Text Chapter 954 Zuo Ci¡¯s Ambition

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Zuo Ci is indeed in trouble, because his plan to revive Taoism has encountered the greatest resistance, and this resistance is none other than Yan Liang, the current emperor of Chu.  />

    The Emperor of Dachu does not believe in gods, ghosts, or Buddhas. He is a complete madman who does not respect ghosts and gods, and has no fear of heaven or earth.

    Since Zhang Lu committed suicide and destroyed the Five Dou Rice Sect, officials at all levels in Dachu, under the instruction of Yan Liang, have continued to suppress the Taoist sect.

    The Danding Sect wants to build a Taoist temple in the county, but the government won't allow it. They want to open a forum to preach, but the government won't allow it. They want to openly recruit believers, but the government won't allow it.

    In short, although the government has not explicitly outlawed Taoist sects, they have always put small shoes on Taoist sects and prohibited their development and expansion.

    Under such an environment, Zuo Ci could only promote Taoism in secret, recruit followers secretly, and secretly develop Taoism without seeing the light.

    Under such circumstances, the revival and development of Taoism was naturally very slow, and was far from being able to satisfy Zuo Ci's ambition.

    However, although Yan Liang suppressed the Taoist sect, the temptation of the Taoist sect to refine elixirs for immortality still had considerable influence. Not only the common people, but also some officials secretly flirted with the Taoist sect and supported some Taoist priests to refine elixirs for them.

    Qinghe Prefect Quanzong, with a rank of two thousand stones, is the higher-ranking among these officials.

    Not long ago, Zuo Ci used Quan Zong's hand to offer Yan Liang a few elixirs, hoping that this would arouse Yan Liang's interest in seeking immortality, so that he could relax his suppression and even support his Taoist sect.

    Qin Shihuang, who had even eliminated the traitor, could not resist the temptation of immortality, not to mention Yan Liang, who was greedy for women.

    Zuo Ci thought that his method would be successful, but not long ago, the news came that Quanzong had been reprimanded, which made all Zuo Ci's hopes come to nothing.

    As a last resort.  Zuo Cicai came to Yanmen and came to ask Sima Yi for help.

    Yan Liang is young and powerful, and he may still rule the world for several decades. If the Taoist sect is suppressed for another few decades, it may inevitably lead to its demise.

    In order to avoid this bad luck, Zuo Ci could only rely on Sima Yi to defeat Yan Liang. Only when the Da Jin destroyed the Da Chu could the Taoist sect be revived.

    Zuo Ci didn¡¯t hide it either.  Tell your current situation frankly.

    Sima Yi¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change much, he just stroked his beard and nodded slightly, as if he had expected it.

    "Although I am a sworn enemy of Yan Liang, Yan's thieves are powerful now. Unless you can cause a big chaos like the Yellow Turban Rebellion and stir up bloodshed in the Central Plains, otherwise"

    Sima Yi didn¡¯t say any more. It was obvious that he was a little disdainful of Zuo Ci¡¯s strength.

    Zuo Ci smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, there is no need to underestimate the old people. These old people are keeping a low profile and secretly developing the Alchemy Sect. Although their strength is not as strong as that of Taiping Dao back then, they can still cause some trouble."

    Sima Yi¡¯s expression moved slightly, and a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes.

    "Furthermore, Yan Liang's hundreds of thousands of troops have been fighting for years. Although the taxes of the people in the two rivers have not been increased much. However, the labor force has continued, and there have been complaints secretly. I only need to use some means to add fuel to these complaints. I believe it will be  I can help His Majesty."

    Zuo Ci¡¯s confident words really impressed Sima Yi.  His originally gloomy face began to show a look of hope.

    According to Sima Yi¡¯s original plan, he wanted to hold on to Bingzhou, and when the resentment among the people in the Central Plains boiled, he would take advantage of it to counterattack.

