Chapter 656: Give me back my innocence
Yang Zheng almost didn't blurt out: "If you have something to say, say it quickly, if you have a fart!" Fortunately, he knew his identity at the moment, and when he got to the mouth, he couldn't help it, he didn't know what kind of official position he was in charge of what household department, but listening to Wei Da's words just now, he also knew a little, in the six yamen, although each Langzhong is the leader of the department, but in dealing with daily affairs, there will be some differences in the division of labor, which is a bit similar to the current multiple deputy positions in charge of a certain aspect of affairs (of course, Lang Zhong is the main position, but there are many). For example, under the Arsenal Department of the Ministry of War, there are departments such as the Supervision Section, the Military Section, the Grain Section, and the Battalion Section. Therefore, each Langzhong has different emphases in his work, such as one person is in charge of affairs related to imperial examinations and martial arts, one is in charge of weapons-related affairs, and one is in charge of military registration-related affairs.
Wei Da didn't notice it, seeing everyone's eyes, he was a little nervous in his heart, and there was a little surprise on his face, this is an opportunity with a long face, how can he miss it.
After a little brewing, he said aloud: "Weichen thinks that Dabao'en Temple can have today's scale, and Zheng Gonggong can be said to have contributed a lot, but in the matter of silver and two, Weichen thinks that the accounts of the household department are also correct, Zheng Gonggong only recorded how much silver has been used in the past sixteen years, which is similar to the accounts of the household department, but the 500,000 taels of silver are still missing, but Zheng Gonggong did not mention a word, it may not be greedy?"
As soon as these words came out, Zheng Enlai was furious, stepped forward, and was about to make a move with his fist.
Suddenly, a voice sneered: "What, Lord Zheng, is this killing people?"
When Zheng Enlai heard this, although he was angry, he also knew that he was beating people because of anger, but if his fist was knocked down and fell in the eyes of others, wouldn't it be murderous, and it would greatly damage his father's reputation, so he put down his raised fist stiffly.
"Lord Wei, please don't talk nonsense, the Great Bao'en Temple has lasted 16 years, using the whole country to collect 100,000 good craftsmen and military workers, only the cost of building a tower, used 2,485,484 taels of money, grain and silver, my father in order to repair the Great Bao'en Temple, the remaining more than 100,000 taels of silver in the West are also consumed in the construction of the tower, how can he privately covet the 500,000 taels of silver, my father is not that kind of person!
Wei Da snorted coldly and said, "It's not that kind of person, hehe, then why is there fifty taels of silver missing from the account of the household department, and there is no Zheng Gong Bus Representative?"
"Yes, Gonggong Zheng just recorded the scale of the construction of the Dabao'en Temple in the past 16 years, as well as where the silver taels were spent, and these accounts have also been recorded by my household department, but the 500,000 taels of silver that disappeared are not seen by Zheng Gonggong, could it be that Gonggong Zheng swallowed it privately, right?" Chen Shan also reacted at this time, hurriedly hugged Yang Zheng, and said loudly.
The originally quiet imperial study room was once again lively, and the sound of everyone talking to each other could be faintly heard.
Yang Zheng was really a little irritable about such a court, but now that he is sitting in the position of the prince, he has to endure it, and this household has a bit of a bullying taste, but the words that can be said and the reasons given are also irrefutable, and he didn't know what to say, so he had to comply with everyone's requests, and sighed: "Gonggong Zheng, let's talk about it?"
Zheng He has a very good impression of the prince in front of him, and the prince shows his intention to defend him today, he almost sees the hope of returning to the West, and his heart is not annoyed by Wei Da's words with ulterior motives, but secretly a little happy, if it is not for the 500,000 taels of silver, how can he know that the prince has the intention of defending himself.
I was overjoyed, and I felt more and more that what the little brother Yang said was right, the trip to the West would be restarted again, and he would arrive at the place called Mecca and go on a pilgrimage.
Just as he was secretly rejoicing, he suddenly heard Chen Shan say coldly again: "Gonggong Zheng is silent, is there nothing to say?"
Zheng He was stunned for a moment, woke up from his joy, raised his head and glanced at Yang Zheng, seeing the prince's expectant eyes, he was suddenly frightened into a cold sweat, and said in his heart: "Today's saint is afraid of himself, and I am afraid that the trip to the West will not be completed, but this prince is quite an ancestor, and whether he can restart the trip to the West is afraid that it will fall on him, if he does not explain the whereabouts of the 500,000 taels of silver today, and is convicted of embezzlement by Chen Shan, this prince will be disgusted, I am afraid that it will not be possible to go to the West again." “
Thinking of this, his eyes changed slightly, and his gaze swept away coldly, falling on Wei Da's face.
It was the first time Wei Da was stared at by Zheng He like this, and he was suddenly startled, and his knife-like gaze made him uncomfortable.
Zheng He glanced at it a few times, and suddenly said loudly: "Do all of you all know how to ride horses?"
