"It's already five o'clock in the morning, and you're still sitting in front of the main hall of Dongyue Temple sleeping! Please stand up, my commander!"
After the people from Beizhen Fusi took control of this place, the Banner Guards took over the security work at the entrance. Luo Sigong, as the newly appointed commander of the Jinyi Guards, became the number one lackey of the Ming Dynasty. At this time, it was time to shake off the dog hair.
Although he had gone to Beizhen Fusi before to accept the throne left by his predecessor, he did not expect that Emperor Wanli would have something to do this early in the morning, so he did not have time to receive him.
As soon as he entered, he acted like a minion, glared, and slapped the table with his big hand. The Taoist priest in red who had been dozing off had been frightened enough to wake up. At this moment, he suddenly stood up and stood still on the spot.
"You, you are..."
In the main hall of this temple, the Taoist priest in red sleeping in front of the Daiyue Hall is Miao Zhu. He is dressed in a red Taoist robe, a scarf on his head, a gold robe on his head, and a string of wooden slips.
Taoist officials with positions in the capital are dressed like this. If they are Taoist officials outside, they are dressed in green with gold, which looks particularly environmentally friendly...
Ji Xiang's clothes have not changed yet, because the things are not ready to be sent over, so he is still wearing the sky blue crane cloak. In fact, the one given by Emperor Wanli should be red and black, because among the high-level Taoist priests, there are
Those who are moral will be given a "soap-colored cloak".
The Taoist priest in red robes stood up and saw all the flying fish robes and a group of heavenly soldiers and generals. He was immediately frightened and didn't know what to say.
"Are you the temple blessing here?"
Luo Sigong asked him to stand still and asked, who was in front of him, and to report his household registration!
The big red Taoist said quickly:
"Reporting to your lord, Pindao was sent from Longhu Mountain by Zhengyi Guan. He is now affiliated with Taichang Temple's subordinate God Optimism, Erzhi Guan, and Dongyue Temple Miaozhu, Tian Fengyu."
Taichang Temple has an ancient origin. It existed in the Qin Dynasty. It was called Fengchang at that time. It was changed to Taichang after the Han Dynasty. It was one of the nine temples in the Tang Dynasty and one of the five temples in the Ming Dynasty. It is the highest authority in charge of rituals and music.
administrative agencies.
For example, they offer sacrifices to ancestors, comfort the gods, maintain temples, play music, sing and dance, beat gongs and drums, and formulate etiquette... The Imperial Medical Office is also an organization under Taichang Temple.
Shenzhen Optimism is also an institution under Taichang Temple.
The Shenwang Temple was built in the 11th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty and belongs to Taichang Temple. The original office was in Yingtianfu. In the 18th year of Yongle, it was moved to Shuntianfu. The office is located near the Temple of Heaven. It is responsible for worshiping heaven and earth, gods, Zonggao, and Sheji.
Music and dance at the time are in charge of officials such as Ti Dian and Zhi Guan.
The staff inside are all Taoist officials. Of course, the highest level among Taoist officials is a "Shen Optimistic Tip", which belongs to the sixth grade.
After all, the real makers of etiquette are still Confucianists, so the Taoist sect's sacrificial institution is just a facade in the Ming Court. The sixth-grade gods are optimistic about it, but in fact, for the ministers, this grade is considered too high.
Therefore, Shen Guanyin, the second assistant to the cabinet, would tell Ji Xiang to come and study. After all, only by studying can one become a higher official, and Ji Xiang's official status is that of a real official, and he belongs to the Confucian bureaucracy that has entered the serious eight classics.
, this is a big system, people like Shen Optimism are idle people who are outside the big system.
If you don't give up your Taoist identity, even if the emperor rewards you with an official status, you will be promoted to the fourth rank at most.
This is probably the difference between regular workers and contract workers.
The "Two Knowledge Views" mentioned by this temple blessing are the second knowledge views in the divine optimism. From the ninth level, it is truly the sesame and mung bean official.
