That is the incident of the Yue State Temple being demolished.
When this news spread to Daliang, no one dared to believe it and everyone was shocked. The Yue Temple and their Daliang Sanqing Taoist Temple had the same status. Tearing down the temple was no different from digging out their own roots.
People are discussing this matter.
"Have you heard about the Yue Temple?" A table of guests at the tea stall were talking in low voices, and people at other tables also pricked up their ears to listen curiously.
"I heard about it. I also heard that this matter was an order issued by the Emperor of Yue. There is chaos in Great Yue," the man also said in a low voice.
"You may not know, but I have a relative who lives on the border, just across a river from Dai Viet. The place across the river was originally a remote part of Dai Viet. A lot of people died there when a dragon turned over there. Later, Dai Viet went to war with two other countries, and some people moved to that area."
The man continued, "According to them, the two countries said that they would not attack Dai Viet if they overthrew the temple. The first time, the Dai Viet emperor did not agree, but a year has passed. You also know that the Crown Prince Yin of Zhao State ascended the throne and became the emperor."
"There is no chance for Dai Viet to catch its breath. According to them, Zhao and Xue kingdoms did not make much movement before, just waiting for Crown Prince Yin to succeed to the throne, and then they would take down Dai Viet in one fell swoop."
"Da Yue can't escape this time. Although their witch is quite powerful, she can still fight against the Fate Fairy of Snow Country, but Qu Lingxian of Zhao Country is someone who should not be underestimated." www.jiangnanxs.com Jiangnan Literature Network
He said so much in detail that another person asked, "How do you know so much? Did you squat under the carriage of Dai Viet or under the bed of the Dai Viet emperor?"
"Go away, look at what you are saying. I told you this out of kindness, but you still doubt me. To be honest, I know the source of my knowledge of this matter, and you probably can't even imagine it."
The people around him looked at him curiously, and he said proudly: "This is news that no one else knows. Do you remember what I just said about the village across the river? There is a noble who fled the village now. How can what the other party said be false?"
After hearing this, the people at the other table sighed and said, "Oh my goodness, there is actually such a thing. Dai Viet will not be able to survive this time. Even the princes and nobles are fleeing. It shows that their emperor is not good enough."
Dai Viet will be destroyed sooner or later.
"That's right. Now the two countries are asking him to destroy the temple and dig his own grave. Without the temple and the gods they worship, how can Yue resist the attacks of the two countries? It will be impossible for the emperor not to become the king of a fallen country."
Everyone understands the fate of Dai Viet, and also understands that Zhao Kingdom and Xue Kingdom will join forces to attack Daliang in the future. If it were before, when they only had Taoist Xuan Yangzi in Daliang, they would have panicked a bit, but now, God favors Daliang, and with Taoist Li here, they will definitely be able to hold on.
Therefore, no one showed any worry on their face.
Gao Mingli originally came out with Qian Xi to relax, but he didn't expect to hear about Dai Viet when passing by a tea stall, and heard about the temple being demolished and the situation of Dai Viet.
Gao Mingli thought of the divination his master had given him and made a face at Qian Xi, saying nothing about it.
Qian Xi was also surprised for a while, then his expression became calm, as if he hadn't heard of this matter. Seeing Qian Xi's excited expression, he also said calmly: "Let's go."
Seeing that he didn't respond, Qian Xi said unhappily, "Master's divination has come true again. Why do you look like that?"
"..." Qian Xi paused for a long time. When Gao Mingli didn't even care about his answer, he said slowly, "Is there any ineffective fortune telling by Master?"
This question stumped Gao Mingli. After careful thought, he realized that all the divinations his master had done were really accurate.
For Master, this is as simple as eating.
Gao Mingli was silent, and then stopped talking to Qian Xi about this matter. If he continued, it seemed that he was not smart enough.
After Gao Mingli and Qian Xi bought the things, they went back and told Li Le what they had heard.
Li Le only learned that the temple had been demolished, and his expression did not change at all. This time his divination came true, that is, in four months, Dai Viet would be destroyed.
This made Li Lezhi nervous again. According to his intuition, after Zhaoguo and Xueguo dealt with Daiyue, they would definitely attack Daliang. The reason why the two of them joined forces must be because of him.
In the past, he would not be so narcissistic, but as his divinations came true one by one, Li Le knew that his existence was a huge threat to both countries.
Only by getting rid of him can Prince Yin better conquer the Snow Kingdom and become the emperor who unifies the world.
Relying on the other party's ambition, Prince Yin will definitely convince the Snow Country.
The Snow Country will also put him first. Only by getting rid of Daliang can the Snow Country and Zhao Country slowly wear each other down.
The situation is not favorable for them.
Li Le didn't know what to do. He and Emperor Zhao were not very familiar with each other, and Emperor Zhao didn't seem to trust him. After losing the connection with Zhao Xuan, how could he make Emperor Zhao take him seriously?
It would be better if the little apprentice could be a few years older.
Li Le was not only worried about this, but Emperor Zhao was also very worried. Ever since Zhao Xuan's funeral, he had been bedridden and was rarely awake.
This time, after Emperor Zhao regained consciousness, he said weakly, "Go and call the Prime Minister."
Eunuch Liu responded and then stepped back.
Emperor Zhao was lying on the bed. He felt weak. It seemed that he would not live long because of Xuan'er's death. This made Emperor Zhao afraid.
