Chapter 65: Man Conquers Heaven

"Lin'an City is really different, if you don't come here, you can't imagine that there is such a prosperous place in the world, I am far from Mongolia, Shangdu and other cities, no wonder the Great Khan is obsessed with the world of flowers in the Southern Dynasty."

A tall middle-aged monk thought as he walked.

When the spring is cold, the middle-aged monk wears only a thin monk's robe and carries a yellow cloth bag (the monk's cloth bag, called the Qiankun bag), and seems to be not afraid of the cold.

This monk is about in his early thirties, with a handsome face and a well-defined silhouette, except for the slightly dark skin, which is not much different from the Song people at first glance, but when he occasionally shows a smile, it will make people feel an inexplicable evil spirit.

After Tianya failed to send masked men led by Elder Kunzhe to assassinate the Song emperor, Kublai Khan intended to re-establish a Xizuo station in Lin'an to replace the original intelligence agency and prepare for the Mongol invasion of the Song Dynasty.

From the conclusion drawn from Yin Tianya's deference of the astrological signs, Kublai Khan became particularly important to this Song Dynasty emperor, and after consulting with Yin Tianya, he entrusted this difficult task to Yang Lian Zhenjia, the high priest of Tianya.

Yang Lian Zhenjia, the high priest of the Mongolian Tianya, from the Tibetan Tantra of Western Xia, not good at Buddhism, but like Tantric martial arts, defected to Mongolia five years ago, quite trusted by Kublai Khan, and then got the guidance of Yin Tianya, martial arts Dacheng, in Kublai Khan's decision to pacify Ali Buge's surname battle, Yang Lian Zhenjia single-handedly killed into the Ali Buge tent protected by the cowardly Xue army, and captured Ali Buge. He was bold and careful, and he could be described as both civil and military, and he was constantly promoted in Tianya, and was finally appointed as the high priest by Yin Tianya, ranking above the four elders of the temple. Although Yang Lian Zhenjia is a native of the Western Regions, his appearance is no different from that of the Han people, and he is proficient in Chinese, so he was entrusted with an important task and came to Lin'an alone.

During the Song Dynasty, there were a lot of Buddhists, and monks from all over the world often went to the temples in the capital to place orders, so no one would pay attention to such a single monk.

In the evening, Yang Lian Zhenjia came to Yanfu Temple in the north of Lin'an.

Yanfu Temple is a small temple in Lin'an, the location is remote, few people set foot in, it is a light incense, in addition to presiding over Master Yunze, there are only a dozen young monks in the temple, here is the only stronghold of the Mongols in Lin'an, it is said that it was built by Tore (Genghis Khan's youngest son) when he traveled to the south.

Yang Lian Zhenjia circled around the temple, looked around the terrain, and came to the closed temple gate.

"Papapa" Yang Lian really knocked on the temple door, and after a while, the temple door opened, and a young novice came out inside.

"What are you doing here?" The young novice asked, clasping his hands together.

"If the poor monk wants to place an order in your temple, please inform the host and make it convenient."

"Master, wait a minute."

The young novice soon came to the door with a monk in his thirties.

"Where did this master come from? Lao Gon is the presiding officer of the temple. Yun Ze looked at Yang Lian Zhenjia and asked.

"I've seen Master Yunze." Yang Lian Zhenjia clasped his hands together and said, "The poor monk travels all over the world, and if he wants to place an order in your temple, please ask the master to make it convenient." ”

"This temple is small, it is difficult to accommodate this master, please move to other temples." Yun Ze looked like he was rejecting.

Yang Lian really smiled: "The temple is small but it doesn't matter, as long as the winding path can be quiet." ”

Yun Ze was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Where does the small temple come from the winding path, this temple only has Zen room flowers and trees." ”

Yang Lian really added his thumb, his index finger formed a circular seal, and the other fingers were upturned: "Poor monks only like flowers and trees." ”

Yun Ze hurriedly made the same gesture, invited Yang Lian Zhenjia into the inner room and said, "Then please ask the master to enter the meditation room with the old man and then discuss." ”

After entering the house, Yun Ze instructed the little novice: "Jue Li, go and prepare a guest room for this master to rest." ”

After Yang Lian Zhenjia saw Jueli leaving, he took out a secret letter from the Qiankun bag and handed it to Yun Ze: "The poor monk is Yang Lian Zhenjia, the high priest of the temple, this is the letter and seal of Lord Shenzun." ”

After reading it, Yun Ze hurriedly knelt down and said, "Subordinate Yun Ze has seen the high priest. ”

Yang Lian Zhenjia took the letter and sandwiched it between his palms, and with a slight force, the letter instantly became a piece of shredded paper and fell to the ground.

