In Elder Tang's study, Wang Xianzheng was talking eloquently and brainwashing Elder Tang: "As the saying goes, if the name is not correct, the words will not go smoothly, and if the words are not right, things will not be accomplished. If you want to change the system, the first thing that must be changed is the relationship between the elder and the Buddha Mother.
!”
Speaking of which, Wang Xian has been in Qingzhou for almost a month, but he has never seen the legendary Buddha Mother! It is said that the nominal supreme leader of the White Lotus Sect is still searching for himself everywhere. If the Buddha Mother knows, he has already
After arriving in Qingzhou, I became the military advisor of the White Lotus Sect. How would I feel?
"The relationship between me and the Buddha's mother..." Wang Xian's words touched Elder Tang's itch again. He sighed for a while, and Elder Tang let out a long sigh and said: "You are trapped in a cocoon, what can you do?"
Elder Tang was able to successfully take over the helm after Lin San and then suppress the believers across the province because he had raised the banner of the Buddha Mother!
It should be said that Elder Tang was very clever in his skills. Through his successive deifications of the Buddha's Mother, especially the burning of the three main halls on the Lantern Festival, he successfully made the Buddha's Mother have countless fans in the religion, even those who were dissatisfied with the Buddha's Mother.
The senior officials who knew the situation well did not dare to offend the public and expose Elder Tang's tricks. Over time, the Buddha Mother has become the symbol of the White Lotus Sect. In the hearts of the majority of believers, the White Lotus Sect is the Buddha Mother, and the Buddha Mother is the White Lotus Sect!
But as the saying goes, every advantage must have its disadvantages. Elder Tang successfully seized the supreme power through the Buddha Mother, but in name he was always in charge of the affairs of the church on behalf of the Buddha Mother, and he was never able to become the legitimate leader of the White Lotus Sect! Just like
As Wang Xian said, if one's reputation is not justified, one's words will not follow suit. Without one's reputation, one's hands will be tied up. This also became an excuse for Dong Yangao and others not to obey orders.
Therefore, Elder Tang dreamed of changing the situation of this unjust and unruly person, but his power came from the Buddha Mother, and getting rid of the Buddha Mother was equivalent to getting rid of himself! That's why Elder Tang sighed that he was "self-inflicted".
"Actually, it's not difficult at all," Wang Xian said with a faint smile: "As long as the elders change their names, they can distinguish the authority with the Buddha Mother. The task of educating believers and educating all living beings belongs to the Buddha Mother, and the task of educating the common people in the army belongs to the elders!
From now on, each will go his own way, and the two will not interfere, but will take care of each other, and live in harmony. Wouldn't it be a thousand times better than the current situation?"
"Oh? What name should I change it to?" Elder Tang asked with wide eyes.
"His Holiness!" Wang Xian said softly.
"Dharma King?" Elder Tang was fascinated when he heard this.
"The Buddha's Mother is the deity in the religion, and the Dharma King is the king of the country. Although the Buddha's Mother is regarded as a god, the consent of the Buddha's mother is not required for life and death." Wang Xian smiled lightly and said: "To put it bluntly, it is the relationship between heaven and the emperor. The emperor
Respect Heaven, but have you ever heard that Heaven can control the Emperor?"
"Uh..." After Wang Xian finished speaking, Elder Tang didn't say anything for a full stick of incense, but his eyes were full of color. After holding it in for a long time, he finally clapped his hands and praised: "Good! Great good!" After saying this, he was excited.
He took Wang Xian's hand, shook it vigorously and said, "Sir, why didn't I meet you earlier!"
"It's not too late now," Wang Xian smiled and allowed Elder Tang to vent his excitement. "It's time for His Holiness to show off his grand plans!"
"Haha, yes!" Elder Tang was so excited by Wang Xian's words that he rubbed his hands and asked excitedly: "Sir, what do you think should be done? Do you want to ask Mother Buddha to come back and authorize me?"
"Hey..." Wang Xian shook his head and said: "In that case, others will still regard the Buddha Mother as the superior and the Dharma King as the inferior. What we want is for the two kings to stand side by side, not to be inferior to others!"
"Then what should we do?" Elder Tang didn't know what to do now.
"This does not require students to teach the Dharma King," Wang Xian said with a smile, "but the Dharma King needs to teach the students! You are the expert!"
"This..." Elder Tang thought for a long time, and suddenly he clapped his hands and his eyes lit up! He is indeed an expert, because he was the one who created the Buddha Mother! "I understand, this Dharma King is given by heaven. First of all,
There will be some auspicious signs to show that the Dharma King is coming to this world, and then the Buddha will entrust him with a dream, and then all the brothers will support him, and then great things will be accomplished!"
"His Holiness is indeed an expert!" Wang Xian smiled and nodded.
"Oh, this is really a word that wakes up the dreamer. You said such a simple method, why can't I think of it?" Elder Tang rubbed his hands vigorously and sighed repeatedly.
"The elder is a fan of the authorities. I'm just a bystander." Wang Xian replied with a smile.
"Yes, yes!" Elder Tang nodded repeatedly: "Then let's work separately. I will run this Dharma King, and you will be responsible for the rest!"
"As commanded!" .
In the following days, Wang Xian began to make intensive preparations. He was busy until midnight every day before going back to his room to rest. At dawn the next day, he appeared in front of everyone in high spirits and took care of the affairs of the church in an orderly manner.
Moreover, he made clear rewards and punishments, and acted fairly, which won everyone's praise, and Bin Hong was soon completely forgotten...
