Wufu Chapter 666 How could it be so fast? Half a month after the enthronement ceremony of the master of Chixin Temple in Higurashi, a foreign delegation led by Taoist monks rushed to the divine capital.
As soon as the news came out, the city of God exploded, and the people resisted these monks from entering the city. In a short time, a wave of waves broke out, and people from all walks of life spontaneously walked out of their homes and paraded on the streets.
Among the six yamen, except for the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry, the other three places were also directly blocked by the people.
Many people even rushed to the imperial city and blocked the palace gate to ask His Highness the Crown Prince to speak sternly and not allow these people to enter the divine capital.
This kind of thing has not happened in the city of God for many years, but the young Crown Prince was sitting in the imperial study, frowning deeply while listening to the news from the chamberlain who came to report.
The monks from the south wanted to come to God's Capital to worship him, so he naturally knew that it would not be that simple, but since the other party had such a valid reason, he could not refuse, but he never thought that the people of God's Capital would react so violently.
At this time, he was put on the oil pan and roasted.
How can this not make people anxious?
"Your Highness, for such a big matter, I'm afraid we need to discuss it with the courtiers."
The chamberlain reminded in a low voice, looking at the Crown Prince who was so different from His Majesty the Emperor, his eyes were full of love and affection.
"Yes, let Sir Zaifu and Prince Ning enter the palace immediately."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince raised his eyebrows and quickly made a decision.
The chamberlain hummed in a low voice, then suddenly reacted and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, don't you want to announce your command?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince glanced at the chamberlain, and said with a bitter smile: "Gu's brother, even if I want to see him at this moment, I'm afraid he doesn't want to see Gu, that's all, I won't announce that he is him for the time being."
As early as Emperor Liang left the capital, he had been waiting for Chen Chao to take the initiative to enter the palace, but the news he received these days was that Chen Chao had never left the bamboo tower, and was said to be in retreat.
Although he didn't know whether this matter was true or not, since Chen Chao said so, he would not force others to do anything. Whenever his brother wanted to see him, he would naturally come to see him.
As for him, can he refuse?
This prince's position was rejected by his elder brother, so it was his turn.
…
…
Master Zaifu and the eldest prince who is now Prince Ning soon arrived in the imperial city.
After entering the imperial study and showing the two of them their seats, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said straight to the point: "Now that you all know the situation in the capital of the gods, what should this be like? I would like to ask you for your advice."
After saying this, His Royal Highness looked at the two people here quietly, waiting for their answers.
Master Zaifu was silent for a moment and said: "Fang Wai gathered to go to the capital of the gods this time, presumably for two purposes."
"I came here first to see if His Majesty is still in the Divine Capital."
"Secondly, I want to see how we will treat them in the future if His Majesty is no longer here, whether it will be the same as when His Majesty was here, or something else. Therefore, they will never remain content during this trip to the capital of the gods."
Although Lord Zaifu is only a civil servant, after all, he has been in the court for so many years, what has he seen and heard?
His knowledge is naturally very keen.
Prince Ning said softly: "But now the people of Shendu are unwilling to let them come, let alone... ahem... let them do something in Shendu."
Prince Ning's face turned pale, and he couldn't help but cough a few times in the middle of his speech. The eldest son of His Majesty the Emperor was in poor health with each passing day. It seemed that he might not be able to appear in court in the near future.
The hall is in session.
"Brother Emperor..."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at Prince Ning with some worry.
Prince Ning waved his hand weakly and said with a wry smile: "This is an old problem. I'm afraid it won't get better. Your Highness doesn't need to worry. If you have to go back one day, it will just be to go underground to find the Queen Mother and the Imperial Sister."
Hearing these two titles, His Highness the Crown Prince's eyes also felt a little sad.
"I am in a dilemma now. The reasons of the monks outside are legitimate and it is difficult to refuse, but the people are like this. If I allow them to enter the capital, I am afraid that I will lose the support of the people. If I don't allow them, I am afraid that these monks will use this to make trouble. So
At that time, I was in a precarious situation, and it was really not suitable for me to be at odds with the other side."
His Highness the Crown Prince had never thought about one day ascending to the throne of God, but he never thought that being an emperor would be so troublesome.
