qingyin doesn't have any." Upon hearing this, Emperor Qi showed a smile. Boyi is indeed sensible, completely different from Zhang Jingshou.

And if he makes money, it can benefit the people of Xiliang.

Zhang Jingshou shouted loudly, expressing his full support for His Majesty's decision.

"This is not a question of maturity, this is a question of right or wrong." Emperor Qi said a little frantically.

Morality, empty.

"I'll take your memorial back when you're here." Emperor Qi threw the memorial to Ji Rendao.

"Yes."

Listening to Ji Ren's words, Emperor Qi's expression changed several times, and finally said: "Bo Yi, you should know that I am doing it for your own good. If I agree to you, the whole country will be shaken and you will be pushed to the forefront, even if you are The memorial is not given to me directly, but goes through Zhongshu Province, which will cause trouble in itself, so you shouldn't..."

He really liked Ji Ren, especially after having Zhang Jingshou as a comparison.

Even after Emperor Qi came back, due to the poor spread of news, some people outside Chang'an City who had just now learned that Emperor Qi might have died planned to sell the land at a low price, and Ji Ren also went to collect it.

Listening to Emperor Qi's pleasant explanation, Zhang Jingshou, who was kneeling beside him, suddenly widened his eyes. What's going on?

Is this still my biological father?

When he faced me, he immediately started to smoke. Now with Lao Ji, are you so nice?

Lao Ji and I, you and I made a mistake at the beginning, right?

"Yes, your Majesty won't allow it now, but your Majesty's disallowance today does not mean that your Majesty will not allow it tomorrow. Just like before returning to Xiliang this time, I sent people to return to Chang'an to purchase land, but Your Majesty later still I supported the minister and happily accepted the dividend of 200,000 taels," Ji Ren said calmly.

If you can deal with those people, I will give you approval.

"Think about it." Ji Ren said.

After all, it is almost impossible for a true scholar to become a high official.

"I don't think so, because when the time comes, His Majesty will persuade those who want to oppose to take the overall situation into consideration. The so-called taking into account the overall situation means to persuade the weak to obey the strong, right?" Ji Ren looked at Emperor Qi and said.

"So, I am still a child. And all the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty can be my father. They should be very mature, so they have to take the overall situation into consideration." Ji Ren said matter-of-factly.

After all, in Chinese society, you never have to worry about no one buying the land.

"What are you talking about?" Emperor Qi glared at Ji Ren angrily, picked up the memorial on the side and threw it at Ji Ren. Fortunately, when he beat Zhang Jingshou before, he had removed all the people who were serving him, otherwise If Ji Ren's words were heard, it would damage Emperor Qi's wise image.

After all, Xiliang has experienced wars for a long time and the people's livelihood has been in ruins. If we want to re-develop, it can't be done by force, it needs to spend money!

But after Ji Ren talked to him again, Emperor Qi readily agreed.

Being an official is more about profit.

"Yes." Ji Ren admitted directly.

"May I ask Your Majesty, does rescuing someone on the battlefield and assisting the commander in defeating the enemy count as military merit? Can he be knighted?" Ji Ren asked again.

This is not Zhang Jingshou. You can't do it directly, you have to be reasonable.

Emperor Qi's face twitched slightly, does this kid really dare to ask anything?

"Young people should be confident, but it will be bad if they are arrogant." Emperor Qi warned.

Emperor Qi opened his mouth wide, and this time he was completely stunned by Ji Ren's question.

"This is not the same thing." Emperor Qi couldn't think of how to answer, so he could only say bluntly.

After all, if precedents can be set casually, then future generations will follow suit.

"Oh. I'll report it tomorrow," Ji Ren said calmly.

Rumors of Emperor Qi's death have spread in Chang'an for almost a month. The people at the lower level are ignorant, but the higher-ups above all know it well. With Emperor Qi's death, the Xiliang army is about to move south, which means Chang'an is in danger. , many well-informed people are ready to run away, but people can leave, and gold and silver can also be taken away, but what about real estate?

But so what?

After killing more than a dozen people and taking power into their hands, all the officials praised His Majesty for being right.

Originally it was for Qingyin to vent her anger, but now maybe Qingyin is venting her anger on me.

Now that a precedent has been set, it will be opposed by the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

"Why are you here?" The smile on Emperor Qi's face faltered. Haven't you figured it out? What else are you doing here?

"Come on." Ji Ren said matter-of-factly.

"I said it, but I can't allow it." Emperor Qi looked at Ji Ren and said.

So I found another opportunity to beat the prince and the king of Wu.

Therefore, although it was obviously the same thing, Emperor Qi's attitude went through four stages: opposition, acquiescence, active support, and regret that the support was not strong enough.

It is certain that there will be many people in the DPRK protesting, but the big bosses will be calmer than the last.
