"Yuan Zhenren."

"Zhang Tianshi."

Seeing that Yuan Heng, who was carrying a huge wine gourd in front of him, was squatting in front of his mansion, the fat black man with a spring breeze instinctively tightened his heart.

It is an open secret that Yuan Heng and Dao Yan are close, these two old men of the same age have known each other for more than 30 years, when Yuan Heng was famous all over the world, Dao Yan was still a nameless monk, and now after the Battle of Jingyan, his reputation in the rivers and lakes is reversed.

But don't let the black-clothed prime minister ask Yuan Hui to come to him.

Zhang Yuchu had a kind smile on his face, and took two steps to salute.

"I don't know what happened when Yuan Zhenren came?"

Yuan Heng, who was dressed in sackcloth, stood up and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, it's just that the old monk Dao Yan said that he had an idea, and asked me to come to Zhang Tianshi to discuss and discuss the Heavenly Master also knows that Dao Yan has recently locked himself in the Great Heavenly Realm Temple for retreat, painting the ground as a prison, and if he doesn't understand it, he won't come out, and he won't be able to get out for a while." ”

The smile on Zhang Yuchu's face became more and more stiff, obviously unable to maintain it.

"Or, go in and say."

"Go in and say, but it's inconvenient outside." Yuan Jue then said.

Zhang Yuchu's heart sank more and more.

What is the matter, the black-clothed prime minister wants Yuan Heng to discuss with him? Could it be that he wants to cut off his own luck and take the matter of the 'fertilizer' elixir on the head of his Buddhism?

Treating others with himself, the more Zhang Yuchu thinks about it, the more likely it is.

Otherwise, why didn't you come to find yourself at this time, and didn't you come in person and let Yuan Heng come?

It must be that the old monk Daoyan still wants to be cheeky and doesn't want to tear his face directly, so Yuan Heng, who is both his old friend and the middleman of the Daomen, came to pass the word.

Damn, do you want to agree?

I don't want to agree, this is a revitalization opportunity that the Daomen finally mixed up, the elixir is all refined by our own hands, do you Buddhism know how to refine the pill?

Don't you want to agree to be useful? Although this matter is his own proposal, and he has also received the initial approval of the eldest prince Zhu Gaochi, the problem is that Dao Yan, the black-clothed prime minister, can go straight to heaven and find Zhu Di!

Zhang Yuchu took Yuan Jue into the mansion full of remorse.

The two Dao Tong and Qingfeng were squatting beside the few acres of sprouts and vegetable fields, amazed.

"What is this?"

Yuan Heng looked at the sprout vegetable field as if he had shaved his yin and yang head in surprise, and he hadn't turned the corner for a while.

Seeing Yuan Hui coming, Qingfeng and the others hurriedly got up to perform the disciple ceremony.

"Hello Yuan Zhenren!"

Yuan Hui returned the gift seriously, and did not despise the other party because he was a junior.

"So, what's going on?" Yuan Heng had already faintly thought of the source of the matter, "Could it be that this is the part of the 'fertilizer elixir' that you refined in Longhu Mountain?" ”

Zhang Yuchu looked at Yuan Heng's expression from indifferent to surprised to awakened, and said secretly in his heart: "Pretend, you continue to pretend, isn't it just to cause this topic?" ”

Qingfeng and the two Dao boys didn't know what was going on, they only knew that the master had refined a furnace of pills and brought them back, and told them that this was a matter explained by the emperor, and they must be planted separately.

"Ahem, ahem."

Zhang Yuchu coughed twice, feeling that today's incident could not be avoided, so he said frankly.

"That's right, don't hide it from Yuan Zhenren, the eldest prince and Xia Shangshu should be the same, and even grow better."

Yuan Heng nodded and said, "That's a surprise, but it's not strange."

Zhang Yuchu became alert and asked, "What does Yuan Zhenren mean by this?" ”

Yuan Heng said with a smile: "Jiang Xinghuo's actions are so amazing, and if he does anything shocking now, I am afraid that the old man will not be surprised." ”

"Today, Dao Yan asked me to find Zhang Tianshi, also because of a letter from Jiang Xinghuo."

Wait a minute.

The black fat man was a little confused.

Listening to Yuan Heng's meaning, it seems that he came here today not to snatch the auspicious merit of the fertilizer elixir for Daoyan, but because of another thing about "Jiang Xinghuo".

