What does it mean to give personal instructions? That is to say, the chef Guo Yunzhen saw Zhao Ran's invitation and gave a clear time for the interview.
High-ranking figures like Guo Yunzhen do not decide on their own arrangements most of the time.
For example, when receiving foreign guests, the Taoist priest Tiko who is responsible for daily affairs around Guo Yunzhen (appointed by the residence, with a rank similar to the five masters and eighteen heads) will sort out the greeting cards and submit them to the chef for reading, and the chef will decide who to see and who not to see.
If you agree to meet, Taoist priest Tico will usually arrange the time for the meeting. If it is a special or important guest, the chef will specify the specific time, that is, "personally order" the time.
This sentence shows that in the eyes of Guo Duchu, Zhao Ran is a special guest even if he is not an important guest. The special guest does not receive him immediately, but puts the meeting time for three days later. This is worth pondering.
Since Guo Yunzhen thinks that he is a special guest, it means that he knows the purpose of his meeting this time. Does this mean that Fu Yunzhen and Pan Yunxiang's joint submission will be announced within three days? At the same time, does this mean that Guo Yunzhen agrees with Shuwen?
, but told myself in this way, "Although I agree with Shu Wen, I don't want to offend you, so I agree to meet you"?
In order to make a better comparison, Zhao Ran decided to go to Dadu Sheng Yuntian and also send a greeting card.
In the same way, he stuffed a piece of silver into the Huo Gong layman who was on duty at the capital lecture hall, handed over the greeting card, and went to see if he could be received early the next morning.
The pyrotechnical layman shook his head helplessly: "I'm sorry, Abbot Zhao. My family said they don't have time to see you recently. Please take it back." As for the silver, the pyrotechnical layman also returned the original money.
After receiving the money, Zhao Ran was a little surprised. He returned the money without completing the task, which showed that the conduct of the Duyuan Academy was still very good, and it also showed that Emperor Sheng Yuntian was very strict.
It's just that Shanda Tuoyuan's integrity has nothing to do with Zhao Ran. His refusal to meet with him made it clear that Tudu Tuoyuan's position on the issue of essays and its attitude towards Zhao Ran was clear.
From this comparison, the overall opinions of the three capitals have been clearly revealed to Zhao Ran: all three capitals agree with Shu Wen, but their personal attitudes towards Zhao Ran are different. Zhao Yunyi is willing to help Zhao Ran open a
At the back door, Guo Yunzhen had a neutral and kind attitude toward Zhao Ran, and Sheng Yuntian had no intention of communicating with Zhao Ran at all.
As for Fu Yunzhen of Fangtang and Pan Yunxiang of Dianzhuyuan, these two were the originators of Shuwen. There was absolutely no need for Zhao Ran to visit them again. If he did, he would be slapped in the face.
What should we do at this moment? Zhao Ran felt aggrieved.
With no other choice, Zhao Ran sighed and could only give Dongfang Li a charm and complain to him.
"Senior Brother Li, Junior Brother, my path of cultivation is going to be cut off by the Shifang Jungle. What do you think we should do?"
"Didn't you say that the Du Tenghui case is over? It didn't involve you, right?"
"Fu Yunzhen of Jianji Guan Fangtang and Pan Yunxiang of Dianzhuyuan wrote an essay called "Guange Monks Do Not Enter the Jungle of Ten Directions". They said that they wanted to establish rules and the General Guan would issue an edict. From now on, Guange monks would not enter the forest again.
You can no longer hold a Taoist position in the Shifang Jungle."
"Is this serious?"
"It's absolutely true. Now we have reached a consensus in the Eight Deacons' Room of the General View. It will be finalized just after the three capital meetings are convened. Junior Brother, I have also inquired clearly. The three capital meetings will be held within three days. It is said that the three capital meetings will be held in the capital.
Both Zhang Tianshi and Shen Zhenren will agree."
"Don't panic, I'll think of a way."
"How can I not panic? This is going to end my practice! I have made countless contributions to the Taoist sect, how can Zong Guan treat me like this?"
"Isn't this still undecided? Junior brother, why should we panic?"
