Zhang Xuan is as fierce as a ghost, better than the king of Hades enshrined on the main hall.

He received an edict from the palace and asked him to clean up the fields of the Xishan Temple. And Zhang Xuan has long been eager to try this...... Everyone knows that land taxation is the lifeblood of a country. In the Jiajing Dynasty, there were more than 10 million fewer people than the Hongwu Dynasty, and more than half of the acres of land!

Of course, everyone knows that the reason is not that the Ming Dynasty suffered an unprecedented disaster, but that someone annexed the land and avoided paying taxes.

Of course, the main force is the scholar.

In addition, the nobles of the court, the vassal kings all over the country, and the eunuchs of the inner court were all accomplices in the plundering of the land.

Among these people, it is easy to overlook the temples in various places.

Especially in Liangjing, there are also economically developed areas such as Jiangnan.

In these places, temples are all over the place, there are many good men and women, and the salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River often take out hundreds of thousands of taels to give to the temple, which has become a sensational rumor.

How rich the temple is, the big guys didn't have an intuitive impression in the past, and everything was all guesswork.

After Zhang Xuan personally raided a small temple, he finally got a glimpse of one or two.

There is only one old monk in this temple, five or six small novices, the front and back yards are only two or three acres, and many vegetables are planted on it.

From the outside, this is a small temple that has reached the extreme, clear and peaceful, and has no quarrel with the world.

But after really checking their account books, Zhang Xuan was stunned, and there were more than 1,200 farmers hanging under the temple! Relying on the protection of the temple, they can all escape from the field of servitude.

And in return, they need to hand over 30% of their annual income to the temple.

Zhang Zhang's people searched for a long time, but they didn't find any property...... Are these books fake? Zhang Xuan was skeptical, and finally he walked to the temple's Daxiong Treasure Hall. He strode to the offering table and watched carefully.

At this moment, Zhang Xuan is blessed to the soul, and he doesn't know which detective he is possessed. He found a trail of footprints on the dusty table.

Zhang Xuan simply climbed up, and he finally found out that he was tired!

"Come on, open this big Buddha!"

The soldiers hurriedly moved, and the Buddha, which was more than one person high, had an empty stomach and several wooden boxes. When I had exhausted the strength of the milk, I took the box out and put it in front of me.

Everyone was stunned!

Golden, white-flowered...... It's all gold bars and silver ingots!

According to rough estimates, there are more than 30,000 taels of silver alone, and thousands of taels of gold!

"It's really that monks don't love money, the more the better!"

Zhang Xuan snorted angrily and gritted his teeth, there is no doubt that these gold and silver were all exchanged for land rent. And the land rent was taken from the imperial court...... The monks who were monks did not produce in the first place, but they also occupied the land, and they made a lot of money, and they were stunned to live as moths.

A temple is a moth, the west mountain of the capital, there are more than 500 temples, and the buildings are moth-eaten, sucking the blood of the people!

"Come on, take them all down, and get ready to raid the next place."

Zhang Xuan counted the harvest, was quite satisfied, and was about to go to the next place, when suddenly a soldier ran in in a panic.

"Lord Chief, there are people outside, they surround us!"

"Surrounding?"

Zhang Xuan's brows furrowed, and a feeling of displeasure arose...... Cleaning up the temple, this is something that is destined to offend people. It's just that he didn't expect it to come so quickly!

"Let's go, come out with me!"

He stepped outside, but the soldier stopped him with his hand.

"Lord Zongxian, you are an old daughter, you can't have an accident, listen to the villain, you should avoid it quickly, right?"

Zhang Xuan flicked his sleeves and pushed the soldier aside, "Lao Tzu is not a lady, how can he have a daughter!" What's more, the old man is an official of the imperial court, and he can still be afraid of them! ”

Zhang Xuan stepped out and stood proudly.

Across from him was a crowd of people who couldn't see the end.

The open space in front of the temple, the vegetable garden in the distance, the trees on both sides, and wherever people can stand, they are all full of people, and some people even climb the trees.

They are on top of the temple, which is usually a grand occasion only during the New Year, but today it has appeared. Surprisingly, there was no smile on their faces, only strong anger, a pair of red eyes, locked Zhang Xuan, they clenched their fists, and gritted their teeth.

