Being a small official in the secular world is just for fun.
If we really want to talk about authority, it is more profound for ordinary powerful officials in heaven.
Li Changshou didn’t pay too much attention to these things. He used the paper Taoist to hang out among the ordinary people, which was regarded as a little ‘little adjustment’ before the catastrophe of killing the gods.
By the way, setting up a faction in the Shang Dynasty court and winning over your own party members can influence the direction of the Shang Dynasty to a certain extent.
In the first three years of his stay in the Shang Kingdom, he rose to the rank of Six Ministers through some "Zhongnan Paths". This is shocking to ordinary people, but based on Li Changshou's control over people's hearts, it can only be said... …
Slow.
Although the Shang State at this time had a relatively sound court, it did not have a clear official promotion system.
As long as the King of Shang is happy, the doctor can do whatever he wants.
What's more, Li Changshou caused a sensation in Da Yin City by relying on the storytelling content of "Emperor Xuanyuan Fights Chi You". He became known as a 'great scholar' and became a popular figure in front of the King of Shang.
Da Shi is similar to the official position of Tai Shi, but it does not involve the divination and sacrificial rituals of the Shang State. The right to interpret the theocratic power of the Shang State has always been controlled by the "female divination group".
This is actually influenced by Youqin Xuanya, the ancestor of the Shang Kingdom.
After the court meeting, Li Changshou went to his yamen office for a walk, settled all the affairs within half an hour, and then returned to his residence to [do research].
The main content of the research is the ancient history of the human race.
Li Changshou would cut off some of the original smooth story lines, make some sentences that others could not understand, and then piece together a story that was plausible and made people feel that it might be like this.
The more obscure and difficult to understand, the more likely others will think that he is a 'master' and has real material.
In fact, as soon as Li Changshou closed the study door, he would set up some simple magic circles. He would sit behind his desk, move his mind to other realms, and continue to work on other arrangements related to the great tribulation.
In order to avoid suspicion, Li Changshou did not plan to have any convenience with Wen Zhong, and just let the future Grand Master Wen climb up slowly.
Anyway, there is God’s impetus behind it.
But Li Changshou looked at the frustrated Virgin Mary of the Fire Spirit in the military camp...
I felt happy.
The dignified third-generation elder sister of Jiejiao, the eldest disciple of Duobao Taoist, and a prehistoric being, actually changed into a coarse linen clothes and burned firewood when she was responsible for burying pots and making rice in the merchant camp;
It’s true that there is no one left.
Huo Ling also has a personality. He used magic to make a scar on his face, hoping to make a name for himself with his own 'force'.
Li Changshou should not comment too much on this. After all, he is following the path of 'hype' and is opportunistic. He cannot laugh at this pragmatic and down-to-earth behavior.
However, Di Xin was born soon.
It would be a bit too early to start from the grassroots level at this time.
The essence of Shang’s rule is familyTo extend the clan's power, if a solid network of power cannot be established within the Shang Kingdom before the calamity comes, then the secular layout will be meaningless.
However, compared to the third-generation disciples from the Chan Sect, Huo Ling and Wen Zhong were at least responsible and patient.
Li Changshou was really powerless to complain about those third-generation ‘uncle’.
They have been in Da Yin City for more than two years and have been living in a restaurant on the edge of the city. They occasionally go out to inquire for information and have no interest in penetrating the core of Shang Kingdom's power.
In other words, there is absolutely nowhere to start.
Li Changshou didn’t give advice to Wen Zhong, so naturally he wouldn’t give advice to Chan’s disciples. He was like an outsider, occasionally taking a look at the progress of both sides’ attack on Dashang.
Just like that, another half year passed.
Wen Zhong was promoted again. After hesitating for a long time, he came to the Grand Historian's Mansion to see Li Changshou.
Li Changshou drank with him and talked freely. They talked about the affairs of the Shang Dynasty and gave Wen Zhong some hints. Wen Zhong also understood everything and began to understand some of the 'hidden rules'.
However, just as Li Changshou was delighted with the sense of participation in the historical process of mythology, some rumors suddenly began to appear in Da Yin City.
【A sage has appeared in Da Yin!
Zixian has no virtue and only knows pleasure. Wang's younger brother Bi Gan is smart and intelligent, and is the most suitable person to succeed to the throne.
In half a month, an immortal will come to the world and grant Bigan the power of a sage. 】
Li Changshou:...
Why does Chanjiao need to praise and compete?
