Chapter 1544: The Evil Spirit Dissipates, the Spiritual Energy Revives
Inside the Forbidden City.
The little emperor, escorted by a group of eunuchs and maids, walked through the lush and beautiful imperial garden and arrived at the City God's Hall.
The City God's Hall is located in the middle of the Imperial Garden. It was originally called the Qin'an Hall and was also a place of worship. Now that the little emperor has accepted Jiang Hao as his teacher, he naturally wants to build a separate palace for the teacher, so he moved the other statues out and placed them in other places. Only the statue of the City God remains.
After letting the eunuchs and maids go out, the little emperor came to the futon, took out three sticks of sandalwood from the incense box next to him, lit them and inserted them into the incense burner. He bowed respectfully and said, "Please teach me, teacher."
The statue flashed, and a figure flew down from above and landed in front of the little emperor. The little emperor looked at Jiang Hao with a smile, "Teacher, you are here. I wish I could have this magical power like you."
"Supernatural power is a technique. Teacher hopes that you pursue the Tao. If you are high in the Tao, you can become a god." Jiang Hao said.
"How can I improve my Taoism?"
Jiang Hao smiled and said, "If you can do good to all people, you will become a god. Everyone has his own responsibilities when he is born. You have to shoulder your responsibility as an emperor."
The two of them came to the study room next to them. The furnishings here were very strange, such as a fire bed, a futon, a low table, a set of tea-making utensils, and dried fruit refreshments, but there was no book. It didn't look like a study at all.
Jiang Hao will not teach the little emperor any Taoist scriptures or Buddhist classics. He only teaches one thing, and that is chatting.
Through chatting, impart knowledge to the little emperor. If you don’t understand something, go back and read the book by yourself. Only when you want to know, can you have the motivation to learn, rather than cramming education.
"What was discussed in today's court meeting? Is there anything you don't understand?" Jiang Hao asked.
"Today we discussed the retirement of several old ministers, the promotion of a bachelor, some things about the health center, the participation of ministers, and the floods in Hubei that require help from the court, etc."
"Teacher, Taizu gave the officials the right to "tell things based on what they heard". They can participate in the performance as long as they hear what they have heard and do not need evidence. They can freely impeach any important official without any punishment, even if the participation is found out later. It’s not true.”
"Originally Taizu wanted the officials to express their opinions with loyalty and a public heart, but I found that many of those officials were taking advantage of this, pretending to be public and promoting private interests to cause trouble, and 'hearing and reporting' became a sword for party disputes and attacks on dissidents. The students don’t know whether these words can still be used, and whether they are beneficial or harmful to the court.”
At this time, the water boiled. Jiang Hao pointed to the kettle and said, "Make tea!"
The little emperor hurriedly made tea.
Jiang Hao was using the emperor as a Taoist boy.
Watching the emperor skillfully making tea, Jiang Hao said slowly: "I heard people say that Yan Guan has several labels: low grade, high energy, loves to walk alone, not afraid of death, values fame and religion, scolds the cabinet, respects the emperor, and eliminates treacherous ministers "
The little emperor nodded, "Indeed."
Jiang Hao shook his head and said, "That's not entirely true. Don't underestimate the speech officials. They have great power, and that is the right to speak."
"In any dynasty, at any time and in any place, having the right to speak is an extremely important thing and must not be underestimated."
"I won't talk about the usefulness of speech officials. You know these, but I will tell you about the disadvantages. Although they are not high in rank, their potential is not small. From the chief minister of the cabinet to the state and county officials, they are all subject to speech. They have the power of admonishment and participation in impeachment, and they are the targets of many people's solicitations. "
"Parties are united against dissenters and attack political opponents. Officials and officials have become pawns and pawns in the game between the court bosses. It is extremely difficult to find the mastermind behind the scenes, but they can lead the elders by the nose. A memorial can make the elders behave. Resting at home awaiting investigation, the entire court came to a standstill."
"Some people regard the right of the enemy as wrong and the wrong of the enemy as right, making it difficult for decision-makers to distinguish the truth from the false, making political information distorted and malfunctioning, and the phenomenon of obstruction at the top and bottom will harm the rule of the imperial court."
"Party fighting is responsible for half of the disaster."
"When speaking with officials, is everyone motivated by the public interest? I think most people are not, but everyone has selfish motives. There are many factions in the court, which is a huge network of relationships. Only a few are truly motivated by the public interest."
"So in my opinion, the power of 'reporting on rumors' does more harm than good." After Jiang Hao finished speaking, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
"Then what should we do? Get rid of the public speaking officials, or take back the right to report rumors?" the little emperor asked.
