"Sister-in-law Wei, go and prepare the car." Lu Xiyao lifted the curtain and came out, she wore plain clothes and light makeup, and there was an elegant and refined charm between her eyebrows and eyes.

The servant woman who called the sister-in-law answered the call, and when she was about to go out, she muttered, "The carriage is waiting outside the courtyard." His Royal Highness the King of Yue once instructed the eldest lady to pay more attention, and my sister is going out alone today, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. ”

"It's just to make a wish at Tanzhe Temple, we've been there many times, and it's okay to go here."

My mother and sister went to my aunt's house, and my father was the only one sitting alone in the backyard. Lu Xiyao wanted to say hello to her father in the backyard, but she heard her father's sigh coming from afar.

"Qianlou's wife said: 'Sweet the light taste of the world, the humble position of the world, not related to the poor, not to draw from the rich'."

Qian Lou was a famous hermit during the Warring States Period, repeatedly refused the invitation of the vassal states, has been reluctant to go out, his wife commented that he "regarded coarse tea and light rice as luscious food, content with a humble position, not sad for the poor, not busy with the pursuit of wealth", in a word, that is to be poor and happy!

At this moment, Lu Xi spoke of Qianlou, and his tone was calm, which showed that he had not let go of his resignation. Lu Xiyao hesitated for a moment when she heard this, turned around and walked out of the front yard, and called Sister-in-law Wei to get into the carriage together.

As soon as the carriage started, I saw a big car in the distance follow, and as soon as the curtain was lifted, a young young casual student waved to his sister-in-law, who was still exposed outside the curtain.

Sister-in-law Wei breathed a sigh of relief, "His Royal Highness King Yue sent several guards to secretly guard our house, and with them escorting us today, we don't have to worry about accidents." ”

"What's the accident?" Lu Xiyao responded indifferently, her mind had already flown to Tanzhe Temple in the western suburbs.

Tan Zhe Temple was founded in the first year of Yongjia in the Western Jin Dynasty, the original name was "Jiafu Temple", Tang Wu Zetian long live Tongtian years, Huayan monk Huayan came to Tan Zhe Temple to open and build a temple, hold the "Huayan Sutra" to be a pure industry, Tan Zhe Temple became the first temple in Youzhou to establish a sect, incense to flourish. During the Tang Huichang period, Tang Wuzong ordered the destruction of Buddhism throughout the country, and Tanzhe Temple was abandoned because of this. Five generations after the Tang Dynasty, the famous Zen monks from the real Zen master came to Tan Zhe Temple, renovated the temple, Tan Zhe Temple finally walked out of the shadow of "Wu Zong extinguished Buddha", and flourished again. After Yao Guangxiao, an important minister who assisted Ming Chengzu Zhu Di in "Jing Difficulty", became famous, he resigned and practiced in seclusion in Tanzhe Temple.

Starting from Taizu, most of the emperors and concubines of the Ming Dynasty believed in Buddhism, so the official appropriation, the Tanzhe Temple was renovated and expanded several times, the Xuande Emperor gave the name "Longquan Temple", orthodox four years, the orthodox emperor awarded the Tripitaka 5,000 volumes to the Tanzhe Temple, and later after the restoration of the Tianshun years the Tanzhe Temple was renamed "Jiafu Temple". But no matter how the official name is changed, the people have always followed the title of "Tanzhe Temple" and have never changed. In the Ming Dynasty, it was a window for foreign exchanges, and many foreigners came here to study Buddhism, the most famous of which are Japan's Muchu Deshi, East India's Devadas, and West India's Lian Gongda Monk.

Lu Xiyao got off the carriage half a mile away from Tanzhe Temple, the guard's carriage stopped a little farther away, and five plainclothes guards got out of the carriage and fixed there with full vigilance, carefully observing the situation in front of Tanzhe Temple.

