Chapter 712: The inheritance of the Za family; the current way out for the demon clan
If it were taught by people in the past, I'm afraid they might not be able to control Li Shimin.
But now Li Chunfeng's magical method is definitely considered to be first-rate in the three realms... Moreover, Li Chunfeng also has a trump card, "Your Majesty, you don't want Sanzang Saint Buddha to know that you are an emperor who tampered with national history, right?"
Li Shimin values his reputation most. If there are not so many immortals in this world, perhaps the truth of history can only be written by the victors.
But in this world, the situation is obviously different.
There are many historical witnesses who know the inside story of that period of history very well, and Li Shimin is not the one who can cover the sky with one hand.
In addition, he now has a new goal... Although the Xuanwu Gate incident was indeed a thorn in his heart, he didn't care too much about the records in national history.
Because he figured out one thing, as long as his achievements are higher, what happened to the Xuanwu Sect back then will only prove his correctness.
Not to mention that he now has hundreds of years of extra life, and the future can still be controlled in his own hands.
But from then on, under the guidance of Li Chunfeng, the People's Education gradually withdrew from the ranks of historians... Since Li Shimin had set a precedent, he was not afraid that future kings would follow suit.
And once something like this happens, even if your emperor says that he did not interfere in the revision and compilation of national history, the credibility of national history will still plummet.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to quit being a historian and go it alone.
Li Shimin did not stop the People's Education Historian's behavior. To be honest...it was indeed his fault that he had to read the history of the country back then, but Xu Jingzong's revised manuscript made him feel really comfortable reading it.
.
Li Shimin found it difficult to resist what he saw as a trick of substituting another thing, pretending to be someone else, or even making things out of thin air.
He just wanted to beautify the "Xuanwumen Incident" with Spring and Autumn style... But he didn't expect that Xu Jingzong directly raised troops from his old Li family in Taiyuan and started to revise it. Why did his father make the wrong decision?
, it was Li Shimin who turned the tide and saved the Tang army from fire and water... The eldest brother Li Jiancheng was jealous of the virtuous, made many unintended moves before the battle, and secretly held Li Shimin back, etc...
Moreover, this Xu Jingzong was worthy of being the eighteenth bachelor of the Qin Palace back then. Although his character was not good, his power was indeed extraordinary.
If Li Shimin were not the person involved and knew everything about that year...it would be difficult not to believe that what Xu Jingzong wrote is the truth.
However, it is not without loopholes. There will certainly be loopholes in fabricated things... Moreover, there are so many pairs of eyes watching in the Three Realms, which makes Li Shimin give up the idea of revising the history of the country.
Using history as a mirror, we can know the ups and downs... The real historical records are a very precious asset for Li Shimin and later generations of the Tang Dynasty.
Xu Jingzong... was eventually left idle. If it was not necessary... it would be difficult for Li Shimin to use him again.
And Xu Jingzong was by no means an ordinary person. Taking advantage of the great fortune of the Tang Dynasty and the great prosperity of the human race... he was awarded the position of majoring in national history, which actually gave him a huge opportunity in the Hongwen Hall.
Although the hundreds of schools of thought at that time gradually disappeared after the Han Dynasty, each of the hundreds of schools of thought had its own unique mainstream thoughts that were passed down to later generations. Only one school was more special...that was the Zajia. After all, the Zajia had always been "cultivating Confucianism"
"The goodness of ink is to sum up the essence of the law" and draw on the strengths of others... It is said to be "all-inclusive of hundreds of schools of thought", but it does not have its own unique thoughts.
Except for the truly top figures among the Zajia family... In fact, most of the Zajia disciples know a little bit about various schools of thought, but they are not proficient in any of them.
After all, not everyone has the talent to learn everything from a hundred schools of thought.
Even representatives of the Miscellaneous School, Lu Buwei, Huainan King Liu An and Shizi Shijiao, all have their own specialties and are not truly proficient in all the hundreds of schools of thought. However, the characteristic of the school of "combining Confucianism and Mohism with the name of Law" has still been recognized
The inheritance...it just has no successors and gradually declines.
It was in the Hongwen Hall that Xu Jingzong studied "Lü Shi Chun Qiu" and "Huai Nan Zi", and gained insights... which were inherited by the Za family.
Xu Jingzong's talents were undoubted, and Li Shimin also made the best use of them, so he placed him in the Tang Academy where he could study the ways of miscellaneous families.
Xu Jingzong himself is not discouraged. This seems to be a sign of idleness for him, but if he can really succeed, he will not have no chance of making a comeback.
