"Strange injustices through the ages, framing Confucianism. Repentance was not at the beginning, the Buddha knew. ”

More than ten years later, when the monk Yongxin passed away with infamy, he wrote these four verses with hatred in the thatched thatched hut with wind leaking on all sides and a broken lamp, which can be regarded as a summary of his life.

has been scolded by scholars all over the world for more than ten years, and bears the big title of a famous sinner, if he knew that he would fall into this step of the field, he would not have given Li Zicheng such an idea when he was killed.

"King Chuang, in order to strengthen the body and take care of the family, the monks of our temple have to practice their fists and feet, and exercise their blades, so it is inevitable that there will be injuries. In addition to preparing medicine for the treatment of wounds, the monks found that the keel produced in the area of Zhangde Province was the best used to stop bleeding, and the monks found that the characters on it were the best of the best. The little monk was curious for a while, and he once looked for it. ”

These so-called keels, in fact, are the belly armor of the turtle and the shoulder blade of the cow, in the production area of Zhangde Mansion, which is now the south bank of the Huan River in Xiaotun Village, Anyang County, Henan Province, the villagers excavated some tortoiseshell animal bone fragments in the soil layer when farming, most of which are engraved with difficult to distinguish sentences. The farmers who inadvertently brought them back to light sold the bones as medicinal herbs to pharmacies. Then he went to the eyes of the Yongxin monk.

Soon, these tortoise shells and cow bones with similar words on them became the abbot of Yongxin to play with the objects, after a period of appreciation, suddenly I realized that this mysterious antiquity, how can it not become a tool for collecting money?

So, under the ingenious design of Master Yongxin and his team. This tortoise shell and animal bones full of font and drawing symbols were given a very imposing name, dragon bone inscription. It is specially used to fool those good men and women who come to the temple to ask for fortune, of course, it also depends on the situation of alms and the number written in the fate book.

The world is chaotic, and countless people are in danger. When people are uncertain about their own future and destiny, they pin their hopes on mysterious forces. This dragon bone inscription happened to come into being.

For a time, it brought a lot of money to the abbot of Yongxin, and almost all the fertile fields in Dengfeng County were bought by the good believers who came to give alms to his temple.

It is also in order to be able to better adapt to the development of the shape shì, Yongxin also dived into these keels carefully, and compiled a booklet of the dragon bone inscription exam, which was distributed to his disciples and deacon's confidant monks.

According to the idea of the abbot of Yongxin. Those jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, rare books, books and other things. It's a hammer deal, and when it's sold, it's gone. "It's better to send someone to Zhangde quietly and get some grain and silver. There a large number of keels were acquired and purchased. And then. It was sold to a Nanban merchant. Just tell them, this is an ancient relic! It was preserved ten thousand years ago. ”

This method is more indiscriminate than the indiscriminate construction of Hao Shaoqi and others. Just loot all the rich families and well-off families in the towns and towns of Chengchi County, and take the goods in exchange for buying all the things that the rebels need, it seems much more appropriate, at least it will not offend everyone.

However, the previous method of digging up graves and digging graves in the mountainous areas of western Henan to raise military salaries is very inferior compared with the construction of Yongxin monks, and it is detrimental to Yin Luan.

After listening to the construction of the Yongxin monk, Li Zicheng couldn't help but be very proud of his practice of accepting scholars after entering Henan, "Scholars are different, whether he is a monk or a hooligan, at least he is educated!" ”

Niu Jinxing, Li Yan and other scholars from the right path were noncommittal about the construction of the Yongxin monk, but Song Xiance, another scholar in the camp, was a little unhappy, and from Li Zicheng's expression, he obviously felt the crisis. He even began to suspect that this great monk wearing a robe who recited the Buddha's name was a fellow believer in the rivers and lakes. Otherwise, how could there be such means and routines?

Over there, Monk Yongxin was chatting proudly with the doctor Shang Jiong, when suddenly a flower appeared in front of him, and a face similar to that of an ape appeared on the edge of Yongxin's table.

But by getting up and persuading him to drink, Song Xiance came to Yongxin's wine table.

"Senior Brother Abbot, ligature?" After Song Xiance had a drink with Yongxin, he showed him the bottom of the bright wine glass, and threw out such a sentence violently.

This is a black word in the spring of the rivers and lakes, when the people in the rivers and lakes meet someone who is suspected of being a colleague, they use such words to cross-talk.

