Chapter 485: Two ends are not pleased

Li Xiang asked a question, and Wu Zong sighed, it was his wishful thinking again. As the son of heaven, sometimes you have to be subject to many constraints, and you can't do it willfully.

Li Xiangyu, both public and private, did not approve of Wuzong going to the feudal town. Wu Zong's idea of going to the domain town was purely selfish.

Li Xiang: "Your Majesty, the idea of going to the feudal town is not advisable, the cleaning of the temple will cause some turmoil, and Your Majesty's safety is a state matter, so Your Majesty must not act recklessly." ”

Wu Zong explained that there were no silver three hundred taels here: "I just lived in the palace for a long time, and I was a little bored, and I wanted to go out for a walk. ”

Li Hui came to bid farewell to Wu Zong. Wuzong encouraged Li Hui, and Li Xiang told Li Hui again, and Li Hui left Chang'an with a team of men and horses and went to Youzhou.

Fifty people were released in one day, and the scale of the team under the city gate in Youzhou was getting bigger and bigger. There are few people who enter the city every day, and many people come to Youzhou every day.

Miaokong looked at the team behind him who couldn't see the end, and his heart was very sad. Xun'er nested in Miaokong's arms, and the two of them had been squatting outside for two days. There were more than a hundred people in front of them.

Even if you are a Buddhist, at this time, you only pay attention to the rules, not the kindness of people. Everyone feels that it is not easy for them, and who can take care of whom. Everyone is a victim of this campaign to exterminate Buddha.

Although Myokora took Shun'er with him, the little children slept in the open air at night like them. No way, just line up according to the rules. Even if some people have compassion, some people disagree.

On the fifth day, Miaokong and Xun'er lined up at the city gate for five days before they were able to enter the city. The soldiers led a team of fifty men to a row of improvised thatched huts in the middle of the city.

The monasteries in Youzhou City are also overcrowded and do not have that much reception capacity. There were more than a dozen people crowded into one of the huts. There was no furniture, no pillows, just a rudimentary washbasin.

Miaokong already felt relieved, after all, there was thatch to cover his body, so he didn't have to be frozen. At noon, the soldiers brought the meal, several large wooden barrels filled with brown rice, and several large wooden barrels contained vegetable soup, a few vegetable leaves, and oil stars on them.

Rice and soup are filling. Miaokong and Xun'er ate with relish, after all, it was too delicious to eat a hot meal again in five days. The two of them had a full meal, and Xun'er slept beautifully in Miaokong's arms.

With the sound of chanting sutras and chanting Buddha around him, Myokora also fell asleep. Myokora opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the sun, and it was time for dinner again. Xun'er recited the "Book of Songs" in his mouth, and a monk teased him next to him.

"Little novice, you should recite Buddhist sutras, not poetry sutras. You are a disciple of Buddhism, not a student in the academy. ”

Xun'er stared at the big black eyes, ignoring the jokes of the people next to her. Dinner is still brown rice, vegetable soup.

The place to sleep is to lay straw under your body and lie on the ground. Fortunately, the weather is hot now, and there is no moisture underground.

Xun'er nested in Miaokong's arms, with his uncle by his side, he didn't feel hard. Always smiling. Let Miao Kong feel a lot of relief.

Li Hui led the team to hurry up and rushed to Youzhou more than ten days later. The spectacular scene outside the gate of Youzhou shocked Li Hui. There is a procession more than ten miles long outside Youzhou City, and the monks who are rushing to Youzhou are still rushing in this direction.

Zhang Zhongwu, Zhang Zhongwu, do you feel that the imperial court really has no way to take you. You're not a monk who unites the world and stands on the opposite side of the court.

Li Hui led the team into the city, and Zhang Zhongwu and his staff discussed things in the palace. Hearing that Li returned, he hurriedly went out of the mansion to greet him.

Li Hui's face was not good, and when he saw Zhang Zhongwu, he scolded him sharply at first sight, "Confused, you are very confused." ”

Recently, the monks have flocked to Youzhou, Zhang Zhongwu is also worried about this matter, he is a devout Buddhist, if he refuses to enter the Buddhist disciples, the Buddhist disciples are in trouble He does not help, and feels that he is ashamed of the Buddha. New book bag network

However, accepting Buddhist disciples to take refuge in Youzhou, he was ashamed of the imperial court. He was in a dilemma. What do you say he should do? For this reason, he burned incense to worship the Buddha and asked the Buddha to show it.

But the Buddha was silent, and the lottery was also a painless lot, and there was no good solution. There is no solution that satisfies both sides, either/or, and the boundaries are clear.

"Master Li has taught you a great lesson." Zhang Zhongwu humbly accepted criticism.

Li sat down and didn't have any greetings, "Your brother gave you the letterhead, you can take a look at it first." ”

He handed Zhang Zhongqing's letterhead to Zhang Zhongwu, and the envoy took it, read it, and taught him a good lesson in his brother's letterhead.

Li Hui took out a letter from his bosom again, "This is the Prime Minister's instructions for you, take a look." ”

In his letter, Li Xiang said that although Youzhou was independent in its internal and foreign affairs, the policies promoted by the imperial court throughout the country could not be obstructed or undermined by the feudal towns. Don't let the court misunderstand because of your wrong approach for a while.

The imperial court will not interfere too much in the affairs of the feudal town, and the feudal town should not influence the decision-making of the imperial court too much. Making wise choices and judgments is the most pressing issue for Mr. Zhang at present.

I have no objection to your beliefs, but your beliefs should not conflict with the decisions of the imperial court. I hope you've thought twice. Don't fight against the imperial court on your own, you are not the Buddha, the Buddha can't stop the historical development trend, can ordinary people block the car with their arms!

Zhang Zhongwu read Li Xiang's letter, and his head was sweating. The younger brother bluntly condemned him on letterhead, you are only thinking about yourself. Our brothers who serve in the imperial court, have you thought about it, have you thought about the Zhang family?

Zhang Zhongwu made a painful decision, "Close the city gate, don't let the wandering monks enter the city, and don't let anyone in." ”

Li Hui: "Now, how many foreign wandering monks are there in the city? ”

Zhang Zhongwu was entangled for a moment, don't count what you put in.

Li Hui's beard was cocked, "Confused, you are old and confused." ”

Zhang Zhongwu: "Thousands, right?" He hesitated.

Li Hui ordered in a non-negotiable tone: "Repatriate all these monks to their hometowns and enrich the household registration of local residents." ”

The imperial court sent Tongping Zhangshi to personally supervise the matter, but Zhang Zhongwu couldn't bear it.

"Gather all the monks who have been taken in by various monasteries in recent days, and send them out of the city tomorrow to repatriate them to their hometowns."

I couldn't twist my arms around my thighs, and I did a thankless job. Zhang Zhongwu really wanted to slap himself, but now it's okay, the Buddha has also been offended, and the emperor is also named. The two ends do not fall well.

"Lord Li, I have already instructed my subordinates to handle it, eat, and I will pick up the wind and wash the dust for Lord Li." Zhang Zhongwu invited Li Hui to the banquet.

Li Hui didn't want to put too much pressure on Zhang Zhongwu, they were all people who understood and could understand everything. and Zhang Zhongwu joined hands in the banquet.

Miaokong took Xun'er here for a few days to live a stable life, and how did he know that the nightmare had just begun. Xun'er, the child who has been by his side for two years, Xun'er who he treats as his own son, will leave him in this accident.