"Who is Jiang Xinghuo?"

Zhang Yuchu blurted out.

"Let's talk about it." Yuan Heng looked at Qingfeng and the two Dao Tong and said.

Zhang Yuchu came to his senses, this was a secret, so he nodded again and again, and the three disciples also consciously dispersed.

There was no one in the room, Zhang Yuchu earnestly asked.

"Yuan Zhenren, who is Jiang Xinghuo?"

Yuan Heng, who asked this question, didn't know how to answer it for a while, and Yuan Heng couldn't tell Zhang Yuchu about many things casually.

After all, for Zhu Di and them, Yuan Heng has not only known Dao Yan for many years, but also has a lot of connections with Zhu Di and others, so he is qualified to know some things, but Zhang Tianshi is different.

"It was the person who was in the edict prison that day, and instructed the refining of the fertilizer elixir on the spot."

Zhang Yuchu frowned slightly, and asked in a loud voice, "Where is the wild Taoist priest?" Why have I never heard of his name? What crime did you commit and you were imprisoned? ”

Yuan Hui was slightly stunned, and even though he knew that Zhang Yuchu had misunderstood, he explained.

"It's not a wild Taoist, it's an immortal!"

What?

When Zhang Tianshi heard this, he was stunned for a moment.

Immediately, he waved his hand again and again and said: "Yuan Zhenren, don't be joking, how can there be any immortals in this world?" ”

"No kidding."

Yuan Jue said seriously: "It's really an immortal. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yuchu's face also became solemn, and he asked in a deep voice, "Is what Yuan Zhenren said true?" ”

"Of course!"

Yuan Jue pointed to his eyes and said, "I've seen it with my secret method of physiognomy." ”

"The result?" Zhang Yuchu asked eagerly.

Yuan Heng's physiognomy is the first in the world, and the results of his appearance are almost infallible.

"The number of lives is like weaving, and the origin is like a stream."

Zhang Yuchu couldn't sit still at all, he stood up and said, "Yuan Zhenren is saying that his life is unpredictable, and his longevity is also unpredictable?" ”

Yuan Heng nodded and added, "Dao Yan has also counted it. ”

"What is the result of Master Daoyan's calculations?"

"No result, the Heavenly King Hall was half struck by lightning."

Zhang Yuchu was dumbfounded.

In any case, he didn't expect that the "immortals descending auspicious rui" that he casually uttered nonsense to collect credit for the Daomen could be true.

Zhang Yuchu was still incredulous, and only said: "Yuan Zhenren, how can there be immortals in this world?" Lu Zu is not an immortal! ”

"How do you explain that?"

Yuan Jue only said a few things about Jiang Xinghuo that he knew and could reveal to Zhang Yuchu.

"You mean, these things were brought up by Jiang Xinghuo?"

Zhang Tianshi felt that his worldview was a little collapsed, Longhu Mountain has cultivated immortals for generations, but he didn't know that there were actually no immortals in this world at all.

But today, Yuan Heng not only told himself that there were immortals in the world, but also appeared in front of them and did a series of incredible and incredible things.

As if it was the last straw that broke the camel's back, Yuan Jue took out a transcribed letter from his arms.

Yuan Heng shook out the letter paper from the envelope and handed it to Zhang Yuchu.

Metaphysical Critique of the 'Transcendental Theory of Human Nature'

Although Zhang Yuchu is the leader of the Daomen, he is also a famous Confucian in the world. Well, it's not that he can't join if he can't beat it, Zhang Tianshi's identity is destined to make him unable to join Confucianism, but this does not delay Zhang Tianshi from studying and understanding his opponent.

Therefore, after reading the letter in a hurry, Zhang Yuchu understood the precious value of this letter.

For anyone who wants to confront Cheng Zhu Lixue, who has become a complete and systematic study, the value of this letter can be called priceless.

This letter dug a hole in Cheng Zhu Lixue's most solid foundation, and then dug up a brick.

made Cheng Zhu Lixue, who originally seemed invincible and irreversible, become defeatable and overthrowable.

"This is also written by Jiang Xinghuo?"

Yuan Heng nodded, Zhang Yuchu was a little numb, but Yuan Heng was still giving him greater stimulation.

"Dao Yan entrusted me to come to you just to ask you if the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism want to join forces."