Given Daliang's current situation, only the third prince is capable of shouldering the heavy responsibility, but he also knows that the third prince's temperament makes him unsuitable to be the emperor, especially to confront Crown Prince Yin.
Prince Yin was a cunning man, and even an old fox like him might not be able to defeat him. In the mind of Emperor Zhao, the other party might be happy to see Emperor Zhao killed, so he did not stop him and did not investigate further.
Emperor Zhao had to admit that even if Xuan'er was still alive, without the help of Immortal Li, Xuan'er alone might not be able to defeat the ambitious Prince Yin.
The opponent has bared his fangs, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
There is only one person who can save Daliang, and that is Li Shenxian.
Emperor Zhao was very clear about this, but was also very hesitant. Immortal Li was not an ordinary person, so how could they, a group of ordinary people, forcibly retain him? Therefore, he had no intention of using high positions and generous salaries to hinder Immortal Li's steps.
He thought that he could continue to live and watch Zhao Cong grow up, and Zhao Cong would also ask Li Shenxian to protect him because of their relationship as master and disciple, and not become a king who lost his country.
But now, he didn't have much time left. Even though he knew that what he was about to do would blaspheme the gods and would displease the gods, for the sake of Daliang and Zhao Cong, he still wanted to give it a try.
Emperor Zhao coughed twice.
After a while, Prime Minister Gongsun came and bowed to Emperor Zhao.
Emperor Zhao glanced at Eunuch Liu, who immediately retreated silently.
Only Emperor Zhao and Prime Minister Gongsun were left in the bedroom.
Emperor Zhao lowered his voice and said, "I don't have much time left. I want to make Zhao Cong the crown prince. In addition, I want to ask Li Shenxian to become the state teacher of Daliang."
"Your Majesty," Gongsun Gu was horrified.
Emperor Zhao held out his hand to stop him from talking. "I know my body well, you don't need to say more. You will have to take care of Cong'er in the future. You are also one of his maternal family members, so you can't make things difficult for him. He is still young, and you have to teach him if there is anything he doesn't understand."
"Well, there aren't many things I can wake up for every day. To make a long story short, after Cong'er was made the crown prince, I wasn't worried about the child. With Immortal Li protecting him, he wouldn't be able to withstand too much harm. The only thing I'm worried about is whether Immortal Li is willing to stay. Wait..."
Gongsun Gu had a complicated expression, and for a moment he didn't know whether he was happy or sad. He was happy that Zhao Cong had ascended to the throne, but when he thought that Emperor Zhao had not much time left, he was worried.
The two had known each other for decades, and he had long been prepared to leave before Emperor Zhao. He never expected that Emperor Zhao would leave before him.
In addition, Gongsun Gu was very worried about what Emperor Zhao said later. Could this really work?
This is forcing a god to stay in the world. Unlike in the past, those Taoist priests were mortals after all and could not stay for fame and fortune. According to his observation, Immortal Li is not the kind of person who can be moved by money.
You have to know that Li Shenxian is already the Prince's Grand Tutor and holds the first-rank official position, but he still wears a simple green robe on weekdays. Even the food and things he uses are very ordinary. At most, he would often go to Feng'an Tower for a meal.
As for Feng'an Tower, it was Minister Zhou who took Immortal Li to that place. Apart from that, Immortal Li had no other place he liked to go, nor anything he liked. He looked like he had no desires or requests. Perhaps only a person like him could achieve enlightenment and become an immortal, without being contaminated by the secular world.
And now, Emperor Zhao actually wants such a divine figure to stay in Daliang forever. This is simply a fantasy. Even if he gives Immortal Li the position of national teacher, Immortal Li may not agree to it.
but!
If it is feasible, Gongsun Gu would like to keep Immortal Li.
After discussing for a while, the two decided to do as Emperor Zhao said, so that Immortal Li could feel their importance and sincerity in this matter.
He hoped that this incident would impress Li Shenxian and make him willing to stay in Daliang.
So, after deciding.
Emperor Zhao summoned all the officials and talked about this matter in the court. No one objected. They also knew that if they wanted to survive surrounded by wolves, they could only rely on the immortal Li.
The officials were still feeling lucky that Emperor Zhao had a clear mind and was willing to swallow his pride and not uphold his imperial dignity.
They had previously suspected that the reason why Emperor Zhao had been so slow to appoint Immortal Li as the Imperial Master was that he was extremely narrow-minded and jealous of Immortal Li's abilities.
They never expected that Emperor Zhao actually had so many thoughts in mind. They had wronged him.
Thinking of what Emperor Zhao had just said in the court, all the officials had expectant expressions on their faces. They were about to participate in a major event that would become a record in history books.
Even if it is just a word like civil and military officials, it is proof that each of them has left a mark in history.
In fact, the higher the official, the more likely they are to leave their names in this matter. Who can not look forward to it? Thinking further, many years later, this group of officials will not be old yet, wearing red robes, standing in the front row, and may leave behind a few words. Even they can write today's feat in their epitaphs.
Therefore, no one was unwilling to go.
Upon seeing this, Emperor Zhao waved his hand and agreed to all the requests, so that Immortal Li could sense their intentions.
History books say so.
The Emperor of Zhao and all the officials knelt in front of the Prince's Grand Tutor's Mansion and prayed to the Immortal Li to be the Grand Tutor of Daliang. (Note: All the officials are all the officials in the capital of Daliang, including me, the historian Yan Sheng, who wrote this sentence.)
That is the incident of the Yue State Temple being demolished.
