A few days after the Han Dynasty became Tibetan, the national teacher Yao Guangxiao died of illness.

Yao Guangxiao's reputation is mixed among the people, some people dance with their hands, slap their palms, laugh and scold the rebel ministers and thieves finally died, and some people are sad.

Although Zhu Di had been prepared, he was still sad. For him, Yao Guangxiao has long been the closest friend and relative in his life, and his trust and respect are unmatched except for the deceased queen.

He spent two days in the court, and personally wrote a Shinto tablet of Yao Guangxiao's life and exploits and inscribed it in front of the tomb. He was also posthumously presented to him the Duke of Rongguo, nicknamed Gongjing. What shocked the government and the opposition the most was that the emperor actually ordered Yao Guangxiao to enter the Ming Ancestral Temple as a civil servant to be worshiped by his descendants!

Under such glory, hundreds of officials went to the temple to pay tribute to this legendary monk.

Bai Tang is a lay disciple personally recognized by Yao Guangxiao, and he has received great grace from him, although he was afraid and aweful before, but at this moment he is only grateful. In addition to being sad, he silently changed into white clothes and went to Qixia Temple to offer incense accompanied by Xu San.

Xu San himself once said that since he was a child, he was not afraid of the earth, but he was afraid of the national teacher. Therefore, Bai Tang looked at him and frowned, and he didn't dare to indulge a little, and he was quite pleased.

Who thought that in front of the Buddha's voice, Bai Tang knelt down and didn't cry, Xu San had already cried out sadly: "National teacher, why did you die so early?" You just recognized Bai Tang and my apprentice, I want to honor you well, and the words are still in my ears, but you have already left! National teacher, you have to make me and Bai Tang feel guilty and uncomfortable for the rest of our lives. ”

The monks and officials couldn't help but say: the national teacher recognized Lian Baitang, and they knew about it. But when did you accept Xu San?

Bai Tang's face was red, and he scolded angrily: "In front of the master's spirit, don't talk nonsense!" He took out a sacrificial text he had written, and was about to burn it on the candle, when suddenly a man stretched out his hand and cut it off.

Bai Tang raised his head in astonishment.

In front of him stood a lean man. He is about 30 years old and has a resolute face. He was dressed in the national uniform that Bai Tang was familiar with - he reacted quickly. The only of the four great princes in Nanjing City who have not intersected with themselves is Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo!

Bai Tang's eyes narrowed slightly. Zhu Yong is the son of the general Zhu Neng. He inherited his father's ability to fight bravely, and fought with the British Gong Zhang Fu to fight the fierce generals of the Tumubao Change!

Previously, he was preparing with the emperor to attack Mongolia, and he went out with the army, so that Bai Tang can see his true face today.

"Cheng Guogong." Bai Tang saluted respectfully.

Zhu Yong's cold gaze was slightly stunned after sweeping the sacrificial text, raised his thick eyebrows, looked at him with some surprise, and said lightly: "He is worthy of being a disciple of the national teacher." ”

Xu San was obviously a little jealous of Zhu Yong, and unhappily took back the sacrificial text between his fingers and handed it to Bai Tang, and snorted softly: "Then you still want to say it?" ”

Bai Tang lit the sacrificial text, and the tissue paper disappeared in a few breaths.

He was a lay disciple of the national teacher, and he left when he couldn't worship, so he asked Qiu An to go back first, kneel behind the monks, and watch the spirit of the national teacher.

Xu San's eyes hurt from the smoke of candles in the hall, and he hid outside the temple to wait.

Who knew that it didn't take long for him to rush back to the hall and whispered, "Bai Tang, something happened outside." ”

Bai Tang frowned: "What's the matter?" ”

Xu San said angrily: "There are a group of literati outside the temple who point to Sang and scold Huai. Cheng Guogong led his troops to clear the field, and they did not choose what to say. Corrupt the master's reputation. ”

Bai Tang's heart jumped. I roughly understand why. He pursed his lips and said sadly: "Let's go, take a look." ”

He went outside the temple in a rage. Sure enough, I saw a group of soldiers besieging but not attacking, and five or six middle-aged students were scolding. Cheng Guogong glanced at him lightly and said, "Lian Baitang is a disciple of the national teacher. If you have anything to say, say it to him. ”

One of them immediately breathed out of his nose and said: "Lian Gongzi is famous, I wait for the original good life to be respectful, I don't want to be Dao Xun's apprentice." It's really a sigh of relief. ”

Yao Guangxiao's name is Dao Xun. But even Zhu Di wanted to call him a young master to avoid his name, and this group of Confucian students actually called him the Dharma name directly? Why? With a bunch of you waste dim sum that can't even pass the show?!