"Teaming up?" Zhang Yuchu almost jumped up in place: "What does Dao Yan want to do?" Is he crazy?! ”

"Overthrow the science of science and strive for greater living space for the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism."

Hearing Yuan Hui's words, Zhang Yuchu shook his head again and again, as if he was afraid of some fear engraved in his heart.

"Impossible!"

"Cheng Zhu Lixue has been established for hundreds of years, and I have studied it thoroughly, and it is impossible for this theory to be overturned!"

"And don't you know what it means to overturn this theory?"

"It represents the enemy of the world's readers!"

"Dao Yan can't afford it, and I can't afford it either!"

"The two families of Buddhism and Taoism can still survive now, if such an adventure like Zhang Liangbo's Langsha assassination of Qin fails, they will be retaliated by Confucianism to destroy the Tao and destroy the Buddha again!"

"It's not enough to rely on this little bit of human nature! In case there is no chance! ”

After quietly listening to Zhang Yuchu's almost roaring confession, Yuan Heng only said one sentence.

"Dao Yan said, Jiang Sheng knows more than that."

Zhang Yuchu frowned and asked, "What is the name of that prisoner in Dao Yanguan?" ”

"Jiang Sheng."

Before Zhang Yuchu could react, Yuan Heng's words hit his heart like a hammer after a hammer.

"Your Majesty, the eldest prince, the second prince, call him Mr. Jiang."

"Hatsuhara Yoshi, the head of the household, call him Jiang Shi."

"Cao Guogong Li Jinglong, call him called."

"Stop! I believed! Can't I believe it? ”

Zhang Yuchu clutched his chest and motioned to Yuan Hui to stop talking.

"I believe it, but the chance of overthrowing Cheng Zhu Lixue is too small, and there are not enough things in my hand now, and it is far from enough Jiang Xinghuo must come up with a complete set of new theories that can be completely refuted or can form a confrontation and are impeccable, otherwise, I would rather not be this Heavenly Master, and I would not let the thousand-year-old foundation of the Daomen be ruined."

Yuan Hui nodded, Zhang Yuchu, as the leader of the Daomen, it was normal for him to make this decision.

And this decision also revealed from the side that Zhang Yuchu had indeed been dissatisfied with Cheng Zhu Lixue's suppression of Buddhism for a long time.

This is not an isolated case, just like Dao Yan plans to debate with Cheng and Zhu, who can't talk back, why they should slander Buddhism, many people from Buddhism and Taoism are very dissatisfied with Cheng Zhu Lixue's suppression of Buddhism and Taoism in books and practical actions.

In the past, just because they didn't have the opportunity and didn't grasp it, it doesn't mean that they don't want to join forces to do big things.

Now that Zhang Tianshi's attitude is clear, Yuan Hui, as an intermediary, is not easy to force too much, and this matter can be regarded as a preliminary exchange of opinions.

As long as Jiang Xinghuo can put forward a new theory that will not fall behind against Cheng Zhu Lixue, the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism can join forces to fight against Cheng Zhu Lixue.

Of course, the difficulty of this can be imagined.

After all, Cheng Zhu Lixue is a set of theories that have been gradually constructed and perfected through unknown generations of Confucianism.

Relying on only one person, he intends to confront or even overthrow Cheng Zhu Lixue at the theoretical level.

Even a person like Zhang Yuchu, who is known as a "Daomen Shuoru", feels that he can't do it.

It is precisely because of the in-depth understanding of Cheng Zhu Lixue that we understand the extent to which Cheng Zhu Lixue's theory is impeccable.

However, Jiang Xinghuo's letter brought a glimmer of light after all.

I hope that the existence of this suspected immortal can really put forward a new set of theories to fight against the increasingly rigid Cheng Zhu Lixue.

Since the matter was preliminarily finalized, the two chatted about other things.

"You said that you proposed to use the fertilizer elixir as an auspicious fortune descended by the immortals?"

Yuan Heng is so keen, as soon as he thinks of Zhang Yuchu's reaction before, he knows that he doesn't know the existence of Jiang Xinghuo, so the so-called immortals are probably by mistake.

Zhang Yuchu smiled bitterly.

"Fortunately, Yuan Zhenren told me about this person, otherwise it would have been self-defeating."

