Chapter 277: Lead by example and develop farming
The Bao brothers have done a lot of evil, petty theft, and molesting women from good families, and now they are cruel and cruel to animals in the mountains and forests, and their crimes are unforgivable.
Yu Wendi wants to kill the two as soon as possible, although no one is willing to intercede for the two, but such a thing as eating delicious food still can't be completely eliminated.
Even though the whole city is under martial law, there are people who are greedy and not afraid of abuse and punishment.
The major restaurants that collect wild meat, and the diners who record them, are all punished according to the severity of the offense, the beating that should be beaten, and the punishment that should be punished.
Xiao Mingyue thought that Buddhism is now all over Kyushu, and most people in the world believe in karma, so she thought of Master Kongzhu of Hanshan Temple.
After all, Master Kongzhu is a high-ranking monk, and if he is willing to help, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
Xiao Mingyue persuaded Yu Wendi, and the two made a special trip to Hanshan Temple to ask to see Master Kongzhu.
The master seemed to have been waiting for the two to come, sitting on the cushion in the meditation room, reciting Buddhist scriptures.
Seeing Xiao Mingyue and Yu Wendi coming, he couldn't help but smile.
"Disturb the master, we have something to ask for!" Xiao Mingyue saluted the empty bamboo, and then said.
"You don't have to be polite, the poor monks who can help will naturally help!"
Xiao Mingyue saw that Kongzhu was not surprised by his words, as if she had guessed her intention.
"Master, we want everyone in the world to have a heart of kindness and compassion, and we also ask the master to help and open an altar in the temple to chant sutras, so as to alert the world!" Xiao Mingyue said reverently.
"The reason why people in the world are people in the world is that all fetuses are short-sighted, and they can't control their own emotions and six desires! Therefore they often do evil and cruel things. Although the poor monks are willing to enlighten the world, those who are obsessed will always exist!" Kongzhu said while chanting the scriptures.
"Even if I can turn a person from evil to good, I want to try!"
So Hanshan Temple tried to meet for seven days, prepare fasting meals, give alms to the people, come to chant and pray for blessings, from dignitaries and dignitaries, to the rural people, there are 30,000 or 40,000 people, all lined up in a long line, praying inside and outside the temple to chant scriptures.
Master Kongzhu preached for seven days, and since seven days, Xiao Mingyue stayed in the temple to fast and bathe, chanting and praying for blessings every day, copying scriptures, from morning to night, never daring to slack off.
Master Kongzhu ordered the little monks in the temple to distribute scriptures to the people, all of which were hand-copied by Xiao Mingyue with the palace people day and night, and copied the entire 1,111 crosses of the "Liberation Sutra" seventy or eighty times, and the people also rushed to read it.
Then he sincerely repented in front of the Buddha, "I don't kill Beren, but Beren died because of me!"
Pray for the souls of those who died tragically.
After this prayer and the transmission of the Dharma, the people also became more and more disgusted with killing.
In addition, the princes and nobles changed the hunt three times a year to three times every two years to comfort all living beings.
For those who have abused and killed animals, they are either recorded by the official family, or they go to Hanshan Temple to sincerely repent.
As a result, countries have followed suit.
Metropolis Xiao Mingyue is the heart of a female bodhisattva who saves the world and saves people.
Dang Xiang and Chen Guo are comparable to the Northern Wei Dynasty, Rouran is a little controversial, the queen mother feels that Rouran has been a fighting nation on horseback since ancient times, drinking wine and eating meat, it is a tradition, and it is needless to say that the hunting three times a year is needless to say. Now that the royal palace nobles of various countries have expressed their sincerity, the queen mother only thinks that it is like a show.
"Before this, which one was not the southern expedition to the north, easy to slaughter and kill, now why Xiao Mingyue's girl said it, she learned from the old monks in the temple, and she had a bodhisattva heart? It's not an intrigue in secret, are you fighting for me? The Queen Mother said with some sarcasm.
"Although what the queen mother said is reasonable, but this is a good act after all, and the queen mother should agree, otherwise we are so different, I am afraid that we will be called a handle!" Guzhuo said.
Seeing that her sons were also standing on Xiao Mingyue's side, Wuyunna couldn't help frowning, she wanted to manage it but couldn't manage it.
"Since the king has already had an idea, and he is still discussing anything with me, the queen mother, you can do whatever you want!" After the queen mother finished speaking, she left with the support of the female official.
After the queen mother left, Gu Zhuo specially prepared a letter, and personally wrote a proposal that Rou Ran also recognized Xiao Mingyue's proposal to treat wild animals well, saying that he insisted on canceling all hunting within two years despite the opposition of the princes, ministers and the queen mother.
Even a fool can see that he is doing everything possible to curry favor with Xiao Mingyue.
However, the letter was sent to Xiao Mingyue, although he had always disliked Gu Zhuo, but when he was so enlightened and enlightened, Xiao Mingyue still wrote back to him.
For a time, almost all countries stopped hunting operations, and in the streets and alleys, in the countryside and mountains, anyone who saw wanton abuse and slaughter of animals went to the government to report it.
And the government also gave enough rewards.
Slaughter and cruelty to animals are severely punished.
Xiao Mingyue's proposal has paid off.
Master Kongzhu praised Xiao Mingyue and said: "The county lord is not only accumulating blessings for himself, but also accumulating blessings for the people of the world!" In this way, the people of the world will have an extra layer of good fortune!"
