Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 193: Evil prevails



Chapter 193 The Evil Manifests the Righteous

   See Li Chaowen bow down.

  Everyone... was stunned.

  Uncle Xinjian, everyone naturally knows who it is, isn\'t this his uncle?

   But the problem is, even if the uncle is here, it\'s enough to do a salute, so why kneel.

  What\'s more, Li Chaowen has changed from a pheasant to a phoenix now, and even... this time it is very likely that he will soar into the sky and become a real person.

  This real person is a second-rank Taoist.

  Even when the Ming Dynasty was founded, the original Zhengyi celestial masters were all called real people.

  It was still in the Hongwu Dynasty, when Zhang Yuchu, the celestial master, came on a pilgrimage to see Emperor Gao, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty. When the **** introduced Zhang Yuchu as a real person, Emperor Gao shouted: "Is there a teacher in the sky? Change the name to the real person."

  Thus, the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain was once changed to the Real Man Mansion, and the hereditary celestial masters all called themselves real people.

It wasn\'t until later, after Emperor Taizu Gao, that people called them Heavenly Masters again, but even Zhang Tianshi was actually only the title of a real person, and the number of real people bestowed by Ming Dynasty was only seven or eight, very few. Li Zhenren, a Xinjian uncle, may not be afraid.

But…

  The person who came was not the uncle, but a servant of the Fang family.

  Looking at Deng Jiana hiding under the coir raincoat and wearing a green dress, he is clearly a servant, not an important person.

   But in the face of such a servant, Li Chaowen knelt down, with a particularly pious and respectful expression on his face, not at all as calm and calm as when he was talking to everyone just now.

  For a dog in Fang\'s family, he had to show respect, which surprised everyone, and even stared at him with wide-eyed eyes, all with incredible expressions.

  But Li Chaowen knew in his heart at this moment, and he was very clear, who gave everything to him.

  He also has self-knowledge. If the uncle can kill Zhang Chaoxian by himself, he can also pinch his fingers and kill himself.

  The shadow of the uncle gave him a feeling of being breathless.

Now he has become a Taoist who calls the wind and rain, and in the future, he is very likely to be named a real person, succeeding Zhang Chaoxian, and becoming the master of Longquan Temple. Even in the future, he will have many disciples and grandchildren, but he understands better than anyone else. I am nothing.

  The person who can predict the destiny is the uncle, he has achieved himself.

  If he wants to maintain his present, he has to show respect to his uncle. As for other people\'s eyes, is it important?

   It seemed important, but he didn\'t care.

  I don’t care about a fart, there is no uncle, I am now living on the street, and my life and death are unknown.

Even Deng Jian was taken aback by his sudden movement. It was raining, and the ground was full of mud. With this kneeling, Li Chaowen, who was still decent just now, turned into a clay figurine in an instant, and he was very embarrassed. .

  But Li Chaowen didn\'t seem to care at all, but said respectfully: "Xiao Dao respectfully listens to my uncle\'s teachings."

  The rain fell on him, but he didn\'t notice it, and he looked like he was enjoying it.

   Seeing the respectful Li Chaowen, Deng Jian seemed timid instead, thinking, this person must have a brain disorder too, his brows hidden under the coir raincoat frowned, and the next moment he couldn\'t help but speak embarrassingly.

"Young Master said, the drought has lasted for so long, and the Zhuangzi of Longquan Temple has not been reclaimed so far. Now it is the middle of the year, and it may be too late to plant other grains. From now on, all farm households must plant old ginseng from Xishan. Who dares to plant it?" If not, the rented land will be taken back immediately.”

  The Taoists behind were in an uproar.

  What a thousand-year-old ginseng, I haven\'t heard of it, it\'s just nonsense.

The farm is the biggest source of income for Longquan Temple. Although Longquan Temple is a diversified business, such the largest expenditure is not a joke. How can it rashly plant other crops, and they are still unheard of crops. Now, taking advantage of the rain , I have to rush to grow grain, and maybe I can collect some grain at the end of the year.

   Such things, of course, can\'t be easily agreed, and accidents will happen.

  If you agree, it will ruin Longquan audience.

   Therefore, all the Taoists opened their eyes wide, staring at Li Chaowen who was kneeling on the ground, expecting him to reject such an unreasonable request.

  However, Li Chaowen did not hesitate at all, but said solemnly.

   "Xiaodao is taught, please report back to the uncle, this is a trivial matter, since the uncle has ordered, Xiaodao will never fail to obey."

  Answer... I agree...

   All the Taoists were terrified, looked at Li Chaowen in confusion, the corners of their mouths trembling slightly, did they just agree?

  Li Chaowen ignored everyone\'s gaze, but stood up and sent Deng Jian off respectfully with a smile.

   "Walk slowly, it\'s raining, the path is slippery."

  Deng Jian rode his horse and quickly returned to his command.

  As soon as Li Chaowen turned around, he saw countless dumbfounded Taoists. Just now he was honest and respectful, but when he turned around, he regained the arrogance with his eyes above his head.

   "Zhang Chaoxian..."

  When the Taoists heard about Zhang Chaoxian, they couldn\'t help pricking up their ears.

