Wei Wuwu is extremely filial, and invited the monks of Jueyin Temple, which has the most incense outside the eastern city of Liaodong, to recite the scriptures of 7749 days.

Because it was she who went to Jueyin Temple, the great monk Phuket was willing to deign to preside over this ceremony at the Xunguo Mansion. But no one expected that on the third night, Phuket would get a chance and hang up. According to the hexagram, there should be a catastrophe in the life of the grandfather, and it is best to bury the princess in the first seven, and ask the ancestors of the Wei family to take care of it, so as to protect the grandfather of the country.

Even for the sake of the living, Wei Wuwu felt deeply guilty. Without waiting for the Phuket monk to say the way to crack it, he made a big vow to build an old man's pagoda in Jueyin Temple, and donated 20,000 taels of incense and silver to make a 9981 dojo.

The abbot of Jueyin Temple, grateful for her kindness and benevolence, personally sent letters to various ancient temples and temples. There are also several bigwigs such as Feng Guowu and Yuan Zhanxun to support, plus Tianmen Mountain and Bodhi Gate also have their own fate. Therefore, in the end, all the monks sitting in the inner hall were enlightened monks, and even Phuket could only sit in the last seat in the inner hall. Ordinary monks can only do chores on the periphery.

Even if the monks who came from afar did not arrive on the first day, it was a grand occasion just because the abbots of several famous temples near Liaojing gathered.

Ten days after the ritual was carried out, the eminent monks gathered, and even the dignitaries and dignitaries of Liaojing brought their families and mouths. Officials below the third rank can't even mix the side halls of Jueyin Temple, so they can only set up tents in the open space outside Jueyin Temple. Ordinary people spread a straw mat farther away.

Seeing that there were too many people, she donated more silver, and the temple opened a porridge shed. She was told not to publicize that it was hers, but it didn't spread much.

For a time, tents and straw mats were lined up in a radius of five miles. Day and night are full of people. Liaojing is almost vacant.

After all, such a lineup is not something you can invite if you have money and power, who doesn't want to get a touch of blessing?

So the morning went up, and the lord of Dongping started playing with a calm face.

"Your Majesty, the Duke of Xun Guo is just a criminal minister now, and he can't even reach the second-rank officials, and the death of his wife is even more grand than the royal funeral, which is really unusual. What's more, such a trouble, hundreds of officials have no intention of political affairs, the people do not want to work, and the policy of conscription and protection of the northern border advocated by you has also been shelved. ”

These words made the already unhappy Great Zhou Emperor's face even more gloomy.

However, Yuwen Guangbo glanced at the county lord of Dongping meaningfully. He couldn't figure it out, she had always pretended to be gentle and modest, except for him, she had always been the image of a good person. Otherwise, His Majesty made an exception and let her take the place of the second emperor's uncle in the early dynasty, how could the courtiers have no objections. What's wrong with her today? Even if she was dissatisfied with Wei Wuwu, if she offended the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty like this, she would never say it before.

Emperor Da Zhou coughed, Yuwen Guangbo came back to his senses, and hurriedly went out of work and replied:

"Father, my sons don't think so! Although this ritual stems from Wei Wuwu's filial piety, she has already said that it is not only for the Duchess of Xunguo, as for those high monks, they are also invited by the abbot of Jueyin Temple, not her power. Now that the people are involved, it is rashly abolished, for fear that it will provoke the anger of the heavens and people. ”

"What are these words, the eldest prince? What is the anger of the heavens? Nawei is carefree and does not want to forge ahead, and it is just a matter of blindly striving for fame and fortune, does the eldest prince also think that serving the Taoist monk is more important than protecting the family and defending the country? The living do not seek to be motivated, crooked and heretical, and only blindly do things for the dead, the national disaster is at the head, the world is declining, and the people's hearts are scattered, how can it be rectified, does the prince want to see the decline of the national strength of the Great Zhou? ”

This time, without waiting for Yuwen Guangbo to refute, the courtiers stopped doing it, and the first one to stand up was the Zuo Cheng Xiang Gu Ke, the patriarch of the Three Dynasties.

"The lord of Dongping County said cautiously that the Great Zhou Dynasty governs the country with filial piety, filial piety to the elders, and what is wrong with caring for the ancestors? Where did the county lord see that the world was declining, the people's hearts were scattered, and the officials were not interested in political affairs? Could it be that in the early court every day, the courtiers were absent for no reason, or were the yamen neglecting their official duties? ”

"Father, there are only two months left for the Dharma at most, and even if the officials and people are a little distracted, it will not cause too serious consequences. What's more, the sons think that the people's hearts are what they want, just like the treatment of floods. What the imperial court should do is to guide correctly in the situation, rather than blindly chasing and intercepting it. The law of the Dongping county lord to stop it is really a policy. ”

"The eldest prince said easily, the people are going to worship the tablet, how to guide it?"

"Father, the son of the emperor implores the father to issue an order to order the monks of the Great Power Temple to go to the dojo to do things together."

"Is the guidance of the eldest prince to let the royal temple also help the abuse?"

The county lord of Dongping said indignantly. Emperor Da Zhou's face was not good-looking.

Yuwen Guangbo ignored the county lord of Dongping, and only saluted the Great Zhou Emperor again:

"Please send the prince to Jueyin Temple again, make offerings, and let him personally offer cards to the deceased border soldiers in the name of the royal family, and at the same time pray for the soldiers guarding the border pass, and then send the forbidden army to maintain order, and send condolences to the families of the soldiers guarding the border pass. After the end of the ritual here, my father issued another document ordering the local government to also express condolences to the families of the martyrs and border soldiers.

In this way, through this ceremony, let the people of the Great Zhou know that His Majesty is grateful to the soldiers guarding the border passes, so that the soldiers and their families of the border army have no worries, and people gather together to ignite the passion of defending the country and the country. ”

Gu Ke stood up at that time: "Your Majesty, the old minister seconded it." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, all the officials stood up one by one, all of them seconded the proposal, and no one objected. Emperor Zhou's face also eased a lot.

"Father, in the past few days, the military department has been playing, saying that all parts of the border pass are urgently urging the shortage of medicine, medicine, food, and salary. In terms of medicine and medicine alone, the official treasury is afraid that it will not last for two months. If there is a war in the north, how can this battle be fought?

Erchen found that the biggest thing he had done this year was the Caomutang. Their large medicinal fields account for almost half of the medicinal herb output, and the healers are even more proud of being able to make friends with the herb and wood hall.

If it is the strong support of Caomutang, and with a shout, the imperial court will no longer have to worry about these two sects.

But Taichangqing Xu Shiyu didn't know who gave him the guts, so he only used a suspicion as an excuse to search the grass and wood hall. The people didn't know that this was Xu Shiyu's personal behavior, and they thought that the court had no respect for the sages!

Although Erchen arrived in time, it did not cause too bad an impact. But after all, the people already have a bad impression in their hearts. And Wei Wuwu was suspicious for no reason, and he was even more afraid of being targeted again, so he could only close the grass and wood hall.

Father, on the occasion of all this, also asked his father to severely punish Xu Shiyu, and then send someone to appease Caomutang. I believe that with her heart of worrying about the country and the people, she will be able to change her mind. ”
