Obtain the divine power at the beginning

Chengdu.

Governor's Office.

Lu Yuan's desk was piled with official documents from various prefectures, counties and cities requesting funds for disaster relief.

When Fu Xing heard Qiu Yang's report that there was a landslide at Jiange Pass, which washed away the military rations and buried the weapons under the sliding mountain, he was so angry that his face turned purple. He immediately took the opportunity to ask the court to remove Qiu Yang and station his trusted confidants to garrison Jiange Pass, thus seizing the military power from the Donglin people.

At this time, the local refugees took a very steep path that almost no one took, and walked towards Qingcheng Mountain with difficulty.

The leader of Qingcheng Sect, Ma Da, led his beloved disciple Ji Huoqing, his beloved daughter Ma Yingchun and others to distribute coarse grains and bran to the refugees.

Li Zhiyong, the deputy leader of the Mahayana sect, appeared in person to preach Buddhism and talk about the Tao.

Zhao Tieshan of the Wuhu Gate closely monitored the movements on and below the mountain.

~~

In front of Pujue Temple on the mountainside, Wang Haoxian, vice-chairman of Mahayana Buddhism, was explaining the benefits of the teachings: "The Mother of No Birth is an ancient Buddha in heaven who is neither born nor destroyed. She wants to save her children in the mortal world and return them to heaven to avoid disasters. This heaven is the homeland of emptiness. This homeland of emptiness is our Mahayana Buddhism. Anyone who joins the Mahayana Buddhism is exempt from paying taxes and grain. The religion will allocate silver to donate grain and rice, and the fields and mineral resources will be shared."

Is Mahayana Buddhism so good?

Since we are homeless, why not join the Mahayana sect?

As a result, homeless refugees flocked to the temple, signed their names, and requested to join the Mahayana sect.

The heavy rains that lasted for more than two months helped Mahayana Buddhism to rise again.

~~

Lei Shenghai then raised his arms and shouted: "The Ming court is corrupt, eunuchs are in power, in order to build a shrine, they slaughtered the people, forcibly demolished houses, and the people are living in misery. In the rainstorm, officials robbed and killed the people. There are thieves outside and tyranny inside. The Ming court is exhausted. Huang Tian is in power, why don't you rise up to overthrow the tyranny, fight against the Jin soldiers, and recover the country?"

Zou Tieying, Beigong Bo, Xue Tielong, Xue Feihua and others echoed and shouted: "Overthrow the Ming Dynasty, fight against the Jin soldiers, return our land to us, and revitalize the nine provinces. Only Mahayana Buddhism is respected! Save all living beings and take the Mother of No Birth as the Buddha!"

A volunteer army was immediately formed and trained in secret.

The evening breeze blew, gently and softly, bringing with it a wisp of dust from the gray sky.

~~

Kyoto, Stone House.

Shi Tianyu was taking a walk under the locust tree in the courtyard.

Suddenly, Pan Dong's high-pitched voice was heard outside the mansion gate: "Mr. Liu, the Tongpan of Fucheng, has arrived."

Shi Tianyu's heart trembled and he turned around suddenly.

"Ah!" The door opened.

Liu Cong came in with his wife Liu Beifeng, concubine Han Yufeng, and maids Liu Yan and Liu Fen.

Han Yufeng walked into the mansion holding her chubby son Liu Hongde in her arms. When she saw Shi Tianyu, she was extremely excited.

I haven't seen Shi Tianyu for more than a year.

Seeing Shi Tianyu again at this time, Han Yufeng's eyes were filled with tears and her heart was surging. She really hoped that Shi Tianyu could hug her son Liu Hongde.

Liu Cong's movements were humorous and his tone was funny. He trotted in, stretched out his hands and tightly grasped Shi Tianyu's arms, and said in a trembling voice: "Master Shi, I miss you so much."

"Hahahaha!"

Pan Dong, Peng Jinshi and others laughed out loud.

~~

Han Yufeng handed her son Liu Hongde to Liu Yan, and then walked over slowly, her face covered with dust and tears. She put her hands on her slender waist, bent her knees slightly, saluted to Shi Tianyu, and said with a sob: "My humble concubine greets Master Shi."

Shi Tianyu hurriedly separated Liu Cong, supported Han Yufeng, nodded, and did not dare to say anything. He was very self-disciplined. He then turned aside and invited everyone to the hall to have tea. He also instructed Pan Dong and Peng Jinshi to book five rooms at the nearby Mingjing Inn, saying that Shi, Mr. An and his wife, and his two brothers would move to the inn tonight, and you should go to Aunt Li to get the money.

Then, Shi Tianyu went to the study, took out the house deed, took out a box of gold ingots and a box of silver ingots, returned to the hall, and presented the house, gold ingots and large silver ingots to Liu Cong and Han Yufeng.

~~

Shi Tianyu directly handed the house deed to Han Yufeng.