"Abolition will definitely not work, and there must be no shortage of supervisory agencies, but their rights must also be restricted. Unrestricted rights will inevitably become a disaster, including for the emperor. The system of officials has its role and can play a role in supervision, but it cannot be allowed to He damages the functioning of the whole body, so it is necessary to take back some rights.”
"Then what should be done?"
"Haha, think about this question for yourself. I will not give you the answer as a teacher. I will only tell you that no system is perfect, and times have changed. It may have been applicable a few years ago or decades ago, but it may not be applicable now. "
"You are still too young now, and you are not in charge of the government. Their spearheads will not be aimed at you for a while. You can take your time and think about it. You must learn how to manipulate those ministers and make them become your pawns instead of You become their decoration, and the knowledge in this is huge."
The little emperor fell into deep thought.
Jiang Hao stopped talking and started to meditate slowly while sitting cross-legged. The emperor was still young, and one question a day was enough for him to think about, and it was easier for him to think deeply about it.
After an unknown amount of time, the little emperor woke up from his thoughts and saw his master meditating with his eyes closed. He smiled. He now liked being with his teacher more and more. The teacher never forced him to do any homework, but just guided him in this way of chatting.
The teacher was very knowledgeable, and there was nothing he didn't understand.
That's right,
The teacher was a god.
His father also taught him in this way in the last few days.
Suddenly thinking of the old emperor, the little emperor missed his father a little and asked in a low voice: "Master, do you know how my father is doing? Has he ascended to the paradise?"
Jiang Hao opened his eyes and shook his head, "No, your father has reincarnated, and I personally sent him into the reincarnation."
"Reincarnation, where did he reincarnate?" asked the little emperor.
"Haha, what are you doing? Do you want to find the person who turned him around? I don't know. Where he will be reincarnated is determined by heaven. Maybe he will be a rich family or a commoner."
The little emperor was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "Even for my father, I have to govern this country well. Whether it is a rich family or a commoner, I can let my father have a good life."
Jiang Hao nodded with relief, "It's good that you think so."
After finishing the class, Jiang Hao flew back to the City God Temple. When he flew over the capital on his sword, he suddenly felt that the evil spirit in the capital seemed to be less than before, and his heart moved.
Flying high on the sword, he flew quickly to the Yanshan Mountains, surveying the ground veins while flying.
The dragon veins of China all start from the Kunlun Mountains. The capital is located at the intersection of the Taihang Mountains and the Yanshan Mountains. The dragon veins start from the clouds, along the Qilian Mountains and the Helan Mountains, from west to east to the Yanshan Mountains, and the Taihang Mountains rush from north to south, gathering in the capital area.
The dragon vein of the capital is in Yanshan, and the spiritual vein is Yuquan on Yuquan Mountain. Jiang Hao flew along Yanshan and found that the golden dragon had the momentum to rise, changing from the previous decadence, and the spiritual energy of Yuquan Mountain was much richer than before.
Jiang Hao thought about it, released the city god seal, called the city gods of various places with the city god position, and ordered to investigate whether the spiritual energy of the local veins has recovered and whether the evil spirit is weakening.
A day later, news came back from various places.
The dragon veins and spiritual veins in various places are gradually recovering, and the evil spirits between heaven and earth are dispersed by the spiritual energy.
Hearing this news, Jiang Hao smiled in his heart.
It seems that his plan has really worked. Now it is just a matter of time. Of course, we must not take it lightly during this period and let others destroy the hard-won situation.
Jiang Hao once again issued a strict order, and the city gods of various places sorted out the local situation and made great efforts to find out those demons, ghosts, and monsters. The good ones can be used, and the bad ones should be killed, and they will never be soft-hearted.
At this time, Jiang Hao also understood that the most important thing to eliminate the evil spirits of heaven and earth is to restore order.
Where does the evil spirit come from? It comes from the human heart. When the human heart collapses and negative emotions surge, countless resentment and evil spirits will naturally be generated. This evil spirit gathers more and more, and finally fills the whole world, and many problems will arise.
In fact, many natural disasters, such as the collapse of the sky and the crack of the earth, plague and natural disasters, are the condensation of the evil spirits and resentment of heaven and earth, and the punishment of the will of heaven and earth on humans.
Now Jiang Hao has reorganized the chaotic order. The court represents the world of the living, and the city god represents the underworld. When the order of the two worlds of yin and yang is restored, the world will naturally begin to return to normal.
Flying in the sky with a sword, looking at the vast mountains and rivers, Jiang Hao is in a very comfortable mood.