The phoenix eyes of Bai Tang flying obliquely can't help but be like ice and frost.

He took a deep breath and politely arched his hand: "The family teacher is gone, and the court is sad." If you come to worship the family teacher, Bai Tang is grateful. If you have nothing to do and come to enjoy the scenery, you should leave as soon as possible. ”

When the Confucian scholars saw Bai Tang's politeness, they thought he was weak-hearted. One by one, they sneered: "What does your husband's immortal death have to do with us?" Could it be that a monk died in the Ming Dynasty and no one was allowed to travel to the mountains and rivers? ”

"Yes. He's dead to him, and we're playing with them. What's relevant! ”

"Some people are dead, and the people are worthy of grieving for him, and some people are dead, and the people still have to set off firecrackers!"

These people were afraid of the imperial power, and they did not dare to openly scold Yao Guangjiao and Zhu Di for rebelling and seizing the heir as disloyal and unfilial. Therefore, the language is not clear, and here it refers to the various connotations of Sang scolding Huai.

Xu San raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and his peach blossom eyes were about to become tiger eyes.

Bai Tang held down Xu San and said coldly: "Not bad." Death is lighter than a feather, and some are heavier than Mount Tai. The family teacher helped His Majesty ascend the throne, but he was in charge of the government but never greedy for power, and spread gold silk to the people. Only the "Yongle Canon" co-edited with Xie Jin is enough to last for centuries. The finch does not know the ambition of the bird, and the despicable person is ridiculous. ”

Immediately, one of them fought back: "Honghu? Owls are! As soon as the owl comes out, the country collapses! ”

Bai Tang was furious, but he shook his head with his hand and chuckled: "The desert of heavenly reason, Encore can be pushed?" Mr. heard it at the time, even if there was criticism, but the death was passed on to future generations, and it should be immortal according to human judgment. If it is enough to be able to do this, how sad is it for the disciples! ”

This passage is the end of the sacrificial text that he just burned.

Heavenly reason is unpredictable. Mr. was famous at the time, even though he was criticized, but the deeds were passed on to future generations, and some people commented on the merits of history, and they would definitely think that Mr. was immortal. If this is enough, what is there for the disciple to be sad about?

Bai Tang is a person of later generations. For Yongle's move to seize the throne, what is more important is the result. Just like Li Shimin's brother forced the palace and Song Taizong's cup bow and snake shadow, history only judges whether he is a good emperor based on the merits of the king in governing the country, as for how did the throne come about? Not many people really care.

This passage made the onlookers sigh. Yao Guangxiao, this apprentice, is really intimate!

indirectly, he also slapped Zhu Di on the back. Hey.

Several Confucian scholars looked at each other for a while, and said angrily: "No matter how nice you say, you can't block the mouth of the world!" ”

Bai Tang blinked and said with admiration on his face: "Really? Then you swear to rebuke my master here, which shows that you must have been loyal and strong at the beginning. Let's hear how you came to know your ambitions. Is it hidden in the countryside, or is it following the ancestors? Bai Tang sneered, "I see that you are dressed in brocade and jade, all of you are full of brains and fat and oily, how can you have half of the anger of the country and the people?" ”

These words stabbed the hornet's nest immediately: "Lian Baitang, you don't want to slander people with sharp teeth!" We just disdain Dao Xun's character. His Majesty the Emperor is wise and martial, his merits are all over the world, and the times are prosperous, and we can only be loyal to His Majesty if we want to be Mingzhi! ”

Bai Tang raised his hand and snapped his fingers: "I see." You don't like my master's character - where did he die early? Bai Tang unceremoniously pointed at their noses and scolded, "If a few of you scold him in person like this when the family teacher is alive, I also admire it." My master is gone, and on the day of the funeral, you came to smash the field with all your integrity and swore foul language. I clearly want to take the opportunity to make a name for myself! Afterwards, say to people, "I'm the one who scolded the national teacher" - phew! Do you still have the backbone of a reader?! It's a shame for my students! ”