Li Changshou was a little suspicious in his heart, but the news came from those 'restaurant immortals', and he saw it all.
What is Senior Brother Guangchengzi going to do this time?
The position of the king of the Shang Kingdom has been determined, and it is said that it is Zixian, who is Di Xin's father.
[子] is the surname of Lord Shang. Li Changshou did not pay attention to when it was changed. It was probably around the time of Shang Tang.
——King Zhou was the "evil posthumous title" given to Emperor Xin'an by the Zhou Kingdom after it overthrew the Shang Kingdom. Emperor Xin's name was Zishou, and he was the third son of Zixian.
At this delicate moment when Emperor Xin was about to be born, Emperor Xin's grandfather was about to be buried, and Zixian was about to take over, Chanjiao suddenly did something like this.
Do they really think that the position of king can only be occupied by those who are wise and virtuous?
Zixian has long been groomed as the next head of the country. Now the ministers in the court and the major families that control important business and political affairs, such as Huang Feihu's 'Seven Generations of Loyalty and Liang Lao Huang Family', Already loyal to Zi Xian.
At this moment, asking Bigan to compete with Zixian for the throne would be just wishful thinking unless he could directly cleanse the core of the entire Shang Kingdom.
Li Changshou could only shake his head and smile, and continued to watch the situation.
In less than half a month, a strange phenomenon occurred in the sky of Dayin City. A colorful auspicious cloud flew from the sky and hovered over Bigan's mansion.
Bigan was only a young man at this time, with a handsome face, divine eyes, and even some talent for cultivating immortals.
He was taking a nap when he heard a female voice calling softly, so he walked to the courtyard in a daze. His body was immediately wrapped by the colorful auspicious clouds and slowly rose into the sky.
Everywhere in the city, Bigan can be seen slowly absorbing the auspicious cloud;
A female fairy in white appeared in the sky, with a dignified face, fairy light, and gentle The voice spread throughout the city:
"Bigan, today I will give you the exquisite heart of seven orifices, allowing you to have the ability to see into the world. I hope you can see through the illusion and benefit the common people."
After that. , the female fairy figure turned into clouds and disappeared, and Bigan, who was unconscious at this moment, slowly fell back into the courtyard, surrounded by soldiers and guards.
High in the clouds, Taoist Cihang nodded gently, turned around and returned to Yuxu Palace to resume his life.
But just as she was about to move, she heard a soft call from the side: "Senior Sister Cihang, why don't you stay a few more days to see what happens next?"
Cihang Taoist Humanity Heart Once you hear the voice and feel the charm of the Tao, you will know who is coming.
She turned around and looked at the young Taoist who had appeared not far from her at some point. He was smiling and bowing to her.
Cihang returned the gift, looking a little embarrassed, and said softly:
“I didn’t know that Junior Brother Chang Geng was also here, so I was a bit presumptuous.”
“ Paving the way for murder and calamity is something that both the interpretation and interpretation religions can do, so why would you dare to say so?"
Li Changshou smiled and said: "The reason why I showed up is that I don't understand why. The teacher chooses to praise Bigan as the king?"
"This..."
Cihang originally wanted to say something high-sounding, such as that Bigan has a quick mind and good fortune. , is a man of great talent.
But looking at Li Changshou’s eyes that looked like a smile but not a smile, Taoist Cihang also knew that it was useless to argue, and said softly:
“I don’t know the details of this matter, it’s all Senior Brother told me."
"Alas," Li Changshou sighed, "The struggle for power between kings and seculars is not that simple, and the fate of the emperor is not just a matter of random manipulation.
Sister. If you are willing to wait here with me for a few days, no more than half a month, it can be regarded as a testimony."
"Oh?" Cihang said with a smile, "I wonder what kind of testimony it is?"
"Senior Sister, you will know when the time comes, so please allow me to pass it off."
Cihang was a little confused, but he still nodded and agreed, and released a jade messenger to Li Changshou. Sitting next to him in the clouds, watching the changes in the big city below.
Immortal Bigande gave him the Seven-Orificed Exquisite Heart, which naturally caused an uproar in the entire Da Yin City.
After Bigan woke up, the shy young man suddenly became eloquent and insightful.
The nobles of the royal palace gathered at Bigan's mansion and tried various difficult problems. Most of the time, Bigan immediately gave solutions.
Some ministers brought several complicated cases of injustice, and Bigan restored the truth and found the real culprit in a matter of seconds.
