Chapter 28 When a man sits at home, evil comes from heaven
Which official who can sit in Zhongshu Province is not an old fox who has practiced for thousands of years?
Although they did not dare to easily inquire about the news from the palace, they also knew about the emperor's suppression of Longhu Mountain.
What is the status of Longhu Mountain in the former dynasty? The head of the Zhang family is the leader of Taoism, a great real person, a heavenly master, and a Taoist speaker.
The Huaxia family has been inherited to this day, and there is probably only the Confucian family in Qufu who can stabilize the Zhang family.
However, the Zhang family had an old relationship with the Son of Heaven, and was also dismounted by the emperor when the Ming Dynasty opened.
Li Shanchang's words were to remind these people present not to misunderstand what the emperor meant.
What the emperor suppressed was not the monks, not Longhu Mountain, but the remnants of the previous dynasty......
Just as the Zhang family of Longhushan enjoyed all the wealth in the previous dynasty, the Confucian family in Qufu was also extremely respected during the reign of the Mongols, and even Yan Shenggong also entered the court as an official.
If the emperor wants to clean up Zhang Normal, what about the Kong family?
The old fox present understood.
At this time, although the Ming Dynasty had been established, the war in the north was far from over.
The right minister of Zhongshu Province, the army of the great general Xu Da is still attacking in Shandong. Although the head of the Kong family is also a grass on the wall, he obviously does not see the overall situation of the world clearly.
Zhang Normal was before the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and he showed that he supported the emperor, but even so, he ran over and burned the incense stick, and was cleaned up by Lao Zhu.
Lao Zhang was at most a Taoist priest in charge of Taoism in the world in the previous dynasty, and the Yansheng Duke was not only a knighthood, but he was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites in the previous dynasty, even if the army of the Ming Dynasty is not far from Qufu, he is also a snake and rat at both ends, and has illusions about the Northern Yuan.
This kind of person, it's no wonder that the emperor doesn't clean it up.
Even if he is a descendant of Sage Kong, the emperor is destined not to do anything to him, but humiliation is definitely indispensable.
Everyone pondered and was shocked.
If it weren't for Li Shanchang's reminder, they did misunderstand the emperor's meaning.
"The old man thanked Zuo Xiang for reminding him!"
"When the left minister spoke, the old man suddenly opened!"
All the officials got up one after another to thank Li Shanchang, who squinted his eyes and gladly accepted everyone's praise.
"The old man said that these are not to show how much I can figure out the holy will, but to remind you that many of our officials in the Ming Dynasty were officials in the previous dynasty, and some things should be given up, don't learn from Qufu!"
Everyone trembled, thanked again, and accepted Li Shanchang's favor.
Li Shanchang liked this feeling of the stars holding the moon very much, and the holy decree that was passed back to him in his hand was meaningful.
"But then again, a person's background is very important, just like some people, no matter how strong his ability is, he will never become the most trusted person of His Majesty......!"
He didn't say who it was, but everyone in the room seemed to know who he was, so the old foxes lowered their eyebrows and didn't answer.
An unknown official surnamed Liu in the DPRK was again connected by Li Shanchang, the left minister.
Both of them are the emperor's henchmen, and they can't afford to mess with them.
Especially the left minister Li Shanchang in front of him, he is good at everything, and he is also a good ruler, the only drawback is that his heart is too small and he can't tolerate others.
Seeing that they didn't speak and didn't care, Li Shanchang read the contents of the holy decree again.
"Monks and monks are fasting, mixed men and women, eating and drinking, and violators are strictly punished."
Emperor Hongwu fell the butcher's knife on the monk's road faster than he imagined, Li Shanchang estimated that Zhang Tianshi, who burned incense, did not even return to Longhu Mountain, and the knife that slashed at the Buddha Dao had already chopped the head of the knife.
Since then, only one large Taoist temple and Buddhist temple have been left in each state capital and county, and all monks and Taoist priests have been gathered together for unified management.
