Chapter Seventy-One: Coercion

is also pretending to be a god and playing ghosts, and the teachings of Buddhism are actually not bad, but why has it been repeatedly suppressed by those in power in history?

Speaking of which, it is because this group of monks is too greedy, the clay sculptures should be decorated with gold leaf, and the monks in the temple should also be supported by the people.

And no matter what kind of law the murderer has violated, as soon as his hair falls, he will put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot.

And the Daomen are different, what they pay attention to is to be born and cultivate themselves, and the real Taoist family members are all looking for a deep mountain and old forest to cultivate, and they don't bother to pay attention to Hongchen at all.

As for believers, this thing also loves to believe in it, don't believe in it, don't bother Lao Tzu to cultivate immortals.

It is also the cold attitude of Daomen, which makes Buddhism, a rising star, suppress it.

When he came to the foot of Shaomu Mountain, Yu Fei from a distance had already seen Fang Zheng with a group of monks greeting him.

"Good news, do you want to give this official a boost?"

No one answered, and Yu Fei didn't need anyone to answer.

After dismounting and leaving a few soldiers to guard the horses, Yu Fei took the remaining more than 100 people to climb Shaomu Mountain.

"Amitabha, the monk Fang Zheng has seen Lord Yu, the poor monk has lost his welcome, I hope the Lord will forgive his sins."

Yu Fei smiled, looked at these dozens of martial arts monks who were first-class in the world, and said lightly:

"Master Fangzheng is polite, does the master know why this official is here?"

Fang Zheng's eyes shrank, and after bowing his head and chanting "Amitabha", he replied:

"The poor monk doesn't know, please let the adults say it clearly."

Yu Fei looked at Fang Zheng's attitude, and knew that this old monk was afraid that he wanted to resist death and deny it.

"Oh, Nan Shaolin participated in the rebellion, and Master Fangzheng, as the leader of Buddhism, didn't even know?"

"It's... My lord clearly checked, this Southern Shaolin and my Northern Shaolin have not been on good terms, and they really don't know about their affairs. ”

Yu Fei looked at Fang Zheng, who was still quibbling, and said with a sneer:

"Okay, this official originally wanted to give you a chance, since Master Fangzheng is unwilling to ask for it, then this official will go back to Beijing now to report to the saint, there are many people who destroyed Buddha in the previous dynasty, Emperor Taizu remembered the old and gave you a lot of privileges, you are still insufficient, hum..."

After finishing speaking, Yu Fei turned around and left, Fang Zheng's heart was shocked, and his eyes were full of murderous intent when he looked up at Yu Fei.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute."

Yu Fei didn't stop, and strode down the mountain.

"Abbot?"

Seeing Yu Fei leave decisively, an old monk couldn't help but shouted in a low voice.

Fang Zheng sighed, rushed to the front of Yu Fei in a few steps, knelt on the ground and saluted deeply:

"Wait a minute, the adults are confused, what do the adults say, Shaolin doesn't dare to say anything, just ask the adults to raise their noble hands and forgive."

Yu Fei looked at Fang Zheng, who was bowing in front of him, and sneered:

"Now you know?"

"The lord forgives the sin, and the poor monk knows."

Yu Fei nodded and said:

"Okay, now that you know, then you have to take responsibility as the leader of Buddhism, and many of the rebels who escaped from Southern Shaolin will be sent to the capital by the official, and the official will only wait for you for three months."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at the re-established Daxiong Treasure Hall, but it was even more brilliant than before.

After a pause, he continued to say coldly:

"And the Shaolin Temple is too big, there are too many people, the official doesn't like it very much, His Majesty won't like it, after doing this, if the Shaolin Temple is more than a hundred people, the official will take the army and personally come to ask the abbot to return to the customs, the abbot can understand?"

Fang Zheng's body trembled, and he raised his head and looked at Yu Feidao:

"Do you have to be like this, sir?"

Yu Fei lowered his head, looked at Fang Zheng's eyes and said:

"Master, your eyes tell you that you want to kill you, don't you?"

Fang Zheng hurriedly bowed his head and said:

"The poor monk doesn't dare."

