The four servants in Luoyang City each have their own duties, and Gao Longzhi led the camp superintendent to preside over the city construction.

Zhao Yanshen told Gao Cheng everything he did after he went south.

In addition to wasting people's power and money to build temples on a large scale, there were no other mistakes and omissions, but this was enough to make Gao Cheng angry.

In order to be a good family, King Xiao Gao has been making careful calculations and living a miserable life.

The consumption of a southern expedition is like cutting a knife in his heart.

But what did Gao Longzhi do! He actually used his precious money and food to build a temple!

Gao Cheng decided to go to the home of the 400 relatives who died in battle first, and visited and investigated by the way.

"Yan Shen, I will keep your credit in my heart and will not bury it, but this matter cannot be reported by you, so as not to be hated by the high-ranking servants."

Zhao Yan felt Gao Cheng's love, but he didn't say much, just hurriedly retreated and returned to listen to the affairs of the Division.

He is diametrically opposed to Chen Yuankang, Chen Yuankang cries at every turn, and Zhao Yanshen is full of joy and anger.

Gao Cheng immediately called Cui Jishu, accompanied by him, and under the escort of Gao Jishi and his personal guards, he took dozens of truckloads of rice cloth out.

The fallen guards were buried outside the city of Xiangyang, and their bodies could not be brought back, at least for their families.

Gao Cheng visited one by one according to the list of relatives.

Every time I go to a household, parents, wives and children are all crying bitterly, and today's Gao Cheng is a plague god, spreading grief everywhere.

There are more people leaving, and Gao Cheng's mood is getting heavier and heavier.

This is a simple adobe house in Jianyangli, the family is so destitute that the woman learns of her husband's martyrdom, and she cries as if her heart is broken.

Gao Cheng panicked in his heart, in the final analysis, he didn't dare to bear the reputation of cowardice, and insisted on chasing, so he added 400 lives in vain.

The governor of Jianyang came to visit, but was sent away early, and the passers-by who had been watching recently were also driven away by the guards.

Gao Cheng squatted at the door without any scruples, looking at the lively Zongsheng Temple in the distance, his face became more and more gloomy.

After a while, the woman finally came out, supported by her only son.

It's still like a pear blossom with rain, but at least she's sane.

The woman was in her early twenties, but the child was already six years old, and this little boy made a deep impression on Gao Cheng.

When he learned of his father's death, his eyes were red and swollen, but he did not cry out loud, but just held back the tears in his eyes to comfort his mother.

"The concubine body hopes to donate the gift of the son to the temple, and pray that the soul of the deceased husband in the sky can be transcended."

The woman asked, wiping tears from her eyes.

Gao Cheng was silent for a long time and did not object.

He didn't bring much stuff today, but each household sent two horses of cloth and three stones of grain and rice.

After comforting the woman a few more words, Gao Cheng stroked the little boy's head and said to the woman:

"You are in the prime of life, I will not force you to keep the festival for your husband, you don't have to worry about your future livelihood, even if you remarry, there will never be a shortage of annual pensions, if someone is greedy for ink, you go straight to the Bohai Palace to find me.

"But there is one thing, this child's surname cannot be changed, he needs to preserve his bloodline for the deceased, whether he will study or join the army in the future, the Bohai Royal Mansion will make arrangements for him."

Gao Cheng could clearly feel the little head trembling under his palm.

The woman thanked herself and burst into tears again.

Gao Cheng said goodbye and left, but the little boy chased him out.

"I want to read!"

The little boy stopped Gao Cheng and said.

Gao Cheng smiled when he heard this:

"Discuss with your aunt and make a decision."

But the little boy said seriously:

"I have made a decision, I can't serve my mother in the army, if I die outside like my grandfather, how can my mother live?"

Gao Cheng couldn't laugh anymore, he said solemnly:

"Okay, you take care of your mother at home, wait for news, and I will arrange it in three days."

Gao Cheng looked at the figure of the little boy going back and asked Cui Jishu:

"What's the child's name?"

Cui Jishu hurriedly looked through the roster, and then replied:

"Xu Qian."

Gao Cheng thought about it carefully, it was not a historical figure he knew.

But it's rare for a six-year-old child to have this kind of insight.

Gao Cheng said to Cui Jishu:

"Heroic martyrs who have no heirs, you will preside over the search for heirs, and I will also leave the construction of the school house to you, and in three days, I want all the orphans to study in the schoolhouse."

Even if some people don't want to go to school in the future and want to join the army, it's good to know a few more words.

Cui Jishu did not hesitate and immediately received the order.

He, like Yang Su, is very reliable most of the time, and his ability is unquestionable.

After Gao Cheng explained, he left this matter behind, and only planned to wait for the school to be set up before going to inspect.

After passing through Zongshengli, the temple is staging a musical acrobatics, and the voices of the people are boiling, how can there be a little bit of pure appearance of Buddhism.

Gao Cheng also continued the condolence journey and distributed bereavement benefits.

Running around, he finally distributed all the pensions of the four hundred guards, not only inspected dozens of newly built temples by Gao Longzhi, but also saw the prosperity of Buddhism in Luoyang along the way.

Back in the house, Gao Cheng pillowed on Erzhu Ying'e's lap, unable to calm down for a long time.

In Jianyang, there are only more than 2,000 households, but there are ten temples such as Yingluo, Charity, Huihe, Tongjue, Huixuan, Zongsheng, Weichang, Xiping, Chongzhen, and Cause and Effect, and there are a total of 220 miles in Luoyang City.

Recalling that the woman wanted to offer the bereavement to the temple in exchange for the peace of her deceased husband's soul, Gao Cheng felt that there were some things that could not be delayed any longer.

After Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty destroyed Buddhism, Buddhism, which had been in decline, developed rapidly in the middle and late Northern Wei Dynasty.

From the seventeenth year of Emperor Xiaowen (493) to the second year of Taichang (533), in just forty years, more than 1,300 temples were built in Luoyang, and the monks and nuns were countless.

According to Gao Cheng's knowledge, after Gao Huan moved the capital to Yecheng in history, there were more than 4,000 temples in Yecheng, and by the time the Northern Qi Dynasty was founded, there were more than 2 million monks and nuns in the country, accounting for one-tenth of the population.

In the future, Buddhism reached its peak in Yecheng, and it was not the fault of Gao Long, who was the general of the camp at the time and was responsible for increasing the number of Yecheng.

But the thought that in the future there will be one-tenth of the population who will not produce and pay taxes, this makes Gao Cheng, who has always been careful and small-minded, have a soaring blood pressure, and he is almost about to have a cerebral hemorrhage.

Gao Cheng didn't care that the night was dark, and he couldn't wait to call Gao Jishi over, and he led the guards to escort him to Gao Long's mansion.

"Could it be that the prince visited late at night, could something big happen?"

Gao Longzhi personally went out of the house to greet him, and wondered.

"Lieutenant General Gao has a disaster, Cheng Te has come to inform."

Gao Cheng was not in a hurry to enter the door and replied.

Gao Longzhi's face changed, he pondered for a long time, and he never thought of what he had done wrong, so he asked:

"Please also elaborate on the son."

"If it is undecided today, there are many military affairs, and there are many wars, and money and food are important, and the high-ranking servants are appointed as camp supervisors, but they embezzle their property and build temples on a large scale, once this matter is known to his father, what should he do?

"Even if the servants work hard and work hard, the father must also severely punish the servants, otherwise everyone will follow suit, and how can there be money and food to support the army."