At this moment, he actually sincerely admired his father.
Over the past ten years, he has managed Daliang in such an orderly and prosperous way, which is not an easy task.
Lord Zaifu sighed, "At this point, Fang Wai cannot refuse. The people can only try to appease the people. Your Highness still needs to exercise restraint."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at Prince Ning and asked, "Brother Huang, does he feel the same way?"
Prince Ning was silent for a moment and said, "Has His Highness asked him?"
Although he here did not name anyone, everyone knows who he is talking about.
Lord Zaifu was a little silent.
His Highness the Crown Prince's face looked a little unnatural.
"When my father left, he also asked His Highness to consult him on military and state affairs."
Prince Ning looked at his younger brother, whom he didn't know very well. He was silent for a moment, and then said sincerely: "My father has almost never made any wrong decisions in his life. I'm afraid it's because of his uniqueness that he believes in him so much.
"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not respond, but turned to look at Lord Zaifu and asked: "Does Lord Zaifu think so too?"
"According to my experience, even if Commander Chen is here, there is nothing he can do. In this situation, there is only one way."
Master Zaifu spoke softly, not loudly.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince nodded and said: "That's it. I'll leave it to you, Master Zaifu, to appease the people."
Master Zaifu nodded, then stood up and left.
Prince Ning also stood up with difficulty, but before he could walk out of the imperial study room, the elder brother of His Royal Highness the Prince stopped, held his hand on the door frame, and said with difficulty: "Your Highness, after our father left, this beam will depend on us.
People cannot hold up and cannot live without him.”
His Royal Highness the Prince's young face showed no expression. He just looked at Prince Ning in front of him quietly.
Prince Ning sighed slightly.
His Royal Highness the Prince said softly: "I always regard him as my elder brother, but apart from that, I also look at Daliang. After all, we are not ordinary brothers. In the court, there is a saying of king and minister."
Prince Ning said with emotion: "No matter what, my heart is for Daliang. Your Highness needs to know."
After saying this, Prince Ning no longer hesitated, just turned around and walked out.
Although he also competed with the second prince for the throne back then, there was an obvious difference between him and the second prince. The second prince could collude with Fang Wai for the throne, just for himself, but from the beginning, he knew who he was and what he could do.
What can and cannot be done.
So after the dust of the crown prince position settled, Prince Ning no longer thought about these things, and instead focused on doing what he should do.
At this point, he may not be the kind of son that Emperor Liang likes, but at this point, I'm afraid even Emperor Liang can't find any problems.
At least the surname Chen was not insulted.
Prince Ning slowly walked towards the outside of the palace, coughing continuously as he walked.
"Cough cough cough..."
Prince Ning coughed so much that he had to cover his mouth with a handkerchief.
But after a long time, when he stopped coughing, he took off the handkerchief, which was already covered with blood.
Prince Ning laughed at himself, put away his handkerchief, and straightened his body as much as possible.
It's just that he's too bloated, and it's hard to tell if he straightens his body at this moment.
…
…
Three days later, the monks who were united by many sects from outside the country finally arrived in the divine capital.
Among the team, there were mostly Taoist monks wearing yellow and purple Taoist robes.
Officials from the Ministry of Rites stood on one side of the city gate, welcoming the monks who came from various sects.
It's just that the long street was empty, and there wasn't a single person in sight.
A purple-robed Taoist stood at the front looking at the empty divine city, wondering what he was thinking.
This purple-robed Taoist is named Zhenye. He has set foot in Wangyou a few years ago and has a reputation in the world. However, he is not of the same lineage as the previous temple master and Zhanglu Zhenren, but belongs to another lineage.
The Taoists of that lineage have always been at odds with the Guanzhu and Zhanglu. When their masters were still alive, they competed with the Taoists of this lineage for the position of the Guanzhu, but later their masters won.
One lineage keeps withering.
Nowadays, although Zhenye Zhenren still has some reputation in the world, within the Chixin Temple, he is no longer as revered as he was back then.
This time he took this opportunity to come to the capital of God, also wanting to revive the reputation of their lineage.
Looking at the Minister of Rites beside him, Taoist Zhenye suddenly smiled and asked: "May I ask where His Royal Highness is?"
