"You said those little eunuchs, I am going to train them well and then find an opportunity to send them to the capital palace."
"Ah?" Qinghongzao was stunned for a moment, then realized, "Master, are you planning to go to Beijing?"
"I will definitely go to Beijing in the future. Now I have the opportunity to play some chess pieces." Wang Xuan nodded. No matter how well it develops in Fujian, the capital of the Ming Dynasty is the real political center. If you want to control the Ming Dynasty according to Wang Xuan
To develop Xuan's idea, it would be a matter of time before he entered Beijing, so it would be appropriate to start moving there as early as possible.
"Let's do this." Wang Xuan looked at Qinghongzaobai up and down, and an idea came to his mind, "These dozen little eunuchs should be left to you to manage. You will be responsible for teaching them reading, literacy and various knowledge. In addition, you will also teach them
They must practice evil-proofing swordsmanship within two years, and then they must become talents, and then I will send them to the capital through other channels."
"In the past two years, you try your best to find the whereabouts of their families and let Yehuo cooperate with you. Of course, the loyal education cannot be left behind, no problem."
Qinghongzaobai lightly brushed her hair and tucked it behind her ears, straightened her chest and said, "Of course there's no problem. Don't worry, leave it to my master. I'm sure the training will be good enough."
"That's it, you can take him away later." Wang Xuan felt relieved to leave it to Qing Hong Zao Bai. After all, Qing Hong Zao Bai was also a scholar himself. He didn't need these little eunuchs to have such high knowledge. Teaching them more was just to give them a step up.
, allowing them to get ahead faster.
As for those maids who came back, some of them had been trained. Wang Xuan sent them to Baihuamen to train them well. They could come out to prosper the Ming Dynasty's cultural and entertainment market in the future... After all, they were all the women of the Tang Dynasty.
With this name, I think I can sell it at a good price in the future.
As for the other parts that were relatively intact, Wang Xuan planned to reward some capable generals in the army. After all, they all came from the royal palace. Their conditions were indeed much better than many women in the private sector, and they were better at serving others.
This can be regarded as some of Wang Xuan's methods to bribe people in the army.
After making a decision, these trivial matters will be left to the subordinates.
Recently, Zhao Zhengyang and Yue Buqun have been following Wang Xuan. Wang Xuan wants to train them well.
Including Yue Buqun, he has some abilities, but his vision was too narrow when he was in the world before, and his habit of dealing with problems is too strong, which is not conducive to future development.
In Wang Xuan's heart, Yue Buqun's Quanzhen lineage Taoism played a great role.
In the same situation, Liu Zhengfeng, a serious Ming Dynasty official, joined the army because Wang Xuan had made arrangements for Liu Zhengfeng this time.
The next day, Wang Xuan and Yue Buqun came to the governor's office. When they saw Wang Xuan arriving, the guard guarding the gate let Wang Xuan in while letting people in to report to the governor. At least in Fuzhou Prefecture, there was no place that Wang Xuan could not enter.
.
Including most of the lower-level people in the governor's yamen, they all want to eat from Wang Xuan.
All the way to the study, Governor Li and Wang Xuan sat opposite each other again. As for Yue Buqun, they were waiting outside the room. Wang Xuan did not introduce him, and Governor Li did not ask. However, with the magical power of Zixia, the conversation between the two people in the room could not be hidden.
Yue Buqun is outside the door.
"The governor must be very busy these days." Wang Xuan picked up the tea bowl and said with a smile.
"It's not a bad thing. Finally, it's not enough. The rebellion of King Tang has been reported. By the way, Yan Xuezhen's appointments have also been sent to the capital." Ever since I saw King Tang being killed with my own eyes.
, the relationship between the two has taken a further step, and it can be regarded as a friendship that has carried the 'gun' together.
"Excuse me, sir. On the other hand, there is an issue regarding the appointment of the border guard commander and his subordinates in Quanzhou. I need your help."
"Have you decided on the candidate?" He knew very well what Wang Xuan was thinking, so he asked directly.
Wang Xuan directly took out a roster list and handed it over. Li Shantang took it and looked at it briefly before putting it away. Although he was a third-grade official, it was nothing as long as he was a military attache. It didn't take much effort to arrange it.
Just spend some money.
After all, they are just some vulgar warriors and are not harmful at all.
