Deng Mu suddenly jumped out to stand up for his own injustice, but Lang Rushan was not happy, but felt completely disappointed, lamenting that God was unfair and made him miss the opportunity to shine his sect again.

There are many Taoist sects, but the three holy places are Longhu Mountain, Maoshan and Gezao Mountain, also located in Jiangxi. The one who lives in Longhu Mountain is Tianshidao, the one who lives on Maoshan is Shangqing Sect, the Lingbao Sect of Gezao Mountain, and later the Quanzhen Sect, which advanced in the late Song Dynasty. For a long time, in the struggle within Taoism, the three factions were competitors. From the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Tang Dynasty, the Shangqing Sect and the Lingbao Sect took turns to serve as the banker, which almost made Zhang Tianshi and the others breathless.

But starting from the Song Dynasty, the situation gradually developed in a direction that was conducive to the Tianshidao. But after the rise of Mongolia, Qiu Chuji, who was already 73 years old in the Quanzhen Sect, judged the situation and refused the recruitment of Song and Jin countries. He led 18 disciples to embark on a journey of more than two years at the invitation of Genghis Khan. Qiu Chuji and his party went through hardships and finally arrived at Genghis Khan’s military camp under the snowy mountain in the Western Regions.

This long journey made Qiu Chuji a well-known figure at that time. Genghis Khan was also moved by Qiu Chuji. After talking to him many times, he obeyed his words and even gave him the title of Mr. Qiu, and called him Shenxian. When Qiu Chuji was about to return to the east, Genghis Khan gave Quanzhendao two favorable policies: one, ordered all taxes from Quanzhendao; the other, ordered Qiu Chuji to take charge of monks all over the world. This incident marked that, at least in name, Quanzhen Buddhism was already the leader of Taoism.

Since Mr. Qiu Chuji made a good start, Quanzhen Dao has been praised by the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty for a long time. However, it expanded too quickly and often burst quickly. In the early days of the Yuan Dynasty, Quanzhen Dao repaired the palace and recruited disciples. It is said that the sea in the east, the Han and Huai in the south, and the vast desert in the northwest. Even if the ten huts gather, there must be a place for incense.

The Taoist priests of Quanzhen Taoism expanded their power and built new Taoist temples everywhere, and later developed to the point of seizing the temple. Is it tolerable, but who is intolerable? The monks reflected the situation to the emperor through officials and nobles. So the Taoist priests' nightmare came: At this time, the Emperor Mengge of the Yuan Dynasty had already converted to Buddhism and ordered the monks and Taoists to have a big debate.

As a result, all Quanzhen Sects were defeated. This time, their defeat was not only forced to shave their hair and become monks, but also a heavy loss to the entire Taoism. Because this caused the Yuan Dynasty royal family to lose trust in Taoism for a while, Kublai Khan ordered that in addition to the Tao Te Ching, all the Taoist scriptures in the Taoist Psychology were burned, and Quanzhen Sect naturally lost its status as Taoist dynasty!

However, the Quanzhen Sect was declining. Before the Shangqing Sect could be happy for a while, the Mongols crossed the Yangtze River and the south of the Yangtze River fell. Tianshidao was because Kublai Khan sent people to Longhu Mountain to "please ask for a talisman" and calculated that "the world should be together in the next twenty years." There are also rumors that Tianshidao made great contributions in the war to destroy the Song Dynasty. Since he had made contributions, he would be rewarded, so that Tianshidao master led the Taoism in Jiangnan. In this way, the east completely overwhelmed the west wind, and the Shangqing Sect and the Gezao Sect were simply led by the Zhang family to three mountains, marking that Tianshidao achieved an overwhelming final victory in the internal struggle of Taoism!

However, the Tianshi Dao only calculated correctly in the next twenty years, but did not calculate that the Song Dynasty made a comeback in another ten years. As early as a few years ago, all titles were cancelled by the Song Dynasty because the Tianshi Dao was attached to the enemy and regarded as a traitor. At that time, people only regarded it as a joke. The Song Dynasty had destroyed its country, and it was just a gesture for face, like a dream, but who dared to ignore this saintly decree?

The fall of various sects gave Lang Rushan hope. The Shangqing sect has always been the mainstream of the Song Dynasty, and has always been in charge of the Royal Academy, presided over relevant sacrificial ceremonies, and maintained close contact with court officials. He knew that betrayal in Confucianism, it was simply a rebellion! How could Confucian scholars tolerate the Tianshidao rely on the emperors of the outside tribe?