"Master Song, yes, let's write side by side." Monk Yongxin's face remained unchanged, and he covered his facial features by the swaying of the lamp.

I see! Song Xiance's mind was spinning rapidly, and he decided to further talk about this monk, and then decide whether to win him over and become his ally, or find a way to get rid of him.

"Take the head first, and soon fill the gourd, and when you finish filling the gourd, come to me and drink the leaves. Let's talk about the head of the store. ”

("Drink first, and soon the feast will be over, and then come to me for tea.") Let's talk about how to get the money. ）

"Ligature, pointed group?" (Friend, real or fake?) ）

"Senior brother, of course it's pointy!" (Brother, of course it's true!) ）

A few years later, when the Nanzhong merchants who had purchased a large number of dragon bones revealed the consequences of this incident, Abbot Yongxin and Song Xiance Song Junshi, who had thought that they had met a stupid sheep with many people, were dumbfounded.

"The so-called three generations of prosperity do not exist zài! Please take a look at the original appearance of the three generations according to the dragon bone inscription provided by Elder Yongxin! ”

"What are the three generations? Sue sù you a real three generations! ”

The headlines with the main purpose of attracting attention have appeared vigorously in the supplements of daily, weekly, and business newspapers all over Jiangnan, and a large number of beautifully printed books and periodicals are placed in bookstores everywhere.

Although these books were soon boycotted by Jiangnan Shilin, and after being bought in large quantities, they were burned with a fire, and they were ridiculed as false and heretical hats, but the psychological shock brought by this statement to Jiangnan readers was huge.

It turned out that the so-called Yao Shunyu era was not a prosperous era.

Even the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period are not as good, but there are still bamboo slips in that era. And the Yao Shunyu era can only be engraved on tortoise shells and animal bones. In addition to divination of good fortune and evil fortune on a certain day and day, sacrifices (how many people, cows, sheep, dogs and other livestock to be killed), conquest, hunting, and the abundance and arrears of the year, there are also divination weather, wind and rain, travel, childbirth, children, diseases, and so on. Most of them are records of divination by the royal family of Yin Shang. The people of the Shang Dynasty were superstitious about ghosts and gods, and they had to ask about big and small things, some of the content of divination was the weather and rain, some were agricultural harvests, and some were sick and begging for children, and hunting, fighting, sacrificing and other major events were to wantonly kill captives and slaves as tribute to the heavens.

Didn't Prime Minister Zhuge replace the human head with steamed buns on the edge of Lushui when he went south? How can he claim to be a virtuous monarch and saint lord of three generations of prosperous times, how can he still be so savage?

The temple in the minds of many readers has collapsed. Countless people wept in the middle of the night. In a fit of rage, he rushed to the bookstore that sold these banned books in private, and burned the store to the ground.

Still, these things. In February and March of the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, Master Yongxin and Song Xiance did not know. They just saw the keel that was sent to exchange grain for five catties of keel at the price of one pound of grain. was bought by those Nanban merchants who exchanged one pound of keel for five pounds of salt, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice in their hearts, such huge profits were no worse than plundering states and counties......

In February. For Chongzhen, he didn't know how to face this complicated situation.

First of all, in the first month, Li Zicheng broke through Luoyang and killed his own uncle King Fu, and there were rumors that King Fu was unwilling to contribute money to reward the three armies and went to the city to die, forcing Chongzhen Mai Mangshoee to go to the temple to cry to the ancestors. Then, in February, it was reported that Li Zicheng took advantage of the victory to pursue, and went to Kaifeng City with a victorious army, ready to make persistent efforts to break through a famous city again and kill a Ming prince.

Facing the city of Kaifeng, which was five feet thick, the peasant army used cave carts to cover the Funiu Mountain miners to carry out earthwork on the city wall, preparing to dig holes in the city wall and either fill it with gunpowder and let it out, or dig out the rammed earth inside the city wall and hollow out the city wall, and then use ropes to pull down the earth pillars left for support, causing the city wall to collapse. I don't want to become a patrolman who ends up like Wang Yinchang, and the high-ranking governor leads the soldiers and civilians in the city to defend the city. And Zhu Gongfang, the king of Zhou in the city, did not want to become the second pot of Fu Lu soup, so he took out one million taels of treasury gold, recruited strong men to kill the enemy, and took out the grain and rice stored in the palace to make rice to feed the army.

