Taoist priest?

Zhu Quanzhong thinks there is no problem!

In the Song Dynasty, Taoism was the state religion, and the Tao Palace had power and status that exceeded the temple. It was very common to have Taoist soldiers. After all, in addition to the relatively safe big cities in the Song Dynasty, Tao Palace far away from the city had more wealth than ordinary local rich people, and would become the target of bandits and bandits and would inevitably need protection.

As for the rebels, they would be worried about disturbing the gods...

Stop kidding, you have all become bandits and you don’t even want your life. What else can you talk about whether you believe in it or not?

Zhu Quanzhong could breathe a sigh of relief. After all, it would be better to sell it to Taoist temples or Taoist palaces than to bandits and bandits. Taoism is the national religion of the Song Dynasty. It has many Taoist palaces and Taoist temples, and the number of Taoist priests is also very large. Even the emperor would give himself a Taoist name. The Taoist palace with huge wealth and resources enjoys a high degree of autonomy, and training Taoist soldiers is not too outrageous.

Taoist soldiers, a special group that is between servants and militias, have poor combat effectiveness and will not let the court care.

Zhu Quanzhong secretly glanced at Li Kui and found that the other party was as dark as ever and could not see through his thoughts. However, he felt that he had the opportunity to get away with it and whispered: "Sir, the Taoist Palace needs to train a certain number of Taoist soldiers. I think these weapons should be the most useful."

"How much less armor?"

"Nearly eighty."

After Li Kui asked Liang Shijie, he turned his head and sneered at Zhu Quanzhong: "Does the Taoist soldiers need armor?"

"this……"

Zhu Quanzhong was stunned. Of course, the Taoist soldiers did not need armor. The Taoist soldiers were just Taoist disciples armed to protect the property of the Taoist Palace. To put it bluntly, they were the strong men who guarded the house.

However, due to the special status of the Taoist Palace, these sold weapons will not cause Zhu Quanzhong to bear too much responsibility.

Anyway, the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty were like this, and it would be unreasonable to punish Zhu Quanzhong alone. If the imperial guards were thoroughly investigated, the more than 200,000 troops in the northwest of the Song Dynasty would probably rebel. After all, the generals often greedy for themselves, but for the pension of the soldiers. Of course, this was just the Western Army, and there was no such possibility in the Central Plains and Jiangnan.

If you don’t fight in a war, what’s the pension?

"The Taoist Palace does not need armor, but it bought armor, which shows that these people are planning a lot." Bai Shizhong had no hatred for Zhu Quanzhong, but he thought that Li Kui needed him to hand over the knife, and immediately understood it and gave Li Kui an assist.

Li Kui nodded and said, "Mr. Bai said so much. What do you think is the Taoist who bought armor?"

Bai Shizhong grinned and thought to himself: This Lord Li is too fascinated. He said so just to cooperate with Li Kui. However, Bai Shizhong doesn't mind burning the ground more vigorously. As long as Li Kui is happy, he doesn't care whether a martial artist will be wronged. Besides, if Zhu Quanzhong doesn't resell the weapons, he will not have a chance to frame him.

"Sir, will it be a turmoil?"

Bai Shizhong stood beside Li Kui and said this secretly.

Zhu Quanzhong was so scared that his face turned pale and exclaimed: "Mr. Bai, Bei Zhi has no grudges and grudges with you, why should he frame Bei Zhi?"

But Li Kui touched his chin, ignored Zhu Quanzhong's despair, and said in a conversation: "It is very likely. Although the Taoist Palace needs protection, no matter how big the Taoist Palace is, it does not require five hundred people. If it were the royal temple, there were already guards of the imperial guards, and there was no need to buy weapons to protect the Taoist Palace. In this way, this thief is likely to use the identity of a Taoist as a guise and do things that are unfavorable to me in the Song Dynasty behind my back."

"Sir, I'm not convinced!"

"It doesn't matter whether you accept it or not. What matters is what the people holding the arms plan. You'd better pray that they don't make trouble recently, otherwise, you can't wash away anything that the criminals of the bandit said."

In fact, when Li Kui heard that the person who bought the weapon was Bao Daoyi, he determined that the purpose of this batch of weapons was to rebel and rebellion. This guy was an old thief and had never thought about it. Unfortunately, he could not give up his conclusion before he found the main master.