He also handed two boxes of gold ingots and large silver bars to Liu Cong's wife Liu Beifeng and her maid Liu Fen.

Neither Liu Beifeng nor Liu Fen could lift it, so they could only put it on the ground.

Seeing how good Shi Tianyu was to Han Yufeng, Liu Beifeng could only feel envy, jealousy and hatred, lamenting that as Liu Cong's original wife, she had to rely on a concubine.

Oh! I am so lucky! Who can blame me for being so pretty and young?

~~

Shi Tianyu also told Liu Cong that behind this house was Princess Changxiang’s residence.

The security environment here is excellent and no one dares to disturb.

At the slightest movement, the guards at Princess Changxiang's residence would come over to take a look.

Naturally, these words were also directed at Pan Dong and Peng Jinshi.

Shi Tianyu has always been suspicious of Pan Dong and Peng Jinshi.

He just uses these two people in public.

Saying this at this time was equivalent to telling Pan Dong and Peng Jinshi clearly not to think about taking Liu Cong's family as hostages. Princess Changxiang Wei Xueyan's family had plenty of guards who would come at any time to capture the evil thieves.

Pan Dong and Peng Jinshi were really shocked. They both knew who Princess Changxiang was.

The most important thing is that Princess Changxiang Wei Xueyan also serves as the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and has countless highly skilled warriors under her command.

~~

Han Yufeng took the house deed and tears of emotion streamed down her face.

With this house deed in hand, it proves that Shi Tianyu has never forgotten her.

This proves that Shi Tianyu has always been thinking about Han Yufeng and his son Liu Hongde.

As soon as I arrived in Kyoto, I was given a house in the city center, which was amazing.

How many officials have been busy in Kyoto all their lives and still cannot afford a house like this!

Moreover, geographical locations like this are scarce resources.

After the house was sold, there was no such good location anymore.

This is the most prime location among the most prime locations.

There is also a box of gold ingots and a box of large silver bars, so you can go shopping however you want in the future.

Don’t we women just love shopping?

~~

Pan Dong and Peng Jinshi really couldn't understand why Shi Tianyu was so nice to Liu Cong's family!

I racked my brains but couldn't figure it out.

A house located in the center of Kyoto, plus a box of gold ingots and a box of large silver ingots were given to Liu Cong.

Oh my god! What kind of ministry, what kind of minister? I'm afraid that's all I can do in my life? I'm afraid I can never reach such a level in my life, right?

~~

Afterwards, Han Yufeng took her son in her arms and told two maids to help her clean the room.

Mrs. Liu had no choice but to clean the room herself.

When Mr. and Mrs. An Yinqi saw that they had guests coming, they had to buy groceries and cook, and had no time to help Mrs. Liu.

Shi Tianyu, Liu Cong, Pan Dong, Peng Jinshi and others were chatting and drinking tea in the hall.

~~

Liu Cong was more or less a wise man who appeared foolish. As soon as he arrived in Kyoto, he got a lot of benefits and became very excited.

Then he said to Shi Tianyu: "Don't worry, Lord Shi, even if I retire and return home, I will still be with you. However, I came here in a hurry, and I was really afraid that I would be harmed by the dynasty, so I didn't bring anything with me. I'm sorry."

After saying that, he turned sideways and pointed at the two wooden boxes that Pan Dong had brought for him, and laughed at himself.

·

A few months ago, when in Fucheng, Liu Cong had followed Shi Tianyu's advice and entrusted all his valuables to the Sun and Moon Escort Agency to be transported to Kyoto and deposited in the main store of the Yujing Chain Bank.

The escort fee was three thousand taels of silver, and it was paid by Shi Tianyu on behalf of Liu Cong.

Of course, it is also to support Gongsun Ren, Yang Feng and others from the Sun and Moon Escort Agency.

Therefore, the two boxes that Liu Cong brought were clothes for changing on the road.

~~

Shi Tianyu said with deep emotion: "I am afraid of causing trouble for Lord Liu. As for other things, I have everything. My father is a wealthy businessman in Jiangnan. He is not short of money or other food and drink. Lord Liu, you don't have to be polite."

Liu Cong smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Excellency is overthinking. I dare not say that I am a wise man who appears foolish, but I am a juren, and I have served as a county magistrate for ten years. I can understand the meaning of the words in the imperial edict. Lord Shi is a lucky person, and nothing will happen to him. It's just that Wang Chao and Fang Shizhong, a few treacherous people, can't understand it. They have not been to school and can't read many words."

I feel quite satisfied and a little proud.

"Hahahaha!"

Everyone laughed.

Pan Dong and Peng Jinshi both thought: It seems that Liu Cong, the confused official, is not really confused, he is just confused for a rare occasion. In fact, he is much smarter than Wang Chao and Fang Shizhong. It seems that it makes sense for Shi Tianyu to be so good to Liu Cong.
