The number one scholar of the Song Dynasty

Yang Lin got up and put on a big cloak, went downstairs, walked out of the inner courtyard, and saw a man waiting anxiously outside.

Yang Lin stepped forward to take a look, frowned and said, "Hua Rong, why did you look like this, why are you so eager to see me?"

Huarong galloped all the way, the two horses changed trains, and finally arrived at Bianliang.His tired lips were dry and white, and he was haggard.

Half a month had passed since Yang Tong and the others killed people on the river, and Hua Rong didn't know what the current situation was, so he could only tell what he knew.

Yang Lin was taken aback after hearing this, and said, "Liangzhe Road has been tossed like this by these two thieves. Are there no local officials in charge?"

After finishing speaking, Yang Lin suddenly searched for these two people who were recommended by Cai Jing and Liang Shicheng.

Cai and Liang, one is the chief prime minister who is serious and honest, and the other is known as the hidden prime minister of the Song Dynasty. Even if ordinary officials want to sue, they have no way out.

I'm afraid the edict of dismissal will come down before the emperor's eyes on the complaint

Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, Hua Rong said anxiously: "Tiju, what should we do about this matter?"

Yang Lin woke up from his contemplation, and said: "Killed a few thieves, what's the matter, Song Jiang should have settled down by now. Although Zhu Xi is domineering on Liangzhe Road, he is not a fool and dare not follow me." Right."

The killing of officials was so trivial in Tiju's mouth, Hua Rong was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "Since that's the case, I'm relieved, don't worry too much about this journey, I want to go to sleep. "

Yang Lin was amused by his straightforward temperament. Huarong in Water Margin, I don’t know why the writing is so inconsistent with the prototype, probably because Shi Naian prefers this character.

Yang Lin waved his hand and said, "In this outer courtyard, arrange a place for Hua Rong to live, and take him to have a good meal tomorrow."

The general of Longevity Camp nodded yes, and took Hua Rong out to sleep, leaving Yang Lin completely sleepless.

The situation in the south of the Yangtze River is so dire, and it was a good thing for me to discover the hidden dangers of Manichaeism in advance, but I didn't expect these two traitors to become a disaster.

Under heavy pressure, whether Fang La's uprising will break out in advance depends on whether Fang La is in charge. Whether this uprising that shakes the foundation of the Northern Song Dynasty can be stopped.

The south of the Yangtze River is rich and prosperous, and Liangzhe Road is especially prosperous. If it is destroyed by an internal strife, Yang Lin doesn't want to see it.

In any case, the current evil enemy is in the north, not the rotten and dying Khitan, but a group of ruthless orcs drinking blood in the white mountains and black waters.

These people have evolved a human body, torso and face, but they don't have the heart that a human should have. Thinking of the absurd monarchs and ministers in the palace today, Yang Lin suddenly felt uncomfortable.

I thought that Jingkang would still be there for a while, but now I realized that my previous thinking was completely wrong. The freezing three feet did not happen in a day, and the disaster of Jingkang was not caused by that year.

This is the inevitable result of the corruption of the government in the late Northern Song Dynasty when Wen Tian and Wu played.

If you want to avoid this disaster, you can't wait until the Jingkang period, and it's even too late now.

A gust of cold wind blew into the living room and poured into the body from the neck, Yang Lin shivered, tightened the skirt of his clothes, and said to himself: "I need to hurry up and start to seize power, some means have to be used. "

Chapter 100 Converting to Taoism

As expected by Yang Lin, after Song Jiang sent someone to negotiate with Zhu Shi, the killing of Jiang Jiang was settled.

Although Zhu Xi was arrogant, he was not stupid. He knew that his backers were Cai Jing and the emperor.

But Yang Lin's relationship with these two people is ten times better than his own, and he was born as a champion, and his family's influence is also greater than his own. No matter from which side, it is not worth the loss to fight him for a dozen rogues.

Yang Lin didn't take this matter to heart at all. He spent a month in Bianliang and made another event that shocked the world

In the Changle Building, the three veteran Taoists talked freely, and Yang Lin was already an old acquaintance of them, so there was no restraint in gathering and drinking with each other.

Yang Lin said: "Master Daoist, although I am reading the ancient scrolls of Confucianism, I am yearning for Taoism. I don't know if I can join the Taoism."

Hong Jiuling was the head teacher of the Zhengyi Sect. At this time, the Quanzhen Sect was not yet prominent, and Taoism in the world took Zhengyi as the orthodoxy.