The most important thing is that at this time, the Kaifeng officials and generals have temporarily put away their hearts to make a fortune, and they dare not deduct and float these military salaries and grains too much. Only then did he barely hold Kaifeng.

The Henan deputy general Chen Yongfu and his son fought behind the city, killing 2,000 rebels, and Li Xianfeng rescued the guerrilla Gao Qianchi and killed 700 rebels. Chen De, the son of Chen Yongfu, shot Li Zicheng with a bronze-tired iron-arm bow and arrow, but unfortunately the range was too far, and he barely hit it. Li Zicheng's army then retreated to Mi County. Kaifeng lifted.

Press the gourd to float the scoop.

Just now there was news that Li Zicheng had withdrawn from Kaifeng, which made Chongzhen breathe a sigh of relief for the time being, and bad news about Zhang Xianzhong came one after another.

First, on the fifteenth day of the first month, that is, the day Li Zicheng broke through Luoyang, the official army pursued Zhang Xianzhong to Kaixian. Yang Sichang led the army to Yunyang, and the rest of the generals went to Huangling City, Kaixian County. The general army is as fierce as a tiger, and the general Liu Shijie faces the battle. Liu Shijie led the army deep into the battle formation and was invincible. Zhang Xianzhong climbed high and saw the banner of the Qin people, while Zuo Liangyu's army had no fighting spirit. It is a strong man who sneaks in the valley and gallops down with a tall shout. Zuo Liangyu's soldiers were defeated first, Liu Shijie and the guerrilla Guo Kai, and the son of the fierce tiger Meng Xianjie were all killed, and only the fierce tiger broke through and escaped.

Then, on the fifth day of the first month of February, Zhang Xianzhong conquered Xiangyang City. At that time, Yang Sichang took Xiangyang as the military government, and hundreds of thousands of salaries and armor were gathered in the city. Each door is defended by a lieutenant. After Zhang Xianzhong left Sichuan, he galloped 300 miles in one day and night, killed Yang Sichang's envoy on the road, took his military talisman, and entered Xiangyang City with twenty-eight horses. When the fire broke out in the middle of the night, the inhabitants saw the fire and thought that the city was full of thieves, so they seized the gate and went out of the city, and the city collapsed. Zhang Xianzhong held Wang Yiming in Nancheng Tower and said: "I want to borrow the king's head to make Yang Sichang trap the feudal law." "Zhu Yiming, the king of Xiang, and Zhu Changfa, the king of Guiyang, were both killed.

In less than a month, the Ming Dynasty lost two important towns successively, and the two princes were killed by the Liukou, which was undoubtedly a huge blow to Chongzhen and the Manchu Dynasty.

In the face of Chongzhen's anger and roar in the court, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty all looked at their noses, noses, mouths, mouths and mouths, and asked their hearts, just like the clay carvings and wood sculptures in the Yasai Temple. Silent.

Just kidding, who doesn't know that the emperor in front of him has reached a point where he is in a hurry, even mad, in order to exterminate the thieves as soon as possible and sweep away the rebellion in Liaodong.

In order to be able to achieve this goal, the governors everywhere, regardless of whether you are a thief, the prime minister or the president, as long as the thief is unfavorable or defeated. All of them were dismissed and sent to prison. If it's a bit of a cut, that's fine. The key is that in addition to bullying the weak and fearing the hard, the emperor in front of him is even more eccentric.

It's also a lost battle, and the superintendent is it. And a holy decree was given. You will be asked to enter Beijing by the Jinyi Banner School. However, military leaders such as Zuo Liangyu and He Renlong have been afraid of the enemy like tigers many times. Escaping from the battlefield and looting the state and county are not guilty of the slightest crime, at most they will issue a few reprimands.

In addition to bullying the civilian officials for not having soldiers and horses in their hands, what made the officials of the DPRK and China more dissatisfied was the emperor's eccentricity.

