Jing Zhimo followed Zhang Yangming and said: "I understand, the prison. First, confine the matter to Zhao Zhiran; second, obtain several measures to restrict the monks."
Zhang Yangming nodded: "This is why I deleted most of the original text you drafted. Those words are too hurtful and will not have a good effect if they are taken out."
Jing Zhimo lowered his head and said: "The jail is working hard, all for the sake of my Shifang Jungle comrades, Zhimo understands."
When we arrived at the Zichen Hall, we climbed up the stairs and entered the main hall. Jing Zhimo immediately kowtowed to the ground and said, "Jing Zhimo, the master of the left hall of the Dianzhuoyuan in Jianji on the small path, has met all the true masters!"
Zhang Yunyi said: "Get up, I sent you in because I want to ask you, is this edict originally based on your suggestion?"
Jing Zhimo stood up and stood with his hands lowered: "Returning to the Great Heavenly Master is indeed Xiaodao's suggestion."
"Why was this edict drafted? As far as we know, the only person currently holding a Taoist position in Shifang Jungle is Zhao Zhiran, the abbot of Guyang County, right? Is it because of him?"
Jing Zhimo said: "Yes and no. This edict was initiated by Zhao Zhiran, but the ultimate intention is to clarify the responsibilities between monks and lay people to avoid confusion."
"Then let's talk about it."
"Yes. In the 12th year of Jiajing's reign, Zhao Zhiran entered Wujiyuan of Guyang County and became a layman of Huo Gong. In the 20th year of Jiajing, he took the position of abbot of Wujiyuan. In eight years, he went from being a layman of Huogong to the abbot of the county college. The speed of promotion was:
It’s simply unbelievable. Xiaodao is in Sichuan Province and has been Zhao Zhiran’s boss for several years, so he is more concerned about his affairs. In Xiaodao’s view, Zhao Zhiran’s problems mainly lie in three aspects.”
"First of all, this person was rescued from the Sichuan River by Master Chu Yangcheng of Jade Emperor Pavilion. Master Chu brought him into Wujiyuan and settled him as a layman of fire engineering. But he used Master Chu's name as his
In the name of Wujiyuan, he caused trouble in the Wujiyuan. In just eight months, he was punished by Huo Gongji. After becoming a Taoist boy, he became the Jingzhu of the Sutra Hall in just one year. At that time, there was a vacancy in the Wujiyuan Supervisory Hall, so Zhao Zhiran took the title of Chu Da
In the name of the master, he drew up a list without authorization and arranged for patrols. Song Zhiyuan was the prison guard. Jiang, a high-level practitioner, Chen, a sutra master, Liu, a Jing master, Mo, a Taoist boy, Ma and Fang, all had promotions. This is
One."
After Jing Zhimo finished speaking, many real masters felt very funny. Yang Zhenren immediately asked: "Under the guise of the Great Master of Chu? Is it true or false?"
Jing Zhimo said: "This is absolutely true! Later, Master Chu sent his disciple Tong Baimei to Wuji Academy to personally blame Zhao Zhiran, and ordered Zhao Zhiran to confess to his colleagues in the courtyard, and took him to Baima Mountain to make atonement for his crimes.
.”
Yang Zhenren was extremely curious and urged: "Go on, what about the second and third ones?"
Jing Zhimo said: "Secondly, in the 19th year of Jiajing's reign, there was a major meeting in Ye Xueguan of Sichuan Province. Zhao Zhiran was already a Taoist monk at this time. Because of his special status, he held the position of a temple consecrator, but he had relationships with many abbots of palaces.
The Supervisory Academy, and even the eight deacons of Xuanyuan Guan, and the eight first-class deacons of Xuanyuan Guan joined forces to stir up trouble and trouble. At that time, Songfan Tianhe Palace Supervisor Yuan was recommended, and Zhao Zhiran tried his best to confuse the candidates agreed upon by Zong Guan and Xuanyuan Guan.
Overturned, the candidate he favored was successfully promoted."