"After some time, when the imperial court receives this memorial, I believe there will be many rewards for you, sir. You should make plans in advance."
Li Shantang pondered for a moment and then sighed, "It's hard to say this!"
"I am from Shaanxi, and I must have known that most of the officials in the DPRK and the Central Government are now located in the south of the Yangtze River. In addition, part of Qilu and Beizhili will also be divided up. There are very few remaining official positions. There are only so many official positions in the DPRK.
"More, even if I have made great achievements this time, it is not easy to be promoted!"
"Not to mention anything else, there is no vacancy in the position. Even if there is a vacancy, it may not be my turn. Several major political parties are keeping an eye on me."
Speaking of this, Li Shantang was also a little discouraged. Not only was Shaanxi poor, but there were fewer people who could pass the Jinshi examination every year, so that it was really embarrassing to be in the middle of the court, and it had always been dependent on other forces.
"Let's see. I'll ask Jin Yiwei to help collect some information. If it's too strict, it won't be collected. Generally, it can be collected completely. In addition, sir, let's take a look at which position is more promising to win."
"So what if there is hope? That position is a carrot and a pitfall."
"Then pull out the carrot!" Wang Xuan snorted coldly. If there is a vacancy, you must take it. If there is no vacancy, you must take the vacancy!
Li Shantang's eyes widened and he looked at Wang Xuan in surprise. He was really surprised that the other party could say such a thing. You know, everyone is a scholar. No matter what their usual methods, they would not involve assassination.
As for the bottom line, even if it is targeted at someone, it is nothing more than reading a few books to make the other party a soldier. This kind of assassination is not allowed. After all, once the bottom line is breached, the consequences will be
chain reaction.

Li Shantang couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth when he thought that Wang Xuan dared to arrange it for even the King of Tang Dynasty. This seemed to him simply too crazy. He was a descendant of the royal family. Although he also participated in the end, in the final analysis, it was because
Wang Xuan's arrangements were clearer, and he couldn't stand the temptation of such great achievements, but he didn't dare to do it by himself, even if he was beaten to death.
"You don't dare to do this in the capital. Once discovered, they will be attacked by a group of people." Li Shantang quickly persuaded Wang Xuan to give up the dangerous idea.
"Hahaha..." Wang Xuan waved his hands and smiled. He was just paving the way for Li Shantang. He was not so crazy and he was not crazy.
"I'm afraid you may have misunderstood me. Of course I know about this kind of thing. We don't necessarily need to do things like pulling carrots ourselves. We value that position. I'm responsible for finding someone to collect various evidence of his crimes. Whether it's a copy of ginseng or a book of ginseng,
Either he can create public opinion in the capital, or he can do something in his hometown, this method will get a lot of results."
"Even if we can't open the gap from him, we can still find it from his family members, sons and servants. I still don't believe it. There are really a few clean men in this court."
After hearing what Wang Xuan said, Li Shantang finally calmed down. He was really afraid that Wang Xuan would not be able to stop himself and act recklessly.
After heaving a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but have hope. Wang Xuan's series of statements are very feasible. If he really gets a few dogs to bite him, he really has hope of entering the court. If he can
Being a minister can be regarded as worthy of having struggled in the official career for so many years.
He actually desires power more than money.
"This matter cannot be rushed. We can only do it slowly. If you have the opportunity, you must take action in time. If you need any support, please contact me. Not only Shaanxi, Fujian is also your second hometown.
With the support of Fujian, which is getting richer and richer, I believe you will be able to reach the top again."
Li Shantang's eyes lit up. Wang Xuan's words couldn't be more obvious. He would support him and contact other aristocratic families in Fujian to support him. The most important thing is that he knew what Fujian was like in the past. Those big families had limited power.
But he also knows how fast it has developed in the past two years.
For these newly rising families, they do not have wide connections in the court and they really need support from higher levels.
Looking at Fujian's current momentum, under the leadership of Wang Xuan, it will climb several more steps in the future. With this kind of backing, he may not be able to put his punches to good use.
Li Shantang laughed and said, "Thank you very much for your support. I will live up to my father and mother in Fujian in the future."
The two chatted for a while, and Wang Xuan changed the topic, "I think there are still some things that need to be investigated in depth on the matter of King Tang?"
Li Shantang was stunned and didn't understand what Wang Xuan meant. Isn't this matter with King Tang in the past?
