Chapter 426: A private visit to the microserver
Cheng Yue returned to the mansion and asked Mrs. Song to call Guan Gao to the study. As soon as Guan Gao entered the door, Cheng Yue asked her about the details of the Lotus Temple.
Guan Gao is now in charge of Cheng Yue's spy in Dadu, and after thinking about it, he thought about it and said: "The official has asked people to inquire before, and he will report to the concubine in the morning. The Lotus Temple was built for only ten years, located in the north of the city Lotus Mountain, the mountain is named after the temple. Its temple is very large, there are more than 3,000 lamas and disciples, and the presiding officer is a lama named Gyala Hubal. Legend has it that he has great magical powers, can pass through yin and yang, and practice the way of ghosts and gods. The concubine learned that this time the monk had a close relationship with the president of the Buddha's religion, Jamyang Lalezhi, and Ba Si Ba also benefited a lot from him......
Cheng Yue twitched his eyebrows and blurted out: "Jiamuyang Lalezhi? ”
Guan Gao was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, it is indeed this person, does the official have anything to ask?" ”
Cheng Yue frowned slightly, waved his hand, and said, "You go on first." ”
Guan Gao continued: "Yes, although Jiale Bale is sanctimonious on the surface, this person has many doubts. In recent years, there are often legends that there are women who enter the temple to incense and then disappear, and the temple only says that they have never seen it, and the government ignores it. But since the officials said that they would be bad for the lama, no woman has disappeared again. Also, a number of female corpses have been found in the mountain behind the Lotus Temple, which seems to have fallen into the valley in order to escape and died. In addition, the concubine also learned a piece of news. In the market near the capital, there are occasionally monks disguised as ordinary people to buy a large number of women's clothes and fat powder, which is extremely unusual. The relevant report, the concubine immediately brought it to the official. ”
When Cheng Yue heard this, he sighed and said, "Sure enough, it was as I expected." Daogao. What do you think? ”
Guan Gao said firmly: "Official." What the concubine thinks is what the official thinks. ”
Cheng Yue nodded. Said: "This temple must be eradicated!" ”
Guan Gao said worriedly: "Officials, the Red Sect has the so-called double cultivation path, aren't the officials afraid that they will deny it?" ”
Cheng Yue sneered and said, "I don't care what they say, I only do what I have to do." ”
Guan Gao said: "This matter is very involved, should the officials wait?" At least get the family affair done first. Before the big wedding, there was a killing spree, and they were all lamas, would the Great Khan have some taboos in his heart? ”
Cheng Yue pondered for a moment. "Let me think about it again, you don't say it to anyone." ”
Guan Gao said: "Yes, the concubine knows." ”
Cheng Yue hugged her into his arms and said, "I'm going to kill a lot of lamas, you won't blame me, right?" ”
Guan Gao snuggled in his arms and said, "Although the officials let it go, these lamas are simply demon incarnations, how can they have the slightest compassion of monks?" Thanks to the presence of officials in the world, otherwise I don't know how many women would have met with bad luck. ”
Cheng Yue smiled. kissed gently on Guan Gao's lips, and said in a tone of voice: "Obey the orders of the lady!" ”
The Jamyang Lalezhi mentioned by Guan Gao just now is notorious in history. This person is greedy, vicious, lustful, and shameless, and is a representative figure of lamas. One of the most famous things he did was to bribe Sange, who succeeded Ahma, with a large amount of money, to serve in Jiangnan. Immediately after arriving, he dug up the tombs of the emperors of the Southern Song Dynasty, plundered the treasures that accompanied the burial, and made a wine cup out of the skull of Li Zong.
Digging the emperor's tomb to get a large number of treasures, Jamyang Lalezhi immediately became addicted, as long as he could find the tombs of celebrities and rich people were all dug up by him, and wantonly bribes, recruiting beautiful women, and doing all the bad things.
Since Cheng Yue entered the capital, the General System Institute has disappeared from the court, and only said that he was practicing Buddhism, but everyone knew that he was hiding from Cheng Yue. Whether it is Basiba, or the future minister Sang Ge, and this Jiamuyang Lalezhi, Cheng Yue has never seen it.
In a blink of an eye, on the ninth day of the first lunar month, early in the morning, Nanbi took the carriage sent by Cheng Yue out of the palace to the north and went to the Lotus Temple. Kublai Khan didn't go with him, probably because he didn't think he looked good.
Cheng Yue asked Zhang Shufang to find out the hood he had used when he was in Changzhou and put it on carefully. Zhang Shufang took the mirror to Cheng Yue, and the more she looked at it, the more she loved it, she couldn't help but kiss Cheng Yue on the face, and said coquettishly: "The official is also very good-looking." ”
Cheng Yue smiled slightly and kissed her. Carrying pistols and bullets, he called Xiao Zhen, Ma Fu and Uner, selected another twenty guards, and ordered them to change into civilian clothes.
Except for Cheng Yue, everyone has short hair, so they all take off their hats and wrap their heads with black cloth, which looks very fierce, much like a dart guy traveling with Shaodong.
Zhang Hongfan and the others knew that Cheng Yue had confidential matters as soon as they saw them, and they were very interested, so they stepped forward to inquire and wanted to go together. Cheng Yue kept his mouth shut, refused to go with them, instructed them to continue training, and then led everyone out of the palace with their horses.
It's still the Chinese New Year, and the streets are very lively, with people shuttling around, hawkers selling along the streets, and occasionally children setting off firecrackers.