    "It's a pity that Yan Liang's military force is too powerful. He can't wait until the day when the Chu people's resentment boils over and he is about to be destroyed."

    Now, the appearance of Zuo Ci has rekindled his hope.

    Although Zuo Ci does not have the power of Zhang Jiao, as long as he can make some waves in the Central Plains, forcing Yan Liang to retreat and giving him a chance to breathe, that is fine.

    "I'm very interested in hearing how the Taoist priest can incite the people to revolt." Sima Yi asked with a smile.

    Sima Yi already had the idea of ????cooperating with Zuo Ci, but he wanted to confirm that Zuo Ci had this ability. After all, this was no longer the era of Zhang Jiao. It was a bit awkward to think of inciting people to rebel just by refining a few so-called elixirs.  Realistic.

    "Your Majesty doesn't believe in me, so I'll show you some of my tricks." Zuo Ci smiled faintly and took a few steps towards the case.

    Sima Yi was full of curiosity, wanting to see what this veteran could do.

    But Zuo Ci shook his clothes and swept his fly whisk towards the desk. Wherever he passed, a silver ingot magically appeared.

    Sima Yi¡¯s expression changed drastically. He hurriedly picked up the silver ingot, looked at it carefully, and found that it was real.

    "Master Zuo, this is" Sima Yi held the silver ingot in his hand and looked at Zuo Ci in surprise, with a look of disbelief on his face.

    Zuo Ci smiled faintly and said: "I am old and incapable of talent. I have received the true teachings from the old immortal of Nanhua, and I have learned some immortal magic. I am proficient in the art of turning void into gold. Your Majesty wonders if I can use this technique to induce those people to revolt."  "

    "Of course, of course the ability, I now believe in Daozhang Zuo's ability." Sima Yi was surprised and looked at Zuo Ci with admiration.

    When Zhang Jiao incited Taiping Taoists to revolt, it was probably because many people could not bear the pain of oppression and followed Zhang Jiao in an angry rebellion.

    Although the people today are not as oppressed as they were back then, Zuo Ci can conjure money to induce them to cause trouble.

    As the saying goes, people make money and birds die for food. As long as there are enough benefits, even an honest person cannot bear the temptation.

    To put it bluntly, Zuo Ci wants to rely on his magical magic that can turn money into money to induce people to commit rebellion.

    Zuo Ci¡¯s method is completely different from Zhang Jiao¡¯s, but the effect is the same.

    Now Zuo Ci showed his skill and completely subdued Sima Yi, how could he not believe in Zuo Ci's ability.

    "As long as your Majesty believes in me, I will use this magical technique to help your Majesty." Zuo Ci smiled confidently.

    At this time, Sima Yi's mood calmed down and he asked again: "Taoist Master Zuo is so helpful to me, I'm afraid there are some conditions, so you might as well tell me directly."

    "Haha, your majesty is so quick to talk, you are indeed the master of your destiny." Zuo Ci laughed and said happily: "I don't want to beat around the bush anymore. I just want to be able to remember my merits after your majesty attacks Yan Liang and seizes the world.  Allow Taoism to develop freely and no longer suppress it.¡±

    Sure enough.

    Sima Yi nodded slightly. The conditions proposed by Zuo Ci were exactly what he had in mind.

    "Of course, today's Taoist sect is no longer what it used to be. After experiencing the lessons of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, we no longer dare to have any illegal thoughts about the sacred artifacts of the country. All I, the Taoist sect, want to do is open a forum to preach and promote the Taoism of the sages.  It only benefits all people and the country.¡±

    Zuo Ci made a promise to Sima Yi that the Taoist sect only preaches Taoism and will never imitate the Taiping Taoist and do the treasonous things.

    "I don't care if you preach or not, I will use your Taoist sect to resolve today's crisis first" Sima Yi thought to himself.

