352, Bai Xiang wants to leave our orphans and widows? (Please complete the order)
Zongshenguan is the former residence of Li Zhi, Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, with the specifications of a royal palace.
There are more than 20 various building complexes with exquisite layout and large scale.
There are pavilions, terraces, pavilions, and winding corridors.
Yang Yuhuan was sent to Zongshenguan to practice Taoism since she was a child, so she had her own boudoir in the back courtyard and was served by maids dressed in women's crowns.
This was not the first time that Bai Gui came to Yang Yuhuan's boudoir.
He stood at the door.
Next to the courtyard pillars, there are several pots of coral scenery. After going down the corridor, there are three or four rockeries, wrapped with purple wisteria, and a swing swinging gently in the wind on the side of the rockery.
There was a faint rustling sound coming from the hinged window.
He could tell that this was Yang Yuhuan changing clothes.
Although he said he didn't care about a Taoist robe, Yang Yuhuan insisted on letting him come with her. After she changed her clothes, she returned the Taoist robe to him.
The boudoir is not far from the Laojun Hall in the front hall.
As a matter of course, he and Yang Yuhuan came over together.
"Why does it take so long to change clothes? Women are really troublesome."
Bai Gui waited at the door for a while and thought to himself.
But at this moment, the boudoir door creaked open.
Yang Yuhuan walked out lightly.
She did not change into a Taoist robe, but was dressed like an ordinary girl. On top was a narrow-sleeved silver shirt made of fine silk, lined with a green tube top, and underneath was a Chenghu Bailiu skirt, with jade feet wearing apricot-colored embroidered shoes.
.
Each jade step, the fairy posture and the lost appearance.
Fold your slender waist and take small steps, showing your bright wrists in light gauze.
She held the folded Taoist robe, stopped three or four steps in front of Bai Gui, gave Bai Gui a gift, her cheeks were slightly red, and whispered: "Yuhuan thanked the second senior brother, if it hadn't been for the second senior brother's protection today."
, maybe Yuhuan will make a big fool of herself."
"You and I are brothers and sisters, and we should support each other."
"Little junior sister, don't be offended."
Bai Gui took the Taoist robe smoothly and was about to put it on again when he smelled the fragrance of the Taoist robe. He looked up again and saw that Yang Yuhuan's face had been painted with pink and white, which made her look so charming and charming.
If we were to say that without makeup before, she looked like hibiscus, but now that she has applied powder, she looks even more delicate and gorgeous.
Heavy makeup and light makeup are always appropriate.
No wonder it took so long.
"Second Senior Brother, please don't move. Why don't you... Yuhuan put on this robe for Second Senior Brother? This is Yuhuan's insignificant apology."
Yang Yuhuan raised his eyes and bit his lip.
If you want to repay Bai Gui's kindness, just this little thing is naturally not enough. But if you are not willing to do even the little things, how can you say repay?
"this……"
Bai Gui took a deep breath and glanced at Yang Yuhuan again.
Understood some things.
Women should look after those who please themselves.
It is impossible to say that Yang Yuhuan only wears a women's Taoist robe. But the reason for dressing up like this is that the thoughts of her daughter's family are already obvious.
Before Bai Gui refused, Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but "seize" the Taoist robe from Bai Gui again.
A faint fragrance rushed into the nose.
Yang Yuhuan approached, put Bai Gui's robe back on, and tied the belt patiently.
…
What Bai Gui said to Hou Shaowei was not false. The Tang Dynasty was now on the right track. Zhang Jiuling, who he chose to replace him as prime minister, has grown up and will not lead to a situation where he will die as soon as he steps down as prime minister.
.
As for Li Linfu, although he was regarded as his confidant, he was also more afraid of people who talked sweetly and had swords. His use of treacherous ministers did not mean that he trusted the treacherous ministers. He just thought that Li Linfu worked hard and made great achievements, so he was placed outside and served as a feudal official.
In addition, in terms of the central structure, his efforts over the years have finally yielded results. The Xujun has strengthened the power of his ministers. Although the emperor will not become just a symbol, the emperor's power has shrunk much compared to the original.
After all, a minister who can serve as prime minister is less likely to be fatuous.
As for the emperor, this may not be possible.
As for governance in various parts of the world, the Zhou Dynasty's method was also adopted, with the princes taking equal care of the vassal and the governor's palace to maintain the rule.
"Perform meritorious deeds, establish good deeds, establish virtue, and achieve the three immortals. I have completed them all..."
"Though I did not write about Confucianism such as Xinxue and Neo-Confucianism, the Qin method has been used for hundreds of generations. I reformed the Tang Dynasty and embarked on an unprecedented path. The reform was successful, and I summarized my experience and wrote a book.
If it is passed down to future generations, it can be regarded as a success..."
Walking on the road to the palace, Bai Gui thought carefully.
"To establish virtue means to create laws and provide benefits to the people."
His political reform was successful, his administration was harmonious, and his virtue was immortal.
"Making meritorious service means rescuing disaster and eliminating difficulties, and meritorious deeds are beneficial to the time."
As a general, he destroyed Nanzhao and Tubo, and as a prime minister, he ruled the Tang Dynasty, destroyed the Turks, Japan, and other countries in the Western Regions, and established rule in the world, and his merits are immortal.
"To establish a statement means to say that it has its essence and that it has enough reason to be passed on."
He studied the wisdom of scholars in the Taixue Society, and compiled the reform experience himself. He summarized the reform practices of the past dynasties and his own reform experience for so many years, which is enough to be remembered for centuries and make his words immortal.
As for the study of psychology, Neo-Confucianism, etc., although it is feasible, it is not your own. After all, it is not your own. It is just a poem or a word. It is a whole set of theories. If you want to steal its fruits, you must not be consistent in your words and deeds.
