No matter how weak the dynasty is, the ministers standing in the court are all outstanding figures in the world.
Naturally there are people with extraordinary vision here.
The moment Feng Zhou walked into the hall, everyone felt how extraordinary Feng Zhou was.
The divine light is inherent in him, his splendor is self-generated, he comes out of the world elegantly, and he is indifferent to the world. You can tell at a glance that he is an extraordinary Taoist priest.
Feng Zhou has been an emperor, a general, and the richest man. He is very familiar with various roles. You must know that those who stand at the top are the most skilled actors. It is not difficult to change a person's temperament. In addition, Feng Zhou
The art of boating is profound, the cultivation is profound, and the spiritual energy in his body is as profound as a lake, vast and continuous,
A master of Taoism!
This is the first impression that comes to everyone's mind at this moment.
Of course, this does not include Master Shengde.
To him, in the entire Lin'an City, only the Taoist priests of Lingyin Temple could barely compare with him. A mere mortal Taoist priest was nothing more than an ant-like existence.
So what if it floats away from the dust?
So what if you are an accomplished person?
Buddhism is the authentic religion of the three realms, and Taoism is just heresy.
Just pretending to be an accomplished person on a small street is nothing more than pretentiousness and deception.
Thinking of this, Shengde glanced at Feng Zhou and didn't care.
At this time, the emperor Zhang Gou in the main hall asked: "I heard that the Taoist Master can help me share my worries. I wonder if the Taoist Master has any opinions on the capsizing of the ship?"
Fengzhou Jishou saluted and said: "Your Majesty, this is the work of a giant beast from the East China Sea. This giant beast's body is a sea snake. It was created by heaven and earth, harvested the essence of the sun and moon, and grew into a giant python, but its spiritual wisdom has not yet been awakened.
But I don’t know when it entered the East China Sea, and this disaster happened.”
"Oh?" The emperor became interested, and everyone looked shocked.
Just now, the eminent monk Shengde only said four words about the giant beast of the East China Sea, but his words were unclear. But this Feng Zhou not only told the shape of the giant beast of the East China Sea, but also seemed to know its origin. In this way, the superiority and inferiority
Judgment!
"Sure enough, he is a Taoist master and a Taoist master. You said that this sea snake grew into a giant python. Can you figure out its origin?"
Feng Zhou smiled calmly: "Your Majesty, although Taoism has methods of calculation, most of them are chaotic and cannot be easily broken. I know that this sea python is huge and swims in the sea like a dragon, so it can overturn a ship with thousands of materials.
I came here with the intention to capture this giant beast for Your Majesty and offer it to me. This sea python absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. If you eat its meat, you will surely be able to prolong your life and get rid of disasters and diseases."
"Prolong life!" Zhao Gou was overjoyed.
This is something that no emperor can refuse. So he quickly asked, "Taoist Master, do you know why this sea python attacked the thousand-material ship of our Coastal Production Department? Oh? But God punished me in the Song Dynasty for this giant beast?"
"
This is the issue that Zhao Gou is most concerned about besides prolonging his life.
This large ship with thousands of materials is related to his safety in the future. Once the Jin attacks, he can run on the ship as soon as possible.
But now that the ship was attacked and his escape route was cut off, how could he endure it?
This mastermind must be caught and cut to pieces!
As for his words such as "God punishes me for this giant beast, the Song Dynasty", it's just a show of acting skills.
Its real purpose is to hide his hatred for the mastermind behind the scenes.
As expected, the attention in the court was diverted by Zhao Gou. Everyone looked at Feng Zhou. The atmosphere at this time was almost solemn to the extreme!
Under the gaze of everyone, Feng Zhou frowned in surprise and said, "Oh? Why did your Majesty say this? This sea python is only ferocious in nature and has no spirituality. It can only be tamed by people with ulterior motives, so that thousands of materials for our heavenly ship will suffer this disaster.
, it’s not a natural disaster, it’s actually a man-made disaster!”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was in an uproar.
Zhao Gou also took advantage of the situation and asked: "Who is it? Who controlled the sea python to attack our ship?"