Cheng Yue and everyone mixed into the crowd and slowly walked towards the north gate.
Yuanda has eleven city gates, and there are two in the north, namely Jiande Gate and Anzhen Gate. To get to these two gates, you have to pass through the Bell and Drum Tower and the pond anyway. These two places are the most lively places in Dadu, with a large number of shops and merchants from all over the world, and all the curiosities of the world can be found in Dadu. Raw silk alone is more than 1,000 cars a day, which shows the degree of its prosperity.
Walking to the vicinity of the Bell and Drum Tower, it is full of people. Fortunately, the streets in Dadu are very wide, and the main road is more than 20 meters wide, so it is not difficult for Cheng Yue and others to lead the horses.
At this time, there was a series of gongs behind him, and someone shouted loudly: "Get out of the way!" Get out of the way! ”
The people consciously gave way to both sides of the street, and Cheng Yue also led people to the right side of the road. Cheng Yue is young and handsome, and the horse he leads is a rare good horse (the imperial horse given by Kublai Khan when he defeated the Luo Zhen), and there are many people under him, and it is obvious that he has a good family background, which provokes several big girls and little daughters-in-law around him to fly straight to him.
Soon, a team of people came in the distance, both monks and laymen. At first, a big lama in red had a dark complexion, was very strong, and looked solemn, but a pair of colored eyes kept secretly looking at the women standing on both sides with the corner of his eye.
Next to them were a dozen attendant lamas, also dressed in red, interspersed with several interpreters, and on the outermost side were some errand servants. The group was dusty, obviously they had just arrived in Dadu after a long journey, and they were all arrogant and pretentious.
The people of most of the capital basically believe in Buddhism, seeing that there is a living Buddha coming, they have bowed and saluted, and a large number of foolish men and women knelt on the side of the road on the spot, kowtowing desperately, begging the living Buddha to pray for him to be blessed and eliminate disasters.
Cheng Yue and his subordinates not only did not salute, but there was no trace of respect on their faces, even Uner, who had just surrendered, was no exception, and was extremely conspicuous in the crowd.
This living Buddha traveled all the way east from Tibet, and everywhere he went, he was greeted with a smile and hospitality.
The interpreter is a middle-aged and fearful man, and his shrewd and capable face reveals a bit of ruthlessness. When he arrived at the signal, he looked at Cheng Yue and immediately had an idea. So he stepped forward on his horse, pointed at Cheng Yue with a horsewhip and shouted: "Han boy! You dare to steal the horse of the living Buddha, are you not afraid of retribution or are you not afraid that the government will arrest you and beat you to death? ”
Cheng Yue was stunned, pointed to his nose and said suspiciously: "You said that my horse belongs to that lama?" ”
The interpreter scolded: "What do you call that lama? You are so bold, you don't steal enough horses, and you dare to be rude to the living Buddha! Come on, get him out! ”
The people who were kneeling on the ground in front of Cheng Yue hurriedly rolled to the side when they heard this, and several messengers around the interpreter immediately drew their sabers and approached Cheng Yue.
Cheng Yue didn't command, and the people around him didn't dare to move, so they had to watch Cheng Yue have two knives on his neck.
An errand officer reached out to grab Cheng Yue's hair, how could Cheng Yue be pulled by him, stretched out his hand to stop him, and said with a smile: "I can walk by myself, I don't have to be rough." ”
The errand officer could see that Cheng Yue's background was not simple, so he didn't insist at the moment, but only "hummed" and said: "You come here, and wait for the chief system official to deal with it." ”
"Commander-in-chief?" Cheng Yue wondered in his heart, and glanced at the interpreter again.
When he came to the interpreter's horse, the interpreter didn't say a word, and whipped him down.
Cheng Yue was on guard, and in a flash, the whip was evacuated, and the interpreter's figure fell, and he almost fell off the horse.
The interpreter stabilized his body and jumped off the horse, pointed at Cheng Yue and scolded like thunder: "Bastard! What are you letting go of? Hold him down, he dares to resist me, I have to beat him to death! ”
The servants were scolded, yelled angrily, and rushed up to hold Cheng Yue down.
Cheng Yue smiled, suddenly jumped behind the interpreter, grabbed the throat of the interpreter like lightning, and with a force, the interpreter suddenly lost his breath, and his face began to turn purple.
The officers were horrified, they had been on an errand for many years, and they had never seen anyone dare to touch the officials of the General Authority, let alone resist their arrest in the street, this is a rebellion!
All the remaining officers drew their swords, and the officers with the gongs played with their lives, shouting as they struck, "Rebellion!" Rebellion! ”
If the Living Buddha from Tibet is harmed, none of them will survive!
The people on the street were terrified and retreated into the distance like a frenzy, leaving only Cheng Yue's men standing in place.
Cheng Yue ignored it, took out the dagger given to him by the prince of Tuhuan from his arms, pressed it against the waist of the interpreter, let go of the hand that was clasped on his throat, and asked with a smile: "Who are you?" What a big official authority. ”
The interpreter relied on it, and he didn't believe that Cheng Yue dared to do anything to him, and sneered: "You are a mere Han who dares to touch me? Believe it or not, I killed your whole family? Now you honestly kneel on the ground and kowtow, and you want to knock the blood, until I am satisfied, and then pay me a thousand taels of silver and two maids, and I can still let you go, and when the government comes, will you still live? ”
Cheng Yue was unmoved, he smiled, grabbed his left ear, and cut it off with a knife! (To be continued......)
