On the last day of October, Du Teng, the superintendent of Tianhe Palace, came to the White Horse Courtyard in Hongyuan in person to preside over the second public recommendation in Zhao Ran's career.
When Du Teng came to Hongyuan, he did not bring as many servants as he did in the mainland. He only brought four people to inspect the party hall, as well as the party leader and Gao Gong. He knew the situation in Hongyuan relatively well and knew that there were too many people brought and it would be difficult for Baima Court to receive them.
That night, Du Teng will talk to Yuan Jianyuan, Sandu, and Eight Deacons of Baima Yuan one by one, and personally inquire about various matters that will be announced tomorrow. Ever since Zhao Ran made a delay in the Ye Xueguan meeting, the entire Sichuan Province Daomen have consciously or unconsciously started to use the "talk" system before the public recommendation to ensure that there are no mistakes in the public recommendation.
On the first day of November, the White Horse Courtyard held a public promotion ceremony. Zhao Ran was elected as the second abbot of the White Horse Courtyard with all 43 votes.
President Du Teng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Zhiran was successfully promoted to the throne. This time I feel relieved."
Zhao Ran smiled and said: "With the Du Jian Yuan escorting me, I don't have anything to worry about."
Du Tenghui shook his head: "That's not necessarily the case. Although Hongyuan is small and remote, things always happen, so you have to be careful in the future. Okay, it will be your turn to ascend the throne in a while, so go and prepare."
After the public recommendation, Zhao Ran officially became the abbot, so he went down and changed into the abbot's ceremonial robe. According to the enthronement rituals, he received the three altars and was formally enthroned.
Zhao Ran¡¯s enthronement ceremony was open to the public. In addition to the Taoist priests and Huo Gong laymen in the academy, hundreds of merchants and common people in Hongyuan City crowded in to watch after hearing that the new abbot was enthroned.
Zhao Ran made careful preparations for the ascension ceremony. He specially refined a third-level talisman "Inviting God Talisman" and prepared many consumables with spiritual power. The total value should be more than two hundred taels of silver. Baimayuan was not so wealthy, so Zhao Ran gritted his teeth and paid for it out of his own pocket.
Spending a large sum of money to prepare, of course, is to conquer the comrades of Baimayuan and frighten the people of Hongyuan. After his talisman was typed along with the Qing Ci, a golden light suddenly appeared on the Dharma throne. As Zhao Ran recited the "Tai Shang Wenchang Treasure Repentance", a phantom gradually took shape.
This phantom statue wears a green jade veil on its forehead, embraces a long-handled Ruyi, wears golden court clothes, has a three-inch beard, and has an indescribable majesty in its square face. It is Wenchang who is in charge of fame and fortune. Emperor.
I saw the phantom of the emperor opening his eyes and shouting: "Who are you?"
Zhao Ran replied: "Disciple Zhao Zhiran, today I am officially elected as the abbot of the White Horse Courtyard in Hongyuan. I respectfully receive the emperor's instructions."
The phantom of the emperor said: "Upright!" Then gradually dispersed, and the figure disappeared.
Du Teng gathered and waited for the Taoist priests to stand up, looking at the place where the emperor disappeared and marveling.
Zhao Ran received the holy teachings, walked up to the throne slowly, and sat down upright.
This is the effect of a third-level divine summoning talisman, which can summon the phantom of the great god from heaven to appear for a moment. But that's all. The emperor's rank is too high. It is impossible to invite the deity with more than two hundred taels of silver. The effect is not the same as the phantom of the earth deity invited by Zhu Meng in Wujiyuan.
The phantom that appears is one of his thousands of phantom clones. According to the Taoist sect, it is of some benefit to the fame and fortune of the worshipper.
Of course, if you can bring down the incarnation of the emperor, the benefits will be great, but with the power of this world, even if you can play a ninth-level magic talisman, you won't be able to do it.
But even so, it was enough to have a strong deterrent effect. At this moment, even Du Tenghui sat quietly and listened to Zhao Ran's explanation.
"Tao is originally nameless, and the nameless one resides at the beginning of heaven and earth. The beginning of heaven and earth is called Hunyuan. At the beginning of Hunyuan, it was formless and imageless. It was divided into two rituals and could give rise to all phenomena. Therefore, it is called Tao. At the beginning, it came from Longhan and the Three Emperors. The teachings based on it, and the five emperors' governance based on it, started from the unity, simplicity and nature, and then divided the periods of cold and summer into the order of yin and yang. The ancient saints walked in this way, without words or teachings, without caring about things, things come and return; Teach the people, and the people will look up to you. This is a simple and simple way of heaven"
Zhao Ran ascended to the throne to preach today, and the first lecture was "Su Lu Zi" in the Taoist Canon. "Su Lu Zi" is a very distinctive one among many Taoist classics. It is divided into "Lu Dao", "Lu De", "Lu Zhong", "Lu Xiao", "Lu Ren" and "Lu Yi" The following chapters take Tao as the origin, elaborate on various methods of governing the world, find and explore the principles of Tao followed in them, and highlight practical requirements such as "walking" and "walking".
In this book of Taoism, the guiding ideology and premise of Confucianism's governance is clarified, that is, Taoism is the foundation of Confucianism, Taoism is the source, Confucianism is the policy, Taoism is learning, and Confucianism is the technique. While looking for theoretical basis for Confucianism's governance, Also forThe metaphysics of ? has found a tool in the concrete and micro.
Based on the special system of Hongyuan Baimayuan, Zhao Ran believes that it is very right to preach this "Su Lu Zi". It can also be regarded as supplementing the theoretical roots of his innovative approach of "unity of Taoism and Yamen". .
Zhao Ran¡¯s daytime invitation to the gods during the enthronement ceremony of the White Horse Court spread throughout Hongyuan and even Songfan. These are things for later and will not be detailed for now. That night, Zhao Ran got the appointment document from Tianhe Palace.
After practicing for Du Tenghui, Zhao Ran returned to the abbot's house, screened away the Taoist priests from Baima Court who came to see him for instructions, told them not to disturb him, and then unfolded the ultimatum.
The appointment document was instantly absorbed by Zhao Ran, and the exercises in Chapter 4 of the "Innate Merit Sutra" appeared in his mind. This is about how to make the elixir generate spiritual consciousness after forming the elixir, so that the spiritual consciousness can be entrusted to objects, thereby forming the original soul. In terms of realm, it is a technique that breaks through from the mage realm to the great mage realm.
Zhao Ran is still a Huangguan monk, but when he was promoted to the abbot of Wujiyuan, he had already obtained the technique of forming pills. Now that he was promoted to the abbot of Baimayuan, he also obtained the technique of condensing the soul. In the next few years, , he won't be bothered by the exercises anymore. This was also the opportunity he took when he was discussing matters in Ye Xueguan.
After getting the next two steps of skills, Zhao Ran had a good sleep. When he woke up the next day, he asked Dian Zaofang to find all kinds of documents and classics that had been received and issued by Baima Court in the past three years. Read them carefully one by one.
Being in charge of a place does not mean that you immediately start gesticulating after arriving at the end of the land to realize the so-called "ambition in your heart." Before coming, of course Zhao Ran had a set of plans for the direction of his administration and the goals he hoped to achieve, but these were only directions and rough outlines. How to start with the specifics needed to be considered in light of the actual situation of the White Horse Courtyard.
If the plan is feasible, then adjust it based on actual conditions and implement it slowly. If it is not suitable, make changes and look for opportunities to try it out step by step. If there is any violation of the actual local conditions, simply overturn it and start over, or even abandon it.
And if you want to understand the actual situation, the first step is to read the documents and do your homework.