Li Chaowen narrowed his eyes and stared at the Taoist temple, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he said lightly: "I will report his crimes to the Tianshi Mansion and the Daolu Department, you should take it as a warning... "

  Hoo...

  All the Taoist priests in the rain felt a little bit in their hearts. They believed that Zhang Chaoxian was completely over.

A Taoist who just summoned the wind and called the rain and solved the great trouble for the imperial court, Dao Lusi probably enshrined him as a father. broadcast, and he must be responsive to Li Chaowen\'s requests.

  In the Longquan temple, except for the master, whoever blocks Li Chaowen will die! Zhang Chaoxian, this old dog, is destined to end.

  Everyone was stunned, originally there were people who wanted to persuade, that old ginseng is really suspicious, it is better to be cautious. Or, open up dozens of acres of land and try to plant it first, and the tenants and farmers may not agree to that.

  But now...the person who wants to persuade has already rotted all these words in his stomach.

  Everyone cheered and jumped for joy: "Senior brother (brother), get back to the source, except Zhang Chaoxian, an old dog, and let us see justice in Longquan."

  Li Chaowen dusted off the mud on his body, glanced at the Taoists casually, and smiled slightly: "Of course, after all... evil does not prevail!"

  ...

It is bright.

  The torrential rain for several days in a row almost flooded Zhu Houzhao, who was so frightened that he had the urge to pack his bags and run away.

   When the rain stopped, he breathed a long sigh of relief. If it was difficult to beg for rain, but the capital was flooded, it would be very bad.

Today is a big day. After the palace examination, after the palace examination of the new champion, the officials from the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rituals will hold the imperial decree and ring the gong to clear the way, while our champion Ouyang Zhi is wearing a red robe and a hat with a palace flower. He is a steed, walking on the imperial street of the imperial city, accepting congratulations from all the people, because he has the emperor\'s imperial decree, no matter what officials, they must kneel down to greet the imperial decree, kowtow to the imperial decree, and shout long live.

Ouyang Zhi was sitting on the tall horse, with tears of excitement in his eyes, the gong in front of the road cleared the way, and then he was holding the first place in Yijia, Qianqiu Enrong and other brands. Ouyang Zhi thought that when he got married back then, he was also such a tall horse , is also so arrogant.

  People who come and go are all envious. The officials in the past knelt down and worshiped beside the imperial road, and he swaggered through the market. This kind of honor is unique.

  If it weren\'t for my mentor, how could I be where I am today.

  For a moment, Ouyang Zhi was moved by the scene, looking at the majestic Forbidden City wall and the Bell and Drum Tower not far from the royal road, he burst into tears with excitement.

   Immediately afterwards, there was a banquet in the palace for the new Jinshi.

   This banquet is actually just a formality. In many cases, the emperor just came once and then left.

  Who wants to have dinner with you?

  Emperor Hongzhi was very interested, and led the cabinet scholars to the Jinshen Hall (previously written as the Hall of Supreme Harmony, sorry), and sat down.

   All Jinshi stood up and saluted.

  Emperor Hongzhi looked around at the crowd, then said with a smile, "Let\'s all be flat, Qing and others are all pillars, so there is no need to be polite."

  Everyone sit down.

   Ouyang Zhi, Tang Yin, and Liu Wenshan are ranked first, so they sit at the top.

  Emperor Hongzhi\'s majestic eyes fell on Ouyang Zhi. Compared with the excitement of other people, Ouyang Zhi\'s calmness gave him a deep impression.

  This young man is really rare, he is so calm.

  Emperor Hongzhi felt emotional in his heart, and the next moment he said with a smile, "Ouyang Qing\'s family."

Quiet…

   After a while, Ouyang Zhi was half a beat behind: "The minister is here."

Emperor Hongzhi couldn\'t help but pat his thighs and applaud. He really hides his secrets. This man has the style of a general, and he doesn\'t say anything when he speaks maturely. Minister\'s demeanor.

  Fang Jifan...the disciples are well-rounded.

   That\'s great.

  Emperor Hongzhi was very satisfied, nodding repeatedly, with a smile on his face.

   "Qing is the number one scholar, and I am here to give a banquet, why is Qing not happy?"

  Ouyang Zhi paused again, and then slowly answered: "I don\'t like wine and meat."

  Emperor Hongzhi\'s eyes were bright, and his face was full of color. This statement really won the emperor\'s heart.

  He raised his eyebrows, and asked Ouyang Zhi with great interest: "Then, why is Qing so happy?"

  Ouyang Zhi paused for a moment, without any fluctuation in his eyes.

To be honest, if such a person were to be placed in a later life, it would not be an exaggeration to put him directly in a mental hospital, but here, on this occasion, compared with other people who are surprised, stunned, and terrified, it is extremely rare .

  Ouyang Zhi thought for a while, then answered truthfully.

   "When the En House is happy, the subject is happy, but if the En House is not happy, the minister is in constant fear."

   "..." Emperor Hongzhi was taken aback again, this answer was really beyond his expectation, and he was very surprised.

   Immediately, his eyes met Liu Jian\'s on one side, and he could feel the appreciation in Liu Jian\'s eyes.

  Emperor Hongzhi... also appreciated it to the extreme.

  When En Mansion is happy, he is happy, but when En Mansion is not happy, he panics like a stray dog. What is this? This is a respected teacher.
