Datang romantic little landlord

These bastards never thought about how many people in the Tang Dynasty would starve to death because of the famine?

Using human life as a political means to attack Li Er, are the hearts of these aristocratic families all black?

Li Wangyou's anger turned to anger, but he also understood why Li Er didn't order the extermination of locusts.

He really wanted to persuade Li Er to forcefully order the extermination of locusts regardless of those powerful families, but he knew it was impossible with his knees.

Although Li Er is the Son of Heaven, he is constrained by a powerful family, so he cannot force the order at all, otherwise the court will inevitably be in turmoil, and the world will be in chaos.

Li Wangyou was just a white-collar worker in a company in his previous life. How could he understand these political struggles? Now that he has figured out the situation, he doesn't know what to do.

On the other hand, Ma Zhou suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I don't think this matter is difficult to solve."

Although Ma Zhou has no official position now, ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty, even old farmers, still call themselves ministers when they meet the emperor.

What he said made Li Er and the others raise their brows: "Let's listen."

"No, the so-called scourge is just nonsense. As long as someone with morality and virtue comes forward to dismantle this theory of scourge, and return our Great Tang to a bright future, the extermination of locusts will be a matter of course." Ma Zhouxian said.

There was a flash of light in Li Er's eyes, and he was not in a hurry to speak.

On the other hand, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others figured out the intention of Ma Zhou's plan, and they were also very happy.

"Your Majesty, this plan is feasible!"

"The theory of divine punishment is nothing but the talk of gods and ghosts. If there are people who have attained the Tao, it is a good strategy to speak out from their own experience."

Li Wangyou was very happy, isn't this the future generations invited an expert to give a lecture to break the feudal superstition?

"Prince Bin, this is a good idea. As long as the theory of divine punishment is refuted, it will be feasible to exterminate the locusts. I just don't know who will take on this important task?" Li Wangyou asked curiously.

Ma Zhou smiled and pointed to the sunny hillside outside Zhoucun: "Master, isn't the master of your Taoist temple on the hillside ready-made?"

Taoist master?Li Wangyou was taken aback for a moment before realizing who Ma Zhou was talking about.

Veteran Sun Simiao?

196 Unashamed

Tang Taoism is the state religion.

Throughout the history of the Tang Dynasty, except for the Wu Zetian period and the Xianzong Dynasty, since the founding of the Great Tang Empire, all Tang emperors have respected Taoism very much.

As early as the founding of the country, Li Yuan, Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty, respected Laozi Li Er as his ancestor, repaired Laozi temples everywhere, and went to worship in person many times.

Li Er also issued edicts many times, saying that "the journey of the great way started in ancient times" and "since now, fasting offerings will be established. As for the title, the crown of Taoist priests can be before monks and nuns." form to enhance the status of Taoism.

As for the people of the Tang Dynasty, Taoism also had a huge influence, far surpassing Buddhism.

So Wu Chengen wrote "Journey to the West", saying that Tang Seng is Li Er's younger brother, that is nonsense.The social status and influence of Buddhism in Tang Dynasty was far inferior to that of Taoism.

If it is really possible to invite a certain Taoist power to prove that the theory of divine punishment is pure nonsense, then the so-called God blames Li Er is naturally unfounded, and there is no need to mention the Edict of Guilt.

Even if the aristocratic family no longer wanted to, they could only hold their noses and admit it. At least they didn't want to tear their faces and really turn against Li Er, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

After Ma Zhou threw out this idea, Li Er, Changsun Wuji and others who had been trapped in the political struggle in the court before could not help but look at each other with excitement in their eyes.

"Ziyou, who are you master and apprentice talking about?" Changsun Wuji asked curiously, who can resolve this matter.

Li Wangyou smiled: "Old Immortal Sun Simiao, does Duke Qi know?"

After the Xuanwumen Incident, Changsun Wuji was designated as the number one hero by Li Er, and he was granted the title of Duke of Qi, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and the third division of Kaifu Yitong.

