Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Jing Zhimo smiled and sent the abbot out of the official hall, and the two said goodbye with a smile.  With a twist of his face, the abbot's face instantly turned livid, he clenched his back molars and turned to leave. Jing Zhimo also looked unhesitant and returned to his room with a puff of sleeves.

    The conversation just now was not pleasant. The abbot hoped that Jing Zhimo would support him in tomorrow's meeting. When discussing the duties of the Supervisor of Wuji Yuan, Dong Zhikun, the deacon of the room, took over as the Supervisor of Wuji Yuan, but Jing Zhimo was evasive and clever in his words.  I avoided it and never got a clear commitment.

    In the Ming Dynasty Taoist sect, although the abbot is the master of the Taoist temple and nominally the one who decides the affairs, whether he can truly make the decision is not that simple.  The Taoist sect clearly stipulates that the person in charge of the affairs of Taoist temples, Taoist palaces, and Taoist temples at all levels in the Shifang Jungle is the supervisor. The abbot only plays a role when major events are unresolved. In the words of later generations, "cast the key  One ticket".

    In other words, the abbot does not care about specific affairs in daily life. Only when the entire Taoist temple has serious disagreements about a major matter, will he have the opportunity to take action and make the final decision.  When encountering a more powerful prison, or one that has strong control over the "Three Capitals" and the "Eight Deacons", the abbot will be reduced to a mere decoration. He only needs to enjoy the nobility every day, and enjoy leisurely walks in the forest and springs.  Can.

    If you don't want to be a display and want to fully enjoy the taste of power, you must look at your personal abilities. Either you have a strong background and strong backing, or you have seniority and strong abilities. In short, you must be able to "convince the crowd". Anyone who is slightly worse will be  I had no choice but to stay in the abbot's room obediently and not think too much about power and point fingers at others, otherwise it would be easy to get a bloody head.  The former is like the old abbot of Wujiyuan, and the latter is like Abbot Du of Xizhenwu Palace.

    Although Abbot Du is not very old, when he entered the Taoist monastery, it happened to coincide with the change of generation between "Teng" and "Zhi" in the Taoist sect. Therefore, he is only a few years older than Jing Zhimo, but he is respected as his uncle in terms of seniority.  The vast majority of Taoists who are abbots do not want to become a decoration, and the same is true for Du Tenghui.  He was able to be transferred to the Xizhenwu Palace as the abbot, so of course he had a great background and a strong backing. However, unfortunately, he had only been in the Xizhenwu Palace for more than half a month, and it was not clear how strong he was in terms of ability, at least in terms of qualifications.

    In addition to being unable to convince the public due to his qualifications, Jing Zhimo was also quite annoyed with Abbot Du's "ignorance of the rules" and was a bit disdainful.  It has never been easy to be the abbot of Xizhenwu Palace. In the nine years since Jing Zhimo entered Xizhenwu Palace, Xizhenwu Palace has had seven abbots, and Du Teng will be the eighth. If this abbot maintains this style of behavior  , Jing Zhimo believes that the ninth abbot will arrive soon.

    Everything is just because there is an extremely powerful supervisor in Xizhenwu Palace!

    Zhang Yunzhao, the Supervisor of Xizhenwu Palace, is fifty-eight years old. He is the only Taoist of the "Yun" generation in the Xizhenwu Palace. He is the uncle of the "Teng" Taoists who hold the real power in the palace.  The master-uncle of the Taoist generation.

    Thirty years ago, the Taoist sect fought a battle with the Buddhist demon monk at Yashanguan in Kuizhou. The battle was shocking.  The Taoist Zhengyi Sect and the Quanzhen Sect joined forces and dispatched a Great Heavenly Master, a Great True Master, three True Masters, and more than a dozen great refiners to set up an ambush, and captured the Tubo State Master Lu Xiseng, a monk who had opened the Sixth Consciousness.  The living Buddha in this state was dusted off, and he accomplished a great feat that the Taoist sect has never had in a hundred years.

    At that time, the Taoist priests of Ziyang Academy in Xinning County, Kuizhou worked hard and were rewarded by the Taoist Lushan General Viewpoint for being promoted. Zhang Yunzhao was one of them. His brothers are now also in high positions and control almost the entire Sichuan Province.  Jungle - Li Yunhe, the supervisor of Xuanyuan Temple in Sichuan Province, is Zhang Yunzhao's senior brother.

    With such a powerful supervisor, it is not unusual for Jing Zhimo to be polite to the newly arrived Abbot Du.

    But the abbot is the abbot after all. Jing Zhimo sent Abbot Du away with a soft hand, but he was still a little uneasy. To be on the safe side, he decided to see Zhang Yunzhao.

    After hearing Jing Zhimo's report, Zhang Yunzhao sneered in his heart and said: "Master Nephew Du is from Hubei and was appointed by the General Office of Lushan. Although he is relatively junior, I heard he is still capable and has a bright future.  . As the abbot of the palace, it is normal to care about the appointment and dismissal of various county Taoist colleges - you guys should help me more and cultivate more talents for our Taoist sect, so as not to leave no successors.  "

    Jing Zhimo nodded and said, "The prison guard is right."

    Zhang Yunzhao said again: "The major affairs of the Taoist sect will all be decided by the 'Three Capital Discussions'. This rule cannot be abolished. Master Nephew Du is young and may not pay much attention to his actions. You and Bai Tengming and Liao Tengqiao should be more forgiving and tolerant. Don't  Get acquainted with him."

    "yes."

