Chapter 27: The Buddha's Guidance
Yao Guangxiao grabbed a wooden fish beside him with his left hand, took the Buddhist beads around his neck with his right hand, and knelt cross-legged.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk-tok--" He tapped lightly without hurrying.
With the continuous sound of wooden fish, the original impetuous mood of everyone slowly calmed down and stabilized.
Yao Guangxiao's eyes were closed, and he turned the Buddha beads one by one.
Yuan Hui and Jin Zhong were silent and waited quietly.
I don't know how long it took.
Yao Guangxiao's right hand suddenly stopped, and the sound of the wooden fish disappeared at the same time.
He slowly opened his eyes: "I heard that in Jingshi, Xu Huizu said that the king of Gaoyang County 'is a scoundrel, not only will he not be loyal to the emperor, but he will also betray his father in the future, and he will definitely be a big disaster in the future'." ”
Yuan Jin and the two listened quietly.
"The so-called phase is born from the heart, and the Buddha crosses the --- with the Dharma"
"According to the poor monk, the king of Gaoyang County has ill intentions and different aspirations, so his face changes from heart to heart, and he is not a real king, just because he is greedy and wants to be the son of the world, so his ambition is exposed."
"Reasonable." Jin Zhong immediately said: "The king of Gaoyang County is wearing a snake skin, it can't be the true dragon emperor. ”
Yao Guangxiao continued: "The big war is coming, the king of Gaoyang County is brave and fierce, if the king of Yan wants to use him, he will definitely say some good things, but if he really wants to change the world in the future, the three of us, first of all, we can't agree." ”
"Yes." Yao Guangxiao said again: "The king of Gaoyang County is indeed treacherous, and he has to guard against it. ”
"The son of the world is kind, and he will be his opponent in the future."
"Master Daoyan rest assured, with me waiting, I can't be presumptuous by the King of Gaoyang." Yuan Hui and Jin Zhong expressed their positions one after another.
Yuan Jue sighed: "I hope I was wrong." ”
He doesn't look at people in his life, and he is not sure that he is nine times out of ten, and he has made mistakes before, so Yuan Heng didn't realize that he must be right, maybe he didn't even want to admit that he was right in his heart.
There was a sudden silence in the room.
After a few breaths, Yao Guangxiao said again: "The big event is coming, and we can't make extraneous branches for the time being." ”
"The internal unity is the first."
"I'll get it." The two spoke in unison.
The three of them talked again, and Yuan Heng and Jin Zhong said goodbye and left.
Not long after the two left, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Come in." Yao Guangxiao said in a low voice.
A young man who had just led a horse for him walked in, this person was his disciple, the law name Hui Is, and secretly had another identity, that is, Yuan Yi, the eldest son of Yuan Hui.
"Master."
"What did King Gaoyang do in Jingshi before leaving, do you say it again?"
"At the beginning of May, the king of Gaoyang County accidentally bumped into a little lady on the street, and later learned that it was Huang Zicheng's daughter, he was shocked and fled on the spot."
"Emperor Jianwen recruited Xu Huizu, Xu Zengshou, Wang Ning and others into the palace to --- suspicions"
This Yuan Yi seemed to be present in person, and everything that happened was like a treasure.
Except for Xu Zengshou's secret conversation when Zhu Gaoxu was writing, the rest was said.
Yao Guangxiao came to Beiping in the fifteenth year of Hongwu to follow Zhu Di, and for more than ten years, he has been secretly developing the espionage system, and he got acquainted with Zhu Di in the third year of Hongwu, and it is estimated that he has been doing this before.
So his spy network is really strong in this era.
Yao Guangxiao listened to it for the second time, and after listening, he said slowly: "I'm afraid that King Gaoyang met Huang Ying on the street, and it wasn't a chance encounter?" ”
Yuan Yi was a little unconvinced: "It is said that the king of Gaoyang County is not learned and has no skills, so he will have such a calculation?" ”
Yao Guangxiao's eyes lit up, could it be that there are also masters around him? "He went back to Beiping this time, but he was alone?"
"There are three more people in his house, Chen Wen, Zhou Hu, and Song Meng."
"How about the three?" Yao Guangxiao asked again.
"He asked Chen Wen to recruit troops, Zhou Hu was a pro-soldier for 100 households, and Song Meng was a sentry for 100 households."
