Tang Dynasty

Chapter 829: Willing to be safe for loyal ministers

Views:

After all, because of the special circumstances of the frontier area, the land of Annan did not have enough time and effort to carry out relatively thorough social transformation; coupled with the fact that the Tideway as a base at that time, the states were not yet completely stabilized, and they were ensuring basic food production. Under the premise of exporting and supplying, we focused on eradicating and banning those rich family names with rebellious or latent self-reliance, and many small and medium-sized local households remained.

Therefore, after the Taiping Army accumulated enough power to go north in the Lingnei, it began to use administrative methods and interests for the military, and gradually moved out of the more influential surnames; and then used paid recruitment methods to transfer them in batches. Take the corresponding Ding Zhuang and encourage the importation of native slaves to replace the corresponding labor gap; coupled with the suppression and deterrence of coastal ports and armed villages, it has been able to maintain a smooth transition to this day.

However, with the further consolidation of Liangling and Jinghu, it is also possible to consider further social transformation and the construction of local governments at all levels with sufficient force and material input. Of course, considering the areas where the Barbarians are mixed, if you don't rely on clan blood as a bond, it's really hard to get a foothold, let alone a long-term see-saw confrontation.

Therefore, the Metropolitan Government will give them more choices than the usual policies and practices of the inland areas. In addition to dividing families and setting up households on the spot, or taking the tribe to move to more prosperous ridges for resettlement in different places; you can also form a corresponding border development team with the support of the Metropolitan Government to reversely plunder and occupy the barbaric mountains and forests. Field soil and small animals.

At the same time, this is also a further layout for the possible future chaos of the Nanzhao regime on the historical line and its chain reaction; therefore, it also needs a person who has enough weight to sit behind and who is able to be familiar with the various local sentiments and abuses. Thinking of this, Zhou Huaian once again ordered:

"Let Qu Chengyu and Zhang Biao, each come to ask questions..."

—I am the dividing line —

And in Dantu City, Runzhou, on the lower reaches of the river, real Puxiang, no, he should be a Taoist Puxiang now, and a new day is also ushered in amidst the dullness. Since he brought out the key news from Yangzhou City, his long-term latent mission has been cancelled; the corresponding social mediation department has also been given two choices. One is to return to the role of the monk Puxiang, and this is where the ancient Buddha of the Blue Lantern has an end to the past.

The other continued to use his expertise as a member of the Huainan Taoist Academy, continue to live as a Taoist priest, and give full play to the corresponding expertise and remaining heat. It was just the secret spy and hidden piles that lurked from the field, and then turned back to the eyeliner with the nature of local supervision in the internal field, and became one of the peripheral nodes on the line of religious people.

Therefore, he finally chose the second route of staying in the secret department and the system; in addition to not believing that these government offices, who specialize in gloomy activities, can treat himself as a group of secret spies/agents who have participated in many enemy's internal affairs. Apart from truly letting go; there are also a little bit of other selfishness and calculations.

After all, he is still young, and there are a lot of years to enjoy life and various opportunities; not to mention that after enjoying those sensual activities in the filthy Yangzhou Taoist Academy, he does not think that he will be able to enjoy life in the second half of his life. I endured the loneliness and solitude of living in Buddhism; at least most Taoist temples under the rule of the Taiping Army were the source of the Shangqing and Lingbao sects who couldn't help but marry the secular.

If possible, he would also like to try all kinds of mundane affection like the common people; and even buy a family business or have a certain career and reputation, and finally have the chance to get grandchildren, even in Surrounded by children and grandchildren, it will last forever. Therefore, he became a master Taoist of Chongningguan in Dantu City as scheduled.

Of course, this is somewhat related to the current situation of the religious sect under the rule of the Taiping Army. Because of the chief governor, from Liangling to Jinghu, from Shannan to Jiangxi and Jiangdong, almost all Buddhist schools are gaining momentum. Although the large capital governor’s mansion was not at all polite to clean up and liquidate the Buddhism, he successively confiscated countless monks’ properties and lands; but it also caused a large number of lay monks to participate in various fields of the Taiping Army.

However, the Taoist door that was admired by Li and Tang for hundreds of years was inevitably falling into the decline and shrinking of believers and places under the rule of the Taiping Army. (Note: Li Tang regards Laozi as the ancestor/Emperor Xuanyuan, so the five emperors Gaozu, Taizong, Gaozong, Zhongzong, and Ruizong are enshrined at the same time outside the portrait of Laozi. Therefore, the big ones are edicted as palaces, and the small ones are called Guan. The Louguan School in Guannei was at its peak.)

Therefore, as a balancing method to encourage reasonable competition among the teachings in a certain sense, some of the industries that have been copied in the main cities are taken out of the view, and the official urn is the host to meet the needs of some folk rituals. It is also a disguised propaganda of "Taiping Essentials" and "Taiping Ching Lingshu Interpretation", and so on re-editing the Taoist books.

Therefore, similar places are also staff inside and outside of the Taiping Ministry of Intelligence and governance. In a sense, they are one of the covert identities and external strongholds. Of course, the Taoist Puxiang actually has another task, which is to use himself as a bait; Lure those survivors of Huainan Taoist Temple, or old acquaintances (fish that slip through the net) in Huaiyang Town to meet and reunite.