As far as the eye can see, I saw countless good men and women getting off one after another, all of them looked sad, gathered together and walked slowly, and even more, several old women took a few steps per line, and then they bowed their heads to the ground, and their heads were banging, and they were pious, which was comparable to the believers of Tibetan Buddhism today.

The three religions of Confucianism in the Ming Dynasty enjoy an unparalleled lofty status in the minds of the world, therefore, the people who come to Tan Zhe Temple are soon infected by the solemn atmosphere, and gather up the common thoughts of weekdays, but the heart of the Buddha is saved, but there are uneducated obscene men mixed in the crowd, and they take pleasure in peeping and molesting ladies. Seeing that there were several pairs of lewd eyes sweeping around Lu Xiyao, Sister-in-law Wei ran to Lu Xiyao and almost half-hugged her into a group of middle-aged women.

"Oh ho!"

I don't know who shouted, followed by several shrill whistles. For a while, the women felt very uncomfortable, they were in the pure land of Buddhism, and it was inconvenient to scold those disciples, so they had no choice but to speed up their pace, in order to enter Tanzhe Temple as soon as possible to avoid harassment from outside.

"Ahh

Suddenly, I heard someone screaming, and the people behind didn't know what was happening in front of them, but when they saw several men in strong suits rushing wantonly in the crowd, the crowd was suddenly in chaos, and the screams were everywhere, and the women subconsciously turned around and ran towards their respective carriages.

Sister-in-law Wei was shocked, and hurriedly hugged Lu Xiyao and turned around and walked quickly to the side of the carriage, but the countless panicked people over there were already in chaos, and the five guards couldn't squeeze out of the crowd, and looked anxiously here, but after a while, they were swallowed up by the surging flow of people.

Lu Xiyao felt flustered at this time, and when she glanced back, she saw several men in strong suits approaching this side from different directions, all staring at her with unkind eyes.

Sister-in-law Wei noticed the abnormality, and didn't have time to think about it, so she pulled Lu Xiyao to follow behind a group of screaming women, and ran towards a dense forest on the right that could be hidden.

Hearing the chaotic footsteps behind her, Lu Xiyao finally realized that she was in danger, and the goal of those men in strong suits seemed to be very clear, that is, they were coming for themselves!

She didn't dare to imagine what the consequences would be if she fell into the hands of those evil men, so she could only grit her teeth and follow Sister-in-law Wei desperately, hoping to find a secret place to hide as soon as possible.

······

"There are eunuchs in the border army, eunuchs in the supervising army, and each battalion in the Beijing army has at least one left-behind internal officer, and now the elite division of the Ming Dynasty is all controlled by the eunuch party, so the eunuch party is not removed, and the country has no peace!" Kuang Yu, the secretary of the military department, held the tea cup in his hand and said in a deep voice.

Finally, some people are worried about the community! Zhu Qiming glanced at Kuang Yu deeply, and felt that Jin Lian asked him to see the two of them again, and the first one of them was Kuang Yu, which was undoubtedly a fortunate thing!

However, it is difficult for Kuang Yu to attribute the shortcomings of the Ming Dynasty to the chaos of the eunuchs. "Then, Xiao Wang can't help but ask, if all the internal officials are driven out of the barracks, and the Ming army, which has no internal officials' constraints, starts a war with Wara, what are the chances of victory?"

Kuang Yu was stunned in his seat, muttered for a long time, and finally did not say a word.

"The so-called view of the present should learn from the past, after the founding of the ancient emperors, the top priority is to stabilize the internal affairs, once the world is stable, only need to rest the army, rest and recuperate, less than ten years, the common people can live a prosperous life. However, after a long period of peace, it will become more and more serious, and then imagine that at the beginning of the country, it has become a very difficult thing to meet a strong enemy with the momentum of a rainbow! May I ask Lord Shangshu, how many of the hundred officials dare to speak out about the main battle? Xiao Wang thinks that at the moment of the great enemy, the biggest hidden danger of the Ming Dynasty is not the eunuch's pre-government, but the lack of internal affairs! ”
