Mu Zhai Gong said yes. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info but I think that His Majesty does not conflict with the Queen Mother's filial piety and the land of the Qingzhang Temple. As long as you don't touch those fields for the time being, Your Majesty will not ask. ”

Xie Shen said unhurriedly.

Hearing this, Xie Qianzhi's eyes widened and said, "Siming, you are getting more and more ideas." ”

Xie Shen smiled and said, "That's because Xiya Gong and Mu Zhai Gong have taught well. ”

"Okay, Siming, since you have a plan in your heart, the old man will be relieved."

Xie Qian sighed and said, "It's too late, it's not easy to get the temple to hand over the land. ”

"In this world, whenever there is a conflict of interests, there is nothing to do. But just because it's hard doesn't mean it can't be done. If they are all afraid of taking responsibility and dealing with errands, then the Ming court will be rotten. ”

"Four clear and cautious words."

"It's okay, there are no outsiders in this cabinet."

Li Dongyang smiled and gave Xie Shen a round of action: "But Siming, you have to be careful." It's easy to dodge open guns and hard to defend against dark arrows. ”

Xie Shen nodded movingly.

Li Dongyang has always cultivated him as a disciple and cared for him under his wings. Although Li Dongyang cannot be regarded as Xie Shen's mentor in a strict sense, he has never regarded Xie Shen as an outsider.

Xie Shen's reforms touched the interests of the powerful, and it is certain that they will be counterattacked.

The difference is how these powerful people will retaliate against Xie Shen.

After all, everyone can't be expected to be as open-minded as Li Dongyang.

More than 100 years after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, scholars and doctors had already formed a mindset that the privileges they enjoyed were taken for granted.

What Xie Shen has to do is to correct this kind of thinking......

"Haha, I heard that Siming's annex in Xishan is under the name of Tanzhe Temple, and it was forcibly taken back. Isn't this a personal vendetta? ”

Xie Qian said half-jokingly. Xie Shen said with a bitter face: "Then I have to dare to ask for the other courtyard." It's clear that Tanzhe Temple wants to blackmail me, and I dare to take it? ”

"Ahem, don't get excited. Siming, you did the right thing. You're in a high position right now, and countless pairs of eyes are staring at you, hoping that you will make a mistake. This kind of small advantage must not be taken advantage of. ”

After a pause, Xie Qian continued: "Anyway, with Siming, your financial resources will not put this little money in your eyes." There is a lot of income from the money bank every month, right? ”

Xie Shen shook his head sadly and said, "How can Mu Zhaigong think of me like this." I'm a poor man. ”

"Poor?"

"Well, the poor can't be poorer anymore."

"I think you're poor, and you only have money left, right?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, releasing their suspicions.

......

Empress Dowager Zhang's exit from the palace was a major event. Whether it is guarding the guard of honor or choosing a route, you need to be extra careful.

The Queen Mother left the palace not for anything else, but to go to Xishan to worship the Buddha.

Emperor Zhengde has been on the throne for more than two years, and he has accepted countless concubines, but he has never given birth to an heir.

This made Empress Dowager Zhang very worried.

He and the first emperor only have one son, Zhengde, and the bloodline of this vein is tied to Zhengde alone.

If Emperor Zhengde has no queen, the throne will fall to another branch, which Empress Zhang must not allow.

Therefore, he planned to go to Tanzhe Temple to worship the Buddha and burn incense, and ask the Buddha and Bodhisattva to bless him, so that the emperor could get the imperial heir earlier.

From the Forbidden City to Tanzhe Temple, the road is not too far. But because of safety and other factors, the queen mother's guard of honor walked very slowly.

From the early morning departure to the arrival of Tanzhe Temple, it was already noon.

The arrival of the Queen Mother is definitely a great joy for Tanzhe Temple.

The presiding Venerable Huikong led the Buddhist disciples to the mountain gate to greet them.

Although the monks are not bound by the world, the gold lord still has to pay respect.

The Queen Mother is the largest financier of Tanzhe Temple.

During the Hongzhi period, the Tanzhe Temple was repaired and expanded, which was nominally the money from the eunuch Dai Yi, but in fact it was the meaning of the Queen Mother.

Master Huikong knew this.

Recently, Wanping County is going to re-clear the fields of the Xishan Temples, which makes Master Huikong worried.

Although Tanzhe Temple has a lot of roots with the royal family, there are many fields under its name, but more of them are permanent fields.

Most importantly, in order to exempt them from grain taxes, they declared these lands as Qinci Fields when they claimed them to the outside world.

In this way, nearly 10,000 acres of land under the name of Tanzhe Temple can be exempted from grain tax, and the monks in the temple are all full of oil.

With the royal flag, naturally no one will really care about which category the fields under the name belong to with Tanzhe Temple.

It wasn't until the Cabinet introduced the New Deal that everything changed.

Even those officials of Wanping County dared to show off their might in front of Tanzhe Temple, and they really took chicken feathers as arrows!

Master Huikong didn't think about winning over Xie Shen to tide over the difficulties. But this Xie Shen did not enter, which made Master Huikong very desperate.

Now the Queen Mother has arrived, which has rekindled his hope.

As long as the Queen Mother is willing to shelter Tanzhe Temple, a mere cabinet scholar is still not a threat, right?

"Amitabha, the poor monk sees the Queen Mother."

Master Huikong clasped his hands together and saluted the Empress Dowager Zhang.

Empress Dowager Zhang also clasped her palms and saluted: "The master doesn't have to be polite. The mourning family came to your temple this time to pray for the emperor, and the master of the next thing does not need to bother. ”

Master Huikong nodded and said, "In that case, please also ask the Queen Mother to come with the poor monk." ”

Surrounded by a group of guards and monks, Empress Dowager Zhang and Master Huikong walked into the main hall together.

"Since the Queen Mother is praying for Your Majesty, then she should meditate on the gods and make a wish for incense."

"That's how it should be."

Empress Dowager Zhang took a bouquet of incense from a monk, lit it and inserted it on the incense burner.

At this point, there was no need to say much, and everyone, including Master Huikong, withdrew.

There is only one Empress Dowager Zhang in the huge Daxiong Treasure Hall.

She didn't hesitate, but knelt down directly on the futon, closed her eyes and made a wish.

Buddha, please bless Zhao'er to obtain the imperial heir as soon as possible, and protect me from the continuation of the Ming Dynasty.

Empress Dowager Zhang's wishes are very direct and practical, without the slightest artificiality.

When she had made her wish, she stood up and pushed the door open.

Seeing that the Queen Mother had come out, Master Huikong stepped forward and said, "Queen Mother, you can still ask for a signature." ”

Empress Dowager Zhang nodded and said, "There is Master Lao." ”

Empress Dowager Zhang followed Master Huikong to the side hall.

Master Huikong took out a bamboo tube and asked Empress Dowager Zhang to draw one out of it.

Empress Dowager Zhang took a deep breath, simply closed her eyes and pulled one out of it at random.

She handed the sign to Master Huikong and waited for the other party to untie it.

But somehow, Master Huikong remained silent.

This is very bad for the Empress Dowager Zhang, she didn't ask without asking, let alone not, and sweat was already oozing from the corners of her forehead.

Just when Empress Dowager Zhang was about to collapse nervously, Master Huikong sighed and shook his head again and again: "Bad omen, great evil." ”

Mrs. Zhang was as white as paper when she was on the back: "Why did the master say this? ”