    After a pause, Zhang Yunzhao continued: "But young people can't sit still, which is also a good thing. I will tell the eight deacons later that they let Master Nephew Du go out more and walk around to understand the people's sentiments and get some knowledge.  ?The secular affairs of the palace and Taoist temple.  It is better to add some burdens to the young people and not to waste their time as abbot. I think this is also the original intention of Lushan General View to train young people.  "

    Abbot Du was nearly forty years old, but he was still called "young man" by Zhang Yunzhao, which made Jing Zhimo couldn't help but smile to himself, thinking that Abbot Du was in trouble now, and said: "Don't worry, we will meet you soon."  Do your best to help.¡±

    At this time, Zhang Yunzhao suddenly said: "We can't put off the Wujiyuan matter any longer. We will convene the 'Three Capitals Meeting' tomorrow to finalize the matter. Well, inform the abbot and let him participate."

    Jing Zhimo was stunned for a moment: "Prison Court"

    Zhang Yunzhao smiled and said, "Go ahead and do as I say."

    Early the next morning, while Du Tenghui was still sleeping, he was awakened by a knock on the door.  He was a little angry, lying on the bed without getting up, and asked: "Who knocked on the door?"

    "Is the abbot up? The supervisor has sent his nephew here to report that today's 'Three Capitals Meeting' will be held to decide on the appointment and dismissal of the Wuji Academy. Please discuss the details with the abbot."

    Du Tenghui was puzzled and asked in surprise: "Invite me to participate in the 'Three Capital Discussions'?"

    "That's right," said the man outside the door, "Abbott, please go quickly. The prison guards and Sandu are waiting in the main hall of the magistrate."

    Du Teng would not know what was going on, but that didn't stop him from getting up quickly. After a brief wash, he changed into the abbot's robe and hurried away with the Taoist priest outside the door.

    When they entered the main hall of the former magistrate's office, they saw Zhang Yunzhao, the governor of the prison, Liao Tengqiao, the cook, Bai Tengming, the governor, and Bai Tengming, the governor, as well as the two deacons, inspector and Zhike.

    Du Tenghui himself was quite surprised to be able to participate in the discussions in the three capitals, but this phenomenon at least shows that his status in the Xizhenwu Palace is undergoing subtle changes.  No matter what the thoughts of Supervisor Zhang Yunzhao and Sandu are, being able to participate in the deliberations of Sandu is the best opportunity to intervene in the power of Xizhenwu Palace.

    Du Tenghui was filled with joy and sat down at the main seat in the middle. He looked at the people in the hall and said with a smile: "I'm late, please continue."

    Zhang Yunzhao smiled and said: "The abbot is appointed by the General View of Mount Lu, and he comes from Hubei Province. His vision and talents are not comparable to those of us in the wild and remote places. Since the battle of Baima Mountain, our colleagues in Sichuan Province have worked together to resist the enemy of Xixia.  , Xizhenwu Palace is located in a strategic location, and it shoulders heavy responsibilities. The responsibilities are not small. Now that it is better, the abbot has foreseen the secret, and we are greatly relieved. "

    Du Tenghui said humbly: "What the hell, Supervisor Zhang is overly praised. I need more help from you all."

    All the Taoist priests in the hall said in unison: "Thank you, abbot!"

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡ªZhang Yunzhao said: "Today we are discussing the appointment and dismissal of various officials in Guyang County Wujiyuan, Zhong Xunzhao, please tell me."

    When the affairs of the three capitals of the Daomen are being discussed, the three deacons, namely, the inspector of the dormitory, the guest in the living room, and the high official in the sutra hall, can attend as non-voting delegates, but they have no decision-making power.  Although you are not allowed to speak when making decisions, being able to participate in the discussions is itself a system for the Taoist sect to train young Taoist priests to take over high positions. Therefore, it is said that the Supervisory Academy is selected from three deacons.  At the same time, other deacons from the relevant deacon rooms may also be present. However, Dian Zao, who was in charge of appointment and dismissal documents in Xi Zhenwu Palace, died in the battle at Baima Mountain and has not yet been able to be elected. Therefore, the patrol is temporarily responsible for Dian Zao's house.

    The person who was the new inspector and the temporary person responsible for building the house was none other than Zhong Tenghong, the former Supervisor of Wujiyuan. Zhong Xunzhao had already held a list in his hand and said immediately: "Today, we decided to  Each task was reviewed at the same time, and the three duties of patrolling, high-functioning, and dian-zhu of Wuji Yuan were reviewed. The records of all the functions were reviewed in the Dianzhuofang in the Palace, and it was found that Jiang Zhibiao, a high-functioning member of the Sutra Hall of Wuji Yuan, had profound attainments in scriptures, and practiced rituals of fasting and rituals.  He is proficient and able to teach Taoist boys well. He is proposed to be appointed as the senior official of Xizhenwu Palace. Song Zhiyuan, the inspector of Wujiyuan's dormitory, has been in charge of the dormitory for more than ten years. He is thorough in the affairs of the courtyard and has high moral standards. He has always been respected by everyone in Wujiyuan. He is selected to be appointed as the supervisor of Wujiyuan.  ¡­¡±

    After a pause, Zhong Xunzhao continued to speak loudly: "After the Wujiyuan's 'Sandu Meeting', it was planned to build a house for the ceremony. Zhang Zhihuan entered the dormitory as an inspection officer. Liu Zhiguang, the Sutra Hall, took over the merits of the Sutra Hall. Chen Zhizhong, the Sutra Hall, entered the Dian Building  The house is a classic building, above."

    After reading, Zhong Xunzhao looked at the abbot, the prison and the three capitals. This list was approved by the old abbot of Wujiyuan. Zhong Tenghong naturally knew the details, but he had no decision-making power and could only wait for a few big shots in the palace.  Resolution.

    Zhang Yunzhao nodded and said, "Let's discuss this."

    Thanks to brother yangzhigang for the reward.
