Chapter 299
Whether it is the old Taoism or the new Buddhism, there are a large number of believers in the Tang Dynasty.From the princes and nobles to the common people, they either worship Taoism or believe in Buddhism.

If this conflict between Buddhism and Taoism is not handled properly, or if it is slightly refuted, it is likely to cause major problems and lead to more serious consequences.

It was precisely because they understood the seriousness of this matter that Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng kept silent.They don't seek meritorious deeds but seek no faults. They would rather let Li Shimin scold them for their inaction than take the risk.

"Oh! What's Mi Qing's opinion, play it quickly!"

Hearing that Mi Xiaoxia had an idea, Li Shimin's face showed joy, and he couldn't help but lean forward a little while sitting behind the dragon case.

Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng stood below with a sneer in their hearts.If you don't pay attention to this question, you will make a big mistake. They are waiting to see Mi Xiaoxia make a fool of himself.

"Returning to Your Majesty, you have said before that the affairs of the other side are handled by the people outside the side, and it is inconvenient for the court to intervene..."

"Hmph, the imperial court doesn't want to intervene, but if they don't intervene, they will overthrow the sky!"

As soon as Mi Xiaoxia spoke, Li Chunfeng couldn't help but interrupted with a sneer.Li Shimin above also frowned slightly, what kind of idea is this?He didn't want to intervene, but could he not intervene now?

"Master Li, don't worry, listen to what I have to say."

Mi Xiaoxia glanced at Li Chunfeng, then turned to Li Shimin, and continued.

"The reason why they fight is because there is no unified leader. Your Majesty can set up the post of 'Holy Master' to manage people outside the world!"

"what……"

Hearing what Mi Xiaoxia said, Li Shimin's eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes, just choose a leader for these monks and Taoist priests and let them solve it by themselves.

"Master Mi's strategy is really good, so may I ask, who will this holy master choose?"

At this moment Yuan Tiangang spoke and looked at Mi Xiaoxia with a sneer.

Li Shimin didn't speak, and waited for Mi Xiaoxia's reply.This so-called holy teacher must be selected from the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism.But no matter who you choose, you will definitely offend the other.

Both of them are very powerful now, it is not good to offend either of them, and it is easy to cause turmoil.

"Hehe, this is not easy."

Mi Xiaoxia smiled, in fact, the so-called holy master does not necessarily have to be one, you can choose several or even dozens or hundreds of them!
Not only Buddhism and Taoism, but other religions such as Changchun Sect also choose a few, set up a parliamentary system, and everyone votes on anything with a show of hands.In this way, what started as a hands-on fight naturally turned into a quarrel at the conference table.

This method has been used a lot in later generations, but in the feudal society of the imperial system, when one person monopolizes the power, it is rarely used, and it is generally unexpected.

However, Mi Xiaoxia's suggestion to Li Shimin is not this, he has a more interesting method.

"Your Majesty, in fact, it doesn't matter who you choose, what matters is how many years you will be in office."

Mi Xiaoxia smiled and continued.

"Buddhism and Taoism, anyone can be elected, but it is stated that each holy master can only serve for four years. After four years, the next one will be re-elected according to the performance of the two! Holy master"

"Hey... Mi Qing's trick!"

Hearing this, Li Shimin suddenly became enlightened, and praised the case of Pailong.

Even Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng couldn't help but widen their eyes, this strategy is good.Then looking at Mi Xiaoxia, he couldn't help but secretly sighed, this person was full of tricks beyond expectation, so we should avoid fighting with him in the future, so as not to suffer.

As Mi Xiaoxia said, no matter who you choose, it is not permanent.Therefore, those who are elected should pay attention to their image in order to be re-elected in the next term.And those who are not selected don't need to be discouraged, there will still be opportunities after four years, and they must perform well.

In order to be elected in the next term, Buddhism and Taoism will try their best to curry favor with the party responsible for the canonization, that is, the imperial court, that is, the Emperor of Tang!
In this way, not only can the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism be calmed down at this time, but also they can be restrained by each other, and the court can weigh it, so that religion can be in the hands!
Mi Xiaoxia's idea not only helped Li Shimin solve his current problem, but also helped him solve a big problem, which is the interference of religion on imperial power!

"Good! Great!"

The more I think about it, the more I think this idea is good, and I can't help but value Mi Xiaoxia Li Shimin more and more.Even if Xin Dao didn't have Wannian Pill, he still had to win over such talents.

In fact, the idea that Mi Xiaoxia came up with seems to be unique at this time.But for later generations, it is nothing new for multiple factions to take turns ruling.

"Mi Qing, who do you think is the best candidate for the first batch of saints?"

After a while, Li Shimin asked suddenly.As soon as he said this, he actually gave Mi Xiaoxia the canonization right!
Whether it is Taoism or Buddhism, they are definitely determined to win this first batch of holy masters.At this time, Li Shimin handed over the decision-making power to Mi Xiaoxia, and the benefits are self-evident.It can be said that this is Li Shimin's reward for Mi Xiaoxia's change of direction.

"Your Majesty, it doesn't matter who can be conferred, what matters is when."

Mi Xiaoxia smiled and said.

"Your Majesty can issue the decree first. As for who can be conferred, we can discuss it in a few months."

"...Haha! Alright, according to Mi Qing's words, come and draw up an order!"

Li Shimin laughed twice, and understood what Mi Xiaoxia meant.

Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng looked at each other, and they understood.Can't help curling his lips again, this Mi Xiaoxia is too insidious.In the future, instead of fighting against him less, just don't provoke him, because you can't fight him at all.