And it is forbidden for them to "mingle with the people." To put it simply, everything is closed, don't run out and harm the people......
This knife is to cut off the roots of the two doors of Buddhism and Taoism, and it is also indirectly equivalent to the integration and management of the monks and Taoists in the world.
Li Shanchang seemed to have seen the despair of those monks and Taoists when they heard this order.
Because, in fact, this is no different from captivity.
However, in addition to this order, the emperor also opened an opening, allowing the direct descendants of Longhu Mountain to act cheaply, and specifically mentioned that Ying Tianfu was not subject to this prohibition for the time being.
In these details, they, the old foxes, could figure out the emperor's intentions a little.
The emperor cut off the hands and feet of Longhu Mountain with a knife, but he pretended to give them a pair of crutches.
"Legend has it that the child left by Zhang Normal was actually exiled by him, and that poor child turned out to be a victim of this fight! The water in the capital is deep, I hope this little heavenly master can survive, right? ”
Li Shanchang muttered to himself, this thought flashed through his mind, and then disappeared in a flash.
And the person he remembers, Zhang Yi, is still in the Taoist temple day after day, waiting for news from Huang Mu.
Huang Mu was nowhere to be found, and Longhu Mountain seemed to have broken off contact with Qingxinguan.
The location where Qingxinguan is located is originally remote, and Zhang Yi does not leave the house, and he does not know the ups and downs of the outside world.
A few days later, he waited for the emperor's reward.
The current emperor gave him 12 pieces of silver, a painless title, and help to repair the Taoist temple simply.
Since then, the palace seems to have forgotten his existence, and there is no reception, nor any action.
And just like that, more than a month passed.
Zhang Yi's life is very ordinary, every day when he gets up early, he will practice a period of Tai Chi learned in his previous life to move his muscles and bones.
It is not easy to survive in this world, the seven-year-old child is not fully grown, and he cannot do strenuous exercise, so Tai Chi is the best way.
After practicing boxing, Zhang Yi would tinker with alchemy in the room, although it was claimed to be alchemy, but in fact, it was still something that saved his life.
It's just that the Huang family's father and son promised him not to accept his materials, and even no one came.
Zhang Yi can't help but complain in ordinary days, the father and son are a little unrighteous, especially Huang Mu, this kid took the smallpox vaccine production method and left, but there was no news at all.
This incident made Zhang Yi feel more and more that the Huang family's father and son were a little unreliable, and he had no choice but to find another way to collect materials.
It's just that it's not easy, Deng Zhongxiu, who lives with him, is not familiar with life in the capital, and Deng Zhongxiu doesn't understand this kind of trade, although he also worked hard to collect some materials, but neither too much nor complete!
When Zhang Yi pondered whether he should go out with Deng Zhongxiu to find the materials he needed,
At this moment, outside, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
"Is the little real person of Longhu Mountain here?"
Although the Qingxinguan was rewarded by the emperor, the palace did not give a plaque, and the second did not publicize it, and the incense in the Taoist temple was almost equal to nothing!
And it is actually a very strange thing that someone came to the door of this Taoist temple.
Deng Zhongxiu opened the door and greeted the visitor with Zhang Yi.
When the other party entered the door, it was a servant who looked like a housekeeper.
He looked around, with a look of disgust, and then said to Zhang Yi:
"You are the proton of Longhu Mountain, come with me, my wife has something to look for you!"
"I don't know what?"
Before Zhang Yi could answer, Deng Zhongxiu stopped in front of Zhang Yi and asked.
"I am from Changfu, and I am ordered by my wife to let you go and do things for my little master!"
The servant's words made Zhang Yi's face look strange, Changfu, is it the Changfu he knows?
Before he could answer, Deng Zhongxiu had already refused for Zhang Yi:
"This eldest brother, my junior brother is still young......"
Before he could finish speaking, the servant had already punched him! Deng Zhongxiu was knocked to the ground.