After hearing this, the expression of the Minister of Rites changed, but then he said: "His Royal Highness is busy with state affairs, so I'm afraid he won't be able to come to greet the real person."
Taoist Zhen Ye said oh, pretending to be confused and said: "I have forgotten that the crown prince is in charge of Daliang at the moment. But in the past, when we entered the divine capital and His Majesty the Emperor didn't come, there would always be a prince. Why?
Nowadays, this rule is gone?"
Zhenye's voice became colder and colder, and her attitude of always holding a high position in the world was naturally revealed, which was very oppressive.
The Minister of Rites looked a little embarrassed. Before today, they had been summoned by His Highness the Crown Prince, who had special instructions for today's affairs. The most important thing was to prevent them from having any conflicts with people outside the country.
Just when the Minister of Rites was about to speak, Taoist Zhenye suddenly smiled and said: "It's okay if I can't see His Highness the Crown Prince at the moment. When will your Excellency arrange for us to enter the palace?"
The Minister of Rites was covered in sweat. After hearing these words, he tremblingly said: "How many days will it take for the real person to enter the palace to pay homage to His Highness the Crown Prince?"
"Bye bye?"
Taoist Zhen Ye seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
The Minister of Rites was sweating like rain.
Fortunately, in the end, Master Zhenye just patted the Minister of Rites on the shoulder, turned around and boarded the carriage.
Seeing this scene, the monks from all over the world all smiled in amusement.
As for the officials in Daliang Dynasty, they all dared to be angry but dared not speak out.
…
…
Naturally, there was no way to hide the fact that monks outside the city had entered the capital. The scolding in the public was getting louder and louder, almost lifting the roof off. The academy thought there would be no disturbance, but unexpectedly, it turned out that there would be no disturbance.
Some people are excited.
Many students gathered together and were quite dissatisfied with the words of the foreign monks at the city gate that day. Although they were all students of the academy, I don’t know when they started. Many of them already regarded themselves as the main pillars.
A member.
After all, their current director has arrived in the north.
Xie Nandu has been in the academy almost all the time these days. She just finished talking with a few senior teachers. She walked out a little tiredly and came to the bank of Nanhu. When she saw the students gathered together and talked about that day, she
He stopped and listened for a while.
Wang Kuan didn't know when he came here. He looked at Xie Nandu and said with some emotion: "The academy is really different from before."
In the academy before, students generally didn't pay much attention to these things, but now they will take the initiative to talk about them.
Xie Nandu said: "When Your Majesty was here, they were mostly dissatisfied with Your Majesty, thinking that His Majesty's methods of governing the world were too iron-blooded. But in fact, they will soon discover that without Your Majesty, although this beam will not fall immediately, it will be very difficult.
Stand up straight like before."
Wang Kuan nodded and said: "I don't know that the previous world was good, because in that good world, the future world will not be as good as before, so they will also miss the previous world."
Xie Nandu said: "The previous world was brought about by His Majesty, but the future world will require more efforts from us."
Wang Kuan was silent for a while and said: "If those monks do something excessive in the city of God, should our academy do something?"
"It should be done, but it cannot be done."
Xie Nandu stared at the lake and said: "The academy can work together with Daliang, but they can only remain silent at this moment because they are hesitating about which choice to make. No matter how much we do, Daliang will always become the weaker side."
"Your Majesty is not here, I really don't know what they can do."
Wang Kuan sighed. After all, besides being an academy student, he was also a citizen of Daliang.
Xie Nandu smiled and said: "When His Majesty is away, it is naturally his turn to do it."
"He has never been a good-tempered person, so I am not surprised by anything he does. I am just curious when he will stand up and do something."
Xie Nandu rubbed his head, "If the academy hadn't really been unable to leave now, I would have gone and asked him personally."
Wang Kuan smiled bitterly and said: "He is just in the other side of the world now, what can he do?"
Xie Nandu said: "But when he was still an unknown warrior, he dared to kill those Qi Refiners."

Three chapters today, about 10,000 words. Again, the fee is based on the number of words, not a fixed amount for each chapter, so it has never been said that I can earn as much money as a long chapter by writing a short chapter.
In addition, this chapter is of course regarded as repaying the debt, and I will continue to pay it off tomorrow.
Some people died, but not completely...