"Mingyue will never dare to take merit alone, most of it is the credit of Master Kongzhu!"
"The county lord is in the last resort, but he can still think about the people of the world and the society of the country, and he is the first blessed person in the world!" Master Kongzhu sighed.
Xiao Mingyue listened, and then asked Kongzhu, "Mingyue has a question, I believe that only Master Kongzhu can solve Mingyue's doubts." Although I have a great responsibility, but I can't do anything about my children's private affairs, I have been unable to help the master, at least two people have been disappointed, but I don't know if there is a fate in the next life? If there is still fate, isn't it still this fate?!"
Kongzhu smiled, "The county lord is too worried, everyone in the world should do a good job in this life, don't ask about the next life." Besides, the blessings of the county lord in this life are already inexhaustible, and in the next life, there is only a steady stream of blessings, where can there be any unsatisfactory things? Please relax!"
After saying that, he left on the pretext of going to Zen.
Leaving Xiao Mingyue looking at the free finches outside the window, she was very envious, "Although you are birds, you are free." And I, who am a human being, seem to be of noble birth and loved by everyone, but I can't help myself, where can I have your happiness!"
Winter goes to spring, and in a blink of an eye it is the season of spring planting.
The birds are singing and the trees are green.
The farmers smiled, picked up their plough sticks, and began to sow the seeds.
"This cotton seed should also be sown as soon as possible, so that you can have a good try!" Jia Sixian, the official in charge of the household department, said.
"Okay, in the next few days, I will take the land at the foot of Yanshan Mountain on the outskirts of the royal capital and sow seeds, and the land is fertile!" Yu Wendi said.
"Taishi, although the land is fertile, there is salt nearby. It's just that the light is insufficient, and I don't think it's the best choice!"
"Oh? Then what do you think, which piece of land is better, just let it out and grow cotton!" Yu Wendi asked.
Jia Siqian thought for a while, and then said: "Taishi, the minister thinks that not far from Yanshan, the two sides of Taihu Lake are the best choice, where the sun is abundant, and it occupies the advantage of water sources, it is the best place, but it is ...... It's just that there is a fruit tree forest planted for the royal family, although the annual yield is not very good, but without the permission of the Taishi and the emperor, the ministers and others dare not act rashly!"
Yu Wendi thought for a while, "Since it is not the first choice for fruit trees, if you move it, you can transplant fruit trees to other places." As for Lord Yijia's proposal, what does Your Majesty think? "
Where did the little emperor dare to say a word, even if Yuwendi asked him to say it, he didn't dare to say it if he was afraid, he just nodded and agreed.
Yu Wendi was very satisfied.
Second, Jia Siqian is also a well-known agronomist, who knows a lot about rice, flowers, fruit trees, etc.
It is also logical to become the primary person in charge of cotton planting.
Xiao Mingyue heard that there was such an agronomist, so she went to Taihu Lake to have a look.
Unexpectedly, Lord Jia Siqian had no shelf, he was wearing coarse cloth clothes, holding cotton seeds in his hands, and led people to take the initiative to plant cotton.
"Lord Jia!"
Jia Siqian hurriedly clapped his hands and stepped forward.
"I've seen the county lord!"
"Lord Jia, don't be polite! I didn't expect there to be an adult like you here who knows how to agronomy and has fun with the people, which is really a blessing for the people!"
"Interest, interest! The county lord has won the prize!"
"In my opinion, can this land be able to grow cotton?" Xiao Mingyue asked.
Jia Siqian said confidently: "The county lord can rest assured, although this piece is not effective for planting fruit trees, but it is suitable for planting cotton, and I believe that in autumn, it will be effective!"
Xiao Mingyue saw that the farmers were sowing seeds with plough sticks in their hands, and couldn't help asking: With such a cultivation method, sowing seeds is fast enough!"
A farmer said, "Don't hide it from the county lord, this plough stick is very slow, and if you want to cultivate an acre of land, it will take at least ten strong men at least ten days!"
Xiao Mingyue nodded when she heard this, "Since this is the case, presumably all countries use such old plough sticks, which must be rectified and rectified!"
Then he discussed with Jia Siqian to make a more time-saving and labor-saving ploughstick.
Here, the Northern Wei Dynasty began to grow cotton, and on the other side, Chen Guo also began to try to grow rice.
"We must not lose to the Wei people!" Chen Xian instructed the people in the household department who were involved in farming.
"Your Majesty, that Jia Siqian is a genius in agriculture! Now we have planted our cotton in the land where fruit trees are planted in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and it seems that we are going to do something! Tobe Shangshu said.
"Even if we don't have Jia Sixian, we can still grow millet well!" Mrs. Lu said.
"Since Taifu is so confident, then Taifu will supervise it and be in charge of this matter together with Hubu Shangshu!"
"The old minister obeys!"
"Obey the order!"
Seeing the sprinkler truck on the street, Xiao Mingyue thought that it would be better to add wheels on both sides of the plough stick, and a few more plough knives on the lower side, so that if the land is hard, it will not hurt!"
Then a rough sketch was drawn and told the craftsmen to follow it.
After it was done, the palace people were puzzled, "What a good county lord, how did you start the plowman?" "
Xiao Mingyue asked someone to send it to Jia Siqian to see, and asked the farmer to try it, which was really time-saving and labor-saving than before.
For a time, this kind of ploughstick began to be widely used in various countries.