"What a skill." Yun Ze said secretly.

"Yun Ze, sit down." Yang Lianzhen added, "Let's talk about the current situation in Lin'an first. ”

After Yun Ze sat down, he said respectfully, "Yes, Lord Priest." ”

On March 1 of the first year of Xianchun, Kublai Khan moved the capital to Yanjing, announced to the world, changed Yanjing to the capital, and the original Kaiping Shangdu was renamed Zhongdu, as the capital of Mongolia, and according to the meaning of the Tianya Divine Venerable Lord Yin Tianya, he ordered the construction of a new city in the northeast outside the original Yanjing City, and Liu Bingzhong, a Tibetan Chunsan man who ranked second among the four elders of the Tianya Temple, was responsible for supervising the construction.

This Liu Bingzhong is proficient in mathematics, if it weren't for the Han people, Yin Tianya might have cultivated him into the next generation of Tianya Divine Venerable.

At the same time, Kublai Khan carried out a series of changes, first of all, the simplification and integration of the administrative management system, the Zhongshu Province was fully responsible for administrative affairs, because there was only one body in charge, the administrative management was carried out more smoothly, all the twists and turns submitted to the emperor had to be filtered through the Zhongshu Province, the highest position of the Zhongshu Province was the Zhongshu Order, and the important decisions approved by Kublai Khan were handed over to the ministries responsible for implementation and supervision by the Zhongshu Order. Secondly, according to the Han system, a special Privy Council was set up to be in charge of military affairs, and the six ministries that carried out the decisions of Zhongshu Province were reused, and the capable Han people were reused, and third, the land was distributed to the Han people who originally belonged to the Jin State, so that the Mongols could not plunder at will.

This series of reform measures laid a solid foundation for the southern invasion of the Song Dynasty and the unification of the world.

The Mongol Kublai Khan and I were both racing against the same time, but it would be more difficult for me, and there was resistance from the Jia Yidao faction in my court, while Kublai Khan could focus on internal affairs after the rebellion.

Jiang Wanli Liao Yingzhong's work efficiency is still very high, on the seventh day after my appointment was issued, a copy of the establishment of the Ministry of Commerce has been placed in the imperial study of Ningqian Palace, I read it and handed it to Wen Tianxiang Lu Xiufu next to him: "You also see, this Liao Yingzhong still has some skills." ”

Lu Xiufu said: "I have heard Master Li mention it before, this Liao Yingzhong is very good, it is Jia Rudao's Zhuge Ye, Your Majesty needs to be wary of it." ”

I nodded in agreement. At this time, Xiao Qi came in and reported: "Mr. Yuan is out asking to see him." ”

"Sir, here? Declare. ”

Yuan Jian entered the house and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has just returned from the Shifeng Trading House, and Ye Dongsheng has returned from Sichuan, passing through Jiangxi and bringing two letters. ”

I took the letter and said, "It's the letter of Ouyang and Daofa in Sichuan." ”

I first opened the letter from Ouyang Kechun, the head of the Ouyang family, the letter was concise and to the point, the Ouyang family, as a Han Chinese, would never succumb to Mongolia, thanks to the kindness of the prince of Huyan, and he will definitely cooperate with the dragon tooth if he has the opportunity. The letter did not mention whether the strength would be preserved, only that unnecessary casualties would be minimized, and that the Ouyang family would continue to fight the Mongols in their own way because they were disappointed in the imperial court.

This Ouyang family master is very backbone, but he is also very stubborn.

I took out the quill pen, thought about it and wrote, Ouyang Kechun's predecessors, now the new emperor ascended the throne, I heard that he was determined to change, the DPRK and China will definitely be new, the world is prosperous, and the husband is responsible, Huyan admires the righteous deeds of his predecessors very much, my dragon tooth is willing to unite all the forces to resist Mongolia, and the alien race that occupies my homeland will be expelled from the house, and the people of the dragon tooth will fight for the rise of the Great Song Dynasty for life, and I believe that my Han nation will achieve the final victory.

"Sir, hand over this letter to the Ouyang family."

I continue to read the second letter of the Daofa.

The letter from the Taoist law is only a few sentences, the Mongolian Kublai Khan moved the capital to Yanjing, which is located in the dragon vein, which is prosperous, adding a lot of light to its life star, and the emperor needs to be cautious.

After reading it, I immediately picked up my pen and wrote, thanking the Taoist master for reminding me that people will win the day.

"Sir, this letter is handed over to the Daofa."