Zheng Chongjian, the governor of the trilateral military affairs of Shaanxi Province with the right attendant of the military department, Zhang Xianzhong rebelled that day, and the supervisor Yang Sichang was not enough to suppress the thieves in Sichuan, so he transferred his Qin army to Sichuan to suppress it, and after defeating Zhang Xianzhong in Agate Mountain, Zheng Chongjian withdrew his troops back to Shaanxi, and the mustard was buried between the two. In October, when Li Zicheng entered Henan, Yang Sichang, in order to shirk his responsibility, went to the imperial court, accusing Zheng Chongjian of not withdrawing his troops back to Shaanxi, or even withdrawing from the siege, and put the black pot that let Li Zicheng out of Shennongjia Mountain firmly buckle Zheng Chongjian's head. He was stripped of his official position a few years ago and is waiting to be disposed of.

Is this still the system for treating court officials? Did this throw the dignity of the court officials to the state of Java?

The emperor ordered Wang Dehua to go to the south to announce the decree, and ordered him to lead his troops north to serve in front of the Liaodong army, and disappeared as soon as he went.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were all mentally ready to see how the emperor would deal with this Li Shouhan and Lord Li, who had always been a model of public loyalty to the country in the emperor's mouth.

There was a dead silence above the court, quiet like a thousand-year-old tomb, Chongzhen sighed, knowing that today's court discussion would not have any results, and was about to announce the dissolution of the dynasty, and when he continued to fast in the palace to ask the ancestral gods, a little eunuch who was standing outside the main hall quietly appeared at the side door, and glanced at Wang Chengen, the eunuch of Bingbi who was standing beside the emperor with a whisk in his hand, and the prince immediately understood.

"You monkey cub, why did you call our family out? If there is nothing important, you carefully watch out for the bamboo sticks of the Criminal Division! ”

Wang Chengen threatened the little eunuch with a sentence in his mouth, and the bamboo sticks of the Shen Criminal Division were filled with mercury, and even those who were beaten with iron and steel could not eat it.

"Father-in-law, if there is no urgent matter, even if you kill the slave and maid, you will not dare to disturb you at this time! The prince is back! Sue you, just now someone Pegasus came from Tianjin to deliver a letter, and the prince has landed in Nigu and is coming to Beijing! ”

"Accompanying the princess and princess, there is also Uncle Li's eldest lady, escorting two years' worth of money and food and countless armor staff and weapons! What's even worse is that the prince came back this time and captured King Talong of the Mangying family in Myanmar and entered Beijing to offer his prisoners! ”

"In addition to these, there are countless overseas exotic beasts to offer! The most precious of them is said to be a pair of ancient beasts, called the White Tiger! ”

"When the slave and maid knew about this, they immediately didn't dare to touch the ground and reported to your father-in-law, so that you could be prepared."

The little eunuch's face was full of loyalty, and he showed his merits to Wang Chengen.

Although Wang Dehua and Wang Chengen are both eunuch leaders and eunuch leaders, they have the same attitude towards dealing with those Donglin and Qingliu imperial histories, but if you say that their internal unity is like an iron plate, this, don't say that your friends who read the book don't believe it, even Wang Dehua and Wang Chengen themselves don't believe it.

Just half a month ago, Wang Dehua ordered his henchman to send the seal of the report to the Beijing Division, and along the way, he presented all kinds of new fruits and rare lychees, mangosteens, rambutans and other things to the emperor, and also sold them in the capital, and sold them in the capital on a large scale, and sold them at the price of eight taels of lychees and one silver dollar.

In the first month of the year, the noble ministers from all over the country want to move around each other, and the time to eat spring wine is at the same time, which makes the whole city shake for a while. It seems that if you don't write a sentence on the big red clay gold post for a treat, the words "There are good fruits in the south, and I want to reward them with Mr.", I am embarrassed to send out a treat.

Such a lucrative business, he Wang Dehua never mentioned a word in his letter. If it weren't for Zheng Zhilong, the general soldier of Fujian who accompanied him into Beijing, to fight for righteousness and give a share of a boatload to Wang Chengen, I am afraid that Wang Chengen would not be able to settle the eunuchs under his command.

Such an ugly appearance naturally made Wang Chengen dissatisfied, and his henchmen were even more agitated, ready to start a war against Wang Dehua and his family, but were strongly suppressed by Wang Chengen.

Now, Wang Dehua has returned with such a huge achievement, just when the imperial court is overwhelmed by the rogues in the hinterland of the Central Plains, and the imperial court needs a victory to boost morale and refresh people's hearts!

"Your Majesty! Let's retreat slowly! The slave has just received the latest news here! Uncle Ning Yuanbo Li has the paperwork and money and food, and he is already connected and transferred in the mud! (To be continued......)