However, the current wait-and-see situation is still nothing. However, he consciously improved his skills in rituals, chanting, and rituals under the care of food and clothing and self-cultivation, and he became more clear after reading Buddhist scriptures before. Soon, the fragrance that came out of the fire cooker broke the pure heart that he had cultivated for the whole morning.

He can easily smell it. Lunch is a so-called "clean" stewed together with vegetable balls, mountain mushrooms, tofu skin, bamboo shoots, quail eggs, fungus and mustard cores, and then paired with new potato rice. Steaming melon noodles is a delicious meal, which is also one of the crafts that I took a rest in Huainan Daoyuan.

And although the structure of this Chongning View is not big, even he is not a few people; but he is in a quiet place in the busy city of Dantu City, which is densely populated and bustling with business travel; therefore, even if he does not accept any offerings, Just relying on three days of fishing and two days of drying nets for others, is enough to make his life quite moist.

Just as Pu Xiang had just picked up the small pestle and wanted to knock on the cloud board to greet the guy, suddenly there was a big noise outside, and a childish fireman also stumbled in and was out of breath. Shouted angrily:

"The deacon in charge will come out and see, the governor's house has caught the King Gaojun of Yangzhou in the forefront. Now he is escorting across the street. The big guys are all coming to see!"

Pu Xiang couldn’t help but fell into a daze when he heard the words; the former first-ranked general of the imperial court, known as "the servant of the fallen carving", "the southern sky and one pillar", and the "wall city of the country", Gao Linggong and Gao of Huai Town Taiwei, was it just taken by the Taiping Army? In terms of the influence and weight of this incident in the southeast, it is no better than Huang Chao's entry into the two capitals and the capture of the civil and military differences of the dynasty.

"Call everyone, go with you, go with you!"

Taoist Puxiang did not hesitate to:

"Deacon, what about lunch..."

However, the other-named Huoju boy who was about to start a group suddenly hesitated and said:

"Rice bag, is it possible that you will be hungry after a while?"

Taoist Puxiang couldn't help but knocking on his head from the floating dust:

"Such a grand occasion, you may have it in this life!"

On the street, immediately after the horse-drawn carriage, the temporary battalion Zheng Lin Qianjun, who was unable to restrain his excitement and joy, was also numb with his smile. Because no one here took the opportunity to take away or try to share the credit for him, instead he was given the opportunity to personally escort to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion in Gangneung to receive corresponding public visits and inquiries.

Because according to the statement of the Zhu Dakai under the Guangling City, the Taiping Army defeated the prisoners and killed the imperial commander or Jizhen. But this Gaoju Taiwei, the envoy of the country of Bohai, is afraid that he is currently being defeated. The captor has the highest rank and the best reputation. Although there was a luck element by chance, it was also his great opportunity.

From the Jiangbei road, instead of taking the convenient and fast waterway, it slowly makes a large circle along the main trunk of the official road, passing by the Jiangdong 3rd Road, Jiangxi Hunan, and Jingnan along the river. To the city of Dayi. Naturally, it is also a special declared political mission requirement, and it is not without the potential intention of catching all the unruly and nostalgic people in the place.

You know, when General Zhang was publicly escorted northward, he was attacked and robbed by fake robbers twice. In the end, it became a bloody storm that swept through many places in Jiangdong. Thousands of people were sentenced to death. Therefore, the timely opportunity of this escort trip was also a test for the squad of southern Zhejiang survivors headed by Lin Qianjun.

In contrast, the old-fashioned King Gao Jun who was showing the public in the special prison car made him a little bit unable to understand. Ever since I knew I was a prisoner of the Taiping Army, I stopped talking anymore; I then took pictures of the food and slept when it was time for me to sleep. As a result, after the travel time, my complexion improved

At this moment, he was sitting in the car bar with hands down and closed his eyes to rest up his mind. He was calm and relaxed, unheard of and indifferent to the many and complicated disturbances of the outside world; it's a pity that he was not in the solemn divine method. On the altar, this unmarked plain cloth shirt on his body made the illusion of this skinny fairy wind somewhat funny.

It’s just that Lin Qianjun, because of his close proximity, can still hear him sitting upright, while still faintly humming an unknown scripture: "The husband and the saint never forget the danger, and always regard fear as the truth. This. If there is nothing to fear and avoid, then the common affairs will be bad." "The husband’s health preservation, its existence is in the scrolls. It may be a faint secret, a doubtful heart. As for the inner view of Chengshen, it is not a small thing Wisdom."

Then, suddenly a handful of rotten vegetable leaves that flew in the air and hit the car rail with a crackle, suddenly broke Gao Pian's effort to maintain this kind of demeanor and calm state, and quickly opened his eyes and kicked around. . I heard a broken gong shout from the crowd on the street:

"You high old dog, even if Lu Yaodao troubles the place, how many people have been killed! Return my wife and children..."

This sentence is like opening a threshold for venting emotions in the street. In an instant, all kinds of accusations and scolding and anger, coupled with the various seasonal vegetables and vegetables thrown by the hand, almost flooded it before stepping out of the city gate. The jail car, even Lin Qianjun, who had to get close to prevent accidents, suffered a lot in vain.

But instead, he has a kind of inexplicable comfort. The so-called "life for people's livelihood" in the so-called peace vow is nothing more than this. (End of this chapter)