Luo Sigong asked the temple blessing: "Is there anything unusual in Dongyue Temple last night?"
"Reporting to your lord, there was nothing unusual in Dongyue Temple last night. Pindao has been sitting here."
"I see you are sleeping so soundly. You don't know something is going on, right?"
Miao Zhu smiled awkwardly but politely.
Jin Yiwei's men searched the Dongyue Temple, carefully rummaging through every temple and every statue.
Beizhen Fusi's method was beyond Luo Sigong's imagination. This time, the one who came this time was Baolinghou, one of the three generals of Tianmen. He was in charge of the water method and could detect strange changes in the smallest detail. Miao Zhu Danfan made some unusual movements.
They will all be wiped out by him on the spot.
I saw white air rising from the eyes of this general, as big as eggs, and suddenly stopped and turned into two bright mirrors.
Before he went to the main hall, in the interior scene of Ji Xiang, the description of the divine card appeared:
[Baozhao Dharma Eyes: Also known as the Great Ming Treasure Mirror, there is white air in the two eyes as big as a chicken, which turns into two bright mirrors in front of the face. It can illuminate the twenty-four gods in one body, making the cave clear. It can also see fractal dispersed objects.
, the soul that discerns all matters of life and death, controls the changes of all demons, and uses all kinds of spirits and ghosts to prevent disasters from happening.]
The Baozhao Dharma Eye is detecting evil and strange things. When Tian is about to enter the main hall, he sees the statues of the seventy-six gods of the Yin Division on both sides. These statues are either white and cold, or green and fanged, or red and angry. To sum up,...
..None of the sculptures have a good face.
Also, the seventy-six statues in Dongyue Temple are the main gods of the underworld. If they are caught by the underworld, they will suffer. It is impossible for people with many underworld gods to smile and give you a good review.
Even if I put a smile on my face and ask you to give me a good review, would you dare not to do so? It seems that the "service" is not yet in place.
Of course, in addition to the Seventy-Six Divine Lords, there are many other statues, such as King of Medicine, Emperor Guan, Sanlang Dongyue, God of Joy, Emperor Wenchang, Lord Kitchen God, Emperor Zhenwu, etc. These are all statues for worship, and they are also
Even if they just let the gods enjoy their time, in fact, their relationship with the underworld is not that close.
As for the Seventy-Two Red Shops and the Seventy-six Yin Divisions, there are several divisions that do not have administrative red shops, but have separate shrines.
He entered the main hall and carefully observed all aspects of the Dongyue Temple. Suddenly he saw two statues. The incense in these two statues was out of order, and their appearance was also with closed eyes and a kind face, which was incompatible with the surrounding gods.
In Dharma's eyes, the faces of the two statues and the entire main body seem to be separated.
The general came to the temple to pray and asked:
"Tian Fengyu Temple Congratulations, I watched with my Dharma eyes. Why are the statues of the God of the Quick Report Si and the statue of the God of the Headmaster's Lotus Signing System moved, so that the incense of the Yinsi cannot be consecrated in the same position?"
His voice was cold and seemed emotionless, as if with his next words, if you said anything wrong, he would raise his hand and beat you to a pulp.
The Seventy-Sixth Division of the Yin Division is the Quick Reporting Division. Taoism believes that "retribution for good and evil follows like a shadow." The benefits or disasters that people encounter in daily life are all caused by their good and evil actions. The god of this division is Yue Fei.
But this Yue Fei is of course the Yin Division Fenfei. After all, Yue Fei has many various priesthoods, and the God of Quick Reporting Division is only one of the priesthoods.
"These two statues of the gods were not repaired five years ago. Where did these two statues come from?"
Temple Zhu said: "A few days ago, the face of the old statue suddenly cracked. I don't know why. I led some Taoist disciples to check it out. I thought it was caused by rats in the temple eating the statue."
"So I changed two faces for them. The incense was out of order. Maybe the statues themselves and the new faces haven't gotten along yet."