In just three days, Bigan solved all the difficult cases in Dayin City;
A few days later, Bigan was in the court hall, talking about the important events of his family and country, which made many princes and ministers enlightened.
It has only been half a month since Bigan gained the Qiqiao Exquisite Heart. The core area of ‘merchants’ centered on Dayin City began to praise Bigan’s virtues and talents.
There is news in the royal court that King Shang intends to change his successor.
At the court, the ministers were divided into two factions, 80% supported Zixian, and defended the legitimacy of Zixian's succession with the 'eldest son' system inherited from the Shang Dynasty over the years.
The ministers who were originally excluded supported Bigan and asked Lord Shang to establish him as a crown prince on the grounds that Bigan was blessed by immortals and was a sage of the Shang Kingdom.
The two sides are fiercely arguing.
When Bigan heard the news, Qiqiao Linglong knew what would happen next, and rushed to the court.
But he was half a step too late. Before he could leave his house, he was blocked by a large number of soldiers and surrounded inside his house.
That night, the sound of mourning came from the Shang Palace. The old king's old illness relapsed and he died suddenly. The new prince ascended to the throne of the human emperor and mourned the old king.
After the great funeral, the new king ascended the throne for the first time. Bigan and his brother Xu Yu, who was a "concubine", knelt down in the court hall and paid allegiance to the new king.
Zixian treated him generously, gave him a generous reward, and made Xu Yu an idle prince. Because he was outstanding in competition, he was ordered to take charge of punishments.
The replacement of the throne ended smoothly.
"This..."
On the cloud, Taoist Cihang frowned and stared at the scene in front of him, with mixed feelings in his heart.
The first wave of their plans to explain the religion came to an end.
"Senior Sister, what do you think?"
Li Changshou asked with a smile, Taoist Cihang just shook his head and sighed.
"Although there are only mortals in the secular world, the hidden secrets are more terrifying than the Great Sect of Immortals."
"The human heart is complex, and ordinary people can also do it. Slippery."
"Huh?"
"Ah, nothing, nothing, just a little emotion," Li Changshou said warmly, "Sister, do you want to continue reading?" /p>
Taoist Cihang said with a smile: "My plan to explain the teaching has come to nothing, and it is not appropriate for the poor Taoist to stay here longer.
However, after hearing the words of my junior brother, it seems that there are some arrangements later. ?”
“It’s not an arrangement, I just made some preparations,” Li Changshou said with a smile, “I had been reminded by heaven before that I had to go into the ordinary world to protect the next monarch of the Shang Kingdom.
There will be a good show in a few days."
Taoist Cihang blinked slightly and said with a smile: "The poor Taoist must watch and see what the gods in heaven can do."
"Good," Li Changshou nodded slowly.
I reminded Wen Zhong once before, so today I will give some more reminders to Chanjiao.
Lao Honghuang has balanced the evil forces.
Therefore, Taoist Cihang and Li Changshou were watching Da Yin City quietly from the clouds. The white clouds passed by, the sun rose at night, and half a month passed.
That night, good news came from the palace. Zi Xian’s third son was born, and was named Zi Shou.
There was another turmoil in the court. On the grounds of the safety of the country, the ministers asked Zixian to decide on a candidate for the crown prince. At this time, Zixian's eldest son Wei Ziqi was already an adult, outstanding in talent and full of charm.
Zixian originally intended to make Wei Ziqi the crown prince. However, more and more historians came out and said that although Wei Ziqi was the eldest son, he was not the legitimate eldest son.
A minister wondered: "His Royal Highnesses Zi Qi, Zi Yan, and Zi Shou were all born from the same mother. What's the difference?"
That great history, also It was Li Changshou's paper Taoist who smiled and said:
"The great minister asked beautifully, please report to the king!"
When the first two highnesses were born, the king was a prince and the queen was a concubine. The concubine's son should be the concubine's son.
The son who is the queen's son should be the legitimate eldest son. Note) The rules established when the capital was moved to Yin City were these rules that enabled our Shang Kingdom to end the civil strife over the struggle for royal power, stabilize the four directions, and extend the destiny of the country.
Please think carefully. ”
On the throne, Emperor Yi, the powerful and prosperous king of that year, pondered for a few times and said: "What the great historian said makes sense. However, my son has not yet been born, how can we know whether he is a wise king worthy of entrustment?"