Moreover, Xu Jingzong also met a Taoist friend in the Tang Dynasty Academy... Although the other person was from a Taoist sect, he was not pure... but he had a very deep interest in the miscellaneous theory.
... then became good friends with Xu Jingzong.
This good friend of Xu Jingzong is no one else. He is the first white bat in the Three Realms and one of the current candidates for the Eight Immortals - Zhang Guolao.
Although Zhang Guolao was taught by Lao Tzu, I did not take him into his sect. However, Zhang Guolao has been pretending to be a Taoist priest since then...seriously speaking, he is not actually a serious Taoist disciple.
However, his understanding of the Taoism is quite profound, which is why he can be a doctor of lectures in the Tang Dynasty Academy... Because of his profound "experience", many students like to take his classes.
.
Nowadays, he is somewhat famous in the Tang Academy.
Although Zhang Guolao is not too young, his exploration of knowledge has not stopped... The various schools of thought in the Tang Dynasty Academy are basically in a state of unprotected communication with each other.
Among them, whether it was Zhang Guolao or Xu Jingzong... they all learned a lot of useful things from other people.
Tolerant and inclusive.
This is the development theme of this era, and the Tang Academy is just the tip of the iceberg.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! You must know that the entire Tang Dynasty is now promoting the "unity of three religions". Once this initiative is completed, the national destiny of the Tang Dynasty will probably be even better.
Floor... By then, other forces in the Three Realms may really have to live under the oppression of the Tang Dynasty.
If we say that in the past, the creatures in the Three Realms would have thought that the Tang Dynasty was just dreaming, but now... they basically will not doubt whether the Tang Dynasty is capable of achieving this, because it is only a matter of time.
In particular, Li Shimin successfully survived the emperor's death and increased his lifespan by at least two hundred years... Even the time that was originally the most urgent for the human race does not seem to be a big restriction now.
.
...
Outside Chang'an.
Bai Ze and Liangshan Old Demon actually did not leave immediately because they accidentally discovered the whereabouts of another uninvited guest.
He went to Chang'an alone but did not dare to step into the territory of Chang'an. He was undoubtedly the bat ancestor who wanted to assassinate Zhang Guolao and seize the position of candidate for the Eight Immortals from Zhang Guolao.
The Bat Ancestor is not careless. He has basically cultivated his stealth powers to the extreme. He is on guard against the roaring dog, the six-eared macaque, and even listens in the underworld... But he never imagined that he would be here.
Encountered Bai Ze by chance.
Of course, the Bat Ancestor thought he was hiding well, and had no idea that his every move was already under Bai Ze's nose.
If we talk about "hide and seek", then Bai Ze has the highest rank.
The Bat Ancestor is undoubtedly a dwarf in front of Bai Ze. He has not even noticed any trace of Bai Ze until now.
Of course, Bai Ze knows the reputation of the Bat Ancestor... Bai Ze also knows exactly what Yuan Tiangang did in Beiju Luzhou... Bai Ze also sees what the Bat Ancestor is thinking in his mind now.
Seven, seven, eight, eight.
The old Liangshan demon on the side asked Bai Ze: "This beast is sneaking around Chang'an, and it doesn't look like a good kind."
Bai Ze didn't respond after hearing this. The eldest brother didn't laugh at the second brother... The two of them were not much better, or even worse... The bat ancestor probably didn't have the guts to face Xuan.
The armored cavalry takes action.
Sometimes Bai Ze even thought that if he and this fool were not old acquaintances, I would never help him plan.
The old demon from Liangshan might have sensed Bai Ze's gaze, and then realized that what he said just now seemed to be talking about himself... so he said again, "If I catch him, it will be regarded as a great achievement."
, to offset the merits and demerits of what I did to hurt people back then?"
Bai Ze no longer wants to pay attention to him... Not to mention that Sanzang Holy Buddha's merits are merits and faults are faults... There has never been a saying that merits and demerits balance each other. At most, merit should be rewarded, and faults should also be rewarded.
accept punishment.
But... of course Bai Ze knows the details of this Liangshan old demon... Although he has not deliberately explored it before, he said that he had hurt people before. Bai Ze was afraid of being implicated, so he used his magical power to find out.
Looking at the past of the old demon from Liangshan... I found that there was indeed a reason for the other person's injury. At least it was not within the scope of the transcendence of Sanzang Saint Buddha.
