Chapter 53: Gentleness
It is not strange that many people are polite, but Tang Ming is obviously overacting at the moment, although Yao Guangxiao is old, he has not reached the time when his old eyes are dizzy, and his wise eyes swept and knew that Tang Ming must have something to find him. The little monk who swept the floor went to prepare tea, turned around and walked towards the temple, and said, "Come with me!" ”
There was some darkness in the temple, Tang Ming closed his eyes for a moment to get used to it, there was a statue of Buddha in the center of the door, green smoke curled in the incense burner, there was a low table next to the offering table, and there were four bedding used in zazen on the ground. Yao Guangxiao sat beside the Buddha statue and said a Buddha name: "Amitabha, if you have nothing to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Hall, just say what you have, and the teacher will answer them for you one by one." ”
Tang Ming was broken by a word, he didn't feel embarrassed at all, and after bowing and saluting, he sat down generously opposite Yao Guangxiao, and said: "The disciple came here this time to be entrusted by someone, and I want to inquire about Fang Xiaoru with the master, I don't know if I can tell you a thing or two." ”
"Shi also ordered him, the teacher has been protected by him in front of the emperor, and the seed of reading cannot be broken, and the emperor also agreed. As long as Lord Fang is willing to admit the emperor's accession to the throne, he can save the lives of the whole family. It's just that the teachers and students are afraid that Master Fang will not bow his head, and the consequences are worrying! ”
Yao Guangxiao's face showed pity, he had a reason to protect Fang Xiaoru in public and private, but judging from Fang Xiaoru's reaction, this matter was not optimistic. Zhu Di was murderous again because of the Battle of Jingjing, and his temper was much hotter than before, Fang Xiaoru's incident was Zhu Di's reverse scale, and if he was not careful, he would be bleeding like a river.
Hearing this, Tang Ming didn't know how to express his position, Fang Xiaoru in history died under Zhu Di's butcher's knife, and later generations had good and bad evaluations of him. Persuade? Tang Ming had already tried, but it was to no avail, and if he didn't do anything, Fang Xiaoru would only have a dead end.
The development of things to this point is no longer something that Tang Ming can reverse now, thinking back to what he said to Chen Jialan before leaving, he suddenly felt a sense of guilt rising in his heart. Sighing secretly, the only thing he could do now was to keep Chen Jialan away from Daming and let her not hear anything about Fang Xiaoru in the future.
And the best way, of course, is to arrange her to Weihai Island, her fiefdom. People always think crankily when they have nothing to do, maybe they should find something for her to do, time is the best medicine, I believe that after a period of time, Chen Jialan will be able to forget all the troubles now.
Saying goodbye to Yao Guangxiao sullenly, Tang Ming took Xiaobai and walked to the Superintendent alone, and he decided to knock Zhu Di hard. Touching the holy decree on his chest, he swept away the sadness on his face, and gradually quickened his pace under his feet.
After Yang Qing learned of Tang Ming's intention, the smile on his face immediately disappeared, and he asked Tang Ming to consider changing some craftsmen with a bitter face. Because Tang Ming actually personally flipped through the personnel files of the Supervision Division, and then made a list of the craftsmen he needed the most at present into a piece of paper and handed it to Yang Qing to arrange.
Among them, the 100 craftsmen almost included top talents from all walks of life, and if the craftsmen were really arranged according to the list on Tang Ming's paper, Yang Qing was sure that Nanjing, the superintendent of the manufacturing department, would have to close tomorrow.
"Master Hou, please also raise your noble hand, the craftsmen on your list are all key talents in the Supervision Division, if there is no one for them all of a sudden, the Supervision Division will not be able to operate normally, you see if you can reduce some, at least let the Supervision Division operate as usual, and the lower officials can reply to the emperor, otherwise if the emperor blames them, the lower officials are afraid that their lives will not be guaranteed!"
Yang Qing's face turned pale, he knelt on the ground, and vomited bitterness with tears in his eyes, and then he knew that he was clear and reasonable, in a word, he hoped that Tang Ming would let him go.
Looking at Yang Qing on the ground with a handful of snot and tears, Tang Ming was really ruthless for a while, but if even the craftsman couldn't get what he needed, he wouldn't be reconciled! If you miss this opportunity just like that, the answer is definitely no.
After pondering for a moment, Tang Ming flipped through the files of the craftsmen again, and after carefully browsing them, he found that these craftsmen were all lifelong, but they were all passed down from generation to generation, and his eyes lit up. He suddenly thought of a compromise.
"This matter is related to Lord Yang's life, so naturally he can't force it. Well, you can change the artisans on my list to only their heirs, or the first heirs. In a word, it is necessary to have people who have received the truth in all fields. ”
Yang Qing As long as Tang Ming doesn't bring down the Supervision Division, anyway, after a period of time, he will be transferred to Beiping to build the palace, as long as he can get through this hurdle in the present, he doesn't care what the Supervision Division will become in the future. With such a thought, he immediately thanked Tang Ming for Dade's thanks, and went to arrange the craftsman's household.
Due to the large number of craftsmen involved after all, Tang Ming had been supervising the manufacturing department until the evening, and then waited for the news arranged by Yang Qing. checked the people on the list one by one, and found nothing wrong, so he left the Supervision Division satisfied. As for the heirs of the selected craftsmen, they are all young and strong men, which is what Tang Ming values most.
After all, young people are much more receptive to new things than those old craftsmen. Tang Ming brought these people to his fiefdom, but he didn't just let them work. Rather, these people should be treated as first-generation students, who specialize in the study of advanced technology in their heads.
Alone on an isolated island overseas, Tang Ming didn't think that he could live a peaceful life, once the island began to open up, it would definitely attract pirates from nearby waters, especially the Japanese robbers, who were active in the Daming Sea. If there is no force or defense that can deter them.
How can the 300 soldiers of Weihaiwei alone be able to defend such a large island, Weihai Island is now his fiefdom and his future home, and it really belongs to him as a place to settle down. He doesn't want to be trampled on, island? As long as you dare to set foot on Weihai Island, then don't think about going back.
With a relaxed and happy mood, Tang Ming took Xiaobai to stroll through the lively streets, slowly moving forward with the flow of people. Just walked less than a dozen steps, and the people around him suddenly moved away from him, as if they were afraid of something. When Tang Ming noticed it, he found that it was Xiaobai who was to blame.
Seeing that the people next to him began to point fingers at him, and there was still a look of disgust on his face, he could think with his toes that he must be seen as a gentleman again. Being watched like a monkey, the night view is naturally not appreciated, and I was about to shout at the little white flash man, when I saw the crowd in front of me retreat to both sides like a tide, making way for the middle road.
A group of soldiers armed with spears and fire systems immediately rushed up, and instantly surrounded Tang Ming and Xiaobai, all of them facing him. A big man like an iron tower, coming in crowd, pointed at Tang Ming with a big axe in his hand, and shouted categorically: "That kid dares to take a vicious dog to the street to disturb the people, isn't he afraid of moving his head?" ”
