After talking about Zhenshitang, Zhao Ran added: "For a long time, because the selection committee was not in the capital, it was unable to enter the joint meeting. However, from a geographical point of view, Maoshan is not far from the capital and is actually within the scope of the greater capital. . I would suggest inviting people from the selection committee to join the joint meeting to discuss the general affairs of Jiangnan Province."
Sima Yunqing and Wang Jingyun looked at each other, and Wang Jingyun said: "Senior Brother Sima and I have discussed that Sima Zhifu will be in charge of the Civilized City Creation Evaluation Committee."
Zhao Ran thought for a while and said, "A little bit immature."
But in terms of age, Sima Zhifu is forty-eight years old, eight years older than Zhao Ran. However, Zhao Ran's comment about him being "immature" did not seem to be an exaggeration at all, but felt that it was very pertinent.
Zhao Ran has been practicing in Shifang Jungle for more than twenty years, and has been in the sight of Zhenshi Hall for more than ten years. He took the lead in fighting a war of peace and rebellion, and then presided over the general affairs of Jiangnan for four years. The entire joint meeting was created from scratch. He pulled it up with one hand.
During the four years when he was actually in charge of the general affairs of Jiangnan, he even led a major war and won a decisive victory, bringing the entire East China Sea under the rule of Taoism. With such qualifications, he can criticize almost anyone.
On the other hand, Sima became rich, he was old, but what had he done in the past forty years? Almost nothing was accomplished! He even plays practice ball just for fun and never participates in formal competitions. He is not even as good as Zhang Tengming.
Not to mention that he cannot be compared with Zhao Ran, compared with other representatives of the joint meeting, he can also be described as "immature".
Lu Xixing has been working in Leixiao Pavilion all year round, and has been in charge of Chaotian Palace for three years. Now he is also the commander of the inspection fleet, leading a large fleet to fight at sea;
Tang Yaozu has been the deacon of Sanqing Pavilion for many years, and has been in charge of Xianling Palace for three years now;
Wei Chaozong has served in the Beitang of Dongji Pavilion for many years and has investigated a series of major cases including the Xiu'an case. Now he has been in charge of Lingji Palace for more than three years;
Ms. Jiu has been in charge of the general affairs of Longhu Mountain since she was a child. She has also served as the abbot of Jiujiang Prefecture and Jiangxi Province. She is very comfortable in being in charge of the Daulu Si Yamen;
Peng Yunyi presided over the practice ball competition, and later presided over Yuanfu Palace, and even served as the abbot of Xuantan Palace;
Even Lu Yuanyuan has the experience of being the abbot of Songfan Tianhe Palace. Now he serves as a priest in the Lecture Hall. Relying on his deep family background, he is well-known in the Lecture Hall.
Which of the above can be compared to Sima Zhifu?
Even in terms of cultivation level, he is still ranked at the bottom, just a mere golden elixir, only between Peng Yunyi and Lu Yuanyuan.
Regarding Sima Zhifu's immatureness, several high-level Taoists in Maoshan obviously had some considerations. Sima Yunqing said: "My grandson is indeed a little immature, but we have also discussed that when he encounters problems, he should consult Yangshou for advice. At the joint meeting When convening, I will also serve as a junior and listen to Zhiran and everyone¡¯s opinions.¡±
Zhao Ran looked at Pan Yangshou, Pan Yangshou nodded slightly, and Zhao Ran nodded: "That's good, with Master Pan taking care of you, I guess you can learn a lot when you get rich."
Zhao Ran agreed, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, so they served food and wine, saying that they invited Zhao Ran and Huang Bingyue to taste the wedding wine. In the meantime, Sima Zhifu got the news and came in with a wine glass to toast. He had been reprimanded by Sima Yunqing in advance and did not dare to hold it in front of Zhao Ran like before. He bowed his head honestly and regarded himself as a younger brother in the future.
Zhao Ran encouraged: "Senior Brother Sima came from Maoshan. With the influence of the elders day and night, his intelligence is not a problem. I only hope that Senior Brother will humbly learn from his fellow Taoists, strengthen his cultivation of Taoism, and be able to grow into Maoshan's successor in the future." people."
Sima Zhifu drank the wine and said: "Yes, thank you very much for Zhiran's teachings. I will definitely keep Zhifu in mind."
After coming down from Maoshan, Huang Bingyue sighed: "In the past ten years or so, the True Master Hall has been changing like a horse and a flower. It has been changed quite frequently."
