Chapter 46: The Great Writer and the Nun
The appearance of Cheng Huailiang solved the problem faced by Lao Li at once, and he killed very beautifully, winning the hearts of some people.
But the aftermath is very difficult to do, Lao Li pondered this matter before dawn, but he didn't figure out why.
"Lord Cai, what you said is not right, right? Are you bullying Mr. Fu for his old age? Cheng Huailiang sighed helplessly in his heart, glared at Hou Junji, Hou Junji directly ignored Cheng Huailiang, and looked like he didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement.
"Cheng Huailiang, since the beginning of the Zhenguan year, the politics have been harmonious, and the people you have killed over the years have not been as many as you killed in one day yesterday, don't you think what you have done, this is also an indirect smear of Your Majesty?"
Discredit?
There is indeed a suspicion of smearing, Lao Li is a Buddhist, and General Xianzong is also sealed by the emperor, and now General Xianzong makes a mistake, which is equivalent to the emperor's mistake, and it would be bad if someone else grabbed the handle.
Of course, this is Cheng Huailiang's idea, and as for Cai Wenhao's ultimate goal, it is to resolutely suppress Fu Yi and Cheng Huailiang.
"Since the two Jin Dynasty, the emperors have begun to believe in Buddhism, but in the end? The land annexation was serious, the land in the hands of the monks almost exceeded the clan lords, the national financial deficit was serious, the monks did not have to pay taxes, and the people actually chose to shave the ordination. Cheng Huailiang paused, "When the Sui Dynasty was first founded, the magnates and landlords did not pay taxes, and even they raised a group of Simao behind their backs, and the national tax revenue was less than 20%. Emperor Yang of Sui, the faint monarch in your mouth, what do you think he went to Jiangnan for? He was there to see how many temples there were in the country. ”
"Cheng Huailiang, when you talk about the emperor of the previous dynasty, do you look down on Your Majesty or the Tang Dynasty?" Cai Wenhao doesn't have many friends, Ouyang Tong is one, and now Ouyang Tong is dismissed because of this bastard, how can he not find a chance to arrange Cheng Huailiang?
"Cai Wenhao, when you arrange the emperor with the ancients one by one, why don't you say that you only have the ancients in your eyes, and there is no Your Majesty?" Cheng Huailiang glanced at Cai Wenhao.
"Use the past as a metaphor for the present, and set things right. This is the duty of the Imperial Historian. ”
"Yo, what Lord Cai means is that you imperial historians can talk about the ancients and the sages, and others can't?" Cheng Huailiang rubbed the ground with his feet, Cai Wenhao thought that Cheng Huailiang was going to be rough, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly took a few steps back, "The dirty thing that picks bones in the egg, let you say it above board." Cai Wenhao, there is a Hanshan Temple outside Jingzhou City, and there is a Kuyun monk in the Hanshan Temple, who is the illegitimate son of your uncle Cai Yungong, right? ”
"Cheng Huailiang, don't spew blood." Cai Wenhao's face turned white all of a sudden, and he stretched out his trembling hand and pointed at Cheng Huailiang resentfully.
The Manchu Dynasty Wenwu suddenly became interested, and everyone knew that Cai Yungong had no heirs, and all his skills were passed on to his nephew Cai Wenhao. But what Cheng Huailiang said is to be weighed, the time, place and characters are all said in an orderly manner, especially the Kuyun monk, isn't this name just a curse for Cai Yungong?
"Cai Wenhao, since you said that you don't go to court in advance, the master will tell you about this Kuyun monk."
It is human nature to like gossip news, especially Cai Yungong, who is about to be honored as a saint, actually did such a dirty thing, which made them look forward to it again and again.
Lao Li's face was slightly red, this bastard thing, the debate is just a short one. But...... Lao Li is also looking forward to what insider information a generation of writers can have.
