Li Chunfeng put his luggage in the house, and there was no Taoist courtyard in the village, but he could live in Lishan.

Yuan Tiangang stroked his beard and said: "Actually, the old man saw Zheng Gong when he came. ”

Zhang Yang asked, "How is Zheng Gong?" ”

Yuan Tiangang took a chair from the courtyard and sat down, and said with a smile: "Gong Zheng has too many things to worry about, and his old man is very worried about Your Majesty. ”

"What does Zheng Gong mean?"

Yuan Tiangang sighed: "In the past, Your Majesty still had many concerns, but now that Your Majesty has a firearm, it is Zheng Gong who is most worried." ”

"Are you worried that Your Majesty will get out of control?"

Yuan Tiangang smiled: "It turns out that you also thought of it." ”

Another group of children ran past in front of him laughing, and Yuan Tiangang said: "Lishan is the most beautiful blessed land in the world. ”

Zhang Yang replied: "The greater the emperor's power, the easier it is to get out of control. ”

Yuan Tiangang bowed his head and said: "I can't understand the affairs of the court, and Zheng Gong's worries have his own reasons. ”

Zhang Yang said again: "Can Daoist Yuan teach our students the star calendar?" ”

"Well, will they be able to comprehend?"

"I plan to open another study house in the Institute of Technology, the study house teaches not for the career, to teach the most basic and simple knowledge, a six-year-old child begins to read, from the age of the first child to lay the foundation of mathematics for them, a total of six years, twelve years old children can graduate."

"Daochang Yuan can teach the knowledge of the star calendar to the children little by little."

Li Chunfeng and Li Tai were still busy in the courtyard.

Yuan Tiangang hesitated for a long time and did not agree immediately.

Zhang Yang said again: "If Daoist Yuan doesn't agree, I won't force it." ”

"Well, even if you don't agree, you can teach the children." Yuan Tiangang looked at the blue sky.

Zhang Yang also looked up at the sky, he couldn't get tired of seeing the clean sky, if it was night, he might be able to see the stars in the sky.

"Daddy often stopped and looked at the starry sky and didn't move."

I don't know when, my daughter appeared by her side, Zhang Yang stroked her hair bun and said, "Don't tell outsiders about things at home in the future." ”

Xiao Qingqing nodded obediently, "Well, my daughter won't talk about it after that." ”

"Poor Dao has read the yellow calendar compiled by you and Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the mystery of the sun, moon and stars cannot be hidden from the world, so don't worry! Poor Dao promised you. ”

Zhang Yang arched his hand and said, "Then there is Daoist Lao Yuan." ”

"Your knowledge in Lishan is different from the outside world." Yuan Tiangang looked at Xiao Qingqing and said in a low voice: "Even if this kid is not a disciple of the poor Dao, you will pass on your skills to her." ”

Old Daoist Yuan Tiangang sighed, his eyes a little more lonely.

Zhang Yang smiled: "You should rest first." ”

"Well, the attainments of this life have come to an end, you and Her Royal Highness the princess are still young, don't waste it."

"Daoist Yuan's advice will be taken to heart in the future."

In the fourteenth year of Zhenguan, His Majesty of the Tang Dynasty often went to the country to move around, vigorously expanding the teaching career, after the fall of the giant whale of the family, the Tang Emperor recruited the world's famous Confucianism as an official, and the students could pass through it to enter the first office, and the worst could also become the supplement official of the Tang Dynasty.

And expand the study house, in the twelve counties of Chang'an City to establish more than 1,200 study houses.

Since the birth of Lishan poems, 300 poems spread throughout the Central Plains, since the Red Chamber and Liang Zhu, this is one of the few books in Lishan, the emperor gave the name: Zhenguan Poetry Collection.

As the center of power, Chang'an City is showing its centripetal force to the Central Plains.

Students from Goryeo, Baekje, Silla, Gochang, and Tubo entered the Sifang Pavilion to study, and if they succeeded, they could enter the country.

These envoys praised the Heavenly Khan, and they needed to swear an oath to the Suzaku Gate when they entered the Sifang Pavilion, and from then on they would be loyal to the Tang Dynasty, such as the snow-capped mountains that have not changed for thousands of years, and such as the Tianshan Mountains that have not moved between heaven and earth.

This is Zhang Da'an's obedience to Lishan's arrangement, and the rules formulated by Zhang Da'an are all sworn allegiance to the Tang Dynasty by the children of the Western Regions who have entered Chang'an City to study.

His Majesty ordered Kong Yingda to write the "Five Classics of Justice" to teach for training, and since then the Tang Dynasty has official books and books that can be passed on.

This Pentateuch was sent to Lishan and printed under the rudimentary industrial machinery of Lishan.

The engraving in the palace has not yet been engraved, and Chang'an City has printed more than 100 volumes in one day, and more than 1,000 volumes of the Five Classics of Justice have been printed in two months.

His Majesty gave Lishan a plaque, calling Lishan a sharp weapon for the construction of the community.