Zhao Ran thought about it for a moment and found that it was indeed the case. Before the death of Master Chen in Sanqing Pavilion, Taoist records said that it usually took seven or eight years or more than ten years for a real master to be replaced. But after that, Master Chen in Sanqing Pavilion and Master Zhang Tianshi were , Baojing Pavilion Chen Tianshi, and now Xu Zhenren, and even the Sima Tianshi who followed closely, there have been five changes.
Zhao Ran also nodded and squeezed out one word: "Great era."
Lu Yuanyuan chased him down from Maoshan and said to Zhao Ran: "Zhiran, I'm going to retreat and prepare to break through the realm to attack the great mage."
Zhao Ranxi said: "This is a good thing."
Lu Yuanyuan stroked the ends of his hair and said, "Father said that I must ask you for a message of congratulations in advance."
Zhao Ran laughed and said: "Okay, then I wish Senior Sister Lu good luck in developing her spiritual consciousness and breaking through the realm!"
Lu Yuanyuan said: "Okay, I'll go into seclusion in two days. It's about the lecture hall.The task has been taken care of by the people below, but what do you think we should do about the joint meeting? "
Zhao Ran said: "With your profound knowledge of Taoism, fasting and rituals, I don't think it will take more than a month for you to retreat. It just happened that the East China Sea was victorious. There will be nothing important for a few months. The joint meeting will not be held often. You will be absent once or twice. It¡¯s not a big problem.¡±
Lu Yuanyuan said happily: "One month? Okay, then I'll lend you some good luck."
As soon as Lu Yuanyuan's matter was finished, An Miao caught up with him: "Senior Brother Zhao, could you please write a note to Junshan Technology? We would like to purchase a few Zhuge self-propelled plows."
Zhao Ran smiled and said: "Junshan Technology has made preparations and is supplying goods to Qinzhou Port. Of course, the quantity may not be that large, but since Junior Sister An Miao has spoken, I will tell them to leave two units for you. You can go Just pick up the goods at Qinzhou Port."
An Miao was overjoyed: "Thank you so much, Senior Brother Zhao."
At the end of June, Chen Shandao returned from the East China Sea, and the joint meeting organized thousands of people to go to the riverside to greet him. The behemoth Nanzhili battleship docked slowly at Yanziji Pier, escorted by six heavy-lift ships including Yingtian, Suzhou, Fuzhou, Yangzhou, Songfan, and Longan, and flanked by more Frigates and cruisers, wind speeders.
More than 70 warships filled the Yanziji Pier.
This is only one-tenth of the entire inspection fleet, but it is already jaw-dropping.
The emperor personally went to the pier to greet Chen Shandao. Hundreds of high-ranking Taoist officials and civil and military officials lined up on the Yanziji pier. Surrounding them were more wealthy gentry, wealthy businessmen, and wealthy people. The music was loud and loud.
Chen Shandao came down from the Nanzhili and clasped his fists towards the Emperor: "Your Majesty welcomes you in person. I am very frightened."
The Emperor waved, and Chen Hong, the Master of Ceremonies, came forward with a tray. The Emperor personally filled three cups and saluted Chen Shandao.
After drinking three glasses of wine, the Emperor waved again. Feng Bao, the Royal Horse Supervisor, rushed up to Chen Shandao and offered Chen Shandao a pure gold jade cigarette. The Emperor snapped his fingers and lit it for him himself.
Chen Shandao smiled and praised: "Your Majesty's cultivation is getting deeper and deeper, which is very comforting to the poor."
The emperor smiled from ear to ear and signaled to Feng Bao again. Feng Bao said loudly: "Your Majesty has a decree. Chen Tianshi will lead his army to pacify the East China Sea, promote the prestige of our Ming Dynasty, and grant the title of Chanjiao Xuanhu Suzhen. The Longqing Fund will donate ten Wan Liang, my condolences to all the soldiers in the army!"
Chen Shandao clasped his fists: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Afterwards, there was a brief prisoner presentation ceremony. Three hundred pirates who had committed serious crimes were escorted on board the ship, and the prisoners were presented at Yanziji Pier for a formality.
Originally, the cabinet wanted to hold a prisoner dedication ceremony at the Meridian Gate, but Zhao Ran dissuaded him. Zhao Ran believes that the East China Sea has been the indivisible territorial waters of the Ming Dynasty since ancient times. The conquest of the East China Sea is actually a suppression of bandits. It can be simple and meaningful, and there is no need to make it too grand. Otherwise, what will happen after the national war is won in the future?
After a lively scene, Huang Bingyue asked Chen Shandao to board a white jade golden-billed crane and fly directly to the Golden Rooster Peak Cave in Lushan Mountain.