    With a roll of his eyes, Sima Yi laughed and said boldly: "With these words from Taoist Master Zuo, I feel relieved. If things can come true, and one day in the future, if I can unify the world, I will make Taoism the state religion and worship Taoism."  Being a national teacher for a long time is a reward."

    Sima Yi simply patted his chest and made a big promise.

    Zuo Ci was overjoyed. He never expected that Sima Yi would be so generous. Not only would he accept Taoism as the national religion, but he would also accept Zuo Ci as the national teacher.

    If this is true, the Taoist sect will become the largest sect in the world, and Zuo Ci will become a Taoist ancestor comparable to Lao and Zhuang.

    Overjoyed, Zuo Ci immediately thanked Sima Yi again and again, and the two sides reached an agreement before resigning.

    Sima Yi personally sent Zuo Ci out of the palace, watching Zuo Ci float out with a cold smile in his eyes.

    "Yan Thief, Yan Thief, it's not that easy for you to overthrow me, Da Jin. I'm going to set your backyard on fire this time, and see if you don't run away with your tail between your legs, haha~~"

    ¡­¡­

    South of Pingcheng, Yuanping.

    In the large tent of the imperial camp, Yan Liang sat high up, listening to the reports from all the soldiers and horses.

    Wen Chou's vanguard army in the north has already moved to the south of Pingcheng. They can only wait for the arrival of food and grass to launch an attack on Pingcheng.

    Although Sima Yi only had 10,000 troops in Pingcheng, Pingcheng was a strong city in Yanbei. Even if Yan Liang had an absolute military advantage, he would not take it lightly.

    Because Yan Liang¡¯s goal is no longer just to destroy Jin, he has set his sights on the grasslands outside the Great Wall. After destroying Jin, he plans to take advantage of the victory to send troops to the Great Wall, wipe out the Xianbei tribes, and solve the foreign troubles in the northern border of the empire in one fell swoop.

    According to the intelligence sent back from the grassland, Kebi Neng was attacked by the western Xianbei led by Tuoba Xianbei and the eastern Xianbei led by Murong Xianbei. It had suffered repeated defeats and was on the verge of annihilation.

    Once Kebi Neng is destroyed, the central Xianbei will be divided between the Tuoba tribe and the Murong tribe. By then, the strength of the two tribes will increase dramatically. If these two tribes can form an alliance and attack and defend each other, it will indeed be a force that cannot be underestimated.  .

    For Yan Liang, Sima Yi is no longer a problem, the Xianbei people outside the Great Wall are his new enemies.

    "How is Pingcheng doing? Is there any unusual information?" Yan Liang asked.

      Sima Yi is not the kind of person who puts all his efforts into action. He knew that it was impossible to defend Pingcheng, so he gathered his troops in Pingcheng instead of escaping far outside the fortress. This decisive defensive posture made Yan Liang feel a little suspicious.

    "There is nothing suspicious in Pingcheng. Sima Yi did gather all his troops in Pingcheng and drilled day and night, preparing for a decisive battle."

    After a pause, Xu Shu said again: "If you are really suspicious, you are just reporting carefully. There have been many Taoist priests in Pingcheng recently, coming in and out of the Jin army camp. I don't know what the purpose is."

    Taoist priest?

    Yan Liang frowned slightly, thinking to himself that Taoism mainly developed in the Lianghe area, and there was not even a Taoist temple in Bingzhou. Why would Taoist priests appear in Yanmen at such a time, and even enter and leave Sima Yi's military camp?

    Something is fishy!

    With the Yellow Turban Rebellion on Taiping Road as a warning, Yan Liang could not help but be wary of Taoist priests. As for the previous use of Taoist priests to prepare gunpowder, there was no other way. Who made science in this era fall behind? Only Taoist priests could reluctantly do "chemistry"  Home".

    "Zifeng, after the defeat of Zhangjiao, who has been regarded as the leader among the Taoists?" Yan Liang became curious and suddenly asked Zhou Cang, who was born in the Yellow Turban.