, the unity of knowledge and action, but at least in the theory of one's own governance, it is consistent with one's own orthodoxy.
Otherwise, if you don’t trust your own orthodoxy and want others to believe it, then it would be a joke.
Bai Gui is not greedy for power.
Compared with immortals who have a long life and a long time to see, the prime minister has more power, but it is not what he wants. It is just because being the prime minister and assistant makes it easier to accumulate good deeds and merits, so he became the prime minister and assistant.
Some days ago, he had already felt that he had accumulated enough 300 good deeds to become an Earth Immortal.
The Tang Dynasty is now in his hands and has developed to its extreme. Even if he serves as prime minister again, even if he can accumulate a lot of merits, compared with the past, the difference will not be sporadic.
The accumulation of good deeds is enough. What is missing now is the realm. Once the realm is reached, he will become an earthly immortal.
If Taoist leaders like Hou Shaowei do not have the opportunity, even if they succeed in the Nine Returns of Gold Liquid and achieve the realm of Earth Immortal, they will only be "fake Earth Immortals". Although their life spans are extended, they will not live in the blessed land of Cave Heaven as immortals forever.
Qualification for immortality.
"If you perform three hundred good deeds, you can become an earthly immortal and live in the caves of the Five Mountains." - "The Secret Sutra"
Because three hundred good deeds are like an ID card issued by the heaven. Without these three hundred good deeds, even if you reach the realm, it is just a black account. You must accumulate enough good deeds before you can continue to pursue the path of heaven.
Of course, thanks to the issuance of Five Emperors' Money, his master Hou Shaowei can earn a certain amount of good deeds every day. Although it will not be as fast as Bai Gui's accumulation of three hundred good deeds, it is still possible to accumulate three hundred good deeds in his lifetime.
Matters of time.
Resigning as prime minister cannot be accomplished in one sentence. The backend must be handled well.
Otherwise, a lot of mess will be left behind, and the good deeds will be greatly compromised. If the Tang Dynasty continues to maintain stability, he can still have good deeds. After all, he is the third immortal.
The honor of a gentleman will be cut down in five lifetimes.
It will last at least a hundred years.
The first thing to do was to tell his ally, Concubine Wu Hui, about this.
Concubine Wu Hui controlled the harem and the little emperor created a lot of conveniences during his reign.
Taiji Palace, Xianju Palace.
The young emperor, the longevity king Li Hao, came to the palace to pay his respects to Concubine Wu Hui.
More than eight years later, the longevity king Li Hao has also turned fifteen years old, the young emperor, and looks like a handsome young man.
"Father, you are here too."
The longevity king Li Hao was a little surprised, but his expression returned to normal immediately. He stood up and paid his respects to Bai Guiyi.
As the powerful prime minister, Bai Gui holds the power that can easily dethrone him from the throne.
Moreover, Bai Gui's prestige at this time was unparalleled, and no one in the country could match it. As a young emperor who had not yet taken charge of the throne, he had been severely trained by Bai Gui since he was a child. How could he dare to treat Bai Gui so lightly?
"Mao'er, please step back. The Ai family and your Yafu have something to discuss."
When Concubine Wu Hui saw Bai Gui, her beautiful eyes brightened slightly, and she waved her hand, indicating that Li Hao should leave first.
"Then...I won't disturb you two, my father and my mother."
Li Hao lowered his head slightly, bowed and saluted again, and slowly exited the palace with the eunuchs and maids beside him.
After Li Hao left, the sound came from the Xianju Hall again.
"The Supreme Emperor is now obsessed with cultivating Taoism and seeking immortality. He has not touched the Ai family for many years. He doesn't know what the Supreme Emperor means. Is it possible that he will continue to be pure and stoic?"
Concubine Wu Hui said resentfully.
"Your Majesty has great plans in mind. Now that immortality can be expected, your temporary female lust... Your Majesty will control yourself. The Queen Mother does not need to worry about it."
Bai Gui replied.
Li Longji ascended to the throne of God not because he was a prince, but because of his powerful methods. For this kind of person, although he will enjoy material desires, if he has higher pursuits, temporary patience is not a big deal.
In the same way, when he was studying for the imperial examination in Zishui County, he had the Kunlun Mirror in his hand, but he was still willing to eat bran-thick vegetables because it was not difficult for him to delay enjoyment.
Concubine Wu Hui: "..."
The meaning of her words was not to discuss Li Longji.
"Prime Minister Bai... I wonder if you have any confidential matters to discuss with the Ai family this time?"
She saw the serious look on Bai Gui's face, so she asked.
"The prime minister wants to step down from the position of prime minister, and the person he likes is Zhang Jiuling from the Political Affairs Hall. He and the prime minister have a long history, and he is a loyal minister, so he can take over the position..."
Bai Gui pondered for a while and said.
"Zhang Jiuling?"
Concubine Wu Hui was surprised. She knew that Zhang Jiuling had some conflicts with Bai Gui because Bai Gui became the powerful prime minister and carried out the abolition and establishment of officials.
Now Bai Gui recommends Zhang Jiuling, which is really surprising.
Don’t you avoid relatives and enemies when promoting virtuous people?!
"etc……"
"Xiang Bai, are you going to step down as prime minister? How old are you now? It is the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period. If you step down and leave us orphans and widows, how can you manage the affairs of the government? You will definitely be criticized by others.
bully……"
Concubine Wu Hui suddenly realized this.
Once an outsider takes over the position of prime minister, her and the little emperor's situation will be in danger.
"Queen Mother, the Emperor has not passed away yet!"
A strange look flashed across Bai Gui's face and he corrected him.
What kind of orphans and widowers, Li Longji is obviously still alive.