"Thirdly, Du Tenghui, the Supervisor of Tianhe Palace whom he recommended at that time, reported Ye Yunxuan to Xuanyuan Guandu for illegal activities. Later, the General Guan convened relevant personnel to talk and investigate, and because Zhao Zhiran was involved, he was also recruited to Lushan
.This investigation ultimately came to nothing. Although we have no evidence of the reason, everyone knows that it must be related to Zhao Zhiran."
Yang Zhenren covered his mouth and chuckled: "This person is quite interesting. He is indeed very qualified."
Guo Hongjing shook his head and said: "Mr. Yang, it's interesting, and his qualifications are probably good, but with such qualifications, acting like this may not be the right way. From this, it seems that what the Lord Jing said has some truth."
Chen Shandao also spoke: "Indeed, if practitioners do evil in the jungles of the ten directions, it will be really harmful."
Wu Yangzhong sneered and said: "Zhenren Guo and Tianshi Chen were convicted so quickly? Why? Just based on the one-sided words of Jing Jingmo? The so-called partial belief is nothing more than that."
Guo Hongjing frowned and said, "What do Wu Tianshi mean by these words? Is it possible that Jing Zhimo still dares to lie in the True Master Hall? Or maybe, what Wu Tianshi means, Zhang Jianyuan is also lying?"
Xu Yun'ao came on stage and said: "Belief or bias is not lying. The two cannot be confused. Whichever side you stand on, you will see things and think about different issues than others, and your stance will naturally be different."
Wu Yang Zhongdao: "Yes, the butt determines the head. When I first heard this in the past two days, I thought it was very funny. I don't think I have witnessed it today."
A few people immediately started arguing in the palace. Zhang Yunyi stopped everyone and said: "In this case, is there anyone else who will come forward to testify?"
Xu Yun'ao said: "The day before yesterday, the disciple I entrusted to him came to the capital to see me. His disciple is none other than Zhao Zhiran. How about I send a flying talisman to summon Zhao Zhiran and listen to his explanation, okay?
"
Zhao Ran quickly arrived at the Zichen Hall. At this moment, including Zhang Laodao, there were three top monks in the Hedao Realm, nine great monks in the Void Refining Realm, and two people who were secular Taoists.
It is the high road that I can only hope to reach - the abbot and prison of Jian Ji Guan.
Therefore, with Zhao Ran's thick skin and open heart, he was still shocked in the Zichen Palace. After announcing his name, he stood aside and waited for inquiries honestly.
Xu Yun'ao called Zhao Ran over. To show fairness, he did not ask questions, but asked other true masters to ask.
Yang Zhenren was the first to speak, and the question she asked was: "Zhao Zhiran, how long have you been in the Huangguan Realm?"
Zhao Ran was stunned and replied: "Xiao Dao bought Huang Guan in February last year, and it has been more than a year."
Yang Zhenren continued to ask: "How is the elixir pregnancy? How long will it take to reach perfection?"
Zhao Ran thought about it in his mind and said, "In another two or three years, we will be able to achieve perfection."
Yang Zhenren nodded and said with a smile: "Come here and let me take a look."
Zhao Ran's head was filled with questions and he couldn't figure out what the hell this great monk was doing. But Master Yang was the only Kun Dao among the people and had a very kind face. Zhao Ran estimated that the Master of the Qi Fu Pavilion was at least a hundred
Although he is over 50 years old, he looks like he is only in his fifties or sixties, and he still cannot hide his splendor. It is normal for people to judge people by their appearance, and Zhao Ran is no exception. He moved to Master Yang's side without realizing it and let him inspect him.
Yang Zhenren stretched out his fingers to check and said with satisfaction: "Sure enough, you have good qualifications and good bones. The foundation of this sea of qi is also very solid. I just don't know how it will be when you realize the breakthrough."
Zhao Ran didn't know how to answer, but Xu Yun'ao next to him smiled: "It took this kid three days to break from the Taoist realm to the Taoist realm, and one hour to break from the Taoist realm to the Huangguan realm."
Yang Zhenren narrowed his eyes and said happily: "Sure enough, good material!"
Zhao Ran was startled, and his heart was beating wildly. He didn't know what the great monk meant when he said he was "good material".