Bin Hong, on the other hand, was depressed. He spent the whole day drinking to drown his sorrows with a few old brothers who were also frustrated. Every time he got drunk, he would scold Wang Xian for harboring evil intentions and would definitely destroy the sect! Naturally, he also expressed his displeasure.
Elder Tang also made grievances from time to time, saying that he was close to villains, ruthless and unjust, and would definitely regret it in the future...
Naturally, the loser's complaints will not have much impact on those in power. Just when everyone thought that the two of them were just on the same page and would not have any intersection, something suddenly happened!
At three o'clock that day, Wang Xian finished handling military affairs and was walking in the courtyard, preparing to go back to his room to rest. Dai Hua led the way with a lantern in front of him. When he passed through a section of the corridor, Dai Hua suddenly became alert, drew out his weapon and shouted fiercely
A cry: "Who?!"
Before they finished speaking, the two of them quickly rolled on the spot and left the center of the road! The lantern in Dai Hua's hand was also extinguished!
Almost at the same time, more than a dozen feather arrows shot to the ground with the sound of breaking wind, making a popping sound!
Immediately afterwards, several torches were thrown down, and a dozen men in black jumped down from the courtyard wall, using the firelight to slash at the two people who had managed to avoid the hidden arrows with their swords!
Dai Hua suddenly jumped up from the ground, raised his sword and fought with the assassin! Wang Xian also drew his sword and watched the enemies in all directions vigilantly!
Those men in black were very skilled in martial arts, but Dai Hua was unable to defeat him, and the one who was killed kept retreating! Wang Xian also had to join the battle group, desperately resisting the enemy's attack!
But the enemy was too powerful. After a while, the two could not resist. The long sword in Wang Xian's hand was knocked away, and Dai Hua was hit by the sword in the arm. He was about to die under the enemy's sword! Wang Xian asked loudly and unwillingly:
"Who are you and why do you want to take my life!"
"Humph!" The leader of a man in black said with a strange laugh: "Let you be clear and tell you that if you offend our military advisor, you will only die!" After speaking, he waved his hand and shouted: "
kill him!"
"Who dares?!" Suddenly there was a loud shout like a thunderbolt from the blue, and a burly man descended from the sky, holding a hammer high and charging into the battle group! Who else could he be if he wasn't Liu Xin?!
Behind Liu Xin, there were more than a dozen soldiers with high martial arts skills, who were the same soldiers who patrolled the night with him. As soon as these people joined the battle group, the situation of the battle immediately reversed. The assassin who was showing off his power just now was suddenly unable to resist!
At this time, the entire courtyard was alarmed, and more and more guards came over. The leading assassin barely resisted for a few rounds, and then shouted in a low voice: "The wind is tight! Pull!"
After this sound, the dozen assassins fought and retreated, turned a corner, and ran away, disappearing without a trace before being surrounded!
Liu Xin led people to chase for a while, but failed to catch up with the assassin. Worried about Wang Xian's safety, he turned back to the corridor and saw that it was surrounded by hundreds of guards! Liu Xin separated from the others, went inside, and saw Tang Xian.
The elder was wearing a brocade robe and stood in the firelight with an ashen complexion.
"What's wrong?" Liu Xin asked in a low voice. Ding Gugang pointed to the two assassin corpses lying on the ground. At this moment, the two assassins had taken off their masks, and their faces could be seen clearly by the firelight. Liu Xin couldn't help but
He screamed strangely: "Isn't this Bin Hong's personal soldier?! It was indeed that bastard who did it!"
"Why did you say, sure enough?" Elder Tang asked with trembling hands and suppressing his anger. Although Elder Tang is the leader of a religion, Bin Hong has been with him for more than 20 years after all, and Elder Tang, his personal soldier, is not
Not unfamiliar. But Elder Tang still couldn't accept that his old brother who started his career would actually do such a thing!
"The military advisor didn't tell you?" Liu Xin looked at Wang Xian, who was sitting aside and dressing his wounds, and seemed to be still in shock.
"The military advisor is a kind man and refuses to say who the enemy is." Elder Tang's tone slowed down slightly and he stared at Liu Xin and said, "Tell me what is going on!"
"Yes." Liu Xin nodded and said to Elder Tang: "I am on duty tonight. I was patrolling the yard with my brothers. Suddenly I heard the sound of fighting here, so I hurried over to check, and found a group of assassins.
Siege the military advisor! At that time, the military advisor was already in danger, so he asked them who they were. They claimed to be Bin Hong's men and wanted to kill the military advisor!" After finishing speaking, Liu Xin scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "I came over in a hurry to save people, so I didn't remember clearly.
, but they are right to admit that they are from Binhong." After that, he looked at Wang Xiandao: "Military advisor, is that what happened?"
"There must be a misunderstanding here." Wang Xian's face was pale, as if he had lost too much blood, and his lips had changed color. But he still refused to correct Bin Hong, shaking his head and saying: "Brother Bin Hong will not be so crazy..."
"You're still speaking for him!" Liu Xin said angrily, "I'll catch him right now and let him admit it!" After saying that, he stormed away angrily. Everyone looked at Elder Tang and saw that Elder Tang didn't stop him.
, then I knew that Elder Tang also meant the same thing...
In that room, Bin Hong and several drinking buddies were drunk. They didn't even know that the sky was falling outside. When Liu Xin led people to the door, they heard Bin Hong yelling in the room:
"Tang Tiande, you ungrateful man! I have worked hard for you as a cow and a horse for twenty years, and you treat me like this?! I really want to kill you!"
"Who are you going to kill?!" Liu Xin kicked open the door and rushed in. For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
