The incense Shinto monks who were idle in various prefectures and cities actually accounted for more than 50% of the original Shinto monks.
This number is by no means huge.
What's more important.
Gu Changsheng believed that there must be quite a few among them who had the same idea as Yin Shang did not long ago, and believed that the court was doing things unfairly.
"This problem is like a time bomb! It must be solved!"
A light flashed in Gu Changsheng's eyes.
There were so many incense Shinto monks who were dissatisfied with the imperial court.
Once it is used by someone with intentions, the chain impact caused will be enough for him to kill Shen Zhuan before and make up for the losses suffered by Shinto again.
and.
In Gu Changsheng's original arrangement, these monks from the Incense Shinto would be arranged to enter the Jisi Guard and the city defense camp.
But the gods of each spiritual academy should still provide them with the most basic divine power of incense and the power of faith.
But now.
These gods have all become invisible again.
Needless to say.
Gu Changsheng can also guess that this is nothing more than the manipulation of the gods behind the scenes, just to make these incense and fire cultivators resentful.
"However, to a certain extent, it also creates opportunities for me!"
Gu Changsheng has every reason to believe it.
Gods do this.
Make it clear that you are doing it for yourself and for the empress.
The reason why this thunder has not exploded yet is simply that the time has not come yet.
Once the right time comes, they will definitely detonate this bomb.
And when it comes to the right time...
Gu Changsheng's heart suddenly moved and he looked towards the direction Alchi had left. A thought crossed his mind. He suddenly turned his head and looked at Yuan Cheng and Qi Ming next to him: "You two instructors, do you know why this barbarian envoy is here at this time?"
Coming to Beijing?"
Northern barbarian envoys often came to Beijing once every few years, and sometimes not even once in more than ten years.
But in recent years it has become somewhat more frequent.
I came here again this year, what’s going on?
"The barbarians want to open a border market, and if they can't open the market, they go south and threaten the imperial court. That's all."
Qi Ming said with a sneer, obviously extremely resentful towards the barbarians.
But Yuan Cheng knows a little better.
"That's what people say, but there is also a saying that the barbarians seem to have changed to a great khan recently. In order to consolidate his power, the great khan seems to be preparing to gather the tribes and launch a large-scale southward war."
The Northern Barbarians are not monolithic.
They are quite similar to the barbarians in Gu Changsheng's memory. They are more like a loose tribal alliance than a country.
However, this tribal alliance is more powerful than the grassland barbarians in Gu Changsheng's memory.
after all.
Among the prairie barbarians, no adult man can easily smash a bull to death with his fist!
Although the northern demons and barbarians invade the south frequently every year, in fact the tribes that go south are not the same every time, but several tribes go together. This year it may be these few, and next year it may be another few.
And this Alechi, who came to Tianjing City as an envoy this time, belongs to his tribe.
It is considered one of the largest tribes in the North, but its relationship with the Great Khan is somewhat distant.
"The Great Khan of the Northern Barbarians wants to summon all the tribes in the North to go south."
"And the tribal envoy from Alchi used this news as a blackmail."
If the imperial court does not agree to their request to open the market, they will join the forces of the Great Khan of the Northern Barbarians.
If they agree, they will contact several other close tribes and give up their plans to go south. Anyway, through the border market, they can still get what they want without having to pay the price of blood.
"This is it!"
A cold light flashed in Gu Changsheng's eyes.
It's almost mid-autumn now.
If these barbarians go south, they will take action within a few months at the latest.
And then.
The Beidi Prefecture will definitely dispatch troops and horses to fight northward against the Northern Barbarian army.
By then.
Among these state capitals, the incense monks who are dissatisfied with the imperial court are the best targets to cooperate with each other inside and outside!
Gu Changsheng took a deep breath.
A cold light flashed in a pair of eyes.
"This problem must be solved, and it must be solved as soon as possible!"
The current situation of the imperial court.
Although Gu Changsheng has not yet become a chief official and does not know the details, it is only what he saw in the local area.
What Da Zhou needs now is to recuperate and recuperate, not large-scale battles.
so.
This time when the barbarians went south, they couldn't give up the idea. At the very least, they had to minimize the losses on the Zhou side!
"call……"
Gu Changchang let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately.
After meeting Yin Shang, he learned from his mouth the current difficulties faced by these monks of Incense and Fire Shinto.
Gu Changsheng already had a preliminary idea in his mind.
This was also the reason why he specifically asked Yin Shang to stay.
He wanted to use Yin Shang, a monk from Incense and Fire Shinto, to verify whether his previous conjecture and plan was feasible.
"If it is feasible, the powder keg of Incense God Cultivator can not only eliminate it invisible, but also give the court another vital force!"
"Thank you two coaches for the information. Next, I want to ask you both for one more thing..."
An hour later.
In a small courtyard next to the Divine Arm Hall.
This is considered the property of the God's Arm Hall. In the early years, when there were many apprentices in the God's Arm Hall, some disciples would be arranged to live here, and they only had to pay a small amount of room fees.
In Tianjing City, the imperial capital of the Zhou Dynasty, where every inch of land and every inch of land is precious.
Such benefits are not bad at all.
It's just that now, the Divine Arm Hall is somewhat in decline, coupled with the war last year.
This small courtyard has been vacant for many years, but now it was borrowed by Gu Changsheng to house Yin Shang, whom he rescued from the barbarians.
Yin Shang looked at Gu Changsheng with complicated eyes: "Why do you do this?"
He already knew Gu Changsheng's identity from Qi Ming and Yuan Cheng.
And what Gu Changsheng said before.
It also made Yin Shang truly reflect.
He also really became clearer about Nankang Mansion, the actions of Nankang City God Cheng Di, and the actions of the incense monks in Nankang Lingyuan.
certainly.
What's more, it's what Yin Shang himself saw and heard when he was in Tianjing City Spiritual Academy.
Although the Spiritual Courtyard in Tianjing City is at the feet of the Emperor, its actions are somewhat restrained.
But even so.
The disciples of Tianjing Spiritual Academy who practice Incense and Fire Shinto are still no different from Xuanling Academy in Nankang Prefecture in some aspects.
The same blame-shifting, the same pretense.
But it is true to say so.
Looking at Gu Changsheng, who he had been secretly cursing not long ago, he was actually standing in front of him now, and he had become his benefactor.
Yin Shang still felt a little uncomfortable, and the atmosphere became quite awkward for a while.