Lang Rushan had many interactions with the ministers of the court, and even deeply felt that although those Confucian scholars liked to be very arrogant and claimed that they were loyal and righteous people who were so powerful that they remained in eternal life. In fact, Confucians were not as firm as they said, but they just changed their clothes a few beats slower. During the fall of Jiangnan, although they also accepted the imperial edict of the Yuan court and were in charge of Taoist affairs in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, they were relatively innocent compared to the other two sects, so no one would say that no one would be even darker.

After clarifying the situation, Lang Rushan realized that he could be suppressed by other sects and restore the former glory of the Shangqing sect. He would also become a milestone figure in Taoism and be recorded in history books forever. But he soon discovered that things were not good. Emperors of the Song Dynasty have always regarded Taoism as the national religion. After returning to Lin'an, they did not go to the Taoist temple to pray for blessings or worship the gods. They did not summon themselves to Dongxiao Palace, the highest leadership body of Taoism, and did not even issue any orders about Taoism. He wrote several letters to request a visit, but they were all over the sea and there was no news.

The royal alienation and the indifference of the court made Lang Rushan feel a little unable to sit still. He knew that without the support of the emperor, he would even decline Taoism without the revitalization of the family. But at that time he still placed his hope on the empress dowager, thinking that the young emperor was finally young and did not know the importance of it. However, after the empress dowager returned to the capital, things still did not change. Not only did he ignore them, but he went to Xiangguo Temple to worship Buddha.

There was no way out when he was exhausted, and there was another village. Just when Lang Rushan was in a desperate situation, it was suddenly reported that the young emperor was reviewing retired soldiers at Gushan School. He realized that the opportunity had come. Yanxiang Garden was the West Taiyi Palace, and he also served as the position of giving tips. He had a chance to get close. However, when he went to "inspection", he was blocked on the lake. Not only did he not even go up to the island, but he also did not recognize him as the palace envoy.

However, Lang Rushan didn't want to miss the opportunity. There were rumors in the court that when the little emperor was young, he met the Taoist immortal in his dream and became enlightened from then on. Thinking of this origin, he simply came to stay in West Lake to wait for the rabbit and had an unexpected encounter for the little emperor. At that time, he showed his skills to scare the little emperor, so that he could be devoted to the Tao and get the result he wanted. But he didn't expect that the result of the encounter would be like this...

Although Zhao Bing does not believe in ghosts and gods, he knows the influence of religion on society. In some Western countries, the religious power is extremely strong. If his ministers are unhappy, they can even abolish the kings, let alone some countries simply talk about the **** system, and their influence on the ruling class can be imagined. However, ancient Chinese religions could never reach this level. Compared with their wealthy relatives in foreign countries, they often seem a little shabby and dare not be so arrogant.

In ancient Chinese society, Zhao Bing thought that religion was more like an appendage to the state. If the country was a towering tree, then religion could at best bet on it as a vine plant parasitized on it. Once the dynasty changes, they had to keep betting on it, eating delicious food and drinking spicy food, and if they bet on the wrong one, they would be forbidden and destroyed. Although it was a forced to survive, history was so cruel that you couldn't help but take it.

Therefore, religion in ancient China was more like a tool for the ruling class. Whether it was a monk or a Taoist priest, you could do whatever you wanted on weekdays. The reason why you were allowed to worship Buddha and gods was to let you teach the people to be more obedient and easy to manage. However, there is a red boundary between the secular world and religion that cannot be touched casually. Even if you are spoiled to heaven at this moment, you must touch it.

Because this boundary exists under the throne of the emperor, in the Nine-level Imperial Palace, no matter which religion is touched, the interests involved are often the beginning of their unlucky. You must know that all the world is the king's land; the shores of the earth are the king's ministers. If you learn to be disobedient first, don't blame me for being rude. That is when monks touched the destruction of Buddhas, Taoists touched the destruction of Taoism, there was no place to be able to be compatible at all!

Emperor Huizong favored Taoism to an unparalleled extent, but the result was that Bianjing was captured by the Jurchens. He was wearing a Taoist robe and was escorted to the Five Kingdoms City in a desolate manner. If he wanted to settle the old accounts, he would probably be reasonable even if he had to demolish all the Taoist temples in the world. However, the education of gods since Zhenzong was too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Although he was not as fanatical as before, he still treated him well. When he encountered any trouble, he would ask the gods and fairies carefully looked for the reasons from themselves, which would make the gods in the sky unhappy.

