Chapter 254: The Great Sin of Treason
The atmosphere suddenly became tense in the secret room.
Su Wuming slowly opened the wooden box, after the wooden box was opened, a rag doll appeared inside, and the rag doll had a lot of needles pierced on its body.
Of course, with Su Wuming's experience in his previous life, he naturally didn't think that this method could play any role, but in this Tang Dynasty, it was very superstitious.
It's just that who is this Yuanji abbot trying to harm?
Su Wuming slowly took out the rag doll and turned it over, and then saw a piece of paper pasted behind the rag doll with a person's name written on it: Li Yan!
The name of the emperor today.
Tang Xiong was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Brother Su, this Yuanji abbot actually wants to murder the emperor. ”
Su Wuming was not surprised, he was just happy, after looking for so long, he finally found evidence that could lead to the fiasco of Huguo Temple, Su Wuming pondered for a while, and immediately said to Tang Xiong: "Go, go out!" ”
After leaving the secret room, Su Wuming immediately ordered someone to move the jewelry inside out and send it to the palace overnight, and he, Su Wuming, followed him into the palace with the wooden box.
At that time, Li Yan had already fallen asleep, but he heard that Su Wuming had found important evidence, so he hurriedly got up to meet him, and when Li Yan saw more jewelry, he was naturally happy in his heart, but when he saw the rag doll, his face was full of anger, and before the eunuch next to him reacted, Li Yan immediately ordered: "Come on, demolish the Huguo Temple to me, and rebel, this is to rebel, what kind of abbot, kill me to show the public." ”
After a eunuch received the order, he had to do it here, but at this time, Su Wuming suddenly stopped: "Your Majesty, no, that Yuanji Abbot is just a monk, and he definitely won't think about murdering the emperor, I think there must be other people who want to murder the emperor, so that Yuanji Abbot does it, Weichen's opinion, it is better to leave that Yuanji Abbot's life, and then ask the person who really wants to rebel." ”
At this time, Li Yan had slowly regained his composure, and after listening to Su Wuming's words, he nodded slightly: "Okay, this matter will be handed over to Su Aiqing, and I will handle him well." ”
Su Wuming received orders again and again, and then took five hundred forbidden soldiers from the palace and hurried to Huguo Temple.
This night, the entire Chang'an City was not peaceful, and the Huguo Temple was demolished by those forbidden troops overnight, and the demolition made the abbot of Yuanji have nothing to say.
After one night, the entire Chang'an City was shocked, of course, they were shocked by the demolition of the Huguo Temple, and the abbot of Yuanji murdered the emperor's rag doll.
Although everyone was shocked, although they had a kind of resentment against Su Wuming for demolishing Huguo Temple, none of them dared to show it, Abbot Yuanji was a rebellion, who dared to show it, he might be considered a fellow party.
When the Son of Heaven is angry, he will surely flow into a river of blood, and the best way not to let his blood flow into that river is to stay away from it.
Everyone didn't expect that Huguo Temple would be suddenly destroyed, and everyone thought that the battle between Huguo Temple and Su Wuming would last a little longer.
When everyone found out that Su Wuming was so resolute, the Qingguang Abbot of Qingguang Temple and the Puyu Abbot of Pudu Temple were faintly uneasy in their hearts, they thought that Su Wuming was a small Dali Temple Sizhi, even if there was an order from the emperor, it was difficult to be their opponent, but now seeing that Su Wuming had defeated Huguo Temple in just a few days, how could they not worry?
After the panic rose, Qingguang Temple and Pudu Temple immediately began to act, they wanted to organize all the forces that could be organized to deal with Su Wuming's next attack, but what they didn't expect was that none of their allies in the court dared to stand up and speak for them this time.
And the folk believers, only some of the most loyal are against Su Wuming, those people who have to become believers because they rented the fields of Qingguang Temple and Pudu Temple, but at this time they want Su Wuming to deal with Qingguang Temple and Pudu Temple quickly, and the reason is very simple, the tenants under Huguo Temple are now allocated their own land, and they are only renting other people's land, how can they not want Qingguang Temple and Pudu Temple to be destroyed quickly?
For a time, Su Wuming became famous, whether in Chang'an City or elsewhere.
It's just that among this reputation, there are good and bad, and the good ones are naturally those poor people, because after the demolition of the Huguo Temple, they got real benefits, in fact, if you want to buy the hearts of the people, it's as simple as that, so that they have food to eat, and there is a hope in their hearts.
And the bad one is naturally the court, because of Su Wuming's measures, those ministers of the court and the central government dare not speak out, and in the end they can only curse a few words secretly.