Hearing that the person recommended by Ma Zhou was Sun Simiao, Li Er and the others clapped their hands and applauded.

Old Taoist Sun Simiao, who is in his eighties, not only has superb medical skills, but also has a very prominent reputation among Taoists.

Li Er once wanted to award the old Taoist title, but was rejected by the old Taoist who was determined to achieve Taoism, which made Li Er very regretful.

In Li Er's view, the veteran Sun Simiao is a fairy like Xianmen and Guangchengzi. If he can really ask Sun Simiao to rectify his name, Tianzhu's theory will be self-defeating.

"Ziyou, can you invite the old god Sun?" Li Er asked.

Like Sun Simiao, an old Taoist with a respected status in Taoism, Li Er is not confident that he can really ask him to rectify his name.

Li Wangyou had a good time, "Uncle, Old Immortal Sun is building a Taoist temple on the hillside of my house behind the village. Please let him go out and let my little nephew take care of me. My nephew will send people into the mountain to find Old Immortal Sun tomorrow morning. "

"Ziyou, are you sure you can persuade Old Immortal Sun to help?" Li Er was a little worried.

Li Wangyou pointed to Niu Yong who was standing in the front yard, and said with a smile: "Uncle, have you seen my trilogy? He saved the life of Old Immortal Sun. The old Immortal will always give me this little face." .”

He suddenly remembered that when he saw the scene of the monk cheating on the cross street in Hu County, he couldn't help laughing, and lowered his voice carefully to say a few words to the crowd.

After Changsun Wuji and the others heard what he said, they couldn't help baring their teeth with a strange expression.Li Er also couldn't laugh or cry, and didn't know how to comment.

But Cheng Yaojin slapped Li Wangyou on the shoulder again: "Wow ha ha ha, boy, I think you can do this business well. Your Majesty, you can leave this matter to this boy, and you can't go wrong. !"

Li Wangyou managed to seal the man of Jianguo County, but in front of the old rascal, the founding father, he still had no temper at all, his shoulders were numb from being patted, and he still had a smile on his face.

Not mentioning how Li Wangyou complained about Cheng Yaojin, Li Er pondered for a while, then nodded his head silently, which seemed to agree with Li Wangyou's suggestion.

Let Li Wangyou handle the matter mentioned above to break the locust disaster. If there is any need, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji and others will cooperate.

With a countermeasure, Li Er and Changsun Wuji breathed a sigh of relief. After many days, the irritability in their hearts faded a bit.

Coupled with the delicious food and wine to add to the fun today, Li Er simply forgot about it in advance, and turned to look at Ma Zhou who was aside.

"Ziyou, your disciple has a clever mind. The problem that I have been waiting for for several days has been solved by him."

Seeing that Li Er was interested in Ma Zhou, Li Wangyou quickly introduced Ma Zhou.

Knowing that he was an orphan when he was young, his family was poor but he was eager to learn, and he was originally a teaching assistant in Bozhou, Li Er admired Ma Zhou somewhat.

"Ma Zhou, let me test you to see what you have learned from Ziyou?" Li Er smiled.

Ma Zhou was a little apprehensive, and bowed to salute: "I have not studied with the teacher for a short time, and the teacher has not yet learned a lot of knowledge."

Li Er smiled and said: "Haha, you are modest, and you also praise you very highly as a young teacher."

Ma Zhoudao: "What I say is from the bottom of my heart. The master's talent is astonishingly amazing, and it is comparable to ordinary people. I am very fortunate to have the honor to worship under the master."

"Ziyou, where did you trick this disciple into getting here? I really admire you."

"Uncle, how can you call it coaxing?" Li Wangyou said with a sneer, although he was the one who tricked Ma Zhou into Ding Zhou Village, he definitely never tricked Ma Zhou into being his disciple.

Li Er glared at him: "What? Did I say something wrong? After Ma Zhou, who would worship you as a young man as a teacher? Nonsense."

Although Li Er knew that Li Wangyou was talented, he always felt that he was still a young man, and it was absurd to accept disciples.