Hearing this sentence, even Hong Jiuling was taken aback. He read the number one scholar in his studies, and now he wants to enter Taoism?This is the Song Dynasty in the prosperous age of civil servants

One can imagine the sensation and effect caused by a number one scholar entering the Taoist temple. Ordinary people see Wenquxing entering the Taoist temple, but it is not the gathering of followers.

Taoist priests of the Zhengyi sect generally practice at home, can drink alcohol, do not observe the precept against meat, and can also marry wives and have children.

"Young Master Yang has such a heart for Taoism. It is really a blessing for me. Poor Dao is willing to accept disciples on behalf of my master. From now on, Young Master Yang will be the honorary head teacher of our Zhengyi Sect."

Yang Lin didn't expect the old Taoist priest to be so good at Taoism, and the huge amount of sesame oil and money he invested was not in vain. He said with a smile: "How dare Yang Lin, as long as he accepts my heart of Taoism, I will be grateful."

The other two old Taoists, with white temples and hair, stood up with smiles and said, "See Shishu."

The Yanqing Temple outside Bianliang City is known as the first temple in the Central Plains.

Today all the Taoist priests in the main hall gathered to watch Yang Lin's entrance ceremony. For this entrance ceremony, Yang Lin showed great sincerity and donated 20 guan.

Several Taoist priests from the Tianshi Mansion gathered together to teach and record the ritual ceremony. There were mainly three masters: the master of teaching, the master of recommending, and the master of supervising respectively lectured on the scriptures and precepts to Yang Lin, and held a grand ceremony of passing on the ritual.

In the end, the disciples are given the title certificate, scriptures, dharma (seal of heavenly master), dharma sword, order flag, order, wat board (chamber slips), ghost-killing peach stick, canopy ruler, Taoist clothes, Taoist cap, etc. .

Wearing a Taoist robe and a kerchief on his head, Yang Lin received the respect of all the Taoist priests on the high altar.Hong Jiuling smiled and said: "My family teacher has been an immortal for many years, and I have accepted apprentices on behalf of my teacher. From then on, you are our Zhengyi sect, with the Taoist name Chiyangzi."

"Thank you, brother."

Youdao is not in the age, Yang Lin's seniority is scary when he came up, who made him a Wenqu star, and donated 20 guan.Even if Yang Lin is rich, 20 guan is by no means a small amount. You can buy thousands of handsome maids.

In the eyes of the priests at the top, Yang Lin is not only a Wenqu star, but also the reincarnation of the God of Wealth

The little Taoist priests and nuns at the bottom bowed and bowed to pay respects to this new master-uncle.

The news that the new top scholar entered Taoism quickly spread in Bianliang, causing Shilin to stamp his feet and beat his chest again, shouting shame.

Cai Jing shook his head slightly after hearing this, and said with a smile: "Wen Yuan is too ridiculous."

After returning to the mansion, the eyes of the servants also became evasive, both finding it interesting and wanting to laugh.

Yang Lin was wearing a Taoist robe and was walking towards the inner courtyard. He happened to bump into Su Ningxiang and Su Zhuanglian. The two girls were just in the midst of being favored, so they didn't have so many scruples, so they covered their mouths and started laughing.

Yang Lin took one hand and couldn't tell which was the elder sister and which was the younger sister, so he slapped each of them on the buttocks and said, "Bold, how dare you laugh at me, Great Immortal Chiyang, why don't you kneel down and beg for mercy."

Su Zhuanglian broke free, pinched her waist and said with a smile: "Shangxian, please forgive me, little girl dare not offend again."

Yang Lin squinted and said: "I see that you are all coquettish, so I want to take you under the crotch as two boys, one named Pinyu boy and the other named Nong Xiao boy."

Under Li Yunniang's training, the two had long understood the meaning of these strange words, blushed and spat together, and fled away.

Yang Lin laughed loudly, and soon came to the backyard, where Li Yunniang was directing the servants to prepare some Taoist things.

Yang Lin approached and asked, "How is it?"

"Dalang, everything is ready, you really want it"

Yang Lin waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry about it, just do as I tell you, I know it well."

The soldiers and horses of the Long Live Battalion in the courtyard took all these things out and transported them to Gen Yue.

In the winter of the fifth year of Chongning, before the end of the year, the whole Bianliang was covered in snow. Yang Lin invited Emperor Zhao Ji to enjoy the snow in Genyue.