"Zhu Gui."

"I am in a humble position."

"You will take people to investigate the Taoist palaces in Jiangning, Changzhou and other places as soon as possible, and find out that the Taoist palace has recently formed a Taoist army."

"The villain takes the order."

"Cao Fang!"

"The last one will be here!"

"You accept the Jiangning yamen, the soldiers and generals Zhu Quanzhong and other followers to take heed."

"Sir, I'm wronged to be a humble position!"

"Pull it down."

...

In the following days, the city of Jiangning was full of wind and the imperial guards and the wing army were restricted to the military camp. The messengers traveling between Jiangning, Suzhou and Changzhou kept conveying the news.

As more and more information is passed, Li Kui has already determined Bao Daoyi's plan. He has planted a nail on the edge of Jiangning, an important town in Jiangnan. Once he has the opportunity to start a crime, he will immediately prepare to seize Jiangning Mansion.

However, the demon's hidden troops have not been found yet.

On this day, Gongsun Sheng felt Jiangning Mansion full of dust, but the imperial guards guarding the city gate stopped him. Then the leader carefully compared Gongsun Sheng with a portrait on the sea captain's document. Looking at the big face of the sea captain's document, Gongsun Sheng's mouth twitched for no reason. Does it look like it, can it be compared?

Even so, the other party still reached out to Gongsun Sheng very seriously and said, "A certificate!"

Gongsun Sheng was not sure, so he sent the certificate of tribute.

The other party glanced at Gongsun Sheng and asked, "What are you doing when you come to Jiangning Mansion?"

Gongsun Sheng was stunned, as if he was hesitant to go to the wrong place. He said in confusion: "The Song Dynasty did not ask the rules of monks. Why did Jiangning Prefecture set this precedent?"

"Tell you, the rules in the world have not been changed, but the rules in Jiangning Mansion have been changed." The other party threw the certificate to Gongsun Sheng without hesitation, and then threatened: "What should I see, let's send you to prison."

"I……"

Gongsun Sheng was not as good as he was in normal times, but he was also a bad temper. Otherwise, he would not have made friends with Chao Gai and others at the beginning. But he could not have done so that he could break in through the city gate.

Just as Ruan Xiaowu passed by, Gongsun Sheng stood on tiptoe and raised his hand and shouted, "Xiaowu."

Ruan Xiaowu then noticed Gongsun Sheng, walked to the city gate and said to the patrolling captain, "This man is an old friend of the adults. Let him go."

"Ofyed the Taoist priest."

Gongsun Sheng ignored him and just followed Ruan Xiaowu into the city. When no one around paid attention, he asked: "Xiaowu, what happened? Why did the city gates get martial law?"

"The army sold a batch of weapons and was bought by people from the Taoist sect. By the way, this batch of weapons may eventually fall into the hands of the demon who fought with you." Ruan Xiaowu didn't say much, just said a little.

Gongsun Sheng thoughtfully: "What do he want weapons?"

"Create Taoist soldiers! Aren't you also a Taoist priest? Didn't your Taoist temple form a Taoist soldiers?" Ruan Xiaowu thought that all Taoist temples had these Taoist soldiers guarding the house.

But Gongsun Sheng smiled bitterly and said, "I have only a dozen Taoist priests who have become monks. How can I use any Taoist soldiers? However, if the weapons are bought by the demons, it may not be simple."

Gongsun Sheng looked at the city full of soldiers walking by, and thought to himself: It's time to fight.

But he also felt it was a bit ridiculous. Is it necessary to mobilize a group of demons to deal with such a mobilization?

He forgot that he had been very harmful to the demon before.

Speaking of which, Gongsun Sheng is not worthy of Bao Dao Yi at all. He practices orthodox thunder law. Bao Dao Yi is an evil law. Not to mention, evil law will definitely be defeated when encountering orthodox Taoism. But Gongsun Sheng is sure that if he comes to the battle with integrity, he will definitely win Bao Dao Yi. The problem is that this thief Taoist method is used to ask for magic weapons at any time. It turns out that Bao Dao Yi has a golden light sword, which can use magic tricks to take the head level within a hundred steps. It is impossible to defend against, and there is no good way to crack it. Gongsun Sheng lost under this golden light sword.

This made him feel uncomfortable. Before there was a way to crack it, Gongsun Sheng could only retreat to Bao Daoyi.