"You might as well tell me what you mean by it."
"The king of the Tang Dynasty was bewitched by demonic monks, which led to this catastrophe. I think this unhealthy trend needs to be controlled!" Wang Xuan's eyes shot out a cold light. Wasn't it just a branch of the lay people who dared to scheme against him?
Really ignorant.
"This..." Li Shantang frowned and remained silent for a while before continuing: "What do you think about Buddhism?"
"Although the imperial court is wary of Buddhism, it currently has no intention of suppressing Buddhism. After all, Buddhist ideas can still calm people's minds to a certain extent. Even in Fujian, the power of Buddhism is still there.
It should not be underestimated, even though they usually keep a low profile. Once their power breaks out, although they are not as powerful as the Confucian sect, their energy is still considerable. You must know that these monks can be very united."
Li Shantang's voice suddenly dropped, "If you don't get it right, it will be a disaster."
He was also convinced by Wang Xuan, so he couldn't stop for a moment. He was either doing this or that. If it was the other party who came to find out what happened to Prince Tang before, then that would be fine. But why are you causing trouble to the Buddhists for no reason!
Are those bald thieves so easy to bully as King Tang?
If you don't get it right, it will be a lose-lose outcome for both parties!
Wang Xuan sneered, "Of course, I have never underestimated the power of those thieves. In Fujian alone, there are more than 140 temples. There are thousands of acres of fertile land under that temple. In total, there are hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land alone."
There are more than 50,000 believer tenants in the area, not counting some of the wealthy households with whom they associate."
"If they incite the people, they can easily cause a large-scale unrest. This is why the imperial court and local governments are unwilling to provoke them."
"This is still in Fujian, a place where nine out of ten mountains and rivers are divided into fields. If it expands to the whole country, hehe, it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that they will be the richest group of people."
Wang Xuan had done a lot of research on this gang of thieves. After all, in history, these thieves did not cause trouble once or twice. If there were ten rebellions, these thieves would participate in at least five times... What happened to Wang Xuan?
Dare to look down on them, after all, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will be victorious in any battle!
"Since you know, you still want to deal with them." Li Shantang looked at Wang Xuan as if he was a madman. He didn't realize that this kid was so crazy before. Could it be that he didn't reveal his true nature before?
"How can we deal with things that are reasonable and legal? When have I, Wang Xuan, done anything illegal? I have always been dedicated to serving the people and serving the country! Let's not talk about anything else, just talking about business taxes and land taxes, I
Mr. Wang is short of a penny."
Seeing how confident Wang Xuan was, Governor Li, who was in his fifties, couldn't help but rolled his eyes. Wang Xuan, you don't do anything illegal, this is the funniest joke this year... But when it comes to taxes,
On the one hand, indeed, he didn't know what Wang Xuan was thinking. That big businessman across the country didn't evade taxes?
"Besides, I'm not going to carry out any big and thunderous action. It's just boiling a frog in warm water!" Wang Xuan chuckled, an evil spirit rising on his face, "By the time they find out, it will be too late."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Yue Buqun, come in." He shouted outside the house, and when people came in, Wang Xuan introduced him: "Let me introduce you to your lord."
, this is Yue Buqun, a fellow countryman of Governor Li."
"I'm Yue Buqun, I've met Governor Li." After entering the door, Yue Buqun shook his fly whisk and made a Taoist salute to Li Shantang. He had a bookish air about him, and now he changed into a Taoist robe, which made him look more like a Taoist.
There is something of a fairy spirit.
Governor Li looked Yue Buqun up and down, and said that it was not a big problem to say that he had an immortal spirit. If nothing else, at least his appearance was not a problem. Moreover, based on his experience, when he saw Yue Buqun, he would treat Wang Xuan
I almost guessed what it meant, which was to promote Taoism to compete with Buddhism.
This kind of thing is also done by the imperial court. This is why Wudang Mountain has been sealed many times over the years.
Moreover, this person is still his fellow countryman. In his opinion, Wang Xuan found him specially to take care of his emotions. "Where is this Taoist priest? What is his Taoist name?"
"I don't dare. Pindao is a direct descendant of the Quanzhen lineage. The founder of this sect is Guang Ningzi, one of the seven Quanzhen disciples. He was originally a monk on Mount Hua."
