Chapter 161: Ask for advice
After all, Mu is the future housewife of the big family. After understanding the cause and effect of the matter, he quickly calmed down.
There is still a turning point in this matter...
The Xu family, didn’t you invite the real person who spreads the Dharma to celebrate your birthday?
Haha... This little thief shows off his skills and thinks that a good understanding of Taoism can deceive the Empress Dowager.
Just...
After having an idea in his heart, Mu instantly regained his calmness and confidence, and his pale face also regained a little bloody color.
She forced a smile, looked at Fang Jifan, then looked at the Empress Dowager, and saluted the Empress Dowager: "Empress, when it comes to this Taoism, I have invited a real person to celebrate the birthday of the Empress Dowager. This real person is a noble man from Jiangnan and a real person who spreads the Dharma. This time, he has spent some effort to invite him. Empress, the real person who spreads the Dharma is not in good health, and it is really not easy to come from afar this time."
The real person who spreads the Dharma...Liu Tianzheng...
Anyone here who worships and believes in Taoism will change slightly when he hears the true person who spreads the Dharma.
That's right, since the Duke of Wei's Mansion celebrates the Empress Dowager's birthday in order to make a big deal, how could he find any cat and dog to preach to the Empress Dowager?
This true man who spreads the Dharma is one of the most famous real people in Jiangnan. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has learned from ancient and modern times. His scriptures have learned the true teachings of the true people of Longhu Mountain and have written several scriptures, which are very popular.
What's more, the eighty-one view of Longhu Mountain. This correct view is the first of the eighty-one view. The world's correct view is naturally the most prominent view of the heroes.
It is reported that when the true man who spread the Dharma was forty, he was entrusted by the Heavenly Master Mansion to watch the Dharma, which shows how outstanding this person is.
Now he is nearly seventy years old and only practices in the mountains. It is not easy for contemporary rituals to be used by contemporary celestial masters. I even heard that last year, he was seriously ill and almost left.
Such a weak body and such a respectable person, unexpectedly, was invited to the capital by the Duke of Wei's Mansion.
In the early days, due to the influence of Emperor Chenghua, many noble families in the capital worshipped Taoism, so they all heard of this true master who spread the Dharma. Unexpectedly, this true master who spread the Dharma is now in this capital, which made many destined women unable to help but be moved.
The Duke of Wei State's Mansion really touched the Empress Dowager's appetite.
As soon as this killer move came out, the Empress Dowager's dislike just now disappeared and she couldn't help but say, "But Liu Tianzheng, Liu Zhenren? The Ai family had heard that he set up a temple in Zhengyi Temple of Longhu Mountain to teach classics. His scriptures were also read by the Ai family. Although he was stupid in his qualifications and did not understand the meaning, he could still feel his profound Taoism. He didn't expect that he would come to Beijing?"
"That's right." Mu was anxious to turn over at this time, and when he saw the Queen Mother moved, he felt happy.
From the corner of her eyes, she couldn't help but look at Fang Jifan, thinking to herself, you can see this little bit of weight when the real person who spreads the Dharma comes. The Empress Dowager is an old lady, so she naturally believes in your evil spirit, but when this real person arrives, she can immediately expose your knowledge of half a bucket of water.
"I have invited him to the Wumen Gate and just wait for the Empress to summon him." She smiled and looked at Fang Jifan and said, "I heard that Fang Shi's nephew also has some knowledge of Taoism. What a good thing about this? Once the real person arrives, you might as well ask the real person to spread the Dharma to discuss with Fang Shi's nephew."
When the Empress Dowager heard that the Dharma-Supporting Master came, she was very happy: "I used to only hear the name of Master Liu, and I have never met you. Today I really want to hear his teachings. Come in quickly, invite Master Liu in."
Fang Jifan was not worried at all when he heard that Mu wanted to lead a real person to come and discuss with him. Instead, he smiled. Women... It's really troublesome. You're not over yet...
Fortunately, he is not afraid of asking for advice or exchanging questions. Anyway, he is young and loses if he loses. Is it embarrassing to lose to a respected real person?
However, this woman thought she had invited a real person to come, and her smug look was really annoying. Your uncle, if it weren't for the birthday of the Empress Dowager today, we would have sent you a brain disease.
A eunuch had already gone to the Meridian Gate to invite the real person to the palace.
The destiny wives in the hall were silent, waiting with breath, and they were also looking forward to seeing the charm of the true person who spreads the Dharma in Jiangnan.
At this time, Mu took the opportunity to say, "Empress, this true person who spreads the Dharma can now be called the number one true person in the world. He has profound Taoism, which is very comparable to those who cheat..."
After hearing this, the Empress Dowager felt that Mu hated him even more. She naturally knew what Mu wanted to do.
So she looked at Fang Jifan, who looked smiling, as if she didn't hear the "gun and stick" in Mu's words.
Isn't this... just a fool?
Young people, you don’t know the dangers of the world. They are ridiculing you and scolding you. You are good, and you are still smiling.
This made the Empress Dowager inevitably feel a little sympathy for the other party's reign.
This child has had brain disease and has lost his mother since childhood. It's so pitiful...