On this day, a monk came to Lishan, this monk's name is Fa Lin, and this is an old monk who is nearly sixty years old.

During the Wude period, Li Yuan issued an edict to the monks of Shatai Temple, only leaving three thousand monks in Chang'an, and the rest of the temples released the monks to their hometowns.

At that time, there were also Taoist priests Li Zhongqing and Liu Jinxi, who wrote ten different and nine mystical theories and manifest righteousness to defend Buddhism.

Today, Monk Fa Lin came to Lishan Village with a bamboo basket on his back and a cane, and the little monk who helped him explained his intention to the guards here.

At the beginning, Monk Huikuang and Cui Renshi did not come to Lishan, and Fa Lin would not have come to Lishan from afar.

Monk Falin said in a low voice: "The poor monk still has a letter from the deceased to be handed over to the Marquis of Lishan County. ”

The guards went to pass the word, Zhang Yang was playing cards with Yuan Tiangang and Li Tai.

Daoist Li Chunfeng didn't like this kind of game, and he preferred to teach at the Technical Academy.

In the middle of winter, the weather is gloomy and about to snow, "County Marquis, His Royal Highness the King of Wei, there is a monk who asks to see." ”

Li Tai sorted out the cards in his hand and said, "We have never welcomed monks in Lishan. ”

The guard said, "That monk calls himself Fa Lin. ”

"Huh?" Li Tai suddenly said: "This monk is still alive?" ”

Zhang Yang put down the cards in his hand, "Let's go and meet them." ”

Li Tai hurriedly said, "This king will also go." ”

Yuan Tiangang sighed: "I'm afraid I'm going to die again this year." ”

After that, the old Taoist chief packed up his cards and went to play cards with the king of Hejian County.

This year's winter was very cold, and the northwest wind was howling in the beginning of winter, Zhang Yang and Li Tai came to the entrance of the village and met the monk Falin.

Li Tai was very conflicted in his heart, the outside world had said that Lishan had always been an enemy of Buddhism.

But there are still monks who come to see him.

Zhang Yang looked at this old monk, and said lightly as soon as they met: "There was also an old monk who came to see me before, and then he died. ”

Farin's figure was not thin, her gray beard swayed in the wind, and her monk's robe moved with the wind.

He tapped the ground with the cane in his hand, and the old voice said slowly: "Hui Kuang is too obsessed. ”

Zhang Yang put his hands behind his back, "Is there anything wrong with you coming to see me?" ”

Fa Lin handed over a roll of paper, and said: "Actually, the poor monk came to Chang'an City this time to see His Majesty. ”

Zhang Yang took the paper, the paper is very thin, and the rice paper is used, "Few people are still using rice paper that is too expensive." ”

Fallin said in a low voice: "He is an old-fashioned person, although Lishan's paper is cheap and easy to use, and many people love Lishan paper, but he is different. ”

Looking at the handwriting on the paper, it is written that he has traveled many places recently, from Hedong to Hebei, and now to Bohai.

The letter was written by Cui Renshi, and this old man is now traveling everywhere, which is very pleasant.

Monk Fa Lin said in a low voice: "When I first saw Master Cui Ren, I heard him talk about Lishan, in fact, the poor monk also wanted to ask a word, what made the county marquis so persistent?" ”

Seeing that the letter was full of his observations and experiences, and talking about the progress of the current Datang Dynasty's teaching policy, Zhang Yang put the letter away and replied: "Haven't you Buddhism always wanted to save the world?" By the way, you don't believe in this life. ”

Fallin arched her hand and said, "Is the county marquis making fun of the poor monk? In fact, the poor monk did not agree with Xuanzang's opinion, when he wanted to go west, the poor monk was against it. ”

"These things have nothing to do with me."

Fa Lin said: "These things really have nothing to do with the county marquis, the county marquis wants to build Guanzhong, and he wants to control the manpower in Guanzhong, and the ideal of the county marquis is much higher than that of Xuanzang in the poor monks." ”

"I have no intention of comparing myself to others."

Fa Lin recited the Buddha's name, and said slowly: "The world can't compare with the county marquis, and now the county marquis can tell the poor monks, what is Cui Renshi's doubts, and what makes the county marquis so persistent?" ”

"The poor monks saw the results of the family back then, and they will have this day sooner or later, but Cui Renshi doesn't understand, the county marquis gave the court and the central government to help and disperse all the family wealth, but also to support the teaching, or to build Guanzhong?"

Zhang Yang sighed: "The world laughs at me for being too crazy, and I laugh at others who can't see through it." ”

Fallin frowned, "That's not the reason. ”

"Because I am upright, my faith is firm, and my heart is bright."

"Is that all?" Fallin whispered.

"That's right, that's all."

The old monk kept shaking his head, recited the Buddha's name again, and said in a low voice: "The poor monk still hasn't seen the true face of Lishan. ”

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "I firmly believe that knowledge can change fate and transform the world, which is the true face of Lishan." ”

The old monk was silent, he closed his eyes as if he was thinking.

