I don't know what Zhang Fan is going on, maybe it's really because this matter is related to his two beloved women, so he lost his bearings, and he was completely confused for a while.

In other words, he didn't look anywhere, but he just stared at this "Tianning Temple", which made Liang Chao oppose Zhang Fan for the first time, and at the same time, he also felt that Zhang Fan's mistake this time was that he was incomplete, and he didn't mean to be humble to Shangguan at all.

It's not because Liang Chao believes in Buddhism or anything else, he never goes to see any Buddhist scriptures or anything like that on weekdays, even if he goes to the temple, most of them are because he accompanies other people, or he has something to do, but Liang Chao's family, his mother believes in Buddhism, and he still remembers that when he was a child, he was taken by his mother to the temple many times, and there are thousands of Buddhist temples in the entire capital, but Liang Chao knows that this "Tianning Temple" is the place where his mother takes him to the most, even if Liang Chao himself does not believe in Buddhism, and never read Buddhist scriptures or anything, but under such a close touch, even if he doesn't want to listen to it, he can't do it.

"Maybe ......" Although he didn't disbelieve Liang Chao's words, Zhang Fan was also a little bit of a bull's horn now, and he insisted in his heart that the problem was in this "Tianning Temple", "Maybe this 'Tianning Temple' is the problem now,"

Hearing that Zhang Fan still thought so, Liang Chao could only sigh again, and said helplessly: "My lord, this 'Tianning Temple' is one of the oldest temples in the capital, this is not a useless title, since the Northern Wei Dynasty, 'Tianning Temple' has gone through several dynasties of ups and downs, and even the name of the temple has changed several times, but it is not the place that the imperial court attaches the most importance to at that time, whether it is the Tang Dynasty, the Liao Dynasty, or the time when the Jin people ruled, this' Tianning Temple's all are one of the temples that the imperial court attaches the most importance to, so that to our Ming Dynasty, it is also the same, when Emperor Taizu opened the country and ascended the throne, this 'Tianning Temple' was even more war-torn, with the Jin Dynasty most of the capital will be in the midst of the war, but only the relics in the temple still exist.

"After the first emperor succeeded to the throne and moved the capital to Shuntianfu, he ordered to rebuild this temple, at that time it was still called 'Tianwang Temple', until the orthodox years when it was rebuilt again, it was renamed 'Tianning Temple', Zhengde and Jiajing also had a reconstruction, all of which were the will of the saints at that time,"

"This ......" Hearing Liang Chao's introduction, although Zhang Fan believed it, he still had a bit of a strong meaning, "but this doesn't mean ......"

"And ......" Without waiting for Zhang Fan to finish speaking, Liang Chao continued to speak, "Not only that, since I moved the capital to Shuntian and rebuilt the temple by Chengzu, almost every emperor will go to this temple to worship, not to mention that if there is a queen mother and a mother who believe in Buddhism in the palace, they will go more frequently. Tianning Temple's attention is a lot, even now, the queen mother of the two palaces in the palace and the host of the temple still have some connection, so the humble position will oppose the speculation of the adults, if there is any problem in other temples, the humble position will agree, but this 'Tianning Temple' wants to ask questions, it is really difficult,"

"Is it possible to ......" Obviously, Zhang Fan still refused to give up his guess, "There are a few black sheep monks in the 'Tianning Temple', swaggering and deceiving,"

"It's not impossible," Liang Chao heard Zhang Fan say this, but he didn't immediately refute it like just now, but frowned and said, "This matter will be investigated by people, and I will give an explanation to the adults when the time comes, but in the humble view, although this possibility exists, the probability is really small, after all, although the 'Tianning Temple' is not a royal temple, but my Ming Dynasty's management of monks is quite strict, not to mention the same' Tianning Temple's time-honored temple, the rules in the temple are even more numerous, and the scrutiny of monks is stricter than that of the imperial court, but if a few people have problems, it is still possible,"

Hearing Liang Chao answer himself like this, Zhang Fan's mood was also much better.

"Actually......" Liang Chao continued to speak, "My lord, please forgive me for the humble words, in the humble opinion, if the two ladies really encountered something swindling, it would be nothing, at most they were cheated of some money, besides, I listened to what the adults said before the humiliation, this amount is not much, the adults should not be so worried, besides, if there is really something wrong in this Tianning Temple, the adults will not have to worry about it, after all, it will not be other bad things,"

When Zhang Fan heard Liang Chao's words, he was naturally a lot more relieved, what was he worried about before, indeed, at the beginning, he knew about Yingyue and Zhaoxue, and when he didn't know anything, Zhang Fan was indeed worried, after all, he didn't know what the situation was, but just now, when he saw the name 'Tianning Temple', his worries were serious, why, because "Tianning Temple" is a Buddhist temple, but a place about religion.