"It's okay, I'm afraid that erecting a statue for Jiang Xianren is also something that His Majesty and the eldest prince are happy to see."

Yuan Hui continued: "Cheng Zhu Lixue is the fundamental logic of the Jiangnan gentry to grasp the right to speak, attacking Cheng Zhu Lixue is to crack down on the Jiangnan gentry, and the service service implemented by His Majesty is the prelude, and it is absolutely impossible to succeed in attacking Cheng Zhu Lixue, but Jiang Xinghuo is the only variable in the eyes of the big men. ”

"In other words, only by mastering the right to speak culturally, can the new emperor really feel that he can stand up to the soft knife of the literati and sit firmly on the throne, and this matter, with the vigor and resoluteness of the new emperor, is what the new emperor will definitely do."

Zhang Yuchu sighed: "It's really the wind from the dragon and the dragon meets the clouds, the wind and clouds meet, all of them are indispensable, nothing more than this." ”

Edict of Prison.

Jiang Xinghuo, who has rested for a few days, finally can't continue to fish tonight.

"Mr. Jiang, the results are out!!"

Zhu Gaoxu's wild laughter was deafening, and he took the key to open the door of Jiang Xinghuo's cell and woke Jiang Xinghuo up.

"What's the result?"

Jiang Xinghuo rubbed his eyes and turned around from the straw pile in a daze.

What catches your eye is a handful of yellow bean sprouts.

Li Jinglong, who was following behind Zhu Gaoxu, dared to guarantee that even if Zhu Gaochu was holding his pile of golden beans, he didn't have this expression.

After all, for Zhu Gaoxu, the golden beans are not much different from the gravel on the side of the road.

It will take a long time to pick up the scattered golden beans, and when he bends over for a while, I am afraid that his wealth has increased beyond the value of these golden beans.

Jing Nan fought for four years, and with the spoils of war alone, Zhu Gaoxu's personal wealth has long been unknown to what extent, not to mention the land and mansion in his name, I am afraid he can't remember how much.

However, it is different from the ecstatic Zhu Gaoxu and the joyful Li Jinglong.

"Oh."

Jiang Xinghuo, who had long been confident, was not surprised at all.

"Aren't you surprised, Mr. Jiang? The yield of sprouts has doubled! ”

Seeing that the other party had never seen the world, Jiang Xinghuo turned his head and wanted to fall asleep again, muttering.

"What is this, don't say that it is five per mu, even if there are no alien species, just the method that will be talked about tomorrow can increase the upper limit of the population that Daming can feed by three percent out of thin air."

Zhu Gaoxu and others automatically ignored the first half of the sentence, what is so unusual about the yield of 500 catties per mu, the Champa rice introduced since the Song Dynasty has already reached this yield level, and even because of localized improvement and intensive cultivation, it has far exceeded 500 catties.

What the two of them paid the most attention to was the second half of what Jiang Xinghuo said.

——The upper limit of the population that can be fed by Daming can be increased by 30% out of thin air!

This news made the two of them almost breathless!

Increasing the upper limit of the population that can be fed by 30%, what is the concept of the current Ming Empire?

It means increasing the taxes of one-third of the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time increasing the total reserve soldiers of the Ming Dynasty by one-third!

This is completely different from the increase in the number of clans.

The number of clans is the less the better for the country, and the smaller the number, the less money will be spent, because the clan is not a tax base but a burden.

And the increase in the effective population within the range that can be fed is the most valuable asset for the country!

The two of them just wanted to continue to ask, after all, this was the follow-up to the previous lesson, but Jiang Xinghuo had already fallen into a state of deep sleep.

Zhu Gaoxu was helpless, so he could only suppress the curiosity in his heart and retreated with Li Jinglong.

"Just now, I heard you right, right?"

"That's right." Li Jinglong nodded and said, "It's the way to make Daming increase the upper limit of the population that can be supported by thirty percent." ”

"Mr. Jiang is really amazing, not only has the magic formula of chemical fertilizer to increase food production, but also has a way to increase the upper limit of the population to be fed, or out of thin air, if someone told me like this before, I am afraid that I would have already pumped a mouthful, but now I am looking forward to it." Zhu Gaoxu sighed sincerely.

"We'll find out tomorrow."

Li Jinglong's face also showed a bit of anticipation.

Turn back to the main line tomorrow. Begging, asking for a monthly pass~