What Zhu Gaoxu said in his mansion, Yuan Yiqing was clear.
Yuan Yi said again at this time: "It is said that Chen Wen has a good bearing and seems to be intelligent, and he may be the strategist of the king of Gaoyang County." ”
Yao Guangxiao thought for a moment and nodded: "Keep an eye on it, but don't disturb." ”
"Yes, Master."
After Yuan Yi went out, Yao Guangxiao picked up the Buddha beads in his hand again, he wanted to listen to the Buddha's guidance.
His beads are very strange, one has black spots on the left side and one has black spots on the right side.
He used it to distinguish between odd and double.
At this time, he closed his eyes again, picked up the wooden fish with one hand, and rolled the Buddha ball with the other.
"Tuk--Tuk--Tuk--" The sound of the wooden fish soon sounded in the tower again, and the Buddhist bead in his right hand rolled rapidly.
After only a while, even he couldn't remember which one in his hand was single and which one was double.
"Tu-tuk-tuk-tuk-" At this time, the wooden fish's voice became faster and faster, and he rolled faster and faster.
"Tuk." A sudden stop.
His gaze slowly fell.
"If it is single, it must be the prince of the prince?" Yao Guangxiao thought in his heart.
Look down.
Triangle eyes suddenly showed ecstasy.
I saw that the Buddha bead in my hand had a black dot on the left side.
This is Shan, sure enough, the prince is the prince.
Yao Guangxiao breathed a long sigh of relief, and hurriedly closed his hands: "Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha ---"
He was very happy in his heart, because the Buddha said that in the future, the son of the world will eventually become the prince, so there is nothing to do with Zhu Gaoxu.
It's a pity that he forgot that Yuan Jue obviously said that Zhu Gaoxu has the appearance of the Son of Heaven, not the Prince.
-------
Qingshou Temple is in the west of Beiping City, not far from Yanwang's Mansion, Yao Guangxiao stays here, and it is also convenient to discuss things with Yanwang.
There is a street in the east and west of the temple, but it is limited by the fact that Beiping is not a Jingshi now, so there are not many people on these two streets.
On its east street, there is a sundries shop, called Mao Ji, which has been open in Beiping for eight years, Mao Ji mainly sells salt, but also sells other goods.
The shopkeeper Mao Xiong is nearly forty years old, middle-aged, but he is strong and powerful, because he runs outside all the year round, in order to prevent theft and robbery, so he has a group of men, all of whom have practiced kung fu, and they are more fierce, which is also the predecessor of the salt owl in the future.
Many years ago, he had an uncle, who was the little banner guarded by the Yan Wangzhong, and died in battle, and his uncle had no queen in the family, so he wanted him to inherit the small banner at that time, but Mao Xiong didn't want to be a soldier.
Later, it was Qiu Fu who helped him find a way to sell salt for a living, which was regarded as King Yan placing a subordinate.
Zhu Di, the king of Yan, has always taken care of his old subordinates, which is also one of the reasons why his old subordinates in many places immediately welcomed peace after he raised his troops.
At first, Mao Xiong's salt was obtained from the Yan Wangfu, and then the Yan Wang's sons grew up, and Mao Xiong began to obtain it from the Junwang Mansion and the Shizi Mansion.
According to the regulations of the Ming Dynasty, the county king's mansion is 50 salt introductions every year, the prince is 100 yuan, and the prince's mansion is 2,000 salt quotations.
But Yan Wang Zhu Di does not follow the routine.
In the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu, not long after the death of the crown prince Zhu Biao, the king of Yan ordered that all salt in the vicinity of Beiping must be approved by the Yan Wangfu and the political envoy of Beiping before it can be sold or exchanged.
In fact, it is equivalent to occupying all the salt in several places near Beiping in disguise.
According to Zhu Gaoxu's current understanding, after Zhu Biao's death, Zhu Di already had a different kind of mind and began to find ways to hoard grain, grass and money.
Of course, Zhu Di did everything without leakage, and quickly distributed the relevant salt in place.
At that time, the political envoys of Beiping were all commanding envoys, and the three giants were all benefited, and later they were allowed to share some with their three sons.
On the surface, Zhu Di is for money and takes everyone to get rich together.
After this distribution, the salt quotation on Zhu Gaoxu's mansion reached 500 per year.