Zhang Yang continued: "Old monk, you don't know how far knowledge can change a person, knowledge can make people reborn. ”

"Because the poor monk hasn't seen it?"

"Yes, you haven't seen it, but I've seen it and experienced it."

Farin's old voice came again, with a little weakness in the vicissitudes of life, and said: "But the poor monk has never seen it, so where does the county marquis start?" ”

"Well, the county marquis is indeed different from others, the county marquis's views and ambitions are different from others, Cui Renshi doesn't understand because he is a child of a family, and the children of the family are also knowledgeable, but they are all pedantic."

"Now the poor monk understands a little, the county marquis is not an immortal, but the county marquis is a disciple of an immortal."

Fallin continued: "As for what kind of immortal is the teacher of the county marquis? Is there really such a person? ”

Zhang Yang said slowly: "I was born in a very barren mountain village, and it was my teacher who changed me. ”

"Well, the poor monk understands, and now he can go to Chang'an City."

The old monk turned to look at Chang'an City, his eyes were a little confused, and he walked away with a slow pace.

Li Tai said curiously: "Daoist Yuan said that he was going to die." ”

"He's babbling again?"

"The king doesn't understand either."

Monk Fa Lin went to Chang'an City, and he wanted to ask for an explanation for the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism that year.

A month later, on Lishan, the couple was taking their son and daughter to build the bell tower of Lishan as a family.

Xiao Sanqiu, the child was still in swaddling clothes, he slept in Aunt Yang's arms, and he slept sweetly in winter.

"Well, it's been a long time since I've built a house with my husband." Li Yue helped build the wall.

"Proper labor helps your body recover." Zhang Yang put the sorted stones aside.

Careful Ann likes to mix mud, and he mixes different proportions of mortar with yellow mud, which can be used to paint walls.

Xiao Qingqing rode over on a bear, "Dad, Monk Falin has been exiled. ”

The movement in Zhang Yang's hand stopped, remembered Yuan Tiangang's words before, and said, "It's going to snow again, let's stop here today." ”

Li Yue also nodded, "Well, let's go home." ”

When it was about to fall into the night, snow fell in Guanzhong, knowing that the prince was leaving the palace today and coming to Lishan to take care of the emperor's daily life.

Li Tai personally sent someone to pick up the old man to Lishan.

The prince is a lot older, and he said in his heart that he would take care of the emperor, and he couldn't tell who would take care of whom.

Li Tai first arranged for the prince to stay, and the heavy snow was freezing in the sky, so he had to wait for dawn to talk about everything.

The next morning, it was still snowing in Guanzhong.

Zhang Yang brought a basket of salted duck eggs to see the prince.

The old eunuch lived in a side house of Li Yuan's mansion.

The Emperor Taishang was going to find Sun Simiao and them to do Tai Chi early in the morning, and the prince sat in the room, sitting cross-legged, motionless as if he was meditating.

Zhang Yang put the basket down, took the kettle from the stove again, replaced it with a pot of cold water, and put it back on.

"I wanted you to come to Lishan at the beginning."

"The old slave listened to His Majesty's will and came to Lishan to take care of the Emperor."

Zhang Yang replied: "Actually, the Emperor doesn't need you to take care of it, there are some things in Lishan that need your help recently." ”

"The old slave is just here to take care of the emperor."

"It's okay, it's good that you're retiring in Lishan."

The prince opened his eyes and smiled: "I thought that the county marquis would come to ask the old slave about the monk Nafarin." ”

Zhang Yang bowed his head and said, "He came to see me before he went to Chang'an City. ”

"Well, it is rumored in Chang'an City that the monks who have come to Lishan will not end well."

Zhang Yang took a sip of tea with a tangled expression.

Wang Gonggong talked about what happened to the monk Fa Lin in Chang'an City, and the old monk handed the emperor a dialectical article, mainly to refute the theory of the controversy between Buddhism and Taoism.

Later, because the Taoist priest Qin Shiying was accused of slandering the emperor, he admonished the emperor and dealt with the monk Farin for the crime.

The prince drank tea and said: "Actually, the monk Farin is a capital crime, and His Majesty changed it to exile, because he came to see the county marquis before he went to Chang'an City, and there are rumors in Chang'an that the monks who have come to Lishan will not end well, and persuade the monks in the world to stay away from Lishan." ”

Wang Gonggong smiled, this time his smile was much easier, "In the old slave's view, Monk Falin will not have a good end, Qin Shiying will not have an end, and people like him are not far from death." ”

"You've seen a lot of things in the court and the harem, since you said that this person didn't end up, it must be good."

"Well, the county marquis laughed."

Zhang Yang will pick up the clay cup on the table and put it in his old man's hand, "Since you have come to Lishan, you will have a good rest and recuperate." ”

"Thank you, county."

"We have a rule of physical examination in Lishan, and Doctor Sun asks the doctor to give the villagers a physical examination every year, mostly to diagnose the pulse and inquire, you can also go and see it."
