Li Qingcha was puzzled.
"Your Majesty, just looking at the names, these three positions are obviously Buddhist or Taoist officials. I am not a Taoist monk, how can I be admitted to the Taoist Records Office?"
The emperor's smile grew wider.
"The officials of the Daoluosi are both Taoist and laymen."
"what……"
"You don't study the Four Books and Five Classics. After much thought, I can only use your status as a cultivator and combine it with the recent dispute between the three sects of Taoism to reward you with a minor official position to silence the gossips. Don't let me down."
What good intentions does this have...
The Emperor's original words just now -
The dispute over the orthodox doctrine is the most troublesome.
What's more, the dispute between the three sects is in the capital, which will attract cultivators from all over the world to come to the capital to watch the fun.
By then, what will the public security situation be like?
Don't even think about it!
If something goes wrong, Daoluo Si will definitely be held accountable.
Hey!
This is like putting a bomb in my hand...
Chapter 282 The Taoist monks of the world are like arrows hitting the hub
There was a fire pit in front of him, and Li Qingcha was definitely unwilling to jump in.
She considered how to refuse.
In ancient times, the methods of rejecting the emperor varied according to one's status.
Take the imperial concubines as an example. They would inform the Ministry of Internal Affairs if they felt unwell, so they would not be required to participate in the "duty";
For example, officials use the term "qi hui gu", which means requesting to retire due to old age.
As for ordinary people like Li Qingcha...
The best thing to do is to act stupid.
Her eyes were dull and innocent, and she seemed to be a little slow to react. She asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, I am a little... ahem... I don't like this Daolusi. How about we go to the Honglu Temple?"
The emperor was choked, as if something was stuck in his throat.
He clenched his fists tightly under the table, his knuckles turning white, and his expression became gloomy.
"Li Qingcha, you are so brave!"
For a moment, the atmosphere in Qingwang Pavilion seemed to become a little colder.
The emperor was so angry because at today's small court meeting, Chu Zhongtian had proposed that Li Qingcha be assigned to the Ministry of Rites. If that didn't work, he could be assigned to the Honglu Temple as a sinecure.
Chu Zhongtian did not specify the specific reason.
The emperor speculated that this was to pave the way for the subsequent events of the demon delegation.
Of course, the emperor would not agree.
But it was Chu Zhongtian's suggestion that made him think of the Dao Lu Si, which led to what happened just now.
Who would have thought that as soon as this matter was mentioned to Li Qingcha, Li Qingcha would change the subject to the Honglu Temple, making it hard not to associate her with Chu Zhongtian, and forming a clique for personal gain.
Form a party.
military power.
Times have changed, dynasties have come and gone, but these two have always remained in place and have always been a thorn in the side of emperors.
Li Qingcha has even been involved, how can one not be angry?
The emperor said: "Do you really think I will tolerate you again and again?"
The temperature in Qingwang Pavilion dropped again.
Li Qingcha's hair stood on end.
It was not because he felt the "kingly aura", but because he noticed that Gao Zhi behind him had quietly changed his posture.
Gao Zhi took out his hands from his sleeves and put them against his trouser legs. Although he still had his brows lowered and his head bowed, his temperament suddenly changed. It was not surprising that he pounced on him the next second.
It is indeed high quality.
Li Qingcha put his hands on his waist.
Unexpectedly, the moment she touched the flowing light, the world in her eyes changed subtly.
The emperor and Gao Zhi seemed to be enveloped in aura, as if covered by a layer of glowing film.
Moreover, Gao Zhi was extremely arrogant.
Is this the art of looking at qi?
No, it can’t be the Qi-gazing technique…
Luo Weiyang once described the world he saw after using the Qigong technique as being colorful and very vivid.
Li Qingcha's monochrome Qi-gazing technique is at most a youth version.
However, it was enough to sense the murderous intent.
She couldn't help but hesitate.
There are two external Qi in his body, in addition to the one that Luo Weiyang used the Life Transfer Formation to transfer, there is also a part of the Lingyun Pill.
If this is also possible, wouldn't it be possible to integrate the basics of Taoism?
When he was in Jinghu, Li Qingcha had combined the Yunluozhibu of Lingyun Sect and the Tianmoxiuhunwu of Yue Sect, and knew the principle of 1+1>2. The Supervisor also talked about the characteristics of the Demon Sect that they were united but not integrated.
She suddenly changed her mind.
"I, a humble citizen, thank the emperor for his grace!"
emperor:? ? ?
All the arguments I had prepared to reprimand were no longer useful.
"You...you agreed?"
"All under heaven belongs to the king, and all the people in the world are his subjects. I, a humble commoner, thank the emperor for his grace."
"Ah this..."
The emperor was unable to come to his senses for a moment.
Li Qingcha agreed so readily that he began to wonder if there was something wrong with his approach.
But no matter how I think about it, going to Daoluosi doesn't seem to be a good thing.
There are many things to do.
Low salary,
Great responsibility,
……
Who except a Taoist priest would like to do such a crappy job?
I'm afraid he's a fool...
The emperor no longer hesitated.
"In that case, I will send the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel to discuss your... Li Qing's official position today. Go ahead."
"promise!"
Li Qingcha walked straight out the door.
Qingwang Pavilion became quiet again.
The emperor's eyes fell on the fragments of Taoist manuscripts, but his heart could not calm down.
He looked at Gao Zhi.
"Why did he suddenly agree just now? Was it because you showed your murderous intent and scared him?"
Gao Zhi shook his head uncertainly.
"This slave doesn't know either."
"Not sure?"
"For a moment, Li Qingcha's hand reached for his waist, clearly wanting to accept the challenge."
"What did you say?"
The emperor was a little confused.
Although he was not a monk, he had seen pigs run even though he had eaten pork. He knew that there was a crushing power between monks across the realms.
Li Qingcha was able to muster the desire to fight against Gao Zhi...
"is it possible?"
Gao Zhi's face still showed uncertainty.
"It shouldn't be possible unless Li Qingcha's state of mind is extremely high and his rank won't become a shackle."
"My state of mind is extremely high..."
The emperor agreed with this.
The reason why he hated Li Qingcha was because when he first met him, he sensed a kind of contempt for imperial power from Li Qingcha, and this contempt was engraved in his bones, emitting a disgusting stench from the inside out.
If someone offended the emperor, he would probably just laugh it off.
But when it comes to Li Qingcha...
He just can't get over it.
As the emperor has been in power for a long time, his mind has become more and more sensitive, and he can clearly feel who might become his enemy.
Since it is a possible enemy,
"We must find an excuse to get him to the side as soon as possible."
¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥
Outside Chengtian Gate.
Xiang Nanyu walked over with the horse, and seeing his senior brother lowering his head in deep thought, he subconsciously asked, "Senior brother, what's wrong?"
Li Qingcha came back to his senses, skipped the part about Sirou, and said everything he could.
Xiang Nanyu couldn't help but frown.
"Dao Lu Si..."
"Have you ever heard of this office?"
"No."
"Oh, that's good. It seems I'm not the only one who is illiterate."
Li Qingcha started joking.
Seeing her like this, Xiang Nanyu was a little dissatisfied.
"Brother, you are so smart, you must have known that the emperor had bad intentions in sending you to the Daoluo Division. Why didn't you find an excuse to refuse?"
"Well... I think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages."
"Lee? Why can't I see it?"
"Seeking an official position, and a position in charge of the sect, may be helpful to my cultivation."
This was the first time Xiang Nanyu had heard that being an official and practicing cultivation were compatible.
She looked confused.
Li Qingcha lowered his voice.
