Going to the Buddhist world would only require one battle, but here he might have to fight seventy-five battles. Fusu instantly felt regretful.
As Fusu drove away more and more people, a rumor gradually spread in the capital that the nemesis of the powerful and wealthy had subdued the contemporary Taoist monks and was going to take the Taoist monks to subdue the Buddhists!
…
On the East Third Ring Road of the capital, the second-rank Minister of Personnel Wu Chaozong lived here.
At this time, an old man in purple official uniform came to the study of Wu Mansion under the guidance of his servants.
I knocked on the door and heard a deep voice from inside: "Come in."
When I opened the door, I saw a man with a goatee, who looked to be in his fifties, writing something at the table.
The man's weathered eyes were full of wisdom, and his every move was full of majesty.
This person was none other than Wu Chaozong, the head of the Wu family in the capital and the current Minister of Personnel.
Although he looks like he is in his fifties, he has actually been in officialdom for more than ninety years. He only looks young because of his achievements in cultivation.
Wu Chaozong glanced at the old man in front of him and asked calmly, "Minister Pan, why do you have the leisure to come to me today?"
The old man in front of him was none other than Pan Kun, the second-rank Minister of Rites.
Pan Kun said worriedly, "Minister Wu, the person who was originally scheduled to go to the Buddhist world for inspection this year was Ye Jin, the Minister of Rites, but now..."
Before he could finish his words, Wu Chaozong slammed the brush in his hand onto the table, interrupting Pan Kun.
While folding the paper covered with words on the table and putting it into the envelope, he said, "There is no need to mention this matter anymore. This year, it is not our turn to go to the Buddhist world for inspection."
"This... Is there nothing the Left Prime Minister can do?" Pan Kun asked unwillingly.
Wu Chaozong paused, glanced at Pan Kun unhappily, and said, "The Left Prime Minister has other plans. And if it weren't for your poor management of your people, which led to such a huge mistake at the Holy Doctor Festival, how could you have lost this candidate now?"
Pan Kun realized that Wu Chaozong was talking about Ye Jin, the Minister of Rites, and sighed. "Is this my fault? I really have so much pain that I can't express it."
Wu Chaozong ignored Pan Kun. As far as the result was concerned, Ye Jin's position was destined to be inseparable from the success or failure of the Holy Doctor's Festival.
"The emperor is very dissatisfied with the incident involving the Saint Doctor's blood. We should not be too aggressive at this time. Since those warriors want it, let them take it."
Upon hearing this, Wu Chaozong had no choice but to give up.
"By the way, I heard that the nemesis of the powerful and wealthy in the capital is very close to the Taoists, is that right?" Wu Chaozong asked casually.
Pan Kun was stunned and replied, "It seems that there is indeed such a rumor among the people, saying that this Fu Yewei has subdued the Taoist monk.
"But you also know that such rumors cannot be true. After all, the Dao Sect will not allow a contemporary walker to succumb to the hands of a mere Fu Yewei."
Wu Chaozong nodded. "He's from Wu Hou's side, right? Whether it's true or not is not important. Just the rumor is enough. Let him go to the Buddhist world review this time."
Pan Kun looked at Wu Chaozong in confusion. Why would such a meritorious task as the Buddhist review be assigned to a junior from an enemy faction?
Wu Chaozong looked at the letter in his hand and said slowly, "Don't the generals want this opportunity? Then give it to them. But whether the result will be good or bad is unknown.
"Since the Holy Doctor's Day ended with this little Fuye Guard, then the Buddhist world... will also be opened by him."
I've been sorting out the outline for the next part these two days, so I'll update once for now and resume tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
