Chapter 276 Daxia's Imperial Master

Lin Jin heard the quarrel inside the study before she even reached it. She raised her hand to stop those who wanted to report it. One of them hesitated for a moment, but stopped talking after being pulled by the person next to him.

"The severe drought in Taiyuan Prefecture is a punishment from heaven because the Prime Minister has acted on his own will."

"Prime Minister, are you going to abandon the people of the world for a woman?"

Lin Jin carefully distinguished the voice of the speaker and confirmed that she had never heard it before. She wondered if it was the national teacher she had never met before. Then she heard the person inside laugh. It was Song Shiqiu's voice.

"Taiyuan Prefecture suffers from drought every year. This year, the drought just lasted a little longer. Are you planning to blame me for the drought?"

"This is simply ridiculous. If the Imperial Master has forgotten who conquered this world, you should go back and take a good look at the history books of Daxia. I have worked for Daxia for more than ten years and have seen dozens of natural disasters, if not hundreds. I'm afraid you can't scare me."

"If the world believes that the drought was caused by my refusal to marry the Saint, then I don't need to be the Prime Minister. I just don't know if the Imperial Master can take this position if I resign."

Lin Jin just sat on the steps and listened to the two people playing chess inside.

"You have really been bewitched by a woman! You are unwilling to marry the Uighur Saint for the sake of the people of the world? You are crazy, you are absolutely crazy. If you were still the prime minister of Daxia, how could you be so confused."

"Master, it's as if the drought in Taiyuan Prefecture will end if I marry her. If I marry her and Taiyuan Prefecture still suffers from drought, can I kill you evil Taoists who are misleading people with your lies?"

"You are now the Imperial Master of Da Xia. I will not refuse you for your sake, but if you still insist on not changing your ways, then you should pack up and leave the Imperial Master's Mansion tomorrow."

"I want to see whether Daxia is willing to kill me for a national master, or let me directly demolish the national master's mansion!"

"You, you..." The Imperial Master pointed at Song Shiqiu, his goatee trembling along with his body, "Heaven is going to destroy our Great Xia!"

Song Shiqiu threw the brush in his hand to the ground: "If you can influence me with just a few words, then it will be the end of Heaven! My wife is trying her best to save Taiyuan Prefecture from the disaster, and you, as the national teacher, have done nothing, and even intend to confuse the people with lies. In my opinion, you have rebelled and are trying to shake the foundation of the country!"

"If you really worship these as gods and have the leisure to do so, why don't you pray for rain for Taiyuan Prefecture? If you are willing to open an altar and try, even if the prayer for rain fails, this image will still look upon you with respect. But if you continue to talk nonsense like this, you can see if this image can kill you directly!"

"Since the founding of Daxia, which natural disaster has not been overcome by the human race itself? When have the so-called gods ever really taken care of the people of the world? It is better to ask me, Your Majesty, for help than to ask the gods for help! Over the years, when has it not been the local officials running around to deal with the disasters? When has the court not provided disaster relief? Can all these achievements be attributed to God?"

Lin Jin was horrified as he listened outside, and kept looking back worried that Song Shiqiu would not suddenly draw his sword and kill him.

Song Shiqiu really wanted to draw his sword and kill the demon, but after all, the other party had not done anything wrong, so he would not do it.

"If the national teacher is not worthy of the position, it is better for him to step down and let someone more capable do so. There are many Taoists and monks in this world who know how to help the people overcome difficulties better than the national teacher!"

"Worldly interests have long blinded the heart of the national teacher."

Seeing that the noise inside had almost stopped, Lin Jin went to knock on the door and said, "Sir, is it convenient for me to come in?"

Song Shiqiu paused, and without waiting for her to push the door, he walked over to open it: "Why are you here? I didn't hear their announcement."

"If they informed me, I wouldn't be able to hear you quarreling with others." Lin Jin looked at him with a smile, "This is the first time I see you blushing like this."

After Lin Jin finished speaking, he looked at another person in the study room. He looked like a Taoist master. "Is this the Imperial Master?"

She deliberately asked Song Shiqiu: "Do I need to salute?"

She didn't want to salute.

"No need." Song Shiqiu put his arm around her shoulders, "You won't be back until tomorrow."

"I came back early. Don't worry about this for now. I have something to ask the Imperial Master." Lin Jin smiled soothingly and gave him a reassuring look. "The Imperial Master has no basis for what he said. The Saint Girl has not arrived in the capital for ten days, but the drought in Taiyuan Prefecture must have lasted for more than ten days. The time doesn't match. If the drought can only be solved if you marry a woman with a matching fate, why didn't the Imperial Master say it earlier?"

"Because the Imperial Master couldn't figure it out? That's not right. The Imperial Master can now figure out future events, so why couldn't he do it before?"

"I'm not completely jealous, but the Uighur Saint Yang Muer is my good friend, and she never agreed to this marriage. God is kind, how could he force two unwilling people to get married and become a couple of enemies? If God is not kind, why should I follow his will?"

The Imperial Master didn't expect that Lin Jin could speak so clearly, but he just snorted coldly: "What do you, a woman, know? The Prime Minister and the Saint are both gods descended from the sky, how can they be matched with ordinary people?"

This was the second time Lin Jin heard this concept, the last time being from Xiang Lian.

She frowned at first, then chuckled: "So that's how it is."

The Imperial Master thought she had figured it out, and his expression eased a little.

Lin Jin believed that it might indeed be a divine star, but she absolutely did not believe the absurd statement that Song Shiqiu and Yang Mulu had to get married to save the people. Compared to this national teacher, she believed in Xianglian more. If this was true, Xianglian would definitely not sit idly by.

Xianglian is much more reliable than this national teacher.

"Master Imperial Master, why don't you listen to my master's advice and resign from your post and return to the mountains to practice. Not only do you not have the skills, you also don't have the character." Lin Jin looked at him with a smile, "What you said is really funny."

"If you are a god who has descended to the earth, then your mission is to save all living beings. How can you take these little things to heart? After a hundred years, this life will be nothing but a passing cloud, and you will forget it in the blink of an eye."

"Your Excellency will not vent your anger on the people because of something like this, so your words are completely self-contradictory."

They were originally colleagues, and Xia Fan got married for no apparent reason, and then continued to be colleagues after returning home. That would be really awkward, okay?

What Xianglian was talking about was clearly the destiny of the divine star, but how did it suddenly become the divine star descending to earth? Lin Jin didn't know who was more accurate, but based on the current situation, she felt that Xianglian was more reliable.

"You are simply stubborn and you are blaspheming God!" The national teacher was so angry that he almost fainted. He didn't expect that both of them had such a temper.

Lin Jin looked at the Imperial Master in surprise: "I blasphemed the gods? Heaven and earth can bear witness. Although I do not believe in gods, I have awe for them. It is the Imperial Master who has been forcing my master in the name of gods, pretending to be the will of gods. Who is blaspheming the gods?"

"Don't say any more words to him. Come on, show him off." Song Shiqiu felt that he had said almost enough, so he ordered him to leave.

Lin Jin looked at him with a sullen smile: "You two must have had a lot of arguments during this period."

Song Shiqiu rubbed his brows. These days, the court was either arguing about whether to go to war or the drought in Taiyuan Prefecture. Originally, Daxia had enough food and grass to fight a war, but Taiyuan Prefecture happened to be hit by a severe drought.

Otherwise, don't worry.