Guangningzi is the Taoist name of Hao Datong. Li Shantang knows this, and he is also familiar with Huashan. It is indeed a direct descendant of Quanzhen.
"Yue Buqun is the previous leader of the Huashan sect. I specially persuaded him from Huashan to reopen the Quanzhen lineage in Fujian. This requires some support from your lord. As for the Taoist name, it is called Wuchenzi.
Bar!"
Wait... Li Shantang and Yue Buqun were both stunned. Their eyes were filled with astonishment when they looked at Wang Xuan. Just call him Wuchenzi, okay?
Is this really made up?
Is it sloppy?
"Why are you looking at me like that? Isn't this Wuchenzi bad?" Wang Xuan glanced at the two of them and spread his hands helplessly, "I forgot to think about the road number before. Isn't this a temporary support scene?
Besides, his name is Yue Buqun, which means outstanding, and I am Wuchen, which means not messing with the mortal world. Isn’t this a good match?"
"Of course, if you feel it's not good, you can change it to another one!"
Hahaha, Li Shantang suddenly laughed, "They all say that Zai is talented, and today I saw that he is indeed well-deserved. This is a good title."
Yue Buqun also had his head called again. This was Wang Xuan's request. A Taoist priest should look like a Taoist priest. "Thank you sir for the title!"
Wang Xuan resisted laughing. Don't worry, I, Wang Xuan, will never be proud!
Li Shantang nodded slightly. At least Yue Buqun's identity was absolutely no problem and he could definitely handle it.
"How does Zai Zhi want me to support him?"
"Not much, just official recognition and publicity. As for the rest, I will naturally take care of it."
"For Buddhism, normally, to be a monk, you need to have a certificate and register with the Daolu Department. But in fact, these thieves now dare to call themselves monks after shaving their heads. This is
It is tantamount to treating the laws of the Ming Dynasty as nothing."
"Moreover, some important criminals wanted by the court have escaped punishment by becoming a monk. Why put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately? If everyone is like this, what is the use of our Ming Dynasty's national laws? This kind of trend must not increase!"
"We can use this as an excuse to carry out strict investigations and crackdowns,"
"This incident involving King Tang was caused by them behind the scenes. Even if they retaliate, they don't dare to fart. They just take the opportunity to push Taoism up, and then slowly digest them."
"It's not difficult." Li Shantang nodded, "Let me know when the Taoist temple is built."
"Okay, I'll leave it to you, sir. It's getting late today, so I'll go back."
The two exchanged a few more polite words, and Wang Xuan left the governor's office, got in the car and went home directly.
On the way, Wang Xuan looked at Yue Buqun and said, "Recently, you have put down other things and concentrated on studying Taoist classics. In fact, I have always felt that your Huashan sect has taken the wrong path fundamentally."
"Please give me some advice, my lord." Yue Buqun was very humble and did not have any dissatisfaction with Wang Xuan for saying that Huashan Mountain was not good.
"You are too focused on martial arts. Whether it is swordsmanship or airbending, although Qi training is a must for Taoism, it is not enough as a foundation."
"Why is this?" Yue Buqun really didn't understand this.
"Both Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have their own core ideas, which are also the foundation of the three religions. However, you who are branches of Taoism have forgotten the importance of ideas and started martial arts. This in itself is putting the cart before the horse."
"Look at the Shaomu Temple lineage. They have Arhat Hall, Prajna Hall, Bodhi Hall, Discipline Hall, Zhengdao Hall, Confession Hall, Medicine King Hall, Relic Hall, Sutra Pavilion, and Bodhidharma Hall. Each has a different division of labor. There are
There are those who specialize in practicing advanced exercises, there are those who teach disciples, there are those who take care of secular affairs, there are those who supervise punishments, there are those who study Buddhist classics, and there are those who compile various classics."
"But you will find that the abbot of Shaomusi Temple basically does not come from Bodhidharma Academy. In other words, whether the kung fu is good or not has nothing to do with whether he is the master or not. It is just a way to protect the inheritance of Shaomusi Temple. In this way, both
It allows the people of Bodhidharma Academy to concentrate on martial arts without being distracted, and it also prevents Shaomusi Temple from going astray as a separate martial arts sect."
"Take you as an example. If you were just allowed to practice, you wouldn't be as skilled as you are now. Take Linghu Chong and Feng Qingyang as examples. It's more appropriate to just be a protector instead of managing a sect."