In addition, he was still the one injured in Dongsheng Shenzhou more than a hundred years ago... It doesn't even count as breaking the laws of the Tang Dynasty.
These two points basically determined that when Datang faced the surrender of the old demon from Liangshan, even if it did not accept it, it would not take action against it.
But Bai Ze believed that the possibility that the Tang Dynasty would not accept the Liangshan Old Demon was still relatively low... However, Bai Ze did not expect that the Liangshan Old Demon would be afraid of the "Great Sun Buddha Flame" that would basically not be used against him.
, simply did not dare to surrender to the Tang Dynasty.
Even now, when he saw this sneaky bat ancestor, he was still thinking about whether his merits and demerits could be balanced.
Fortunately, joining the Tang Dynasty is not the only option. With the old demon of Liangshan himself, as long as he goes to any force and shows his identity, he will basically be welcomed as a guest... But he thinks this
This is something that will discredit Jie Jiao and must not be done.
Even when walking outside, he tries his best to hide his identity and never says to the outside world that he is a disciple of Jie Jiao.
His black robe and cloak is the spiritual treasure that Bai Ze gave him to hide his whereabouts... Even Liangshan's foundation was only able to develop to its current situation with Bai Ze's help. It's a pity... because
His own impulse was ruined.
Fortunately, the four disciples did not resist stubbornly, and they did not even organize any effective resistance, so they allowed others to attack the mountain gate... What made the old demon from Liangshan laugh and cry the most was that at this time, they were still fighting among themselves...
It’s really impossible to hold on to the wall.
The old demon from Liangshan was not angry because they surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. After all, surrendering to the Tang Dynasty was a way out that Bai Ze had designed for him... Of course, Bai Ze's vision was unquestionable.
Settlement can only be regarded as a step to get started. If you want to run it for a long time... it is not easy.
Of course, if the old demon from Liangshan was willing to reveal his true name, there might be a chance...but his self-esteem would not allow him to do that.
Without Jie Jiao's blessing, it would be even more difficult to accomplish this thing with his strength alone.
You must know that in the current Three Realms, there are very few big demons who can dominate the mountains. Even the bigger demon mountains in Beiju Luzhou have been cleaned up, let alone the basic area in Nanfangbuzhou.
On a continent occupied by humans.
The demon kings in Xizhou were eliminated when Sanzang Saint Buddha went to the west... Nowadays, there are only a few who can monopolize a mountain, and these demon kings also have similar characteristics.
, the first is to be kind to others; the second is to have a deep foundation or background; the third is to have strong strength.
Among these three points, the first two are essential...the third point is not inevitable.
Just like the lion kings of the seven lion mountains in Yuhua Prefecture... They have always been kind to people, which is famous in the local area, and their heel is also very deep. They are the grandsons of Jiuling Yuansheng...
Taiyi saved Kutianzun's lineage, and Taiyi saved Kutianzun by being the Emperor Qinghua of the East, one of the six emperors of heaven. Of course, ordinary people with this background would not dare to provoke him.
Like the fox girl from Thousand Fox Cave in Wanku Mountain, she has all three... Although her heels are ordinary, her background should not be underestimated... Master Yuding has officially taken the fox girl under his sect.
, gave the other party the title of master and apprentice... Moreover, Fox Sister has always had a good relationship with Yang Jian Nezha and the Three Holy Mothers. Coupled with the blessing of her own strength... even the Jade Emperor wants to recruit her to heaven.
.
It's a pity that although today's fox sister has not changed in kindness, she is no longer the simple little fox she used to be. She has also given up her desire to become an immortal. What's more, the only one who wanted to become an immortal back then was the fifth brother.
..Fox sister, she just wants to be with Fifth Brother.
Otherwise, when the Queen Mother suggested to her that she be called "Fairy Qiong Yao", she would not have said such words as "if my fifth brother cannot become an immortal, I will not become an immortal either".
In today's Three Realms, especially for the demon clan, their living space is getting smaller and smaller... If they cannot achieve the above three points, then they will only have a limited number of ways out.
Joining Tianting or Datang seems to be the best solution at the moment.
For the monsters in Luzhou, Beiju, they can also choose to build their own new home with Samantabhadra; although the monsters in Xizhou can still become ordained, it depends on which Buddhist temple dares to accept them.
There are also some demon clans in Dongzhou who have agreed to become the guardian spirit beasts of various immortal sects...
In short, everyone is finding their own way out.
Bai Ze, Liangshan Old Demon and Bat Ancestor... are actually looking for a way out.
