The Taoist nun and the young man surnamed Fang went to the hall to discuss something with the King of Shu. Behind Li Yi stood a few men in blue clothes, who seemed to be protecting them, but they were actually guarding them.
Li Yi turned his head and glanced in a certain direction. The King of Shu actually hooked up with someone from a cult. The old emperor is not dead yet. Could it be that this guy really wants to rebel
Li Yi still doesn't know what the purpose of this sacred religion is, but historical experience tells him that it would be a pity if a non-governmental organization gathered more than 100,000 people and did not rebel.
Along the way, he also got a lot of information from the few words of these believers.
The headquarters of this "Holy Cult" is in Qi State, and the 100,000 congregants are talking about Qi State. Judging from the situation they encountered along the way, they have obviously developed to a certain extent in Jing State, but they don't know about other countries. Whether there is their shadow, if there is, this organization is too huge.
If these people want to rebel, it is estimated that the old emperor will inevitably have a headache.
"This brother looks unfamiliar, isn't he from Shuzhou?" A voice came from the side, Li Yi turned his head and saw a young man raising his wine glass and walking towards this side.
Li Yi always felt that he was a little familiar, and he must have seen him before, but he probably didn't say a few words, because apart from a little familiarity, he really couldn't find anything more about him in his memory.
Li Yi nodded and said, "No, he's from Kyoto."
"In Xiajiang Zian, he was then the county magistrate of Yong County." The young man smiled and sat down beside him.
"Jiang Zian?"
Li Yi finally searched for more information through this name, Prince Ning's Mansion, Jiang Zian, Cui Yanxin, at the beginning they made things difficult for Wan Ruoqing in Prince Ning's Mansion, and later there was a lot of trouble, the culprits were this person and Cui Yanxin.
Later, I heard that they were implicated because of this. Among the Jinshi of the same year, only the appointment of these two people was temporarily suppressed. Later, I met Cui Yanxin in the Shu Palace. I didn't expect that in this remote Shuzhou, I could meet another person. An "old friend".
Li Yi cupped his hands and said, "Master Jiang, I'm Li Xuan."
"Brother Li is too polite, just call me 'Zian'." Jiang Zian smiled, and then said: "However, Brother Li's name is exactly the same as a friend of Jiang's."
Li Yi looked at him with a smile, and asked, "Brother Jiang said, but Li Xuan, Prince Ning's son?"
Jiang Zian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I forgot, Brother Li is from the capital, so he must have heard of the name of Prince Li Xuan."
Li Yi cupped his hands and said: "The son of Li Xuan is one of the three masters of the capital. I didn't expect Brother Jiang to be familiar with him. It's really disrespectful and disrespectful."
"Where is there..." Jiang Zian waved his hand, smiled indifferently, and said, "It's nothing, I and Chang'an County Bo Li Yi are also close friends, didn't you tell Brother Li?"
"Oh? Brother Jiang and that Li Yi are inseparable?" Li Yi looked surprised, and said in a low voice: "I heard that His Royal Highness the King of Shu and that Li Yi have a deep hatred, Brother Jiang, you..."
The expression on Jiang Zian's face was stunned, he laughed, and said, "Just kidding, kidding, Brother Li, don't take it seriously..., Li Yi and I are actually not that familiar, Brother Li, don't spread the word..."
Jiang Zian changed the subject and asked, "Brother Li and that Brother Fang are very familiar, I don't know what is the background of that Brother Fang?"
"I'm not very familiar..." Li Yi shook his head and said, "Actually, this is the first time I've seen him today."
The expression on Jiang Zian's face was a little disappointed. Judging by His Royal Highness Shu's attitude towards Brother Fang, it is very unusual. If he can make friends, there may be another way out in the future. Originally, he wanted to find out something from here, but this purpose was in vain. up.
"Brother Jiang is this Yongxian county captain?" Li Yi suddenly looked at him and asked.
Idle is also idle, listening to this brother Jiang bragging, it's good to pass the time.
Jiang Zian nodded with some disappointment, and when he was about to say a few words of greetings and leave, he suddenly heard the young man on the opposite side say: "To be honest, I have been a county lieutenant for a while..."
"Huh?" Jiang Zian was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Brother Li was also a county captain?"
"Yes." Li Yi sighed, and said, "The past is unbearable, so I won't mention it, I won't mention it..."