Feng Zhou said calmly: "Your Majesty, although I know the secrets of heaven, how can I reveal them all? Besides, I am an outsider. I can kill the sea python and offer it to you, but I have to investigate the case and decide the right and wrong. Your Majesty will do it myself."
There are officials in front of the palace, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Dali Temple who can dispatch them, but the poor Taoist can't do anything."
His words made Zhao Gou and Qin Hui nod their heads.
This is what outsiders should look like.
To kill those sea monsters and beasts, you can just take action with the outside warlocks. But if it involves the world of mortals, let Yusi handle it.
It seems that this Fengzhou has a clear mind and understands where his own boundaries are. How is he like that Master Shengde, a mere monk who has been a monk for a few days but does not take off the southeast and northwest, and even wants to learn from the advice of the censor on the stage?
?who do you think You Are?
It's absolutely ridiculous.
Thinking of this, Zhao Gou and Qin Hui were even more pleased with Feng Zhou.
But these two bastards liked him, but the gentlemen in the court were very dissatisfied with Feng Zhou.
Wang Shu was the first to stand up and said: "Humph! This is simply nonsense! If according to what the Taoist Master and Master Shengde said, this sea python can destroy a ship with thousands of materials. How can it be controlled by someone with such power?"
"Yes, if someone can really control such a giant beast, wouldn't he be invincible? Wouldn't it be better to attack Lin'an directly from Qiantang Chao?"
"Your Majesty, this monster is deceiving the emperor by making random remarks. I believe that he should be punished for the crime of deceiving the emperor, so as to serve as a warning to others!"
The ministers retorted one after another, and some even asked the emperor to kill Fengzhou out of anger. No one believed that this sea python could be tamed by humans.
The crowd was so fierce that even the emperor could not disobey him, so he had to ask: "Master Feng, do you have any evidence that this giant turtle was tamed by someone with intentions?"
Feng Zhou said leisurely: "Whether it has been tamed or not, of course we need a supervisor to investigate the case. Pindao is only responsible for capturing the sea python and presenting it to His Majesty. If Your Majesty wants Pindao to give evidence, but you don't know what to do with Dali Temple?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent.
Although Feng Zhou's words were shameless, they were also reasonable.
He was just an outsider, he only told what he saw and knew, and he also promised to capture and kill the sea monster and offer it to me. It can be said that he had already fulfilled all his duties.
But these ministers asked him to hand over evidence.
People just say that sea monsters "can only be tamed by people with ulterior motives." If your court wants to judge right from wrong, it can send relevant departments to investigate!
Professional people do professional work.
The Feng Zhou in front of him is a Taoist priest from the countryside, not an official of the imperial court.
Zhao Gou sighed, nodded and said: "Master Feng Taoist, I have previously ordered Secretary Zhao Kui to be the imperial envoy. He will command the superiors and subordinates and have full authority to mobilize the Dali Temple and the front department to supervise the case of capsizing the sea ship! I heard Master Shengde praise him.
I said that this python can be captured and killed within ten days. If Taoist Master Feng does not object, I will also give you ten days to assist Zhao Kui in supervising the case. If you kill the sea monster and offer it to me, I will do it on the day of your triumph.
How about canonizing you as our Grand Master of the Song Dynasty?
As soon as Zhao Gou said this, Qin Hui bowed and said, "Congratulations to your majesty for acquiring such a great talent. I would like to congratulate your majesty."
The ministers were silent.
Feng Zhou smiled faintly: "Although you have given me a gift, I dare not say goodbye. But I am a poor man who is happy with his life and does not want to be stained by the world of mortals. He only wants to share your worries with you. Your Majesty, please find another wise man!"
As soon as these words came out, even those who were hostile to Feng Zhou could not help but feel a bit of admiration for him.
High-ranking officials and generous salaries are easily available. How many people can resist such temptation?
But this Taoist Master can do it!
He is not worthy of being a national teacher. He is really a master who regards fame and wealth as rubbish!
Only Shengde looked confused: "That's not right. Why did the national master fall on him in such a blink of an eye?"
