Eight hundred cavalry patrol standard camp knights, wearing bright light armor, straddling tall Qinghai horses, holding eight spears, left sabre and right bow and arrow, fish into the city.

This momentum shocked the people in Gangneung City.

Although it is now the time of the catastrophe, Jiangling is an important town in Jinghu after all, if it were not for the fact that Jiangling has been occupied by Xiao Milling in recent years, which has affected Jiangling, Jiangling will definitely become an important town in the world like Guangling and Chengdu. However, in recent years, under the rule of Xiao Mian, the development of Jiangling has stagnated, and it no longer has the status of a commercial center on the Yangtze River, and it is even inferior to the development of Xiangyang and Nanyang in the north.

Fortunately, now Gangneung City has finally returned to the embrace of the imperial court.

Although there were many officials, scholars, and powerful landlords under the small court of Southern Liang gathered in Jiangling City, they were not afraid of famine and hunger, but they were afraid of instability.

Now that the situation in Jinghu has finally stabilized, they are finally at ease.

But today I was still very frightened to see the cavalry of the 800 Governor's Standard Battalion entering the city.

"Isn't something happening again?"

"What can happen, I didn't see the notice of the previous governor, now everything is based on stability and disaster relief, and the imperial court will also use work for relief, organize the victims to dig the river and repair the embankment, and say that when the river is dredged and the embankment is repaired, there will be no more ten years and nine floods."

"It's not that simple!"

With Qin Qiong's 800 bids riding into the city, Jiangling City did start to jump, but it had no impact on most people, mainly for the officials and monks of the original Jiangling court in the city.

One after another Buddhist temples were sealed, according to the imperial court system, when a monk has to have a degree, and the degree has a limit on the number, and even has to pass the imperial court examination, if the results are not good, it is not pious enough, then it is not qualified to continue to be a monk, you have to forcibly return to the world, if you are younger, you even have to forcibly marry.

As for the temple land of the Buddhist temple, it is natural that it will be confiscated.

Some monks are dissatisfied, and some temples are even openly armed against each other, but no matter how powerful the monks are, can they pass through Qin Qiong's patrol standard horse?

This is the elite of a hundred battles that the emperor specially pulled out of the forbidden army of Beiya when he left Beijing.

Almost three times five divided by two, the hairless bald donkeys who dared to resist the court all fell, but fortunately, the forbidden army did not kill them, but only beat their noses and faces were swollen, and then they were all tied up and thrown into the river to dig the river for labor reform.

The monks were defeated and arrested, and then the commander of the five major and three rough capitals looked at this temple in the city, which covered an extremely large area, and said with a smile, "I think this place is good as a temporary yamen of the capital water supervisor, so I will give it to the capital water supervisor." ”

In one day, the 800 patrol cavalry divided the road and directly swept away the 138 Buddhist temples and 47 Taoist temples in the city, regardless of whether you are big or small, anyway, the laws of Daqin stipulate that no matter Buddhism and Taoism, no temple or temple is allowed to be set up in the city and village.

In short, you have to practice, no matter if you practice Buddhism and Taoism, as long as you don't engage in heresy, the imperial court will allow it, the premise is that you must first pass the examination to obtain the degree, and then pass the review and approval of the local government, in short, it is not easy to be a monk and Taoist priest in Daqin, and it is easy and comfortable to be a monk and Taoist, and it is even more impossible, you can only be a penance.

In particular, you are not allowed to leave the temple, let alone enter and leave the villages in Chengchifang City.

It is precisely because of these strict regulations that the number of monks and Taoists in other parts of Daqin has been greatly reduced, after all, there are still few truly devout people, and even fewer are willing to devote themselves to penance.

Sunrise Grain No.

The shopkeeper stands at the door today to see the excitement, they are diagonally opposite is a big temple, usually there are hundreds of monks inside, the temple is hundreds of pure people (slaves), in the past, Xiao Milling often came to this temple to worship the Buddha, although Xiao Milling is not as good as Emperor Wu of Liang, but his attitude also did make the Jiangling City once prosperous Buddhism, especially after the reform of Buddhism in Daqin, many monks have run to Jiangling.

Usually, the monks in the temple are very arrogant, and the shopkeeper has to be polite when he sees them.

But today, they were arrested one by one with blue noses and swollen faces, and the temple was sealed.

"You're the treasurer of the Sunrise Grain?"

Suddenly, a governor in armor came to him and asked him, beside him, there was also a man in a soap coat, and the shopkeeper knew this servant, all of whom were people on the street.

"The little old man is the shopkeeper of the Sunrise!" The shopkeeper hurriedly responded.

The standard rider handed him an official document.

"According to the order of the Qin Minister, all grain stores in Jiangling City must truthfully declare the amount of grain stored to the governor's yamen within three days, and may indicate the types and quantities of various grains. Moreover, from now on, all grain stores in the city need to implement the grain sales price promulgated by the governor's yamen, and the price shall not be adjusted privately, let alone closed for sale! ”

"If you violate, you will bear the consequences!"

The shopkeeper held the official paper, and his face couldn't help frowning into a bitter chrysanthemum.

"The price of this grain is set by the governor's yamen?"

"That's right, sell at a flat price, while supplies last!"

"The price? Fifty dollars for rice, thirty dollars for rice? Then I'll have to lose it to my mother's belly. "The shopkeeper is complaining, now at this time, there is a great famine in Jinghu, and this food is life. It's even worth more than gold, and you say that a bucket is only sold for fifty dollars?

"Don't pretend to me, do you think Prime Minister Qin doesn't know how much your grain will cost? You are last year's old grain, or even the old grain of the year before last, there was no big hunger at that time, your purchase price did not exceed 25 yuan, and now you are asked to double the sale, what do you call it bitter? ”

The shopkeeper is not willing, now the worst rice in his store is sold for two hundred wen a bucket, which he still sells in limited quantities every day, just waiting for the back to continue to rise, and now let it sell for fifty, that is a big loss. It's true that his rice is old rice, and it's not wrong that the purchase price is low, but now it's a loss to make less money.

The patrol rider didn't bother to pay attention to him, "The official document has been delivered, and it is your business to comply with it or not." ”

The patrol rode away, and the official reminded the shopkeeper in a low voice, "Lao Liu, at this time, you should be more leisurely, not to mention that you just make less money, it is really a loss, and even if you give it away, you have nothing to say." Don't lose a big deal because of a small thing! ”

The official was gone.

The shopkeeper returned to the shop, his face as black as charcoal.

"Damn, this is cutting my flesh with a knife, I do business, and I don't force me to buy and sell, how much do you care how much I sell?"

"Shopkeeper?" A few guys came around.

"The door is closed, and there is no business."

The guy said worriedly, "But the patrol just now?" ”

"Fuck it, I don't believe it, there are so many grain shops in the city, they really have the ability to do this?"

The guys had no choice but to close the gatehouse piece by piece, and the grain shop was closed.

Over there, the governor had just finished pasting a seal on the temple gate, and saw that the grain store was closed in broad daylight.

"Hey, this is a crime against the wind?"

"Qian Laosi, I asked you to send an official document just now, did this one send it?"

"I sent it, handed it over to the shopkeeper in person, and complained to me about what the price would lose to my mother's belly."

"Now that the notice has arrived, and you dare to do so, it is deliberately against the imperial court, come on, seal up this grain store, arrest the shopkeeper of this house, and by the way, check the owner behind it, and arrest it together!" The head of the patrol cavalry was very unceremonious, and ordered the shop to be closed and arrested.

Extraordinary moments, use extraordinary means!