And after Su Wuming demolished the Huguo Temple and distributed the land under the name of the Huguo Temple to the people, he was not in a hurry to do anything to the remaining temples, because he was waiting, waiting for these temples to relax, and of course, waiting for the temples that knew the current affairs.
If he Su Wuming makes a move, the fate of those monasteries will definitely be like the Huguo Temple, and they will no longer exist, but if there are temples that know the current affairs, are willing to take the initiative to call out the money in the temple, are willing to distribute the land to the people, and are willing to reduce the number of monks in the temple, then Su Wuming will not do everything to exterminate, and he will have to leave a few considerable temples for future generations.
Of course, if you wait for the abbots in those monasteries to come to their senses, it seems impossible, so in the meantime, Su Wuming has to do some tricks and tricks to reveal his thoughts, and as long as those abbots know this idea, there will always be a few who will come to surrender.
During this period, Su Wuming focused on the interrogation of Abbot Yuanji and the pursuit of Monk Yuanhui.
The hunt of Monk Yuanhui was much easier, the day after the Huguo Temple was demolished, Monk Yuanhui and his two concubines were caught, and as soon as the news reached the people, all the people were shocked, everyone was exclaiming, what monk has two concubines?
Although it may be that the monk Yuanhui has two concubines, but after these rumors, the whole Chang'an City is rumored that the monk also married a wife and a concubine, and for a while, all the people saw the monk and pointed at it, thinking that these monks were sanctimonious, and they were in other places, I don't know how many concubines they hid, how much gold and silver they hid.
A day later, the monk became synonymous with hypocrisy, and all the temples were rarely visited by believers, and the temples that were once flourishing with incense suddenly became cold and widowed.
Things in the world are so wonderful, public opinion is a very terrible weapon, he can turn good things into bad, and he can also turn bad things into good, depending on who he is used by.
At this time, in Chang'an City, the situation of those monasteries was no longer good.
But none of this mattered, all Su Wuming had to do was to continue to interrogate Monk Yuanji.
However, things were not as simple as Su Wuming thought, when Su Wuming interrogated Monk Yuanji, Monk Yuanji suddenly asked Su Wuming a very strange question: "Master Su, do you think that a rich person like me will also marry a wife and take a concubine like Senior Brother Yuanhui?" ”
Su Wuming didn't understand why Monk Yuanji asked such a question, but after thinking about it carefully, he nodded, he felt that Monk Yuanji would, of course, this was not because Abbot Yuanji was sanctimonious, but he felt that after a person had a lot of money, he would think about what to do with the money after his death, give it to others, unwillingly, but he is a monk or not, after such a struggle, the monk has to marry a wife and take a concubine, pass on the ancestry, and pass on the gold and silver.
And when Su Wuming thought of this, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly looked at Abbot Yuanji and said, "So, you will never tell who the person who wants to rebel is?" ”
Monk Yuanji nodded: "Master Su is a smart person, and he quickly thought of it, that's right, I Yuanji has started to take concubines ten years ago, two a year, and now there are twenty concubines, and these twenty concubines have given birth to a total of twenty-three children, including ten sons and thirteen daughters, and the lives of these people are now in my hands, if I say it, their lives will be gone, and I don't say it, but I am just dead." ”
Understood, Su Wuming finally understood, but despite this, Su Wuming did not give up, he looked at Abbot Yuanji and asked: "Abbot Yuanji is a good means, he has so many children at this age, but have you ever thought about it, you have been staying in Huguo Temple, how much time you spend with those concubines, can you guarantee that the children they give birth to are your flesh and blood?" Maybe those concubines of yours have already gone out of the wall and fornicated with other wild men behind your back, and now they are afraid that they are spending your money to raise other men and other men's flesh and blood. ”
These words were very poisonous, and after hearing this, the poisonous abbot of Yuanji suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.
It's just that after Abbot Yuanji spurted out a mouthful of blood, he suddenly burst out laughing, and after laughing, he said, "Don't lie to me!" ”
Su Wuming shrugged: "How can I lie to you, think about it, how long have you not had a warm room with those concubines of yours, you have twenty concubines, I'm afraid that some concubines you won't be able to touch for a year, they are alone in the empty boudoir, do you think they will be red apricot out of the wall?" ”
Monk Yuanji's brows deepened and deepened, but soon, he suddenly laughed a few more loudly: "Even if what you say is the truth, but the sons in front of me must be mine, when I first came into contact with women, I loved them in a thousand ways, those children were born to me watching, hahaha......"
When Monk Yuanji said these words, Su Wuming already felt bad, and as soon as Su Wuming felt this, Abbot Yuanji spurted out a mouthful of blood, his eyes suddenly widened, and then he fell to the ground.
He's dead.