Zhao Bing also knew that he could not put the responsibility for the destruction of the country to religious reasons, but he would not blindly let him become over. Today he embarrassed Lang Rushan. One reason was that he wanted to use "evil art" to confuse himself. This principle was very simple. He was either a traitor or a thief when he had nothing to do. The other was to show his distrust of him and warn them not to try to get involved in politics again, nor to try to become overwhelmed like before, so that he could give up his fantasy and retreat, so as not to feel uncomfortable.

"Oh, it turns out it's Zhenren Lang, I'm so respectful!" Zhao Bing saw that Lang Rushan had already felt the indifference of the royal family, but he jumped out to be upset and troublesome. He bowed his hand to apologize, and then looked at Deng Mupi with a smile and pretended not to know, "Who is this gentleman? How can you know that he has no intention of cheating people on money!"

"You..." Deng Mu took the initiative to reveal Lang Rushan's identity, just to tell the boy not to judge people by his appearance, and he talked nonsense, but the other party still expressed doubts. This was not only pointing at the bald man and scolding the monk, but also scolding himself and questioning his character, and he couldn't help but get angry.

"Haha, I have nothing to say. You are clearly an accomplice. You cheated on us and then share the spoils, right?" Zhao Bing pointed at Deng Mu, who was pale and said with a smile.

"I am Deng Muxin, and I can guarantee it in my name!" Deng Mu became even more angry when he heard this. This was simply an insult to himself. He immediately stood up and said that his name was named.

"Deng Muxin?! Is it very famous? Have you heard of it?" Zhao Bing frowned after hearing this, and turned around to ask the others on the boat. Wang De shook his head very cooperatively, and the others followed naturally.

"Hmph!" Deng Mu was very shocked when he saw this, and snorted coldly and turned his back.

"Brother, this is indeed Du Mu, a famous scholar in Jiangnan, known as an outsider of the Three Sects!" Lang Rushan shook his head helplessly and could only correct his name himself.

"Haha, I still say it's not a pair of liars. I still know outsiders of the Three Sects. It is said that the madman who does not believe in the Three Sects can hang out with you, a Taoist priest? Wouldn't that be really crazy!" Zhao Bing laughed at him.

"If you don't believe in the Three Destiny, wouldn't you be unable to interact with them? It's so outrageous!" Deng Mu was hit hard after hearing this. It turned out that he had such an impression in the world. He turned around and said angrily.

"I dare to be stubborn, so my young master will definitely hand you over to the punishment of the officials when he hears it. I don't want to defeat You Xing today, so I leave quickly!" Zhao Bing waved his hand and said as if he drove away the two dogs.

"You... you are too bullying!" Although Deng Mu was a commoner, he had never been so despised as a famous scholar. He said with a blank face, "Lang Zhenren mentioned the Dongxiao Palace and was in charge of a provincial road. He had both the salary of the court and the worship of believers, so why should he cheat others of money?"

"The court's salary? Which court's salary do you receive? Who is the order to take charge of the church members in a province!" He was anxious and said without any restraint. Zhao Bing immediately caught him again and asked sternly.

"Of course it is the salary of the Song Dynasty. I received the order to give some Dongxiao Palace!" Lang Rushan reacted very quickly and immediately said politely. But he secretly scolded Deng Mu in his heart, "Don't hold him to death if he wants to die. If he pursued the matter, let alone unify Taoism, he would have to pay his life.

"So what if I get the Mongol Yuan? Taoism respects the Three Qings, but it is not the emperor of any family!" Deng Mu said very disdainfully.

"Very good, the answer is very good!" Zhao Bing sneered. However, he also believed in his heart that this kid was Deng Mu. His words were in line with what he said about the great harmony of the world, but anarchism violated his own interests. Everyone is so good, but fortunately his thoughts have no market.

"Brother, Mr. Wenxing felt the cold when he was in the rain. He was so confused that he would talk nonsense!" Lang Rushan was so angry that his teeth itched, suspected that he was deliberately harming him, so he quickly pulled him to explain.

"Young Master asked, why is it so noisy outside?" Wang De said again when he saw the little emperor making gesture.

"Please, please..." Lang Rufeng was shocked when he heard the message in the cabin. He hurriedly took out a few golden leaves from his sleeve and stuffed them into Zhao Bing's hand, and said softly.

"Report to the supervisor, nothing happened. There was a madman on the boat who was naked, shameless and nonsense. The young man just scolded him!" Zhao Bing put Jin Yezi into his sleeve and turned around and reported.

"What are you talking nonsense? Who is naked? Don't insult others innocence!" Deng Mu said angrily after hearing this.