Anything that is bad about religion is hardly a good thing.

At that time, Zhang Fan saw that it was related to religion and it was a Buddhist temple, and the first thing that came to his mind was the name "White Lotus Sect".

In the Ming Dynasty, everything that has anything to do with the three words "White Lotus Sect" is not a good thing, and at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang strictly forbade the spread of "White Lotus Sect" in the Central Plains, which is not unreasonable.

In fact, the "White Lotus Sect" was born from the Pure Land Sect of Buddhism, and it is said that the ancestor of the Pure Land Sect of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Shi Huiyuan recited Buddha together with Liu Zhimin and others in the Lushan Forest Temple and Liu Zhimin, so there is such a name as "White Lotus".

However, the early "White Lotus Sect" worshiped Amitabha Buddha, advocated chanting Buddha and keeping precepts, stipulating that Xintu did not kill, did not steal, did not commit adultery, did not lie, and did not drink, its teachings were simple and easy to understand, and were very accepted by the lower classes, and in the early days, when entering the Tang and Song dynasties, the imperial court did not prohibit its preaching, and even had the meaning of approval.

However, because the doctrine of the "White Lotus Sect" is in line with the aspirations of the lower classes, it is often used as a tool to organize the people to resist oppression.

In short, by the time of the Yuan Dynasty, the organization and doctrine of the White Lotus Sect had undergone tremendous changes, and there was no need to mention the laxity of the precepts, and there were many sects, some of them only believed in Buddhism, but only converted to Maitreya Buddha, and preached the religious proverb of "Maitreya is born", which belongs to the Pure Land method, but this kind of people who only pay attention to Buddhist thought are still a minority, and more people gather at night to disperse, gather people to make trouble, and even begin to rebel against the rule of the Yuan Dynasty.

And from that time on, the name of the White Lotus Sect was associated with the anti-imperial court.

The ban on the White Lotus Sect in the early Ming Dynasty was not that Zhu Yuanzhang or Zhu Di had the foresight to see the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect, but the fact was in front of them, during the Hongwu and Yongle periods, Sichuan, Hubei, Jiangxi, Lu and other places had many strange riots of the White Lotus Sect, and even worse, they were directly established as emperors, and most of them were suppressed, and so on until the middle of the Ming Dynasty, that is, at this time, the White Lotus Sect in the Ming Dynasty was complex, and the names were numerous, reaching dozens of kinds.

Zhang Fan, as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, in fact, if he hadn't deliberately avoided it, he would basically be able to see all kinds of news about the White Lotus Sect every day, which was really annoying, and by this time, the infiltration of the White Lotus Sect had already reached all levels of society.

Although even if the White Lotus Sect is a rebellion, it is also aimed at mobilizing the people who have been oppressed for a long time at the bottom, but their upper level is able to penetrate into all levels of society, Zhang Fan has seen that some people from the White Lotus Sect have been found out in large households and even in the palace, so now Zhang Fan sees the three words "Tianning Temple", although Tianning Temple is one of the most qualified temples, but if this situation occurs, it is not incomprehensible.

And Zhang Fan is worried that this matter will really have anything to do with the White Lotus Sect, if there is, this is a major event of rebellion against the imperial court, and no matter whether anyone will use this to deal with Zhang Fan at that time, maybe he can escape with his current relationship, but Yingyue and Zhaoxue He will definitely not be able to keep it.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the uprisings have continued, although they have been suppressed, but the court is also quite troubled by this, and there is no mercy for those who dare to resist the court.

Zhang Fan is worried about this, so he is so troubled.

Now, after Liang Chao's explanation, he is relieved, after all, although this "Tianning Temple" is not a royal temple, but it is also related to the palace, with the characteristics of the Ming Dynasty, like this kind of place, even if the emperors of several dynasties have connections with it, they will never relax their vigilance, and there must be investigations from time to time.

In this regard, Zhang Fan still believes that the imperial court's ability to investigate and collect evidence will definitely not be weak, so Zhang Fan is relieved.

It's just that......

"Will the monks of this 'Tianning Temple' also collect money for sesame oil like this," Zhang Fan asked.

"Not really," Liang Chao said, "but...... There are a lot of big families who go to them, and some of them are also very generous, but there are not many like the two ladies, besides, enter the Buddhist temple to enter the incense, give some sesame oil money, even if it is sincere, give more, but it is not a bad thing, I think there is no need to hide the meaning of the adults,"

"That means that there is still a problem here," Hearing Liang Chao say this, Zhang Fan's brows furrowed again,