“Overall, the opinions are all unanimous, so it’s almost a conclusion!”
"Who told you that all the general opinions are unanimous? The one who agrees is Shifang Jungle, right? That's the lower point! This matter involves the monks in the palace. Shifang Jungle has no right to issue an edict without authorization. It must be reported to the upper point."
Zhao Ran was startled, and suddenly he felt a lot more comfortable. He patted his forehead and thought to himself that he was really confused. Whenever there is a big event, he should be calm. I have written this many times, but when it is really the turn of a big event, how can I
Forgot?
When Zhao Ran was panicking, Zhao Yunyi, the Grand Imperial Guard in the study room of the Imperial Palace, was carefully reading "The Monks in the Pavilion Do Not Enter the Jungles of Ten Directions".
The essay is not a long essay, it is six pages in total, but only a few hundred words, and is elaborated around the core meaning - the monks in the pavilion will not be allowed to hold Taoist positions in the jungles of the ten directions in the future. The final purpose is only one, after submitting it to the three capitals
, hoping to form an edict and issue it to Taoists all over the world.
The most important part of the text is to list the dangers of monks taking up Taoist positions in Shifang Jungle. There are eight dangers in total:
One is that monks spend a lot of energy involved in secular affairs and are unable to concentrate on cultivation;
Secondly, it is easy for monks to be confused by the worldly world, which is detrimental to enlightenment;
Third, it is easy to isolate the top and bottom of the ten-direction forest, and even the rules of work collapse;
The fourth reason is that due to the special status of monks, no one dares to refute, and it is easy to "follow the law";
The fifth is that monks practice practice all year round and are not good at secular affairs and people's livelihood, so their decisions are easy to deviate;
Sixthly, if a monk holds a Taoist position, there is a risk of embezzling the practice resources for his own use;
Seventh, once a monk does evil for selfish reasons, no one can restrain him;
The eighth is that monks join the Shifang Jungle, and their transfer, promotion and demotion cannot be considered.
There are eight harms in a row, the first two are harms to the monks' own practice, and the last six are harms to the jungles of the ten directions. The list is detailed and convincing.
Zhao Yunyi knew that this essay was drafted by Jing Zhimo, the master of the left hall of Dianzuo Academy, and he was the first to put forward the propositions in the essay.
It is said that this person had a quarrel with Zhao Zhiran back then and had always opposed Zhao Zhiran's appointment in the Shifang Jungle in Sichuan Province. Later, when Ye Xueguan was elected, he was pulled down by Zhao Ran and lost his post as Supervisor of Tianhe Palace, so that
Shameless and no longer hang out in the jungles of Shifang, Sichuan Province.
Anyone who understands the background of this paragraph knows that this is Jing Zhimo's "public revenge for private revenge", but no matter what his intentions are, in the eyes of all the secular people in Shifang Jungle, this essay is definitely a good article, and its propositions are absolutely consistent with
The wishes of all the jungle laymen from all directions!
This is enough, do we still need to consider our intentions?
From the bottom of his heart, Director Zhao also agreed. It would be best if there was not a single monk in Shifang Jungle. Otherwise, how can you ask everyone to do things? But Zhao Zhiran is highly valued by Junior Brother Li of Xuanyuan Temple.
At the same time, he has a good relationship with his own son and can be regarded as someone who is on his side.
Zhao Yunyi does not want the centuries-old rules of the Shifang Jungle to be disrupted, but he does not object to the existence of a special case on his side. If used properly, this special case may have unexpected effects, isn't it?
?
It has been five days since this manuscript was submitted to him. After weighing it for so long, he finally took up the pen and made some slight changes today.
Not a word was added or deleted from the previous text. Zhao Yunyi added the most common sentence at the end: This order will come into effect from the date of issuance.
Warmly celebrate the promotion of Tianming Taoist Master to the leader of the alliance. At the end of the sixth hour today, he successfully overcame the tribulation, became at ease with the law, and suffered no disasters in all the tribulations. He received the heavenly talisman and ascended to the immortal world and ranked among the immortals. This chapter has been updated for fellow Taoists.