I can't wait to rush in and tear Zhang Xuan apart!

Of course, Zhang Xuan felt that the atmosphere was not good, but he had always been bold and didn't care at all.

"The old man is the imperial history of the left capital, what are you waiting for, you want to come to the old man?"

He asked three times in a row, and there was silence among the people. Some people even subconsciously retreated after hearing that he had reported for his official position.

Zuodu Yushi, what a big official!

At this time, an old man stood up, "Little old man wants to ask this adult, how did the master in this temple provoke the imperial court?" Can you bring troops to the door? Disturbing the quiet place of Buddhism? ”

Zhang Xuan bowed, "Uncle, this official was ordered to check the hidden acres. This small temple has given thousands of households to avoid the fields and collect countless wealth, such an evil monk, how can the official tolerate him! ”

"Please rest assured, after the official cleans up, he will return the land to the big guys, and will never let the people suffer...... Can you understand? ”

Zhang Xuan leaned over and asked, very humble.

But unexpectedly, at the moment when he leaned over, the old man raised his crutches and called Zhang Xuan.

Fortunately, Zhang Xuan dodged quickly and was not hit.

Two soldiers pounced and stood in front of Zhang Xuan.

The old man on the opposite side had hideous facial features and was out of breath, "Dog officer! I still want to deceive people! Don't give us a way to live, fight! ”

He staggered forward.

The soldiers could not ignore it, and they reached out and pushed the old man away, and the old man fell to the ground because of his unsteady steps. When he fell, he was still yelling, "Fight!" Fight with the dog officer! ”

There was such a person taking the lead, and the people behind, especially many young people, screamed and pounced on Zhang Xuan. There were dozens of people, and behind them, hundreds of good men and women, screaming and pounced.

Zhang Xuan could clearly see the hideous expressions and cannibalistic expressions of these people......

What's going on?

Obviously, for your own good, I can reduce your burden by taking stock of the hidden fields of the temple...... Why, why didn't these people figure it out and rush up?

Folks, you have been deceived, don't be stupid!

Zhang Xuan wanted to explain to the big guy, but unfortunately, he didn't have a chance to speak at all. The back was already in a mess, and the two soldiers helped Zhang Xuan and hurriedly retreated.

At this moment, a stone that flew from nowhere happened to hit the back of Zhang Xuan's head.

Zhang Xuan's eyes were dark, and his body fell softly!

The dignified Zuodu Yushi, the favorite minister of the Son of Heaven, actually found the attack, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead!

In an instant, the tiny temple exploded!

The people around Zhang Xuan let out an angry exclamation!

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!"

"Your Excellency has been attacked! Catch the murderer! ”

The soldiers rushed outside while rescuing Zhang Xuan.

The crowd seemed to know that something was wrong, and they fled in fear.

In a panic, those who fell were ruthlessly trampled by bigfoot.

Especially the one who attacked Zhang Xuan first, he was the worst to be stepped on, his chest had collapsed deeply, the broken bones pierced into his lungs, and with his breathing, blood spurted out of his mouth and nose, and the old man opened his mouth wide, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't breathe in the air, and there were constantly big feet, stepping on his broken body, every time it was heavy!

When he was dying, he saw a pond with flowers of four colors, and the pond was full of gold and silver...... He saw the legendary Elysium.

The old man grinned and died with a smile, he was satisfied, the misery of this life was over, and his next life could be expected......

However, not everyone can die calmly and happily like this old man, and for them, they will have to bear the consequences of attacking the court officials.

The carriage carrying the eunuchs in the palace hurriedly turned around and fled, and the two old eunuchs in civilian clothes, with sharp voices, urged to run...... There were also a few people from the government and many people sent by civil officials, who fled one after another, and people turned on their backs.

But he didn't run far before he was stopped.

The road to the capital has been blocked by Jinyi guards.

"Brothers, don't get me wrong, we are all our own people, and we are also from the palace...... Let us go! ”

The old eunuch handed over a big ingot, who knew that the brocade guard was like silver burning his hands, and threw it out violently!

"Lord Wang is here, you can't run!"

Hearing the three words of Lord Wang, the old eunuch raised his head in panic, and saw Wang Yue with a serious face, and he shouted, "Bitter! Then he fell straight up......