It's like doing business, and it's like a man and a woman falling in love. Whichever party holds the advantage.Mi Xiaoxia has to wait for a few months, this can't make both Buddhism and Taoism anxious to death, and he can't desperately give him benefits!

Following this, Li Shimin issued an order, Mi Xiaoxia and others also resigned and left.

Both Buddhism and Taoism are powerful, and before the imperial decree arrived, they had already obtained news from the palace.After understanding the cause and effect, he was stunned and then cursed. This strategy is too damn bad!

Relying on being a person from outside Fang, with the backing of immortals and Buddhas, not only can he preach at will, but to a certain extent, he is not under the control of the court.But as soon as this 'holy teacher' was established, they had no choice but to curry favor with the imperial court.If you can't take this seat yourself, and your opponent is sitting, how can you still have a good life?

And the most detrimental thing is that this position is changed every four years. In this way, he has to keep currying favor with the imperial court!
Being able to get the news in advance, of course, I also found out that this is Mi Xiaoxia, the new great master of the country, who made a plan, and the emperor also gave Mi Xiaoxia the right to decide on the candidate for the first holy master.

For Mi Xiaoxia, both Buddhism and Taoism hated their teeth so much, but they couldn't offend him at this moment, and had to beg him, what's the matter.

There is no way, the situation is stronger than people.On the second day after receiving the imperial decree, both Buddhism and Taoism sent representatives to secretly contact Mi Xiaoxia.

But who knows, the gatekeeper told them that the Great Master is not here, and they have gone on a wandering trip, at least ten days, at most one or two years before returning!

"Uncle Yunyou!"

Even monks and Taoists who practice self-cultivation can't help cursing when they hear the news.

They came to the door with a lot of belongings and various treasures, but Mi Xiaoxia avoided seeing them.The meaning of this is obvious, he has a big appetite, this is to give time for Buddhism and Taoism to prepare gifts!

Being sinister and cunning, yet so greedy, it really makes people tremble with hatred.But there is no way, I can only go back and report.

"……good."

Of course Mi Xiaoxia didn't go to Yunyou, how could he have that kind of free time.But in fact, he is indeed not in Datang now, or more precisely, he is not in the mortal world.

He has come to the small world of the wilderness, looking at the zombies all over the mountains and plains, he can't help but nod repeatedly.

At this time, in the Great Wilderness Small World, the number of zombies has reached one million.The total number of zombies in Qingyuan Small World also exceeded Mi Xiaoxia's expectations.

The portal connecting the two small worlds is still there, but no zombies have come through.

But until now, Mi Xiaoxia has not received the merit reward for the complete transfer of zombies.From this point of view, there are still zombies lingering in Qingyuan Small World.

"just wait……"

Mi Xiaoxia is not in a hurry, the portal continues to stand there.

But at this time, the Qingyang faction may have already lost their eyesight.But they couldn't get into Heishan Corpse City, so it was useless to worry.

In addition, after these two years, the level of zombies has generally improved, and the overall strength has grown a lot.The two corpses, the Emperor of Corpse and the Empress of Corpse, have each increased their cultivation by one level, reaching the early stage of LV17 Zifu.

The Great Wilderness Small World is full of aura, and the army of zombies will continue to increase.Mi Xiaoxia was secretly happy, this hidden army will become stronger and stronger!
"not bad."

In addition, Mi Xiaoxia asked the zombie army to search for the fragments of the sky-replenishing stone. After two years, they found two pieces in total.

Last time, I used two fragments of the sky-replenishing stone to exchange for the avatar power.It has been a few years since the opening of the Great Wilderness Small World last time, and the fragments of the sky-replenishing stone outside have become more and more precious. At this time, these two pieces should also be able to exchange for a magical power in the second scroll of the heavenly book.

"So be it."

Release the redemption task and order the zombie army to continue searching for the sky-replenishing stone.

Immediately afterwards, Mi Xiaoxia moved directly to a group of mountains.With the improvement of cultivation base, the control over Shi Ding is getting higher and higher, and Mi Xiaoxia can already teleport freely in the small world of the wilderness.

"It's here..."

In front of him was a valley filled with clouds and mists. Looking at this, Mi Xiaoxia groaned for a while.

In the small world of the wilderness, apart from the high concentration of aura and the fragments of buried sky-replenishing stones, the most valuable ones are the treasures everywhere!

At the beginning, Empress Nuwa refined stones here to mend the sky, leaving various traces. These traces contain great principles, and the experience and enlightenment will have unexpected benefits.

Through the induction of the stone tripod, there are a total of 36 treasures in the Great Wilderness Small World!

These treasures cover various fields such as alchemy, weapon refining, qi training, and god training. Among them, there are eleven places suitable for Mi Xiaoxia, but with Mi Xiaoxia's current level, there are only three places that can be comprehended!

"It's really weird..."

At this time, the valley in front of Mi Xiaoxia is also a treasure, but it is not one of the three places that he can comprehend.

This treasure land is different from the other 35 treasure lands, but Mi Xiaoxia can't tell exactly what is different.

Anyway, he came over to take a look first, and after some investigation, he felt that it was not easy.

The valley is full of mist, which can block all perception and even spiritual consciousness. As long as people enter it, they will soon get lost.But after an hour, even if you stand still, you will be teleported out.

No matter how you look at it, this looks like a ban, but who can set a ban in the Great Wilderness Small World?
"Go in and see!"

It was useless to think about it, Mi Xiaoxia stepped into the valley.