At a certain moment, the way Jiang Zian looked at him changed immediately, he let out a long sigh, and said, "We are both degenerate people in Tianya, I never thought Brother Li and Jiang would have the same experience..."
He drank the wine in his glass, sighed again, and said: "Like us, we have studied hard for more than ten years in order to be able to enter the official career. How can we make good fortune and deceive others? I, Jiang Zian, have a lot of ambitions." , but can only be huddled in this kind of place, as a small county lieutenant... "
…
The King of Shu smiled and said, "Don't worry, you can do whatever you want in this Shu Prefecture from now on, just agree to the things I have promised to you, don't forget."
"It should be so." The man surnamed Fang walked out of the hall, turned his head and cupped his hands at the King of Shu and said, "Your Highness, you don't need to send him far away."
After finishing speaking, he and the nun turned around and left.
Seeing the two walking away, a man behind the King of Shu said, "Your Highness, do we really want to cooperate with them? I'm afraid this man's ambition will be a big trouble."
The King of Shu waved his hand and said in a low voice: "When I ascend the throne, I'm still afraid of his petty ambitions. Don't worry, the day this king ascends the throne will be the day they will perish!"
The middle-aged nun who walked to the front paused and turned around.
The king of Shu saw it from a distance, and laughed loudly: "The Taoist priest, go slowly!"
…
Jiang Zian's drunken eyes were hazy, he patted the table and said: "From now on, in this Yong County, if Brother Li encounters any troubles, feel free to come to the county government to find me..."
Li Yi smiled and cupped his hands and said, "Then thank Mr. Jiang."
Jiang Zian waved his hand and said dissatisfiedly, "There's no need to be polite between us, just call me 'Zian'!"
Li Yi saw the Taoist nun coming from a distance, and said: "I'm afraid Li is going to leave, brother Jiang, we will meet again by fate!"
"Remember to come to the county government to find me!" Jiang Zian lay on the table, muttered something, and fell into a deep sleep.
"You guys knew each other before?" Seeing Jiang Zian's appearance, the man surnamed Fang asked in surprise.
"Just met."
It may be a common encounter that aroused a certain emotion in Brother Jiang's chest. After just a few words, he was introduced as a confidant in life, and he was heart-to-heart. He wished he had known him for twenty years earlier, and almost married Jinlan on the spot. …
Of course, it might just be because of his own personality charm.
After all, although the mask covered his face, his temperament could not be covered. If the mask was removed, the effect would be better.
"Our strength in Jingguo is still very weak. Although there are many believers in Kyoto, they are now being watched by the government and dare not act rashly. In places like Shuzhou, the government does not do much, which is more suitable for the development of the holy religion. The King of Shu has made an agreement, he will not stop us, and he can even provide us with convenience, but there is still a shortage of silver and silver, and the King of Shu is not willing to provide us with... "
I don't know if the young man didn't treat him as an outsider, or if what he said at this moment is not a secret. Li Yi was slightly surprised that the King of Shu really messed with these people.
"It's best to let him become a follower of my Holy Cult. The King of Shu is the eldest son of Emperor Jingguo. He is most likely to live in the East Palace. When he inherits the Datong in the future and ascends the throne of God..."
When the young man was talking about these things a little excitedly, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"The king of Shu is most likely to succeed?" Li Yi looked at the young man in surprise, and asked, "Don't you usually care about the government?"
The young man was startled, turned his head, frowned at Li Yi, and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
"Have you ever thought about why the King of Shu was expelled to Shu Prefecture when he lived well in the capital?"
"Which emperor would expel the crown prince from Beijing when he was seriously ill?"
"A few months ago, Prime Minister Qin no longer supported the King of Shu, and the family of the King of Shu has lost the support of Prime Minister Qin. Have you ever thought about the reason behind this?"
"Why doesn't the Academy of Mathematical Sciences, which the imperial court places high hopes on, have a student who has a relationship with the King of Shu?"
"In just half a year, the court has undergone several major purges. You haven't checked it out. Who are the people who were purged?"
"Have you ever thought about what you will do to 100,000 believers if you act so rashly!"
…
…
What holy religion, Li Yi feels that he still thinks highly of them, their fame has become very domineering, and the intelligence system is simply scum, using the old Huang Li as the latest information, it's okay if they don't rebel, once they rebel, they will die sooner or later!
The Taoist turned to look at Li Yi with a thoughtful expression.
The expression on the face of the young man surnamed Fang froze, he opened his mouth and asked, "Is what you said true?"