Li Changshou didn’t say much. Beside him, a middle-aged woman in mysterious clothes and a black bird cloak came forward, knelt down and began to play:
"The Confusion of the Minister" , it’s up to the king, the king’s confusion has its own secret.”
Divine Yi said: “Let’s do some divination.”
At that moment, all the ministers moved aside. A famous witch dressed in strange makeup came barefoot and began to jump left and right to the rhythm of bells and drums.
It feels a bit like Xiong Lingli’s dancing master.
The middle-aged woman sat in front of the brazier, rolling her eyes, holding a turtle shell, shaking it up and down for a while, and then placed the shell on the charcoal fire.
Several characters are carved into the 'squares' of this turtle shell.
Not long after, the tortoise shell was roasted until cracks appeared, and the crack passed through one of the characters...
A divination that could determine national events was completed in this way.
The woman knelt down and shouted: "Your Majesty, God's will is for Zishou."
Di Yi smiled and said: "In that case, I will take Zishou as his heir."
The ministers shouted wisely, and the whole hall was filled with a pleasant atmosphere.
On the cloud, Li Changshou smiled and said: "Senior sister, do you understand?"
Taoist Cihang frowned slightly and asked softly: "Their method of divination is definitely not speculation. Why do you believe so strongly in this method?"
"Because this is God's will," Li Changshou pointed to the sky, "This method of divination has no rationality, but it is a reminder given by God to the Emperor. The direct way.
Destiny is in Zishou, it is the will of Heaven.”
“Then, what is Junior Brother planning here?” Taoist Cihang said with a smile, “Is it just a wish? Tell the poor man, GodIs it hard to disobey the will and resist the law of heaven? Pindao has already known this truth. "
Li Changshou pointed at Da Yin City and said, "Sister, look again. "
Taoist Cihang looked down and saw that the court was retreating in the main hall. The minister and the great history of the Shang Kingdom who had confirmed the identity of the eldest son looked at the air with a faint smile.
Taoist Cihang was slightly surprised.
This is not the end.
Taoist Cihang stared at Da Shi for a while, and suddenly found this Da Shi. There was some eye contact with the female priest who was doing divination;
Taoist Cihang looked again and saw that there was a turtle shell hidden in the sleeve of the female priest. The characters on the cracks were the same as those in the temple. Only, exactly the same.
She couldn’t help but ask: “Is this God’s will or man’s will? ”
“It’s God’s will if God doesn’t stop it, and people’s plans are also considered as people’s wishes.” Li Changshou’s figure slowly turned into clouds and mist, leaving one or two words to Taoist Cihang, and his figure dispersed with the wind. .
“Please also tell me, Brother Guang Chengzi, ordinary planning is completely different from immortal calculations. It is better to do more than not do it at all. "
Taoist Cihang stood quietly on the cloud for a while, then shook his head and sighed, riding the cloud to Kunlun Mountain.
......
So, a few years later.
'Lonely, lonely'
In a quiet canyon at the junction of Nanzhou, Dongzhou and Zhongshenzhou, there was a mountain wall. A cave was revealed, and a middle-aged Taoist stepped out, looking at the horizon with his hands behind his back.
Why don't you go out for a walk again?
Black Panther's heart. I am a little restless. Although my practice here has been smooth and I have gradually achieved a good level of cultivation, which is much higher than in my previous life, my Taoist heart is becoming more and more difficult to settle down.
Although the world is huge, where will I go?
I was a Jie Jiao Immortal in my previous life, but in this life I am just a black panther with ordinary feet. I really have no shame in going back to Jin'ao Island to practice.
< p>In today's world, the human race is the protagonist. He is a demon race and he doesn't dare to wander around. He can easily be killed by demons.Over the years, he has also gone to the demon race. Several times.
He served as a small vanguard general under the Demon King in the Beizhou Monster Clan. As a result, Beizhou was suppressed by the Heavenly Court. Since then, he has also been in Dongzhou, but he was always depressed.
Alas...
I miss the shameless days with Miaomiao very much.
But I can only miss it. >
Let’s go for a walk again. It’s really too hard to practice without a companion.
So, Black Panther took out a bronze mirror and straightened his hair that he had carefully styled. , intentionally creating a few strands of white hair to highlight a sense of stability and maturity.
“Huh? "
In the grass not far away, a pair of eyes slowly opened, watching the back of the black panther leaving in the clouds, with some thoughts in his eyes.
This black panther, Finally moved.