But now, he has learned his master's bottom-up magic. Are you still afraid that Bao Daoyi will not succeed?

However, when facing Li Kui, Gongsun Sheng was still a little alienated. After all, the whip he had never forgotten in his life. He grew up so old that he had never suffered such humiliation. Especially since he surrendered, reported, and beaten, it was too inhumane.

Follow Ruan Xiaowu to the governor's mansion.

Besides, Zhu Quanzhong, the commander of Jiangning, was in trouble. The sky caused trouble. First, the ship of the female family in the family collided with Li Kui's boat. Who knew that Li Kui's official, who was such a big official, actually lived on the troop transport ship, was simply a person who lost his civil servants. But it was just that in a very inch that made him catch up.

Next, he was frightened for several days.

Fortunately, Li Kui finally released him, and even his detained female family members were released. However, they could only live in the mansion and could not go out.

Ten days passed in a flash, and his men hurriedly ran to him and reported to him: "General, the Imperial Guard seems to be sending troops."

"This is an opportunity!" Zhu Quanzhong said secretly. Although he has not been jailed, it is difficult to solve the problem. Who knows how Li Kui will arrange him when he returns to the capital?

Instead of waiting for death, it is better to take the initiative.

Of course, if you want to threaten Li Kui with several times more troops than Li Kui, you don’t have to think about it. He doesn’t have the courage either. However, he would not refuse Li Kui’s initiative to ask for meritorious service.

"Put my master's official uniform. No..." Zhu Quanzhong suddenly called the slave, hesitated for a while, and then made up his mind to say, "Get my general's armor and serve the master wearing armor and helmet."

The scarlet cloak was so heroic and mighty. If it weren't for the sweat on the tip of the nose that had swayed a little, his calves were betrayed Zhu Quanzhong's hollowed-out body, there would be no flaw in other aspects.

Controlling the Palace.

Seeing that his general's mansion was occupied by Li Kui, Zhu Quanzhong's eyes showed desolation and sorrow. Of course, being favored by civil servants was his blessing. Zhu Quanzhong even wanted to leave two dancers and concubines for Li Kui before moving out of the mansion, but Li Kui refused.

Failure to curry favor with Li Kui did make Zhu Quanzhong feel uneasy.

Especially when he saw Bai Shizhong, who was also a fourth-grade waiting to be made, he bowed to curry favor with Li Kui. Zhu Quanzhong immediately figured it out that he was nothing in front of Li Kui.

"stop!"

"This young master, I am the commander-in-chief of Jiangning, Zhu Quanzhong!"

While speaking, Zhu Quanzhong pointed to the three big words "The Mansion of the Commander" on the plaque at the door, trying to show his identity. The person who stopped him was the guard, but Wu Song was the leader.

Wu Song recognized that the other party was the head of the Jiangning Prefecture General. But so what? If the master wanted to rub him, he would be rubbed. Now even Wu Song dared not offend such a person. But what about Wu Song? There was a fifth-rank general in front of him saluting him, and he suddenly had a kind of sublimated Su Shuang.

Wu Song, who died of both his parents since childhood, was a bitter child who had been so bitter that he could still be today!

Wu Song has a proud personality and is proud of the power, but he has no airs towards ordinary people. But this is not because of his personality. He is proud of the power, because he feels that he has the ability. Even if he is working hard, he needs to find a wise master to prevent his martial arts from being buried. Of course, it is not the case with Li Kui. He is here to hug his uncle's thigh. He never thought that he would even hug him.

Although Wu Song looked at the gate, he could not lose his power as a military commander. He said to Zhu Quanzhong without hesitation: "No one will see you, go back!"

"This guy, Zhu just wanted to ask, Lord Li wants to send troops?" Zhu Quanzhong was not discouraged and took out a silver from his waist and stuffed it into Wu Song's hand.

Wu Song said unhappyly, "I didn't say... OK, I'll go and ask you."

After feeling the weight of silver, Wu Song felt that Zhu Quanzhong was very sincere and wanted to say a few words to him. Of course, if there was no silver, that would be something.

After a while, Wu Song returned to the door and said to Zhu Quanzhong: "Sir, let you go in."

"Zhu Quanzhong, the commander of Jiangning Prefecture, met the Lord, and was willing to be the front pawn of the Lord for the Lord's envoy."