Everyone thought that Zheng He would do it because of anger, everyone was nervous, you must know that Zheng He is burly, knowledgeable, quick thinking, when he was only a teenager, he was able to complete the mission assigned to him by King Yan brilliantly, and got Zhu Di's weight, "there is no one else in the inner servant", Jing Yan was even more tested by the war, followed Zhu Di to participate in the "Battle of Jing Yan", was born and died, turned to the north and south, experienced several heavy battles, and practiced a body of martial arts in the war, it is said that the eight hundred dead soldiers of the Yan Wangfu of that year recognized Zheng He's martial arts as the first.
Everyone looked at him, for fear that he would kill people on impulse, and everyone was nervous.
"Horseback riding, is Lone the best at it?" Yang Zheng suddenly said excitedly: "Could it be that Gonggong Zheng wants to take us to Dabao'en Temple?"
Zheng He nodded, shook his head again, and after saluting Yang Zheng, he turned around and said, "Your lords are very curious about the 500,000 taels of silver, today the servants want to invite you to go with the minions and go to a place to have a look?"
"Go to a place?" Yang Zheng faintly felt something muttered, and said, "But Da Bao'en Temple?"
Zheng He shook his head and said, "Qixia Mountain!"
"Qixia Mountain-where to do what?" Yang Zheng asked curiously.
Zheng He's expression froze, and his eyes swept over everyone one by one and said loudly: "Return my innocence!" After speaking, he added: "Please also ask Your Highness to fulfill it?"
"Okay! I will go to Qixia Mountain with Gonggong Zheng, I don't know what you think?" Yang Zheng didn't believe that Zheng He embezzled the 500,000 silver, and at this time, he heard that he had a lot of meaning to tell the ins and outs, where would he not agree.
The prince spoke, even if Chen Shan and the others were unwilling, it was difficult to say anything at this time, and besides, seeing Zheng He's expression, everyone was secretly a little surprised in their hearts, but they also had the intention of going to take a look, so everyone nodded and agreed.
Yang Zheng didn't say anything more, and immediately asked the guards to prepare horses, and Zheng He led the way, and rushed to Qixia Mountain.
Qixia Mountain is located in Qixia District, Nanjing City, also known as Setshan, because there are many historical sites and scenic spots in the mountain, the memorable late autumn red leaves, "East Flying Sky" grottoes are the business cards to attract tourists at home and abroad, Qixia Mountain in late autumn, full of red leaves, like a beautiful picture work, so Nanjing folk have the saying of "spring ox head, autumn Qixia". Of course, the most famous is still a Qixia Temple, Qixia Temple has a thousand Buddha rocks carved in stone in the Southern Dynasty and the relics pagoda of the Sui Dynasty; the west side of Qixia Mountain is called Fengling, there are patches of maple trees, Qixia in late autumn, the maple trees are full of red leaves, Qixia Mountain is also known as "the first bright and beautiful mountain in Jinling".
Almost in the afternoon, Yang Zheng and others rushed to the foot of Qixia Mountain, Yang Zheng is also proficient in equestrianism on weekdays, and it is not a big problem to ride a horse up a mountain, but it is a pity for those weak literati who can't help but be able to stand it, they go out to sit in a sedan chair on weekdays, where can they stand this kind of bumps, especially the rugged and steep mountain road in Qixia Mountain, which makes these literati hum and hum, but the prince of the family sits on horseback, these literati obviously can't bear this torture in their hearts, but they don't dare to show it, they can only grit their teeth and work hard to support.
Zheng He wanted to take them to the Thousand Buddha Rock located at the southwest foot of Fengxiang Peak, because his innocence was there.
Legend has it that the founder of Qixia Temple, Seng Shao, had dreamed that there was a Buddha light on the west rock wall, so he was determined to chisel the Buddha statue here; after his death, his son began to chisel the Buddha shrine on the west wall with the monk Zhidu Zen master in the second year of Yongming in the Southern Qi Dynasty, engraved three Buddha statues, these three Buddhas are collectively called "the three saints of the West", and the temple is also called "three temples". All Buddha statues or five or six statues in a niche, or seven or eight statues in a room. There are 515 Buddha statues, which are carved in 294 Buddha shrines, known as the Thousand Buddha Cliffs.
Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming dynasties have been excavated in the Shamao Peak, including the Southern Dynasties, a total of 700. The big Buddha statue is several feet high, and the small one is only a foot. Among them, "Big Buddha Pavilion" is the earliest time to excavate, the largest grotto, chiseled in the seven years of Yongming in the Southern Qi Dynasty, the statue of Amitayus Buddha sitting in the middle is as high as four zhang, very spectacular.
Yang Zheng and Zheng He enjoyed the scenery along the way, rushed all the way to the wasabi, and only after a stick of incense did they arrive at the wasabi, saying that it was wasabi, but it was better to say a large stone unloading shed.
The whole stone unloading shed is very strong, spread all the way along the wasabi, this area is stacked with heavy rocks, the peaks and peaks are green, at a glance to eat the mountain stone, you can't see other exquisite, hundreds of thousands of craftsmen on the field are burying their heads in building stones, there is a lot of noise for a while, bursts of smoke are rising.