She didn't have an attack on Mu, but she still had a slight smile on her face, but the deep eyes that had experienced countless things in her life were sharp as if she was watching the fire.
A moment later, Liu Tianzheng, the real person who spreads the Dharma, entered the palace.
I saw the true man who spread the Dharma wearing a Taoist scarf, his feet on his clothes, and was wearing only a white Taoist robes. After entering the hall, he did not look at him. When he saw the Empress Dowager, he was not surprised by his honor and disgrace. He ritualed to the Empress Dowager and said, "I have seen the Empress Dowager, and I have never seen him for a long time."
The Empress Dowager looked at the true person who spread the Dharma with bright eyes and said happily: "The real person's name is as famous as thunder."
"I dare not." Liu Tianzheng, the real person who spreads the Dharma, just smiled slightly and bowed, "This is just a false reputation. I am a wise man who is about to die, how can I bear the praise of the Empress?"
Everyone looked at Liu Tianzheng up and down, and they all felt that this Taoist immortal was in a state of mind, and was not afraid of favors and disgraces, but they really had the style of a paranormal master.
Even Emperor Hongzhi, who was wearing simple Taoist clothes and indifferent comments, felt that this person was quite different.
The Empress Dowager looked very happy and smiled and said, "Come on, come on, give the real person a seat."
"I dare not sit, just stand." Liu Tianzheng refused: "This time I was invited by the Duke of Wei and entered the palace to see him. I was already frightened. It was already a blessing for me to see the saint. Standing can help the Empress Dowager to answer some doubts, so I am already satisfied."
He was too modest.
Perhaps it was because a group of Taoists were too arrogant and domineering during the Chenghua period that Liu Tianzheng appeared to be extremely cautious when he entered the palace.
In fact, he was unwilling to come in his heart. If it weren't for the face of Duke Wei, he was already at the age of knowing his destiny, and it would be better to enjoy a peaceful life in Longhu Mountain.
The Empress Dowager nodded, feeling more and more that this real person deserves respect, so she was very happy and looked at Mu and said, "The Ai family is worthy of your Xu family today."
Mu quickly said in panic: "I must never dare. The Empress is so serious. My concubine and the family are ministers. It is natural for me to serve the Empress. How dare I make merit? Liu Zhenren is a noble man and he admires the Empress Dowager. This is also his fate."
These words were handled very well.
After all, he is from a top wealthy family, and his character is the same thing, but these beautiful words are amazing.
But she also had a proud side. She was cheated by Fang Jifan just now. She always felt confused. How could she miss this great opportunity? She said again: "My Nephew Fang is good at learning, so she might as well ask real people for advice."
This is clearly a provocation, and it is a hint that the Empress Dowager, Fang Jifan is a ignorant guy, so the Empress Dowager must not be fooled by him.
Fang Jifan said oh, looking uninterested and said, "If you don't ask for advice, don't ask for advice, what's the point of Taoism?"
I don't bother to pay attention to her.
The Empress Dowager also felt that Mu was troublesome. This woman was really a petty woman.
Fang Jifan is more sensible.
but……
After hearing Mu's words, Liu Tianzheng's expression changed.
His face, which was calm and gentle just now, instantly became solemn.
There are actually people who practice Taoism here...
But he looked around and could find half a Taoist person.
There is only one answer... This is also the thing that Liu Tianzheng fears the most.
Since the Chenghua period, because the Emperor Chenghua admired Taoism, many people who were frivolous and pretended to be Taoist in order to be rich and wealthy, and caused trouble in the palace.
After that, Taoism was in a slump because these villains cheated on Taoism.
I never expected that when Zi ascended the throne today, these traitors had just been eradicated, and now someone has infiltrated the palace and bewitched the Empress Dowager.
What he hated the most in his life was the fake Taoist, who corrupted the reputation of Taoism. When he heard Mu's words, he became alert and said indifferently: "Oh, I don't know where this fellow Taoist is?"
In fact, he had seen Fang Jifan, and Fang Jifan said he was not asking for advice.
This is just a teenager. What kind of Taoist can a teenager understand is simply ridiculous. This is clearly... it is just a liar who cheats.
Liu Tianzheng took a step forward. He made up his mind to maintain the reputation of this Taoist country today and not repeat the mistakes of the Chenghua period.
He looked at Fang Jifan with a smile, with contempt in his eyes, and then he said righteously: "A lay Buddhist also participates in the Tao?"
Everyone's eyes fell on Fang Jifan.
Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan with a smile and said to himself, OK, it depends on how you ended up.
The Empress Dowager did not want any dispute between the two sides. Fang Jifan's Taoism was recognized by Puji Zhenren, and she believed in this. She also admired Zhenren Liu.
However, seeing Liu Tianzheng's awesome look, it was obvious that Liu Tianzheng, a person outside the country, seemed to have been really angry for no reason.
Fang Jifan stood up. Today, Japan planned to be an honest man, but things didn't go as expected.
So he glared at Mu, with a smile on his face, and he looked like he was sitting and watching the fun.
Fang Jifan slowly answered Liu Tianzheng: "Occasionally... I will read some Taoist books."