Yu Fei straightened up, and said lightly:

"If you want to kill me, although you can try, the official is not discussing with you, but informing you, if you can't do it after three months, then the official will have to step on the rivers and lakes, the pros and cons, you think about it yourself."

After finishing speaking, Yu Fei ignored it, knelt on the ground and trembled Fangzheng, and strode towards the bottom of the mountain.

In fact, if it weren't for Zhu Houzhao's upcoming expedition, Yu Fei would actually want to rectify Buddhism again, but there are priorities and foreign enemies, so he can only let go a little.

......

After Yu Fei brought back the money and grain from Jiangnan, Zhu Houzhao's pro-conquest plan had already begun, and although Li Dongyang repeatedly opposed it, it still could not change Zhu Houzhao's determination.

When Yu Fei returned to the capital, it was already the end of May, and there were still two months before the farm, but less than a month before Zhu Houzhao's personal expedition.

This expedition was based on 15,000 new troops as the backbone, and then selected 35,000 elite Beijing battalions as minions, a total of 50,000 people as the main force of this expedition.

And the Liaodong direction will also send 50,000 troops to attack and harass from the side, so that it cannot take care of both the beginning and the end.

And Yu Fei returned to the capital, and before he could catch his breath, he was summoned into the palace by Zhu Houzhao.

When he followed the little eunuch to the Wuying Palace, Yu Fei found that there were already a lot of people inside, and Li Dongyang and other cabinet scholars and various ministers had already arrived.

After Yu Fei greeted everyone, he found a chair and sat down.

Before he sat down, Jiao Fang beside him whispered:

"Lord Yu's trip to the south of the Yangtze River is really a river of blood, and many people in the court are very dissatisfied with you."

After speaking, he glanced at Li Dongyang and the others.

Yu Fei smiled and said lightly:

"The lower officials have a clear conscience, and if they want to do things, they will inevitably offend people, everyone is dissatisfied, and there is nothing the lower officials can do."

Jiao Fang smiled, not saying more, just a mention is enough.

After a while, I saw Zhu Houzhao striding in from outside the hall, and everyone hurriedly got up and saluted.

"You gentlemen, don't be polite, please take a seat."

After everyone thanked them, they sat down in turn, and after Zhu Houzhao paced a few steps, he spoke:

"Gentlemen, I invite you to come, there are two things to discuss with you."

Everyone nodded and looked at Zhu Houzhao.

"The first thing is that after I set out on the expedition, the affairs of the DPRK and China will be handed over to the three gentlemen, and after the three gentlemen have discussed something, it can be handed over to the queen mother for decision."

Li Dongyang and the three of them stood up and saluted.

"The ministers dare not do their best."

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then continued:

"This second thing, it is also a family ugly, my two uncles rely on the queen mother's favor, and they are more domineering on weekdays, but now they dare to put their hands into the military quartermasters, what do you gentlemen say I should do?"

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say, the two marquis of the Zhang family had long been spoiled by the emperor, and they had done a lot of illegal things over the years, but now they suddenly wanted to deal with these two people.

Zhu Houzhao is probably a drunkard, and Li Dongyang is the first assistant, others can be silent, but he can't say nothing.

After a moment's hesitation, he asked tentatively:

"Why don't you leave it to the Three Law Divisions?"

Zhu Houzhao shook his head and said:

"It's not proper, it's not proper, I'm afraid the Queen Mother won't be able to get by."

"This..."

"Why don't you take the two Hou Ye out of the plug together, so that the two Hou Ye will know something about it in the future?"

Zhu Houzhao thought about it, nodded and said:

"Okay, just do it, Mr. Yu really knows me."

"It's also Mr. Hard, Mr. was summoned to the palace by me when he came back, and I really feel guilty."

Yu Fei hurriedly surrendered his hand.

"Your Majesty is serious."

Zhu Houzhao nodded, didn't say more, and began to discuss with everyone about sending troops.

It was not until the evening, after having eaten the imperial meal in the palace, that everyone was released from the palace.

And Yu Fei was also appointed as the governor of logistics.