Lao Guo pursed his lips and slapped Fu Yi's arm with his hand, "Old brother, the doll of the Cheng family can handle things properly for you." Wait for the doll of the Cheng family to finish scolding the imperial historian, and you can just say the result directly. ”
"Huairen, when did the Cheng family change sex?" Fu Yi spread unbelievable, and what really helped him was actually the son of Cheng Yanjin, whom he despised the most.
"Don't you know that it was the Cheng family's little bastard who opened the killing ring yesterday and destroyed the twelve temples?" Lao Guo asked very strangely.
"I heard about it, but I didn't believe it." Fu Yi's old face flushed.
"Cai Wenhao, the master told you quietly, don't make a noise. This Kuyun monk was born of your uncle's fornication with a nun. Speaking of this, Cheng Huailiang couldn't help laughing.
The civil and military officials were in an uproar.
"Cheng Huailiang, don't spew blood."
"I'll squirt you, what can you do with me?" Cheng Huailiang walked to the camp of the generals, snatched the wat board from the hands of the old hooligans, and shook it at Cai Wenhao, "The uncles of the generals have always been benevolent and righteous, pay attention to convincing people with reason and morality, and disdain you to do it." But the master can't do it, he can try not to be noisy with his hands, and if he beeps, the master will kill you. ”
Syllable!
Lao Li slapped the table, "The Cheng family's miscellaneous pieces, tell me about people." In exposing people's shortcomings, I will kill you first. ”
said this, but his heart was already happy, Lao Li, like everyone, was full of joy and wanted to hear Cheng Huailiang continue to tell the story.
"Your Majesty, the minister will talk about Hanshan Temple first. Hanshan Temple was originally a dilapidated temple that occupied a small area and the incense was not strong at all. Because of this bitter monk, a certain scholar went to mention a few poems, which made this temple completely popular. "Is what Cheng Huailiang said true? Of course not, he made it up, God knows if Cai Wenhao had an affair with a nun. However, in order to shut up Cai Wenhao immediately, Cheng Huailiang had no choice. But what Cheng Huailiang is going to say next is completely true.
The income of the temple does not belong to the state, Hanshan Temple began to use incense money, a large number of annexation of land, Hanshan Temple is getting bigger and bigger, as if it has become a tyrant in Jingzhou.
Monk fees, tuition fees, incense money, land rent, and usury became the source of income for Hanshan Temple. The usury mainly lent to the people, and the people could not pay the money, so they naturally had to sell their land and population, and most of the people were seriously in debt.
The most important thing is that after the news of the eighteen stick monks saving the King of Qin was spread, various places actually encouraged the temple to train the warrior monks, making it the temple's dead mission.
The monasteries grew larger and the number of private armies grew, and they became small local warlords, and the monks were exempt from the state conscription call and were not included in the state establishment.
"At present, the land area of Hanshan Temple has more than doubled the total area of the fiefdom of the young master and his future daughter-in-law." Cheng Huailiang clutched the wat board in his hand, "Cai Wenhao, what's the use of such a temple?" Is it used to bring disaster to the country and the people? ”
"This ......" Cai Wenhao stopped talking, after all, it involved his uncle, and he couldn't have any words to be caught by Cheng Huailiang.
"Speechless? Then shut up obediently for the master. Cheng Huailiang glanced at Cai Wenhao with disdain, "Also, immediately apologize to Mr. Fu." ”
"Why should I apologize?" Cai Wenhao looked down on Fu Yi in his heart, "He has an enmity with the Buddha, and what he has done in his life ......"
Syllable!
Cheng Huailiang stepped forward, and the wat board was directly slapped on Cai Wenhao's left face, and scarlet blood immediately flowed from the corners of Cai Wenhao's mouth, "Do you want me to say it a second time?" Apologize! ”
"This is the court, and you can't be wild."
Syllable!
The wat board was slapped on the right side of Cai Wenhao's face, and Cheng Huailiang's words were extremely cold, "Apologize!" ”
